Awaken Chapter 177

No one would have thought that there would be a general attack at this point in time?

That’s a bit of a problem.

It was clear that they had already killed the city before.

Then they called off the troops.

Now that they have returned, they are going to launch a general attack without making adjustments or taking a break. To be honest, not to mention the generals are a bit headstrong.

The 800,000-strong army was also depressed.

If they wanted to attack, they could have just killed them in one go.

Why wait until tomorrow to fight again?

Why wait until tomorrow?

The generals were a little disconcerted, but it was a military order, so there was nothing they could say.

Meanwhile.

Inside the camp.

When the Marquis of Sheyang said this, the rest of the generals could not help but speak up.

“General, if we attack again tomorrow, the enemy army will definitely be on guard.”

“That would be completely detrimental to our army.”

The Marquis of Guangyang spoke up, he pointed out the situation of tomorrow’s battle directly, a general attack would definitely not work, it had just been charged once and now another one?

Most of all, if that was the case, the first charge should have been made instead of waiting for the second.

Charge the Amuta in one go and smash it, in which case, at least occupy a capital and still take your time to fight a protracted war.

You suddenly sounded the retreat, so that the army was broken, and now you want to attack in general, where are the generals willing to do that?

“General, it is true that we must not attack in general, for if we do, it will be detrimental to our war effort.”

“Please think twice, General.”

The Marquis of Lingyang spoke up, he also thought that we should not attack, after all, the morale of the soldiers was not high, plus they would definitely be on the defensive.

But the Marquis of Sheyang shook his head, he laid Xu Qingnian’s letter on the table, and then spoke, “Read it yourselves, and if you think you can convince Shouren, you can answer for yourselves.”

The Marquis of Sheyang said so.

As he laid the letter on the table, the gazes of the generals could not help but turn to it.

There was not much on the letter, just a general statement that the general would attack Amuta tomorrow, gather all the soldiers and horses, and not defend the camp.

That was all.

This was Xu Qingnian’s third letter, the third letter that made the Marquis of Sheyang’s face turn pale.

In terms of the battle, it would have been better not to call it quits today, but to use the morale of the Qilin army to bring down Amuta in one go, although the process would have been difficult and the price paid would have been enormous.

But at least you have a place to stay, you don’t have to worry about the enemy attacking you all the time.

However, now it’s time to call it quits.

All the costs you have paid before are essentially wasted, and of course if you must say so, it is a hard lesson for Amuta.

But what effect does it have on the war effort?

If you were just fighting one country, there would be nothing to say.

But you’re facing three countries, and the support of 32 countries behind them.

If you can’t fight them off in one go, it’s just too much of a loss for them, and a big one at that.

There was really some brain pain.

Now Xu Qingnian was asking everyone to attack in general, it was really hard to figure out what Xu Qingnian wanted to do.

“What exactly is Shouren trying to do here.”

Marquis Guangyang was somewhat out of temper, if this was Marquis Sheyang’s intention, he could have dissuaded it, he could have blocked it down.

But the problem was that Xu Qingnian had given the order, he couldn’t persuade down ah.

Xu Qingnian was now appointed as the Commander-in-Chief, so basically, the orders he gave could only be obeyed unless you had a very good strategy.

Otherwise, why should he listen to you?

The Marquis of Sheyang was silent.

The whole battle was now completely at Xu Qingnian’s disposal, and it was useless for him to change his tactics on the fly even if he wanted to, because there was no strategic plan laid out at all.

The logistics had not been thoroughly worked out.

The army’s morale had not been improved.

The army’s morale hadn’t been improved, including all aspects of the ploy.

And now Xu Qingnian wants everyone to launch a general attack tomorrow, who can withstand this?

If you don’t agree, you’re going against military orders.

If you say yes, you won’t feel right.

At this moment, the Marquis of Sheyang, the Marquis of Guangyang and the Marquis of Lingyang fell into silence, and there was dead silence inside the camp.

But eventually, the Marquis of Sheyang’s voice rang out.

“This Marquis should ask Shouren, he should not be so impulsive, perhaps he has hidden a hand.”

The Marquis of Sheyang sighed, it wasn’t that he didn’t trust Xu Qingnian, it was that Xu Qingnian’s method of battle was not told to everyone at all ah, verbally saying that he would take Tang in five days?

How can you do that?

The fact that he couldn’t even take an Amuta, how could he take Tang?

Therefore, all of us were a bit depressed and planned to talk to Xu Qingnian.

Use the heavenly decree to communicate.

