Chapter 21 begins
Li Mubai returned to the inn, in the face of war, his strength was not enough, first to ensure his own safety before anything else.
"Do I want to run away now? But before Liu Haoyu said that this matter can be finished in about half a month, now five days have passed, and there are still about ten days, too, this is not an ordinary world, but a high-martial world with martial arts, one enemy and ten thousand troops are no longer exaggerated, but real, if the two sides are not evenly matched, it should end soon.
And since General Pan had already expected it, the city lord must have known about it, and he would definitely not fail to prepare. And if Ming Guo dares to attack, there must be two brushes, and I don't know which side will have the last laugh.
Do you want to take a look, there will definitely be no fewer masters, and it is best to have a long insight, but at such an important juncture, unless you are involved, you won't let irrelevant people get close, right?
Li Mubai entered the martial arts space to practice martial arts, but he always remembered this matter in his heart.
"I can't cultivate my state of mind at home, and I am uneasy because of this, forget it, there is no effect if I practice like this. ”
Exiting the martial arts space, Li Mubai plans to go and see the situation now.
There were very few pedestrians on the road, and they looked hurried, and they were very different from the lively appearance of the previous days, presumably the news of the siege of the city had reached the city, which made people panic.
Li Mubai went all the way to the west gate, but he had heard it before, and the army was coming from the west. After arriving at the West Gate, Li Mubai found that it was already full of troops, and there were a large number of warriors, of course, there were also people who came here to watch the excitement like him.
Someone next to him discussed: "How can you say that the fight will start this time?"
"Now the national strength of our Chu State is not as good as before, although the royal family tries its best to find a way, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and it is already the limit to be able to do what it is now! If the royal family still can't emerge a strong person, I'm afraid the other two countries won't sit back and watch the Chu State recover, and this kind of thing will not be less!"
The people around all nodded, agreeing with this person's statement, they were barbarians in the south before, and this time it was the turn of the Ming Kingdom, these were just temptations, if the Chu State really showed fatigue and was powerless, they didn't mind carving up the Chu State.
"It seems that the city lord must have been prepared, and the army has appeared early, I don't know who the enemy general is?"
"Who else could it be besides the people of the Liu family? After all, some time ago, Liu Haoyu of the Liu family deliberately came here to provoke, if it weren't for the people of the Liu family, I really can't think of anyone else. ”
"Are you from the Liu family?" Li Mubai said secretly in his heart, he also agreed with that person's analysis, it was reasonable, Liu Haoyu also said before, he just obeyed orders, and what could drive him, except for the people of his family, there were very few other estimates!
Suddenly, there was a commotion on the city wall, Li Mubai took a look and found that someone had climbed the city wall, and it should be the beginning of the siege.
"Ahh Yes... Ah......" A miserable scream came, Li Mubai looked in the direction from which the voice came, and saw people falling from the city wall like dumplings, and a man who looked a little thin appeared in everyone's field of vision.
The man was wearing a dark cloak, black armor, and his figure was not tall, but the momentum exuded from his body was difficult to ignore.
"Who is this?"
This man who suddenly appeared obviously belonged to the people of the Ming Kingdom, most of whom he didn't know, but some people knew.
"It's a member of the Yang family, Yang Xuanye, a master of the Yang God Realm!"
Naturally, someone on the city wall recognized Yang Xuanye's identity, and someone immediately greeted him, for this kind of master, the average soldier going up is completely sent to death, as long as he is a master against a master.
Pan Guoan's face was heavy, although they were ready, the Ming side must be sure that they would launch this war.
Pan Guoan ordered: "Everyone be prepared, look out for the enemy's masters, don't let them get close to the city wall, force them down, lure people to other places when necessary, and never let them enter the city!"
"Yes!"
In fact, defending the city is very disadvantaged, especially in this kind of martial arts world, as long as there is a master, if you can't stop it, open the city gate in minutes. Therefore, there must be masters on all sides of the city, and some people must be left to target some families in the city to prevent them from turning back.
"Since I don't know who it is, let's see your reaction!" Pan Guoxin said secretly.
Regarding the matter of someone colluding with Mingguo, due to some things that happened before, they had already determined that it was true, but they didn't know who it was, so they discussed a solution.
"Come on, give orders to each family, today in a national disaster, everyone has to do their best, each family must send a master over, if you don't obey, you will be punished with treason. ”
"Yes!" the herald commanded.
The crowd of onlookers suddenly exploded.
"You all heard, right? This is rare, presumably this Ming Guo's action made General Pan feel a great threat, otherwise he would not have forced each family to help, and when he encountered this kind of thing before, it was all voluntary. ”
"Yes, General Pan must have gotten some information, otherwise he wouldn't have done this!"
"Brother, why didn't you react at all? Did you already know something?"
Feeling that someone patted him on the back, Li Mubai turned his head and looked, he was a young man in his twenties, but his height was estimated to be about one and a half meters, and his appearance was very ordinary.
Shaking his head, Li Mubai said: "Isn't this normal? At such a time, of course, all the forces must be gathered!"
"The truth is this, but those families may not be willing, after all, even if this Wanhua City belongs to the Ming Kingdom, they are still a big family in this Wanhua City, so when they encountered this kind of thing before, they were all asked to be voluntary, after all, it was convenient to leave a good impression on the city lord, and it was convenient to act, right?"
The young man seems to be clear about these things, Li Mubai doesn't care about these things, it's the first time he's heard others say this, but it's really right to think about it carefully. Even ancient China has a saying: There are only thousand-year-old families, not thousand-year-old dynasties.
No matter which ruler it is, as long as you don't want this Wanhua City to be in chaos, you have to rely on the families in this city, unless you eradicate them, otherwise they have to make trouble, the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake is this reason.
Li Mubai asked, "You mean that this will cause dissatisfaction among those families in the city?"
"That's for sure, maybe he will unite with the people of the Ming Kingdom outside, General Pan doesn't know what he wants to do? Isn't this forcing those families to join the Ming Kingdom?" The young man looked worried, he was born here since he was a child, he was born and raised in Wanhuacheng, and he was also a native of the Chu State, of course, towards the Chu State.
