"It's not that I don't believe you." City Lord Zhu Jubo spread his hands.
"The news you brought back is really outrageous."
Listen to what this spy is saying.
In response to the changes near Kucha City, Lord Rajmaya gathered his troops and announced that it was because a group of miserable slaves wanted to cause trouble and went to suppress it.
Then Rajmaya encountered the Shu banner. A young wizard who was suspected to be a descendant of the Shu family summoned a large number of skeleton soldiers to fight for him through some unknown means.
Rajmaya led the army to attack, defeated the skeleton soldiers under the wizard, and then chased the wizard into the eternal night sky.
Unexpectedly, they were ambushed and were overwhelmed by hundreds of thousands of skeleton soldiers almost instantly. They didn't know whether they were alive or dead.
How should I put it, it’s bullshit from beginning to end.
It is very consistent with the appearance of a defeated deserter who made up lies in order to shirk responsibility.
Hearing what the city lord said, the spy couldn't help but get excited.
"City Lord, I really didn't lie!"
"There are so many skeletons!"
"They are endless!"
"I said they were in the hundreds of thousands, so maybe that was an understatement."
"If I hadn't been on the periphery and noticed something was wrong, I would have fled back immediately to report the situation."
"I'm afraid I'll be killed by those skeletons now too."
"City Lord..." The spy's eyes were full of fear.
"Sule City definitely cannot be defended, so I came back directly."
"Bikona and Rajmaya were probably submerged by that necromancer's sea of skeletons."
"The Necromancer may be marching towards us - City Lord, we have to prepare early!"
"Hey, hey, that's too much." City Lord Zhu Jubo sighed.
"I remember you weren't so thick-skinned before?"
"Why don't you even blush when you lie now?"
"City Lord!!!"
The city lord ignored the spies and gave orders to others.
"Send some more people to investigate near Shule."
Rajmaya should have suffered a defeat, but as to the extent of the losses, she certainly could not believe the spies' words.
"Make sure you find out what's going on over there."
If Rajmaya failed too miserably, he would have to reluctantly bear the heavy responsibility of saving Shule City.
He was very jealous of Shule's wealth.
At this moment, his personal guard captain hurriedly burst into the door.
He glanced at the spy who reported the news, twitched the corner of his mouth, and then cursed loudly.
"coward!"
"Lying coward!"
"Should kill!"
"Hey, there's no need to be so angry over such a trivial matter." Seeing that his personal guard captain was about to kill someone, the Lord Zhu Jubo hurriedly comforted him.
"Humph!" The guard captain was still angry.
"Hey——" City Lord Zhu Jubo continued to persuade.
"Although he exaggerated a little, but..."
"Exaggeration?" The guard captain was furious.
"He is obviously covering up the seriousness of the matter!!"
"Not only did you lie about the military situation, but you still delayed it like this!!"
"As a result, we are extremely passive now!!"
"Ah?" City Lord Zhu Jubo was stunned.
No, what does it mean to cover up the seriousness of the matter?
His guard captain was seen with cold sweat on his forehead, pointing outside and then at the floor.
At this time, City Lord Zhu Jubo discovered that the floor was shaking slightly, and at the same time, the dust on the roof beams seemed to be falling rustlingly.
"what happened!?"
He jumped up in surprise.
"He lied!" The guard captain looked at the spy bitterly.
"What kind of slow-moving skeleton with low combat power?"
"It's clearly a terrifying army of terracotta warriors and horses!"
"Now, Tang Kou has arrived outside the city!"
"..." City Lord Zhu Jubo was stunned for a moment, then jumped up and rushed to the city gate immediately.
"What are those?"
When he climbed onto the city wall, he only glanced outside the city.
His face suddenly turned pale, and his voice was slightly trembling.
Then he repeated it again.
This time, he seemed to be snarling like a pig that was caught and about to be killed.
"What are those!?"
"The one riding the horse is Tang Kou!?"
On the horizon outside the city, the sky was full of smoke and dust rising straight into the sky, seeming to completely block the sky.
Under the smoke and dust, there are countless terracotta warriors with skull faces.
Under the guidance of one red Tang flag after another——
The terracotta warriors and horses were like a sandstorm capable of swallowing up everything, rushing towards Lord Zhu Jubo.
In front of them, even the important town of Zhu Jubo is like a small boat in the tsunami...
It seemed that a wave would hit him at any time, completely destroying the boat and killing everyone.
"City Lord!" At this moment, the guard captain didn't care about his dignity anymore, and slapped City Lord Zhu Jubo twice in the face.
As a heroic warrior, he has amazing natural strength in his hands.
In an instant, Lord Zhu Jubo's face swelled up.
"City Lord!" the guard captain shouted angrily.
"The situation is urgent!"
"Please make a decision immediately!"
City Lord Zhu Jubo, who was slapped into a pig's head, calmed down at this moment.
Then grit your teeth.
"You bastard, how brave are you to lie?"
"What do you call this a mutation? This is clearly about to become a natural disaster!"
The spy looked confused.
"That's not right. I've encountered skeletons before."
"I have never seen these terracotta warriors and horses..."
"Maybe, maybe it was the new one made by the undead wizard?"
"Get lost!" City Lord Zhu Jubo didn't even want to pay attention to him——
Your damn undead came out of the ground!
Still new?
Forget it, just pretend you have never seen this stupid nephew.
"Hoo, ho-" He breathed.
"The Tang army is huge. Let me make a rough estimate. It's at least 30!"
"How could the Tang Army's wizard be so capable?"
"Have you been preparing for many years?"
But no matter what, City Lord Zhu Jubo knows...
"We alone cannot handle this as a city."
Not to mention the 30 terracotta warriors and horses, even the 30 crossbow-wielding militiamen are a force that cannot be underestimated.
What's more, there are many cavalry on the opposite side.
City Lord Zhu Jubo is not stupid. As long as he looks at the composition of the troops, he knows that if he fights hard, he will probably suffer a big loss.
"We must call for reinforcements!"
"Send letters to the surrounding cities immediately!" he ordered.
"Warriors need to be dispatched, and flying pigeons need to send messages."
“Especially it must be delivered to Khotan!”
"also……"
Lord Zhu Jubo wiped his cold sweat and said, "Go to the Sand Lizard Queen and the Lion Whisperer for help!"
"No matter what they do, I will promise them!"
"Even if they ask us to double the number of babies and slaves we pay as tribute every year!"
"Have the messenger set out immediately!"
"Immediately, immediately!"
"You must rush out before you are surrounded!"
The Sand Lizard Queen and the Lion Whisperer are both well-known and powerful wizards nearby.
Each holds a terrifying army of monsters in their hands.
If they were willing to come to help, and with reinforcements from other places, they might be able to hold on to the city.
"remember!"
"I'm looking for someone who's really smooth-talking!"
After all, even asking for help is a university question.
What if the lobbyist portrays the enemy as too weak, and the benefits promised are not enough, and they come slowly or even not at all?
And if the lobbyist portrays the enemy as too powerful, and people think that even if they come, it will not help, and they might as well not come at all, that would be terrible.
Therefore, those who go must be flexible enough.
"Yes!" City Lord Zhu Jubo's personal guard captain and subordinates took the order and left one after another, eager to find the messenger.
"Huh——" Only then did the Lord Zhu Jubo breathe a sigh of relief and prepare to organize defense.
"I have to hold on for at least a month."
He gritted his teeth secretly.
Fortunately, this task is not too difficult in the eyes of City Lord Zhu Jubo.
