Volume 1 Chapter 170 The King's Teacher

Jiang Fei was unhappy with his character, so he slapped him and yelled, "I am the Grand Marshal of the Great Sun Dynasty's expedition to the south. My brother's words are my orders. Now you can leave!"

Although Jiang Fei was very unhappy that his elder brother let him go, he did not refute it. However, it did not stop him from satisfying his desire to have sex with Guo Ziyi.

He felt really good about that slap just now!

Guo Ziyi quickly covered his red cheeks from being slapped and got up from the ground. He walked out tentatively, stopping and starting, fearing that Jiang Yue and the others would go back on their word.

Jiang Yue said loudly: "Just go with peace of mind, no one will make things difficult for you!"

"But after you return to Jitian City, we will begin to attack the city. This time, we will defeat you wholeheartedly!"

Guo Ziyi walked faster and faster, and when he found that no one was stopping him, he ran even more frantically, running quickly towards Jitian City!

At the same time, he secretly cursed these people in his heart for being crazy. They knew that he was the commander-in-chief of the army, but they still dared to let him go back and even dared to talk about attacking the city. They were really a bunch of fools.

As long as he returns to Jitian City and controls an army of nearly one million, the entire Jitian City will become an iron wall. If he does not have a military force that is five times that of Jitian City, don't even think about taking it down!

Zhu Qiyu did not speak until Guo Ziyi completely entered Jitian City, but his brows were furrowed, and it was obvious that he did not understand.

Jiang Fei patted his shoulder and said, "It doesn't matter, just fight again. If we can capture that guy once, we can capture him a second time!"

Zhu Qiyu said indignantly: "You two are playing with the lives of all the soldiers in the army!"

"Attacking the city is easy to say, but if you let go of the commander, how many brothers will die for this? Do you know?"

Jiang Yue looked at Zhu Qiyu, who was unhappy, and his expression softened a little. He said coaxingly: "Prime Minister, don't worry, listen to my explanation!"

Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly when he heard this, obviously very unhappy.

"After the battle just now, I have calculated the number of our casualties. If we continue to fight the Black Witch Nation's army head-on, 300,000 troops will not be able to reach the southern border of the Great Sun Dynasty!"

"Even when they reach Linyong City, I'm afraid there will be less than 100,000 soldiers left out of the 300,000-man army!"

Jiang Yue said solemnly: "In this case, no matter how big a victory we have won before, we have lost in the fight against the Black Witch Nation!"

"So I will not only let him go this time, but I will also let him go the next time I capture this marshal!"

"I will keep fighting and releasing them until they are convinced by the Great Sun Dynasty's army. I will make sure that the Black Witch Kingdom's army will never dare to set foot in the Great Sun Dynasty again. I will also make sure that the Black Witch Kingdom will never dare to be our enemy again!"

"Only in this way can we have a chance of winning this war!"

After hearing this, Zhu Qiyu seemed to understand something. He looked at Jiang Yue and Jiang Fei in shock. After a long while, he said in a deep voice, "Do you know how difficult it is to achieve this?"

Jiang Yue's expression softened a bit, and he said with a smile, "Nothing can destroy people's hearts more than a marshal. Prime Minister, don't worry about this matter. For the two of us brothers, capturing a marshal alive is much easier than fighting against a million-strong army."

Not long after, Jiang Yue, Jiang Fei and Zhu Qiyu rode their horses to the front of the army, all looking coldly at the closed gates of Jitian City in front of them.

Jiang Fei gave the order: "Sound the war drums!"

"Boom, boom, boom!" The war drums for the siege were sounded, and immediately the soldiers of the Black Witch Kingdom on Jitian City were on full alert. The number of archers on the city wall increased three times at this moment.

As long as the army of the Great Sun Dynasty dared to start attacking the city, the bows and arrows in their hands would give the soldiers of the Great Sun Dynasty a fatal blow.

Guo Ziyi, who had just returned to Jitian City, had not yet had time to organize his troops when the war drums had already sounded, and he was forced to rush to the city wall.

Ever since he entered Jitian City, he could feel the resentful looks from all the soldiers in the army, which made his face flush red, and he was angry but did not dare to express it.

After all, it was his own shame, and had nothing to do with these soldiers.

On the contrary, the high-ranking generals who led the troops were all experienced veterans. They looked at Guo Ziyi with an uncertain expression, as if he had never been captured.

Many people came forward to show concern for his safety, offered words of comfort, and cursed the Great Sun Dynasty a few more times, as if they were venting their anger on Guo Ziyi's behalf.

There is no way. The army is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and social customs. As long as Guo Ziyi is alive, he will still be the commander-in-chief of the army and have the power of life and death over all the soldiers. No one dares to offend him.

On the wall of Jitian City, Guo Ziyi and a group of soldiers looked down at the army of the Great Sun Dynasty not far from the city, and his face became extremely ugly.

He kept calculating and planning in his mind. Under such circumstances, how could the Great Sun Dynasty capture Jitian City?

After thinking for a long time, Guo Ziyi realized that the Great Sun Dynasty had no chance of winning at all. He couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and secretly cursed himself for being cowardly and being frightened by the general of the Great Sun Dynasty.

