The two hostages immediately entered the city, while Xia Long looked into the empty distance, feeling inexplicably disappointed.

The cold goddess has not changed, she is still difficult for people to get close to, or even say a few words to. Why, in the wide world, no man can enter Li Ming's eyes. Why, in the wide world, only Jiang Feng can win Li Ming's heart.

It really makes people envious and jealous.

But no matter what, at least I did something that made me happy today.

Xia Long opened his palm and found a few grains of black rice in it.

Presumably, if Mr. Kong knew that Li Ming had sneaked into the storage space, Mr. Kong would not let him go easily. You must know that Mr. Kong hated others to explore his secrets. Even as Mr. Kong's apprentice, he would not let him go easily.

Go and find out Mr. Kong’s secret.

In the past, the president of the Second Chamber of Commerce, Qian Qiu Meng, because he was overly curious, tried to hide in the storage space to explore Mr. Kong's secrets, but was finally discovered by Mr. Kong.

Mr. Kong erased all Qianqiu Meng's memories of the Cross Chamber of Commerce, sealed Qian Qiu Meng's abilities and power, and finally expelled him from the Cross Chamber of Commerce.

Qian Qiu Meng was one of the first batch of apprentices. He was a senior disciple. He was exiled just because he wanted to find out the secrets of Mr. Kong. If it were an outsider like Li Ming, he would definitely be punished even more severely.

Vice President Liu Yan came to Xia Long's side: "What are you thinking about? What are you doing standing here all this time?"

"Liu Yan, please do not report today's matter to Mr. Kong."

"I can see that you are deliberately protecting that woman. Do you know them?"

"Yeah, I can't hide it from you."

"Mr. Kong is the boss of the Cross Chamber of Commerce. There is nothing wrong with that. But my boss is you. Don't worry, I trust your judgment." Liu Yan patted Xia Long on the shoulder.

Xia Long was a little moved in his heart, but he couldn't find the right words to express his inner thoughts, so he also smiled and patted Liu Yan on the shoulder.

The friendship between friends is enough to be expressed with a smile.

On the other side, Li Ming and Jiang Wei stayed away from the valley base and came to the suburbs.

In retrospect, Li Ming should have been on the frontline battlefield, and now he doesn't know what the situation is like on the frontline.

The current location is in Hebei Province, far away from Wangcheng, but not far from Langfang City.

If there were tools such as helicopters or motorcycles, it would only take a few hours to reach Langfang City. But there is no available transportation at the moment, and even if there was, there would be no gasoline.

Li Ming caught a wild horse, but the wild horse was not obedient at all, or rather stupid, and did not understand Li Ming's command at all, and just ran around with Li Ming and Jiang Wei.

There was no other way, so Li Ming and Jiang Wei had no choice but to walk first. Maybe they would encounter some useful tools or animals on the way.

However, the two of them were very unlucky. They encountered a lot of animals, but they were all ferocious beasts and completely disobedient.

Jiang Wei and Liming walked for several hours and finally found a wild blood-light bird that could understand human speech.

Just like that, the two of them got on the Bloody Bird and flew to the north.

Here in the north, a large-scale final battle is taking place here, and the Imperial Palace is making a final stand against the Three Alliances.

The fierce battle has lasted for several hours, but Xiaotian and Zhenhuang were nowhere to be seen.

The absence of Xiaotian and Zhenhuang undoubtedly put greater pressure on the Imperial Palace. Generals such as Leng Jing, Lu Bingfeng, and Hongli led various regiments to mount a desperate resistance, but the situation was not optimistic.

It can be said that the Imperial Palace has not yet fallen because it was achieved through grinding and consuming a large amount of troops.

If this death rate is followed, the Imperial Palace will not be able to survive for a day.

On the other side, around two o'clock in the afternoon.

About 100,000 men and horses suddenly appeared in the west of Langfang City, and they were all equipped with siege equipment. Their leader was Xiao Tian.

