empire wars

Chapter 179 Take Jingzhou
These [-] soldiers are all soldiers who have participated in many battles with him. Although their combat power is not as good as Qin Yuan's elite, they should not be underestimated.

Although Qin Yuan himself is powerful and has a wolf king in the innate realm, he is probably no match for an army of [-].

Even if it is exhausted, Qin Yuan can be exhausted to death. This is where King Nanjing's confidence lies.

"Kill them!"

King Nanjing pointed at Qin Yuan and shouted loudly.

As soon as the order was given, the surrounding soldiers rushed up frantically.

Afterwards, rows of archers shot arrows into the sky, especially the shadow wolf king's huge body, which was easy to be hit.

Even if the defense was extremely strong, the number of arrows was superior, and the Shadow Wolf King couldn't stand being hit all the time.

In addition, Qin Yuan also saw huge equipment, such as catapults, heavy crossbow carts, and even siege vehicles.

It seems that the King of Southern Jing seemed to have expected that Qin Yuan would enter the city of Jingzhou, and made every possible preparation, intending to kill Qin Yuan in one fell swoop.

Boom boom boom!
Swish swish!
Bang bang bang!
A series of heavy crossbow arrows, flying stones and giant trees were fired from the ground, heading towards Qin Yuan.

hoohoo!

The Shadow Wolf King trembled all over, and exploded with all his strength, knocking down all the flying objects around him.

Another sudden pounce, with a height of more than 20 meters and a length of more than 40 meters, like a giant, rushed into the Jingzhou army.

In just an instant, thousands of soldiers were knocked away, and a bloody path was immediately opened.

However, these Jingzhou legions are worthy of being the elite legions bestowed by the King of Southern Jing. Even though they suffered heavy losses, they did not back down in the slightest and continued to charge forward.

Although the strength of each soldier is very small, it is not enough to look at in front of the Shadow Wolf King, but the number of people is strong, and when the number reaches a certain level, there will be a qualitative change, and the fearsome original picture will be displayed. .

Especially the previous legion, although its combat power was not as strong as Qin Yuan's army, it was still a rare and elite army. It obeyed orders, carried out orders in an orderly manner, and exerted its might. Over time, it left a lasting impression on the Shadow Wolf King. One after another works.

In addition to the Shadow Wolf King, the one hundred Green Dragon Royal Forest Army accompanying Qin Yuan also received special care and were surrounded by tens of thousands of troops.

Bang bang bang!
At this time, Qin Yuan also made a move, not against the soldiers of the army, but towards the defensive circle of the City Lord's Mansion, crashing down.

Waves of innate power, accompanied by the majesty of the emperor, bombarded the defensive circle.

Click!

A crisp sound came out, and there was an imperceptible crack on the defensive circle.

Although it is very inconspicuous, even negligible, it affects the hearts of both parties.

King Nanjing and Xuanying looked at each other in disbelief.

This is the most powerful defensive circle handed down from the ancestors of the Xuanbing Sword Sect, with a total of 36 layers, and each layer can resist innate power.

However, in front of Qin Yuan, it was as vulnerable as glass.

"My lord, you and I will work together to mobilize the power of heaven and earth to maintain the magic circle, otherwise it will be broken by Qin Yuan."

Xuanying said to King Nanjing.

Although this defensive formation is in a state of normal operation, it only operates according to the formation, but it is not the strongest state.

If there are two innate warriors as the core strength to maintain the magic circle, the defense of the magic circle can be upgraded to a higher level.

Even, if there is spare power, it can also activate the counterattack formation in the formation to attack the enemy.

"it is good!"

King Nanjing didn't hesitate at all.

At this time, facing the incomparably powerful Qin Yuan, he had no other choice but to jointly defend.

Although what King Nanjing just said seemed quite arrogant, he even wanted to keep Qin Yuan.

However, only he himself knew that it would be good to block Qin Yuan. As for killing Qin Yuan, it was impossible.

Now the King of Southern Jing can only hope that with the lives of [-] Jingzhou soldiers, he can defeat or repel Qin Yuan, even if it consumes Qin Yuan's physical strength. At that time, once Qin Yuan's strength is exhausted, he will definitely retreat on his own , self-explanation is to solve the urgent need.

Buzz!

King Nanjing and Xuan Ying mobilized the power of heaven and earth and poured it into the magic circle. For a while, the crack disappeared.

