Chapter 1473 -1468: Pacification
On the sea, Zhou’s warships quickly turned around, as if they intended to kill the Dongyi navy commander and escape after insulting the Dongyi navy.
The Dongyi navy pursued relentlessly, both sides moving rapidly, with Dongyi seemingly faster than Zhou. Every time the two fleets almost touched, Zhou’s warships, amid desperate struggle, suddenly surged with unprecedented power, distancing themselves from the Dongyi navy.
The Dongyi navy’s deputy commander was infuriated, fiercely slamming the ship’s railing, shouting hoarsely to speed up the ships!

The fleet led by Bai Qingyan had already reached Guan Island.
She decided to divide the troops into two routes from Guan Island. Bai Qingyan would lead one route from Guan Island, following the predetermined plan, to Guadu City to join Chen Qingsheng. Bai Qingjue and Bai Jinzhi would advance directly from Guan Island to Dongyi territory from Liuguan and then… attack the Dongyi capital from two directions.
This way, the sparsely populated Dongyi would be unable to split their troops or send reinforcements, making it easy for Zhou’s Bai family army, which is strong with high combat proficiency, almost without difficulty.
“Dongyi’s greatest weakness is its sparse population.” Bai Qingyan stood in front of the huge Dongyi map, pointing on the map, “So, as long as we advance in two routes, Dongyi won’t be able to attend to everything, unable to send reinforcements…”
For Zhou, dividing the troops into two routes equals naturally conquering Dongyi troops piece by piece.
“Eldest Young Lady is right. Thus… Eldest Young Lady and the Fourth Young Lady will lead half the troops to Guadu City, where Chen Qingsheng is, while I lead the other to land at Dongyi from Liuguan for safety!” Bai Qingjue paced to Bai Qingyan’s side, speaking earnestly, “After all… Eldest Young Lady is the Emperor, and there’s no room for mistakes. It’s quicker from Guan Island to Liuguan than Guan Island to Guadu, so Guan Island will likely launch first! Should other places receive reinforcements, it’ll be dangerous.”
“Yes, Eldest Young Lady!” Bai Jinzhi agreed with Bai Qingjue’s reasoning, understanding that anyone could be at risk, but not Eldest Young Lady.
“Don’t worry. I will start the battle at the previously agreed time with Chen Qingsheng…” Bai Qingyan said.
Bai Qingjue still wanted to insist: “But Eldest Young Lady…”
“Orders are orders!” Bai Qingyan looked at Bai Qingjue, indicating no room for negotiation.
Since Chen Qingsheng would support at Guadu City, Bai Qingyan took fewer troops, yet Bai Qingjue and Bai Jinzhi’s reasoning couldn’t surpass the authority of “orders are orders.”
Bai Qingjue and Bai Jinzhi took most of the Bai family army to Guadu City, while Bai Qingyan proceeded with Cheng Yuanzhi and a smaller detachment to Liuguan.
“Then let Cheng Yuanzhi and Shen Liangyu accompany Eldest Young Lady!” Bai Qingjue thought for a moment and suggested, “Otherwise, neither I nor the Fourth Young Lady would be assured!”
