Due to the limitations of the terrain, hundreds of thousands of people in the Sakura Kingdom were unable to launch a full-scale counterattack.
When they finally reached the city walls after overcoming numerous hardships, the more than twenty-meter-high walls instantly became their biggest obstacle.
On the city walls, under the command of the wanderers.
The long-range units fully demonstrated their advantage of firing from a high altitude to a low altitude.
No precise aiming is required; they simply unleash their skills into the crowd.
In this life-or-death moment, skills and techniques become irrelevant.
Every soldier understood that what they needed to do was eliminate the enemy as quickly as possible.
Therefore, they no longer adhere to fixed moves and techniques; they use whatever skills are available.
What remains is to enjoy the groans and wails of this group of cherry blossom lovers.
However, this group of Japanese people did not have the advantage of a high vantage point.
They also lost their composure after being attacked.
Despite the archers' and mages' relentless attacks, their efforts were largely ineffective.
They could only occasionally injure a few overly aggressive defenders.
Clearly, they are inferior in both the accuracy and lethality of their skills.
However, even if someone was injured, the Chinese quickly replaced them with reserve forces and received healing from Taoist priests before swiftly returning to the battlefield.
After all, for every Chinese person present...
If this battle had taken place in peacetime, it would have been a monumental feat worthy of being recorded in the family history.
Therefore, everyone adhered to the belief of "not leaving the front line with minor injuries" and burned with fighting spirit.
Since the attack wouldn't cause much damage to the Chinese people on the city wall.
However, the Sakura Kingdom did not give up and instead focused on depleting the city's durability.
However, as is well known, the people of Japan have always cherished the "craftsman spirit," a spirit deeply imprinted in their hearts.
In the process of reinforcing the capital's city walls, the materials they selected and the techniques they employed were of the highest standard.
To be fair, this craftsmanship is far superior to the shoddy construction work done by the Lin Rufei family in Xingcheng.
Despite the relentless barrage of ranged attacks on the city walls, they remained as solid as a rock, barely causing a ripple.
Is that all the strength you've got? It'll be very difficult to break through the city!
"Brothers! I've got a new Battle Merit Points system, do you guys have one?"
"Me too! From now on, as long as we kill these beasts, we'll get battle merits!"
"I just heard the leader of the Wanderers say that battle merits can be exchanged for rewards in the Royal Palace Shop."
"Haha! Once I've saved up 100 battle merits, I'm going to show off my skills in the store and go on a shopping spree!"
"The Lone Wolf is the real ruthless one! One of his skills can probably earn him thousands of battle merits..."
Thousands of battle merits?
That's just basic operation.
With the title of "the mortal enemy of the Cherry Blossom Country," breaking 10,000 in one move is not a dream.
Just as the attack on the Sakura Kingdom reached a stalemate and all strategies failed to work.
Ryuichi Shiraishi, who was overseeing the battle from a distance, had a grim expression.
To his utter surprise, the planned three-pronged encirclement tactic did not materialize.
The armies at the west and north gates were approaching the city walls, while at the same time, a massive force of 700,000 warriors was also approaching.
Outside the East Gate, Su Yue single-handedly held them off.
The group was walking on thin ice, a full 500 meters away from the East Gate.
What angered Shiraishi Ryuichi even more was that this despicable lone wolf was still causing them trouble with its long-range attacks.
He could even use his skills on the direct forces of the Beimen Baishi family, causing them considerable trouble.
Currently, the difficulties we face go far beyond the numerous positive obstacles.
The seemingly secure flank defense was now directly exposed to the lone wolf's attack.
After careful consideration, Ryuichi Shiraishi finally made up his mind and took action.
Suddenly, the lord-level zombie known as "Emperor Chongtian" appeared.
Escorted by a group of elite troops, they charged out of the northern route like tigers descending a mountain and arrived in front of the main force.
In fact, Emperor Suten, who was caught in the queue at the North Gate, had limited room to maneuver.
However, the most open and weakest area right now is undoubtedly the east gate, which Su Yue is defending alone.
Emperor Suten, who was originally unremarkable in stature, was transformed in an instant into a burly and imposing warrior.
He stood before everyone like a majestic mountain, imposing and extraordinary.
Emperor Chongtian was not only skilled in both offense and defense, but also a shining star in the first martial arts tournament of the Sakura Kingdom.
It was with Emperor Chongtian's strong support that Shiraishi Ryu swept through the land with unstoppable momentum, becoming invincible.
His opponents could not last more than ten seconds against him.
When Emperor Chongtian revealed his strongest defensive form, a massive protective shield stood before him.
The scene was incredibly awe-inspiring as he sheltered those behind him.
Those Japanese people who were once terrified now seem to have found a beacon of hope.
His eyes shone with boundless reverence and gratitude for Emperor Sumeru.
Under Emperor Suten's valiant leadership, the people's fear gradually dissipated, and their courage gradually solidified.
"Look, Amaterasu Omikami is protecting us! It's Emperor Sumeru!"
"With Emperor Suji's shield protecting us, what is there to be afraid of?"
"Charge! Charge! Charge forward! Kill the lone wolf..."
However, amidst the crowd's enthusiastic shouts, Su Yue calmly drew back the bowstring.
The arrow shot out like a meteor, aimed straight at Emperor Suji's head.
Emperor Suji instinctively raised his hands and reinforced the shield.
Because of the distance, it had enough time to withstand the sudden attack.
However, what is astonishing is that the arrow seemed to possess the power to pierce through everything.
It ignored Emperor Chongtian's shield and pierced through the two overlapping hands.
It ultimately struck Emperor Suten's forehead with pinpoint accuracy!
