    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1177

    Hanhai Dynasty, Wangcheng.

    "What did you say, King Yu was defeated?!"

    In the resplendent and resplendent hall, Crown Prince Zhang Yuanzhong was also shocked when he heard the report from the hidden guard.

    You must know that the Tiger Legion under King Yu's command has a full 200,000 soldiers, and it's only been less than a month, how could it be defeated.

    "What is the specific situation, please tell me in detail!"

    King Yu is a powerful supporter of the crown prince, and this time King Yu led the tiger army to go out, which was also facilitated by the crown prince.

    But now that King Yu was defeated in battle, he would surely come to fruition, and Crown Prince Zhang Yuanzhong naturally had a bad look on his face.

    "His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness Prince Yu led the Tiger Legion to attack Baima Pass. The guarding Qinghe Army fought tenaciously under the command of Chen Ziang. The battle was fierce from the very beginning. Our army, Nie Feng and Ma Long, took the lead and died."

    "Facing the unfavorable situation in the battle, His Royal Highness King Yu came to the battlefield in person and led his troops to attack fiercely. This opened up the situation and defeated the Qinghe army steadily."

    "But who would have expected that Chen Zi'ang of the Qinghe army was a ruthless man, and their retreat was just to confuse our army. They secretly buried a lot of firewood and kerosene all over the city."

    "After our army occupied every block, they suddenly set fire in the middle of the night, and our army hurriedly withdrew, but the gates were closed narrowly. Most of the troops were buried in the flames, and His Royal Highness Yu Wang also escaped by luck."

    After hearing the report from the hidden guard, Crown Prince Zhang Yuanzhong seemed to be in the scene and could perceive the extreme danger.

    "Chen Zi'ang was able to rise up in just a few years and defeat many powerful enemies in the Far East. He really deserves his reputation!"

    Hearing that the Qinghe Army led by Chen Ziang first defended to death, leading to the death of several of their generals, and then attacked with fire, killing their Tiger Legion in the sea of ??flames, Crown Prince Zhang Yuanzhong also had to admire Chen Ziang's ability to command the army.

    "King Yu was too careless this time, he deserved his defeat."

    Previously, the crown prince also felt that the Qinghe army was just taking advantage of the opportunity of the various armies in the Far East to conquer each other, and it was just luck.

    Therefore, everyone in Hanhai is full of contempt for the Qinghe army, thinking that as long as they attack with a large army, they will definitely be able to kill the Qinghe army.

    And now seeing that the 200,000 Tigers under King Yu's command were also defeated in the hands of the Qinghe Army, the crown prince realized that their opponent was not a mob, but a strong army that was not inferior to them.

    "Where is King Yu now?" Crown Prince Zhang Yuanzhong asked.

    "Reporting to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness has retreated to the front line of Lingqiu Mansion in Qingzhou at this moment. He has summoned the armed forces of various families in Qingzhou and the guards from all counties to prepare to block the attack of the Qinghe Army on the front line of Lingqiu Mansion." The dark guard replied.

    The Crown Prince was relieved to hear that King Yu did not flee in panic after his defeat at Baima Pass, but merely turned to defense.

    If King Yu was defeated at Baima Pass, then lost Qingzhou in a panic and fled back to the capital, it would be tantamount to not giving them time to react.

    It was obvious that King Yu was not a dead man, at least he knew how to turn to defense and gather all kinds of troops to hold off the Qinghe army in Qingzhou, so as to give them time to react.

    "Send a message to King Yu, telling him to defend the front line of Lingqiu Mansion at all costs. If the defense line of Lingqiu falls, even I will not be able to save him."

    "yes!"

    After receiving the order from the crown prince, the dark guard quickly withdrew from the hall and left.

    "Reporting to His Royal Highness, there is an urgent battle report from the front line."

    As soon as the dark guard left, a chief eunuch rushed into the hall with small steps.

    "pass¡ª¡ª"

    "yes!"

    Soon, a travel-worn Hanhai officer was led into the main hall by an eunuch.

    This Hanhai regiment was sent back to Wangcheng by Yu Wang Zhang Yuande, and his main task was to report the situation on the front line to the crown prince.

    King Yu is a staunch supporter of the crown prince. After he was defeated in the front line, he knew that the only one who could protect him was the crown prince, so he did not dare to hide anything from the crown prince, and reported the truth to the crown prince.

    After hearing the report from the Hanhai officer, Crown Prince Zhang Yuanzhong still had a lot of affection for King Yu, at least he didn't hide himself.

    "Go back and tell you, King Yu, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, don't worry about it, the most urgent thing now is to hold offThe counterattack of the Hehe Army bought time for the court.  "

    After the crown prince explained to the Hanhai officer again, he waved him away.

    After the Hanhai officer left, the crown prince urgently summoned his second assistants Xiong Tianfei, Liao Chun, Qi Liang and others in his camp to discuss the countermeasures for the defeat of Baima Pass.

    After Cifu Xiong Tianfei and the others heard that the front line was defeated, their complexions became extremely ugly, because this was a serious blow to their camp.

    But Yu Wang, as a military leader in their camp, naturally cannot be pushed down, so he has to be protected.

    "The Tiger Legion's defeat at Baima Pass was caused by generals Nie Feng, Ma Long and others who underestimated the enemy and acted without authorization. It should have nothing to do with His Royal Highness Yuwang."

    "I think Nie Feng, Ma Long and others should be held accountable for their defeat!" Second Assistant Liao Chun also echoed.

    "You mean to shift the blame for the defeat to Nie Feng, Ma Long and others?" Crown Prince Zhang Yuanzhong said.

    "His Royal Highness, they have all died in battle. Even if they were wronged, they are dead after all. I don't think anyone is more suitable to bear the responsibility of defeat than them." Qi Liang, the second assistant, also said.

    "That's fine."

    Although the crown prince Zhang Yuanzhong felt that doing so was a bit unfair, after all, what they need now is to lose the car and protect the car.

    As long as King Yu is preserved, it will be enough to rebuild the Tiger Legion in the future. They will spend some money and time at worst.

    However, if King Yu is taken down, they will lose an important supporter in the military, so no matter what, they must keep King Yu.

    When the crown prince was discussing with the important ministers of his own camp how to shirk nature and keep the honor of the military important ministers, in a luxurious mansion in Wangcheng, a fair-skinned young man also learned about the situation on the front line.

    This fair-skinned young man is none other than Zhang Yuandong, the second prince of the Hanhai Dynasty.

    "Brother is shooting himself in the foot this time."

    Knowing that the 200,000 army of Yu Wang, the capable general under his elder brother's command, had been wiped out, the second prince not only did not feel the slightest sadness, but showed a gloating smile on the contrary.

    The crown prince is committed to letting King Yu lead the army to expand the territory, and also to accumulate prestige for himself to formally inherit the great rule.

    Although he is now able to handle some state affairs with full authority, this is also a training for him by the emperor. Although he handles general affairs well, he has not achieved good results after all.

    If he could expand his territory and achieve results during this exercise, then it would be a sure thing for him to inherit the throne.

    However, with the destruction of the Tigers on the front line, the Crown Prince fell into an extremely passive position.

    "Spread the news of the Tigers' defeat on the front line, especially the families of the Tigers' soldiers, we must incite them and create pressure from public opinion."

    "Mobilize the officials to impeach King Yu, and spread the matter of his previous seizure of land and private plundering of civilian women. This time, we must completely remove King Yu!"

    Although the second prince knew that this incident alone would not be able to shake the crown prince's position, it was possible to take the opportunity to get rid of his right and left arm.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
