The Crown Prince led five thousand cavalrymen south at a fast pace.
It was the standard for a rapid march, covering two hundred li in a day.
This was the most elite cavalry, even reaching the level of one man and two horses.
It didn't look impressive, but in reality, this was already very fast with cold weapons.
Moreover, this cavalry didn't need to carry any rations. There were people resupplying them along the way.
When they were a hundred li away, not to mention rations, even hot water and delicious food were prepared at the next relay station. Crown Prince Ning Yi only needed to stop to enjoy the best treatment.
But that wasn't all.
Along the way, there were many elite cavalrymen coming to join them.
They were all young nobles of the State of Yue. They brought their family's most elite warriors, and some even traveled thousands of li to join them.
Of course, this was the icing on the cake.
But it was also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Now that the Crown Prince had the support of the people, this wave was to gain merit.
If they showed their face in front of the Crown Prince, this investment would be worth ten times the return.
Everyone knew that the State of Yue had more than two hundred thousand soldiers on the battlefield in Nan 'Ou.
Prince Jin's Sand Barbarian army was less than forty thousand, and they were facing a shortage of food and a plague.
This was a battle that they had to win.
So before Crown Prince Ning Yi reached Tian Nan City, his cavalry had already increased to eight thousand.
More than half of the nobles of the State of Yue had sent people.
Not only that.
Every time the Crown Prince's army passed through a city, countless scholars and commoners would come to welcome them.
Of course, the scholars were spontaneous.
Because the Crown Prince's interests were the State of Yue's scholars' interests. His base was the civil officials.
For the Crown Prince's position, the civil officials dared to oppose the Monarch.
As for how these commoners came to be, no one knew. But in short, the Crown Prince was supported by the people.
And from the day the Crown Prince left the capital.
The entire civil official system began to build up public opinion.
Day by day, it escalated.
It almost made the Nan 'Ou War the greatest war in a hundred years.
It was even more important than the Wuyue War twenty years ago.
As long as they won this battle and eliminated Lord Jin, they would be able to exchange for decades of peace and stability in Yue Country.
That was true.
But it was too much, almost to the point of a Holy War.
However, scholars were like this. They would not rest until their words shocked people to death.
By the time the Crown Prince entered Tiannan Province, the public opinion had already reached its peak.
It was like a raging fire, fresh flowers were embroidered, and oil was added to the raging fire.
Countless people were also inspired by the scholars, and they joined in the fun, as if they were drunk.
Soon, the Zhu Clan felt that they had overexerted themselves and wanted to cool down a little.
But it was too late.
At this time, even without the guidance of the Zhu family, even without the guidance of the civil officials, the scholars of the State of Yue had already fallen into self-satisfaction.
The scholars supported the Crown Prince, some of the warriors supported the Third Prince, and the idiots supported Ning Zheng.
This was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
All the scholars in the State of Yue felt that it was everyone's responsibility to protect the crown prince's position.
This was not even for the Crown Prince, but for the interests of the scholars.
They spontaneously publicized the decisive battle led by the Crown Prince.
He worked hard to write poems and stories, and he even paid storytellers to tell stories about the battle of Nan Ou Kingdom in restaurants and inns.
For a moment, it was simply overwhelming, and the whole world was watching!
Even the old farmers in the most remote mountains knew that a holy war was about to break out. His Highness the Crown Prince would personally go out to destroy the State of Yue's greatest enemy, Prince Jin. This was a battle that would destroy the country, and in exchange, the State of Yue would have decades of peace and stability.
Even the idiots on the streets shouted, "When the Crown Prince comes, Prince Jin will die! When the Crown Prince comes, Nan Ou Kingdom will fall! "
In this tsunami of cheers, the Crown Prince led the cavalry into Tiannan City.
At this time, Ning Yi welcomed the most powerful reinforcements.
Sky-sea Pavilion warriors!
There were only two hundred of them, but they were all experts.
Of course, they had no markings on them.
The one leading the two hundred Sky-sea Pavilion warriors was another disciple of Pavilion Master Zuo Ci, Li Nanfeng!
From this, it could be seen how much importance Princess Ning Han placed on Ning Yi's battle.
These two hundred experts only had one purpose, and that was to protect Ning Yi.
