Chapter 378: Prince Huaian Returns to Beijing
Under the persuasion of the two commanders of the White Camp and the Blue Camp, King Huai'an slowly came back to his senses.
He regained his spirits and began to meditate with his eyes closed.
After pondering for a moment, King Huai'an opened his eyes again.
Then, as if he had made some important decision, he stood up.
After Prince Huai'an stood up straight, he turned around and spoke to the two commanders of the White Camp and the Blue Camp.
"You two, go gather the remaining soldiers now."
"There's no point in defending here any longer. Besides, we can't withstand the attack of the Northern Army."
As King Huai'an said this, he turned and looked in the direction of the capital of the Xia Kingdom.
"We will return to the city tonight. It's time to remove some unnecessary resistance for the Emperor!"
Hearing these words, the two commanders of the White Camp and the Blue Camp all had a flash of surprise in their eyes.
They knew that Prince Huai'an was probably going to do something big.
Thinking of this, the two couldn't help but become curious.
They were really curious, considering King Huai'an's usually law-abiding character.
What kind of earth-shattering thing will happen this time...
As night fell, Prince Huai'an was left with a remnant army of less than 8,000 men.
The Huai'an King's army, which had fled back in a panic, soon attracted the attention of officials in the capital.
These people originally thought that there were 50,000 elite Northern Army troops from five battalions.
Coupled with the resourcefulness of King Huai'an, they were able to resist Jiang Chen's 400,000 northern troops.
But they never thought about the 400,000 troops under Jiang Chen's command.
Each of them is as good as the five battalions of soldiers of the Northern Army that they have trained with great effort.
Even after being equipped with weapons and armor forged using new forging methods.
The strength of the Northern Army under Jiang Chen's command has already surpassed the Five Battalions of the Northern Army.
What's more, he had experienced the fight against the Qi-Ming coalition and the later destruction of Xu and Song.
After defeating the Bei Ming Dynasty, Jiang Chen had already mastered the wisdom of his ancestors from the previous five thousand years.
He put his knowledge into practice and successfully established his myth of being invincible in the North!
The first thing King Huai'an did when he returned to the capital.
He led 8,000 soldiers from the five battalions of the Northern Army and rushed straight into the imperial city.
Ignoring the obstruction of the imperial guards guarding the imperial city, Prince Huai'an led 8,000 men and rushed straight into the palace.
He broke through the obstruction of the Imperial Guards in the harem and arrived in front of Yu Anmin's bedroom.
King Huai'an ordered the soldiers from the five battalions of the Northern Army to guard outside the gate.
He pushed open the door of the bedroom and walked in.
He came to Yu Anmin's dragon bed and looked at Yu Anmin who was still in a coma.
Prince Huai'an couldn't help but ask softly to the imperial physician beside him.
"Tell me quickly, how has the emperor been doing these past two days?"
Faced with the King of Huai'an's questioning, the imperial physician did not dare to hide anything.
After being criticized by King Huai'an last time, this doctor learned a lot.
"Replying to Your Majesty, please rest assured."
"The emperor's body condition has stabilized now. He will only need one more day at most."
"The Emperor will be able to wake up safely and successfully!"
After hearing what the imperial physician said, Prince Huai'an finally felt relieved.
After calming down, Prince Huai'an said to the imperial physician.
"You have done very well. This king will have someone reward you handsomely."
"You go down first. I will be here personally tonight."
Faced with the order from Prince Huai'an, the imperial physician did not dare to hesitate for the slightest.
He had no choice but to bow slowly and then give some instructions to King Huai'an.
He turned and walked aside, carrying his medicine box.
He strode out of the bedroom with impatient steps.
However, as soon as he left the bedroom, the imperial physician was frightened by the scene before him.
I saw it outside the bedroom.
Eight thousand soldiers from the five battalions of the Northern Army were standing opposite thousands of Imperial Guards.
Watching this scene, feeling the faint bloodthirsty smell coming from both sides.
For a moment, the imperial physician's heart almost stopped beating.
The soldiers of the Five Battalions of the Northern Army and the Imperial Guards saw the imperial physician coming out.
They all put away the bloodthirsty aura in their bodies, lowered their heads slightly, and watched the imperial physician pass by them.
After swallowing his saliva, the imperial physician ran past the two groups of people as quickly as if he was escaping for his life.
After his figure disappeared on the path outside the bedroom, the soldiers of the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army confronted the Imperial Guards again.
In the bedroom , Prince Huai'an looked at Yu Anmin lying on the dragon couch.
As he watched, King Huai'an gritted his teeth and bowed to Yu Anmin.
" Your Majesty , I was also forced to do this. I will never do this again."
"I'm afraid that the country of Daxia will be destroyed by you and me!"
After saying this, Prince Huai'an turned around and started writing on the desk beside him.
He took up Yu Anmin's private seal and the dragon seal that had been passed down from generation to generation by the emperors of the Xia Kingdom.
After carefully
With these two things, King Huai'an can mobilize the city guards of the capital at will.
Even the imperial guards guarding the imperial city and the royal guards in the harem will be at his disposal!
Carrying two seals, Prince Huai'an walked out of the bedroom and came in front of the royal guards.
Then, King Huai'an took out two seals and held them high above his head.
He shouted loudly to the royal guards.
"Listen carefully, the emperor has issued an order!"
When they heard that it was Yu Anmin's order, all the imperial guards knelt down.
The soldiers of the five battalions of the Northern Army also knelt down under the leadership of their respective commanders.
"I finally woke up from my coma today, but my body is still in trouble, so I will transfer all military power in the capital to my brother!"
"I hope you can assist my brother wholeheartedly and protect our Great Xia Empire !"
After King Huai'an finished speaking loudly, all the soldiers began to have questions in their minds.
Could it be that Yu Anmin, the Emperor of Xia, has really woken up?
But at this moment, after seeing the two seals in the hands of King Huai'an.
The doubts in their minds suddenly disappeared.
Seeing the imperial guards kneeling on the ground, Prince Huai'an felt heartbroken.
Originally, he was worried that these royal guards would not recognize the two seals in his hands.
But now it seems that he made the right bet, as long as he has these two seals.
All the troops in the capital of Xia Kingdom will obey his orders.
As a result, King Huai'an gained more confidence in his ability to defend the capital.
At the same time, outside the capital of Xia State.
Jiang Chen led a large army from the northern border to flatten the fortifications left by King Huai'an.
In the face of absolute strength, any obstacles are just paper tigers with no substance.
Looking at the capital of Xia Kingdom so close, Jiang Chen's mouth curled up slightly.
"Long time no see, capital city, I, Jiang Chen, am back!"
