Previously, it was because the other party's soul guide kept pestering them, which took too much energy from them, that the lethality of their soul guides could not inflict much damage on the enemy.
Suddenly, someone shouted in surprise, "Look! Our reinforcements are coming."
Orange looked far into the distance, and sure enough, in the distance, a dark army had appeared. At the end of the field of view. They are quickly encircling them from all directions. For a moment, the sound of killing was loud. Her tactical purpose was finally achieved. Lure the enemy deep, gather them together and annihilate them!
The enemy army was obviously caught off guard by the sudden army, and was a little panicked for a while. But just at this time. A bright yellow and colorless battle flag was suddenly raised in the enemy formation.
A man stood up and landed firmly on a tall horse, waving a war flag in his hand. His voice was so loud that it echoed throughout the battlefield.
"The Duke of Brilliance obeys the order. This general is the eldest son of the Duke of Brilliance and the first heir to the title. The general of the principality is Zhao Yang. With this general here, I will definitely lead everyone to break out of the siege. On the hillside, The person holding the position is the fiancée of the Prince of the Sun and Moon Empire. As long as we catch her, the enemy will not dare to touch us. This is our only chance, come with me!"
As he spoke, the man jumped on a tall horse, holding a bright yellow and colorless battle flag, and rushed straight towards the hillside.
The prince, General Zhao Yang, was not originally the commander of this attack. It was his cousin who was responsible for commanding the army. He came specifically to hold the battle for his cousin. Seeing that the situation was not good at this time, I had to take action myself. He quickly took out his golden helmet and armor from the storage soul guide. While putting it on and going into battle, he also used his actions and voice to stabilize the morale of the army. Show off your general style. Of course, the amplified soul guide also played an important role.
The soul master team on the hillside saw the reinforcements arriving and were already cheering, but naturally they also heard the enemy's words.
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Orange.
What was revealed in their eyes at this moment was not panic, but a look of disbelief. They never imagined that the girl who had been commanding them in recent months, fighting with them on the front line and living and dying together, and constantly showing her wisdom and determination, was actually the fiancée of His Highness the Crown Prince.
Orange has never revealed his identity. Since joining the army, she has relied on her status as a sixth-level soul engineer to reach her current position step by step. I don’t know how the news was leaked, and the other party found out her true identity.
You must know that the plan to lure the enemy deeper was proposed by her! With such a noble status, he is willing to take big risks. These soul engineers all felt as if something was choking in their hearts.
A cold light flashed in Nanzi's eyes, and she understood that there must be someone around His Highness Taijizi, otherwise her identity would not be leaked so quickly.
Taking a deep breath, she looked at the soul engineers around her. He said in a deep voice: "He is right, I am the fiancée of the Imperial Prince. But I am also an Imperial soldier. Today, I will live and die with everyone. The reinforcements are right in front of us, and my partners are in order to protect them. Let’s fight with no hope of survival. Persistence is victory, and we will be able to hold on until the reinforcements arrive.”
As she spoke, she took the lead and rushed towards the direction where the Duke's Crown Prince, Zhao Yang, was coming in a hurry.
Keke then shouted, "What are you doing? The enemy is coming. Even the Crown Princess has to live and die with us. Can we really let the enemy hurt her?" "
"I will protect the Crown Princess to the death." A young soul master shouted at the top of his lungs, shouldering his soul cannon with all his strength, and fired it towards the swarming enemy troops with his eyes blazing. No soul-guided shells were released.
Morale suddenly rose to an unprecedented height. Because of Orange's bravery, but also because of the hope of survival.
However, no one among them noticed that both Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong had opened their eyes at this time.
Looking at each other, Wang Dong whispered: "Is there a princess?"
Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know. However, this seems to better explain her mysterious places. Anyway, today I want to return her favor. What happens next, let's talk about it later."
Wang Dong nodded gently, "Whatever you want, do it."
Huo Yuhao smiled. Although he was surrounded by thousands of troops, he suddenly found that his mood suddenly became not nervous at all, just because he had this good brother beside him, and this partner who could calmly and calmly accompany him through life and death.
Under Zhao Yang's call, the originally panicked rebels finally found an outlet. The people on the hillside want to survive, and so do they! Of course they knew what would happen if they were rebels and were surrounded by the Imperial Army. In order to survive, they must go all out.
The intensity of the offensive instantly became several times stronger than before. With the assistance of war horses, the heavy armored infantry quickly rushed to the front of the hillside. They even gave up their weapons. Two people each carried a heavy tower shield and strode towards the hillside.
