Beauty and the Bodyguard

8579 Chapter 8578-

Thinking about Lin Yi’s bravery, song shaopeng couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. If Liu Ziyu was half as brave as Lin Yi, he wouldn’t be afraid of that Motley group of people!

“His Majesty’s response is already very good. Defeat is not a crime in battle. Moreover, we haven’t lost yet. There are still many cities in the Empire’s territory that are in our hands! The imperial capital is still under our feet! We can definitely turn the tide!”

Liu Ziyu nodded, but he was still a little depressed. He knew that song shaopeng was just comforting him, so he didn’t take it to heart.

The imperial capital would be completely isolated by the enemy, and the Hong Shang Empire would be defeated!

There were only 50000 soldiers left in the city. How could they defend against 500000 soldiers?

Not to mention, there were still more troops coming from behind!

If not for the fact that the imperial capital had a defensive formation as a trump card, Liu Ziyu suspected that the 50000 Garrison troops in his hands would have directly abandoned the city and surrendered!

Song shaopeng’s words were not only to comfort Liu Ziyu, but also to boost morale.

After all, Liu Ziyu was the ruler of a country. If the Emperor did not have confidence, how could the soldiers fight?

“General song, do you have the confidence to escort the retired emperor and his wife out of the imperial capital with the remaining blood spirits? There should be a chance to take advantage of the fact that the enemy has not completely surrounded the capital, right?”

Liu Ziyu changed the topic and lowered his voice.”The retired emperor and his wife are the family that cousin values the most. They must not be allowed to get into trouble!”

Song shaopeng lowered his head and didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he kept calculating the possibility of this plan.

the emperor and his wife were people that lin yi valued, and song shaopeng didn’t think there was anything wrong with sending them away.

however, after some calculations, song shaopeng found that the probability of successfully breaking through was almost zero!

if the 800 blood spirits were all in the imperial capital, song shaopeng would still have the confidence to fight.

it was a pity that he only had a hundred blood spirits left, and the rest had been scattered to support various places …

unless the commander personally led the troops to charge, it was simply a fool’s dream to break through the siege of hundreds of thousands of troops!

even though blood ghost had entered the nine-story glazed pagoda before, song shaopeng didn’t think that he had lin yi’s talent.

if lin yi was here, a hundred blood spirits would be enough.

but, if lin yi was really here, would they even need to break out?

“Your Majesty … I’m incompetent! I’m not sure if I can send the retired emperor and the others away safely!”

Song shaopeng lowered his head and bowed, looking very guilty.

At a time like this, if he couldn’t protect Lin Yi’s foster parents, he wouldn’t be able to face Lin Yi even if he died in the battlefield!

Liu Ziyu’s face darkened slightly, and he let out a long sigh.””It’s all my fault. I sent the blood spirits out in different directions. If all 800 blood spirits were here, we would have been able to break out of the encirclement.”

Back in the days, Lin Yi led eight hundred blood spirits and swept the world, invincible!

All the enemies trembled when they heard the name of the blood ghost. How mighty was that?

However, now … Liu Ziyu closed his eyes!

He also knew that only a complete blood spirit formation would be the strongest army!

However, Liu Ziyu had no other choice. The flames of war were everywhere, and any member of the blood spirit was an excellent middle-level general …

For the sake of the suffering people in the city, Liu Ziyu had no choice but to split up the blood spirit Army.

“Yu ‘er!”

Sima Yunqi’s deep voice came from the city wall.

Liu Ziyu quickly turned around and saw the retired emperor, Sima Yunqi, and su lingyue walking over together. They were stepping on the city wall.

“Imperial father, Imperial mother! Why are you guys here?”

Liu Ziyu quickly went up to him.

Sima Yunqi and his wife were originally his uncle and aunt, but because of the throne, he directly addressed them as father, Emperor and mother.

In any case, he was raised by the two of them since he was young. They were not his biological parents, but they were closer than blood relatives.

Song shaopeng also immediately came to greet the retired emperor and his wife.

sima yun’s face darkened as he waved his hand. “there’s no need to be so polite. when the country is in danger, all those false courtesy should be avoided! yu ‘er, we’re here to help defend the city!”

“just now, you said that general song will lead the blood spirit to help us break out of the siege. this is not a wise decision. i’m not talking about the success rate, but the impact on the morale of the army if we escape. have you considered this?”

“especially since general song is the only commander in chief in the imperial capital. if he leaves with us, there’s no need to fight the next war. the imperial capital will fall directly! do you want us to be the sinners of the empire?”

sima yunqi was originally rather gentle, but towards the end, his voice became stern!

This was the so-called “deep love and deep responsibility!”

Instantly, Liu Ziyu was so ashamed that his forehead was covered in sweat.

He couldn’t help but admit that Sima Yunqi was right. His knees went soft and he wanted to kneel down in front of Sima Yunqi.

Sima Yunyan was quick to react. He reached out and grabbed Liu Ziyu’s shoulder, making him unable to move.

“Stand firm! You are the Emperor of the Empire. In front of the hundreds of thousands of enemy soldiers outside the city, you must stand straight and set an example for all the soldiers!”

Sima You Yun stood up and turned around, facing the boundless Alliance army camp outside the city walls. He opened his arms and laughed,””Thieves outside the city! If you want to destroy my Hong Shang Empire, then come and attack! You don’t dare to attack even with such an advantage? you’re all cowards. Do you think you’re worthy of coveting the great Hong Shang Empire? Bah!”

“If you want to fight, then fight! If you don’t want to fight, then get lost!”

Because it was infused with the Qi of the attribute, Sima Yunqi’s voice rumbled like thunder, suppressing the shouts of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers outside the city!

all of the alliance army had heard it clearly.

now, sima yunqi’s strength had also improved by leaps and bounds. when he first met lin yi, he was still at the great circle of xuansheng training, suppressing his own training, wanting to break through after he was more complete.

after meeting lin yi, his strength was the same as the people around lin yi, rising sharply.

furthermore, with the accumulation of his previous training, sima yunqi was now a martial artist of the middle stage of earth splitting.

therefore, this shout of “get lost” was very powerful and extraordinary.

the 50,000 soldiers in the imperial capital were greatly boosted in morale, and they shouted in unison.

for a moment, it seemed as if the hong shang empire had the upper hand.

the alliance army outside the city was in an uproar. even with such a huge advantage, they were still being pointed at and scolded. their pride was hurt!

therefore, the commanders of the empires communicated with red eyes and began to attack together. they were prepared to launch a general attack on the imperial capital from four directions at the same time.

“Sima Yunqi is really overconfident! Do you think that we won’t dare to attack just because you have the great defensive formation? I originally wanted to wait a few more days to gather more troops and destroy the imperial capital in one go. Since he’s tired of living, I’ll fulfill his wish!”

The commander in charge of attacking Sima Yunqi, Liu Ziyu, and the others at the main city gate was sneering as he commanded his men to attack the city wall step by step.
