Shuangfengguan Fortress is located in the north of the Royal City, so in the opinion of Shangguan Haoming and others, Zhao's army will definitely regard the north gate of the Royal City as the primary attack location.
Moreover, Marshal Zhao will definitely appear here by then.
Therefore, two of the Zhenguo generals were directly arranged here, and with them were Shangguan Haoming, Murong Fuxing and others.
Although Shangguan Haoming and Murong Fuxing were civil servants, they each had the strength of peak martial arts masters, otherwise they would not be able to secure their positions as heads of the family.
At the other three city gates, in addition to the remaining two generals, the elders of the four major families also climbed onto the city wall to assist in the defense.
While the Xia State was nervously arranging defense matters, the Zhao State's army did not stop at all after breaking through the Shuangfeng Pass Fortress, but marched directly towards the Xia King's City.
After a long wait, in the anxious eyes of countless Xia soldiers, a black tide appeared on the horizon in the distance of the royal city.
The mighty army of hundreds of thousands surged towards the Xia Imperial City like a tide, directly covering everything within sight.
Seeing the terrifying scale of the Zhao army, all the Xia soldiers who saw this scene couldn't help but tremble.
But facing the terrifying numbers of Zhao's troops, even though Xia's soldiers were frightened, no one chose to leave their defensive position.
Because they know in their hearts that behind them are countless people of Xia Kingdom, including their parents and relatives.
The mighty Zhao army continued to approach the royal city, with hundreds of thousands of troops attacking. The terrifying sense of oppression made the entire Xia royal city fall silent.
However, unlike at Shuangfengguan Fortress, this time the Zhao army did not choose to launch an attack immediately after arriving at the royal city, but stopped before entering the range of the archers.
A tall and powerful Zhao general riding a black tiger, after the army stopped advancing, walked out of the huge military formation one man and one horse, and walked unscrupulously into the shooting range of Xia's archers.
"Is that the new generalissimo of Zhao State?"
Shangguan Haoming looked at the Zhao general riding a black tiger, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, but at the same time he was even more confused.
Xia and Zhao have been at odds with each other for many years. Senior generals and important figures on both sides have information.
Although Shangguan Haoming is not in the army, this information is open to him, but he has no impression at all of the new Marshal of Zhao in front of him.
You must know that being able to sit in the position of generalissimo means that this person has a high prestige in the Zhao army. Otherwise, it would be impossible to suppress a senior general like Li Teng.
But he had never heard of this person before, as if he just jumped out of the cracks in the rocks.
"That's right!"
Nangong Jian was standing next to Shangguan Haoming at this time, looking at Marshal Zhao with a solemn expression and said:
"He is the new generalissimo of the Zhao Kingdom, and he has the strength of the second level of the Martial King!"
After saying that, Nangong Jian showed a bitter expression on his face. The second level of King Wu was stronger than Nangong Invincible, but Xia Guo had no idea when Zhao Guo gave birth to such a terrifying strong man.
Zhao Guo hides too deeply!
"Commanders of the Xia Kingdom, please listen to me. I advise you not to resist needlessly!"
"Now, I will give you a way to survive. As long as you are willing to open the city gate and submit to my country, Zhao, I can promise not to harm any plant or tree in the royal city."
When people were within Xia's attack range, Marshal Zhao shouted loudly to the Xia soldiers guarding the royal city.
However, his words did not cause any waves at all.
"Open the city gate and submit to the Kingdom of Zhao?"
Looking at Marshal Zhao, everyone in the Xia Kingdom who was guarding the city couldn't help showing angry expressions on their faces. Shangguan Haoming stepped forward and sneered at Marshal Zhao and said:
"My Xia Kingdom soldiers are all good men with strong bones. How could they surrender without a fight? Just have your sweet dreams!"
Hearing Shangguan Haoming's words, Marshal Zhao couldn't help laughing. He looked at everyone in Xia Kingdom with undisguised sarcasm on his face.
"It seems that you haven't figured out the situation yet. Don't you still think that our Zhao country is still the same Zhao country before, a group of ignorant people. Now the sky has changed. You will witness the rise of an empire. It's not too late to surrender now!" "
"Otherwise, I will destroy your Xia country today!"
Speaking in a contemptuous tone, Marshal Zhao waved the spear in his hand, and the ground was instantly torn apart by the violent Yuan force, and a deep ravine appeared on the ground in front of the royal city.
After hearing the words of Marshal Zhao, the Xia soldiers couldn't help but change their expressions, and an ominous premonition surged in their hearts.
"What do you mean?"
Shangguan Haoming asked with a somewhat puzzled tone.
"A bunch of pathetic guys!"
Facing Shangguan Haoming's inquiry, Marshal Zhao said in a pitiful tone:
"You don't know the truth at all, let me tell you! Now our Zhao country has become a vassal state of Xuanyin Pavilion and a subordinate force of Xuanyin Pavilion. If your Xia Kingdom doesn't surrender now, it will only be destroyed by Xuanyin Pavilion. The sound pavilion was crushed into pieces.”
After Shangguan Haoming and others heard the words of Marshal Zhao, their expressions changed drastically. In an instant, the glimmer of hope they had in their hearts was completely destroyed.
Xuanyin Pavilion is an extremely powerful organization, its strength is enough to compete with the extremely powerful empire, its sphere of influence covers almost the entire territory of all nations, and it is the well-deserved overlord-level existence in this area.
How could Zhao Guo become a subordinate force of Xuanyin Pavilion?
You must know that although Xuanyin Pavilion is extremely powerful, the dragon has never seen its end. No one in the Xia Kingdom has ever come into contact with this huge force.
My limited knowledge is based on the rumor from a hundred years ago.
It is said that more than a hundred years ago, the Kingdom of Wei launched a war of annihilation against the neighboring Kingdom of Jin. The army of the Kingdom of Wei was unstoppable and marched all the way to the capital of Jin, and was about to destroy Jin.
However, when the survival of the Jin State was at stake, they did not know where they got the channel, used the wealth accumulated by the Jin State over the past century, and invited the experts of Xuanyin Pavilion to take action.
Within a few days, the masters of Xuanyin Pavilion sneaked into the Wei army. Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of thousands of troops, they directly beheaded the generals in the army. Four high-level Martial King-level generals were directly killed. With his head cut off and the dragons without a leader, the Wei Kingdom had no choice but to withdraw its troops, while the Jin Kingdom also escaped.
However, this incident attracted the king of the Wei Kingdom. Unwilling to accept it, he persuaded several kingdoms he had good relations with to directly declare war on Xuanyin Pavilion.
