The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince
Chapter 48: Losing
Everyone looked at Jiang Fan unconsciously with surprise in their eyes. Chu Xinghe, Ning Zhen, and a group of generals, saw the soldiers trained by Jiang Fan with surprise in their eyes. Even Chu Yan'er couldn't help but be amazed.
Are these soldiers who obey orders in front of her really the same group of ruffians and bad soldiers as before? Even the elite soldiers under her may not be able to achieve such a military appearance.
She admired Jiang Fan again. This guy was really good at training soldiers. In just seven days, he was able to train these soldiers so well.
However, even though these soldiers were strictly disciplined and followed orders, Jiang Fan committed a big mistake and retreated at the critical moment.
More than 230 people, attacking 100 people. With the strength of her elite soldiers, they can definitely disperse Jiang Fan's soldiers in a short time.
You can even take the opportunity to seize the leadership.
Just when everyone thought that even if Jiang Fan performed well, he would still lose in the end.
The hundred men immediately formed a battle formation and collided with the two hundred men who were charging at them. As the two sides collided, although some men in the black-robed army were constantly eliminated, some men in the white-robed army also began to be eliminated.
However, what shocked everyone was that although the white robe soldiers were being eliminated, the elimination rate was directly proportional to that of the black robe soldiers.
The two sides were almost engaged in a one-on-one competition, and the result left everyone dumbfounded.
Faced with a force twice as many as their own, the White Robe Army was still able to achieve a one-for-one exchange. Such combat power is truly shocking.
When Chu Yan'er saw this scene, her face changed drastically. She knew that she had fallen into Jiang Fan's trap.
You must know that morale on the battlefield is a principle that is strong at the beginning but will weaken and eventually be exhausted.
She originally wanted to take down these 100 people in one go, but her effort was obviously blocked.
Next, the morale of her soldiers was running low. Jiang Fan was using these 100 men to wear down her morale.
If she didn't react, she would be at a disadvantage.
But at this time, her soldiers had already rushed to Jiang Fan's command platform, and it was impossible for them to retreat.
As a last resort, she had to wave the flag again. In the blink of an eye, the remaining 200 soldiers hiding not far from both sides of her command desk rushed out.
These soldiers rushed towards where Jiang Fan was.
However, in terms of distance, the two sides were separated by nearly a cup of tea's time. This situation made Chu Yan'er slightly stunned.
She looked at Jiang Fan in shock, with a look of astonishment in her eyes. She realized at this moment that during the battle between the two sides, Jiang Fan's soldiers had retreated to the command platform without knowing when, and his white-robed soldiers had led Chu Yan'er's black-robed soldiers to their own positions.
Only then did she remember that from the beginning when Jiang Fan started fighting with her black robe army, Jiang Fan didn't seem to have any intention of advancing towards her.
Even when Jiang Fan had a huge advantage, he did not seem to let his hundreds of men advance towards her command post.
At first, she thought that the reason Jiang Fan did not advance was because he was afraid of turning his hundred men into an isolated force.
Now it seems that the reason why Jiang Fan did not advance was not just because he was afraid of leaving his hundred men isolated.
Instead, Jiang Fan had his own plans, or rather, from the very beginning, Jiang Fan took advantage of her inherent thoughts and led her step by step into his trap.
After her one hundred people were eliminated and only thirty or so were left, Jiang Fan began to implement his plan.
Faced with such a situation, what Chu Yan'er had to do, of course, was to send troops for support.
She now vaguely felt that the reason why Jiang Fan seemed to want to protect the hundred people when she came to support him was obviously to lure the enemy deeper.
Giving her hope to charge and seize the battle. And she did think at that time that Jiang Fan might not have time to react, as long as she could do it before Jiang Fan reacted.
If she could rush to the command platform and take Jiang Fan down before the remaining 400 men of Jiang Fan were sent out, she would win.
Now that she thought about it, all this was just Jiang Fan's scheme to give her hope and illusion, to make her bet everything, and she was so foolish that she fell into his trap.
Now think about it, Jiang Fan was able to remain so calm because he had absolute confidence that he could stop her elite troops with just those one hundred men.
To hold back her black-robed army, all we need to do is to weaken the morale of her elite soldiers.
If she fails to capture the city after a long time, she will be in a dilemma: advance... or retreat. If she advances, she will have to put her entire army into action.
But the distance between the two sides is so far that even if the entire army is deployed, they will definitely fall into Jiang Fan's trap in the end. At that time, Jiang Fan's remaining troops will definitely appear.
She has played all her cards, but Jiang Fan is able to respond accordingly. And this is the time for Jiang Fan to counterattack.
But if she retreated, it would be a big taboo in military strategy. She would be chased by Jiang Fan and even be defeated in the end.
Chu Yan'er looked at Jiang Fan opposite her with a wry smile, feeling a sense of loss in her heart. She was actually being suffocated by the useless prince in the eyes of others. He... really made everyone misjudge him.
On the high platform, Chu Xinghe saw this scene and his eyes widened with shock. Ning Zhen's face was also full of surprise. He looked at Jiang Fan on the high platform with admiration flashing in his eyes.
He couldn't help but look towards where the imperial concubine was, and glanced at his sister. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
Good boy, he felt that he had underestimated Jiang Fan. This eighth prince was a low-key person, but now he is going to make a big splash.
In the current battle, it seemed that he was imitating Chu Yan'er at first, but now it seems that he was just paralyzing everyone, or even paralyzing Chu Yan'er by doing this at the beginning.
Even at the beginning, Jiang Fan did not have any clear tactical strategy, and everything was done improvisationally. This ability to adapt to changes on the battlefield is a rare talent.
Even if he met Jiang Fan on the battlefield, he would probably be defeated. As for the other generals, as long as they had some ability, they also saw that Jiang Fan was extraordinary.
Although Emperor Yan was not proficient in marching and fighting, he could see that his son was probably being led by Chu Yan'er's nose.
His heart was filled with excitement and he couldn't help but smile.
The eunuch chief Liu Fu standing by also had a look of joy on his face. He thought that his life was saved now. This Eighth Prince was truly an extraordinary person.
Compared to the eighth prince, the remaining princes are simply not good enough.
When the other princes saw this scene, they stood there in a daze. Even though they did not understand the tactics or the battle situation, they could see that Chu Yan'er was now in an extremely passive situation.
The Huang brothers and a group of playboys who were betting against Jiang Fan all looked extremely unhappy.
How happy I was just now, how desperate I am now, wondering how I will get the money back if I lose.
