In the Council room, there was a lot of depression.

Chen Tai lowered his head, pale and speechless. He didn't know what to say. No explanation could change the fact of the defeat!

Three hundred thousand troops!

For Yue, this is also a huge loss.

It is true that Yue Jun is ready for the war and will continue to invest troops in the future. However, the troops need to be mobilized and the corresponding military response and supplies are needed.

It takes time.

Even so, 300000 troops have been wiped out in the beginning. How can we fight in the future?

How demoralizing!

This battle can no longer be fought!

And Chen Tai as the coach, he will have to bear the main responsibility, which can not escape.

It's inevitable to be beheaded!

Only in this way can we calm the anger of Yue Jun and transfer the anger of the whole country's citizens!

He is not afraid of death!

If he died, he would win a big victory, and Chen Tai would certainly like to.

But now that's the result.

Grandfather lost!

And he lost more thoroughly.

Shame is beyond description!

After giving him 300000 troops, he was defeated in just over three months. He is not a black sheep. What is it?

"You You... "

Xia Yanchun's body is shaking. He knows what it means.

He tried to calm himself down, and then said: "such a big thing, can't hide, must report to the emperor!"

Over the years.

Xia Yanchun seems to have a great growth change, become mature and stable!

Thanks to Wang Kang.

Because of the exposure of that incident, his reputation was greatly damaged and he suffered a lot of criticism. His brothers looked down on him and the people talked about him behind his back!

But it also sharpened his mind and made him learn to endure.

"But my father is already old. What a blow?"

The third prince Xia Yanxin was worried.

Yue Jun has been in power for many years. Nine years ago, he was deeply hit by a big defeat, so he had to change his strategy.

Take nine years to eliminate the impact.

After this battle, he will abdicate.

But now

"You can't hide it. You can't hide it at all. Recently, there have been rumors all over Pengcheng!"

Xia Yanchun said in a deep voice: "we must report it as soon as possible. Please make a decision and continue to dispatch troops to the border!"

"How about dispatching troops?"

Xia Yanxin glared at Chen Tai and said, "this battle can't be fought any more, even if there are enough troops."

"That's for sure."

Xia Yanchun said in a deep voice: "according to the present situation of Zhao state, it is necessary to mobilize at most 300000 people. This has already shaken the foundation of the country. This battle can't be fought any more, but..."

"I'm afraid our attack will stop, but Wang Kang's attack will start!" he said

"No way!"

I heard that.

Chen Tai immediately said, "it will take a long time for Zhao to use his army against Chu. Wang Kang has no more than 100000 troops. He has no power in the future. How dare he fight us? And..."

"Shut up

Xia Yanchun said angrily, "what do you know?"

He has dealt with Wang Kang many times, but he knows him very well.

Wang Kang is different from ordinary people. The more impossible you feel, the more capable he is!

Xia Yanchun has a hunch.

This is based on his understanding of Wang Kang.

"If so, it's dangerous!"

The third prince seemed to listen to Xia Yanchun.

"How many people are there in Pengcheng now?"

"Less than 50000..."

Chen Tai was told that he was like a grandson and did not dare to speak up.

There are only a small number of left behind troops on the border. The rest of them have been fighting with him, and the follow-up troops have not yet been mobilized.

The key is that no one expected him to lose so quickly!

"Waste, what a waste!"

Xia Yanchun can't help but scold: "if Wang Kang's troops really cross the border, how can this force resist? Will it still be like nine years ago?"

"Waste! Rubbish

"No way."

Chen Tai forcibly said: "Wang Kang should not fight. The fourth prince should be calm."

"Newspaper!"

Before he had finished speaking, he heard an urgent report from outside. The door was pushed open, and the man didn't care about etiquette.

Panting, he said hastily, "hulaoguan, hulaoguan..."

Xia Yanchun's heart leaped violently, and his bad premonition was extremely strong. However, he calmed down and asked: "Hu Lao Guan, what's the matter?""Hulao pass is lost!"

"What?"

Chen Tai immediately stood up and could no longer sit.

"What's going on?"

"The army of Zhao state has 100000 people, but the garrison of Hulao pass has only 7000 people, which can't be resisted. Now it's lost, and the garrison general Han Feng died in battle..."

"Now that the army of Zhao has passed the test, they are killing Pengcheng!"

"It's over!"

Chen Tai felt that all his strength had been drained and collapsed on the seat!

Nine years ago.

His grandfather Chen Tang led his troops to attack the state of Zhao, which was destroyed by Wang Kang. At that time, he hit Pengcheng!

Now it seems that history repeats itself perfectly

He will also become a sinner through the ages. The last name of the Chen family has been defeated by him

The news is no doubt astonishing, like a slap in the face.

Attack and defense changed!

The last thing that should have happened, happened.

Xia Yanchun, the fourth prince, is unfortunately very serious.

"What should we do?"

Is there a general who is difficult: "there are less than 50000 troops in Pengcheng. How can we resist Wang Kang's army?"

"There's still a chance."

Xia Yanchun was the first to recover his composure. He said in a deep voice: "our troops are different from Wang Kang, but as the defending party, we can stick to the favorable terrain of the city."

"There are already 100000 people in Kyoto. We can adjust them quickly. We just need to hold on until reinforcements arrive!"

His mind is in order.

If Wang Kang is here, he will be surprised. Is this Xia Yanchun he knows?

"Continue to explore in detail and keep an eye on the movement of Wang Kang's army all the time!"

"Yes

The reporter ran out.

"Chen Tai."

"The fourth prince."

"The key to the settlement of your crime is to guard Pengcheng, because the garrison of Zhao state, northeast and southeast border is transferred to one of the empty places. If Wang Kang's army invades Pengcheng, it will be like entering a no man's land!"

Xia Yanchun said in a low voice, "now I will take over the post of general. Do you have any opinions?"

"I No! "

In this way, Chen Tai was directly deprived of his position.

"Issue a notice to explain the situation to the people of the city. All the troops are transferred into the city to prepare the materials needed for guarding the city..."

"Yes

Xia Yanchun began to make arrangements.

"Fourth prince, I have a request."

Chen Tai said: "don't send me back to Kyoto, let me stay in Pengcheng, even as a pawn!"

"Sure!"

Everyone began to be busy, and Xia Yanchun's eyes were looking at the direction of hulaoguan.

"Wang Kang, we are finally going to start a real duel!"

He whispered
