Half a day later.
Outside the city gate of Xiang County, several pavilions had already been built.
They were all made from the heads of the Turks!
At the top of every Jing Temple, there was a big flag with the word "Li Yi" on it!
On the city wall.
"General Li, where are you going next?”
County Magistrate Yu rubbed his hands and asked.
Li Yi glanced at Jing Guan below and turned to the county magistrate and the people behind him.
"After this matter is settled, this general will immediately set off to assist the other counties of Youzhou.”
He stood up straight and said in a high-pitched voice,
"The Turks are still massacring the people of the Great Tang. Li Yi can't sit idly by and do nothing.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the commoners behind Magistrate Yu began to make a ruckus.
A middle-aged woman in her forties said,
"General Li, I'm willing to kill the Turks with you!”
She was the closest. When Li Yi heard this, he could not help but be stunned.
What was the meaning of this?
The commoners wanted to join him in killing the enemy?
Following that, the cheers of the people behind him also entered Li Yi's ears.
Almost all the old, weak, women, and children were sending him a message.
They were going to join Li Yi and the three thousand cavalry to kill the Turks!
They wanted revenge!
County Magistrate Yu also cupped his hands at Li Yi and said,
"General Li Yi, you heard it. The people want to kill the enemy with you.”
Li Yi pondered for a moment and then asked,
"I remember you said that there are about five thousand people in the city, right?”
Magistrate Yu nodded and said,"
"Now it seems that the five thousand people want to go to war with the general.”
Li Yi frowned and said,
"If that's the case, then there's no one in the city!”
Xiaowei Hu interjected,
"So what if there's no one? The Turks outside the city have already been killed by the general. Who would still dare to plunder Xiang County?”
Li Yi nodded.
That was the truth.
Li Yi looked behind the county magistrate. The city wall was filled with people.
Some of them were only in their teens and were not even as tall as a horse.
Some of them were already middle-aged and were no longer young and strong.
Most of them were women. Although they weren't as strong as men, they often worked and had great strength. They were all strong women.
These people gathered together.
They no longer had any worries.
Almost all of his family members had died in this tragic battle!
In their hearts, Li Yi's existence represented the stability of Youzhou.
Three years ago, Li Yi was still guarding the border of Youzhou. When he was managing this place, they were all under Li Yi's rule.
Under Li Yi's policies, the people of Youzhou were even richer than those in Guanzhong!
There were no enemies pillaging them, and they could eat and wear warm clothes.
After Li Yi left, all the citizens of Youzhou missed him!
When the commoners thought of this, they could not help but raise their arms and shout,
"General Li, we believe you!"
"Yes! If we follow you, we will definitely be able to kill all the Turks and live a good life!”
"Kill the Turks!"
“……”
All kinds of voices rang out.
Li Yi's gaze was very complicated.
These people were originally under his jurisdiction. Of course, he knew that the people of Youzhou had an indescribable trust in him.
County Magistrate Yu cupped his hands again and said,"
"This humble official implores General Li to lead them into battle, kill the Turks, and return Youzhou to peace!”
After saying that, he bowed deeply to Li Yi.
After a long while, Li Yi let out a long sigh.
"Alright, I promise you!”
Powerful and resounding!
Upon hearing Li Yi's words, the Xiang County citizens on the city wall were stunned for a moment before they began to cheer!
They had a chance to fight, a chance to kill the Turks, a chance to take revenge!!!
A child rushed in front of Li Yi.
He was only about ten years old and only reached Li Yi's waist.
But at this moment, the child's face was covered in blood, and his clothes were also stained with blood.
He kowtowed deeply to Li Yi and stood up.
He tore off a piece of his white inner clothes with a ripping sound!
This white cloth was wrapped around his head.
"Father, Mother, I'm going to fulfill my filial piety for you!”
After saying that, he picked up a long knife from the ground and carried it on his shoulder.
His eyes, which should have been childlike, were filled with the scarlet of revenge!
A white turban wrapped around his head means that he is wearing a funeral belt.
Immediately after, the countless commoners behind the child also fell silent.
He tore off his white inner clothes.
Wrapped around his head!
5,000 citizens were here to kill the enemy for their loved ones!
……
Two hours later.
Over 5,000 citizens of Xiang County, regardless of gender or age, stood on the city walls.
Their clothes might be of different colors, and they might be of different heights and sizes.
However, their faces were burning with the same flames of war!
It was the same desire to kill the Turks!
Li Yi stood on the watchtower at the highest point of the city wall.
He was holding the spear that had killed countless Turks!
"Xiang County citizens!"
"Follow me, Li Yi, to kill the Turks and take back our land and wealth!”
The commoners also raised their arms and shouted,
"Kill the Turks! Take it back!"
"Kill the Turks! Take it back!"
"Kill the Turks! Take it back!"
