Without any warning or preparation, Xiao Tianyao suddenly issued an order to attack the city, not to mention the soldiers defending the city, even the general was at a loss.

“Why?” Why didn’t you attack the city early, didn’t attack the city later, and attacked the city at this time? Was there any particular reason?

Of course, there was!

The Jinwuwei Army quickly responded: “Attack! The court’s reinforcements have been intercepted, and no reinforcements will arrive in the capital within ten days. Everyone rushes up, breaks the city, and enters in order to return Wangye’s innocence!”

“To return Wangye’s innocence, attack the city!” The Jinwuwei Army shouted, this was shouted for himself, and also for the soldiers on the city wall.

The soldiers guarding the city have the confidence to stick to the city gate because they know that they only need to wait a day or two before many reinforcements will arrive. No matter how strong the Jinwuwei Army was, they will not be afraid.

But now?

A signal flare told the soldiers defending the city that the reinforcements they were waiting for would not come.

The fierce Jinwuwei Army told the soldiers defending the city that they should not wait for reinforcements to come.

“General, is this true?” When the head of the thousand households and the head of the hundred guards heard what Jinwuwei Army said, their first reaction was not to believe it. They rushed to ask the general who guarded the city, but the general who defended the city himself have no idea.

“Can you believe the words of the Jinwuwei Army?” This kind of thing can’t be said as nonsense, whether you know it or not. Once you say it, it will shake the morale of the army.

“But there are only tens of thousands of people, and the Jinwuwei Army has more than 240,000 people. Where are the others?” Everyone was not an idiot. Seeing the number of the Jinwuwei Army, one can guess where the others have gone.

“They are going to stop the reinforcements, and our reinforcements will not come!” A young head of a thousand households closed his eyes and said what everyone knew but didn’t say.

“Without reinforcements, what are we going to do?”

“How long can we survive without reinforcements?”

“If reinforcements don’t come, can we hold the city gate?”

“Without reinforcements, what’s the use of defending for a day or two? In the end, it’s all about letting the Jinwuwei Army break into the city. Instead of making a fearless sacrifice, it’s better…”

“Okay!” The general guarding the city interrupted sharply when he saw that the people were talking more and more unseemly: “It doesn’t matter whether or when the reinforcements will arrive, what you have to do now is to secure your position and guard the city gate. Let Xiao Wangye send his troops into the city.”

“But…” What should we use to fight the Jinwuwei Army?

Needless to say, the general guarding the city knew what they were going to say, and interrupted again, “No but! Remember, Jinwuwei Army is an eastern country’s citizen, but although he grew up on the same land as you, they are your enemies now.”

The words of the general guarding the city were very clever. They not only pointed out the opposing relationship between the two sides but also told everyone without any trace that no matter how powerful the Jinwuwei Army was, they were the same as everyone. The gap between them will not be big.

“What the general said is that the Jinwuwei Army is just like us. They are strong and we are not weak.” Sure enough, the words of the general defending the city immediately resonated with all the soldiers. Like chicken blood.

“Okay, everyone, concentrate on the battle. Don’t let the Jinwuwei Army break through the defense line.” The general defending the city secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the soldiers had regained their fighting spirit.

But just as he took this breath, there was a deafening sound from below.

*Boom boom boom* The huge siege log was raised by dozens of the Jinwuwei Army and slammed into the city gate.

The soldiers on the city wall kept shooting arrows and throwing stones, but it had no effect at all. The arrows shot at them, and the stones thrown at them were like tofu. They shattered when they touched them.

“What’s going on?” Why they were not afraid of bows and stones?

“Black iron armors. They wear armors made of black iron ores.” Although the general guarding the city has never seen the black iron armor, he understood it just by seeing the Jinwuwei Army in front of him, while facing the arrow and stones.

“It was reported before that Xiao Wangye robbed the armor of the Black Armored Guard. Is it true?” The Emperor knew the news a long time ago and confirmed it, but the people below were not sure.

“It seems to be true now.” The general guarding the city hoped it was false, but the facts were in front of him, and he couldn’t allow him to tell nonsense.

“The Jinwuwei Army has black iron armor, how can we fight them?” It was not that the lieutenant was pessimistic, but it was the fact.

In the beginning, the Jinwuwei Army had no power to defend against the Black Armored Guard. If Xiao Tianyao hadn’t captured the eldest prince, it would be hard to say who would win or lose in that battle.

It was just, the Jinwuwei Army has Xiao Tianyao, a super martial god. What do the little soldiers guarding the city have?

“Xiao Wangye doesn’t have many black iron armors, you just need to stop these dozen people.” The general guarding the city observed the demons for a while and found that only these dozen people rushed forward, so he understood.

It was just, even if there were only a dozen or so people, they were not easy to mess with. Swords can’t break through the armor. They can only watch helplessly as each other crashes into the city gate. If this continues, the city gate will be knocked open sooner or later.

“Use stones, the biggest stones. Don’t use bows and arrows anymore. Stones can’t break the black iron armor. You can hurt them with stones, as long as it hurts them, it’s fine.” The black iron armor can withstand swords, but can they withstand the attack of stones? How much damage can the black iron armor withstand?

Small stones won’t work, so use the biggest stones. He doesn’t believe that the people below can’t be killed.

“Yes.” The soldiers guarding the city immediately went to change the stones, but they were in the city, and even if they could find big stones, the number was very limited. They smashed them and injured two Jinwuwei soldiers wearing black iron armor. However, there were not many big stones in their hands.

“Go, go find the big stone again, and go to the palace to tell the emperor what’s going on here.” The general guarding the city saw that Prince Xiao ordered someone to carry the wounded away, and another group of people wearing black iron armor from outside came to attack the city. They knew that Xiao Tianyao was fighting a war of attrition, and the purpose was to consume their military needs.

It was also at this time that the general guarding the city understood why Prince Xiao didn’t care about giving them time to prepare. Because it was useless even if they make more preparations. As long as the Jinwuwei Army was wearing black iron armor, their preparations would be of no use.

The news was presented to the emperor for the first time. Facing Prince Xiao’s aggressive attack, the Emperor was speechless for a long time.

“He gave hope first and then shattered it severely. First blocked the reinforcements, and then cut off the way back. Well, well, he is worthy of being a person with royal blood, and he is ruthless.” Breaking the city was only a matter of time.

The Emperor clenched his hands into fists and looked fiercely in the direction of the city gate.

To defend the city gate and the throne, he can only use the last strength in his hands.
