The Empress's Gigolo Chapter 453 This Scene is Too Beautiful to Even Imagine

"Your Majesty, please give the order so that I can send my troops to destroy Wu City. I will capture that bunch of troublemakers," Xi Wanya implored the empress for her permission.

Ren Baqian glanced at him before looking back at the city wall again. No matter how he looked at the military strengths of both parties, they were on the losing end!

After the battle with the empress, the other party was only left with 11 experts. Among them, the strongest was Qingyun Sword, who was severely injured. Chang Tian, who had channelled all his strength into his pike, died after executing that technique. At present, they only had a strength of nine and a half experts since Qingyun Sword wasn't at full strength.

It wasn't a big deal for Lin Qiaole and the other two aboriginal Spirit Wheel experts to each take on three enemy experts.

If the empress were to personally undertake this task, even though she only had 30 percent of her strength left, she would still be able to suppress the higher level experts.

However, among the lower level soldiers, even though there were over 2,000 Man Wheel aboriginal soldiers, each of the other party's 500 Earth Wheel experts would be able to take on five aboriginals.

Not to mention the others.

"I'll be standing here to see how you guys destroy the city," the empress said indifferently. She then turned to the side and continued, "All of you should go too!"

Although these dozens of guards who came with Xi Wanya weren't numerous, they could play a large role in the absence of a nucleus.

Ren Baqian had already made up his mind to destroy the city. He didn't say anything further and carefully observed the situation.

Following Xi Wanya's command, over 2,000 soldiers got down from their mounts and dashed toward Wu City.

When they arrived at the city gate of Wu City, the soldiers in the front row stopped at a position three meters right below the wall. They turned around, placed their hands on their heads with their palms facing upward, and acted like a stepladder. The people behind them soared into the air and stepped on their palms. Along with a push from the people below, they leaped to a height of about eight meters. Some of them instantly flipped over the wall while others used the top of the wall as a stepping stone to get over.

They jumped over the city wall that was eight meters tall.

After all, Wu City wasn't a huge city, and its walls were only eight meters tall. It was generally sufficient to obstruct an ordinary person, but obstructing a Man Wheel expert was a fantasy.

The aboriginals didn't require any equipment to destroy a city. They could easily make their way over the eight meter city wall.

If the city wall was too high, then they would have to rely on their experts to break down the city gates with brute force.

If it were in the past, following the assault on the city wall, their next move would be to massacre everyone in the city.

However, at this time, there was a group of Earth Wheel experts guarding the top of the city wall.

Almost half of the first batch of aboriginal soldiers who jumped over the wall got their heads cut off as they crashed to the ground.

Dozens of defenders jumped on top of the city wall and waved their knives. Immediately, miserable screams could be heard right before the aboriginal soldiers fell to the ground.

Relying on these dozens of vanguard soldiers, a second group of aboriginal soldiers jumped on top of the city wall like grasshoppers. They stood firm even though there were many Earth Wheel experts defending.

As the subsequent batches of soldiers jumped on top of the city wall, blood-curdling screams and war cries rang out. Blood was also seen spilling from the top of the city wall.

Ren Baqian carefully observed the situation. The result was actually much better than what he had expected it to be.

Although these aboriginal soldiers had attained the level of Four-way Heaven, which was equivalent to the Man Wheel level, they were much stronger than a Man Wheel expert. In addition, the top of the city wall was narrow, so the range of movement wasn't large. In this aspect, the tactics used by the aboriginals were more advantageous.

Some of the Earth Wheel experts at the top of the wall were either still in the initial stage or weren't good at controlling their strength, but were nimble and agile. On the other hand, confronting five to six elite opponents who had great rapport with one another in such a confined area actually caused the aboriginals to be deadlocked, so much so that they were at a disadvantage.

In particular, many aboriginal warriors were the type that would endure an attack in order to counter attack. Their style was similar to kamikaze tactics. The Earth Wheel experts who lived like princes didn't possess this kind of bravery, and it was something unacceptable to them.

If those Earth Wheel experts were to fight against the empress, then they would naturally fight to the death. However, all of them would hesitate over dying while fighting against these ordinary soldiers. On the unforgiving battlefield where everyone was cruel, everything could change in just a split second.

