Chapter 286 The Extreme Cold Disaster Arrives on Time
Mu Wanjun knew that Shen Shuli wanted to keep these people to fight against the enemy forces from outside the region.
So they didn't plan to kill him.
The Imperial Guards are indeed quite formidable.
In just a few breaths, they had already reached the middle position by following the rope.
The fog near the helicopter was thinner than in other areas due to the wind blowing through the rotor blades.
The Imperial Guards at the top could vaguely see a giant bird, one they had never seen before, perched in mid-air at the other end of the rope.
Moreover, the rumbling sound became even louder!
The medicinal powder sprinkled by Mu Wanjun was concealed by the mist, and the Imperial Guards did not notice anything unusual at all, accidentally inhaling a lot of it.
Before he even reached the helicopter, he felt his body gradually weaken and he began to fall uncontrollably.
The people below hadn't inhaled the powder yet, but they were caught in the fall by those above, and several of them couldn't dodge in time and fell down together.
Even if the people on the other side realized what was happening, they couldn't offer any help.
They were in mid-air, unable to gain any leverage, and could only watch helplessly as their companion fell.
The group could only quickly alert the people on the ground to help catch their companion.
"Attention everyone down below! Someone has fallen! Help catch them!"
"Yes!"
Hearing their companions' response, the group continued climbing.
Available soon.
Several more people inhaled the powder and began to experience rapid symptoms, after which they all fell to their deaths.
This time, the people below were prepared and narrowly escaped being implicated by their companions.
But as long as they keep climbing, they will fall in the same way.
Before long, without exception.
All the guards fell.
Xiao Yuqiang was surprised that the Imperial Guards were so useless that they couldn't even handle such a simple task.
With a dark face, he asked, "A bunch of useless trash, could it be that there really are gods in the heavens?"
The guards were not injured in the fall; although their bodies were somewhat stiff, they were still able to maintain some control.
They immediately knelt down to beg for forgiveness and explain.
"Your Majesty, whenever we reach the same spot, we suddenly lose all our strength and our bodies become uncontrollable. It's really strange."
"However, I seem to have seen a giant bird hovering in mid-air. The red silk may have been carried by the bird, rather than by divine power."
The Imperial Guards dared not speak of ghosts and gods in front of His Majesty, otherwise they would surely be severely punished by His Majesty!
But he could never have imagined that his guess was almost the truth.
Shen Shuli and her two companions used a drone to eavesdrop, listening to every single word the Imperial Guard said.
"Tsk tsk tsk, how dare you question the existence of gods!" Shen Shuli was somewhat displeased.
Although she didn't want to cripple these troops, she still needed to establish her authority and make them fear the gods!
She immediately took out the helicopter's microphone and shouted loudly from high in the air.
"You mortals! How dare you disrespect the gods! You deserve punishment!"
Shen Shuli's clear yet authoritative voice pierced through layers of clouds and reached the hearts of everyone on the ground.
The sound seemed to come from the heavens, striking their hearts and delivering a heavy blow!
Xiao Yuqiang was almost about to believe the Imperial Guards when he heard the voice of a god from the heavens!
The sound almost made him lose his composure and collapse on the spot.
But he had a pretty good mental fortitude and managed to control himself and avoid making a fool of himself on the spot.
But others don't have his mental fortitude.
The entire army was so frightened that they all knelt down, kowtowing and begging for mercy. They were truly terrified of the gods and worried that they would be angered and punished.
Worried that the pressure wasn't enough, Shen Shuli immediately set off several heavenly lightning bolts.
It crashed near the army.
The bomb was extremely powerful, and the sudden explosion startled everyone, sending them sprawling and scattering in all directions.
Xiao Yuqiang was also startled and quickly hid in the golden tent.
Lin Wanwan had never seen anything so bizarre before. Despite her fear, she still had to put on a good show in front of the emperor.
"Your Majesty, don't be afraid, I will protect you."
Xiao Yuqiang could hear Lin Wanwan's lips trembling with fear, yet her first thought was still to protect him, which touched him slightly.
Shen Shuli threw nine bombs in a row before stopping.
It must be said that she was quite measured in her actions.
No one was injured, but it definitely terrified these people.
She continued to use the walkie-talkie to exert pressure.
"Listen, you weak mortals! Li Hai City is my territory. You must leave immediately and not approach! Otherwise, heavenly lightning will strike you!"
Shen Shuli called out dozens of times.
They also had Mu Wanjun cooperate, having her fly the helicopter over the entire group several times so that everyone could hear her warning.
The entire army of 400,000 was terrified, kneeling trembling on the ground, not daring to move, praying in their hearts that His Majesty would make a decision as soon as possible.
have to say.
Shen Shuli's outrageous actions definitely shocked these ignorant ancient people.
This includes Xiao Yuqiang, who calls himself a chosen one.
He initially thought someone was using some kind of trickery he didn't understand to scare them.
But when the voice of the gods came from the sky and nine bolts of heavenly thunder descended, a deep sense of awe arose in his heart!
This is also the moment.
He came to a realization.
That is.
He boasted of his extraordinary intelligence, but he was ultimately just a mortal.
Before the gods, he is nothing!
Xiao Yuqiang didn't want to appear weak in front of his subordinates, so his expression was never pleasant.
But he dared not provoke the gods, for if he truly angered them, he and his entire team might be wiped out!
After weighing the pros and cons, Xiao Yuqiang finally made his decision!
