"Let the brothers from South City go to support us. We have the Quanrong watching over us in East City, so the pressure is very high. Besides, we have to guard the granary, so we can't leave."

"You guys in East City are under a lot of pressure, but we in West City are also under a lot of pressure."

A general frowned as he looked at Wei Fang and the others and continued, "Outside the West City are the Qiang tribes, with about 40,000 soldiers and horses. We also need to prepare weapons for the brothers in the city, and the task is very heavy."

Then he looked at the generals in charge of guarding the South City and said, "Brothers, you are the only ones free now. I will leave the support of the North City to you."

The general in charge of South City had a very grim expression on his face. He glanced at everyone in the meeting room and asked in a deep voice, "Are you free?"

"Since you are free, why didn't you come to help when the Yao Kingdom's troops were at the gates of the city?"

Some generals curled their lips and were about to refute.

The South City general interrupted, "Okay, even if the brothers in South City are idle now, we can send troops to support them, but are you really going to stay still?"

"You know, we in South City still have to guard against being captured from the inside!"

"You don't know what the soldiers are talking about recently, do you?"

As the South City general spoke, a cold wind seemed to blow through the conference room, and everyone shivered.

Wei Fang, the general and the others also showed worried looks on their faces. They had all heard that someone secretly smuggled contraband into the soldiers' letters under the pretext of writing them home. What was even more bizarre was that they didn't find any of them afterwards!

It is also possible that someone found it, but the person or soldier who found it pretended not to see it!

This is the scariest thing!

If this is true, then it means that there is a big problem within the Yujing City garrison, and there is even a possibility of rebellion!

After realizing this, the investigation was urgently stopped by Wei Fang and others after only one day of investigation.

"The White Tiger Star God shines through the ages, reigning over the world and protecting generations to come."

Someone uttered this sentence in the meeting room, and it was like dropping a bomb, blowing out many people's little thoughts.

Everyone became cautious, as no one knew that among these generals, there was no one who was loyal to Young Master Jun!

Wei Fang had a headache, turned his head and looked at his side, and said, "If it doesn't work, we can send 2,000 people from each of the three city gates to provide support."

The general was helpless: "That requires their consent. If not..." A fierce look flashed in the general's eyes.

Wei Fang saw his idea, but did not stop him or make it public. In this special period, it was natural to use some extraordinary measures.

Not stopping it at this moment became the decision Wei Fang regretted the most in the future.

The general turned around and gave his guards a few words, then shouted, "I have something to say!"

All the generals in the conference room looked at him, and more than 80% of them had confusion in their eyes, wondering what he wanted to say.

Is he going to ask his men to support North City?

Someone smiled. This was a good idea as it saved them from wasting their soldiers.

At this moment, protecting one's own safety is the most important thing. There are 250,000 foreign coalition forces outside the city, and no reinforcements have appeared in the Acropolis and the Wengcheng so far, and the Yao Kingdom army has retreated.

Yujing City is like an isolated island at this moment, and everyone is making plans for themselves.

The general stood up from his seat. His crimson robe was large and luxurious, and as he walked, it looked like a flag.

Walking to the center of the meeting room, the general turned around and glanced at Wei Fang again, then shouted loudly: "It's already this late, and you are all still only considering your own interests!"

"Your parents, wives and children are all in the city. If Yujing City is breached by those foreign races outside, do I need to tell you what will happen?"

All the generals were silent. They knew what would happen, and they also knew that they shouldn't do this, but everyone had their own selfish motives, especially the recent situation in the city, which made them all very uneasy.

That's why he tightly grasped the military power in his hands, not wanting to be the one to be abandoned and sacrificed.

But these generals were only shaken for a moment before they hardened their hearts again, thinking that as long as they had the military power in their hands, they would be able to lead their men to escape even if the city was finally breached!

As for the life and death of the people in the city, it’s up to the nobles and bigwigs. What does it have to do with these small generals?

Afterwards, no matter what the general said, they just listened, and even their expressions did not change.

The general walked to the door of the meeting room, looked at the gloomy sky and sighed: "Since this is the case, I don't have any better solution, so let it be."

Having said that, the general left in Wei Fang's incredulous eyes. Yes, he left, and never looked back.

All the generals looked at his back with confusion on their faces. Is the general someone who gives up so easily?

The answer is of course no!

The moment the general's back disappeared from everyone's sight, a group of fully armed soldiers rushed in.

Under the threat of the crossbow, the guard who had left earlier said, "The general said that all generals should stay here temporarily. The rooms have been cleaned up. Please come in."

One moment everyone thought the general had changed his character, but the next moment things took a sharp turn for the worse.

Although someone stood up and cursed and wanted to find the general to argue, the guards stopped him with one sentence: "The general also said that if someone talks too much nonsense, there is no need to keep him and waste food."

At this moment, the general of Nancheng stood up leisurely, looked around at the generals around him, showed a smug smile, put his hands behind his back and walked away, and the soldiers did not stop him.

"Damn it, they are actually in the same group!"

The next moment, another general who was in charge of guarding the granary stood up. He looked relaxed, patted his dust-free hem, and went out as well. Still no soldiers stopped him.

The general guarding the East City turned pale: "Asshole, I treated you well, why did you betray me?"

The general guarding the granary stopped at the door, looked back at him, and said, "I just want to protect my family. I hope you can understand."

The East City general's face turned cold, but he didn't say anything else.

As the generals stood up and left one by one, the other generals realized that this was a trap, a trap to lure them here!

When no one else stood up to leave in the conference room, Wei Fang shook his head, sighed, and planned to leave as well.

In extraordinary times, extraordinary things need to be done. This is not the general's fault.

However, when Wei Fang walked towards the door of the conference room, he was stopped by someone.

It was the general's personal guard who smiled and said to Wei Fang, "Sir Wei, please stay."

"Hmm?" Wei Fang's face darkened and she had a bad feeling.

The guard waved outside the door, and two soldiers came running over, pointed at Wei Fang and said, "Master Wei, please go to the backyard to rest. If you need anything, we will do our best to satisfy you."

Wei Fang said in a deep voice: "Do you know who I am?"

The guard was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Aren't you Wei Fang, Lord Wei? Of course I know."

"The general said that you are old and have been overworked these days. You need to have a good rest."

Wei Fang looked at the soldiers lined up outside, as well as the weapons and crossbows in their hands, and asked in a cold voice: "What on earth is he going to do?"

The guard said with a smile: "This has nothing to do with you. You should go and have a rest, or I will ask someone to invite you."

Knowing that he was just a personal guard who was carrying out the orders of the general, Wei Fang said no more to him, but shouted loudly: "Let the general come to see me!"

The guard's expression turned cold and he waved his hand. The two soldiers immediately stepped forward, covered Wei Fang's mouth and nose, and then dragged him away.

Then the guard put on a smiling face again, glanced at the generals in the conference room, chuckled twice, and retreated.
