That Suman's eyes flashed for a moment before he laughed out loud, "I am the subject of the ruler, the subject of the prince, where did the word surrender come from?"
He pulled out his knife, the snow bright knife light flashing behind him. Tens of heads were tossed into the air, blood spurting out.
Zong Yuan took a look at these people, only to see that most of them were Fang Xu's trusted aides. He didn't bother about them.
Suman walked to the inner side of the city wall and hollered down, "Are you all dead? The prince has returned, why aren't you opening the gate! "
The two hundred armored soldiers at the city gate below were first stunned, and then they all hurriedly carried away the few thick and heavy steel door bars one after another. After a few of them came back to their senses, they wanted to stop them. However, Suman jumped down and slashed with a knife, splitting their heads into two.
In just a moment, the city gates were opened. A few breaths later, Zong Gang led 2 thousand cavalry and stepped into the city.
Although they were below the city, they could sense Fang Xu's corpse above. First, he patted Suman's shoulder and called him Old Su. Then, he laughed out loud, "What a Purple Lightning Spear Zong Yuan! Even Fang Xu died in your hands. The prince's eyes are sharp, he really didn't misjudge you. "
Zong Yuan jumped down from the air, expressionlessly looking at Zong Gang. He was too lazy to bother. After getting off the horse, he walked towards the city gates and half knelt down.
"Minister Zong Yuan welcomes the prince back to the city! I didn't let you down and cut off Fang Xu's head! "
Zong Gang turned his head, only to see a thousand feet away. Zong Shou, Tan Tao and the others were galloping towards the city gates. He waved his hand and the 2 thousand cavalry all got off their horses and half knelt down on the road.
"We welcome the prince back to the city!"
Around this area, there were many thousands of east city army soldiers who had gathered here. When they saw the situation, they were at a loss and didn't know what to do. They didn't know whether they should charge up or kneel down with these people.
Just as they were hesitating, they saw Zong Gang and Zong Yuan raise their heads, their knife-like gazes sweeping over. "Oh?" With a cold scoff, two extremely strong martial path intents suddenly pressed down on the area ten thousand feet around.
Instantly, close to 90% of the soldiers couldn't hold on and fell to the ground. The remaining people's faces were also pale.
Suman also half-knelt along with Zong Gang and the others, his expression was one of shock.
The two thousand cavalrymen in front of him, whether it was the Black Fox Iron Cavalry or the Mysterious Armor Wind Dragon Cavalry, were all elites among elites. However, such elite cavalry was always a thorn in the army. If they didn't have enough strength, they wouldn't be able to do anything. Even the Demon King City Lord couldn't win their respect. At this moment, most of them lowered their heads and didn't show any signs of unwillingness.
He was well aware of Zong Gang's character. Arrogant and untamed, only when the ruler Zong Weiran was there could he suppress him. Even if he was still loyal to the Crown Prince, he could not help but be arrogant. At this moment, he actually had a respectful expression on his face, and his eyes shone brightly.
As for Zong Yuan, he knew that this person was loyal to Zong Hao and Zong Yang. At this moment, for some reason, he actually joined the Crown Prince's side.
A few days ago, during the battle of Ruohai Straits, three thousand iron cavalry trampled over a thousand troops. Just thinking about it made one's blood boil.
If it wasn't for him personally seeing Zong Yuan, he would have killed Zong Yuan. One spear to kill Fang Xu. It was hard to believe that this kid had created such a terrifying battle record.
Looking at his expression, he didn't have any unwillingness at all, and his expression was close to being sincere. Even in the past, when this kid listened to Zong Hao, he didn't have such respect.
Zong Shou rode on that grade 4 war horse that was armed to the teeth, swiftly passing through the doorway.
Then, he was frightened by the thousands of people kneeling in front of him as well as the cheers of them welcoming the Crown Prince.
He was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses. In an instant, he felt a surge of pride.
Thinking to himself, no wonder people said that a man should be drunk and lie on a beauty's lap, sober to control the world. This feeling of holding a thousand troops in one's hands was intoxicating.
From today onwards, he would control the entire Gantian Mountain City. At that time, he might be able to unify Donglin Cloud Continent and even compete with the Central Continent God Emperor!
A moment later, he shook his head and laughed involuntarily.
It seemed like his goals weren't as firm as he thought. During these few days, he only grasped a little bit of power and it nearly wavered.
He couldn't help but take in a deep breath, trying his best to calm himself down.
At this moment, he was still that small librarian ten thousand years later. He had once dominated his entire life, tossing aside all the fame and fortune to seclude himself in the library where he worked in the past.
Just to have a quiet place to study the sword path and the sword theories of the hundred schools of thought. To build a solid foundation to pursue the pinnacle of the martial path!
Although his current body wasn't Tan Qiu, but the Monster King's son, Zong Shou. What he wanted still didn't change.
Today, he came back to take the position of Monster King to complete the wishes of the person in front of him.
His hand suddenly grasped the lightning winged sword by his waist. Zong Shou smiled to himself, feeling at ease in his heart. This was his foundation!
Many thoughts flashed in his mind, but in just a moment, Zong Shou came back to his senses. He waved his right hand to signal for everyone to get up. Then, he faced Suman.
Out of all the east city army soldiers, only this person wore the deputy capital robe. His status was the highest and his strength was also the strongest.
