Chapter 2098: Chapter 201: Brothers Like Dragon and Tiger
“Your white clothes surpass the snow, your deanor is unparalleled, truly a person I have never encountered in my life. You must be the number one genius of our Great Qi Empire, the one who eclipses all peers, Zhongxuan Zun, General Zhongxuan!”
The defender of Ximing City, Liu Yitao, in charge of five thousand soldiers and guarding thirty thousand prisoners, looked at Zhongxuan Zun with emotion.
Heaven knows how sincerely grateful he is to the one who has co to save his life.
That General Zhongxuan Sheng truly trusts people, and Jiang Wang’s reputation for trustworthiness is indeed reliable, reinforcents have truly arrived! And they’ve co through the Outer Building, it is indeed the God Arrives!
Our Great Qi Empire has not abandoned , Liu Yitao!
Zhongxuan Zun restrained Liu Yitao from attempting to hug his leg with a playful expression: “The number one genius of Great Qi? Was that said by a person nad Jiang?”
“Your brother personally told so!” Liu Yitao decided to play the family card: “He admires you greatly, saying you are a once-in-a-millennium genius of the Human Race, the greatest God Arrives of all ti…”
“Alright, alright.” Zhongxuan Zun turned his head, looked into the distant sky, and spoke with an inexplicable lancholy: “Are you saying you’ve already submitted to Qi?”
“Yes, yes!” Liu Yitao replied joyfully.
“The whole city has surrendered?”
“Yes, yes!”
“And there are still tens of thousands of prisoners?”
“Yes, yes!”
Zhongxuan Zun slightly gritted his teeth, speaking sowhat dangerously: “These may not be easy to prove.”
Liu Yitao didn’t catch the danger, enthusiastically saying: “I have a military record written in person by your brother! It’s all recorded here, there’s no mistake!”
He took out a paper from Zhongxuan Sheng from his chest and handed it to Zhongxuan Zun, pointing out: “Look here, it records, ‘Hereby, Liu Yitao submits to Great Qi, aids the heavenly army to guard Ximing City, repeatedly intercepts local reinforcents, and makes an indelible contribution to the grand strategy of Linwu Mansion…’ Look for yourself!”
Zhongxuan Zun pinched the paper with his thumb and index finger, holding it up disdainfully before his eyes.
The few words that stood out conspicuously in his pitch-black eyes were—
“Victory Camp, first credit for Linwu Mansion!”
He set his hand down.
Long-winded, all praising military achievents, truly nothing worth reading.
That fellow nad Liu Yitao was still eagerly watching him, full of enthusiasm: “The two of you are truly extraordinary brothers, really exceptional! General Zhongxuan Sheng always ntions you to ! His feelings for you are truly deep, knowing you will certainly co to support him, saying with you here, he has no worries!”
“Heh.” Zhongxuan Zun laughed dryly: “Is he so sure I would co?”
“Hahaha.” Liu Yitao laughed heartily: “Isn’t it so! Brothers fight tigers together, father and sons go to war. The two of you, heart to heart!”
Looking at this guy who seed either genuinely dumb or pretending, Zhongxuan Zun now very much doubted what standards that fat guy used to choose the defender of Ximing City!
Who can disgust people more?
Casually slapping the paper back onto Liu Yitao’s chest armor, Zhongxuan Zun strode outside: “Assemble!”
He couldn’t believe it!
One Jiang Wang without a currently arriving God Arrives, one Zhongxuan Sheng whose combat strength is negligible, could actually be quicker than him personally leading troops forward?
Even if Linwu Mansion’s outco is decided, there are still more confrontations to co, including with Feng Li, Shaokang, and Jin’an!
The war is far from over!
“Hey, General, where are you going?” Liu Yitao hurriedly followed behind: “What will you arrange for , the humble one?”
Zhongxuan Zun couldn’t be bothered to respond.
The grand banner unfurled, the vanguard camp controlling the city gates quickly assembled.
Zhongxuan Zun, ntally marking the map of the Sumr Country, silently confird the next target, ready to lead troops onward.
Suddenly—
Wuu! Wuu! Wuu!
Distantly, the sound of a horn echoed out!
Liu Yitao’s face changed dramatically!
Zhongxuan Zun flew high into the sky to look into the distance and saw clouds of dust rolling on the far horizon.
A mighty army was advancing majestically.
A prominent flag fluttered in the wind in the lead.
The banner read—”An Country”.
The Marquis of An Country of Da Xia, Jin Ling!
If it were one-on-one, Zhongxuan Zun, who has achieved God Without Regret, would not fear Jin Ling.
But his vanguard camp had only three thousand elite soldiers, while Jin Ling commanded at least thirty thousand troops as far as the eye could see!
With the intention to leave, at the marching speed of the vanguard camp, escaping is completely feasible. Having reached the heart of Sumr Country, they could roam freely; where wouldn’t they be able to go with soldiers and swords?
Yet he inevitably had to consider the strategic importance of holding Ximing City for the overall battle in Linwu Mansion!
This place commands the north and south, strangles communication, intercepts aid, and truly is a strategic danger point.
Occupying Ximing City for one more day ans Linwu Mansion would likely change flags in three days at most!
“Open…”
He opened his mouth to order Liu Yitao to activate the city guarding formation.
Only to rember that the city guarding formation had already been destroyed by Zhongxuan Sheng.
He couldn’t help but feel this was also part of Zhongxuan Sheng’s sche, a trap set for him!
But thinking slightly further, he knew that given Zhongxuan Sheng’s forces at the ti, destroying the city guarding formation was indeed the best choice. If he were in the sa situation, unable to ensure occupying the city, he’d likely do the sa.
But without the city guarding formation, what could they rely on to resist the opposing army?
On those prisoners who could turn on them at any mont?
“General, General, what should we do? The Marquis of An Country is cunning with his troops.” Liu Yitao followed Zhongxuan Zun closely, anxious and fearful, chattering incessantly: “Shouldn’t we retreat?”
Retreating is certainly the most sensible choice, and the safest one for oneself.
If he insists on holding here and wins, it’s a huge achievent for Zhongxuan Sheng, but if he loses, it seems like he’s ruined a great situation!
Truly dirty.
That fat bastard is truly dirty!
