"Our people have stood here for a thousand years; we cannot kill them all!!"

Even if we fight to the last man, we will never give up this beautiful land to you!

A furious roar came from afar: "Song Ke! Stop dreaming!"

"Today's all-out effort is not the same as the all-out effort of the past!"

"Your nation's fate is sealed!"

"Now, it is time for the rise of Japan!"

Song Ke laughed heartily, tears welling in his eyes.

"You little Japan! How dare you bark here!"

Even if you turn the world upside down, you're still nothing more than ants!

"Our reinforcements are on their way!"

"Once you witness the might of the dragon, you will all be reduced to ashes!!!"

Upon hearing this, Ono Jiro frowned and said to Qian Shouyi:

"Reinforcements? The Emperor of Da Gan has already dispatched troops?"

Qian Shouyi shook his head and snorted coldly:

"General, don't listen to his nonsense."

"Jin Fengluan and the Prince of Zhenbei are locked in a fierce battle; they have neither the time nor the manpower to come to her aid!"

"This Song Ke is just spreading lies to scare us because he knows Linbin City can't be defended!"

Jiro Ono's brow remained furrowed: "It's hard to say; they might be reinforcements sent from another city."

Qian Shouyi said, "That won't help either."

"In this situation, no one can make a difference."

We are invincible!

After saying this, he laughed loudly towards the city wall:

"Song Ke, why don't you perform a ritual to pray for blessings and borrow some heavenly soldiers and generals?"

Upon hearing this, Ono Jiro, who was standing nearby, was amused and patted Qian Shouyi on the shoulder, saying:

"Qian Shouyi, you really know how to talk!"

Seeing that Ono Jiro's expression had softened, Qian Shouyi immediately put on a smiling face and said, "I'm not just talking nonsense, but even if there were heavenly soldiers and generals, they wouldn't be a match for us!"

"The warriors under your command, who can withstand that strike!"

Jiro Ono nodded and continued:

"Excellent! Well said."

Then, he changed the subject, saying, "However, our warriors are not suitable for sieges. Qian Shouyi, you will be the vanguard for the next siege!"

Qian Shouyi's smile froze, and he stood there stiffly.

——

"Hmm? My lord..."

"He is already His Majesty."

"Oh right, right, look at my brain... Thanks for reminding me, Wenyuan."

"Your Majesty, you mean you've changed the name of the Great Gan Kingdom to Great Yan, and you're going to set fire to Fusang first? Well then, Your Majesty, with so few of us heading to the East Sea, you must have already figured out how to deal with those short, stout guys, right?"

"Yes, so we need to hurry!"

"Then we'll annihilate the Japanese who came to the East China Sea with lightning speed, and while we're at it, we'll also make a trip to Japan!"

"I will send an army specifically designed to subdue the Japanese to fight them! I will make sure all these Japanese become victims of my blade!"

"An army specifically designed to defeat the Japanese?"

"Yes! They're experts at dealing with the Japanese!"

"That is..."

"Giddy up! Let's get there first!"

The warhorses neighed, dust billowed from the road, and galloped eastward.
