During the Three Kingdoms period, Deng Ai had crossed the Yinping Trail and launched a surprise attack on the capital of Shu Han, forcing Liu Chan to surrender.
This was probably one of the most famous surprise attacks in history.
Deng Ai had led his army around the front line of Shu's defenses and through three hundred miles of uninhabited land, leaving behind only a few thousand soldiers. The casualty rate was frighteningly high.
But this time.
When Shen Lang and Ning Zheng's troops arrived at the city gates, the number of troops he had besieged the Chu royal capital was less than ten thousand.
The Chu royal capital was also known as Fengdu, the largest city in Chu.
The size of the city was comparable to Tianyue City, and it was definitely one of the strongest cities in the eastern world.
The entire city had a population of more than a hundred thousand. The royal capital, the inner city, and the outer city.
The outer city had been expanded several times, and the city walls were more than fifty miles long, like a giant beast entrenched on the ground.
The mere nine thousand five hundred soldiers under Shen Lang and Ning Zheng seemed insignificant in front of this huge city.
Not only that, the walls of the Chu royal capital were an astonishing fifteen meters tall, as tall as a five-story building.
It sounded ridiculous to use less than ten thousand soldiers to attack such a strong city.
How many soldiers were there in the Chu royal capital?
Twenty thousand city guards and ten thousand imperial guards, a total of thirty thousand.
This level of emptiness was almost the same as the capital of the State of Yue, only slightly better.
The Chu king had brought the Crown Prince with him for this attack.
There was the Secretariat of the Secretariat, the Privy Council, and the Queen in charge of the palace.
… …
"Rest assured, Your Majesty. The armies of the surrounding cities and commanderies are already rushing over, and will arrive tomorrow at the earliest.
The Chu royal capital is strong and tall. Don't even think about attacking it without a hundred thousand soldiers. "
The Chu queen was in her fifties this year. She had taken good care of her looks, so she still had some charm.
"Who is leading the State of Yue?" the queen asked.
"Ning Zheng, Shen Lang!"
"Shen Lang?" The queen's eyes were filled with deep hatred. During the previous border hunt, it was this guy who had played the Chu kingdom in the palm of his hand.
"Did his army grow wings? They actually flew to the Chu royal capital? "
"They … must have come from the Qiang Kingdom and crossed thousands of miles of snowy mountains."
The moment he said that, Queen Chu said, "That's impossible. No army can cross the great snowy mountain, not in the past, and never in the future."
Everyone fell silent.
If they didn't climb over the snowy mountains, did they really fly over?
The Queen of Chu waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter how they came. The key is how they will die! Even the Bureau of Military Affairs, how many guards are there in the capital? "
"Twenty thousand city guards and ten thousand imperial guards. In addition, I've already gathered the servants of all the noble clans in the capital, and I've gathered another ten thousand." Lian Jing, the chief envoy of the Chu Country, said.
Queen Chu said, "Forty thousand? Can it be more than that? "
The Chu Kingdom's envoy said, "There are many escort agencies and gangs in the city. If we can make them officials, we should be able to recruit another ten to twenty thousand people!"
Empress Chu said, "Hurry up, hurry up. This is not the time to be stingy."
Lian Jing, the Shu Mi Envoy of Chu, had some objections.
An army is about quality, not quantity.
However, he did not have much authority as a Privy Council envoy. The Crown Prince was the true leader of the Privy Council.
Moreover, the officials present felt that they were making a mountain out of a molehill.
Shenlang only had less than ten thousand men, and they did not have any siege equipment. After a long and arduous journey, they were already exhausted. Attacking a strong city like the Chu royal capital was no different from courting death!
Was it not enough to have forty thousand soldiers defending the city?
"Continue the recruitment. Order the surrounding cities and commanderies to mobilize all the troops and surround Shenlang and Ning Zheng's troops. I want to kill them all and not let a single one of them return to the State of Yue alive. I want Ning Zheng and Shenlang to know that anyone who dares to challenge the dignity of the Chu royal capital will die a terrible death!"
"Yes!"
… …
When Shenlang's nine thousand five hundred troops arrived at the Chu royal capital, they did not attack the city immediately.
