As a general following the Sea King, I am afraid that the final fate of myself is foreseeable...

Thinking of this, Yuan Yao shuddered all over and quickly retreated. After being pushed to a safe place, he stood up and gave an order with a stern face, "Immediately dispatch 30,000 troops to resist the Chu King's army. We swear to defend Chaocheng to the death, otherwise the fate of Jincheng Haiwang's army will be our fate!"

As soon as these words were spoken, expressions of astonishment and fear flashed across the faces of all the Sea King's soldiers. The news that King Chen and King Chu had buried alive 400,000 of the Chu King's soldiers had already spread throughout Western Chu. As they were also members of the Sea King's soldiers, how could they not know about it?

For a moment, the morale of the Sea King's army was greatly boosted. The archers immediately came to the back of the city wall without fear of death and shot arrows at the Chu King's army under the city tower. The rest of the Sea King's army continued to carry up the stones that had been prepared under the city tower for the Chu King's army to use when they used ladders to attack the city.

The entire imperial city tower suddenly fell into a tense battle preparation. Yuan Yao was personally guarding the tower. Seeing the soldiers' morale was greatly boosted, Yuan Yao immediately ordered the guards around him, "Bring Qu Feiqing up to me with her hands tied behind her back! I don't believe Chu Nanshan dares to attack Qu Feiqing! If he dares to shoot an arrow at her, and then bring Xiahou An'er up here, I will see whether Chu Nanshan still has the wisdom to live this life."

The guard took the order and quickly ran down the tower...

Meanwhile, inside the city, a chase and fight was also going on...

The deputy general chased to the place where Han Che and others hid their bodies, but found that it was just an empty alley. The people who had clearly run into the alley disappeared before their eyes.

The deputy general frowned and ordered, "Everyone, divide into small teams and search house by house. We must find those thieves."

"Yes!" The Sea King's army behind them immediately split up and took action, kicking open the doors of the people's homes one by one and forcing their way in to search.

Suddenly, the originally quiet alley was filled with the sounds of crying, cursing, tumbling and smashing things...

The deputy general, accompanied by his guards, walked into a house...

"Don't move!" Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped through the courtyard gate, the deputy general and his guards were captured by Han Che and his men who were hiding behind the gate. A dagger was placed on their necks, piercing their bones. Han Che's deliberately lowered voice rang in his ears, "Tell me, where are Qu Feiqing and the others being held captive?"

"Don't even think about it!" The deputy general had followed Yuan Yao since childhood and was naturally loyal to him. How could he betray his master just because he was threatened? After he finished his stubborn reply, he planned to shout loudly to attract the rest of the Sea King's army.

Unexpectedly, Han Che's face was cold at this moment. When he heard the deputy general refused to tell the whereabouts of Qu Feiqing and others, he covered his mouth and nose with his left hand without saying a word, and cut his throat with the dagger in his right hand without hesitation...

A column of blood spurted out, instantly shocking the rest of the guards...

Seeing how ruthless these night raiders were, everyone was filled with fear and tried hard to create distance between their necks and the blades. However, the assassins who were holding them were very skilled and could not make them move. After struggling for a while, they were exhausted and stopped.

"Speak! If you don't, his fate will be yours!" Han Che realized he had been in the city for over an hour. If he didn't find Qu Feiqing and the others' hiding place, they would be in great danger after daybreak. Therefore, his words were more subdued than before, and they were filled with a chilling murderous intent.

The guards watched as the deputy general opened his eyes and fell to the ground. The yellow earth beneath him was instantly dyed red by the blood flowing from his throat. They were already terrified. To save their lives, they all rushed to reply, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you..."

Han Che pointed the dagger in his hand at a guard and said, "You say!"

After receiving Han Che's order, the guard hurriedly said, "I'll tell you, the three of them are being held in different places. I have a map with their hiding places marked on it. Since I'm responsible for delivering their meals every day, therefore..."

However, before he could finish his words, his throat was cut by the dagger in the assassin's hand.

Seeing this, the others whimpered and accused Han Che and others of going back on their word. However, this struggle only lasted for a very short time. In the blink of an eye, all the captured Sea King soldiers were quickly dealt with.

