I summoned all the famous generals of history in another world.

Chapter 376 Undercurrents

"Gentlemen, the imperial army is now pressing on our borders. Although our Yellow Turban Army is brave, we still need a valiant general to lead the army to meet the enemy."

"I intend to promote General Yuchi Wuwei. He is a master of martial arts and will surely lead our army to a great victory."

Seeing so many people feigning death when it was time to exert themselves, Meng Zhang's booming voice broke the silence in the tent.

"snort!"

"Is Commander Meng trying to weaken our power in the army so that you can become the sole ruler?"

Before the words were finished, a man dressed in a black robe with a sinister face spoke in a cold voice.

This person is a representative of "Shadow Pavilion," one of the masterminds behind the scenes.

His words revealed a strong hostility, clearly indicating his dissatisfaction with Meng Zhang's proposal to put forward Yuchi Wuwei.

"Your Excellency is mistaken. This commander is solely devoted to the public good; how could I possibly have any selfish motives?"

"General Yuchi Wuwei's martial prowess is evident to all. If he were to join the battle, wouldn't that be like adding wings to a tiger for our Yellow Turban Army?"

Meng Zhang smiled slightly, his expression calm and composed.

"Commander Meng is right, but while General Yuchi is indeed brave, Niu Mo in our army is no ordinary man either."

"Why didn't Commander Meng recommend Niu Mo to play?"

Another representative, dressed in white robes, the ethereal and otherworldly young master of the "Yunyan Sect," chimed in.

A glint of light flashed in Meng Zhang's eyes, knowing that these behind-the-scenes manipulators were all coveting the Bull Demon King under his command.

"Gentlemen, this battle against the imperial army is a matter of life and death for our Yellow Turban Army. How could I, the commander, treat it lightly?"

"The reason why I didn't recommend Niu Mo to fight is actually because I had my own difficulties."

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Meng Zhang remained calm and composed. He stroked his long beard and spoke in a steady and powerful voice.

"In today's small-scale skirmish between our army and the enemy, Niu Mo's son, Red Boy, fought bravely, but has unfortunately been seriously wounded and is on the verge of death."

"Niu Mo is heartbroken and desperate for his son. He is in very poor condition and is not fit to fight."

He paused, then continued.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

They naturally knew Red Boy's position in the Yellow Turban Army, and they also understood the deep father-son bond between Niu Mo and Red Boy.

Meng Zhang's words provided a reasonable explanation.

"Commander Meng, is this true? Why haven't we heard anything about Red Boy being seriously injured and on the verge of death?"

However, Mo Han, the representative of the "Shadow Pavilion," sneered and questioned.

"Brother Mo Han, this is absolutely true. After Hong Hai'er was injured, I have been secretly treating him, for fear of affecting the morale of the army."

"If you don't believe me, you can check it out."

Meng Zhang frowned slightly, but remained calm.

"Therefore, Niu Mo is indeed a major fighting force in our army. However, the imperial army we are facing this time is no small matter, and I believe that General Yuchi is more suitable to take on the role of commander."

"Of course, if any of you have better candidates, feel free to bring them up for discussion."

Meng Zhang paused for a moment, then continued.

At this moment, a woman in green gracefully rose to her feet; she was Lü Qi, the messenger of "Bi Bo Tan".

"General Meng, I have something to say, but I'm not sure if I should."

Her voice was as melodious as a nightingale's song.

"Please speak freely, Miss Lüqi."

Meng Zhang nodded in agreement.

"In my opinion, both General Yuchi and Niu Mo are rare and fierce generals. However, this battle is related to the great plan of our Yellow Turban Army, so the selection of generals must be done with utmost care."

"I wonder if Commander Meng has a foolproof plan?"

Green Qi's words were sincere and earnest—an exclusive! A behind-the-scenes interview with Hibiscus in White and the creation of "I Summon Famous Generals of All History in Another World," exclusively for Cola Novels. Her gaze revealed trust and expectation for Meng Zhang.

Meng Zhang secretly admired Lü Qi's wit and tact. Her words not only expressed her concern for the battle situation but also cleverly probed his plans.

"I am confident, but I need your full support to succeed."

He took a deep breath and said seriously.

Upon hearing this, the tent fell silent, and all eyes were fixed on Meng Zhang.

"The Cangzhou army has come with great force this time, but we are not unprepared. I have reached a consensus with several generals in the Daqian army behind the Cangzhou army."

"He will lead his troops to launch a surprise attack on the enemy's main camp from the rear, while we will set up an ambush here. When the enemy is in a panic, we will launch a surprise attack and surely win a great victory."

Meng Zhang looked around and continued.

"Commander Meng, you've got a clever plan! But who are these generals of the Great Qian army? Why were they nowhere to be seen before?"

"If he breaks his promise, won't we be attacked from both sides?"

Mo Han sneered upon hearing this.

"Brother Mo Han, you are overthinking it. These generals are all heroes of our time, with outstanding reputations. Since they have agreed to join forces with us, they will never break their promise."

"Moreover, the key to this operation lies in whether we can unite as one to fight the enemy. If you still have doubts, then I will not force you."

Meng Zhang's expression remained unchanged. "You're such a chatterbox!"

When the fight breaks out later, I'll chop you up first!

"Commander Meng is absolutely right. At this moment, we should put aside our prejudices and unite to fight the enemy. We are willing to fully support Commander Meng's plan."

A man in fine clothes stood up and cupped his hands in greeting.

"Bibo Pool also supports Commander Meng's plan. May our Yellow Turban Army reach new heights after this battle."

Seeing this, Mo Han said no more, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Meng Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and drank with the others to discuss the matter.

After several rounds of drinks, Meng Zhang excused himself from the banquet, leaving the others inside the tent to continue drinking and making merry.

Although the meeting appeared amicable on the surface, undercurrents were surging beneath.

However, this is exactly the result he wanted.

Only by making these people check and balance each other and fight each other can he sit back and control the fate of the entire Yellow Turban Army.

As night deepened, the lights in the Yellow Turban camp gradually went out.

But within this darkness, countless eyes are watching everything around them, awaiting the coming storm.

Meng Zhang stood outside the tent, gazing at the starry sky, already having made his plans.

This game has only just begun...

The moon hung high in the sky, the stars twinkled, and the night was deep, yet the lights inside the Cangzhou army camp remained bright.

Meanwhile, in the distant Cangzhou army, Su Ye was also closely monitoring the movements of the Yellow Turban Army.

His intelligence network had already taken full account of everything within the Yellow Turban camp.

Inside the main tent, Su Ye sat alone at his desk, his eyes blazing, toying with two letters in his hand, his mind racing.

A letter, written in elegant handwriting, came from Meng Zhang, the Yellow Turban commander-in-chief, who was on the other side.

Meng Zhang frankly admitted that he had planted several generals as spies in the rear of the Cangzhou army and even in the Daqian army.

Surprisingly, these generals were not secretly recruited by him.

Instead, they surrendered voluntarily, intending to help the Yellow Turbans conquer Luzhou and advance directly towards Qianzhou.

This news was like a thunderbolt to Su Ye, shaking him to his core.
