Three days later, Wushuang City. North of the city.
Zhong Shan led the first battalion of the Great Xuan Army, consisting of two hundred thousand men. Behind the two hundred thousand men was a floating island. It was a very small floating island that Zhong Shan had borrowed from a sect. There was only a small house on it.
When they were not far away, Zhong Shan waved his hand.
"Roar ~ ~ ~ ~ ~"
The army of two hundred thousand roared and stopped at the same time.
Zhong Shan and Ah Da stood on the top of a mountain, looking at the former Wushuang City from afar.
The gate of Wushuang City was closed, and a large number of soldiers stood on the top of the city tower. It was a solemn atmosphere.
"Wushuang City? How do we attack this kind of Immortal City? " Zhong Shan said with a smile. Obviously, he was prepared and was just talking to Ah Da to pass the time.
"Peerless City's city walls are a single entity that cannot be breached. Only the city gate can be breached. However, the person who breached the city gate must at least be someone with absolute strength like Great Emperor Nalan or the Great Xuan King to be able to breach the gate and enter. Generally, attacking a city can only be done in the sky. "Ah Da said.
"In the sky?" Zhong Shan asked with a smile.
"Yes, for example, there is a huge formation in the sky of Wushuang City, which prevents people from going out. If they fly into the sky, they will be killed by thousands of lightning bolts. However, people outside can go in. However, there can't be any traces of magic. Once there are traces of magic, they will be killed by thousands of lightning bolts." Ah Da said.
"That is to say, people who fly in the sky must be like the rain falling from the sky, falling freely. Otherwise, if they use magic, they will be killed." Zhong Shan said.
"That's right. I heard that when a spell is used, it will cause the laws of the world to become slightly chaotic. This will be sensed by the formation. However, if you don't use a spell, you'll definitely be shot to death by the arrows in the city. There are not many people who can fly up the city wall. If they risk their lives and rush in, they will be killed by thousands of arrows. Therefore, it's too difficult to attack a city! "Ah Da said.
"So what if it's difficult? We're about to breach the city. "Zhong Shan laughed.
"But, sir, we don't know how many people will die by then, and they will all be the citizens of the city." Ah Da sighed.
Whether they live or die is still in their hands. I didn't force them. It all depends on their heart. If they aren't greedy, they won't have to die. If they are greedy, their life and death are up to the heavens. As the saying goes, wealth comes from danger. After those people went back, the subordinates of the organization must have done an internal distribution of benefits. The first batch to die will definitely get the most treasures. I can only watch them coldly. Merciful people don't command troops, "Zhong Shan said.
"Yes!" Ah Da nodded.
The merciful cannot command an army. That's right, if one is still worried about personal gains and losses during a war, what is the point of fighting a war?
Zhong Shan gently pushed his hand, and the generals quickly moved the small floating island in front of Zhong Shan. They continued to push until they reached an empty space between Zhong Shan and Peerless City. Floating high in the sky.
The generals quickly retreated, leaving the floating island in the sky. It was a small floating island with a simple house on it.
Zhong Shan gently waved his hand, and a soldier took a letter and quickly flew towards Peerless City.
When the two hundred thousand army appeared in the north of Peerless City, someone saw them.
Peerless City Lord's Mansion.
"Report ~ ~ ~ ~"
A long report came from outside the mansion, and a soldier quickly rushed into the main hall.
Wu An was discussing something with a group of generals. Suddenly interrupted by the soldier, he immediately looked at the soldier.
"Reporting to the commander, a large number of Great Havenlaw Dynasty soldiers have appeared in the north of the city. The one leading them is Zhong Shan," the soldier immediately reported.
"Hu ~ ~ ~ ~" Wu An immediately stood up.
"What?" Wu An said in disbelief.
"A large number of Great Havenlaw Dynasty soldiers have appeared in the north of the city. The one leading them is Zhong Shan," the soldier said again.
"Zhong Shan? He wants to attack the city? How many people did he bring? "Wu An asked.
"I'm not sure. They are too far away, and I can only roughly see. Moreover, I don't know if there are soldiers hidden in the forest. I've already sent scouts to investigate, "the soldier said.
"Let's go!" Wu An said, and then led the generals to the tower in the north of the city.
Not long after, they arrived at the tower in the north of the city. Standing on the tower, they looked at the distant north. They could faintly see a large number of soldiers, and there was a very lofty floating island.
Floating island?
Why was there a floating island between the two armies?
Wu An could see with a glance that it was the simplest floating island, without any power or threat.
At this time, a scout returned.
"Reporting to the commander, the other side has already investigated. The two hundred thousand army should be the first battalion of the Great Xuan Army," the scout said while kneeling.
"Okay." Wu An nodded and waved that person away.
And from the distance, another soldier flew over. However, it was the enemy's soldier.
"Who are you?" A person on the tower shouted.
"I am the commander's messenger, and I have a letter to give to General Wu An," the soldier said.
