On this end, the eldest prince has not rested since sending away the man in black.
However, until midnight, the news he hoped to get still did not come.
So, no more hesitation.
He was seen changing into regular clothes, carrying a sword, and quietly left the Prince's Mansion under the leadership of his confidants.
At about the end of Zishi, they appeared on the road leading to Pingjiang. After walking for a while, when we reached a hill, as a friend whistled, footsteps gradually sounded all around.
"This subordinate has met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
In the moonlight, a dark figure walked forward quickly and knelt down on one knee a few steps in front of the eldest prince.
"Everyone is here?"
The eldest prince asked lightly.
"We are all here. The five thousand warriors of Feihu Camp are waiting for you, Your Highness!"
The shadow responded.
The eldest prince squinted his eyes slightly and saw a mass of black heads slowly gathering together.
This is his last trump card.
Even when the south gate was attacked until it could no longer hold out, this mysterious team was never taken out.
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work. Without further ado, let's go!"
The eldest prince knew that this was not the time to be sensational. He would raise troops for a thousand days and use them for a while. What he wanted was their loyalty at this moment.
"promise!"
The black shadow was obviously the leader of this flying tiger camp, and he quickly responded to the order.
So, at midnight, these five thousand soldiers from the Flying Tiger Camp quietly headed towards Pingjiang like ghosts.
…
This night was destined to be an uneventful night.
For Li Ziyu, it was supposed to be a three-way march, but his march was the least smooth. After leaving Pingjiang, he encountered a strong blocker from Changsha soldiers. Although he did not lose his armor, he was still somewhat embarrassed.
Of the twenty thousand soldiers, five thousand were lost in one battle, which made Li Ziyu, who had always been conceited, feel sad and guilty.
This loss is not small, but what is annoying is that the original strategic purpose was not achieved. Moreover, what was even more annoying was that he was no longer able to leave Pingjiang as originally planned and tear open the east flank of the Changsha soldiers.
Therefore, he was a little unsure for a while, so he had to temporarily repair it in Pingjiang and try his best to prevent Changsha soldiers from crossing the border.
But, how can everything in this world go according to your plan?
It had only been two days of repairs when the tens of thousands of Changsha soldiers suddenly moved and came towards Pingjiang menacingly. This was naturally the work of Tang Hu, the eldest prince's most trusted personal guard commander. He took Prince Ping's concubine to General Peng and immediately asked him to mobilize troops and horses to attack Pingjiang.
After receiving the news, the scout hurried back to Pingjiang Camp from thirty miles away and reported the matter to Li Ziyu.
"Damn it, do you really think I'm easy to bully?"
Li Ziyu was so angry that he slapped the desk.
"Junior brother, please calm down. The enemy is pressing down on us. Do you have any good ideas?"
Senior brother Chu Yunzhi, who was responsible for protecting him, quickly reminded him.
"Hey, what's the best plan? Senior brother, in the last battle, I lost thousands of my brothers. I took them out to fight in the field. The enemy's army is several times larger than mine. How can I be my opponent? Under this situation, the only way is to hold on to the city and stop him for a moment. It’s just a matter of time. When General Xu and others break through Changsha, they will naturally send troops to help.”
Li Ziyu shook his head, but holding on was indeed the best way to stop the enemy at the moment.
"Brother, the soldiers from Changsha are not good. However, as I saw, they suddenly sent troops to Pingjiang. Perhaps General Xu and General Ling were about to break through Changsha, so they wanted to find a way to survive from Pingjiang. I wonder, this is the way to go. When he came to Pingjiang, he was probably going to Ezhou to join General Chen Su. However, even if he could get to Ezhou, he still didn't know that Chen Surong couldn't tolerate him! You know, he and Princess Mingzhu are not from the same mother. She’s alive!”
Li Ziyu talked to Chu Yunzhi again, but when he said this, his mind became much clearer.