And at the same time.

Amuta’s royal palace.

The emissaries from Tang and Tuliang had arrived.

As Amuta had suffered such a tragic battle, it was only natural that the emissaries of the two countries should be called in to discuss countermeasures.

Of course, they said they were discussing countermeasures, but in fact it was a question of a*sistance.

Inside the royal palace.

King Amuta sat on the king’s chair, and he looked calmly at the Tang and Tullian emissaries and said.

“In this battle, my Amuta generals died close to 60,000 and were seriously injured in countless numbers.”

“This is still a battle of defending the city, if not for the attack on the left and right flanks of the Great Wei Qilin Army, I am afraid that in less than two hours, the Great Wei Qilin Army would have killed my king’s palace.”

“Right now, the Great Wei Qilin Army is already eyeing my Amuta, if the two countries do not a*sist, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the Amuta Palace will be occupied by the Qilin Army.”

“Therefore, I hope that the two countries will increase their reinforcements and come to the aid of my Amuta.”

The king of Amuta spoke up and said what he wanted.

The amba*sador from the Kingdom of Tuliang was simple enough to look at the king of Amuta and said.

“Please rest a*sured, Your Majesty, that Tuliang and Amuta are one in the same, and the king of the country has already promised to a*sist with forty percent of the troops to help Amuta hold the fort.”

The amba*sador from the Kingdom of Tuliang said so, and his reply satisfied the King of Amuta, but of course he understood that the main reason why Tuliang was so generous was that Tuliang was on his left rear, and if Amuta was lost, Tuliang would also be in trouble, especially in the piece of food transportation.

The relationship between the two countries could well be described as one of a cold relationship between lips and teeth.

But the Tang envoy frowned slightly.

“Your Majesty, the Tang Empire is willing to a*sist 50,000 troops to help Amuta withstand the difficulties.”

He said so.

Offering to support 50,000 troops.

But as soon as this was said, King Amuta instantly stood up, his gaze cold and terrifying as it fell on the Tang emissary.

“Fifty thousand? It is not that my king despises Tang, can 50,000 Tang troops beat 10,000 Qilin troops?”

“Tuliang is willing to aid 40%, while Tang is only willing to aid 50,000? Don’t you think Tang is a bit excessive?”

“Does it mean that the Tang Kingdom is hoping that my Amuta will be destroyed?”

King Amuta was really a little angry.

He had worked so hard to defend himself against the enemy, but he didn’t expect the Tang Kingdom to be so stingy?

The king of the Tang kingdom could not spare his own country’s soldiers and let other countries’ generals charge into battle and be disliked by a hundred countries.

He was different, he was the king, the king of Amuta, and he did not care for this. He could give the lives of his own country’s generals, but he would certainly not be able to defeat the Great Wei Qilin Army with his own forces alone.

That was why he demanded a*sistance. In this great battle, he lost close to 60,000 troops, what a concept!

In the battle to defend the city, 60,000 troops were killed in battle.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Tuliang and Tang were attacking from the left and right, making the Second Army of the Great Wei somewhat fearful, otherwise it is highly likely that Amuta would have been destroyed today.

He had already paid a high price and made clear his conviction that he would not betray the Allies.

But to my surprise, the allies would not help him?

What else can we do?

“Your Majesty, please calm your anger.”

“The Kingdom of Tang has no such intention.”

“The main reason is that the king is worried that the Great Wei is only pretending to storm Amuta, but actually wants to attack our Tang Kingdom.”

So said the Tang messenger.

But as soon as the words were said, the King of Amuta was outright furious.

“Faking an attack on Amuta?”

“Using the blood of tens of thousands of warriors, just to put on a show? Do you think the Lone King will believe you?”

It wasn’t that King Amuta didn’t believe Tang, but that the Great Wei Qilin Army used tens of thousands of lives just to put on a show?

If that was really the case, then this Xu Qingnian was really too ruthless.

“Soldiers are not afraid of deception, Your Majesty.”

The emissary of the Tang Kingdom continued to speak.

But he wanted to say something else, but was directly interrupted by King Amuta.

“Cut the crap with me.”

“Great Wei Qilin Army, even if that is really what you think, it will take time to travel from Amuta to Tang, right?”

“During this time, you Tang can completely think of ways to resist, I’m not talking about anything else, with Tang’s defensive capabilities.”

“An army of nine hundred thousand would not necessarily be able to take Tang even if they attacked for ten days.”

“And with an army of nine hundred thousand, it would only take one day to trample down Amuta.”

