The "General's Palace" has a total of five floors, and the fifth floor resembles an ancient castle tower. In fact, this "castle tower" looks more like a very large and extremely tall "pavilion", with a blue-black glazed tile roof, and eight stout and tall stone pillars supporting it.

After Li Zhen ascended to the fifth floor, he looked down.

Lao Shi seemed to be a little conservative in what he said. Now the open space outside the "General's Palace" is densely covered with green. Combat vehicles were in place, and the few guards on the periphery of the General's Palace had been disarmed. The formation of the procession drove into the city, and there were almost no ordinary people on the streets.

What Lao Shi said was true, he had indeed never seen some weapons. And maybe that's what they got from Southern Luzon, or maybe they've made it themselves over the course of five years.

He took a few steps forward and stood at the edge of the rooftop. The style here is retro, and it looks like an ancient castle. And now he is the besieged defender of the city, just waiting for the "enemy" under the city to give the order to attack the city.

Lao Shi was also supported by a person and walked to his side.

Once he got rid of the cage-like atmosphere of the conference room and saw the army of steel and gunpowder beneath the city, the old man's self-confidence seemed to regain a little.

He took a deep breath, stood side by side with Li Zhen at the head of the city, and stretched out his finger to point: "General Li, look. These are our people, our strength. ”

Li Zhen was silent and did not speak.

Lao Shi smiled: "But that's only part of it. It's part of the amount of power we have – and there are others who are waiting. Today you can kill us, but these people will fire at you. And the rest of the people. It will plunge the whole of Yuzhou into complete chaos. ”

"But if you choose to work with us today, we will not blame the past - our strength is your strength, and those who are watching will be interested and will turn to us. You're different from Xiao Heng—he's just a puppet. But you ...... Your wisdom has been shown to us. You should be a true leader. ”

The others stood behind Lao Shi.

Others—in Li Zhen's view, perhaps the "masters" who had originally planned to deal with him, had a renewed look of vigilance and fear in their eyes—which meant that they were trying to think again as a combatant or a slayer, rather than being overrun by mere fear.

In other words, these people's brains have come back to life—from the same depression as before.

In fact, it seems that they should indeed have such self-confidence.

Whether it's a vehicle weapon that shines with a luster of steel, or a silent elite soldier, it can give people such confidence. At all times, the side with more people is naturally stronger, and the lonely person will always be despised by others.

The people above the "city" were divided into two factions—many and one man.

As for the rest of the building...... Li Zhen never expected them to stand behind him at such a time.

So he smiled: "You want me to be a leader? So how do you account to that one? ”

Lao Shi Da Lu laughed, feeling happy because he had regained the initiative in the negotiations: "That one? The Gate of Truth? It's all a joke – we're in Yuzhou. Everything is easy to say when you need them, and if you are allied with you now, you can go anywhere in the world, why bother with them? ”

But Zhu Dipang, who was behind Lao Shi, widened his eyes in surprise: "What did you say?" ”

Lao Shi glanced at him sternly: "Do you really believe that?" Or do you really want to be the second Xiao Heng? ”

"That's the only way out for us!" Zhu Dipong frowned. Tried to pull Lao Shi's arm. But the two bodyguards behind him restrained him in time. They all seemed to be capable of the strength type—the fabric of his arms was torn and peeled off by the vigorous tugging. The body couldn't take a step forward.

But Zhu Dipong continued to roar: "That's the only way out—only then can this world be saved!" ”

The phrase "save the world" sounds like child's play at any given moment. But he said it in that serious and excited tone.

Li Zhen couldn't help laughing - this person was really brainwashed.

Lao Shi let out a sigh of annoyance and shouted, "Take him away!" ”

So the two men were going to take Juddy Pont away.

However, Li Zhen smiled: "Wait." ”

Then he looked at Lao Shi: "I haven't allowed any of you to leave here. ”

Lao Shi was slightly stunned, then frowned, and looked directly into Li Zhen's eyes.

Actually, in his opinion. Just after he said those words and saw these soldiers. The two sides are already on a sort of parity. And at the moment, Li Zhen still seems to be "obsessed" and has not woken up from his previous "sense of control" - he is still trying to issue orders as a controller.

Therefore, he said coldly: "General Li - Li Zhen." Are you really going to be obsessed? ”

Then, without waiting for Li Zhen to answer, he walked straight to the city wall and raised his hands. He shouted to the army under the city: "Today, right here, I, Wang Lei-"

What he was going to say next was probably something quite passionate and incendiary. Then the thousands of people under the city may let out an earth-shattering cry, and the shout will come like a rolling wave and rush to the top of the city.

But his words did not continue.

Because in full view of everyone, in the eyes of the dozens of people behind him and the thousands of people under the city, Li Zhen slowly stepped forward, lifted his collar, and let go.

Lao Shi only said his name. Then his body fell straight from the top of the city like a fallen leaf, and his hands and feet were still dancing in a panic for a few seconds after falling, as if trying to grasp something. Then he let out a high-pitched cry that was very disproportionate to his age, and after a few seconds the shouting came to an abrupt halt—

Bang.

The body bounced on the ground, about a dozen centimeters high.

Under the city, there was a dead silence.

