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 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 hurriedly tried to deal 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 move 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 terror 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 truly insidious and cunning!"
However, the army of the king has already poured into the city like a surging tide, with great momentum.
Under the powerful offensive of the Jun Kingdom's army, the Canglang Kingdom's army could only retreat step by step and was in a miserable state.
Borchu 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 king of Canglang State is a big and strong man, but his sturdy body looks a little hunched at this moment.
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, replaced by endless anxiety and fear.
"Borhu, the Jun Kingdom's army has now reached 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 hoarse with anger and fear.
"If you weren't so ambitious and wanted to invade Jun State, and even sent your sister Saihan to Jun State as a spy, how could Jun State 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 was a roundabout encirclement, what was luring the enemy deep into his territory, and even various strategies of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, and dividing and combining the attacks.
Canglang values military power and does not pay attention to learning the culture of Junguo. However, Borhu went to Junguo several times and read Junguo's "Thirty-Six Strategies" every time.
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 in 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 Junguo head-on, and Junguo's army's strategies caught him off guard every time.
Every time after a battle, I would think about it carefully and feel how clever the king's deployment of troops was.
However, Borhu would never admit defeat.
There was still a stubborn fire burning in his eyes.
One of the generals who participated in the battle with the Hejun Kingdom now had a look of fear and exhaustion on his face.
The voice was filled with tears as he spoke, "Lord, the Emperor of our country has been leading the army in person. He has been providing advice from behind the scenes, and the morale of our country's soldiers is 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 expressions.
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 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.
"Grand Prince, 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 eagerness.
Borhu 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 the Jun Kingdom will attack. We will leave an empty city for the Jun Kingdom's army, luring you into a trap and finally catching you in the trap."
After saying this, a hint of determination flashed 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 completely confused and had a look of bewilderment on his face.
But he still said sternly: "This is your last chance. If you cannot strike the king, the wolf will surrender."
Even if you become a vassal state of a monarch, you cannot become the monarch of a fallen nation.
If you become the king of a fallen country, you will either die or be imprisoned.
He is the high and mighty ruler of Canglang, how could he accept such an insult?
