Chapter 556: War Begins Before I Come

"The fallen Hou Ye is not as good as a chicken, and Tianhong City is where it belongs. Just that point of personal guards to Tianhong City is not enough for the masters of the Sun Country to grind their teeth. The prince doesn't have to be angry, what is there to do with a dead man. Huang Liang, the chief manager, comforted.

"Hahaha, well said. Huang Wenxue was refreshed again.

"Lord Wang, Wangxiang Hou belongs to Qingzhou. According to the usual practice, going out to conquer Qingzhou Mansion is to pull down a large number of crystal coins as war funds. What are the instructions of the prince on this matter?" asked Huang Liang.

"Qingzhou has been in turmoil so far, how can there be money to support him. This routine doesn't have to be taken seriously. Huang Wenxue sneered.

"Master Hou, Qingzhou Mansion said that there is no money. So, the old practice was canceled. The next morning, Wen Junshan hurriedly returned from Qingzhou Mansion with Yokomoto Chang, both of them with angry faces.

"Hehe, Huang Wenxue doesn't give it. The two of you go and ask Cui Guangren what you want. Ye Juntian smiled.

"This subordinate forgot, and the subordinate went to do it immediately. Wen Junshan was stunned for a moment, and then stretched his eyebrows. Hurried straight to the Wangxiang Mountain Range.

"Well, Lord Hou is here to guard the border city for the country. Moreover, Hou Ye also represents the yellow-clothed guard.

Lord Ben can't be too picky, so he immediately ordered the yellow-clothed Wei Nandu to command the yamen to pull out 100 million blood crystal coins as war funds, and they will arrive in a few days.

Also, you take this letter to Qingzhou Mansion. The prince is strapped for money, but he also has to be interesting.

After all, Wangxianghou is the Wangxianghou of Qingzhou. It is to win glory for Qingzhou, and it is everyone's responsibility to protect the family and defend the country......" Wen Junshan hurriedly arrived at Qingzhou Mansion with Cui Guangren's letter.

"Lord Wang, Cui Guangke is reminding Lord Wang. If you don't contribute, you don't support the country. Huang Liang frowned and handed over the letter.

"This Cui Datou is really like a stinky stone in a pit, hard and smelly. Huang Wenxue smashed the teacup on the table with a slap and said, "Okay." Give 100 million. ”

"It's so-so to have 200 million at the bottom. Ye Juntian smiled faintly after listening to the report.

"Wen Jun, this is the way the Badu Tianmen Array is arranged. I've marked it out in detail with icons. From today onwards, your seventy-two will be lined up with the little black man in a group of nine people. Ye Juntian pointed to the little black man in a black robe, and said, "Also, if there is a chance to break through, try to provide pills for them to break through as soon as possible." What I need is a strong man. The third or fourth grade of the ground martial arts can no longer meet the offensive and defensive needs of Tianhong City. ”

"The subordinates understand that the pills have been distributed according to their situation.

Among them, there are nine Earth Martial Peaks who are expected to break through the Heavenly Martial Rank 1 Corpse Dog Realm. Everything else is expected to break through the fifth or sixth level of the Earth Martial Arts.

The subordinates will urge them to break through as soon as possible and fight for the waiting master. Wen Junshan's speech was as crisp as iron, and Zhuan Er frowned and said, "Master Hou, we should have our own Dan Master Refiner Formation Master." Otherwise, just rely on that bit of crystal coins to sit and eat nothing. Can't stand up to the cost. ”

"That's right, Lord Hou, looking at all the major sects, including the major academies, all have their own Danshi Instrument Masters. Only by constantly refining the elixir can the weapon be inexhaustible. Otherwise, no amount of crystals will be able to withstand consumption. After all, the finished Dan red is much more expensive than the material, and if you have a Dan master, you can save a lot of money. Yokomoto said.

