Chapter 50: The Eve of the Great War

Almost at the same moment, Lei Zhenyu and the others shot with all their might, but they were already a step too late!

"Yu Yan, you take strict care of those family members on the left, and those who dare to leave without permission will be killed!" Lei Zhenyu said immediately.

"Understood!" Shangguan Yuyan took the order.

"Brother Xiao Chen, how long can that eroded qi disperse last?"

"Half an hour!"

"Brother Murong, where else can warships land in Yueqiong City besides Stone Harbor?"

"Yueqiong City only faces the sea on the east side, and the only place that can make warships land is the Stone Harbor, but the harbor there is full of reefs, and idlers don't dare to drive the ship in, because there is only a dead end!" Murong Zhong analyzed.

"The navigation skills of the Oriental people cannot be underestimated, and there is a unique set of boat handling skills, I am sure that what Matsuda Yuzawa hinted at must be related to the Troubled Stone Port, and the eight-foot mirror is only a space artifact after all, and it will definitely not be able to escape far with so many people, but it is imperative that we first go to control the four city gates!" Lei Zhenyu knew that he had to settle inside first, and if his backyard was often on fire, then what was there to talk about outside!

Lei Zhenyu and others rushed to Yongchangmen under the leadership of Murong Zhong and Situ Qihao, while Situ Hongxi and Murong Xuan returned to the City Lord's Mansion to sit in the town.

For the sake of safety, Lei Zhenyu and the others did not stay and went straight to Taihemen, but the situation in Taihemen was not optimistic, the battle here was extremely fierce, the streets and alleys were full of corpses, Situ Qihao rushed to the command post with a solemn expression, and Lei Zhenyu and others followed closely and arrived at the command post, where the officers saw Situ Qihao, a veritable commander, all stood up.

"See the boss!"

"Be polite, who can tell me about the situation here?" shouted Situ Qihao.

"Returning to the commander, those troops are killed from Dingfumen, because there are traitors on our side, and when we find out, the enemy has already killed in the city, and the brothers have died a lot, and according to the spies, the troops on the Ding'anmen side are also killing this side, according to their current speed, they will be killed in less than a quarter of an hour, and our situation is not optimistic!" At this time, a staff general reported to Situ Qihao.

"What are you doing to eat! Before I left, I had already ordered you to take strict precautions and be vigilant! Do you all listen to the wind!" Situ Qihao jumped like thunder, because anyone could see that Taihe was more than lucky.

Situ Qihao habitually looked at Lei Zhenyu, because Lei Zhenyu was the absolute commander in the whole operation, and Lei Zhenyu's leadership ability was also recognized by everyone.

Lei Zhenyu couldn't help but smile bitterly, he had deeply realized that what he was most afraid of leading the troops to fight was not a matter of life and death but a matter of choice, and now what was in front of him was still a matter of choice, whether to stick to it or abandon it, if he held on, then few people in the defenders of Taihemen would almost certainly survive, but if he abandoned it, the battlefield would spread to the entire Yueqiong City, and there would be more dead people at that time!

"Immediately gather all the brothers outside the city, shrink the battle line, and move closer here, we will gather strength to fight the enemy to the death!" Lei Zhenyu announced without question.

However, the officers present fell into a deathly silence, because this announcement was tantamount to pronouncing their death sentences! In fact, this decision was not easy for Lei Zhenyu, the war was originally to use the lives of the brothers as bargaining chips in exchange for more people to live better.

"Are you all deaf! I now officially announce that Brother Zhenyu will be the supreme commander here, and you must obey his orders unconditionally, and if you violate the order, you will be killed!" Situ Qihao almost roared.

Lei Zhenyu stopped Situ Qihao from continuing, "You remember, perseverance is for the people we care about and love to live better, abandoning it will only prolong our lives for a moment, and at the same time, it will also bring disasters to the people you care about and love, I won't say much nonsense, if you want to follow me, kill me with me!" Lei Zhenyu didn't look back after speaking, and killed the enemy directly.

The officers present stood on the spot, they looked at Lei Zhenyu's back, and seemed to feel the rise of a new star and the revival of a great man in their hearts. None of them flinched, but instead summoned more courage and strength to follow and kill them.

"Have you noticed that Brother Zhenyu will definitely become a figure who looks down on the world in the future!" Murong Zhong said to Situ Qihao and the others beside him.

"I've seen this a long time ago, so I'll follow him until I die!" Nangong Xiao Chen said with a smile, then sacrificed his mending spoon and killed him.

Dugu Lonely and the others smiled relative to each other, and followed the killing general.

Lei Zhenyu continued to rush left and right, covering the retreat of the troops, it took almost a quarter of an hour to withdraw all the brothers to Taihemen, and just after withdrawing to Taihemen, the large army of Ding'anmen has been killed, each gate of Yueqiongcheng is actually like a small castle, and the fortifications are still very complete, so the troops from Ding'anmen did not dare to attack the city rashly, but met with the troops of Dingfumen outside the city, and then trapped Taihemen, looking like catching turtles in an urn.

Lei Zhenyu ordered to count the number of people, he knew that the enemy outside the city was not in a hurry to attack the city because they were waiting for their commander to appear, and after a while, Lei Zhenyu summoned Murong Zhong and Situ Qihao and others to discuss countermeasures.

