Chapter 103 - Be Safe
With unstoppable speed, the First Prince's army quickly took two cities. They were so fast that the Emperor Jeon Gong Yo did not even have time to react.
Jeon Namjoon had been recruiting and preparing for the army for a long time. He had three thousand picked troops as well as two hundred thousand soldiers. Gao Yang's citizens were in a state of panic. When the news reached capital, the officials who had were in the imperial court for a long time were all terrified and shocked. They all suggested that the Emperor Jeon Gong Yo send someone to war with the First Prince.
Emperor Jeon Gong Yo felt under the weather, and now he was angered by the First Prince so much that he laid on the bed, cursing about the "unfilial son".
When he punished Jeon Namjoon, he had cared about the bond between a father and son, so the punishment on Jeon Namjoon was not too much. He expected that this son would thoroughly reform himself when he thought about it in the future. What was unexpected was that he still did not understand this son. Jeon Namjoon's wolf ambitions were already made clear, but he had extravagantly hoped that a wolf could turn break away from evil ways and return to the orthodox path. Now, he was bitten back by his son, causing the entire Da Jing to fall into a state of panic.
He gritted his teeth and called the crown prince over along with General of Agile Cavalry, "Immediately dispatch a hundred thousand soldiers to Gao Yang to capture this traitor, regardless of his life or death!"
Jeon Jimin and Zhong Kai knelt on the ground and solemnly accepted the order: "I will listen to the imperial edict!"
In Gao Yang, on the other hand, Jeon Namjoon did not know what the Emperor Jeon Gong Yo was thinking.
He believed that the throne should have belonged to him, and now he was just taking back what he owned. What was wrong with that? " His army had just taken down Linyi, so the next step was Lan Ling. Sooner or later, he would attack the capital and occupy the palace. He was ambitious, and he and his subordinates deployed a thorough plan to launch an attack on Lanling the next day.
Lan Ling was an important place in the Da Jing. It connected in all directions and was extremely prosperous with hundreds of thousands of troops stationed here. If they could take down this place, it would be equivalent to having succeeded in half. Jeon Namjoon valued this battle greatly, he wanted his men to capture this town within three months. If anyone succeeded, they would be bestowed the title of the Great General of the Kingdom in the future.
When these words were spoken, everyone was encouraged.
However, in Orchid Fragrance City, City Lord Gao Yuan and General Lee Thorn had guarded the city gate with their lives, leading their troops to set up bows and boulders at the city walls, firmly defending Jeon Namjoon's army outside of the city gates. In just 10 short days, Jeon Yun had lost more than a thousand soldiers.
In Orchid Ridge City, the commoners all knew that the First Prince was about to rebel. All of them were terrified and uneasy. Fortunately, Gao Yuan had his men personally go and pacify the civilians, telling them to stay in the city temporarily and not panic. Only then did everyone finally manage to calm down.
By the time the crown prince and the General of Agile Cavalry had led a hundred thousand troops to Orchid Mountain City, Gao Yuan and Richard had already guarded the city with their lives for a month.
Fortunately, he had managed to get them to come.
In addition to the 100,000 soldiers, the Crown Prince had also brought food and supplies, enough for everyone to stay in the city for another month. Gao Yuan and Li Sheng solemnly received them. They analyzed the current situation to the two of them, pointed at the tiger skin map on the table and said, "Jeon Namjoon's army is stationed on a hillside five kilometers away, led by General Dingyuan Xu Jin. He did everything he could to achieve his goal, and previously, in order to break the city wall, he sent one soldier after another to their deaths ..."
