C1015 Two Armies Against One Another
"Your ninth prince Luo Tianhua has been detained by us." The emperor said coldly to the two attendants: "Go back and tell your hall. We welcome him, the Great Shun Nation, and the Cloud Heaven Sect to go against us. If you want to save Luo Tianhua, come and defeat me. "
From beginning to end, the Emperor also did not make any requests to the Divine Clan.
Just like that, the two followers were chased away, and Luo Tianhua was imprisoned by the Emperor in the Hall of Punishment.
Immediately afterwards, the Emperor issued a series of orders.
In the Imperial City, Marquis and Wen Hou were overseeing the country.
The emperor, on the other hand, took Lan Tingyu, Chen Qingyang, Qiao Ning, and Wei Wuji to Tianyun City.
On their way to the Heavenly Cloud City, these experts would ride on the emperor's violet-gold dragon carriage! This violet-gold dragon carriage was an ancient Divine Artifact that could travel ten thousand miles in a single day. Moreover, it also contained a powerful true dragon qi. If the Son of Heaven were to use this chariot, its destructive power would be shocking.
That night, the emperor and his men arrived at the city.
The Sky Cloud City and the 13 cities of Iron Cloud City were at the same watershed. After the Dashun army attacked the 13 cities of Iron Cloud City, they would have to pass through a canyon. The gorge had a huge impact on the way forward, which was why the Dashun army had stopped to rest.
And within the Heavenly Cloud City, the city guard general was called Tang Zhennan. Skycloud City was an extremely important place for a good family, and could be said to be one of the most important places for a good family. Therefore, Tang Zhennan was also chosen by the Emperor. Tang Zhennan was an expert with cultivation level, and he had eighteen King Kong s under him.
In addition to the fifty thousand elite troops stationed in the city, it was an incredibly powerful defensive force.
At the city gate, there was a grand formation protecting it. Even if a supreme expert were to come, it would still be extremely difficult for them to destroy a city.
This was where the Celestial Realm resided. Guarding cities and attacking cities could not even be compared with the ancient times of Great Thousand World.
In Tianyun City, Tang Zhennan was only in charge of the army. On the other hand, the management of the Heavenly Cloud City was directly under the control of the Governor, and Fan Xian had succeeded.
Together, the two of them managed the entire Heavenly Cloud City in a neat and orderly manner.
At this moment, the grand formation had been activated at the city gates of the Heavenly Cloud City. Tang Zhennan and his eighteen King Kong soldiers, as well as the remaining experts from the army, took turns to guard the city.
The Emperor and his men descended upon the city gates.
When Tang Zhennan and Fan learned of the Emperor's personal visit, they immediately led the crowd to come.
Inside the city gates, all the citizens who had heard the news had also come.
Tang Zhennan and the other officials, as well as the commoners, all knelt before the Emperor.
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!" The voices were uniform and passionate.
The fact that His Majesty was present in person in the face of such a crisis greatly boosted morale.
Chen Qingyang, Lan Tingyu, and Lili, Wei Wuji were all behind the Emperor, and they too fell to their knees. This honor belongs to the Emperor.
Yuwen Zheng also knelt down.
The Emperor wore a bright yellow robe. Before he had even spoken, he had already displayed his authority in all directions.
"Zhen is here." The emperor slowly spoke, and continued, "Since I have come, everyone who invades my Great Kang Country must pay the price. As long as I am here, Tianyun City will not break through! "
"Long live our Emperor!" The voices from below sounded once again.
Following which, the Emperor, Tang Zhennan and Fan successfully ascended the city walls.
Chen Qingyang and the rest naturally followed beside them.
In the darkness of the night, the sky was full of stars.
Outside the city walls was an endless wilderness. In front of them were countless tents that were densely packed with one hundred thousand soldiers.
"Your majesty, before us lies the huge army of one hundred thousand from the Darchun Kingdom." Tang Zhennan said, "Among them are 30,000 Steel Cavalry soldiers, 50,000 Infantry soldiers and 20,000 archers. Every time they charged, they would use archers, cavalry, and infantry to attack the city. Their cooperation and coordination was very well coordinated. Along the way, our citizens of the Great Kang were massacred a million times, and all the soldiers who surrendered, and those who didn't surrender, were all killed. Through the statistics, two hundred thousand soldiers died. The thirteen city of Iron Cloud City was now in ruins. The enemy had not come to conquer the great prosperity, but to destroy it! It seems that they do not plan to bring the thirteen Iron Cloud Cities into the national territory. "
Tang Zhennan's eyes flashed with anger as he said this.
Not only Tang Zhennan, but even Fan Sheng was also furious.
When Chen Qingyang and the others heard this, their blood started to flow backwards and their hair started to stand on end.
Chen Qingyang knew in his heart that the attack of Da Shun Kingdom was fuelled by the Cloud Heaven Sect behind their backs. But wasn't Cloud Heaven Sect the Celestial Sect? Why did the Celestial Sect allow Da Shun Kingdom to do such a cruel thing?
Weren't the millions of citizens and soldiers made of flesh and blood?
Why did he have to kill them after conquering them?
For the sake of the tiny bit of benefits that came with Cloud Heaven Sect, were they really willing to let so many innocent lives be lost?
Chen Qingyang and Qiao Ning remained silent. Lan Tingyu, Wei Wuji, and the others all remained silent.
The emperor's gaze looked into the distance, but he didn't say anything.
At this moment, no one dared to say anything more.
After a long while, the emperor said, "Tang Zhennan!"
"This lowly general is here!" Tang Zhennan immediately said.
