The man was killed instantly by Xia He, and everyone on the high wall suddenly became silent, and no one dared to act rashly.
Someone whispered:
"There are only three of them. Let's just lead our troops out and surround them! With such a short distance, they can't escape even if they have wings!"
However, as soon as the words fell, someone shouted:
"Idiot! This guy's move is clearly a provocation, there must be an ambush behind him! If you lead the troops out, won't that play into his hands?"
Li Wu stood on the high wall, his face so gloomy that water seemed to drip out of it.
He didn't want to pay attention to Xia He's provocation, but Erpang at the foot of the mountain kept chattering and cursing.
From morning till night, Erpang hardly stopped talking, scolding everyone on the city wall, making them upset and angry.
"Li Wu, you coward! If you have the guts, come down and fight with me, your grandfather!"
"Wind and Thunder Sword Sect? I think it's the Wind and Thunder Turtle Sect! Hahaha!"
"You bunch of losers, you don't even dare to fight, you're no better than me! What's the point of rebellion? Go home and farm!"
Erpang's curses were like sharp knives, piercing everyone's hearts.
The disciples on the city wall had dark faces and their fists were clenched so hard that they made crackling sounds.
Many people could no longer hold back and wanted to rush down immediately to grind Xia He and his companions to ashes.
The rage within Li Wu grew stronger and stronger, almost swallowing him whole.
Xia He is not only his enemy, but also his inner demon.
If he doesn't get rid of Xia He, he won't be able to concentrate on his practice and will go astray if he's not careful.
Thinking of this, Li Wu couldn't bear it any longer and turned around to find his father Li Xiongtian.
"Father, that bastard has gone too far! If we don't get rid of him, our morale will collapse sooner or later! Please allow me to lead the troops out of the city and encircle Xia He!"
Li Wu's tone was urgent, his eyes full of pleading.
However, Li Xiongtian shook his head and said firmly:
"No! This man is cunning, and this move is clearly a trick to lure the enemy. If we rashly leave the city, we will be ambushed!"
Li Wu was unwilling to give in and wanted to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Li Xiongtian:
"There's no need to mention this matter anymore. Go back and appease everyone. Don't act rashly!"
Li Wu had no choice but to return home in disappointment.
However, in the next few days, Xia He and his companions continued to camp at the foot of the mountain, cursing loudly every day without interruption.
Xia He even threw javelins at the city walls every day. The power was so amazing that the patrolling disciples were so scared that they dared not show their heads anymore.
Occasionally, a few Hua Jin warriors refused to accept and went out of the city to fight, but they were all killed by Xia He one by one, and their bodies were thrown back under the city, which was a horrible sight.
The morale on the city wall plummeted and people's hearts were in turmoil.
Many disciples discussed privately:
"With such a powerful general on the Qin side, if we surrender to the Northern Barbarians and are attacked by them in the future, will we have a good ending?"
"Yes, this man is so powerful, why should we be his enemy? It is better to surrender as soon as possible, maybe we can save our lives..."
"Shut up, everyone!"
These remarks reached Li Wu's ears, making him even more anxious.
He found Li Xiongtian again and reported the situation in the city one by one.
After listening to this, Li Xiongtian frowned and felt uneasy.
He summoned several other sect leaders to discuss the matter, and they all agreed that if no action was taken, the army's morale would be weakened and the consequences would be disastrous.
"This guy has severely damaged our morale. If we don't get rid of him, I'm afraid we will lose our composure before the Northern Barbarians' reinforcements arrive."
A clan leader nodded in agreement:
"Yes, if this person is not removed, he will be a disaster in the end!"
Li Xiongtian pondered for a moment, still having concerns in his heart.
He walked to the city wall, took out a qi-gazing talisman left by his ancestors from his arms, crushed it and threw it into the sky.
The talisman paper turned into a green light and shot straight into the sky. A moment later, the scene in the direction of Youzhou was clearly reflected in front of everyone.
Outside Youzhou City, the main Qin troops were attacking the city fiercely, with flames of war raging and smoke rising everywhere.
Li Xiongtian observed carefully and found that the main force attacking the city was huge in number and had obviously come out in full force.
"Hmm? What's going on? Did the troops from the imperial court fight with the troops in Youzhou City?"
"Hahahaha, are they fighting among themselves?"
"God help me, God help me!"
He felt relieved and turned to everyone and said:
"Everyone, Youzhou has also rebelled! The main forces of the imperial court have all been deployed to attack the city. Apart from the two thousand people led by Zhu Yi, they absolutely cannot have any other troops in ambush! Our previous concerns were nothing but unnecessary!"
"What? Great!"
"It seems that the Qin Dynasty is doomed! But why did Youzhou rebel?"
"What does it have to do with us? Anyway, without the imperial army, we can fight back!"
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. Li Xiongtian continued:
"In that case, we can send out our troops without any worries. We can use 3,000 men to encircle Xia He and his 2,000 men! In this battle, we have the advantage!"
A hint of excitement flashed in Li Wu's eyes, and he clenched his fists and said:
"Father is wise! This time, Xia He must not return!"
Li Xiongtian nodded, and then gave a loud order:
"All troops, listen up! Leave the city immediately and encircle and destroy this beast!"
As soon as the order was given, the morale of the people on the city wall was immediately boosted, and they were all ready to fight.
Li Wu couldn't wait any longer and wanted to rush down the mountain immediately to cut Xia He into pieces!
However, just as they were preparing to leave the city.
Xia He stood at the foot of the mountain, looked up at the high wall, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
He whispered to the two people beside him: "Let's go!"
Three thousand soldiers and horses rushed out from the high walls like a tide, full of murderous intent, and rushed straight towards Xia He and his men.