"Hai Quan, that old fox, actually detained three people separately!" Han Che took the map that the assassin had found from the guard and frowned slightly as he looked at the three locations on it. He then pointed to the location on the map where Han Yu was hiding and said to Han Jing, "Father, you go and rescue Yu'er. The rest of us will split into two groups to rescue Xiahou An'er and Qu Feiqing. Right now, the old prince is leading Yuan Yao over to the city for us. We must hurry."

Han Jing quickly scanned the map and suddenly discovered a serious problem. He immediately retorted, "No, the place where Xiahou An'er and Qu Feiqing are imprisoned is closer to the city wall. It would be more dangerous to rescue them than to rescue Yu'er. I'll lead the team..."

"Wow..." Han Che put away the map before Han Jing pointed to the other two places. His face was cold and he said, "It's decided. No need to discuss it anymore to avoid wasting time! After rescuing Yu'er, you will return along the same route and leave Chaocheng first. Don't wait for us."

After saying this, Han Che left a team of death warriors to assist Han Jing, and he led the remaining guards to change into the clothes of the dead Sea King soldiers on the ground and then left through the back door of the courtyard...

The closer they got to the city wall, the more obvious the sound of muskets from the front became. Han Che couldn't help but admire Chu Nanshan in his heart. If he hadn't taken out the musket a few days ago, they would never have survived the siege of Yuan Yao tonight.

"Master, this way!" When they reached the foot of the city wall, the assassin holding a map pointed to the road ahead and spoke.

Han Che nodded slightly, and ran with everyone else towards an unremarkable bungalow at the foot of the city wall...

Fortunately, everyone's attention is now drawn to the Chu King's army outside the city. Even under the city wall, the defense is much more relaxed than before.

Han Che and others broke into the room effortlessly and saw Xiahou An'er tied to a wooden pillar. Her mouth was stuffed with rags and her clothes were dirty and torn. She was a far cry from the brightly dressed Princess Xiahou in the past.

Hearing the sound of the wooden door being kicked open, Xiahou An'er quickly raised her head and looked towards the door. Seeing that it was Han Che and the others, Xiahou An'er immediately sobbed and wanted to scream...

Han Che walked quickly into the house, and with a flick of the sword in his hand, he cut the rope that bound Xiahou An'er. Then he handed Xiahou An'er to the assassin, and immediately turned around and walked out the door, rushing to another place to rescue Qu Feiqing.

"Han Che!" Seeing the urgency in Han Che's eyes, Xiahou An'er quickly removed the rag from her mouth. Regardless of the pain in her throat, she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Sister Qu has been taken to the city wall. If we don't hurry there, I'm afraid the Sea King's army will use her as a target!"

Hearing this, Han Che was shocked. He turned around and glanced at Xiahou An'er, saying softly, "Thank you!"

Then he quickly turned around and continued to send a signal into the night sky. Han Che led his assassins and rushed towards the city wall...

"Charge..." At this time, under the city wall of Chaocheng, Chu Nanshan had raised the sword in his hand and shouted loudly to give orders to the infantry of the King of Chu's army standing behind him.

Tens of thousands of infantrymen instantly rushed towards the city gate, shields and spears in hand...

"Oh no! The Chu King's army has begun its attack!" The Sea King's soldiers on the city wall were startled by the deafening momentum below, and immediately drew their bows and shot arrows even faster...

Yuan Yao saw that Chu Nanshan was serious this time, and he was furious. He quickly walked to Qu Feiqing, grabbed her long hair that had already fallen behind her, and pulled her to the edge of the city wall. He shouted to Chu Nanshan below the city wall, "Chu Nanshan, look who this is?"

In the chaos of the battle, the Chu army looked up at the city wall and saw a disheveled woman standing in the uniform of the Sea King Army.

Although the woman's hair was disheveled, her clothes were dirty, and her face was already stained, all this could not conceal her ladylike temperament and beautiful and elegant appearance.

Chu Nanshan recognized at a glance that the woman being pushed out was Qu Lingao's biological daughter - Qu Feiqing.

Seeing that Qu Feiqing, a weak woman, was pushed to the front of the battle by Yuan Yao at this time, it was obvious that the other party had sinister intentions and despicable means. For a moment, the Chu King's army was furious, and anger flashed in the eyes of all the soldiers. They wished they could kill Yuan Yao, who had held Qu Feiqing hostage, on the spot.