Of course, this was a rare occurence on the battlefield. There were still many areas where the aboriginal soldiers were incapable of defeating a group of five to six Earth Wheel experts that had great rapport with one another. From time to time, an aboriginal crashed to the ground.

Even if they were brave enough and had worked well with one another, they were only at the Man Wheel level. The differences between these Man Wheel experts and the Earth Wheel experts were too huge, so they could only fight with their lives on the line.

Thankfully, dozens of bodyguards were present to forcibly brace the situation. The aboriginal army had roughly possessed 25 percent of the area. In this region, they managed to withstand the combined attack of the enemy experts and over 1,000 supporting disciples.

At the base of the city wall, there were three different battle groups led by Lin Qiaole and the other two Spirit Wheel experts from the aboriginal army. The situation here was the complete opposite of the situation on top of the city wall.

In the distance, Xi Wanya simply stood straight and looked at the battle on top of the city wall without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, what do you think?" Ren Baqian turned and asked the empress after observing for a long time. The empress was frowning and kept silent.

Both parties fought a tough battle and only withdrew their soldiers in the evening. Only half of their soldiers managed to withdraw.

No less than 1,000 people had shed their blood in this small city.

Out of the 40 bodyguards, only slightly more than ten of them returned. Furthermore, they were all injured because they had endured most of the pressure.

The other party's losses weren't small either. More than half of the disciples from the different sects as well as the Earth Wheel experts had suffered casualties.

Both sides could be considered losers.

Afterward, the aboriginals returned to the bottom of Mount Wu. Ren Baqian, who had observed the battle for the entire day, then said to the empress, "Your Majesty, even though we are good at one-on-one fights, our current opponents are practitioners who have traveled the world and certainly excel at this. Although we can restrict their movements at the top of the city wall, we are also restricting ourselves in a fixed area and using all our strength to risk our lives. This is actually very unfavorable for us."

"Do you have any good ideas?" The empress looked up at him, hoping that he would say, "Yes, I have one."

"Your Majesty, I have an idea," Ren Baqian said.

"Speak!" The empress felt much better after hearing Ren Baqian say this.

"Throw hundreds of smoke grenades into the city and force them out. With our battle formation, the other party will not be our match at all," Ren Baqian replied.

Dozens of smoke grenades seemed insufficient for a city like Wu City. If he was able to obtain a few hundred grenades, however, he could probably cause the entire city to be infused with "fragrance," refreshing people's minds with keen interest and pleasure while leaving them with a memorable experience.

The empress clenched her fist and was itching to approve his plan.

Even though this was a tactic, she actually didn't want to employ it. Since the previous time, that stench had caused her to have a lingering fear. If hundreds of smoke grenades were thrown into Wu City, just the thought of it was sufficient to reveal how merciless it would be. Not to mention that Wu City would become uninhabitable, even the areas outside the city would become uninhabitable too.

At that time, a group of experts with a suffocating stench would make their way out to kill them. This scene was too beautiful to even imagine, so much so that she could even smell the stench. To some degree, she didn't dare to imagine anymore.

The empress shouted for Xi Wanya and asked, "Is it possible to destroy this city?"

Xi Wanya nodded in response and said, "I'll definitely destroy this city, sever the heads of these rebels, and present them in front of Your Majesty."

Ren Baqian looked at Xi Wanya. Judging from today's battle situation, Xi Wanya would only barely be able to end the battle in a mutual destruction at best. Furthermore, as time passed, the opponent's strength remained. Where did he gain his confidence in destroying the city?

"Your Majesty, the winged cavalry is rushing here after reorganizing themselves and taking a good rest." Before Ren Baqian could even ask anything, Xi Wanya had already provided the answer.

Only then was Ren Baqian reminded of the winged cavalry. Previously, before he set off for Tianjing Basin, the winged cavalry had already returned to Dayao.

The winged cavalry warriors were the empress's personal bodyguards. Wherever the empress went, they would be by her side. Now that she was in the south, the winged cavalry would naturally make their way here.

"How long will they take?" Upon hearing that her elite subordinates were rushing over, she immediately put her worries aside.

"When I set off, the winged cavalry was about six days away from Gu City. By my estimate, it will take them another three days at most. The winged cavalry will definitely arrive by then," Xi Wanya replied.

"Let's wait for another three days," the empress said. "When the winged cavalry arrives in three days, we will destroy the city in one go."
