"Yang, General Yang."

With Yang Ye's words, some cold sweat suddenly appeared on Zhao Duwei's forehead. Obviously, Yang Ye's words really made him feel a little overreacted.

"Follow me to go to a secluded place, where there are many people in the end."

Looking at the expression of Zhao Duwei, Yang Ye's mouth raised slightly, and then said this in an understatement and then hooked his hand at Zhao Duwei, turned around and walked out of the city.

Zhao Duwei also swallowed his saliva, and looked back at the city gate with some concern. He saw that the soldiers guarding the city at the city gate were still patrolling the people entering and leaving the city like nothing happened. Zhao Duwei then breathed a long sigh, thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and followed Yang Ye.

After a while, Zhao Duwei was taken to a forest outside the city by Yang Ye.

"It's quite quiet here. Tell me, why do you want to hide your cultivation? Don't be foolish with me. I'm not blind. These right and wrong can still be distinguished."

Yang Ye looked at Zhao Duwei, smiled at him slightly, and a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Duwei.

To be honest, Yang Ye is indeed quite curious about why Zhao Duwei deliberately concealed his cultivation over the years, because relying on Zhao Duwei's first-class cultivation, he could have been promoted to the position of Xiangyang Duwei. Please, Xiangyang City is not a city with heavy martial arts habits. Xiangyang City has a higher literary atmosphere. Compared with literature, most of the martial artists in Xiangyang City are unable to reach the stage and have entered the realm of not entering the level of cultivator throughout their lives. At this time, Zhao Duwei, who was young and middle-aged, deliberately concealed his cultivation over the years. If nothing happened, Yang Ye would not believe it.

Zhao Duwei was indeed in his heart, but after meeting Yang Ye's eyes, Yang Ye's words came from his ears. Zhao Duwei finally hesitated for a long time, and could only sigh, raised his head with a frustrated expression and looked at Yang Ye again, and said to him.

"In fact, hiding cultivation is not my wish, but the idea of ​​Lord Taishou."

After saying this, Zhao Duwei saw the puzzled look flashing in Yang Ye's eyes. He shook his head and simply explained to Yang Ye.

As early as four or five years ago, Zhao Duwei was already a first-class monk. Just two days after he broke through, he encountered the package of things from the Jinyiwei. Then he was inexplicably arrested and tortured. After he was released by the lieutenant Wang, Pan Mei also summoned Zhao Duwei once.

During that conversation, Pan Mei said in one sentence that Zhao Duwei had broken through his cultivation level. Then, Pan Mei thought for a while and warned Zhao Duwei to conceal his cultivation level.

Although Pan Mei did not give Zhao Duwei a reasonable explanation in the end, Zhao Duwei did what Pan Mei warned. Not only did he sit in a good position with peace of mind, but he was also hiding his cultivation as Pan Mei warned.

As for why such an explanation was made, Zhao Duwei didn't understand it from beginning to end, because to be honest, what can he hide as a first-class monk?

Although his cultivation level is still a good strength in Xiangyang City.

Basically, the combat power that had previously been in the Xiangyang City Army was the lieutenant.

After excluding the lieutenant, most of the backbone of the army was basically just some eight-line monks. First-class monks like Zhao Duwei can be regarded as one of the top three members of the Xiangyang defenders.

If we look at it from this point of view, there would be some reason why Pan Mei asked Zhao Duwei to conceal his cultivation. After all, now, wouldn’t the lieutenant Wang Zhi almost start a rebellion?

"Sure enough, it was that guy's idea."

After hearing this, Yang Ye said quietly, and after thinking about it, only Pan Mei could do such a thing.

That guy Wang Mei lost without any worries. Wang Mei really underestimated Pan Mei. She thought that she had lived a peaceful life for more than ten years. Has Pan Mei really become a dog guarding Nanli's house and guarding the hospital?

No, from the beginning to now, Pan Mei has always been the lion, but in the past ten years, this lion has just been taking a nap.

The momentary dozing caused some bad thoughts to the wild dog like Wang Fu, but he thought he was self-righteous and planned for a long time, but in the end, he lost everything.

Yang Ye shook his head slightly. If this seems to be the case, even if he did not appear outside the city in time to rescue the scholar half a month ago, this Zhao Duwei probably had some means that he had not used it?

Although there is still a big gap between the first-class monk and that guy Wang Zhi, after using his efforts, I believe that Zhao Duwei has the ability to send the scholar back to Xiangyang City safely.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk, Pan Mei, all of this is in your calculations.