Instead, they rested on the spot and waited for daybreak!
At this time, the recruitment in the Chu royal capital was in full swing.
The armed servants of the noble clans were all assembled into an army.
The ruffians, gangsters, and gang members of the royal capital were all assembled into an army.
Many of the gang leaders and escorts became military officers with a shake of their bodies.
The entire Chu royal capital could be said to be in high spirits.
After the initial shock, everyone in the Chu royal capital was completely enraged.
The people of the State of Yue were too arrogant.
With less than ten thousand men, they actually dared to attack the royal capital?
That was insane and the ravings of a lunatic.
Then, countless ruffians and martial arts practitioners all enlisted into the army.
In just a few hours!
More than twenty thousand men were recruited.
These ruffians were an unprecedented glory.
The rise and fall of the nation was everyone's responsibility.
Now the Queen has actually invited us out. Although we are ruffians, we can also love the Chu royal capital.
"Make contributions."
"Kill Ning Zheng and Shenlang!"
"Skin all the dogs of Yue and grind their bones to ashes."
The King is fighting at the front, and we are defending the royal capital from the back. I am proud!
Immediately after, the Queen, the Privy Council, and the Minister of State issued a joint order.
Anyone who beheaded a State of Yue soldier could be exchanged for twenty gold coins.
Whoever beheaded Shenlang would be rewarded with ten thousand gold coins.
Whoever beheaded Ning Zheng would be rewarded with five thousand gold coins.
The moment this price was announced, the entire Chu royal capital was in an uproar.
This was simply a huge reward.
They were going to be rich.
With twenty gold coins, they could build a house and marry a wife.
If they used it to eat, drink, and play, they could enjoy it for years.
However, Ning Zheng was the son of the King of Yue, so why was he only worth five thousand gold coins? And why was a mere son-in-law of Shenlang worth ten thousand gold coins?
"Let's get rich, let's get rich!"
"If we kill that pretty boy Shenlang, we will be able to enjoy endless glory and wealth in this lifetime."
"I wonder if Shenlang's meat can be exchanged for money?"
"I wonder if Shenlang's bird can be exchanged for money?"
"Gentlemen, this bastard Shen Lang actually dared to launch a sneak attack on our Chu Empire. He's simply bullying our Chu Empire because there's no one capable. I suggest that after we kill all of Shen Lang's troops, we chop off every single one of their penises and send them back to the King of Chu.
"Alright, alright. Should we send Shenlang's bird to Jin Mulan or to Aru Nana?"
"Give the broken bird to Jin Mulan, and the eggs to Aru Nana and that bitch Ning Yan."
These hooligans were full of vulgarities.
But their morale was definitely high.
As time passed, the number of soldiers in the Chu royal capital increased.
Forty thousand, fifty thousand, sixty thousand, seventy thousand …
This was different from when Deng Ai sneak attacked the Shu royal capital.
Back then, Wei was strong while Shu was weak, and Shu was filled with despair.
Coupled with Liu Chan's weakness, they surrendered without a fight.
But now, the Chu royal capital was different.
Now, it could be said that the stronger Chu was, the weaker it was. The King of Chu was advancing triumphantly on the frontlines, almost destroying the Yue Kingdom.
The citizens of the Chu royal capital were swollen with pride, and had a great sense of honor.
And Shenlang had only sent over nine thousand soldiers.
They were clearly here to throw away their lives. It was a free and dazzling piece of gold. Why wouldn't they take it?
After the anger, many martial artists in the Chu royal capital did not feel that it was dangerous. Instead, they saw this crisis as a great opportunity to make a fortune.
… …
They rested for six hours!
The sky was bright!
Shenlang's nine thousand five hundred soldiers began to assemble.
If there were a pair of eyes in the sky, they would see more than five armies approaching the Chu royal capital.
These were the reinforcements from the surrounding counties.
Of course, there were almost no elites. They were all local soldiers.
He looked up at the walls of the Chu royal capital.
It was a densely packed, uncountable number of defenders.
Their armor and weapons were uniform, but their military formation was not distinct.
