At the same time, inside the Imperial Capital.
The number of soldiers in the Imperial Capital had reached five million.
The strength of each soldier was at least at the level of King Wu.
Now, these soldiers were all clad in armor, holding sharp blades in their hands as they stared intently at the passage to the east.
At the end of the passage was a giant gate that was thousands of meters tall and hundreds of meters long.
Behind the giant gate was Iron City No. 3, which was about to be breached by the Anti-Empire Army.
The Marshal of the Empire had long been aware of the rebellion outside the Imperial Capital.
However, the Marshal did not want to send troops to suppress the rebellion of the Anti-Empire Army.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this time, the Anti-Empire Army had also learned that the Underground King was about to pass the Heavenly Tribulation to become Emperor Wu, so they wanted to seize this last opportunity.
This would be a desperate struggle for the Anti-Empire Army. As the Marshal of the Empire, he had to defend the Imperial Capital, which was the last line of defense.
So what if he gave a few Iron Cities to the Anti-Empire Army? As long as the Underground King could successfully become Emperor Wu, then by then, their eyes would not only be on the underground world.
"Pass down my order. No one is allowed to go out. At the same time, tell the other Iron Cities to head to Iron City No. 3 and annihilate the Anti-Empire Army." The Marshal gave the order coldly. However, he also knew in his heart that after taking Iron City No. 3, the Anti-Empire Army was destined to enter the Imperial Capital and fight a bloody battle with them.
However, not only was he not afraid, but he was also excited. He was excited that he could finally fight with Ri Jun.
As for the other troops of the Iron Cities, as long as they headed to Iron City No. 3, they would be able to block the Anti-Empire Army's retreat and work with the troops in the Imperial Capital to annihilate the Anti-Empire Army in one fell swoop.
The reaction in the Imperial Capital was already within Lin Yun's expectations.
Now, Lin Yun and the others had successfully breached Iron City No. 3.
Ri Jun ordered everyone to repair the city walls. At the same time, the rest of the Anti-Empire Army entered Iron City No. 3 one after another.
Lin Yun, Ri Jun, and the others were now gathered in Iron City. In front of them was the giant gate. Behind the gate was the Imperial Capital, which was the real battlefield.
General Ferocious Tiger arrived in time to report the battle at the frontline. "Leader, the other generals have returned. According to Mr. Lin Yun's orders, hundreds of airships are hovering above."
"The rest of the Iron City troops have also returned. They are now a hundred miles to the east. I'm afraid there are tens of millions of people."
As soon as he said that, everyone's expression turned solemn.
In this battle, they had indeed conquered Iron City Number Three. However, they had also sacrificed hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
"If we enter the Imperial Capital now, we will be attacked from both sides. If we start a head-on battle with the army outside the city, I'm afraid we won't have enough troops to fight against those guys inside the Imperial Capital." Deputy Commander Zhong Da was very worried. Just as he had said, the Anti-Empire Army needed to make a decision. Should they enter the imperial capital or deal with the army outside first?
"What do you think?" Ri Jun looked at Lin Yun, seeking his opinion.
If it weren't for Lin Yun's plan, they would have already started a head-on battle with the troops of the 12 Iron City.
If that was the case, there wouldn't be many soldiers left in Tie City.
Lin Yun looked at the giant gate and said calmly, "Leave a million soldiers and all of Wu Sheng to fight against the troops outside."
"What?"
Lin Yun's words surprised everyone.
Many people had doubts in their eyes. A million soldiers against tens of millions. Even if all of Wu Sheng joined the battle, they would not be able to fight against ten in a short period of time.
Moreover, without the help of Wu Sheng, how could Lin Yun, Ri Jun, Zhong Da, and three generals fight against the troops in the Imperial Capital? How could six Wu Zuns fight against the troops in the Imperial Capital?
Among the troops in the Imperial Capital, there was a Marshal whose strength was not inferior to Ri Jun's, six generals of the same level as Wu Zun, and dozens of Wu Sheng.
"Let's not talk about whether we can fight against them after we enter the Imperial Capital. A million soldiers fighting against tens of millions of soldiers, I'm afraid we can't even hold on for half an hour." Rijun frowned and showed some annoyance on his face. He had come this far and he was not willing to fail like this.
"At least we can hold on for two hours." Lin Yun suddenly turned around and said confidently.
"Two hours? Impossible! How can a million soldiers resist for two hours? "Deputy Zhong Da said in a low voice. His words showed his doubts about Lin Yun.
Everyone was also discussing it, thinking that it was absolutely impossible to do.
However, Ri Jun touched his chin and looked pensive.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Did you do something to the Immortal Qi airship?"
Lin Yun rarely felt that the underground people were smart. He explained, "That's right, I placed ten Earth Core Yang Stones in every airship, and there are other formations to help."
"If there's no other choice, the airships can go straight into the opposite army. As long as the formations are triggered, the ten Earth Core Yang Stones can be detonated."
Hearing this, everyone could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Ten Earth Core Yang Stones!
That was very terrifying!
One must know that the Earth Core Yang Stones absorbed the purest energy from the Earth Core. In addition, the energy from the Earth Core exploded today, so the concentration of energy was much higher than usual.
If ten Earth Core Yang Stones exploded at the same time, the power produced was comparable to a full-force attack from a Level One Wu Sheng.
The explosion of a thousand Earth Core Yang Stones in a hundred airships was equivalent to a full-force attack from a hundred Wu Sheng. With the help of a thousand Earth Core Yang Stones, it would not be a problem for the million soldiers to hold out for two hours.
"According to my estimation, if we can't take down the Imperial Capital in two hours, we won't be able to stop the Underground King from becoming Emperor Wu. By that time, will Tie City still be able to hold out?" Lin Yun smiled.
Two hours was their last bit of time.
If they could take down the Imperial Capital in these two hours and let Lin Yun set up the formations to interfere with the Underground King's Tribulation, then they would still have a chance to survive.
If they could not take down the Imperial Capital, then they would also die.
Of course, Lin Yun had already made up his mind to leave.
This heaven and earth did not restrict the "power of space".
If he really had no other choice, he would activate the Primordial Demon and teleport away. However, Lin Yun still wanted to save the Dragon-Phoenix Beasts.
At this moment, all of the generals outside had gathered together.
Seeing this, Rijun also accepted Lin Yun's idea and immediately ordered, "Dragon Fifth, bring the other generals and a million soldiers to guard Tie City. You must block the army outside!"