Recalling in his mind, although Zong Shou was young when he left, he had memories of all the Xuanwu ancestors and above.
In just a moment, Zong Shou recognized the identity of this person, "You are Suman? East city army deputy capital commander? How is the situation in the city? "
That Suman was also an experienced person. After cupping his fists towards Zong Shou, he replied really simply, "Young master Zong Yang, Zong Shi, Zong Shiyuan and the others are in the Chongzheng Hall at the peak of the mountain. They rang the meeting bell 9 times to summon people for a meeting. However, to date, apart from their trusted subordinates, no one has responded. Overlord duke and Qiu Tingzhu are in Zhengang Peak. Although they control 470 thousand troops in the city, more than those traitors by 100 thousand. However, they are afraid of breaking the vases and don't dare to act rashly. Both sides are facing off at the south of the city. Oh right, vast country duke Chai Yuan, for some reason he didn't go to the Chongzheng Hall. However, the 80 thousand martial cultivators of the wind bear race in the city are also mobilized. "
"Vast country duke Chai Yuan?"
Zong Shou squinted his eyes and instantly roughly guessed the situation within the city. His eyes moved about as he swept around.
"The east city army has 5 towns. Along with the supporting troops, there are 60 thousand troops. How long does capital commander Su need to make these people work for me? "
When Suman heard that, he didn't understand. Since he had already returned to the city, then why didn't he meet up with Hu Qianqiu and Qiu Wei to head to the Chongzheng Hall together? At that time, they would be able to settle everything.
One must know that although Zong Shi and the others worked together, they weren't of one mind. As for the hundreds of thousands of troops gathered, most of them were forced to follow. Zong Shou, as the rightful ruler, only needed the help of important officials. With a shout, he would be able to gather half of them.
Why did they have to waste time in the east city?
Were they worried about the experts sent by Daoming Sect and Xuansu Sect? However, now that the situation was settled, would these people dare to attack Gantian Mountain City?
After a moment of hesitation, Suman said in a resolute tone, "Fifteen minutes! The 4th town of the east city army has been under my control from start to finish. In just 15 minutes, I will be able to take control of the 2nd and 3rd towns. The other 2 town commanders are all loyal to Fang Xu and need the prince to send people to act. "
His eyes were looking at Zong Gang and Zong Yuan.
Zong Shou didn't reply, looking at the tall mountain in deep thought. The main peak of Gantian Mountain was 12 thousand feet tall, the secondary peak was Zhengang Peak which was 9 thousand and 700 feet tall.
At this moment, Gantian Mountain City was filled with darkness and silence. Only these 2 mountain peaks were brightly lit.
Then, his lips curled up in an enigmatic manner. This situation was several times better than what he had imagined.
He looked at the wind bear race in his memory, especially where the Chai Yuan race lived.
He seemed to have thought of a way. The battle today seemed to have a higher chance of winning.
※ ※ ※
On the peak of Zhengang Peak, Hu Qianqiu grinned and laughed maniacally, "As expected from the prince, you didn't disappoint me. You actually broke through Zhenshan Pass. This is half a day earlier than I expected! Your ability is really amazing! Your first move is lightning quick, you have the style of the ruler … "
"That person is purple lightning spear Zong Yuan?"
Although they were tens of miles away, when Qiu Wei focused his energy into his eyes, he could still see the situation tens of miles away.
Just now, he had personally witnessed how Zong Yuan used the lightning spear sense to behead Fang Xu with one spear.
This person was indeed worthy of being the legendary Unparalleled General Seed.
Although it was shocking that Zhenshan Pass was broken through, with this person there, there seemed to be a chance.
With this person here, it was the prince's fortune. Who knows what methods the prince used to make this person willingly serve him.
This shock only lasted for a moment. When he looked out and saw that the person who rode into the city was the prince whom he hadn't seen in 3 years. Qiu Wei instantly relaxed, "As expected, it is the prince! It is good that he is back. Those clowns are asking to die. The most important thing is to send people to escort the prince to meet up with us … "
Just as he said that, he was startled. Only to see that at the east city gate, the close to ten thousand troops that followed Zong Shou into the city didn't move towards Gantian Mountain City. Instead, they rested for a moment before splitting up. They moved towards the few towns of the east city army.
What was the meaning of that?
Qiu Wei found it weird. Since he returned to the city, he should work together with everyone to settle the monster king position.
With the ruler and subject position, Zong Shi and the others wouldn't be able to cause any waves.
What Zong Yuan did just now, killing Fang Xu when he was caught off guard, was an exception.
Now that the other party was on guard, those generals would definitely be extremely careful and heavily protect them. Furthermore, it wasn't like Zong Shi didn't have any experts under him.
At this moment, even if he could control 50 thousand more east city army, it wouldn't be of much use. Now that he was afraid of breaking the vases, even if he had more troops, it would be useless. Instead, it would give the enemy more time to react, which wasn't a smart move.
Just as he didn't understand and frowned, he suddenly heard Hu Qianqiu beside him laugh, "Zong Shi and those few brats ran out from within! I knew they wouldn't be able to sit still. "
Qiu Wei followed Hu Qianqiu's gaze and looked out. As expected, Zong Shi and the others were at the edge of the mountain peak, looking down.
The night sky was dark, but one could still see the ugly expressions of these people. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
