"The South China Sea Allied Forces defeated three cities in a row!"
"Leader Zuo Shiren, defeated five cities in a row!"
"Xu Mu, King of Western Shu, rushed to the shore with his vast navy and led the enemy troops to the center of the river. It has become an encirclement and suppression force."
One after another good news continued to spread among the Allied forces.
At first glance, Cangzhou in front of us is already devastated. We can only continue to retreat. Now, there are only two counties left.
Xu Mu, who was on the boat, also heard the good news. Unlike others who were cheering, he was more calm.
I can't hold on, but I insist on holding on. In his opinion, the Demon Queen is not stupid. Therefore, there must be a backup plan. As for the second move, it's almost time to take the lead.
After tearing the good news into pieces, Xu Mu raised his head and said, "Ma Yi's side, how are the battle losses?"
"My lord, the war is not over yet and the settlement has not yet been settled."
"I'm a little anxious. Naturally, I trust General Yuncheng."
…
"Cangzhou dog, lead him to death quickly!" Ma Yi looked at the fighting in front of him on the building boat. He felt itchy in his heart for a moment and wanted to pick up his sword and follow the soldiers to kill the enemy.
But Xu Mu warned him when he left. The general is in charge and cannot take personal risks. Therefore, he held back and only continued to curse at his mother when he was giving military orders.
In the front, after two days of fighting, the enemy army was obviously defeated.
Not only did Western Shu have shield ships, but Cangzhou also had many imitations. It's a pity that the painting of tiger-like dogs didn't play a big role.
"Starting pole!" A Xishu general stood on the warship with his sword drawn, and his voice was like thunder for a moment.
The huge racket was quickly smashed down, directly breaking half of the hull of a nearby Cangzhou warship.
"Long shot!"
It was already dark, and the fire arrows from both sides drew long smoke tails in the night, like falling meteor showers, each thrown towards the other's ship array.
"General Lin, something is not right. In the past two days, there have been too many battle losses, and the morale of the soldiers is low. If we continue, this water battle will be defeated!"
Lin Tong has been watching the battle, and he understands that the Cangzhou Navy is now in complete crisis without being reminded by his personal guards.
There were screams, floating corpses, and half-sunken warships all around.
There was not much panic on his face. As early as he left Cangzhou Jiang'an, he knew that he was going to die in this scene.
Lin Tong stood up, with a look of determination on his face.
"Send the order, twenty tower ships will rush to kill the enemy together with the main ship. At this moment, we will break through and return to Cangzhou!"
After the military order was passed down, countless Cangzhou soldiers had an extra hope of survival.
Only Lin Tong, the standing figure, suddenly trembled.
"Kill!" He raised his head, drew his knife and shouted angrily.
"Follow me, Lin Tong, and fight to the death with the enemy!"
…
Seeing the enemy ship approaching, Ma Yi was startled. If it had been before, he would have just thought that the enemy soldiers were killed and would have ignored them.
But things were different now, his lord had told him. This crusade against Cangzhou is very likely to involve many changes, conspiracies, and tricks.
"Send the order, break the siege, and don't engage with enemy ships!"
As a result, there will definitely be some casualties. Perhaps deep down in the hearts of the soldiers, they would also scold them as "cowards". But Ma Yi had to be careful. He believed in his lord more than God.
As soon as the water formation dispersed, the last few dozen enemy ships that rushed towards them suddenly became blazing into the sky.
Lin Tong, who was standing on the main ship, also screamed miserably to the sky, bathed in the fire, and gradually turned into a burning man.
Some Allied warships that were closer were innocently implicated in the fire, and countless Allied soldiers jumped into the river. The boat master, who had no time to escape, screamed in pain and his limbs were distorted by the fire.
Ma Yi swallowed hard. He was very lucky to have always listened to his master's words. Otherwise, many people would be burned to death in this encirclement and suppression.
"This Lin Tong...could he be crazy and turn the main ship into a fire boat?"
Ma Yi didn't know that Lin Tong had already decided to die before going on the expedition. With the bodyguards of the headquarters, many flammable objects were secretly buried on many buildings and ships, which could be ignited at the drop of a button.
"Go, go put out the fire!" Ma Yi gritted his teeth. Lin Tong's counterattack, although the damage was not great, still gave him a head-on blow.
"In addition, send a message to the lord, saying that the water battle has been won. Our Western Shu navy is about to wash ashore."
…
"Lord, Luocheng has been captured!"
Listening to the good news, Zuo Shiren smiled. Since the launch of the general offensive, it can be regarded as a series of victories under the strong attack.
"In addition, the Xishu Navy on the river has also defeated the Cangzhou Navy and has begun to rush to Cangzhou."
"Okay!" Zuo Shiren clenched his fists.
"The Demon Queen has only two counties left and less than ten cities! Within one month, I, Zuo Shiren, will enter the palace and capture the Demon Queen alive!"
Zuo Shiren also understood that the defenders who had fought in succession in the past few days were not truly elite. On the contrary, among them, many Cangzhou civilians were temporarily deployed to defend the city until death.
"The leader of the alliance is mighty! Our great alliance in the world is so powerful, how can the Demon Queen stop it!" A leader of a small force nearby began to compliment hurriedly.
Zuo Shiren was not lost in this rainbow fart. He glared at the little leader and continued to plan a strategy to attack the city.
"In the last ten cities, the Demon Queen will definitely send out elites. Someone, please go and pass the order and tell the South China Sea Alliance not to get carried away. The next step is the real attack."
"Got the order!"
The two counties and ten cities are already in danger according to the current Allied offensive.
But Demon Empress Su, who was sitting in the palace, was not too panicked.
"Queen Mother, what should we do?" Someone in the hall spoke tremblingly.
Demon Empress Su smiled and said, "I had already reduced my troops and used civilians as soldiers, so today is the end of it. Don't worry, I have a way."
"There are only two counties left, but I am confident. These last two counties and ten cities are in a defensive position and can be defended for at least two months. Two months is enough for a lot of things to happen in the entire Central Plains."
Many of the ministers in the palace were promoted by the Demon Queen. Hearing this sentence, he also smiled lightly.
"Twenty thousand, more than two hundred thousand troops have been transferred to Cangzhou. In Hebei, the teacher has laid out a plan to contain the King of Yuzhou."
"Since it's already messy, let's make it even messier."
"Xu Buyi's vision is too short-sighted after all. He only focuses on the land south of the Yangtze River. He doesn't know yet that my strategy has spread throughout the Central Plains."
Some ministers didn’t understand and wanted to ask again. However, they discovered that at some point, the Queen Mother in front of them had already stood up and began to put on a newly made women's armor under the guidance of her attendants.
On the tile roof outside the hall, the mute slave Ah Qi also opened his eyes. There was an extremely cold killing intent in his eyes.
In the camp outside the royal capital, densely packed marching formations began to wield halberds and armor, converging into a huge vicious snake, densely black, meandering crazily forward along the long official road.
