"What! The people of Daliang are so bold! With Beiliang backing us up, they actually dare to attack our Chu State! They are rebelling!"
The King of Chu was shocked when he heard this and stood up angrily.
"Zhu Feng! Look at you, you still have no composure at all! What can Daliang do if he attacks our Chu? He can't even set foot on our Chu territory!"
An official looked at Zhu Feng with disdain.
"You are all wrong! The Crown Prince of Daliang attacked the Chu army camp at night and annihilated General Wu's 100,000-man army. He must have invaded our Chu State now. Your Majesty, please go to Beiliang to request reinforcements!"
Zhu Feng said anxiously.
"What! This is absolutely impossible! That's a 100,000-man army. Daliang's garrison at Jingmen Pass is only 30,000. How could they possibly annihilate the 100,000-man army of our Great Chu?"
The King of Chu's expression changed drastically.
"Your Majesty! It's absolutely true! I was there at the time. The soldiers of Daliang had a special weapon that could explode with astonishing power!"
Zhu Feng said again.
Then, he recounted in detail what happened to him in Daliang. Due to excessive blood loss, he eventually lay on the ground and fainted.
Everyone present had a solemn expression. They thought that with Beiliang's support, Daliang would not dare to attack Chu. Who would have thought that Daliang actually did so!
"Quick! Send a message to Pegasus City immediately, telling the defenders to attack immediately and encircle and annihilate the Daliang enemy!"
"Come! Quickly go to Beiliang and inform the Northern Liang general Yuwen Tuo to send troops to aid our Chu!"
The Emperor of Chu issued a series of decrees.
"Haha! Don't spread this decree. Pegasus City has been captured by this prince. Only 3,000 prisoners remain of the 70,000 defenders. Your Chu State has no soldiers left!"
Qin Yu's voice came.
He strode in, and when he looked at Emperor Chu, his eyes were full of perseverance.
Not only was the Chu Imperial City not as prosperous as Pegasus City, the total number of soldiers in the city was less than three thousand, and most of them were old, weak and disabled soldiers. Facing the Red Flame Iron Cavalry, they had no power to resist.
This illustrates a problem: the Chu royal family had long lost control of the Chu State, and the real rulers of the Chu State were actually the aristocratic families of Pegasus City.
Yuwen Chengqing naturally also noticed this, and looked at Qin Yu with even more shock. Could it be that Qin Yu had the ability to predict the future?
"You! Who are you? Pegasus City is a vital city of our Chu State. How could it be taken down? Even with an army of 300,000!"
The King of Chu's expression changed drastically.
"I am the Crown Prince of Daliang. I hereby declare that the Chu State has been destroyed. Those who kneel down will be spared, but those who are stubborn will have their entire clan exterminated!"
Qin Yu said coldly.
Gum!
The officials who had just been drinking and eating meat all spitted heavily. Those who were quick to react immediately stood up and knelt, saying, "Your Highness! The Chu State is gone, and we will be subjects of Daliang from now on!"
"Yes! We will be ministers of Daliang from now on!"
The others reacted and knelt down as well.
Although these people are officials of the State of Chu, they are well aware of the current situation of the State of Chu. The royal family does not have much power, so how much can they have? They also have to please both the emperor and the aristocratic families. They are already tired!
It doesn't matter to them who they are ministers to!
"What about you?"
Qin Yu looked coldly at the King of Chu who was sitting high up.
Emperor Chu's face turned pale. Suddenly, he saw Chu Yu standing next to Qin Yu and said in a deep voice, "Yu'er! Why are you with him?"
