My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 192 The quarrying battle

He even forgot to say goodbye and thank you to Gu Dayong.

He jogged across the horse path and headed towards the south gate to join the guards in uniform.

"Selfish! Abandoning the king and father and running away! There is no shame at all! He should be killed!"

Gu Dayong looked at Wang Tang's hurried away figure, as if looking at a dead person.

It's just that this person is still somewhat useful. At least he can help the imperial guards who carry the emperor's decree to quietly open Nanjing's heavily guarded city gates in broad daylight and sneak into the city quietly.

May your father's kindness be given to the world.

Save the common people in the world from the sea of ​​suffering.

Yu Dayou looked at the soldiers of the three armies in front of him and tried their best to die for the arrival of the emperor and the prosperous age, and prayed silently in his heart.

...

Those creatures in the sea saw the sharks falling in pieces in front of them, but they still seemed to be far away from conquering the quarry.

Quarry City is still strong, even though waves are coming one after another, it still stands proudly and is indestructible.

Finally they couldn't bear it any longer.

A mountain made of water suddenly appeared in the river in front of them. The huge hateful thing at the bottom of the river tried to break through the blockade of many resistances and jump out of the water.

People could vaguely see the world-devouring giant snake swimming on the bottom of the sea, its golden scales shining with golden light, and the water surface looking sparkling.

This was Zhu Houcong's old rival in Dengzhou, the golden python that commanded the entire East China Sea Sea Clan.

"Emperor Ming Ting - take your army and leave Caishi. I will guarantee your safety with my life..."

It suddenly emerged from the water, pulled out a series of water curtains, and fell heavily to the sea. Seeing Zhu Houcong, who was watching the Yangtze River Estuary with his eyes closed at the top of the city, eyeing the sea monster in Jinling, he said in a hoarse and rich voice. .

"We have already made too many sacrifices for each other! Do you want to sacrifice the innocent lives of tens of thousands of soldiers for an empty city?"

Hearing this, Zhu Houcong opened his eyes.

He looked at the dragons in front of him, as if to verify that they really had the strength to do what they promised, swallowing all the more than [-] soldiers who had quarried the stone.

One giant sea monster after another rose from the water.

Black turtle, white shark, giant python, octopus...

Strangely shaped and extremely ferocious, they are all huge creatures in the sea that can stir up wind and rain.

"Quarrying is just an empty city. You have worked so hard to get it. What do you want?"

From the corner of his eye, Zhu Houcong saw Zhu Changning not far away, who was secretly flying over the quarry on a fire phoenix and giving a signal to the imperial army in the city.

The Imperial Guards understood and took advantage of the negotiation between the two generals to quickly use giant elephants to pull huge iron boxes out of the city. Countless craftsmen immediately attached themselves to these mountain-like containers and disassembled the huge parts, just like thousands of previous ones. Start assembling as you have practiced hundreds of times.

"This is not a problem that you should worry about. Emperor Ming Ting, as long as you give up Caishi City, both the Queen Mother Zhang and the killing of my people can be written off."

Jiaolong said in a low voice, obviously it had a very high status among the sea clan kings, and many sea clansmen behind him immediately echoed in unison.

"Hand over the quarry and let us go—"

"Leave this place, or we will raze all the villages along the river to the ground."

Listening to the wild shouts of the sea monsters in front of them, it seemed that they were sure that the Ming army in front of them would definitely accept the request.

but--

Zhu Houcong responded with contempt to this threat.These sea tribes seem to be united, but in reality they each have evil intentions. If they were really so united, they would have swarmed forward and captured the city even though a few sea monsters were seriously injured.

There are many divisions among human beings based on different skin colors and regions, and some even have unending blood feuds with each other. What's more, these sea tribes in the sea not only have huge differences in appearance, but some of them are each other's hunters and food.

How can they really be as united as they appear outside.

"What is there under Jinling City that you and others are so eager to get, even if we spare more than [-] Ming troops to get it?"

"If the price of safely evacuating the quarrying is to abandon Jinling, the southern capital of the empire, I am afraid that no one in the entire Ming Dynasty will be able to bear the responsibility for the fall of Nanjing, and no one will dare to agree to your proposal——"

Zhu Houcong shook his head.

"We will not destroy Jinling, you can rest assured-"

The golden python replied in a deep voice. It stared at the Emperor Ming in front of it. At the beginning, it was also as high-spirited as him, sitting on the river and facing the enemy——

And just as it finished speaking, the giant octopus sea monster behind it, which had been very silent, suddenly spoke.

"We, the sea tribe, are very honest and will not break the promises made long ago. Unlike you humans, who are cunning, cunning and treacherous -"

The giant creature looked at Zhu Houcong with dense eyes on its limbs. It was unclear whether the words in his mouth were simply mocking the ugliness of human beings, or whether they were deliberate reminders.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Houcong's eyes flashed.

Is there a covenant already——

With whom?Southern gentry?Some cultist?Or is it simply some existence from Jinling?
Zhu Houcong knew that he would find the answer one day. Soon, as long as he repels these sea tribes and destroys this ritual that makes the method of resolution excited.

Presumably without the need to investigate on his own, those black hands hiding in the dark will take the initiative to appear in front of Zhu Houcong and seek asylum.

He looked at the giant sea monsters in front of him and shook his head.

"You are not of my race and cannot be trusted!"

"If we want to seize the quarry, we must turn the sea of ​​blood into huge waves and flood this city!"

Hearing this, the dragon in front of him was furious, but when he looked at the heroic king in front of him, there was a hint of complexity in his eyes.

"You will regret it! When the quarry is filled with corpses and the blood fills the river and flows away, you will know how stupid your idea today will be."

The dragon in front of him roared into the sky, setting off huge waves, and escaped into the water again.

The shark priests sang songs praising the sea god again. The sharks from all over the world gathered in one place, and accompanied by a certain person who was voted out by these sea kings, as the vanguard to test the Emperor Ming Ting in front of him, his face was extremely ugly. The huge turtle jumped towards the quarry city in front of them.

Under the city, the soldiers of the Ming army faced a huge sea monster whose body was pitch black, whose eyes were like crystal gems. The tortoise shell on its back was covered with strange lines, and the top was covered with hill-like barbs.

Holding back the fear in his heart, he stabilized his line amidst the scoldings of the officers who were also panicking but still maintained their composure on the surface, and prepared to deal with the sharks coming towards them following the turtles.

Zhu Houcong was still observing the thing near Jinling, looking for the best time to take action.

Naturally, the turtle in front of him cannot be left alone.

then--

"Cosmic Armor! Fusion!"

"Monster! Eat my Titan Impact Fist!"

Zhu Houcong's face was filled with black lines as he listened to the occasional convulsions and nonsense from a certain imperial princess beside him.
