I started as an exile, and I relied on space to support my family of loyal heroes.

The God's Army stopped one hundred meters away from the city gate.

The God's Army riding on horseback raised their crossbows and aimed at the city gate tower.

At this distance, the defenders on the city gate tower were well within their shooting range.

It would be difficult for the defenders to hit the Heavenly God Army with their bows and arrows.

The guards on the city gate tower were so frightened by the sharp and dazzling crossbow arrows that they could not hold the bows and arrows steadily.

After being hungry for so many days, he had no strength left, and it was considered good enough that the bow and arrow in his hand could shoot thirty meters.

The enemy was so far away from the city gate that they couldn't shoot at them at all.

But the enemy's dazzling crossbow arrows could obviously hit them.

The defenders panicked, their hearts were in their throats, and they muttered,

"What should I do? What should I do? Why hasn't General Shi come yet?"

"Hurry up, hurry up again!!"

"It's too late!"

"Look, isn't that General Cong?"

"...It seems so."

"..."

The defenders felt mixed emotions when they saw General Cong riding on horseback and standing in front of the crossbowmen.

Many of them had fought with General Cong.

General Cong was the best general they had ever met. Every piece of meat he had would be thrown into the pot to make soup, and the whole army camp would drink it together.

The times they spent following General Cong were their happiest days.

They never thought that one day they would become enemies with General Cong.

Cong Chongqiu looked back at Xiao Yunhao in the car, then turned around and rode his horse towards the city gate.

The guards on the city gate tower couldn't help but feel their eyes turn red as they looked at General Cong walking towards them.

They knew that General Cong would never attack them casually.

Cong Chongqiu stopped his horse ten meters away from the city gate and looked up at the guards on the gate tower.

"Open the city gates! Surrender and lay down your weapons and you will not be killed!"

"Rely on Yongchang State, King Zhenbei, and I will ensure that you have enough food and clothing, and a place to rely on when you are old!!"

Cong Chongqiu's deep voice reached the ears of all the defenders on the city gate tower.

If others said this, they would not believe it, but the person who said this was General Cong, so it was hard for them not to believe it.

Everyone who has fought with General Cong knows that General Cong would not kill captured prisoners of war as long as they had no bad intentions.

The prisoners captured by General Cong were usually waiting for the enemy to offer benefits in exchange for them. During this period, General Cong would not let the prisoners starve.

The defenders looked at each other, their eyes became vague, and some did not dare to look at each other, fearing that the other party could see the excitement in their eyes.

God knows how tempting it is for them to have enough food and clothing at this moment.

They couldn't remember how long it had been since they had eaten, they only knew that they had stuffed everything they could into their mouths.

The several large mountains surrounding Huanlian City have all been eaten bare by people.

Now, being able to dig up tree roots and chew on them is considered a great thing.

Many soldiers in the military camp suffocated to death because they ate too much tree bark. That death was really painful.

At this time, a long-faced garrison soldier who particularly admired Cong Chongqiu was determined and shouted,

"I'm almost starving to death. I don't care. I want to follow General Cong and have enough food and warm clothes. General Cong never deceives his soldiers!"

"Look, General Shi hasn't arrived yet. He might have already abandoned us and run away."

"What's the point of us fighting here to the death? We are outnumbered."

"A man of insight is a wise man. I only know that my mother is still waiting for me to return."

The long-faced guard spoke in a hoarse voice, threw down the bow and arrow in his hand, and strode down to the city gate tower.

The other defenders were stunned for a moment, glanced at each other, and unconsciously walked towards the stairs.

Yes, the defenders who went to the military camp to call for help have been gone for so long, but until now they haven’t heard the sound of the army coming to fight the enemy. Maybe General Shi really ran away.

This is not the first time that General Shi has ignored the lives of his soldiers and only cared about escaping for his own life.

They have elderly parents and young children to take care of, they can't just die in vain.

With someone taking the lead, the other defenders stopped pretending, dropped their weapons, and swarmed towards the city gate tower.

Hundreds of defenders worked together to open the tightly blocked city gate and rushed out of the city.

"Plop" sound.

The defenders knelt down in front of Cong Chongqiu.

"We are willing to surrender and follow General Cong!"

Cong Chongqiu felt somewhat sad when he saw the skinny defenders.

Looking at the guards who kept coming out of the city gate, he let out a long sigh.

When no more soldiers came out of the city gate, Cong Chongqiu glanced at the kneeling soldiers.

"it is good!!"

"Those who are willing to join the God's Army, please stand on both sides immediately and follow behind the God's Army team."

"Yes!!" This was the loudest shout from the thousands of defenders in all these days.

After Cong Chongqiu watched the defenders retreat to both sides, he turned his horse's head and looked towards Xiao Yunhao's carriage.

"Welcome King Zhenbei to settle in Huanlian City!"

Then Cong Chongqiu looked at the cavalrymen holding crossbows on both sides of Xiao Yunhao's carriage.

“Go into the city!!!”

At a command, thousands of cavalrymen armed with crossbows followed Cong Chongqiu and headed towards the city.

Following closely behind was Xiao Yunhao's G-Class, the extended Lincoln driven by Shang Lu, and the Lin family army's motorcycle cavalry.

Behind them was the mighty army of gods, each of them carrying a lightweight crossbow on his back.

The defenders who retreated to both sides of the city gate stared with wide eyes at the strange means of transportation of the God Army, their mouths wide open in shock for a long time.

After a long while, the long-faced guard came back to his senses and muttered,

"Oh my god, that thing can actually move by itself..."

After saying this, the long-faced garrison soldier looked up at the dazzling sunlight in the sky.

“Could it be that the God Army is really destined to be ours!!?”

The defenders' legs were shaking as they stood at the city gate before they finally saw the rear of the God's Army.

At this moment, they were extremely glad that they surrendered.

The Heavenly God Army obviously has many more soldiers than the Huanlian City.

The point is, the gods' soldiers are tall and strong with sharp weapons. They are no match at all and there is no need to fight to the death.

Besides, if anyone should be blamed for the breach of Huanlian City, it should be the Wu Ma family and General Shi.

If the Wu Ma family had not refused to provide food and fodder, the defenders would not have been so hungry that they had no strength to fight.

There is also General Shi, who has not been seen yet.

Normally, which general would not come to the city gate to check for several days when the enemy army has reached the neighboring city?

Now, the enemy launched a surprise attack and wiped out Huanlian City.

That’s good, they don’t have to fight a war.

Cong Chongqiu led the cavalry in front to clear the way and headed straight towards the Huanlian City military camp.

Halfway through the journey, the cavalry in front stopped, and a soldier hurried over to report,

"Report, there are a large number of enemy troops ahead!"