After all, this is just a hillside, less than two hundred meters high. And there isn’t much terrain to rely on. The tide-like army seemed to be swamping the less than a hundred people on the top of the mountain in an instant.
Although the soul guide cannon is powerful, it also consumes a lot of soul power. Level 4 bottles cannot last very long. What's more, Orange and the others are also tired soldiers! At this time, it was completely supported by a stream of blood.
The tower shield cannot withstand the bombardment of level 4 or higher soul cannons, but the problem is that the destructive power of the soul cannon is greatly reduced with the obstruction of the tower shield. The enemy is rushing towards the top of the mountain step by step.
"Get out of the way. I'll do it." Zhao Yang shouted. He is thirty-six years old this year and is in his prime. Duke Guangming rebels and wants to establish his own duchy. In fact, he has a great relationship with this prince. If he hadn't been so ambitious and relied on the fortresses and natural dangers of the Brilliant Grand Duke's territory. How could the glorious Grand Duke, who was nearly seventy years old and was not a soul master himself, make such a decision?
Zhao Yang is a genius. Although he is from the Sun and Moon Empire, he has not liked soul tools since he was a child, preferring to develop his own strength. He got the maternal gene and possesses a very powerful martial spirit, the Golden Bear. He was only thirty-six years old, but he had already become a Soul Saint. In terms of personal strength, he is ranked high among the Glorious Dukes.
The Grand Duke Guangming was responsible for guarding the northern part of the Sun and Moon Empire. A sudden rebellion caught the Sun and Moon Empire by surprise. The explanation given by the Brilliant Grand Duke himself was very simple. He only asked for the establishment of an independent principality and kept all other tributes unchanged. He was even willing to double the tribute. Hopefully it will be recognized by the empire.
His Majesty, the Emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire, has been suffering from illness and has long lost his energy. According to his thoughts, he was not in a hurry to use troops against the Brilliant Duke. He was hesitant and afraid of how the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Star Luo Empire would react.
However, the Crown Prince Xu Tianran opposed all opinions and firmly stated that Duke Brilliance was a traitor and must be completely killed in order to frighten all the nobles who owned fiefs.
In the end, Xu Tianran gained the emperor's approval with the support of Jing Hongchen, the leader of Mingde Hall, and a group of direct relatives. When the army was sent out, it was natural that his group of troops took the dominant position. After joining the army, he had already participated in many wars, and even joined in the battle against the Western Sea Spirit Master. Now, she has accumulated meritorious service and become the leader of a soul engineer team.
Don't underestimate this position. In the army system of the Sun and Moon Empire, there are four divisions of soul masters, each with only a thousand people. These four thousand soul mentors are the mainstay of the Sun and Moon Empire. He can command a hundred of them. Nanzi's position is comparable to that of the division commander of an ordinary infantry corps. One hundred soul mentors, used properly, can turn the tide on the battlefield.
It was only when Orange heard Zhao Yang shouting that he understood why there was a team of soul engineers chasing them. Those soul mentors are probably all the Brilliant Duke’s trump cards. As long as they can withstand this battle, they will definitely win the final victory. The rebels no longer have anything to rely on.
And Zhao Yang’s idea is also very simple. When the empire and its resolute attitude rejected their tribute, declared them rebels, and mobilized an army to come and comment, he realized how stupid it was to want to read the Principality in the Sun and Moon Empire. At this time, the glorious Grand Duke's side was actually in chaos. The reason why today he sent out a small number of soul master troops and tens of thousands of troops at all costs, and pursued them with perseverance, was that the target was actually Orange, the future princess concubine whom he had received information from inside.
He had never thought of harming Orange, but wanted to capture her alive and use her as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the Sun and Moon Empire. Of course he knew that it was Prince Xu Tianran who was leading this war. He had already thought of a way out for himself, and his demands were not high. He was willing to surrender and hand over military power. But keep your fiefdom and wealth.
The premise of all this is that he can win the oranges on the hillside, otherwise, everything will be in vain.
The imperial army has obviously discovered Zhao Yang's purpose, and the encircling army is coming as fast as possible. Now, it's a race against time for both sides.
Amidst the loud shouts, Zhao Yang thrust the bright yellow flag into the ground. With the help of the elasticity of the flagpole, he, wearing a golden helmet and golden armor, shot out and went straight to the top of the mountain. Rush away. While running wildly, he grabbed spears from the soldiers around him and threw them towards the top of the mountain. The spears rushed up to the top of the mountain like lightning. The firepower pouring from the top of the mountain was immediately suppressed to a great extent. q
