The Crown Prince's long-prepared plans made it very difficult for them to break all his arrangements in a short time.
"Mother, there's no need to worry. With Brother Qiao here, as long as we hold the Capital City and wait for the reinforcements Su Yu dispatched to arrive in time, the Crown Prince will be powerless to turn the tide," Han Jing assessed. The most it should take is two or three days, but the difficulty lies within these two or three days — how to stop an army of fifty thousand from being overwhelmed by the enemy's two hundred thousand.
Moreover, the Imperial Guard in the capital has been indulging in comfort for too long, how can they compare to those soldiers who often bathe in blood at the border? I'm afraid they won't even be able to hold out for a day.
Once the city falls, who knows how many innocents will be implicated, and the whole Capital City would become a river of blood.
