Chapter Seventy-One: I'm Not a Meticulous Worker
Everyone present was dumbfounded, why was Li Yue so confident that he could block the attack of Jindan's troops? Their hearts beat drums, and many people were unwilling to put their lives on the line in this battle to defend the city.
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a young man in his twenties walked in.
He came to report the casualties, but the moment the door was opened, countless battle intent poured in, Li Yue and everyone made an enchantment for this room before the discussion, so everyone couldn't clearly feel the emotional changes of everyone outside, but now the battle intent poured in, and everyone's hearts sank.
It turned out that what Li Yue said just now was not only to gather the confidence of everyone outside, but also to force everyone in the room to make a decision, because everyone outside was a member of the Nangong family, and if they wanted to fight, even if the backbone members had any objections, they would not be able to set off a storm.
Thinking of this, everyone looked at Li Yue in unison, but Li Yue seemed complacent, took the report presented by the young man, and looked through it carefully.
"This is a reversal!" Nangong Yun gritted his teeth in a low voice and said, "Use the entire Nangong family to force all of us to choose a fight!"
Forcing is a common method used by the superiors, it is to use the will of the people below to force the upper echelons to make a choice, Li Yue's means are accurate, after the Nangong family counted the casualty report, the mood of the battle reached the highest point, because in that casualty report, the casualties were not very serious, and many people were just injured, so the Nangong family thought that the Tiandao troops were nothing more than that.
But there were still dead people in the city, and these people were all relatives and friends, and hatred spread in the hearts of everyone.
There is hatred, and I feel that there is hope for a war, and then the war spirit reaches the extreme.
Li Yue opened the casualty report, and then handed it over by Steward Zhang, and said, "It seems that the casualties of the Nangong family are not too serious, and the Heavenly Dao troops are not invincible. ”
Everyone who heard this was a little harsh, there were two reasons why the casualties were not serious, the first reason was that this siege force was only a small force composed of the Xudan Realm and the Qi Training Period, and the second reason was that the real decisive battle did not break out, and the Nangong family retained most of its strength.
However, this casualty report must not be used as a reference for the ensuing battle to defend the city.
"What I just said is just a general context, as for the details of the ambush and the repair of the city protection array, I hope you will give more valuable advice. Li Yue said.
"Young master, do you have to fight?" Nangong Yun suddenly stood up, clenched his fists and said, "Even if all the speculations you just put forward are true, we still have no certainty of victory, this battle is over, how serious are the casualties of the Nangong family, everyone present knows it, do we have to take this risk?"
Li Yue's face, which was still a little smiling, gradually became cold, cold as ice, and said lightly, "Don't you want to fight? But now everyone outside wants to fight! With such a high fighting spirit, if you suppress them at will, it will definitely shake the morale of the army, and if we are chased and killed by the Heavenly Dao troops at that time, we have no power to fight back, what will you be responsible for?"
"I ......" Nangong Yun said in his throat, and he couldn't spit out a word for a long time, if it wasn't for Li Yue inciting everyone's emotions just now, how could everyone have such a high fighting spirit?
"Do the others still have questions?" Li Yue was reluctant to deal with Nangong Yun, and then swept everyone's faces, and saw that although everyone's faces were gloomy, no one spoke, so she nodded.
Seeing that no one spoke, Nangong Yun was a little anxious, and said loudly, "Everyone, now the battle intent that the young master said is like paper paste, and it will be broken when you poke it, if Nangong City is hit by the strong attack of the Heavenly Dao troops and falls into the sea of fire, how many people in Nangong City will have the determination to fight at that time?"
"This ......" Everyone understood in their hearts that what Nangong Yun said was right, now the determination to support the Nangong family to defend the city is that high fighting intent, but this fighting intent was instigated by Li Yue, if it is overwhelmed by the Heavenly Dao army at that time, how many people can still have the will to fight?
