Hearing the casualty reports from the soldiers under his command, Su Ziyan's mood became heavier.

Although there will inevitably be casualties in war, when casualties occur on his side, Su Ziyan finds that his heart is still so fragile.

"Send a thousand soldiers and send the corpses of the sacrificed soldiers back to the empire, and bury them thickly. If there are family members, they will be cared for and subsidized according to the empire's system."

Su Ziyan sighed and said to the lieutenant beside him.

After capturing Lin Xicheng, Su Ziyan did not rest for too long, but set off with his army the next day, heading towards the capital of the Nanlin Empire.

The current Nanlin Empire has been devastated by this war. Not to mention the ministers in the capital who are still fighting for power, let alone the Nanlin Empire, there are only two cities left!

At this time, the capital of Nanlin Empire.

In the palace, all the ministers of the Nanlin Empire stood there with solemn expressions, while Cao Yan, the former prime minister of the Nanlin Empire, stood at the highest position representing the throne.

During this month, these ministers developed from a multilateral competition for the throne to a major force headed by Prime Minister Cao Yan.

Obviously, if this war can be quelled smoothly, then the one who ascends the throne of the Nanlin Empire is the former Prime Minister of the Nanlin Empire, Cao Yan!

"Everyone, according to the news, all the troops of our Nanlin Empire except the Eastern Border Army have been wiped out, and the road from the capital to the Eastern Border has been occupied by the Martial God Empire."

"Now, the Martial God Empire has captured the fifteen cities of our Nanlin Empire. Our Nanlin Empire, which is so large, has only these two cities left!"

"What we should do next is not to continue to fight in this court, but to work together to try to protect our Nanlin Empire, so as not to suffer the disaster of subjugation!"

Cao Yan said loudly, trying to impress the ministers below.

Hearing this, all the ministers in the courtroom were somewhat moved.

You must know that if the Nanlin Empire were to collapse, then it would be futile for them to do more now.

After thinking about it, these hundreds of ministers all agreed with Cao Yan's statement. They let go of their original prejudices. Even some ministers who regarded each other as mortal enemies stopped confrontation and concentrated their forces together.

After all, at this time of family and country crisis, if they don't abandon the so-called attitude of "restraining foreigners, they must first settle inside", then they will undoubtedly find their own way of death!

"I once subdued tens of thousands of people in the capital, and trained them to a certain extent, so that they can form combat power. I can order them to fight!"

"There are 500 sets of armors hidden in my mansion, I can provide them!"

"My mansion also has 200 sets!"

"I'm willing to provide three hundred sets!"

"There are a thousand repeating crossbows hidden in my mansion, which were originally intended to be transported to the border for smuggling trade, but this is the end of the matter, and I am willing to contribute all of them!"

"..."

These ministers opened their mouths one after another, and took out all their hole cards at the bottom of the box.

These trump cards are all shocking, and even some ministers have trump cards that can usurp the throne!

However, now is not the time to worry about these things. The prime minister at the top gathered the materials that everyone was willing to provide and came to the final conclusion.

That is, in addition to the original 5,000 city defense army, they can also pull an army of 20,000 people inside the city!

Moreover, these 20,000 people are fully armed!

Before that, I'm afraid even these ministers never thought that such a terrifying power was hidden in this capital!

"Prime Minister Cao, even if we have 25,000 soldiers, we probably won't be able to match the 350,000 troops of the Martial God Empire."

The Minister of War said this with a bit of worry in his eyes.

Hearing this, Cao Yan smiled and said, "If the army of the Martial God Empire is led by Yu Wenzhuo, the former commander in charge of vindication, or Nangong Yi, the general of the Southern Border Army, then I will be a little worried."

"But as far as I know, the coach of the 350,000 army is just a yellow-mouthed child in a weak year."

"Don't forget, I'm a master martial artist!"

Cao Yan showed the aura of his master martial artist, he said indifferently.

However, he did not expect that Nangong Yi, a strong second-order martial artist, would actually fight with the army.

Otherwise, he would certainly not be so confident.

After all, Nangong Yi has been in the army for decades, and his combat experience can definitely crush him. Although Cao Yan has such strength, he is only a civil servant, and his combat experience is still flawed.

If Cao Yan knew that Nangong Yi was not a master martial artist, but had already reached the realm of a martial artist, then he might have started thinking about running away.

At this time, after hearing Cao Yan's words, the ministers let go of their worries.

Although a grandmaster warrior cannot single-handedly take on an army of 350,000 people, there is no problem if it is just defending the city~www.wuxiahere.com~ Of course, the premise of all this is that the opponent does not have a grandmaster warrior or above.

With the cooperation of the ministers, 20,000 heavily armed soldiers were pulled out of the capital, and the original 5,000 city defense soldiers were also incorporated into this army.

The next day, Su Ziyan led 350,000 soldiers of the Martial God Empire to the city.

And on the city wall of the capital of the Nanlin Empire, there are thousands of soldiers holding crossbows.

In addition, there are 20,000 soldiers holding swords, standing behind the city wall, waiting for the next battle.

"This time, we will not be in a hurry to attack the city. First, let the soldiers of the bow and crossbow battalion be responsible for shooting down the enemies on the city wall, so as to consume the last living strength of the capital of the Nanlin Empire as much as possible."

"The soldiers of the heavy shield battalion are responsible for covering the bow and crossbow battalion, so that they can output more safely."

"After all the enemies on the city wall are dead, we will attack the city again."

Su Ziyan gave the order lightly.

After more than 10,000 soldiers died in the previous battle, the fighting method he chose has changed greatly. He changed from the original rolling attack to the more stable fighting method.

"Yes!"

The lieutenant beside Su Ziyan nodded and quickly passed on his order.

Su Ziyan's order was passed on to the soldiers below, layer by layer. It didn't take long for 30,000 soldiers to be divided among the 350,000 army. All of these 30,000 soldiers were armed with heavy shields and took the initiative to enter the city wall. Within the farthest range of those bowmen of the Nanlin Empire.

However, these Nanlin Empire crossbowmen did not shoot immediately. After all, the distance between the two sides was too far, and rash shooting would not only fail to guarantee the hit rate, but would also waste the few crossbow arrows left in the capital.
