low-key is king

Chapter 280 You guys are so ruthless!

"Master Prime Minister, quickly open the city gate and let me wait in!"

After a while, more and more defeated soldiers under the capital city of Jinfeng Kingdom, and there was a sound of crying and shouting everywhere, making the faces of the civil servants and generals of Jinfeng on the city wall pale.

Whether it is the prime minister Fang Lun or the Queen Gu over there, they are all desperate, secretly thinking that the capital of the country for hundreds of years, is it really going to be broken by a dynasty today?

Goldwind has been established for hundreds of years, and it is not without civil strife before, but it is the first time in history that an enemy country attacked Goldwind City, and even made them dare not go out of the city to fight.

Especially the information brought by the scout just now made everyone feel happy about the victory. Unexpectedly, this kind of happy feeling only lasted for half a day before it was declared shattered.

This transition from ecstasy to despair is the most unacceptable.

One moment they were still applauding for Yang Shu's attack on Ming City, and they even held a banquet to celebrate his success, but the next moment Xuanyang Shenji Battalion was about to attack Jinfeng City.

It took almost only a few hours from the big victory to the big defeat, and even those old Jinfeng ministers who were known for their calmness could not be calm at all.

"Fang Xiang, you can't open the city!"

Empress Gu Zi's face was originally pale, but now she seemed to have turned into a blank sheet of paper, but she still resisted the trembling of her figure, walked to the edge of the city wall, stared at the defeated soldiers below and spoke in a cold voice.

"Yes, Prime Minister, this city gate cannot be opened, otherwise our country is in danger!"

The other civil servants also reacted, and they were all trying to persuade Fang Lun not to open the city, but those generals didn't say a word, especially the expression of a certain general was extremely ugly.

This is Yang Shu's immediate boss. Even though Yang Shu belongs to the prime minister's office, he also has a role in the army. A general with 2 troops is nothing in the military system of Jinfeng Kingdom .

There are still more than [-] defeated soldiers at the Golden Wind City Gate. These are elite soldiers, otherwise Fang Lun would not have sent them out to attack Ming City.

"Are you just watching them die under the God Killing Machine of Jinfeng Shenji Battalion?"

The military commander's face looked a bit grim. He didn't want to see the elite soldiers he had trained himself die like this.

Although he clearly knew that once the city gate was opened, the entire Golden Wind City might fall, but he really felt sorry for his soldiers, especially when those soldiers were screaming for help at the top of their lungs.

"Whether it is to lose these more than 1 ordinary soldiers, or to keep the Golden Wind Capital, doesn't General Xiao Yan even understand such a simple truth?"

Prime Minister Fang Lun gave the general a cold look. At this time, he had regained some sense, showing the demeanor of a prime minister of a country.

As soon as this remark came out, many people showed anger on their faces, especially those civil servants.

Speaking of which, the leading general named Xiao Yan and the Grand Marshal Xiao Lie are cousins ​​with the same surname.

The prestige of General Lieyan of the Jinfeng Country has already spread throughout the surrounding countries, and even His Majesty the Emperor of the Daxuan Dynasty is said to have heard of it.

This time Ning Taiping took Xiao Lie to attack Xuanyang City, and left Xiao Yan to guard the capital because he was actually afraid of a fire in the backyard. I have to say that this King of Jinfeng is really cautious.

Of the two brothers, General Lie Yan, Xiao Lie is good at attacking, while Xiao Yan is good at defending. Ning Taiping is very relieved to put the latter on the guard of the Golden Wind Capital. Coupled with Prime Minister Fang Lun's strategizing, he will keep Golden Wind City safe.

However, the development of the situation is undoubtedly out of Ning Taiping's control, and the King of Jinfeng is far away under the city of Changning, which is tens of thousands of miles away. How can he control the ever-changing battle situation in the capital of Jinfeng?

In addition, after the news of the battle in Beilin City, Xiao Yan certainly hated Xuanyang Kingdom deeply, but naturally he couldn't treat Prime Minister Fang Lun who had a "bad idea" too much.

This kind of conflict had been accumulated in Xiao Yan's heart for many days, and it didn't explode until today. Hearing Fang Lun's cold voice, he was about to curse directly.

"General Xiao Yan, you should put the overall situation first!"

However, just when Xiao Yan was about to lose his temper, another cold voice suddenly came from the side, which made his heart tremble, and he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

Because the speaker's mind may not be stronger than Fang Lun's, but his status in the Golden Wind Nation is far higher than Fang Lun's. He is the current Empress of the Golden Wind Nation.

Now that the monarch Ning Taiping is not in the capital, the acting prime minister Fang Lun is in charge of Yiying affairs in name, but the real backbone is the Ning family, and the Ning family is naturally dominated by the empress.

No matter how much Xiao Yan disliked Fang Lun, he did not dare to be disrespectful to the empress. Generals like them were extremely loyal, and sometimes they were a bit foolishly loyal.

To be honest, the Queen Gu Zi at this moment is just trying to calm down, she clearly knows that if the civil servants and generals in the city are at odds, if there is a quarrel again, it will be the end of the world.

In any case, Xuanyang Shenji Battalion hadn't attacked Jinfeng City yet, and they still had a city to defend.