At the same time, about 100,000 troops suddenly appeared in the east of Baoding City. They were fully equipped with siege equipment, and their leader was Zhenhuang.

What is going on?

This started from last night.

The Imperial Palace found out that the three alliances would launch a general attack early tomorrow morning, and they held a meeting overnight to discuss countermeasures.

However, the process of the meeting was not optimistic. With the current strength of the Imperial Palace, no matter how hard we try, it will be difficult to sustain this second wave of general attack.

Some people have suggested issuing weapons to civilians so that they can act as militia and draw firepower for soldiers.

But many people opposed this suggestion. After all, most of the civilians in the Imperial Palace were Yanhuang people. If they defected on the battlefield, it would be a catastrophic blow to the Imperial Palace.

No good countermeasures were thought of, and the meeting fell directly into a quarrel. Some senior officials who had more ideas became red-faced while some senior officials who had no ideas looked sad.

Suddenly, a person intervened and broke all the quarrels. His arrival brought everyone a glimmer of hope.

This person is Li Ziru, and his face is full of vicissitudes of life.

Li Ziru has been away from the Imperial Palace for some time, and his return today made everyone excited.

Lu Bingfeng jumped in front of Li Ziru and said excitedly: "You are finally back."

Li Ziru smiled slightly and said: "I originally didn't want to take care of it anymore, but the Imperial Palace is the hard work of us Snow Country people after all, so I can't ignore it."

"Everyone is very anxious now. You came at the right time."

"Thanks to the fact that there are still many parts of the city-circling camp that have not been completed, there are many loopholes to exploit. Otherwise, I would not be able to return to the Imperial Palace easily."

"Anyway, it's great to be here, hurry up and take charge of the overall situation." Lu Bingfeng said anxiously.

"Um."

Li Ziru came to the podium and began to preside over the meeting.

Xiaotian's heart is very complicated. On the one hand, he is not willing to have Li Ziru come back. Because Li Ziru has a high prestige, most people in the emperor's palace obey Li Ziru. But on the other hand, Xiaotian doesn't want it either.

Excluding Li Ziru from coming back, after all, the current situation in the Imperial Palace is not optimistic. It is estimated that only Li Ziru has hope to solve the current crisis.

At the end of the meeting, Li Ziru decided to make a final gamble. If this gamble wins, the Imperial Palace will last forever. That is to let Xiaotian and Zhenhuang lead elite troops to sneak attack Langfang City and Baoding City, cutting off the supplies of the coalition forces.

There are not many defenders in these two cities. After all, most of the troops will attack the Imperial Palace. However, these two cities store a large amount of resources and food. If these two cities are stolen, the strength of the three alliances will

Without food, it is impossible to continue fighting.

The so-called gambling is also very risky. You must know that without Zhenhuang and Xiaotian, tomorrow's decisive battle in the Imperial Palace will be very dangerous. If it cannot be defended, the Imperial Palace will be gone. But if it is defended, Lang Fangcheng and Baoding will

If the city successfully steals, it's a win-win situation.

Anyway, the current situation in the Imperial Palace is nothing but gambling.

Late at night, Leng Jing took advantage of the night and asked Bai Yehan to create foggy weather. Afterwards, Xiaotian and Zhenhuang led elite soldiers and siege troops to secretly leave the Imperial Palace.

A few people in the Three Alliances suspected that this large-scale foggy weather was not normal, but they did not pay attention to it. The reason was also very simple. There had never been a person with powers who could use fog in the Emperor's Palace before. Moreover, the Emperor

Smog does occasionally occur in cities.

Even Ding Meng did not pay attention to it. He had not thought that the Imperial Palace might send out elites to steal the city, but stealing the city was easy, especially Baoding City and Langfang City were easy to defend and difficult to attack unless a strong battle was launched.

The generals and elites came to attack the city. But if the elites of the Imperial Palace left the city, wouldn't the Imperial Palace be in danger?

No one would take such a big risk.