But every soldier's eyes were filled with excitement. They looked at Shenlang's army as if they were not looking at people, but at military merits and gold.
Shenlang took a look.
And there were so many soldiers in the city?
Sixty thousand? Seventy thousand?
Wasn't there originally only thirty thousand?
In one night, the number of soldiers in the Chu royal capital had more than doubled?
"Where is Shenlang? Where is Ning Zheng? "
Shenlang could not be bothered.
Ning Zheng stepped forward and bowed. "Ning Zheng pays his respects to Ambassador Lian."
"Ning Zheng, this move of yours is truly shocking," Lian Jing said coldly.
Ning Zheng said, "When two countries go to war, as long as there is no massacre of civilians, there is nothing shocking about it."
Lian Jing laughed. "With less than ten thousand men? You want to attack the Chu royal capital? What a joke. You are the son of the Chu king, and I should give you face. But since what you have done is not dignified, don't blame me for being heartless! If I don't exterminate all of you today, I'm afraid that the people of the world will laugh at my Chu Country for being weak and incompetent. Ning Zheng, Shenlang, if I do not kill the two of you today, I, Lian Jing, will be like this sword! "
With that, the Chu Kingdom's Shumishi suddenly broke the sword in his hand!
"Attack the city!"
Ning Zheng gave the order without a second word!
"Dong dong dong dong!"
The war drums sounded!
The second Nirvana Army stepped forward!
The Sand Barbaric archer army stepped forward.
A total of seven thousand five hundred people marched in unison.
They neared the walls of the Chu royal capital.
The city walls were so tall that it was dazzling.
Two hundred meters.
One hundred and fifty meters.
Halt!
"Release the arrows, shoot!"
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …"
The seven thousand five hundred archers began to shoot again.
A dense rain of arrows rained down on the city walls.
The Chu royal capital's soldiers were not nervous.
At such a distance, and from below?
How could a bow and arrow have any destructive power?
Then …
The rain of arrows exploded.
Blood splattered everywhere.
On the city walls, hundreds of people fell to the ground.
The people of Chu were shocked!
What … what kind of archers were these?
Shooting so far?
How could they be so lethal?
These soldiers were not as brave as the Sand Barbaric warriors. After feeling the power of the rain of arrows from Shenlang's army.
They all squatted down, trying to protect themselves by leaning against the battlements.
This did reduce the number of casualties.
But the arrows could be shot directly from the sky.
There were too many soldiers on the city walls of the Chu royal capital.
As the rain of arrows fell, there were many casualties.
"Bang bang bang bang …"
A moment later, the catapults on the Chu royal city wall showed their might.
There were more than sixty catapults used for defense in the entire Chu royal capital.
But there were only fifteen on this side of the city wall, and they were all fixed.
The problem was that this city wall was too long. There were no more than ten catapults that could hit the Shenlang army.
After a series of loud bangs.
More than ten huge stones smashed toward the Shenlang army.
Loud bangs rang out.
They smashed a huge pit in the ground.
But the results were almost zero.
It would be a miracle if the first wave of catapults could hit their target.
Mulan drew her bow and nocked an arrow.
She aimed at one of the catapults and shot.
"Swoosh …"
This was a giant arrow over two meters long.
It was a specially made arrow by Shenlang.
"Bang …"
Mulan shot the giant arrow directly into the arm of the catapult, penetrating a few inches.
Of course, even so, it still could not destroy the catapult.
But the next second.
"Bang!"
A loud bang.
The thick arm of the catapult was smashed.
Suddenly, the upper half of the catapult flew out.
Several Chu soldiers around it were smashed into meat paste.
Next.
Mulan began her miraculous performance.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …"
All the catapults within her firing range were shot by her, and then exploded violently.
Of course, there was gunpowder in the giant arrow.
But it was more than enough to blow up a piece of wood.
The more than ten catapults on the Chu royal city wall were all destroyed.
Then, Mulan drew her bow and nocked an arrow, aiming at the Chu commander-in-chief, Lian Jing.
This was a poisonous arrow, cyanide poison. Once hit, there was no doubt that one would die.
Even if it was just a scratch, it would still be a dead end.