“If once we enter into a bloody battle and the Great Wei Qilin Army defies all odds, Amuta will not be able to sustain for long at all, what aid or no aid, do I need your support when my country is destroyed?”

King Amuta said word for word.

He had done what he had to do, he couldn’t keep making himself pay, could he?

If that were the case, even if he held back Great Wei, what would be the point?

Your own country perished and everyone made a bloody profit?

Sorry, but the Lone King, though valiant, is no fool.

Faced with King Amuta’s forcefulness, the Tang emissary was about to say something else when, out of the blue, a voice rang out.

“Battle report!”

“Word has come from the Great Wei Qilin Army that tomorrow, 800,000 troops will abandon their main camp and launch a general attack on our country.”

As this voice rang out.

Inside the palace, the faces of all the people changed at once.

King Amuta, in particular, looked at the Tang messenger and roared.

“Do you hear me?”

“Eight hundred thousand troops will arrive tomorrow for a general attack on the city of Lone.”

“If Tang does not give a*sistance, I will immediately evacuate all my generals, or at worst, go into hiding and leave all resources to the Great Wei Qilin Army.”

“I will then see whether the Tullian Kingdom will be destroyed first, or you and the Tang Kingdom will be destroyed first.”

King Amuta indeed had nothing more to say.

At this point in time, if the Tang Kingdom did not give support, then we would all be finished together.

He left the capital to others, including other cities, and ran away with his own people, saying that he had come to their aid, and they would be happy to do so.

Who wouldn’t want an ally to garrison their army?

If Tang agrees, we can still sit down and talk, but if Tang does not agree, then no problem.

But if Tang does not agree, then no problem, just turn the table, it’s not like you don’t dare.

Hearing these words from King Amuta, the Tang emissary’s face looked a bit uncomfortable. He thought for a while and finally gave a reply.

“Your Majesty, I will go back and inform the king of the country that no matter what, I will obtain 150,000 troops for the king.”

This was the highest authority of the Tang emissary, 150,000 troops.

But King Amuta shook his head and said.

“Three hundred thousand! The aid of the troops of the twenty-five kingdoms, all of them in your Tang kingdom, the lone king needs three hundred thousand troops to be stationed for five days at the very least! After five days, three hundred thousand troops can go back again!”

King Amuta was also ruthless, asking for 300,000 directly, which was equivalent to fifty percent of Tang’s national strength.

“Your Majesty!”

The Tang messenger continued to speak, but unfortunately, King Amuta directly waved his hand and said.

“Say no more, let it be so, three hundred thousand, if Tang does not give a*sistance before tomorrow’s ugly hour, then the lone king can guarantee that the Great Wei Qilin Army will gain the city without having to attack it.”

King Amuta was very direct and he was resolute.

There was no need to talk so much nonsense to them.

Three hundred thousand troops, give it or leave it, anyway the sky is falling and there is a tall man to cover it, if Tang thinks they have that ability, then come on.

“Allow me to go back and ask!”

The Tang emissary could already see that King Amuta was bound to get it.

Thinking of this, he could not help but let out a long sigh, but thought nothing more of it and simply excused himself.

As the Tang emissary left, King Amuta could not help but curse coldly.

“No one from the Middle Kingdom is good, when the barbarians come out, they will be trampled underfoot.”

Clearly he was indeed angry and had developed a huge dislike for this allied army.

But he didn’t think much of it, and anyway there was still plenty of time left for the Tang, five hours to go.

If not, he was as good as his word.

And at the same time.

Great Wei Dynasty.

Inside the Hall of Wenhua.

As a battle report rang out, it caused the Hall of Mandarin to become quieter than ever.

“Great Wei’s Second Army reports that 500,000 troops have attacked the capital of Amuta and have broken through the city! However, the left and right flanks were blocked by Tuliang and Tang, so that the troops were called off.”

“In this battle, 30,000 were killed in battle and 50,000 were seriously injured.”

When this information appeared, there was hardly any sound left in the hall.

Thirty thousand killed in battle.

Fifty thousand seriously wounded.

What kind of cost was that?

If there were a few more trips, the Qilin Army would be wiped out.

Although they knew that war was cruel, the hearts of the people were still saddened by the 30,000 soldiers who had died in battle.

Thirty thousand, thirty thousand lives.

All at once, the nine princes and dozens of lords, including the Minister of War, came to the sand table and began to study the battle in earnest.

If they couldn’t think of any more solutions, it would be extremely unfavourable for Great Wei.

But at that moment, a second battle report rang out.

