The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

His son and grandson both died at the hands of Chu Yan'er. He never thought that Chu Yan'er was so powerful. Facing the siege of his 150,000-man army.

He still had enough strength to destroy the other three armies. What he could not have imagined was that the 50,000-strong army was annihilated before they could even capture the city.

He had no confidence in the next battle. He had lost 100,000 troops in one fell swoop. Of the 400,000 troops he had, 200,000 were held back by Chu Xinghe and Ning Zhen.

Now there are only 300,000 soldiers available. Can this war still be won? He was also dragged to this Hezhou Prefecture.

Confused, he finally opened the three wooden boxes. Looking at the three heads inside, he burst into tears.

Thinking of the contents of Chu Yan'er's letter, his eyes were filled with hatred, his eyes were bloodshot, and veins on his forehead were bulging.

He knew Chu Yan'er did it on purpose, making him send off four young people at once. Killing his four children and grandchildren. He gritted his teeth with hatred in his eyes.

"Come here, tell all the generals to come into the tent to discuss matters!" Guan Yizhi said in a gloomy voice, suppressing his grief and anger.

Following his voice, the generals quickly appeared in the tent, and more than twenty generals filled the entire tent.

Everyone looked at Guan Yizhi, who was in command, with their eyes filled with anxiety, despair, and fear for the future.

They had only been fighting for three days and they had already lost 100,000 men. I heard that the enemy's losses were almost negligible. How could they fight a war like this?!

I'm afraid that by then, no matter how many lives they have, they won't be enough for them to kill. Chu Yan'er is even more terrifying than they imagined. They think Chu Yan'er is just a name for nothing.

But now they found out that they were totally wrong. This amazing woman was so powerful! She was so powerful that it was frightening.

"Everyone, I have decided to attack Hedu City with all my strength. We must take this city. Otherwise, our war of national destruction will become a joke!"

"Therefore, I have decided to transfer the 100,000 troops from Heyuan City and Heluo City back to Hedu City. In addition, I will leave 20,000 troops in each of the two armies to block the reinforcements from Heluo City and Heyuan City!"

"If necessary, the two armies can return to ambush the enemy forces in the two cities. We will come up with a strategy of surrounding the two points and attacking the reinforcements!"

Guan Yizhi spoke out what was in his mind. It was not only the death of his children and grandchildren that made him make up his mind, but also because the situation could not be delayed any longer.

If they keep dragging it out here, it will only be disadvantageous to them. It is better to give it a try.

Attacking Hedu City with all his strength, with superior forces crushing the enemy, he didn't believe that he couldn't take Hedu City. As for the sharp weapon in Chu Yan'er's hand, he didn't believe that Chu Yan'er could have endless sharp weapons.

He started to enter the city through the four city gates at the same time, and he didn't believe that Chu Yan'er could handle it.

As for whether he would be attacked by the other two cities, he had also thought of a countermeasure. That was to send troops to intercept them. As long as they could hold the other side back, that would be enough.

If it really doesn't work, you can also set up an ambush circle on the road and destroy the enemy by encircling and attacking the reinforcements.

When the generals heard this, their faces changed. They all looked at each other with worry in their eyes. Doing this would be too risky.

You have to know that Ning Zhen and Chu Xinghe are both famous generals of Dayan. Their abilities are definitely not bad. If they thought they could stop them with tens of thousands of people, the current situation would not have occurred.

The idea of ​​sieging a point and attacking reinforcements was good, but it also depended on who they were targeting. Chu Xinghe and Ning Zhen couldn't be so stupid as to not see this. Everyone could see that Guan Yizhi had lost some of his mind due to the pain of losing his son and grandson.

However, having said that, if we can capture Hedu City in a short period of time, this risky move can still be taken.

But the question is, can their risky move really succeed? Don't forget how terrifying Chu Yan'er is.

An army of 100,000 was destroyed by Chu Yan'er. Even if Chu Yan'er did not have enough troops, it would not be possible for them to break into Hedu City so easily.

If they are delayed in Hedu City, when Chu Xinghe and Ning Zhen arrive, they will be the ones who will be defeated in the end. Don't forget that they have seized most of Dayan's land.

But they are still in the territory of Dayan. If their retreat is cut off, they may have no way out.

"Marshal, this move is too risky. I think we still have to take a long-term view. It's better for us to be cautious and take it step by step!" The deputy marshal said hurriedly at this time.

The others also nodded in agreement. The only one who could dissuade him was the deputy commander!

Guan Yizhi's eyes turned red when he heard this. He looked up at the deputy commander and said, "You said you wanted us to be cautious, but what happened? It was because we were cautious that we were defeated one by one after we divided our forces. If we had not sought to be cautious from the beginning and had sent a large army to attack us, this situation would not have happened!"

Guan Yizhi felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have thought that he had the upper hand in terms of military strength and had to play it safe. However, he never expected that Chu Yan'er would take advantage of his desire for safety.

He was able to destroy his army of 100,000 with only 100,000 men. If an army of 200,000 had directly laid siege to the city, the current situation would not have occurred.

Not only did he lose 100,000 troops, but also his four children and grandchildren died.

The deputy commander opened his mouth when he heard this, but swallowed the words back. The rest of the people could only keep silent and acquiesce to Guan Yizhi's decision.

At this moment, urgent military information suddenly came in. The generals in the tent looked a little surprised. What kind of urgent military information could there be at this time?

Guan Yizhi suppressed his bad feeling and let the man into the tent. As soon as the soldier entered the tent, he knelt down and said, "Report, General, the siege of Weizhou Zhongguan has been lifted, and our army of 100,000 people has been almost wiped out. The 70,000 troops in Weizhou Zhongguan have seized all the cities we occupied with the force of thunder."

"Now they are heading straight for Jiangyue City in Jiangzhou Prefecture. Once Jiangyue City is lost, our retreat will be cut off!"

After hearing the soldier's words, the scene fell into a dead silence. Everyone's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. Guan Yizhi stared at the soldier in astonishment, thinking he had heard it wrong!

"What did you say? The siege of Zhongguan in Weizhou was lifted. What happened?!" Guan Yizhi came back to his senses and said to the soldiers in an angry voice.

"Reporting to the commander, 20,000 Jinzhou troops rushed to Weizhou Pass. They cooperated with the defenders in Weizhou Pass to launch an attack. They used explosive weapons to kill and injure countless of our soldiers. Taking advantage of the confusion of our army, they also used cavalry to charge. Our army was defeated."

"The enemy took advantage of our army's failure to react and captured several of our cities. Although the soldiers defending the cities fought desperately, they had weapons in their hands and the city gates were almost useless. Our troops defending the cities were unable to resist them at all!"

Upon hearing this, Guan Yizhi slumped down on his seat, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
