Chapter 140
Li Taihang went to find the people in Jackdaw Town first.
At this time, because of the battle of the mountain pass, the people in the whole Jackdaw Town were in low spirits, and they were mourning for the dead.
In the square, the bodies of the dead were placed and pulled to the square, ready to be cremated together.
Everyone looked at the dead in the battle, and their hearts were sad.
"Does Mr. Li's method really work? Are they really willing to stop the war?"
"Not sure."
"Hey..."
Guo Kaien sighed, glanced at Liu Tiancheng beside him, and said, "How long do you think we can hold on?"
"It's estimated that it won't last for a few days, especially with the appearance of General Zhao. I feel that it would be a miracle if we can hold on for half a day."
Originally, the mountain pass was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they still had the confidence to defend it.
But after this battle, they also saw their own strength clearly.
After all, the Tiefeng Army was too powerful, and they were not the opponent at all.
As the flames burned more and more fiercely, the bodies inside turned into black smoke and flew into the sky.
But their mood would not disappear with it.
"I can only feel sorry for these dead brothers."
Originally, these dead officers and soldiers were to be buried, but because there was no extra space in Jackdaw Town, they had to bury hundreds of dead at once.
So, they could only choose cremation.
This was somewhat disrespectful to the dead, but there was no other way.
At this time, Li Taihang brought Ye Lan'er to the square.
After seeing them, the county magistrate and others came over one after another.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Li is back."
When they saw Li Taihang, they all surrounded him happily.
"Mr. Li."
Guo Kaien and Liu Tiancheng also came to Li Taihang.
"Mr. Li, how is it?"
Li Taihang said a little depressed: "Do you know that Zhao Chong?"
"Yes, he is the commander of the Tiefeng Army. Speaking of which, this Tiefeng Army was trained by him. He is very famous. How could we not know him?" The county magistrate said quickly.
Li Taihang glanced at the people, and the people nodded one after another.
"Well, there is a problem with him."
"What do you mean?"
Everyone was a little puzzled.
"He already knows the truth, but he still wants to execute military orders and wants to continue to deal with you."
"What?"
Li Taihang's words shocked all of them.
"Is this Zhao Chong sick?"
"Yes, and the plague has been eliminated now, and we have all returned to normal. Why is he still so stubborn?"
"General Liu, has this Zhao Chong always been like this?" Someone looked at Liu Tiancheng.
Liu Tiancheng's face turned pale, and he said, "Well, he is loyal to the city lord. I guess the city lord gave him an order to kill him at that time, which means that no matter what the reason is, we must die."
"Oh my God, such an order is too much."
Everyone was panicked.
Li Taihang thought for a while and said, "Your strength is too weak after all. If they attack regardless of casualties, I'm afraid you can't hold on."
Li Taihang has also seen their combat effectiveness, so he knows the difference between them and the Tiefeng Army.
"Then what should we do? Will we be killed again?"
Everyone looked at Li Taihang. Now, only he can bring them hope.
Li Taihang thought for a while and said, "You don't have to panic. If Zhao Chong is still stubborn, I will deal with him myself."
Hearing Li Taihang's words, everyone felt a little relieved.
"However, I am a cultivator after all, and I will not interfere too much with you, so I will only take action when necessary. In the end, it still depends on you, understand?"
"I understand, Master Li."
"Then, Master Li, what else do you think we can do?" The county magistrate asked hurriedly.
They seem to be unable to do anything except defending now.
"If the news here can be spread out and people outside know the situation here, there may be unexpected results."
"I understand."
"I will take you to spread the news."
Then, Li Taihang took out a blood letter, which contained the confession of Lord Zhao and the master.
"Give this confession to Lin Tiancheng's superior, there may be unexpected benefits."
"Lin Tiancheng's superior?"
They thought of King Nanlong.
"But this distance is too far." The county magistrate said helplessly.
"It's okay, I'm here, as for the final result, it depends on your luck."
"Alas."
King Nanlong didn'tI don't know whether he will take care of this matter, but after all, this is a rebellion in his territory. If he can't deal with it in time, it will definitely endanger his position.
And what Li Taihang can do is to help them spread the news here.
He thought about spreading this matter in Pingyuan City, but he felt that Lin Tianlong was ruthless, and he bribed the local nobles and wealthy businessmen, so he was afraid that when the news spread, it would not have much effect.
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." The county magistrate was naturally eager to hear that Li Taihang would help.
However, before leaving, Li Taihang still had to find a way to deal with the matter here.
He thought about it, looked at Ye Lan'er, and said, "Lan'er, you stay here."
"Stop the war."
Li Taihang gave Ye Lan'er an order.
"No problem." Ye Lan'er made an OK gesture to Li Taihang, which was taught by Li Taihang.
"Okay, then I'll take the county magistrate to the Nanlong Palace."
"Yes."
Li Taihang looked at the county magistrate and said, "Do you know the way?"
"Of course I do."
"Okay, let's go."
"Okay."
Then, Li Taihang summoned the silly bird.
When the giant bird monster king appeared, everyone in the square was shocked.
"Okay, what a big beast."
"Don't be afraid, everyone, this is my pet." Li Taihang said, "Silly bird, lower your body, we are going to go up."
When the people around heard this name, they were stunned for a moment. Such a big and beautiful giant bird was called a silly bird by Li Taihang.
Is it really a silly bird?
"Master, don't call me that in front of everyone?" The silly bird sent a message to Li Taihang aggrievedly.
Li Taihang glared at it.
The silly bird could only squat down obediently.
Then, Li Taihang took the county magistrate and climbed onto the silly bird's body.
"Mr. County Magistrate, please show us the way. Which direction should we fly to? Or do you have a map or something?"
"I remember the way."
"Okay."
So they flew into the sky. Li Taihang even got Mr. Zhao and the master out of their detention.
In this way, with both witnesses and evidence, it would be much easier to deal with.
