Today, the hundreds of thousands of troops include the original Long family army, the new soldiers she recruited in recent years, or the beggars and disaster victims she rescued. These people are loyal and reliable, only because Wen Zhiyue saved them in their most difficult times and allowed them to live like human beings with dignity.

"Girl, if we keep attacking, we won't be able to stop. Why don't you wait a little while until the prince arrives before attacking the city?" Xuemei reminded her. She felt really aggrieved. Before leaving, the prince had repeatedly warned her not to act rashly and to wait for his reinforcements to arrive before attacking the city. Judging from the girl's attitude, she was determined to launch a forceful attack.

"War is all about timing. If you miss the chance, even God won't help you." Wen Zhiyue said and stepped forward, "The shield camp guards the archers, archers get ready."

The tens of thousands of archers behind them came running from behind, moving forward step by step under the protection of their shields.

The forward range is one hundred meters, and the forward range is fifty meters.

"Ready - shoot." At Wen Zhiyue's command, tens of thousands of arrows shot towards the city.

"Upward shooting, when did Tianyu train tens of thousands of soldiers who could shoot upward?" The second prince exclaimed, he could not wait any longer, he wanted to inform his father of the current situation.

Seeing the Second Prince leaving in a hurry, many soldiers on the city looked towards the city defense department in confusion.

The city guard cursed in his heart, saying that Yue Huan was usually bullying the weak and would just run away when he encountered a strong enemy. He was afraid that Yue Huan was going to die.

Although he had his opinion on the royal children, he still loyally guarded the city. He roared, "What are you looking at? Why don't you meet the enemy?"

Many soldiers began to block the arrows shot at the city.

After the first wave of arrows were shot, before the soldiers on the city wall could recover from the shock, the second wave of flaming arrows came from below the city wall, and the Yuehuan soldiers shouted and wailed.

"Ling Yi, prepare to throw stones." At Wen Zhiyue's order, Ling Yi drove his horse forward and commanded the catapult to throw stones at the city. After throwing stones several times, he launched another round of ladder attacks. The Tianyu soldiers held shields, climbed the ladders, and charged towards the city wall.

At the city gate, the sound of banging the gates could be heard one after another.

In the palace, Emperor Huan was discussing the way of cultivating immortality and longevity with the Taoist priest in the back hall. The second prince rushed in regardless and said, "Father, the Tianyu army is at the gate of the city and will soon attack the palace."

Emperor Huan's eyes went dark, and the eunuch helped him calm down. "What did you say? Didn't hundreds of thousands of troops go to the northern border of Tianyu? How come they are at the gates of the city again?"

“Father, Yuwen Jing did not listen to my advice. Not only did he refuse to enter the northern border, he also drove me back. I don’t know where hundreds of thousands of troops are now. Today, Yu’s soldiers are outside the city. If you don’t send troops to rescue, I’m afraid they will attack this palace.” The second prince cast a fearful look at Emperor Huan.

"The city has been surrounded by Tianyu soldiers. Where can we find reinforcements now? Even if we want to find them, we have to get out." Emperor Huan was helped up by the eunuch, his old face was a little pale.

"Oral order, the commander of the Imperial Guards, immediately lead the troops to support the City Defense Department."

"Yes, I will go right away." The second prince left in a hurry, and the eunuch beside him reminded him softly: "Your Majesty has sent the imperial guards out, who will defend the palace?"

"If Tianyu's soldiers enter the city, can this palace still be saved?" Emperor Huan glanced at the eunuch beside him.

"I always feel like I've been cheated. How could Yue Huan's army of hundreds of thousands be unable to defeat the hundreds of thousands of defenders in the northern border of Tianyu? Did Lan Qingyun lie, or is Lan Qingyun a spy for Tianyu?" Emperor Huan looked at the eunuch and asked.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince has repeatedly advised Your Majesty to make peace with Tianyu, but Your Majesty believed Lan Qingyun. Didn't Lan Qingyun say that he could mobilize the Long family army? The Wuyin Mountain is not far from here. Why not let Lan Qingyun mobilize troops to rescue? This can also prove whether what he said is true." The eunuch gave Emperor Huan an unreasonable plan.

