The Prodigal Son of the Empire

When he first set off for the expedition, he recruited all the defense forces on the border, and this also gave Wang Kang the greatest chance!

He went deep alone, for Zhao Guo to get rid of the predicament, and he must have prepared for the worst!

He is mortal!

Even if he kills all the way to conquer the city and loot the land, it is a trivial matter.

He will eventually die!

But the adverse impact of this incident is immeasurable.

The state of Zhao is already vulnerable to the state of Yue, which is the consensus of all the city residents.

It also brought a considerable sense of superiority to Yue!

You must know that Zhao Guo was very powerful a long time ago. This is a problem left over from history.

Now that the momentum of the whole country is soaring, the Emperor Yue sent him to go out to force Zhao Guo to sign another indemnity treaty!

Just to let him win another big victory!

Taking this opportunity, use the power of the whole country to use troops against the nomads in the north...

This is national policy!

However, he did not bring a big victory, even in the case of internal strife in Zhao State itself, he still lost!

Feng'an lost 10 horses, give him a blow to the head!

Under such circumstances, it was his biggest dereliction of duty to be counterattacked by Zhao Guo!

So he received Wang Kang's letter and led his troops back immediately.

He wants to make up!

This hole was pierced by him, and His Majesty cannot make up for it.

The only good news now is that Wang Kang did not fool him, but actually came to Yue.

This gave him a chance to clear Wang Kang!

But things don't seem to be going well.

Starting from Yanzhou and returning, in order to march quickly and reduce the amount of food and grass, the original distance was shortened by half!

But it also pays a lot!

The soldiers are quite tired!

Since he led the army to attack Zhao, he has experienced a big defeat, food and grass are scarce, and he is facing difficulties!

Then forced a quick march!

For nearly a month, I didn't get the slightest rest!

This is not just a problem of low morale, but the whole army has begun to show resentment, and there are deserters!

Even if he tried his best to control it, it was still difficult to stop it. This thing seemed to be contagious, spreading to the entire army!

From Xuanhua City in Yanzhou to here, the number of deserters has reached more than 3000, so more than 1000 were executed by him...

This amount is already quite large!

The army rested at Hulao Pass, and Chen Tang inspected the barracks.

Even in the territory of Yue State, the soldiers were still unable to raise their spirits and were completely demoralized.

As the commander-in-chief of the three armies!

Chen Tang understands too well that in this situation, it is quite dangerous, and the combat effectiveness will be severely weakened!

In fact, why didn't he hold on, just to kill Wang Kang in one breath!

He has been in the army for half his life, and of course he has lost battles, and there are worse ones than this.

But I've never been so frustrated.

Every time he went to sleep, he would always think of that scene in his mind!

Above the city tower, Wang Kang set up a table to drink, with a female playing the piano and a female dancer!

The gate of the lower city was wide open, and the [-] troops behind him dared not enter!

Shame, disgrace!

This will be a shame for his life!

Wang Kang thus became his nightmare!

He swore that he would cut him into pieces and die!

Otherwise, it will be difficult to solve the hatred in my heart!

Fortunately, soon.

We have already arrived at Hulao Pass, and we will reach Pengcheng in half a day...

"Master, please rest."

Han Jian came to him and interrupted his thoughts.

"It's time to take a good rest."

Chen Tang said: "Raise your spirits and get rid of the enemy!"

"Marshal, I suggest that we rest in Hulao Pass for a few more days, rush all the way, the troops are exhausted, and the combat effectiveness has dropped sharply!"

"How long is the rest?"

Chen Tang asked rhetorically, "Three days? Or five days? Besides, we have run out of food three days ago, and all the food and grass in Hulao Pass have been burned. What's the point of resting here?"

"And if we arrive a little later, there will be more crises in Pengcheng!"

"It's actually not that pessimistic."

Han Jian said: "When we left, Pengcheng still had more than 4000 people from the Peng family. As the defenders, this force is enough!"

"Maybe Wang Kang hasn't even breached Pengcheng now."
