Heaven Defying Formation Mage

Chapter 498 Persuade to surrender
Just after hearing what the city lord said, Wei An waved his hands again and again: "No, no! Such a small number of troops is no match for the Vietnamese army! They have an army of [-]. If there is no support, we have no chance of winning!"

"Our city walls are very solid. If the Vietnamese army wants to attack, they will have to sacrifice a lot of people. I can mobilize some people to help defend the city. This battle is not without hope of victory..." the city lord pondered, thinking hard Take countermeasures.

Wei An directly vetoed it without even thinking about it: "You have never fought against the Vietnamese army, so you have no idea how terrifying they are!"

"General Wei An!" The city lord turned ugly, looked straight at him, and yelled sharply, "As the highest general, you actually want others to destroy your own prestige! Isn't it inappropriate?"

Being reprimanded face to face by the other party, Wei An was also a little bit embarrassed.But he knew that now was not the time to have a confrontation with the opponent, after all, he was the general of the defeated army and came to defect to the opponent.

Wei An held his temper and said in a low voice: "Master Jiang, you don't know that there is a powerful Nian in the Vietnamese army. When we fought against him, we were all trapped in the opponent's formation without the ability to fight back. Then It's not a battle at all, it's a one-sided massacre..." Until now, Wei An still has lingering fears when he recalls it.

On this point, Wei An really didn't lie.Because of the addition of the variable Mullin in the Vietnamese army, the imbalance in the situation has turned into a one-sided situation.Mu Lin turned into Captain Mu, trapped tens of thousands of Far Eastern troops with formations, and carried out a large-scale massacre.This massacre frightened Wei An, and also chilled the hearts of the expeditionary army.

However, since Wei An's image of being decadent and lacking in fighting spirit has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so now his patient words, City Lord Jiang, did not listen to him.

"Okay, General Wei. You just arrived last night, so you must have not had a good rest. Why don't you recharge your batteries before the Vietnamese army arrives!" City Lord Jiang smiled kindly, and patted Wei An as if encouraging his younger generation shoulder, signaling him not to be so nervous.

Although City Lord Jiang's position as City Lord is a civilian job, he has far more war experience than Wei An.When General Sima Lie was alive back then, he also witnessed General Sima Lie's demeanor many times and followed him to drive away the Vietnamese army.In his mind, Wei An is not worthy to lift the shoes of General Sima Lie.

Wei An didn't know if City Lord Jiang had listened to his own words, so he could only emphasize repeatedly: "The chanter of the Yue Army is probably close to the Immortal Formation Master! Before we come, let's make preparations..." Wei An didn't directly say what the specific preparations were.But he and City Lord Jiang both understand that this preparation refers to retreat...

Lose without a fight?City Lord Jiang gave him a lukewarm look, feeling contemptuous in his heart.

"General Wei, you should go and have a good rest first!" City Lord Jiang said again, and then signaled with his eyes to the soldiers next to him to send Wei An down the city wall.

Wei An opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't say it.

Seeing him turning and leaving, City Lord Jiang's face darkened.General Sima Lie, do you know that the Far East Army you brought out will be destroyed by the treacherous men?

When City Lord Jiang ordered the guarding soldiers and the Far East Army to actively prepare for the defense of the city, the Vietnamese army led by Mu Lin was also rushing towards the fourth city that Wu State was about to lose.

From afar, seeing the shadow of the city wall, Mu Lin couldn't help showing a touch of excitement in his eyes.Is it finally over?Mo Xingnian, that little girl is really capable!It actually trapped me in the formation for so long.However, even if she used formations to delay time, it would be meaningless after all.After he breaks out of the formation, he must personally kill this girl who got in the way!

With that in mind, Mu Lin raised his horsewhip and shouted loudly: "The city of Wu is just ahead! Food and grass are waiting for you! Fine wine is waiting for you! Follow me to destroy the city, and there will be wine and meat! I promise you freedom Snatch for three days!"

Mu Lin is worthy of being the master of Xingxiu Hall in Caesar Continent, and he is quite good at inspiring people's hearts.

Enter the city and snatch it freely for three days!That means that he can go into the city to burn, kill and loot at will, and the treasures he grabs don't need to be handed over, they are all his own!The big girl and the little daughter-in-law can also go to it if they want to... It's fun to think about it!
These words immediately cheered up the exhausted Vietnamese soldiers, staring at the shadowy city of Wu State ahead, and rushed forward with their eyes shining.

Seeing that the morale of the soldiers was boosted and the marching speed accelerated again, Mu Lin was very satisfied.

It was originally expected to arrive in the early morning of the third day, but according to this speed, it is entirely possible to arrive two hours earlier.also good!Arrived early, just in time to catch them off guard!Mu Lin was riding on the horse, staring at the city of Wu and secretly calculating, as if he was certain to win.

In the front, Mu Lin led the army to rush desperately, and Rong Yu and Fang He also led the people to rush desperately; behind, Wu Xiaowei led more than 1 Vietnamese troops in pursuit, and Mo Xingnian also led a hundred Far Eastern troops in pursuit .

