Chapter 160: A Naked Threat
However, the conversation with Shi Yan did not make any sense, but Joseph did not immediately
"Brother Huang, do you know that I never thought of seeking the throne in this way? If I succeed in this battle, maybe I can change my fate, but if I fail, I will become the first unscrupulous descendant of the royal family in the history of the Huoyun Empire to openly rebel. ”
Joseph stared at Cloud City, and his heart couldn't help but feel gloomy. He has been working hard for many years and is cautious, in fact, in order to successfully take over the throne and become a legitimate successor to his brother after a hundred years. However, the empire did not give him such an opportunity. After the assassination of the prince, a huge trap was placed in front of him, and he jumped off in desperation.
Cloud City, as the center of imperial power and the seat of the royal family, has had countless imperial power struggles in the history of hundreds of years, but he Joseph is still the first person to really come to the city and seize power by force.
"Prepare to attack!" Joseph retracted his gaze, waved one hand in a desperate wave, and commanded in a deep voice to an officer beside him.
At this time, there was a sudden commotion at the head of the imperial capital, and a large group of soldiers appeared on the wall of the imperial capital with a group of people.
"Listen to the rebel officers and soldiers under the city!"
A Qingyue voice came from the head of the imperial capital. The legendary hero of the empire walked to the head of the city.
"You were all once an honorable soldier of the Empire, but today, you have the misfortune to go to the opposite side of the Empire and become one of the shameful rebels. An army. From the day of birth, but to serve the interests of the state, to be a violent apparatus of the state, the military should definitely not become a tool in the hands of a few people, a victim of the struggle for power. What you have done today has brought shame on the proud title of the soldier!"
Liuyun waved his hand lightly, and a group of soldiers escorted dozens of death row prisoners to the front of the city wall.
"Keep your eyes open and see the consequences of obsession!"
Soldiers on the city walls. Pushed the death row prisoner to the wall, swung his broadsword, and slashed at the death row prisoner's head. Dozens of human heads flew down from the wall, and blood gushed from the broken necks, leaving red and bright blood marks on the ancient city walls. The headless corpses were then vigorously thrown out of the city by the soldiers.
"Those people are all relatives and friends of the rebels we have found!" At Liuyun's finger, a group of people in tattered clothes and scars wept bitterly under the whips of the soldiers. Shout out to the rebels outside the city.
"Charlie, don't be a rebel anymore!
"Jack, if you don't think about me, you have to think about your brothers and sisters!"
"John, being a rebel is looking for death!"
"I promise, the obsessed person, all his family members will not escape my butcher's knife!" Liuyun said. Walk in front of the city walls. Receiving the bloody broadsword in the hand of a soldier, the energy in his body was running, his hands were concentrated, and he threw it out of the city with shaking hands. The broadsword was like thunder, whistling, and pierced in front of the rebels.
Threatened, like a woman, **naked. The most lethal. Face this scene. The hearts of the rebel officers and soldiers were filled with sadness. And the voice of the city called. Let the rebel soldiers feel that it is their families who are suffering in that city. In the hearts of many rebel soldiers. All of them have produced great fear. They began to fear about their fate and their families if they lost the war.
By this time, the rebel assault had finally begun. What was originally planned as a tentative attack turned into a real siege battle under the fury of Joseph. Feeling that his face was damaged, he was bent on using the power of a blow to reinvigorate his officers and soldiers. However, the siege force had barely approached the city walls when the gates of the imperial capital opened.
"Defend the empire to the death!"
With an earth-shattering roar, Mogo's death squad burst out of the city gates and launched a fierce assault on the besieging rebels. One side has high morale and sees death as home, while the other side has no intention of fighting and has low morale. The besieging forces suffered heavy casualties under the sudden attack. Although the continuous increase of follow-up troops eventually repelled the death squads, the strength and fearlessness shown by this group of emperors for the country left a deep impression among the rebel soldiers.
"Boss, it looks like it's working well!"
Alexander looked at the battle situation in front of him and said with a smile. He came up with all kinds of ways to torture Joseph and the rebels, and Liuyun proposed to establish an image of the emperor's courage and tenacity, which caused greater psychological pressure on the rebels.
