Chu Ge's approach is very similar to that of Thor back then, leaving almost all the main forces in the main city, because the operation of large cities requires people, and where there are civilians, they need to be protected.

However, Chu Ge is very different from Saul, and it should be said that he has a huge disadvantage. Back then, Thor invested a lot of basic materials in the imperial capital, and he had already made long-term plans. And Chu Ge is different, he didn't make too many basic preparations at all, after all, fighting against Jiang Zhi's forces was originally a pretty sudden thing, if it wasn't for Chu Ci to join, Chu Ge might have surrendered long ago.

Nowadays, the temporary influx of people from other cities into the main city has directly caused the consumption of resources in the main city to be too large, and even the supply of basic materials is very stressful.

If Jiang Feng besieged and did not attack, delaying time, there would definitely be chaos in the main city of Chu Ge. Whether it is civilians or officials, they will be more inclined to surrender, and Jiang Feng can surrender without a fight. But Jiang Feng's purpose, from the very beginning, was not Chu Ge, but Chu Ci.

In the countless siege battles before, Chu Ci basically didn't make a move, so Jiang Feng and Su Kouye didn't even have a chance to fight him, let alone catch Chu Ci. In fact, Chu Ci's comprehensive strength should not be lower than Jiang Feng or Su Koye, at least in a short period of time. But Chu Ci had been cautious, because he had already guessed Jiang Feng's other purpose.

The unification of Northern Province is just a matter of incident, and Jiang Feng's real purpose is to capture Chu Ci in order to force Li Xiuyi's whereabouts.

Because, Chu Ci knew that in this world, only Li Xiuyi now had the ability to open the space door to the underground world.

This matter started a few months ago. At that time, it was Li Xiuyi who first discovered that Mr. Kong was missing.

One day, Li Xiuyi found Chu Ci in a hurry, saying that Mr. Kong was missing.

At that time, Chu Ci was very puzzled, because he had met Mr. Kong a week before. I haven't seen him for a week, so how can I prove that Mr. Kong is missing?

But Li Xiuyi said with certainty that Mr. Kong was missing, but when asked why she was so sure, she couldn't say, or rather, she was still hiding something.

Chu Ci didn't take Mr. Kong's disappearance seriously, after all, Mr. Kong had come and gone without a trace.

For the next few days, Mr. Kong still did not appear.

Chu Ci's heart began to pay attention to this matter. He secretly sent someone to spy on Li Xiuyi, and found that she opened a space door, and after entering, she disappeared without a trace. After a few days, Li Xiuyi

only to reappear, and took the initiative to find Chu Ci.

Chu Ci remembered very well that Li Xiuyi's eyes were red and swollen that day, and he had been sad for several days.

"Chu Ci, I can only ask you for help now."

This is Li Xiuyi's first judgment, that is, to ask Chu Ci for help. Although it turned out that her judgment was very wrong, she didn't know it at that time.

Because Chu Ci is the most authoritative person in the entire Cross Chamber of Commerce, and he is the head of all the presidents of all branches, that is, the first president.

When the Cross Chamber of Commerce was first established, the first president was Mr. Kong's first apprentice. However, because Qianqiu Dream accidentally broke the taboo, he tried to investigate Mr. Kong's true identity, but Mr. Kong erased his memory and expelled him from the Cross Chamber of Commerce.

Since then, Chu Ci has become a proud disciple of Mr. Kong, and gradually became the first president.

In terms of prestige, it is indeed the greatest in Chu Ci, and other presidents cannot be compared at all. Therefore, Li Xiuyi simply discussed with Chu Ci, hoping that Chu Ci would mobilize the entire Cross Chamber of Commerce and prepare to rescue Mr. Kong.

If you want to rescue Mr. Kong, you must know the cause and effect.

Chu Ci actually wanted to know the truth about Mr. Kong for a long time, but he was afraid that he would end up like Qianqiu Meng, so he didn't dare. But Li Xiuyi in front of him is the door to the truth. In the past, Li Xiuyi didn't dare to say it, but now she is very sure that something happened to Mr. Kong, so she is willing to tell the truth. For her, rescuing Mr. Kong is more important than everything.

After some entanglement and brainstorming, Chu Ci finally mustered up the courage and asked Li Xiuyi to tell the truth.

At this point, the secret that Mr. Kong had worked so hard to maintain was known to Chu Ci.

Now that we know the truth, the next step should be to gather the elites of the Cross Chamber of Commerce and launch a rescue operation, right?

But Chu Ci suddenly turned his face, not only did he not rescue, but also imprisoned Li Xiuyi in a very secret place, and put a divination bead in that place, so that no soothsayer could tell Li Xiuyi's whereabouts. Even Si Taofeng of the Cross Chamber of Commerce couldn't do divination.

Li Xiuyi regretted it, she really didn't expect Chu Ci to be that kind of person, Mr. Kong's most proud disciple, why would he be such a person?

Li Xiuyi, who was under house arrest, couldn't do anything, and washed his face with tears every day. She didn't know that it was because of her simplicity and ignorance that Chu Ci's courage was infinitely inflated, and she launched a rebellion early.

The rebellion of the Crusader Chamber of Commerce was very widespread, with countless casualties, and even the president of the branch died a lot. Later in this rebellion, in order to retain the crusaders' viability, Jeongjo took tough measures to launch an internal coup d'état, completely controlling the leadership of the crusaders. Of course, he also dared to do this after confirming that Mr. Kong had disappeared.

Regarding the rebellion within the Cross Chamber of Commerce, Xia Long, Si Taofeng and others witnessed the whole process. After something like this happens, Xia Long worries about the future of Silk Roy and the Cross Chamber of Commerce. But Si Taofeng was worried about someone else.

That is Li Xiuyi.

When it comes to relationships, Si Taofeng and Li Xiuyi don't have much contact, and they haven't even said a few words. To put it simply, there is no friendship. But Mr. Kong once said to Si Taofeng: Li Xiuyi is my daughter-in-law, she is very important to me, and she holds the truth about me. If one day I'm gone, you ask Jiang Feng to find her, because she has an ability, which is something Jiang Feng dreams of.

At that time, Mr. Kong didn't actually know that something would happen to him, and what he said would be years later. Mr. Kong's lifespan is short, so he sometimes explains some things to his subordinates, intentionally or unintentionally.

What he said to Si Taofeng also said to Chu Ci. To put it bluntly, he can't rest assured of Li Xiuyi, but as long as Li Xiuyi has that ability, then Jiang Feng will treat Li Xiuyi as a baby.

It's just that Mr. Kong himself didn't expect that he would have an accident so soon.

After the rebellion of the Cross Chamber of Commerce, there has always been a question in Si Taofeng's heart, that is, why did Li Xiuyi disappear too? Why did Chu Ci dare to launch a mutiny?

After thinking about it, Si Taofeng integrated all the clues and analyzed a more likely situation, that is, the truth that Li Xiuyi had mastered had been known by Chu Ci. It was precisely because Chu Ci already knew too much of the truth that he dared to launch a mutiny.

In the world, no one dared to conclude that Mr. Kong would never return, not even Jecheng did not dare to judge like this, but Chu Ci was very sure and insisted on launching a rebellion.

Then, there should be only two endings for Li Xiuyi, one is killed by Chu Ci, and the other is that Chu Ci is hidden.

Li Xiuyi's value is still very large, and it is not very likely that Chu Ci will kill her, and the most likely situation is to hide her.

Si Taofeng, who came to this conclusion, found Jiang Feng and told him what he thought.

After that, Jiang Feng had already begun to plan how to use Chu Ge to draw out Chu Ci.
