Chapter 664 Seizing the City
At night, military camps were built inside the Golden City of the Dayu Kingdom, and two hundred thousand Dayu soldiers lived there.
Zong Wenfu looked at the Daqian military camp outside the city, feeling unwilling.
Opposite him was Lin Xiaofan, the man who had defeated him twice in a row.
Now he has an army of 200,000 soldiers under his command. Although the morale of the troops is not united, he has hope that they can recover and fight Lin Xiaofan again.
Over the years, Lin Xiaofan has almost become a demon in his heart.
He wanted to win, wanted to prove himself with a fight.
But unfortunately, the Sirius King gave him a death order, only allowing him to defend the city and not attack.
"Hey."
Zong Wenfu sighed slightly, thinking that there would definitely be opportunities in the future.
Suddenly, a flame appeared and disappeared behind him.
He turned around and saw that the granary was on fire.
How is it possible? Aren't there only troops in Jincheng? And the city is heavily guarded, so no one can sneak in.
I remember there were a thousand people guarding the granary. Even if it was captured, at least there should be some movement, right?
However, he had been a general for many years and understood the reason of the matter immediately.
There was a traitor in the military camp, and he was placed in charge of guarding the granary.
The fire in the granary has already started, and even if it is put out, not much can be saved.
The morale of this 200,000-strong army would probably be destroyed if food were cut off for a day or two.
In this battle, he had already lost completely before the two soldiers even came into contact.
"The food is on fire, put it out!"
"Go!"
Several generals around also noticed something was wrong and shouted orders to the soldiers.
But Zong Wenfu's vision became increasingly blurred.
"puff!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
"General!"
"Send to the military doctor quickly!"
The entire Jincheng fell into chaos.
On the second day, the soldiers were covered in dust and had some food and fodder that they had barely rescued in front of them.
They have 200,000 mouths to feed. How long can they last with just this little food?
The grain route had been blocked long ago and food could not be delivered.
Even if it could be delivered, there would be no more food delivered here in a short period of time.
Can this city be defended?
Everyone had a positive answer in their hearts.
If they can’t defend the city, will the Sirius Kingdom let them go?
Definitely not.
If the Tianlang Kingdom was merciful, they would not have massacred their cities so many times when they conquered their homes.
Zong Wenfu was unconscious on the hospital bed for a whole night and finally woke up.
Two generals stood aside.
"General Zong, you finally woke up!"
A burly and strong general came forward, his face full of surprise.
"Zhang Cheng."
Zong Wenfu called out the other person's name.
"The end will be here."
Zhang Cheng bowed.
"Have you hated me for a long time?"
Zong Wenfu looked at the man in front of him who was always innocent and casual, and burst out laughing.
"I should have thought of it earlier. How could an ordinary person improve his martial arts so quickly? How could he be promoted to a general commanding tens of thousands of people in just three years?"
Zong Wenfu seemed to be talking to himself.
"Because of your brother, Yuanwu."
The joy on Zhang Cheng's face disappeared, replaced by viciousness.
Half of the people near the tent are his men.
The enemy who killed his entire family is now at his mercy.
When Zong Wenfu heard this, he recalled a familiar face.
That year, he was a beggar. When he was about to starve to death, he was picked up by someone and became Yuanwu's slave.
The burly and honest young man treated him, a worthless person, as a brother.
Later, he was killed by his enemies and was about to die. It was that burly and honest young man who risked his family being confiscated and went to the emperor in the middle of the night to plead for him, and finally gave him a chance to live.
The two of them fought all over the world and conquered three kingdoms, but fate was not always on their side.
Yuan Wu died on the battlefield.
To be honest, perhaps because he was used to killing people, he didn't feel very sad at that time, but just felt that it was a bit boring to do.
But every time he fought, every time he won, every time he drank, every time he took a walk, he always thought of that honest boy in his heart.
His thoughts returned to reality, and Zhang Cheng's face gradually overlapped with Yuan Wu's.
The two are only similar in body shape and personality, but their facial features are completely different.
But just this three-point similarity made it easy for him to let down his guard.
No wonder, no wonder!
Sadness flashed across Zong Wenfu's face.
"you win."
"Pfft!"
The blade scratched Zong Wenfu's neck and his head fell to the ground.
Outside, shouts and screams were heard, but they faded away after a short while.
Zhang Cheng wrapped Zong Wenfu's head in cloth and walked all the way to the front of the army.
"General Zhang, how is the general doing? Is he awake?"
Several generals came up hurriedly to ask.
What they need most now is a backbone who can give orders.
Zhang Cheng's eyes swept over several people, and his long sword suddenly came out of its sheath. Before they could react, a head fell to the ground.
Countless arrows shot from a distance, and two more generals fell to the ground.
The people around hurriedly took a few steps back, all feeling confused.
The soldiers did not move because they had not received orders.
Zhang Cheng glanced at the crowd, threw the cloth in his hand to the ground, and a head rolled out.
A team of ten thousand people walked out of the army and stood silently behind Zhang Cheng.
Then several generals stepped out from the army, each leading several thousand men.
"Zong Wenfu is dead. I killed him. All the people from Tianlang Country are dead. I also ordered them to be killed."
Zhang Cheng's voice echoed in the training ground.
"Everyone, you should all know how many of our compatriots he killed. The reason we are gathered here today is only because of the tyranny of the Tianlang Nation."
"Are you willing to be slaves of a conquered nation for the rest of your life? Are you willing to let the Tianlang Nation commit crimes in our homeland? Are you willing to just go back and let others slaughter you?"
"The Tianlang Nation killed my parents and humiliated my family. I regard them as my lifelong enemy. Today, if you want to stay and take revenge with me, then step forward. If you want to return home and resume your old ways, then leave. I will never stop you."
"But you have to think clearly. Will the Sirius Country attack us again? Will our home be occupied again?"
"If you want to go back to the Tianlang Kingdom to report, I won't stop you. Go ahead. But you should think about whether the Tianlang Kingdom will spare your lives."
"Of course, if you want to fight me and avenge Zong Wenfu and others, you can come."
As the messenger moved around, Zhang Cheng's words spread throughout the army.
As soon as the words fell, nearly a thousand soldiers walked out and came behind Zhang Cheng, their faces full of confusion.
They were spies planted by Lin Xiaofan. It took a lot of effort from the beginning of training to infiltrating the army.
But now, nothing has been done and the city is broken?
Soldiers walked out one by one and joined the team behind Zong Wenfu.
Of course, some people just left.
Looking at the huge army behind him, Zhang Cheng said to his guards:
"Head count."
Almost all the people who came came in groups of ten and fifteen, so it was easier to count them. After a while, the guards came back.
"A total of 163,541 people."
"Open the city gates and let the army outside in."
Zhang Cheng spoke.