But even if Yang Ye figured it out now, what's the use of this?

That guy Pan Mei is already terminally ill and will pass away in only half a year at most. In addition, he owes Pan Mei a life. Since the end of that battle, his life has not only belonged to him.

Resolution of Pan Mei’s last wish is what Yang Ye needs to do now.

"Okay, I've learned a lot about the matter. Zhao Duwei, please go back to the city with me."

Yang Ye patted Zhao Duwei on the shoulder with one hand, and then walked towards the North City Gate.

Not long after, when Yang Ye and Zhao Duwei arrived at the city gate, they found that the people at the city gate had disappeared. The soldiers guarding the city were actually holding their weapons in their hands and also brought out a series of things like horse-rejecting in the city.

"What's going on?"

Yang Ye frowned. The scene made him feel something was wrong. He looked at Zhao Duwei, and Zhao Duwei immediately understood what Yang Ye meant. Then he called the commander of the North City Gate. Looking at the other party's expression of panic, Zhao Duwei suddenly felt a little nervous. He asked.

"What's going on? Why did you take out all the things like Reima and the weapons, and put the crossbow on the city wall on it? Could it be that there is an enemy situation?"

The sergeant swallowed, and replied in a panic tone

"Returning to the commander, just a quarter of an hour ago, a group of brothers who went out to inspect nearby villages today reported that they found traces of a large number of troops twenty miles outside the city, and that, not only were one group of brothers who were inspecting, but these were a whole of three teams, but also reported by the brothers who were inspecting in completely different directions.

According to the investigations of these brothers, there are now three more unknown troops within a radius of thirty miles of Xiangyang, and the number of people in each army will not be less than a thousand."

Hearing the sergeant said this to Zhao Duwei in a hurry, Yang Ye's expression suddenly became solemn. He bit his lip, and after thinking for a while, he ordered Zhao Duwei.

"I will pass on this general's order and the whole city will enter a state of martial law. No one is allowed to go out without the general's order. The gates of all four cities will be closed. Any soldiers who are on the rotation to rest will immediately return to their posts. Open the armory as well, disperse weapons and crossbows to the gates of the city, and take out the turbulent oil, prepare for any precautions."

After giving these instructions, Yang Ye quickly walked into Xiangyang City.

This is a big deal. Now three unknown armies suddenly appeared outside Xiangyang City, which easily allowed Yang Ye to make some worst plans.

For example, would those three armies of unknown origin be the three armies from the Central Plains Alliance?

If this is true, then Xiangyang City will be in danger next. Because of the unwarranted war for more than ten years, the military aspects of Xiangyang City can be said to be a bit weak. The army of the whole city is only 5,000. Moreover, even these 5,000 people are mostly young people with no experience in combat, and some of them have never killed anyone. With such military literacy, even Yang Ye couldn't help but feel a little worried at this time.

Because if the three armies that suddenly emerged outside the city were the Central Plains coalition as his worst plan, then what Xiangyang City had to face next would be a hard battle.

So it is precisely because of this that he has to quickly gather the troops in the city. Moreover, Yang Ye planned to inform the people in the prefect's palace about this matter, so they didn't know anything about it. If they were not careful, they would let Pan Mei know about it.

At the same time, on a plain only ten miles away in Xiangyang City, Wu Qi and the old general were sitting in the carriage. Wu Qi shook the folding fan in his hand, looked at the old general with a smile, and said

"It's really as Xiaosheng expected. It seems that Xiangyang City will be a little lively next. I don't know where the remaining two armies are?"

Unlike Wu Qi's Feng Qingyun Dan, the old general looked solemn, because he had just learned from the spies in the army that they had discovered traces left by the army not far away, and it seemed that the number of people in that army would definitely not be less than 10,000.

Will there be tens of thousands of defenders in Xiangyang City?

This is impossible. No matter how prosperous Xiangyang City is, it is of no significance to the Nanli Empire, but it is still impossible to make a transcendent move in terms of military organization.

What is a transcendent move?

For example, the army organization of Xiangyang City, which is given by Jinling, is the organization of the first army. In other words, the army of Xiangyang City can only have 6,000 defenders if it is over.

If this number exceeds this, no matter how difficult it is in Xiangyang City, the Nanli Empire will try every means to escort Pan Mei and the others back to Jinling to punish the crime according to law.

So now, traces left by at least 10,000 troops have been found nearby, which will undoubtedly be a wake-up call for Wu Qi and his coalition forces.

What is a wake-up call?

The neighborhood of Xiangyang City is not just their army.
