Chapter 131 - Riots in Yuanjiang CityInside Yuanjiang City.
On the towering city wall, dozens of figures stared down at the menacing army, their expressions as grim as water.
As time pa.s.sed, the pressure in the air caused everyone to feel suffocated.
"Everyone, what should we do?"
A slightly plump man dressed as a merchant looked around and said in a clear voice.However, when faced with this person"s question, the surrounding people looked at each other in dismay. No one answered.
"Patriarch Li, what do you think?"
Some people, however, understood that the man had already made up his mind upon hearing his words.
"I can"t say that they have a high opinion of him, but they probably understand him.
At this time, the fifty thousand strong army of the County Governor Zhuang is attacking us, and no one wants to fight for the Ninth Prince at all.
Patriarch Li smiled indifferently, as he spoke frankly with a.s.surance."Everyone here is a reputable figure in Yuanjiang City.
I think everyone does not want to see the Ninth Prince acting so mighty in the Yuanjiang City. This is a great chance to get rid of him! "
Seeing that everyone was moved, the Patriarch Li took the opportunity to strike the iron wall."This …"
Even though those words were said, the crowd still hesitated.It was not because of anything else, but because no matter what, the Ninth Prince held a heavy soldier.
Although he might not be a match for County Governor Zhuang, he would still head to the border to perform his military service. At least, he would be able to return to Yuanjiang City.
At that time, if Ninth Prince were to be counted out, they would not be able to stop it."Everyone, are you still worried that the Ninth Prince will return alive?
Let me remind all of you, County Governor Zhuang is one of the First Prince"s men! "
Everyone"s thoughts were as clear as the sun and the Patriarch Li immediately sneered.
Hearing this, everyone"s hearts turned cold as they remained silent. They had heard of the royal clan"s battle."I a.s.sume you all already understand that the best method is to open a city and surrender.
Otherwise, when the County Governor Zhuang gets settled, he will not be merciful! "Then, the Patriarch Li said with a faint threat.
"Alright, since that"s the case, let"s do as Patriarch Li says!"
Everyone gritted their teeth and agreed.
"Everyone, follow me, open the gate for the County Governor Zhuang!"With that, Patriarch Li took the lead and walked towards the city gate.
This group of people were the leaders of the various great clans and powers in Yuanjiang City.Soon, they arrived at the city gate.
"Who are you? Why haven"t you left the important areas of the city?"
Two soldiers blocked their way in front of the city gate.
"We are the Patriarchs of the big families in the city. Warriors, please report this to your generals!"
Patriarch Li cupped his hands and said.
"I"ll report it to the General Huo right now!"The two soldiers were shocked. They looked at each other and one of them immediately turned around to report.
The patriarchs of the Yuanjiang City came here together, afraid that there would be another incident!Not long after, a general wearing silver armor and carrying a white robe walked in with large strides.
"General Huo greets you!"
Patriarch Li immediately smiled and went forward to welcome him.
This was a general under the command of the Ninth Prince, and he was in control of the five thousand Black Armored Army soldiers.If he could rebel against him, County Governor Zhuang would benefit greatly!
"My respects!"
Huo Qubing frowned, this group of people coming to the city gate at this time, they were not here to play.
"General Huo, I have something to say. I can seek a great benefit for General!"The Patriarch Li smiled mysteriously, took a step forward and said to Huo Qubing.
"Oh? "Tell me about it."
Huo Qubing"s eyes flashed as he laughed.
Indeed, these people had other plans. He wanted to see what methods they had.
"The Ninth Prince is weak, he is definitely not a match for the County Governor Zhuang, why should generals work so hard for him?Why not open the city and surrender and allow the County Governor Zhuang to enter, at that time, the County Governor Zhuang would also benefit greatly from it! "
Patriarch Li went straight to the point and said directly.
