When the second prince heard this, he shivered and almost forgot the pain in his body.
He stared at Jiang Pengji and said fiercely, "The winner takes it all … What's there to talk about?"
"Hehe … The winner takes it all? That's nice to hear … "
Jiang Pengji lifted her foot and kicked his face to the side. It didn't take long for it to swell.
The advisor's eyes widened. He looked at Jiang Pengji and then at the second prince.
After all, the second prince was the prince of the Northern Borderline. His identity had important political and strategic significance.
Even if Jiang Pengji captured him, she should treat him well, not to mention humiliating him.
Jiang Pengji could use this person to exchange for a lot of strategic resources from the Northern Borderline.
It wasn't that she didn't understand this principle, but she still did it.
Was this considered humiliation?
If she didn't care about his worthless life, that kick would have sent his head flying. How could it just be a swollen face?
"Liu Xi … There's a saying in the Central Plains that goes like this: You can kill me or cut me up, but you can't humiliate me!"
The second prince was tough for once. As the prince of the Northern Borderline, he was the most promising candidate for the throne. When had he ever been humiliated like this?
"Of course not … I'm going to step on you and humiliate you. What can you do to me?"
Jiang Pengji lifted her foot and stepped on his face so that he couldn't get up. She used a little strength and forced half of his face into the ground.
The second prince was furious. The advisor was quiet. The audience in the streaming room didn't even dare to breathe.
Through the screen, they could feel the anger in Jiang Pengji. It was like an active volcano that had been suppressed for a long time.
Maybe in the next moment, the eruption of magma could bring about a scene of doomsday.
The streamer had always been good-tempered. Why was she suddenly so violent?
The audience was puzzled, but they believed that Jiang Pengji must have a reason for doing so.
In fact, it was true.
As mentioned earlier, Jiang Pengji had excellent night vision. With the help of the camera in the streaming room, the surrounding scene was as bright as day.
In this way, she could clearly see the string of heads strung on the second prince's saddle. Sacrifices were inevitable in war. Jiang Pengji arranged for those people to guard the Chao Wu granary. She knew that the risk factor they faced was extremely high. It was very likely that they would all be wiped out.
She had seen through life and death in her previous life.
As long as it was a war, there would always be sacrifices.
Even if it wasn't this person, it would be someone else, or even herself.
The death of the soldiers could not trigger her anger, but she could not tolerate the act of humiliating the remains of the soldiers.
"I said — I'll break your legs. I meant what I said!"
Half of the second prince's face hurt, and the pain affected his hearing, so he did not hear what the man had said.
The advisor's scalp went numb as he listened. He watched helplessly as Jiang Pengji took two steps back and raised her foot to step on his knee.
He exerted force with his right foot and crushed the ground with the tip of his toe.
Jiang Pengji did not use much strength, but the second prince's knee made a bone-cracking sound.
The Second Prince was in so much pain that his entire body was convulsing, and he screamed incessantly. His shrill screams made everyone present tense up, and they felt a chill run down their spines.
After letting out a shrill scream, the Second Prince fainted with a pale face.
Everyone who witnessed this shuddered in fear.
However, there were also some thick-skinned audience members who ridiculed him.
Kumo Lemon Juice: "How is this breaking his legs? This is clearly breaking his kneecaps while he's still alive."
Jiang Pengji released her foot and said to the person beside her, "Take him away. Send someone to take good care of his wounds. Don't let him die."
The advisor heaved a long sigh of relief when he heard this.
It seemed that Liu Xi was ruthless, but she was still rational.
Little did he know that Jiang Pengji did not kill him on the spot because she wanted him to die more miserably.
"My lord …"
Li Yun led a group of soldiers and horses to catch up. He was slightly injured, but his face was still rosy and he was in high spirits.
"The person has been caught. Clean up the battlefield," Jiang Pengji said coldly. "Rest and reorganize. The army will set off tomorrow morning."
Li Yun said, "This general obeys."
"… I hope Zhengtu's side does not disappoint …"
She was a little irritable. If Fu Wang failed to take down the three cities, or if the losses from taking down the three cities exceeded expectations, she would be furious.
Li Yun said calmly, "My lord, please rest assured. General Fu will definitely bring you good news."
No matter what, Fu Wang was once the number one general under the Meng's. Taking down cities was not a problem.
"Oh, I hope so."
If Fu Wang could not take down the three empty cities where most of his troops had been transferred, he would not live up to his reputation.
The advisor had not been taken away yet. He faintly heard the conversation between Jiang Pengji and Li Yun. His heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly remembered that the second prince had rushed over to steal the grain and transferred away most of the garrison.
Without sufficient garrison, how could the three cities of Shangyu resist Liu Xi's well-prepared army?
Liu Xi had taken down the three cities as easily as taking something out of his pocket!
Thinking of this, the advisor regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
From the moment the second prince obtained the distribution map of the granaries to the current defeat, it was clearly a meticulous scheme by the other party.
On the other hand, Fu Wang's performance did not disappoint his illustrious reputation. His fighting spirit was high.
Within two days, he had taken down the three cities consecutively. He was invincible.
Without spending much effort, he had taken back the three cities that the people of Dongqing had yearned for for a long time. A flag with the word "Liu" was raised on the city walls.
When Jiang Pengji arrived, Fu Wang was sending people to clean up the battlefield and retrieve the corpses of the sacrificed soldiers.
"Greetings, my lord. Fortunately, I did not fail you."
Strictly speaking, this was Fu Wang's first battle after joining Jiang Pengji's camp.
If Fu Wang's performance was not outstanding enough, it would more or less affect his prestige in the army.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Jiang Pengji stood on the city walls and looked into the distance. Her lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile.
The three cities of Shangyu were located at the border between the Northern borderline and Dongqing. Their city walls were tall, wide, thick, and hard. It was like a natural moat guarding the area.
The three cities were built along the mountain range and relied on the natural barrier. Past this mountain range was the territory of the Northern borderline.
The Northern borderline occupied the three cities. Without the mountain range as a hindrance, they could use the three cities as a base to attack Dongqing.
It was precisely because of this that Dongqing had been so afraid of the Northern borderline all these years.
Now that the three cities were in Jiang Pengji's hands, the situation was completely reversed.
Sun Wen had once fooled the fourth prince by saying that the construction of the three cities would slow down Jiang Pengji's progress in the north.
There was nothing wrong with this sentence. The mistake was that Jiang Pengji had no intention of rebuilding the three cities.
She was already preparing to attack the Northern borderline. The three cities of Shangyu were the center of the war. Was there any point in developing this place?
From the beginning, Jiang Pengji had planned to build the three cities of Shangyu into strategic military locations. She would use them as a springboard to attack the Northern borderline.
The basic construction of the three cities of Shangyu was still there. With a little modification, they could be put into use to defend against strong enemies.
Jiang Pengji said to Fu Wang, "Increase the number of troops to guard the three cities. The border guards of the Northern borderline should have reacted by now."
However, even if they reacted, it would be too late.
