Chapter 1509: Decisive Battle (1)
In the face of countless traps, the alliance of the four countries directly used the magical beasts of their own soldiers, thus avoiding the loss of human forces, but also made the hearts of those soldiers writhe in pain.
Military orders were like mountains. They could only watch their own magical beasts fall into the traps and painfully wail.
In the end, the army of the four-nation alliance finally reached The Rising Sun City.
Above the walls of The Rising Sun City, hundreds of artillery were in order, and one could also clearly see the dozens of siege weapons on top of the walls.
When Jiang Wan and others saw those siege weapons, their faces immediately grew dark.
Even idiots would know that those siege weapons were the missing batch from the Lan Yue Dynasty.
This time, a decisive battle was about to begin.
Shen Yanxiao stood on the wall and looked at the dense army outside the city.
For more than a month of consuming the enemy's forces, she used eleven of her cities in exchange for more than one million soldiers and more than 800 siege weapons of the four countries.
Today, the four-nation alliance that had finally reached The Rising Sun City had only half of its strength.
Qi Xia and the others, dressed in light armour, stood beside Shen Yanxiao, and behind them were the mercenaries of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps.
"Finally, I have waited for this day." Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath and looked at the gray sky of the Barren Land.
"Victory is to live, defeat is to die. We vow to exist or perish together with The Rising Sun City!"
Within the city walls of The Rising Sun City, the soldiers and demons who were all ready and fully equipped quietly listened to Shen Yanxiao's declaration. This was a life-and-death battle.
"You call me County Lord, lord of the Barren Land, but today I want to tell you that this Barren Land does not belong to me, Shen Yanxiao. Every human being present here, and every demon has personally joined the creation of this land. It belongs to us all! Today, we are about to face the armored horses of the four-nation alliance. Outside the city, there are millions of soldiers waiting for us. We don't have any advantage in terms of quantity, but in faith, we will not lose to anyone! This land belongs to us, and we will defend it by ourselves! We will drive all invaders out of the Barren Land! I vow that as long as I am alive, I will not leave here half a step!" Shen Yanxiao vowed loudly that she would not retreat. As long as The Rising Sun City existed, she would live. If The Rising Sun City were destroyed, she would die here.
If the armored horses of the four-nation alliance wanted to enter The Rising Sun City, they could only step on her dead body first!
"We are willing to exist or perish together with The Rising Sun City!" Sky-splitting roars reverberated over The Rising Sun City. Each and everyone of them was determined to die fighting for their city.
This place was their land; they would never allow the four countries to arbitrarily trample their feet here!
Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath and loudly said, "Fu Tu, Yao Ji, Jia Lan, Jia He, Tian Qiu, Zhong Ling, Qiao Chu, all of you will lead all the demons on standby. Once the gunfire sounds, you will rush into the army camp of the four countries through the underground passage. I want you to take them by surprise!"
"We accept the order!" The seven higher demons kneeled on one knee with their right hand clenched into fist against their chest.
"Qi Xia, Yan Yu, Yang Xi, Nazhi, Xiaowei, after the artillery attack, summon your Mythological Beasts and attack the enemy ranks with me."
"We accept the order!"
"All members of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps, summon all your magical beasts and be the vanguard army. Lead the people of the city and kill the enemy with us!"
"We accept the order!"
Shen Yanxiao turned around and faced the mighty army of millions outside the city walls. She raised one of her hands and decisively ordered:
"All artillery and siege weapons, immediately launch an attack!"