This was the true pride of the heavens.
He was doted on by tens of thousands of people.
The Crown Prince entered the Governor's Office to see Governor Zhu Jung!
… …..
Governor Zhu Jung's illness was real. He had worked hard for the past few months and had indeed overdrawn himself.
But this serious illness was fake. It was only after taking special medicine that his life seemed to be in danger.
"Your Highness, I cannot bow to you."
Ning Yi said, "Uncle, you don't have to be so polite. I will remember everything you have done for me."
Governor Zhu Jung said, "My State of Yue's 200,000 soldiers have surrounded Prince Jin's 30,000 soldiers for almost a month. But if the Crown Prince did not come, we would not dare to fight this battle."
Of course they would not dare to fight.
If the Crown Prince did not come, the battle would be won and Prince Jin would be eliminated. That would be embarrassing.
If he fell before he even fired, would it show that his marksmanship was especially accurate?
Governor Zhu Jung said, "Your Highness, everything is ready for the battlefield in Nan Ou. We only need one thing, and that thing is you."
The Crown Prince said, "Is everything ready?"
Governor Zhu Jung said, "Everything is ready. Only more, no less."
That was strange.
When the war started, the Zhu Clan did their best. Their supplies were still tight.
Now that the 200,000 soldiers surrounded Prince Jin, they had more supplies.
It was not strange at all.
Before, no one knew who would win and who would lose. They were afraid that their investments would be wasted.
But now that they were about to win, the merchants, nobles, and even the Yinyuan Association could afford it.
Every day, there would be mountains of supplies being transported to Nan Ou. Everyone was willing to do the icing on the cake.
Zhu Rong said, "For this war, our Zhu Family has almost taken out all the resources we have accumulated for decades."
Crown Prince Ning Yi said, "I will never forget grandfather and uncle's kindness."
Zhu Jung said, "Your Highness, I am not saying this to show my kindness. I want to tell you to be careful, careful, and careful!"
Crown Prince Ning Yi said, "I understand, uncle."
Governor Zhu Rong said, "After you go to Nan Ou, you have to trust Zhu Lin and Nan Gong Ao. They are both experienced generals."
Crown Prince Ning Yi was a little unhappy when he heard that.
Zhu Jung, what do you mean? You don't trust me?
To put it bluntly, you want me to make a statue for people to worship?
That was Zhu Jung's intention.
Crown Prince, you only need to send people. As for your wisdom and talent, you can use it later.
This time, you can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor.
Do you think I am a three-year-old?
But Zhu Jung did not dare to be careless. If the 200,000 soldiers were lost, the Zhu Clan's decades of work in the State of Yue would go down the drain.
His position as Crown Prince would also be in danger.
Ning Yi said, "Don't worry, uncle. This time, I will only bring my eyes and ears to Nan Ou, not my mouth.
Zhu Jung knew that the Crown Prince was unhappy and quickly softened his tone, "Your Highness, you are exaggerating!"
The Crown Prince suddenly said, "Shen Lang said that Prince Jin might be plotting something. What do you think, uncle?"
Zhu Jung was silent for a moment, "As a commander, I have to consider everything. Shen Lang said that Prince Jin is plotting something to lure the snake out of its hole. But of course, it is ridiculous. After all, he lost two-thirds of his army. But we still have to be on guard. So, I only have one thing to say to the Crown Prince. If Prince Jin escapes into Da Nan, our army must not chase after him. Do not enter the forests or mountains. "
Crown Prince Ning Yi nodded, "I understand."
Governor Zhu Rong emphasized again, "Within the Great Nan Kingdom, there are dense forests and high mountains everywhere. Our army can't fight freely, and we will be exhausted to death. If Prince Jin escapes, do not chase after him. "
Crown Prince Ning Yi said, "I understand!"
… …
The next day!
Crown Prince Ning Yi led 10,000 troops into Nan Ou!
The State of Yue's army on the battlefield reached an astonishing 210,000.
Five days later!
Crown Prince Ning Yi arrived at the battlefield!
"Zhu Lin greets Your Highness."
"Nangong Ao greets Your Highness."
These generals were rather reserved, but the remaining high-ranking officers were very direct in their fawning.