Chu Nanshan immediately raised his hand and decisively ordered the soldiers to suspend the siege. He sat upright on his horse, looking up at Yuan Yao, who was grinning sinisterly on the city wall, and said in a deep voice, "You actually pushed a woman into the battle line! Yuan Yao, you are nothing but a coward! You are exactly like your master!"

Inside and outside the city, which was as quiet as a nunnery, Chu Nanshan's sonorous and powerful voice of accusation echoed for a long time.

After hearing Chu Nanshan's scolding, Yuan Yao didn't get angry. Instead, he sneered, "Chu Nanshan, you are no longer the King of Western Chu. What qualifications do you have to lead troops to fight? Have you been coveting the Nine Dragon Throne in the capital for a long time? Have you ever thought about being an emperor? Humph, marching and fighting are all about winning. To achieve victory, what means can't be used? Stop your nonsense! Otherwise, I will make Concubine Qu bleed on the battlefield!"

"I want to see how you can make Miss Qu bleed on the battlefield? If you have the guts, just push her off the city wall!" Unexpectedly, Chu Nanshan was even more arrogant. Not only did he not care that Qu Feiqing might die on the spot, he also gave Yuan Yao a choice, asking him to push Qu Feiqing off the city wall.

"Chu Nanshan, you..." Yuan Yao was speechless for a moment, and pulled the hand that was holding Qu Feiqing's hair forward suddenly.

"Dong..." The crisp sound of a head hitting the city wall suddenly echoed in the quiet space. In the light of the fire, a streak of blood instantly appeared on Qu Feiqing's flawless forehead. The bright red blood quickly slid down her cheek and flowed down along the smoky gray stone of the city wall...

Even so, despite the immense pain in her body, Qu Feiqing gritted her teeth and did not utter a single cry of pain in front of the thousands of Chu King's soldiers.

The fact that a little girl could actually do this made all the Chu army soldiers under the city wall look at her with admiration, while at the same time they showed contempt and indignation towards Yuan Yao and others.

"Hmph, do you think I will fall for your trick? The soldiers of King Chu are all under the city wall. Even if I push Qu Feiqing off the city wall, I am afraid that the soldiers of King Chu will definitely rescue her!" Yuan Yao laughed wildly, and his arrogance made people irritated.

Then he gently stroked Qu Feiqing's face with his other hand, pressing his rough fingertips hard on her skin as tender as an egg. He flirted with her in front of all the Chu army without any mercy: "Such a beautiful woman is just right for our soldiers to relieve their fatigue! Chu Nanshan, if you have nothing to do, why not come and admire her here. By the way, besides Qu Feiqing, there is also Xiahou An'er in the city. I believe the princess of the Xiahou clan is even more attractive!"

After he finished speaking, Yuan Yao laughed again, and the Sea King's soldiers on the city wall also laughed when they saw this.

For a moment, the empty night sky was filled with lingering wild laughter, which was chilling to the ears.

"Bang!" Unexpectedly, with the Sea King's army having the upper hand, someone still dared to fire a gun at this moment.

Hearing the sound, Chu Nanshan frowned and looked sharply at the gunmen hiding in the dark, but found that everyone was hiding in the dark following orders and no one fired a gun without permission.

Seeing this, Chu Nanshan reacted instantly and shouted in the air without saying a word, "Continue the attack!"

The sound of chopping and killing rang out again...

At this time, there was chaos on the city wall. No one in the Sea King's army noticed where the loud noise came from. They saw that Yuan Yao, who had just been standing behind the city wall, had been hit in the shoulder. The huge impact knocked him back and he fell on the city wall, and countless strands of Qu Feiqing's hair were pulled out.

"General!" Seeing Yuan Yao's pale face and blood oozing from the gaps between his right fingers as he pressed against his left shoulder, the surrounding guards were horrified and rushed forward to surround Yuan Yao.

At this moment, dozens of figures dressed in the uniforms of the Sea King Army rushed towards Qu Feiqing who was excluded...

