When everyone heard this, they all widened their eyes excitedly, stretched their necks and stood on tiptoe to look into the distance.
I saw a group of people coming in the distance, like a winding dragon, slowly extending towards Wuyi City...
The sunlight shines on them, and they seem like a group of heavenly soldiers and generals, with their own divine light.
The people on the gate tower of Wuyi City were so excited that they burst into tears when they saw the Heavenly God Army approaching.
"Oh my god, the savior army of the gods has come, they are coming..."
"We are saved, we are saved... wuwu..."
"Ahhh! The God Army is finally here..."
"Quick, go down and kneel down to win the Heavenly God Army..."
“.......”
The people on the city gate tower supported each other, dragged their weak bodies, and walked excitedly down the city gate tower.
The people of Wuyi City had long heard about the situation in Shiquan City.
So they excitedly stood guard at the city gate every day, cleaned the gate thoroughly, and kept the gate wide open all day long.
Ever since those escaped elite soldiers fled to the capital with the officials of Wuyi City, the gates of Wuyi City have never been closed, just to be able to welcome the Heavenly God Army at any time.
Everyone descended from the city gate tower and knelt on either side of the gate, looking sideways toward the official road, excitedly awaiting the arrival of the Heavenly God Army...
.......
“Huh!?”
Lin Yiran picked up the telescope hanging around her neck, looked at the city gate tower of Wuyi City, and frowned in confusion.
"What's wrong!?"
When Xiao Yunzhan heard Lin Yiran's puzzled voice, he turned around and looked at her in surprise.
Lin Yiran picked up the telescope and looked at Wuyi City again, then frowned and looked at Xiao Yunzhan.
"Look, Wuyi City is a bit weird."
"Why is there no one on the city gate tower? The city gate is packed with people, and the gate is wide open..."
"When things are out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on. Could it be the empty city plan?"
This situation is very much like the Empty City Strategy, except for a military advisor playing the zither on the city gate tower.
If it really is the "empty city plan", it's not a big deal.
What I am afraid of is that these people will become so cruel as to threaten the lives of ordinary people.
Looking at the many people kneeling at the city gate, they felt like they were waiting to be beheaded, with tears streaming down their faces.
Xiao Yunzhan immediately picked up the telescope and looked towards Wuyi City.
"Strange, there isn't a single soldier on the gate tower of Wuyi City."
"Could it be that those soldiers disguised themselves as civilians and knelt behind them to hide?"
Xiao Yunzhan looked carefully at the kneeling people again.
This time, he really saw soldiers interspersed among the civilians.
"Of course, the soldiers of Wuyi City are kneeling among the people. Please be careful..."
He studied the "Art of War" given by Ranran with the military advisor, and the situation in Wuyi City was indeed very similar to the empty city plan.
But it doesn't seem like it. The tears on the people's faces don't look like they are fine.
I don’t know what the officials in Wuyi City are up to.
Lin Yiran happened to see a few soldiers appearing.
She put down the telescope and looked at Xiao Yunzhan seriously.
"If they use civilians to threaten us, then just shoot those soldiers."
Lin Yiran glanced at the crossbow on Xiao Yunzhan's back.
"You're in charge of the right side, and I'll be in charge of the left side. If there's any movement, we'll just do it."
Xiao Yunzhan caught Lin Yiran's gaze and raised his hand to take the crossbow on his back.
"Okay, let's see the situation first."
Lin Yiran turned the sleeve arrow on her wrist and looked at Lin Changshou who was running back from the front.
Lin Changshou led the Lin family army to march and explore the way, and served as a scout in the Tianshen Army.
Lin Changshou had a telescope hanging around his neck, and he ran towards Lin Yiran from a distance, his lips pursed.
“Report!!!”
Xiao Yunzhan grabbed the reins and raised his hand to stop the army.
Everyone from the Xiao family who followed Xiao Yunzhan and Lin Yiran looked at Lin Changshou.
Lin Changshou knelt on one knee in front of Lin Yiran.
"All the officials in Wuyi City followed those elite soldiers and fled to the capital. The people and soldiers defending the city surrendered directly!"
"I've entered the city and seen that there are only a few soldiers left defending Wuyi City. The city has been suffering from a long-term water shortage, and the people are almost unable to hold on."
When his men passed this news to him from the front, he was still worried that they had been deceived by the people of Wuyi City.
So he rode away as fast as he could and went to investigate in person.
He quietly walked up behind the people kneeling at the city gate and listened to what was happening.
Then he quietly sneaked into the city through the city gate and strolled up and down the city gate tower.
After seeing this, he was sure that Wuyi City was really left unattended.
Dust was flying in Wuyi City, the ground was cracked, and many people were wriggling on the ground, all of them trying their best to open their mouths that were cracked to the point of bursting.
The people were all moaning, "Water, water...Heavenly...Divine Army, save...our lives."
He felt extremely distressed when he saw the hellish scene on earth.
If he and the villagers had not met Lin Yiran, they would have been turned into dust by now.
The people in the city have no water to drink, not to mention the surrounding villages.
However, as soon as the water shortage came, the people in the surrounding villages all fled to the south to escape the famine.
Everyone knows that there is a lot of rain in the south.
The people in their village were relatively united, but those with families fell behind a little, and then they met Lin Yiran.
He now feels somewhat fortunate that he did not give up on anyone in the village, which is why he has such good luck.
Although many elderly people died, all the young and middle-aged people survived.