People from all directions are on their way, and everyone is speeding up while gritting their teeth, fighting to see who can catch the time.

Mu Lin was fighting for time to attack the city, while Rong Yu and Fang He were fighting for time to spread rumors.At this time, Rong Yu, Fang He and others didn't know that General Qin Mingtai of Yue Kingdom had really been assassinated, so they thought that what they needed to spread was just a fake news to shake the opponent's morale.

Wu Xiaowei was rushing to catch up with Mu Lin, wanting to avenge General Qin Mingtai, while Mo Xingnian... Okay!She was rushing to catch up with the excitement.

In this marching competition, the strong and powerful Mullin's troops finally prevailed.He took the lead to rush to the fourth city of Wu State with his troops, and shouted majestically at the guarding soldiers of the city, advising them to surrender as soon as possible, so as not to waste time.

"I believe you have heard the news of the defeat of the Far Eastern Army. Even the famous Far Eastern Army has been defeated by us. You people should stop doing unnecessary struggles! Those who know the current affairs are brilliant! I hope you don't waste time. Open the city gates and surrender as soon as possible! I guarantee that those who surrender will not be killed! My patience is limited! If you haven’t opened the city gates before dawn, then don’t blame me for being rude!”

Compared with the general persuasion to capitulate, Mu Lin's remarks are considered very blunt.However, he has simple and rude capital, and has the ability to threaten the opponent.

Hearing Mu Lin's words, the guards of Wu State on the city wall all showed humiliation, and even City Lord Jiang's face was ugly.

Is this Vietnamese officer really here to persuade him to surrender?Actually making a fuss about the defeat of the Far East Army!If General Sima Lie was still there, how could they have captured three cities in a row and fought here...

City Lord Jiang clenched his fists, stood upright for a while, took a few deep breaths, then let go of his five fingers, and said very calmly: "The Vietnamese army has been traveling all night, and they are exhausted at this time! If they attack the city, they will lose !"

"The City Lord is right! They must be bluffing!"

"If they dare to come, we will let them stay forever!"

"That's right! We are not useless wretches who can be frightened by the Vietnamese army with a few words!"

……

Those who responded to City Lord Jiang's words were all city guards.However, the soldiers of the Far Eastern Army who were ordered to come to cooperate with the defense of the city kept their mouths shut and remained silent with complex expressions.

They also experienced the massacre that General Wei An said before. The strong man who read the Tao of the Vietnamese army left an indelible shadow on them.Although they didn't want to agree with General Wei An's words, they also believed that these people on their own side could not stop the pace of the Vietnamese army's conquest.

Mu Lin used his thoughts to send out his voice, and after ensuring that his words reached the ears of everyone in the city of Wu State, he ordered the soldiers of Yue State to rest where they were, while he himself began to fight in Wu State without stopping. The surrounding area of ​​the city was busy.

He didn't think that the opponent would surrender obediently at all, and shouting those words was just a smoke bomb to make the opponent think that he would wait until dawn before attacking the city.So, at this moment, what he has to do is to arrange formations around the city of Wu as soon as possible, and grab the most favorable opportunity to catch the opponent by surprise!
Originally, the formation master only needed to use any object as a medium to activate the aura of heaven and earth, and then use the power of thought to form the formation in the air.But since what is going to be conquered at this time is a city, it takes a huge amount of thought power to incorporate the entire city into the formation, and this kind of consumption is simply not something Mu Lin can bear.Therefore, if he wants to set up an formation to attack the city, he must rely on formation materials.

On the city wall, it wasn't that the soldiers of Wu State didn't see Mu Lin riding his horse back and forth, left and right, and they also reported the situation to City Lord Jiang.The answer given by City Lord Jiang was to stand still and continue to wait.

In fact, in such a situation, City Lord Jiang was quite helpless, he naturally knew that the other party was setting up an formation.But even if you know, so what?Can you send someone out to interfere with his formation?I'm afraid that as soon as people go out, they will be swallowed up by the [-] troops of the Yue Kingdom.Is there any strong Nian Dao on my side to contend with? What else can I do except wait?
Apparently, Mu Lin was determined that the other party would have nothing to do with him, so he set up his formation in such a grandiose way under the noses of the Wu soldiers.Of course, he did this not only to seize the time to attack the city, but also to put psychological pressure on the Wu soldiers.

Although he knew that it was a bit whimsical to ask the opponent to surrender, after all, Wei An, who had suffered a lot under his command, was also in the city.Maybe Wei An was so intimidated by himself that he really led people to open the city gate and surrender!

It can be seen from this that Mullin is very old and cunning, and all kinds of psychological warfare are also used to the extreme.

City Lord Jiang himself is also a Tier [-] spirit formation master, of course he can see that the formation under Mu Lin is extremely powerful.Seeing that the opponent was about to complete the formation, his heartbeat couldn't help but also quicken. At the same time, a drop of sweat dripped down his cheek, rolling into a bead of mud in the dust that fell on the ground with a "pop".