Qu Feiqing felt a pain in her wrist and fell into a gentle chest. Startled, she looked up immediately, only to find that the man holding her in his arms was Han Che, who had a murderous look on his face. Before she could stop herself from screaming, she immediately raised her other hand to cover her lips, with an unconcealable shock in her eyes.

Han Che quickly glanced at the situation on the tower. Seeing that the Sea King's army was too numerous to stay here any longer, he glanced at Yuan Yao, who was several people away, with murderous eyes. He pursed his lips tightly, but firmly grasped Qu Feiqing's wrist, intending to take her down from the tower...

"Catch them, don't let him take the people away!" Unexpectedly, after taking a few steps, Yuan Yao's gritting teeth shouting sounded behind him.

In an instant, tens of thousands of Sea King's soldiers on the city wall surrounded Han Che and others, and the stairs were surrounded by Sea King's soldiers. In addition, countless Sea King's soldiers continued to rush up to the city wall, intending to capture Han Che and others alive.

More and more assassins fell around them, and the gunpowder in their guns was exhausted. Han Che hugged Qu Feiqing and retreated to the inner wall of the city...

In front of them were tens of thousands of Sea King soldiers, and behind them were towering city walls dozens of feet high. The two of them had no way to retreat...

Chu Nanshan, who had been paying attention to the movements on the city wall, frowned when he found that Han Che and Qu Feiqing were in desperate situation.

He immediately gave orders to the troops behind him. While the Sea King's army's attention was drawn to Han Che, hundreds of soldiers immediately spurred their horses and rushed towards the city gate...

"Be careful!" Along with Qu Feiqing's scream, Han Che's right arm was cut by the sword, and his winter clothes were torn by the sharp blade, revealing the scarlet flesh and white bones inside. In just a blink of an eye, the sleeve of Han Che's right arm was stained with blood, looking extremely terrifying.

But even in this situation, Han Che still gritted his teeth and remained firm, holding the sword tightly in his hand...

The pain in his arm only made his nerves more alert, and his movements towards the enemies around him became more agile and fast...

"Ah..." He thrust out his sword, the tip of the sword instantly piercing the left eye of a Sea King soldier. The guard immediately covered his left eye and screamed...

The Sea King's army, which had originally surrounded the two and planned to capture them alive, became frightened when they saw their companions end up like this and saw Han Che's murderous look on his face. No one dared to step forward. Everyone stood there in a stalemate, and there was no progress for a long time.

"A bunch of idiots, there are only two of them left, why don't you dare to step forward!" At this time, Yuan Yao's scolding was heard outside the encirclement.

Seeing this, Han Che suddenly tightened his arms around Qu Feiqing's waist, bent his knees slightly, and actually jumped down from the towering city wall while holding Qu Feiqing...

"Shoot, shoot them to death!" Seeing that he could not capture them alive, Yuan Yao immediately ordered all archers to shoot at the two people who were falling rapidly.

"Hurry up and provide cover, shoot and arrows to kill the archers on the city wall!" Chu Nanshan on the other side spoke even faster. Suddenly, there was a hail of bullets at the city gate. Countless soldiers of the Sea King were shot and fell off the city wall, their bodies smashed beyond recognition.

"Give it to me!" Seeing that the Chu King's army was gradually showing signs of suppressing the Sea King's army, Yuan Yao, regardless of his bleeding left shoulder, snatched the bow and arrow from the archer's hand, then aimed at the two figures falling from the city wall and suddenly shot the arrow in his hand...

"Whoosh..." A powerful sound of breaking through the air came from the air...

"Puchi..." In the blink of an eye, it hit Han Che's right shoulder.

Qu Feiqing felt Han Che's body suddenly tremble, and the force on her waist increased significantly, making her breathless. Han Che's right hand, which had been holding the sword, dropped at this moment, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground below the city wall.

"Han Che..." As soon as she opened her mouth, a gust of cold wind rushed into her mouth, choking Qu Feiqing and making her face turn red.

Han Che gritted his teeth, and when the two were about to fall to the ground, he kicked the city wall with his feet at the right time, slowing down their descent.

Upon seeing this, the Chu army that had been waiting under the city wall gathered together and opened their arms to catch the two men.

