The eighth prince has not been idle this month. He has reoccupied the three states originally occupied by the fairy island.
It seemed that he had no scruples and replaced all the officials in the Thirteen States of Dagan.
In the eyes of the Eighth Prince, he is now only one step away from the throne.
Of course, there was only one small problem standing in his way.
That is a million imperial guards and two military soul units.
So he took this month to gain control of the thirteen states.
Find a way to cut off the logistics of these armies and make them lose without fighting.
In the past, because of the enemy, the Fairy Island, he couldn't split his forces.
But now, we can show our talents.
The Eighth Prince’s residence was crowded with people.
Among them were naturally officials who presented gifts, as well as those who wanted to curry favor with the Eighth Prince.
Even a gatekeeper boy of the Eighth Prince might have as much power as that of a third-rank official.
After all, in the eyes of these people, the general trend of the world has been determined.
It can be said that all of this fell into the hands of the eighth prince, and the next step was just to attack the palace.
Taking refuge now can be considered as a kind of merit in following the dragon.
The risk of investment is much higher than that.
At this moment, the Eighth Prince was meeting a man in the study. The man was dressed in cloth and wrapped in a black robe.
But from his actions and sharp eyes, it can be seen that he came from the army.
"I wonder who you are and what you want to do?" The eighth prince said to the man in front of him, playing with a piece of jade in his hand.
With the Eighth Prince's current power, not many people can see him.
But the person in front of him was able to meet the current Eighth Prince just by using a name.
"I greet His Highness the Eighth Prince. I am Cheng Lian, the deputy commander of General Lu of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, and I have come to deliver General Lu's military orders."
At this moment, Cheng Lian took off the hood wrapped around his body, revealing his wolf-like eyes.
"Bingzhou Wolf Rider." The Eighth Prince murmured. He naturally knew that the man was a Bingzhou Wolf Rider, which was why he asked his servant to bring him to see him.
But his words made the Eighth Prince somewhat confused.
So what does Lu Bu want to do?
"May I ask what General Lu wants to say? If you have any requests, I will definitely fulfill them.
After all, if it weren't for General Lu, our Dagan might still be invaded by the Xiongnu."
The Eighth Prince’s biggest enemy now is the two military soul troops.
Therefore, I am extremely concerned about this news.
"My general said that Emperor Dagan no longer has any control over the court.
The world should have belonged to Your Highness, if Your Highness is willing to give the title of Duke of the State to the general.
Then the general is willing to help His Highness resist the National Defense Army."
"What? Are you serious?" After hearing Cheng Lian's words, the Eighth Prince suddenly stood up from the stool.
He looked shocked and couldn't believe his ears. He didn't expect to hear such good news.
If this is true, then the throne is probably just around the corner.
It was really easy to get it. I didn't expect that Lu Bu would actually join me.
However, the eighth prince now thought of Lu Bu's reputation, which has never been very good.
Originally, he was the second prince's man, and then he defected to the eldest prince. Finally, the eldest prince's rebellion failed, and he defected to the current Emperor Dagan.
He is a capricious villain and hard to trust.
But if I could take advantage of this and enter the palace without bloodshed, that would of course be the best.
However, the Eighth Prince still asked: "If that's the case, then how can you prove that your General Lu is truly surrendering?
Rather than a bait to lure us in?"
The Eighth Prince's words now did not hide his intention to rebel at all.
It can be said that the Eighth Prince's intentions are known to everyone.
But now the Eighth Prince also has this capital, so there is no need to hide it all.
After hearing this, Cheng Lian said:
"Our general said he could find a way to get Zhang Liao to lead the National Defense Army and the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry out of the capital. Your Highness can take them."
When the Eighth Prince heard the news, he thought for a moment.
Then Lu Bu and Zhang Liao who left the city did not pose any threat to them at all.
If Lu Bu can really do it, then it would be a good choice.
The supreme position is ours to take for ourselves.
So the Eighth Prince nodded, smiled kindly, patted Cheng Lian on the shoulder and said:
"Then I'll trouble you, General. If this is accomplished, then the position of Duke of Zhenguo will naturally be passed down to General Lu."
After that, the two discussed some details before Cheng Lian left.
The Eighth Prince looked at Cheng Lian's receding figure and quickly asked the old man Baihun in the shadow:
"Master, do you think Lu Bu is truly committed to us?"
The old man Baihun transformed into a body, and then he said with half-closed eyes:
"At this point, it doesn't matter anymore, we're almost cutting off their supply lines.
Now the supply from Shuzhong to them has almost been cut off.
In other words, these troops are now eating stored food and have been locked up in the palace for a long time.
If he can't stand seeing his family, there must have been some internal rifts for a long time.
You have to know that most of the imperial guards now have other ideas. These military soul troops are essentially human beings.
They will naturally plan their own retreat, and it is already very good that they have been able to hold on to this point."
The old man Baihun seemed very happy about this matter and explained everything to the eighth prince in detail.
But the eighth prince felt a sense of incongruity, as these words should clearly be spoken by him.
Moreover, these things were arranged by myself, but they were revealed by Old Man Baihun.
But the Eighth Prince didn't think much about it at this moment, or rather, at this point, he no longer had the power and ability to think much about it.
His greed and madness made him blind to the greed and madness in the eyes of Old Man Baihun.
