Chapter 89: War
Liu Yi agreed with Liu Xubai and nodded.
"It's not impossible. The people of Apocalypse have always been cunning."
"Once this war is over, you will personally instruct all shops not to purchase more supplies than the daily quota. Otherwise, you will be reported to the authorities."
Only by limiting the amount of things they buy can these ridiculous rumors be stopped.
Liu Xubai took over the task, got up and left the house.
Go to the Su family military camp and prepare for a battle.
After he left, the staff in the front office were still laughing at the rumor:
"I think these people are crazy!"
"A heavy rain made them suspicious and they even mortgaged their property deeds to exchange for supplies."
"Don't come back and blame the court when the high temperature doesn't come."
“…”
——
At the beginning of the Si hour
It was a hot day, but suddenly there was lightning.
Thick clouds came over the sky, accompanied by strong winds and thunder.
The civilians digging the tunnel put down their tools and looked at the sky in bewilderment. "Major General, what's going on? Is it going to rain again?"
It is very similar to the state before the rainstorm.
Brother Jiang stuck his head out of the excavator's compartment, looking at the ever-changing sky, not understanding what was happening.
"Wait a minute, I'll send someone to ask His Highness."
"Just get to work, don't panic."
Brother Jiang was also worried, but he still spoke out to comfort the people.
He also ordered his subordinates to go to the governor's mansion to find Jiang Qingqing.
On the hillside
Several sisters-in-law were instructing everyone on how to pick the medicinal herbs completely.
Everyone was also shocked by the strange phenomenon in the sky.
“Snap—”
A purple lightning bolt fell from the sky. Although it was not as big as the one that struck the Jiang family on the day they beheaded them, it was still terrifying enough.
The purple lightning struck a pine tree at the top of the slope, and the sturdy pine tree broke.
Hit the ground.
This scene scared many girls.
"Ah! What's going on? Let's go home! We can't do this job anymore."
"Madam, what's going on with this thunder? Is it a god..."
Before anyone could finish their argument, the sound of war drums could be heard from the distant city wall. Each drum beat became heavier, deeper, and faster.
The regular knocking sound made the sisters-in-law change color.
Hearing the drumbeats, Brother Jiang quickly jumped off the excavator and ran towards the city wall.
"Follow us! Hurry up! A war is about to start! Everyone else, find a place to hide."
Brother Jiang shouted to the soldiers around him.
The originally orderly Xuzhou.
Because of the thunderous sound of war that resounded through the sky, people were frightened and fled in all directions. The people always remembered that the last time the drums beat so fiercely was when Yingzhou City was conquered by the Tianqi Kingdom.
"What should we do? What should we do? Where can we hide?"
The houses were all washed away when the rainstorm came.
There is no time to build it yet.
They were ordered to dig tunnels instead.
Everyone was helpless, but the war was imminent and Jiang Qingqing had no time to properly accommodate them.
"Let's find a cave and go! Bring food with you. No matter where you go, run as far away from the city wall as possible and run towards the central hillside."
The people of Xuzhou fled in panic on the streets.
In other states, people were frantically rushing to buy supplies on the streets.
Shouting and arguing.
So similar, yet so different.
The moment Jiang Qingqing heard the war drums, she ran to the carriage and galloped towards the intersection of the Yingzhou and Xuzhou city walls.
I'm afraid this is what Xiao Congyan meant when he told her yesterday not to cry.
The enemy is attacking.
The walls of Xuzhou had long been covered with electric grids, but now the generators were damaged by stronger lightning.
The generals and soldiers of Tianqi Kingdom were surprised when they saw the lightning released from Xiao Congyan's hands: What kind of evil magic did this third prince learn?
Marshal Zhao was glad that he did not disrespect Xiao Congyan.
Seeing the released pigeons standing safely on the electric fence, Marshal Zhao said excitedly:
"Third Prince, the net is useless. Can we attack the city now?"
Xiao Congyan glanced at the city wall, but saw no sign of Jiang Qingqing yet, so he waved his hand and said, "Wait."
He came here today mainly to fight.
What’s the point of fighting if the protagonist isn’t here yet?
It would be even better if we could capture Xuzhou City.
It would be fun to snatch Jiang Qingqing away and tease her every day. Looking at her rosy peach blossom eyes would be quite interesting.
The 200,000-strong army of the Tianqi Kingdom has already lined up at the foot of the city.
Just waiting for Xiao Congyan to speak.
The other side.
The Su family army led by Liu Xubai also lined up under the city walls of Wuzhou and Xuzhou.
Uncle Jiang looked at him with a gloomy face.
"You're truly a traitor. In order to capture Xuzhou, you even went so far as to cooperate with the Tianqi Kingdom. Liu Xubai, are you crazy?"
Uncle Jiang stood on the city wall and shouted at Liu Xubai.
Thinking of the sneaky things Liu Xubai did to Jiang Qingqing, he became even angrier!
Xiao Congyan's hand couldn't stretch that far, so the power grid on their side was intact and not damaged.
The power grid can be used normally.
"Shoot!"
Uncle Jiang gave the order first.
Who cares about the 150,000-strong Su family army? They have an electric fence. Even if they bring 80,000 soldiers, they won't be at all vulnerable against those bastards!
A waterfall of arrows shot out from the city wall, and the Su family army's shields were ready.
Hidden among the troops are their newly developed weapons.
Throw artillery!
"Fire the cannon!"
Liu Xubai saw that Jiang Qingqing was not on the city wall. Unlike Xiao Congyan, he immediately launched a war.
A quick and decisive battle was necessary to avoid the relentless artillery fire from injuring her.
——
When Jiang Qingqing climbed up the city wall.
A purple lightning bolt struck through the stone at her feet, and Jiang Qingqing quickly retracted her foot, which was about to take a step forward.
"Little White Rabbit, where's the ghost behind you? Call him out."
Xiao Congyan shouted at Jiang Qingqing.
Lightning danced on his fingertips as he slowly gave the order: "Attack the city."
Tianqi's 200,000-strong army is approaching.
Father Jiang had already brought the gunpowder and fired at the command!
But before the artillery fire could fly far, it was sucked back by Xiao Congyan's special power and crashed into the city wall. "BOOM!——"
The city wall was shaking quite a bit, and Jiang Qingqing staggered a little.
"Aren't you going to release the thunder yet? God."
Jiang Qingqing leaned against the wall and asked Fu Zhengnan.
She had already informed him on the way here that today's battle would definitely trouble the gods.
Otherwise, how could one think about it? The Jiang family army only had a few hundred thousand soldiers, and they were scattered on two city walls. Some of them had dug tunnels. Without the help of gods, they would definitely not be able to win.
Fu Zhengnan watched Bai Wan design items for counterattacks and attacks on the battlefield.
The corners of his mouth twitched.
Fu Zhengnan: "No need for thunder today."
He knew who Jiang Qingqing inherited her sometimes inexplicable and abstract behavior from.
Fighting a war with these things is quite abstract.
