In the Bixiaoxuan Realm, that rare battle in five hundred years finally disappeared into the darkness as the sun rose.
The people of Beiyang, who had been silent all night, finally became panic-stricken at this moment.
Everything within ten miles of the granary was turned into a piece of scorched earth. Those residents who had food in their homes were fine, but those who did not have much food in their homes started to make a fuss.
The grain stores in the city have been overrun by the residents of the Imperial City. The price of grain has skyrocketed, reaching a staggering astronomical figure, and shows no sign of coming down.
Outside the Imperial City, Beitang Jun, who had a splitting headache, slowly got up. He listened to the spies' information about the Imperial City, and finally a smile appeared on his pale face.
"Soldiers! The Beiyang Imperial City is already in chaos. Let us work together to capture the Imperial City." Beitang Jun pointed at the Imperial City and said with great pride, "Capture the Imperial City, grant the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, and dissolve the military discipline for three days!"
After Beitang Jun's words fell, the 20,000 defeated soldiers who were originally dejected suddenly became energetic. The desperadoes who were originally put together temporarily for glory and wealth, how could they remain calm in the face of interests.
Morale was high, and 20,000 troops came to the city again.
There was chaos inside the city and siege outside the city. The Beiyang Imperial City was once again in crisis.
Cai Hu hid in the woods, looked at Beitang Jun's enthusiastic back, curled his lips, and showed an extremely contemptuous smile.
He held six skulls as big as a thumb in his hand. The skulls were green in color and densely covered with runes. The runes were extremely simple and vaguely creepy.
Cai Hu slowly buried the six skulls into the soil with great detail.
...
...
Under the Beiyang Imperial City, 20,000 Yan troops had begun to rush towards the city tower without caring about their safety. Thousands of arrows were fired from the top of the city, and many people were shot into hedgehogs in an instant.
Colorful black energy of various attributes clashed on the city tower. Heat waves stirred up waves of flying sand. Golden arrows, cyan vines, blue ice cones, red fireballs, brown stone pillars, purple
Wind blades and yellow thunder flew rapidly in the space below and above the city without stopping.
Wang Bodang and Tuoba Fu went into battle together, each holding a powerful bow, and the cat was behind the city wall. The two of them shot out hidden arrows from time to time, as if in a competition. Each arrow shot must be from the enemy's captain.
The captain was killed by an arrow.
Ye Junlin is the commander-in-chief of this "city tower defense battle" this time. He holds a red flame sword and stands proudly at the front of the city tower. Every time an enemy desperate for his life rushes up, he will kill him mercilessly with his sword.
, cut into two pieces.
The battle below and above the city lasted for several hours. During these hours, the Yan army, which was originally small, lost more than 5,000 people. For this reason, there were also more than 3,000 Yulin troops,
Sacrifice yourself for your country.
While the battle was fierce on the towers of the Beiyang Imperial City, a war without gunpowder was quietly unfolding inside the Imperial City.
Last night, Deng Enming's 'assault team' lost most of its members, but dozens of them still blended into the crowd of people.
Early in the morning, these members of the "Commando Squad" began to create chaos everywhere, instigating residents who had no food reserves to rob food from large households, food stores, and even food from the army.
In response, Wei Ye personally led 5,000 imperial troops to suppress the situation, and finally brought the rioting people under control. However, the people became increasingly angry, and a new popular riot in the city was about to break out.
In the Beiyang Palace, Beitang Ciju sat on the throne with a worried look on his face, looking depressed. Qian Mo and Li Mo protected him at all times, for fear that another assassin would come to kill him.
Beitang Ciju held his forehead with both hands, and could not see his expression. But with his toes, he could also imagine that his expression at this moment must be ugly.
When Beitang's second horse was helpless, Wei Ye came slowly with his sword hanging.
"Greetings to the king." Wei Ye said and slowly knelt down.
Beitang Ciju quickly stood up and supported Wei Ye.
"Teacher, what are you doing?"
"Your Majesty, I am very happy." Wei Ye said, but there was no trace of emotion on his face.
Beitang Ciju frowned slightly, not because he didn't believe Wei Ye, but because from his expression, it was hard to tell that he was happy about anything.
"Ti Wanwan proposed on behalf of his father and donated 100 million stones of grain to the court. I distributed 30 million stones to the people and soldiers, and the remaining 70 million stones have been deposited in a temporary granary.
.”
"Okay!" Beitang Ciju was overjoyed and punched the back of the chair.
"Li Mo, please pass on the order and ennoble Tiyan as the 'New Marquis of Finance'. All businesses within the empire will be handed over to him. He will also confer Tiyan with the title of 'Zhisu Neishi' and rank in the palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Mo responded, turned around and left the hall.
...
...
On the city tower, the morale of the Central Army was greatly boosted after receiving the news that there was sufficient food and fodder. However, the morale of the Yan Army plummeted. Many soldiers abandoned their helmets and armor and fled back desperately. At first, only a few
, then it became dozens, and then the whole army fled.
The army was defeated like a mountain.
When Ye Jun came to see him, he asked someone to open the city gate.
The 10,000 imperial guards took off their armor, held swords in their hands, and galloped away. Like a pack of wolves chasing a flock of sheep, the imperial guards were like hungry wild wolves, and the corpses of the Yan army they killed littered the fields.
The ground outside the Beiyang Imperial City had been dyed red by the blood shed. Beitang Jun's 20,000-strong army was completely wiped out. Beitang Jun, with only a few hundred remaining soldiers, rushed into the dense forest again with a roar of wind and thunder all the way.
.
Ye Junlin held the red flame sword and pointed it diagonally at the distant sky.
"It's better to leave the remaining brave men to pursue the poor bandits! Brothers, kill!" Ye Junlin's voice was like a burst of thunder, shaking the sky and the earth. The ten thousand imperial guardsmen were excited and continued to search for the enemy.
On a hilltop somewhere, Cai Hu looked at the Imperial Guards who were gradually entering the 'ambush formation' and smiled contemptuously.
In his heart, he secretly smiled and said: As long as you enter this big formation, I guarantee that you will have thousands of troops and it will be difficult for one person to come back.
...
...
Ye Junlin marched forward indomitably, and the entire Imperial Forest Army advanced forward.
At that time, the Vietnamese army all went back home. Gu Jiantang, one man with a sword and a long gown, walked gracefully towards the imperial city. Wei Ye stood on the city tower, looking at the figure that gradually became clearer, with his whole body alert and thoughtful.
, if you are afraid.
Beitang Ciju stood side by side with him, his expression extremely puzzled.
"Teacher, Gu Jiantang has been defeated by Jun Lin's sword, why are you still so wary?" After all, he couldn't hold it back, Beitang Ciju asked.
"Your Majesty, some things cannot be taken at face value." Wei Ye said, slowly drawing out the long sword from his back. The long sword roared like wind and thunder...
