Lin Ru frowned deeply!
The buzzing in my head was incessant!
Even my hearing went out for a while!
Wu Ling quickly walked over and used his strong arms to help Lin Ru down from the city wall!
Lin Ru tried her best to stand up straighter with Wu Ling's help, trying not to give the enemy any clues about what was going on between her and her own people!
However, it was clear that she was overthinking things, because the entire battlefield fell silent after she showed off her skill!
The enemy soldiers below were completely terrified. They watched as their brothers, who had just fought alongside them against the common enemy, turned to ashes in the blink of an eye after a flash of light and a deafening roar!
There were also some soldiers who were at the edge of the range of the spirit cannons, and they didn't know why their arms had suddenly disappeared.
It happened so fast he didn't even have time to feel the pain!
This is simply like the devil!
The soldiers above were stunned by the scene before them. Only a small portion of them had participated in the battle when Prince Shun sent troops to attack Shanping County. Seeing this scene, they instantly recalled their tragic fate! If they hadn't been lucky, they would probably have turned to ashes like those below. The majority of the remaining soldiers stayed behind to guard the border!
They had only heard that their emperor had single-handedly resisted tens of thousands of troops of Prince Shun, and wondered what kind of divine artifact he had used!
Although some people described the scene to them, it was such an unbelievable thing. Without witnessing it firsthand, they naturally wouldn't believe it was possible in this world. A weapon that could turn tens of thousands of soldiers to ashes in an instant!
Some even suspected that these people were exaggerating their defeat as an excuse, but now it seems that since they already have a goddess, what harm is there in having another divine artifact?
They just felt lucky that they had chosen the right side!
Otherwise, they would have disappeared without a trace, just like the people below, leaving not even a complete skeleton behind!
The entire battlefield was silent for only a moment!
The people below immediately started wailing and howling!
"Ouch! My arm!"
My hand!
"Help!"
"A witch! She's a witch!"
Lin Ru leaned against Wu Ling and took a while to recover her senses.
Fortunately, the spirit cannon I used this time was only one-fifth of the power of the previous one!
The girl herself had already accumulated a lot of hatred points. If it were to suddenly increase by tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of hatred points as before!
He's probably already on the verge of going mad!
After silently reciting the Heart-Cleansing Mantra a few times in her heart, she turned around and looked at Hai Jingming, who was standing there in a daze!
"The armor and weapons I promised you are ready."
"Go and get the soldiers dressed in armor and armed!"
"General Hai! If we can't drive the enemy back this time!"
"I think you don't need to be a general anymore!"
Upon hearing this, Hai Jingming immediately came to his senses!
His face was full of joy!
"Yes, sir!"
Aside from the armor and that mysterious weapon made by His Majesty, let alone the Marquis of Zhennan! Even if another marquis were to appear, he wouldn't have an easy time!
When he led his soldiers to the armory and opened the door, he was stunned. The armory was filled with weapons and armor. How did His Majesty manage to get so much stuff in such a short time?
Moreover, as far as he knew, these things should have been delivered by Quan Jinyu himself. However, Quan Jinyu and his troops did not arrive, but these weapons and armor did!
This inevitably reminded him of all those messy rumors circulating outside!
The Marquis of Zhennan so confidently spread the word that Her Majesty the Empress abandoned the city and fled, and he even described it in great detail!
Perhaps it's not just a rumor!
It's not that His Majesty actually used divine power to bring these armors and weapons over from outside the city in such a short time!
Thinking of this!
He felt increasingly guilty!
He became even more determined to go back and, even if it meant risking his life, take back what His Majesty wanted!
The soldiers were also thrilled when they saw these things!
Especially those crossbows that filled the warehouse!
They had just seen this thing used by their own people; His Majesty had used it before, and its power was truly extraordinary!
Not only can it fire in rapid succession, but its range is also much greater than that of ordinary bows and arrows!
And this armor!
It was much lighter and looked much sturdier than what they had worn before!
They rushed to put on their armor and grab their favorite weapons, feeling their blood boiling!
In no time at all, the group was ready to go!
Gathered beneath the city walls, awaiting His Majesty's instructions!
On the Zhennan Marquis's side, the commander-in-chief is dead!
Now it has suffered a great loss of vitality!
The strategists were all in disarray, wondering what to do. Now that the two sides were at war, they could not retreat. If they retreated now, it would be tantamount to handing over their cities to others!
Even without the Marquis of Zhennan!
And there's also the heir of the Marquis of Zhennan!
If the heir apparent dies, the Marquis still has other sons!
Therefore, we cannot refund!
Moreover, even though our side has suffered heavy losses, we still outnumber the enemy!
Thinking of this, the soldiers split up and went back to report to the heir of the Marquis of Zhennan, asking him to come and take charge!
Meanwhile, the other side reassured the soldiers below and revised the siege plan!
However, it can only be said that ideals are very beautiful, but reality is very harsh!
These strategists had no choice but to bite the bullet and appease the soldiers below!
"Soldiers, don't panic!"
"We can't just back down like this. If we do, we'll be giving away the cities we have for nothing!"
"Do you want to live under someone else's roof? We have already made an enemy of that so-called Empress!"
"If she conquers our cities, will she really treat the people behind us well? Have you forgotten? The soldiers under her command today were once the men of Prince Shun!"
"You should be familiar with what Prince Shun does after acquiring the city, right?"
"He would allow his soldiers to kill ordinary civilians, seize their wives and daughters, and insult their elders!"
"Do you want your wives, daughters, and elders to live under the rule of such people for generations to come?"
"What's the difference between that and a slave?"
"So everyone, there's nothing to be afraid of..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a trembling voice from the crowd!
"What can we do?"
"Can we really win against someone like that?"
"That's a shrine maiden!!"
