Tang Yin did not directly answer Yu Jun's question, but straightforwardly asked: "Does Mr. Yu Jun think that Xibai City can withstand the attack of my Tianyuan Army?"

Yu Jun's mind raced, considering what he meant by those words, he ambiguously said: "The battle situation is changing rapidly, no one dares to make accurate guesses!"

Tang Yin nodded his head, with both of his hands behind his back, he laughed: "What Mr. Yu Jun says makes sense, but based on the difference in strength between the two of us, I can still determine that they are close to ten. Right now, the defending army of Xibai City is less than fifty thousand, and just relying on your own strength will not be enough to defend the city, pulling the citizens in as reinforcements is not a solution, it will only increase the number of casualties, and in the end, the Xibai City will still fall, but at that time, the number of commoners in the city will probably not be much. "

Hearing that, Yu Jun's face slightly changed, his head also drooped down, as he remained silent. What Tang Yin had said was the same as what he thought in his heart. He had initially advocated surrender, but Geng Qiang did not accept his suggestion.

In fact, Tang Yin did not know the exact number of soldiers defending the Xibai City, but based on the memories of the warriors whom he sucked away, he could roughly deduce what the numbers were.

Seeing Yu Jun's reaction, Tang Yin secretly nodded his head. Although this Yu Jun was a subordinate of Geng Qiang, they did not wear the same pants, so he should make good use of this person.

Thinking about that, he laughed lightly, and continued to speak, "You and I are both men of the wind, the reason for our battle is different political opinions, and each of us has our own master, if we drag the citizens into it, no matter who wins in the end, it will affect the entire nation's strength, and I think Mr. Yu Jun would also not want to see the Xibai City turned into a pile of rubble after the war, right?! Geng Qiang was confused and confused, not only did Mr. Yu Jun's advice not enter his ears, he even called him an official, what are you trying to support him for? "

These words reached Yu Jun's heart. He was short-sighted, yet overjoyed at the same time, narrow-minded and conceited. If defending against Tianyuan Army went smoothly, when Geng Qiang was happy, not only would he not cure his own sins, he might even return to his original position. But if resisting does not work, then it would truly be difficult to protect his own life.

Now that Tang Yin had appeared in the city, he knew very well their situation, and even knew the matters of him being dismissed. Under the situation where he was so familiar with his side, how could he not win against his Tianyuan Army? Thinking of this, he could not help but sigh.

Tang Yin's intuition was as sharp as a wild beast's, any minute changes on Yu Jun's face could not escape his eyes. Seeing that his own words had caused his heart to waver, Tang Yin emphasized his tone as he said seriously: "If Mr. Yu Jun is willing to rely on me and help me take down the Xibai City, I will place more importance on you than Geng Qiang. Furthermore, with this, I will be able to save hundreds of thousands of citizens from the calamity within the Xibai City.

Yu Jun looked at Tang Yin who was confidently speaking with poise and confidence, and was secretly impressed in his heart. He was also a County Head, but Tang Yin was far stronger than him, and just by being willing to think for the sake of the common people, Geng Qiang could never compare to him. He shook his head and laughed bitterly, "Master Tang thinks too highly of me, and I am unable to express my gratitude. However, I have already been dismissed, and have no power or power.

"Ha ha!" Tang Yin laughed and said: "Mister, you are being too modest! Even though you have been fired, your prestige still remains. With a wave of your arms, I believe that quite a few of your warriors will respond as well! " His words were just a test, he was not sure if Yu Jun could rope in the high ranking officers by Geng Qiang's side.

"This …" Hearing that, Yu Jun frowned, and revealed a thoughtful expression. After a long while, Fang You said: "General Du Qing and I have a good relationship, as for the others, I am really not confident."

The general guarding the Western City? Tang Yin's eyes immediately lit up, his mind raced, and after thinking for a moment, he asked: Mr. Yu Jun, could you pull General Du over?

Yu Jun laughed bitterly: "I don't know if it was a success or not, but I can give it a try!"

"Alright!" Tang Yin nodded his head, and said: "If this matter is successful, Mr. Yu Jun will have rendered great service!"

"Master Tang is too serious." Yu Jun's frown did not relax, rather it deepened. He said: "The reason I am willing to help Master Tang is not because I, Yu Jun, am a coward that fears death and admires vanity. It is because I do not want to see the hundreds of thousands of citizens in the city be affected by the army and die a violent death. I hope that after obtaining the Xibai City, the Master Tang will treat the people well.

Tang Yin nodded and said: "Mr. Yu Jun, please speak!"

Yu Jun lowered his head, thought for a while, and said softly: "I hope that when Master Tang is successful, he will be able to give Master Geng a chance to live, and this is my only condition."

Oh? Tang Yin took a deep breath, looked at Yu Jun, and fell silent. From what he could tell, although Yu Jun was just an official, he had a lot of feelings for him. He could be considered to be a loyal person, but unfortunately, his feelings were used in the wrong place. Tang Yin thought for a while, then laughed: "Alright, I can promise you this, after the battle I will definitely not kill Geng Qiang!"

