Chapter 401: The Strongest Worker Candidate, The Camp’s Shock (2)
Perhaps only such a benevolent person was a qualified superior, unlike Emperor Wei Wu…
Xiao Jianghe sighed, and a sentence flashed through his mind.?If the king treats me well, I will repay him!
“Your Highness, what should I do next?” Xiao Jianghe asked solemnly.
Previously, he had only submitted to Zhou Shu because of the situation. But now, he wholeheartedly acknowledged Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu hadn’t expected that a Cosmic Bangle would have such a winning effect.
The Cosmic Bangle was indeed nothing to him. After developing it, it was not too difficult to forge. He could easily forge it, so he naturally didn’t think it was very precious.
But in the eyes of others, a Cosmic Bangle was even more precious than a heaven-grade weapon!
A weapon that could store things, this was something that only existed in myth and legend.
At least Xiao Jianghe never thought before that there was such a weapon in the world!
“Thanks to Emperor Wei Wu, the Demon Realm army that came to this world this time is much stronger than the Ten Nations’ armies,” Zhou Shu said. “The armies of all the nations have suffered heavy casualties. Now I have built a camp here to gather all nations’ armies and prepare to fight against the Demon Realm army.
“Now that you’ve joined us, our odds have increased.”
......
Xiao Jianghe’s face turned a little red. Although the responsibility lay with Emperor Wei Wu, and they had only followed orders, they were not completely innocent.
“We, the criminal army, will not let the Demon Realm army take half a step into the Ten Nations even if we die!” Xiao Jianghe said solemnly.
“Don’t talk about dying.” Zhou Shu shook his head. The Demon Realm army had most likely already crossed this world and invaded the Ten Nations Continent…
If they really wanted to pursue responsibility, all of Great Wei should be destroyed!
“Since you’ve come to your senses, you’re one of us. I don’t like to see my own people sacrifice.”
Zhou Shu continued, “Our goal is to eliminate all the invaders. As for us, the fewer deaths, the better. It’s best if none of us die.
“What I hope is that by the time you restore the reputation of Great Wei, these thirty thousand people will still be around.”
The more workers, the better,?Zhou Shu thought.
Xiao Jianghe’s eyes were red, including the Great Wei soldiers who heard what Zhou Shu said.
“We will follow Your Highness to the death!” Xiao Jianghe shouted.
The 30,000 sinners shouted in unison, “We pledge our lives to follow Your Highness!”
Their shouts filled the air.
Xiao Jianghe became more and more submissive. Only such a person who valued the lives of soldiers so much was worthy of following!
Unlike Emperor Wei Wu, whose soldiers were tools that he could sacrifice at will!
“I said, don’t talk about dying.” Zhou Shu slapped his forehead. “Let’s go. Don’t attract the Demon Realm army with all this commotion!”
He stood up to leave.
Xiao Jianghe waved his hand, and the 30,000 soldiers followed his orders. Everyone carried a portion of the ore and followed.
…
It had been a few days since Zhou Shu left the camp. Meng Bai, Yin Wuyou, and the others were all looking around worriedly.
Especially Meng Bai. He knew what Zhou Shu had gone to do. Although he trusted Zhou Shu’s strength, Emperor Wei Wu had planned for many years. Who knew if he had hidden strength?
What if Zhou Shu failed miserably?
Meng Bai was very worried, but he couldn’t say anything.
He had promised Zhou Shu that he wouldn’t leak anything about Emperor Wei Wu. Even if he didn’t, he wouldn’t tell anyone easily.
Emperor Wei Wu colluded with the Demon Realm and helped the Demon Realm directly enter the Ten Nations Continent. If this was made public, the morale of the army would probably be in chaos.
On the Ten Nations Continent, there were everyone’s parents, wives, children, and friends.
Meng Bai was standing on the wall, thinking about the next step of the camp’s plan. Suddenly, a scout rushed up to the city wall and shouted, “Oh no, Great General, there’s a huge army coming from the front!”
