Chapter 396: Antecedents and Consequences

"You have no conscience, why did you only come back today...... Woo, our mother almost died, do you know! ”

Si Jiyue hugged Li Ba, beating and beating, her face full of sadness and grievances, and tears flowing.

Li Ba was still angry in his heart, but when he saw his woman's appearance, no matter how big the grievance was, he immediately disappeared, and he said good words of relief.

"Silly, don't cry...... When you cry, Lao Tzu's heart will break! ”

His face sank at the same time as he comforted. Knowing that during this period of his absence, major changes must have occurred in Xibu City.

"It's the boss!"

"The boss is back, open the city gate!"

On the city tower, Yang Jian, Huang Ju and others were also sure that their boss was really back at this moment. When they were ordered to open the gates, they jumped down from the walls and ran over.

"Boss, you're finally back!" Yang Jian's face was full of excitement.

"If you don't come back, the brothers won't be able to support it!" The yellow bird was also pleasantly surprised.

Liang Jie also came over. When he looked at Li Ba, the little guy was also inexplicably happy, but his eyes flashed a touch of gloom.

"You two shit, you were very ruthless just now!"

Li Ba threw a 'settling account after the autumn' look at Yang Jian and Huang Yan, and then turned to look at Liang Jie, and said with a smile: "Xiaojie, you have grown taller again, well, your kid was ruthless enough just now!" ”

After Liang Jie heard this, he lowered his head and said, "Boss, I'm sorry...... My sister died. Before he could finish speaking, tears were already streaming down his cheeks.

After Li Ba heard this, his heart was extremely heavy. Liang Jie's sister Liang Jing is the personal guard of his eldest wife Zhou Yan, and even she died, which shows how dangerous this accident in Xibu City is.

"What the hell is going on?"

The cause and effect of this change is simple. Two months after Li Ba's disappearance, he suddenly returned with a detachment of men. Merely. This Li Ba is 'fake'. It was disguised as a deviant who was skilled in disguise, and immediately after entering the city, he began to steal the city of Xibu.

Before this mysterious force invaded Xibu City, it was fully prepared and knew the situation in the city very well. They first occupied the base of Jiupan Mountain, and then. Begin to take control of the Harvest Merchant Combat Force. Under the orders of that fake Li Ba, all the core high-level personnel were dismissed.

When the old brothers such as the subordinate Shi Shi noticed that something was wrong, this mysterious force had already firmly grasped Xibu City and even the Harvest Trading House. Of course, they are not many in number, and they are all outsiders, so it is easy to master, but it is difficult to control.

After determining that the boss hiding in the Harvest Mansion was a fake, Li Ba's three wives. There are also a group of henchmen under him, but they don't dare to act rashly. The reason is very simple, the Jiupanshan base is controlled by the other party, and once the skin is torn, Xibu City will suffer a catastrophe.

After discussion, they decided to wait until Yang Jianfeng, Xiaoyang and the others returned to the city, concentrated their forces, and captured the Jiupanshan base first. After that, they will be wiped out.

The plan is finalized, and the troops are not moving. Just wait for Yang Jian and others to return. However, at this moment, the other party also seemed to be aware of it, and began to frantically grab the resources of Xibu City. All the warehouses were emptied, and even the mutated fruit trees that had been greened in the streets were dug up and removed. The gang is like greedy locusts, in just a few days. swept away the resources of Xibu City.

Although Zhou Yan and the others were anxious, their top combat power did not come back, so they could only hold their temperament and wait patiently.

Finally, Yang Jian and the others returned. There are Feng Xiaoyang, Ran Ying, and Liang Jie. There is Brother Monkey. Little Black. There is an army of mutated birds of the old squid. Of course, there is also the elite force of Yang Jian's Dark Night Intelligence Group.

After meeting with Zhou Yan and the others, that night, they gathered elite forces, and with the help of some dust-breaking talismans left by Li Ba, plus Ran Ying's stealth talent, they infiltrated the base of Jiupan Mountain.

Although it was a surprise attack, at the base of Jiupan Mountain, it was still met with fierce resistance. The entire base was stationed by a large number of masters from the other side, and there were four sixth-level evolutionaries alone.

Fortunately, Zhou Yan and others were cautious and did not make rash moves in the early stage, otherwise, it would definitely be more than lucky. With the help of Brother Monkey, as well as the python group led by the golden young Jiao, Shi and others fought bloodily, and finally captured the base of Jiupan Mountain.

But at the same time, on the side of Xibu City, the fake Li Ba and a guy named Liu Haoxuan got the news from some source and began to fight back wildly.

They did not have many people in Xibu City, only about a hundred people. But all of them are masters of evolution. In addition, when Shi Yuan, Donghua, and Wen Hao were dismissed, all the tokens that controlled the Tiemu Shuren were forced to hand over. Let these people easily master thousands of ironwood tree people.

In addition, Liu Haoxuan didn't know what means he used, and he actually rebelled against Min Rou. Min Rou, this woman was originally a member of Si Jiyue's Storm Mercenary Regiment, a person with water ability, good strength and strong work ability. After Si Jiyue became pregnant, she was entrusted with the important task of serving as the vice president of the Mercenary Association. The affairs of the association are basically taken care of by her, and Si Jiyue, the president, raises the baby with peace of mind and rarely asks.

It was this woman who betrayed Si Jiyue. She used the resources of the Mercenary Association to recruit thousands of mercenaries early, most of whom were mercenary teams from other settlements, lurking in Xibu City.

