It was as if the green grass was burned, and its leaves slowly curled up and its back bent.
The wind blew up, stirring up dust, as if even nature was mocking Wang Kai's failure.
His vision was blurred, not only by the dust, but also by the memories that kept coming back to him - the days when he and his brother were full of vigor and joined forces to defeat powerful enemies.
younger brother……
"Bang!" Wang Kai fell off his horse.
The dust has settled and the winner has been decided.
Tong Xin and Mei Niang dealt with the soldiers brought by Wang Kai without hesitation.
Then he rode his horse straight to the north gate of Zhengyang City.
"Attack the city!" With the order, the soldiers behind him drove the siege vehicles and advanced forward madly and unstoppably.
——
East Coast.
Yang Guan and Yun Shuangyi took out the explosive packs from their storage bags and distributed them to the soldiers who were already hiding.
They and the soldiers had already reached the wooden planks of the harbor pier from the azure sea.
Tens of thousands of frogmen were like ghosts, clinging to the wooden planks of the dock, waiting for the order to rush towards the enemy's city gate.
Xiangyang didn't have a storage bag, so he could only wait for distribution from Yang Guan and Yun Shuangyi like the other soldiers.
It is said that the explosive packs cannot be used after being soaked in water, so this time Mr. Yang and Mr. Yun must be responsible for transporting the gunpowder.
Their mission today is to find an opportunity to use explosives to break down the east gate of Zhengyang City.
It would be best if we could break in and capture Cui Xia alive.
After making sure that the soldiers behind him were all ready, Yang Guan's expression turned cold as he stared at the east gate of Zhengyang City, which had few guards.
He shouted in a low voice: "Go!"
Tens of thousands of frogmen dressed in black emerged from the sea.
On the city wall, the enemy's warning sounded like thunder.
"Enemy attack!" "Enemy attack!"
Yun Shuangyi immediately brought a team of soldiers, skillfully ignited the explosive pack, and used spiritual power to throw the explosive pack into the city.
The soldiers behind her did the same, but they did not throw as far as Yun Shuangyi. They only threw them at the enemy's city gate and under the city wall.
'Bang!' 'Bang, bang!' 'Bang!'
Continuous huge earthquakes suddenly roared out from the coastline east of Zhengyang City.
Cui Xia suddenly opened his eyes, pushed away the courtesan who was massaging and serving him, and listened carefully.
"East?" Cui Xia's expression changed slightly. He stood up suddenly, grabbed a piece of clothing and hurried out of the mansion.
The soldier who had been waiting at the door for a long time was very discerning and immediately told everyone what he had just found out.
"Sir Governor, the noise from the east is the enemy diving in with a powerful weapon.
My lord, you have calculated before that Qingshizhou, Fanzhou and Chuzhou are not near the sea, so the enemy should not have so many soldiers who are good at swimming to dive over.
Also, it would certainly be inconvenient for enemy soldiers to swim with that weapon.
In the water, one person may only be able to hold one or two at most, and after a while they may become exhausted and retreat on their own!
Don’t worry, sir.”
Cui Xia's face was as gloomy as water. He walked quickly towards the east city gate, paying no attention to the words of the soldiers around him.
No, that's absolutely not right. It will definitely not be as he said!
The fact that Ji Wan, this thief, conquered two states in two years without a single defeat is enough to prove his strength.
Would a powerful person let his soldiers go deep behind enemy lines and risk being unable to follow up when attacking a city?
Absolutely not! Unless it's a trick!
But according to his guess, Ji Wan's soldiers were only guarding the tents in front of the west city gate, so they were only left in front of the north city gate!
Why did he still have the energy to launch a surprise attack on his East City Gate?
Didn’t Ji Wan’s soldiers go to the north gate?
No, that's not right. If there was no one here, Wang Kai should have come back long ago!
Cui Xia was thinking while hurrying on his way, but he didn't feel anxious at all.
After all, he has more than just the North Gate as a backup.
But I couldn't help but feel surprised.
I was surprised that Ji Wan and his advisers were not easy to deal with.
He couldn't quite believe that this time it was Ji Wan from Cui Min's loser gang.
It must be that Ji Wan has other capable people helping her.
How come I haven't heard of him before? For someone this famous and powerful, rising to fame shouldn't be a problem at all.
When Cui Xia reached the city wall, he found that the city wall had been torn into pieces by the enemy. It had completely lost its former majestic appearance, standing tall between heaven and earth.
Cui Xia frowned, but when he saw that the soldiers below did not have any large siege equipment, he slowly relaxed his brows.
Without large siege engines, were they planning to attack the city with their bodies? Or were they planning to attack the city with the powerful weapon they couldn't bring with them?
Are you kidding me?
Could it be... that they have other tricks up their sleeve? Or are these people also trying to attract his attention?
After thinking for a long time, I really don’t understand what Ji Wan’s purpose is.
Cui Xia grabbed the bow and arrow from the soldier beside him, and aimed his eyes like an eagle at the female soldier who was killing the enemy.
A "whoosh!" sound suddenly rang out, heading straight for the female soldier behind Yun Shuangyi.
Yun Shuangyi's eyes became fierce, his hands slid, he turned around and pushed the female soldier behind him away with the barrel of his gun.
He successfully made the feather arrow that broke through the air fall into the mud in front of him.
After the female soldier reacted, she widened her eyes in horror, glanced up at the city wall, and then gave Yun Shuangyi a grateful look.
The surroundings were in chaos and fighting. Yun Shuangyi threw out another explosive pack without paying close attention to the female soldier's lip movements.
But I think what I should say is something like 'Thank you, General Yun'.
Cui Xia, who was standing on the city wall, frowned and turned to ask the soldier beside him, "How long will it take for those pirates to arrive?"
"In reply to your Excellency's words, I received a letter via carrier pigeon this morning. If nothing unexpected happens, the group will arrive tonight."
Bah! Why would we arrive at night? We can obviously get there in the morning. We just grabbed some things on the way.
"Boom!" It was the explosive pack thrown by Yun Shuangyi that exploded again.
"Tell them to come immediately! Otherwise, if Zhengyang City is captured, I will see how they will get supplies!"
Cui Xia has always been a refined gentleman, but this is the first time he has spoken in such an urgent tone.
The soldier was also stunned for a moment, and then turned around without hesitation and went down the city wall to look for the messenger soldier who raised the carrier pigeons.
Cui Xia stared at the female general who was advancing like a hot knife through butter under the city with his cold eyes, and he felt a little anxious.
These powerful weapons kept coming out, so how could he, with so few people left in the city, defeat them?
He knew that the pirates had been bandits for so many years that they had grown up and would delay orders.
But he absolutely cannot tolerate failure at the critical moment.
A scout came running over hurriedly, shouting as he ran.
