Yue Zhong eyed Lian Da Zhong coldly: "Your predecessor, Shang Ming De, had his head blown apart by me! Do you want to live or die? "
Lian Da Zhong's back immediately broke out in cold sweat, as he knelt down and kowtowed: "This slave wants to live! This slave wants to live!! Leader, please spare this slave's life! "
Lian Dazhong was not a man of integrity to begin with. If he was, he would not run over to the Manchurian Empire to be Xuan Zhen's slave. The moment Yue Zhong used death to threaten him, his bones immediately softened.
Yue Zhong asked Lian Da Zhong: "I need time! Do you have any way to delay Xuan Zhen's assault on Tian Mu Town? "
By this time, all the survivors in Tian Mu Town had been mobilized, and were building all sorts of fortifications, preparing for the brutal battle. Every minute that passed, the Manchurian Empire's assault would be more difficult.
Lian Da Zhong's head was full of sweat as he racked his brains, his brain working to its limits. He knew that his answer would determine whether he would be killed by this man in front of him like his predecessor.
Lian Da Zhong racked his brains, and his eyes brightened up: "I've got it! Leader, as long as you pretend to surrender! As long as you let me go back, tell Xuan Zhen that you're willing to surrender, but you need time to sort out your belongings, and beg him to wait for 2 more hours. He will definitely agree to your request, and wait for 2 more hours. I know his patience is limited, 2 hours is already the limit. Any more, and he will not agree. "
Yue Zhong replied coldly: "Fine! I'll let you go back. However, before I go back, I'll plant a bomb in your body. If Xuan Zhen attacks within 2 hours, I'll activate the bomb, and blast you into pieces. Men, plant the bomb in him! "
Two soldiers stepped forward and pressed Lian Da Zhong down, while one of them used a large blade to cut Lian Da Zhong's thigh, inserting a finger-sized remote-controlled bomb into his thigh.
One of the Enhancers stepped forward, and pressed a button on the remote-controlled bomb, and a green light enveloped the bomb.
Seeing this, Lian Da Zhong's face turned pale, but he did not dare say anything. The man sitting on the throne was someone who could even kill someone like the Minister of Rites, Shang Mingde, with a single spear strike. He was an extremely daring and ferocious man. He did not want to die here.
One of the Enhancers with the [External Wound Healing] skill pointed at Lian Da Zhong's thigh, and activated it. With a flash of light, the wound on his thigh was healed, and the remote-controlled bomb was sealed within his thigh.
"Let me show you the power of the bomb implanted in your body!" Yue Zhong threw a similar sized bomb towards a fake mountain, and then pressed a button.
Boom!
Along with a huge explosion, more than half of the rockery was blown up.
Seeing this scene, Lian Da Zhong's face paled. Anyone who had such a thing implanted in their body would have an ugly expression.
Yue Zhong replied: "The bomb is very easy to remove, as long as an operation is performed, it can be easily removed. However, I had my subordinates add a detection skill on it. As long as you dare to cut that area or make any strange movements, I will sense it and detonate the bomb. If you don't believe me, you can try. "
Lian Da Zhong hurriedly assured Yue Zhong: "Leader, you are a man of your words, you will not lie to this slave. Your servant will definitely not use my own life to experiment, so please rest assured, Lord Leader. "
Yue Zhong eyed Lian Da Zhong and said indifferently: "You're dismissed! In half an hour, I will let you go. "
Lian Da Zhong thanked him profusely: "Thank you, Leader! Thank you, Leader! "
Zhao Jing Lei looked at Yue Zhong in disbelief: "Yue Zhong! Have you grasped the technology of the remote-controlled bomb? "
If the remote-controlled bomb could be invented, it would be a terrifying method to control people. Tenpyo Saka's neck was already equipped with a sensor device, the moment it was removed without a password, the bomb would immediately explode. Zhao Jing Lei could not believe that Yue Zhong had actually grasped such a technology. The remote-controlled bomb was so small, it was hard for her to imagine that there would be a sensor installed on it.
Yue Zhong chuckled lightly: "How is that possible? I was the one who scared him. The remote-controlled bomb is real, but if he wants to remove it, he just has to perform an operation. "
Zhao Jing Lei asked: "Aren't you afraid that he would go back and perform an operation?"
Yue Zhong replied: "Someone like Lian Da Zhong who treasures his life would not risk his life to remove the bomb. So what if he took out the bomb? Xuan Zhen could only take Tian Mu Town by force. "
Zhao Jing Lei thought about it, it was as Yue Zhong had said, even if Lian Da Zhong found out, they would not suffer any losses.
Half an hour later, when Xuan Zhen was getting impatient, Lian Da Zhong returned and reported, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! The leader of Tian Mu Town, Yue Zhong, is afraid of Your Majesty, and is willing to surrender. However, he has a few conditions, and hopes that Your Majesty can agree to them. "
Xuan Zhen was overjoyed and asked: "What conditions?"
