The letter stated that King An was injured and had withdrawn his troops, and Wu Gorge was defended. The army that had just joined King Chu under the city was led by Lin Qinghe, who had put on the armor of King An's army.

Lin Qinghe has already held the King of Chu hostage, saying that he wants to provoke a fight between King An and King Chu.

When Huang Xiao saw the letter, he wanted to laugh out loud. Seeing that the King of Chu was withdrawing his troops, he was not idle either. He first cautiously sent a few cavalrymen out of the city to inquire about the situation and confirm that the matter was true and that the King of Chu had really retreated.

After Huang Xiao left enough troops to defend the city, he led 20,000 troops out of the city.

Although Lin Qinghe said in the letter that he had held the King of Chu hostage, to be on the safe side, he still followed to see. Maybe he could be of use there.

At this time, far outside Wu Gorge, Prince An, who was withdrawing his troops, was being treated by a doctor in the tent. If he had not leaned to the side at that time, the arrow shot by Lin Qinghe would have really taken his life.

But even so, he is now unconscious.

After the military doctor pulled out the arrow for him, basins of blood were continuously scooped out.

After being in a coma for several days, Prince An finally woke up.

In Lin Qinghe's assassination attempt, one of the three arrows she shot hit Prince An, and the other arrow killed a general next to him.

Coincidentally, the general who was shot was the one who suggested that Prince An search for the common people around and let the common people block the swords in front of the army.

"Your Highness, are we still attacking?" As Wu Gorge had not yet been taken, Chen Ting, a general under Prince An, stood in front of his bed and asked cautiously.

Upon hearing this, Prince An's pale face turned even worse. He felt a dull pain in his chest where the arrow had hit him. "Why are you still fighting? The enemy has experts. Do you want to disregard my life and death?"

Could the person who could sneak attack him with an arrow in the midst of thousands of soldiers without them noticing be an ordinary person?

If he is shot with another arrow, won’t he die?

With the example of his own men being shot and killed with two arrows, Prince An's mind was now full of retreat.

You can’t fight anymore. If you continue, my life will be in danger!

The enemy has a master!

"Then we will withdraw our troops in a few days? But what should we say to His Royal Highness the King of Chu?" Chen Ting asked.

"It is not advisable to stay here for a long time. I will feel uneasy if I stay here for a moment longer. My royal brother certainly does not want to see me die from an arrow. Let the military advisor give my royal brother a letter of divorce, saying that I want to go home and leave 40,000 elite soldiers to help him." Prince An now only wants to return to Qingzhou.

He was already very loyal. Only 80,000 troops followed him to the war, and about 10,000 of them died in the Battle of Wu Gorge.

He gave half of his troops to the King of Chu to help him succeed.

Prince An is feeling a bit regretful now. The princess had previously said that it would be better for him to be an idle prince than to rebel, and that he had no talent for fighting.

Although she said so, she didn't expect that she really didn't have it, and even lost her life just after going out.

Why is he rebelling? He wants to go back to Qingzhou!

Prince An's mind is now filled with thoughts of not listening to the princess and suffering the consequences.

"Yes, I will go and reorganize the army right away. After a few days, when the prince's injury is better, I will go back to Qingzhou with the prince." After receiving the order, Chen Ting went out.

Prince An lay on the bed like a dead fish.

What Prince An did not expect was that after two days, when his subordinate Chen Ting had been packed up, and he was being carried back to Qingzhou, he ran into the army of Prince Chu that was blocking him in front!

"Is this reinforcement? I didn't expect my brother to care about me so much..." The lying Prince An was a little excited. He was indeed his good brother. "Hurry, help me up. Could it be that my brother has already taken Yuzhou?"

With the help of the guards beside him, Prince An stood up with difficulty. He stretched his neck and looked around like a little duck.

When he saw the flag with the word "Chu" on it heading in the distance, he laughed, "It is indeed my brother!"

But then he frowned again. Something was wrong. Why did this army feel more numerous than the original army that the King of Chu led to the expedition?

My brother, it was effortless for you to capture Yuzhou, and the casualties were not too great...

Because they mistakenly thought that friendly forces had arrived, Prince An's army was not on guard at all.

But when the King of Chu's army arrived, they actually opened fire!

"Ah?" Prince An was confused, not knowing whether he should fight back.

At the beginning, the two armies were just fighting a small battle. The soldiers of the Chu King's army acted with great restraint and did not cause too many casualties.

However, the soldiers under the King of Chu were cautious about taking action, but the army led by Lin Qinghe had no scruples.

The war grew bigger and bigger until both sides became bloodthirsty.

The King of Chu looked at the battle situation in front of him and smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid my eighth brother won't trust me this time."

After the two sides went to war, it was obvious that the Chu King's army was substantially stronger than the army under King An because the soldiers were well-trained.

The troops under Prince An were being beaten because they had no instructions from their own prince.

However, as the war gradually entered a white-hot stage, the armies of both sides became increasingly unscrupulous, and the soldiers, blinded by rage, fought desperately.

Also, their superiors did not issue accurate orders for attacking formations.

You stabbed me twice, I stabbed you three times, and the whole battlefield was in chaos.

The battle lasted until sunset, and both armies were exhausted. When Lin Qinghe saw that it was almost over, he said, "It's enough."

The King of Chu immediately ordered his subordinates to withdraw their troops and not to fight any further.

"After that, I would like to trouble His Royal Highness Prince Chu and His Royal Highness Prince An to accompany me back to the capital. His Majesty must be waiting anxiously."

All I saw was devastation and corpses everywhere under the setting sun. The setting sun was as red as blood, making the blood on the ground so eye-catching.

Lin Qinghe knew that the result he wanted had been achieved. This battle consumed most of the manpower of the troops under King An and King Chu, making it impossible for them to make any more waves.

She would then bring the Prince of Chu and the Prince of An to the capital and hand them over to the young emperor to control them.

The remaining troops of their subordinates were handed over to Huang Xiao for care. The remaining forces of both sides added up to no more than 50,000. They could not cause any waves this time.

"I didn't expect our rebellion would end like this..." King Chu looked in the direction of King An's army, which had also called off the battle. "Eighth brother would not want to see his brother being poisoned to death. I hope you can forgive me."

In order to threaten the King of Chu, Lin Qinghe also made a secret "poison pill" and fed it to him.

In fact, it was just a mud pill, but the most important thing was that Lin Qinghe injected a violent spiritual power into his body.

Since the King of Chu was a martial artist, Lin Qinghe simply sent a lot of violent spiritual power to him this time in order to convince him. He was able to endure it until now without saying a word, which showed that he was really a man.

"As for how to get Prince An, I think His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu should know how to do it." Lin Qinghe smiled faintly.

"..." The King of Chu rubbed his aching forehead with trembling hands, "Can't you just kidnap him?"

Repeat the scene of kidnapping yourself.

How could he have the nerve to let him go? He had just had a fierce fight with his eighth brother. The soldiers on both sides were so bloodthirsty that they had a big grudge against each other!

"Your army just had a gunfight with him. If I go there, I won't be able to see him and will be beaten out." Lin Qinghe said no.

"..." The King of Chu gritted his teeth and said, "Come here, bring me some writing materials. I want to write a letter."