"I'll ask my eldest brother about this to see if I can be seconded from the Medicine King Valley to two or three Dan Masters. As for the instrument, it is difficult, the instrumentainist is a noble profession in our Zhao country, and even if there is, we can't afford to invite it. Ye Juntian nodded.

"Yes. That's just one step at a time. Wen Junshan said a little depressed.

Two days later, Wangxianghou set off for Tianhong City with a few hundred followers. The trumpets sounded in unison. Huang Wenxue and the Qingzhou generals were all present to see him off. Huang Wenxue is purely for show, for the people of Qingzhou.

Ye Juntian ignored him, and after acting simply, he led people straight to Tianhong City.

Red City, a medium-sized city with a population of two million. It is larger than the average county town, but much smaller than Qingzhou. However, as the main city, Celestial Red City has six small county towns under its jurisdiction.

They are 'Yucheng', 'Tucheng', 'Yuecheng', 'Ningcheng', 'Mucheng' and 'Gangcheng'.

None of these six small counties had a population of more than half a million. But. The geographical location of the six small county towns is quite important. Because, they are all on the border with the Sun Country. It can also be called the six knives of the Scarlet City, the six Acropolises.

The six county towns, with Azure City as the core, formed six lines of defense against the Sun Kingdom.

Because it is located on the border line. Therefore, the unified feature of these cities is that the walls are high, thick and wide. Wrap the whole city tightly.

The Seven Cities were on high security at all times, and there were generals and soldiers patrolling the towers twelve hours a day.

Moreover, the city gate is very strict. The main thing is to prevent the spies of the Sun Kingdom from getting in and causing sabotage.

Because it is located on the border line, some Jiangyang thieves and murderers who can't get along in Zhao State like to flee here. If Zhao Guo and Huang Yiwei really chased after them, they would cross the border and flee to a foreign country.

As a result, these seven cities are a mixed bag. In addition, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the jungle is dense.

People are being killed and robbed every day, and the law and order situation is extremely chaotic. And the lords of the major counties and cities are tired of dealing with foreign enemies, and they are simply unable to rectify the law and order in the city.

Moreover, the six satellite cities will be captured by the Sun Kingdom from time to time. Soon after, it was recaptured, and so on.

There were countless dead and wounded, and all those who could move were removed. Only the poor are left who cannot be moved. As a result, the people are bored and complained.

The young and middle-aged people in the city are almost dead, and it is a dream to conscript. Because, there is no source of soldiers at all.

One day, Ye Juntian and his party arrived at the first city under his rule, Yucheng.

And Fang Yu, the city lord of Yucheng, had already received a report and waited in front of the city with a group of old and weak soldiers.

"Alas, I can't imagine that Yucheng, which has a history of 2,000 years, is now about to become a pile of ruins. "I saw the ruined towers and the walls of the city with huge holes exposed. Wen Junshan couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

"The fighting continues, and the walls that were breached a few days ago have not yet had time to be repaired. Hou Ye, it's not that my jade doesn't want to repair it, it's too late. Also, if there is no money, how can you repair it if you are not in the prime of life in the city?" As soon as the city lord saw Ye Juntian, he poured bitter water.

"Yes, Hou Ye. I just hit once the day before yesterday. The Sun Kingdom sent 10,000 elite soldiers. The Fang City Lord swore to protect it to the death. Otherwise, the Yucheng you see today would have already changed its flag. Yucheng garrison general, bronze armor general Li Wang said angrily.

"How many troops does Yucheng have, and what is the strength?" Ye Juntian asked.

"The total number of defenders is 10,000, but the strong ones are basically dead.

The rest are hard to find even a Tianwu general. Although the defenders said that the banner was still an ironclad corps.

However, in fact, even the Wooden Armor Corps is inferior. It's all empty.

The dignified Ironclad Corps was actually composed mainly of the Pulse Realm and the Human Martial Realm. Even the small leaders of the soldiers of the Diwu Peak are hard to leave a few. Li Wang's eyes were a little moist.

