Chapter 250 Siege, People Flee
According to the statistics of casualties after the war, more than 5000 soldiers died, but there were no minor injuries, but only a few hundred serious injuries.

This casualty directly made Lu Guogong and other generals black-faced. This was their biggest loss since they came to Mayi City.

Although the Xiliang people also suffered casualties, there were only more than 800 corpses left behind the towers and walls of Mayi City. Compared with this, the morale was so low that it seemed that a cloud hung over the entire camp.

It wasn't just that morale was low, because the battle was extremely fierce, there were constant shouts of killing, and the drums were constantly beating between the two sides to boost morale. These voices mixed together and condensed into a huge sound wave, which woke up the entire city of Mayi.

The common people hid in their homes and panicked. They didn't know what was going on outside. They had never heard of such a powerful formation. The Xiliang people wouldn't fight in, would they?

This idea involuntarily appeared in many people's minds, some people turned pale, and some people had another idea.

"Hurry up, pack up and salute quickly, and bring all the things you need at home. Is there any dry food? Take it, and fill two bags of water, we have to get out of here quickly."

Fearing that Mayi City would be attacked by Xiliang people like Dingxiang City, the people who were still staying in Mayi City finally started to panic, packed their things in a hurry, and then started to walk towards the south gate with their wives and children.

There are more than one people who have these thoughts, and before they leave, the shouts of killing outside are still loud, and their calves are shaking. They are kind-hearted, and before they leave, they knock on the neighbor's door and persuade them to let them go. Hurry up and leave too, as for whether it will be bad if they don't leave, they don't care about it.

Under this kind of war, it is the best result to be able to take care of my family and not have any accidents.

The panic was gradually delayed. Many people saw other people leaving with their families through their windows, and they followed suit.

The people who rushed to the south gate thought they would encounter obstacles from the gate guards, but the gate guards saw the huge burdens they were carrying, and finally moved away with complicated expressions.

When the people passed by them, they couldn't help but thank them in a low voice.

Ji Fushou, who was secretly observing the battle, could not help shaking his head when he saw more and more people leaving Mayi City, "In the final analysis, the weak army of Daqi failed to give the people confidence. Victory over the army, in today's situation, it is definitely not the people fleeing Mayi City in panic, but helping the army to resist the enemy without fear of life and death."

Su looked at the dense crowds pouring out from all the streets in the city, and clicked his tongue, "Mayi City won't become an empty city, right? If all the people in the city leave and we are the only ones left, it's too eye-catching. "

Ji Fushou frowned slightly, "You're right."

She looked at the streets everywhere, frowned and said, "Unless Daqi drives Xiliang away sooner, otherwise the longer the time drags on, the more people will leave Mayi City."

Su looked at Ji Fushou and asked, "Master, if there are fewer and fewer people in Mayi City, should we stay or leave together?"

Ji Fushou no longer looked at the leaving people, but looked at the most intense battlefield in the southeast corner.

After a while, she said, "Sibo hasn't come to see me for a long time. When this battle is over, we will leave here and find a nearby small village to live in. We will wait until this battle is over. .”

Su Bian understood that the lord will insist on accompanying the young master to finish this battle.

Ji Fushou, however, looked solemnly at the scene of successive retreats in the southeast corner, feeling a little puzzled in her heart. From the beginning of Xiliang's attack, she brought Su and others to watch, even faster than Liang Zhenhai and others.

Under her observation, the Xiliang people's offensive was swift and fierce, and they went straight to the dragon's gate without too much entanglement, and they attacked the weak point very simply. Under this thunderous offensive, the defending soldiers were killed before they could resist it for long. Then these weak points were occupied by the Xiliang people, and they used this as a base to continue their attacks.

So Liang Zhenhai and Lu Tian brought people for reinforcements and fell into a passive state first.

"Why doesn't it look right?" Ji Fushou muttered to himself, "How can you see that there is a weak spot in Xiliang at a glance? He attacked those places without hesitation. Could it be that Xiliang's coach, Already able to see the flaws of Mayi City at a glance on the battlefield?"

She asked herself that she had led troops to fight for many years, but she hadn't developed such eyesight. If Xiliang's coach is really so powerful, then based on her observations of Lu Guogong during these days, Lu Guogong is not his opponent. .

I don't know what the British Duke's ability is, whether he can resist his attack, if not, Da Qi is really in danger.

It was only when this idea came to Ji Fushou's mind that she suddenly stopped, no, this is not right.

If Xiliang's coach is really so powerful, why did Sibo rush forward and shoot an arrow at him last time?The arrow almost killed him.

Ji Fushou rubbed the center of her brows, thinking about it, she went through the matter in her mind, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration, not only did the center of her brows not loosen, but formed a small clear wrinkle.

A worry arose in her heart, wouldn't anyone in the Da Qi army cooperate with Xiliang Li Yingwai?

Until Xiliang was driven away by Daqi, and several layers of corpses were left on the city tower, Ji Fushou turned and left with a solemn expression, "Let's go back and find a way to get Sibo to see me."

It is also for this reason that when the Duke of Lu heard that the soldiers guarding the city gate came to report that the people of Mayi City dragged their families and left a lot, he was slightly taken aback.

But immediately after, Duke Lu breathed a sigh of relief, "It's fine if the people leave, but there are no people in the city. It's only good for the implementation of our plan, not bad."

Others also think so, and the end of their plan is to catch the Xiliang army in Mayi City. If there are people in the city, if the Xiliang army uses them as a threat, unnecessary casualties will be added.

Ji Sibo's heart moved, and he took the initiative to say, "Commander, let me take someone to count how many people are still here in Mayi City. If those people haven't left yet, I will try to persuade them to leave temporarily."

Lu Guogong didn't feel any difference, so he agreed to his request.

It was Ji Cheng and the others that Ji Sibo brought to count the people. After leaving the camp and checking that there were no outsiders nearby, he stepped into the small house, while Ji Cheng and the others continued to patrol and count as if nothing had happened.

"aunt."

Seeing Ji Sibo come back, Ji Fushou nodded slightly, and said straight to the point: "From what I see in today's battle, Xiliang's attack is very clear. It looks like I got a tip-off from your army."

Ji Sibo didn't expect his aunt to be so sensitive that she could see the clues. He looked at her with admiration, and said in a low voice: "Auntie's conjecture is correct. It is true that someone in the army tipped off Xiliang. We took the initiative to report this information. given."
