Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Listening to his description of the situation on the scene, Hei Fu said in a low voice:

"It's all my fault. If I had sent the things here earlier..."

"We're playing away from home, which is normal. I heard that His Majesty has already started. If we can hold on for a few more days, we'll be able to relax."

"Ah."

When he said this, there was not much relief on Heifu's face.

No one knows how many reserve soldiers the Yan Dynasty royal family has.

If it's beyond their ability to bear, things will get bad.

It seemed as if she saw his hesitation.

Cao Chuan stepped forward and patted Hei Fu's armor, which had not been cleaned for several days, with his hands covered in dried blood. He said:

"How many Yan troops do you think Your Majesty can dislodge with his 50,000-man army?"

"...Three hundred thousand?"

Hei Fu's eyes flickered, and he finally reported a number with a guilty conscience.

In military warfare, there are very few battles where the outnumbered side defeats the larger one.

Every time such a war occurs, it is worthy of being recorded in history.

Therefore, even though Heifu graduated from the military academy with the first place, he did not dare to speak too big.

"Haha, do you know what I guessed?"

When Cao Chuan heard the number 300,000, he burst out laughing.

"How many?"

"At least a million!"

"You are still too naive, kid. In my heart, His Majesty is a more ruthless person than General Ye."

Cao Chuan said earnestly.

"So you don't have to worry that His Majesty can't help us relieve the pressure."

"Let's take a step back and say that even if His Majesty really can't help us, he'll just die on the battlefield. Speaking of which, have you found a wife yet?"

Cao Chuan put his arm around Hei Fu's shoulders and said with a smile.

Heifu's skinny body suddenly stiffened, and he felt a little embarrassed.

"Have."

"That's fine, is there a future?"

"There is three."

"You kid, you're quite impressive. At this age..."

Cao Chuan's eyes widened and he immediately gave a thumbs up.

"It was arranged by the family. Each wife has one child."

Kurofushi sighed.

Cao Chuan's eyes widened a little.

"What? How rich are you to marry three people?"

"Um……"

Cao Chuan was silent, as if his worries were unnecessary.

He curled his lips helplessly and turned around to go back to rest. Before leaving, he muttered:

"I'd better think about what to do if I die on the battlefield. It's just a waste of time."

With Cao Chuan's interruption, Hei Fu finally felt a little relieved.

Returning to the trench he had dug in the wilderness, he took out the battle map and studied it carefully.

It is impossible for the existing forces to continue to fight Xiao Tianzhu here.

The other party just wants to waste time and build those concrete walls.

But how to stop them?

Thinking of this, Heifu fell into deep thought.

Soon, he thought of a way.

"Send a telegram to General Liu, telling him to stop the attack and try to bomb the Yan army's remaining walls along the route."

"But General, this will put General Liu in danger."

All his men hesitated for a moment.

They know it's good to do so.

It can delay the actions of the Yan army to a great extent.

But there is also a big problem, that is, Liu Chuang now needs to face all the troops stationed on the opponent's defense line.

Originally, he only needed to break in and disrupt the situation.

Now we have to bite the bullet and attack the areas where the enemy has accumulated troops.

You can imagine the pressure they are under.

"No, the Yan army's current manpower may not be able to protect those city walls."

Hei Fu took a deep breath and said firmly.

"Why do you say that, General?"

"Because His Majesty is in the east, he will make the Yan army too busy to take care of themselves."

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

"That makes sense."

"Okay, let's go deliver the letter."

As long as the follow-up troops of the Yan army do not come up, Liu Chuang will not be under much pressure.

Just as Heifu was releasing the news.

Yun Wenxun suddenly appeared from behind.

"Black General."

"Master Yun, what are you doing here?"

Since the battlefield stabilized, the Yun family was arranged to the rear, specifically responsible for managing the logistics of the Daqian troops.

They provided food, weapons and equipment, as well as some basic gunpowder.

When he saw Yun Wenxun on the battlefield today, Heifu thought something had happened.

But I heard Yun Wenxun say:

"I came here to ask you or General Cao to accompany me to see someone."

"Who?"

"Yan Shuo, the ninth prince of the Yan royal family."

When he heard these words, Heifu's face suddenly froze.

"What does it mean that the Yun family is still contacting the Yan royal family at this time?"

"General, don't panic. The Yan royal family is not a monolithic entity. The Ninth Prince is our collaborator."

Seeing that Heifu looked unhappy, Yun Wenxun beside him quickly began to explain.

Hearing this, Hei Fu suddenly asked in confusion:

"That's not right. If we are allies, doesn't that mean that the Ninth Prince Yan Shuo needs to help us fight against the Yan royal family?"

"That's not the case. To be precise, it's to deal with the Third Prince Yan Zheng."

Yun Wenxun slowly explained.

According to his description, the current Emperor of Yan has not yet determined the candidate for the crown prince, but has been continuously assessing the princes under him for many years.

At this time, the advantages of having many children become apparent.

In order to show off in front of their father, Emperor Yan's dozens of children have been managing their territories in an orderly manner for many years.

The Emperor of Yan could do whatever he wanted with just a simple order.

But it is useless to rely solely on this method to manage the fiefdom under your command, because everyone's fiefdom is similar and the effort they can exert is also similar.

This is the time to take sides.

So the entire dynasty was divided into three factions.

The leader is the second prince Yan Wujiang, who holds a large number of troops and now even controls several arsenals.

The second is the faction headed by the third prince Yan Zheng, who has a good relationship with everyone in the court, has worked hard for many years, and has many supporters.

The last one is the most special.

She was the first princess of the Yan Dynasty and a member of the Tiance Princess faction.

Princess Tiance does not have much power, but it is said that she has unspeakable relationships with some high-ranking officials of the Yan Dynasty.

This woman's means of manipulating people's hearts are extremely terrifying, and many men under her are devoted to her.

The Ninth Prince is a supporter of the Second Prince Yan Wujiang.

Faced with Yan Zheng who rushed to the western defense line alone, he naturally wanted to do something behind the scenes, preferably to put Yan Zheng into an irretrievable situation.

"According to what you said, Yan Wujiang has already gone to deal with His Majesty?"

"Yes, but this does not conflict with dealing with the Third Prince Yan Zheng."

Yun Wenxun patted his chest and made the promise.

The royal family of the Yan Dynasty all controlled an independent fiefdom.

It is enough for them to be worthy of the management within their own fiefdom. As for the land outside the fiefdom, they will be ruthlessly used as a tool to fight for power.

They don't care how many people die.

"If you don't believe me, you can go with me to meet the Ninth Prince first, and then we can discuss the terms."

Yun Wenxun saw Hei Fu lost in thought and invited him again.

Hei Fu sighed and said:

"I really don't understand the way you Yan Dynasty people act. Let me ask His Majesty."

After saying this, he turned around and sent a telegram to Qin Ming.

At the same time, he also sent someone to the rear to contact Cao Chuan, who had just gone to rest, to hear his opinion.

Yun Wenxun nodded and added:

"If you are still worried after asking, I can bring the Ninth Prince here."

"Are you so anxious?"

Hei Fu suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.

The Ninth Prince seemed to be in a hurry to complete this task.
