Chapter 198 The Opening Of A Big Play

Ever since the Heavenly Hunt Camp was ambushed by Big Yellow City, Mu Ji's temper changed and he no longer sent troops to harass him.

However, the gloomy clouds in Big Yellow City did not dissipate because of this. Instead, they had a tendency to become even more intense.

Even from a distance of several kilometers, one could see that the Mu Clan Army barracks were frequently dispatched towards the army. In just two days, there were about 200,000 Great Xia soldiers stationed in the barracks. That was why the already vast barracks had nearly doubled in size.

All of this could not be concealed from the eyes and ears of the people of Big Yellow City. Or perhaps, Mu Ji had no intention of concealing it from them at all.

He was sending a message to Big Yellow City. The war was about to begin!

The purpose of doing so was very simple. First, it was to shake the morale of the soldiers of Big Yellow City. Second, it was to show Big Yellow City his determination to take down Big Yellow City.

As a result, the atmosphere in Big Yellow City became solemn, and a murderous aura spread across the city.

Xu Han had also seen the difference between the so-called Hundred Battles Elite Soldiers and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals he had brought with him.

The battle was imminent. Not only did the hundred thousand troops in Lin Shou's hands not slack off, they were instead actively preparing for the battle. On the other hand, the thirty thousand troops that Xu Han had brought along, together with the twenty thousand troops that the Imperial Court had obtained from somewhere, were in danger. Not to mention that they were expected to kill their enemies, it was estimated that if the Mu Clan army really broke through the city walls, the first to surrender would be these people.

Whether it was Lin Shou or Xu Han, they naturally did not have the mood to train these low-grade goods at this juncture. They could only hand over logistics and some tasks that did not require confrontation with the enemy.

…

The great battle finally came.

On the sixth night of Xu Han's arrival in Big Yellow City.

After clearing up for a few days, dark clouds suddenly covered the sky above Big Yellow City. Autumn rains continued to fall, watering the city walls of Big Yellow City.

On a rainy night like this.

A long horn came from the direction of the Muji barracks.

The hoarse sound pierced through the dense night sky, passing through layers of rain curtains and landing on the city walls of Big Yellow City.

"Enemy attack!!!"

It was unknown who was the first to react and let out such a cry. As a result, beacon flames lit up in Big Yellow City in the night and billowing wolf smoke rose up from the ground.

…

The stability of the past few days allowed Xu Han to spend some time cultivating his own cultivation technique in the tent. On this side, he circulated the true energy in his body in accordance with the Great Evolution Sword Technique for a whole cycle. Shocked cries rang out from the city wall. Xu Han knew that Mu Ji must have launched an attack.

This time, he didn't think it would be a feint.

Without caring about anything else, he picked up the Xing Tian Sword and walked out of the tent. The first scene he saw was the soldiers quickly gathering towards Big Yellow City. However, there was a strange figure mixed within these armor warriors.

However, compared to Su Mu'an, who was one head shorter than everyone else, the little fellow carried his sword and saber on his back, as if he wanted to rush up the city wall to kill the enemy with everyone else.

" Su Mu'an!" Xu Han was anxious. In this battle, it was not a child's turn to live. Even if Su Mu'an went there, a single stream of arrows would be enough to take his life.

Xu Han did not dare to let him take this risk. He let out a loud shout at that time and stopped the boy who was following the crowd.

When the little fellow heard this, he also felt dizzy. He stood in the crowd and looked around. After a while, he discovered Xu Han not far away.

"Prefecture Master! An enemy is coming, let's go to the city wall to help!" Su Mu'an did not have the slightest bit of self-awareness as a burden. He ran to Xu Han and actually urged him.

Seeing him like this, Xu Han's head suddenly grew big.

He wanted to use some sort of excuse to comfort Su Mu'an, so that this little fellow wouldn't cause trouble for him at this moment. However, his mind couldn't turn around because of the war that could happen at any time in the city wall. Just as he was feeling annoyed, the corner of his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of Qin Keqing, who had just walked out of the tent and was a little flustered.

