Chapter 373: Burning down the Chu Royal Palace!

Translator: 549690339

“Where is the Queen?”

“Where’s SHU mi envoy Lian Jing?”

“Where are the Chu King’s sons?”

“Where are King Chu’s concubines?”

Shen Lang’s Army had already sealed off a few palace gates.

In the square outside the palace, thousands of people knelt in an orderly manner.

Most of them were eunuchs and Palace maids, and some of them were Warriors who had retreated to the palace.

However, all the important members were missing.

Even the head eunuchs did not see many of them.

Did they escape from the palace?

Or was he hiding in the secret underground room of the palace?

“Who is willing to answer me?” Shen lang asked loudly.

The kneeling maids and eunuchs trembled in fear, and the Warriors gnashed their teeth. Even though they were looking at the ground, their eyes were still filled with bone-deep hatred.

Shen lang said,”where did the Queen go?” Where did the secret envoy lianjing Shu go? Who can tell me? Even if you have to say you don’t know!”

There was still no answer.

“If you want to kill, then kill. There’s nothing to say.” A voice suddenly roared.

“Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh”

Before he could finish his sentence, an arrow had pierced through his head.

Shen Lang’s gaze landed on the palace maids and eunuchs.

This was because King Chu’s concubines were likely to dress up as Palace maids, and King Chu’s sons might dress up as eunuchs.

“This person, this person, this person, Wuwu”

Shen lang pointed at the crowd and the Nirvana Warriors rushed into the crowd one by one and pulled them out.

“What are you doing? What are you guys doing? We’re just puny Palace maids!” The few beautiful women shouted.

Shen lang said,”a Palace maid has such good skin?” The palace maid even has precious Jade and pearls on her?”

These women were either King Chu’s concubines or his daughters.

“That brat, that, that, catch all of them and let’s bring them out.”

With Shen Lang’s order, six eunuchs were dragged out.

Eunuchs have balls? If he wasn’t King Chu’s son, then what was he?

Under Shen Lang’s sharp eyes, all the nobles who were mixed in with the palace maids and eunuchs were pulled out.

But there was not a single key figure.

“Tell me, did the Queen run away?” Shen lang squatted in front of an imperial concubine and asked.

The woman trembled and shook her head. “No, I don’t know. I really don’t know.”

She really did not know.

This time, not only did Shen lang want to capture the capital, but he also wanted to capture Queen Chu and the rest.

In this way, he could use these people as hostages and easily leave Chu country.

His Army didn’t want to leave through the great snow Mountain again.

However, if he were to leave normally, he would definitely be chased by the Army of Chu State.

Now that he had successfully conquered the capital of Chu country, he didn’t want to fight another big battle.

Furthermore, capturing King Chu and putting him on display would maximize the effect of this victory.

He asked several people, but none of them knew the Queen’s whereabouts.

And it really didn’t seem like he was lying.

This Queen Chu’s methods were rather ruthless and she was not very popular. There were many people in the palace who secretly hated her.

That was why she had hidden her whereabouts from almost everyone.

Shen lang had used an X-ray to check. There were three secret passages that led to the outside of the Chu Royal Palace. He had already sent people to block the exits, but there was no sign of the Chu King and the others.

“The Queen has been burned to death. She will never surrender.” stop! a warrior suddenly shouted. you want to catch the Queen? in your dreams!

“Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh”

Another arrow was shot, piercing through his head.

Shen lang sneered. you said that ning yuanxian and concubine Bian would commit suicide. I believe you.

Would a woman like Queen Chu commit suicide?

How was that possible?

Alright, Shen lang understood.

“Except for the palace maids and eunuchs, kill them all!”

He gave the order.

The sharpshooters of the sand primitive tribe in the second Nirvana Army No. 2 drew their bows.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

It was an extremely precise kill.

The last batch of Warriors in the capital city of Chu Kingdom had been killed, a total of two to three thousand people.

They wanted to resist, but before they could rush out, they were immediately shot in the head by arrows.

Next, Shen lang would have to control the entire capital with this Army of less than 10000 soldiers.

He couldn’t have any woman’s benevolence and couldn’t leave any hidden dangers.

Then, Shen lang said to the palace maids and eunuchs, ” all of you, find a place to hide. But please remember one thing. You can’t appear on the four great Dao. Otherwise, I’ll kill you without mercy!

“Thank you, young master! Thank you, young master!”

Thousands of Palace maids and eunuchs fled in panic.

