Chapter 221: Chapter 87 How Many Composite Battalions Are There in Huadu?_3

Not to mention one minute, in front of them, the Guard Brigade I prided myself on probably couldn’t last even 10 seconds.

He looked up at the six-barreled rotary cannon on the high ground already aimed at his position, gave a self-mocking smile, and then replied:

"Indeed, it’s merely wishful thinking of certain big figures."

"How could you spare Jinling City... just like Huadu, they wouldn’t spare Jinling City either."

"Since that’s the case..."

Jin Zhong suddenly lifted his head, and his eyes became resolute.

"Since that’s the case, I ask you---no, I beg you..."

As he spoke, Jin Zhong half-kneeled, then said:

"I beg you, declare war on Jinling as soon as possible!"

As the words fell, Chen Jian was stunned.

He had not at all expected Jin Zhong to say such words.

Has he already planned to betray the Mechanical God Sect?

No, this clearly isn’t betrayal...

Chen Jian wanted to ask, but at this time, Jin Zhong continued speaking:

"Huadu’s main forces have already reached the north of Jinling City, less than 30 kilometers away."

"They have already learned of the fall of Jinling Ruins, and thus have turned their aim towards Jinling City."

"They plunder the surrounding towns like locusts, slaughtering countless civilians."

"We’ve lost too many troops in the Jinling Ruins, unable to resist their offensive anymore. The reinforcements mobilized from other cities can’t make it in time."

"On the northern battlefield, we can at most hold them off for another day."

"After one day, even if reinforcements arrive, they could only be hastily thrown into a battlefield that has already collapsed."

"Jinling will surely fall, although the Saint might not have foreseen this, I can already see the end!"

"No one can stop Huadu’s offensive----except you!"

"I plead with you, show mercy for Jinling’s civilians!"

"Capture Jinling City, hold Jinling City!"

"At least, don’t let the innocents there die under Huadu’s atrocities!"

Jin Zhong recounted everything about the situation in Jinling City to Chen Jian like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, and Chen Jian stared in disbelief at his expression. Immediately, Fu Xi’s voice sounded in his ear.

"Life-sign recognition completed, lie detection algorithm calculation result: 89% credible."

"Comrade Commander, the likelihood that the other side is not lying is high."

Chen Jian blinked slightly, softly saying, "Understood."

Then, he looked directly at Jin Zhong and asked:

"Do you really want to save Jinling City’s civilians?"

"Yes, otherwise, I have no reason to explain the situation to you!"

Jin Zhong said categorically:

"This Huadu force is incredibly strong. If they occupy Jinling City, the next step will inevitably be using Jinling City’s supplies to continue attacking the Jinling Ruins."

"If not for the civilians in Jinling City, letting them forcefully recruit the civilians there, using those terrible weapons to attack the ruins where you are, letting both sides suffer losses, would be the best choice for the Mechanical God Sect."

"But I know, the Holy Trinity would never stand by while civilians are tragically killed."

"I can betray the sect, can betray the Saint, but I cannot betray... the Holy Trinity!"

"Understood."

Chen Jian let out a deep breath.

After a moment of silence, he spoke:

"You’re lucky you made the same choice as us."

"Although our ideologies are different, like you, we also don’t want to see civilians slaughtered."

"In this world, population is indeed a valuable resource..."

Pausing for a moment, Chen Jian continued:

"We will stop those Huadu people."

"As for the ownership of Jinling City... we can negotiate further."

As Chen Jian’s words ended, Jin Zhong suddenly stood up, then asked:

"You don’t want Jinling City?"

"We want it, of course we do."

Chen Jian smiled slightly, answering:

"But our approach is different."

"In any case, you can go back."

"When the sun rises, we will launch the attack."

"Those people from Huadu... are no more than ants to us."

"Ants?"

Jin Zhong frowned slightly, then said:

"I suggest you... don’t underestimate them."

"As I said, those Huadu people are very strong."

"You..."

"Very strong?"

Chen Jian retorted with disdain:

"How many composite battalions do they have?"

"Come, look up, and see what this is!"

As he finished speaking, the lights behind Chen Jian suddenly turned on in the passage.

Immediately, a huge machine rolled out with a roar.

Jin Zhong looked at the giant war machine, pausing for a moment in astonishment before suddenly kneeling down forcefully.

Then, he spoke with trembling lips:

"Saint... Holy Elephant..."

"Holy Trinity Holy Elephant!"