"Swoosh …"
Mulan's arrow flew out like lightning.
"Good!" The commander-in-chief, Lian Jing, roared and slashed with his big sword.
"Clang …"
The arrow shot by Mulan was directly knocked away.
Lian Jing was almost seventy years old, but he was still so brave?
Lian Jing was also shocked. Who was this woman?
How could her archery be so amazing?
Although her arrow was knocked away, Lian Jing's arm couldn't help but feel slightly numb.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh …"
The Second Nirvana Army and the Sand Barbaric archers were still shooting crazily.
Without the threat of the catapults, the two armies were within a hundred meters of the city wall.
The lethality was even more amazing!
The tens of thousands of soldiers on the city wall were so shot that they couldn't even raise their heads.
"Counterattack! Shoot! Shoot!"
The general of the Chu garrison roared.
But it was useless.
This distance was beyond the range of the archers of Chu.
The arrows of the Chu army were even more amazing, densely packed.
In a short moment, hundreds of thousands of arrows were shot and stuck on the ground, like a hedgehog.
Next.
An infuriating scene appeared.
The First Nirvana Army of Shenlang actually went to the front to retrieve the arrows, relying on their sturdy armor.
After all, his army was on a long journey, and each soldier could carry at most two to three hundred arrows.
It wouldn't take long for them to finish shooting.
At this moment, hundreds of thousands of arrows were retrieved.
The general of Chu was at a loss for a moment.
What should they do next?
Should they shoot? Or not shoot?
Shoot?
They couldn't hit the target at this distance.
If they didn't shoot, they would be completely suppressed.
Tens of thousands of soldiers were suppressed by thousands of soldiers.
It was a great humiliation to the morale of the army!
… …
Lian Jing, the commander-in-chief, almost vomited blood.
He had never fought such a stupid battle.
He had always opposed the recruitment of ruffians into the garrison.
Fighting a war didn't depend on numbers.
He thought it would be enough to rely on twenty thousand city guards and ten thousand imperial guards.
But the Queen insisted on conscripting all sorts of people.
Now, the top of the city wall was in chaos.
With a large number of casualties, this group of people immediately wailed like ghosts and howled like wolves.
There was no discipline at all.
Lian Jing immediately ordered all the civilian soldiers to retreat from the city wall as reserve troops.
Only the imperial guards and city guards were left on the city wall.
As expected, the top of the city wall became quiet.
The thirty thousand soldiers raised their shields to block the rain of arrows from the sky.
The casualties instantly decreased.
The situation was stabilized!
The Chu commander-in-chief Lian Jing couldn't help but sneer.
Shenlang was still too naive.
Your archer army is very powerful, but if you want to attack the city, you still have to climb the city wall.
You don't even have siege ladders. I want to see how you can climb the city wall.
But at this moment!
A giant wearing super heavy armor appeared. He carried a large sword on his back and a box as he charged towards the city gate.
This person was, of course, the Big Fool!
The Chu general shouted, "Use fire arrows, shoot him, shoot him …"
Countless arrows shot towards the Big Fool.
But it was futile.
The armor on his body was frighteningly thick. How could an arrow pierce through it?
Soon, the Big Fool reached the city gate.
"Boulders, smash, smash …"
As the order was given.
Countless rolling logs and stones smashed towards the Big Fool.
But it was useless!
When dozens of kilograms of stones hit him, he only staggered for a while.
They couldn't stop him at all.
His armor weighed four or five hundred kilograms. When the stones hit him, they only made a small dent.
"Boiling oil, boiling oil …"
The Chu general ordered.
Then, several strong men of Chu lifted the boiling oil pot and were about to sprinkle it.
The Big Fool was very powerful, but the boiling oil couldn't stop him.
And at this moment.
Jin Mulan and Queen Sharman shot arrows continuously.
They aimed at the strong men of Chu who were carrying the oil pot on the city wall.
Both of them were excellent archers. One arrow for one.
"Ah … ah … ah …"
After these strong men were shot to death, the boiling oil pot fell directly on the city wall. The boiling oil splashed on the surrounding Chu soldiers and immediately cooked them.
