Leading an army of 150,000 is thrilling just to think about. For any general, this is a great opportunity to make a name for oneself. If Mi Wen was sitting in the hall discussing with the assembled generals, many of them would definitely volunteer to take on the task. Ye Shikai could already imagine the looks of envy on their faces when Mi Wen announced him as the one to lead the troops.
However, deep down, Ye Shikai was reluctant to command the army. Objectively speaking, there didn't seem to be a more suitable candidate than him. Could it be... because he was too excellent?
No wonder people often say that being excellent can be a crime.
Mi Wen was adept at understanding human nature and knew Ye Shikai's weaknesses well. So whenever she made a request, it was indeed difficult for Ye Shikai to refuse.
