"Uncle Nan means to strike in advance! Control Su Batian first! But Li Hao seems to have other ideas!"
"what?"
"I don't know either! But it doesn't really matter!"
"Why do you say that?"
Chen Lei smiled indifferently.
"Because in the face of absolute strength, any resistance is in vain!"
"What do you need me to do?"
"Want to hear what's in your heart?"
"Of course I want to hear it!"
"I need you to leave Tianshi City immediately! This is why I just wanted to lie to you!"
"Brother Lei! What did you say?"
"I said, I need you to leave Tianshi City!"
"Why?"
"Because the difference in strength between the two sides is so huge! There is no chance of winning in this battle! Even if you stay, it will just give you one more life, nothing more! So I need you to go. I also need the pony to go. I need you people,
Everyone go!”
"how about you?"
"I'm different from you, I can't leave!"
"Why can't you leave?"
"Because Uncle Nan is here, I have to accompany Uncle Nan! But you don't have to. There is no need to stay here and die with us!"
"Brother Lei, Uncle Nan's status in your mind is the same as yours in mine! If you don't leave, I won't leave!"
Chen Lei hesitated for a few seconds.
"Xiao'er! Listen to me, I accept your wishes. But this time there is really no chance. No matter how hard I try, I will not let you go. We brothers have to fight with them!
But if you stay now, you will only die! Then there is no need!"
"You are not from the Western Region, and you are still burdened with so many things. Do what you want to do! Don't risk your life here!"
"Brother Lei, stop talking, I won't leave! Wherever you are, we will be there! I believe that not only am I unwilling to leave, but Xiaoma and the others will definitely not leave either! In the worst case, I will fight with them! I'm afraid.
What!"
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a moment, and Chen Lei let out a long sigh.
"Then follow the plan and prepare in advance!..."
After hanging up the phone, Xiaolong looked at Wang Xiao!
"Is it stable this time? Can you take action?"
Wang Xiao took a deep breath and nodded, his eyes looking a little complicated.
"Brother Xiao, isn't it now, you haven't made up your mind yet? There is no other choice! This opportunity cannot be missed, you must not hesitate!"
"I'm not that indecisive, and I will definitely keep doing things. I just feel a little sorry for Brother Lei..."
At Su Batian's home, Su Batian was playing Go with Su Hongliang.
Yan Fengshuo came in.
"Commander, it's time!"
Today happens to be Li Tianshi’s first seven days.
According to the custom of Tianshi City, the relatives and friends of the deceased will give him the last farewell!
Su Batian Heizi landed and smiled slightly.
"Brother Hongliang, I win!"
Su Hongliang held the white piece in his hand and looked at the chessboard. After a long time, he gave up the move.
"Commander, your chess skills are really getting better and better. There is only one step left. If you don't make this move, I will make this move! I will win!"
"Masters compete with each other, and the difference is just the slightest, normal!"
"Besides, I can lose you once or twice, but can I still lose you all the time?"
Su Hongliang stood up, raised his hand in salute, and there was something in his words.
"Do you have to go?"
Su Batian nodded.
"Yes, we must go! I want to see the city lord off on his last journey!"
"Then I wish the general a triumphant return!"
Su Batian walked to the dressing mirror, straightened his collar, and put on all his military medals!
Looking at myself in the mirror, I feel like I have returned to forty years ago.
"City Lord, I'm here!..."
City Lord's Mansion, in Li Tianshi's room.
Li Hao, wearing mourning clothes and mourning, stood alone in front of the simple memorial table, staring at the photo of his father on the memorial tablet. He felt sad!
The door opened! Su Batian walked in! He was in a low mood. There was endless sentimentality in his words!
"Xiao Hao!"
Xiao Hao is the unified name given to Li Hao by Li Nan, Su Batian and others.
"Uncle Su, you are here!"
Li Hao hurried forward and grabbed Su Batian's hand. Tears could not help but flow down his face!
"My child, stop crying! My uncle will definitely avenge your father!"
Su Batian hugged Li Hao, his eye circles were red!
Everything between the two of them at this moment is a true expression of their feelings! There is nothing false about it!
He gradually adjusted his condition, squatted on the ground, and burned paper for Li Tianshi!
The fire was very strong and smoke was billowing.
"Uncle, my dad is really gone, isn't he?"
"Hey, Xiaohao, please forgive me and accept the change."
Li Hao was not speaking. There was silence in the room, except for the sound of burning paper.
"City Lord, I'm here to see you off..."
All processes end.
Li Hao helped Su Batian sit down, took the initiative to pour tea, and fulfilled the etiquette of a junior!
Su Batian didn't show any humility either, drinking tea and chatting.
As everyone's mood gradually eased, Su Batian was the first to speak.
"Where's Li Nan?"
"I'll be here in a moment. By the way, uncle, I want to ask about Yu Shao and the others. How do you plan to deal with it?"
"I'm taking care of it. We have rescued tens of thousands of brothers in the past two days, and most of them are wounded soldiers!"
"What's next?"
"Let's continue!"