Just when everyone was swaying from side to side, Li Yue suddenly shouted, "You are still shaking the military heart of Nangong City, I have reason to suspect that you are a fine work sent by the Heavenly Dao troops!"
This sentence touched everyone's nerves, it was because of the problem that Nangong City was broken so quickly, and when they heard Li Yue's words at this moment, although everyone didn't believe it in their hearts, they all looked at Nangong Yun at the same time.
"Nangong Xiang, what are you talking about!" Nangong Yun trembled and glared at Li Yue.
The corners of Li Yue's mouth rose, and she smiled coldly, she never wanted to explain more, her body moved, and she slaughtered in an instant, heading towards Nangong Yun.
Nangong Yun reacted quickly, on tiptoe, leaped up, broke through the door, and rushed to the sky, Li Yue hurriedly chased after him, two flowing rainbows, one in front of the other, only ten feet apart, Nangong Yun felt a faint killing intent behind him.
He was full of vitality, his whole body radiated light, after a pause, he twisted his waist and headed towards Li Yue, a little fingertip, and a sword shot out from his fingertip, rushing towards Li Yue.
Li Yue did not dodge, she was in the middle stage of the Void Pill, and she was also a master of the Nine Dao Tides, and her strength could be used to slash the early stage of the Golden Pill, for a person like Nangong Yun who had just reached the middle stage of the Void Pill, it could be said that she had reached the realm of second killing.
Raising his right hand, he turned into a palm and slashed towards the sword.
"Boom!"
The two phases exploded, shaking in all directions.
Everyone in the Nangong family looked up at the sky, dumbfounded, and stammered, "What...... What's going on...... How did the young master fight with Nangong Yun?"
The smoke rose, Li Yue broke through the smoke, stood in the air, pointed at Nangong Yun, and shouted, "Nangong Yun, this young master has already found out, you are the work of the Heavenly Dao troops, and today Nangong City is broken, it is your doing!"
"You...... You're spewing blood!" Nangong Yunqi's vitality was in turmoil, and he roared, "What evidence do you have!"
"So far, you still dare to deny it!" Li Yue didn't let Nangong Yun say any more, his body swayed, the air was bright and flickering, and he had already come to Nangong Yun in the next second.
Nangong Yun's pupils shrank, and he wanted to escape, but it was too late, Li Yue's fist bombarded him, with bursts of whistling sounds, and hit him heavily in the chest.
A punch pierced his chest, he looked at Li Yue, and then at the hand on his chest, and still kept saying, "I'm not...... I'm not a ......."
Li Yue leaned forward, attached to his ear, used his vitality, and whispered, "I know." ”
"You...... Why?" asked Nangong Yun.
"Because if you don't fight, everyone in the Nangong family will definitely die. Li Yue said, "I can't kill them because of your stupidity, can I?"
Feeling the faint coldness on Li Yue's body, Nangong Yun trembled, Li Yue's fist gradually pulled out, Nangong Yun suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, and shouted in pain.
Li Yue's fingertips were on Nangong Yun's forehead, and the vitality on his fingertips shone dazzlingly.
"Now, you can die!" Li Yue said coldly.
"Who are you! You are not Nangong Xiang!" When people were on the verge of death, they were also the most sober, and Nangong Yun realized at this moment that the person in front of him was not the young master he was familiar with at all.
"I'm Li Yue. After Li Yue finished speaking, his fingertips burst out and shot through Nangong Yun's forehead.
The blood dispersed, Nangong Yun's body fell, hitting the ground heavily, and the dust raised covered his body, everyone was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it, they stopped their movements at the same time and looked at Li Yue.
Li Yue looked down coldly, looked at the backbone members of the Nangong family, watched them bow their heads one by one, and didn't dare to speak, and then Li Yue said, "Nangong Yun has been identified by me, and it is the work of the Heavenly Dao troops! ”
At this time, no one asked Li Yue for evidence anymore, the so-called evidence is no longer important at the moment, and the name Nangong Yun has been labeled as a traitor in the hearts of the Nangong family.
