Chapter 136: The Imperial City Has Been Destroyed, Should We Just Surrender?

"Your Majesty, Liu Fu has already taken over the four walls of Baiyu City, and the prefect of Baiyu City, Keyan, has also surrendered to Liu Fu and is now heading straight for the capital!"

"Your Majesty, the situation is critical. This old minister begs Your Majesty to immediately mobilize troops to fight back, and at the same time avenge the great grudge of the old emperor's grave being desecrated!"

"Your Majesty, we plead with your lives, for we face a formidable enemy. We beg Your Majesty to swiftly protect our Great Jin and fight against Liu Fu!"

…………

Upon hearing that Liu Fu was about to arrive, Wanyan Xi was filled with mixed emotions and didn't know how to react.

If there were a cigarette in front of him now, and Wanyan Xi knew how to smoke it...

He would definitely light this cigarette, take a deep drag, and then look calmly yet helplessly into the distance, lost in thought, so that he could temporarily forget his troubles in this brief moment of emptiness.

Then exhale forcefully, letting out a long breath...

Of course, there was no smoke in front of Wanyan Xi now, so he could only look at the distant sky and sigh.

Even the sky at this moment could not bring him peace.

Because very soon, just as Wanyan Xi was sighing and letting his mind wander, he saw a huge creature in the sky, resembling a tiger, flapping its wings that blotted out the sun, flying straight towards the depths of the imperial city, heading directly towards the location of the imperial palace.

Having already heard many descriptions of Liu Fu, Wanyan Xi, though he had never met Liu Fu in person, clearly knew that the person who had come was Liu Fu.

Because in the entire world, there is only one who can ride on the back of the mythical beast Qiongqi and make these giant beasts, whose every move shakes the earth, submit to him.

That is—Liu Fu!

Wanyan Xi was truly at his wit's end.

If we don't fight, we'll lose face.

Let's fight, we definitely can't win.

After all, the Grand Tutor and the Grand General had set a trap with 150,000 troops in advance. Despite having all the advantages of timing, location, and popular support, they still lost 20,000 elite Jin soldiers, resulting in a major defeat.

Faced with Liu Fu's four strange beasts surrounding him at the same time, Wanyan Xi suddenly didn't want to be emperor anymore.

Even if one is an emperor with three palaces, six courtyards, seventy-two concubines, plus other beautiful women and ladies-in-waiting, with three thousand beauties in the harem, one can decide the life and death of others with a single word, possessing the greatest power under heaven.

But now, when facing Liu Fu and the four strange beasts, these things suddenly don't seem so appealing anymore.

If it weren't for saving face, Wanyan Xi would have loved to speak politely to Liu Fu right now, invite him into the palace, and try every means to appease him and make peace, hoping to turn hostility into friendship.

But these methods were clearly not feasible, as the civil and military officials were all watching, and Wanyan Xi was a man who cared a great deal about his reputation.

"well!"

With a sigh, Wanyan Xi had no choice but to grit his teeth and order the Imperial Guards and the soldiers of the capital to deal with the giant beast and Liu Fu.

Who would have thought that the walls of the Later Jin capital were twelve meters thick and an astonishing fifty-four meters high, making it an impregnable defensive fortress that was almost impossible to conquer. If the enemy came, it would be as if an insurmountable barrier had been created in front of them. It was enough to withstand a siege of 300,000 troops for one or two years without breaking through. It was so strong and unbreakable.

However, when the giant beast arrived, all of this became useless.

"Boom!"

Xingqi swung his spiked club hard, immediately creating a crack in the south gate of the Later Jin capital.

The giant hammer in Xing Jiu's hand was far more terrifying than the spiked club. It was arguably the strongest in terms of breaking through solid walls among the three Vajras. With a single, powerful blow, it smashed a large hole in the twelve-meter-thick city wall.

The three giant dogs worked together like a super-powered version of a husky destroying a house, tearing a huge hole in the capital of the Later Jin dynasty in the blink of an eye.

If Liu Fu's animal breeding ranch hadn't been so overwhelmed with the sheer number of walls, he really wouldn't have been willing to let these three enormous creatures destroy such a perfect defensive wall. He would have surely taken over all four walls before the Vajras even had a chance to act.

"Boom..."

Where had the people of the Later Jin ever seen such terrifying power?

They immediately breached the sturdy city defenses, creating a huge hole. Bricks and stones flew everywhere, a truly horrifying scene.

But then, something even more horrifying happened!

The city wall, which was almost as tall as Xingqi, couldn't stop Xingqi's huge body at all. He simply leaped into the city.

What is an impregnable fortress for ordinary people is nothing more than a small stone obstacle about the same size as himself to Xingqi.

As soon as it leaped into the city, Xingqi's two huge feet immediately crushed the Later Jin city patrol offices and defense command offices stationed on both sides to pieces.

"Boom!"

Another spiked club swung across, smashing the plaque on the archway, which was originally the signboard at the south gate of the Later Jin Dynasty, which was personally inscribed by Wanyan Xi's father when he was emperor.

That's not all.

The broken archway, propelled by the thunderous force of the spiked club in Xing Qi's hand, was sent flying over a hundred meters away, crashing heavily onto a central avenue and creating a huge crater in the ground of the magnificent main road of the Later Jin capital.

Before the crowd could even react in shock, the other two Vajras also leaped into the city.

Just as the archers were drawing their bows and firing, the Qiongqi in the air opened its mouth and unleashed a burst of flame, like a super flamethrower, igniting the bodies of the archers clad in leather armor.

Although these leather armors are lightweight, they will immediately catch fire when exposed to fire, and the burning speed is extremely fast. If you are too late to take them off, the leather armor will deform under the high temperature and stick to your body like a dog skin plaster, making it impossible to remove. At this time, the only hope is to roll on the ground in the hope of extinguishing the fire.

But once leather armor catches fire, it's very difficult to extinguish, even if you roll around on the ground, and it will eventually lead to one of two outcomes.

Either the leather armor would set the entire body ablaze, burning the Jin soldiers alive, or the Jin soldiers would roll on the ground and eventually extinguish the leather armor. However, even though the leather armor was extinguished, the high temperature from the burning would still pierce through the woman and even penetrate her internal organs. Burning through flesh and blood was a minor matter; causing permanent and irreversible damage was a much more troublesome and unbearable situation.

Regardless of the outcome, Qiongqi's fire breath was perfectly timed.

After Liu Fu and Qiongqi unleashed their power, the twenty-meter-long black-green dragon also appeared.

At the same time, tigers, lions, and gorillas poured in, bringing the total number of beasts to over ten thousand. This was only a portion of what Liu Fu had brought; many more gorillas were still working as laborers in Liaodong, helping Zhuge Liang with infrastructure construction.

Seeing Liu Fu summon such a large army of ferocious beasts, the Later Jin side panicked.

Still dare to resist?

Resist my ass!

Why don't we just vote for it?
