Chapter 547: Withdrawal of troops
Liu Zhong's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the city wall, and after a while, Dongfang Ao's face gradually became gloomy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You said that His Royal Highness the Fifth asked us to evacuate Xiangyang, and you want us to give up Xiangyang?" Dongfang Ao's voice gradually increased, and finally Liu Zhong only felt that his whole brain was shocked.......
It took Liu Zhong a long time to wake up from his fog, and felt that the people next to him were looking at him with tigerish eyes, as if they were about to tear themselves apart.......
"Marshal Dongfang, the specific villain is not very clear, but His Royal Highness told the marshal that the goal of Xiangyang City is too big, even if you add reinforcements, it is impossible to really hold this Xiangyang City, not to mention that Xiangyang at this time has no savings, even if the reinforcements are willing to station in Xiangyang and resist the Jin soldiers with the Marshal of the East, then Marshal Dongfang has thought about what to do in the future? Could it be that we all starve to death together in this Xiangyang City? Or does Marshal Dongfang have a way to solve the problem of grain and grass?"
The more Liu Zhong's heart became calmer, and his eyes no longer had the previous look of cringe, and his eyes became sharper.......
However, Dongfang Ao, who was originally cold, slowly restrained the ruthlessness in his eyes at this moment, and even showed a touch of despair in his eyes when Liu Zhong's words fell.......
"Yes...... After all, this is the last portal of my Central Plains, if Xiangyang loses it......" Dongfang Ao felt very powerless at the moment, he wanted to reach out to grab something, but he couldn't catch anything, and finally his hand slowly fell......
The others are not much better than Dongfang Ao, looking at this city that has been swept by the war, the mottled blood stains on it, which are all left by their comrades-in-arms fighting with the enemy, how many blood and tears they have left on this city wall, but now they are asked to give it up, how can they be willing?
"Okay, let's evacuate Xiangyang ......" After a long time, Dongfang Ao, who was silent, finally squeezed a sentence out of his mouth.
"No, Marshal......."
"Marshal, we can't just give up Xiangyang, it's a big deal that Lao Tzu fights with those dogs, even if Lao Tzu dies here, we have to pull a few gold thieves on their backs......."
"yes, that's right, we're not leaving, we're fighting with those dogs......."
"Fight, fight........."
For a while, the soldiers on the city wall were furious and shouted loudly.......
"Are you going to disobey?" Dongfang Ao, who was originally decadent, suddenly had a cold light in his eyes and shouted coldly.
Suddenly, the shouting stopped abruptly, and after a while, the general who had taken the lead before finally spoke: "Marshal, how many of our brothers have died here? For so long, what are we throwing our heads and blood here for? Isn't it just to guard the last gate of the Central Plains? Isn't it just to keep those dog thieves out of the walls of our Great Song Dynasty and prevent them from setting foot in the Central Plains? But what is this now? An inexplicable order wants us to give up this place to those gold thieves, so what should the people of this city do? Do you just watch them fall into the hands of those golden people? Do you want to abandon them like this even if you know what will happen to those compatriots?" the middle-aged general became more and more excited, and finally even began to shout.......
Dongfang Ao didn't get angry at his rudeness, after the general's words fell, he was silent, and only after knowing for a while did he sigh and say, "Gao Zhiyong, do you really think that the reason why Xiangyang City has not been breached for so long is because we have been holding on to this without fear of death?"
The general named Gao Zhiyong was stunned by Dongfang Ao's words, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.......
But Dongfang Ao didn't seem to intend to wait for his reply, and laughed self-deprecatingly twice after the words fell, and said: "Look at how many people we have left now? Even if the wounded soldiers are added up, they can't live up to 30,000, 30,000, hahaha, hehehe, 30,000 people, such a big Xiangyang City, do you say that 30,000 people can hold it?" Speaking of this, Dongfang Ao fell on the back of the chair, with a sarcastic smile on his face, and even tears flashing in his eyes......
Gao Zhiyong was stunned for a while, he didn't know what to say at this moment, he stood there in a daze, Dongfang Ao's words were undoubtedly a hammer to him, smashing on his head......
Liu Zhong, who was standing aside at this moment, couldn't help but admire this gray-haired old marshal in his heart, in fact, these words were mentioned to him by His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness before leaving, if he couldn't say that the other party could withdraw his troops in the end, then say all this, let the other party understand all this, if these defenders still decided to stay, he didn't need to continue to persuade him......
But now it seems that there is no need for him to say much, all of this is clearly seen by the other party.
"Withdraw....... We can't let our sons and daughters continue to put their lives in like this for no reason, it's useless, those dog thieves are using us as bait, and they will consume my Great Song army again and again, if it goes on like this, hehe....... This is the last chance, right, presumably all this is planned by the master of vain, right? Only he knows the situation here, presumably if we give up this opportunity, then, no matter how many times we ask for help, there will be no more reinforcements coming, at that time, we can really only be trapped here, no, maybe we don't even have the qualifications to be trapped......." Speaking of this, Dongfang Ao's face showed a mocking smile, and that kind of self-deprecating smile made the soldiers on the city wall feel a kind of sadness, even deep helplessness......
"Brother Dongfang is right, if those gold thieves want to take this Xiangyang, it is only a matter of a moment for several innate powerhouses on the other side to directly attack the city wall and destroy the old man, as for you, it is even more impossible to resist the strong attack of those innate powerhouses, in fact, this Xiangyang City has never been in our hands from beginning to end, he is just those gold thieves who are temporarily kept here by us, and when they feel that we have no need to exist, they can take this Xiangyang City from our hands at any time......"
Just when Dongfang Ao's voice fell, a voice came from the side, and everyone looked at it, only to see Nangong Sheng's figure gradually walking up the city wall.......
