Chapter 563: Chapter 563. The Heavens Are Helping Me

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

To capture a thief, one must first capture the leader. Wan Yulin, who had been on the battlefield for many years, knew this very well. As long as Xiao Zeyu died, the Xiao Family Army would be without a leader.

At that time, the Xiao Family Army was like a plate of loose sand and would be easily scattered.

Wan Yulin’s ability to be a formidable man was naturally not just for show. His archery was 100% accurate, and his exquisite bow was not weak, and people could not even pull it open. It was also because the range was twice as long as an ordinary bow.

Wan Yulin calculated the distance. It would still be challenging to kill Xiao Zeyu from this position. He ordered his men to shout at Xiao Zeyu,

“The Emperor wants you to come forward and report back. Everything can be discussed to avoid war and the people suffering.”

“If you want to talk, come down.”

Would Xiao Zeyu fall for this old fellow’s trick? He hooked his finger at Wan Yulin on the city wall as if he were playing with his prey.

“Preposterous.”

Wan Yulin gritted his teeth in hatred. You’re just a lowly commoner. How dare you ask the esteemed Emperor to come down and talk to you? Did he not know the immensity of heaven and earth?

“Attack the city.”

Xiao Zeyu didn’t want to delay any longer and waved his hand at the cannoneers behind him.

Wan Yulin was right in front of him. If he could take down the city gate, he would be able to kill his enemy. Seeing that Xiao Zeyu was not falling for his trick, Wan Yulin simply shot him. With the help of the pill, he would be able to kill the Xiao family’s child.

Xiao Zeyu had just given the order to attack the city when he heard the sound of something breaking through the air. The shieldbearers beside him immediately came over and used their shields to protect the young master.

It was also because Wan Yulin’s strength had doubled after eating the pill that he managed to shoot the arrow right in front of Xiao Zeyu. With a clang, the arrow hit the shield and fell to the ground.

Xiao Zeyu’s shieldbearers used reflective shields, reflecting the sunlight onto the city walls. The blinding light made it impossible for the soldiers on the city walls to see the movements of the Xiao Family Army.

By the time they saw it clearly, it was already too late. Eight mortars were fired at the same time, and the shells shot onto the city wall. With a fierce explosion, the wall was blown up, and gravel flew all over the sky.

The explosion almost killed Wan Yulin. Fortunately, he was pressed down by the guards to protect his life. He was in an extremely sorry state. Wan Yulin stood up with a livid face and ordered the chess player to change the flag in his hand. He used flag signals to order the cavalry sent out to charge into the formation and snatch the mortars.

Qin Tie would rather die than build a mortar for him. He could only think of this worst plan, to snatch the mortar before the battle.

It had to be said that he was a crafty old fox, but Xiao Zeyu had already made ample preparations. When he saw the flag signals on the city walls, he ordered his guards to each carry a grenade. He first used the shield formation to make the cavalry unable to open their eyes before the guards threw them.

The armored cavalry was already swift, but they were not as fast as grenades.

One by one, they were blasted into the air, and before they could even fire their arrows, they were all wiped out.

This was also because the heavens were helping Xiao Zeyu. The sun was brighter than usual today, and the light on the shield was so blinding that one couldn’t see anything.

Wan Yulin watched as the ambush he had carefully set up was destroyed. His eyes were red with hatred. Since sneak attacks did not work, he used numbers to suppress them. He did not believe that the explosion could kill him.

Just as Wan Yulin was about to give the order, his subordinates reported that the back door and the side doors on the left and right had also been attacked. Wan Yulin, who was a powerful bow, swayed and almost fell.

This was also when the heavens were about to kill a person. It would make him lose his rationality and judgment. If he only ate one pill, he could last for ten days to half a month. But to give himself enough energy to deal with Xiao Zeyu, he ate two pills.

The lead content in the pill was shockingly high. If a weak person overdoses of it, it would be equivalent to poison. Wan Yulin could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His eyes rolled over to the city wall blasted into a vast pit.

