Ye Chen and the others arrived at Yuxing Pass.
The 300,000 people who had been stationed at Changlin Pass had split into three groups and retreated.
Because under such circumstances, they had no way of retreating. Hence, the 300,000 people split into three groups and retreated.
When they arrived at Yuxing Pass, a portion of the troops were already waiting.
The 100,000 man army was already waiting there.
Including the 300,000 man army brought by Ye Chen and the others, there was a total of 400,000 man army.
At this moment, the spy hurriedly reported, "Your Majesty, the second group of troops has already arrived at Yuxing Pass. The third group has been chased by the Nanxuan Army and is currently engaged in a bloody battle with the Nanxuan Army at Changfeng Pass!"
The second group of troops had arrived. At this moment, Ye Chen also had 500,000 man army.
500,000 soldiers should be enough to attack Nanxuan Kingdom.
When he heard this, Ye Chen was extremely surprised. He said repeatedly, "Am I still too late?"
"How many soldiers does the Nanxuan Kingdom have?" Ye Chen hurriedly asked.
"Your Majesty, Nanxuan Kingdom is coming aggressively this time. There are 300,000 soldiers in front and 200,000 soldiers behind the 300,000 soldiers. There is a total of 500,000 soldiers!"
Ye Chen looked at all the soldiers and said sternly, "Soldiers, our soldiers are currently at the frontlines fighting the enemy with their lives. What should we do?"
At this moment, all the soldiers shouted in unison, "Kill!"
"That's right, we should kill! Soldiers, follow me and kill our way back to Changfeng Pass. Let the Nanxuan Kingdom know how powerful our Eastern Imperial Kingdom is!"
Ye Chen shouted and immediately got on his white horse. He led the 400,000 man army and charged toward Changfeng Pass.
Wu Yue followed behind Ye Chen. Yang Xuan and Luo Shuihan did not lead the 100,000 man army behind Ye Chen.
Ye Chen led the army and charged straight toward Changfeng Pass.
At this moment, the Nanxuan Army had yet to break through Changfeng Pass.
However, Ye Chen's 100,000-strong army at the back was already running low.
The Nanxuan Kingdom had arrived too quickly. The civilians of Changfeng Pass had yet to be evacuated, and the 100,000-strong army at the back had no choice but to defend Changfeng Pass and fend off the army of the Nanxuan Kingdom!
Corpses littered the ground outside Changfeng Pass. The soldiers of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom were all lying on the battlefield as endless smoke of gunpowder spread out...
However, Changfeng Pass had not been broken yet. It was still the territory of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom!
The 100,000 strong army was guarding Changfeng Pass. They were the ones who had stayed behind to guard the rear, but none of them were afraid anymore. Each and every one of them had fought to the end, all the way until they died in battle.
If it were not for their resistance, how could Changfeng Pass still be unbroken until now?
When Ye Chen and the others rushed over, only a few thousand of the 100,000 man army were left. They had used their lives to guard Changfeng Pass.
Seeing that Ye Chen and the others had rushed over, at this moment, a lieutenant general with wounds all over his body knelt in front of Ye Chen.
He coughed up blood and looked at Ye Chen as he said, "Your Majesty, this humble subject has done it. We have defended Changfeng Pass!"
Just as Ye Chen was about to reach out to support him, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, unable to get up.
Ye Chen took a closer look. There were dozens of wounds of various sizes on his body. If it was anyone else who had suffered such serious injuries, they would have died long ago. However, he had relied on his own willpower to endure until now...all for the sake of handing over Changfeng Pass.
Ye Chen slowly sat down and closed his eyes.
Ye Chen stood on the city walls and raised his head to look.
He saw that the city walls were filled with corpses. Some were from the Eastern Imperial Kingdom, and some were from the Nanxuan Kingdom.
Fresh blood was splattered everywhere. Corpses were everywhere, and severed limbs and arms were everywhere.
At this moment...another deputy general, who was slightly injured, said, "Your Majesty, we have already withstood the seven waves of attacks from the Nanxuan Kingdom. If you don't come in the next wave, I'm afraid that we won't be able to hold on any longer. The civilians have yet to complete their evacuation. Even if our soldiers from the Eastern Imperial Kingdom die in battle, we will not take a step back!"
Ye Chen looked at him, his gaze somewhat moist. He raised his head, slightly moved by these iron-blooded men.
He looked at the deputy general and said, "Well done, all of you are well done. All of you are good soldiers of our Eastern Imperial Kingdom. Don't worry, since we're here, leave everything to us!"
At this moment, the Nanxuan Kingdom had yet to launch the eighth wave of attacks. The tactics used by the Nanxuan Kingdom were war by war. Every time they attacked, the battle situation would be extremely tragic.
However, the Eastern Imperial Kingdom only had a hundred thousand soldiers. How could they withstand the assault of three hundred thousand soldiers? Moreover, they did not even have a single general leading them.
The fact that they could withstand seven waves of assault was already beyond Ye Chen's imagination. In order to make the citizens of Changxing Pass retreat, they had cast an iron wall from their own lives, blocking the army of the Nanxuan Kingdom outside Changxing Pass.
Ye Chen looked at the corpses of the soldiers of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom outside the wall. Instantly, his anger burned, and he wished that he could tear the Nanxuan Kingdom apart.
At this moment, Ye Chen looked at a deputy general who was guarding Changfeng Pass and asked, "How is the evacuation of the civilians going?"
The deputy general hurriedly replied, "Reporting to your majesty, the evacuation of the civilians has been completed!"
Ye Chen nodded and said indifferently, "Yang Xuan, do you still remember that when we came here, there was a piece of grassland within the borders of Changfeng Pass?"
At this time, Yang Xuan hurriedly nodded and said, "I remember that Changfeng grassland is very big. Our 200,000-strong army couldn't even flatten it."
Ye Chen said indifferently, "Well, let's retreat first and go there!"
"Your Majesty, do you want to...?" Yang Xuan hurriedly asked.
Ye Chen still remembered the 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' that he had read before. Zhuge Liang burned Xinye, so he would burn Changfeng today!
"We only have 200,000 troops and are outnumbered, so we can not fight them head-on. We can only use our wits. At that time, we will first withdraw our troops to Changfeng Meadow. You will bring some people to deal with the Nanxuan Kingdom. Then, you will pretend that you are no match for them and lure them to Changfeng Meadow. We will let them taste our power!" Ye Chen said coldly.
"But Your Majesty, the enemy is in the east. If we want to use fire to attack, there must be an east wind. However, I have investigated it today. Today, the west wind is blowing. Using fire to attack is disadvantageous to us!" Yang Xuan hurriedly said.
Ye Chen replied indifferently, "It doesn't matter. As long as we lure them there, leave the matter of borrowing the wind to me. Since there is no east wind, I will borrow it!"
At Ye Chen's realm, he could already summon the wind and summon the rain.
Therefore, if he borrowed the east wind, he would definitely be able to let the Nanxuan Kingdom army have a good drink.
Thirty miles outside Changfeng Pass.
"Report --"
The spy rushed in front of the great general, Wang Siqi.
Wang Siqi looked at the spy indifferently and asked, "Speak, what's the matter?"
The spy hurriedly said, "Today, the army of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom has arrived!"
Hearing this, Wang Siqi was a little surprised and said indifferently, "I didn't expect the Eastern Imperial Kingdom to send their generals so quickly. Their speed is quite fast."
"What do you all think?" Wang Siqi looked at his subordinates and asked.
"The Eastern Imperial Kingdom is currently in a state of internal strife. There's simply no time for them to send people over. General, there's no need to panic.." One of the vice generals replied.