As long as the Golden Wind Capital is guarded and His Majesty the Monarch takes over the Xuanyang Kingdom, what else can this lone army of Xuanyang do?
"Golden Wind Army under the city, listen up!"

Fang Lun, the prime minister here, didn't care about Xiao Yan's glaring look anymore, he turned his gaze to the south gate wall, and then gave a loud shout, which finally calmed down the commotion below.

All the Golden Wind soldiers raised their heads, looked at the prime minister, and then at Xiao Yan who was not far away.

A sense of unease rose in their hearts. After all, the city gate has not been opened yet, not even a crack.

"If you want to survive, then pick up the weapons in your hands, turn around, and fight to the death with Xuanyang Shenji Battalion!"

Fang Lun's face was expressionless, and after he finished speaking, his eyes passed the more than [-] Golden Wind army, and saw the Xuanyang Shenji Battalion that was approaching Golden Wind City.

"Master Prime Minister, aren't you telling us to die?"

One of the Golden Wind military generals who had just entered the fourth realm had a gloomy face and shouted directly. This statement was echoed by many people, but it only attracted the sneer of many civil servants on the city wall.

Xiao Yan couldn't bear it, but after seeing the empress's sharp eyes from the corner of his eye, he finally held back what he wanted to say. In fact, he didn't know this truth.

"A defeated general dares to speak bravely?"

Fang Lun had recovered his good eloquence at this time, and he sneered and said: "A total of [-] elite soldiers besieged a Ming city with only [-] troops, but they were defeated so badly. It's a shame that you still have the courage to escape." Back to Golden Wind City?"

What he said made the faces of the Golden Wind soldiers under the city a little flushed. Is it because he is not brave?Is it because I am not working hard enough?

No, it's just because Xuanyang Kingdom's god-killing machine is too powerful, they really have no other way, they were shot before anyone approached, how can this battle be fought?
To be honest, these Golden Wind elite soldiers were really not afraid of death. When the Shenji Battalion ran out of ammunition and food, they once attacked the north gate of Ming City.

It's a pity that the Xuanyang Shenji Battalion had better luck. At the critical moment when it was about to be destroyed, Lu Xun returned with the sulfur mine.

The Shenji Battalion, which was replenished with ammunition, seemed to be brought back to life, beating more than 2 Jinfeng elite soldiers to ashes and armor.

Strictly speaking, this is a non-war crime, and the opponent has advanced weapons far beyond this era.

When the terrifying weapon of the God Killing Machine first appeared in the war between the two countries under the mountain, almost no one could resist it.

"General Xiao Yan, don't you care about us?"

Seeing that the Prime Minister couldn't make it through, the generals of the four realms directly turned their attention to Xiao Yan.

Although this man trains his troops extremely hard, he has always attached great importance to his subordinates, so they have that glimmer of hope.

"I, Xiao Yan, have no weak soldiers. If you want to live, you take up weapons and destroy the Xuanyang Shenji Battalion. If you can win this battle, this general will personally celebrate for you!"

Xiao Yan withdrew his eyes from the queen, without even looking at Fang Lun, but turned to the city. After these words were spoken, the hearts of the soldiers in the city sank directly to the bottom of the valley.

They could hear the helplessness in Xiao Yan's tone, but they finally understood a truth, between the destruction of the Golden Wind Nation and their own lives, the high-ranking members of the Golden Wind on the city wall chose the latter.

From the overall situation, the choice of Fang Lun and the Queen is understandable. The only thing they can stop the Shenjiying now is the thickness of the high wall. In terms of field battles, it is impossible to be the opponent of the Shenjiying.

For the more than 1 generals under the city, they are the abandoned party, and the mood can be imagined.

After fighting for the Golden Wind Country for many years, did he end up like this?

"You guys... are so ruthless!"

A look of determination flashed across the eyes of the generals of the Four Realms Martial Artists. This feeling of being abandoned was really uncomfortable, but there was nothing they could do, and it was impossible for them to climb the tens of feet high city wall of the capital.

"Brothers, it seems that there is only one way to go!"

After turning around these thoughts in his mind, the military general of the four realms no longer expected the Golden Wind City to open the city gates. Seeing him turn his head, the despair on his face turned into a look of determination.

It seems that putting them to death and then rebirth is reflected in this group of Golden Wind soldiers. Since the rear can no longer be counted on, they can only rely on themselves to fight a bloody way.

The generals of the four realms talked about fighting to the death, but in his heart, he was very unwilling to fight in order to abandon his Golden Wind Capital, or the Golden Wind Royal Family. This kind of mood was undoubtedly extremely contradictory.

But now is not the time to think about these things. The Xuanyang Shenji Battalion in the rear is getting closer and closer. It is too late for them to escape from the two directions on the side. They can only desperately save their lives.

Fang Lun and Xiao Yan above said one sentence correctly, this is their only way to survive.

At least after killing all of the Shenji Camp, the high-level officials of Jinfeng Country will not kill them all.

But the Xuanyang Shenji Battalion in the rear is the army of the enemy country, they don't care about any Golden Wind soldiers, as long as they stand between them and the Golden Wind Capital, they will all be trampled over.
