"There's been a slight change of plans," Lillie called the captain assigned to lead tonight's raid. "Tell the detachment to be on standby for a while and wait for my signal."
She doesn't need to tell him the reason why. The captain knew better than to question his boss.
[Got it!]
"But keep in mind that nothing is stopping this attack. It 'will' happen tonight." Lillie stressed. "We can't let She Gu think he'll get away with this disrespect."
[Leave it us, boss. To think that old fool hasn't learned his lesson, tsk tsk. Is he secretly a masochist?] The captain muttered the last sentence mostly to himself.
"I trust that you'll give him another grand reminder."
[We'll make sure that old fool's face turns red in anger until his blood vessels pop.]
"Hm, see that you do." Lillie's eyes glinted.
After that phone call, Lillie turned to her younger brother and sister-in-law.
