In the Military Camp in the north.
Inside the tent, Ye Ge and Lu Jianxi are discussing their battle plan:
Lu Jianxi said: The art of war speaks of "taking the roundabout as the direct route" and "using hardships as advantages". To seize the first opportunity in the decisive battle, we have just taken over Shouchun and if we now direct all our armed forces to Tiandu City, Dashun will surely have prepared their defenses.
Ye Ge, on the other hand, was looking at the battle map in front of him. Compared to Lu Jianxi's aggressiveness, he seemed very calm, but there was no hint of compromise in his tone: "Just because they think we won't attack Tiandu with all our might, that's why I want to attack Tiandu with all our might."
Lu Jianxi then said: "This is not playing by the rules!"
"I never play by the rules!" Ye Ge casually replied.