Han Che placed Qu Feiqing in front of him, held the reins with his left hand, and led the troops to retreat quickly towards Chu Nanshan.

'Swoosh...' Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was another sound of an arrow flying in the air. The force used by the archer was so great that it could be heard instantly from the sound of the arrow breaking through the air.

Qu Feiqing only felt a strong gust of wind coming towards her. Before she could come to her senses, she was already being pushed onto the horse's back. At the same time, the sound of an arrow piercing her skin rang in her ears, and a warm liquid splashed on the side of her face...

"Che'er..." A startled roar came from not far away. Han Jing, who was on horseback, burst into tears and whipped the horse under him wildly as he ran towards Han Che.

Qu Feiqing turned her head stiffly, only to see Han Che's right hand, with strength from nowhere, firmly pressing down on her back, preventing her from lifting her body. A long sword, with only the end of an arrow remaining, was stuck in his chest. Seeing that Qu Feiqing was unharmed, Han Che suddenly revealed a relieved smile, but his body fell straight off his horse...

"Han Che..." Qu Feiqing shouted, wanting to reach out and grab Han Che's hand, but she only had time to grab the air in front of her.

Fortunately, Qibing, who was guarding on the side, caught Han Che's body, thus avoiding the danger of Han Che falling off the horse.

One of the soldiers immediately grabbed Qu Feiqing's horse and quickly returned to the group with her. The rest of the soldiers carefully protected Han Che and rushed directly to the Chu King's northwest camp. Han Jing and the rescued Han Yu each rode a warhorse, following closely behind Han Che...

The sound of cavalry trampling through the dust was heard, and Chu Nanshan's expression suddenly became extremely cold. He gripped the reins tighter, and looked in the direction of the cavalry with a sharp gaze, his eyes suddenly darkening.

Chu Nanshan instantly picked up the bow and arrow hanging on his horse's back and shot an arrow in the direction he was looking at. The force of the bow was so strong that even Yuan Yao on the city wall could hear it.

A sound of "Dang" was heard, and it was obvious that the person who was shot had used his sword to block Chu Nanshan's arrow.

"Dang!" Another sound of a sword breaking was heard. Although the man avoided Chu Nanshan's arrow, the force Chu Nanshan exerted on the arrow was so great that the long sword in the man's hand broke into two pieces.

"It's been a while since we last met. Old King Chu is still sharp as a knife!" The man gradually approached the firelight. It turned out to be the Sea King who had escaped from Jincheng. He was covered in dust, and the few tens of thousands of soldiers left behind him were also exhausted.

Chu Nanshan narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered, "You are not bad at all. You can actually come back alive from Jincheng."

"Chu Nanshan, you came to my door today, so don't blame me for being rude!" As he said that, Hai Quan drew another long sword from the horse's back, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Chu Nanshan.

Chu Nanshan snorted coldly, his sharp eyes taking in the now beleaguered Sea King Army, and sneered, "Just you? Hundreds of thousands of Chu King Army are right before our eyes, and you still want to kill me with these deserters under your command? You're dreaming."

Hai Quan couldn't fail to grasp the situation. Although Chu Nanshan had only brought a few tens of thousands of men to declare war, hundreds of thousands more were waiting in the Chu King's northwest camp. Furthermore, the tens of thousands of Hai King's troops who had escaped death were already exhausted from the long journey. Opening a battle with Chu Nanshan now would be foolish. As for the city before him, he couldn't open the gates at this moment, or else he would fall prey to Chu Nanshan's scheme.

Gradually putting away his sword, the murderous look on Hai Quan's face instantly disappeared. He smiled at Chu Nanshan in a gentle manner and said, "Old Prince is indeed a man of strategy. If we fight here today, neither side will gain any advantage. It is better to call a truce and decide the outcome another day."

However, Chu Nanshan had already seen through the true face behind Hai Quan's smile. He tightened his grip on the sword and the horse he was riding immediately galloped towards Hai Quan, who was not far away...

Hai Quan also instantly put away the smile on his face, slammed the hilt of his sword against the horse's back, and swung the sword towards Chu Nanshan who was coming towards him.

"The prince is back, everyone, protect him immediately!" Yuan Yao stood on the city wall, saw everything clearly, and hurriedly gave orders to the battle.

