Wu Dayu obviously did not think that the people of the Fengjue Country would come so quickly. His previous arrangement was only to be prepared for anything, and to his surprise, there were several hundred thousand troops in the city. No matter what, they would be able to hold on for a period of time.
However, it was fortunate that Wu Dayu had made the arrangements in advance, allowing the citizens of the city to make preparations in advance, which allowed them to escape at the first possible moment. Only, it would be hard on Liu Feng and the rest.
In order to not attract attention, Liu Feng and the others were dressed up. They did not wear armor or official's clothing, they only wore ordinary clothes, and were no different from normal people.
Liu Feng's plan was to first bring his people and hide near the east gate. When the Fengjue Country's men entered from the west gate, he immediately used the chaos within the city to leave the city, and escape far away. In any case, he had already realized, this place would become a hell tonight, and the Great Lu Dynasty's army would suffer a crushing defeat here, and the armies within the city would all flee from this place.
Thus, after the incident, all he had to do was to say that he had seen the chaos in the city, and if the city had fallen, he would have been forced to flee with the army. As long as the others did not know that he had escaped in advance, then that would have been fine.
Only, although Liu Feng's plan was good, it still could not change fast enough, because Wu Dayu had made the arrangements in advance, as a result, the east gate was already crowded with people, and when Liu Feng arrived, he realized that the situation was bad. Even though the sky was filled with people, he did not squeeze out, and, because he did not have the official uniform and weapon on him, the people around him did not know their identities.
Of course, Wu Dayu did not know that the west gate would be breached, so the citizens of the city had to flee to several of the gates at the same time. It was only because he knew that the west gate was breached, that was why the number of citizens at the east gate continued to increase.
He struggled in the sea of people for a long time, but was still unable to escape. He did not dare reveal his identity, as he was afraid that he would be ganged up on. After all, at this critical moment, if the general of the defending army took the lead and ran away, it would definitely incur the wrath of the masses. Therefore, he could only bring his men and silently struggle in the crowd.
It was just that, Liu Feng did not expect to meet Li Yuangu here, however, after thinking about it, he came to a conclusion. Evidently, Li Yuangu had also heard about the news of the city s destruction, and did not have the guts to stay behind to bring his people to retaliate. Thus, he brought his men and escaped, and the route he chose, without any mishap, was to the east gate which was the furthest from the west gate.
Liu Feng scoffed in his heart at Li Yuangu's actions, he did not expect the other party to not even defend, and actually give up, just like that. The purpose of their cooperation with the Fengjue Country in entering the city this time, was not to target Li Yuangu, but to make him suffer a crushing defeat, and completely lose the trust he had with the Emperor.
After all, Li Yuangu could be considered as a big enemy of Wu Yan. Wu Yan naturally wanted to borrow the help of the people from the Fengjue Country to get rid of Li Yuangu, and if they couldn't kill him, they would make him lose the trust of the Emperor, and even make him commit a heinous crime.
When he saw Li Yuangu and the situation around him, a thought suddenly popped into Liu Feng's mind.
If he could kill Li Yuangu here, Wu Yan would presumably be satisfied, it was just that Li Yuangu was as timid as a mouse, he had already escaped the moment the people from Fengjue Country entered the city, it seemed like it would be difficult to kill Li Yuangu with the help of the people from Fengjue Country.
However, Liu Feng did not want to give up, especially in this situation. To him, this was an opportunity.
At the moment, because of the actions of Li Yuangu's personal guards and the inability of the citizens in the city to defend the city, the relationship between the two sides was extremely tense. Although the people around did not dare to do anything due to Li Yuangu's status as a soldier, the anger in their hearts did not decrease at all, and as long as there was a fuse, Liu Feng believed that a chaotic battle would definitely break out between the two sides.
Just that, Li Yuangu and the rest clearly understood this point, so they wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, and did not dare to anger the people around, for fear of any accidents happening, and although the people around were angry at this time, in a situation where no one was leading, it was still very difficult to get them to make a move against the soldiers, since, being caught was akin to getting beheaded.
