Moses responded softly.
"Do you think..." Jessica whispered, "we should take out Barton as well?"
"No!" Moses withdrew his gaze from the window, "This time, GAIA must defeat him openly and honorably."
Killing a General Barton isn't difficult, but an assassination like this wouldn't earn Gan Yuan any points.
Winning this victory in broad daylight will earn her the true respect of the world; otherwise, she will always be seen as a shadowy assassin, not as the princess qualified to rule this country.
Otherwise, there would have been no need to wait until now; Huangfu Jue would have done it long ago.
"But..." Jessica was a bit worried, "can she really win?"
Moses glanced sideways, looking into her eyes, "If my predictions are correct, it won't be long before Barton willingly surrenders."
"That's... unlikely, right?" Jessica asked with some uncertainty, "Currently, the military strength of both sides is almost equal, how could this guy surrender?"