Qin Keqing's cultivation was not good. She had only reached the Second Realm Pill Sun Realm. Naturally, the war in Big Yellow City could not help, but her medical skills were not bad. Therefore, she took the initiative to cooperate with the doctors in Big Yellow City to take care of the wounded.

"Keqing!" Seeing Qin Keqing, Xu Han immediately seemed to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw. He shouted at her and pulled Su Mu'an over.

"Nah, your mission is to protect Big Sister Keqing. Remember, you will never leave." Xu Han pointed at Qin Keqing and said.

"Ah?" However, the boy who was thinking about killing the enemy was obviously not satisfied with this arrangement. He was about to refute something.

"Physicians are an extremely important part of the army. Physicians can cure many soldiers who don't need to die if they are alive. Therefore, protecting Big Sister Keqing is a great help to Big Yellow City. This is much more meaningful than killing a few emperors." Xu Han would not give him a chance to refute. He opened his mouth and threw a large set of theories on Su Mu'an 's face. Hearing this, the youth, who was only twelve or thirteen years old, was confused for a moment.

"Is that so?" In the end, Su Mu'an asked hesitantly, unable to understand what Xu Han had said.

"Of course." Xu Han replied confidently.

Only then did Su Mu'an feel relieved to stay behind. After finishing all this, Xu Han raised his head and looked at Qin Keqing apologetically. After leaving the Linglong Pavilion, there were too many trivial matters. Xu Han rarely had time to spend alone with Qin Keqing.

And now was obviously not the right time. At that time, he said in a deep voice, "Watch this little fellow carefully. I'm going to the city wall."

After Xu Han finished speaking, he turned around and was about to walk towards the city wall.

At that time, the girl opened her mouth to say something, but seeing that Xu Han had already run far away, she was stunned. When she reached her mouth, her words were much smaller. "Young Master Xu … you should be careful too …"

She said this, but the originally quiet voice was drowned in the noisy crowd. Only Su Mu'an, who was beside him, heard it clearly.

The little fellow looked at the distant Xu Han, and then at the lonely-looking girl beside him. His eyes rolled as if he understood something, but he didn't seem to understand anything.

…

When Xu Han climbed up the mountain, the people of Big Yellow City had been waiting for him.

Rows of solemn-looking men stood at the city gates with their hands clasped together. The arrows were already strung and their bows were drawn full. They were aiming at the enemy troops that were getting closer and closer below the city gates with their eyes as bright as torches.

Lin Shou's expression was heavy.

Hou Ling, Zhou Zhang, and the others were holding swords and sabers. Even Ye Hongjian and Fang Ziyu were watching the scene below the city with rapt attention.

Kill!

At this moment, a furious roar erupted from the Muji army. The Great Xia soldiers at the front let out a heaven-shaking furious roar. A loud sound wave attacked, accompanied by surging killing intent.

The night was dense. Their black armor almost merged with the night. The unsheathed saber halberd in their hands flashed with bone-chilling cold light in the dense darkness. It was like a ghost that had crawled out of hell. Finally, it stretched out its claws towards Big Yellow City.

It rained a little harder.

The raindrops landed on the city walls of Big Yellow City with a ticking sound.

The archers of Big Yellow City held the bow and arrow in their hands tightly like sculptures.

The gigantic Lin flag fluttered on the city walls, sounding in the night rain and autumn wind.

The enemy was getting closer. Xu Han could even clearly feel the walls of Big Yellow City trembling slightly under the sound of their neat and heavy footsteps.

Boom!

Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the horizon.

The sound was like a floral drum opening in a theater, the tune of a Qin opera bangzi.

With a loud noise, Great Xia's army began to charge.

"Fire the arrow!"

Lin Shou let out a furious roar.

As a result, the silver waterfall poured down.

After passing through the layers of rain curtains, the pitch-black night was torn apart.

At this moment, the grand opening of the show finally arrived.