"We look up to the Crown Prince like a baby looking up to his parents. With Your Highness here, the battle is settled."
"Yes, yes, yes. With Your Highness here, we will be at ease!"
Crown Prince Ning Yi returned the salute meticulously and said, "Big Sister, General Zhu Lin, General Nangong, you are all famous generals of your generation. I will be relying on you to decide how to fight this battle. I am here to learn. I will only bring my eyes and ears, not my mouth!"
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this.
A general was most afraid of being blindly commanded by a superior.
It was great that the Crown Prince had such an attitude.
But verbally, everyone had to suck up to him.
Your Highness is wise, and we will follow your lead.
As long as the Crown Prince gives the order, we will go through fire and water without hesitation.
Crown Prince Ning Yi said, "There is a rumor in the capital that Prince Jin is short of food. Is it true?"
Princess Ning Luo said, "It is true. Because … they have started to eat their own kind."
Everyone couldn't help but vomit when they heard this.
General Zhu Lin said, "All the wounded soldiers of the Sand Barbaric Tribe were killed and made into jerky."
Ning Yi said, "Then is it true that a plague broke out in Prince Jin's army?"
"It is true." Nangong Ao said, "We saw it clearly from above. The corpses were arranged neatly and then burned. There were countless of them. If it wasn't for the plague, it wouldn't have happened!"
… …
Then is it true that Prince Jin's army started to eat humans?
It is false!
To be honest, the Sand Barbaric Tribe did do this in the past.
But after Prince Jin unified the Sand Barbaric Tribe, the first thing he did was set a law. Cannibals must die!
Then what did the State of Yue's scouts see about the so-called cannibalism?
It was dummies made of dough.
They were cut off with a knife and put into a pot to cook. Then they were divided and eaten.
Because the distance was too far, and this matter was too horrifying, no one doubted the authenticity of this matter.
Especially the Sand Barbaric Tribe, who had a previous record.
So is the plague true or false?
It was normal for a plague to happen in the army.
Especially in an army like the Sand Barbaric Tribe, their hygiene was poor.
But after Prince Jin succeeded the throne, as long as it was in his army, all the water had to be boiled before drinking. This was learned from Shen Lang.
Of course, the Sand Barbaric Tribe's warriors had lived in this dangerous environment for a long time. They had already trained their stomachs to be iron. No matter how dirty the water was, no one would be affected.
Therefore, many people felt that drinking boiled water was completely superfluous.
Because of this!
Prince Jin even used special methods.
For example, he poisoned the water, causing the Sand Barbaric Tribe's warriors who drank the water to suffer from a large scale disease.
Of course, these people were cured, but horrifying traces were left behind. The scene was too horrible to look at.
From then on, the Sand Barbaric Tribe's army also started to drink boiled water.
Not only that, Prince Jin also brought in a few hundred doctor monks from the Great Tribulation Temple.
So basically, there wouldn't be a large-scale plague.
So why was there a rumor of a plague?
It was very simple!
Just let a group of people wrap themselves up and burn the corpses.
In this war, the Sand Barbaric Tribe suffered countless casualties.
Previously, the Sand Barbaric Tribe's custom was to bury the corpses. There was no such thing as burning corpses.
Now, Prince Jin gave the order to cremate the corpses on a large scale.
Every day, more and more corpses were burned.
Moreover, the people who carried the corpses and burned them were all wrapped up from head to toe.
From a few dozen corpses a day to a few hundred.
When the State of Yue's scouts saw this, they naturally determined that there was a plague.
Humans were very strange creatures. They were especially willing to believe what they saw, and even more so what they were willing to believe.
For example, the Sand Barbaric Tribe's cannibalism was definitely real. They were definitely short of food.
If there wasn't a plague, why would they burn the corpses and wrap them up tightly?
That was why Prince Jin was so awesome.
He had completely used psychological tactics to the extreme.
Even if it was an act, it was done to the extreme.
… …
Crown Prince Ning Yi was overjoyed.
The timing, location, and manpower were all on my side.
It would be hard not to win now.
"Generals, when can we start the war?" His attitude was still very humble.
Nangong Ao didn't know how to reply, so he looked at Zhu Lin.
