The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

But he suppressed his fear and said quickly, "Your Majesty, the 300,000-man vanguard and new troops were defeated as soon as they engaged the Dashi Army. The 300,000-man army was completely wiped out! The Dashi Army is already approaching the capital!"

As soon as he said this, there was a sound of people gasping for air at the scene. Everyone looked at him in shock, their eyes filled with shock, and for a moment they were unable to accept the fact that he said.

How could it be possible that an army of 300,000 soldiers was defeated right after the battle? They were not 30 people, but 300,000! No matter how powerful the enemy was, how could they defeat an army of 300,000 soldiers in such a short time?

Even Jiang Zheng didn't believe it was true. Three hundred thousand people could have held back the enemy, so how could they have been defeated?

However, with Jiang Zheng's limited military knowledge, how could he know that although 300,000 troops may seem a lot, the new army has weak cohesion, and that when large troops fight, the large number of people can sometimes become a burden.

Once someone retreats, if it causes the crowd to follow suit, it will cause a large-scale rout. The final result will turn into a camp roar!

Not to mention, after a round of artillery bombardment by the Dashi Army, the new Liaoxia troops were already in panic. Coupled with the powerful attack of the cavalry, it didn't take long before a camp roar was caused.

It was difficult to control the 300,000-strong army in the end. Before the Dashi Army launched an attack, they themselves suffered considerable casualties due to trampling.

Now that 300,000 troops have fled, how can they be reorganized? They were forcibly conscripted and no one wants to fight. Therefore, the 300,000 troops are equivalent to being wiped out.

Jiang Zheng stood up from the dragon throne, looking at the soldiers' report below in astonishment, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. The court officials all had different expressions.

The failure of the 300,000-strong army also foreshadows the imminent destruction of Liao and Xia. After they were destroyed by Jiang Zheng, they will face another destruction.

However, the one who will be destroyed this time will be Jiang Zheng, who has just seized the Liaoxia Kingdom. If the situation is not clear at this time and Jiang Zheng still controls their life and death, it is estimated that some people will leave on the spot.

"My dear Shangguan, hurry... I order you to lead an army of 150,000 to fight against the Dashi Army immediately. You must protect Liaoxia!" Jiang Zheng came to his senses and hurriedly said to Shangguan Wudi.

Shangguan Wudi nodded upon hearing this, then turned around and walked out of the hall.

At the same time, 220,000 Dashi troops rushed to the royal capital at the fastest speed, and the three armies rushed towards the Liaoxia royal capital from three directions.

The remnant soldiers of Liao and Xia who were fleeing in front rushed towards the royal capital. In front of the royal capital, 150,000 Liao and Xia soldiers saw the remnant soldiers who had fled back, and they also learned what happened on the front line.

The entire army was in fear and despair. Among the 150,000 troops, nearly 100,000 were from the former Liaoxia Army, and the remaining 50,000 were Jiang Zheng's trusted troops brought from Dayan.

As for his original army, they were all killed by the Chu brothers in Liaoxi.

These 150,000 troops were originally stationed in front of the royal capital. They were the last line of defense against the Dashi Army.

Seeing the remnant army rushing to the camp, Jiang Zheng's 50,000 trusted men rushed forward. They wanted to unite the tens of thousands of remnant troops, but the remnant army seemed to have not heard their orders and just kept running forward. Some wanted to escape to the capital, while others wanted to find a safe place after escaping to the capital.

Faced with the remnants of the army who did not obey orders, the 50,000-strong army, under the command of the generals, immediately launched a massacre against the remnants.

After all, if these remnants were allowed to escape, it would likely affect the morale of the entire army. Only by killing them could they be stopped from fleeing.

But as soon as they started to massacre the remaining troops, they instantly aroused anger and resentment in their hearts.

They had already suffered enough, having been traumatized by the beatings from the Dashi Army. Now that they had finally escaped back, their own people not only did not protect them, but wanted to kill them instead.

The brave remnants of the Liao and Xia armies were immediately enraged. They were afraid of the Dashi Army, so how could they be afraid of the new emperor's subordinates who were pushing them to death?

Therefore, under the leadership of some people who had long been dissatisfied with the new emperor Jiang Zheng, the remnant army launched a counterattack against the Liaoxia army that blocked them.

The two sides fought each other, and the whole situation got out of control. Since these people didn't want them to live, they had to fight!

The battle immediately caused chaos among the 150,000 troops guarding the capital, and the only ones who were really in chaos were Jiang Zheng's 50,000 trusted men. The remaining 100,000 troops just stood by and watched coldly.

It's not that they don't want to get involved, it's just that these people are too much, they don't treat them as Liaoxia people. They are already angry. It's good enough that they didn't join in.

At this time, in the chaotic army formation over there, a general shouted angrily to the 50,000 Liaoxia troops on both sides: "Why don't you come to help? Are you planning to rebel? You just wait for me. After I deal with these chaotic troops, I will report to His Majesty and sentence you to death!"

As soon as the general said this, the Liaoxia army commander, who was originally just watching the fun, suddenly turned cold. He exchanged glances with the general next to him. They both saw the anger and unwillingness in each other's eyes.

As a result, the generals leading both sides immediately raised their arms and shouted.

"Let's rebel... Brothers, we've had enough of that damn new emperor. He doesn't treat us as human beings and bullies us. Why don't we join the Dashi Army and fight for a future and a way to survive!"

Following the general's voice, everyone echoed, and then the 50,000 former Liaoxia troops on each side immediately launched an attack on the 50,000 Jiang Zheng's confidants in the middle.

Anyway, the Dashi Army has arrived. If they join the Dashi Army, will they still have to endure the new emperor's wrath? I'm afraid the new Liaoxia Kingdom will also be destroyed!

Therefore, these people had nothing to worry about, they just rebelled. One hundred thousand people, together with the remaining soldiers, launched a fatal offensive against Jiang Zheng's last fifty thousand confidants.

In the blink of an eye, the trusted army of Jiang Zheng, who was once incomparable in power, suddenly became the target of slaughter.

When Shangguan Wudi arrived, he saw a melee on his side. Just as he, the supreme commander, was about to break in and separate the two sides of the fight, he wanted to have a good talk with them.

The rebellious Liaoxia army launched an attack on him. Facing the crazy Liaoxia army, Shangguan Wudi was dumbfounded.

He had never expected this result. He had just been ambitiously thinking about leading 150,000 Liaoxia troops to stop the enemy outside the capital.

But before he could realize his ambition, his own people started to kill each other. Looking at the Liaoxia troops coming towards him, he felt anxious and angry. But he could do nothing.

After killing several Liaoxia soldiers, he turned around and fled with his personal soldiers. If he stayed here any longer, even if his strength was close to that of a grandmaster, he would probably still be trapped in the army.

He fled back to the palace in a panic. Jiang Zheng was still waiting for his news. As for the court officials, they had left long ago. Jiang Zheng sat alone on the throne.
