"General, if I may be so bold, who are we fighting?"
"Who dares to attack us?"
"Isn't that just courting death?"
"Those gunshots..." a Russian soldier muttered drunkenly, "Who can guarantee that those guns were aimed at us?"
"Besides, General, this is the capital of the Xianbei people. Even if this capital is captured, what does it have to do with us?"
"We'll fight if we can, and retreat if we can't. It's not like we're losing our territory."
Sheffield was furious at the sight of these people spouting nonsense.
“They’re not here for us. Who are they here for? You all, perk up your ears and listen carefully.” Sheffield grabbed the drunkard’s ear and yanked it upwards with force.
The drunkard was wincing in pain.
"Listen carefully, all of you. Those gunshots and cannon shots were all from our guns and cannons."
Why are our guns making noise outside the city? You pig-brains, get your act together!
Sheffield's words stunned everyone.
"General, do you mean that Alexei and his men have also failed?"
"If that's the case, then the other party's intentions are not good."
"We must be prepared."
"Otherwise, it will be troublesome."
Hearing this, Sheffield gritted his teeth in anger: "These idiots, are they only realizing it now?"
"Listen up, everyone! Pick up your weapons and prepare for battle!"
Just then, the sound of horses' hooves came from the middle of the street.
Because these Russians were running rampant in the city, all the people in the city who could escape fled.
Those who couldn't escape kept their doors tightly shut all day.
The people in the city dared not wander around the streets.
Hearing the sound of hooves, Sheffield realized there were quite a few people, so he quickly turned around and looked into the distance.
All the Russian soldiers looked into the distance.
Under a gray sky, on the wide central road... a car slowly approached.
On either side of the carriage were Xiang Yu, Li Yuanba, and Dian Wei.
Following closely behind this vehicle were Jiang Tian's 100 personal guard cavalrymen.
Following closely behind were 2,000 elite Tiger Warriors.
Everyone panicked upon seeing this.
The arrogance that once clung to their faces was long gone.
Sheffield roared, "What are you idiots standing there for? Prepare for battle!"
Li Yuanba tossed one of the two cannons he was carrying on his shoulder to Dian Wei.
"Bomb these sons of bitches!" Li Yuanba roared.
He and Dian Wei loaded their cannons almost simultaneously.
The two men pulled the triggers into each other's crowd.
Two loud booms.
Two shells were fired from the barrel and flew away.
The two cannonballs hit the Russian soldiers in the middle of the group with precision.
Two more deafening explosions rang out.
The scorching and sharp shrapnel, like a shower of flowers, easily pierced through the bodies of these Russian soldiers amidst the crowd.
The shockwave from the explosion scattered the Russian soldiers everywhere.
These Russian soldiers were blown to pieces, their limbs and torsos flying dozens of meters away.
When the smoke cleared, two shell craters remained on the ground.
These Rakshasa soldiers lay scattered on the ground.
The two shells killed more than 40 people and injured more than 100 on the spot.
The wounded Russian soldiers clutched their wounds, screaming and groaning as they rolled and writhed on the ground.
"You beasts, how dare you launch a sneak attack!"
"God, it hurts so much!"
"God, save me! My guts have been blown open."
"My arm, where did my arm go? Has anyone seen my arm?"
"My legs, my legs, without legs, I'll be a cripple for the rest of my life."
Several Rakshasa soldiers had half their heads blown off, their brains mixed with blood, and were draped over their shoulders.
Sheffield fared no better; the guy was blasted more than ten meters away and crashed heavily onto the steps, his head bleeding profusely.
When the Russian soldiers saw the rapidly approaching column, they quickly dropped their weapons, knelt down with a thud, and raised their hands high.
"We surrender."
"Please cease your attack."
"We surrender."
Please stop hurting us.
Jiang Tian looked at the Rakshasa soldiers in the distance, who had raised their hands and knelt on the ground. He curled his lip and said, "They surrendered just like that. They are really pathetic."
Where did all that arrogance of yours go?
With a screech, Jiang Tian gently stepped on the brakes, and the vehicle came to a steady stop in front of the group of Russian soldiers.
Dian Wei, Xiang Yu, and Li Yuanba looked down on these Russian soldiers who surrendered so easily.
"My lord, why are they raising their hands?"
"Want to take another shot from me?" Li Yuanba shoved another cannonball in.
"They've surrendered." Jiang Tian said with a look of disdain.
"They surrendered without even firing a single shot? This bunch of trash managed to wreak havoc on the Xianbei capital like this."
The group looked around.
Within the imperial city, devastation was everywhere.
Many places have been reduced to ruins by the raging fire.
Jiang Tian learned about everything that was happening in the city through Chen Jianghe's carrier pigeon.
"My lord, we will not accept their surrender. Let them continue to fight us." Xiang Yu patted the Tsar's cannon not far away.
Li Yuanba: "You bastards, don't kneel! Stand up and pick up your weapons!"
When everyone saw the two Tsar Cannons pointed at them.
They were all terrified.
If you forbid them from kneeling, they will never dare to stand up.
“We have already surrendered, you can’t treat us like this anymore.”
"We admit we are no match for you. We hope you will treat us fairly; we are all your prisoners of war."
“We have already surrendered, and you have no right to ask us to take up arms and continue fighting you.”
These Russian soldiers were very eloquent.
Dian Wei frowned: "My lord, what are these guys saying in all that babbling?"
"Never mind what they say, just confiscate their guns first. Then notify the people in the city to come and take revenge on these Russians." Jiang Tian's meaning was clear.
First, let the people in the city wipe out these Rakshasa people, and gain some goodwill from the city's residents.
Then we'll figure out a way to destroy the imperial city.
"What are you standing there for? Quickly disarm them all!" Jiang Tian shouted again.
The 2,000 elite soldiers quickly advanced.
The Russian soldiers knelt there, not daring to move, let alone resist.
We could only watch helplessly as our guns were taken away.
