low-key is king

Chapter 296 Emperor Ancestor
"Your Majesty, Changning City is broken!"

When an extremely excited voice came into Ning Taiping's ears, it pulled him back from his lost thoughts, but there was no smile on his face.

"If my guess is correct, there must be nothing left in the city, right?"

This may be one of the reasons why Ning Taiping is in a bad mood, because he has already guessed the other party's plan.

I missed the messenger bird with my previous arrow, and the other party must also get the news of the fall of Golden Wind City.

This is extremely bad news for Jinfeng Nation, but it is great news for Xuanyang Nation. If this is the case, why does the other party stick to the doomed Changning City?

"Your Majesty knows things like a god. Lu Mingyang not only took away all the remaining soldiers, but even the whole city people evacuated early. At this moment, the city is full of fires, and all supplies are burned up!"

Hearing that person's first words, many people had weird expressions on their faces. Ning Taiping glanced at that person indifferently, making this person feel a little terrified, and wondered to himself if he was just telling the truth?

"I always feel that you are mocking me!"

Ning Taiping didn't say this, because he knew that the messenger didn't know the news of the fall of the Golden Wind Kingdom. From the perspective of the record alone, breaking Changning City was indeed a big victory.

But in the minds of those who understand the truth of the facts, the so-called predictability is really a strong mockery.

However, Ning Taiping still couldn't attack an orderly who didn't know the truth, it was extremely depressing.

"Decree, the army will not take a rest, and directly send troops to Tianyang City!"

Ning Taiping took a deep breath, as soon as he said this, the messenger raised his head in disbelief, secretly thinking that after such a tragic battle, he didn't even give him a day's rest?

It's just that this man doesn't know the anxiety in His Majesty's heart. The current rush for time is completely different from the previous rush for time. If there is a delay, the danger of annihilation of the entire army will be increased.

Ning Taiping knew clearly that the Xuanyang Shenji Battalion would not really wait in the Golden Wind Capital, maybe they had already sent troops south, waiting to attack him back and forth with the army of Zhendong King Lu Mingyang.

Even the family members of the military generals and ministers who will go south with Shenjiying at that time may be there. When that time comes, he may not be able to turn the tide when the military morale is greatly lost.

The current strategy is to capture Xuanyang City first, and perhaps use the lives of the Lu family of Xuanyang, or the Zhao family of the prime minister's mansion, to make the Shenji camp cast a taboo.

After all, Ning Taiping knew very well that Guan Xu, the Confucian general of Shenji Camp, was the proud disciple of Xuanyang Prime Minister Zhao Qidong in the early years, and later he learned both civil and martial arts.

After thinking this through, Ning Taiping couldn't wait any longer. As for whether the low-level soldiers were exhausted, that was out of his consideration.

Even if it is death, he must immediately come to the city of Tianyang.

Seeing that Ning Taiping didn't change his mind, the messenger could only respectfully retreat and pass the order, and all the generals and ministers also withdrew from the big tent one after another.

They all know that His Majesty the Monarch is in a very bad mood, so they don't want to touch his bad luck. They should think about what to do in the future.

What a mess.

"Imperial Ancestor, is there really no other way?"

After everyone left the king tent for a while, and Ning Taiping stared at the tent door for a while, a soft questioning sound suddenly came out of his mouth, as if he was talking to himself.

But just after Ning Taiping finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in Wang's tent.

His face looked extremely old, but his aura was extremely majestic, not even inferior to that Gu family's first family patron, Gu Tiancheng.

If there were outsiders here, they would probably be shocked when they heard what Ning Taiping called that person.

There is probably one and only one who can make Ning Taiping call the word "Emperor Ancestor", right?
As we all know, Ning Taiping's emperor died many years ago, his death is probably more certain than Gu Tiancheng, why did he appear in the king's tent today?

"It seems that we have all underestimated the background of Xuanyang Kingdom!"

The old emperor sighed slightly, but in his tone, he couldn't hear much depression, as if he didn't care too much about the life and death of Ning's royal family in the capital of Jinfeng Kingdom.

The royal family is the most ruthless. The Ning royal family he belonged to back then is actually quite at odds with the current Ning royal family. This so-called emperor's ancestor cannot be regarded as the same branch as Ning Taiping.

If Ning Taiping hadn't found a special treasure of heaven and earth, which allowed the emperor's lifespan to increase for decades, he wouldn't have been willing to devote himself to this effort.

"Emperor Ancestor, you are a strong man who has completed the six realms, can you sneak into Tianyang City..."

Ning Taiping suddenly raised his head, before he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to wipe his neck, and the emperor naturally understood his meaning immediately.

Today's Ning Taiping has become a solitary army, his only chance is to take Tianyang City, but now he is really afraid of that East Town King Lu Mingyang.

