The princess traveled through time for a year to help the prince build his kingdom and then left

Chapter 151 The Prince's Secret Letter

July 25th, noon.

After Xiao Yi left, Xiao Yifei suddenly felt uneasy.

Xiao Yifei had previously sent Peng Qing with 20,000 men to occupy Dingyang, intending to use Dingyang as the first stronghold for his march into the Eastern Kingdom.

His original plan was:

After Peng Qing occupied Dingyang, he led the main army into Dingyang.

After the army rested, it went further into the heart of the Eastern Kingdom and captured the second stronghold, Green City, a hundred miles north of Dingyang.

These steps must be completed before meeting Chu Tiancheng.

However, what he did not expect was that since the Southern Army's troops came from various counties in the country, it took too long to gather the troops.

On July 20th, Peng Qing occupied Dingyang City, but the main force of the army was able to set out from Linshan Town five days later.

Can he not be anxious?

I don’t know where Chu Tiancheng is?

Previous intelligence showed that Chu Tiancheng's 100,000 Eastern Army set out from the Imperial Capital on July 12. At normal speed, it is expected to arrive in Green City in about 15 days.

Xiao Yifei was thinking about Chu Tiancheng's itinerary in his mind when Peng Qing's men came with the news.

When the man saw Xiao Yifei, he jumped off his horse and quickly handed over an urgent battle report.

When Xiao Yifei took the battle report and read it, he was shocked.

"On July 24, Chu Tiancheng led 100,000 soldiers and horses to the outskirts of Anyang City and surrounded the city.

Please, Your Highness, send troops quickly to relieve the siege of Dingyang."

Xiao Yifei quickly took out the map and looked at it carefully.

Chu Tiancheng arrived too quickly, three days earlier than expected.

"Commander!"

Xiao Yifei yelled.

A soldier came running over.

"Send a message to Peng Qing, tell him to hold Dingyang. The main force of the army will arrive in three days."

After the messenger left, he called another soldier.

"Send a message to Xiao Yi, tell the whole army to speed up and not to stop. We must reach Nanyang City tonight."

There was a firmness and determination in his voice.

Xiao Yi was walking at the front of the team. They had already set out for two hours, but the team was too long and the end of the team had not yet left Linshan Town.

After hearing the order, the soldiers walking behind quickened their pace, their pace became more rapid, and the sound of horse hooves became louder.

Xiao Yifei looked at the endless line of people and felt a little relieved.

Although there are still many unknown difficulties waiting for him ahead, when he thinks of the 400,000 troops under his command, he firmly believes that no difficulty is insurmountable.

Xiao Yifei couldn't help but feel a surge of ambition in his heart.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, in Kunyang City, Wang Feng's base.

A messenger came in and handed a military token and a letter wrapped in cloth to Wang Feng.

"General, this is the military token and a letter that King Yan asked me to give you!" the soldier said, panting, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

Wang Feng unfolded the military token, on which was engraved a large Chinese character “Shuai”, representing the authority of the supreme commander.

"General Wang, I have sent Zuo Qingyun as a general with 10,000 soldiers to support Kunyang. You must defend Kunyang."

He opened the cloth-wrapped letter again, and inside was a piece of paper. He read every line carefully, his brows gradually furrowed.

It turned out that this letter was written to him by Chu Tiancheng himself.

"Wang Feng, my princess is determined to go to Kunyang, you must protect her.

The princess has some abilities, you shouldn't underestimate her.

You can discuss all matters concerning Kunyang with Master Zuo and the Princess, and then make a decision."

Ah? Wang Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Zuo Qingyun is a counselor trusted by the prince, so it is okay to discuss military affairs with him.

Why is Princess Yan also allowed to participate in the military discussion?

If the three of them disagree, who will make the final decision?

Wang Feng was hesitating when someone came to report: "Zuo Qingyun has arrived at the city with 10,000 soldiers and horses."

"Quick, quick, open the city gate and welcome General Zuo into the city."
