Chapter 178 Mantis Catching Cicadas

Xijing City, the last city left in Xihao Country at this moment, has changed in feng shui. Once upon a time, Zhu Zhou would think of his current fate.

He desperately wanted to invite the barbarians to knock on the gate. This time he not only invited the grassland tribe, but also sent people to the coalition forces of the Western Regions. However, he was still one step too late. The news outside the gate had not been sent back, and the city of Xijing where he was located was in danger.

Xijing City is now surrounded by layers of civil and military officials, as well as the people, fleeing and scattering. Only a few loyal ministers remained stationed on the city tower and vowed to live and die with Xijing City.

Zhu Zhou touched the dragon chaise under him and murmured as if mocking: "The throne of imperial power is planned in every way. In the end, the so-called ambitions and death are all vain."

"Once the father, brother and brother!" He regretted it a little. He lost everything for all this, leaving only coldness and emperor's mind.

However, his eyes soon became firm: "In life, in order to dominate the world, nothing can be abandoned. I don't regret it, it's just that God's will cannot be violated, and my life will will not be allowed!"

He stood up and said, "Come on the city gate. I want to supervise the battle myself. I want to see what these traitors can do to me. Even if they die, you will come to accompany me soon."

Zhu Zhou's expression was as normal, but his eyes were endless madness. In this battle, he wanted to drag all these people to Xijing City and wait for the barbarians to enter the pass, and the whole world would be buried with me!

"Zhu Zhou is not good at all, and the whole world will attack him. If you open the city gate and abandon your weapons and surrender, we can let you wait for a way out. If you are stubborn, when the city gate is broken, you will definitely be killed without a complete body!"

The coalition forces in front of the city gate called in a bid, hoping to use a few words to open the city gate so as not to cause huge losses to the siege.

Someone immediately answered their words, but Zhu Zhou shouted coldly: "The thief is rampant, I am here, see how you can destroy my Xijing City, hahaha, come on, you will all die soon!"

The people outside the city could not hear the specific meaning of Zhu Zhou's words, and thought they were mocking them for being incompetent and unable to take over the Xijing City. Some of them immediately didn't want to talk nonsense and were ready to directly attack the city and destroy the arrogant people.

Our six countries, millions of coalition forces, now you only have one Xihao Kingdom with more than 100,000 troops left in Xijing. What can you do to stop our troops? You dare to speak out here.

Someone will definitely die if he dies, but that person will definitely be you Zhu Zhou!

After a few commanders discussed the situation, they each attacked the city from multiple directions. Xijing City had just a few defenders. After dispersing their troops, they could take it down faster!

"Strike the city for me, regardless of whether I live or not. The first person to go to the city will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and the one who opens the city gate will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and the leader of the city will be awarded with a thousand gold."

Only with rewards can the soldiers use their lives more and burst out with stronger combat power.

In the huge Xijing City, the soldiers and horses coming to it now are like a black torrent, which can be submerged in the next moment.

The rain of arrows spreads all over the sky, and the mottled city walls are dyed with red makeup in a moment. Human lives are fragile, and the continuous casualties make hills accumulate under the city.

How can tens of thousands of people block a city wall block a million troops? No matter how many huge rocks and woods are there, even if there are more arrows, even if one is exchanged for ten, they cannot stop the opponent from attacking the city.

Zhu Zhou personally killed the enemy to boost morale. He had no intention of living at this moment. He could only kill, kill enough people, and pay tribute to himself. He was about to capture Xijing. They must be very excited now! But I am waiting, the barbarians are coming, and I am waiting for you below.

"Kill! Death, you all will die!"

I don’t know how long I have been killing the city wall. Anyway, he feels red in front of him, and he is tired. He really hasn’t seen enough of this country.

But the next moment, darkness completely swallowed it up.

The collapse of Xihao Kingdom was actually Zhu Shang, and it was just another person to become the emperor again. The things that many alliances asked for were reached today, and the alliance should almost be disbanded.

However, before disbanding, everyone still had to properly allocate the interests discussed, and for this reason they had a fierce debate in the imperial palace in Xijing City.

However, before the result was released, hundreds of thousands of soldiers came in a hurry and shouted: "The barbarians knocked on the gates, and the Wuyue Kingdom and the Western Regions border lost twenty cities in a row."

It seemed like a coincidence that soldiers from Shang and Zhou dynasties and South Korea also arrived at the same time, shouting: "The Northern grasslands invade, Your Majesty asks the general to rescue quickly."

How can such a situation be delayed? The commanders of various countries told Zhu Shang: "Everything will be distributed according to the previous discussions, and we will say goodbye first."

Zhu Shang didn't care much about everyone's words, and it was hard to say other places, but he was preparing to find excuses to delay the land of Shang, Zhou and South Korea that he occupied in the past. This was the result of his discussion with the Prime Minister and others. Anyway, sooner or later, he would have to tear his face off, so it would be better to keep consuming it.

However, the wars in the Western Regions and the North provided him with excuses for the world. As for these barbarians' invasions, he didn't care about them at all. These people were eyeing the Central Plains for a year. Now, the Central Plains are not just making trouble.