Lian Da Zhong replied slowly: "Firstly, Yue Zhong hopes that you can appoint him as the commander. Secondly, he does not wish for his troops to be broken up, and hopes to lead his old subordinates. Thirdly, he hopes that his and his subordinates' personal safety and wealth will not be harmed. "
Xuan Zhen's brows furrowed slightly: "How did you reply?"
Xuan Zhen had always been wary of the Hans and other foreign races that he had recruited, and would not allow the Hans to grow too strong. He prefers to split up the Han forces and incorporate them into the Han army instead of allowing the Han forces to rule over their old subordinates.
Lian Da Zhong's brows furrowed as he hurriedly replied: "This slave deserves to die, for agreeing to his 1st and 3rd conditions on his own. As for the 2nd condition, this slave rejected it firmly. After my patient persuasion, he agreed to it, and gave up on the 2nd condition. However, after joining my Manchurian Empire, he has the authority to choose a hundred beautiful virgins to serve him. Furthermore, those 100 virgins will be provided for by the Manchurian Empire. This slave deserves to die, for agreeing to his request. "
Xuan Zhen's brows relaxed, and he looked at Lian Da Zhong's fawning face: "Good! You've done well, Lian Da Zhong!! You're truly my good slave!! You're loyal to me, and I will not mistreat you. When Tian Mu Town is under my control, I will reward you with 5 beauties. "
Lian Da Zhong immediately got down on his knees and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!!"
Xuan Zhen asked directly: "When are they going to surrender?"
"Yue Zhong suggested to bring his men out of the city tomorrow!"
When Lian Da Zhong's words came out, Xuan Zhen frowned.
Lian Da Zhong observed Xuan Zhen's expression and replied without batting an eyelid: "This slave naturally rejected his request. This slave said that if he wanted to leave the city tomorrow, he would definitely be trying to stall for time. Yue Zhong and the rest were scared out of their wits, and begged this slave to give them some time to gather up their belongings. The servant didn't want to push them too hard, so he gave them two hours to tidy up their belongings. Yue Zhong and the rest are willing to surrender to Your Majesty in 2 hours. "
Xuan Zhen hesitated a while, before replying slowly: "2 hours? Fine, We'll wait for them for 2 more hours. "
Tian Mu Town was the faction that had forced the Gold Wolf Riders under Dong-Er Molei to retreat, causing them to suffer a huge loss. Xuan Zhen wanted to swallow this faction without suffering any losses, that was why he had given Yue Zhong and the rest some time to catch their breath.
2 hours was nothing to Xuan Zhen. If he could gain control of Tian Mu Town, Xuan Zhen was willing to wait for an entire day.
Xuan Zhen then frowned: "Where's Shang Ming De?"
Lian Da Zhong had an enraged look: "Your Majesty!! You must punish that despicable Shang Ming De!! When this subordinate came to Tian Mu Town, he was actually drinking and flirting with over 20 beauties, completely forgetting his mission. What's worse, he actually fought with me over the beauties, and scolded me out loud. Your Majesty, please punish this despicable man. "
When Xuan Zhen heard that, his brows relaxed, he knew his subordinate's character. Shang Ming De was truly a despicable man who relied on the Manchurian Empire to be arrogant and lustful. There were a few beauties in Shang Ming De's family, and it was normal for him to be corrupted by them.
Xuan Zhen replied indifferently: "Got it! When he comes back, We will reprimand him! You're dismissed! "
Although Xuan Zhen knew that Shang Ming De was a scum, he was also an obedient slave. There were many things that he didn't need to say, and Shang Ming De would do it for him. Hence, he would not abandon Shang Ming De so easily.
Lian Da Zhong replied without batting an eyelid, before retreating: "Hey! Your Majesty! "
The moment Lian Da Zhong left Xuan Zhen's side, he immediately returned to his own tent to pack up all the rations and weapons, before finding an excuse to sneak out of the Manchurian camp.
2 hours later, Xuan Zhen waited for a long time, but there was no sign of Yue Zhong's troops surrendering, and a bad feeling arose in his heart, as he roared out: "Lian Da Zhong!! Find Lian Da Zhong for This Emperor!! "
Not long after, a guard came up to Xuan Zhen and reported: "Your Majesty! Lian Da Zhong has escaped! "
Xuan Zhen slammed his palm down on the table, and a terrifying strength exploded out, causing the table to break apart: "Damn it! Damn Lian Da Zhong, damn Yue Zhong, you dare to make a fool out of This Emperor!! Convey my orders!! Immediately attack Tian Mu Town, and not even the fowls and dogs will be spared!! Those who capture Lian Da Zhong and Yue Zhong alive will be promoted by 3 ranks, and 10 beauties. This Emperor will sentence them to death by a thousand cuts!! "
Under Xuan Zhen's orders, the Manchurian army that had been standing still all this while began to launch their assault on Tian Mu Town. (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to drop a recommendation vote or a monthly vote. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
