"Zhong Xiang, do you think we can defend the imperial capital?"

In the imperial study of the Tianpeng Kingdom's palace, Qiu Tongbai was looking at Prime Minister Zhong Wanda with a face full of worry.

Qiu Tongbai, who was in the imperial study, could clearly hear the shouts and cries of killing coming from outside the palace.

He knew that the Great Zhou army had begun to attack the city.

Accompanied by the noisy shouts and cries of killing, the palace became chaotic. Many palace maids and eunuchs even sneaked out of the palace. The concubines in the harem also began to secretly pack up gold, silver and jewelry in preparation for escape.

Qiu Tongbai saw all of this, but he no longer cared about it.

At this moment, he was extremely sad. He had been the crown prince for thirty years and ascended the throne when he was nearly fifty years old. He did not expect to face such a desperate situation just three months after inheriting the throne.

But he never thought that it was he himself who caused this situation. If he had not coveted the Nine Nether Stone in Longtan Mountain and brazenly sent a large army to attack Da Zhou, how could Xiao Chen retaliate against him?

Zhong Wanda, who looked old and had a trace of sadness on his face, still tried to comfort him: "Your Majesty, don't worry. General Ye leads a 250,000-man defense force and will definitely be able to keep the Great Zhou army out of the city!"

"Also, our scouts have been dispatched for three days. Armies from all over the country are on their way to the imperial capital. Once they arrive, we will surely win this battle."

Zhong Wanda was comforting Qiu Tongbai, and at the same time, he was comforting himself. With the 250,000 troops in the imperial capital plus the troops from all over the country coming to support the king, couldn't the 400,000 or 500,000 troops stop the hundreds of thousands of troops from the Great Zhou?

What they didn't know was that the iron defense line built by the imperial capital was breached in just one day.

Hearing this, Qiu Tongbai smiled bitterly and said, "Prime Minister Zhong, the city is in chaos right now. I think your Prime Minister's Mansion must have a lot of things to deal with. You should go back first!"

Zhong Wanda did not refuse. He bowed and took his leave. At this time, the Prime Minister's Mansion also needed him to go back and take charge of the situation.

…

"Hold on, don't retreat!"

In front of the north gate of the imperial capital, looking at the Huolin Legion rushing into the city in an unstoppable manner, Ye Tianyuan, who was hit by an arrow, ignored the injury on his body, broke the arrow tail on his left chest with a sword, then jumped down from the city and rushed towards Li Cunxiao first.

Ye Tianyuan's determination to defend the imperial capital and his resentment towards Li Cunxiao made him fearless.

"charge!"

Looking at Ye Tianyuan rushing towards him, Li Cunxiao, who had already entered the city, was of course even more fearless and went to meet him alone.

This place is worthy of being the imperial capital of the Tianpeng Kingdom. Although many civilians have been temporarily added to the garrison, their combat effectiveness is still good and can be called elite.

The moment the Fire Scale Legion rushed in, those soldiers who were not killed by the Hundred Battles Divine Crossbow immediately launched a fierce counterattack.

Many arrows were shot down, causing heavy losses to the Huo Lin Legion, with dozens of people killed in the blink of an eye.

However, these people only had time to shoot a wave of arrows before they were covered by a denser rain of arrows.

After all, these people were just remnants of the army and could not launch an organized attack like the Fire Scale Legion. The 50,000-strong Fire Scale Legion first launched a rain of arrows and then charged with cavalry.

Because they needed to defend the city, most of the defenders in the imperial capital chose to abandon their horses and fight on foot. At this moment, they had no power to resist the cavalry of the Great Zhou.

In a blink of an eye, they were all slaughtered by the Fire Scale Legion.

Ye Tianyuan also had his head chopped off by Li Cunxiao's Yuwang Spear. As a Wu Hou realm cultivator, he had no ability to resist Li Cunxiao.

"General Li, I see that everything is going well for you. I won't stay any longer with Zhang Han. I'm going to go greet someone!"