Right now, his Tianyuan Army had been unable to take down any Xibai City for a long time, his troops had suffered heavy losses, and his food was urgent. Tang Yin was burning with anxiety, no matter what conditions he had, he would agree to them all at this time.

Receiving Tang Yin's promise, Yu Jun was relieved. He cupped his hands and said: "This one thanks Master Tang first!"

"Sir is too polite!" Tang Yin laughed and said.

If Yu Jun was currently standing behind Tang Yin, he would definitely be so scared that he would faint. While Tang Yin was speaking with him, both of his hands had been behind his back the entire time. Both of his hands had already become long and thin swords with a faint Fire of Darkness attached to them, so as long as Yu Jun had any hesitation or rejection towards his persuasion, he would immediately kill him to silence him.

Fortunately, things were progressing smoothly, so Yu Jun was not a brainless, stubborn old fogey.

Actually, Tang Yin came to find Yu Jun at a perfect time, just in time to find out that Yu Jun had been excluded, and had been rejected. Then, it would be natural for Tang Yin to rope him in to stand by his side.

Du Qing had a good relationship with Du Qing, who was guarding the Western City, Du Qing was a martial general, and also a boorish person. His four limbs were more developed than his brain, and he admired Yu Jun's intelligence, so whenever he met with something important yet uncertain, he would take the initiative to seek Yu Jun for advice.

Just like Yu Jun, Du Qing was also opposed to Geng Qiang pulling the citizens into the city defense system. It was just that the current Geng Qiang simply could not listen to the advice of others.

On that day, the Tianyuan Army launched another fierce attack against the Xibai City as usual, and the focus of the attack was still on the North of City side.

Right now, Tang Yin's true body was in the North of City, and was already one of the strong men participating in the defense of the city. Standing at an opposite angle to his own army, he could more clearly feel how ferocious the attack of his own army was, as well as the difficulty in defending against the Xibai City. The defending troops above the city were releasing arrows, and the formations of the Tianyuan Army were even fiercer, wave after wave, with almost no gaps between them.

Not only did they have to endure the dense rain of arrows fired by the Heavenly Abyss Army, they also had to use all of their large scale siege weapons. From time to time, huge boulders would fly over their heads, and the wooden stakes from the Crossbow would shoot out thousands of holes, making it impossible for them to dodge in the back. "The city walls trembled back and forth with the sound of violent collisions. In order to prevent them from breaking the city gates, the defenders and civilians on top of the city walls had no choice but to brace themselves and step forward to smash the rolling logs and rocks down. However, at the same time they threw away the logs and stones, they were shot down like hedgehogs.

The corpses of Peng Army and the commoners piled up together into a small mountain, which could be used as a battlements. It could be seen how intense the battle was, even at the top of the city walls, the losses of the attacking Tianyuan Army outside the city was even greater, and the corpses below the city walls had long been strewn all over the ground.

Tang Yin, who was mixed in between the Peng Army and commoners, would obviously not kill his own troops. He pretended to be timid and afraid of death and hid between the stairs that led from the top of the city to the bottom of the city, while secretly observing the strength of his Peng Army.

Wearing spirit armor and holding spirit weapons could be seen everywhere. Tang Yin felt that even if he were to rush up the city walls at his peak condition, it would still be difficult to obtain an advantage.

Just as he was calculating silently, a General of Peng Country rushed over and shouted loudly: "What are you all doing hiding here? All of you, scram back to the city! "

Tang Yin feigned cowardice and hid in the middle of the stairs. There were also a lot of commoners who were truly cowardly and afraid of death on the left and right of him.

While the General of Peng Country was shouting, she also raised the Spiritual Knife in her hand and said sternly: "Those who disobey the order, behead! If you don't go up, I'll chop off your heads! "

As the General of Peng Country lifted the Spiritual Knife, the citizens were so scared that their faces changed. They did not dare to hide near the stairs again.

Tang Yin was helpless, he could only follow the commoners back to the city. As soon as he got up, a group of Arrow Rain flew towards him. Tang Yin's reaction was extremely fast, he immediately threw himself down and rolled out, and the surrounding citizens were not as nimble as him, as they were hit by the Arrow Rain. In an instant, dozens of people were shot in the chest by the Arrow Rain, falling to the ground violently.

Seeing the body that was so close to him, Tang Yin also broke out in a cold sweat, luckily he had been able to dodge in time, otherwise, he would have died foolishly under the arrows of the two brothers. It seemed like he would have to spread the news tonight, telling the soldiers on his side to stop attacking the North City, otherwise, he would not even be able to preserve his life.

After a full day of fierce fighting, the garrison troops and commoners finally managed to block the Tianyuan Army again. After a single battle, the total number of people defending the city was reduced by another thirty percent.
