Huang Feng did not follow the lonely army on the way, but continued to stay with the Eighth Prince. He had promised Princess Qi to ensure the safety of the Eighth Prince. Therefore, for the sake of safety, he stayed with the Eighth Prince. It's better around him. As for the battle ahead, he believes that even without him, there will be no surprises.
Two days later, in front of a city occupied by the rebels, the first troops sent by the eighth princes had arrived here and, in accordance with Huang Feng’s request, sent a signal. According to Huang Feng when they left, as long as they send a signal, then , Someone will come to meet them.
"You said, will anyone really come to meet us?" A general asked another general next to him: "Why do I think this thing is not so reliable."
"I think so too." The general next to him also agreed: "The person who said that was a guard next to the Eighth Prince, just a guard. What can I know? Can I still have my own army?"
"Could it be instructed by the Eighth Prince, the Eighth Prince arranged for someone to come over in advance to meet us?" the general said before.
"I don't think it's possible." The person just said: "What is the status of the eight princes in the court, presumably you also know that there were no generals to rely on him before, and all the princes were not able to mobilize the army privately. Can the prince have his own team? It's definitely impossible."
"I can't get this, so why does that person say that?"
"Who knows, anyway, the signal has been sent out as he said. We are waiting for the Eighth Prince to confess. As long as we don't see anyone responding, don't expose our existence. We won't be in any danger."
"That's true, but, you say, who can win the contest this time as the throne among the three princes?"
"I hope to be the eighth prince. We are already divided into his name. If he can win the competition and finally become the emperor, we people will also be able to leave a good impression and be closer than others. If you want to get promoted, it will be easier. However, I think the three princes may not win in the end. You must know that the content of the assessment is to win the city, whether it was Wu Yan or other generals. We, but those who have suffered under the rebels and lost the battle, do you think the three inexperienced princes can defeat the rebels? Anyway, I don’t believe it."
"That's also true. Those rebels are already in the air. They are not so easy to defeat. They have to be taken seriously. I don't know what Princess Naqi thinks. It's not that such a big matter is used to evaluate the three princes. It's a joke. Once the three princes are defeated again, there are not many soldiers that can fight in the Dalu dynasty. When the time comes, the rebels will fight back. What can we resist?"
"Although Princess Qi destroyed the Wu family, she is only a woman in the final analysis. A woman, with long hair and short knowledge, would make this decision. It is not surprising. It is just that she is taking the future of the entire Lu dynasty. To bet, it is indeed too much."
"Yeah, hey, I don't know what our Dalu dynasty generals will understand."
The two generals were worried. In fact, this is also a problem that many generals are now worried about.
Princess Qi arranged for the three princes to conduct the assessment. It has basically been spread throughout the entire Dalu dynasty. Many people already know it. Some agree and some oppose it. However, no matter what attitude it is, it is no longer useful. Because the assessment has already begun, the three princes have already left the imperial capital and have begun to lead the army to attack the rebels.
As generals in the army, these people know their own strength and the strength of the rebel army.
Although there are indeed many people who have little combat effectiveness among the rebels, elite troops also exist, especially after experiencing two wars, many people in the rebels are already familiar with the battlefield. He became accustomed to fighting, and his combat effectiveness increased by more than one level. In addition, as Wang Cheng's fame spread, more and more people turned to him, which further improved the strength of his army.
Those who do not have much fighting capacity, although they will not play a big role in fighting hard battles, they can play a big role in fighting downwind, cleaning the battlefield and organizing logistics. This is still a great threat to their imperial army.
Therefore, these generals all know that those rebels have become a climate and must be taken seriously, otherwise, it is very likely that they will be further strengthened, and then no one can stop them.
However, at this time, Princess Qi issued this assessment content, which made many generals dissatisfied. However, the court has already decided and the three princes have accepted it. Therefore, even if they object to it, there is nothing. With it, what they can do is to do their best to hit the rebels hard.
While the two were chatting, a messenger came and handed them a note, one of the generals took it.
"What's on the note?" asked another general.
"This note was sent by Nei Ying. They told us to prepare to enter the city at night tonight. At that time, they will open the city gate." The general who read the note said.
"They are already in the city? Is the news credible? Don't come from a spy, trying to lure us into, and then, give us a turtle in the urn." The general next to him worried.
"I don't know." The general who just read the note said: "If the guard next to the Eighth Prince is to be trusted, then there should be no problem with this note, but can they really open the city gate?"
"Then wait until Ye Lizi, take a look! The eighth prince has also explained anyway, if you are not sure that there is a real response, let us just stand still."
"Okay, let everyone rest first and keep their spirits up."
Afterwards, these rushed troops found a place to camp, recuperate their spirits, and nurture their spirits for the fighting that might occur at night.
However, even at this time, the two generals were not very sure about whether the news was true or not, whether there was an internal response, and even if it did, whether the other party could really open the city gate.
However, no matter what, you still have to wait until the evening to see it.
As for the defenders in the city, I don’t know at this time, they have already mixed in with a lot of people arranged by Huangfeng. After all, the people in the uprising army came from all directions to seek refuge in Wang Cheng. It was very chaotic. It is normal to be unfamiliar with each other and not to know each other, so not many people doubt the people around them.