"Ah … ah … ah …"
The Chu soldiers on the city wall screamed miserably.
The Big Fool showed his prowess!
He picked up a black iron sword of two or three hundred kilograms and slashed wildly at the city gate.
The Chu general was shocked.
What … what is he doing?
Does this big fool want to cut a big hole in the gate?
Dream on!
The city gate was half a foot thick, and half of it was iron.
How can you cut it?
Even if you cut it for a day and a night, you won't be able to cut it down.
After a while, the layer of wood covering the surface of the city gate was all smashed, revealing the iron plate inside.
Next, the Big Fool took out a bag of things and directly stuck it on the iron plate of the city gate.
What is this?
Shenlang's secret weapon came on again.
Thermite.
It was the thing that melted the big iron pillar of the tall building of the State of Yue Yinyuan Association last time.
It was a mixture of aluminum powder and ferric oxide powder in a certain proportion.
With the resources at Shenlang's disposal, the manufacturing process was no longer difficult.
Because its formula was very simple.
But … aluminum was a deadly thing.
It was too, too scarce.
Of course, it actually had a lot of reserves in the earth's crust.
But they all existed in the form of aluminosilicate ores. With Shenlang's current smelting foundation, it was too difficult to extract pure aluminum.
It was relatively simple to extract aluminum with bauxite.
Therefore, the annual output of the entire Jinshan Island mine was still frighteningly low.
He made two sets of armor for Mulan, then made some thermite, and made some special armors. Then it was all used up.
And the thermite that the Big Fool put on the city gate at this time was dozens of kilograms.
He inserted the igniter.
After the Big Fool ignited it, he suddenly turned around and ran.
Because Shenlang had told him that this thing was very terrible. Even hundreds of kilograms of armor couldn't defend against it.
In the blink of an eye, the Big Fool ran dozens of meters away.
In a short time, the igniter burned out.
Then …
"Boom …"
It was not like an explosion.
There was no loud noise.
But the light that burst out almost surpassed the sun.
An astonishing white flame suddenly burst out, releasing a temperature of 2500 degrees Celsius.
All of a sudden!
A big hole was burned through the thick city wall.
The garrison behind the city gate was completely stunned!
What, what the hell is this thing?
Such a thick city gate was burned through?
What should they do next?
The Big Fool rushed up again.
He slammed the city gate.
There was a burst of loud noises, and the city gate shook violently.
But it didn't open yet.
Although this thermite burned through the iron plate, it didn't burn through the huge iron gate bolt inside.
So, the Big Fool put another pack of thermite on it.
He ignited it again, and then quickly turned around and ran away.
"Put out the fire, put out the fire …"
The garrison general inside the city gate stepped forward, desperately trying to put out the igniter.
But the next second …
"Boom …"
An astonishing flame burst out once again.
The whole body of the garrison general of the Chu State was instantly burned.
At the same time.
The huge iron gate bolt of the city gate was directly burned red, and molten iron kept dripping down.
"Ah … Ah …"
The Big Fool suddenly roared.
His whole body accelerated wildly.
Like a tank, he charged wildly.
"Bang …"
His whole body hit the city gate hard.
There was a loud noise.
The huge city gate of the capital of the Chu State opened!
Because the thick iron gate bolt had been melted, how could it withstand the great force of the Big Fool?
The Chu army was completely shocked.
This, this indestructible city gate was opened just like that?
It was broken just like that!
My God, what the hell is going on?
Why can't I understand the scene in front of me at all?
Then, the Big Fool jerked his huge black iron sword and rushed up to the hundreds of garrison soldiers in the city gate alone.
"Swish, swish, swish …"
There was simply no space left for them.
All the enemy soldiers who stood in front of the Big Fool had only one end. They were directly split in half together with their armor.
They really died without an intact corpse.
"Bang …"
He suddenly slammed his sword horizontally.
More than a dozen Chu soldiers flew directly into the sky.
The Big Fool, like a tank, rolled over.
On the battlefield, the Big Fool was half a bug. Even the Sword King Li Qianqiu was far less powerful than him.
He alone crushed hundreds of people.
Then, Bitter Joy shouted!
"First Nirvana Army, enter the city!"