Therefore, this fuse wasn't that easy to appear. However, Liu Feng felt that he could license a fuse to appear.
Both sides' nerves were in a state of turmoil. Just a small flame was enough to set both sides on fire.
Thinking about that, Liu Feng quietly whispered a few words to the trusted aide beside him, but the trusted aide nodded towards Liu Feng, and then pushed his way through the crowd and headed towards Li Yuangu and the rest.
Liu Feng and the rest were actually not far from Li Yuangu and the others, it was just that Li Yuangu had his head lowered as he hurried on his way, and was not in the mood to look at his surroundings. As a result, he did not realize that Liu Feng and the rest were wearing clothes that were common to the commoners.
Because they were very close to each other, Liu Feng's trusted aides quickly squeezed to the edge of the small road that Li Yuangu and the others were passing through. After that, that person saw a person in front of him and fiercely pushed his way forward.
The person standing in front of Liu Feng's trusted aide evidently did not expect that someone would push him hard from the back, so he was not prepared in the slightest. Furthermore, that trusted aide had a lot of strength, so that person's body could not help but stagger forward a few steps.
And in these few steps, something went wrong.
Initially, the personal guards around Li Yuangu were afraid that the surrounding people would take action, thus, they did not put away their weapons. Instead, they remained on their guard, and it was also to threaten the surrounding people, so that they would not dare to act rashly.
But now, after the ordinary citizen was pushed aside by Liu Feng's trusted aides, he rushed forward and coincidentally bumped into one of Li Yuangu's bodyguards' long spear. Because Liu Feng had used a lot of strength to listen, that person's body was directly pierced through by Li Yuangu's personal guard's long spear.
The janissary did not expect that the people in the surroundings would slam into his spear, so he was not prepared at all. By the time he realized that he wanted to put down his spear, it was already too late. The spear had already pierced through the body of the people rushing towards him.
The janissary was surprised by the situation. He had not expected it to happen, but he stopped thinking about it. It was just the death of a commoner. It was no big deal.
It was obvious that he did not realize the seriousness of the situation.
The sound made a "pu ci" sound that pierced their bodies, similarly, it made the surrounding citizens startled. They did not see Liu Feng personally push the man away, but saw Li Yuangu's spear pierce through the body of one of the soldiers, and the man's blood continued to flow out, stimulating everyone's nerves.
"Oh no, soldiers are killing people!" At this time, Liu Feng's trusted aide suddenly shouted loudly.
It was precisely this sentence that ignited the anger in the surrounding people. That nerve that had been jumping about the entire time also broke with a "kacha" sound at this moment.2
"The soldiers kill!" These soldiers are killing people! "
"Fight them to the death!" These beasts can't beat the people of the Fengjue Country, so they only know how to bully us! "
"The soldiers are making their move, these beasts are making their move!"
The surrounding people suddenly shouted in anger. The surrounding situation was as if a pot of boiling water had suddenly boiled up.
Of course, there were also Liu Feng's trusted aide who was trying to fan the flames.
Originally, these citizens were very angry at these soldiers, because of their incompetence, they were forced to leave their homes, but now, these soldiers, unexpectedly bullied them, the officers could not handle the soldiers of the Fengjue Country, and bullying them was fine, but this was tolerated.
However, they did not expect these soldiers to be so arrogant. It was one thing if they let them go, but now they were actually going to kill because they were blocking their way?
Thus, the atmosphere among the citizens became even more lively.
On the other side, Liu Feng's trusted aides, while fanning the flames, had also secretly attacked Li Yuangu's personal guards. Of course, he did not use a weapon, but rather used a stone to smash his opponent.
They didn't even know what had happened, but of course, after seeing that dead person, they were also cursing in their hearts at that evil soldier. They did not see the situation just now, and just like the others, thought that the soldier had killed that citizen, since, as long as his brain wasn't broken, those citizens would obviously not take the initiative to provoke them.
Of course, the janissary also felt wronged. He really didn't do anything, he really did not do it. He didn't know why he did it.
"It wasn't me. It was him. He bumped into it himself." The janissary explained.
However, no one believed his words, not even his companions.
