Chapter 702
Three thousand soldiers are not a small number, but they are definitely not a large one either. Even if Cheng Dalei's forces are stretched to this extent, he can certainly afford them. But does the current emperor, with a three hundred thousand strong imperial guard, really need to borrow three thousand soldiers?
In response to Cheng Dalei's question, Tian Qi did not answer, only saying, "His Majesty asked me to relay to Chief Cheng that he is borrowing your three thousand troops, but bestowing upon you the title 'King of Liangzhou'."
Cheng Dalei pondered; right now, his title as King of Liangzhou was in name only. Otherwise, Tian Qi wouldn't be here to deliver the message himself. The real concern was Minister Cui.
"Has His Majesty's situation deteriorated to the point of a desperate fight?"
Tian Qi didn't answer, for the key problem was hard to explainconsidering the lack of respect for the Emperor in Cheng Dalei's words.
