Zhao Hao's eyes flashed, and he asked curiously: "Prince, but what?"

King Xiaoyao smiled and said, "However, my lord, do you think there is a possibility that Da Gan can't take the capital of Yue Kingdom at all?"

Zhao Hao was startled, and said calmly: "How can the capital of Yue Kingdom resist the attack of my 200,000-strong army?"

“I really can’t imagine it.”

King Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Nothing in this world is certain."

"My Lord, please follow my thoughts and imagine it for a moment."

"If Da Gan's 200,000 troops not only fail to capture the Yue Kingdom's capital, but are also entangled and unable to escape from Yue Kingdom in a short time."

"What will be the consequences?"

Zhao Hao said: "If that is the case... the pressure on Luoye City, Tongshan City, and Jianning City will increase infinitely."

“Maybe, there will be some risk of falling.”

When King Xiaoyao heard him say this, he burst into laughter.

“Hahahahahaha…”

Zhao Hao said, "Your Majesty, I overestimated your country, Wu, and Southern Chu when I said there was a slight risk of collapse."

Upon hearing this, King Xiaoyao frowned and said, "It seems that the Lord is very confident!"

"But there's no use bluffing!"

"The reason why I want to meet you is because the Empress of Shu really appreciates your talent."

"I can't bear to see such a great talent like the Lord perish along with Da Gan."

"Therefore, I want to give you some good advice before the war begins."

Zhao Hao nodded and said softly, "I would like to thank your Majesty the Empress of your country and thank you for your appreciation, Your Highness."

"However, Zhao really can't see any sign that my big effort will fail."

"I can only let down the Empress of your country and your kindness, Your Majesty!"

King Xiaoyao nodded, sighed, and said, "Well, I have said what I should say."

"Since the Lord is stubborn and refuses to change, there is nothing we can do except to see the truth on the battlefield!"

Zhao Hao stopped, bowed to King Xiaoyao, and said, "Then Zhao will wait for the prince to attack the city!"

After saying this, he stopped looking at King Xiaoyao and turned around to walk back.

Looking at Zhao Hao's receding figure, King Xiaoyao frowned again.

Back in the city, at the City Lord's Mansion, Zhao Hao called all the generals to his presence.

"Everyone, the Shu army may attack the city at any time. You must be prepared for the battle!"

Upon hearing this, the leading officer immediately bowed and said, "Don't worry, sir. We have been waiting for a long time."

"As long as the Shu army dares to attack the city, we will definitely let them see once again how powerful my army is!"

Zhao Hao smiled slightly and said, "Very good, this kind of unstoppable and invincible momentum is what we want!"

"Past battles have proven that the Shu army is just a lamb to be slaughtered in front of my Da Gan army!"

"And every one of my soldiers is a tiger or a wolf."

"Go get ready!"

After everyone left, Zhao Hao began to recall King Xiaoyao's words again.

"What on earth did that old man mean by those words?"

"I led an army of nearly 200,000 and surrounded the imperial capital of Yue. It was a completely one-sided battle."

"It is impossible for Yue to defend itself."

"But from what he said, it seems that he is very confident that Yue can hold on."

“This is not right!”

“Where does his confidence come from?”

Zhao Hao was a little confused.

But.

Judging from the old guy's expression when he said this, he seemed very confident.

Not only can we defend the Yue Kingdom's capital, but we can also keep our 200,000 strong army firmly within the Yue Kingdom, preventing them from returning to the country in time.

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out why King Xiaoyao dared to be so sure and say such a thing.

Taking a deep breath, he looked up at Wu Song and said, "Brother Wu, bring me the map of Yue!"

After his Anbu was formed, the first task was to draw detailed maps of various countries.

This is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive task.

It took him nearly three years to complete the project, and it was not until he went to Luoye City this time that he finally finished it and delivered the map to him.

He brought it directly.

Wu Song nodded, hurried to the side, took the detailed map of Yue State, and spread it out on the desk.

Zhao Hao first found the imperial capital of Yue State, and then found Xuancheng, an important city in the south.

Then, they headed eastward and found the place where Xiao Chuyun led his army in a decisive battle with the Southern Army of Yue State.

Then, he drew a thick circle with charcoal at the location of the Yue Kingdom's imperial capital and dotted it several times.

"The Southern Army of Yue was defeated by my brother in one battle. The remnants of the defeated army have fled in all directions and are completely unable to form a fighting force."

"Now, there are only 150,000 troops left in the imperial capital."

"But even with the support of the Imperial Capital, these 150,000 people can never be my opponent!"

"Where does King Xiaoyao's confidence come from?"

"Is he bluffing me?"

Zhao Hao immediately shook his head. Something was wrong. There was no need for King Xiaoyao to bluff in front of him.

Even if you want to shake his fighting spirit, you won't say such nonsense.

But why is he so sure?

Looking at the map, Zhao Hao still didn't understand what King Xiaoyao meant.

So, he stopped thinking about it.

It is more important to defend the city.

At midnight, the Shu army camp outside the city was still quiet.

There was no sign of a siege.

However, two hours after midnight, the belly of the fish in the east turned slightly white.

Finally, the sound of war drums was heard outside the city.

The Shu army finally began to attack the city!

Zhao Hao climbed out of bed, put on his armor, and immediately climbed to the top of the city wall with Wusong.

I saw the Shu army below rushing up madly like a tide.

The first batch of Shu troops carried ladders and placed them on the city wall, and then countless soldiers began to climb up along the ladders.

The catapults behind kept throwing bombs.

The thunder bomb fell on the city wall, and explosions sounded one after another.

With the explosion of sky bombs, soldiers defending the city were constantly blown away, killed or injured!

Seeing this, Zhao Hao quickly gave orders loudly: "Everyone, don't panic, act according to the original plan!"

In fact, without his orders, the soldiers had already acted quickly.

He had already made a plan for this situation.

That is, using sacks, they set up hiding places on the city walls.

The sacks would block the flying debris from the explosion of the thunder bomb.

In this way, many injuries can be avoided.