The two armies instantly clashed, Hai Quan and Chu Nanshan both exerting all their might on horseback, determined to slay the other on this bloody battlefield...

For Chu Nanshan, meeting Hai Quan here was an unexpected surprise. Being able to capture the commander of the Sea King Army was of course a good thing for the Chu King Army.

As for Hai Quan, Jincheng's defeat made him feel very angry. He was racking his brains over how to deal with Chu Feiyang and Jiang Muchen, but he didn't expect Chu Nanshan to come to him at this time. How could Hai Quan let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

The two men's hypocritical greetings just now were just a strategy to capture each other and buy some time.

Amidst the flashing of swords and sabers, both of them were tightly biting each other...

At this moment, the originally locked city gate of Chaocheng was suddenly opened from the inside, and tens of thousands of the Sea King's army rushed out and attacked the Chu King's army.

Chu Nanshan saw that the enemy outnumbered him. If he sent a signal for reinforcements, he feared that by the time they arrived, the Chu army would have been wiped out. Looking at Hai Quan, who was as cunning as a fox, Chu Nanshan turned his gaze to the surrounding Chu army and suddenly shouted in a deep voice, "Retreat!"

Today's goal is to rescue Qu Feiqing and the other two. Now that the mission is completed, it is naturally time for them to retreat.

As for Haiquan's unexpected surprise, it is better to leave it to Feiyang to deal with.

At Chu Nanshan's command, all the Chu army stopped fighting and retreated in an orderly manner, gradually evacuating from the city wall.

The purpose of the Sea King's army not leaving the city to fight was to protect the Sea King. Now that the Chu King's army had withdrawn first, Yuan Yao naturally ordered not to pursue them, so as to avoid being ambushed by the enemy.

"Your Highness, you are finally back!" Seeing Hai Quan, who had escaped death, returning to the imperial city with the remaining tens of thousands of troops, generals such as Yuan Yao immediately surrounded him, their eyes full of excitement.

"Bang!" Unexpectedly, Hai Quan slammed his fist on the table and fled from Jincheng. This was the greatest humiliation of his life. He was forced by two young brats to flee with tens of thousands of troops, and then returned in disgrace. How could Hai Quan swallow this?

In addition, the surprise attack by the Chu King’s army tonight made the Sea King’s army even more panicked.

After Hai Quan returned to the city, Yuan Yao immediately ordered everyone to retreat into the city and close the city gates.

The first thing Hai Quan did upon returning to the city was to lead Yuan Yao and the others up to the city wall. Looking at the devastation left by the fierce battle outside, Hai Quan clenched his fists against the wall and growled, "Chu Feiyang, Jiang Muchen, you're so cruel! You actually buried alive 400,000 of my elite soldiers."

A chaotic sound of running echoed on the stone steps of the tower. A guard, sweating profusely, ran up to the tower and knelt on one knee in front of Hai Quan. He reported in a panic, "Your Highness, this is bad. Xiahou An'er and Han Yujun have been secretly rescued."

"What did you say?" Hai Quan's eyes showed shock, and his murderous gaze instantly shot towards Yuan Yao who was standing beside him.

Yuan Yao was dumbfounded and actually repeated the guard's words, "The hostage... is missing?"

After he finished speaking, Yuan Yao felt himself sweating profusely, his heart pounding like a drum. Not only did Hai Quan not believe this fact, even he himself still couldn't believe what he had heard.

"Damn it..." Hai Quan punched the icy city wall, his heart filled with regret.

Chu Nanshan ran all the way to the military camp. Without even taking off his blood-stained armor, he led his guards hurriedly into the military doctor's tent.

Before he approached the tent, he saw that the outside of the tent was already full of people. Needless to say, Prince Duan Han Jing was the most anxious and worried person. Han Che was seriously injured.

In addition, Qu Lingao, Ye Chi, Meng Tao, Qu Feiqing, Han Yu, Xiahou An'er and others were all waiting outside the tent. Qu Feiqing had already cried so hard that she didn't even care about the wound on her head.

"How is Han Che's condition?" Chu Nanshan's gaze fell on Qu Lingao's face, which was relatively calm, but he asked in a somewhat anxious tone.

