Chapter 353 Extra Chapter: Old Acquaintances in Huangyan
The battle of Huangyan Beast City dragged on for a while, but the two armies from the Northern Wilderness Xiao Kingdom and the Far North Sea did not suffer significant losses.
After their initial defeat, the warriors of Huangyan Beast City chose to defend the city and remain inside.
Shi Panxing recognized the city lord of Huangyan Beast City and planned to wage a war of attrition against them.
After all, the two armies surrounding the city numbered over 100,000.
With an army of 100,000, the daily food rations alone would consume a great deal.
Xiao Kingdom's supplies for attacking Huangyan Beast City were insufficient, making it unsuitable for a protracted war. Chang Tianchen's objective from the beginning was clear: a swift victory.
If Huangyan Beast City waits for reinforcements, then their inevitable demise will be sealed.
This time, Shi Panxing led his team directly ashore and stopped Chang Tianchen, who wanted to launch a strong attack, saying, "A strong attack is the worst possible strategy and will inevitably cause more casualties."
Chang Tianchen glared at him and said, "You think you're so smart? Do you think I don't know that a direct assault is difficult and results in huge casualties?"
"Since you think there's a better solution, tell me about it."
Shi Panxing asked, "Can I borrow the map that Ling Chengen gave you?"
Chang Tianchen turned around to take out the map, pushed it on the table, and made way for the head of the table, saying, "Look at it as you like, but you can't damage it or take it away."
Shi Panxing ignored his displeasure, thanked him politely, and then carefully examined the map before saying, "Huangyan Beast City is a city located in an extremely arid region. In such an environment, water is their lifeline."
Chang Tianchen said, "I've thought about this before. If we cut off their water supply, they'll run out of water in a few days, and there will definitely be unrest in the city. But this method won't work. There are no rivers flowing through Huangyan Beast City; they mainly get their water from underground rivers."
"We know very little about Huangyan Beast City. We have no idea where the underground rivers are located or how many there are outside the city. If we know nothing, how can we possibly stop them?"
Shi Panxing raised his eyebrows and said, "I know."
Chang Tianchen originally wanted to continue mocking him, but suddenly realized what he had said and said seriously, "You know? How is that possible? Weren't your superpowers sealed back in Huangyan Beast City?"
Shi Panxing remained calm, but his eyes were dark: "Without using my special abilities, I can find the locations of all the underground rivers beneath Huangyan Beast City."
"Lend me a hundred of you high-ranking earth-type warriors."
Chang Tianchen's expression immediately became indescribable, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Do you really think I'm a wholesaler of high-level warriors?"
Shi Panxing said confidently, "You definitely have those that are at the twelfth rank or higher."
Chang Tianchen: "..."
"Okay, okay, a hundred of them will be enough to find the location of the underground river and block it, right?"
Shi Panxing nodded and said, "Actually, if it's just about blocking the underground river, I can do it by myself."
"But considering that the army will need to use Huangyan Beast City as a base after we take it, these underground rivers cannot be completely destroyed, otherwise this place will become a dead zone."
"Your earth-type warriors will move and harden the soil and stones. After we take the city, we can remove these fillings and then we can use water normally in the city."
……
As the underground river was filled in, the water wells inside Huangyan Beast City slowly dried up, plunging the entire city into a water shortage crisis.
Chang Tianchen led his men to surround the southern and western parts of Huangyan Beast City, while the sea tribe warriors surrounded the northern and eastern parts, with the eastern part being the key defensive point.
Although the east side is barren land, once you cross the barren land, you can quickly reach the harbor.
The area receives abundant rainfall, and there are countless rivers, both large and small.
Therefore, we must be wary of the possibility that the orcs inside the city might break out to the east.
On the third day of the water shortage, riots broke out in the city.
Beast King City and the other beast cities did not send any personnel to provide support.
Upon hearing this news, Chang Tianchen was overjoyed.
Things always turn out in unexpected ways.
The shortsightedness of the Namwon royal family and nobles was laid bare under these circumstances.
On the fifth day of the water shortage, Huangyan Beast City killed a group of slaves who tried to break through the city gates to escape.
In the past, such bloody and brutal methods would have been enough to make those slaves behave again.
However, the limited amount of water available in the city was entirely supplied to the upper nobility. The lives of slaves were as lowly as weeds, and they had to beg and plead to get even a sip of water.
But even nobles lack water, and simply don't have enough to give to these weeds that have never even caught their eye before.
As a result, riots became more and more frequent, and in order to survive, many young orcs who still had the strength to fight banded together.
