946 Decisive Battle at Yongren City (1/2)
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.