Shen lang ordered, ” leave 500 soldiers from the 2nd Nirvana Army. The rest of the soldiers will join the 3rd Nirvana Army and defend the Chu capital’s city walls. After this, the various troops of the Chu country will come to the capital in an attempt to reinforce it! This is probably the best chance to kill them all.”

“Yes!”

The second Nirvana Army consisted of 2500 people, while Queen Sharman had more than 4000 people. They left the square of the palace and headed for the city wall of the capital.

Shen lang led the 2000 men from the first Nirvana Army and continued to surround the palace. They were waiting for the fire to die out so that they could catch the turtle in the jar.

He wanted to know if the fire in the Royal Palace would be extinguished earlier or if the Chu country’s first reinforcement would arrive earlier!

..................

The facts proved it.

The materials used to build the Royal Palace of Chu State were of high quality. The wood was so good that it burned for a whole day and night without extinguishing.

Shen lang watched as the palaces collapsed one by one.

It was really a little sinful.

Back when Xiang Yu burned down Epang Palace, who knew what state of mind he was in?

However, Shen lang did not feel happy.

Of course, he did not feel much regret.

The flames that filled the entire Palace gradually died down, turning into thick smoke that soared into the sky.

It could be seen clearly from hundreds of miles away.

In the beginning, there were still people who tried to put out the fire, but they gave up as soon as they appeared.

About 15 hours later!

Chu state’s first reinforcement Army had arrived, with about 20000 people.

This person was the governor of Yan County, Chen Shen.

Looking up, he found that there was already a big ” ning ” character hanging on the wall of the capital.

The governor of Chu State couldn’t believe it.

After he learned that the Yue Army had launched a surprise attack on the Chu royal capital, he immediately gathered all the civilian troops in the county to come to the aid. He had traveled day and night and finally arrived.

He originally thought that he could coordinate with the defending Army of the king’s city to completely annihilate the Yue Army.

He didn’t expect that the capital had fallen.

Yingluo, how is this possible?

The entire King Chu had an Army of tens of thousands.

According to the intelligence, the number of soldiers that Shen lang and Ning Zheng sent to attack the capital was less than 10000.

In less than two days, it had actually fallen?

The capital was one of the few fortifications in the world. Under normal circumstances, without an Army of 100000, one would not even have the courage to attack.

What kind of methods did Shen lang have? with less than 10000 people, he managed to take them down in just one day?

Following that, the governor of Chu looked at the Vietnamese Army on the city wall. There were only about 6000 people.

He suppressed the thought of trying to attack.

He did not negotiate, but immediately sent a Knight to report to King Chu.

After that, he did not leave. Instead, he led his 20000-strong Army to surround a corner of the city wall and waited for the arrival of other reinforcements.

........................

The fire in the Royal Palace of Chu State burned for two days and two nights before it finally died out.

The once magnificent Palace had been reduced to ruins.

Most of the palaces had collapsed.

Most of the palaces in this era were made of wood, especially the pillars and beams.

Now, all that was left were dark, broken walls.

This Royal Palace had a history of over three hundred years. It was only after the previous Chu Kings had expanded it that it could reach such a scale.

How much money did they spend to build this Palace?

It was completely uncountable and was definitely a shocking astronomical figure.

If Chu State wanted to build an identical Royal Palace, it would take at least a few decades, even with its National Strength.

Therefore, Shen Lang’s actions were enough to make the entire Chu country vomit blood.

Most importantly, this would be a destructive blow to the dignity of Chu.

..................

Shen lang led the first Nirvana Army into the palace to search.

According to his judgment, the King of Chu, a few princes, the King of Chu’s important concubines, as well as envoy Shu mi, Lian Jing, and others were still in the palace.

This was because King Chu had fallen too quickly and too suddenly. These people did not even have time to escape.

Therefore, it could only be in the underground secret room.

If Shen lang was right, the secret underground rooms should be under the pool.

The fire would burn the entire Palace, and there would be a lot of fatal smoke, which would also lead to a lack of oxygen. The most fatal thing was that once the smoke entered the underground secret chamber, the people inside would choke to death.

Therefore, the secret room was built under the pool to have more vitality.

If it were anyone else, trying to find the entrance to the secret underground room in this ruin would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

However, Shen lang had X-Ray Eyes.

Just half an hour later!

He found it.

This secret room was indeed near the pool, and there was an underground sewer around it.

The entrance was in a pile of ruins.