"Battle drum, open the gates, meet the enemy!" The Emperor said slowly.
Everyone was shocked. Tang Zhennan was slightly surprised, but he didn't say much. He only said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
In the darkness of the night, the city gates of the Heavenly Cloud City suddenly opened, and all the torches lit up.
The war drums began to rumble.
It was clear that the Emperor did not plan to carry out a surprise attack. He was plotting something. There were no tricks involved in such a war. Only an ambush, or an ambush in a city, would be of any use. A flat road like this emphasized the art of using troops.
But there was a difference within the Tianzhou.
The decisive battles between those with high magic power would determine the outcome of the battle.
Afterwards, the emperor rode on a violet-gold dragon chariot and led his great army towards Dashun's army.
Chen Qingyang and his men rode alongside the Emperor.
On the other side, the Dashun army quickly reacted as well. The densely packed troops suddenly started to move in unison.
In the light of the fire, the marshal took the lead and led the troops to welcome them.
At Wen Dao's side, there were also many mysterious experts.
It was impossible for the Great Shun Nation to dare invade the Great Kang Country without any experts. The Cloud Heaven Sect had been sent out quite a bit.
The armies on both sides were like a torrent as they slowly approached.
The iron hooves rumbled and the ground shook.
"Stand up!" On Tang Zhennan's side, a messenger shouted. Therefore, all the Steel Cavalry immediately reined themselves in. This grandeur and uniformity could be seen from this point. It could be seen how well-trained the military was.
The forces of Dashun also stood on the same side.1
Both sides were separated by a hundred meters.
Soon after, Wen Dao rode up on his horse.
Only one person from the Emperor's side waved a violet-gold dragon carriage to welcome the battle.
Thirty meters away, the two of them stopped.
That Wen Dao looked to be in his fifties. He was dressed in a purplish-gold armor, and he had an imposing manner even though he was not angry. As soon as Wen Dao saw the emperor's servants and dragon chariot, he immediately knew that the person who came was Great Kang Empire's His Majesty.
Even though Wen Dao knew the answer, he still waved his whip and pointed it at the emperor, shouting, "Who are you, state your name!"
The Emperor looked at Wen Dao, smiled lightly, and said, "Child Wen Dao, in front of me, you don't need to play these little tricks. You know what kind of person I am. Don't you think that I have come here today because I thought that this was just a foolish nonsense and did not know the seriousness of the situation? "
Wen Dao's heart sank. He was naturally aware of the person before him. Emperor Dakang's current momentum was comparable to the Cloud Heaven Sect's Sect Leader and Yun Huaying. This person was too powerful.
Although Wen Dao was fearful, he didn't show any signs of yielding. He laughed and said, "Child of Heaven, even if you aren't unconscious, you are still alive. But all these years you have been too smooth, too arrogant and ignorant. Today, you will be the biggest joke. "
"How preposterous!" Tang Zhennan flew into a rage. "That Old Man Wen Dao actually dares to insult His Majesty!"
Wei Wuji dissuaded Tang Zhennan and said, "General Tang, the emperor is in control of the situation, don't be agitated!"
"Let's go down the path." The emperor wasn't angry. He said, "Wen Dao, do you want to compete with me here, or do you want to start a war with me?"
A great battle of Tianzhou would usually first draw a path forward, and then begin.
This was somewhat similar to the Divine Seal Decree. Every time, a great general would have to decide the victor before the battle. Even in the Three Kingdoms' romance, this was often said. However, in the Three Kingdoms' story, these kind of battles between the elite soldiers before the battle were somewhat unnecessary.
And within the Tianzhou, if he didn't kill the enemy general first. If they were to engage in a chaotic battle and were able to injure each other with their mana, who knew how many of them would be killed. So it was very necessary to write down a line in advance within the Tianzhou.
Wen Dao looked towards the emperor, who seemed to be in a leisurely mood.
Wen Dao was also a very proud and arrogant person. He had roamed the world for many years and had never lost once. At this time, Wen Dao's blood was boiling.
However, Wen Dao quickly calmed down. He said, "It is already late today. If His Majesty has the guts, I will set a trap for him tomorrow and invite him to come and fight. If His Majesty is able to break through my formation, then I, Wen Dao, will sincerely submit to His Majesty and bring my troops back immediately. "
The emperor looked at Wen Dao and sneered. "From the moment you entered and attacked the thirteen cities of Iron Cloud City, you and your troops should stop thinking about returning. You set up the formation tomorrow, I'll set up the formation. When the formation is broken, it will be time for us to take your dog life! "
"Alright!" Hearing that, Wen Dao said, "Then I ask that Your Majesty return first."
The Emperor immediately retreated back into the army. Soon after, the two armies slowly retreated.
After a safe distance was reached, the rear guard turned into the front and slowly retreated into the city.
Wen Dao and the group of experts returned to the main account.
Although there were experts on the side of the Da Shun Kingdom, there were only a handful who were above the ninth level of cultivation. Furthermore, they were all guarding the imperial city of Da Shun Country.
The experts who came were all sent by Cloud Heaven Sect.
There were a total of four experts, the first of which was Xing Dongfang. Xing Dongfang did not reveal himself within the Cloud Heaven Sect, so much so that many people within the Cloud Heaven Sect did not recognize Xing Dongfang.
Cloud Heaven Sect sending experts had already taken note of the influence, so they could not send those ancestor masters. Otherwise, the Cloud Heaven Sect would actually help the Great Shun Subordinate Country invade the Great Karma Subordinate Country. The key point was that every year, his Cloud Heaven Sect would receive a tribute from Big Kang.
