Beauty and the Bodyguard

7935 Chapter 7933-the power of the devil

“Everything in the city will remain the same. The flag will be changed to that of Hongshang Commandery. When I take down the entire Shanlian Empire, I will reorganize it.”

The general’s mouth twitched a few times. He thought to himself,”this master is really arrogant. He wants to conquer the entire Shanlian Empire with just eight hundred people?”

“The mighty general Sima! Conquering the Shanlian Empire was only a matter of time! Do you need us to send some soldiers to accompany you?”

He didn’t want to believe it, but the general didn’t want to be Lin Yi’s enemy, so he was very friendly. He wanted Lin Yi to take all his men away.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi didn’t care about his men at all. He just waved his hand and didn’t say anything else. He led his men and sped through the city, rushing out from the other side of the gate.

As Lin Yi said, he was just passing by and took down a city!

“General, is there anything wrong with what we’re doing?”

The general climbed up the wall and watched as Lin Yi and the 800 guards left. His vice general beside him whispered,”The Empire is powerful. If they pursue this matter, we’ll probably be executed!”

“Powerful? Hehehe!”

The general let out a sharp laugh, which was full of ridicule,””Even Grand Tutor Yuwen Wuji is finished, what other trump cards does the Emperor have?”

“Small countries compete with soldiers, horses, and provisions, while big countries compete with high-end martial strength! The most powerful Grand Tutor, Yuwen Wuji, had been killed. The Shanlian Empire had lost! Why should we, the low-level soldiers, try to block a chariot with our Mantis arms?”

“It’s over …”

The Deputy general listened to his commander’s sigh and remained silent. After a long time, he let out a long sigh and looked up at the vast sky. The Empire was connected to the mountains. The sky was about to change!

After Lin Yi left the city with his men, the general ordered the entire city to change their flags and leave the Shanlian Empire, becoming the territory of Hongshang Commandery. At the same time, he also passed on the news of Yuwen Wuji, Shan Pao, and Shan Ji’s death.

Of course, the most important thing was the news of Yuwen Wuji’s death. The other two were not important at all and were just mentioned in passing.

Perhaps Sante had really lost the hearts of the people, or perhaps there were too many smart people in the Shanlian Empire, but Lin Yi’s next trip was surprisingly smooth.

He had thought that he would have to slaughter his way through hundreds of obstacles and kill millions of soldiers before he could reach the imperial capital.

Wherever Lin Yi went, all the cities fell to him!

There was no need to say anything. Even before they got close to the city, the guards inside came out with their guards, asking to surrender.

He had no choice but to accept!

If Lin Yi didn’t accept, they’d raise their weapons … And put them to their necks!

They were from the Shanlian Empire, but they had to say that they were already from Hongshang Commandery. Lin Yi couldn’t force them to die, could he?

What kind of people were these from Hongshang Commandery?!

There was an entire conferred Kingdom in the Dragon state between Hongshang Commandery and this place!

Lin Yi didn’t know what to say. He didn’t think too much about it when he first took over the first city. He thought that it was good to give Hongshang Commandery an entire land here, as it would be a bridgehead for him to take over the entire Shanlian Empire.

He didn’t expect that the bridgehead would be directly connected to a large area and enter the fast lane of annexing the mountain and the Empire.

In comparison, the mainland of Hongshang Commandery, which was a tiny place, was now more like an insignificant flying land …

No matter what, Lin Yi had a smooth journey with the guards unit, and they arrived near the capital easily and happily.

He didn’t even have the chance to draw his saber, let alone fight.

The tall walls of the imperial capital were already in sight, and Liu Ziyu approached Lin Yi with a complicated expression.”Cousin Zhong da, do you think the people from the imperial capital would also open their cities and surrender?”

The 800 blood spirits went on an expedition to the Shanlian Empire and fought countless battles, killing countless enemies. This was the correct way to start the script. It felt a little strange to come all the way here without shedding any blood!

Even with Liu Ziyu’s personality, he could not help but look forward to a real battle!

However, if they really fought, there might be casualties, so Liu Ziyu’s mood was a little complicated.

“I don’t think so. After all, the imperial capital is the core of the Shanlian Empire. The number of soldiers guarding the imperial capital is not comparable to those in other places, be it in terms of quantity or quality.”

Lin Yi rubbed his chin, unsure.”With the city in his hands, the elite soldiers, and the countless experts, the Emperor of the Shanlian Empire should at least try to win, right?”

Furthermore, the people of the imperial capital, be it soldiers or citizens, should be more loyal to the Emperor than in other places and would not easily surrender.

As they spoke, the cavalrymen were still advancing quickly, and they soon arrived at the city gate.

As expected, the gates of the imperial capital were tightly shut, and the walls were lined with weapons, cold arrows pointed at Lin Yi and the others.

“Haha, looks like they really don’t plan on surrendering!”

Liu Ziyu grinned. It was hard to tell whether he was feeling regretful or happy, or both.”Cousin Zhong da, are we going to fight a siege battle?”

Lin Yi didn’t say anything, because the imperial capital had already responded. A row of arrows flew through the air and landed neatly about twenty steps in front of the guards. This was the imperial capital’s support.

As long as the guards unit entered the line of arrows, they would be hit by a storm of arrows.

After the arrows stopped the formation, the Imperial City’s Gate opened wide, and a team of infantrymen in khaki-colored armor rushed out neatly and quickly. They formed a formation outside the gate, and the total number of people was about five thousand.

“Ha … It seems like the Emperor of the Shanlian Empire is not satisfied with defending the city. He wants to have a direct battle with us first!”

Lin Yi shook his head with a smile, not too concerned about the five thousand men.”Ziyu, what do you think of the strength of these people?”

“The enemy is advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. Their movements are Swift and orderly, and their formation is tight. They are a strong Army!”

Liu Ziyu’s expression turned serious as he commented,””I can’t judge their combat strength for now, but they should be a very powerful team!”

There was something Liu Ziyu didn’t say-in his heart, the strongest army was the personal guard unit behind them, or rather, the personal guard unit led by Lin Yi!

His vision was no longer the same as before, so he could easily see that the yellow-armored team was very strong!

If Lin Yi wasn’t here, and he was the only one leading the guards unit to attack, victory aside, there would be losses!

“It’s indeed a strong Army. Look at the flag they’re waving!”

He lifted his chin slightly, signaling for Liu Ziyu to look at the flag that wasn’t fully opened yet.

It was a breezy day, so the war flags drooped. Only when the flag bearers ran would they slightly stretch.

Liu Ziyu had also noticed it, but he had not seen it clearly before.
