Chapter 774: Admiration
Seeing that Old Marshal Huang seemed to be a little reluctant, Ling Xiao glanced at the four princes, and the four princes immediately opened their mouths to persuade:
"Old Marshal Huang, I know what you're worried about, but I can tell you! This time, the invasion of the barbarian army is an extremely dangerous disaster for our Great Zhou, and if it is handled well, your reputation in the future will be even more prosperous! But if you just want to keep your previous reputation, then now, you can return to the imperial capital and let me take over the border defense of the Great Zhou! I will say to the outside world that you have been framed by the barbarian spies and poisoned! In this way, your reputation will not be damaged!"
Old Marshal Huang's face was a little red, not only because his thoughts were seen by Ling Xiao and them, but also because Ling Xiao and the Four Princes were thinking about how to solve this barbarian attack, but he was still thinking about his reputation, compared with the two, he, the old marshal, was simply embarrassed and thrown home!
"I'm sorry, the fourth prince, the king of Zhenjiang, just now, I was confused for a while! When the national crisis is at hand, when the safety of the Great Zhou is the main thing, how can I still think about my personal reputation? I will go and inform the army to retreat! However, from here, to the canyon, there is only a distance of more than 1,000 miles, and the barbarian army may not give us the time to be arranged! I have already predicted that they will attack soon!"
Ling Xiao and the Four Princes looked at each other and smiled, and said:
"I'm sorry, we've already hidden from you and set up a formation on the city wall, and in addition, on the way from here to the canyon, the formation is gradually being arranged!"
Old Marshal Huang couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"King Zhenjiang, the fourth prince, you two, this is a way back that has been prepared in advance, right? Just put me aside and let me be in a hurry!
The fourth prince shrugged his shoulders, smiled indifferently, and said:
"Actually, we can't be blamed for this, because we have already thought about this matter, and I'm afraid that you won't agree! As early as the first time he came back from the Northern Wilderness Forest, the King of Zhenjiang had already made a prediction, the Northern Wilderness Barbarians, relying on this toxin, and that kind of bow and crossbow in the ancient period, were enough to easily break through our city wall! And our city wall, once breached, whether it was facing the opponent's bow and crossbow head-on, or meeting the opponent's sword soldiers, we would not have an advantage!"
Old Marshal Huang sighed deeply, looked at Ling Xiao, and said meaningfully:
"The king of Zhenjiang is young, he has such a great talent, and in the future, he will definitely have a great achievement!!"
Ling Xiao could understand the meaning of his words from his tone! However, he didn't say much.
Because, in his world, the big things he will do in the future are not known how many times bigger than Marshal Huang's prediction!
A small Great Zhou Empire, or even a small Upper Realm Plane, is not enough for him to see!
Therefore, he didn't care at all!
Even if it is, Marshal Huang, if he goes to join him now, he is still not afraid!
It's a big deal, overthrowing the Great Zhou is!
With Ling Xiao's memory and Ling Xiao's strength, it is completely easy to create a stronger empire!
After all, the upper realm has enough aura, as long as there is this fundamental place, he Lingxiao, there is no need to worry at all!
"Okay, we don't have much time, the Northern Barbarians, I'm afraid it won't be long before the siege will begin, Marshal Huang, let's go and inform now!"
"Good!"
Old Marshal Huang nodded, stomped on his feet, and his body had disappeared in place in an instant!
Time is pressing, and he can't pay attention to so much etiquette!
After coming to the city wall, Marshal Huang immediately ordered his generals to issue the order, and he glanced at the city.
Just one glance made his scalp tingle!
Under the city wall, the barbarians in the northern wilderness, there are countless of them, spreading for thousands of miles, at a glance, all of them are barbarian monks, and even, in the dense forest, the wind and grass are blowing, and it seems that there are a large number of barbarians hidden!
Marshal Huang made a preliminary estimate that there are at least tens of millions of barbarians here!
In comparison, the Great Zhou City Defense Army is really not enough!
Actually, he is not to blame!
There is no way, who let the eldest prince be reckless and destroy the original advantages of Da Zhou?
But Marshal Huang has also carefully observed, there are so many armies of the Northern Barbarian Clan, in fact, it is very easy to capture the city wall, three million more elites, three million less elites, it seems that the problem is not big!
When his eyes saw the huge pitch-black cannon barrels standing in front of the Northern Barbarian Clan's formation, he couldn't help but feel a tingling in his scalp!
The formations carved on those things are several times more powerful than those bows and crossbows! With the mind of Old Marshal Huang, he could not have imagined what that cannon barrel meant!
The power of the bow and crossbow is already so powerful that people can't avoid it, let alone such a huge cannon barrel!
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and told the soldiers on the city wall to speed up!
Fortunately, he promised Ling Xiao and the four princes to prepare to retreat, otherwise, if they really confronted this giant cannon, I am afraid that they would not be able to bear even a stick of incense!
Thinking of this, he admired Ling Xiao even more!
It is conceivable that if it weren't for Ling Xiao's prediction in advance, this battle, the perimeter defense, would have completely collapsed, and there would be no way to resist at all!
"Hurry! We must retreat immediately!"
"Yes!"
Because they were all martial cultivators, everyone retreated very quickly! In the blink of an eye, they were evacuated from the city wall.
The army retreated, and in less than half a minute, the sound of artillery fire sounded on the city wall behind them!
The attack of the barbarian army has finally begun!
"Boom, boom.... ”
A series of cannon explosions were so powerful that even the earth trembled!
Old Marshal Huang just glanced back, and he was so frightened that he couldn't help but shudder.
The barbarian cannon is too strong, so powerful that it is almost unacceptable!
With that cannon, half of the city wall collapsed, a row of huge cannons, and the formation of the large perimeter defense completely burst open, and it couldn't bear it at all!
It's horrible!
But Marshal Huang didn't dare to stop for half a minute, just let the army continue to speed up!
This battle has just begun.
Now, he must rush to the canyon as quickly as possible, and then re-establish a new defensive formation and new fortifications, only in this way can he have a chance to win in the next battle!
"Barbarian, you wait for the old man! This revenge will not be avenged, and the old man will not be a man!"
