"For the glory of the royal family!"
On the second day, when the Red Earth Army discovered that Hiroshi Inoue had not returned, the entire army attacked and stood in front of the Outline Stronghold.
"Soldiers of Konuma Province, I am the Deputy Army Commander of the Eastern Ryukyu Empire's Night Shade. You must hand over our Army Commander, or else the Outline Stronghold will not leave a single living thing alive! "An Eighth-stage Samurai dressed like Hiroshi Inoue asked the Outline Stronghold.
"Humph!" A bunch of shameful things, if you have the ability, then attack the city! "Liu Xi was elected as the leader of the squad after Meng Xitang's death. In addition to his basic military qualities, the most important thing about him was his loyalty.
"I'll say it one last time, hand over our Army Commander, or else we'll slaughter the city!" The Deputy Army Commander of the Night Shade did not think that an army could keep Hiroshi Inoue, the Stage Nine Martial Master. Even if he failed, a small army of the Kingdom would not have the courage to directly kill a Stage Nine Martial Master from the Empire. At the very least, he would have to prepare to use the Stage Nine Martial Master's life to negotiate.
"I'll give it to you!" Liu Xi waved his hand at the soldiers beside him. A moment later, a few soldiers carried Hiroshi Inoue, who had been shot into a hornet's nest, and threw him down from the city wall.
"What's that?" Some of the Red Earth soldiers who did not know what was going on were slightly puzzled when they saw a black object being thrown down. The strongest among them was only a Stage Five Martial Master, so they could not see things hundreds of meters away. However, it was different for the Eighth-stage Samurai of the Night Shade.
He could clearly see that the black object was his Army Commander. For Eighth-stage Samurai, it was very easy to see things four to five hundred meters away, let alone people like them who specialized in assassination.
"Kill!" Slaughter all of the strongholds! "The Stage Eight Martial Master's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. It wasn't that he had a deep relationship with Hiroshi Inoue, but he was very clear on how angry the Emperor would be if he lost a Stage Nine Martial Master at the beginning of the war without any preparation. As for him, the Eighth-stage Samurai, he would most likely suffer as well. After all, to the Empire, Stage Nine Martial Master s were still precious, and Stage Eight s were not that rare.
"Kill!" When the other legion commanders of Red Earth heard the order issued by Eighth-stage Samurai, they immediately commanded the army to attack the fortress. Including the Night Shade, a total of seven legions rushed to the fortress.
"Kill!" Liu Xi also shouted. Countless heavy crossbowmen and longbowmen nocked their arrows and welcomed the attack of Red Earth with a rain of swords.
The war lasted from morning to afternoon, and both sides did not stop. The Legio IV of Konuma Province suffered heavy casualties under the attack of the Night Shade Martial Master. They had already entered the street battle stage, and several commanders had also retreated to the center of the city. The entire fortress was littered with corpses. There were soldiers from Konuma Province, and there were also people who had sacrificed their lives to protect their homes.
"Damn, let the captain of the scouts and the captain of the cavalry come over!" Liu Xi killed a Red Earth soldier with a sword and shouted.
"The captain of the scouts died at the top of the city wall in the morning, and the captain of the cavalry also died when the city wall was lost!" A soldier in the distance responded.
"It's you! Come here. " Liu Xi called the soldier in front of him and said, "It doesn't matter if we all die, but you have to send the body of the Third Prince back. We can't let the heroic deeds of the Third Prince be unknown!"
"Why me!" The soldier responded. He didn't want to be suspected of being a deserter.
"Get lost! This is an order! " Liu Xi roared, raised his sword, and charged forward. He didn't need to know where the enemy was because he was surrounded by enemies.
"Captain!" The soldier glanced at Liu Xi who was bravely killing the enemy, wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, and mounted his horse. He wanted to retrieve the body of Meng Xitang first.
Two days later, in the conference hall of Jiangliu City's royal palace.
"Tiger Commander, congratulations! Your Yang Family is like father, like son! "
"Isn't that so! The two Tiger Commanders will definitely be the pillars of our country in the future. "
"Tiger Commander! I have a daughter who has admired you for a long time. I don't know if you have time to come to my house for a drink or two tonight. "
"Tiger Commander, my daughter has also admired the two commanders for a long time, and she is much more beautiful than that old guy's daughter."
In the eyes of the nobles in the royal court, war was just a matter of throwing some money. As long as the enemy didn't attack them, they would be able to sit back and relax. And as long as they could curry favor with the future big shots of the Kingdom, they would be able to rise rapidly. This was the consensus of most people in the royal court.
Bathed in blood, soldiers die for the country, brocade clothes and dark sand talk and laugh.
"Wang Zhi!" At this moment, Song Cheng, who was in the imperial court, raised his voice and shouted.
"Greetings, Majesty!" All the Human Rank soldiers knelt on the ground and greeted Meng Heshen.
At this time, Meng Heshen walked toward the throne with a gloomy face. The entire hall was filled with a cold and gloomy atmosphere. Most of the bureaucrats were trembling with fear. Most of them were high-ranking officials who had seriously touched the bottom line.
"Yang Ding! Yang Hao! Kap! " Meng Heshen glanced at the people present and called out the three leaders of the two new corps.
"Here!" The three Human Rank soldiers responded.
"The Two Tigers will go to Dongliu City tomorrow. The Earth Dragon Corps will go to River Reef City and be ready for war." Meng Heshen's words instantly made the bureaucrats below. Directly sending two newly built main corps to the border of the Red Earth just showed that the Kingdom was preparing to start a war with the Red Earth.
"Majesty! Our country is already at war with Akiha Province. Rashly sending a large number of troops to the border of the Red Earth will affect the diplomacy between the two countries. " The bureaucrats below began to speak. They didn't know what happened in the fortress two days ago. They didn't know that the Red Earth and even the Eastern Ryukyu Empire had sent troops to attack the fortress.
And Song Cheng's next words exploded the entire royal court.
