The Invincible Sixth Prince

When Jia Yao led his troops to Heji, the battle of Heji was already coming to an end.

As Jia Yao led his personal guards into the final battle, the war in Heji City gradually subsided.

"Count the casualties immediately!"

"Anyone who dares to cause trouble in the city will be killed without mercy!"

"Immediately send out spies to investigate the movements of enemy reinforcements in the direction of Hukou and Da'an Road!"

"Send someone to Shanghe City via a detour and order the Shanghe defenders to keep an eye on the enemy's movements in the Hukou direction. Once the enemy troops in Hukou pass Pingji and rush towards Heji, immediately seize Pingji..."

Ga Yao quickly issued the order.

At present, their casualties have not been counted.

However, the enemy forces in Heji, led by the defenders of Heji City, put up an extremely tenacious resistance, which was even stronger than the resistance put up by the defenders of Longqing Prefecture.

Jia Yao estimated that the casualties in this battle would not be too small.

However, what Jia Yao is most concerned about now is not the casualties, but the location of the enemy navy that is reinforcing from Da'an Road.

Looking at the map, there are no big cities between Heji and Linhai City on Da'an Road, only small towns.

As long as the reinforcements from there passed Linhai, they only needed to rest for one night and then they could quickly send out troops to attack the reinforcements from there and wipe out the 4,000 reinforcements in one fell swoop.

If the enemy from the tiger's mouth attacks, turn around and annihilate the enemy in the direction of the tiger's mouth!

If the enemy forces in the direction of Hukou could be annihilated, the entire Le Dynasty would have almost no decent troops left.

By then, even if the Le Dynasty recruited more young and strong men, they would all be without armor, and would have little ability to resist their elite army.

If Yun Zheng could defeat some of the enemy's main forces, or use a strategy to capture Luyi Prefecture, the Li Dynasty should consider surrendering.

"Princess, let's eat something first!"

At this time, Qiqige brought some food.

"Ah."

Jiayao came out of his own thoughts and asked Qiqige, "Is there enough food and grass in the city?"

"enough."

Qi Qige replied: "With nearly 10,000 of us, we can eat here for three months without any problem."

Heji itself is a big city.

Moreover, Heji is located in the lower reaches of a tributary of the Miljiang River, where there are many fertile fields and abundant water resources, making it one of the major production areas of the Le Dynasty.

There is still a lot of grain in Heji’s official granary, enough for them to consume.

"That's good!"

Jia Yao was relieved and instructed Qi Qi Ge, "Pass the order down, make sure to feed the war horses well. If there is not enough grass, feed them with concentrated feed directly! Don't be stingy with food at this time!"

They attacked continuously and their horses were exhausted a lot.

If they don't feed these war horses well, they may not be able to run long distances when they want to go on such missions later.

"Yes!"

Qi Qi Ge obeyed the order.

"Oh, right, recruit all the doctors in the city into the army, and it would be best if their families were taken along! Tell those doctors to treat our wounded well, and anyone who wants to mess around should think about the lives of their entire family first!"

Ga Yao ordered again.

"Yes!"

Qi Qige immediately passed on Jia Yao's order.

While eating the food which was not delicious at all, Jia Yao was thinking about his next plan.

What she is most worried about now is that the news that Shangqingdao has fallen into their hands will get to her mouth.

In this case, the enemy troops in the tiger's mouth direction will most likely not come out.

But when they attacked Heji, a small number of civilians and soldiers took advantage of the chaos to escape.

Because he was worried about being attacked by enemy reinforcements from the direction of Da'an Dao, he did not send anyone to block that direction. The news of the fall of Heji should have quickly spread to Hukou City and even the capital of the Le Dynasty.

Now, it depends on how fast the enemy forces in the tiger's mouth move.

At this time, Shen Kuan came to report again: "Madam Jiayao, the statistics of our army's casualties have been compiled..."

In this battle, more than 300 of them were killed and over 600 were seriously injured.

Many casualties were caused by stones thrown from the city walls by the enemy.

Listening to Shen Kuan's words, Jia Yao couldn't help but frown.

This is even more fatal than when they captured Longqing Prefecture!

Jia Yao's eyes flashed coldly, and he said sternly: "Go! Bring the guard of Heji City to me!"

"Yes!"

Shen Kuan immediately accepted the order.

Soon, Shen Kuan brought over the Heji city defender who was tied up.

At this moment, the defender of Heji City was in a very miserable state. His clothes were tattered and his hair was wet and messy, like a chicken coop.

Jia Yao was looking at the defender of Heji City, and the other party was also looking at him.

Jia Yao retracted his gaze and smiled, "You are really amazing. We tricked the city gate open, but you still caused us so many casualties!"

The defender of Heji City glared at Jiayao and growled with resentment: "If we hadn't fallen into your trap, would you have thought you could break through our city?"

"On the battlefield, it's all about intrigue and deception!"

Jia Yao didn't care, "Only a fool would foolishly attack when he has no advantage!"

The Heji City Guard was speechless and kept silent for a while before asking again, "Are you the Madam Jiayao they are talking about?"

"Correct!"

Jia Yao nodded slightly.

The governor of Heji City showed a contemptuous smile, "I heard your name when I went to Zhenhe before. You seem to be the princess of Beihuan, right?"

"Ah."

Jia Yao nodded again and said, "You are quite good for causing us so many casualties! I called you here to ask you one question, do you want to surrender or not?"

"I would rather die than surrender!"

The Heji City Guard snorted coldly: "Do you think I am as spineless as you? After being defeated by Daqian, I will become Daqian's running dog?"

"presumptuous!"

Shen Kuan shouted angrily and punched He Ji on the mouth.

"Cough cough..."

The defender of Heji City had several teeth knocked out and was spitting out blood, but there was still a mocking smile on his face.

Shen Kuan was furious and wanted to attack again, but was stopped by Jia Yao.

Jia Yao was not angry at what the Heji City Guard said, but just said calmly: "As the saying goes, a man who knows the current situation is a hero! You don't have any chance anymore. So many of you have surrendered. I advise you to surrender quickly. You can still have a good future in the future!"

"Pooh!"

The defender of Heji City opened his bloody mouth and spat a mouthful of bloody saliva at Jia Yao, but Jia Yao dodged it.

Shen Kuan was furious and kicked the Heji city defender hard in the stomach.

Jia Yao raised her hand again to stop Shen Kuan, and then persuaded him to surrender: "Don't you think about yourself, don't you think about your family?"

"It's just a death!"

The guard of Heji City had a fierce look on his face. "We would rather die than become slaves of a conquered nation! We will never be like you and become Daqian's running dogs!"

"He's a man!"

Jia Yao took a deep breath and waved to Shen Kuan, "Leave him an intact body!"

Shen Kuan had wanted to kill this bastard for a long time.

After receiving Jia Yao's order, Shen Kuan did not hesitate any more. He stepped forward and kicked him hard in the heart twice before dragging him out.

He had made up his mind not to let this bastard die too easily.

Looking at the Heji City Guard being dragged away by Shen Kuan, Jia Yao couldn't help but sigh softly...
