The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

All the celebration came to an abrupt end at that moment.

On the walls of Yunji City, it was as if the heavens had pressed the pause button.

Even Ren Tianye was somewhat incredulous, asking, "What did you say?"

"General, another 50,000 Imperial Guards are on their way. They're not far from Yunji City; they'll be there in no time!"

Ren Tianye immediately looked into the distance, and at the limit of his vision, he could vaguely see dust rising in the distance, indicating that a large army was approaching.

They came at an extremely fast speed.

This phenomenon was not only visible to Ren Tianye, but also to many soldiers on the city wall. In fact, some of them had intuitively sensed the intimidating power of the 50,000-strong army.

Fifty thousand elite imperial guards!

Adding these 20,000 to the present, that makes a total of 70,000 Imperial Guards!

This is an army comparable in size to the Red Beacon Army, and its combat effectiveness, even if not as good as the Red Beacon Army, is not much worse.

After all, they were the Imperial Guards of the Great Yu Dynasty.

Judging from the name, it must be the most elite army in the entire Great Yu Dynasty!

and so……

Seventy thousand imperial guards besieged their Yunji City!

The soldiers' excitement was instantly dampened, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over them, and many even became fearful and worried.

They had only a little over 7,000 men, while the Imperial Guards numbered 70,000!

A troop ratio of ten to one.

Can Yunji City withstand it?

Ren Tianye had also wondered: Could Yunji City withstand it?

Although Yunji City had a great geographical advantage and was impregnable by Zhan Shubai, and its soldiers were well-trained, the enemy still numbered 70,000!

Seventy thousand Imperial Guards!

Seventy thousand of the most elite imperial guards of the Great Yu Dynasty!

Yunji City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with only one city wall in front, which means they are facing 70,000 imperial guards directly!

Can those seven thousand men hold them off?

But immediately, the panic and worry in Ren Tianye's heart were replaced by an extremely strong anger!

Just because of the young master's domineering words and actions, 70,000 imperial guards are to be sent to attack the city. They will become the casualties of the young master Lu Jun's show-off behavior!

This female-oriented world is outrageous!

They're not leaving any way for normal people to survive!

Then let's fight to the death!

The worst that can happen is death!

Ren Tianye turned around, facing most of the soldiers on the city wall, and shouted loudly, "Gentlemen, can you all see clearly now?"

"Now you see the true colors of the imperial court, don't you?"

"Our Yunji City is still under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and is nominally under its control, yet 70,000 imperial guards dared to besiege it so brazenly."

"The imperial court doesn't care about our lives at all."

"Is such a court still worth being loyal to?"

Almost at the same moment Ren Tianye finished speaking, a deafening roar erupted: "It's not worth it!"

"Not worth it!"

"Not worth it!"

"The court is filled with treacherous officials, and the empress is muddleheaded and confused. First, she executed 70,000 Red Beacon Army soldiers, and then she wanted to occupy my Yunji City. The world is in deep trouble."

Ren Tianye's voice rang out again, each word distinct: "This kind of court is not worth it."

"But Cloudridge City is our home!"

"Without a home, not only do we have no way to survive, but our parents, siblings, and children also have no way to survive!"

"My lords, are you willing to fight alongside me...?"

"Fight to the death, never retreat!"

The crowd on Yunji City had been encouraged by Ren Tianye's words, which dispelled their fear and made them excited and passionate.

The court was corrupt, the empress was incompetent, and treacherous officials held power.

They were like meat on a chopping board.

Let them cut me!

But they refused!

They must live!

They shouted together, "Fight to the death, we will not retreat!"

"Fight to the death, never retreat!"

"Fight to the death, never retreat!"

"Good!" Ren Tianye shouted, "Then let's beat these arrogant Imperial Guards to a pulp!"

He immediately gave the order: "Sun Xiang!"

"Your subordinate is here!"

"Mobilize all the soldiers in the inner camp, along with the Eight Hundred Army, and send them all to the city. This battle is a matter of life and death."

"We may fall, but..."

"Never back down!"

Sun Xiang loudly acknowledged the order: "Yes!"

They didn't even bother to mobilize troops from the inner camp; instead, they directly ordered the war drums to be beaten.

After the three drumbeats, the other soldiers in Yunji City surged forward, their eyes filled with anger, holding sharp blades, vowing to live and die with Yunji City!

This is one of the advantages of Cloud Ridge City.

There's only one city wall. No need to allocate troops. Just keep the mobile support team, and everyone go up to the city wall and get to work!

Just as preparations were completed here, the 50,000 Imperial Guards arrived at the foot of the city wall.

Ren Tianye could see with his own eyes that the morale of the 20,000 Imperial Guards who had just suffered a setback in their siege was rapidly rising.

He immediately realized that the person in charge of these 50,000 imperial guards must be a highly respected general in the army.

Under the command of this general, the 50,000 Imperial Guards had not yet come to a complete stop when they immediately launched an attack. The 20,000 Imperial Guards who had just retreated also roared and attacked again.

This time they brought siege equipment, and their offensive became even more ferocious.

The brief respite of calm at the foot of Yunji City was broken by the earth-shattering battle cries once again.

The soldiers of Yunji City immediately launched their fiercest counterattack.

With powerful crossbows set up, they aimed to attack the gaps in the front ranks of the Imperial Guards.

The catapult, positioned high above, hurled down huge stones and burning oil all at once.

The target was the area where the Imperial Guards were concentrated, as well as the pontoon bridges and battering rams they had built.

The rolling stones and logs that had been prepared on the city wall were also thrown down one after another.

Not only did they smash the Imperial Guards who rushed nearby into a bloody pulp.

Some of the rolling stones could even take advantage of the terrain and roll wildly down the main road outside Cloudridge City.

Even with such a tight and lethal defense, many of the 70,000-strong Imperial Guard still dared to charge forward without fear of death.

Using the ladder they had just brought, they climbed up frantically.

But Zhan Shubai's prior preparations were far too extensive.

The boiling hot oil was poured directly into the pan.

Supported by rockets.

The flames surged on the city walls, and the imperial guards became sources of fire, rolling down the ladders.

Even so, some of the bravest imperial guards still charged up to the city walls; however, these soldiers of Yunji City were truly well-trained.

They then used halberds and hook-and-sickle spears to thrust, stab, and pull.

They overthrew those Imperial Guards soldiers who were eager to be the first to scale the walls!

come down!

After this series of operations, the short-swordsmen hiding in the crenellations of the city wall were rendered somewhat useless, because basically no stragglers were able to get onto the city wall by chance.

As a result, the battle was unsurprisingly extremely unbalanced from the very beginning, with the soldiers of Yunji City holding an absolute advantage.

However, the Imperial Guards did not give up.

Even though the corpses piled up like mountains beneath Yunji City, the Imperial Guards still launched wave after wave of attacks.

He then followed as a military supervisor!

This stalemate lasted for two full hours, until dusk, with both sides still locked in a stalemate. The Imperial Guards were unable to advance an inch, and the soldiers of Yunji City paid a heavy price!

At this moment, torches had been lit below the city, and under the bright red light, a golden-armored general appeared proudly, surrounded by a crowd.

With a flick of his whip, the Imperial Guards' offensive quickly slowed down.

He then ordered his men to shout, "In all my years of fighting campaigns, I have never seen anyone dare to resist me for so long!"

"Kid, you're the first one."

"Very well, you have successfully enraged this general!"

"Now, I order you to get down here, bind yourself, leave the city, and respectfully deliver my nephew. Then I might consider leaving you a whole corpse!"

"Otherwise... this general won't let you die so easily in Yunji City!"