"We have already prepared and can start the war at any time," General Zhu Lin said, "It will be the 9th of December in three days, which is an auspicious time. We can start the war then!"
Nangong Ao nodded.
Princess Ning Luo nodded.
Crown Prince Ning Yi said, "Alright, it will be the 9th of December! Let's start the war and eliminate Prince Jin! "
Princess Ning Luo said, "Now that there are many fierce generals on the battlefield, there is no need for a woman like me. I will return to the capital of Nan Ou Kingdom."
Everyone nodded in agreement!
The next day, Princess Ning Luo led 10,000 troops back to the capital of Nan Ou Kingdom!
… …
Anyone would be shocked if they looked down at the entire battlefield.
There were military camps, ravines, and temporary fortresses made of wood everywhere on the ground that spanned dozens of miles.
It was really boundless, covering the sky and the earth.
The 210,000 troops of the State of Yue really surrounded the entire Black Water Stronghold.
Only one-fifth of the Black Water Stronghold was built. After 20 years, a lot of it had collapsed, and now there were less than 3,000 acres left.
The walls were all made of wood and were about two meters tall.
It was tall enough.
But after 20 years of wind and rain, it had started to rot, and it even started to sway when the wind blew.
Relying on this wall to defend? It was almost impossible.
… …
In these three days!
Prince Jin's camp in the Black Water Stronghold was very quiet.
There was no cannibalism or burning corpses.
But this made the State of Yue's army believe that the Sand Barbarians were short of food, and there was a plague.
The reason why they stopped cannibalism was because they knew that the final battle was coming, so they released all the remaining food.
As for burning corpses.
It was also because they knew that the final battle was coming, so it didn't matter how much the plague spread.
Look, Prince Jin didn't even need to act, and the State of Yue could already imagine it.
So how did Prince Jin know that the final battle was coming?
Even a fool would know. Because Crown Prince Ning Yi's flag had been erected in every corner of the State of Yue's military camp, high up in the sky.
… …
Three days passed by quickly!
On the 9th of December, the 210,000 troops of the State of Yue officially launched an all-out attack on the Black Water Stronghold.
The final battle between Crown Prince Ning Yi and Prince Jin was about to begin!
According to Ning Yi's imagination, he and Prince Jin should be king to king.
It should be like in the history books. Before the battle started, the rulers of the two countries would appreciate each other, talk to each other, and drink a few cups of wine.
If that was the case, Ning Yi would definitely keep them company.
However, Prince Jin didn't even show up. This disappointed Crown Prince Ning Yi. He missed a chance to show off his kingly demeanor.
The sun was about to rise!
The generals of the State of Yue all stared at Crown Prince Ning Yi.
They were waiting for his command!
Crown Prince Ning Yi climbed up the platform step by step!
This platform was very high, more than a hundred feet high. It could almost overlook the entire battlefield.
It could also see the Sand Barbaric Tribe's army in the Black Water Stronghold.
Every step Ning Yi took, he felt extremely heroic, as if he had ascended to the throne in advance.
After this battle!
Who can stop me from ruling the State of Yue?
No one!
Even my father, Ning Yuanxian, can't, let alone a clown like Shen Lang.
When I succeed the throne, Ning Zheng will die, Shen Lang will die, and Jin Zhuo will die!
Jin Mulan, even after five or ten years, you will still be mine.
Don't worry, I can wait!
At this moment, Crown Prince Ning Yi was even grateful to Prince Jin in his heart.
Thank you for being so powerful and so magical. That's how I was able to achieve this feat.
Sha Jin, you are destined to be my stepping stone.
The more glorious your performance was, the more I, Ning Yi, am destined to be.
When the Crown Prince ascends the platform!
The sun suddenly jumped up.
Was it a coincidence?
Of course not. Ning Yi had calculated the time to climb the platform.
Also, the first ray of sunlight shone directly on the platform, on Crown Prince Ning Yi.
In an instant, his entire body was golden and exuded a noble aura.
Dozens of generals and countless soldiers of the State of Yue raised their heads and saluted.
More than a hundred thousand soldiers looked up at Ning Yi.
He was truly the center of attention.
In everyone's eyes, Crown Prince Ning Yi was like the rising sun. No one could stop him.
