Chapter 594: Yongxing City
Three days later, on the sea surface east of Ryukyu Island, rows of warships were sailing toward them.
For an army of two hundred thousand, along with the warhorses they were riding, the number of warships required was not a small amount.
One could see that the sea surface was covered with dense warships, and their number reached more than two thousand.
And on the leading warship, the figures of Lü Bu, Guo Jia, Zhang Sanfeng, and others were standing on the deck.
Seeing that they were about to land, Lü Bu shouted to the four Shenwu Legion generals, including Gao Shun, with a grave expression:
"Gao Shun, Wei Xu, Hou Cheng, Song Xian."
Upon hearing this, the four of them felt their bodies tremble, and they cupped their fists toward Lü Bu, shouting in response:
"This subordinate is here!"
"The army is about to land. You must lead your respective subordinates to land quickly. After the vanguard troops land, pay attention to maintaining vigilance."
"This subordinate obeys the order!"
Immediately, the warships accelerated and sailed rapidly toward the shore.
Because Yongxing City, the closest to this coastline, was more than thirty miles away, Lü Bu and the others landed successfully without encountering any obstruction.
Immediately, the two hundred thousand Shenwu Army soldiers assembled and marched toward Yongxing City in a mighty force.
"Look, what is that!"
On the city tower of Yongxing City, a Sui Kingdom garrison soldier suddenly widened his eyes, pointed into the distance, and said with a trembling voice.
"I say, you brat, why are you going crazy all of a sudden? There is nothing here!"
The garrison soldier beside him, hearing his words, said with a smile, somewhat dismissively.
"That's right, Old Wang, I say, you brat, did you go to the brothel to drink flower wine last night? You still haven't woken up yet, damn it!"
"Hahahaha..."
For a time, everyone around him laughed lewdly.
But at this moment, Old Wang was already trembling all over, trying his best to suppress the fear in his heart, and roared loudly:
"Enemy attack! There is an enemy attack!"
Only then did the crowd react and hurriedly looked in the direction Old Wang was pointing.
One could see that on the horizon in the distance, a large amount of dust was being kicked up, and the ground was even trembling slightly.
Before long, a black mass of cavalry was galloping toward Yongxing City.
In the middle was a large banner with a red background and black Chinese characters, and on both sides of this banner were banners of various surnames.
The Sui Kingdom garrison soldiers who saw this scene clearly were immediately terrified out of their wits.
Stationed here on Ryukyu Island, when had they ever seen such a scene?
"Quick, close the city gate! Close the city gate!"
"Quick, go and report to General Yu Hai, a large army is attacking Yongxing City!"
For a time, the entire Yongxing City tower was shrouded in an atmosphere of fear.
The garrison soldiers at the city gate below immediately began to close the city gate.
And the garrison soldiers on the city tower quickly ran to notify the Yongxing City defender, Yu Hai.
Others gripped their weapons tightly and stared fixedly at the galloping army.
The two hundred thousand Shenwu Army soldiers stopped steadily at a distance of one hundred miles from Yongxing City.
Seeing this scene, the pupils of the Sui Kingdom garrison soldiers on the city tower shrank.
To be able to stop so steadily at such high speed was something they had never heard of.
Not to mention that it was an army of two hundred thousand, and their movements were so neat and uniform.
And at the same time, the Yongxing City defender, Yu Hai, also received the news from the messenger soldier.
Upon hearing the news of an enemy attack, he immediately rushed to the city tower.
When he arrived at the city tower, he happened to see this spectacular scene.
He knew that this was definitely an elite army, a true battle-hardened force.
The soaring murderous aura made him feel palpitations even from a distance of a hundred paces.
Looking at the Yongxing City in front of him, Lü Bu curled his lips slightly.
This Yongxing City was not even as big as a county seat of the Great Han; it was just a small city that could accommodate more than a hundred thousand people.
For such a city, for them, it would only take one Spirit Stone Cannon shot to break the city.
And at the same time, Lü Bu also discovered Yu Hai on the city tower.
"Innate Realm Third Heaven, this strength is a bit weak!"
"It seems that no matter which world it is, the control over martial arts cultivation methods is very strict."
"Unlike my Great Han, as long as they are my Great Han subjects, everyone can practice martial arts!"
Feeling the martial arts cultivation of the Sui Kingdom defender Yu Hai on the city tower, Lü Bu could not help but sigh in his heart.
And those Sui Kingdom soldiers, just as Liu Bian and the others analyzed, were ordinary soldiers without any cultivation.
Their strength did not even reach that of a third-rate martial general.
Such strength was a great piece of good news for them.
After sizing them up, Lü Bu urged his warhorse forward and shouted coldly to Yu Hai:
"Defender in the city, listen up! Do you dare to come out of the city and fight with this General!"
Lü Bu's voice was mixed with the spiritual power of the Martial King realm, and this voice was heard clearly by all the soldiers and civilians in the entire Yongxing City.
At this moment, Yu Hai, upon hearing Lü Bu's voice, saw his eyes shrink suddenly.
He could not quite see through Lü Bu's strength, but to be able to transmit his voice to the entire Yongxing City, his cultivation was definitely above his own.
Moreover, the opponent's army alone was nearly two hundred thousand, while their Yongxing City only had five thousand garrison soldiers.
As long as the opponent started to attack the city, Yongxing City would definitely not be able to hold.
It was just that what he was more puzzled about was how this large army appeared and which force they belonged to.
For the Central Plains, Ryukyu Island had always been a land of uncivilized barbarians, and it was impossible for such a powerful army to exist.
However, it was too late to think about these things now; he still had to figure out who the opponent was.
Thinking of this, Yu Hai immediately shouted loudly to Lü Bu below:
"Who are you people, daring to invade my Great Sui? If you are sensible, retreat quickly, otherwise, when our dynasty finds out, we will definitely make you pay!"
Hearing Yu Hai's threat, Lü Bu shouted disdainfully:
"Just based on your Great Sui, you still cannot do anything to this General."
"If it weren't for the fact that we are all Han people, this General would have already ordered the army to attack the city."
"This General will only give you one quarter of an hour. If you do not surrender, do not blame this General for being ruthless!"
After speaking, Lü Bu turned around and returned to the army formation, and began to arrange for the army to surround Yongxing City.
Seeing this scene, Yu Hai also knew that the opponent had come prepared.
"General, the opponent has a full army of more than two hundred thousand, and we only have five thousand people. What should we do!"
The deputy general beside Yu Hai, Lin Tao, had a look of fear on his face and asked Yu Hai anxiously.
Hearing Lin Tao's words, many soldiers looked at Yu Hai.
"The enemy army is powerful, we cannot fight them head-on."
"Moreover, Yongxing City is just a small city, it cannot defend against the opponent's attack at all."
"Therefore, this General has decided to abandon the city and break out, and seek help from the commandery city of Ryukyu."
"Listening to the opponent's tone, they are also Han people, they will not harm the commoners in the city, so we do not need to be troubled!" ===== CHAPTER 595 =====
