The northern border of Xuanyue Empire, Yueliang City!
This is an important military-controlled town in the north of the Xuanyue Empire. The army responsible for controlling Yueliang City is called the Jing Yu Army. It is the direct iron army of the new Xuanyue Kingdom Lord Xuan Jing. Its combat effectiveness may have exceeded the Xuan Iron Army controlled by Xuan Jiuding.
However, although Yueliang City is a military city, due to Xuan Yue's previous leader Xuan Haoran's hard work and hard work, Xuan Yue's national power is rising, and not many people dare to easily provoke it.
Therefore, in the past decades or hundreds of years, the northern countries have not come to challenge the majesty of the Xuanyue Empire, which made the Jing Yu troops guarding Yue Liang City somewhat relaxed.
Above the north gate of Yueliang City, a figure was walking like a dragon and a tiger. When he walked in front of a soldier whose eyes were slightly closed and seemed to be dozing, he couldn't help but become furious.
Snap!
A loud slap in the face immediately woke up the drowsy soldier. When he saw who it was, his body suddenly became weak with fear.
"Commander Lin Hao, my subordinates have been convicted!"
Does this Jing Yu Army soldier know who he is in front of him? He is a figure who never abandons the current leader of the country when he is in dire straits, and finally rushes into the Xuanyue Palace to turn the tide and expel the former leader Xuan Jiuding. Naturally, he is
Don't dare to neglect at all.
It turned out that the man who walked up to the city wall to patrol was none other than Lin Hao, the capital commander whom Yun Xiao had met once when he was passing through Yueliang City, but now he is the commander of an army.
However, Yue Liang City is an important military town, and the highest officer guarding it is not Lin Hao, but a general with a higher level. It is said that he is a collateral member of the royal family and has the blood of the Xuanyue royal family flowing through him.
Jing Yu's army is the closest iron army to the current king Xuan Jing. Just as the city defender thought, under Yun Xiao's internal and external cooperation, Xuan Jing relied on these Jing Yu's troops who never gave up.
Only then did he regain the initiative and become the current leader of the country.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Hao was still in the early stage of the spiritual vein realm. After this period of practice, he has suddenly broken through to the middle stage of the spiritual vein realm. Being able to become the leader of Jing Yu's army at this level has to be said to be impressive.
The ingredients of that great achievement in the first place.
"If you let me see you again, I will definitely tear your head off!"
After Lin Hao slapped the soldier, he didn't punish him too much. After all, he knew that there had been no war in the north these years, so these soldiers must have become numb.
"Um?"
However, just when Lin Hao turned his head, he suddenly discovered that very far away from the north gate of Yueliang City, a huge wind and sand had rolled up. Moreover, these wind and sand were not caused by the wind of heaven and earth. They were simply like
Overwhelming.
"Woooooooo..."
Just when Lin Hao thought of a possibility, a sound of horns suddenly sounded from a high platform beside him, and then a puff of smoke rose into the sky, which shocked him.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
At the same time, voices echoed one after another at the north gate of Yue Liang City. At this time, Lin Hao was finally certain that the northern border of the empire, which had not seen war for decades, would finally be broken.
's calmed down.
Whoosh!
Just when Lin Hao was about to turn around and report to the General, a sound of breaking wind suddenly came from beside him. When he saw the face of the person clearly, he immediately fell to the ground.
"I've met the General!"
It turned out that the person who came was none other than the general Xuan Shouye who guarded Yueliang City, an important town in the north. His father was the second uncle of the previous king Xuan Haoran, so even the current king Xuan Jing had to call him "high"
Uncle!
Xuan Shouye's strength and identity are much stronger than Lin Hao, and he has reached the peak level of the spiritual vein realm. However, at this moment, he didn't pay much attention to Lin Hao. Instead, he stared at the mighty coming from the north with a worried look on his face.
The enemy's army.
"Is this direction the Lingtian Empire?"
A ray of light flashed in Xuan Shouye's eyes, and he had already thought of a possibility. Although there were many northern countries, the only one who dared to come to provoke the Xuanyue Empire was the Lingtian Empire, which was also a super empire.
It's just that for so many years, the Xuanyue Empire and the Lingtian Empire have always been on good terms, and the two empires are related by marriage, so the two sides have never been at war.
"In-laws? Damn it, how could I forget this?"
However, when he thought of the in-laws between the two countries, Xuan Shouye couldn't help but cursed secretly. He thought that in the past, Xuan Yue Lingtian had been helping each other. Since the two countries were in-laws, a war was naturally impossible, but the current situation was different.
The biological sister of His Majesty, the current head of the Lingtian Empire, is Nie Yi, the former queen of the Xuanyue Empire and later promoted to the queen mother. But now, the head of the Xuanyue Empire is Xuanjing, born to Concubine Su.
As for Nie Yi and Xuan Jiuding mother and son, they disappeared after the royal family change a few months ago, so Xuan Shouye has reason to believe that the mother and son must have escaped from the Xuan Yue Empire through some channels and finally returned to Lingtian
In the empire.
In this way, everything can be easily explained. Nie Yi must have cried to his eldest brother, who was the leader of the Lingtian Kingdom. Given his love for his sister, it was not impossible to raise an army because of this.