“Report!”

“The Marquis of Sheyang requests instructions on whether to a*semble all the generals tomorrow for a general attack on the capital of Amuta.”

The voice rang out.

The crowd in the Great Hall was once again silent.

And Xu Qingnian’s voice was the first to give a response.

“Yes!”

When they heard Xu Qingnian give the order for a general attack, the crowd was stunned.

Several of the Marquis were almost the first to remind Xu Qingnian that he had already made a general attack and had not taken it down, so he could not continue the general attack.

Otherwise, it would be extremely detrimental to the situation.

Nothing had been taken care of in the logistics camp, and if they lost again or were held back, then the 900,000-strong army would be in trouble.

Only the voices of these liege lords had just finished speaking.

Duke An’s gaze fell dead on Tang, and he couldn’t help but look at Xu Qingnian and say.

“Shouren, you want to attack Amuta under false pretenses, but in reality, you want to take down the Tang Kingdom, right?”

Duke An was worthy of being the head of the state and saw through Xu Qingnian’s thoughts at a glance.

Hearing this, the crowd was then relieved, they were really afraid that Xu Qingnian would let the 900,000-strong army impact just for the sake of fighting for breath.

Of course, there was no longer a 900,000-strong army, it was only 800,000 at full strength.

When Lord An said this, the crowd turned their attention to the sand table.

Zhou Yan, the Minister of War, also immediately spoke up.

“This is a good plan, but the problem is that Tang is even more difficult to open than the Amuta gates, even if it is a surprise attack, I’m afraid it will only be a vicious battle.”

Zhou Yan instantly judged that the battle was problematic.

A surprise attack on Tang was good, and the idea was well planned.

But the problem is, Tang is not weak, so it doesn’t make much sense for you to raid.

You would have to fight for at least three days just for one country gate.

What will happen in those three days?

On the first day, Tang will indeed have some hand to mouth, but the battle to defend the city will last a day with no problem at all, depleting the Qilin army in large numbers.

And Tuliang and Amuta will also send reinforcements at the first opportunity, leaving the Great Wei Kirin Army with an enemy on its back.

On the second day, once they occupy the scorch, the countries will immediately send a steady stream of warriors to come to their aid, and if a thousand people die on the Tang side, they will make up a thousand.

And if a thousand of them died on the Tang side, they would send a thousand more.

Because there is no waiting list to speak of, and even if they directly end your base camp, you won’t even have a place to go back to rest and recuperate.

So Zhou Yan did not agree with this tactic.

“Shouren, do you have another plan?”

Duke An also thought of this, but the first thing he did was to look at Xu Qingnian and ask so.

“En.”

Xu Qingnian nodded his head.

And then took a deep breath and spoke.

“Monitor Tang on all fronts and see if Tang aids Amuta.”

“Have the Marquis of Sheyang give information by heavenly decree at the first opportunity, without delay.”

“And then monitor whether Tang’s reinforcements have arrived? Also have the Marquis of Sheyang give information at the first opportunity.”

Xu Qingnian spoke up, and he said so.

“As ordered!”

The latter immediately spoke, and then when the messenger left, Xu Qingnian looked to the crowd and said.

“Gentlemen!”

“Xu Mou is not trying to feign an attack on Amuta!”

“Xu Mou’s plan is to destroy three kingdoms in one day!”

“But I’m sorry that I can’t say what’s involved, but tomorrow at the 11th hour, you can wait for the battle report.”

Xu Qingnian spoke, his words confident, his gaze locked on Tang, Amuta, and Tuliang.

He was not going to pretend to attack Amuta, he was going to destroy the three kingdoms, not even for one more hour in one day.

Sure enough, with Xu Qingnian’s confidence, the crowd was utterly dumbfounded.

They knew that Xu Qingnian was fierce and talented, but they couldn’t believe that Xu Qingnian was so confident.

Destroying three countries in one day?

How can you do that?

Now you can’t even defeat an Amuta and you want to destroy three countries? This is not arrogance anymore, this is dreaming, right?

But when these words came out of Xu Qingnian’s mouth, the crowd inexplicably believed them.

“Shouren!”

“No matter what, I support you.”

“En, we also support you.”

“Since you have this kind of confidence, then I will not say much more.”

The crowd no longer spoke, they quietly waited for the result, Xu Qingnian had said his words to this extent, what else do you have to say?

So be it.

Four hours later.

It was already the midnight hour.

A heavenly decree appeared in Xu Qingnian’s hand, a message from the Marquis of Sheyang.