"Is it impossible to continue?"
Li Hao's voice is not loud.
"They have now seen through our true purpose! To this end, Tianhu City has separately pulled out three divisions to focus on our division responsible for rescue in the gap! Continue to exert pressure!"
"As a result, we now have no way to carry out sneak attacks and infiltrations like before, and save people through gaps!"
Su Batian nodded.
"It is indeed a lot more troublesome to do it now than before, but that doesn't mean there is absolutely no chance! As long as Yu Shao and the others hold on and continue to make detours, we will definitely be able to find loopholes to save people!"
Li Hao took a deep breath.
"Uncle Su, Yu Shao and the others no longer have any logistical supplies. If they continue to consume like this, they will run out of ammunition and food!"
"At that time, these thirty or forty thousand people will be thrown away in vain! These are all the elites of our Tianshi City First Army!"
Li Hao is full of energy and firm attitude.
"We must rescue them before they run out of ammunition and food!"
Su Batian's eyes were full of helplessness.
"Xiao Hao, do you think I don't want to save people? Then I can still save them!"
"Then you continue to send reinforcements!"
"Sending more reinforcements?"
Su Batian said every word.
"We have already dispatched three divisions. If we send more, our interior in Tianshi City will be too empty! If someone takes advantage of the situation and sneaks in, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"In other words, now there are three large armies in Jinxiu and one large army in Tianhucheng. Four armies with nearly half a million troops are pursuing and interdicting Yu Shao and the others! This does not include the local security forces from Tengfei!"
"In this case, whether we send out three divisions, six or ten divisions, the result will be the same!"
"If you insist on sending more reinforcements, if something goes wrong again in the process, who will defend the city then?"
"At that time, all the troops outside will be surrounded and annihilated, and the city will become empty! If they randomly dispatch some troops and march northward, Tianshi City will be completely destroyed!"
"Xiao Hao, you must be clear about one thing, that is, we border Jinxiu!"
"Jinxiu doesn't just have these three armies, it has more than ten!"
"They can continue to support us at any time, and they can also launch an attack on our Tianshi City at any time! This must be guarded against!"
What Su Batian said is indeed the truth and well-founded!
"My current arrangement will make Yu Shao and the others Alexander, but at least it can ensure that Tiens City has peace of mind! I dare to pat my chest and promise you that with my first group army here, Tiens City will be the strongest fortress! Anyone
Don’t even think about calling in! I can make them discount as much as they come!”
Su Batian's words are not exaggerated. The city defense system of Tianshi City can be described as super abnormal. The first group army of Tianshi City is matched with his defense system. It can definitely deal with any emergency situation!
Li Hao knew that Su Batian was telling the truth.
After thinking for a moment, he slowly shook his head.
"I personally think that Jinxiu will not send more troops to us. Neither will Tianhu City! What they need to do most now is to digest the territory they have swallowed!"
"Xiao Hao, you are still young. Nothing is impossible in this world!"
"Even if it is possible, I can't ignore Yu Shao and the others!"
Li Hao's voice was low and his attitude was firm.
"Even if I risk everything, I still have to rescue my 30,000 to 40,000 Tianshi City brothers! So, I ask you to send more reinforcements immediately! Pull out six more divisions, and take Liu Tianhu's three by surprise first.
The division fought back, and then drove straight in! Let Yu Shao and the others break out of the encirclement as well, and open their mouths with all their strength to rescue all the people!"
"If it works, it will work. If it doesn't work, or if other changes happen, I, Li Hao, am willing to bear everything! I will never regret it!"
Li Hao and Li Nan have been secretly staring at Su Batian for the past two days, observing his every move!
Make every effort to prepare and take precautions!
But no matter how careful you are, you can't change the disparity in strength between the two sides!
If Su Batian really resists, they have no good way to counterattack!
For Li Hao and others, the only chance is to strike first!
Find the right opportunity before Su Batian rebels!
Catch Su Batian and all his senior staff in one fell swoop, leaving no one behind!
If you leave one behind, the consequences will be disastrous!
It is not an easy thing to create such an opportunity. The right time, right place, right people and the right people cannot be missing!
So for Li Hao, the most important thing now is to stabilize his position and Su Batian!
As a result, at this juncture, what happened to Yu Shao happened again!
Yu Shao has 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers, all of whom are regular troops of the Tiens City First Army!
If this team can return to Tiens City safely, it will definitely be a big help to Li Hao and the others!
However, Su Batian's various behaviors have made Yu Shao and his team's path home more and more confusing!
If Li Hao doesn't intervene, maybe none of Yu Shao and the others will come back!
This was also forced by Li Hao, who really had no choice.
He could only be cruel and show off his cards directly when his father, Su Batian, came to the city lord's mansion to pay his respects!
Su Batian also felt Li Hao's determination.
He took a sip of tea.
"I know, I'll make arrangements when I get back!"
Su Batian stood up, turned around and left.
Just as he opened the door, several soldiers from the City Lord's Mansion garrison appeared, blocking Su Batian's way out!
