Lin Yun's words immediately shocked Xiao Sheng and the general.
They were isolated from the news and all the information came from Lin Yun.
When Xiao Sheng talked about it before, the young man in front of him avoided talking about it.
Now that it was said, he couldn't accept it.
This is not Lin Yun's fault. If he had told Beiguancheng the truth from the beginning, their only remaining hope would have been shattered, and there would have been no more desperate resistance.
This can also be considered a white lie.
Xiao Sheng slowly raised his head. He really wanted to confirm again whether it was true.
Did the powerful Wu Dynasty lose half of its territory just like that?
But Lin Yun had no reason to lie to him.
This young man got nothing from Beiguancheng.
And he was also trying his best to help.
Xiao Sheng unconsciously took two steps back, as if the mountain that had been pressing on him from the beginning had increased its weight again, completely crushing him.
He began to doubt himself.
What has been the reason for your persistence all this time?
Is it Wu Chao's giving up?
Or is it the despair emanating from the eyes of tens of thousands of citizens in the city?
"If you leave Wu Dynasty, you will not be able to live?"
Lin Yun's cold voice reached his ears.
He approached step by step, and was face to face with Xiao Sheng, almost face to face.
"Just because the Wu Dynasty gave up on you, you're going to give up on yourself? Where's all the persistence you've had these past few months? And where do you put the city's citizens who consider you their backbone?"
"oh--"
Lin Yun pretended to be enlightened.
"I see. It's Wu Chao's credit that you were able to hold Beiguan City for so long. Okay, then, let me break through the siege and tell Emperor Wu that you're still fighting hard. Let's see if he'll come to rescue you personally."
It is impossible for him to go to Wu Dynasty.
But once Xiao Sheng dared to nod, he would leave Beiguan City without hesitation and return to Xuanwu City.
It would be better for him not to help someone who doesn't even trust his own city.
What a crap mission! Even if we accept these people, they will just be a few thousand more mouths to feed.
It's not worth his effort.
As for the penalty for mission failure, he had already forcibly upgraded his defense system, and couldn't afford to lose any more, so continuing to lose wouldn't be a big deal.
Let's put the construction of the city on hold for now. There are only 500 people, and we can succeed by collecting them slowly.
Xiao Sheng was frightened by Lin Yun's cold eyes and broke out in a cold sweat.
This feeling made his battle with Tianmu Mingwang even more terrifying.
It made him sense that the city was in danger of being destroyed!
yes.
City Lord Lin was right. Emperor Wu of the Wu Dynasty never provided any substantial help, either in peacetime or during the resistance in Beiguan City.
Why do they still rely on the Wu Dynasty?
Why put our hopes on reinforcements that may never come?
The real reinforcements have arrived long ago.
This is the young man in front of you who can defeat thousands of troops alone!
Lin Yun looked at Xiao Sheng with a firm look in his eyes again.
He took a step back and said slowly:
"When I first arrived at Xuanwu City, it had already become a ruin. Over the past few months, after my continuous construction, Xuanwu City has begun to take shape, and I have become the City Lord Lin you mentioned."
"But has my status as the city lord been recognized by the Martial Emperor? Was I appointed by the Martial Dynasty?"
Xiao Sheng shook his head subconsciously.
Who doesn't know that the official lord of Xuanwu City is the King of Zhenbei?
"So, do I need the recognition of his Wu Dynasty? The land under our feet is no longer under the jurisdiction of the Wu Dynasty. In other words, this is our territory. What qualifications does he have to recognize us?"
"Now, we are fighting to the death for the citizens of the city. This is our territory. Why should we be recognized by them?"
Lin Yun grabbed Xiao Sheng's collar.
He cursed:
"Look at these soldiers. Why haven't they given up yet? Are they waiting for reinforcements?"
Xiao Sheng shook his head in surprise.
Maybe some of these soldiers were really waiting for reinforcements, but most of them were waiting for the lights of the thousands of homes behind them!
There were worried wives and parents waiting for them to come home, and there were also babbling children who were sensible enough not to cry, only to be held in their father's strong arms.
Xiao Sheng understood it completely.
His eyes were no longer confused, and the iron-blooded aura in his body burst out again.
What the hell is this Wu Dynasty?
If you can't defend your own territory, you are a waste!
Lin Yun stepped on the ground, pointed at the city and said:
"This is your home right now. Do you want to protect it from being trampled by ferocious monsters?"
"Protect our home!"
The soldiers shouted in unison!
He took out the Xuanjing Pills and healing pills that he had prepared in advance from his arms and distributed them.
These people don’t know what fine elixirs are. They just feel that after taking them, both the wounds on their bodies and the spiritual energy in their bodies instantly return to their peak state.
Even those who had broken limbs were full of energy, and the broken wounds did not cause any excruciating pain.
They only knew that this pill was good, but they never imagined that this pill could buy dozens of their lives.
Lin Yun didn't say it out loud on purpose.
Since you have chosen to help others, don't think about making others bear the burden of your favor.
This defeats the purpose.
Besides, they can't afford to pay it back.
Lin Yun smiled slightly.
"In that case, let's win this battle and let everyone in Tianwu Continent who is watching know that there are still people in the North who are determined to resist to the death, and that the fire is still shining brightly!"
After these words, the morale of all the soldiers was boosted again.
Xiao Sheng looked at the scene and nodded slightly.
It seems that when observing a person, we should never look at their state of mind or age.
Those are all deceptive things.
Three hours ago, who would have thought that this young man who blew up the city defense formation with one punch would be able to successfully defend again.
He also spent a lot of money to repair the city defense formation and the injuries of the soldiers.
Others don’t know the value of it. If the mayor of Beiguan City doesn’t know the value of it, then his vision is too narrow.
He had only seen top-grade elixirs at auctions!
And the price is amazing. The price of one pill is enough to repair the city defense formation!
But he didn't say it out loud.
He has not yet come to this favor, and he is unable to repay it.
At this time, Lin Yun walked towards him.
He gently patted the shoulder of the Lord of Beiguan City.
"I'm afraid the next step will be the final attack of the two commanders. Tianmu Mingwang is seriously injured, but his strength should not be underestimated. When the time comes, it will be up to you to stop Tianmu Mingwang first, and I will go and kill Dihu."
"Okay! Xiao will not refuse, even if it means death!"
Lin Yun did not blame Xiao Sheng for saying such discouraging words.