“Kai, the Tang Kingdom has aided 300,000 troops in the capital of Amuta.”

“Within the Tang Kingdom, reinforcements from more than twenty countries have arrived.”

“Please order the Lord Commander!”

This was the intelligence war message from the Marquis of Sheyang.

Xu Qingnian didn’t have any nonsense and directly wrote up his real plan.

“Send 400,000 troops, 30 miles away from Amuta, and stand scattered to create a false impression, while the rest of the 400,000 troops, with strips of white cloth wrapped around the top of their left arms, will ambush 30 miles outside the gates of the Tang Kingdom, and at five minutes past dawn, the entire army will kill the Tang Kingdom.”

“The 400,000 troops outside Amuta, each with 200,000 troops, led by Marquis Lin Yang and Marquis Guang Yang, will enter the capital of Amuta and the capital of Tuliang, and at five o’clock in the morning, kill the enemy’s country to raise the prestige of the Great Wei and to purify the prestige of our Qilin Army.”

“Remember, those who wrap the cloth will not be killed, the rest will be killed on sight.”

The heavenly decree intelligence burned.

The next moment.

Far away in the sky, in the Second Army camp.

When Marquis Sheyang received Xu Qingnian’s heavenly decree, the first thing he felt was something odd.

It was extremely odd.

Three hundred thousand troops were thirty miles away from each other at Amuta, creating the illusion of attacking the Tang Kingdom.

This tactic he understood.

But the problem was, this tactic was useless. 400,000 troops would definitely not be able to break through the gates of the Tang Kingdom.

As for the remaining 400,000 troops, the Marquis of Guangyang and the Marquis of Lingyang would lead 200,000 troops to break through the gates of Amuta and Tuliang?

This is even more impossible.

Yesterday, 500,000 troops broke through the gates, how can 200,000 break through today?

And with 300,000 troops aided by Tang, it would be even more difficult to break through.

What he found most odd was why the white cloth?

Wait!

At this very moment, the Marquis of Sheyang suddenly thought of something, and he suddenly froze in place.

Completely and utterly frozen.

“General Left, General Right, come quickly!”

The next moment, the Marquis of Sheyang’s voice trembled and said.

At that moment, Marquis Guangyang and Marquis Lingyang entered the tent, and they looked at Marquis Sheyang with curiosity, while their eyes also fell on this heavenly decree.

Just for a moment, Marquis Guangyang could not help but frown and said.

“How is this possible!”

“Two hundred thousand, how can it be possible to open the gates of the country!”

This was the first reaction of the Marquis of Guangyang.

And after the Marquis of Lin Yang saw the expression on the Marquis of Sheyang’s face, suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something as well, and his face suddenly changed.

It was as if he had thought of something.

And at this moment, the Marquis of Shooting Sun could not help but swallow his saliva and said.

“I finally know what Shouren is really doing!”

“This battle, if it really works out, Shouren is going to seal the gods.”

Marquis Shouyang had a feeling of his scalp tingling.

Truly, in all his years in the army and all the battles he had fought, he had never seen that a man could have such a mind.

There were only a few factors in fighting a war.

Strength of troops! Food and provisions! Attack and defence! Strategy!

Of these, the first three are the most important, and for such things as stratagems, you must have a certain amount of troops before you can use them.

Otherwise, if you were given a thousand iron hors*men to face an army of 100,000, how would you fight?

It’s just like now, both sides have the same number of troops, but the fight is extremely scorching.

Even the Great Wei Qilin Army was at a disadvantage everywhere, not to mention the destruction of the country in five days, even if it was 50 days, it was estimated that they would not be able to break a city.

But Xu Qingnian’s ploy made him feel really scared and really shocked.

“Fortunately, Shouren is a son of our Great Wei, otherwise, Great Wei would only be ……. afraid to face such an enemy.”

Marquis Linyang also gradually understood Xu Qingnian’s plan.

Only the Marquis of Guangyang was a little depressed.

“What are you guys saying again? Why can’t I understand a single word?”

He really couldn’t understand some of it.

“It’s alright, Marquis Guangyang, remember, once the dawn hour arrives, no matter what happens, go straight to the Clash of Clans gate, remember, no matter what happens, kill all the way, but there is one more thing you have to remember.”

“Pa*s the order down, those with white cloth strips wrapped around their arms, don’t kill them, those without, kill them all, got it?”

The Marquis of Sheyang had no time to explain to him, he immediately walked out and summoned a hundred generals to put this matter into practice, making sure that all the generals did it properly.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome to kill one of their own by mistake.

