"Roar!"
"Charge!"
Under the command of Tashi Badulu, countless Yuan Dynasty soldiers screamed and quickly approached Nanyang City.
"Release the arrows!"
"Fire!"
Zhu Rong's expression was calm and collected as he waited for the right moment to order a counterattack.
The archers under his command had already nocked their arrows and were ready for battle. Upon hearing Zhu Xiong's order, they immediately released their arrows.
"Whoosh!"
The sky full of arrows rained down like a heavy summer rain. Countless Yuan soldiers who were charging towards Nanyang City fell like wheat blown by a strong wind.
Immediately after.
"Boom!"
Deafening cannon fire rang out as the pitch-black shells landed in the middle of the Yuan Army formation and exploded. A huge crater was instantly created in the ground, and the soil was sent flying high into the air. The surrounding Yuan Army soldiers were blasted into the sky, their bodies mangled!
War was never a game, it was a deadly machine!
The moment the battle began, people were injured and losing their lives every minute and second!
After a few rounds of rain of arrows and artillery fire, the Yuan soldiers rushed to the front of the city gate tower. They lifted the high ladder and put it on the city gate tower, and began to climb up with all their might.
Below.
Next to the ladder, the musketeers and archers of the Yuan Dynasty soldiers aimed at the soldiers on the Nanyang city tower to cover the attacking soldiers.
"Thunder stone!"
"Rolling wood!"
"Release!"
Seeing that the Yuan soldiers had climbed to the top, Zhu Rong gave another order.
The thunder stones and rolling logs piled up on the city wall were lifted up by the soldiers and thrown at the Yuan army on the scaling ladder.
"Bang!"
The Yuan soldiers at the front of the ladder were hit by a huge thunderstone, and their heads were instantly flattened. Blood spurted out, mixed with white brain matter. It looked unusually cruel!
His body immediately fell off the ladder, along with a few Yuan soldiers who were climbing behind him.
This kind of situation also happened from time to time on other ladders!
When the predecessors fell, the descendants continued!
Gradually…
A layer of corpses began to be laid under Nanyang City, and blood dyed the ground red!
As time passed, more and more corpses appeared. The soil on the ground could no longer absorb the blood brought about by the war. The puddles of water in Convergence City flowed into the moat, dyeing the river blood red!
The war lasted from day to night.
However!
Even at night, Dashi Badulu did not give the order to retreat. Instead, he ordered his men to light torches and burn the midnight oil to fight!
"This is crazy!"
"It seems that losing his son has made him completely disregard everything!”
Zhu Xiong sighed as he looked at the Yuan army that was still attacking madly in the dark.
This attitude clearly showed that he would not stop until Nanyang was broken. He did not treat the lives of the soldiers as his life at all. He was just a tool to avenge his son!
"Minmin, when will father-in-law send Yuan Jun over?”
"Dashi Badulu has already lost his mind in anger. Attacking the city in such a frenzied manner will not only cause heavy losses to his soldiers, but it will also gradually make him lose his morale.”
"As long as we seize this opportunity, we can destroy them in one fell swoop.”
Zhu Rong deliberately asked Min Min Timur beside him, innocently analyzing the situation for her.
"Soon, soon!"
"When father received the news, he was already gathering troops. He will arrive soon.”
Min Min Timur gave Zhu Rong a complicated look.
She knew that her father not only wanted to destroy Dashi Badulu, but also wanted to destroy Zhu Xiong!
When the snipe and clam fought, the fisherman would benefit. His father had long planned this out.
However…
What Minmin Timur didn't know was that she was also being used as a sacrificial tool by her father!
"Alright, then I'll wait for father-in-law's good news!”
Zhu Xiong smiled reassuringly and continued to supervise the battle. When he turned around, a look of disdain and mockery appeared on his face.
Want to be a fisherman?
Ha!
Let's see if you have the ability!
Days passed.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Dashi Badulu had led his army to attack Nanyang City day and night for an entire month. The corpses under the city walls had piled up like a small mountain!
However, Nanyang City was still unbreakable under Zhu Xiong's protection.
In this one month, Tashi Badulu had lost a hundred thousand soldiers, and they were exhausted. Their offensive power was getting weaker.
On the other hand, Zhu He's army had relied on Nanyang City's tall and broad walls, advanced firearms, and elite soldiers. The losses weren't too great, with about 5,000 casualties, a ratio of nearly 20 to 1.
