Chapter 727 Yan Youling
After Master Yan said this, he looked at the people who were fighting under the city!
Looking at the battle outside the city and the blood splattering, Master Yan not only did not feel afraid, but his eyes were full of excitement!
If other people saw Master Yan like this, they would probably think he was a monster!
The battle continued until nightfall.
In this battle, both sides suffered heavy losses!
Especially the Eighth Wise King who was on the attacking side, he lost a total of 5,000 people!
"Damn it!"
"Five thousand people!"
"Five thousand people!"
"You actually failed to take down Yanzhou City!?"
The Eighth Wise King slammed the table in anger!
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Subordinates deserve to die!"
"It's my subordinates who are useless!"
When the generals in the room saw the Eighth Wise King getting angry, they all panicked.
They quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
The Eighth Wise King was helpless as he watched this scene.
The generals under his command have worked very hard under his encouragement.
"Everyone, get up."
"This is not your fault. It's because those people in Yanzhou defended too well!"
The Eighth Wise King spoke softly.
Only after hearing what the Eighth Wise King said did the generals dare to stand up.
After everyone stood up, the Eighth Sage King took a deep breath and said, "Everyone, we don't have much time left."
"The imperial army is now only two days away from us!"
"If we can't take Yanzhou City within two days, we will have to retreat to the other two cities, or even retreat to Jiangnan!"
"By then, all our years of planning will be in vain!"
"So, everyone must go all out to attack the city. We...can't lose!"
"We will definitely do our best!"
The generals said this with gritted teeth!
……
When the Eighth Wise King saw this scene, he nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, all of you retreat! Go back and have a good rest, and prepare for tomorrow's battle!"
"As ordered!"
After the Eighth Wise King spoke, the generals left.
However, Tian Ye was retained by the Eighth Wise King.
"General Tian, what do you think of the current situation?"
"Your Highness, in my opinion, we have a chance to capture the Yanzhou City within two days!" Tian Ye said respectfully.
"Oh? You have confidence?" The Eighth Wise King was delighted when he heard that!
Tian Ye said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the reason why Yanzhou City is difficult to attack now is because they have 10,000 defenders and the help of the people!"
"But after today's battle, at least two thousand defenders in the city died!"
"We will intensify our attack tomorrow. Even if we can't take Yanzhou City tomorrow, we will definitely be able to take it the day after tomorrow!"
When the Eighth Wise King heard Tian Ye’s analysis, he felt relieved.
"Okay, General Tian, I'll leave this matter to you!"
"The day after tomorrow, before nightfall, we must capture Yanzhou City!"
"Otherwise, our situation will be dangerous!"
"If you can capture Yanzhou City, after I ascend the throne, you will be the first king of a different surname in the history of Dajing!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Tian Ye was extremely excited when he heard the words of the Eighth Wise King!
A king of a different surname!
That is the highest position a subject can reach!
He must work hard!
At the same time, in Yanzhou City.
Yan family.
The head of the Yan family sat in the hall, feeling restless!
Finally, the person he was waiting for showed up!
"Qing'er! You're finally back!"
"You...you have this blood on your body...!?"
When the head of the Yan family saw Young Master Yan, his eyes were full of worry!
……
"Father, I'm fine. This blood belongs to the enemies!"
Master Yan said this with a calm expression.
But the head of the Yan family sighed helplessly.
"Ugh!"
"Qing'er! I'm not saying anything bad about you, you... you are a girl!"
"It's fine if you don't want to learn red embroidery!"
"You...you actually went to the battlefield to kill the enemy!?"
"You... why are you doing this!?"
"Even if Yanzhou City is breached, the Eighth Sage King would not dare to touch our Yan Family!"
"you……"
The head of the Yan family became angrier as he spoke.
He really can't do anything about his own daughter!
It’s okay that I’ve loved reading since I was a child!
But who would have known that she just liked to read military books!
Later, she even changed into men's clothes and asked people to call her Young Master! ?
This...the head of the Yan family endured all of this.
After all, he has five sons, but only this one daughter, so he can just spoil her!
But now, Yan Youling actually went to join the battle!
This...if something goes wrong...
"Father, you know your child!"
"I like the art of war, but I am a girl and cannot fight in the battlefield!"
"This time we finally have a chance, just let the child go!"
"Don't worry, with my child here, Yanzhou County will be safe!"
Yan Youling said this with a determined look on her face.
However, after hearing what Yan Youling said, the head of the Yan family looked helpless.
He knew that he couldn't stop his precious daughter, so he could only arrange as many guards for her as possible!
Alas, I don’t know who a daughter like this will marry in the future!
Yan Youling saw that her father stopped talking, turned around and left the hall to continue patrolling the city defenses!
……
When Yan Youling came to the city wall and watched the dead bodies being carried away, there was some pity in her eyes.
But soon, she hid all her reluctance.
She knew that she couldn't be soft-hearted now.
She must defeat the Eighth Wise King!
Because of this, she will have the opportunity to join the imperial court and display her talents!
The next morning, the battle continued!
Compared to yesterday, the Eighth Wise King's men were even more ruthless today!
They are fearless and brave, and they all want to obtain the right to be granted a title of nobility!
Meanwhile, on the city wall, Yan Youling, the prefect of Yanzhou County, was also trying his best to boost the morale of the soldiers!
Yan Youling used all her skills to fight the enemy!
But even so, at the end of the day, the guards on the city suffered heavy losses!
If this continues, I'm afraid... they won't survive until tomorrow!
"Master Yan, otherwise... you should withdraw!"
"You have the Yan family's support, nothing will happen!"
The prefect of Yanzhou came to Yan Youling and started to persuade her.
"Haha, Mr. County Magistrate, do you think I will leave?"
"If I was going to leave, why didn't I come before?"
"Don't worry, I will definitely live and die with Yanzhou this time!"
Yan Youling said with a firm face!
If he couldn't even withstand the attack of the Eighth Sage King, how could she enter the court as a woman in the future! ?
She must give it a try!
"Ugh……"
The prefect of Yanzhou looked at Yan Youling's determined expression, sighed helplessly, and left.
He has already said all the things he should have said to persuade Yan Youling. If Yan Youling doesn't leave, the head of the Yan family cannot blame him if something happens in the future.
After all, he had tried his best.
However, now they only have more than 4,000 defenders left.
Although there are still many militiamen composed of civilians, they are still not enough to deal with the regular army!
Even their weapons were completely lost!
Can we really hold on at this rate?!