In a blink of an eye, the light patterns on the defensive circle became more obvious, and the defensive power also increased significantly.

Qin Yuan punched it down with one punch after another, but it only made it tremble violently, but it couldn't cause substantial damage to it.

Now it seems that it can only look at both sides, whose power is more durable and can be consumed forever.

"It's useless. Although your strength is very strong, this magic circle was originally created to deal with someone as strong as you."

King Nanjing shouted at Qin Yuan who was outside the magic circle. "This place is only half a day away from Nanyang City. If you continue to stay here, when reinforcements arrive from the major families in Nanyang City, you will die. Also, Yuan Ao also sent people to come. You may be able to stop the siege of an innate strong man?"

"Ten?"

Qin Yuan sneered, "Come one to kill one, come two to kill one pair, even if they all come, I won't be afraid."

While speaking, Qin Yuan punched down again.

Within the formation, King Nanjing's face turned livid.

It was not because of Qin Yuan's words, but because of Qin Yuan's every punch, accompanied by powerful force, even he and Xuanying were affected a lot, and their bodies were under great pressure.

This also made King Nanjing feel deep fear in his heart.

Qin Yuan's strength has really reached the peak of the world.

Fortunately, King Nanjing had the foresight and spent countless costs to build a defensive array in the city lord's palace.

Otherwise, if you meet Qin Yuan face to face, I'm afraid his fate will be no different from that of Situ Lang and the others.

"A tortoise shell is just to let you live a little longer."

Qin Yuan was glowing with dazzling golden light, mobilizing the strength of his whole body, and delivered the strongest blow, clenched his fists, and fell towards the formation.

Rumble!
A terrifying force erupted and fell towards the City Lord's Mansion, and cracks appeared in the defensive circle again, extending across the entire circle from east to west.

Click.

A crack about several hundred meters long and two fingers wide appeared abruptly.

"quick!"

Xuanying shouted loudly, the crack was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, a black shadow quietly passed by and entered the magic circle.

what?
The King of Nanjing showed doubts on his face.

not good!

The faces of King Nanjing and Xuan Ying changed drastically.

An unspeakable force enveloped the two of them.

King Nanjing wanted to retreat, but found that his body pushed the control.

It was as if there were a pair of huge palms tightly imprisoning him, making it impossible to move or escape.

The next moment, Qin Yuan punched out again, mixed with fearful majesty of an emperor, and directly blasted at the two people in the magic circle.

Puff!

King Nanjing and Xuan Ying suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Qin Yuan, you can't kill me, otherwise the 30 troops in Jingzhou City will never die with you, and millions of people will be buried for you and me!"

A look of madness appeared on King Nanjing's face.

This is his last madness, and also his last hole card.

If Qin Yuan is really desperate, he has no choice but to die, and it is normal for him to do some crazy actions.

And this crazy move is the life of everyone in Jingzhou City.

"Are you threatening me?"

Qin Yuan broke the defensive circle, stood above the city lord's mansion, and looked down at the two people who were in a state of embarrassment.

"I'm just discussing with you, it's up to you whether you agree or not!"

King Nanjing said cruelly.

After so many years of operation, we have already cultivated a group of confidants.

Although there are some descendants of aristocratic families under his command, most of them are the King of Nanjing's own people, absolutely obeying orders, even if they are to die, they will not hesitate at all.

Even the soldiers under him, they will only obey the orders of King Nanjing.

Loyalty is extremely high, even if you die in battle, you will not surrender.

Unlike other princes, the temporary army soldiers are different.

Most of the soldiers enlisted in the army because of the name of King Nanjing.

Moreover, the treatment in the army is first-rate. Coupled with more than ten years of training, the loyalty of the army is only a little lower than that of dead soldiers.

But if the order to fight to the death is issued, I am afraid that everyone will fight until the last moment.

Bang bang bang!
kill kill kill!

Outside the City Lord's Mansion, the Shadow Wolf King and the Jingzhou Legion were fighting like a raging fire. Hundreds of soldiers died in battle at every moment.

There were even countless soldiers, armed with sharp weapons, heading towards the city lord's mansion.

kill kill kill!

Then, another unusual shout of killing rushed over, accompanied by the violent tremor of the ground.

This is the [-] elite led by Zhu Gemo, who broke through numerous defenses and finally entered the inner city.

Along the way, it was really a bloody road, all covered with corpses, and blood flowed like a river.

On the Jingzhou army side, more than [-] soldiers were killed.

