Chapter 733 - 733 733 The Second Prince is Defeated
733: Chapter 733: The Second Prince is Defeated 733: Chapter 733: The Second Prince is Defeated By now, anyone with clear eyes could see that the second Prince had reached a dead end.
Of course, perhaps he couldn’t see it himself, for his recent behaviors were utterly baffling.
The closer he got to the end, the more actively he participated in various affairs.
However, with the second Prince’s abilities, the more he got involved, the more muddled and erratic his decisions became.
Amidst various poor decisions, the second Prince made even more mistakes when at a disadvantage than the eldest Prince did.
As a result, he accelerated his defeat, and along the way, he threw away his own territories.
As the weather gradually warmed, the eldest Prince’s forces were nearing the Bo Yan’s territories.
At that time, Coruas finally found the time to intervene, as his affairs had temporarily settled.
After Coruas led a force, the second Prince’s military deteriorated even faster.
As for Bo Yan, he no longer had the strength to support the fight, and his territory had become completely chaotic.
With the help of the Temple, those Undead Mages were reportedly wiped out.
However, the surrounding armies that assisted also gained a great deal of benefits.
This added insult to injury for Bo Yan.
After one battle, out of an original population of twenty million in his territory, now half had fled.
Some entered the surrounding territories, while others fled towards the Xuanwu Territory.
Among those who remained, a large part had turned into zombies and were eradicated.
Others died in various battles or by Undead Magic.
When he retook his territory, Bo Yan was shocked to find that less than two million people were left.
Moreover, these people clearly no longer trusted him.
After his army had been through such chaos, not many had returned.
A territory once boasting a large population had completely turned to waste.
If it weren’t for the fact that the surrounding lands were all Empire territories, he probably would have lost his lands by now.
Bo Yan no longer desired to advance further; he just wanted to preserve his own territory.
Thus, Bo Yan directly ordered a surrender, which infuriated the second Prince.
But also because of this reason, the second Prince’s personal troops, who could have held on for a few more days, completely collapsed.
It was at this time that the King finally stepped forward.
The central army started to move under the flag of mediation.
“What, you want me to stop at this moment?
That’s impossible,” Prince Sikell, seeing this order, immediately darkened in expression.
To confront such great risks on the battlefield, why should he stop now?
“But, this is the King’s command,” Coruas said, unconcerned.
“Are you sure that’s really my father?” Sikell’s expression shifted uncertainly.
Coruas pondered for a moment, “It should be true.
According to our people, the King does not seem to have recently recovered from a serious illness.”
“What do you mean?” Even Sikell felt that something was off at this point.
“It means that the King might have been pretending to be ill a while ago when he released that news.
Perhaps he purposely incited the second Prince to rebel, as the message we suddenly got about it was also very strange.”
Yes, the news of the second Prince’s preparation for rebellion they had suddenly received before was indeed odd.
Upon close investigation, it seemed that the news had come from the Royal Capital.
Could it really be that the King had foreseen this matter, thus deciding to counter the plans against him?
Then what was he, Sikell, considered as?
It somewhat infuriated Sikell.
“So let us stop, if we continue, I’m afraid we will anger His Majesty the King.”
Sikell suddenly waved his hand, “No, we cannot stop, we have reached this point, and there is no turning back.
Besides, if we leave the second Prince behind, he might find a chance to trouble us again in the future.”
Coruas did believe that, after all, both Princes had the same temperament.
Having already severed ties, the second Prince also wouldn’t give up, because giving up would mean surrendering his own life.
Now, even the King could not stop them anymore, one of them had to die.
As for the second Prince causing them trouble, Coruas was not worried about that.
In fact, even if the second Prince were to survive, his influence was already gone; it was impossible for him to cause any significant trouble.
Moreover, considering that guy’s intellect, who knew what the outcome of his actions would be.
However, looking at the elder Prince, Coruas sighed inwardly, if these two were to cause trouble for each other, they might genuinely end up fighting.
And in their own hearts, it would truly be a thrilling experience.
After all, these two were merely like quarrelsome chickens.
“Since you have already decided, then let’s continue, we’re only a step away anyway.”
The King’s army was very far from here and did not advance quickly; they were not here for battle.
Within a short period, it was simply impossible for them to arrive, while their battle was already at hand.
In Bo Yan’s territory, there were no large cities, the entire territory was flat and open, with no strategic defensive locations.
At this moment, the second Prince was already besieged within the last great city, without any chance to escape.
As the elder Prince ordered the city to be attacked, the surrounding army, already prepared, began their assault.
The elder Prince had the help of Coruas, while the second Prince lacked any competent generals to assist him.
At the very start of the siege, the second Prince’s forces were completely suppressed.
Outside, there were Mages casting spells one after another, creating enormous pressure on them.
Ironically, the second Prince had been continually failing recently, and the Mages earlier attached to him had already deserted him, leaving behind only a few who were hardly effective.
Usually, Mages did not have affiliations and cooperated with the nobles just on mutual interests.
Only the direct followers of the second Prince, unable to leave, had no choice but to follow him to the bitter end.
The news had reached the King, whose face then took on a strange expression.
“What is Sikell trying to do, not even listening to my orders?”
Although these two sons always had issues with their decisions, they would still obey his explicit commands.
As for what they did behind his back, that wasn’t official.
However, unexpectedly, he now couldn’t command this man; what did this boy intend to do?
The King, having a normal person’s mind, absolutely couldn’t understand the thoughts of someone nearly insane.
After all, he was still the King, and no matter how you looked at it, defying his orders at this time was just not right.
Besides, if Sikell didn’t understand, did Coruas also not comprehend what that guy wanted to do?
With their current capabilities, to rebel was simply a death wish.
