946 Decisive Battle at Yongren City (2/2)

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.
