258 The Eve of the City

258 The eve of the city

That night, the moon was hanging high, the stars were dotted, and the sound of insects echoed in the fields. Although the sky and the earth were pitch black, the lights were brightly lit in Duantian City at this time. Today, the soldiers of Duantian City did not train as scheduled, because today is the third day of Duantian's relocation to the city. As long as tonight, they can leave this place of right and wrong, which surprised the people in Duantian City, because they all knew that the place they were moving to this time was a wealthy place. When they arrived there, they did not have to stay at home, and they had land to plant.

This is also a disadvantage of moving the city. The city only moves everything inside the city wall, but outside the city wall is not included. Because in ancient times, the city was built according to Feng Shui principles, and it was generally built by mountains and water. The water source in the city is only for defense, fire extinguishing, and people and animals. The layout of the city must also be based on the five elements and four phases. Therefore, only fertile fields outside the city are irrigation, because only in this way can the operation be convenient. After all, there were no water pumps in ancient times. Although the heroine of the Three Kingdoms was a game, it also had to follow the ancient routines. Therefore, once the city was moved, all fertile fields would be cheaper. This is also the reason why cities generally do not move randomly.

"How long will it take for our Duantian City to move away?" Duan Tian asked with a frown in the city lord's mansion.

"There are five hours left!" Liu Bei looked helpless when he heard this, because this was the twelfth time Duan Tian asked in this hour...

"Is there five hours left? This time is really slow!" Duan Tian said with a headache after rubbing his temple. Xiao Qiao, who was standing beside him, immediately walked up and walked behind Duan Tian. Her jade hand gently pressed Duan Tian's temple and gently kneaded her.

"This is just because you are too worried, lord!" Although Liu Bei was also worried, she still comforted her.

It seemed that something suddenly came to mind, Duan Tian asked casually, "By the way, how are the recent reactions of those people in the city?"

"It's normal. Except for some riots at the beginning, it has now subsided; because the residents here are all the old people in our Duantian City, they have a strong sense of belonging to us. In addition, they also know that moving this land of right and wrong is only beneficial for them, so they are no longer here."

"Where is the barracks?"

"Those who lead the way have been secretly monitored by us, and all the people associated with them have been blacklisted by us. There are also some who are not sure whether they are spies hidden in our Duantian City in the Yellow Turban City, but I have also secretly sent someone to monitor them."

"I'm idle, I'm idle. Since that's the case, I'll execute him directly!" As if I suddenly thought of something, Duan Tian said lightly: "We are not the government. As long as we doubt them, it's enough for them to go."

Duan Tian's voice was a little chilled. After hearing his words, even Liu Bei was slightly stunned, and Erqiao behind him showed a strong look of disbelief on his face.

"Be kind to the enemy means cruelty to ourselves. Once we have problems with them, we may have to take the lives of everyone in the entire Duantian City. I can't bet, so even if you think I am cruel, I will do the same."

"Yes! Feiyu knows, I won't be a woman anymore!" A look of firmness flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and she said directly: "Then I'll go down first. It's getting late. If the lord is fine, go and rest first!"

"Well, don't worry about me. Now is an important moment in our Duantian City. How could I sleep?" Duan Tian couldn't help but have a headache after signaling Liu Bei to retreat. He also knew that tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people might die after the order was issued. Even half of these people may be innocent, but he did not regret it. It was not that he thought they were a bunch of data, but because as he said, he couldn't afford to gamble.

With his head raised, Duan Tian slowly closed his eyes. Xiao Qiao's pretty face behind him was covered with a layer of red glow, because Duan Tian's head was just pillowing between her proud peaks.

I don’t know that Duan Tian is taking advantage of it sincerity, but he still hasn’t reacted. He said in a dream: “Do you think I’m very cold-blooded and cruel?”

"I believe my brother does this for the sake of the city!" Xiao Qiao said firmly.

"Haha, where is Da Qiao?"

"I think so too, but is it really a problem to kill them all? These people will definitely have friends in the remaining military camps. If we do this, will there be no problem?"

"Hmm?" Duan Tian was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Da Qiao to say such words. Open his eyes. Duan Tian couldn't help but look at Da Qiao with a strange look.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Da Qiao said shyly when Duan Tian looked at it.