Ning Yi suppressed the surging emotions in his heart.
"Where is Prince Jin? Why hasn't he appeared? Why won't you let me see you? "
He took a deep breath.
Ning Yi roared, "Today's battle will ensure the peace of the State of Yue for decades to come!"
"Long live, long live, long live!"
"Long live the State of Yue! Long live the State of Yue!"
The two hundred thousand soldiers shouted in unison!
Their voices shook the heavens!
Crown Prince Ning Yi pulled out his sword and shouted with all his might, "Start the battle! Kill all the Sand Barbaric rebels!"
Instantly!
A deafening war drum sounded!
More than a hundred thousand soldiers of the State of Yue surged towards the fragile Black Water Stronghold!
The final battle had begun!
Kill, kill, kill!
… … …
The battle had entered a state of white light from the very beginning!
The wooden walls of the Black Water Stronghold could not withstand a single blow!
In less than a quarter of an hour, almost all the walls of the stronghold had been pushed down.
Countless Vietnamese soldiers swarmed into the stronghold!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh … …
The rain of arrows from the Sand Barbaric Tribe appeared!
They were indeed sharp!
But how many waves of arrows could they unleash?
Even though there were many casualties, it was nothing compared to the numbers of the State of Yue's army.
The two armies quickly engaged each other in close combat!
Close quarters combat!
The State of Yue had close to two hundred thousand soldiers, while the Sand Barbaric Tribe had less than forty thousand!
But … …
The Sand Barbaric Tribe's shocking combat power was evident.
With such a huge disparity in military strength, they were evenly matched.
There was no strategy, just a clash of lives and blood.
The entire battlefield was in a state of chaos and darkness.
Blood filled the air!
… … …
Crown Prince Ning Yi stood on the platform and heaved a sigh of relief.
Before the battle, he was really worried that Prince Jin would have some kind of plot in the Black Water Stronghold.
He even imagined a few horrifying scenarios in his mind.
For example, after the army charged in, they realized that there was no one inside. The Sand Barbaric Tribe had all fled.
Or, after charging in, they realized that there were traps everywhere.
He even put himself in Prince Jin's shoes and thought about how to fight this battle.
For example, digging a large number of tunnels. Tens of thousands of people would be able to dig through the entire Black Water Stronghold in a month's time.
Once they entered the tunnels, the State of Yue's advantage in numbers would disappear.
In the narrow tunnels, the Sand Barbaric Tribe warriors would be able to maximize their agility and bravery!
Or, they could use plague tactics.
The entire Black Water Stronghold was filled with infected corpses.
In short, Ning Yi had come up with countless battle strategies for Prince Jin in his mind.
Because he thought that Prince Jin was a very powerful person and would definitely have some tricks up his sleeves.
In the end, there was none!
It was the most barbaric, direct, and bloody battle.
That's good, that's good!
What's there to be afraid of when I have many times more soldiers than you?
Prince Jin, everyone says that you're powerful, but that's all there is to it.
I'm going to win this battle!
As the State of Yue's army charged into the Black Water Stronghold, the encirclement became smaller and smaller.
But …
Soon, Ning Yi couldn't laugh anymore.
From the looks of it, the State of Yue's army had the absolute advantage.
It was as if the boundless sea had surrounded a reef in the middle.
But it was also like the raging waves crashing into the reef, instantly shattering into pieces!
At the place where the two armies were fighting.
The State of Yue's army was actually at a disadvantage!
How could the Sand Barbaric Tribe be so powerful?
With less than forty thousand soldiers, they were still undefeated against nearly two hundred thousand soldiers?
This wasn't surprising at all.
When Prince Jin's army of a hundred thousand attacked the capital of Nan Ou, Zhu Lin's army was also a hundred thousand strong. Even with the fortified city, they were almost defeated.
And in the previous battles, as the defending side, the State of Yue's casualties were actually twenty to thirty thousand more than the State of Yue's.
Now that they were fighting in the wilderness, the Sand Barbaric Tribe's bravery was fully displayed.
In the hearts of the State of Yue's generals.
Prince Jin's army had experienced the food shortage incident and the plague. They must have lost a lot of soldiers and their morale was low.
