Chapter 96.2 Battle Without Suspense

The elite troops of the Yun state are still in the east right now, suppressing the underworld demons in the southern border of the Great Wall, and it’s already too late to go back to Yun state for rescue.

“When will the reinforcements arrive?” Sang Yuanyuan asked.

Yun Xuzhou said: “Seventy thousand troops have been transferred from both the north and south wall. They are rushing here right now and it will take three shichen for them to arrive. Thirty thousand people from the east wall will arrive here within half a shichen.”

She narrowed her eyes: “But these are not the elite troops of my Yun state. It’s just me using their heads to delay the time. It will take at least two days for Yun state’s royal army to return. Mulberry, you don’t have to accompany me here. Go to the bottom of the ancestral temple quickly, take the secret that they are so afraid of, and leave from the East Gate with You Wuming——I will do my best to protect you two out of the city.”

There are soldiers falling down all the time on the side.

“Abandon the wall and prepare for ground battle!” Yun Xuzhou ordered coldly.

The gap between the crossbows and arrows on both sides is too large. The archers suffered heavy casualties, and the death rate of both sides is close to 20:1. It will consume too much if they keep defending here. If they turn to ground battle, it shouldn’t be that difficult to exchange four or five lives for one life of the other side.

“Go, Sang Yuanyuan.”

Sang Yuanyuan nodded: “Regent Ruler, take care!”

It doesn’t help even if she keeps staying here.

Under the gate, the heavy cavalry constantly launched their attack. People stepped on people and beasts stepped on beasts. Since the first person broke through the line of defense and rushed into the Capital of Yun state, riders broke into the city one after another. Although they were quickly cut to death by frenzied attacks, the line in the heart of Yun state’s army has already been broken.

Soon, the shield array under the gate completely collapsed, and the cavalry rushed into the city one by one, chopping and killing wantonly.

Sang Yuanyuan, who had just walked down the wall, quickly turned her head and turned back.

“… it’s a bit difficult to go down now.”

A team of North Battalion Guards chased her and climbed up the wall.

“The traitorous Regent Yun Xuzhou is here!” A soldier shouted excitedly.

Sang Yuanyuan summoned a flower and smashed him down the wall.

She is a little worried.

‘Lacking a normal attack skill…’

She has always been lacking this one and there’s no sign of epiphany at all either.

This really worries her so much.

She threw out flowers to block the entrance, turned her head to Yun Xuzhou and said: “Let’s get down the wall from somewhere else!”

Under the protection of the Yun state’s guards, the two hurriedly withdrew to the south.

The blood-red North Battalion Guards have poured into the city like a tide, killing the Yun state’s army so much that they have no power to fight back anymore.

Yun Xuzhou felt endlessly frustrated: “Dare they fight with my Yun state’s elite troops in the ice field?!”

Regrettably, the enemy had no intention of treating her with any fairness.

In an instant, blood stained the frosty snow.

The civilians had already been evacuated. The North Battalion Guards’ iron cavalry did not intend to fight in Yun state’s alley. Wherever they passed, the ice houses were simply flattened to the ground by them with their shield array. One only sees that after the red tide surged over, the red colored frosty snow spread out densely, and the ice mist rose several zhang high.

Yun Xuzhou’s fingernails were pinched deeply into the palm of her hand.

At this moment, there is no fear in her heart. Only anger.

Seeing this iron wave swiftly approaching the palace, Yun Xuzhou could only watch it helplessly. Her eyes flushed red with anger and gritted her teeth when she said: “My army is wiping out the Underworld Demons, my army is wiping out the Underworld Demons…”

Sang Yuanyuan’s heart is also filled with endless sadness: “Regent Ruler, do you hate me?”

“Why hate you?”

“If You Wuming and I hadn’t cheated you into the ancestral temple and discovered those secrets, today, you wouldn’t…”

Yun Xuzhou raised her palm and interrupted her.

“The people who make the mistakes are them. Why should we look for the cause in ourselves instead? If I lose today, I only sigh that heaven is unfair! How can I have a reason to blame you?”

If heaven is unfair.

Then it’s up to people to put things right.

But today, who else can solve the danger in this Capital of Yun state?

You Wuming?
