Chapter 946 – Decisive Battle at Yongren City

One could not say that the Yanhuang Alliance’s threat was of no use.

After learning that 200 thousand Dali Alliance Army troops were attacking Dongchuan Prefecture, Great Xia moved 30 thousand Tiger Leopard Cavalry led by Fenwei General Ma Chao to go up north to Dongchuan Prefecture to assist Baiqi.

80% of the Guards Legion Corps remained in Shanhai City, threatening the entire wilderness.

When they received the news, Di Chen, Wang Meng, and the like heaved a collective sigh of relief.

In Di Chen’s eyes, if Great Xia did not send anyone to assist Baiqi, there really would be something going on. Great Xia arranging the Guards Legion Corps to help Baiqi showed that they were really caught off guard.

“A huge show is going to be played!”

Within the Handan City reading room, Di Chen was really excited, his eyes glowing. He was already thinking about using the Battle of Yongren City as a catalyst to crush Great Xia.

When Juedai Fenghua saw that, she smiled.

This whole plan was crafted by her.

When a woman acted vicious, they were absolutely terrifying.

Wang Meng was not worried. In his eyes, 20 thousand Guards Legion Corps troops were not enough to turn this all around.

At night, the army that battled for an entire day was resting in the wilderness.

In just a day, 10 thousand innocent civilians died under the blades of the Alliance Army. Numerous shops were pillaged while treasuries and even mansions were not left alone.

With the satisfaction of the pillaging, the army celebrated in the camp. This was a great achievement, so it was worth the celebrations.

Within the central tent, Wang Meng and the others had gathered once more.

As a result of the victory during the day, Little Mutuo and the others had unconcealable delight on their faces.

Especially Little Mutuo, who was just a small Lord. He had never seen such a huge stage. During the pillaging in the morning, the soldiers that belonged to Yun City took the most.

It was also them that entered the mansions.

Even members of Xiao Alliance were not so bold, and they looked at the Yun City Army with disgust. They dissed them and said, “No wonder they can only remain in Dali like tortoises. People like them are not even good enough to carry shoes for the Xia army.”

These words might sound vicious, but it caused the surrounding players to laugh out loud.

“The kind of the Lord determines the kind of the troops.”

‘Haha~’

They laughed once more.

Adventure gamemode players were bold and said whatever they wanted to. Although they were members of Xiao Alliance, they really respected Lords like Qiyue Wuyi.

Of course, respect was respect, but they still had to do what they had to do.

Seeing all of them settle down, Wang Meng asked them all to keep quiet, “You all have heard? Great Xia has already sent 30 thousand Tiger Leopard Cavalry to teleport to Consonance City. They will catch up soon.”

Xiao Nianying and the others nodded; their expression turned from causal to solemn.

They knew that although the Great Xia Guards Legion Corps was in Consonance City, they were the famous Tiger Leopard Cavalry. They were really quick and could catch up to them in no time.

They had very little time left.

Seeing this, Wang Meng did not beat around the bush and said directly, “Since all of you understand what it means, I will not say much. To save time, we will not enter cities tomorrow and try to reach Yongren City in two days.”

Xiao Nianying and the others nodded and agreed with Wang Meng’s arrangements, “Do not worry general, we know what to do.” Although pillaging was fun, they all had foresight and knew that taking down Yongren City was the main mission.

If not, everything would be for nothing.

Only Little Mutuo was a little unhappy, but no one bothered about him.

Wang Meng looked at the commander of the Dali Imperial Court guards troops and said, “General, please lead your forces as the vanguard to surround Yongren City in advance. It is best if we can take it down before the Great Xia Guards Legion Corps arrives.”

“Yes!”

That guards commander was really cool. He cupped his fists and did not say anything after that. As someone who came from the imperial city, he hated military personnel killing civilians, so he naturally did not have a good impression of Wang Meng and the others.

If it were not because the king ordered him to follow them, he would have acted up.

As a result, Wang Meng selected him to be the vanguard.

With the matter settled, all of them went their separate ways.

The next morning, the army sped up. They galloped on the official path and went around the cities to head directly toward Yongren City. On the night of the 5th day, the vanguard forces had arrived before Yongren City.

The Battle of Yongren City was about to begin.

10th month, 6th day, Yongren City.

As a border city, Yongren City had faced its fair share of calamity. Till date, there were many scars from the previous battle.

