The 60,000-strong Yan Army rushed towards Xiongzhou City, with smoke and dust billowing and battle flags flying.
The sudden news caught Nu Ce off guard.
Yan Gui is going to attack Xiongzhou City. Why was there no news about such a big thing before? Are those spies all dead
Nu Ce was so furious that he smashed several antique ornaments in succession, but it could not calm his anger. He was not afraid of Yan returning to Xiongzhou City. What he was afraid of was that while he was killing the enemy in front, his good brothers would stab him in the back.
"Prince, the Yan Gui army will arrive in Xiongzhou within three days. Please make preparations as soon as possible."
Looking at the hot-tempered eldest prince, the counselors around him felt very regretful. How could they be so blind as to think that the eldest prince was the eldest and the son of the princess and would definitely inherit the throne in the future, and thus followed him.
Who knew he was such a fool? Not only was he a fool, but he was also unlucky. The princess had a hard time getting him to Xiongzhou, and told him to stay there for three years and then go back, and get some credit. When the three years were up and he could go back, Yan returned.
Nu Ce kicked the table beside him fiercely and said, "Do you think Xiao Wang is afraid of him? Xiao Wang is afraid that those bastards will stab me in the back. What should I do if I am attacked from both sides?"
The younger one was about to open his mouth, but the older one beside him pulled him aside and said, "What should we do? We can't retreat without a fight, right?"
Nu Ce glared at the two counselors beside him fiercely and said, "If we fight, can the little king still be a deserter?"
The two counselors looked at each other, and the older counselor continued, "Prince, you must leave yourself a way out when fighting. You can't fight in vain and let others take advantage of you."
Nu Ce seemed to be thinking about something.
Yan Gui arrives with great momentum, and this war must be won or lost, a fight to the death.
The Yan army arrived earlier than Mou Sheng had imagined, and the war was more difficult than he had expected.
As the army approached the city, chaos began to break out in the inner city of Xiongzhou.
Flames were shooting up into the sky. Whose house was burned
Ding Da threw away the torch in his hand and looked coldly at the house engulfed by the raging fire. This was the place where he and his family had lived for more than 30 years, and now it was burned down by him.
If Xiongzhou City is not in chaos, how can the general successfully capture the city? How can he return to the Yan Family Army and become a soldier of the Great Xia Kingdom
"Brother, what about the third child?"
Ding Da looked at his brothers behind him and said, "Send two people to sneak in and take a look. If they can save people, then save them. If they can't, then set fire to Xiongzhou City. The more chaos Xiongzhou City has, the better."
"Yes." The brothers behind him dispersed and soon disappeared into the dark night.
Ding Da took another look at the burning house, looked at the panicked neighbors around him, and turned away. His family had already made arrangements, as long as the fire did not spread to the neighbors.
Outside the city, Nu Ce led his troops to fight. He was the eldest prince, so how could he just stay in the city and not go out? He couldn't afford to lose face.
The fighting inside and outside the city lasted for three days and three nights. Countless people fell, and countless people rushed forward.
Blood, body parts, crying, fighting...
Xiongzhou City was breached on the third day, and Nu Ce was escorted back by the soldiers around him.
"General, don't chase after a desperate enemy. What will happen to the huge mess in Xiongzhou City if you leave? I will lead people to chase after him, and you can't go." Ding Da finally stood beside Yan Gui, holding a bloody sword.
Yan Gui shook his head: "I'll leave Xiongzhou City to you four brothers. I'll take Xiaoqing with me. It's okay."
Yan Gui led two thousand soldiers and headed straight towards the direction where Nu Ce was fleeing.