Under Liu Haoxuan's order, thousands of mercenaries, plus nearly a thousand ironwood tree people controlled by tokens, began to launch a frantic attack on the villa and research institute on Lake Island.

Before capturing the base of Jiupan Mountain, Shi and the others had already taken precautions, contacting their old subordinates, as well as the seven hundred personal guards directly under the boss, plus the eight hundred internal guards convened by Zhao Hongyun, to block the road leading to the research institute and the villa on Huxin Island.

After the opponent's strong attack, immediately start to block. That big battle was extremely tragic. Li Ba originally left behind to guard the army of tree people in Xibu City, but they became a big killer weapon in the hands of the enemy, rushing and fighting, and they were like a bamboo.

Tree people only have instinctive consciousness and are not afraid of spiritual intelligence. They don't recognize people, and they are irritable and fierce. Yuan Dong and Zhao Hongyun led the combat troops, but they couldn't resist at all, and they were defeated and retreated.

More than 2,000 brothers were killed and wounded, all of whom were elite merchants.

Seeing that the enemy soldiers were divided into two routes, they entered the research institute and besieged the villa on the island in the middle of the lake. At the critical moment, a surprise army surged from within the institute. The leader is Su Lao, and he is the only one. However, he also led an army of Treants, numbering only three hundred, but he was able to hold off the enemy-controlled Treants.

In particular, Su Lao's Spirit Planting Wood Xiao, the body of the tree man turned into actually had the coercive momentum to suppress the enemy tree man. The Ironwood Tree Men who were under the control of the enemy were almost incapacitated.

After that, Shi Yang Jian returned with Brother Monkey and a group of pythons, and they attacked from both sides before they gained the upper hand. Seeing that the situation was not good, the enemy began to turn around and rush out of Xibu City to escape.

After a night of fierce fighting, although all the enemies were expelled, the victory was won. However, it was also a pyrrhic victory. Nearly half of Li Ba's 700 personal guards were killed or wounded. The same is true of Zhao Hongyun's internal guards. There are also people and horses who originally belonged to Shi Hua Wenhao, but under the provocation and manipulation of the enemy, there was an internal fight, and there were heavy casualties.

Most crucially, all supplies were looted from the city, including the rations of nearly 800,000 residents.

After pacifying the residents of the city, Han Xue, as the lord of Xibu City, began to discuss the time to ask for food aid to Jiangbei City, Wujiabao, Liangcheng and other settlements with good relations. The mysterious forces began to attack, they came from a place called Peicheng, located at the junction of the three provinces of Huisulu, and controlled a large settlement city, with a population of five million, a standing army of one million, and a very strong foundation.

Peicheng's soldiers and horses began to move, descending from the north of Hui, choking all the communication passes along the way. Moreover, they sent evolutionary powerhouses to challenge the leaders of various settlements, showing their strong strength and defeating many settlement leaders, including Wuyun Pengjiang Haitian.

After the show of force, Peicheng spread the word that they did not target the 27 settlements in northern Huibei, but only sent troops to conquer Xibu City. If there is a secret communication with Xibu City, they will be regarded as mortal enemies.

As a result, foreign aid was cut off. In addition, Peicheng soldiers and horses captured Nanchao City as soon as possible, cutting off the only fishery resource in Xibu City.

Of course, under Han Xue's call, Xibu City also gathered 200,000 soldiers and horses to set up a defensive formation north of Liyang County. The originally well-equipped men and horses of Xibu City were swept away by the enemy like locusts before, and all conventional firepower such as tanks and artillery was gone. In the face of a strong attack by the enemy, it is difficult to parry.

On the side of the Jiupanshan base, although there was a fighter brigade, the air defense battalion was stolen by the enemy. Before the fighter plane took off, an anti-aircraft missile attacked from the other side, and it basically lost its combat effectiveness.

Fortunately, there is an army of mutated birds domesticated by the old squid, so that Xibu City can still occupy air superiority. In addition, there are also surface-to-surface missiles on the side of the Jiupanshan base, although the number is not large, but it is extremely deterrent. Therefore, the soldiers and horses of the two sides were at a stalemate in Liyang County.

The battle is uncertain, and the city is not peaceful. Peicheng often sent masters to attack and harass. In particular, the evolutionary who has the talent of disguise and disguise, has strange abilities, and can transform into anyone's appearance and wreak havoc in the city.

This person not only has camouflage skills, but also has extremely strong evolutionary strength. He even pretended to be a female researcher at the research institute, approached Su Lao, and plotted. made Su Lao injured a lot.

In the end, it was the little black fire lion who came out, locked the smell of this person, laid a net, and searched the whole city. But this guy is extremely cunning, and when he sees that the situation is not good, he immediately flees. At the sight of an opportunity, he will sneak into the city again and cause trouble everywhere.

In the end, there was no way, Han Xue could only order the closure of the city. Completely isolate this guy for a temporary peace.

The army fought in Liyang County. In the city, resources are scarce, and the inhabitants have little food left. New grains, including culture fluids, were all stolen. Xibu City is even worse, and life is extremely difficult.

When Li Ba returned, only two meals a day were served in Xibu City. This is still the result of Han Xue asking for help before, and Wu Yunpeng and others sent a batch of food, otherwise, Xibu City would have run out of food.

"These people who were killed by heaven dare to send someone to pretend to be Lao Tzu!"

Listening to the ins and outs of the whole incident, Li Ba gritted his teeth, and his raging anger instantly surged to his whole body.