Five minutes past midnight.

Inside the Second Army camp, all the white tents were destroyed, torn down into a strip of white cloth and wrapped around their arms.

After dawn, everyone knew it was a big battle, and naturally the crowd was in a somewhat tense mood.

But they were not afraid of the battle, what they were mainly depressed about was that they had been unable to capture a city gate for a long time and had died in vain.

No one wants to die for nothing, but they have nothing to say when they die under the enemy’s sword, because they are not as good as the others.

Therefore, there is already resentment within the Qilin army, but this resentment has not yet exploded, but if the attack does not continue for a long time, they will probably be tired of fighting.

Two minutes past the hour of darkness.

The 400,000-strong army appeared fifty miles away from Amuta’s gates, occupying one hill after another, so densely packed that a glance at them covered the sky.

Amuta’s spies, who had already seen everything clearly, were the first to report.

In the dark, the 400,000-strong army, however, was quietly heading towards Tang to kill them.

The Qilin army was somewhat curious, wondering why they were heading for Tang, but the whole army was still very quiet, and although there were doubts in their hearts, none of them bothered to ask.

It was not the turn of a small soldier to discuss this kind of war.

It was two minutes past dawn.

The 400,000-strong army had all a*sembled.

The army slowly pressed closer to the front.

Three minutes past dawn.

Only twenty-five miles from the Tang capital.

Four minutes past dawn.

Only twenty miles from the Tang capital.

Five minutes past dawn.

Only fifteen miles from the Tang capital.

At this moment.

The sound of drums suddenly sounded, and the Marquis of Sheyang, riding an extremely fierce and fierce horse, pointed his sword at the Tang capital and roared.

“All troops, listen to the order!”

“Kill!”

The roar was like thunder and spread throughout the four hundred thousand troops.

Almost instantly, the 400,000-strong army had no qualms and went straight towards the Tang capital to kill.

And it was at this moment.

On top of the walls of the Tang capital, 30,000 archers had been waiting for a long time.

Many large stone throwers had also been prepared for a long time.

The Tang generals, it seemed, had expected the Great Wei to make a surprise attack.

In fact, when the Great Wei Qilin army appeared, information had already come from within the Tang king’s palace.

In the royal palace.

The King of Tang sat in the main hall, his eyes full of contempt and disdain.

The Minister of War, Lin Qiu, even let out a loud laugh.

“I thought this Xu Qingnian had some kind of ability? Is that all he is? You want to raid Tang? Do you think Tang is a country of tomatoes? How ridiculous!”

The Minister of War sneered at Xu Qingnian.

And the Prince of Tang followed and slowly spoke.

“If we follow the advice of the Minister of War, we will be able to wipe out at least 200,000 enemies in this battle.”

The Prince of Tang said so, and his face was full of smiles.

“The Prince is over-complimented, just dealing with a mere Xu Qingnian, it is not clever to talk about.”

“My humble servant has deployed 100,000 troops on both flanks of the battlefield, as long as the Great Wei Qilin Army retreats, these 100,000 troops will beat the dogs in the water.”

“Great Wei, Great Wei, they are really stupid to let a scholar command the battlefield.”

“This Xu Qingnian, he thinks of our Tang Kingdom as too weak, just the outer city, it would take him at least five days to invade, and it’s not even certain.”

“Ignorant little boy, and a great talent of the ten thousand ages? Ten thousand ancient fools is more like it.”

Lin Qiu, the Minister of War, said with unparalleled confidence.

And the entire hall could not help but laugh loudly, mocking Xu Qingnian.

But just at this moment.

A voice suddenly rang out.

“Report!”

“It’s not good!”

“The city gates have broken open!”

The Great Wei Qilin Army has killed its way into the outer city?”

As this voice rang out, a deathly silence instantly fell within the great hall.

Silence!

Silence!

Silence!

A dead silence.

The Tang kingdom’s eyes were even wider, and the first time he stood up, but he didn’t know what to say.

“Lying about the military! You are lying about the military!”

“The Great Wei Kirin Army should not have reached under the outer city gates yet, 30,000 archers, 150 stone throwers, and all kinds of kerosene warfare weapons, can’t they even delay for an hour?”

Lin Qiu let out a roar, thinking that the other side had lied about the army.

It was impossible.

It was completely impossible.

How could the 30,000 archers on the city walls, shooting even one arrow in ten breaths, hinder the progress of the Great Wei Qilin Army, and then attack the city gates? Wasn’t this a joke?