However, although there were many people killed in battle, they still did not back down at all, and they still carried out the orders issued by their superiors.

There were even some common people who spontaneously formed a rebel army to block the army's progress.

The number of civilians increased, and the soldiers of the Jingzhou Army became more and more courageous as they fought without flinching.

It can be seen how high the prestige of King Nanjing is within the scope of Nanjiang Jingzhou.

Of course, there are reasons why King Nanjing is the orthodox prince of Liehan, and King Nanjing has ruled Nanjiang Jingzhou for decades, making the city prosperous and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and winning the hearts of the people. This is one of the important reasons.

"see it?"

The King of Nanjing laughed bitterly, "Once I die, millions of soldiers and civilians will surely be buried with me. At the last moment of the battle, you, Qin Yuan, will at most get an empty city, no, a dead city!"

Qin Yuan's expression froze. This was the first time he encountered such a situation.

Originally, he thought that only the people in his territory would love him and support his rule.

Unexpectedly, there is another person in the world, the King of Nanjing who is cast aside by the world.

No, the rejection of King Nanjing was only at the level of the aristocratic family. His reputation among the people was quite good.

It's just that the aristocratic family dominates the power of public opinion in the entire land of China.

In the former, King Nanjing became a tyrant.

In the latter, Qin Yuan also stepped into the footsteps of King Nanjing and became the so-called Tyrant Qin.

The so-called wise master is nothing more than a mouthful of the family.

At this moment, Qin Yuan looked at King Nanjing and suddenly felt a little sympathy.

But soon, he was abandoned by Qin Yuan.

"My lord, I think it will be useful to keep this person."

Guo Jia said suddenly.

The black shadow just now was Guo Jia.

Imprisoning King Nanjing and Xuan Ying so that they could not control the magic circle was also done by Guo Jia.

"Since Fengxiao begged for mercy, I will spare your life."

Qin Yuan pretended to think for a while, and said. "However, of the two of you, only one can survive."

There was a cold light in Qin Yuan's eyes.

These two people once regarded themselves as mortal enemies and even took action against Qin Yuan.

Now, if the King of Nanjing hadn't won the hearts of the soldiers and people of Jingzhou, he might not be of any use.

Puff!

As soon as Qin Yuan finished speaking, King Nanjing suddenly pulled out his sword and pierced Xuan Ying's heart with his incredible eyes. He stabbed him several times until Xuan Ying completely cut off his energy and then stopped. He dropped his hand and dropped the sword in his hand.

"I can surrender and let the entire Jingzhou City, and even the entire Nanjiang Jingzhou army and people, submit to your rule. And I only ask for one thing, that is, you make an oath to let me live, you or yours Subordinates, you are not allowed to attack me directly or indirectly, and let me retreat alone. At the same time, I will no longer be your enemy, let alone participate in worldly affairs."

King Nanjing said slowly, and at the same time, his expression gradually relaxed, but the light in his eyes was gradually disappearing.

As soon as he finished speaking, it seemed that King Nanjing had exhausted all his strength, and he seemed to have aged ten years.

"Okay, I promise to spare your life."

Qin Yuan said solemnly.

"With your words, then I can rest assured."

King Nanjing smiled miserably and slowly stood up from the ground. "By the order of this king, all armies must stop and the people must return to their homes and are not allowed to leave at will!"

The voice of the King of Southern Jing, like a Hong Zhong, instantly spread throughout Jingzhou City.

As for Qin Yuan's promise, King Nanjing naturally did not have to worry about Qin Yuan going back on his word.

As the saying goes, a gentleman can't chase after a word.

What's more, Qin Yuan is still the majestic king of Qin, the lord of the three states, and the powerful princes.

What he said was naturally a promise.

If it is violated, Qin Yuan's prestige will be severely hit.

The subordinates and the army under him would even question Qin Yuan's promise, which would affect the morale of the army and the people.

This is a big taboo for a prince.

"My lord, are you alright!"

Not long after, Zhuge Mo led the army to the City Lord's Mansion.

"It's okay, arrange people and take over Jingzhou City."

Qin Yuan said to Zhuge Mo.

With the cooperation of King Nanjing, the troops in the city stopped resisting, allowing Qin Yuan's side to take over the entire Jingzhou City very smoothly.

Then, King Nanjing issued separate orders, notifying the armies of several important cities such as Nanjiang City to surrender to Qin Yuan's army in Kaicheng.
