Odahara City was the most fortified city in the Nihon civilization. Moreover, when Yang Rui had come to investigate earlier, the defenses of the city had been extremely tight. However, it was now late at night. Yang Rui circled the skies above Odahara City and discovered a loophole that he could exploit. Le – Wen –
This loophole was the anti-air defenses of Odahara City.
When Yang Rui had come to investigate Odahara City, it had been daytime. Plenty of archers had been stationed on the city walls, the various defensive structures such as arrow towers, and even the roof of Skyguard Tower. Not only were they capable of suppressing the enemies attacking the city from the front, but they were also a sufficient threat to ordinary flying units.
At this moment, perhaps because it was nighttime, the defensive power of the Heaven Guardian Pavilion in Odawara City had been completely removed.
Odahara City's Skyguard Tower was close to Mount Hachiman, which the city leaned on. The mountain was separated from the city by a moat, and it was also located at the highest point of the city. At the same time, Skyguard Towers were scattered throughout the area. This area was originally the safest location in the entire city.
Under normal circumstances, the attacking forces would never choose this direction to attack. Moreover, even if they did choose this area as their target, there would be no place for them to land. In fact, they might not even be able to reach their target.
It was probably due to this reason that Odahara City had removed the guards at the top of Skyguard Tower at night. After all, it was the middle of the night. The roof of Skyguard Tower was unavoidable from being exposed to the elements.
There was nothing wrong with such a change in deployment. It was hardly a loophole in the city's defenses. However, it was an opportunity for Yang Rui. Even if the Castle in the Sky could not enter Odahara City, Yang Rui still had his flying pets.
Moreover, Yang Rui still had nine Commanding Tokens and one Terracotta Tiger Talisman. If Yang Rui entered Odahara City alone, it would be the equivalent of bringing nine First Grade historical generals into the city. At the same time, he would also be able to summon a hundred thousand Fifth Grade terracotta soldiers to aid him in battle!
If Yang Rui's forces could attack from within the city. When that happened, no matter how sturdy Odahara City was, it would not be able to escape the fate of being conquered.
Yang Rui and Wako Uesugi used the Castle in the Sky to reach a small peak of Mount Hachiman. Their vision could already cover the entirety of Odahara City and the roof of Skyguard Tower. They spent another fifteen minutes carefully grasping the situation within the city. In particular, the side closest to Mount Hachiman...
After some discussion and preparation. Yang Rui took out the two giant birds that he had brought with him from Sky City and stepped onto them with Uesugi. They swooped down from the small peak of Mount Hachiman and headed straight for the Heaven Guardian Tower in Odawara City.
Even if the Hōjō Clan's defenders in the city were lax in dealing with the threat from the air, there was still a certain degree of danger in using such a method to enter the city. It was nothing for Yang Rui, who was a player. However, there was no need for Wako Uesugi to take such a risk.
In the end, Yang Rui was unable to outmaneuver Wako Uesugi. The kid seemed to be very stubborn about being able to ride a bird. Moreover, he was just as stubborn about ambushes and sieges. Yang Rui could not persuade him otherwise. That was why he agreed to let Wako Uesugi 'fly' into the city with him.
At the very most, should the kid encounter any unexpected danger, Yang Rui would still have the Rebirth Pills on him. However, Yang Rui did not want that to happen.
Yang Rui's concern did not come to fruition. Using a flying pet to carry them into the city was much safer compared to the time when Yang Rui rode the Flying Carpet. Even after Yang Rui and Wako Uesugi reached the top of Mount Hachiman, the defenders in the city did not notice them.
When Yang Rui and Wako Uesugi successfully reached the top of Mount Hachiman, it meant that Odahara City was in grave danger.
Yang Rui did not waste any time. The moment he reached the top of Mount Hachiman, he quickly brought out the nine Command Tokens and one Tiger Soldier Talisman. First, he used the Command Token (Bai Qi).
[System prompt: Respected Player Blazing Sun, do you want to use the Command Token (Bai Qi)? Please choose …]
"Choose to use!"
Yang Rui made his choice. The Command Token with the name 'Bai Qi' on it flashed with a golden light. In the blink of an eye, a terracotta soldier appeared before Yang Rui. It was the same as the terracotta soldier with the surname Bai that Yang Rui had encountered in the Terracotta Soldier instance dungeon.
Even though Yang Rui had revealed this to Wako Uesugi before, the scene of the terracotta soldier being awakened caused Wako Uesugi's mouth to gape wide open. She curiously stepped forward to stroke the terracotta soldier.
Wako Uesugi was not the only one surprised. Truth be told, as the user, Yang Rui was also filled with curiosity. Back then, he did not know what would happen after using the Command Token. After seeing it for himself, however, he was able to relax.
The Command Token could be used smoothly. This was the prerequisite for Yang Rui to be able to attack the city from the inside. Additionally, after summoning out this terracotta soldier that was based on 'Bai Qi', he seemed to have formed a connection with Yang Rui. Thus, there was no need for Yang Rui to use any additional actions or words to control the terracotta soldier. Yang Rui did not need to use any additional actions or words to control the terracotta soldier.
At present, Wako Uesugi was curious enough to step forward to stroke the terracotta soldier. The first thing the terracotta soldier did was to ask Yang Rui what to do with it. Under Yang Rui's control, the terracotta soldier obediently accepted Wako Uesugi's stroke.
After figuring out how to control the terracotta soldier, Yang Rui released the remaining eight Command Tokens one by one. Together, they charged into the interior of Heavensguard Pavilion.
The space on the roof of Heavensguard Pavilion and every floor was limited. Yang Rui had intended to use the Tiger Soldier Tally at the same time. However, he was notified that they could not be used normally.
However, this also meant that there would not be too many Houjo Clan soldiers inside Heavensguard Pavilion. Moreover, Yang Rui, Wako Uesugi, and the nine terracotta soldiers were all extraordinarily powerful. Moreover, their sudden appearance inside Heavensguard Pavilion had caught the Houjo Clan soldiers off guard.
As such, Yang Rui's group quickly made their way down to the fifth floor of Heavensguard Pavilion and arrived at the empty space outside of Heavensguard Pavilion.
[System Notification: Esteemed Player Blazing Sun, would you like to use the Tiger Soldier Tally? Please choose …]
When they arrived at the empty space in front of Heavensguard Pavilion, the Tiger Soldier Tally was indeed usable. Without any hesitation, Yang Rui summoned all one hundred thousand Fifth Grade terracotta soldiers.
At this point, the outcome of the battle had been decided. Yang Rui sent two terracotta soldiers to lead a portion of the terracotta soldiers into Heavensguard Pavilion. Meanwhile, he, Wako Uesugi, and the remaining seven terracotta soldiers led a portion of the terracotta soldiers in various directions of Odawara City.
It was now midnight. The Houjo Clan soldiers inside Odawara City could be said to be retreating in defeat against these strange opponents.
"Dammit!"
On the other hand, Yang Rui and the two terracotta soldiers (originally modeled after Bai Qi and Li Xin) soon ran into a Houjo Clan general. (To be continued.)