Li qianqiu and bitter joy stepped forward to investigate.

“Young master, the entrance is a thick metal door!”

The thermite was coming in handy again.

He directly stuck it to the iron door and lit the ignition agent.

“BOOM!”

A burst of extremely dazzling white light.

The amazing temperature of the aluminite directly burned through the thick iron door.

Then, a series of exclamations came from the underground secret room.

Li qianqiu could clearly feel a killing intent.

Moreover, it was a Grandmaster level expert who was guarding the entrance of the secret underground room.

This was very normal. Since the Royal Palace of Yue State had martial grandmasters, the Royal Palace of Chu State naturally had them as well.

Moreover, this entrance was narrow, and it could be said that one man could hold out against ten thousand men.

There was a Grandmaster class expert standing guard there. Even if hundreds or thousands of people rushed up, it would be useless.

However, Shen lang did not say anything.

He immediately threw a poison gas bomb in.

Of course, the so-called poison gas bomb was not a real biological weapon.

The effect was not even as good as tear gas. The most abundant content in it was the extracted chili powder and some strong irritating gases.

But who was the person in the secret chamber?

After the Chu Emperor, there were a few favored concubines, a few princes and princesses.

How pampered he was.

These two days and two nights, they had been extremely terrified and almost couldn’t breathe.

Shen Lang’s self-made tear bomb exploded.

He was completely unable to withstand the intense stimulation.

He couldn’t open his eyes, as if they were completely burned and he was about to go blind.

His throat was burning, and he could not breathe.

It was a hellish torture.

“Ah!!!!!!!!”

A series of ghostly wails and wolf howls could be heard.

“King Chu, are you going to stay inside or come out and surrender?” Shen lang said calmly.

However, Queen Chu could no longer make a sound.

After a long while, Queen Chu said hoarsely, ” “Ning Zheng, Shen lang, aren’t you afraid of angering the gods? He actually did something that goes against the heavens?”

Instantly, Shen lang threw another poison gas bomb in without saying anything.

“Ah!!!!!!!!”

“We’re going to die, we’re going to die, we surrender, don’t throw it away, Zhenzhen”

It was not Queen Chu who screamed, but another woman’s voice and a young man’s wail.

15 minutes later!

Everyone in the secret room walked out.

Shen lang saw an old eunuch. His eyes were red and swollen like peaches, but he still protected his master.

Shen lang was reminded of li mu, who was beside ning yuanxian.

This old eunuch was also a Grandmaster-level powerhouse.

Shen lang took out a bottle and said, ” eunuch Liu, you are a master-level powerhouse. We are worried about you. Therefore, we want you to drink this bottle of medicine. You will be fine after a few days of sleep. I don’t want to cut the tendons in your hands and feet.

The old eunuch trembled and fell into hesitation.

Shen lang raised his hand, and hundreds of arrows were aimed at King Chu and the princes.

As long as the master-level eunuch said no, Shen lang would immediately turn the Chu nobles into porcupines.

The old eunuch looked at Shen lang.

His gaze was very complicated, but there was not much hatred.

“AI!”

After a long sigh.

He drank the small bottle of medicine that Shen lang gave him.

After that.

He fell down and lost consciousness.

She would not wake up for the next few days and nights.

King Chu’s eyes were even more red and swollen, and he looked at Shen lang with anger and grief.

It was even a bone-deep hatred.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Shen lang said.

The Queen of Chu said coldly,”Shen lang, you will face retribution.” But it’s not God’s retribution, it’s the entire world’s retribution. From now on, you’re the mortal enemy of my Chu country, the mortal enemy for all eternity.”

“Really? ‘I’m so scared,’ Shen lang said, ” if I were you, I would definitely shut up completely. Can’t you just be a good captive? ”

Shen lang waved his hand.

Immediately, two warriors stepped forward and grabbed King Chu’s hands tightly.

“What do you want to do? I’m the queen of the Chu Kingdom, what do you want to do?” Queen Chu screamed madly.

Shen lang took out a syringe.

It was directly inserted into the king Chu’s groin lymph, and then all the liquid inside was injected.

Queen Chu screamed in fear,”Shen lang, what did you hit me with?” What did you hit?”

“You’ll know in a few days.” Shen lang said, ” this is your punishment for your rudeness. If you continue to talk nonsense, I promise that you will not be able to live or die. You will be a prisoner with dignity. Okay? ”

King Chu’s entire body trembled.