"Why don't you ask the commander of the Tianhong City garrison for help?" Wen Junshan asked.

"Please. Ask for it every day. But the big marshal said that they were also tight.

Moreover, they also have to protect the main city of Tianhong, and there are no soldiers to send. They just asked us to recruit new soldiers, but how can we recruit without money?

When people come in, they can't drink the northwest wind, and they will fight to the death for you.

Not to mention anything else, the Fang City Lord's Mansion is almost unable to eat white rice now.

Cook porridge and drink every day in the hope that the upper authorities can pull out more food and soldiers come down to replenish.

But after three years, our tears have dried up, but we don't see a single grain or soldier coming in.

I, Li Wang, will not leave, and I will never regret even if I die in battle. Li Wang's eyes were blazing.

"Is the same true of the other five cities under the Heavenly Red City?" Ye Juntian asked.

"It's hard to say, some cities are much better. After all. Some city lords have the surname Huang. Li Wang's words pointed and said, "However, there are only one or two." Most of them are in a similar situation to us. It won't last long if it goes on like this. ”

At this moment, the horn on the watchtower on the castle tower suddenly sounded.

"There is an enemy!" Li Wang stepped in front of the tower. Of course, Ye Juntian and the others were not slow, and stood on the top of the tower.

"General, the smoke is thick three hundred miles ahead. Such a thick smoke was a sign that a large number of enemies were coming. We need to get ready. Zhang Qian, the wooden armor general in charge of reconnaissance, said anxiously.

"Why don't you use a teleportation charm?" Ye Juntian asked with a blank face.

"yes. In this way, we can get accurate information about the enemy situation from the front in a timely manner. Wen Junshan also said with some dissatisfaction.

"Alas...... We can't afford this. General Lee looked embarrassed.

"Alas. I'm incompetent. I can't even afford a fourth-order messenger. City Lord Fang looked depressed.

"City Lord, it's not your fault. You've done your best. Because, you even sold your wife's earrings. General Lee said.

"Since we're here, let's meet them, General Li, and move forward as a whole. Ye Juntian sneered and gave an order.

"Master Hou, please leave Yucheng quickly. I'm in charge here. Li Wang's face was resolute.

"General Wood. Extraporaisa. Inform the people in the city to retreat to the rear. This time, it is estimated that the city will not be able to be saved. "City Lord Fang gave an order.

"No need!" Ye Juntian waved his hand.

"Master Hou, look at the smoke so strong. It was several times stronger than the smoke of the day before yesterday. There must be a super-strong among the attacking enemies, and the number of troops is at least 20,000. Hou Ye hurried to Tianhong City to deploy troops to come to the rescue, maybe there was still a glimmer of hope. "City Lord Fang is in a hurry.

"That's right, Hou Ye, there is a half-moon ring in the smoke. That's what I've got in touch with my men. If there is a half-blood wheel realm powerhouse, it will be half a blood ring. A blood ring is a blood wheel supernatural power. Scout General Zhang Qian hurriedly explained.

"Master Hou, if there is a half-blood wheel supernatural power, come over. Hou Ye still hurried to Tianhong City first. "Even Wen Junshan is in a hurry now.

Because, this thing doesn't know the details of Ye Juntian at all. I'm afraid that except for Bi Yuan's bird and the shadow man, no one else knows Ye Jun's bottom line.

"Master Hou, please go to Tianhong City immediately. I am willing to defend Yucheng to the death. Yuan Xiao was anxious, and took the guards to kneel down and plead.

"No one has listened to this order, has it? Needless to say, pass on this order. The whole army marched forward. Ye Juntian's face was flat, and Li Wang and the others felt dark in their hearts, thinking that Ye Juntian was too tender, just a stupid waiter who didn't understand fart.

"Waiting for the master!" General Li made his final exhortation. (To be continued.) )
