Peerless Tang Sect: I have both medicine and poison

Chapter 158 Old Man Li's Grandchildren

"That's how things are." After the commander of the scout battalion reported the information he had found, Dugu Yin's whole face turned slightly weird.

"What do the people in Iron Armored City want?" This is a city that looks like a loophole. There have been scouts lurking for a long time. As soon as the new policy was promulgated, Dugu Yin, who was thousands of miles away, received the news.

Ironclad City is their foundation, right?Although your Xiang family's center of gravity is in the imperial capital, it's not like you don't even want your own fiefdom.In this way, the hearts of the people are scattered, and a large amount of troops will be spent on patrols and suppression, how to defend the city.

"The marshal doesn't know that the situation in Iron Armored City is common in the mainland. The nobles basically look down on commoners like us. After all, there are only a few who stand out from the commoners like me." Chu Yu smiled wryly.

"To be honest, I was very surprised when I saw Dugu City for the first time. It is already very good to be able to awaken the Martial Soul for the people for free. This is worthy of praise in any city. But Dugu City not only awakens the Martial Soul for free, but also Various supporting policies have been given to give civilian soul masters the opportunity to grow."

It was only when he saw the scene of Dugu City that he finally returned to his heart. Otherwise, how could Chu Yu, who stood out from the common people and not only served as a teacher but also a soul sage, put his family to others so easily.

"Shouldn't it be?" Dugu Yin didn't understand the thoughts of those soul master families, they didn't want people in vain, so they just wanted to deduct some three melons and two dates.

"Forget it, since he dares to do this in Iron Armored City, then we will follow his will. Contact a few soul master special operations teams nearby, invest in Iron Armored City, and organize civilians to create some chaos by the way, so as to bring back all their attractiveness. to the city."

Dugu Yin stood up, "The donation in Carlos City is over first, leave some emergency food for the remaining people in the city, and the rest of the troops must gather urgently, hurry, and must arrive outside Iron Armored City within three days."

This is because of the speed of ordinary people. On the battlefield, low-level soul masters are almost as powerful as trained ordinary soldiers, so it is still necessary to bring these well-trained ordinary soldiers.
-
In three days, the development of things was surprising.

Iron Armored City posted an announcement, and the people naturally couldn't understand it. Compared with an explanation, it was more like an article telling them, which naturally aroused outrage.But so what, the tall and burly soldiers next to them were not something they could mess with at first glance.

No one dared to get together to discuss these matters, but not long after, old man Li, who was a blacksmith in the east of the city, was arrested, and his granddaughter, who was well-known in the street, was even forced to death.Who doesn't know that old man Li is a mute, talking?People can't even speak.

It was clear that the Xiang family fell in love with old man Li's granddaughter, but she refused to follow, which caused such a tragedy.

If that's the case, that's fine, everyone is just talking, after all, it's not their own family's business, and if they take care of it, it's possible to make their own family suffer.

But who knew that a young man from outside the city claimed to be the grandson of old man Li. Although the neighbors in the neighborhood were surprised, who knew other people's relatives these days, let alone old man Li's, and it was too late to hide.

Just when everyone was about to see a joke, who knew that old man Li's nephew was actually a master soul master, and the patrolling soldiers he beat up had no power to fight back.I don't know who in the crowd yelled, and the people who had been watching the theater rushed forward with dissatisfaction.

The anger was spilled, but they were terrified when they saw the soldiers who fell to the ground, for fear that they would be settled by the Xiang family.While everyone pushed and pushed, old man Li's grandson stood up righteously and took all the responsibilities.

Everyone had nothing to do, and they readily agreed, but as a condition, they must help Old Man Li's grandson avoid being chased by soldiers in the city.Everyone hesitated at first, but when they saw the soldiers lying on the ground, they were already grasshoppers on a boat. If this person was caught and revealed, wouldn't they be finished too.

They had no choice but to pinch their noses and admit their sins, and at most they could curse at the person who was shouting in the crowd.So with the help of local civilians who are familiar with the terrain, the "Old Man Li's grandsons" attacked everywhere, repeated the old tricks, and laid down a lot of sites to guarantee their transfer.

It's not that the Xiang family didn't think of killing those civilians, but they all denied it, saying that they were just ordinary people, how could they beat those soldiers with soul power.

And they kindly reported it to the soldiers, how could they be the ones who attacked them, we are the generations of residents of your Xiang family.

The reasoning is that these ordinary people are definitely not the ones who deal with the soldiers, but they turned upside down and couldn't find the group of rats running around the whole city. Xiang Liang was so angry that he wanted to send all the soldiers back to the city.

Until two days later, the two soul saints who were in charge of guarding the granary were killed, and the grain and grass in the whole city were burned. Xiang Dao and Xiang Liang were completely furious and launched a blanket search of the whole city.

And the group of mice they were looking for was being safely transferred by the civilians they looked down upon.

In terms of familiarity with this city, it is definitely not the soldiers of the Northern Legion from outside, nor the Xiang family of the owner of the city, but the civilians who have lived here for generations. Aisle, they already know it by heart.

So just after the soldiers searched and arrested, the civilians who were coerced together sent back the "Old Man Li's grandsons" and searched and sent them back. Anyway, these soldiers couldn't find any people, and instead they reduced their numbers carefully.

When Dugu Yin and the others arrived outside the armored city, there were fortifications, but there were very few guards.There are only one or two people standing on the city wall further back, symbolic guards.

"So vulnerable?" Dugu Yin's eyes were extremely bright, and he really didn't understand how a small harassment tactic could directly drag down the opponent.

Yes, wear down.The people in twos and threes seen in front of them are the remaining combat power, and more soldiers are still conducting a large-scale search in the city at this time.

"The marshal doesn't know anything. Except for the great war 4000 years ago, we have only had a little friction at the border in the past few thousand years. Most of them were head-to-head. Unlike your tactic, it has never been seen in the ages, it has been rare since ancient times, and will never be seen again The one who came..." The commander of the scout battalion wanted to say something good, but he couldn't think of words for a while.

Dugu Yin glanced back at him, "It's better if you just say insidious, cunning, and full of tricks."

The commander of the scout battalion sneered, how could this kind of word be used on the marshal? Doesn't it mean that we are despicable.

"The Central Army made a sudden attack and took the first to capture the city gate. The first and second regular armies provided assistance. Once the city gate was captured, they immediately started street fighting and wiped out the enemy in one fell swoop."