From blindly rushing towards the city gate at the beginning, to eventually learning to think and analyze when the defenses were weak and which guards could be the key points for breakthrough...
On the seventh day of the water shortage, the gates of Huangyan Beast City were opened from the inside.
Chang Tianchen and Shi Panxing had long ago ordered people to monitor the city's movements day and night from above.
Therefore, on the seventh day of the uprising, the two had already assembled their troops and stationed them outside the north and south gates of Huangyan Beast City.
Chang Tianchen held his halberd, the tip of which tapped irritably on the dry, dusty ground. He turned to Wu Zhuo beside him and said, "Is the water I asked you to prepare ready?"
Wu Zhuo nodded and said, "It's ready, and we've sent enough people to guard it."
“However…” He looked at Chang Tianchen with concern, “Do we really need to incorporate those slaves who rushed out? We cut off the city’s water supply, making us the main culprits for their water shortage. Many of their family members and friends may have died because of this. Even if we provide them with water, they will not be grateful to us. They may even turn around and bite us after we replenish their water supply.”
"At that time, we might be attacked from both sides."
Chang Tianchen sneered, "So what if we replenish water? You still don't understand the ways of these nobles in Nanyuan. Those slaves who survived are incredibly tough. They were able to break through because of their overwhelming numbers. After all, the noble population is far smaller than the slave population. These slaves fought for their lives, hoping for a sliver of hope, but that was all they got."
"They have been starving for a long time, and their physical fitness and combat effectiveness are far below normal levels."
"Our warriors in the Northern Wilderness are physically stronger than them, and now they are at their best."
"This obvious disadvantage is something that anyone who isn't stupid can see."
"Naturally, they wouldn't have managed to escape with their lives only to turn back and die."
After the rioting slaves rushed out of Huangyan Beast City, Chang Tianchen did not allow his army to engage them head-on. Instead, he led his troops to charge in only after most of the slaves had escaped.
There are some very obvious differences between slaves and nobles.
Their physical appearance and mental state are completely different.
Secondly, nobles would brand slaves, usually in a conspicuous location, to make them easy to distinguish.
Most of the marks are tattoos, which are applied to the face, head, neck, shoulders, or arms.
Only a very small number of nobles would use branding irons to burn uniquely shaped scars on slaves.
Chang Tianchen had made this clear to his soldiers long ago.
The slaves of Huangyan Beast City will not attack them unless they are attacked first.
But if a slave intends to attack, there is no need to show mercy.
After all, training a Xiao Kingdom warrior requires a great deal of effort and sacrifice.
The Xiao Kingdom's army entered the city before the Hai tribe. Perhaps considering that Suoyuan lay to the north, the rioting slaves mainly broke through from the south gate.
There are no city gates on the east and west sides.
Even if someone could scale the city walls and escape, the number wouldn't be very large.
Chang Tianchen rode on the back of Sang Ting, a beastman of the Xiama tribe, holding a heavy halberd in one hand. Wherever he went, people and birds scattered.
Sang Ting was very fast and rushed to the front of the entry team.
Wu Zhu flapped her wings and followed behind him, flying on either side of Chang Tianchen. She said nervously, "Boss Chang, how many times has Sister En told you not to lead the charge! Why can't you ever remember?"
With a swing of his halberd in his left hand, Chang Tianchen beheaded a noble guard who was about to cut off his horse's leg. Feeling the hot wind and sand blowing in his face, he said in high spirits, "Have you ever heard the saying? A bad soldier is a bad soldier, but a bad general makes a bad army."
"So how can I hide behind the army and wait for news?!"
"Wu Zhuo, you just wait and see, I don't have any cowardly soldiers under my command."
Wu Zhuo thought to himself: I know you're arrogant and cocky, but if you're so capable, go and act tough in front of Sister En! What are you doing, being so arrogant in front of a little follower like me?!
If Sister En were on the front lines, she would definitely knock his head off!
……
After Huangyan Beast City was completely occupied, the nobles who did not take advantage of the chaos to escape were all killed on the spot for resisting, and the rest were all imprisoned.
Chang Tianchen also immediately began searching for his target among these people.
One of them is someone who has mastered the technology of temperature-locking rings.
He went to the place where the nobles were imprisoned and unexpectedly found several familiar faces.
Chang Tianchen stared at the female huddled in the corner, her face mostly hidden by her dirty, messy hair, his brows furrowing slightly, and he didn't look away for a long time.
When Shi Panxing entered the dungeon, following his gaze, she exclaimed in surprise, "You're interested in females like this? Their faces are a mess, covered in tattoos. Are they slaves? Why are they locked up here?"