Seeing Li Cunxiao killing Ye Tianyuan, Zhang Han in the air smiled calmly, which made Li Cunxiao startled.

Could it be that the person Zhang Han could personally welcome was...

Li Cunxiao was about to confirm with Zhang Han, but found that Zhang Han had disappeared into the air.

…

"Your Majesty, something bad has happened! Something terrible has happened!" Qiu Tongbai was feeling uneasy in the imperial study when he suddenly heard the voices of the imperial guards outside.

"What happened?" Qiu Tongbai asked angrily, with a vague feeling of unease rising in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the army of the Great Zhou is coming!"

"What?"

Qiu Tongbai was shocked as he just stood up, and pushed open the door of the palace with a bang.

"They are spreading rumors to confuse the people. Our imperial capital has over 200,000 troops stationed there. How could they possibly break in so quickly?"

"Yes, it's true. One of the other side's super strong men broke the city gate with just one palm!"

boom!

Qiu Tongbai only felt his head shaking, and his body took two steps back, and everything in front of him was dark.

He had long known that there were many powerful masters in the Great Zhou, but he had never expected these people to be so strong.

He knew very well how strong the gate of the imperial capital was. Even if a powerful martial arts commander attacked with all his strength for a whole day, it would be difficult to break it. But now it was shattered by a single palm.

It’s hard to imagine how strong this person is.

"Quick, quickly mobilize the army to defend the palace, and send someone to notify Ye Tianyuan to quickly return to defend the palace!"

Although he was panicked and frightened, Qiu Tongbai still knew what to do at this moment and made arrangements immediately.

But he didn't know that Ye Tianyuan had already been killed by Li Cunxiao at this time.

"yes!"

After the Imperial Guards left, Qiu Tongbai anxiously muttered to himself, "Looks like we can only ask our ancestors to help. Otherwise, no one can stop the super-powerful man from the Great Zhou!"

Thinking of this, Qiu Tongbai hurried to the depths of the imperial palace, where two royal ancestors were in seclusion.

…

The battle in the imperial capital ended quickly. Ye Tianyuan was killed instantly by Li Cunxiao, and the defenders were almost wiped out by the Huolin Troupe. The imperial capital had completely fallen.

Hao Meng and Zang Ba led the army and were ordered to occupy the east and west gates, and the operation progressed smoothly.

"General, we now have three of the four city gates in our hands. Only the north gate remains!"

"Don't worry, Feng Xiao is there with 50,000 soldiers. Not even a fly can escape!"

Li Cunxiao smiled and said, "Order the troops to quickly wipe out the remaining enemies and then reunite here!"

"yes!"

Half an hour later, the Fire Scale Legion that had entered the imperial capital converged like a torrent.

After the 30,000 Fire Scale Legion troops arrived nearby, Li Cunxiao led them and slowly walked towards the palace of the Tianpeng Kingdom.

The people in the royal capital were hiding in their homes, and when they saw such a large army, they were so scared that they dared not come out.

This time, the Great Zhou Empire has truly established an invincible reputation in the hearts of these people.

Another half hour later, Li Cunxiao led the army to the outside of the palace.

He looked at the soldiers on the palace walls and shouted, "In the name of the Emperor of the Great Zhou Empire, lead an army of 100,000 to capture the capital of the Tianpeng Kingdom!"

"I am Li Cunxiao, the commander of the Fire Scale Legion. I will give you some time to consider. Anyone who surrenders by opening the palace gates will be spared!"

"Those who dare to defy the will of Heaven will be crushed to pieces when the army storms the palace! Kill without mercy!"

“Kill without mercy!”

“Kill without mercy!”

“Kill without mercy!”

The Fire Scale Legion shouted these three words in unison, the sound shaking the heavens, and frightened the guards of the Tianpeng Kingdom's palace so much that their faces turned pale, and the timid ones even wet their pants.