Two thousand soldiers of the First Nirvana Army marched into the city.
Although their armor was not as heavy as before, it still weighed forty to fifty kilograms. The modao in their hands was also not as heavy as before, but it still weighed forty kilograms and was completely forged from steel.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
Two thousand soldiers of the First Nirvana Army marched into the capital of the Chu State like a flood of steel.
The Chu General Lian Jing's eyes almost popped out of his sockets.
Was … was he seeing a ghost?
The city gate was breached just like that?
What kind of trick did Shen Lang use this time?
But it was too late to be shocked.
Because the enemy had already entered the city.
He roared, "Block, block, kill the Yue army!"
Following his order, countless soldiers of the Chu State charged towards the Big Fool and the First Nirvana Army.
But …
This was inside the city.
What a coincidence!
This city gate was also known as the Xuanwu Gate, and inside it was also the incomparably wide Xuanwu Avenue.
The road was a few dozen meters wide, allowing the two thousand soldiers of the First Nirvana Army to form a perfect battle formation.
The army of Chu State charged forward, wave after wave.
But in close combat, the First Nirvana Army was invincible!
It was cut in half.
Two halves with one slash!
Swish swish swish!
Two thousand Mo Sabers slashed down continuously.
Like a slaughtering machine, he easily cut every enemy that charged at him in half.
The battle at the city gate was a one-sided massacre.
The First Nirvana Army built a defensive position in the city.
"The second Nirvana Army has entered the city!"
"The Third Nirvana Army has entered the city!"
A moment later!
Nearly three thousand soldiers of the Second Nirvana Army and more than four thousand Sand Barbaric archers of Queen Sharman all entered the city.
"Change formation!"
The two thousand Nirvana Army soldiers changed their formation and turned into a huge 'mouth' formation.
The Second Nirvana Army and the godly archers of the Sand Barbarian Tribe, a total of more than seven thousand people, entered the huge mouth formation.
The First Nirvana Army, which was invincible in close combat and armor, was like a great steel wall.
The invincible archers from the Archer Alliance shot out a rain of arrows.
This coordination was simply perfect!
The Xuanwu Avenue was so wide, it was a first-class slaughterhouse.
Moreover, this was no longer shooting from a low position, but from a flat ground.
"Swish swish swish swish …"
Within a hundred meters, the Second Nirvana Army was almost invincible.
Although the godly archers of the Sand Barbarian Tribe were slightly weaker, they were still very lethal.
Two stone bows could penetrate any armor of Chu State within a hundred meters.
At the beginning, the Chu State army kept charging forward to fight the First Nirvana Army in close combat.
Like moths flying into a flame.
But at the back.
They could no longer get close.
Because the rain of arrows from the Second Nirvana Army and the Sand Barbarian Tribe was too shocking.
It was a completely one-sided massacre.
Wave after wave of arrows reaped lives in a frenzy.
The imperial guards of Chu State were extremely brave.
Following the commander's orders, they charged forward without fear of death.
But in the face of this crazy rain of arrows.
Everything was in vain.
The ten thousand imperial guards were almost completely annihilated.
The city guards were not first-line elites.
But this was the capital of Chu State after all, and any guard was filled with a sense of honor.
So it was not until thirty percent of Chu State's city guards were dead that they completely collapsed and fled in all directions.
And the servants of the rich and noble families had long fled like birds and beasts.
As for the Jianghu heroes and gang members who had come to render meritorious service, they were nowhere to be seen. They disappeared into the streets and alleys of the capital without a trace.
After a full four hours of fierce fighting!
The Chu State army was defeated like a landslide.
More than twenty thousand died, and the remaining tens of thousands fled.
Lian Jing led the last of the elites and retreated into the inner city of the capital!
Two hours later.
The inner city of the capital of Chu had fallen.
Lian Jing led the remnants of the army and retreated into the palace.
Ning Zheng and Shen Lang led nine thousand soldiers to attack the palace of Chu State!
… …
The palace of Chu State was indeed magnificent.
It covered more than two square kilometers, and was layered with carved railings and jade walls. It was magnificent.
There were more than ten thousand rooms in the palace!
