Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 465: Escape and Preparation

Violent flames erupted, almost lighting up the sky.

Grass, trees, and rocks flew everywhere, and countless Yan soldiers were killed in the sea of ​​fire and successive explosions.

Below, Xiao Tianzhu and Wanyan Tielu looked at each other, their scalps tingling and their hearts pounding!

"It's over!"

A huge fear suddenly enveloped Xiao Tianzhu.

His body went limp and he fainted, falling off his horse.

Wanyan Tielu's face was pale and his body was shaking uncontrollably.

This loss has exceeded what they can bear.

No one could have imagined that they would dare to blow up the mountain!

Because the Yan Dynasty had a vast territory, transportation was limited and the roads had never been repaired.

In addition, the distance between the West Coast and the East Coast is extremely far.

The news of Qin Ming blasting the mountain has not yet reached the ears of Xiao Tianzhu and Wanyan Tielu.

This led to them not even thinking about it.

"Take a detour and retreat!"

Wanyan Tielu turned his head and glanced at the unconscious Xiao Tianzhu, and he was also under tremendous pressure.

But he couldn't fall.

If he fell at this time, it would be all over.

"go!"

With the remaining troops, he chose to bypass Huangfeng Mountain and leave quickly.

Even if I have to take a detour, even if I die of exhaustion on the way, it is still much better than staying here.

But reality always gives people one blow after another.

Many bad things just happen,

But this is not the scariest thing.

Just as they were fleeing frantically amid the successive explosions, suddenly, a deafening sound was heard!

The mountain collapsed and countless rubble rolled down.

The front and rear roads connecting Huangfeng Mountain were blocked!

This terrain-changing battle even had a significant impact on the arrival of their subsequent support.

Wanyan Tielu heard the sound of the Huangfeng Mountain collapsing, but he didn't dare to look back, let alone waste a moment to escape.

But no matter how hard you try to survive, bad things still happen one after another.

"Wanyan Tielu!"

In the wilderness, a loud shout suddenly came.

Cao Chuan's figure appeared in the distance.

This scene made Wanyan Tielu's eyes suddenly widen.

"Why are you here? How is this possible?"

He clearly remembered that before arriving at Huangfeng Mountain, he had already arranged many troops to serve as cannon fodder along the way.

This way, at least we can stop the troops chasing from behind.

But even so, Cao Chuan still came.

It seems that he definitely did not collide with those people!

Isn't he afraid of being attacked from both sides?

"kill!"

Without any further ado, Cao Chuan led the Daqian troops carrying muskets and shotguns and charged into the Yan army's formation.

This is how the battlefield is, a slight mistake can lead to a huge disaster.

What's more, the tactical commander this time is Ye Shoujiang.

Wanyan Tielu and Xiao Tianzhu never saw through his purpose from beginning to end.

This means that the level difference between them is too big.

Wanyan Tielu was in a sad mood. He took a deep breath and made a decision quickly.

"Divide one hundred thousand troops... and stay behind."

After such a long journey, no one knows how much combat effectiveness these troops have left.

An army of 100,000 can only be used as 20,000 or 30,000

And all this is just to preserve their main force.

Although the main force is not much.

As expected, the battle began to become one-sided.

Daqian's troops entered the battlefield like mowing grass, and killed many Yan troops in half an hour.

Wanyan Tielu cut his wrists to survive and finally escaped with Xiao Tianzhu.

"Build a fortress."

After opening his eyes, Xiao Tianzhu ignored the severe pain in his head and immediately grabbed Wanyan Tielu and spoke.

"Switch from offense to defense?"

"Yes, now the only thing we can rely on is the concrete wall!"

This was the final conclusion Xiao Tianzhu came to after several confrontations with Ye Shoujiang.

The opponent's strength is too strong.

Ye Shoujiang is simply a living military god, and his tactical level is probably close to that of the legendary Emperor Daqian.

If this continues, the situation will be beyond their control.

The only solution now is to use the concrete technology left behind by Qin Yue before he led his troops away.

Build city walls to resist Daqian's troops.

As long as the city wall can be built, even if they fight a war of attrition, they will not be embarrassed to the point of being chased and slaughtered!

The Yan Dynasty had endless resources, enough to support them in fighting a war of attrition.

"You're right. The solution now is to build a concrete wall!"

When things developed to this point, Wanyan Tielu and Xiao Tianzhu no longer wondered whether the technology Qin Yue provided was reliable.

For them now, this is the only option.

With this in mind, even Wanyan Tielu had no choice but to push these things forward first.

"The supplies Qin Yue arranged earlier are not enough, you..."

When talking about this, Wanyan Tielu suddenly spoke up and mentioned the resources that Qin Yue had used for the transaction before.

Qin Yue had previously tried to curry favor with the Wu family in order to obtain troops from them.

A batch of supplies was also specially arranged to be provided to Wanyan Tielu's troops for making concrete.

But the effect may not be as simple as imagined.

After all, what he provided was not much.

"Don't worry, I've already informed the family and even discussed these issues with the Yun family."

What Xiao Tianzhu is relying on recently is not just his own family.

And there is the Yun family.

Ever since becoming their right-hand man, Xiao Tianzhu and the Xiao family have always been clear about their position.

As long as they can help the Yun family resolve the war, their status will rise.

On the contrary, it will gradually decline and become a third-rate family.

That was a situation that the Xiao family absolutely could not accept.

It was precisely for the purpose of enabling his family to stand on its feet that Xiao Tianzhu worked so hard.

However, the gap in strength is too huge.

Sighing slowly, Xiao Tianzhu was ready to implement the most prudent plan and build the city wall as soon as possible.

On the other side, after the Yan army retreated, Ye Shoujiang, Heifu and Cao Chuan gathered at the foot of Huangfeng Mountain.

"Thank you for your hard work, both of you."

Ye Shoujiang looked at Cao Chuan with satisfaction, and patted Heifu's shoulder.

"General Ye, you've worked so hard. Thank you so much this time."

Heifu was very young and had little experience. Seeing the other party being so courteous, he quickly spoke up to express his attitude.

Hearing this, Cao Chuan was stunned for a moment.

But then he also said:

"General Ye, did you specifically arrange for me to be alone in the field this time?"

"Yes, you did a great job. The decision you made alone affected the outcome of the battle and killed nearly 100,000 enemy soldiers."

Ye Shoujiang nodded seriously and admitted that he had taken the postgraduate entrance examination for Cao Chuan.

In fact, Cao Chuan discovered it too late. Ye Shoujiang had already discovered that after Cao Chuan followed him to fight, he thought less about the battlefield.

So they put him directly on the battlefield and let him make his own decision in the chaos.

Although there were some risks, fortunately Cao Chuan performed well in the end.

Together with Heifu, they annihilated over 100,000 enemy troops.

"But General, don't you want credit?"

At this time, the younger Hei Fu suddenly spoke.

He found that the credit for annihilating the enemy was given to Cao Chuan, while the credit for blasting the mountain and burying countless troops was given to himself.

After all the hard work, Ye Shoujiang got nothing.

Instead, he was always helping them solve problems in the rear. Even the cannon fodder of the Yan army that Cao Chuan had let go along the way were dealt with by Ye Shoujiang with great effort.