This time, it was chaotic. The Emperor had vomited blood in front of the three armies. The army’s morale was disturbed, and many people had lost their fighting spirit.

The moment Wan Yulin fainted, the sun in the sky was blocked by the dark clouds. The wind blew, and sand and stones flew. All of this happened almost in an instant.

Many soldiers of the Wan Clan Army saw the sudden change in the weather and felt that it was a sign of the end of the Wan Clan Dynasty.

Su Qing also saw the changes in the weather. One second, the sun was shining brightly, and the next second, a strong wind blew. This made Su Qjng, who did not believe in heaven and earth, feel magical.

Xiao Zeyu was overjoyed when he saw the change in the weather. Even the heavens were helping him. He pointed the silver spear in his hand at the city walls and ordered loudly,

“Fire!”

Su Qing looked up at the city wall with her binoculars. She could see Wan Yulin in his yellow robe earlier, but the city wall was in chaos, and Wan Yulin was nowhere to be seen.

She didn’t know what was happening in the city, but now was the best opportunity to attack. Su Qing rode to Xiao Zeyu’s side and said,

“Shuisheng, blow up the city gate.”

“Why are you here? Go back quickly.”

Xiao Zeyu saw Su Qjng had rushed her back. Su Qjng touched him and sighed. The baby had come at the wrong time. He could only watch but not hit her.

This made Su Qing feel like he couldn’t use all his strength.

Zhong Yong and Zhang Jinglin heard the sound of cannons coming from the front gate. They ordered the cannoneers to fire and blow up the city gate.

The soldiers guarding the city trembled when they saw the fire-spewing mortars. How were they going to fight this battle?

Zhong Yong watched as the city gate was blasted open. He could not use the Rolling Wood Thunder Rock at all. He was fearless. After blasting open the city gate, he wanted to attack but was stopped by the deputy general.

“Young Master specifically instructed us to blow up the city gate and not rush in.”

“How troublesome.”

Zhong Yong could only wait for them to open fire. The Wan Family Army in the city rushed out on horseback under the leadership of the general. They wanted to snatch the mortars. As long as they had this, they could defend the city. They would not hesitate to sacrifice any number.

The order was to defend the city, but the gate was gone. It was no different from rushing out. Instead of watching the Xiao Family Army attack the city, it was better to take the initiative to attack. It was better to die a heroic death ’ than without doing anything.

When Zhong Yong saw them come out, he grinned and said,

“Brothers, kill them all.”

He took the lead, and behind him was the 10,000 Xiao Family Army. They were like the rising sea tide, making a majestic sound as they rushed toward the 10,000 Wan Family Army.

When Zhang Jinglin heard the sound of the cannons, he also ordered them to fire. Seeing that the city gate had been blasted open, his eyes flashed with a high-spirited light. The opportunity to make a name for himself had arrived.

Yelu Chun was at the back gate and had been sending scouts to scout the front. When he heard the sound of cannons, he also ordered the cannons to fire. The back gate could not bear the heavy load and was blown open. He led 30,000 Tartan soldiers and charged into the city.

Besieged on all sides was unsettling to Wan Yulin. Fortunately, he had fainted at this moment. Otherwise, he would have vomited half a liter of blood when he heard this news!

Xiao Zeyu didn’t stay idle either. After a round of bombing, he led his troops into the city.

Wan Yulin’s guards and the commander of the capital led the Wan family army to resist. The imperial physician was brought to treat Wan Yulin. The person who gave Wan Yulin the pill saw Wan Yulin’s appearance and knew that the pill had poisoned him.

But he didn’t dare to say this. Was he giving the Emperor a poisonous pill? He could only pretend to be ignorant.

The army was at the city’s gates, and the Emperor’s life was hanging by a thread.. The generals and soldiers of the Wan Family Army watched in fear as Xiao Zeyu led his army into the city!
