I'm a villain, not a devil

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

On the city wall, the battle is still going on.

There were corpses everywhere, on weapons, on ruins, and on gun muzzles. The bodies of the Imperial Army and the Tree People were piled together in a mess and could not be separated.

Wu Xiao's plan finally played a huge role. He cut off the tree people's reinforcements and kept making correct decisions. The imperial army, which had far fewer tree people, finally gained the advantage as the defender in this siege.

After he announced the news and his plan, the morale of the entire imperial army was boosted. Even though their comrades kept falling around them, they still had the courage to fight the enemy to the death.

As long as the tree people don't have reinforcements, the Imperial Army is invincible!

Another wave of tree people's attack was repelled, and the adjutant stood beside Wu Xiao, panting, with an excited look on his face.

"Marshal, your plan worked. The Tree People's attack seemed to be one wave after another, but in three consecutive waves, the enemy retreated three minutes earlier each time - they couldn't stand such casualties."

Wu Xiao just nodded with a gloomy expression.

The adjutant choked, but the admiration in his eyes became more and more obvious.

As expected of the Marshal, even though he has gained the upper hand, he is still so cautious...

However, the annoyance in Wu Xiao's eyes flashed by without anyone noticing.

The tree man can’t possibly have only this much strength...and after the explosion on the Imperial Mountain, why has His Majesty been silent?

And, Sean, what about your big, epic plan?

His eyes grew darker.

Now, even if the tree people were defeated, it would only be another great victory in the history of the empire - for Wu Xiao, simply having his name remembered in the history books of the empire was not enough, far from enough.

I must make the world remember me...

Otherwise, the sacrifices of so many people, so many battles... would all be meaningless!

Just as Wu Xiao was silent, another adjutant ran over.

His expression was much more serious: "Marshal, the riots in the city are about to get out of control."

Wu Xiao frowned: "Where are the guards? They were not sent to the battlefield because they are responsible for this. If they can't do these things well, then kill them and let our people take over."

The adjutant looked a little embarrassed. "The guard team was originally under the control of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and had been cooperating with the Imperial Army. But for some reason, Her Royal Highness the Princess could not be found, so the Second Prince Bai Wen and Grand Duke Yuan Tie's men took over the guard team."

"The people are very excited, and the guards under the Second Prince are unwilling to expend too much strength... They seem to be hoarding their own forces - according to our information, they seem to want to rush up and join the battlefield at the end of the battle to defend the city."

Wu Xiao's eyes flickered, and he cursed angrily: "Stupid!"

The adjutant said in embarrassment: "Moreover, the people are constantly attacking the other city gates. For some reason, your Majesty's Silent Ones have begun to do nothing again. Now the imperial capital has become a mess."

Wu Xiao's brows were tightly furrowed, and suddenly, his expression changed again.

"You guys, lead three teams to the three city gates. We, the Imperial Army, will take over the blockade!"

Several adjutants' eyes flashed with shock, and they quickly advised: "Marshal, we have just gained a slight advantage. If we divert our manpower, the army of tree people will come again!"

"This is a military order." Wu Xiao said coldly.

"Yes Yes!"

Just as several adjutants were about to leave, Wu Xiao stopped them again.

"Come here, send a team of spies to do as I tell them." He whispered a few instructions.

The adjutants were nodding their heads at first, but then they showed expressions of extreme shock.

When he raised his head again, his eyes were full of horror when he looked at Wu Xiao.

"Your Excellency the Marshal..."

Wu Xiao just waved his hand and said, "Go ahead and do it. If you blame me later, I, Wu Xiao, will take all the responsibility."

"Yes!" After the adjutant left, Wu Xiao raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Your Majesty, you have to take action after all... Although Sean promised to put me on the list of accomplices, I should still do something, right?

Now, please create a stage for me to become famous...

The Death Blade in his hand suddenly appeared, and the black fire on it trembled with excitement and anticipation.

……

"Let us out! Let us out!"

"Yes, let's go!"

The south gate of the imperial capital was bustling with people.

Naturally, no one dared to go to the North Gate because it was attacked by the tree people. The East and West Gates were close and dangerous, so naturally, the South Gate became the place where people gathered.

The power of the empire was well-known throughout the continent, and even a beggar from sixty-six in a rich neighborhood would raise his chest with pride whenever it was discussed.

However, when the disaster really strikes, people making a living in the wasteland world immediately discover that their hearts are not what they once thought.

Especially their revered Emperor, who did nothing and even went around arresting people to build his crappy statue when disaster was imminent.

The awe in their hearts seemed to be rapidly dissipating... The simplest wishes of the wasteland people became their only goal at this moment.

live.

Only those who survive are qualified to respect the emperor, love the empire, or choose to surrender to save their lives.

Once one person did this, a thousand people immediately followed suit, then ten thousand, then a hundred thousand...

Countless people gathered at the city gate, trying to break out of the imperial capital that was about to fall.

However, when the terrible Silent Ones stopped trying to stop them, a well-equipped imperial army blocked their way.

"Anyone who leaves the imperial capital will be killed without mercy." The soldier standing at the front had a stern expression.

The Imperial Army has always been prestigious. Suddenly, the crowd became much quieter, and many people looked around with fear.

In the crowd, a group of people narrowed their eyes slightly. They hid behind the people around them and opened their mouths, ready to shout.

However, another group stole their lines.

Someone shouted, "The imperial capital is about to be destroyed. Why do you want us to die with you?"

One stone caused a thousand ripples, and suddenly, more people shouted.

"That's right! You never let us live a good life, and now you want us to be buried with you? No way!"

"Brothers and sisters, let's charge together! There are so many of us, can they really kill us all?!"

The power of the masses began to explode.

Amid constant instigation and scolding, the crowd was led to attack the imperial army.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Gunshots rang out, and the group of people rushing in the front immediately fell in a pool of blood.

The imperial army remained calm: "Anyone who attacks the city gate will be killed without mercy!"

However, the crowd became increasingly restless.

Someone even shouted, "Keep charging! Kill us all if you dare!"

"There's still a construction site! Brothers, go rescue those people who have been captured and forced to do hard labor. Let's charge together!"

The crowd split up, some rushed towards the construction site, and some rushed towards the imperial army.

The chaos has begun.
