Just as the Uesugi child had said, even after four hours had passed since her troops had arrived at Kuroshio City, she still hadn't launched any attacks.
After four hours, Wako Uesugi directly sent a soldier to the outskirts of Blackwater City to make a symbolic announcement, hoping that Kuroda Hidekazu's troops would realize their mistake and turn back. Then, he quickly retreated.
At this moment, the troops of Blackwater City had no possibility of surrendering. Even if a portion of them wanted to surrender, they had no way of leaving Blackwater City.
Wako Uesugi seemed to have already calculated this point. Hence, she did not dwell too much on the details of persuading them to surrender. Even some of the wavering soldiers in the city felt that it was a pity. Or perhaps, Wako Uesugi did it on purpose.
After that, Wako Uesugi once again used the heavy trebuchets and other siege weapons to bombard Blackwater City. This was a stark contrast to the previous persuasion.
"You guys are not surrendering, you guys are not fighting. Don't tell me you guys don't have the courage to this extent? Are you all a bunch of useless cowards? Who dares to leave the city and fight me alone? "
After blasting another hole in Blackwater City's city wall, Wako Uesugi neatly dressed and paced back and forth outside Blackwater City. Her words were very sharp and coupled with her slightly young body, it made people feel unconvinced and easily attracted a lot of hatred.
To Kuroda Hidekazu's troops in Blackwater City, if they had the confidence to win, choosing to fight one on one was not a bad choice. After all, Wako Uesugi had already forced them into a very passive state.
There were also Kuroda Hidekazu's subordinates in Blackwater City who had such thoughts. However, in the end, they were all suppressed. This caused everyone to be puzzled by Kuroda Hidekazu's attitude.
Wako Uesugi challenged for a while before retreating back into the army formation. Next, it was the turn of the siege weapons to launch their attacks. This continued until evening and a huge hole of several kilometers long was knocked out on one side of Blackwater City's city wall.
If there was no moat to obstruct them, both sides would be able to engage in a melee battle!
When night fell, Yang Rui once again found Wako Uesugi. This time, it was a familiar face. The child's guards did not obstruct him too much. They only passed on the message and allowed Yang Rui to enter the child's tent.
"Child, you can send your troops in batches to Blackwater City at night to shout and feign an attack. While dragging down the city's guards, at the same time, you can also numb the enemy's consciousness. I will find an opportunity to directly attack the city's Heavenguard Pavilion. with the outside and inside, we can smoothly take down Blackwater City.
Yang Rui suggested to Shang Shan. He then told Shang Shan about how he had taken down the Tri-Mountain Apricot City during the large-scale system storyline. He also told Shang Shan that he intended to use the same method this time. The priority was to attack Heavenguard Pavilion.
Back then, Yang Rui had been able to directly invade Heavensguard Pavilion because of the convenience of the Wind Carpet. He had swooped down from the Castle in the Sky and used the Fifth Grade female personal guard's' Shadow Following 'ability to drag one of his personal guards into Heavensguard Pavilion. That was how he had managed to take down Tri-Mountain Apricot City's Heavensguard Pavilion.
However, the process was still a little dangerous. The Flying Carpet's altitude was limited to three meters above the ground. Heavenguard Pavilion's altitude was much higher than that. Castle in the Sky could not possibly land at the corresponding height.
This resulted in the Flying Carpet's incredible speed when diving down from a high altitude. There was also a trace of luck involved in the process. Even with Yang Rui's current strength, there was still a certain degree of danger.
"My Lord, you must not. Although this method is effective, the risk my Lord will face is not small. That is why I must not use my Lord's method."
However, Yang Rui did not expect that Wako Uesugi would immediately and resolutely reject the idea as soon as he finished explaining it.
"If my Lord wants to help, why don't we use a diversion tactic? I will lead the troops to attack from one direction, while my Lord will take advantage of the chaos to attack from another direction. Even if there are more casualties, it is still better than my Lord taking the risk. "
After Wako Uesugi rejected Yang Rui's plan, she immediately proposed her own.
It seemed like it was just as Yang Rui had found. Wako Uesugi had read the Four Five Scriptures since young. She was very familiar with Zg's traditional culture, and had also inherited many of its essence in terms of strategy.
Even if the diversion tactic she proposed was not much out of the ordinary, it could still be regarded as a proper strategy.
And no matter what, Wako Uesugi was never willing to let Yang Rui take the risk. That night, Yang Rui and Wako Uesugi did not take any corresponding action. Yang Rui could only wait for the opportunity in the Sky Castle.
If it were not for the fact that it was not good to expose his identity clearly. Yang Rui could directly pull out the 200,000 to 300,000 soldiers in the Sky Castle and forcefully take down Blackwater City. However, that would expose himself on one hand, and it might also bring a lot of trouble to Wako Uesugi.
When participating in the second large-scale system plot in the Nihon civilization area, Yang Rui was very careful to hide his true identity. At that time, because he was quite elusive, he was even called the "Angel Corps", "Shinobi Group", "Ship Killer", and other titles.
Although there were some speculations about Yang Rui among the players, and in fact, the large player organization led by Xiangchuansheng had almost confirmed Yang Rui's participation, it was just that they did not announce it.
However, there was still a big difference between the information obtained by the players and the confirmation of Yang Rui's identity by the entire Nihon civilization area. Especially among the NP forces, if Yang Rui was involved and caused Wako Uesugi to be targeted, it would be more of a help than a help.
Therefore, Yang Rui could not easily expose his identity.
After arriving at the Sky Castle, Yang Rui continued to think of several channels, such as lending Gao Shun, Yu Jin, and other famous historical generals to hide by Wako Uesugi's side, or mixing his troops with Wako Uesugi's troops.
Yang Rui even thought of another chess piece he buried in the Nihon civilization area, Takeda Nobutaka of Johto. His identity was now the guardian of Johto.
Echigo belonged to the Hokuroku region, while Johto belonged to the Tokaido region. There was also Johto in between. Although it was not very far, there was still some distance.
However, this distance was actually not too big of an obstacle for Yang Rui who had the Sky Castle. If he mobilized Takeda Nobutaka's troops to help, he should be able to complete the trip in less than a day.
At the same time, in the historical facts, Wako Uesugi was sometimes allied with the Hojo Clan of Johto, and sometimes with the Rikishi. At this time, because of Yang Rui, Takeda Nobutaka was given space to survive.
He just didn't know if Takeda Nobutaka, the guardian of Johto, was having a good time. (To be continued.)