Chang Tianchen turned around and cursed at him, "Get lost, my eyes aren't blind yet!"
"I just felt like I recognized her."
Chang Tianchen waved his hand, signaling the guards beside him to bring the person out.
As soon as the guard approached, he suddenly lost consciousness, standing there blankly with his pupils unable to focus.
Chang Tianchen immediately drew his weapon, flames erupting from his right palm. He used his left hand, holding the halberd, to block Shi Panxing, pushing him back. His face was grim as he said, "It really is you!"
The female who had been choking the guard stopped pretending and casually brushed the hair away from her face, revealing an extremely eerie face. Compared to when she was in the Northern Wilderness, she had become much thinner.
The woman's black fingertips transformed into sharp limbs. These seemingly inconspicuous limbs were no less powerful than any weapon, easily severing the head of an adult beastman.
She gave a cold laugh and said, "I didn't expect you to find out after all."
"Hey Chang, are you just bored?"
Fu Tong originally wanted to pretend to be a slave to get away with it, but unfortunately, she was reported by a slave she had abused before.
After fleeing from the Northern Wilderness to Huangyan Beast City, she found a noble partner through her own means. She thought that there was an insurmountable chasm between the Northern Wilderness and the Southern Plains, and that Ling Chengen and her warriors would never appear again.
So she resumed her life of ordering servants around and lording it over everyone.
Unexpectedly, these people landed in Nanyuan without saying a word and attacked again.
Upon hearing Fu Tong's voice, Chang Tianchen immediately sneered, "Whether I'm free or not is none of your business!"
"During the last raid on the Daxing tribe, we couldn't find you. We thought you had hidden in some remote corner of the southwestern mountains, but we never expected you to have returned to the Southern Plains..."
"It's like searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly."
"I searched for you all over the northern wilderness but couldn't find you. I thought you had died quietly!"
"Today I've finally got my chance to avenge her."
He had always known that Fu Tong had injured Ling Chengen, but he was forced to guard the army and could not leave the camp without permission, so he had no way to deal with this vicious fellow.
The woman sneered, "You bunch of unreasonable stray dogs! Ling Chengen even broke my arm, and I haven't sought revenge on her yet. What revenge does she have for me?"
"And you too!"
"Who do you think you are? You're not her beastly husband, what revenge are you taking for her?"
It's not the emperor who's worried, but this damned eunuch is!
The woman looked at the people in front of her, her eyes almost overflowing with hatred.
Chang Tianchen's sore spot was hit, and his handsome face immediately turned dark. He gritted his teeth and said, "Enough nonsense, let him go, and I'll leave you a whole corpse."
"Your ancestors' legs!" the woman cursed angrily.
What bad luck!
Every single day, I keep running into these self-deluded people!
Chang Tianchen gently twirled the halberd in his hand, his body poised to explode at any moment.
Fu Tong didn't actually dare to fight him head-on.
Chang Tianchen is a bloodthirsty madman.
During their time in the Daxing tribe, Ahmuqi and Ahmuqi held similar status, but Ahmuqi was superior in combat ability.
Even such a person ultimately died at the hands of this mad snake.
She was only good at using poison and seduction, not at direct combat, and was no match for him.
She had her arm torn off by that bastard Ling Chengen, and for several years afterward, her strength stagnated as she remained in a state of recuperation and healing.
It wasn't until last spring that her newly grown arm finally felt less stiff, allowing her ability level to rise slightly again.
I never imagined that after only a few days of good times, my home would be gone again.
A bunch of rotten bastards!
Like they've gone mad!
But I want to live even more.
Fu Tong did not release the hostage in her hands and continued the stalemate with Chang Tianchen. At the same time, she was thinking about how to find an opportunity to escape before Chang Tianchen made a move.
Shi Panxing finally understood the situation and stood aside, a smile playing on his lips, asking, "Do you need my help?"
Chang Tianchen turned around and said, "This is a matter for our Northern Wilderness, don't interfere."
"Fine, if you're out of ideas, you can come and beg me."
Shi Panxing took a few steps back, creating a safe distance between himself and Chang Tianchen, to ensure that the sharp halberd wouldn't pierce his face if a fight broke out.
However, before Chang Tianchen could make a move, Fu Tong's body trembled suddenly, and she turned around to look behind her.
In the shadows behind her, a pale, thin hand slowly removed the dagger stuck in her back. At the same time, her right hand, which was gripping the guard's throat, was suddenly broken.
Shi Panxing, who was leaning against the cell railing, was also startled by the scene before him and stared intently at the thin figure hidden behind Fu Tong...
