Chapter 1290: You are pitting yourself

"bite!"

Just when Wu Fan was comforting the eldest prince, a familiar mechanical voice suddenly came to his ears. This sudden sound made Wu Fan slightly startled.

"Why was the mission triggered at this time?" Wu Fan was slightly surprised.

He was very familiar with this voice, but he didn't expect that it could trigger the mission now.

"Ding: Trigger a random mission: help the eldest prince Yelu Honglin of the Shuiyue Kingdom solve his current troubles. The mission is successful: a summoning token will be rewarded, and his status in Yelu Honglin's heart will be increased. The mission failed: his status in Yelu Honglin's heart will be reduced. He will be deprived of his position as the eunuch in charge of Donglin Palace, and at the same time, he will be expelled from the palace of Shuiyue Kingdom and will not be allowed to enter again within one month."

"Ding: The task is automatically accepted."

Continuous mechanical sounds sounded in Wu Fan's mind, and indeed a task was triggered. However, this time it was not a chain task, but a random task.

Judging from the rewards and punishments of the task, this task is not too important. Wu Fan already has a lot of summoning tokens. Killing the BOSS also has the possibility of exploding summoning tokens. Therefore, Wu Fan is not too eager for summoning tokens. .

As for his status in the heart of the eldest prince Yelu Honglin, Wu Fan didn't care even more. After he killed Yelu Hongfei, he would leave Shuiyue Kingdom. At that time, who would care about what Yelu Honglin thought of him?

However, being expelled from the palace and unable to enter again within a month was a bit troublesome. His mission of killing Yelu Hongfei was not completed yet.

At this time, Wu Fan still didn't know that Yelu Hongfei was not in the palace.

"I actually accepted this mission automatically. It's too overbearing. However, I don't have to think about whether I should accept it or not?" Wu Fan muttered in his heart.

"Your Highness, I see that you look a little gloomy. Did something unpleasant happen in the palace just now?" Now that the task has been accepted, Wu Fan naturally wants to try to complete it.

"That's right." Yelu Honglin said: "We, Shuiyue Kingdom, are discussing an alliance with Tianji Kingdom, and both countries are vying for the position of commander."

Wu Fan pretended to hear it for the first time and said, "An alliance between the two countries? This is a big deal."

"This is natural." Yelu Honglin said: "This matter is actually not a secret. The purpose of forming an alliance is to deal with the Yanfeng Kingdom. Once the war really breaks out, the position of this commander will be very important."

"Your Highness is right." Wu Fan nodded and said, "It is essential to be on guard against others."

"That's it." Yelu Honglin said: "Now the two countries are not giving in to each other on the matter of commanders, and they have been unable to reach an agreement on the alliance. Just now, my father asked me if there is any way to start from I thought about it for a long time to seize the position of commander from Tianji Kingdom, but I couldn't think of any way. My father seemed to be even more disappointed in me. "

"Your Highness is not to blame for this." Wu Fan said: "That position is too important, and Tianji Kingdom cannot give it up."

"That's right, even if the second prince is here, he can think of a solution? Father is just biased against me!" Yelu Honglin said angrily. Now in front of Wu Fan, he seems to be less and less able to hide his true thoughts. .

"Your Highness, we don't have to fight for that position." Wu Fan said.

"This is absolutely not possible!" Yelu Honglin said categorically: "Although I don't know much about military affairs, I also know that on the battlefield, the commander can decide the fate of many people. On a battlefield, he can arrange for you to be a vanguard, and also It can allow you to stay in the rear to stop the enemy, it can allow you to serve as cannon fodder and die, or it can allow you to harvest and gain credit when the situation is stable. This alliance is aimed at the Yanfeng Kingdom. If someone from the Tianji Kingdom is allowed to take this command Officer, then it is very likely that they will deliberately target us on the battlefield. At that time, even if we win the Yanfeng Kingdom, we may suffer heavy losses and the gain will not be worth the loss. "

Although Yelu Honglin is not as familiar with war as Yelu Hongfei, he naturally knows these simple principles. Therefore, he understands how difficult it is to snatch the position of commander from the people of Tianji Kingdom.

Wu Fan certainly understands this.

Wu Fan smiled and said: "What His Highness said is that if people from the Tianji Kingdom are allowed to command us, then of course it is not allowed."

"Then you just said you wouldn't compete for the position of commander?"

"That's right." Wu Fan said, "What I mean is that we won't compete for that position, and we won't let people from the Tianji Kingdom sit in that position."

"What do you mean?" Yelu Honglin was a little confused.

"Your Highness, actually, you, Your Majesty and those from the Tianji Kingdom have entered an ideological blind spot." Wu Fan said.

"Ideological blind spot? What does it mean?" Yelu Honglin expressed even more confusion about the term that came out of Wu Fan's mouth.

"It's just that you are all thinking wrong." Wu Fan said: "It is true that the two countries want to form an alliance, but the alliance does not mean that the armies of the two countries must be united. The two countries can attack Yanfeng from two directions at the same time. The two countries each command their own armies and do not interfere with each other. Moreover, the two countries can agree that the territory they conquered and the property they seized belong to each other without having to account to the other party. The only purpose of forming an alliance is to launch an attack at the same time. , no other constraints are needed.”

"Huh? What you said makes sense!" Yelu Honglin's eyes lit up when he heard Wu Fan's words. The more he thought about it, the more he realized that what Wu Fan said made sense.

The two countries still need to form an alliance, but the alliance is only to launch an attack at the same time, and there is no need to gather troops in one place. Each team commands its own team, which also reduces the coordination problems between the two teams, and there is no need to suspect each other. In this way, they can better exert each other's combat effectiveness.

"I'll go to my father now!" Yelu Honglin said, and trotted back all the way.

"Am I helping the tyrant?" Wu Fan looked at Yelu Hongfei's back and said to himself.

The old emperor of Yanfeng asked him to come to Shuiyue to assassinate Yelu Hongfei, obviously intending to destroy the alliance between Shuiyue and Tianji. His roots are also in Yanfeng, but now he is helping Shuiyue. It's hard for him to get along with himself.

"It's all because of this damn task." Wu Fan said.

Wu Fan is now helping the eldest prince with ideas, and at the same time he has to think about destroying the alliance between Shuiyue and Tianji. Wu Fan feels that he is not crazy, which is good enough.

"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. I'll help the eldest prince, and I'll also kill the second prince. I won't delay either." Wu Fan thought to himself, and walked back to the previous palace.
