Outside the city of Fulousha, the camp of the Qi army could not be seen at a glance. After several years of conquests, the army marched, only a few miles away from the city of Guishuang King.

King Guishuang and King Anxi in the city looked at the grand occasion of avoiding the sky outside the city with earthy faces.

Recalling the past, they once thought that although Qi State was strong, it would not threaten their existence.

But until today, they realized that everything was wrong to the extreme.

Hundreds of thousands of troops from the Qi State came under pressure, and all major armies joined forces to attack. Most of the Guishuang area changed hands.

Fortunately, now they have foreign aid again.

Inside the big tent, Cao Anmin looked at the Guishuang King City in front of him, his eyes were full of sadness.

He has received the urgent report from Pengcheng that Prince Cao Sheng suddenly suffered from hysteria, and there is no sign of improvement yet.

Cao Anmin, who was close to knowing the destiny, really panicked at this moment.

If Cao Sheng really can't get well all the time, who will inherit his huge empire?

Even though he holds the system in his hands, Cao Anmin has no confidence in his heart.

I can get countless good ministers and generals, but I can't get a suitable heir.

Cao Sheng has been trained as a suitable prince during these decades of his career as a prince.

Because of this, Cao Anmin dared to continue his westward expedition to deal with Anxi Guishuang and the larger Roman Empire.

There is a fire in the backyard right now, should we just let it go and lead the army back?

Just as Cao Anmin was thinking, the commanders of Yue Fei, Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, and Yuwen Chengdu quickly entered the commander's account.

"See Your Majesty."

"Everyone, please stand up and take your seats quickly." Cao Anmin put away the sadness on his face, and looked at the few people in front of him quietly.

Yu Wencheng bowed his fists and said: "Your Majesty, our army has surrounded Guishuang King's capital on all sides. When to attack, please give your majesty an order."

Cao Anmin stood up and said with his hands behind his back: "In the city, there are no less than 40 Qi troops, and if you add the common people, there are a total of [-] to [-] people. Such a huge city, if you want to attack it by force, I'm afraid there will be a lot of casualties!"

Yue Fei also persuaded: "Your Majesty, we rushed in from all directions, and Guishuang was not prepared properly, so we succeeded repeatedly. Although we have attacked under the king's city, they still have garrisons everywhere. If these garrisons quickly come to support , our army is bound to fall into a situation where we are being attacked from both sides. The few of us are also considering the overall situation, so we insist on attacking. The final general plans to lead his own troops as the vanguard, and the main force of the Beifu army and Beiwei army will concentrate on a fierce attack."

Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui had no intention of objecting either.

Cao Anmin said helplessly: "Since all the ministers have this plan, I will not stop it any longer. I only hope that the ministers will destroy the city as soon as possible without harming the soldiers."

Several people took orders and withdrew slowly, only Yu Wencheng was left at the end, and seeing that all the people had gone out, he approached and asked: "Your Majesty, I heard that there was an urgent report from the court, and seeing that your majesty's expression is depressed, is there anything wrong with the court?" misfortune?"

Cao Anmin sighed and said, "It's easy to hide it from them, but it's really not easy to hide it from you. Since you ask me this way, I won't hide anything. The court urgently reported that the prince has hysteria, and now the queen is assisting the government. The Cabinet has full responsibility."

As soon as this remark came out, Yu Wencheng was dumbfounded and was speechless for a long time.

Since Cao Anmin ascended the throne, Cao Sheng has been the prince of Qi. Over the past few decades, all the officials and subjects have become accustomed to Cao Sheng's existence.

But now, the heir to the country is gone.

Cao Anmin couldn't accept it, and Yuwen Chengdu couldn't accept it either.

"Since this is the case, the general believes that His Majesty should return home first to stabilize the situation."

Cao Anmin glanced at Yuwen Chengdu, and shook his head: "Going back at this time may lead to the waste of all previous efforts. We have been attacking so far, and it is very difficult to swallow Guishuang. If I leave, if there is any change, it will be a few years. All your efforts were in vain.”

Yu Wencheng had a bit of embarrassment on his face.

As a warrior, it is indeed a great dereliction of duty not to share the master's worries.

Now that the battle is indeed in an emergency, Cao Anmin is here, although he did not directly intervene in the battle, but seeing his figure, the soldiers' hearts are more than half at ease, and the morale has been greatly improved, which also makes the battle smoother.

Right now is a time of critical life and death, if you leave here, you really have a heart of reluctance.

"The strong attack is just around the corner. Your Majesty can wait for the situation to stabilize before leaving. Guishuang is not as easy to conquer as a small country in the Western Regions. It will take a while to completely occupy it. With four generals like me to conquer, no matter how strong Guishuang is. No matter how loud the voice of resistance is, it is impossible."

Cao Anmin also agreed with Yuwen Chengdu's idea.

Seeing that Cao Anmin didn't want to talk much, Yuwen Chengdu saluted and was about to leave, when Cao Anmin suddenly asked, "You said, if the crown prince can't get better, who will we appoint as the successor?"

Yu Wencheng's expression changed immediately when he heard the words.

The issue of imperial heir succession has always been the most urgent matter of the dynasty.Often blood flows into rivers before it can be confirmed.

Although his status in the court is not low, but he is also a foreign minister, how can he intervene in this matter.

"The minister is a foreign minister. I don't know which prince is better if I seldom enter the court. I hope your majesty will forgive me."

Cao Anmin glanced at Yuwen Chengdu, immediately understood his choice, smiled and said: "Now there are no monarchs and ministers, you are not a general, and I am not an emperor, just like an ordinary father asking you, what do you think the remaining few are?" A prince, who is the most suitable to inherit the throne?"

Yu Wencheng knelt on the ground with a thump and said, "I am really ignorant. The matter of the prince's heir is related to the rise and fall of the country. I really can't see it with the naked eye."

Seeing Yu Wencheng's behavior like this, Cao Anmin sighed, stepped forward to help him up and said, "Forget it, forget it, you go, don't tell anyone about this, understand?"

Yu Wencheng looked at Cao Anmin with folded fists and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, even if you break your teeth, I will never reveal anything."

Cao Anmin nodded in satisfaction, and watched Yuwen Chengdu leave.

After Yuwen Chengdu left, Cao Anmin returned to the table, picked up a brush and wrote down the names of his sons one by one.

I had a total of seven sons, but it was a pity that the seventh son passed away before his first birthday. After that, no matter how hard I tried, I never gave birth to a single heir.

Although there are dozens of sons to choose from like Kangxi and Zhu Yuanzhang, the six sons have different abilities. Except for the second son, Cao Feng, who is really useless, the rest of the sons are not bad in ability.

If it is a minister, it is more than enough to be a county guard.But it is not easy to manage the huge state of Qi.

The prince is the lifeblood of the country, even if he is as great as Cao Anmin, he doesn't know how to make a decision.

Chapter 1042 Extraordinary Eight, Massive Attack

It was just dawn, and only a little sunlight emerged from the east.The soldiers of Guishuang cheered up again, armed with weapons, and climbed up the city wall, preparing to replace the brothers who were on duty last night.

King Guishuang and King Anxi gathered the last 18 troops to guard the city and wait for work. They seemed to have plans to fight a tug-of-war with the Qi army.

They still have a lot of food and grass in the city. Even if they can't last a year, it is not a problem to last ten months.

Because of this, all the soldiers were not afraid at all, on the contrary, they were contented and calm.

Just as everyone was breathing heavily and preparing to change shifts, a bunch of huge black monsters suddenly appeared in the far east.

"what is that?"

"Very high."
