The Wuhuan royal court.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the royal court was one of chaos and confusion!
“Report!!!”
A messenger covered in blood stumbled into the royal palace.
"Great Khan! It's bad! East... East City... has been captured by the Great Xia Army!"
What? !
The Wuhuan Khan suddenly stood up from his throne, his face full of disbelief.
"What did you say?! How could East City be captured?! Where is our army?!"
“Report!!!”
Another messenger rushed in, crawling and tumbling.
"Great Khan! West... West City has also fallen! It's the Daxia army! They... They are heading towards the royal court!!"
boom!
The entire royal palace exploded in an instant, and all the Wuhuan nobles and generals were stunned!
Daxia's army? !
Where did they come from?
Didn't the armies from East City and West City go to rescue Wutan City?!
Aren’t Daxia’s million-strong cavalry attacking Wutan City?
Could it be...
A terrible thought came to the mind of the Wuhuan Khan!
Fell into a trap!
They fell into a trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain!
"Quick! Pass the order!"
The King of Wuhuan was so frightened that his voice changed.
"Order the cavalry that went to rescue Wutan City to return immediately! Defend the royal court!"
At this moment, the defense of the royal court was unprecedentedly weak.
The elite main force, still hundreds of miles away, rushed towards a false "million-strong army".
And the 20,000 murderous elite soldiers of Daxia are already within reach!
Once the royal court is lost...
The Wuhuan Khan didn't dare to think any further and felt dizzy.
The Wuhuan Royal Court was the political and military center of the entire Wuhuan Kingdom!
It is also the faith and spiritual pillar of the entire Wuhuan people.
Its importance is self-evident!
If the royal court is occupied by the enemy, then his Wuhuan Kingdom will probably be in name only!
However, is it too late to order the cavalry that went to rescue Wutan City to return immediately?
The other side.
A huge group of Wuhuan cavalry was rolling towards Wutan City.
Horse hooves were flying and smoke and dust were everywhere.
There was a heavy stone weighing on the heart of every Wuhuan soldier.
Millions of Great Xia cavalry besieged the city!
This news was like a death warrant, forcing them to not slack off in the slightest.
Wutan City must not be lost. Once it is lost, the Wuhuan Kingdom will have no defenses, and the millions of Daxia cavalry will march straight in and attack the royal court.
“Hurry! Hurry!”
The Wuhuan commander, Baturu, had a serious expression on his face and kept urging the troops to speed up.
Just then.
“Report!!!”
A scout who was in charge of covering the rear rushed to Baturu at full speed, his voice filled with fear.
"General, something bad has happened. The king... an urgent report from the royal court!"
Baturu's eyelids twitched suddenly, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
"What are you panicking about? Speak!"
He shouted sharply.
The scout dismounted and tremblingly handed over a secret letter stained with blood.
"The Great...Great Xia Army is attacking the Royal Court! The Royal Court is in imminent danger! The Khan orders us to return immediately to rescue!"
"What?!"
Baturu was struck by lightning. He snatched the secret letter and quickly unfolded it.
Every word in the letter was like a red-hot iron burning on his heart!
The royal court was attacked?
How is this possible?
He suddenly looked up and looked towards the smoke-filled city of Wutan in the distance.
"Aren't Daxia's million-strong cavalry besieging Wutan City?"
He yelled, his voice full of disbelief.
"How could they possibly divide their forces to attack the royal court? Where would they get the troops?"
The generals around were all stunned, looking at each other with horror and confusion in their eyes.
"Yes, General! That's a million-strong army!"
"Could it be possible that they could conjure up an army?"
"What on earth is going on?"
Confusion and doubt instantly spread among the command level.
A deputy general hurried forward and pointed at the vague outline of Wutan City in front of him.
"General! We are less than fifty miles away from Wutan City!"
Baturu's heart sank suddenly.
Fifty miles away, it is too late to turn back and rescue the royal court.
By the time they rush back, the royal court will probably have already fallen.
More importantly, the importance of Wutan City is no less than that of the Royal Court.
If Wutan City falls, the Great Xia Army will be able to march straight into the royal court, and the entire grassland will be indefensible.
Baturu hesitated.
This is a dilemma.
There is no time to return to the royal court to provide assistance, and Wutan City will be lost.
If we don't come back to help the royal court, the royal court will be in imminent danger and may even be destroyed.
Cold sweat slid down Baturu's forehead.
He felt as if he was tightly covered by an invisible net. No matter how he struggled, he could not escape the other party's calculations.
"I've fallen into a trap..."
He almost squeezed out these three words from between his teeth.
"We've fallen into a trap!"
The generals around him were shocked!
"General, you mean..."
Baturu's eyes became extremely cold and filled with anger.
"This is a trap! A naked conspiracy!"
"Daxia took advantage of the fact that the main forces of our army were gathered at the border of Daxia and quietly gathered their main forces to sneak into our Wuhuan territory."
"First, launch a feint attack on Wutan City to attract our Royal Court Guards to come to the rescue."
"Then, their elite troops quietly sneaked into our heartland, the Royal Court."
Baturu finally reacted and his face turned grim.