“Lord Shang Shu!”

“My subordinate did not lie about the military situation.”

“It’s the reinforcements, the Ha, Zhang, Peng, Vasai, and the Red Dragon, who are good at riding and shooting, have mutinied, and 30,000 archers, who are on the verge of turning back.”

“All the city gates are wide open, our army is being slaughtered, the Great Wei Qilin army has killed in, it’s simply impossible to stop it.”

The latter’s voice trembled as he stated the root cause.

“Mutiny!”

“Why have they mutinied?”

“Why have they mutinied?”

“That’s impossible, that’s impossible, they can’t have mutinied.”

“Why? Why would they defect? It’s death to mutiny, it’s death to surrender to the Great Wei.”

The Tang Ministry of War’s Shang Shu’s voice trembled, his face instantly pale with disbelief at all this.

“Shang Shu Lin, defend quickly, the outer city has been breached, the inner city must be defended, otherwise we are all doomed.”

Xu Mao, Tang’s Minister of Rites, also changed his face, if this Great Wei Qilin Army broke the city, then his little life would be lost too ah.

Hearing these words, Lin Qiu suddenly came back to his senses, he took a deep breath and said.

“Blockade the inner city, all foreign reinforcements, expel them all, expel them all out.”

Lin Qiu could no longer believe these reinforcements completely.

At the same time, he was also curious as to why this group of reinforcements would turn back on their heels? Didn’t they have nothing better to do than to eat?

Great Wei did not accept surrendered troops, so why would they do this?

And just at this moment, Xu Mao, the Minister of Rites, suddenly exclaimed.

“I get it, I get it.”

“Xu Qingnian is not trying to recruit Tang at all.”

“Xu Qingnian is trying to recruit these tribal states, he is doing it on purpose, he knows that our Tang Kingdom will definitely go to negotiate and will definitely make unreasonable demands.”

“Creating the illusion that the Great Wei army was angry, and then Xu Qingnian took the initiative to recruit these tribes, who had few soldiers, yet were key soldiers in defending the city.”

“Zhang Guo, Peng, Ha, Wasi and Red Dragon tribes, these are all good archers and in our eyes, they are the first troops to die.”

“But in Xu Qingnian’s eyes, they can turn the tide of battle, Great Wei will not accept surrender, but Great Wei can take the initiative to invite surrender.”

“Xu Qingnian, you are really wicked, you are really wicked.”

At this moment, Xu Mao had completely figured out, and completely figured out why someone would betray.

Inviting the Tang nation to settle down seemed to be a normal thing in everyone’s eyes.

It was also a normal thing in the eyes of everyone that Tang refused.

And when Great Wei was rejected by Tang, it seemed to everyone that Great Wei must have been furious and hated to slaughter everyone in Tang.

It was also at this time that Great Wei was willing to take the initiative to recruit some small tribes and nations, which could not make any impact on Great Wei and which already regretted being enemies of Great Wei.

Even if they won, they would have nothing to gain, but now Wei was giving them a chance to change their ways, so why not?

Moreover, they are the fodder for the countries to use as cannon fodder, to put it bluntly, they are the ones who will die in front of them, after all, these countries are not strong.

But these are the same countries that are not strong enough to guard the gates, because they are the ones who are going to die, and everyone is happy to do so, so that they don’t have to be the first ones to die.

Xu Qingnian collected such insignificant little tribes and made them the ones to turn the whole war around.

It was a move that they hadn’t even thought of, ah.

Of course the main point was still one.

Xu Qingnian was acting and acting like it, he had the Great Wei Qilin Army charge and take a big loss under the gates of the Amuta Kingdom, making everyone think that he was just a scholarly man who talked about war on paper.

So it made people overlook these details.

And most importantly, Great Wei slaughtered the tombs and did not accept surrender.

What’s more, it paralysed all the countries, making them think that everyone would not surrender, after all, Great Wei would not accept surrender.

It was because of this that all the nations overlooked one fatal detail.

Great Wei does not accept surrender.

But Great Wei could have taken the initiative to recruit surrender.

When Tang was recruited to surrender, everyone only thought that Great Wei did not want to make a fearless sacrifice, but what they did not expect was that everything was a sham, all of it.

Xu Qingnian! This step had been thought of from the time of the attack on the tombs.

Ruthless!

Ruthless!

Ruthless!

How ruthless!

The crowd took a deep breath, the Minister of War was red in the face at this moment, what he said just now was vivid in his mind, a scholar whom he had variously despised, but now he was playing himself into the palm of his hand ah.