Lian Jing led four to five thousand soldiers and retreated into the palace, intending to make a last stand.
He no longer wanted to win against Shen Lang, but he could hold his ground until reinforcements arrived.
At most two or three days, tens of thousands of soldiers would come to the capital.
Shen Lang only had a few thousand soldiers, and they would not be able to hold out for long in the heart of the enemy's territory.
The palace had wide halls and plazas, but it also had narrow alleys and tightly packed rooms. It would be difficult for Shen Lang's army to fight.
The Mo Sword of the First Nirvana Army was very long and needed to be wielded widely, which was difficult to use in the palace. Archers were even more passive in such a place.
And Shen Lang's army was very unfamiliar with the terrain of the Chu palace.
Chu's Lian Jing firmly believed that they could fight a beautiful counterattack within the palace, and cause huge casualties to Shen Lang's army.
Shen Lang and Ning Zheng stood outside the palace gates.
The Big Fool suddenly hugged a huge flagpole, and Mulan and Shen Lang climbed up to the top of the flagpole, overlooking the entire palace.
No!
The houses were too densely packed.
This would cause the Chu army to launch a sneak attack.
The Sand Barbaric archers were fine, as they were good at close combat in narrow spaces.
But the First and Second Nirvana Armies could not. Once they entered the palace, there would definitely be huge casualties.
What should they do?
As long as they took down the Chu palace, they would have won the battle.
But Shen Lang could not afford to suffer huge casualties.
The First and Second Nirvana Armies were too precious, and even if a third of them died, he would be heartbroken.
Queen Sharman's meaning was very clear.
She was willing to lead the Sand Barbaric army into the palace, but the First and Second Nirvana Armies would also attack.
It was impossible for her Sand Barbaric warriors to fight at the front while Shen Lang's army watched from the outside.
After a few minutes of hesitation.
Shen Lang ordered, "Burn the Chu palace!"
As soon as he said this.
Ning Zheng was astonished, Mu Lan was astonished, and the Sword King Li Qianqiu was shocked.
This … this was a crime against the world.
King Chu was not only the ruler of Chu, but also the king of the Great Yan Empire.
If they burned the Chu palace.
The whole world would be shaken.
Shen Lang said, "In any case, I definitely do not want the First and Second Nirvana Armies to suffer huge casualties. This is a war that will topple a nation, not a meal. I will not massacre the citizens of Chu, I will only burn the Chu palace. What's wrong with that? "
Ning Zheng glanced at Shen Lang and said, "Fine! But I will give this order! "
Then, Ning Zheng shouted, "Queen of Chu, listen up, Ambassador of Chu Lian Jing, listen up, I am Ning Zheng! I order you to surrender immediately, or I will burn the Chu palace. "
As soon as he said this.
The people of Chu were shocked.
Was Ning Zheng crazy?
Burning down the Chu palace?
This would infuriate the entire eastern countries.
Although Chu and Yue were enemies, they were both vassals of the Great Yan Empire.
To a certain extent, they were brothers.
"Don't surrender, don't surrender."
"Ning Zheng will definitely not set the palace on fire."
"Once it is burned, it will shock the world and infuriate the kings."
Ning Zheng lit a stick of incense.
After the incense burned, if the Queen of Chu and the rest did not surrender, he would immediately set the palace on fire.
A quarter of an hour later!
The incense burned out.
The guards in the palace refused to surrender.
Ning Zheng ordered.
Set the Chu palace on fire!
A moment later!
The fire soared to the sky!
The entire Chu palace was set ablaze.
Almost the entire sky was completely dyed red!
The people of the Chu capital cried when they saw this.
Those Jianghu heroes and gang members who had escaped rushed out again.
The army that besieged Shen Lang.
However …
It was useless to rely on courage.
It was another one-sided massacre.
After more than ten thousand people were killed, the Chu army fled again.
The fire in the Chu palace spread wildly, and in the blink of an eye, it had engulfed half of the palace.
The inside of the palace was like hell.
Everyone in the palace fled one after another, rushing out and kneeling on the ground to surrender.
At this point!
The capital of Chu had completely fallen!
