As a transmigrator who had read Douluo Continent, Dai Chengfeng recognized the 'youth' on the white horse, who was not armored, with just a glance.

She was none other than Qian Renxue, the biological daughter of the current Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong of Spirit Hall, the granddaughter of Spirit Hall's High Priest Qian Daoliu, the future Goddess of Angels, and an arrogant, love-struck young lady!

It was at this moment that Dai Chengfeng finally understood.

"I remember that in the World of Douluo Continent, everyone didn't pay much attention to intelligence networks, even the intelligence network of the most powerful Spirit Hall was just average."

"Otherwise, Tang Hao wouldn't have been able to hide so easily in Saint Spirit Village for so many years without being discovered."

"Let alone the Heaven Dou Empire's intelligence network... How could they have managed to surround the city with troops as soon as I entered?"

"Previously, I even thought Zhu Yan betrayed me."

"But now it seems, all of this should have nothing to do with Zhu Yan, but rather with the scouts sent by Spirit Hall, which has some intelligence capabilities."

"It's just... I don't understand!"

"Why isn't Qian Renxue staying in Heaven Dou City, playing her role as the Heaven Dou Empire's Crown Prince 'Xue Qinghe', instead of personally leading troops to attack Wu'an City, a border city of my Star Luo Empire?"

While Dai Chengfeng was deep in thought, Zhu Yan stared at him with a look of utter astonishment, as if seeing him anew.

"The glory of dying on the battlefield, without the humiliation of living a cowardly life..."

"Such heroic Spirit, resounding..."

"Could this truly be spoken by a self-indulgent, good-for-nothing Fourth Prince?"

Zhu Yan had to admit, at this moment, he looked at this Fourth Prince with new respect.

At this point, Dai Chengfeng withdrew his gaze from Qian Renxue and turned to Zhu Yan and Zhu Fan, asking, "Do you know if Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, has already become the Crown Prince?"

Hearing Dai Chengfeng's question, Zhu Yan and Zhu Fan were first stunned, their faces filled with confusion.

They exchanged glances, both not understanding the purpose of their Prince's sudden question, which had nothing to do with the battlefield.

But since Dai Chengfeng asked, they still answered.

After a moment of thought, Zhu Fan replied, "If I'm not mistaken, it should have been three months ago..."

"The Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire suddenly announced Xue Qinghe as the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire."

At this, he paused and looked at Dai Chengfeng, "Your Highness, why are you suddenly asking about this?"

Dai Chengfeng gently shook his head, not answering, "It's nothing."

"I just seem to understand what she's trying to do!"

After speaking, he once again cast his gaze towards the formidable Xue Qinghe, riding a white horse opposite him, his eyes deep.

"But what's the use of just understanding her purpose?"

"How can we break out of this situation?"

At this moment, Dai Chengfeng appeared calm on the surface, but he deeply understood the severity of the situation; every decision now could concern the life and death of tens of thousands of soldiers in Wu'an City.

"Initially, I thought of relying on my uncle, this Spirit Douluo, to break the situation, but since that young lady has appeared, she must be accompanied by a Titled Douluo."

"And since Spirit Hall is involved in all of this..."

"Holding out for reinforcements probably won't work either."

"After all, how could any scout from Wu'an City survive under the watchful eyes of a Titled Douluo-level powerhouse to request aid?"

Dai Chengfeng constantly calculated, various thoughts flashing through his mind, but he still couldn't find a foolproof plan.

Seeing Dai Chengfeng once again lost in thought, and looking at the approaching Heaven Dou Empire soldiers, Zhu Yan stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying, "Your Highness, I'll go patrol the defenses first and see how the soldiers' preparations for defending the city are coming along."

"Hmm, go ahead."

Dai Chengfeng was immersed in thoughts of how to break the situation, answering casually.

It wasn't until Zhu Yan turned and hurried away, disappearing from their sight.

Only then did Zhu Fan look at the pensive Dai Chengfeng with a worried expression, "Dai Chengfeng, are you really going to share life and death with this small Wu'an City?"

"I don't care about myself..."

"But you are the hope for my Star Luo Empire to unify the Douluo Continent in the future, you absolutely cannot be lost!"

Upon hearing this, Dai Chengfeng cast his gaze towards the Heaven Dou army below the city, which had already begun to set up siege ladders and was surging like a tide.

"Uncle, if I were to fall into the midst of the army, could you take me out safely?"

Zhu Fan, hearing this, confidently puffed out his chest, a hint of arrogance on his face.

"Your uncle, I am a Spirit Douluo, and my Spirit is the Hell Civet, known for its swiftness."

"As long as no one of the same level or stronger makes a move, I can't say I'll kill them all... but I can definitely get you out!"

A smile tugged at Dai Chengfeng's lips as he looked at the arrogant young lady, Qian Renxue.

The smile held a hint of determination.

"Uncle, I think I've found a way... to break the situation!"

"Break the situation?"

Zhu Fan was full of doubts; he couldn't imagine how to break such an overwhelmingly disadvantageous situation other than fleeing.

So he looked at Dai Chengfeng, his eyes full of inquiry: "Dai Chengfeng, what method have you thought of?"

Dai Chengfeng's expression was calm, "Uncle, you go find Zhu Yan first and have him select a thousand loyal elite soldiers. Once they are all gathered, come back to me, and then I will explain in detail."

Although Zhu Fan was full of confusion, he still chose to trust Dai Chengfeng.

He nodded heavily, then turned and hurried away.

Zhu Yan was not far from the two of them, so he quickly conveyed Dai Chengfeng's words to Zhu Yan.

Hearing it was the Fourth Prince's command, although Zhu Yan was equally puzzled, he immediately set about selecting elite soldiers.

Not long after, Zhu Yan and Zhu Fan returned.

Behind them were a thousand soldiers who looked exceptionally elite.

These soldiers stood tall, their eyes filled with determination, and they followed Zhu Yan and Zhu Fan in neat steps to the base of the city wall.

"Dai Chengfeng, can you now tell us how to break this destined-to-fail situation?"

Zhu Fan came to Dai Chengfeng's side, asking with great curiosity.

Zhu Yan was equally expectant.

Dai Chengfeng nodded slightly and smiled, "Of course."

"But before that..."

As he spoke, Dai Chengfeng took a few steps forward and looked down at the soldiers from atop the city wall.

The banners on the city wall flapped loudly in the wind, and outside the city, the Heaven Dou Empire's army pressed down like dark clouds, their shouts of battle already clearly audible, the situation critical.

Dai Chengfeng took a deep breath and spoke loudly, "Soldiers!"

"Now the Heaven Dou Empire's army is at our city gates; they intend to flatten Wu'an City, plunder your property, and insult your wives, children, and parents!"

"There is no retreat for us!"

As he spoke, his gaze swept across the face of every soldier, "I, Dai Chengfeng, the Fourth Prince of the Star Luo Empire, ask here!"

"The great tide is about to overwhelm us; are there any who are willing to die, to die with me?"

Holding out for reinforcements wouldn't work, and the disparity in forces was so vast...

If they wanted to break the situation, they could only take an unconventional path!

And in the five-thousand-year-long brilliant history of China, there was also an arrogant 'Great Emperor' who personally led his troops to battle.

The result was that he personally elevated a famous general into the Martial Temple.

Eight hundred Tiger Braves crossed the river, and ten thousand Wu soldiers fled in terror...

The King of Wu of Great Wei, Sun Shiwan!