In fact, they didn't lose any soldiers at all. Their morale was still high.
These people were all lunatics. They had struggled to survive in the face of death since they were young.
He had been through much more desperate predicaments than this. What did this count for?
Of course, it was scary to be surrounded by four to five times the number of soldiers. But could it compare to being surrounded by a dozen wolves?
… …
The fierce battle was still going on!
The sky was shaking, and blood flowed like a river.
The State of Yue's army was disappearing at an alarming rate.
Although Prince Jin's Sand Barbaric Tribe was also suffering from casualties, the number was shocking.
But the more they died, the crazier they became.
In the end, they were like crazed beasts, charging forward to seek their own deaths.
Every single one of them looked like they wanted to perish together with the enemy.
The State of Yue's army was getting more and more frightened as they fought.
They even started to look left and right to see if there were more people behind them. They needed a sense of security.
This extremely bloody battle was like snow melting under the scorching sun.
Every minute, every second, countless people were dying!
General Zhu Lin's scalp went numb. Nangong Ao was terrified.
Why weren't these people in despair?
They had been surrounded for more than a month. Why weren't they depressed?
Ning Yi, who was standing on the high ground, was truly shocked. He even trembled as he asked Zhu Lin, "We won't lose, right?"
Were the Sand Barbaric Tribe's warriors really this strong?
General Zhu Lin said, "I request to fight!"
Crown Prince Ning Yi nodded. "Granted!"
Immediately, General Zhu Lin led his personal guards and charged into the battlefield!
He led the Zhu Clan's most elite warriors. As expected, they stopped their decline.
The State of Yue's army once again gained the upper hand!
But …
Another half an hour passed!
The State of Yue's army was once again in chaos.
Because they had never experienced such a crazy battle.
They were not facing an army, but a group of beasts.
One of the State of Yue's army could not stand such a terrifying massacre and turned to escape.
The entire situation was once again on the verge of collapse.
Nangong Ao said, "Your Highness, I request to fight!"
"Granted!"
Nangong Ao led a few thousand personal guards to fight.
Once again, they stopped their decline.
Crown Prince Ning Yi felt a chill run down his spine.
He did not expect that Prince Jin's army did not have any tricks. Even with such a huge disparity in military strength, they were still so valiant. They actually forced two of their generals to personally fight.
Another half an hour passed!
Another State of Yue's army's morale collapsed. They turned to escape.
The law enforcement team was already killing with all their might, but they still could not stop their escape.
One army's escape could mean the collapse of the entire battle. Even now, the State of Yue's army was still several times that of Prince Jin's army.
"Your Highness, I request to fight!"
This person was the Crown Prince's direct descendant, Zhang Zhao, the former Tianyue Commander.
The 10,000 cavalrymen he led were the State of Yue's last army.
Half of this army was brought by the Crown Prince from the capital. The other half were elite cavalrymen from the State of Yue's aristocrats.
These 10,000 cavalrymen were there to hold the line. They would not fight at all. Their only goal was to protect the Crown Prince.
But now there was no other way!
The battle was about to collapse.
Zhang Zhao looked at Sky-sea Pavilion's Li Nanfeng!
"Don't worry. My 200 Sky-sea Pavilion warriors will definitely protect the Crown Prince!"
Li Nanfeng had absolute confidence. The 200 top warriors he led were all top-notch experts. They looked down on all martial arts in the world.
They might not be suitable for the battlefield, but protecting the Crown Prince was definitely not a problem!
"Granted!"
Crown Prince Ning Yi ordered.
Zhang Zhao led 10,000 cavalrymen and charged into the battlefield!
Finally, the decline was stopped once again!
Crown Prince Ning Yi was drenched in sweat. His scalp was numb.
He had not expected the battle to be so dangerous and shocking.
All three generals had joined the battle.
Even his main army had joined the fray.
Finally!
Prince Jin's Sand Barbarian army had been squeezed to the limit.
The entire battlefield had reached a new equilibrium.
The State of Yue's army had once again gained the upper hand.
Crown Prince Ning Yi did not know the casualties on both sides.
But Li Nanfeng estimated that the Sand Barbarians had suffered more than 10,000 casualties, while the State of Yue had suffered about 30,000 to 40,000 casualties.
