Chapter 985
Regrouping
Luwa displayed his insidious and despicable nature to the fullest extent, but unfortunately Yang Xia was no fool and saw through his intentions at a glance.
Yang Xia threw the shell he was holding back into the box, then clapped his hands.
“Go back and tell Ruwa that our Yan Kingdom doesn’t need your help. Go back to where you came from!”
"General Meng Yu, see the guest out!"
Yang Xia's face turned extremely ugly. He immediately ordered the guest to leave, then turned around and returned to his seat, not even glancing at Colin again, his heart filled with disdain.
"Your Majesty, we beg you, please give us a chance. Our Ivory Kingdom truly wants to help the Yan Kingdom."
Colin was startled, not expecting to be kicked out so soon. He wouldn't be able to explain it to Ruva when he got back, and he kept trying to plead for leniency.
"Chief Ke, please do so!"
Colin wanted to stay and cause trouble, but General Meng Yu rudely asked him to leave.
"Chief, what should we do now? Should we just go back and report to the king?"
The subordinates hadn't expected this outcome; they were kicked out of Yan State as soon as they arrived, which was both embarrassing and extremely difficult.
If they can't even do this simple thing right, of course they won't be able to explain it to Ruva when they get back.
As the ruler of a nation, Ruwa might severely punish their mountain stronghold if he gets angry.
"Of course we can't just go back like this; we can't cause trouble for our mountain stronghold."
Colin was also extremely anxious, but he knew he couldn't go back; they knew Ruva's character quite well.
"Chief, what should we do next? We can't stay, and we can't go back. This is so frustrating."
His men also felt that this matter was very difficult to handle; if it wasn't handled well, the entire village would be in real trouble.
Colin fell silent. He decided to think of another way; he couldn't just go back like this, or rather, he didn't dare to go back at all.
"We're not going back no matter what, so we have no choice but to try anything now."
"Let's find a place to settle down nearby, and when those two countries go to war, we'll forcefully help Yan. By then, they won't be able to deny it."
In the end, Colin had no choice but to come up with this idea, hoping to make use of his shamelessness.
Even though he was kicked out, he didn't dare go back and tell Ruva, so he could only try to muddle through the waters like this.
Colin's approach was ridiculous, but for him, it was the only option he could think of.
And so, Colin and his men secretly hid near Yan Kingdom, waiting for the moment when Yan Kingdom and Moonlight Kingdom would go to war.
Yang Xia knew nothing about these things, but he wouldn't care about anything else.
All you need to know is that the goal is to ensure that Tanawu never returns, and to teach the Moonlight Kingdom a harsh lesson.
Finally, the day of war arrived. Tanawu personally led his elite troops and generals to the gates of Yan Kingdom with great momentum.
"Immediately conquer Yan Kingdom and bombard them with our new weapons!"
With great confidence, Tanawu ordered his men to immediately open fire on Yan Kingdom, a moment he had been eagerly anticipating.
As early as when Yang Xia of Yan Kingdom first challenged him, Tanawu had this idea: to destroy Yan Kingdom.
In the other world, everyone respected Tanawu immensely, dutifully offering him their most precious gifts every year. Yang Xia was the first person to rebel against him.
From that moment on, Tanawu had already harbored murderous intent. However, Yang Xia's subsequent actions were too unexpected. Yan Kingdom rose rapidly in a short period of time, leaving Moonlight Kingdom far behind, which is why Tanawu dared not act rashly.
Now that he has this new weapon and has successfully destroyed Yang Xia's electromagnetic wave container, it is the best time to eliminate Yang Xia.
Tanawu angrily ordered his soldiers to form ranks, ready to storm the gates of Yan Kingdom. Once completely captured, he intended to swiftly raze Yan Kingdom to the ground to vent his rage.
His new weapon is called the "Mind-Control Gun," which can completely control a person's brainwaves, causing them to quickly lose consciousness.
This new weapon is quite terrifying; once it hits the opponent, the opponent will have no ability to resist.
"Your Majesty, Tanawu has already set up his battle formation and is about to launch an attack on us."
