After Tang Yan left the palace, he went straight to the west gate of the city.
The garrison of Delos is on high alert. A large number of weapons and equipment are piled up in the city gate area. Engineers are busy debugging and repairing. Tens of thousands of migrant workers are transporting supplies back and forth and repairing the walls.
It seems busy and depressing, but it is a long-lost calm. The Zhou Empire clearly announced that it will suspend the attack, implying that it is resting and waiting for Delos' final breakthrough.
Two million troops were densely surrounded outside the ancient city of the imperial capital, but did not attack.
Tang Yan stood at the crenel at the head of the city, looking at the Zhou troops in the smoke and dust. Their formations were well arranged and divided in an orderly manner, showing a posture of both offense and defense. But the soldiers were sitting lazily on the ground, and some
They were talking and communicating with each other, some were eating steamed buns, and some simply went to sleep.
But their performance was relaxed and ordinary, and the Delos garrison at the top of the city did not dare to be careless in the slightest. They had long been accustomed to Zhou's offensive style. The two million troops under the city seemed lazy for the time being, but as long as the war drums sounded,
A brutal and violent offensive can be launched in a very short period of time.
The line of sight extended forward, and there were a large number of towering drum stands built two kilometers away. Elite troops were stationed around them. Different from the laziness of the siege troops, their bodies were as straight as steel guns. It could be seen that they were full of energy and murderous, and every day they were filled with murderous intent.
Every few towers there will be King Wu standing in the air, enhancing the defense of the drum platform area.
Stretching further forward, at the end of the line of sight is the main camp area of Da Zhou. Nearly five kilometers away from the city gate is the main camp tent of King Zhou Ling. The distance is too far and only the specific outline can be seen. But that's all.
From the outline, one can infer the huge number of camps and the tightness of the security.
Although Tang Yan entrusted Zhu Guli with the responsibility of the sneak attack, he still felt uneasy. This pig brother was not mentally normal, and his space martial arts skills were half-baked. If he messed up, everyone would lose their lives.
Fortunately, there are still four days left, and Nalan Tu can get along with Chocolate, which can help me carefully observe his abilities and make a judgment for the final action.
"Congratulations." A cold voice came from behind, it was Matthews.
Tang Yan withdrew his gaze and looked at this man with a sharp sword spirit in his bones. He couldn't help but smile: "What should I be happy about?"
The garrison troops on the city wall couldn't help but glance here, sizing up these two men with a complicated relationship.
"Niya is tempted." Matthews cast his sword-like gaze on the majestic battlefield of Fengyan Hunting. His handsome but cold face showed no emotion at all. His whole person was like a sharp blade, exuding hardness and chill.
Tang Yan smiled: "Are you trying to say that you are giving up?"
"On the day you officially announced your marriage, I gave up."
"Are you really going to just protect her? To be honest, it makes me feel awkward when you do this."
"You have your feelings, and I have my freedom. It has nothing to do with you."
"Does the deeper meaning of your words... I'm going to be your lightbulb and make you depressed in the awkwardness." Tang Yan made a joke, but Matthews was expressionless and showed no signs of it at all.
, which made him really depressed.
Okay, I'm asking for trouble.
"It's you who should be congratulated. I heard that the fierce sword merged with you very smoothly." Tang Yan lay on the crenel, feeling the majestic and majestic battlefield, and observing the formation of the Zhou troops.
"My bloodline is unique. I can independently turn it into a sealed scabbard, use my body as a medium to seal the sword body, and condense it into a natal blood sword, merging into one body. The vicious sword you gave me is very overbearing, but it seems to have an affinity with my bloodline.
They integrated very smoothly. The day when I completely integrate the fierce sword will be the day when I will be promoted to the Martial Master." Matthews' eyes narrowed slightly, and a sword-like light flashed in his eyes.
"How many sword bodies can your body support?"
"It has nothing to do with the quantity, but with the sword body. My family once gathered thirty-six sharp swords for me, and I was pregnant with them all, and they coexisted equally. But now that the fierce sword has entered my body, the rest of the sword bodies have all collapsed, and coexistence cannot be achieved.
.”
"I'm used to eating bread, and I don't look down on Wotou anymore." Tang Yan smiled silently, turned his gaze to the main camp area, remained silent for a while, and suddenly said: "If I can help you collect the seven fierce swords, how will you repay me?"
Matthews said indifferently: "Nothing can be done in return."
Tang Yan waited for a long time: "Uh... the back, uh? It's gone?"
"I, Matthews, never accept charity, let alone sell my dignity for a sword. You want me to be your guard? Impossible! I can get what I want."
Tang Yan said helplessly: "We are sworn brothers in name no matter what. You don't have to be hostile to me at all times, right? Besides, aren't you using the fierce sword I gave you now?"
"This fierce sword is your bargaining chip for alliance. It is your price, not a charity."
"Okay, even if I didn't say it, talking to you will make me mad. You can enjoy it here slowly, I will go to other cities to have a look." Tang Yan came out not just to prevent wind, he needed to observe clearly outside the four city gates.
The army deployment and terrain characteristics serve as a reference for the direction of the breakout five days later.
