Jun Zechen arranged a night attack.
In the darkest hour before dawn, the main force began to move according to plan.
The soldiers approached the city gate quietly like ghosts. Their footsteps were deliberately suppressed and only their heavy breathing could be heard.
As the first rays of dawn broke through the sky, the main force suddenly launched a fierce attack.
For a moment, shouts of killing shook the sky and war drums roared.
The enemy was caught off guard by this sudden attack and had to hastily devote all its strength to dealing with the fierce frontal assault.
Just when the enemy's attention was attracted by the frontal attack, the special forces led by Wei Zheng had already circled behind the enemy like ghosts.
They moved quickly and agilely, like cheetahs in the dark.
The sudden appearance of the Junguo army caused the enemy to panic, and the originally strict defense line collapsed in an instant.
The soldiers shouted in fear and fled in all directions in chaos.
Borhu, the eldest prince of the Canglang Kingdom, looked at the breached city gate with a face so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out.
He gnashed his teeth and roared: "Jun Guo is really insidious and cunning!"
However, the army of the monarchy had already surged into the city like a tide, with great momentum.
Under the powerful attack of the Jun Kingdom's army, the Canglang Kingdom's army could only retreat step by step and was in a miserable state.
Borhu gritted his teeth and ordered his soldiers to retreat.
After half a year, Jun Zechen led the army of the Jun Kingdom and recaptured the nine cities of Qingzhou. Now they have arrived at the city of Yuzhou.
At this time, the royal family of the Canglang Kingdom was like an ant on a hot pan, running around in a panic.
The ruler of the Canglang Kingdom was a big and strong man, but at this moment his sturdy body looked a little hunched.
The beard on his face was messy and the braids of his hair had lost their former neatness.
The calmness and composure that a king should have were no longer on his face, and were replaced by endless anxiety and fear.
"Borhu, the army of the Jun Kingdom has now arrived at the foot of Yuzhou. If we can't stop them, we, the Canglang royal family, will be prisoners of the Jun Kingdom!"
The king pointed at Borchu with a trembling finger, his voice becoming hoarse with anger and fear.
"If you were not so ambitious and wanted to invade Junguo, and even sent your sister Saihan to Junguo as a spy, how could Junguo attack us so forcefully?"
As the king spoke, he paced back and forth in the hall, his hands on his waist and veins bulging on his forehead.
Borchu's face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm. He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
After more than a dozen battles with the emperor, Borchu finally understood what outflanking means, what it means to lure the enemy deep into your territory, and even various strategies of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, and dividing and conquering.
Canglang values military power and does not pay attention to learning Junguo's culture, but Borhu went to Junguo several times and every time he would read Junguo's "Thirty-Six Strategies".
But the book was obscure and difficult to understand, and Borchu only understood the general idea.
However, he once used the strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain from one of the Thirty-Six Strategies to defeat the nomadic people to the east of the Canglang Kingdom.
He even used other strategies to win many battles.
He is the most strategic warrior of Canglang.
But this time he faced off against Jun State, and was caught off guard by the strategies of Jun State's army every time.
Every time after a battle, I would think back and feel how clever the king's deployment of troops was.
However, Borhu refused to admit defeat.
There was still a stubborn fire burning in his eyes.
One of the generals who participated in the battle with Junguo now had a look of fear and exhaustion on his face.
The voice was filled with tears as he said, "Lord, the emperor of our country has personally led the army to fight. He has been the one giving advice from behind the scenes. The morale of our country's soldiers is also high. If we continue to fight like this, our country will surely lose."
Then he paused, raised his eyes and looked carefully at the eldest prince, then quickly looked at the king.
Then he said: "I suggest that Canglang surrender and make peace with your country."
After saying this, he lowered his head, not daring to look at other people's faces.
Before the king could speak, the eldest prince jumped out impatiently like a lit firecracker.
"Father, if we surrender now, the monarchy will not accept it. They may even take advantage of our country's low morale to launch an even more fierce attack. Father, you must think twice!"
The king frowned and paced back and forth in the hall, his face full of confusion and helplessness in the dilemma.
"My Lord, since you don't want to surrender, maybe you can think of a way to deal with Junguo?"
The king stopped and stared at Borchu with a sharp gaze, his eyes full of questioning and anxiety.
Bol suddenly lowered his eyes in thought, pursed his lips tightly, and his face was solemn.
After a moment, he raised his head and said, "Father, let's use the empty city strategy in Yuzhou. Yiyuan City in Yuzhou is the first city that Junguo will attack. We will leave an empty city for Junguo's army, lure Junguo into a trap, and finally catch the turtle in the jar."
After saying this, there was a flash of determination in his eyes, as if he pinned all his hopes on this strategy.
This is what Borchu learned from his several battles with the Junguo army.
The king was confused and bewildered.
But he still said sternly: "This is your last chance. If you cannot strike the king, Canglang will surrender."
Even if you become a vassal state of a monarch, you cannot become the monarch of a fallen country.
If you become the king of a fallen country, you will either die or be imprisoned.
He is the high and mighty ruler of the Canglang Kingdom, how could he accept such an insult?
