Li Teng bowed with a look of shame. "Please, Senior General, punish me!"
Li Teng had no way to argue against the charge.
"The Great King has already issued a decree," Wang Jian said in a grave tone. "This offense will be noted for now. You are ordered to remain on probation. If such negligence occurs again when we mobilize troops, both offenses will be punished together."
"This humble general thanks the Great King for his magnanimity." Li Teng bowed deeply and thanked him loudly.
"Rise," Wang Jian said, waving his hand and fixing his gaze on Li Teng. "How goes the battle?"
Li Teng quickly responded, "Reporting to the Senior General, I have dispatched 80,000 troops along four routes to pursue the Han army. We are gradually clearing the path to the Han Capital. Within a month, I am confident that I can completely open the road and bring our troops to its gates."
"Haste makes waste."
"I am giving you time. You must advance steadily and strictly avoid any further mistakes."
