”Do we have a chance to turn them?”

Upon hearing Qin Tian’s joy, Liu Weihao was also delighted and asked.

Qin Tian nodded, ”We should have.”

After speaking, Qin Tian immediately gave orders, telling the city guard soldiers to shout in unison, ”East State people don’t fight East State people!”

For a moment, the sound was deafening, echoing across the land!

Qin Tian could clearly see that when these shouts were heard, the vanguard of the Dragon Clan army slowed down, and the frontline siege soldiers appeared visibly confused.

They were clearly moved by the slogan!

Rumble!

As the East State surrender troops at the front gradually slowed, a large cavalry unit from behind rushed up, and the East State surrender troops began to slowly advance again.

However, at a close distance, Qin Tian on the city tower could see clearly that the East State surrender troops were being driven by the Dragon Clan’s cavalry! They were forced to attack the city!

Qin Tian directly found City Lord Fang and said, ”City Lord Fang, order the city guard soldiers to change the slogan to ’Defend East State, drive out the Dragon Clan.’

Although Qin Tian’s urgent command did not have Liu Weihao’s approval, City Lord Fang also knew that Qin Tian was effectively Liu Weihao’s strategist, whom Liu Weihao had to listen to.

Thus, after hearing Qin Tian’s suggestion, City Lord Fang complied.

”Defend East State! Drive out the Dragon Clan!”

”Defend East State, drive out the Dragon Clan!”

When this slogan was thunderously shouted from the city tower, finally, the East State surrender troops close to the city responded.

It started with a Dragon Clan cavalry whipping an East State soldier, forcing the latter to charge.

Then, the soldier resisted and directly fought the Dragon Clan cavalry.

This instantly became the spark that ignited the battle between the two sides.

More and more Dragon Clan cavalry and East State surrender troops joined the fight, and they clashed directly just a mile from Sea City!

At this moment, the situation was beyond the control of the Dragon Clan officers.

Seizing the opportunity, Qin Tian found Liu Weihao and decisively suggested, ”Lord Liu, they’re already fighting outside. Let’s open the city gates now and join forces with the East State surrender troops to attack the Dragon Clan!”

”Open the city gates... Qin Tian, are you sure this isn’t a Dragon Clan ruse?” Although Liu Weihao was a good person, his indecisive nature made him hesitate at this moment.

After all, once the city gate was opened, there was no turning back.

Qin Tian nodded, ”The Dragon Clan troops have more people and high morale. They don’t need to put on an act in front of us. It’s definitely an internal conflict. Lord Liu, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!”

After Qin Tian finished speaking, Liu Weihao was still somewhat hesitant.

Qin Tian continued, ”Lord Liu, if you open the city gates now and join the East State surrender troops in defeating the Dragon Clan, if we hold Sea City, you will be the great hero of Sea City! Your name will go down in history!”

These words immediately moved Liu Weihao, and he nodded, ”Alright! Relay my order, open the city gates! The whole army mobilizes! Qin Tian leads the charge, and everyone listens to Qin Tian’s commands!”

Qin Tian glanced at Liu Weihao, knowing that while it seemed Liu Weihao was giving him authority, in reality, it was because the man distrusted Qin Tian’s strategy, and within his heart, he had a bit of self-preservation, allowing Qin Tian to lead the charge out of the city while he stayed inside, observing the situation.

If things turned south, he’d have an escape route.

But at this moment, Qin Tian had no such thoughts. If Sea City was held, it would be a great merit for him; he had to go out!

Rumble!

The gates of Sea City opened, and Qin Tian and Zhao Lanjin rushed at the forefront, leading a force of 2,500 men (500 were kept inside by Liu Weihao) directly joining the East State surrender troops in battle.

The facts were just as Qin Tian predicted; the East State surrender troops were indeed engaged in fierce combat with the Dragon Clan.

When Qin Tian led his men to join, both sides immediately fell into a deadlock.

”Damn, why are these Dragon Clan soldiers so formidable?”

After personally killing two Dragon Clan soldiers, Qin Tian finally realized that the Dragon Clan soldiers were at least a level higher in fighting capability compared to the City Guard Army soldiers and East State soldiers.

Qin Tian had to use Gale Illusion and Wind Breaking Slash to kill two Dragon Clan soldiers.

”What’s... what’s going on...”

On the city tower, Liu Weihao was praying for Qin Tian, but when he saw the Dragon Clan soldier formation steadily pushing towards and nearing the city tower, he was shocked, somewhat dumbfounded.

”Why is this Dragon Clan army so strong? I have fought with them before, and they weren’t this powerful!”

Surprised, Liu Weihao realized that even if the East State surrender troops and Qin Tian’s forces combined their numbers, they still fell short of the Dragon Clan soldiers!

Moreover, the Dragon Clan soldiers were more capable than the City Guard Army!

”What should we do? Even together we are no match, this is the end...”

With the Dragon Clan troops advancing and laying siege, Liu Weihao was anxiously at his wit’s end.

A nearby personal soldier suggested, ”My lord, with the situation as it is, we have only two choices. Either we immediately abandon the city and flee, or we close the city gates and let them battle it out outside.”

Liu Weihao was stunned, ”Close the city gates? What good would that do? We only have a few hundred people; we can’t hold the city!”

The personal soldier responded, ”Closing the city gates would at least keep us from being affected. Besides, there are at least seven or eight thousand people outside, and even if they remain in a standoff, the fight would last for at least half a day. Once they drag on for half a day, we can watch as the situation changes...”

”Forget it, that’s a terrible idea!”

Liu Weihao pondered briefly, then interrupted the personal soldier and made a bold decision, ”Qin Tian is risking his life, I can’t flee from the battlefield. All of you, mount up with me, and we’ll ride out of the city to support them!”

In a critical moment, Liu Weihao chose to trust Qin Tian and, leading his 500 personal guards, charged out of Sea City to join Qin Tian in valiant resistance against the Dragon Clan army.

”Qin Tian, what’s going on? This isn’t what you expected.”

During the battle, Liu Weihao approached Qin Tian and asked.

Qin Tian replied, ”Lord Liu, I didn’t expect the Dragon Clan troops to be so strong, far exceeding the fighting capability of our City Guard Army, not to mention the local garrison. No wonder the previous East State army couldn’t withstand them and surrendered... With equal numbers, we can’t win.”

Liu Weihao said, ”Ten years ago, I participated in a major battle against the Dragon Clan. Back then, they weren’t this strong, far from it... I don’t know how the Dragon Clan soldiers have become so well-trained in recent years...”

”Maybe it’s because of that legendary woman!”

As Qin Tian spoke, he looked up at the sky, recalling the woman revered as a deity within the Dragon Clan:

”Long Tianwu... Is this Long Tianwu truly this powerful? In just a few years, the Dragon Clan has become so formidable!”
