As usual, Xiong Yong wiped the sweat from his forehead first.

Seeing that several important ministers were here and Jin Fengluan was already impatient, he considered his words and said in a deep voice:

"Reporting to your majesty, the enemy has entered the Yangma Wall, and the soldiers are now fighting with them."

After he finished speaking, all the ministers looked at each other, and a look of panic appeared on their faces.

The previous battle report said that the rebels launched the siege at the third hour, but now it is only four quarters past midnight. Only three and a half hours have passed, and they have already entered Yangma City. Isn't this a bit too fast?

Jin Fengluan in the dragon throne raised his eyebrows, and naturally noticed this problem, so he said in a deep voice:

"The Sheep and Horse Wall should be abandoned. Otherwise, we will not be able to lure the enemy deeper into our territory. But I am not saying that we should abandon the Sheep and Horse Wall tonight."

"What's going on? Those guards on the Sheep and Horse Wall didn't take my words to heart?! Huh?!" Jin Fengluan narrowed her eyes and stared at Xiong Yong.

Xiong Yong looked unhappy and said hurriedly:

"Your Majesty....We did not release the Sheep and Horse Wall too early, but the rebels attacked with artillery, and the artillery shells were so fierce that it was difficult to resist. We had no choice but to release the Sheep and Horse Wall."

Upon hearing this, Jin Fengluan couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said coldly:

"With just one sentence, it's hard to resist, they can easily let go of the Sheep Horse Wall! Then what's the point of fighting? What can we use to fight?"

"Nan Ze is one of the most important national defense weapons in Daqian. Many years ago, the world was in chaos and heroes emerged. Nan Ze relied on this unbreakable city defense to make countless enemy troops who wanted to attack retreat!"

"This is how the Daqian Dynasty will prosper in the future!"

"Now I have personally formulated a tactic to deal with the enemy. I have been working so hard for this that I have lost my appetite. I have already done this, but the people on the front line let go of the Sheep and Horse Wall so easily. Could it be that they want to make my victory plan go to waste?"

Xiong Yong shook his head and sighed:

"Your Majesty, the soldiers who came back to report the battle said that the enemy's artillery was more fierce than expected. Their artillery never stopped from the beginning to the end."

"It's not that the soldiers on the front line didn't try their best, but it was really hard to hold on. If it continued, who knows how many people would die."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jin Fengluan's face changed, and her eyes shot towards Xiong Yong like knives. Xiong Yong hurriedly lowered his head, ready to be scolded.

Unexpectedly, Jin Fengluan said coldly:

"You are the Minister of War, yet you are still making excuses for their cowardice."

"All they have to do on the front lines is follow orders, devote themselves to the battlefield, delay the enemy as much as possible, defend the Sheep and Horse Wall, and fight hard to kill the enemy and reduce the rebels' strength."

"The food and supplies they need, the replacement weapons and accessories, and the troops ready to reinforce at any time are all things I need to make decisions on without missing anything. Aren't these laborious tasks much more difficult than theirs?"

"Now that they have given up the Sheep and Horse Wall so quickly, my subsequent tactics have been affected. Why? Can I still say anything now?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiong Yong's scalp went numb and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

I have been in charge of the Ministry of War for so many years. The previous Majesty has also taken measures to command the battlefield, and I also discuss military matters with many generals on a daily basis, but what Your Majesty said now is really unheard of.

This is a bit...too ridiculous.

But of course he couldn't refute it, so he opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty is right."

"But now that the Sheep and Horse Wall has been ceded to the rebels, there is nothing we can do. Fortunately, we have withdrawn our troops to the outer city wall and the main city wall. At least for now, our casualties are not heavy."

"The rebels entered Yangma City ahead of time, and now our soldiers are also fighting hard. I expect that good news will be reported back next."

Hearing this, Jin Fengluan's expression eased slightly, and he waved his hand and said:

"Forget it. Since the Sheep and Horse Wall has been given up, there is nothing more to say."

"Now that we are at war, I won't blame them too much for this."

After hearing this, Xiong Yong thought to himself that this was true. If you still lose your temper at this time and blame the soldiers for their incompetence, then who would be willing to guard Nan Ze?

Jin Fengluan continued, "But now that the Sheep and Horse Wall has been given up, we must achieve results in the battle later."

"If the rebels break into Yangma City, they will face our siege. We must defeat them there and inflict as much damage as possible on them!"

"After the rebels suffer heavy casualties in Yangma City, we will see if they retreat. If they do, we will take back the Yangma Wall."

At this point, Jin Fengluan raised his arm and shouted: "The tactics I arranged are just as effective!"

Looking up at Jin Fengluan's excited face, Xiong Yong wiped the sweat from his cheeks and thought that if it was true, it would be great. However, the rebels had already used artillery to clear the way and entered Yangma City first. It seemed that they were not only powerful, but also extremely brave.

With such a situation, Yangma City is probably in a state of burnt outness and has become a hell.

If they want to defeat the rebels there, the soldiers on the front line will probably have to fight hard.

Although it was difficult, we still had to be optimistic. Xiong Yong said respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty has taken great pains to plan and plan for this battle. I believe that the soldiers on the front line will live up to your trust and will work together to do their utmost to keep the enemy at bay!"

Jin Fengluan nodded slightly.

"Okay! Then let's wait for the good news!" Jin Fengluan looked excited and shouted loudly.

Seeing Xiong Yong still standing on the ground, Jin Fengluan raised his eyebrows and shouted:

"I'm waiting for good news. What are you waiting for here? Why don't you go out and wait. When good news comes, report back immediately!"

-

"Oh no! These people are not afraid of death at all. More and more of them are coming in. What should we do..."

On the outer city wall tower, Jin Teng looked at the tense battlefield and kept scratching his forehead. Now he was sweating profusely and felt very uncomfortable.

Because the Sheep and Horse Wall was lost too early, too many enemy soldiers climbed up using ladders. Although our side had tried its best to attack those who climbed over the city wall, it was still difficult to counter them completely.

What made him even more anxious was the rebels in the city. As the carts and carriages entered, the enemy brought in heavy firearms. A moment ago, they had even set up some artillery and fired at the city walls.

Although he had aimed all the artillery on the city wall downwards, they were still unable to hit the enemy.

The enemy troops had gradually formed camps upstairs and downstairs, and more people were coming from behind, as if the troops and weapons were endless.

The endless stream of enemy soldiers reminded Jin Teng of a colony of ants coming out in full force. However, compared with those weak ants that could be killed by a single kick, the lethality of these enemy soldiers was far different.

"Why not retreat a little bit?" This thought suddenly popped up in Jin Teng's mind.
