Chapter 282: War Is About to Start, and Accidents Continue

In a short period of time, nine of the three ministers had secretly pledged allegiance to Gao Qiang.

Among the twenty-seven scholar-bureaucrats under him, fifteen were secretly loyal.

From a place where Gongmen Quan could not see, waves of whispers came.

The eyes of many of the soldiers have changed, and this change has even spread all the way to the Forbidden Army.

But Gongmen Quan's attention was still on Gao Qiang.

"How about returning His Majesty and I give you a chance to leave?"

"Just a chance to leave?"

Gao Qiang did not respond.

The opportunity to leave was not to let him go, so he wouldn't be able to detect such a stupid language trap.

"Then it seems there's nothing to talk about."

Gongmen Quan put away the compass in his hand and waved his hand in the direction of the Demon Suppression Tower.

"attack!"

Lucia looked at the all-powerful figure of Gongmen Quan in the distance.

"What a nasty guy."

A hundred years ago, the first Sangong had the same attitude when he attacked the Yuchen Empire.

And she lost that war.

Not only was his mother brutally murdered, but he was also locked in the Demon Suppression Tower for eternity.

She was imprisoned in the Demon Suppression Tower and suffered hundreds of years of pain.

This hatred is even far better than Jiuluo killing her once.

"What a pity."

Looking at her chubby hands, Lucia felt helpless.

If she still has the body of a giant dragon, if she still retains her original power.

Even though all her people had been lost, she still had the courage to fight with the three princes on her own.

Instead of like now...

Lucia looked at an undead lord who picked her up, his head covered with black lines.

Is this treating her like a child?

She is older than this undead before and after his death, isn't he?

Just when Lucia was about to lose her temper, the undead lords who had fallen to the ground suddenly made some commotion.

The attack on Gongmenquan has already begun.

He did not choose to let the infantry take the lead in mincing meat with the undead lord.

Instead, various heavy equipment was moved out.

When Wu Mei saw one of the instruments with dozens of round holes, her expression changed several times.

It was a swarm of mutant equipment, a hive cannon developed by the people led by Chief Ma Guan Hongcheng.

The hive cannon can provide long-range and large-scale explosive strikes. Its main purpose is to deal with large-scale infantry regiments.

Obviously, it is perfect for this kind of equipment to be brought out to deal with the undead lord who has only bones left in his body.

Whoosh whoosh——

Along with the soft blast of honeycomb cannons, countless rays of fire rose into the sky like fire dragons.

Brilliant arcs are drawn in the sky, like meteors streaking across the sky, and like rainbows hanging in the sky.

But halfway through this arc, many people began to feel that something was wrong.

This landing spot doesn’t seem right, right?

Gao Qiang raised his head and stared at the firing trajectory of the hive cannon.

Then he raised his head little by little until he looked vertically into the sky, witnessing thousands of rockets flying over his head with tail flames.

Boom boom boom——

The explosions were like thunder, one after another, as if there was no end.

But this position was eight hundred meters behind Gao Qiang.

The field was silent for a moment, and then Gongmenquan looked towards the artillery array with a livid face.

He shouted angrily: "What on earth are you doing with this round of shelling!"

"The accuracy of the honeycomb cannon is very poor. It is understandable that there is a slight error."

Some artillerymen tried to give a reasonable explanation for their shelling.

However, with this explanation, Gongmenquan became even more angry.

Then he stretched out two fingers to pinch a wisp of air and glared at the artillery line.

"Is this what you call a small error, hitting 800 meters away?"

"Are you questioning this Situ's IQ, or are you questioning Da Sima's equipment?"

It was the first time in my life that I saw Da Situ angry. The artillerymen were all silent, with their heads lowered like ostriches, daring not to respond.

One of the hundreds of officials stood up and slightly bowed his hand towards Gongmen Quan.

"Master Situ, there is no need to be angry. It seems that everyone is also concerned about your majesty's safety."

Gongmenquan glanced at the speaker.

Lang Zhongling Huang Yingzong, in this world of war games, native human beings have nothing to do with the Wuji Alliance.

Suddenly Gongmen Quan had a guess in his mind.

After all, this is an era where monarchy reigns supreme.

In the eyes of Lang Zhongling, the safety of Wu Mei, the Great Martial Empress, was above all else, and it was not something difficult to understand.

and......

Lang Zhongling was in charge of the palace guards. It was difficult to say that the shelling that had just missed the target eight hundred meters away was not due to his handiwork.

From beginning to end, Gongmenquan never doubted Gao Qiang.

Thinking that he had figured out the whole story, Gongmenquan snorted coldly.

"This will never happen again!"

"As for your majesty, you don't have to worry. I, Situ, have my own way to rescue him."

Hearing this, Huang Yingzong seemed to be relieved.

"Then the officer can rest assured."

After saying that, he handed over his hand and retreated.

But Gongmenquan didn't notice at all, something strange flashed in Huang Yingzong's eyes.

He had already taken the lead in making a stumbling block.

Gongmenquan probably won't give him another chance.

Sure enough.

In order to avoid any more trouble, Gongmenquan did not command the artillery to attack, but ordered the imperial army to press forward.

After all, in Gongmenquan's eyes, this round of artillery attack was just to put pressure on the enemy, and it would not be a big deal even if it was not effective.

The difference in combat power between the two sides was already huge.

The imperial guards in the Dawu Palace were all selected warriors, and the armor they wore was carefully made by the best craftsmen.

And what did Gao Qiang have?

He had nothing at all after sneaking into the imperial city!

Could he count on those guys who had been locked up for hundreds of years and whose bodies were covered with nothing but bones and rags?

Don't be kidding!

As Gongmenquan thought, the undead lords were actually a little nervous in the face of the imperial army's massive pressure.

Most of them were forced by the Supreme to escape from the Demon Suppression Tower.

If they could escape from the imperial city, everything would be fine.

But if they couldn't escape from the imperial city, they would not have the confidence to defeat the imperial army.

However, just when the two sides were about to come into contact.

A guard suddenly sniffed violently.

"What a smell, so fragrant!"

Thick smoke rose outside the forbidden area.

The sound of gongs and drums calling for assembly sounded outside the forbidden area.

It seemed to say that things had come to this point, so let's eat first.

Gongmenquan looked at the guards who had stopped fighting before the battle, and his eyes twitched.

"Which lord can explain to me what this means?"

They were almost touching the face of the Undead Lord, but a few wisps of smoke from the back forced the guards back.

What, is that smoke a beacon fire?

At this time, another person walked out of the array of officials.

"I may know what's going on."
