MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again-Chapter 1326 - 302: Siege

The Liu Family Master stood at the Hebei City Gate with thousands of family members, smiling as they greeted the approaching bridal convoy.

The city was covered in red, festooned with lanterns to celebrate this moment.

As the convoy stopped, Liu An dismounted, took a few steps forward, knelt before the Liu Family Master: "Greetings, Father. Your son has successfully returned with the bride!"

"Good, good, good, you are the groom today, make sure to show your best!" The Liu Family Master patted Liu An’s shoulder, then helped him up with a smile.

Afterward, the wedding ceremony commenced.

Joyous music rang out, the bridal sedan was carried into Hebei City, heading toward the Liu Residence.

Guests filled the seats, drinking wine and feasting.

"First bow to Heaven and Earth!"

"Second bow to the parents!"

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

"Ceremony complete!"

With the complex wedding procedures finished, the couple officially became husband and wife in the witness of all present.

The representative sent by the Lin Family, the father of the Lin Family woman, actually did not look pleased.

In his view, his daughter could completely match with a more outstanding man, yet she was wasted on this Liu Family prodigal son, what a curse!

Unfortunately, one cannot fight against superior power; even as a branch family head of the Lin Family, he had no resistance against the family leader’s decision, having no choice but to comply.

Just as the Lin Family’s father was filled with grievances, the Liu Family Master, beaming, approached him and said, "Father-in-law, let’s have a drink!"

Saying this, a nearby servant girl brought two cups of fine wine, placing them before the two men.

The Lin Family’s father did not refuse; the tree is set, why invite trouble? Showing a sour face would only make himself look bad, suggesting inner discord within the Lin Family.

With a change of mind, the Lin Family’s father displayed a smile, warmly taking the Liu Family Master’s hand: "Come, come, today is the joyful day of my daughter and your son, henceforth we are one family, let’s keep close contact in the future!"

"Hahaha, come, drink!"

Just as the two were about to toast, a thunderous explosion erupted in the sky, and a soldier burst into the banquet, shouting towards the Liu Family Master, "Master, it’s bad, Hebei City is under attack by unknown forces, the gate has fallen, they are advancing towards us!"

Given the urgency, the soldier disregarded secrecy and blurted out everything in one breath.

Upon hearing about the attack on Hebei City, all the guests were stunned.

Only one thought occupied their minds: who is so daring as to attack Hebei City? Isn’t it pure suicide?

Of course, suicide not because they can’t conquer Hebei City, but due to Lin Family’s retaliation afterward.

Many were contemplating escape to avoid involvement.

As for the Lin Family’s father, upon hearing the news, his brows furrowed deeply, it shouldn’t be, who would idly come to attack Hebei City? It holds no strategic value, plus, targeting Hebei City is a provocation to the Lin Family. In the division of Sky Domain, the Long Family is weakest, unlikely to stir trouble. As for the Nie and Lin Families, they are currently in a semi-ambiguous stage, having allied to resist Lu Wushen a few years ago, their alliance contract has yet to be torn, conflict between Nie and Lin would indicate one possesses a Martial God.

Thus, the Long Family is improbable, the Nie Family is unlikely, then where did this army come from to challenge the Lin Family?

The Lin Family’s father couldn’t figure it out, turning to the Liu Family Master, he asked, "Liu Family Master, do you know who wants to oppose my Lin Family and your Liu Family?"

At this moment, compared to the Lin Family’s father’s composure, the Liu Family Master was much less composed; upon hearing the attack on Hebei City, his mind was like an explosion, chaotic, only responding when asked by the Lin Family’s father, "No...no...no idea!"

Seeing the Liu Family Master’s chaotic manner, the Lin Family’s father was filled with disdain; he wondered how such an imbecile became a family head!

Clearly, the Liu Family had been comfortable for too long, losing their sharpness, marrying into such a family was a disgrace to the Lin Family!

The Lin Family’s father considered taking charge of Hebei City but realized he lacked rightful authority despite being affiliated with the Lin Family.

Reluctantly, he advised the Liu Family Master, "Father-in-law, with the enemy at the gates, we must not lose composure, we should immediately organize our troops to retaliate and capture these invaders!"

Upon hearing the Lin Family’s father, the frantic Liu Family Master regained his senses: "Ah! Yes, yes, quickly, quickly! Gather the troops and kill all these intruders!"

With the Liu Family Master’s orders, the Liu Family elite responded immediately, along with Hebei City’s garrison, three Liu Family Martial Emperors, a multitude of Martial Kings, and elite forces, they should hold for a while.

Witnessing the Liu Family Master’s lack of initiative after giving orders, the Lin Family’s father silently endured his anger; never had he seen someone so incompetent!

"Father-in-law, shouldn’t we evacuate the guests now?"

Upon hearing this, the Liu Family Master suddenly realized his surroundings; numerous guests were watching him intently, amidst the turmoil, hoping for Liu Family’s protection as they prepared to escape with their troops stationed outside Hebei City. Whether their forces were attacked remained unknown.

"Yes, yes, quickly, escort the guests out of Hebei City, ensure their safety!"

During the disarray at the Liu Residence, three strong presences obeyed the master’s command, soaring skyward, dashing towards the Hebei City Gate.

The three Martial Gods of the Liu Family had deployed!

Within half an hour of Qin Long Guards’ assault, the Hebei City Gate crumbled swiftly, and this without Qin Long Guards using tactical formations.

It must be said, the Liu Family had indeed been complacent for too long, Hebei City’s garrison was unstable, its combat power pitifully weak. Initially, Qin Hong considered using formations directly to break through, but as Qin Long Guards charged within meters of the gate, the Hebei City Gate garrison finally reacted.

Subsequently, Qin Hong abandoned that necessity; such idiotic forces didn’t require formation tactics.

That would be akin to using a cannon to swat flies, pure wastefulness!

Therefore, Qin Hong simply ordered an attack, dismissing formation strategy.

Though intelligence indicated strong high-level combat power within the Liu Family, cold numbers couldn’t replace genuine combat experience.

An enemy with strength but devoid of battle proficiency was easily managed.

Hence, the thirty-thousand strong Qin Long Guards, with little effort, scaled the still-under-construction walls, indulged in slaughter. The delay wasn’t due to warfare but because Liu Family soldiers kept fleeing, complicating the killing.

As for Qin Hong, he remained uninvolved, casually observing.

After seizing the gate, Qin Long Guards began advancing inward.

Upon receiving reports, the Liu Family dispatched additional troops from Hebei City, converging from all sides, launching attacks against Qin Long Guards.

"Operate in groups, engage freely but remain close, ready to regroup anytime."

Under Qin Hong’s directive, thirty thousand Qin Long Guards dispersed into units of ten.

Entering the city initiated street combat; decentralization, though unspectacular, stood one of the most apt tactics.

Soon, chaos ensued.

Sounds of slaughter echoed continuously.

Yet...

Liu Family’s senior officers sensed something amiss as they listened.

Those cries and screams seemed all emitted by their Liu Family soldiers.

Indeed, they were laments before Liu Family soldiers’ deaths.

Organized into squads of ten, the Qin Long Guards displayed clear division of labor, instigating small military formations, possessing combat power that nearly crushed Liu Family soldiers, rendering a one-sided massacre.

"Who exactly are you?! Daring to assault our Hebei City! Are you not afraid of Lin Family’s wrath?!" Liu Family’s senior officer shouted up towards Qin Hong, standing aloof atop the city wall, watching indifferently.