Li Zhen glanced down expressionlessly, retracted his gaze, and patted his hands: "I said earlier, you don't know what kind of person I am. He really didn't understand the situation. ”

Then he turned around in the eyes of the men like crazy people. said loudly: "Listen, I'm Li Zhen." ”

"I don't care what faction or affiliation you used to be, or what you're here to do today. But from now on, within half an hour, you have a chance to get out of here. ”

"In the past, Xiao Heng wanted to engage in secession, so Xiao Heng died. And the rest of his followers are on the roof of this building today—I only punish them severely, and you, once upon a time, were all Imperial soldiers. If you leave here within half an hour, you will still be an Imperial soldier in the future. ”

His voice was loud. Articulate words clearly. Even without the help of a loudspeaker, it still spreads over a vast area around it. It was as if thunder rumbled over everyone's head.

Li Zhen continued: "Maybe one of your commanders is still obsessed, and the duty of a soldier is to carry out orders. But today, as the supreme military governor of Yuzhou, I grant you this authority in accordance with the regulations of the battlefield—those who intend to commit treason and besiege the local supreme military commander. Anyone can kill them! ”

"Every one of you has wives and children behind him. So what will happen to you in the future. and their future fate. It's up to you to decide whether you want to live or die! ”

When he had said this, he kept his mouth shut. Take a step back.

Then he turned to look at the group of people opposite—

Their expressions were more complicated now than they were in the conference room.

It was just pure fear. And now there is more anxiety and expectation in the midst of fear. In fact, many people still have luck in their hearts, and this luck stems from the words that Li Zhen said just now.

Some believe that he tried to disarm the ground troops in this way without bloodshed—like Zhuge Kongming's empty city plan. And this seems to show that this Li Zhen really cares about the forces under the city. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had to go through that much effort.

Then a certain thought arose in the hearts of these people - if those below were loyal enough to them and did not retreat...... Perhaps there is still a silver lining to the better.

Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that the two people who were restraining themselves were slightly stunned because of Lao Shi's death, Zhu Dibang broke free from their hands and showed an almost paranoid smile on his face: "Wife and children? Do you think this kind of excuse is really useful on such occasions? ”

Li Zhen looked at him with almost pity: "In your opinion, it may be an excuse. Yet here for me ......"

He turned to look at the army under the city again. For almost a minute, there was no commotion. His gaze swept over the faces of the men closer to the city—as if they hadn't heard anything just now. At some point, man is indeed a rather strange animal—one that can flinch in horror at a trivial trifle, or one who will not be afraid to die at some empty promise that is far away.

This may really be a group of "loyal" people. But in Li Zhen's eyes, they misused and squandered their loyalty, just like those fanatical believers at the Gate of Truth.

So he sighed and said, "But with me...... I'm just doing my best. ”

Zhu Dipong frowned suspiciously. In fact, it was not only him, but also everyone else who found this matter a little difficult to understand. Such a Li Zhen, who has directly and indirectly harvested so many lives, would really care about this kind of thing?

"The wives and children behind them"?

But there was not much time left for them to be amazed. Li Zhen ruthlessly broke the remaining trace of luck in the hearts of some people in the next moment.

With a handover of the spear in his hand, he pierced Zhu Dipang's heart.

The killing was even more astonishing than the one a few minutes ago, as almost everyone thought he was still waiting for the people in the city to express a clear attitude before thinking about what to do.

…… In fact, he didn't think about talking about it from the very beginning - he really did it from the beginning!

And whether it is Lao Shi or the rest of them, they are all being led by his nose like fools!

They have always thought that this Li Zhen may be bluffing, and this method is too common in negotiations - the price rises and the money is repaid on the ground. One side is unusually tough at the outset, and then forces the opponent to make far more concessions than expected under intense pressure......

Almost everyone here is a master. And it is because of this that habitual thinking makes them make a rather ridiculous judgment - they really followed him to the rooftop, instead of making the last fight earlier!

He's just going to execute everyone in public here!

And it was at this time that they finally realized the two words that Li Zhen had said in the conference room-

"Actually, you and many people don't know what kind of person I am."

"And how far can it go?"

The Longinus spear in his hand shook again, and Zhu Dibang's corpse stared at Yuanyuan, and he was also thrown downstairs.

It was at this moment that these people burst out with the most courageous courage.

The Mighty ones pounced on them with their most bloody rage, and a whole dazzling light erupted from the roof of the "General's Mansion" in the blink of an eye.

Flames and frost bombarded the air, and looming figures appeared in the air. Cracks spread across the floor, crumbling into countless tiny stone chips, and sealing every inch of space around it like a rain of flowers.

The surging energy gathered in one place, and the sound of the wind and the roar of the wind was accompanied by the sound of the collapse of the glazed tile roof for hundreds of meters after a second. Two powerful people can wreak terrible damage in the streets, not to mention these twenty or so capable people-

At the same time as Zhu Dibang's body fell to the ground, the entire rooftop on the fifth floor was shrouded in a thick smoke. Nearly every piece of stone and metal shatters into its smallest unit in the shortest amount of time, and is then used to create even more terrifying destruction.

In fact, in such a melee, especially in the melee of dozens of people against one, not everyone's ability can be maximized. It's like what happens in some cartoons, where a few people pounce on another and a scuffle is formed, while the person who should have endured all the attacks emerges from the crowd and escapes a moment later.

It's funny if it's on a TV screen, but when these capable people find out that they're in this situation now, all that's left in their hearts is shock—

No one here is blind!

However, the figure of the "enemy" disappeared almost after two seconds.

The first wave of attacks was in vain in the blink of an eye - their only success was to tear down the roof cover, exposing everyone to the blue sky and sun.

Then came the first scream that stopped abruptly.

One of the "masters" of these capable beings is now in two parts, and is dragging a trail of blood straight downstairs. (To be continued......)
