Chapter 537: Chapter 225: The Traitorous King of Yan! Zhao Feng Hates Traitors Most! Orders Complete Annihilation!
After Yuyang City was breached by the Qin Army.
Time flies!
Two months have passed.
Among the thirty thousand troops of Wu’an Military Camp, five thousand main forces have been removed, and another five thousand Logistics Army have been used to guard the surrendered soldiers; the remaining forces are fully committed to attacking the Yan kingdom.
Now, most of the territory of the Yan kingdom has fallen under Qin’s control.
Ji City is already in sight.
“Senior General.”
“This place is only thirty li away from Ji City.” Zhang Han rode forward and reported loudly.
“Good.”
“Convey my orders, advance swiftly.”
“Today, our army will set up camp at Ji City.”
Zhao Feng immediately shouted.
“I understand.” Zhang Han nodded at once.
Then he shouted loudly: “The Senior General orders to march at full speed, straight to Ji City.”
Counting from the time when Zhao Feng first moved the troops, within a short span of three months, they were under the walls of Ji City.
Even with absolute superiority in troop numbers, it’s hard to achieve this, given that the territory of the Yan is not small and Ji City is located in the eastern frontier.
But under Zhao Feng’s command, he decimated the Yan kingdom’s army, with only a few Prefecture Soldiers left, the rest retreated to Ji City.
Moreover, Wu’an Military Camp’s combat strength far exceeded other camps.
Only then did they achieve such results.
Ji City!
Now it is heavily guarded.
Without capable leadership.
King of Yan can only let his Imperial Guards Leader command the troops, withdraw the Frontier Army, although there are more than twenty thousand soldiers in the city, aside from the seven thousand Frontier Army, the remaining forces are weak.
Morning Discussion Hall!
“Report.”
“Request the attention of the Great King.”
“There is grave concern.”
“Qin Cavalry is advancing swiftly.”
“Qin Army is only twenty li away from our capital.”
A soldier rushed into the hall and reported.
“Too fast.”
“How could they be so fast?” The King of Yan’s brow furrowed, his face full of fear.
Despite planning so much for resistance, under the absolute combat power of Wu’an Military Camp, it is ultimately hard to match.
The Yan kingdom’s army is simply not a match.
“Has Sima Lin not returned yet?”
The King of Yan looked at the court and asked loudly.
“Great King.”
“Sima Lin has not returned yet.”
“Ministers are unaware of his whereabouts.”
A minister stepped forward.
“Is there any movement in the Northern Frontier?” The King of Yan immediately pursued the question.
Upon hearing this question.
Many ministers of the Yan kingdom showed a difficult expression.
At this moment.
“Great King.”
“Frontier Army has been mobilized, Donghu crossed the border.”
“Detailed information is currently unknown due to Qin Army.”
A minister stepped forward and reported loudly.
But upon hearing this, the King of Yan showed a trace of joy on his face: “Donghu crossed the border, this is the one I invited to deal with Qin.”
At this point.
The King of Yan no longer concealed anything.
And his words were like a thunderbolt, shocking the entire court.
“What?”
“Great King, how could you collude with Donghu?”
“The disaster of the Foreign Tribes, it has been a bane through the ages.”
“Foreign Tribes are cruel, regard our people as livestock, they cross the border, my Yan’s Northern Frontier citizens are in danger.”
“Great King, how could you do this?”
A minister jumped out, angrily speaking to the King of Yan.
“Presumptuous.”
“How dare you speak to me in this manner?”
Being reprimanded by this minister, the King of Yan became enraged, pointing angrily at the minister below.
“Colluding with Foreign Tribes, bringing shame to the clan.”
“A cursed name through the ages.”
“Great King, can you bear this burden?”
“Great King, you are betraying the ancestors of our Yan kingdom.”
“You are an unworthy king.”
This minister fearlessly pointed at the King of Yan and cursed.
This time.
He was truly outraged.
“Presumptuous.”
“Guards, drag him down for me.”
“Throw him in jail.” The King of Yan angrily said.
Several Imperial Guards immediately rushed into the hall.
But at this moment!
Many conscientious Yan ministers stood out.
“Great King is unrighteous, colluding with Foreign Tribes, this is a cursed name through the ages, shame to the clan.”
“Being a minister under the Great King is a disgrace.”
“A shame through the ages.”
“How can a Huaxia ruler collude with Foreign Tribes? How can such a betrayal to ancestors be committed?”
“You do not deserve to be king.”
“Foolish ruler.”
“You are unworthy…”
One by one, ministers stood out and cursed at the King of Yan.
Scanning the scene.
At least half of the over a hundred courtiers in the hall stood out and cursed.
Perhaps there are divisions among the Various Countries on the Land of the Divine Continent, but they all belong to the same ethnic group, belong to Huaxia.
However, Foreign Tribes outside the Northern Frontier are not considered part of Huaxia.
If they move south, the border without obstacles, it will be a massacre against their people.
As long as one identifies as part of the Huaxia Ethnic Group, as long as there is a sense of clan righteousness, it cannot be tolerated at this moment.
Seeing this scene.
The King of Yan was also shocked.
He did not expect so many to stand out and curse him.
At this moment.
The King of Yan’s heart felt a pang of regret.
Had he made a mistake?
But the next moment.
The King of Yan snapped back: “I am the King of Yan, the king of Yan’s people, what I do is not for them to comment!”
Thinking of this.
The King of Yan angrily stood up, raising his hand pointing at the ministers standing out to reprimand him in the hall, angrily shouting: “For the survival of Yan, all sacrifices are worth it.”
“The Qi and Chu countries did not come to aid, Qin presses aggressively, inviting Donghu to send troops was just a last resort.”
“All this is forced by Qin.”
“I, as the King of Yan, must protect the survival of Yan.”
Watching the King of Yan remain so stubborn.
The minister who first spoke, the Yan minister, looked desperate, pointing at the King of Yan and shouting: “Foolish ruler, even now, do you not repent?”
“Your acts are even worse than those of King You of Zhou.”
“A cursed name through the ages, you Ji Xi shall bear.”
“We are ashamed to serve under you.”
“Colluding with Foreign Tribes, such a cursed name we do not bear.”
“Foreign Tribes invading, you are the criminal against the Northern Frontier citizens… “
