Regent, the princess you found is a treasure

At midnight, when Ye Youli was about to rest, he suddenly received an emergency report: the barracks was on fire! His heart tightened, and he immediately got up and went to the barracks to check the situation.

When Ye Youli arrived at the military camp, he was shocked by the scene in front of him - the fire was still burning, with thick smoke and flames rising to the sky. Ye Youli was extremely anxious and immediately ordered the soldiers to put out the fire with all their strength. However, the fire was extremely fierce and difficult to control. The soldiers could only desperately use buckets to fetch water and wet cloths to put out the flames, but with little effect.

After a night of hard fighting, the fire was finally extinguished at dawn when the sun rose. However, the military camp was in a mess. The soldiers were all covered in soot, exhausted, and in a state of embarrassment.

Looking at the tragic scene in front of him, Ye Youli frowned and asked angrily, "What happened? Why did the fire suddenly break out?"

The generals present knelt down to plead guilty. One of the deputy generals who had witnessed the torches falling from the sky last night replied tremblingly: "Your Highness, please calm down. This fire... this fire actually appeared out of thin air, falling from the sky!"

"Nonsense! How could fire fall from the sky? It's obvious that someone set the fire on purpose!" Ye Youli retorted angrily.

"Your Highness, we sent people to search everywhere and did not find any suspicious persons. Moreover, while we were busy putting out the fire last night, we saw the fire falling from the sky with our own eyes. I am not lying, and everyone in the barracks can testify to this." The deputy general explained again.

The soldiers, who were exhausted after a whole night, finally couldn't help it. They had been busy all night without sleeping, and now they began to whisper to each other in private.

"I saw with my own eyes the burning wood falling right above my head."

"I saw that too. It's so weird."

"Yes, yes, the fire was so big. This is the first time I've seen fire falling from the sky."

"Can we still fight this war? Before we even start, there are either deaths or fires."

"You say, is this a hint from God?"

"You say, this couldn't really be done by the heavenly soldiers and generals, right?"

"Is God going to destroy our Hongnan Nation?"

More than a hundred thousand soldiers were whispering and talking in low voices.

Ye You glanced coldly at the generals kneeling on the ground. These people understood what he meant, and someone immediately went down to order the soldiers not to talk nonsense. However, you can stop people from talking, but you can't stop people from thinking. Once the morale of the army is shaken, it will be difficult to go back.

Ye Youli looked at the burned and dilapidated military camp and could only order the tents to be set up, then turned around and went back to the commander-in-chief's mansion.

After returning to the mansion, Ye Youli also had a headache. The surprises that Su Luoxue had given him in the past few days made him nervous all the time and he was about to collapse. Coupled with the rumors in the army, his 200,000 troops were now like a pile of loose sand. If the enemy came to attack the city now, he really had no confidence and certainty that he could win the battle.

As for Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue, it was Meixiang's first time to go to the enemy's camp to do this, and she said it was very exciting, "Miss, are we going again tonight?"

"Let's go. Tonight we'll go directly to Ye Youli's headquarters." Su Luoxue said with a smile.

Hearing her say this, Meixiang became even more excited. Su Luoxue didn't expect that this girl would be so enthusiastic about doing this.

When Xuan Moyin heard Su Luoxue say this, he smiled. It seemed that Ye Youli would have even more headache tonight.

An Yi and Mei Xiang immediately went out of the tent to make preparations, leaving the prince and the young lady in the tent. After all, they couldn't be the main focus all the time.

"Are you planning to burn down Ye Youli's headquarters tonight?" Xuan Moyin asked with a smile.

"Well, I will slowly torture him until he has a mental breakdown." Su Luoxue said with a wicked smile.

Ye Youli was about to collapse. The soldiers in the city had been patrolling day and night to guard against the enemy's sneak attacks, but they were still unable to prevent them. Just after midnight, he had just ordered his men to pay attention to every corner of the city. He had just fallen asleep when he heard someone outside shouting, "There's a fire, there's a fire."

The fire broke out again! I wonder where the fire is this time?

He sat up and was about to go out to take a look when he saw the guards running in in a panic, "Your Highness, hurry up, there's a flood in our yard."

When Ye Youli heard this, his heart tightened. He didn't even bother to put on his clothes and shoes and ran out of the house following the guards.

As soon as he left the house, he found that the main courtyard where he lived was on fire. The guards and servants in the mansion were fetching water to put out the fire. The guards who came to protect him also quickly surrounded him and fled out of the courtyard, all the way to the open space outside the commander-in-chief's mansion.

The commander's mansion was on fire. He looked down at himself and saw that he was only wearing his sleeping clothes. He didn't even have time to put on his shoes. He escaped barefoot. Now he looked as miserable as he could be.

The guard looked at His Highness like this and was wondering whether he should take off his coat and shoes and give them to His Highness. However, due to his humble status, he was afraid that his clothes and shoes would stain His Highness' noble body.

Just when the guards were in a dilemma, several lieutenants under Ye Youli heard the news and rushed over.

Ye Youli was in such a mess that he quickly took off his coat and boots and put them on him.

It took two full hours before the fire in the commander-in-chief's mansion was put out, but the mansion was burned down to the point that only the walls of the house were left. The wooden beams on the roof were still emitting black smoke and crackling.

Ye Youli stared with bloodshot eyes. He hadn’t slept well for several nights. Yesterday he was sleepless all night again. Even a strong man couldn’t stand it. He suddenly shouted at the commander’s mansion that was burned down to ruins: “Ah——”

He really couldn't stand it anymore. He had never seen a war like this before. People didn't attack cities, so he didn't dare to fight. Every day, there were assassinations and arson, which made him exhausted. Now even the place where he lived was burned down. How could he fight this war? How could he defend this city?

Others burn here today, set a fire there tomorrow, kill a few today, kill a few tomorrow, but the problem is that they have no way to do anything and can only passively accept the beating.

If this continues, he dares to guarantee that even without Xuan Moyin and the others taking action, he will be the first to be unable to bear it.

"Surrender!" Ye Youli suddenly said two words.

The people standing behind him didn't hear clearly, or they heard clearly but were not sure what His Highness said, so someone asked: "Your Highness, you just said..."

"Surrender!" Ye Youli roared, "I said surrender!"