"Our number of people is less than 30,000 now, and we lost nearly 10,000 in the first battle just now, including the mutiny, if it weren't for Brother Zhenyu's order to retreat in time, and wait for the troops of Ding'anmen to kill them, it is estimated that we would have been wiped out by now!" Situ Qihao said first.

"I just looked at the castle tower, the enemy is estimated to have 100,000 people, but this is not a cause for concern, the only thing to worry about is the Orientals, their troops have not moved for a long time, I suspect that there must be a problem here!" Murong Zhong looked at everyone and said with a heavy heart.

"There is no doubt about it, they must be ambushing on the way to rescue us by the Yongchang Gate garrison, if I were the other party, I would definitely try to inform the Yongchang Gate side that we are in urgent need of rescue here, and once the Yongchang Gate side is tricked, they can uproot us! The Oriental people are really ruthless!" Lei Zhenyu finally said the reality that he didn't want to accept the most.

"Ahh

"You must be calm!" Lei Zhenyu scolded, he is like this, always bring confidence and courage to everyone, even in a desperate situation, this may be a necessary quality for a leader.

As soon as Lei Zhenyu finished speaking, there was earth-shattering applause outside the city, Lei Zhenyu understood that the other party's coach had arrived, and he hurriedly led everyone to the city tower.

"Haha, Brother Zhenyu, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon!" said Ximen Yongyin laughed at the bottom of the city, while next to him stood Sato Yijian, Sato Hideyi, Matsuda Yusawa, and Matsuda Sakurayuki.

"Yes, fate is such a thing, it's really inexhaustible, it's just that I have a question that I've been very entangled, what kind of bird mirror do you rely on every time you run for your life, are you tired! And Brother Yongyin, what is your relationship with the Orientals, why are you so iron?"

"Hmph! Equipment is also part of strength, you have the ability, you threw the knife in your hand and tried to fight me! And we are married to Brother Yongyin's family forever, you say that the relationship is iron!" Matsuda Yuze said viciously as if he was targeting Lei Zhenyu everywhere.

"You guys are married, you won't do it, right!" Lei Zhenyu pretended to be surprised, and Murong Zhong and the others couldn't help laughing when they heard it.

"You damn it!" Matsuda Yuze, including Matsuda Sakuraki and Ximen Yongyin, were so angry that they almost ordered the siege of the city, but in the end they still endured it, Lei Zhenyu couldn't help but be disappointed, just now he wanted to use words to stimulate the other party, so that the other party could attack the city earlier, it seems that the enemy is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

"What we have is time, Brother Zhenyu, I hope you don't lose your money so quickly, that will be boring!" Sato Yijian said coldly, and then turned around and went back to the barracks, and the others also knew that the longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable it would be for Lei Zhenyu, so they also followed back to the barracks, and Matsuda Yuze did not forget to glare at Lei Zhenyu fiercely before leaving.

Lei Zhenyu smiled when he saw it, and then said to Murong Zhong and the others beside him: "Let's go, let's go back and have a good drink first, I have a way to turn defeat into victory!"

"Haha, Brother Zhenyu, you will always be a person who does not play cards according to common sense, but you are always decisive thousands of miles away, I know that you are comforting me, but you can rest assured, even if you die, I can have a drink with you at the end, and I will die without regrets!" Murong Zhong put his arm around Lei Zhenyu's shoulders and laughed.

"That's it, in this case, you can turn defeat into victory, then you are a god!" Nangong Xiaochen also echoed and said.

"Brother Qihao, do you believe it?" Lei Zhenyu looked at Murong Zhong and Nangong Xiaochen who didn't believe him, and turned to Situ Qihao and asked.

"It's not that I don't ......" Situ Qihao was stopped by Lei Zhenyu before he finished speaking, "Yes, you don't believe me either, now you are the only one left, Brother Lonely, you have to believe that the truth is always in the hands of a few!"

"But only what is recognized by the majority is the truth!" Dugu replied directly.

"Damn! my brothers can't be relied on these days!" Lei Zhenyu was so depressed, he obviously had a way, but he was treated as a joke by these people, and he didn't mention how sad he was, "Let's find a secret room and talk about it!" At this time, Lei Zhenyu was much more serious, and he didn't look like he was joking.

Situ Qihao also knew that Lei Zhenyu was not a person who didn't know what was important, "You send heavy soldiers to watch over here, not a single ant can climb in!" Situ Qihao instructed the doorman, and then walked to the basement with Lei Zhenyu.

After all five people sat down in the basement, Lei Zhenyu didn't sell it, and said directly: "Brother Xiao Chen, do you remember that you have a kind of pill called a driving pill?"

"Yes, ah, you mean......" Nangong Xiaochen suddenly realized, and was so excited that he almost jumped up, "Brother Zhenyu, you are so wise and powerful, I worship you too much, I must be a woman to marry you in the next life!"

"Damn! next time, I will secretly refine a forbidden pill for you to eat, so that your mouth must be unsealed before you can speak, see that you are still so open-mouthed!" Lei Zhenyu was even more depressed at this time.

"Hehe, the rats in the city are going to suffer!" Dugu Lonely also laughed.

"What drive pill and what mouse, are you three crazy!" Murong Zhong looked at Lei Zhenyu and the three of them inexplicably.

"Haha!" Lei Zhenyu and the other three laughed almost in unison, this life, this situation is really wonderful!
