Chapter 698: Return to Moon City quickly!
Liao Jiu said, "Let's not talk about it for now. The war situation is more important. After we defeat the Five-Nation Alliance, we will have plenty of opportunities to talk about it as a family. Let's talk about the war first."
"good!"
The three of them got back to the topic.
Let’s get down to business.
Liao Jiu told Erlangjun about their initial strategic plan in Yuecheng. Erlangjun patted his chest and guaranteed that they would be able to reach Yuecheng as early as tomorrow, and at the latest the morning of the day after tomorrow.
He also praised Liao Jiu's plans and proposals for being feasible.
He severely criticized the five-nation coalition for being unreasonable and daring to commit crimes against the Da'an Kingdom. In the past, when he followed the King of War to fight, these small countries were not worth mentioning and he never took them seriously.
After talking for half an hour, Liao Jiu and his wife summoned the golden eagle and hurriedly left Shangrao City.
Erlangjun looked at the sky where the two of them were going for a long time, until the little black dot could no longer be seen in the sky.
After Liao Jiu and his wife left Shangrao City, they flew on the road.
The two were also discussing.
"Wife, is it true that Erlangjun didn't receive the letter for help? And where's the messenger? He rode at full speed and it only took a day or two to get here. The letter must have been delivered more than once. Someone intercepted it once, but was it intercepted the second and third time?"
Jiang Lianzhu didn't think it was a good idea either.
"If he pretended not to receive it, it would mean he didn't want to go to the battle. But now, as soon as we arrived, he immediately sent troops and said he wanted to go with us. He didn't say a word of excuse and acted very sincerely."
Liao Jiu mused for a moment on Chengfeng's back, "That's true. However, there's always something else behind Erlang's words. Wife, did you hear that?"
Jiang Lianzhu must have heard it.
Erlang Jun first explained the matter of the War King's retreat and the leak of news.
It is said that many people were keeping an eye on Shangrao City, and everyone was watching to see if the King of War had returned. Although he had provided cover, he was still hard to guard against. Later, he arrested the person who deliberately inquired about the news to prove his innocence. He was very defensive.
Then, Erlangjun said that his illness was the same as what Wang Ming had left behind when he went out to fight in the war. This subtly explained that he was at odds with Wang Ming, and indirectly explained to Jiang Lianzhu that he was at odds with Wang Ming, and that Wang Ming had wronged him before his death, and that he had not done anything bad to Jiang Lianzhu.
Jiang Lianzhu said, "No matter what happens to him, we should quickly support Yuecheng and defend Yuecheng first."
Let’s talk about other things.
Liao Jiudao said, "I've always felt that your second brother isn't as gentle and easygoing as he appears. Something's amiss. He doesn't look well. Why would he personally lead his troops to Yuecheng? If he's not well, how could he possibly make the journey? Wouldn't the best approach be to hand over the Blood Battle Army to us? Who would be held responsible if military intelligence was lost? Or does the Blood Battle Army have some special management methods?"
Jiang Lianzhu's eyelids suddenly twitched.
"I have a bad feeling again."
Attracted Liao Jiu's attention.
"What's wrong, wife?"
Jiang Lianzhu glanced back at Shangrao City and quickened her pace, "I don't know why, but hurry back to Yuecheng!!!"
***
Outside Yuecheng, the army is approaching.
The gunpowder cart was pushed rumblingly towards the city gate.
The heavy crossbow carts were hidden in the crowd, and the army, stretching as far as the eye could see, rushed towards Yuecheng with sharp weapons in hand.
General Jiang asked his men to cheer up and defend the city.
While cursing, "Damn it, this is not going to stop today! Didn't you come once just now? And now you come again! Is this not going to stop today?"
The soldier who went to deliver the letter outside the city is back.
"City Guard, Lord Castle Guard!!"
General Jiang angrily said, "Tell me! What's wrong with those bastards? Aren't they following the rules? Why are they suddenly sending troops without even discussing negotiations?"
The soldier replied, "Lord City Guard, we went to deliver a peace letter, but the Aquarius people expelled us. They said we were deliberately stalling for time and didn't really want to talk. If we wanted to talk, we should do it today. They said they saw our Lord Regent arrive in Moon City, so why did we schedule the talks for tomorrow? We're just trying to delay! They said we were unkind, so they don't want to talk anymore..."
General Jiang cursed again, "Bullshit! What do you mean you don't want to talk anymore? They're reinforcements arriving again."
He held a telescope on the city wall and saw another large wave of soldiers from the five-nation coalition joining the Aquarius camp.
Now their military strength is at least 100,000.
There are hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city, and there are only a few thousand people in Yuecheng now. How can they defend it?
A large number of people alone can overthrow Yuecheng, and there is no need for those gunpowder carts.
The subordinate asked, "General, what should we do now? They look like they're really going to attack the city this time. We can't hold it! Should we retreat first, meet up with the army from the imperial court, and then counterattack? If we resist in vain, the casualties will probably be huge..."
General Jiang spat, "Bah! There's no such thing as retreat here. Even if we die fighting here, we must defend the city. If we can't defend it, we must defend it. If we can't defend it, we will die! Pass the order down, no one can be a deserter. Anyone who abandons the city and retreats will be executed on the spot!"
The entire city is on alert and all city defense facilities are open.
Be prepared for a desperate fight.
The first line of city defense below began to be destroyed, and the ground spikes were all destroyed.
The attackers were so dense that the archers on the walls couldn't shoot them all. Some even used their tiger claws to try to scale the walls...
This was the scene Jiang Lianzhu and the others saw when they flew back.
At this moment, I can't take care of it.
Jiang Lianzhu and his wife took out laser guns, aimed at those who were climbing the city wall, and fired at them.
Those people fell down immediately.
A wooden ox cart had arrived at the city gate and started ramming it.
Jiang Lianzhu and Ji Feng were in tune with each other. She ordered Ji Feng to dive over and threw a grenade at him without any hesitation.
"Boom!" With a sound, the wooden ox cart and the Aquarius soldiers around it were blown into ashes...
Everyone was shocked.
It’s so powerful!
The Yuecheng soldiers on the city wall saw it clearly and were greatly encouraged.
Cheers, "The Lord Regent is back!"
"What happened just now? Was it an explosion? It was so powerful!"
"Kill these bastards! Let them attack the city and kill them all..."
"Is the Lord Regent using some kind of long-range weapon? It looks to me like it was thrown from a golden eagle."
…
General Jiang shouted, "Boys, beat these bastards for me! Our Lord Regent and his men have gunpowder! They are supporting us in the sky, why should we be afraid of them? Beat them and make sure they have nothing to lose..."
Crazy with red eyes.
In the Aquarius army, several crossbow carts were pointed towards the sky...
The Da'an soldiers on the city wall saw this and cried out, "Oh no! Lord City Guard, they're trying to shoot the golden eagle with their crossbows!"
Suddenly, everyone became nervous.
Several crossbow arrows were aimed at Chengfeng and Jifeng with great force, shooting one after another!