Moreover, the city had sufficient food and fodder, and Zhu Xiong was never stingy with his soldiers. He let them eat as much as they wanted with every meal.
The soldiers could eat and drink to their hearts 'content every day, and with Zhu Xiong, the pillar of stability, their morale was still high!
"Dang dang dang-"
The sound of the gong rang out in Tashbadulu's army. The Yuan soldiers who were attacking the city immediately retreated like a tide.
These days, they were really too tired!
Dashi Badulu also saw this. Although he wanted to take revenge for his son, it was impossible for such a tired army to take down the city.
He planned to call off the troops first and let the soldiers rest well to conserve their strength and fight another day.
"Damn it! He finally retreated!"
"I thought that this Old Yuan Dog would be able to continue fighting with us!”
"What a f * cking trash! I've just warmed up! Bah!"
Lan Yu spat out a mouthful of blood as she looked at Yuan Jun retreating. Her voice was filled with contempt and disdain.
"Haha!"
"Dashi Badulu is the Prime Minister of the Yuan Court after all.”
"With the current state of his army, he might not be able to break through Nanyang City even if he uses all his remaining troops.”
"The retreat this time is only for the sake of being even crazier the next time!”
Zhu Rong said to Blue Jade with a light laugh. He could naturally see through Dashi Badulu's intentions.
"Min Min, when will father-in-law's reinforcements arrive?”Zhu Rong asked Minmin Timur, who was wearing a fiery red armor and looked valiant. However, his voice was full of ridicule, playfulness, and undisguised mockery.
"Hurry up…Soon, soon…Soon!"
Min Min Timur turned her head away, not daring to meet Zhu Rong's eyes.
"Haha, that's what you told me a month ago.”
"If it weren't for the fact that I, Zhu Rong, had some ability and the elite soldiers under me, Nanyang City would have been trampled by now, wouldn't it?”
"Then, your father can use the name of suppressing the rebellion to destroy Dashi Badulu. Not only can he destroy me, the Third Prince of Great Ming, but he can also destroy his greatest opponent, Dashi Badulu. It can be said to be killing two birds with one stone, killing two birds with one stone!”
"It seems that your daughter is just an abandoned child on his path to hegemony!”
Things had come to this.
There was no need to hide anymore. Zhu Xiong was already tired enough of wearing those fake things and putting on a fake mask!
Abandoned!
These two words exploded in Min Min Timur's mind like a thunderbolt, like a sharp knife stabbing into her heart, instantly causing her face to turn pale.
"No, it won't!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
"Father can't be so heartless and ruthless!”
Min Min Timur shook her head and bit her lips. She had used too much force and her lips were bitten. She could not accept this fact.
"Hehe, since ancient times, the most ruthless imperial family!”
"For the sake of the highest position, there are many fathers and sons who kill each other and brothers who fight against each other. What does a mere daughter of yours count for?？”
Zhu Rong sneered, piercing through the last bit of hope and fantasy in her heart without hesitation.
Plop!
Min Min Timur fell to the ground weakly and kept shaking his head." Impossible…" It was impossible…Impossible…"
"You'll know soon enough whether it's possible or not.”
"I will send a message to my good father-in-law in your name. Tell him that Nanyang City is on the verge of collapse and that Dashi Badulu has suffered heavy losses.”
"Let's see if your good father will lead his troops here.”
Zhu Rong glanced at Min Min Timur, who was in a daze and had a mental breakdown, and turned to leave.
"Wait, in my name?"
"What right do you have to use my name? The communication between me and my father is done by professionals. How could you send the letter to my father?”
"You must be trying to drive a wedge between us father and daughter!”
Min Min Timur suddenly shouted angrily at Zhu Rong's back.
"Haha!"
"Do you really think that I can't find the members of the Horse Hunting Army?”
"Who do you think has been sending messages to your father these days?”
After saying that, Zhu Rong left quickly without looking back. This silly woman had been sold by her father and was still counting money for him. What a sad woman!
Suddenly!
Min Min Timur's eyes suddenly widened, and his pupils constricted. He looked at Zhu Rong's back in horror and disbelief!
A chill rose from the bottom of her heart, making her feel cold all over!
So…
He knew everything!
Scheming?
Who was scheming against whom?