"No, you said it right, but you brought me a big shot!" Duan Tian said coldly: "Their relatives, brothers or very good friends will also deal with it..."

…………

"Everyone is ready. Our army has just arrived today. Because we have already let them rest on the road, they all have complete combat power at this time. Because they have no contact with the old army at all, their morale is still at its peak. So today we want to give this Duantian City a big lesson and let him know the price of rejecting us." Yuan Shao said with murderous aura in the camp where the princes of the Seventeen City were located.

"Everything depends on the leader!" The princes agreed loudly. Although Yuan Shu was a little dissatisfied with Yuan Shao as the leader, she also said at this time, because not only did she hate Duan Tian, ​​but also because Yuan Shao also let her take charge of the supplies in the seventeen cities at this time.

Although this is just a "junket chief", as the saying goes, county officials are worse than to be in charge. As a person who controls the lifeline of this army, it is a very powerful job, just like the security guard in front of the chairman's door. Although they do not have any official positions, even those officials dare not underestimate him. The same is true for the words of the third-rank official in front of the prime minister.

"Okay, then I'll arrange the matter for the expedition now. This time we are going to focus on the new army. I believe everyone has already told our generals about the methods of dealing with this magic cannon. So even if we can't take down Tianmeng Valley in one fell swoop this time, we must not dare to be too arrogant."

…………

"Have Yuan Shao and the others been dispatched?" Dong Zhuo said lazily in his right hand in his face.

"Yes, they just took a short rest after the new army arrived and were dispatched." Li Ru couldn't help but show a look of mocking on his face when he heard this, and he didn't know what she was mocking.

"Then how many people do you think they will lose this time?" A faint smile appeared on his face, but Dong Zhuo could see what she was mocking, because she also despised these people.

A group of stupid women who were blinded by interests and anger. Although the princes of the seventeen cities had nearly 30 million new recruits at this time, Dong Zhuo was not optimistic about them because she directly asked how much the loss was, not the outcome.

"If Duantian City didn't bring out any strange things, it wouldn't be more than five million. After all, the men of the princes of these seventeen cities were not vegetarians, and they had 33 million troops. Even if the Tianmeng Mountains were not very high, the number of people was there. Moreover, the soldiers in Duantian City were all new recruits, so although they had some powerful generals and equipment, they could not defeat these people in one fell swoop."

As a strategist, Li Ru has a demeanor of strategizing. Although the battle has not started yet, she is very confident about the result of her guess.

The so-called predictive future is based on various known deductions, so fortune telling may sometimes be calculated accurately, but sometimes it is not reliable at all. Although Li Ru is not a fortune teller, he took into account the number of people and various advantages of both sides and his own unique calculation method and had a very high success rate.

It is precisely because of her existence that Dong Zhuo can win every battle. If it weren't for the power of the magic cannons in Duantian City, the result of their battle with Duantian City would be no exception.

"Is it only five million?" Dong Zhuo couldn't help but look helpless on his face when he heard this. Obviously, she was not very satisfied with this result, and she didn't know whether she was dissatisfied because she saw that her enemies had lost too little or for some other reason.

"By the way, lord, are we really not going? Or are we going to take advantage of the left-handed fisherman when both of them were both defeated?"

On the other side of Dong Zhuo, Hua Xiong asked curiously.

"No, I really don't plan to take action this time, and Duan Tian is not our enemy. I may send troops to help him when necessary, after all, he is my Dong Zhuo's man!"

"Lord, you won't really be moved by him, are you?" Dai brows frowned slightly, and Li Ru said strangely. In the entire Xiliang Empire, she is probably the only one who dares to ask Dong Zhuo this except Lu Bu.

"Your lord, I am already thirty this year!" A bright look appeared on his face. Dong Zhuo did not answer Li Ru's words, but said with a complicated expression.

"The lord should have found a man, but this time you not only did not retaliate, but also helped each other. Will he be too excited? Will he think that you can't live without him and make other people in the kingdom have such thoughts?" Although the words were not very pleasant, Li Ru still said it.

"Don't worry, I know it!" Li Ru's pretty face turned red, but then Dong Zhuo said seriously: "Didn't I send troops now? Maybe even if we really want to send troops, we can't find any opportunity?"