A group of ministers outside the palace came to ask to see His Majesty. Emperor Huan had a headache. "They are all useless people. They will only cause trouble to me. Let them all go back. I will summon them if there is anything."

After the eunuch went outside the palace to deliver the message, the loyal ministers refused to leave and knelt down to demand to see the emperor. Some ministers, seeing that the situation was not going well, quickly returned home, packed up their belongings and took their wives and children with them to prepare to escape when the war broke out.

The deafening sound of banging on the door became louder and louder, and the people in the city fled everywhere. Lan Qingyun, wearing a black robe, was waiting at the city gate for an opportunity to escape.

"Girl, if we continue attacking like this, I'm afraid more soldiers will die." Xuemei reminded Wen Zhiyue beside her. She only hoped that the prince would come soon, otherwise the battle would be over.

"Xuemei, when we are attacking the city, you say these things, what is your intention?" Wen Zhiyue turned her head and glared at Xuemei. Xuemei lowered her head, but she was very sad in her heart. Ye Qi was really a traitor. If Ye Qi had not conveyed the prince's words, she would have wanted to open the city gates, rush straight to the palace to kill Yuwen Jing, and avenge the girl's poison.

"Ling Yi, add more people at the city gate and enter the city before dark." Wen Zhiyue's cold eyes were full of murderous intent, which was captivating.

Outside the city, Tianyu's soldiers were constantly climbing up the city walls from the ladders, and inside the city, the sound of Yuehuan's soldiers and Tianyu's soldiers fighting with swords could be heard.

There were cries of pain from Shi Zhen who had fallen down from the city walls, and bodies of people who had been killed on the city walls were rolling down.

When Ye Nanxuan arrived with reinforcements, what he saw was a thrilling battle to capture the city. The walls were covered with blood like a river and corpses were piled up like a mountain at the foot of the walls.

The people on the city wall thought that the troops coming from afar were their reinforcements, but they turned out to be the enemy soldiers who had sent them away earlier.

Ye Nanxuan ignored everything else and ordered the soldiers to join the battle. He searched for Wen Zhiyue's figure under the city.

When he saw the thin figure beside the city gate, he rode his horse forward, dismounted and pulled Wen Zhiyue into his arms.

"Your Highness, we are attacking the city. If you have anything to say, let's talk inside." After saying that, he pushed Ye Nanxuan away and continued to shout slogans for the soldiers.

With the reinforcements brought by Ye Nanxuan, even the most difficult city could be breached. The city gates were wide open, and the Tianyu soldiers rushed into the city like a flood.

Ye Nanxuan and Wen Zhiyue led the soldiers all the way to the palace. The remaining guards in the palace were not to be feared, and they arrived at Emperor Huan's bedroom in a quarter of an hour.

"Tianyu is full of talented people, Yue Huan is no match for them. But there is one thing I don't understand, I hope you two can explain it to me." Emperor Huan looked at Ye Nanxuan and Wen Zhiyue in front of him, his eyes calm and composed.

"No matter what, you are the ruler of a country. If there is anything unclear, just ask." Wen Zhiyue replied calmly.

"Tianyu has only hundreds of thousands of troops defending the northern border. I wonder where the soldiers attacking the city today came from." Emperor Huan expressed his doubts.

"The hundreds of thousands of troops today are the Long family army, and the reinforcements behind are Tianyu's soldiers."

As soon as Wen Zhiyue's words came out, Emperor Huan trembled, "Lan Qingyun hurt me, Lan Qingyun hurt me, I am guilty."

Watching Emperor Huan crying, Wen Zhiyue smiled contemptuously, "No wonder Yue Huan was destroyed so quickly. Even a discarded child from Xizhu can be treated as a guest of honor. How pathetic."
