Chapter 198 [Destruction of Dongyi City]

Dongyi City.

The army besieged the city.

Things developed very quickly and caught us off guard.

Qiu Zhu led an army of 100,000 and approached the city.

The entire Dongyi City is now closed to people who can only enter but not leave.

The walls of Dongyi City are not very strong.

Or maybe it's a kind of confidence.

With a sword in hand, why do we need city walls?

The news of the fusion of the north and the south and the unification of the world has spread.

Now, whether it is Northern Qi, Qing Kingdom, or Dongyi City, everyone knows the news.

The unification of the world seems to be inevitable.

After dealing with Ku He, the next place to go is naturally Dongyi City.

For a time, the people of Dongyi City were in panic.

However, only ordinary people have such a state of mind.

None of Si Gu Jian's disciples were afraid.

One man and one sword guard a city, this sentence is not just talk.

They have absolute confidence in their master or forefather.

After witnessing the power of his swordsmanship, I developed a natural and indelible confidence.

Even if the army is at the gate of the city, these people still keep you calm.

In the early years, Qing Kingdom and Northern Qi had sent large armies more than once to destroy Dongyi City.

But in the end, they all ended in failure.

“This time is no exception!”

"Correct!"

"With Master here, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

Among all the forces in the world, Dongyi City has the most masters.

Although Dongyi City is only one city, it ranks first in the world in terms of the number of ninth-grade masters.

Si Gu Jian accepted many disciples.

Most of them have advanced to the ninth level.

It's called Jianlu.

The number of ninth-grade masters in Jian Lu is comparable to that of a country.

Therefore, Dongyi City is very confident in its own strength.

"Come on, I'm worried that I can't find an opponent!"

"Do you really think that our Dongyi City is easy to bully?"

"Although we in Dongyi City have not established a country, we are not afraid of any country!"

People in the city were talking about it.

Not arrogant, but very confident.

Mysterious self-confidence!

With an army of one hundred thousand at the gates of the city, he could still say such words.

Visible confidence.

In fact, it is not their fault. Many years ago, Northern Qi and Qing had also laid siege to the city.

But in the end, they had no choice but to withdraw.

After that, Dongyi City was recognized by all the forces in the world and existed independently from then on.

They are no longer surprised by the current situation.

I feel that it will be just like what happened many years ago, where the army will eventually have no choice but to withdraw.

but……

They think too much!

Outside Dongyi City.

Li Chengqian looked at the map in front of him.

Si Gu Jian had been hiding in his hole, and no one knew what he was thinking.

confidence?

Or underestimate the enemy?

"He doesn't think that he is much more powerful than Ku He, right?" Fan Xian said with a smile.

Chunmei and Wuzhu both came on this expedition to Dongyi City.

It’s also two to one.

Si Gu Jian had no chance of winning at all.

However, he still did not move.

It seems that he intends to hide and not come out.

"What should we do now?" Fan Xian spread his hands.

Li Chengqian looked at Qiu Zhu and said, "Pass my order. Starting today, the No. 1 Warehouse in the World will cut off the water, food, and vegetables from Dongyi City.

The inner treasury also cut off all trade with Dongyi City."

"Yes!"

Dongyi City seems independent, but it is far from being self-sufficient.

Cut off all its connections with the outside world, and it won't be long before the city collapses.

Li Chengqian was not in a hurry to capture the city.

At the same time, they were preparing to capture Dongyi City.

On the other hand, he was also waiting for Qingguo's attitude.

Especially the attitude of that old man Emperor Qing.

He has always felt that Emperor Qing seemed to have other plans.

But I can't see his plan clearly.

Now may be an opportunity to take a peek.

Time passes day by day.

Dongyi City is almost unable to hold on.

The city was gradually falling into chaos.

Times are hard.

The food was almost gone, and the water supply was cut off. If the situation continued like this, Dongyi City would collapse without a fight.

There is still no news from Qing Kingdom.

"What on earth is this old man thinking..."

Li Chengqian frowned slightly.

He was integrating the north and the south, and now he was attacking Dongyi City, but Emperor Qing had no reaction.

It doesn't make sense to some extent.

Another point is that Si Gu Jian has never shown up.

This is also very strange.

"Isn't he in the city?" Qiu Zhu said.

"It's possible." Li Chengqian nodded.

After pondering for a moment, he finally decided to attack the city tonight.

Dawn is when people are most relaxed.

This is the most appropriate time to attack the city.

The plan went very smoothly.

There was almost no pressure in breaking the city.

Qiu Zhu led a special forces team, sneaked into the city and launched a surprise attack, opening the city gates.

The army entered the city.

Dongyi City has no army, only a defense force, which is small in number.

Those ninth-rank masters are a bit tricky.

However, they were divided and surrounded by the butcher army and were defeated one by one.

In this battle, many members of the Ren Tu Army were injured, but there were no casualties.

In just half a day, they successfully captured Dongyi City.

Many people in the city were already dizzy with hunger. If Li Chengqian didn't attack the city again, they would all raise the white flag.

Some exceptional people chose to rise up in resistance.

Li Qiuzhu ordered to give these people a chance to be heroes.

The end of a hero is always death.

Li Chengqian handed over all the affairs in the city to Qiuzhu.

What he was more curious about now was where Si Gu Jian, the scapegoat, had gone.

It’s not in the city!

This is not good news.

When a great master disappears and his whereabouts are unknown, it is a huge hidden danger.

"Where will he go?"

Li Chengqian pondered and looked at Shen Yiren.

She also came to attack Dongyi City this time.

The two looked at each other, and then were shocked, and said in unison:
"Northern Qi Dynasty!"

"Somebody come!"

Li Chengqian ordered that the Northern Qi Imperial Palace must strengthen its defenses.

Also, move the bitter lotus immediately.

If Si Gu Jian leaves at this time, there is a high possibility that he will sneak into Northern Qi.

Two possibilities.

First, assassinate the little emperor.

Second, rescue Ku He.

When Chunmei and Wuzhu join forces, no one in the world can defeat them.

Si Gu Jian is naturally not stupid.

So, he needs help.

The biggest possibility, and the best choice, is Ku He.

It is very likely that he went to look for Ku He.

*

*

Northern Qi Dynasty.

The place where Ku He went into seclusion.

All the soldiers guarding this place have been killed.

A figure slowly walked into the Water Curtain Cave.

The long sword in his hand had not even been unsheathed.

"You finally came..."

Ku He opened his eyes.

Si Gu Jian sat down in front of him.

Looking at the warm teacup in front of me.

"You knew I was coming?" Si Gu Jian subconsciously grasped his sword.

But there was indeed no one around.

"I don't know." Ku He shook his head, picked up the tea and took a sip carefully.

“I know that your martial arts are special. Although your martial arts skills have been abolished, if you have the help of a great master, you can achieve nirvana and recover as before.

I will help you return to the top, and you will help me kill the young Northern Qi emperor Li Chengqian. How about that? "

Ku He seemed to be thinking.

After a long time, he finished the tea in the cup and nodded.

Poured another glass.

Si Gu Jian picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"Let's start, don't waste time." Si Gu Jian stood up.

However, he suddenly frowned and tightened his grip on the sword.

A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Ku He's mouth, but he had a smile on his face.

"You're crazy!" Si Gu Jian frowned, also puzzled.

"Although I do not support the integration of the North and the South, this is indeed the only best choice for Northern Qi now." Ku He said with difficulty.

"But why do you want to die?"

"I'll force you." Ku He said with a smile.
