Famine Year: I Help the Beautiful Female General Build Infrastructure

A ceramic jar became sentient, knowledgeable of past and present. Wang Yan relied on this ceramic jar to befriend an ancient beautiful female general.

Her name was Tan Junyan, a legend of the...

Chapter 153 Gods descend and the situation reverses

"Gao Yufei usually has bad intentions, and this time he is even more desperate and wants to harm the coach.

“It’s so satisfying.”

"Yes, if we keep him alive, he will become a serious problem in the future. Young Master Wang's move is truly gratifying."

The soldiers of the Tan family cheered one after another, and everyone's face was filled with a look of great joy.

"Master Wang, your coming here is like giving us a reassurance."

"Once Gao Yufei is eliminated, those who were bewitched by him will no longer dare to stir up trouble. We can now focus on fighting against the Eighteen Princes."

Wang Yan smiled slightly and waved his hand, saying, "Dealing with an insignificant Gao Yufei is nothing. The eighteen princes are our main target."

"Can someone tell me the current situation of the eighteen princes?"

"Let me do it!" Tai Shidong volunteered, walked quickly to Wang Yan, and bowed respectfully first.

Then, he took out an animal skin map from his arms.

He placed it on the table beside Wang Yan, spread it out and pointed, saying, "God, look, all the roads leading to Pengshi City are stationed with a large number of soldiers."

"I've marked them all out in detail. There are 200,000 people on this road, 80,000 people on this small road, and 200,000 people on this road as well..."

"They are densely distributed everywhere and have surrounded us. The situation is extremely unfavorable for us."

"They are less than ten miles away from our Pengshi City and may launch a fierce attack at any time. And... there is also bad news!"

"Their number should be more than 1.8 million. According to the intelligence we received, many troops are on their way."

"They currently exceed two million, and at this rate, their number will sooner or later reach three million."

"And we have less than 300,000 available troops."

"The difference in numbers is so huge, almost ten times."

"Furthermore, the walls and other defensive structures of Pengshi City are far inferior to those of Pengshui City. Whether in height, thickness, or completeness, they are far inferior."

"It's very unfavorable for defense..."

Even veteran Cheng Yong grinned when he heard it.

Three million people? That’s too terrifying. It makes my scalp tingle just thinking about it.

Wang Yan frowned and nodded, then picked up the map and looked at it carefully.

After a moment, he pointed to a place and said, "Are there a million people stationed here?"

"Yes." Taishi Dong responded hurriedly.

"The Han and Long families are stationed here, and both have over 500,000 soldiers."

"Their two families are the most powerful among the eighteen princes. They are extremely similar in terms of military strength and prestige."

"It can be said that they are the leaders of the eighteen princes."

"And the two families have a good relationship. They station their troops in the same place and support each other, making them very difficult to deal with."

"So that's it!" Wang Yan nodded slightly.

After a moment's thought, he said, "I want to meet the two leaders of these families in person."

"Ah! Master Wang, you absolutely cannot do that..." Cheng Yong quickly spoke up to express his objection.

"The Han and Long families are eyeing us covetously, determined to capture Pengshi City. If you go there, won't you be walking into the tiger's mouth?"

"The two families combined have a million men. That's a massive force! Even if you have supernatural powers, you'll still encounter misfortune in such an environment!"

"Yes, Master Wang, this is too dangerous. They are not easy to deal with."

"They are all ambitious people who will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals."

"If you fall into their hands, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"You are our backbone. If anything happens to you, there will be no hope for Pengshi City."

"We can't let you take this risk..."

Everyone started to persuade him.

Everyone's face was filled with concern for Wang Yan's safety.

Deputy Commander Wei Guang stepped forward and said solemnly, "Young Master Wang, if you absolutely must contact them, let me go!"

"I'm willing to go through this for you. If the talks break down, you won't be implicated."

"You are too important to us to have any mistakes."

"Haha." Wang Yan laughed.

"When two countries are at war, they don't kill envoys. What's more, we are from the same country as them."

"If you insist on going for me, I have no objection, but I have one request."

Wang Yan said, looking at the others, "I have no objection to any of you going in my place, but you must be sure to recruit three million soldiers to surrender."

"If you don't even have this ability, don't argue with me, let alone stop me from going."

Everyone's expression changed drastically when they heard this.

What is he going to do?

Recruit three million soldiers to surrender!

Our current military strength is less than 300,000 and we are surrounded by the enemy. Even if we talk big, they will not surrender!