On the city wall, the Dragon Legion Corps flags were waving in the wind. 30 thousand troops spread out over four sides. Their armor was ice cold as they laid in wait.

It was another spectacular scene outside the city wall.

Early in the morning, apart from the 50 thousand vanguard forces that arrived early, there were many more iron armored soldiers who arrived through the official paths.

As there were too many of them, the paths were filled with advancing troops; they looked like a black giant dragon.

Amongst the proper army, there were player forces in many different colors. The equipment of adventure gamemode players was selected by themselves, so they did not wear the standard uniform of the army.

Looking out, they were like a bunch of flowers.

In terms of military aura, the player forces naturally could not compare to the army.

As time went on, more and more troops gathered outside Yongren City. First, they gathered in the south outskirts, and they quickly filled up even the south.

Seeing that, they started to move toward the other three sides.

At 11 AM, soldiers stood on all four sides.

Looking out, all four directions were closely packed with troops. They had spears and blades in their hands. The waving flag and the shining armor gave one an invisible pressure.

The 200 thousand Alliance Army looked like the agents of the devil that wanted to swallow up Yongren City.

As they had just arrived, the camp outside of the city was bustling and extremely noisy like a market.

South outskirts, middle troop tent.

After settling down their forces, Wang Meng gathered up everyone once more to have a last meeting.

“Weird, why didn’t Baiqi leave?”

The moment he sat down, Little Mutuo voiced his doubts. If he was the one, he would have left long ago. Little Mutuo asked, “Is there something fishy going on, or maybe that Baiqi has sneaked away?”

When Xiao Nianying heard that, they were shocked, and they all looked toward Wang Meng.

Wang Meng was really calm and smiled, “Baiqi is definitely inside.”

“Why?” Little Mutuo continued to ask.

Wang Meng explained, “Yongren City is not only their frontline command center, but it is also their logistical base, so there is a large amount of grain there. If he abandons the city, the Dragon Legion Corps in the Shu Lands would have to starve.”

“With his arrogance, he definitely would not abandon the city.”

Little Mutuo and the others were enlightened, and the worry in their hearts disappeared once more. This battle concerned too much, and although these core people seemed really glamorous, they were also under a lot of pressure.

Seeing that, Wang Meng suddenly smiled and said, “Let’s not sit here; let’s go out and take a look!” As he said that, he stood up and led the way outside.

Wang Meng was doing that to reduce the pressure.

To make it easier for them to command the troops, the middle troop tent was set on a small hill. Looking down from the top, one could see the camp really clearly.

Tens of thousands of tents were placed on the land, and they went up and down based on the geography. They were lined up orderly. Looking at such a scene, all of them could not help but feel pride.

Wang Meng pointed at the troops and smiled, “With such an army, what are we worried about?”

“That’s right; the one that should be worried is Baiqi!”

Little Mutuo agreed, and a look of happiness flashed across his face.

When Xiao Nianying saw this, despise appeared in his eyes. As a person from an aristocratic family, he looked down on people like Little Mutuo.

Even toward Ouyang Shuo, Xiao Nianying did not have much respect, and he even often said to people, “He’s just lucky that he’s able to step over our heads.”

Just as he was deep in thought, the voice of the Dali Imperial Court guards commander entered his ears, “Guys, look. What’s that thing sticking out of the city wall?”

All of them looked toward where he was pointing to. Every two meters, there was a huge protruding object. However, this thing was covered, and none of them knew what it was.

Since it was covered, how would they know? Little Mutuo acted like it was nothing, “Scoff, who cares; it’s just useless!”

Although he said that, the unease and nervousness in his voice was evident.

Baiqi was a God General, so why would he make such a useless act? It was definitely a secret weapon.

Little Mutuo roughly guessed what it could be. However, due to the ostrich mentality, he did not think deeply into it.

Xiao Nianying probably had some guesses, but he simply did not say it out.

Only the guards commander did not know what it was. He looked at Wang Meng, hoping for an answer.

The atmosphere instantly became awkward.

“Cough.” Wang Meng’s face appeared a little embarrassed. He broke the depressed atmosphere and said, “Who cares what it is? Our troops have gathered; the arrow has been pulled, and it has to be fired. War is based on strength, and we outnumber them, so there’s nothing that they can do.”

“General is right.”

Little Mutuo and Xiao Nianying agreed, but their anxiousness was being released once more. Only the guards commander’s brows were still locked tight, as no one could answer his doubts.
