The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Seeing the blood on the soldier's body and hearing the soldier say "rescue" twice, Hua Wu Ke suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"I am Hua Wuke from the Hua Family Army. What happened in Yuecheng?"

Hua Wu Ke took out the token of the Hua family army as he spoke.

Seeing the flower boy on the token, the soldier hurriedly told him everything that happened in Yuecheng.

"The Western Kingdom suddenly launched a sneak attack yesterday. Wucheng has been breached by the Western Kingdom, and they are now attacking our Yuecheng!"

After hearing this, Hua Wu Ke had no time to wait there to find out the reason, so he led his team into the city.

The Lord of Yue City was still making emergency arrangements. When he learned that the Hua family army had arrived, he immediately had Hua Wuke invited into the meeting room.

There were only a few elders without fighting power discussing things in the meeting room. There was not even a single young and strong servant to be seen. They must have all been sent out to resist the foreign enemies.

Seeing this scene, Hua Wu Ke realized that Yuecheng was in imminent danger.

Although Yuecheng is not a border town, its location in the Ye Kingdom is very important.

This is the border between the north, west and south of the Night Kingdom.

If Yuecheng is lost, the Ye Kingdom will be like being cut in half, and information between the north and the south will no longer be communicated.

Beimo Pass and Anyang City could not possibly be unaware of the importance of Yuecheng, but along the way they had just walked, they had not seen any Xuantie Army or Hua Family Army.

"Have you sent any message to Beimoguan and Anyang City?"

Hua Wu Ke asked.

The City Lord of Yue sighed and replied:

"We received the news when Wucheng was breached. I knew I was no match for the Western Kingdom, so I immediately sent a message to Beimo Pass and Anyang City asking for help. But almost a day has passed, not only did we not receive any reinforcements, but even the messenger did not come back!"

It seems that people from the enemy country have infiltrated Beimo Pass and Anyang City, and the person who delivered the message is probably in great danger.

Hua Wu Ke had a vague guess in his mind that the civil unrest in Anyang City was probably related to this.

When Hua Wu Ke left Beimo Pass, he took away several specially trained carrier pigeons from the city lord's mansion.

At that time, she had made an agreement with Ye Buhuo, Hua Wujing and others that seeing this carrier pigeon meant that something was wrong and they had to be careful.

"Qingzhu, send a message to my brother and the prince!"

Qingzhu didn't tie any letter paper to the pigeon, but released it directly.

To outsiders, pigeons without letter paper look no different from ordinary domestic pigeons and will not attract attention.

Knowing Yuecheng's current situation, Hua Wu Ke offered to join the war without any hesitation.

The Lord of Yue City also knew that the current situation was not the time for him to be polite, so he immediately showed Hua Wu Ke the deployment map of Yue City.

While showing the deployment map to Hua Wuke, City Lord Yue explained:

"To the south is Nanyang City, to the north is Beimo Pass, and to the east is the heartland of the Night Country. Now only the West Gate is exposed to the enemy. All attacks are directed at the West Gate."

Hua Wu Ke had read many military books when she had nothing to do, so this defense map looked effortless to her.

While memorizing the picture in his mind, Hua Wu Ke asked:

"How many soldiers are there in Yuecheng now?"

"There are also about 5,000 soldiers and 2,000 civilians in the city who volunteered to join the fight against the enemy."

Together with the 15,000 soldiers Hua Wu Ke brought from Anyang City, there were only 22,000 people in total.

And Yuecheng is now facing 50,000 enemies.

After getting a rough understanding of the situation in Yuecheng, Hua Wu Ke felt heavy-hearted.

But she didn't show it on her face, nodded calmly, and then called the leader of the team escorting the food.

"Commander Xue, Yuecheng is in danger now. Are you willing to lead your soldiers and join me in fighting the enemy and saving Yuecheng?"

Commander Xue knelt on one knee, clasped his hands together, and answered without hesitation:

"I am a soldier guarding the border. Now that the enemy is attacking, I will do my best to fight the enemy!"

After receiving an affirmative answer from Commander Xue, Hua Wu Ke temporarily placed the grain in the safest place in the Yuecheng City Lord's Mansion, and then arranged several soldiers to guard it.

Afterwards, Hua Wu Ke took Qing Zhu and the soldiers to the west gate.

In the distance, a "dong dong dong" sound echoed through the sky from the west city gate.

Then I saw some common people and soldiers in coarse linen clothes using large wooden beams to hold the city gate tightly. Even when they were almost blown away by the battering rams on the other side of the city gate, they held on desperately and did not move from their positions.

Seeing that the city gate showed signs of being knocked open, Hua Wu Ke ordered a team of soldiers to come forward to help guard the gate.

Then Hua Wu Ke led everyone to the top of the city wall.

Standing on the city wall, Hua Wu Ke had a panoramic view of the scene outside the city.

The crowd was full of soldiers from the Western Kingdom, about 50,000 people.

There were only 7,000 people from Yuecheng fighting here, and they had already shown signs of being defeated.

The soldiers from the Western Kingdom used ladders to attack the city walls.

Several enemies were already standing on the city wall, and then they were chopped down by the soldiers brought by Hua Wu Ke.

The soldiers have consciously joined the battle of Yuecheng, and Hua Wuke and Qingzhu are also clearing out the enemies climbing up the city walls.

While clearing out the enemies, Hua Wu Ke also kept an eye on the situation outside the city.

Seeing more and more enemies climbing up the city wall using ladders, Hua Wu Ke called the commander of Yuecheng.

"Commander Yue, is there any oil in the city that can be used for burning?"

Although he didn't know what Hua Wuke was going to do, Commander Yue immediately found fuel for her.

Hua Wu Ke poured the fuel from the top of the ladder. The oil flowed down the ladder and soon soaked the entire ladder.

Several enemies lost their grip and fell off the ladder.

Seeing this scene, Commander Yue couldn't help but get a little excited, thinking that the enemy would not be able to climb up if the ladders were full of oil.

But soon new people came up.

Commander Yue couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with Hua Wuke's method.

Ignoring Commander Yue's disappointed look, Hua Wu Ke just waited while clearing out the enemies.

When the ladder was filled with enemies again, Hua Wu Ke took out the fire starter.

When the fire starter was brought close to the oil-soaked ladder, a fire immediately ignited on the ladder.

The ladder was originally made of wood, and now with the addition of oil, the fireball quickly spread across the entire ladder like lightning.

The entire ladder looks like a fire dragon.

All the enemies on the ladder were swallowed by the fire dragon, and countless screams were heard in an instant.

Accompanied by screams, the enemies did not bother to hold on to the ladders due to the pain from the fire and all fell from the air.

As they fell, their burning clothes sent sparks into the huge crowd below, and screams immediately broke out among the crowd.

Seeing that this method worked, Commander Yue immediately ordered his men to fetch various oils and then pour them down from the ladder.

Soon, all the ladders were ablaze with fire, and the enemies could no longer climb up the ladders.
