"Not good! Your Highness, it must be those bandits from the Cheshi Frontier Kingdom."
“…”
At this time, the only thing that came to their minds was the scene of their city being occupied.
"Retreat, retreat immediately!"
Not surprisingly, they withdrew.
Fengyun wanted to plunder the city as quickly as possible and then rush to the next city closer to Loulan City.
He had no way of determining which countries were involved.
After all, it is impossible for all 36 countries in the Western Regions to participate.
After they withdrew, another country came.
But they soon withdrew for the same reason.
Fengyun led his cavalry, riding one horse and several horses in rotation, and swept across the surrounding countries continuously.
Of course he would not attack the cities whose walls were full of soldiers, which meant that the other side had not sent any troops out at all.
Why would he attack?
At this time, Loulan City had already been attacked by more than ten countries.
Even if they could fight ten people at once, their casualties and fatigue levels had already reached a limit.
"Father, what should we do? Can our soldiers hold on?"
"Shana, if you can't hold on any longer, you can leave first. You can't stay."
"No, Father. I must wait for my husband to return."
"No, you can just go to Yongning Town and wait for him now."
"Father, I won't go. If you want to go, let's go together. I can't leave you behind."
"Well, okay. Then you should go and clean up our treasury first, and have the rich people clean up as well, and have them go to Yongning Town first. If we really lose Loulan, we will have a chance to take it back later."
Loulan and his daughter also had no other choice.
Soldiers are not made of iron.
After several days of continuous high-intensity fighting, they were very tired.
Maybe it can barely hold out for one more battle.
The father and daughter must prepare in advance so that they have the opportunity to make a comeback in the future.
At the same time, Marbury was called.
"Marbury, have the injured soldiers teleport to Yongning Town first. I'm afraid we'll have a tough battle ahead."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Marbury naturally couldn't just watch his men die so helplessly.
The king's order made him very happy.
Immediately organize people to transfer the wounded.
…
At this time, Duke Rank, who had been hiding, finally appeared.
This time he traveled with the armies of several nations.
"Hahaha, congratulations, Duke Rank. With so many countries attacking before, I think Loulan has been taken by now. You can become the king of Loulan as soon as you arrive."
"Hahaha, congratulations! You too can get the princess of your dreams."
"How can we still have a turn? I'm afraid the princess has already been snatched away by those who arrived earlier."
Duke Ranke comforted:
"Even if there's no princess anymore, you can still get a share of Loulan's tax revenue. It won't be in vain."
These Western Region countries are smaller than the previous ones. They know that they cannot compete with others, so they take the initiative to get close to Duke Rank.
But this Duke Rank was so shameless that he even sold his own niece.
It's absolutely shameless.
But at this moment, a troop in front of them was not heading towards Loulan, but running towards them.
"Oh no! Something's happening, the enemy is coming."
"What enemy? Did Loulan take the initiative to send troops?"
Duke Rank was quite familiar with the Loulan army.
He shook his head and said, "No, they definitely cannot be the Loulan Army."
However, some people also realized that these people were not coming for them.
"Look, they want to avoid us, so they probably don't have any intentions towards us."
"It seems so. What happened to them? Why did they retreat again?"
"Don't worry about it, just go up and ask."
After confirming that these troops had no ill intentions, they were able to connect with each other.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you all retreating? Is the battle for Loulan over?"
"What the hell are we going to do? Our main city is about to be lost. Why don't you leave and stay here for the New Year?"
"Who is so bold as to attack your city?"
"How would I know? I won't say anything. It will be too late if I delay."
The prince was about to leave as he spoke, and it was obvious that he didn't want to get involved in this mess.
"Wait, can you tell us what the situation is like in Loulan now? Has it been taken down?"
"We didn't take anything. When we went there, there was only the army of Qiemo. We didn't see a single hair. After our attack was fruitless, we heard that Qiemo City had been attacked. Well, I won't say anymore. You guys can have fun on your own."
Now the Prince of Qiemo no longer cared about them and went straight home with his men.
Now Duke Rank and a group of princes were left in disarray in the wind.
"How is it possible that there isn't a single country? Didn't we see armies from many countries setting out along the way?"
"Yeah. He won't be later than us."
"Does that mean they've all gone back?"
Someone asked a question, and everyone fell silent.
As long as Prince Qiemo is not lying, then this matter is likely to be true.
Seeing that everyone had lost their morale due to these words, Duke Rank could only encourage them:
"Everyone, don't be like this. The situation may not be as bad as you think. Now that we're out, we must go to the city to see if this is the case. You have to know that we have contacted more than a dozen countries this time. If they all went to fight, Loulan would definitely not be in such an easy situation. Even if they can hold on, they will be at the end of their strength."
"Yes, yes, Duke Rank is right. Didn't Prince Qiemo just say that they only received the notice after a battle? Doesn't this mean that Loulan City also cost a lot? Perhaps, as Duke Rank said, they are definitely doomed and all they need is our final blow."
After hearing this, everyone's morale was restored.
"Well, let's go to Loulan City first and see what happens."
The army then set out again, and fortunately they were not far from Loulan.
"Everyone speed up."
"good!"
There are armies from several countries here. Although the number of people in each country is not large, the total number is 500,000.
It is not impossible to fight against Loulan with so many troops.
As they accelerated, dust billowed across the Gobi Desert.
Two hours later, they arrived at the city of Loulan.
They saw that the city walls were almost covered in blood, and they could imagine how brutal the battle was.
"Everyone sees this, right? This must have been left behind after rounds of battle. Although Loulan City looks intact, it certainly doesn't have much fighting power left now."
Duke Rank patted his chest and said this with confidence.
