"Report!!! Sir Governor! Our north gate has been breached, and the west gate has also been breached!!!"
Cui Xia took a deep breath, his body swaying, his young face full of unwillingness.
What else doesn't he understand at this point? He lost... he lost.
There were clearly only a few soldiers left in the enemy camp.
But in the south, the people the county magistrate took out had not sent back any news, which clearly meant that there was no hope.
Cui Xia paused for a moment, then silently looked at the soldiers around him and said, "Go, pack your things and prepare to leave through the South Gate."
Right now, only the South Gate was free of enemy soldiers, so he could only flee southward to other cities in Chishima State.
The soldier was a little surprised: "Sir... Governor, we have only broken through one city gate, and we can still hold on."
Cui Xia smiled, his expression gloomy, like a defeated rooster: "With Ji Wan's elite troops and generals, Zhengyang City will be conquered in less than three hours.
Which is better, leaving now or fleeing hastily after the city gates are breached?
He has lived for so many years, and he has always been the one to scheme against others. He never expected that after hunting geese all day long, he would end up getting his eyes pecked by a goose.
Being surrounded and eaten away by others, like a blunt knife cutting your flesh, that feeling of despair and suffocation creeping in bit by bit.
Ji Wan saw through all his schemes.
It also cut off his hopes one by one.
Whenever he thought he still had a backup plan to plot against Ji Wan, Ji Wan had already arrived at his destination and was waiting for him.
What was this? The humiliation of having everything figured out and the victory guaranteed?
Ji Wan...
Cui Xia flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked down the city wall.
If he escapes now, he can find an opportunity to seek help from the entire Cui family.
But if he doesn't leave now, and the city is broken, the entire Cui family will burn incense for him!

Ji Wan also received information about the situation on the battlefield. Only then did her body relax and lean against the soft pillow behind her.
This thing was made by Yang Guan according to Ji Wan's request. Ji Wan disliked the cold and hard wooden chair, so she asked Yang Guan to make pillows and cushions.
Well, it sells very well in Ningxi Kingdom and Pincheng, and is also being exported to Nanxia and Beirong.
"Tell the soldiers to keep a close eye on Cui Xia and make sure he doesn't get away. Oh, and there's no need to go through the South City Gate."
Liang Yan was a little curious: "Your Highness, the only area without our soldiers is the South Gate. Why don't you have someone focus on that area?"
Ji Wan smiled brightly in an instant, and looked at Liang Yan with sparkling eyes: "Xuan Niao will know in a moment!"
Sui Ruoxu was also aroused by curiosity and glanced at Cui Min.
I found that he was pretending to be dead with his eyes looking at his nose and his nose looking at his heart, which made me even more curious.
——
On the other side, Cui Xia had just left the south city gate.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief.
"Bang!" A burst of fire and a gust of wind rushed towards him instantly, heading straight for the carriage he was riding in, and split the courtesan beside him in two in the blink of an eye.
"Ah!" Cui Xia screamed with limp hands and feet.
Realizing something was wrong, he looked down.
He found his pants were wet. It was the dynamite that scared him so much that he peed his pants...
No, that's not right! His legs and crotch hurt so much!
In the end, Cui Xia only had time to think of this sentence before he fainted.
Hearing the explosion coming from not far away, Yang Guan's eyes flashed.
His expression was somewhat doting.
Now His Highness can also play tricks on people.
Just now, after His Highness discovered the enemy troops coming from the south of the camp, he ordered him to hide his body and set up an explosive that could be triggered by a switch at the south gate.
It seems that the bomb has now been triggered by Cui Xia.
Thinking of this, Yang Guan waved to the soldiers and said, "Go check the south gate to see if there are any survivors."
"yes!"
The warhorses led by Ding Wu had already broken through the gates of Zhengyang City. The soldiers obeyed the order and roared loudly: "Surrender and you will not be killed!"
"Surrender and you won't be killed!"
"Surrender and you won't be killed!"
"Surrender and you won't be killed!"
In this battle, Ji Wan worked together with the group of advisers and generals behind him to coordinate all of Cui Xia's upcoming or already started actions.
All of them were blocked in front of him.
In short, Cui Xia wanted to predict Ji Wan's prediction.
Unexpectedly, Ji Wan predicted Cui Xia's prediction.
Well, that sounds a bit awkward.
But the final result was that all of Cui Xia's plans were thought of in advance by Ji Wan and his staff, and then all of them were cracked and exposed.
Ji Wan clenched his fist, completely in control!
"Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Your Highness!" Cui Min, Liang Yan, and Sui Ruoxu stood up and said in unison.
"Gentlemen, congratulations.
"Thank you all for your help." Ji Wan bent down and saluted the gentlemen with the same solemnity.
There was a joyful atmosphere in the tent.
Sui Ruoxu looked at Ji Wan's appearance, and his eyes became moist.
It's really rare to find a lord like this!
After Ji Wan's spiritual power increased, his horse-mounting posture became much more attractive, but several counselors still looked away.
For no other reason, although His Highness's posture when mounting the horse looks much better, it is still not easy.
When Sui Ruoxu saw the prince struggling to get on and off the horse, he finally felt that Ji Wan was actually a disabled person.
Otherwise, every time I see His Highness's style of doing things and his aura, I would easily mistake him for a healthy person.
Riding his horse, Ji Wan ran to the captured soldiers guarding the city first.
They were the last soldiers left by Cui Xia to defend the city, with the purpose of using their lives to hold back the enemy.
Looking at them, they were all like quails, staying where they were obediently.
Ji Wan nodded with satisfaction. It was just right. If they were all sent to mine, Jiang Jian would probably thank her.
In the distance, Ding Wu held a struggling scholar in armor in his big palm like a chicken.
As for why Ji Wan saw it...
"Traitor! A slave who eats dog shit and brings disaster!"
"God will punish you!"
As soon as the words came out, Ji Wan's expression didn't change. Don't ask why. Apart from the words "dog", "shit", and "trouble", she really didn't understand what the whole sentence meant.
But it doesn't sound good either.
Ji Wan looked around furtively and found that Ding Wu and the soldiers behind him didn't seem to understand either.
He just looked angry, but no one knew what he was angry about.
My heart calmed down a little.
Fortunately, she wasn't the only one who didn't understand.
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes and said bluntly, "My master is the King of Zhenbei, who was personally appointed by His Majesty.
Who are you to insult my Lord?"
Ding Wu also added fuel to the fire: "Your Highness, this birdman has a dirty mouth. His tongue must be cut off!"
Ji Wan looked at Sui Ruoxu with a guilty conscience, asking, "Is there any possibility that this person will surrender?"
Sui Ruoxu covered his face with his sleeves and shook his head slowly: "No, this person is most famous for his stubbornness, and his talent is not second to others."