Qu Lingao shook his head with a sad expression. He understood the mood of Prince Duan and the others at the moment, so he took Chu Nanshan aside and whispered, "He was shot in the front and back, and his right arm was severely wounded. When the guards brought him back just now, he was barely alive. His bloodied appearance frightened Prince Duan so much that he stumbled and fell. The military doctor just now secretly told me that the arrow in his back and right arm are easier to deal with, but the one in his chest is the most difficult to remove. All the military doctors in the camp are now guarding Han Che in the tent. I'm afraid he's in great danger this time!"

When he said the last sentence, Qu Lingao sighed heavily. Seeing the seriousness between Qu Lingao's brows, Chu Nanshan also frowned.

At this moment, a military doctor covered in blood walked out of the tent.

Prince Duan was the first to recover. He rushed to the military doctor, grabbed his arms tightly, and asked, "Doctor, how is Che'er? Is his life in danger?"

Seeing Prince Duan actually addressing the Left Prime Minister as 'Che'er', the military doctor's heavy gaze flashed with surprise, but he didn't dare to say much. He only answered Prince Duan's questions about Han Che's injury, "The arrow in the Left Prime Minister's chest was very dangerous. Although I and others managed to pull it out, the Prime Minister lost too much blood, and the bumpy journey back had a significant impact on his injury. If he can survive three days and three nights, there may be hope of survival. If not, then..."

Before the military doctor could finish his words, Han Jing suddenly grabbed the doctor's collar with both hands and lifted him up, shouting angrily, "What if he can't make it? As doctors who save lives, how can you not treat the wounded well? If anything happens to Che'er, I..."

"Han Jing!" A stern shout came from Prince Duan's mouth, immediately interrupting Han Jing's irrational roar.

Han Jing turned to Prince Duan with dull eyes, only to see that Prince Duan's face was frosty, but his eyes were filled with anxiety and heartache that could not be concealed or erased. Han Jing felt a pain in his heart and slowly loosened his hands, not making things difficult for the military doctor anymore.

"This place is northwest, and inside a military camp, so finding a renowned doctor might be difficult. I wonder if Prime Minister Han is in such a good condition and can be moved?" Qu Lingao and Chu Nanshan, having heard the argument, quickly approached the tent door. Seeing Prince Duan's suppressed pain, Qu Lingao hurriedly asked for the military doctor's help. They wouldn't give up if there was even a glimmer of hope. Furthermore, Han Che's injury had been solely to save Concubine Qing, and Qu Lingao's anxiety was no less intense than Prince Duan's.

"This is absolutely not allowed! Prime Minister Han lost too much blood because he was tossed around on horseback for too long. Then, when he pulled out the arrow, the bleeding continued and he fell into a coma. My Lords and Lords, please rest assured that we will take good care of Prime Minister Han. If anything happens, we will send someone to inform you immediately." After saying this, the military doctor was still worried about Han Che's injury, so he said no more and turned around to go back into the tent.

"Military doctor, can I take care of Han Xiang?" Unexpectedly, Qu Feiqing, who had been sobbing with her head down, called out to the military doctor at this moment, and turned to look at her military doctor with a sincere pleading face.

"Feiqing, what are you doing? Why don't you hurry back to the tent?" Qu Lingao immediately scolded. It wasn't that he didn't want to help, but Feiqing was a delicate lady with no medical knowledge. How could she take good care of Han Che? What if...

The more he thought about it, the more Qu Lingao dared not imagine it, but the expression on his face became colder and colder. His eyes were full of sharp reproach as he stared straight at Qu Feiqing, who had a firm expression.

"My Lord, why don't you ask Miss Qu to work hard for a few days? Perhaps with Miss Qu taking care of Che'er, Che'er will slowly wake up." At this time, Prince Duan, who was always calm and taciturn, actually spoke up to plead for Concubine Qu.

How could Prince Duan not know Han Che's thoughts? If Han Che really believed that this was his fate, then he would be happy to have his beloved woman accompany him in his last few days.

Thinking of this, a hint of tears flashed in Prince Duan's worried eyes, which made Qu Lingao's heart tremble. He turned around and saw Qu Feiqing's determined expression. In the end, he could only nod silently.