Le Dian, a key general standing by, also said with a smile: "Don't worry, Marshal. I have observed the baggage of the Great Sun Dynasty army from afar. They only brought three siege ladders and one ramming car. With such limited siege equipment, they can't capture any city in the Black Witch Kingdom, let alone our iron-clad Jitian City!"

"What's more, there is a moat outside Jitian City. They don't even have a bridge to cross the river. Let alone attacking the city, they can't even cross the moat!"

Another general also said: "General Le Dian is right. Without a trench bridge to cross the river, no matter how powerful and fierce the army of the Great Sun Dynasty is, they can't cause any harm to us!"

"All they can do is shout outside the city and then be shot by us one by one, hahahaha!"

These words sounded pleasant to the ears, and a faint smile appeared on Guo Ziyi's face involuntarily. It seemed that Jitian City could be safe.

The siege drums beat so loudly that it seemed as if a shocking battle was about to begin.

Jiang Yue raised his spear, pointed it at Guo Ziyi on the city wall, smiled slightly, and then said loudly: "Begin the siege!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yue and Jiang Fei immediately rode out on their horses and headed straight for the suspension bridge on the city wall that was suspended by two thick ropes!

Guo Ziyi on the city wall seemed to have thought of something. A look of horror appeared on his face. He cursed inwardly: "Impossible! How could an ordinary person do such a thing!"

But Guo Ziyi was still worried and immediately ordered, "Archers, shoot these two to death for me, Marshal!"

"Swish, swish, swish!" Hundreds of sharp arrows shot towards the two brothers, but the brothers Jiang Yue and Jiang Fei lightly waved the spears in their hands, and suddenly a large amount of internal energy flew out, which shook away all the arrows shot at them.

The next moment, two men, one on the left and one on the right, jumped into the air from their war horses, and actually jumped ten meters high, heading straight for the suspension bridge suspended by two thick ropes on the wall of Jitian City!

Each of them fired a gun, and the two ropes broke. The huge suspension bridge lost its pulling force and fell heavily to the ground. At the same time, the two brothers landed on the ground at the same time, rode their horses, and walked back quickly.

This scene stunned all the generals and soldiers on the city wall. Guo Ziyi's face turned purple. What he had anticipated really happened!

A great sense of crisis surged into Guo Ziyi's heart. Now that the moat has become a decoration, how will the army of the Great Sun Dynasty attack Jitian City next?

At the moment when they came down from the suspension bridge, Zhu Qiyu, who was in front of the nearly 300,000 troops, immediately shouted loudly: "Besiege troops, get ready, get on the battering ram, and kill!"

Suddenly the army parted, revealing a chariot with a battering ram on top and iron leaves wrapped around the front end. It could be pushed forward by the power of the soldiers. As long as it reached the city gate, it would be hit with the battering ram, and no city gate would be able to block it.

This battering ram was the main weapon used in this era to destroy city walls or gates. It relied on the force of the collision to destroy the city's defenses, and it was always effective.

The siege soldiers who were responsible for escorting the ramming cart were all wearing heavy iron armor and holding a huge square shield in their hands, which was specially used to resist arrows during the siege.

The siege troops moved very quickly. After a short while, they transported the battering ram onto the suspension bridge and began to cross the moat. The brothers Jiang Yue and Jiang Fei stood on both sides of the troops to protect them.

At this moment, the siege troops entered the shooting range of the Black Witch Nation soldiers, and suddenly dense arrows shot over. Jiang Yue quickly ordered: "Raise your shields!"

All of a sudden, these soldiers raised their shields together, forming a huge iron shield. Dense arrows shot at it, but all were blocked. However, due to the large number of arrows, the soldiers holding the shields had some difficulty.

However, for them who have become strong due to daily training, they can still hold on!

Seeing that he was unable to do anything about the siege troops of the Great Sun Dynasty, Guo Ziyi on the city wall was almost furious. Could it be that he really had to watch the gate of Jitian City being broken down?

As the siege troops approached, crossed the drawbridge, and began to approach the city gate under the city wall, Guo Ziyi could no longer sit still. He pointed at the siege troops below and shouted, "Hit them with rolling stones and logs. Smash them to death!"

Suddenly, more than a dozen soldiers rushed over, lifted a huge stone weighing nearly a thousand pounds and pressed it against the city wall, then smashed it down at the siege troops below the city.

Looking at the huge rolling stone, Guo Ziyi felt relieved and shouted coldly: "Humph, a thousand-pound boulder will smash your shields into pulp no matter how powerful they are. Even your ramming cars will be smashed to pieces!"

"You still want to break through the gate of Jitian City? It's just wishful thinking!"

But what happened the next moment almost scared Guo Ziyi to death!

Jiang Fei was seen staring at the boulder that was rolling down. Suddenly he let out a long sigh, and the armor on his body was blown up by the Taixu Qi emanating from his body.

The next moment, he inserted the spear into the ground beside him, then he flew into the air, raised his fists and smashed them hard on the boulder!

"Taixu Qi, collapse!"