Crown Prince Ning Yi gasped when he heard this comparison.
The State of Yue's soldiers were exchanging three for one?
What was even more infuriating was that even though the State of Yue's army had suffered 30,000 to 40,000 casualties, it was not more than a quarter of the total. There were still 160,000 of them who were on the verge of collapse.
On the other hand, Prince Jin's Sand Barbarian army had suffered more than one-third casualties, but their morale was still high.
The difference between the two armies was too great.
Fortunately, they had made ample preparations. Fortunately, they had prepared 200,000 soldiers.
Otherwise, the outcome of this battle would be uncertain.
At this point, the outcome was basically decided.
This was a kind of momentum!
Once the balance of the battle began to tilt, it would be very difficult to salvage the situation without the influence of external forces.
Previously, the State of Yue had been on the verge of collapse several times, but new reinforcements had been sent to stop the decline.
But Prince Jin did not have any reinforcements!
Therefore, this battle was about to be won.
"Oh no, Prince Jin is trying to break out!" Li Nanfeng suddenly said.
Indeed!
The remaining 20,000 Sand Barbarian soldiers were preparing to break out.
And the commander-in-chief and generals were at the forefront, forming a dagger formation to break out!
The leader wore a silver mask and held a silver spear. He was courageous and invincible. Riding on a warhorse, he was almost invincible.
Was that Prince Jin?
That figure seemed familiar!
But Crown Prince Ning Yi could not care less.
He ordered loudly, "Block him, block him! We must not let the enemy break out!"
But …
It was useless!
The difference in combat power between the two sides was too great.
General Zhu Lin and General Nangong Ao personally charged to stop the enemy commander-in-chief.
Still, they could not stop him!
The State of Yue army was already afraid.
Seeing the Sand Barbarian army break out, they heaved a sigh of relief.
The ferocity of the battle just now was truly frightening. They were not saints, nor were they wild beasts. They knew fear.
Just like that!
The Sand Barbarian commander-in-chief led 20,000 soldiers and easily tore an opening in the State of Yue's encirclement. They broke out and killed their way out!
Zhu Lin and Nangong Ao led the cavalry in pursuit!
But the Black Water Stronghold was still relatively flat.
Outside of the Black Water Stronghold, there were forests and mountains everywhere.
It was not advantageous for the cavalry to pursue.
These Sand Barbarian warriors split up and burrowed into the mountains and forests. They were extremely fast, as if they were walking on flat ground.
They could not catch up at all!
Facing such an army in this kind of terrain was truly hopeless.
There were cavalry and hundreds of thousands of soldiers, but they could only watch helplessly as they broke out of the encirclement and disappeared without a trace!
But …
Crown Prince Ning Yi was not very depressed.
It was fine as long as they won!
He was pragmatic.
He had been completely shocked by the fierce battle that had lasted for a few hours.
He no longer wanted to destroy Prince Jin.
It was a great victory to be able to drive him out of Nan 'ou.
Anyway, he could write whatever he wanted.
A victory was a victory!
Although it was not a complete victory, it was still a great victory.
And at this moment!
The Sand Barbarian commander-in-chief turned around.
He rode on a tall horse and looked at Crown Prince Ning Yi from afar.
Crown Prince Ning Yi was stunned.
This person was Prince Jin? Why was he wearing a silver mask?
He did not want to meet Ning Yi previously. What did this mean?
Although the Sand Barbarian army was extremely powerful, Prince Jin had lost!
And at this moment!
The Sand Barbarian commander-in-chief took off the silver mask on his face.
His handsome face was revealed.
The Crown Prince trembled. He could not believe his eyes!
It was actually him?
"Hahahaha, Ning Yi, you did not expect it to be me, did you? You did not expect me to be alive! "
This person!
The former Marquis of Zhenyuan of the State of Yue, Su Nan!
No wonder the silver spear was invincible.
No wonder Crown Prince Ning Yi felt that he looked very familiar.
It was actually Su Nan?
Wasn't … wasn't he dead?
Not only was he not dead, but his martial arts seemed to have advanced.
Crown Prince Ning Yi shivered all over!
The enemy commander-in-chief was actually not Prince Jin?