If the ancestor of the Great Master of the Six Realms of Consummation could remove Lu Mingyang's head without anyone noticing, then he would have no worries.

The Xuanyang Kingdom without a leader will also become vulnerable.

As for the Xuanyang Shenji Battalion in the rear, it will become a lone army like him at that time. In this way, his ambition of Ning Taiping may be realized one day.

"I can only say that there is a chance, but I am not fully sure!"

However, what the emperor said made Ning Taiping a little disappointed, because he heard what the emperor meant, and he didn't want to take such a risk.

In other words, this emperor managed to extend his lifespan for decades with the help of some natural and earthly treasures. He would never make fun of his own life.

It is not that there are no six-realm powerhouses in Xuanyang country, and as time goes by, the emperor actually has some jealousy towards Xuanyang country.

What if the other party will follow suit and set up a scheme to wait for him?
Assassinating a great master of martial arts in the same realm, even if the emperor's ancestor was perfect in the six realms and Lu Mingyang was a minor success in the six realms, it would not be an easy task.

At that time, if the strong men in Tianyang City are alarmed, the chances of him being besieged and killed will be extremely high. A martial artist who has completed the six realms will not be able to fly into the sky and escape from the ground after all, and even if there are many ants, he can kill an elephant.

"Go ahead with the original plan. If there is a chance, I will do it!"

Seemingly seeing the trace of dissatisfaction in Ning Taiping's eyes, the emperor could only offer a word of comfort, but of course, Ning Taiping couldn't be truly satisfied.

But now, it is impossible for him to order the emperor to beat him again and again, so he can only take one step at a time.

There is at least one strong man who has completed the six realms by his side, and he thinks it is no problem to save his life.

A cryptic conversation ended like this, and the next thing Ning Taiping has to do is to win Tianyang City as quickly as possible, this is his only way out.

…………

In the next half month, on the road from Changning City to Tianyang City, there were only a few empty cities left. Ning Taiping won the control of these cities with almost no loss.

Subduing the enemy without fighting was originally the best strategy in a war, but Ning Taiping, who has been in the city for several times, has no such feeling at all, only a feeling of aggrieved punching in the cotton with all his strength .

Fortunately, although Ning Taiping was depressed, this situation was already in his expectation. He knew that the entire military strength of Xuanyang Kingdom should be gathered in Tianyang City, and that would be a tough battle.

Almost all the soldiers and civilians of Xuanyang Kingdom were paying attention to this final battle, until the day came when the 50 Golden Wind army finally approached Tianyang City.

And at the top of the north gate of Tianyang City, King of Zhendong Lu Mingyang was wearing armor, and his face looked a little dignified, as if he could see the King of Jinfeng far below through the sky.

"Yue Zhang, where is the Shenji Camp?"

Lu Mingyang withdrew his gaze, and then asked softly. After the voice came out, everyone around him pricked up their ears, and they all wanted to hear an answer immediately.

Prime Minister Zhao Qidong was originally guarding Tianyang City, and because of Lu Xun's relationship, he also had some connections with Tingxinlou.

Tingxinlou's intelligence speed is much faster than Xuanyang Kingdom's own intelligence speed.

Lu Mingyang also knew that Zhao Qidong had just gone to Tingxinlou before, and he probably knew the location of Shenjiying, so he couldn't wait to ask, and was too lazy to wait for his own information.

"In less than three days, we will be there!"

The eight words from Zhao Qidong's mouth made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that it is impossible for Tianyang City to be unable to defend for three days, right?

Due to Prime Minister Zhao Qidong's preparations, Tianyang City is now well-stocked with food and grass, and has prepared countless defensive equipment. When the opponent attacks the city, the Golden Wind army will be caught off guard.

It's just that the Golden Wind army outside obviously has no way out, and the so-called mourning army must win is not just talking.

They all had some imaginations and guesses about what kind of madness Ning Taiping would have if he put all his eggs in one basket.

If there is no Shenji Battalion, although Tianyang City can be defended for a period of time, it cannot be said to be a stable victory, and it may even be broken by the crazy Ning Taiping.

At that time, the advantages established by the Shenji Battalion will be gone.

"Did everyone hear that?"

After getting the answer he wanted, Lu Mingyang reached out and pulled out the king sword from his waist, and then shouted in a deep voice: "After three days, it will be victory!"

woo woo woo...

When Lu Mingyang's shout just fell, the sound of high-pitched horns sounded at the same time among the Golden Wind army outside the north gate.

Teams of Goldwind soldiers came out in greater numbers and started the siege battle.

The battle became intense right from the beginning, and the water in the moat was filled again and again, and was dug up again and again by the soldiers defending the city.

Among them, the casualties need not be detailed.