General Meng Yu was still very nervous after seeing the situation before him, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
"Bring me my binoculars. Don't worry, I've been waiting for them to come over."
"The real show is about to begin. I want to see how incredibly crazy Tanawu is."
Yang Xia actually showed a faint smile. He had General Meng Yu quietly move the electromagnetic wave container to the city gate, right next to him, and the power supply was already prepared.
At this moment, Tanawu was still extremely proud. As long as there were no electromagnetic signals, their new weapons would be invincible.
Both sides then took their positions, each waiting for the battle to officially begin.
"All personnel, listen to my command, prepare for launch. Three, two, one... Launch!"
Tanawu loudly issued the order.
Yang Xia did just one thing: he plugged in the power cord to the electromagnetic wave container. And then a miracle happened.
The gunmen tried their best to aim with their "mind-controlling guns," but not a single shot hit a Yan soldier.
"This doesn't make sense! What's going on?"
The soldiers of Moonlight Kingdom were dumbfounded. They thought there was something wrong with their eyes. This high-end weapon was supposed to be very powerful, but now even aiming had become a problem.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! Our 'Bewitching Spear' can't aim at the enemy at all; we can't hit them with a single shot!"
The gunmen were terrified and quickly relayed the news to Tanawu.
Tanawu, of course, also saw this situation and was puzzled as to why such a high-end weapon seemed to have no effect.
"No, the electromagnetic container of Yan Country was clearly destroyed by us. How could this happen? Try it again!"
Tanawu still couldn't believe what he was seeing. His head was buzzing, and the scene was completely different from what he had imagined.
The initial plan was that once this advanced new weapon was used, the Yan soldiers would retreat without a fight, having no way to contend with them. However, the scene before them was completely different; the Yan army was unharmed and even looked at them as if they were a joke.
Meanwhile, those using Red Star phones were surprised to find that 5G signals had reappeared.
"Great! 5G signal is back, and our Red Star phones are still the most advanced."
Many Red Star mobile phone users were overjoyed, knowing that these situations were only temporary and that choosing Red Star mobile phones was the right decision.
Tanawu was completely dumbfounded at this point. He even personally took to the field and used the new weapon "Mind-Bending Gun" to aim, but found that it was indeed interfered with by the electromagnetic waves from the container, and he couldn't aim at all.
In other words, what he considered to be a new type of weapon was nothing but a pile of junk.
Tanawu's heart sank. He knew he had made a huge blunder this time. All his focus had been on the new weapon, and he hadn't prepared any other more advanced weapons.
Now that the "Mind-Bending Gun" is useless, this battle is simply impossible to continue.
But having already led his soldiers to the gates of Yan Kingdom with great momentum, should he just retreat like this? If he did, Moonlight Kingdom would become a complete laughingstock in this other world.
Tanawu dared not issue an order to withdraw his troops, and could only bite the bullet and order his soldiers to take out other weapons to attack Yan Kingdom.
"Pass on my order: immediately bring out other weapons and attack the Yan Kingdom!"
Tanawu reluctantly gave the order, but the other soldiers were dumbfounded; the other weapons were simply not adequately prepared.
As per Tanawu's previous instructions, each of them carried a "mind-controlling gun," believing that this was sufficient, and they did not bring any other high-end weapons.
Tanawu was indeed too careless this time, thinking that he had victory in the bag and did not consider other aspects at all. Everything was under Yang Xia's control.
To this day, Tanawu still can't figure out where the problem lies, even though he clearly conducted a thorough investigation beforehand.
Moreover, Chun from the Shadow Organization was the one he trusted most. It was Chun who told him personally that he had destroyed the electromagnetic wave container, so there was no doubt about it.
Did Yang Xia have prior preparations and possess another electromagnetic wave container? That seems unlikely.
Although he knew Yang Xia was exceptionally skilled, he never expected such an unexpected situation to occur, catching Tanawu completely off guard.
"Your Majesty, we didn't bring any high-end weapons at all; we only have some ordinary weapons with us."
