"Kill!"
"Boom!"
"Quick, follow up quickly. Don't retreat. Whoever dares to take half a step back will be killed without mercy!”
Outside the Wild Jujube Gate, an extremely tragic siege was taking place.
Wanyan Zongwang's commander flag had already moved to the north side of Suanzao Gate.
Under Wanyan Zongwang's personal supervision, tens of thousands of Jin soldiers carried ladders, shields, and sandbags as they advanced step by step toward Tokyo.
"Reporting, reporting to the vice commander, our vanguard has already crossed the moat and attacked the city of Tokyo!”
After receiving the report from the messenger, Wanyan Zong Wang was delighted. He looked from afar and saw that his soldiers were starting to attack the city along the ladder.
For Wanyan Zongwang, this was undoubtedly good news.
"Order Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Chang to increase the strength of the siege and try to take down Dong Jing in one fell swoop!”
"Understood!"
Following Wanyan Zongwang's order, the Jin soldiers launched another onslaught. Their vanguard even climbed up the walls of Tokyo. Although they were eventually forced back by the Imperial Guards, the situation was extremely dangerous for the Great Song.
Zhao Huan did not return to the palace.
Before the Jin soldiers started to attack the Wild Jujube Sect, he had built a temporary camp in front of the Heavenly Wave Gate in the inner city as a temporary command post.
A soldier led the troops into the camp.
"Reporting, reporting to Your Majesty, our army has already repelled the Jin soldiers 'attacks three times, and the enemy's attacks have been greatly reduced. However, our side has suffered heavy losses. According to preliminary statistics, nearly five thousand soldiers guarding the city have died. The Jin soldiers have temporarily retreated, and the newly recruited volunteer camps have been sent to the city tower one after another to prepare for battle!”
After hearing the messenger's report, Zhao Huan's expression turned solemn. The atmosphere in the entire camp was extremely oppressive.
Bai Shizhong stood up and said with a serious expression,"
"Your Majesty, even though there are only fifty to sixty thousand Jin soldiers and thirty to forty thousand Imperial Army soldiers in our city, relying on the sturdiness of the city and the thunderbolt bullets and other defensive weapons, it seems that our side has a great advantage. However, we have to divide our forces to defend the main gates. The Imperial Army soldiers who can really participate in the defense of the city are only twenty thousand.”
Zhao Huan nodded." That's right. Although we can hold on for now, as time passes, our advantage will gradually decrease. Our morale will also be greatly reduced. The situation is indeed not optimistic!”
Zhao Huan sighed." But the longer we hold on, the more advantageous it will be for us. Once the loyal army reaches Tokyo, the scales of victory will tilt towards us!”
Bai Shizhong also nodded in agreement.
At this moment, a messenger ran in and reported loudly,"
"Your Majesty, the Jin soldiers have launched another attack. This time, the attack is even fiercer than the previous ones!”
" What?" Bai Shizhong was shocked." They attacked so quickly and even more fiercely than the previous few times?"”
Zhao Huan raised his eyebrows. At this moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.
Ding! The System's experience points have reached 10,000. The host's strength has been upgraded to " Second-rate Expert ".
After the system's voice ended, Zhao Huan felt an inexplicable power spread throughout his body.
He was much stronger than when he had become a third-rate expert. His entire body was filled with strength.
Zhao Huan thought carefully for a moment, then stood up and walked out of the Imperial Camp.
Bai Shizhong quickly followed and asked anxiously,""Your Majesty, where are you going? Your Majesty!"
"Go to Wild Jujube Sect. I want to climb the city gate and beat the drums to cheer for you!”
After Zhao Huan finished speaking, he brought Cao Jie, Lin Chong, and the others towards Ziziander Sect.
Bai Shizhong quickly advised," Your Majesty, it's dangerous. You can't go, Your Majesty!"”
However, Zhao Huan ignored Bai Shizhong's advice and headed towards Ziziander Sect.
At this moment, the battle cries of Wild Jujube Sect had already shook the heavens.
The sounds of weapons clashing, shouts, explosions, moans, screams, and other sounds interweaved together. It was extremely tragic.
In the air, the strong smell of gunpowder mixed with the pungent smell of blood rushed towards them, causing Cao Jie and Bai Shizhong to be unable to hold it in for a moment. They held onto the city wall and vomited loudly.
Perhaps it was because Zhao Huan's strength had increased, but when faced with this pungent smell of blood, he felt his blood boil. His entire person was in an extremely excited state.
As they climbed up the city wall, they could see broken limbs everywhere. Blood splattered all over the ground, dyeing the pitch-black city wall brown. It was obvious that the battle between the two sides was extremely fierce.
On the city tower, Zhao Huan saw Li Gang and Zhao Ding commanding the soldiers to kill the Jin soldiers who were climbing up the ladder.
"Quick, quick, don't let them climb up. Stop them!”
"Sir, it's bad. The wall that the camp is guarding has been broken through by the Jin soldiers. The Jin soldiers have already attacked the wall. More and more Jin soldiers are coming!”
When Li Gang and Zhao Ding heard this, they staggered and almost lost their balance.
Fortunately, Li Gang held on and scolded sternly,"What? Didn't the volunteer camp arrange five thousand people to defend? How did it get breached so quickly?"
"Milord, the volunteer camp is made up of slightly trained civilians. This is their first time on the battlefield, so their morale is low and they are timid. That's why they were broken through by the Jin soldiers. However, please rest assured, Milord. Wang Zonghao's military academy has already led the Imperial Army over.”
Upon hearing that Wang Zonghao had led the Imperial Army over, Li Gang heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly ordered,"Pass down my order. Tell Wang Zonghao to drive the Jin soldiers down the city wall. Otherwise, make him bring his head to see me!”
"Understood!"
Zhao Huan had also heard the messenger's report and rushed to the city tower.""Li Gang, how's the situation?"
When Li Gang and Zhao Ding saw Zhao Huan, they were also shocked. They hurriedly advised,"Your Majesty, you can't come here, here…!”
Zhao Huan quickly stopped the two of them from nagging."Li Gang, Zhao Ding, don't talk nonsense. Tell me, can you hold on?”
Although the situation was critical, Li Gang was confident. He hurriedly replied,"Don't worry, Your Majesty. We can definitely defend it, but there's no other way!”