"Swear to defend Nangong Castle to the death!"
"Swear to defend Nangong Castle to the death!"
The backbone members of the Nangong family naturally knew that Nangong Yun had been wronged, but what they heard in their ears was unity, and what they saw everywhere was Nangong Yun's cold corpse, and they didn't dare to say anything more.
To govern troubled times, use heavy codes, because killing is the fastest way to deter people's hearts.
With the support of the family, the backbone members no longer dared to question Li Yue's words, and everyone entered the inner hall again to discuss the detailed rules for defending the city.
The detailed rules can be negotiated within one night, which is not only due to the fact that the backbone members are all shrewd and capable people, but also due to Li Yue's thunderbolt methods.
At dawn and sunrise, Nangong City was already busy, repairing the city protection array, relocating the mortals in the city, and training the cooperation between the Nangong clansmen, everything was going on in an orderly manner according to Li Yue's plan.
At the head of Nangong City, Li Yue stood alone at the head of the city, the wind was together, and his clothes were fluttering.
At this time, a woman's figure appeared from the city, she walked towards Li Yue, stood beside Li Yue, and the two stood side by side for a long time, until a rooster crowed, the woman's body trembled, and she seemed to remember the purpose of her coming.
"Young master, Nangong Yun isn't meticulous, right?" asked Nangong Qianruo.
Li Yue turned his head, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked at Nangong Qianruo for a long time, without speaking.
"Answer me!Young master, Nangong Yun is not meticulous, right!" Nangong Qianruo asked again.
"He's your lover?" Li Yue said.
Nangong Yun's face flushed, and he shook his head and said, "No, but I don't want anyone in the Nangong family to be wronged." ”
"I don't know if he's a fine worker. Li Yue once again took his eyes off Nangong Yun's face, looked into the distance, and said, "But I know that his death can lead to fine work!"
"Young master, what do you mean?" Nangong Qianruo frowned, her hands clenched into fists, and anger swelled in her heart.
"Nangong City is broken, because Nangong City has fine work and the Heavenly Dao troops should be combined with the outside, no matter how powerful we are, it is impossible to find fine work in a short time. Li Yue said suddenly, "However, Nangong City is not broken, and Xizuo will definitely pass on this news to the Heavenly Dao troops, if Xizuo really spreads this news, we will not have time to prepare." ”
Nangong Qianruo thought for a while, and then said, "So you killed Nangong Yun and released the news, saying that Nangong Yun was a fine work, just to make the real fine work take it lightly?"
Li Yue nodded, "You are very smart, if it is peacetime, the detailed work will definitely be verified in many ways and act carefully, but now it is wartime, and the time is more urgent than ours, and it will definitely not be carefully verified, so I asked Steward Zhang to arrange an ambush along the road, and waited for the fine work to throw himself into the net." ”
"Yes...... But there's no need to kill Nangong Yun!" Nangong Qianruo's expression turned cold, and she said, "It's just because Nangong Yun opposes what you say!"
Li Yue lowered his head and said, "We can't help but kill, if we let Xizuo realize that this is a trap, we will fall short." ”
In fact, Li Yue also thought about it, if Nangong Yun was locked up, what would they think about the fine work in the city, they would definitely be suspicious, because Nangong City is now wartime, since it was found out that the fine work was not killed at the beginning, there must be a trap in it, so Li Yue had to kill Nangong Yun.
As for Nangong Yun's opposition to herself, it is also one of the reasons why Li Yue killed her, just as Li Yue said, Nangong Yun will indeed shake the morale of the army, he has a status in the Nangong family, naturally there are a group of people who follow him, at this time, if a group of people choose not to fight, it is easy to drive the emotions of the entire Nangong family.
The two phases think about it, and only by killing Nangong Yun can the benefits be maximized.
Li Yue has never been a saint, and even she is not a soft-hearted person, even if she treats her own people, she is the same, not to mention that she does not belong to the Nangong family in the first place, she just wants to use the Nangong family.
