The city lord Shiguang leaned against the parapet and looked at the army outside the city with worry.
The roar of an engine was heard suddenly, and Jack transformed and landed beside everyone.
Hot Wheels couldn't help but speak, "Gray Yao, you're finally here!"
"What's the situation?" Jack asked , leaning close to the city wall.
Thunderbolt looked at the army outside the city.
"Golden Iron Beast claims to have an army of 100,000. Judging from the size of this army, even if it doesn't have 100,000, it probably has more than 60,000 troops."
Jack didn't particularly care about it. It was common to exaggerate the number of troops during marches and battles to cause the enemy to misjudge.
Jin Tieshou was a capable general, so he naturally knew this.
Hot Wheels lay on the wall without any fighting spirit, "Wow, even if there are not 100,000 people, there are still 60,000 Black Iron Beasts, which are too numerous to count."
"There are only 30,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people in our City of Time. What should we do? What should we do?"
Luo Luo took a step forward and faced everyone, "There is only one way now!"
The City Lord and the Human Torch both looked over, but Jack knew what he was going to say.
Luo Luo suggested, "The City of Time is running low on energy and combat power, so we have no choice but to retreat!"
"Where can we retreat to?" Hot Wheels was a little flustered.
The city lord's voice was extremely firm, "No, the City of Time is our home, we are not going anywhere!"
"Oh~" With a sigh, Lolo looked at Jack .
This biker warrior has decent command skills, and it can definitely be seen that.
"Guiyao, please try to persuade them."
Jack refused, "No, although the City of Time is easy to attack and difficult to defend, we are not without a chance."
"Oh?" Lolo and City Lord Shiguang glanced at him.
Looking at the army outside the city, Jack explained.
"Don't forget that the two great war kings of the beast tribe are eyeing the Energy City covetously."
"If Wild Ape takes away half of his troops, then the army he leads will definitely be understaffed and will be at a disadvantage in the conflict with Tiger King."
"So, the time of the Golden Iron Beast is limited. As long as we hold on for a few days, he will retreat!"
"That makes sense." Thunderbolt nodded in approval.
Luo Luo spread his hands, "But it's hard to say whether we can last a day."
"This is our home. Even if we can't hold out for a day, we will fight them to the death!" Thunderbolt clenched his fists and looked determined.
"Fight to the death!"
"Fight to the death!"
"Fight to the death!"
The warriors of the City of Time raised their arms and shouted!
The central command ship of the Black Iron Beast Army.
Jintetsumon looked towards the City of Time.
The city lord Shi Guang stood with Thunderbolt and the blue warrior, with a child next to them.
He sighed, "The City of Time is united in purpose, and it will be another fierce battle."
When Qingtie Beast heard these voices, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Every sound reminded him of the disastrous defeat of the vanguard army.
He stepped forward and asked for battle, "General, please let me lead the army to attack first, I will definitely take down the city!"
Zi Tie Beast retorted, "No, the morale of the City of Time is high, and our army is exhausted. The consumed combat energy needs time to recover. We cannot let our fighting spirit be dampened at this moment!"
After rebutting, he said to Jin Tieshou, "General, I have a plan."
"Oh?" Jintie Beast became interested.
Zi Tie Beast explained, "Our army is exhausted and will definitely not launch an attack today. I believe the City of Time also knows this."
"We can seize this opportunity and use the opponent's misjudgment to capture the king!"
Jin Tie Beast agreed, "Okay, I'll do as you say!"
"Yes, if I fail, I would rather die than go back!" Zi Tie Beast issued a military order.
Jin Tie Beast interrupted, "Don't talk nonsense, I'll wait for you to come back."
…
In the City of Time, Jack fell into deep thought.
According to the plot, the Purple Iron Beast will launch a surprise attack tonight and the city lord will be held hostage.
Wait, the city lord is being held hostage...
A tempting idea suddenly occurred to him.
The enemy is known to launch a surprise attack tonight.
I have great influence in the City of Time, so I might as well make use of this incident.
For example, he first used the night defense to quarrel with Thunderbolt and the city lord.
When the night attack comes true and the city lord dies, facts will prove that I was right to fight to the end.
By then, you can use public opinion to coerce Thunderbolt to hand over the City of Time's defense token and become the new lord of the City of Time!
Although the 'City of Time' is easy to attack but difficult to defend, most of the people in the city are old, weak and sick.
But this is at least a city, and there are tens of thousands of people in it.
Once you become the city lord, you will truly be the one above everyone else!
Do you really want to do this?
Jack hesitated.
But a voice kept urging me in my head.
Just do it, once you succeed you will be above everyone else. Think about it carefully, how much can you do with the resources of the City of Time?
"Bang, bang, bang!" Thunderfire approached, his steady voice ringing out.
"Guiyao, are you worried about something?"
Jack turned sideways with some helplessness, "It seems that my face has betrayed me."
Thunderbolt said, "If you have something on your mind, just speak it out. Hiding it will only cause it to rot and accumulate."
Taking a deep breath, Jack made up his mind.
First, it is not safe to do so. Second, there are many smart people in the city, such as Thunderbolt and Lolo.
Third, changing the fate of the city lord's death will gain disturbance points.
Fourth, your own incarnation can be resurrected infinitely, so even if you have nothing, you can still reach the top.
Maybe there is a bit of childhood nostalgia in it.
Jack collected his thoughts and looked serious.
"Human Torch, I'm going to tell you one thing, you must believe me!"
"I will." The Human Torch nodded affirmatively.
Looking at the army outside the city, Jack analyzed the answer.
"It is true that the Black Iron Beasts are a tired army, but that does not mean they will not take action tonight."
"Look, there are several thousand elite Black Iron Beast troops on the transport ship. They have not suffered any casualties."
"If I were the enemy commander, I would definitely launch a surprise attack at night, or even capture the city lord!"
The more Thunderbolt listened, the more serious he became. "I believe you. This is a serious matter. Let's go report it to the city lord!"
"good!"
The two men turned into two sports cars, one blue and one red, and sped towards the city.
In the Palace of the City of Time...
Shi Guang leaned forward slightly, "You mean, they will launch a sneak attack tonight?"
"That's right!" Jack said firmly.
Luo Luo also stroked his chin and began to think.
"It is indeed possible."
"Really? Should we mobilize all forces at night? I don't want to be killed by a sword in my dream!" Hot Wheels' face was full of excitement.
Shi Guang looked up and said, "It is indeed possible, but I cannot be sure."
Jack frowned. Could it be that the city lord disagreed?
He couldn't help but want to persuade her again.
The city lord coughed and said, "So, we can't mobilize everyone."
"If we really do this, we will only face the army of black iron beasts tomorrow in a exhausted state."
"Gray Yao listen to my orders!"
"I'm here!" Jack stepped forward and looked at the city lord.
Shi Guang took out the token and announced, "Gray Yao is in charge of the 1,000-man team of the City of Time. Join the garrison tonight to defend against the night attack of the Black Iron Beast!"
