"Master Xu."
Xu Jiang held the phone in his hand, listening to the resentful voice coming from it: "Back then, when you first established the Qiu Camp, I brought my brothers to join you without any hesitation."
"Brothers also have families. We are fighting on the front lines relying on our resolve."
"Even if we die on the battlefield, at least..."
"When the remains are sent home, someone from the family will help us collect the bodies."
"But now, the brothers are still on the front line, but they received the bad news from home first."
"I know I have no right to say this, but even if you want to execute me, I will still say it."
"You have to give the brothers an explanation for this matter."
Xu Jiang listened silently to the other party finish speaking.
He just found out what exactly happened.
He already knew everything the lower city army did in the upper city.
From the petty thefts at the beginning to now...
Burning, killing and looting.
Xu Jiang also understands the people in the downtown area.
There is no shortage of greedy people in the lower city.
When they hold the power to decide the life and death of others, the greed in their hearts will be suddenly aroused at a certain point in time.
Until it's out of control.
Just like now.
Two million troops entering the upper city are naturally a force that cannot be ignored.
But it also brought another trouble.
That's difficult to manage.
The main reason is lack of manpower.
Of the five legions that had gone down to the city, only the two legion commanders, Lu Yiming and Duan Weijun, chose to come to the upper city.
Among them, Lu Yiming was promoted to this position "exceptional" because he was more familiar with Shangcheng.
In fact, he did not have strong control over the army.
In other words, apart from Duan Weijun, Ning Fan doesn't have many people available.
This resulted in the two million-strong team losing their discipline and becoming a double-edged sword that could hurt others as well as themselves.
For Xu Jiang, this is indeed a headache.
The troops in the lower city are not under his jurisdiction.
More importantly, even from his perspective, he couldn't be sure whether Ning Fan had acquiesced in this matter.
The friendship between Xu Jiang and Ning Fan was built on the foundation of [Wild Dog House].
His understanding of Ning Fan was actually not that profound.
"I'll give you an answer within a day."
Xu Jiang was silent for a long time, then added, "Don't worry, I won't let the brothers on the front line down."
"Okay, Master Xu, I'll wait for your news."
The person on the other end hung up the phone.
Although the other party still maintained respect for Xu Jiang, Xu Jiang could feel that the morale of the front line had been hit.
With this kind of thing happening in your own backyard, whose mental state wouldn't be affected?
Similarly, Xu Jiang also knew that if this matter was not handled properly...
There will be big problems!
Perhaps there would be no need for Diancheng to take action, and his side would fall apart.
Xu Jiang held the phone and fell into deep thought, thinking about how to discuss this matter with Ning Fan.
Logically speaking, I've already received the news, and Ning Fan...
Is it really possible that you know nothing?
If Ning Fan already knew about this and still remained silent...
Xu Jiang frowned and thought for a long time, then decided to contact Lin Chuan and Xu Ben first.
He needed to hear what these two people thought first.
However, just as he was about to make the call, there was a knock on the door.
"Master Xu, I'm Ning Fan."
Xu Jiang looked at the door, hesitated for a moment, then walked up and opened it.
Outside the door, Ning Fan's face was not looking good.
"Master Xu, I'm here to apologize."
Ning Fan didn't exchange any pleasantries and got straight to the point: "I didn't manage the people below well. It's my fault. I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
After hearing this, Xu Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Ning Fan's attitude showed that he really didn't know about this matter before.
Now it is obvious that the problem has been solved.
"There are already bad voices coming from the front lines."
Although the two did not express themselves clearly, they both knew what the other was saying.
"I can imagine."
Ning Fan entered the room. "The battle is going on at the front lines, and our people back home have been wronged. It's already good enough that there's no mutiny."
Ning Fan immediately realized this problem after learning about this matter.
Back then, Xu Jiang drew away the combat forces from every city and established the Qiu Camp.
In other words, the families of the soldiers in Qiu Camp were left in the city.
When the troops from the lower city entered the city and caused chaos, their families were inevitably affected.
This is what Ning Fan had said to Duan Weijun before: an unforgivable mistake.
If Ning Fan chooses to ignore it, then it is not just a question of bottom line.
Ning Fan didn't know the strength of Diancheng, he just learned a little from Xu Jiang, as he had never actually fought against him.
Therefore, he did not dare to rashly judge that he could win with the power in his hands.
Moreover, now, among all the forces in the lower city, he is the only one who can exert his full strength. Those top combat forces who were able to help him in the past can no longer provide him with support.
If the Qiu camp mutinied, Diancheng might even take this opportunity to drive Ning Fan back to the lower city.
It is precisely because of this that Ning Fan must be decisive in handling this matter.
"There are too many people causing trouble. It's unrealistic to arrest them all."
Ning Fan said seriously, "But if you tell me, I will definitely give it to you."
