Chapter 2200: Start the war, the rescue will not come

Chapter 822: Start the war, the rescue will not come

People in the imperial court naturally did not dare to confront in public, let alone allow Xiao Tianyao to count the treasury and compared his property. Of course, the imperial court’s disapproval was not just because they didn’t dare, but more because of their face.

Prince Xiao said he wanted to confront them face to face, so he asked people to come face to face. What would be the face of the court?

Prince Xiao said that he wanted to check the treasury, so should they open the treasury and asked him to count it? Where will they put the face of the court?

Moreover, no one can guarantee that if the court agrees to Prince Xiao’s request, Prince Xiao will withdraw his troops. After all, 90% of the crimes the Emperor imposed on Prince Xiao were unfounded. What should they do if he confronts them and let them count, and prove that Prince Xiao was innocent?

Would it be possible for the Emperor to slap himself and admitted that he had harmed a good and loyal citizen?

It must be a joke. The emperor can’t be wrong, even if he made a mistake, he will never admit it.

The matter has come to this point, the imperial court and Prince Xiao had no other choice but to fight.

“Xiao Wangye, no matter how much you say, you can’t change the fact of your rebellion. Put down your weapons and surrender now. Seeing your past achievements, the Emperor may forgive you and give you a lighter sentence.” The generals on the city wall were not influenced by the Jinwuwei Army even for a bit. He insisted that Xiao Tianyao was rebelling, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to quarrel with Xiao Tianyao’s subordinates for eighteen rounds, but… …

Nothing!

After he finished speaking, Prince Xiao didn’t answer at all, as if he didn’t hear it. And not only did they not speak, but they also didn’t even plan to send troops. The Jinwuwei Army under the city wall stood there like wooden stakes, motionless.

“What’s going on here?” No matter how knowledgeable the generals guarding the city are, they have never seen such a situation.

What exactly was Prince Xiao going to do?

He came here last night, and he grasped the best time, but he didn’t move at all.

They lined up at the city wall early this morning and called for a long time, but they stopped halfway through the call, and there was no sign of attacking the city at all.

“What does Xiao Wangye mean?” He doesn’t understand, he doesn’t.

“I think Xiao Wangye means that he doesn’t want to send troops? If he doesn’t want to send troops, what is he doing here?” The generals looked at each other, and they were a little bit discouraged, while they were confused.

They managed to pluck up the courage and prepared themselves mentally for a fight with the Jinwuwei Army. They even thought about how to celebrate if they won against them. But what happened?

They prepared for a day and a night, but the other party didn’t intend to fight at all. This feeling was like, you have made all the preparations and threw a punch with all your strength, but it hits the cotton, and all the strength was in vain.

“Xiao Wangye won’t stop fighting, right? After the rescue soldiers arrive today, it won’t be good for Xiao Wangye to keep surrounding the gate like this.” The general defending the city felt that they were going crazy. From yesterday to now, he has been tense, ready to fight to the death against the Jinwuwei Army, but in the end, Prince Xiao insisted on not sending troops, suffocating him to death.

Seeing this, the subordinates whispered: “General, why don’t we take the initiative to send troops?” There was no way to be so stiff. They were under a lot of pressure facing the cold Jinwuwei Army which was like pillars all the time.

“No, we are no match for the Jinwuwei Army in terms of military strength, and we will lose if we take the initiative to send troops.” The side that defends the city was born with an advantage. If they want to open the city gate and go out, it was tantamount to losing their advantage.

“Then what should we do? Just wait until we are exhausted?” If this continues, their morale will be exhausted.

“The longer the delay, the better for us, what are you afraid of.” The general defending the city always felt that this matter was not easy, but now he dared not think too much about it, and he couldn’t think too much about it.

His responsibility was to guard the city gate as much as possible.

Neither side intends to start a war. Naturally, they can’t afford to fight, but not being able to fight doesn’t mean they can relax. Even if there was no war, the Jinwuwei Army was still standing under the city wall ready to go. Under such circumstances, the soldiers guarding the city cannot let down their guard.

The two sides were at a stalemate. The tense atmosphere didn’t subside until around noon when it was time for the Jinwuwei Army to eat.

When the Jinwu Guards ate, the general guarding the city would naturally also eat. To stimulate the Jinwuwei Army, the general guarding the city specially ordered people to prepare big fish and meat and moved the cauldron to the city wall, which made people drool.

Most of the soldiers were suffering, and it was good to have enough food in the army. It was almost impossible to think about big fish and meat. It was inhumane to bring up this pot of meat. The soldiers in the city can’t wait to take their bowls. After getting the meat, he stood on the city wall and ate it in big mouthfuls, shouting while eating: “It’s delicious, it’s delicious, it’s delicious.”

“This meat is made by the chef of Xianmanlou, it tastes good.”

“It’s so delicious. After eating this bowl of meat, even if there is a big battle, I have strength.”

“Yes, yes, yes, you will have the strength to fight when you are full. I am afraid that those rebellious soldiers of the Jinwuwei Army will be too timid to go to war. Once they go to war, let them see how powerful I am.”

“What’s so delicious about the hard-dry food pancakes? We all eat rice and meat. You said that Xiao Wangye loves his soldiers like sons. I don’t think so. Look at what Xiao Wangye gave you, and then look at what the emperor give us to eat. I advise you to surrender early. The court will naturally not treat you badly.” They have crystal clear white rice, topped with fragrant sauce. It was the best food for soldiers. After eating this meal, people will have the strength to hold a knife.

The Jinwuwei Army also likes to eat meat and white rice. Compared with the soldiers of the imperial court, their food itself was worse. They follow Xiao Tianyao, at most, they can only eat enough, and occasionally they can have a good meal. But it was impossible to have a meal of white rice with meat.

However, the generals and soldiers defending the city underestimated the Jinwuwei Army and also underestimated Xiao Tianyao’s method of leading troops. The Jinwuwei Army were indeed envious, but the military discipline imprinted in their bones made them dare not act rashly. Even if their saliva were constantly dripping, they will not make a sound, let alone shake their will.

Xiao Tianyao saw it and nodded secretly.

The Jinwuwei Army did not fail in its intentions or its trust. They didn’t hold a grudge against him just because of a meal of meat, thinking that following him would only lead to suffering.

The Jinwuwei Army ate very fast, and within half an hour, the entire army had finished eating. At this moment, a red flame exploded in the sky. Seeing that flame, the Jinwuwei Army’s aura instantly changed. One by one, from being like a wooden stake, they changed into iron-blooded soldiers with a ruthless aura all over their bodies.

“What’s going on!” The general defending the city was startled, and some of them fell to the ground.

Tens of thousands of people looked at it with a murderous aura at the same time. This momentum and pressure were not something ordinary people can bear.
