When they saw the full-blooded soldier running towards this side, Zhu Yanshuo and the others were visibly startled at first.
After that, a sense of foreboding was rising rapidly in their hearts.
Zhu Yanshuo forced himself to remain calm, took a deep breath and looked at the person coming.
The soldier, who had only just reached the feet of the crowd, wanted to kneel down but couldn’t help but fall to the ground with a thud as his feet were already weak.
He did not dare to have the slightest delay, raised his head and said with difficulty, “Report to Lord Dust, report to Elder Divine Dragon, the East …… East City Gate has lost …… its defenses.”
“What?”
A group of people almost simultaneously opened their eyes wide, obviously hearing something they could hardly believe.
“What are you talking about? Say what you just said again?” Zhu Yan Shuo said as if he had seen a ghost.
“The east gate …… is lost, the city …… gates are broken.”
Facing each other, all of them froze for a long time with quite a tacit understanding.
Zhu Yan Shuo’s whole body was shaking with anger: “This is only ten minutes, and the east gate it broke? What are you all doing, you bunch of losers? Where is Commander Wang? I want him to come to me with his head.”
“Wang …… Commander Wang has been killed in battle!”
Clap!
Zhu Yanshuo’s entire body felt like his soul had suddenly been jerked out of him, his face pale as he stumbled, and only under the hurried a*sistance of the commanders did he manage to regain his footing.
Dead in battle?
This meant that the Wang Commander and the others were not as weak as they had imagined; on the contrary, he was indeed fighting for his life.
But the question was, how could he have fought so hard and yet be defeated so quickly?
This was really against common sense.
“What happened at the East City Gate?” Hei Yu asked in a cold voice.
“When Commander Wang led us to fortify the East City Gate, it was quite effective at first. Although there were enemies outside, the situation was even better as our defences were strong thanks to the walls.”
“If the situation was so good, why did it suddenly fail?” A commander immediately questioned.
“But what happened was that the external attack was so strong and we were so focused on the front line that we didn’t expect someone behind us to suddenly climb the walls and launch a surprise attack from behind.”
“As a result of their sudden attack, there was a great deal of chaos above our city tower, and some of them took advantage of the chaos to sneak deeper into the city gates, killing the defenders there and opening them wide, so our army was faced with a situation where we lost our top and bottom, although Commander Wang led us to forcefully stop them at once.”
“But what was unfortunate was that the gang of people who came to attack the city were simply too many experts, thus, even though Commander Wang had given the battle order of certain death, the entire force still did not have any power to fight back.”
“If my prediction is not wrong, I am afraid that by now the soldiers over at the East City Gate …… have been completely wiped out.” The words fell, the soldier knelt on the ground, his head buried deeply.
Thinker
The first time I heard these words, Hei Yu’s entire body also completely staggered back, the crowd of commanders rushed to help her, the other side of Ye Shijun but because of una*sisted and a heavy buttocks sat on the ground.
The East Gate had been lost and the whole army had been wiped out!
This was the worst news they wanted to hear at the moment.
This meant that their plan to pounce on Han Qianqian had been completely torn asunder.
“The inner city can be reached by using the city tower, but who the hell would go up from this position?” A commander cursed aloud.
“f*ck, it must be the remnants of that Demon Cloud Ghost City just now, their retreat just now wasn’t a fall from grace at all, but a choice ……”
With a single word, he completely woke up everyone present, and Zhu Yan Shuo’s eyes even widened.
This means that the bunch of rabble he was just laughing at, but in a moment, stabbed him directly in the heart in the most face-breaking way!
Laughable? Laughable indeed. Sad? Truly sad.
And almost at that very moment, along with a commotion at the gate of the city lord’s palace in the distance, the enemy of the broken army had ……
The incoming attack!