“I’m asking you, can you do it?” Shen lang asked.

The Empress of Chu nodded.

“I don’t want to nod. I want you to answer, okay?” Shen lang said coldly.

“Alright, alright!” The Chu Queen sobbed.

She had never been so humiliated before.

However, she was far from being as proud and brave as she had imagined.

At this moment, what dominated her mind was still fear.

“Alright, let’s start the parade.” Shen lang said, ” prepare a carriage and put the king, the princes, and the consorts in it. Then, we will walk around the streets of the Chu royal capital. We must let everyone see that this is their Queen.

Next!

An even more embarrassing scene happened.

King Chu and all the other nobles were wearing gold paper shackles as they paraded through the streets on their carriages.

everyone has come to take a look. This is King Chu, these are his concubines, and they are all his sons.

“The Grand exhibition of Chu’s royal family, hehe.”

“Citizens of the Chu royal capital, come and see your Queen!”

Countless commoners came out to watch.

The first thing they felt was a great humiliation.

And then disappointment!

Why didn’t these high and mighty royal family members commit suicide?

Why didn’t he want to die to preserve the dignity of Chu State? why did he have to be humiliated by the people of Yue State?

Also, how high and mighty was Queen Chu usually, how motherly was she?

At this moment, he was in such a sorry state, his face full of tears and his body trembling.

For a few hours!

The parade was over.

The countless citizens of the Chu royal capital could see it clearly.

Countless people were furious, and countless people were crying.

However, the image of the royal family in their hearts had almost collapsed in an instant.

..............................

Three days later!

Below the Chu royal capital, the Chu army was densely packed.

All the reinforcements from the surrounding cities and counties had arrived. There were a total of 60000 to 70000 people.

However, almost all of them were local guards.

The true elites on the front line only numbered less than twenty thousand.

The sun had just risen.

The Chu state’s reinforcements outside the city were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Their Queen Chu appeared on top of the city wall, her expression Haggard and fearful.

Was it because the virus in her body seemed to have acted up?

His body was covered in blisters, especially at his damp corners.

There was also his back, stomach, and arms.

They were densely packed and extremely terrifying.

The pain and itchiness seemed to be coming from the cracks of his bones.

He was unable to sleep for several days and nights, and all his will and pride were completely destroyed.

She was so Haggard and disheveled that she did not look like the high and mighty Queen Chu from before.

Ning Zheng, Shen lang, you are despicable. Despicable Zhenzhen!

“Shen lang, if you have the guts, fight with us? If the Queen and the princes were held hostage, how could they be considered heroes?”

Shen lang, you lowly man, you actually used a woman as a hostage? ”

The general of the Chu state’s reinforcement Army below the city wall cursed.

Shen lang sneered, ” first, I’m not a hero. Second, I have no intention of using the Chu Emperor’s Empress as a hostage to force you to surrender. I’m just letting you see what the Queen looks like now. Do you see it now? Did you see clearly?”

“Did you see clearly?”

“He should have seen it clearly.”

“Take the Queen away!” Shen lang said.

Queen Chu was taken away.

Shen lang said to the Chu country’s reinforcements, ” “Didn’t you say that we’ll fight with real swords and guns? You can start now!”

“Come on, come on, come on!”

This contemptuous and despicable look of his had completely infuriated the general of the Chu state’s reinforcement Army.

“Attack the city! Kill all the people of Yue country and Save the Queen and the Prince!” The general of the Chu state’s reinforcements roared.

Then, 60 – 70 thousand Chu soldiers attacked the city crazily!

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

In the second Nirvana Army, the godly archers of the sand primitive tribe were shooting arrows.

It felt so good to be looking down from above!

It was another one-sided massacre!

Two hours later!

The battle had ended!

Out of the 60 – 70 thousand reinforcement troops of Chu State, over 20 thousand of them were killed or injured. The rest of them had all escaped.

Shen lang shouted from the top of the city wall,”Sirs, remember to come again!” Call all the surrounding reinforcements. I’m not leaving, I’ll wait for you here!”

the King of Chu isn’t leaving either. You must remember to come. Next time, bring a hundred thousand troops!

After hearing Shen Lang’s words, the generals of the Chu country’s reinforcements and a few governors were so embarrassed that they wanted to die.

After that, there would be no more reinforcements.

The most powerful Army in the entire Chu country was at the front line, under the command of the King of Chu.

He wondered how the King of Chu would react when he heard the bad news.

What kind of decree would he give?
