Chapter 1798 Yan Batian
After Li Mu issued the military order, the entire Gyeonggi defenders began to move in an orderly manner. There were more outposts at night, and more spies sent out. The continuous stream of arrows and catapults were brought to the city tower.
Another day passed in such a tense atmosphere. After dawn the next day, the defenders were surprised to find that there were more military flags around them. Next to the white camp of the second prince, there were a large number of black camps, which meant that the Yan army had really come to the capital.
Soon, Li Mu, Zhou Yan, Zhao, He Sheng and others climbed to the city tower. A general said, "General, based on my understanding of the Yan army, we can see from the camp that they have at least 50,000 people this time."
"Although there are not many 50,000 Yan troops, they must be the absolute elite of Yan State. If this army disrupts Zhou State, a large number of Yan State troops will be launched one after another."
Li Mu said in a deep voice: "Military order was issued yesterday. Did the commanders of the border town reply?"
"Return to General Li, the commander of the border town either does not reply, or says that your order is false information and there is no Yan army entering the country at all."
"Damn it! These people deserve to die! Do they really have to watch the demise of Zhou for their own selfish interests?"
Li Mu was furious.
"Look at General Li, someone from the other party has come out."
A general said hurriedly.
He Sheng looked around and saw an army coming slowly more than ten miles away. Most of the soldiers rode war horses as big as elephants and wore black battle robes, which was very different from the soldiers of the Zhou Kingdom.
"It's the cavalry of Yan State."
Someone shouted in surprise.
Soon, the cavalry formation of Yan State stopped in front of the moat, which was exactly the range that the strongest crossbow in Zhou State could not be shot, and the provocation was very strong.
At this time, a general of Yan State, riding an astronomical war horse and wearing a cloak, walked out of the formation.
"Brother Li Mu, I am Yan Batian! During the border battle, Batian admired Brother Li Mu very much. Could Brother Li Mu walk out of the city gate and drink a drink with me in front of the formation?"
Yan Batian used his spiritual power to transmit his voice, and for a moment, his voice could be heard throughout Jingji.
"General Li, don't go. Yan Batian must have a bad intention. Maybe he deliberately led you out and launched an attack on the city."
"Yes! General Li, you are the commander of my guards. You must not be defeated by Yan Batian's trick."
The generals rushed to dissuade them.
Li Mu also showed an expression of difficulty in making a decision on his face.
"how?
Brother Li Mu, have you become a turtle after ten years of not seeing you?"
Yan Batian said sarcastically.
Li Mu turned to look at Zhou Yanzhao, "Yanzhao, I will go out of the city and meet this Yan Batian for a while. If I have something to do, I will leave it to you to command."
Zhou Yanzhao hurriedly said, "No! General Li."
Li Mu shook his head, "If I don't go out, Yan Batian will definitely shake our army's morale. Yan Zhao should defend the city well! I will hand over Yun'er and Jingji to you."
After saying that, Li Mu flew off the city tower.
"Brother He!"
Seeing that Li Mu was reluctant to dissuade him, Zhou Yanzhao looked at He Sheng.
He Sheng naturally understood what Zhou Yanzhao meant, "Okay, I'll go and have a look!"
"I'll go together, too!"
Su Qingzhu also stood up.
She could see that Yan Batian was a fifth-grade immortal cultivator. He Sheng went with him. If Yan Batian had a secret move, the two of them would definitely not be able to resist.
So He Sheng, Su Qingzhu and the others followed him down the city tower. Because the Yan army was overwhelming the city, they did not open the gate of the capital, and the soldiers in the capital were released. What was worried was that the Yan army took the opportunity to kill him.
Soon, He Sheng and the other two arrived a hundred feet away from the Yan army and stopped. This distance was beyond the attack distance of the fifth-grade fairy cultivator launching a surprise attack. If Yan Batian suddenly took action, the three of them could react.
Yan Batian was tall and strong, with a dark face. When he saw Li Mu, he laughed and said, "Brother Li Mu, you have not seen each other for ten years. You have become much more courageous! When you meet me, you also have two little babies, but that girl is really good. She is at the fifth level of immortal spirit at a young age."
"Yan Batian, say less nonsense. This is the battle between our country and our country. What fun is it for you to be the people of Yan?"
"I advise you to bring troops back to your Yan State as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the conflict between our Zhou State ends, I will lead troops to close you."
Li Mu shouted sternly.
"Hahaha, Brother Li Mu is so angry! But you misunderstood this time. My Yan State army is not here to trouble you, Zhou State, but to mediate your conflicts. Yan and Zhou are both neighbors, so we don't want to see the neighbors making too fiercely!"
"I think you'd better end the conflict sooner. Isn't your old emperor unable to do it?
Let’s just make the second prince the emperor. Why can’t you understand such a simple thing?”
"We Yan people are used to being good-looking people. I only have one condition. As long as you agree to the second prince ascend the throne, our Yan army will return to our country immediately and will never hurt you, one city and one people in Zhou."
"Haha, Yan Batian, do you believe what you said?
Over the years, your Yan State has repeatedly tore up the armistice agreement and invaded my borders. Your Yan State's jackal heart can be seen in the world."
Li Mu rebuked Yan Batian without hesitation.
Yan Batian laughed without being angry, "Brother Li Mu, this time, and this time, my Yan State is really here for the determination to be in good relations with Zhou State for generations. If you don't believe me, please look here."
As Yan Batian pointed his finger, a soldier in the Yan State military formation, wearing black armor slapped forward, took off his helmet, revealing a heroic and resolute face, "General Li, I have not seen each other for several months, and I am fine."
He Sheng also looked at the young soldier, but saw that he was three-point similar to Zhou Ling'er. Could it be that he was the second prince who was in trouble?
Sure enough, when He Sheng was thinking this, Li Mu shouted in surprise: "Second Prince!"
Obviously, he did not expect the second prince to appear in the Yan State military formation.
"General Li, I had no choice but to meet you in this way. You are the only person in the Zhou army who is still sober. You should know what kind of person my elder brother is! If Zhou is handed over to him, my Zhou country and country will be destroyed!"
"I have made an alliance with Yan State and the two countries will stop their troops from now on and have been repaired for generations. As long as I am allowed to take the position of emperor, I will definitely bring a brighter future to the people of Zhou State. At that time, there will be no war or killing, and everyone can live and work in peace and contentment."
He Sheng was amused on the other hand, "The second prince's speech was indeed good. Not only did he make his rebellious and justify his words, but his behavior of colluding with enemy countries also became the concern for the people of Zhou. Could it be that the people of Yan were so harmless and sent 50,000 troops to mobilize troops just to come to the capital of Zhou to take a tour of the capital?"
