The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

A few days passed by in a flash.

North of the cliff city.

Jinshui City.

This is a very small town, which usually serves as an outpost for the soldiers of Cliff City to patrol.

Caravans often stop here to rest and replenish their supplies.

However, its primary function is still in the military field.

Besides Jinshui City, in front of Juebi City, there are also Mushui City, Huoshui City, Tushui City, and Shuangshui City.

These five small towns form the first barrier facing the grasslands from the cliff city!

That day, just as dawn was breaking, a massive cavalry force surrounded Jinshui City.

Xiao Kaishan was at the very front!

At this moment, Xiao Kaishan looked at Tianjinshui City, which exuded a sense of desolation, and laughed loudly: "Da Jing! Prepare to be trampled by my iron hooves!"

"Let's start from Cliff City and unify the world!"

"I, the King, want to be the Heavenly Khan!!!"

If you stood on the city gate tower of Jinshui City at this time and looked around, you could only see a huge horde of cavalry, which seemed to blot out the sky and you couldn't see the end of them!

Unfortunately, today, there isn't a soul in Jinshui City, not even a ghost!

Not only Jinshui City, but the other four cities were also completely dark!

Xiao Kaishan's 500,000-strong army is now divided into five parts, each with 100,000 men, and they have surrounded these five small castles!

At this point, the five small fortresses were like a tiny boat in a stormy sea.

In Xiao Kaishan's eyes, a mere ripple was enough to shatter and scatter the small boat before him!

Unlike other knights, Xiao Kaishan rode a large white wolf that was nearly three meters long!

White Wolf has a hideous scar on his face!

Beside Xiao Kaishan, the chieftain of the Bear Tribe, Bart, rode a large black bear. The bear's size was similar to Xiao Kaishan's large white wolf, but it was extremely robust!

If the white wolf is a Ferrari sports car, then this black bear is a Land Rover Discovery.

Next to him was an old man with a full head of white hair, holding a cane, and his face covered with mysterious totems!

This old man is called Jamukha, the chief of the Tiger Tribe. He is riding a large tiger with piercing eyes and a white forehead!

In addition, there was a wild woman with a similarly tattooed face and a fierce look, riding a black panther.

This woman is the chieftain of the Leopard Tribe, named Chabi.

The last middle-aged man was named Subutai, and Subutai rode a powerful lion!

These are the five most powerful tribes on the grassland: wolves, bears, tigers, leopards, and lions!

The wolf riders were the most numerous, numbering around five hundred!

The remaining ones are bears and leopards, each with about three hundred riders!

There were only a few dozen tigers and lions!

Compared to hundreds of thousands of cavalry, this number is indeed insignificant.

Although their numbers are few, the aura they exude is unmatched by ordinary warhorses!

"Warriors!" Xiao Kaishan exclaimed excitedly, "Pass down the order to the Great Jing garrison in the city! If they open the city gates and welcome their new master, I will spare their lives! Otherwise, they will become lambs on the grasslands, dying under the scimitars of our grassland warriors!"

When the army marched south, Hailasunaza instructed Xiao Kaishan to minimize the killing during this campaign. Since they planned to settle in the southwest of Dajing for the long term, they should not kill all the local people.

For the Eternal Heaven, a land barren for thousands of miles was not a good omen.

It is very difficult to establish a mature dynasty without the help of the people of the Central Plains.

The original inhabitants of Dajing were also an indispensable part of the Great Khanate.

However, that applies to civilians who pose no threat to Dajing. If the defenders of Juebi City are stubborn and insist on fighting to the end, then those who deserve to be killed will still be killed.

Soon, the vanguard cavalry had reached the front of Jinshui City and were shouting at it.

To the cavalryman's dismay, even after shouting himself hoarse, Jinshui City remained deathly silent!

“King Xiao, I think this is another trick by the Great Jing army, something called the Empty City Stratagem!” Lion Tribe Chief Subutai sneered.

Chief Jamukha of the Tiger Tribe nodded: "That's right! These Central Plains people love to do this. They pretend there's no one in the city, and when our warriors get close, they suddenly appear and start shooting arrows like crazy!"

"These Central Plains people are like cunning foxes on the grasslands!" Bart grunted. "This time, let me blow their heads off!"

Xiao Kaishan narrowed his eyes: "Send a few more people forward, thirty steps, and keep shouting!"

Approaching thirty paces again, they were now within the range of the Jinshui City garrison's arrows.

But after a while, Jinshui City remained the same!

Not only Jinshui City, but the other four small cities are the same!

"Hmph! You're really patient!" Xiao Kaishan was getting impatient.

In his view, these people from the Central Plains would never give up defending these five small cities.

Because this is the barrier of Cliff City, it can echo Cliff City from afar and greatly weaken their power.

So the only possibility is that these Jing soldiers are hiding in the city, waiting for them to get close before launching a sneak attack!

"Roar!"

The white tiger let out a low growl.

Jamukha reached out and gently stroked the white tiger's head, shaking his head and saying, "King Xiao, we have done everything we can. Since these people of the Great Jing are so determined to see the Yellow River, then let the warriors' scimitars send them to meet the Eternal Heaven!"

Xiao Kaishan nodded, casually raised a golden scimitar hanging on the wolf's back, pointed it at a 45-degree angle to the sky, and roared, "Warriors! Charge!"

"Go! Go! Go!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The next second, a deep and powerful horn sounded between heaven and earth!

Soon, a path parted within the cavalry ranks, and dozens of two-meter-tall burly men from the grasslands pushed a siege engine and charged forward at high speed!

In order to conquer the city of the Great Jing Dynasty, Xiao Kaishan went to great lengths and created a lot of siege equipment!

As Helasu Naza said, even if they could capture Cliff City without siege equipment, they would suffer huge casualties!

Xiao Kaishan wasn't stupid; of course, he wouldn't waste his men's strength for nothing!

Fifty giants from the grasslands pushed the siege engine through the city gates of Jinshui City with unimpeded speed, practically smashing it open in one go!

The whole process was very smooth.

Because of its excessive speed, the siege engine couldn't stop and rushed a considerable distance into the city.

Fifty giants of the grasslands felt like they were punching cotton.

"Ok?"

Seeing this, Xiao Kaishan was somewhat bewildered.

Not only Xiao Kaishan, but also the chieftains of the Tiger, Leopard, Bear, and Lion clans, as well as other clan chiefs of all ranks, were completely dumbfounded.

"Imperial Preceptor, what's going on?"

Xiao Kaishan was somewhat skeptical and turned to look at Qing Manchao, who had remained silent behind him.