And at this moment.

Not only were they shocked.

The Qilin army was also shocked.

They had started their charge with resentment as 30,000 archers stood above, waiting to get themselves killed.

This general attack was likely to be another defeat.

But what they didn’t expect was that, all the way to the gates, the archers up there wouldn’t shoot?

More than that, when they arrived at the gates, the gates actually opened and a group of foreign warriors, wrapped in white cloth like them, shouted in the extremely broken Great Wei language.

“We, by order of Lord Xu.”

“To a*sist you all in putting down the rebellion against the Tang Kingdom.”

When the voice rang out, the 400,000 generals were dumbfounded.

It was expected to be a vicious battle.

But what they hadn’t expected was that Xu Qingnian had bought off the enemy army and opened the gates of the country on his own initiative?

It was only almost in a flash that the generals came back to their senses, and then one by one, they rushed into the Tang country, war swords in their hands, without any hesitation, and went towards the enemy army to kill them.

Only the arms were not wrapped in white cloth, and they killed on sight.

“Kill!”

“Brothers, kill to the death.”

“Kill!”

The shouts of killing were deafening.

And the rebels, who had been recruited, were shouting.

“All four gates of the city are wide open, generals, come in quickly through the other gates, attack on all sides and kill all these disloyal and unrighteous people.”

The foreigners informed the crowd that they should not just enter through this gate, but that all the other gates were open.

As soon as this was said, a number of generals scattered their troops and poured in from all sides.

The true iron-blooded might of the Great Wei Qilin Army exploded at this moment.

Each and every one of the Great Wei Kirin Army was fierce and brave, and under their battle swords, a head fell to the ground.

The Tang army would have been able to stop it, but the problem was that no one had expected that what was originally a defensive battle would turn directly into a battle of engagement.

This sudden fallout scared them out of their wits for a moment.

The scene was almost lopsided.

The Tang army and other a*sisting generals were killed in disbelief, and the 400,000-strong Qilin army was killed in an invincible stance.

The battle losses on both sides also showed an extremely frightening ratio.

For from the time they entered until now, only one Qilin army had been wounded, or trampled by their own men.

The rest did not die.

Because the other side had no morale at all, they were being slaughtered in a one-sided manner.

“Red Dragon Clan, your whole family shall not die.”

‘”You are truly beasts, falling back on the battlefield, you shall not have a good death.”

“Great Wei will not accept surrender, you have been deceived by Great Wei.”

Those voices full of anger and helplessness rang out, who would have thought that a battle that was supposed to be a protracted battle and a battle to attack and defend the city would turn into a head-to-head battle?

A head-on battle.

The 400,000-strong Qilin army could fight against the two million Tang army.

The chances of winning are even greater.

And the Tang Empire has two million troops?

Including all kinds of reinforcements and allies, it only adds up to 1.5 million, and 300,000 were sent away earlier.

How can they fight?

How could we fight?

“All troops, listen to the order!”

“Within an hour, take the outer city, gather 100,000 troops and head for the inner city, don’t let them get defensive.”

When he saw that the battle was going well, the Marquis of Shuyang was most excited, he was no longer satisfied with taking an outer city.

He wanted to take both the inner and outer city, and directly beat the capital of the Tang Kingdom out of existence.

But just as he finished saying this, some foreigners on blazing horses quickly came to the Marquis of Sheyang, full of excitement, and said.

“No, no, there are our own people inside the inner city as well.”

“Lord Xu has already made the arrangements.”

He opened his mouth and spoke in a mouthful of Great Wei, causing the Marquis of Sheyang to stare.

The inner city was all arranged?

The Marquis of Sheyang froze.

“If the procession is over, I’m only afraid that the interior of Tang will be the first to expel the foreign reinforcements, so it will still be difficult to attack then.”

The Marquis of Sheyang frowned, it was good that Xu Qingnian had turned against these foreigners, but the problem was that the Tang kingdom would definitely expel these allied troops now.

Once the country’s gates were blocked, it would be a missed opportunity.

And the latter waved his hand and explained somewhat anxiously.

“No, no, no, you misunderstood, Marquis of Sheyang, what the sinful minister meant was that within the Tang State, there were also people of their own!”

The other party explained seriously.

Marquis of Sheyang: “???”

At this moment, the Marquis of Sheyang froze.

Xu Qingnian was so fierce?

Even the people of Tang had turned against him?

Do you want to be so F**king fierce?

Brother Shouren!