"Lin Hao, the Lingtian Empire has invaded our Yueliang City, and we are sending an order to all our officers and men to prepare to face the enemy!"
After Xuan Shouye thought about this, he seemed to be able to faintly see the words "Ling Tian" on the waving flag in the distance. He no longer had any doubts and immediately gave a deep drink.
"yes!"
Lin Hao handed over his hand in response. With his shrewdness, he naturally figured out something from Xuan Shouye's words. But what he couldn't figure out was how did Xuan Jiuding, Nie Yi, mother and son do anything when the northern border was so impenetrable.
From the city?
But none of this is important anymore. Now the Lingtian Empire is attacking in a big way. It seems that they are well prepared. Whether Yueliang City can be defended is a matter of two minds. Everything can only be fought to the death.
"Woooooooo..."
Suddenly, the sound of horns sounded loudly throughout Yueliang City. Both the soldiers of Jing Yu's army and the cultivators passing by Yueliang City knew that something big had happened, and everyone's faces showed panic.
Just when all the Yueliang City soldiers gathered at the north gate, the Lingtian Empire army below had also arrived at the city. The first man riding a tall horse and dressed in military uniform was none other than Nie Wenchang, the leader of the Lingtian Empire.
But beside him were two young men. If Yun Xiao were here, he would find that these two people were familiar to him. They were Nie Qianqiu, the prince of Lingtian whom he had suppressed before, and Xuan Xuan.
Haoran's eldest son Xuan Jiuding.
As for the former Queen of Xuanyue, Nie Yi, she would naturally not miss such a grand event. She also wore armor and rode a horse and stood in front of the generals. She looked at the tall Yueliang City Wall in front of her and showed a pleasant sneer from time to time.
"Xuan Haoran, since you are so ignorant of promotion, then I will destroy your entire Xuan Yue Empire to see if you can still be so aloof!"
This is what Nie Yi really thinks in her heart. People like her can never find reasons from themselves. They only think that Xuan Haoran betrayed her mother and son, so this revenge must be avenged.
"Your Majesty, the Lord of the Lingtian Kingdom, I, Xuan Yue Lingtian, have always kept my nose to the water. If you come to the city with great fanfare today, do you know what the consequences will be?"
At this moment, Xuan Shouye had clearly seen the faces of the people below him. Even though he knew that his words were useless, he still didn't want the war to come and cause ruin to all living beings.
"Haha, consequences?"
Before Nie Wenchang, the leader of Lingtian Kingdom, could speak, Nie Yi was already laughing loudly, and she heard her scream: "Xuan Shouye, when your two brothers kicked my mother and son out of the Xuanyue royal family, did you ever think about it?
Will there be such a bad thing today?"
Naturally, Nie Yi also recognized Xuan Haoran, his cousin, and when the royal family changed, it was Xuan Shouye who led Jing Yu's army to kill, and cooperated with Yunxiao Yu Hu Sect and others, causing their plan to fail.
Later, Jing Yu's army searched the entire empire, almost making it impossible for Nie Yi and his son to escape from the Xuanyue Empire. Therefore, Nie Yi's hatred for Xuan Shouye was probably no less than that for Xuan Haoran and Xuan Jing's father and son.
.
"Hmph, a woman from the harem, a rebellious minister and a traitor, how dare you talk about righteousness?"
Xuan Shouye snorted coldly at first, and then seemed to suppress the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Nie Yi, you and the emperor have been married for hundreds of years, do you really have no regard for the kindness between husband and wife?"
"The love between husband and wife? Xuan Shouye, let me tell you, it was that old guy Xuan Haoran who ignored the love between husband and wife. What does it have to do with me, Nie Yi? I just want him to see the consequences of offending me, Nie Yi!"
Listening to Xuan Shouye mentioning the love between husband and wife, Nie Yi seemed to instantly turn into a wild cat whose tail had been stepped on. His voice became a bit shriller, resounding in the sky at the north gate of Yue Liang City, and it was a bit ferocious.
.
As soon as these words came out, Xuan Shouye knew that it was no longer possible to impress this woman with affection. At this moment, the leader of Lingtian Kingdom, who had been silent until now, finally spoke for the first time.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Let's capture Yueliang City and see if Xuan Shouye can still be so calm and composed!"
The leader of the Lingtian Kingdom was not a sloppy person. After hearing his deep voice, he waved his hand, and the armored soldiers behind him swarmed out and began to attack the city.
Suddenly, Lingtian soldiers' crossbows and arrows flew up the city ladder with a rainbow-like momentum, and Yueliang City was not unprepared. Solid rocks and huge trees fell down one after another, and boiling oil and fire bombs shot out, trying to stop Lingtian.
Heavenly soldiers climbed up the city.
The drums were beating, the horns were blowing, and it was a brutal battle. This was a war between empires. It was all piled up with blood and bones. For the lives of these low-level soldiers, like Nie Wenchang, the leader of Lingtian Kingdom,
It's impossible to care about the characters at all.
The siege battle must be filled with corpses, but at Nie Wenchang's level, he is probably just waiting for an opportunity, waiting for a perfect opportunity to attack with one strike.