After receiving everyone's approval, Qu Feiqing immediately followed the military doctor into the tent...

"Old Prince, the King of Chu is back!" Just when everyone was in a low mood, the guard came running over and reported the news to everyone present before he even stood firm.

"Hurry, go back to the tent!" Everyone suppressed their worries about Han Che and walked quickly towards the commander's tent.

"You little brat, you're finally back! Let me ask you, why did you send Meng'er to Northern Qi? It's freezing cold in Northern Qi, what if Meng'er..." Chu Feiyang had just returned to the tent with Xi Lin, and before he sat down to drink some tea and take a breath, he heard Chu Nanshan's loud voice coming from far away.

"Han Che was injured?" Chu Feiyang ignored Chu Nanshan's reproach and cast his gaze on Prince Duan, who had stepped into the tent one step behind Chu Nanshan. His words were full of concern.

Prince Duan's face looked grim and he was heartbroken. He slowly sat down with the help of the guards and then nodded to Chu Feiyang. However, he was unwilling to talk more about Han Che's injury, as if he was afraid of touching the pain in his heart.

Seeing everyone sitting down one by one, Chu Nanshan asked, "Why did you come back just now?"

After receiving Prince Duan's nod, Chu Feiyang frowned slightly, but he knew that the war between the three princes was more serious than Han Che's injury. Seeing Chu Nanshan asking about his whereabouts, Chu Feiyang said, "After leaving Jincheng, I rushed to several camps of the Chu prince's army and gave them some instructions so that they could quickly join forces with the Chen prince's army."

"Do you have to do this?" Chu Nanshan's expression was also not good, especially after hearing the words 'join forces with Chen Wang's army', Chu Nanshan's eyes shot towards Chu Feiyang were full of accusations.

Chu Feiyang didn't care much and continued, "This is the fastest way to end the war. Besides, the Sea King Army is now severely damaged, and it will be extremely difficult to make a comeback. Jiang Muchen and I must get rid of Hai Quan as soon as possible before we can fight for the territory of Western Chu."

Hearing this, everyone in the tent fell into deep thought. Even Chu Nanshan, who had been blaming Chu Feiyang, lowered his head and remained silent.

"There are hundreds of thousands of Sea King's troops stationed in Chaocheng. If we take over unilaterally, our forces will definitely be damaged. Since Jiang Muchen is also willing to join forces with us this time, I naturally agree. Now the Chu King's army and the Chen King's army in various places have made all preparations, and in the next few days they will take action to eliminate all forces outside Haiquan's Chaocheng." Finally, Chu Feiyang stated the real purpose of going to the major military camps this time.

"What about Chaocheng? How do you plan to capture Chaocheng?" At this time, Chu Nanshan asked the most critical question.

"Wait for the arrival of King Chen's army! Before that, we will trap Chaocheng and let Haiquan also taste the feeling of being trapped!" When saying this, a sinister light flashed in Chu Feiyang's eyes.

All in all, Chu Feiyang made this decision simply to avenge Yun Qianmeng and let Hai Quan experience the feeling of being alone and helpless.

However, this time, Hai Quan was truly alone. Hai Yue had been killed, his most capable and skilled warrior, Hai Chenxi, had been captured, and the Sea King's army throughout Western Chu was already overwhelmed with its own forces. How could they possibly have spare troops to support him?

Towards the city.

"Your Highness, Prince Chen and Prince Chu have been besieging us for half a month, but they have never launched an attack. What are their intentions? If that doesn't work, should we retreat to Yangming Mountain? After all, Yangming Mountain is surrounded by mountains on three sides, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. We don't have to worry about supplies in the mountains. If the hundreds of thousands of troops in the city are trapped for a while longer, I'm afraid the soldiers will have to eat tree bark." Yuan Yao was anxious. Since the battle of Jincheng, they had lost more than 400,000 elite soldiers in vain. Not to mention that the King of the Sea was heartbroken, even he, Yuan Yao, felt heartbroken.

Who would have expected that the Sea King Army would lose the battlefield when the situation was so favorable?

Who would have thought that Jiang Muchen and Chu Feiyang, two people who were supposed to be enemies forever, would actually join forces at the gate of Jincheng?