"When the two armies fight each other, what they fight for is one breath, and when they meet on a narrow road, they fight for a fierce word. In the past few days, I have been tossing and turning, and this has been my longest
Joseph's 200,000 rebels have become a soulless and fearless one. ”
After a few days, Liuyun's confidence in the first battle of the imperial capital doubled. He was convinced that it was impossible for an army to maintain firm conviction and strong fighting spirit if it did not have its own great goal, driven only by greed and ****. No one is willing to be a tool in the hands of others, even Joseph wrote a lot of empty promises to the rebel officers and soldiers, but in the face of the cruel reality, these people will reconsider their choices.
"I wonder what is going on with my father and Anthony, but if there is good news, it will be a devastating blow to Joseph's rebels. At that time, it was time for Black Hawk to launch a thunderous blow!"
Liuyun stood on the city wall, looking to the north from afar, his eyes revealing a powerful battle intent.
At the same time, the orc kingdom also moved. The Orc Emperor, with his younger brother Prince Alke as his commander, led an army of 100,000 men, crossed the cold city, marched towards the *** plain, and launched an attack on the rear of Joseph's rebels. According to the agreement, in order to reduce the adverse impact of the orc kingdom's troops on the people's psychology, this orc army raised the banner of "counterinsurgency alliance" in the empire, abandoning the usual style of burning, killing and looting, and did not commit any offense to the people. But there was a bloody purge of the remaining rebel garrisons. The attack of this army was very incidental, and in just a few days, it swept away the rebels' forces in the province of ***, advanced to the province of Ayana, and cut off Joseph's retreat.
The Beast Emperor originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to send troops to the Fire Cloud Empire to make a big profit. But Ming Luo seemed to have guessed that he would have such an idea, and when he sent his retinue back to the Orc Empire, he sent a special letter to remind him.
"Your Majesty, this successful alliance with Huoyun is the first step towards the true integration of the Orc Kingdom with the human nation. If His Majesty wants the Orc Kingdom to receive more help from the Fire Cloud Empire, he must abide by the rules of the human game and use this opportunity to send troops to show the rational and trustworthy side of the orcs in front of the humans. The army should be ...... in the territory of the fire cloud"
After reading the letter, the Beast Emperor wisely listened to Mingluo's opinion and forcibly restrained the orc army. His approach really further strengthened the relationship between the orcs and the Huoyun Empire after the war, and received a lot of assistance from Huoyun.
"Why did he have to kill these rebel soldiers? I always felt that they were involuntary, and that Joseph should be to blame. He is a leader of the army, and he should be able to understand the helplessness of being a soldier!"
Hua Scarlet couldn't help but sigh lightly as she watched Liuyun throw the blood-stained broadsword out of the city.
Before the siege began, Mingluo went to see Hua Scarlet Tears again. This time, he offered to invite Hua Scarlet Tears to watch the battle together, and sure enough, he met her by the way. With the help of some people in the imperial capital, Mingluo successfully found a good place that was very close to the city wall and could observe the situation on the entire imperial capital wall.
"Before the war, stand up and deter the enemy. This hand of his is very beautiful. Mingluo praised sincerely.
"You, you don't understand, I don't think he should have done that. Hua Scarlet said, "These people are already captives, and they shouldn't be killed like this." And the relatives and friends of those rebel soldiers are even more innocent, so why torture them like this?"
"Miss, war is sometimes so cruel, no matter how kind a person is, after being soaked in blood for a long time, he will become hard-hearted. That's why I'm reluctant to get involved in the war. This time, I stayed in the imperial capital and didn't go back to the orc kingdom, in fact, I was afraid that after I went back, the beast emperor would let me lead the troops to the battle!"
Mingluo's words led to tears, but the latter still seemed preoccupied.
"Rose, do you see, that kid is better than me to find a place! While watching the battle, while picking up girls, there are a lot of snacks on the side, I will really enjoy it! That girl, it seems to be quite plump, superb!"
The sparrow was lying on the roof, looking at Mingluo and Hua in the distance with roses, and said enviously.
"Wow, he's so handsome!
"Why don't we go over and have a look?" "It would be nice to mix something up and eat!" the sparrow began to agitate for Jewel.
"Okay, we don't have anything to do right now anyway. Rose replied happily. She had no idea what the hell was going on in the sparrow's mind.
"Hey, I'm jealous, boy. How could such a superb beauty be so easy to get into your hands!, Lao Tzu must make you yellow!" Sparrow thought shamelessly.
