For several days in a row, the army of Yunguo's North Road moved frequently.

The mobilization of the 200,000-strong army naturally attracted the attention of those who were interested.

For example, the second prince cloud hook.

Nowadays, there are three armies in Yunguo, namely the North Road, the Middle Road and the South Road.

The Northern Route Army belongs to the eldest prince Yunyi.

The Southern Route Army belongs to the second prince Yungou.

The Middle Route Army is the main army of 400,000 in the Yun Kingdom.

The total of the three armies is 800,000.

This is all the offensive forces that the current Cloud Country can dispatch.

As soon as the war began, the soldiers were constantly consumed, and although there were many replenishments, they could not fill the gap after all.

Of the 800,000 troops, less than seventy percent remained.

In other words, the army attacking Chu now only has the appearance of 500,000 troops.

However, this 500,000 army has to face more than 300,000 elite divisions of the Chu State.

The Northern Route army mobilized alone was to attack the weak place of Chu with the strength of hundreds of thousands of troops.

Perhaps, this is a real uphill battle.

However, at the critical moment of the struggle for reserves, there is no room for any retreat.

It was a few days later that the army of the South Road directly launched a fierce attack on the Chu army defending the river.

The Chu army was defeated and retreated.

If you don't retreat, you can't do it, the war has been fought so far, and the soldiers and horses that have been transferred away one after another in the past few months are a very large number, almost half of the troops have been transferred, and due to the lack of money and food, the Chu State is unable to replenish new soldiers, so it can only be defended, and if you lose the natural danger of the river, you can only abandon the city and flee.

The army of the North Road and the army of the South Road advanced towards the state of Chu in a way that did not cost it, which immediately made the Chu army greatly embarrassed.

Before the end of the year, the news that the Emperor of Yunguo was coughing up blood when he was sacrificing to the sky spread to the front line.

"My father is sick and can't support ......"

In the front-line military tent, Yun Hook, the second prince of Yun Kingdom, held the letter tightly, his eyes were gloomy, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were bursting out, almost crushed.

"Your Highness is the prince of the prince, Your Majesty is seriously ill, and Your Highness should be even more grateful for the unity of the family and the country." A strategist dressed in a white robe persuaded.

"Lang Heng, you have been with this prince for many years, if you have anything to say, you don't have to beat around the bush." Cloud Hook said.

"Your Royal Highness, the dispute between the prince has always been cruel and bloody, the eldest prince heard the news that His Majesty was unwell, and he had already led the army westward, and in the past few days, I have also found that there are many traces of the great prince's fine work in the military camp...... Your Royal Highness, listen to the next sentence of persuasion, the eldest prince has no regard for brotherhood, why should His Highness be persistent? ”

"Really...... Have you come this far? Yun Hook hesitated a little, and muttered: "Brother Huang, why do you treat me like this, it wasn't like this before......"

"Your Royal Highness, the royal family affection is the most indifferent, the eldest prince is no longer the eldest prince of the past, at this moment he is not your royal brother, but a person who regards you as the first enemy to compete for the throne!"

Lang Heng's words were serious, and his face was full of ardent anticipation.

"You say, if I go and tell the imperial brother to give up the fight for the crown, do you think the imperial brother will ......?"

"Confused!" Lang Heng was extremely angry and said loudly: "Your Highness, once you do this, what will you do with the thousands of brothers who follow Your Highness, as well as the ministers in the court?" One day, if the eldest prince ascends the throne, their monarchs and ministers will completely control the entire Yun Kingdom in order to sweep away the threat, but anyone who has a relationship with His Royal Highness will fall into the abyss, and at that time, His Royal Highness will have no way to live!"

"Fighting for the reserve, does it have to be you to live or die?" Cloud hooks are still unacceptable.

"Yes, you live or die, this is a war where everything is staked, the winner wins everything, and the loser loses everything! Your Highness, the major affairs of the family and the country must be decided as soon as possible!"

"You live or die...... You live or ......die," Yun Hook muttered, and then said firmly: "Okay, I'll go out and compete for the position of this prince, and I will let everyone see when the time comes, I Yun Hook will not do that cannibalistic thing!"

"Okay, without further ado, Your Highness will return home quickly!" Lang Heng Hi.

In the middle of the night, a team of fast horses evacuated from the front line and galloped home.

……

Recently, Meng Huo's heart was a little restless.

It stands to reason that the eldest prince has led the army to advance and captured more than ten cities one after another, which can be said to be one step ahead of the second prince and occupies a very big advantage.

However, since the news that His Majesty the Emperor was seriously ill came, he felt a sense of crisis.

Then, the second prince's side stopped attacking.

This made him feel very uneasy, and the emperor's selection and establishment of the prince was no secret for a long time.

However, at this time, before the prince was established, the emperor was seriously ill, what should the entire Yun Kingdom do next?

The selection of the prince, coupled with the truce of the army on the southern route, put Meng Huo in a dilemma.

His intuition told him that the second prince had adopted a special method.

Most likely, the army has been left behind and returned home directly.

Also, these days, the news that His Majesty the Emperor is seriously ill has spread in the army.

Obviously, he issued a ban that anyone who enters or leaves the barracks is not allowed to talk about His Majesty the Emperor.

The military order is like a mountain, and the slightest sentence is a major event of killing the head, and most of the people who come from outside are transporting military rations, and no one dares to reveal the slightest bit of information.

Just this afternoon, he found some pieces of paper in the barracks.

and, the Sima lamp invented by Cangguo.

The situation is sensitive, and everything smells of conspiracy.

It's like there's an invisible hand behind it, pushing it all in.

Is it Cangguo?

No, the four countries are attacking Chu and borrowing from each other, and there is no reason for Cangguo to do this.

Moreover, Cangguo's hand can't reach so long.

Although Sima Lantern was the first to be created in Cangguo, it is not very difficult to make, perhaps someone imitated it.

Without thinking too much, he rushed to the emperor's tent in the middle of the night.

"Your Highness, this matter is urgent!"

The first sentence he saw, Meng Huo said very seriously.

"What does the general mean?" Yun Yi suddenly came to his senses.

"In the meantime, Your Highness should immediately rush to the country and serve Your Majesty without leaving."

"Can't be broken!" Yun Yi hurriedly waved his hand and said: "When the two brothers left the imperial capital, my father had already made it clear that unless this battle ended, they would not be allowed to return to Beijing without an edict. Besides, there are other princes around my father, and I can't say that there is no one to serve, so if I return to China abruptly, won't I anger my father and make my ministers laugh shamefully......"

"Childe is stupid!"

Meng Huo was angry with Yun Yi for the first time, and said loudly: "At this time, His Royal Highness should focus on the country's overall plan, and the rest are trivial matters, although Your Majesty has a strong temperament and strict laws, but Your Majesty is also a human being, a father, how can you not care about ethics and family affection?" Now that His Majesty is seriously ill, if His Royal Highness can return to China with a willing punishment, this is the heart of great filial piety, how can Your Majesty really care? Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty will hand over 200,000 troops to you, and try to compete with the second prince, but it is not just a march to fight, even if His Royal Highness destroyed the Chu State, but as long as Your Majesty is not happy, what is the use? ”

"That ......"

"If Your Highness is rigid and broad, won't you greatly bear Your Majesty's painstaking efforts to temper Your Highness?"

"The general doesn't need to say anything, just according to what he said, I will return to China immediately and fight." Yun Yi nodded after all.

"Good! Your Highness, but when you meet Your Majesty, this matter will be worry-free!"