I believe the same is true this time. When the troops from various countries return, they will be repelled sooner or later. As the barbarians are restrained, they can give him more time to prepare.

Standing in this Golden Palace that he was familiar with, which he could not be more familiar with, Zhu Shang was only thinking about the high dragon throne. He once thought it was easy to take, and after many twists and turns, he finally sat upright again.

Walking towards the dragon chaise step by step, the feeling of going up was really different. Even though he had been favored by the Prime Minister and General before, sitting here seemed to be in his hands.

"I am paying homage to Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" General Chen Bingshu knelt down and bowed. He was always loyal, and if he chose Zhu Shang, he would naturally support him.

When the others saw this, they knelt down and shouted: "Long live my emperor."

Most of the people here are military generals, after all, they are fighting. In addition to boosting morale, Zhu Shang followed him to return to his former home as soon as possible.

However, Qin Bin and others have already begun to set off. The turmoil in the court has just ended and it needs to be rectified. Zhu Shang, like his father Zhu Hongtian, has the ambition to unify the world. Now he can finally hold great power, and the next step is to work hard to govern the world.

But what he didn't know was that his so-called ambition would usher in huge obstacles, and even almost cut off the ownership of Xihao Kingdom and even the Central Plains.

In the Western Regions and the north, the iron hooves of the alien race seemed to be able to break through everything in front of us. When the troops of various countries returned to help, many counties had already fallen into their hands. This time, these alien races would not miss this excellent opportunity. The scale was not the least, but it was absolutely unprecedented. The power of only one country could not stop it, let alone the soldiers and horses of many countries were a little tired due to internal struggles.

"Kill me, slaughter these lambs from the Central Plains. In the future, this wealthy piece will belong to the warriors of our grassland."

"Hahaha, and the women of Central Plains Shuiling are all ours."

Arguably, cruel and fierce

Evil, these people do not regard the people of the Central Plains as human beings. They kill, kill, plunder, and even use them as food, which is simply crazy.

With the continuous news of defeats, in just half a month, Shang and Zhou dynasties and South Korea almost gave it a smooth horse. If it weren't for the timely return to the aid, it would be impossible to directly attack the imperial capitals of both countries.

But even if they block their troops for a while, they cannot save the decline. If they continue to be so stalemate, they will lose sooner or later.

The alliance has just disbanded and seems to have a tendency to reconcile again, but this time they are dealing with people from aliens. Their lips are dead and their teeth are cold. Everyone understands that if the Shang, Zhou and South Korea fall, the Western Regions cannot resist, and the Central Plains will fall into the hands of aliens, and they will be the sinners of the nation.

"What's going on in Xihao Kingdom? When will Zhu Shang send troops to aid?" Ji Wei's face was solemn in the Golden Palace, the great capital of Shang and Zhou Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, the envoy has replied that the Xihao Kingdom has sent 500,000 troops to the north to support it, and it will take about half a month to arrive." said a minister.

"Half Month? Can you still hold on with the current situation? What do you think of other people?"

"The three families agreed to send troops of 250,000 and Ziyun Kingdom 100,000. Wu and Yue need to deal with the Western Regions, and other forces also need to increase their troops there."

"Oh, I hope I can resist it. I will recruit soldiers from all over the country. Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. In this time of crisis, we need to unite the country and ultimately rely on ourselves."

"Yes, your Majesty."

The escalation of the war and the collision between the two civilizations, the alien race will not have any morality or mercy towards the people of the Central Plains, and killing people with a knife will make them even more excited.

All countries are discussing reinforcements. This is the first time in the nominal Central Plains' unanimous war to the outside world. However, because each has its own belongs, the effect is not as beautiful as imagined, and it is still just a hard persistence.

However, they ignored a place before and did not consider it at this moment, that was Yuyang County. In their eyes, although Yuyang County seemed strong, its innate conditions meant that it could not bring more troops there. Before, the countries did not move there, but it was just that their own troops were involved. Moreover, Yuyang County did not seem to have the intention to compete for hegemony.

But they didn't expect that the one from Yuyang County was the truly powerful one among them.

Faced with such a situation, he asked in Liu Feiyun's house in Yuyang County, "Liu Yi, how did the Empire decide?"

"Your Majesty, your proposal has been passed there. Although most of the empire has been exploring the seas in recent years, it has not stopped drawing the Central Plains and the surrounding areas."

In the hearts of these generals of the Yanhuang Empire, sooner or later, the whole world belongs to the Yanhuang Empire. It is necessary to draw your own territory in detail.

"When will the troops be sent?"

"After half a month, a division of troops will be sent to enter from Beihaikou, sweep across the country directly, and clear out all the tribes on the grassland."

Millions of young and middle-aged people from the grassland tribe went south, and most of the remaining ones are the elderly, weak, sick and disabled. And even if his tribe returns to help, a division's well-equipped troops will be enough.

Liu Feiyun felt that this was quite reasonable. He even felt that a division had a lot of troops. You should know that the firearms of the Yanhuang Empire have been upgraded again. The more powerful firepower makes the cavalry on which the grassland tribes rely for survival are not worth mentioning at all.