Matthews suddenly shouted, ignoring the surprised looks around him: "I will spend my whole life protecting Niya. If you dare to betray her, I would rather die, and I will use this fierce sword in my body to chop off your head!"
"What evil did I do in my last life?" Tang Yan was too lazy to pay attention and left the west gate and rushed to the north gate.
From the early morning of that day to noon of the next day, Tang Yan had been lingering near the four city gates, discussing Zhou's attack method with the guards, simulating the breakout method in his mind, and coming up with the emergency strategy discussed that night.
Fantasy presentation.
By the way, let’s speculate on what measures King Zhou Ling will take to wipe out all his forces.
This breakout is related to whether he can escape smoothly. It is also the first time that he has officially competed with an imperial prince such as King Zhou Ling and participated in such a huge chess game.
It is not only a matter of life and death, but also brings a lot of inspiration.
This is a life and death test, but also a rare opportunity.
As for Niya, Tang Yan actually didn't take it seriously at all. He knew some things very well, and pretending to be confused was to increase the mood and have fun. He could see that the two women were just trying to test each other out.
weight and prepare for the protracted war in the future.
Now is not the time for children to be in love, of course Niya knows that, not to mention that Niya actually doesn’t care about these things between men and women. Even when she teased Belle and was suspected of having an affair with Natalie, she just took it as a normal thing.
.Perhaps Zhaoyi is different from Little Belle and will make Niya feel threatened and provoked and treat her differently, but she will also start a confrontation in her own field and will not do anything to Tang Yan.
On the fourth day, Tang Yan, Oding and others gathered again to discuss the action plan again.
That night, Odin attacked alone, teamed up with the royal family and various powerful figures to announce the content of the plan, and jointly launched secret operations. There must be many informants of Zhou Dynasty in the imperial city. At the current crisis, it is difficult to avoid that some high-level officials will
In order to contact these informants and prepare to join Da Zhou, they could only try to keep it secret.
In the early morning of the fifth day, Nalantu found Tang Yan and made a judgment - chocolate can be trusted.
At noon on the fifth day, all deployments were basically completed. Tang Yan found the venerables of the Dayan Mountains to arrange an action plan. The royal family began to do superficial activities according to the plan, because the overall operation was very large and required the use of troops from all aspects.
, surface activities must unfold.
At the same time, the main camp of Da Zhou, who received the secret report, also started a long-planned action.
In the afternoon, the walls of Delos Imperial City were filled with guard troops, and all defensive weapons were replaced with long-range attack equipment. This was a precursor to a counterattack.
A large number of troops were gathered on the main roads within the four city gates. The numbers were the same and the numbers were the same. There was no difference. The spies watching in secret could not tell which city tower Delos would choose as the breakout force.
The two million Zhou troops outside the city gate began to adjust. A huge army of 200,000 was gathered outside each gate, and the remaining more than one million were scattered to the four corners of the imperial city, forming a horned state.
Reinforcements are approaching the city gate in the shortest possible time.
Fifty thousand Eagle Cavalry are entrenched high in the sky, ready to reinforce major battlefields at any time.
The major Martial Kings and Martial Lords were dispersed outside the four city gates according to their strength levels, and were on full alert.
One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and the battlefield of the Imperial City, which had been silent for five days, gradually fell into a state of high tension. As night fell, tens of thousands of densely packed torches danced with bright flames, and billowing dust filled the vastness as the troops moved.
The earth was roaring with the low beating of war drums, exaggerating the solemnity of the war about to break out.
As the night falls, the sound of drumming begins to get louder!
Both sides were breathless as the war was about to break out. The defense of the main camp of the Great Zhou Dynasty was raised to the extreme. King Zhou Ling came to the battlefield in person and was closely guarded by his personal guards. In the imperial city, whether it was the outer city or the inner city, every door was tightly closed.
Lock, men, women, old and young hugged each other tightly, staring blankly at the door with horrified eyes, waiting for the fate to be pronounced.
There was chaos inside the palace. With the complete withdrawal of the troops, a feeling of despair permeated the magnificent palaces. Some of the abandoned concubines and maidens were hiding, some fled, and some committed suicide directly to avoid suffering when the city was destroyed.
The ravages of brutal soldiers.
Nervousness mixed with sadness, fighting spirit mixed with fear, the entire imperial city became as depressed as water as the night deepened.
Late at night and early in the morning! At the moment when this emotion was squeezed to the limit, the guard troops gathered in the four gates of Delos suddenly began to mobilize on a large scale. The rapid sound of horse hooves broke the oppressive calm, and a series of orders were issued to the troop commanders.
, very hot, the 300,000 troops at the north and south gates surged crazily towards the west gate amidst the anxious shouts of the commander, while the east gate did not move, but the hidden Golden Crow Guards and other troops suddenly appeared!
The overall mobilization indicates that Delos will abandon the north and south gates and place the breakout targets in the east and west. Large-scale troops will move to the west, indicating that all the high-ranking officials in Delos will use the west as the "soul burial ground" to fully contain them.
The eastern part of the Great Zhou Empire is the main assault site for the Dayan Mountains to guard Delos' Hope's escape.
