The Savage Lady Wants to Kill Me! Reborn on the Path of Cultivation
Chapter 98 It has to be Brother Hui
Duan Tianyang had originally given up hope and planned to eliminate a few minions and then retreat.
After all, with the strength of just three of them, how could they possibly resist thousands of enemies outside the city?
Even if he doesn't consider himself, he has to think about Xiao Fang and Guan Hu.
Unnecessary sacrifice is not heroism, it is stupidity!
To his surprise, Brother Hui's lines actually had a miraculous effect.
I heard someone shouting loudly: "Master Duan, I am willing to follow you and fight the enemy to the death!"
This statement was shocking.
Because the person who swore loudly was the sergeant who had been so arrogant and disrespectful just now.
He quickly walked to Duan Tianyang, stepped in and saluted with a sincere attitude.
His statement was immediately echoed by several soldiers behind him. They saluted in unison and said in unison: "I am willing to follow you, sir, and kill the enemy to the death!"
The statements made by these people spread quickly among the crowd like wildfire.
Sporadic shouts gradually rang out from under the previously silent city wall. These sounds gathered like a tide and eventually formed a deafening wave.
The soldiers rushed up the stairs like wolves and tigers, and those soldiers who had originally planned to go down the city were knocked to pieces.
Seeing many of their comrades rushing up to the city wall without hesitation and choosing to fight the enemy to the end, those soldiers who had originally planned to leave were also shaken.
They all changed direction and followed the crowd back to the city.
"Sir, we are willing to fight the enemy to the end! We are by no means cowards. As long as you are still on the top of the city wall, we will not retreat. We will serve our country with our lives until we die!" The soldiers shouted in unison, shaking the whole area.
Su Wen was about to move forward, but was attracted by the voice behind him and stopped to look back. Behind him, except for Li Qing and several other battalion guards, there were less than 200 soldiers left.
However, when looking up at the top of the city, all one saw were soldiers standing like a forest, densely packed and overwhelming.
It has to be Brother Hui. He can convince them with just one line!
Duan Tianyang's blood boiled again. He walked proudly to the edge of the city wall, looking down at Su Wen and others, his eyes full of contempt and disdain.
The soldiers on the city walls, like their generals, lined up neatly behind Duan Tianyang, looking down at Su Wen and others below, their eyes full of contempt and disdain.
These soldiers were terrified of Su Wen's atrocities and dared not speak out.
Now, with Duan Tianyang's leadership, they seemed to have found their home and a force they could trust.
Su Wen's soul trembled suddenly, and at that moment, he fully realized that his position in Xiguan City was no longer as stable as it used to be.
Most of the soldiers who were once loyal to him actually switched to Duan Tianyang's camp.
"Come down!" Su Wen's voice was full of determination. He clenched his fists and shouted to the soldiers standing on the city wall, "I order you all to come down! Do you hear me? Follow my orders immediately and come down!"
Duan Tianyang looked at him with a half-smile on his face and said, "You'd better shut up. Today, if you choose to fight the enemy to the end, you will still be the chief of the city guard of Xiguan City and the respected Lord Su. But if you choose to escape from the battle, then from this moment on, you will no longer be my boss!"
He seemed to be giving Su Wen a chance, a chance to prove that he still had courage and backbone.
If Su Wen still had some blood in his veins and was willing to stay and fight together, he would let bygones be bygones because this person did not affect morale.
But for someone like Su Wen who is greedy for pleasure and values his life more than anything else, how could he have the courage to stay?
After all, the richer and more powerful a person is, the more afraid they are of death, and it is the same in any world!
When Su Wen heard these words, his heart was filled with anger and his teeth were almost broken.
He raised his hand and pointed at Duan Tianyang angrily, his tone full of resentment and determination: "I will stay in the city and watch how you die!"
After saying that, he waved his hand and ordered, "Follow me back to the mansion!"
Looking at Su Wen's back as he left angrily, Duan Tianyang suddenly felt murderous.
Although Su Wen once sent someone to assassinate him, it was a personal grudge and he could choose not to care about it.
Now, in the face of major issues, Su Wen's cowardly behavior has seriously affected the morale of the army. It is truly an unforgivable crime!
Su Wen returned to the City Guard House with a group of battalion guards and more than a hundred soldiers. He sat down on a chair, filled with anger.
He looked at Li Qing and asked, "Do you think Duan Tianyang can resist the bandits outside the city?"
Li Qing shook his head and replied, "The combined forces of several tribes in Xifan Country number several thousand, while the number of people following Duan Tianyang to defend the city is less than a thousand. The difference in forces is so great that it will probably be difficult to win."
Su Wen pondered for a moment and asked, "What if he really blocks it?"
He stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "No! If he really stops the bandits, wouldn't that mean I'm handing over Xiguan City to him?"
Li Qing looked at Su Wen in confusion and asked, "What do you mean, sir?"
Su Wen rolled his eyes and whispered, "I'll take people to transport the gold, silver and jewelry out of the mansion first. You go to the West Wind Inn."
"Sir, the West Wind Inn is run by foreigners!" Li Qing reminded.
Su Wen's eyes flashed with cunning light, and he whispered: "I know, that's why I want you to go there in person! When you arrive at the West Wind Inn, meet the innkeeper and tell him that I intend to abandon the city and surrender, but Duan Tianyang has deceived the army and would rather die than surrender. Tell him where Duan Tianyang lives, and by the way, tell him where Duan Tianyang's woman is. As long as they can capture Duan Tianyang's woman, Duan Tianyang will surrender obediently!"
The "Duan Tianyang's woman" mentioned by Su Wen is the only female member of the Hongxing Society - Xiao Hong.
Li Qing suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Sir, your strategy of killing someone with a borrowed knife is really brilliant!"
Su Wen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, sneered, and turned his head to the three battalion guards Chen Zhong, Wang Yuan, and Liu Wei and said: "The three of you, together with Li Qing, lead a few brothers and hide in the city. If the foreigners attack Duan Tianyang's residence, you will stay put; if they fail, wait until they are both injured, then you will take the opportunity to attack and try to capture them alive. If you can't capture them alive, kill them all!"
"Yes, sir!" the three answered in unison.
At this time, the drumbeats outside Xiguan City became more and more urgent, and the camps of several tribes were approaching the city, and the battle was about to break out.
Looking at the Xifan tribe approaching the city, Guan Hu frowned. Just by looking at the enemy's formation, he could tell that these people were by no means guerrillas, but well-trained and regular soldiers.
He whispered to Duan Tianyang, "Brother Tian, it was Su Wen who killed the caravan, why didn't you just hand him over to the Wild Wolf Tribe?"