"Withdraw! Withdraw from Yunhai City!" Xiao Yuqiang ordered.
The entire army breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that His Majesty had finally made a decision!
They immediately regrouped, changed formation, and fled towards Yunhai City.
now.
Everyone, including Xiao Yuqiang, had completely forgotten about the loss of food and other supplies.
Only after the entire army hastily and chaotically arrived at Yunhai City and took control of the city did they remember this matter.
This made Xiao Yuqiang so angry that he almost vomited blood.
How could he not understand?
The mysterious disappearance of food supplies must be related to the gods!
"This is outrageous!" Xiao Yuqiang went mad in the largest and most luxurious mansion in Yunhai City.
Lin Wanwan huddled to the side, not daring to move, watching His Majesty vent his anger.
When Shen Shuli and the other two saw that the new emperor had indeed led his army to retreat, they couldn't help but cheer and celebrate.
Mu Wanjun took control of the helicopter's autopilot.
The three of them excitedly opened a bottle of red wine in the cabin to celebrate.
"I never expected that we could scare that idiot Xiao Yuqiang away so easily! It was so effortless!" Mu Wanjun was overjoyed.
The Mu family was exiled and their property confiscated by the old emperor, and Xiao Yuqiang was behind it all. Mu Wanjun hated him the most.
If it weren't for the need for Xiao Yuqiang to counterbalance other forces, she would have loved to skin him alive.
Shen Shuli and Xiao Yuxuan were equally happy, and the three of them drank a bottle of red wine together.
It was getting late.
The three quickly returned to Lihai City.
But they won't take the credit for themselves.
Back at the Gao residence, he pretended to know nothing.
North gate of Lihai City.
Marquis Pingxi and Gao Fei stood ready on the city wall, having waited anxiously for the arrival of the new emperor.
But they waited until dark and still couldn't see the enemy approach the city gate.
The two immediately realized something was wrong.
soon.
The scout who had been keeping a close watch on the enemy's movements finally returned to report.
"How did it go? Why are you back so late?" Marquis Pingxi asked anxiously.
The scout quickly replied.
"Reporting to Your Excellency, that troop suddenly withdrew and headed towards Yunhai City!"
"My subordinates were worried that it was a trap, so they secretly followed them and only returned to report the news after watching them enter Yunhai City with their own eyes."
As a reconnaissance team, the scouts dared not get too close to the enemy, otherwise, if they were accidentally discovered and captured by the enemy scouts, the losses would be enormous!
It's like our army losing its eyes and becoming blind.
Therefore, they did not know exactly what had happened to the enemy.
Upon hearing this, Marquis Pingxi and Gao Fei exchanged puzzled glances.
"Is the news true?" Marquis Pingxi confirmed.
"Confirmed!" the scout said firmly.
But Marquis Pingxi still couldn't be sure.
Compared to Lihai City, Yunhai City lags far behind in all aspects of development.
He couldn't understand why the new emperor would suddenly abandon Lihai City and instead choose to go to Yunhai City.
However, the current situation is advantageous to them.
But he was still worried and said to Gao Fei, "Commander, why don't we send people together to Yunhai City to keep an eye on things, in case the new emperor has any schemes? We need to be on guard."
Gao Fei was the first to object, saying that he didn't want the Marquis of Pingxi to call him the Transport Commissioner, as he had long since given up on that position and didn't like the title.
“My lord, I am no longer the Transport Commissioner. Just call me by my name.”
"I agree with your suggestion. The new emperor's behavior is unusual, and he is probably plotting some conspiracy. We must be on guard."
Upon hearing this, Marquis Pingxi frowned.
If what Gao Fei said is true, then his title of Marquis of Pingxi was also bestowed by the emperor, so shouldn't he change his title as well?
Gao Fei seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and said with a smile, "My lord, don't overthink it. My official position was bestowed upon me by the old emperor. I have a grudge against him, so I don't care about it."
"Your title of Marquis was bestowed by the founding emperor and has nothing to do with the old emperor, so there's no need to worry about it."
Upon hearing this, Marquis Pingxi felt much more cheerful.
Yes.
His title has nothing to do with the old emperor; it is the result of his ancestors' achievements for the Gao family. Why should he refuse it?
The two men each dispatched two small teams of one hundred men to secretly travel to Yunhai City to monitor the movements of the new emperor's army.
Especially along the coast.
Fearing that the new emperor might change course and launch a surprise attack on Lihai City by sea, the two also dispatched a team to guard the city closely.
Half of the shipyard's craftsmen and their families have left.
Half of the people still need to be delivered again.
Worried about something happening to the fleet, Shen Shuli and Xiao Yuxuan took a boat out to sea together.
Before leaving, Shen Shuli left one helicopter for Mu Wanjun.
In case the new emperor makes any moves, Mu Wanjun can promptly notify them to provide support.
This fleet consists of as many as 58 ships.
There were 11 large ships, 47 medium-sized ships, and two warships that were half a circle larger than the large ships.
They took away about 67,000 people at once.
As for the small boat.
Shen Shuli didn't take it out at all.
Small boats can't carry many people, are risky, and offer no shelter from the rain. There's no need to jeopardize everyone's safety.
Three large ships, five days ahead of schedule, carried 6,000 men to the island to build houses for the army.
Another fleet set sail in the morning.
The ships that Shen Shuli was escorting had been at sea for eight days when they finally met the three large ships that were returning.