Those around him couldn't help but tell Tanawu about this reality: continuing to fight like this was like throwing an egg against a rock.
The moment they realized the new weapon was no longer effective, they understood everything; they were utterly doomed.
"Enough with the nonsense, charge! Even if it costs us our lives, we must defeat Yan!"
Tanawu was well aware of the reality before him and was filled with rage, but he didn't know how to vent it.
Now, there was no way out but to grit his teeth and charge forward. He could only angrily order his soldiers to attack Yan Kingdom with all their might.
The soldiers of the Moonlight Kingdom dared not say anything more; they could only take out the ordinary weapons at hand and charge forward desperately.
How could their ordinary weapons possibly compete with Yan's high-end weaponry? The result was predictable: in no time, they were utterly defeated by Yan.
Yang Xia stood silently on the city wall, watching everything unfold before him, completely under his control.
Seeing the panicked state of Moonlight Kingdom, a relieved smile appeared on his face.
The incredibly arrogant Tanawu has finally learned his lesson.
"Don't panic, everyone. With the strength of our Moonlight Kingdom, we will definitely be able to defeat the Flame Kingdom."
Seeing the soldiers' panicked state, Tanawu quickly reassured them, knowing that such a situation would only make it easier to lose the battle.
Now that things have developed to this point, Tanawu felt that the most important thing to do was to stabilize the situation. If they could turn the tide, they could successfully overcome this crisis.
I'll figure something out myself. With the strength of the Moonlight Kingdom, a comeback is entirely possible.
However, Tanawu completely underestimated the strength of Yan Kingdom. Yang Xia ordered his soldiers to launch a counterattack with the most advanced weapons, and Moonlight Kingdom was beaten so badly that it had no chance to fight back.
"Your Majesty, you are wise and insightful. Everything is exactly as you predicted. The soldiers of Moonlight Kingdom are already in complete chaos."
After seeing this, Meng Yu looked at Yang Xia with admiration once again. He thought Yang Xia was simply a god, always able to make such uncanny predictions, as if he could know the outcome of things in advance.
I remember when we were preparing for the war, General Meng Yu was extremely anxious.
Yang Xia seemed relaxed and carefree, not taking it seriously at all. He didn't even make any strategic plans. His daily life was no different from usual, and he didn't have any of the tension that comes with a battle.
Now it's no wonder Yang Xia was so calm; everything was within his expectations, making him even more amazing than a god.
Yang Xia smiled faintly and said nothing; all of this was within his expectations.
All the previous actions were merely to lull Tanawu into a false sense of security.
This is nobody's fault but Tanawu's own. He has always been arrogant and overconfident, which is why he was blinded and believed the illusions created by Yan Kingdom.
It's too late now. Yan's electromagnetic wave containers still exist, rendering their new weapons completely ineffective.
The soldiers of Moonlight Kingdom wandered aimlessly across the battlefield like headless flies, stubbornly fighting against Yan Kingdom with their ordinary weapons, only to find themselves unable to even put up a fight.
The soldiers of Moonlight Kingdom had completely lost their confidence and were routed. Tanawu was sheltered behind the soldiers' armor.
After all, he is the ruler of a country, and he cannot die on the battlefield like this, otherwise the Moonlight Kingdom will be in complete chaos.
Therefore, no matter what, they always want to do their best to protect Tanawu's safety.
Tanawu was in a terrible state, being protected by soldiers as they prepared to retreat. Now, even if he didn't want to accept this reality, it was impossible for him to do so.
At that moment, the soldier next to Tanawu was also shot dead.
As Tanawu saw more and more corpses lying around him, he panicked. He knew he was in big trouble and might not be able to get back.
That damned pride! If we had retreated immediately upon discovering the new weapon was ineffective, we might not have suffered such heavy losses, and we wouldn't be in such dire straits.
But it was too late to say anything now. Tanawu didn't care about saving face anymore and prepared to retreat in a sorry state.
Even if I have to crawl back to the Moonlit Kingdom, I'll crawl back even if I have to die. As long as I'm alive, there's still a chance to rebuild. (End of Chapter)