“A huge army? The Demon Realm army?”
Zhou Shu wasn’t in the camp. If the Demon Realm army suddenly attacked, they would definitely not be able to stop them.
There were nearly a hundred first-rank demonic beasts in the Demon Realm’s army!
“It’s not the Demon Realm army. Judging from their attire, they should be Great Wei soldiers!” the scout said.
“Great Wei soldiers?” Meng Bai was even more shocked. Zhou Shu had left the camp to find Emperor Wei Wu.
Could Zhou Shu have failed?
If so, it would definitely be a disaster for the camp!
Without Zhou Shu, it was hard to say if they could stop Great Wei, but they were absolutely helpless against the Demon Realm army!
Meng Bai quickly calmed down and asked in a low voice, “How many of them are there?”
“At least twenty to thirty thousand people!” the scout said. “They’re moving fast. They will arrive in half a day at most.”
Meng Bai narrowed his eyes. “Men! Call General Wang Mu and General Tang Chengshi here!”
With that, he launched himself into the air.
Once high in the air, Meng Bai looked in the direction the scout had indicated.
In the distance, a large group of figures was quickly approaching the camp. They were indeed wearing the clothes of Great Wei’s soldiers!
This discovery made Meng Bai’s heart sink.?Did the King of the South really lose to Emperor Wei Wu?
At this moment, Wang Mu and Tang Chengshi had already arrived beside him.
The three first-rank commanders all looked at the figures in the distance.
“Great Wei soldiers?” Wang Mu and Great Wei had fought many times, and he was extremely familiar with the Great Wei soldiers. “More than twenty thousand, almost thirty thousand!”
Wang Mu’s expression was solemn. “This is trouble.”
The people in their camp had already been sent out to gather the remaining troops of the various nations. Now, only a few thousand people remained in the camp.
Without Zhou Shu, the three of them were not too confident in facing an enemy several times their number.
“We can hold the camp for now,” Tang Chengshi said. “Our men will be able to rush back in a few days. At that time, we might be able to destroy these thirty thousand Great Wei soldiers!”
Wang Mu said solemnly, “We can’t let our guard down. We know nothing about this Great Wei army. We don’t know who the commander is or how many first-rank martial artists there are in the army. I suggest we send a scout before they reach camp.”
Tang Chengshi looked at Wang Mu. “Do you want to do it, or should I?”
This camp was a branch of the Great Xia’s Huaxia Pavilion. Meng Bai was considered half a master, so he naturally couldn’t simply leave the camp.
In that case, only Wang Mu and Tang Chengshi could leave the camp to test the waters.
The two of them didn’t mind. They were already furious that Great Wei had betrayed the human race.
“Wait!” Meng Bai suddenly said. “Look, don’t you think the man at the front of the army looks familiar?”
Meng Bai pointed in the direction of the army.
Wang Mu and Tang Chengshi looked over. Even though they were first-rank martial artists with extraordinary eyesight, the army was as small as ants, and they couldn’t see the face clearly.
Wang Mu looked at it for a while and said hesitantly, “That man couldn’t be His Highness, could he?”
There were two his highnesses in the camp. One was Zhou Shu, and the other was Cao Chenyang from Great Liang.
But as long as his highness was mentioned, it would definitely be referring to Zhou Shu. Even Cao Chenyang thought so.
“It seems… sort of,” Tang Chengshi said. “Did King Zhou join Great Wei?”
“Bullshit!” Meng Bai and Wang Mu scolded at the same time.
“There’s no way His Highness would join Great Wei,” Meng Bai said in a low voice. “Then, there is only one possibility…”
He and Wang Mu looked at each other and saw the shock and disbelief in each other’s eyes.
“His Highness subdued the Great Wei army?” Wang Mu said slowly.
Tang Chengshi’s eyes widened. He had subdued 30,000 Great Wei soldiers alone?
Was that possible…?
