Chapter 280 Bauhinia City, Emperor Yan!

"Your Highness!"

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that I would be late. This battle was so majestic!"

In the canyon camp, Ning Fan stood quietly in front of the camp, looking at a figure walking in the distance, and greeted him with a smile: "The Duke is not late, it is just in time!"

"To recapture Xuanjian Pass, you still need to take charge of the overall situation!"

"Hahaha!"

Zhao Changying laughed heartily again. Zhao Huaiyuan and others behind him also bared their teeth at Ning Fan. Li Yan couldn't wait to speak: "Your Highness, where is my father?"

"Duke Jingguo has led his army to the north. Now the northern border is empty and there is no room for him to delay for too long."

As Ning Fan spoke, his eyes fell on a capable young man behind everyone. This man was more than seven feet tall, with a fierce face and flashing eyes, revealing a shrewd energy.

"Who is this?"

"Your Highness, this is the Lieutenant General of our Zhenguo Army, Lan Yu!"

"Implanted identity?"

Ning Fan murmured, but he didn't expect that the system would actually implant an identity into Lan Yu, a general of the Zhenguo Army.

"Lanyu meets Your Highness!"

"No need to be polite!"

Ning Fan waved slightly, without showing too much intimacy. There was a burst of rapid footsteps, and he saw a figure walking quickly. He bowed respectfully and said: "Report, Your Highness, Da Yan's remnant army is fighting desperately in the canyon. The rocks are blocking the way and we can’t attack it for a while!”

"Mountain rocks blockage!"

Ning Fan's eyes showed a sharp light, and he looked at Zhao Changying and said: "Now that Da Yan's remnant army has been defeated, we cannot give them a chance to breathe."

"Um!"

Zhao Changying also nodded with a serious look on his face. After being silent for a long time, he looked at Ning Fan and said, "Your Highness, is there any news about His Highness Prince Sheng?"

Ning Fan was silent, shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Da Yan does not have any information about the emperor's brother!"

"It seems to have been deliberately blocked!"

"His Royal Highness King Sheng?"

Ji Sui on the side had a condensed look on his face and looked at Zhao Changying: "Shuai Zhao, His Royal Highness Prince Sheng..."

Ji Sui led the new army all the way from the south of the Yangtze River, but did not receive any news about King Sheng. Now when he saw the expressions of the two of them, his eyes suddenly froze.

"His Royal Highness Sheng...died in battle at Xuanjian Guanxi, Xiaolingxiu Peak!"

"What!"

…

Da Yan.

Bauhinia City.

Imperial Garden.

"A bunch of trash!"

"My five hundred thousand soldiers, five hundred thousand!"

"What does Chen Zhaochong do for food?"

"ah?"

A series of angry shouts came from the palace, and the surrounding birds fluttered their wings in fright.

In the main hall, figures were kneeling on the ground, their foreheads pressed tightly to the ground, not even daring to take a deep breath.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

In the end, it was an old minister who spoke first and stepped forward to salute: "The Eastern Expedition was thwarted and most of my army of 500,000 was lost. Fortunately, Xuanjian Pass is still in our hands."

"As long as we hold Xuanjian Pass firmly, my Da Yan's army can march eastward at any time!"

"Besides, according to reports from the front line, Dayu actually dispatched frontier troops in the north this time. As a result, their northern border must be empty!"

"My old minister suggested that I send my troops to the northern border immediately and attack from the northern border of Yu the Great!"

As soon as the veteran minister finished speaking, there were echoes from the subordinates. Emperor Yan sat high on the dragon chair, narrowed his eyes, and gradually fell into deep thought.

"His Majesty!"

"Report from the front line, our Eastern Expeditionary Army was attacked last night, and Chen Shuai died in battle!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent!

"how so?"

"Chen Shuai is a battle-hardened veteran. Even if he is ambushed in a canyon, he should not lose his ability to fight back!"

"this……"

A series of noisy discussions resounded throughout the hall, but Emperor Yan's expression gradually calmed down, and a murderous intent suddenly flashed in his eyes!

"Do you have any good ideas?"

"Your Majesty, I suggest that we send troops quickly to help the eastern border!"

"Let Chang Qinghou come out of seclusion!"

"Yes, my old minister suggested that we let Marquis Shenwu send out troops. How dare a little Yu dare to offend my great power like this? He deserves to be destroyed!"

A series of indignant voices sounded, but suddenly another figure walked outside the hall and bowed respectfully!

"Your Majesty, Dali commanded an army of 200,000 men and defeated five of our cities last night!"

"Li Country!"

The expressions of the two old men standing in front of the hall changed, they looked at each other, and then looked at Emperor Yan who was standing above them!

"Your Majesty, the war in the eastern border can be delayed for three to five days, but in the southern border, we must not give Dali a chance to make a comeback!"

"Pass on my decree, let Marquis Changqing lead an army of 100,000 people to rush to the east to support the army, and Marquis Shenwu lead an army of 200,000 people and march south to attack Li!"

"According to the order!"

As soon as Emperor Yan finished speaking, all the ministers below him bowed in admiration. It wasn't until the figure on the high platform walked out of the hall that the sound of heavy breathing could be heard below.

…

"General, we can't hold on any longer!"

"Dayu has too many people. When we left the camp, we didn't bring many bows and arrows!"

"Withdraw!"

A general stood beside Yu Shang, looking at the densely packed figures on the other side of the canyon, and urged him anxiously.

"Not urgent!"

Yu Shang looked towards both sides of the canyon, and after noticing a figure moving around, she said in a deep voice: "Evacuate the canyon, send people to Xuanjian Pass quickly, notify the generals, and send troops to respond!"

"General, when General Lie led his troops back yesterday, they were also ambushed by a group of Dayu's cavalry, and nearly half of the 100,000-strong army was lost!"

"What!"

Yuchang's face suddenly changed, and there was a bit more solemnity in his eyes. He said in a deep voice: "It seems that this time, our 500,000 Eastern Expedition Army may only have one in ten left!"

"Soldiers, kill them!"

A rough shout came from a distance, and a square-faced general commanded the Yu army to charge, with a fierce face and a domineering tone!

"Damn it, if you can't turn over these stone pestles in an incense stick, you will be beaten by military sticks when you go back!"

"Charge!"

While Lan Yu shouted, he also took the lead to kill the enemy. For a while, all the Yu army was like a tiger descending from the mountain, fighting hard towards the remnants of Dayan's army!

"Kill them for me!"

Lan Yu rushed to the front with a curse, and the flaming spear in his hand opened and closed, instantly taking away several Dayan soldiers. Blood sprayed on his face, but he became more and more excited!

"Kill him!"

Not far away, Ran Min looked at the unruly figure, and couldn't help but curl his lips slightly. He looked at the general behind him and said playfully: "Interesting guy, take people to kill him, don't let this kid steal the limelight!"

"Yes!"

In just a short stick of incense, the Qihuo Army and the Zhenguo Army who came to help crossed the canyon together, chasing Dayan's soldiers all the way to Xuanjian Pass!

Ning Fan and Li Xiuning also brought the army to the front of the canyon. Looking at the corpses falling in the canyon, they whispered: "Send someone to collect the bodies of our soldiers, cremate them and bring them back to the capital!"

"Yes!"