"Throw it on the city wall," the person on the tower shouted.
"Hu." The soldier threw the letter on the tower and then turned around to leave.
When the two armies fought, they didn't kill the messenger, so the soldier could safely return.
On the tower, everyone looked at Wu An and the letter in his hand.
Wu An's expression was a bit strange, but he still opened the letter and carefully read it.
After parting in the city in the sky, the Calm Martial Ruler still remembered Zhong Shan's spirit. He had wanted to invite the Calm Martial Ruler to have a chat, but back then, Zhong Shan's status was low, and he had no power, no influence, and no freedom.
Governor Yi Yan had once invited him to join the Great Yu Imperial Dynasty. Zhong Shan had also thought about it, but back then, the Great Yu Imperial Dynasty was very complicated. Once he joined, he would have been doomed. Even so, he was surrounded by eight million soldiers from King Julu. His heart was filled with sorrow.
Because of his relationship with the princess, the Great Xuan King gave him two hundred thousand soldiers. However, the Great Xuan King had already made arrangements. Zhong Shan was just a puppet, controlling the army on the surface, but in reality, he was just a puppet. His heart was a bit depressed.
Today, in order to show my sincerity, I've shown the two hundred thousand soldiers to the Calm Martial Ruler. I've borrowed a floating island and want to invite the Calm Martial Ruler in for a chat. There are only three people, you, me, and Ah Da.
Zhong Shan pays his respects!
Looking at Zhong Shan's letter, Wu An's heart was filled with shock.
"General." A general called out.
Wu An gave the letter to him. Several generals passed it around.
"General, this Zhong Shan, he wants to join us?" A general excitedly said.
"If general can persuade Zhong Shan to surrender, it will be a great merit." Another general said.
"No, something's wrong. There might be some scheme. "Another general doubtfully said.
"Scheme? No matter what scheme it is, with his two hundred thousand army in front of us, there definitely won't be any problems. Two hundred thousand soldiers can't take down Peerless City. "The previous general said.
"General, what do you think?" Another person asked.
"I'm prepared to take a look." Wu An thought about it and said.
"But, this one feels that this is Zhong Shan's scheme. Sir, you shouldn't take the risk." That person said.
"Take the risk? This isn't considered dangerous. That floating island, I can come and go as I please. Only, we still have to be careful. Gather all the soldiers that are resting. Gather six hundred thousand soldiers at the city's north gate and watch over Zhong Shan's army. Without my orders, no one is allowed to leave the city and no one is allowed to fight. "Wu An said.
"Yes!" Everyone immediately replied.
Like this, everyone was relieved. There was no way anything would go wrong. Six hundred thousand soldiers watching over two hundred thousand and with Peerless City as a natural barrier, Zhong Shan wouldn't be able to play any tricks even if he had heavenly skills.
With Peerless City's mobilization, the number of soldiers on the city walls increased. Very quickly, the scouts reported the numbers to Zhong Shan in the distance.
"Sir, as you said before, there really are six hundred thousand soldiers at the city's north gate. Then the other three gates have at most three hundred thousand soldiers each." Ah Da said excitedly.
"Yes, let's go. To show our sincerity, let's go to the floating island first." Zhong Shan said with a smile.
"Yes!" Ah Da said excitedly.
Zhong Shan and Ah Da slowly flew towards the floating island. On the city's north gate tower, Wu An also saw the two people flying in the distance.
"Remember, be careful of those two hundred thousand soldiers at all times." Wu An finally ordered.
"Yes!" All the generals replied.
Nodding, Wu An felt that his instructions were foolproof. He also stepped out of the gate tower and slowly flew towards the floating island in the distance.
South of Peerless City, in a valley.
Shui Wuhen led a hundred and fifty thousand remnant soldiers, no, they should be elite soldiers now. A hundred and fifty thousand soldiers were lying in ambush in the valley. The remaining three hundred thousand soldiers were sent somewhere unknown by Zhong Shan. Not far away, a few people flew over. These were the three hundred people that had talked with Zhong Shan in the valley a few days ago.
"General Shui. How long do we have to wait? We have already delayed for an hour, and we still have to open the city's south gate. Isn't this a waste of our time? Including the time to attack the city, we only have two days after entering the city. Are you planning to delay until night time? "A man said anxiously.
"Yes, General Shui, the commander wants us to wait, but some people are already getting impatient. If you don't give the order to attack the city, they will go by themselves." Another man said.
Shui Wuhen looked at these people and sighed slightly, but still said, "Let's wait for the commander's signal. We still need you to suppress the citizens of Peerless City. Otherwise, once we are exposed, all our previous efforts will be wasted."
"Sigh!" Everyone sighed anxiously, but there was nothing they could do.
Two days. In two days, other than the official residence, they could loot as much as they wanted. Many people knew that there were treasures in some places, and they were afraid that they would be robbed first.
