Xifeng City seemed to be an exploding pot, boiling and exploding on this night that was destined to be uneventful.

Women's cries, men's pleas, and soldiers' angry curses and expulsions echoed throughout Xifeng City.

What Chen Ze asked Xu Qing to do was to drive all the people in Xifeng City away from the city!

To put it simply, what Chen Ze wants to do is to clear the city!

In Xifeng City, he will no longer allow anyone except his own soldiers to stay.

Whether it is the common people in the city or the Xifeng soldiers who have surrendered and become prisoners.

Everyone, leave no one behind!

This was the only choice Chen Ze could make when he was helpless.

He did not have the energy to stop the possible riots coming from the city, and he did not want to suffer a fatal attack from both sides when the battle started.

He has no way to clean up the enemy forces outside the city now, so what he can do now is to take precautions and nip any possible threats in the city in the bud.

Although Xifeng City is small, with a permanent population of four to five million, it is not impossible to completely expel such a large number of people overnight, but it is necessary to use some extraordinary means.

This is Xifeng City.

For Chen Ze and others, it is just a city that has just been conquered. At most, it is just the credit that can be added to their own merits.

But for the people living in Xifeng City, this is their home, their roots, and the home they have relied on for survival from generation to generation.

They have countless bonds here, and it is also where their wealth and life are. How can they just take two pieces of clothing and leave?

There are too many people who are unwilling to leave, and even want to stay in their homeland even if they clash with Chen Ze's soldiers.

But this is not allowed by Chen Ze. He will never allow anyone to do anything that harms him while he is defending the city. Therefore, the city must be emptied!

The conflict arises from this, which is also the reason why Xu Qing hesitates.

He knew that as soon as Chen Ze issued this order, there would be a bloody massacre waiting for him.

It is impossible to convince these Xifeng people until they kill a certain number, and this certain number is by no means a small number.

So, after he began to carry out Chen Ze's orders and clashed with at least four waves of soldiers and civilians, Xu Qing, who couldn't bear it, returned to the city lord's palace and asked Chen Ze to let him possess the general.

The reason for doing this is not that Xu Qing is incapable of suppressing these conflicts. After all, most of these people are just civilians. They are not holding swords, guns, axes and shields, but only shoulder poles, kitchen knives and even brooms. There is a gap in strength between them and the fully armed army.

It's so huge that there's no way to hit it.

But precisely because he was a civilian, the more Xu Qing suppressed, the more people he killed, and the greater the psychological burden.

Finally, after the fourth wave, he couldn't bear it anymore and returned to the city lord's palace, asking Chen Ze to possess a general for him.

Although Xu Qing is possessed by the general star, he is still Xu Qing, but his courage and determination to move forward can help him harden his heart and concentrate on completing the tasks assigned by Chen Ze, without losing the kindness of a woman.

.

Even Xu Qing, who had always admired Chen Ze and was willing to serve Chen Ze, could not face his true feelings. One can imagine how cruel this expulsion plan was.

But what can Chen Ze do?

This was the best solution he could think of.

Expelling these civilians has two benefits.

One is, of course, no longer afraid of being attacked from both sides.

The second is to stop the enemy, or delay time.

These people are all people from Xifeng City, or more broadly, people from Fengqi Province. Once their homeland is lost, where will they go based on their subconscious actions?

Naturally, they are the other three cities that also belong to Fengqi Province.

Xifeng City is the farthest of the four border cities. The only place for these people who were expelled and made homeless by him is to seek refuge in the other three cities. Maybe there are relatives there too.

must.

Therefore, these people will form a huge crowd, go upstream in the opposite direction, and collide with the enemy troops who are rushing to rescue Xifeng City.

There are four to five million people in Xifeng City!

When these two encounter each other, the already narrow marching road will be tightly blocked, and it will also hinder the enemy's original siege plan.

As for the other side, in turn, gathering these civilians into one place and integrating them with the original army to form a huge army of 800,000?

If the opposing commander is smart, he might do this.

The people who escaped from Xifeng City were just panicked and helpless civilians. They had not undergone militarized training themselves, and they were terrified of having just lost their homeland. How could they become soldiers just by saying that they had become soldiers?

?

If you really want to command such an army to attack the city, apart from being a hindrance, perhaps the only function left is to kill people.

If these civilians dare to attack Xifeng City in turn, Chen Ze would like them to do this. By using these people to keep the regular army out, he can at least reduce the difficulty of defending the city by 30%.

Not only that, the commander-in-chief of the other side cannot ignore the 400,000 to 500,000 people who have escaped. They must make proper arrangements. If they are left alone or even forcibly driven away, it is very likely to trigger a mutiny!

The four cities on the border are linked together, and these civilians also have thousands of connections with the soldiers in the four cities. What will those soldiers think when they see their relatives displaced and their commander is indifferent?

For the sake of stability, the opposing coach dared not ignore it.

But if you want to take care of it, you have to spend a huge amount of resources, clothing, horses, vehicles, and military rations that come in a hurry and are already tight. At least half of these materials are allocated to the civilians.

Then how can they attack the city?

We can only wait until the next batch of supplies is delivered and we have sufficient resources before we dare to attack the city.

In this way, wouldn't it buy Chen Ze enough time?

What he lacks now is time. With 100,000 men trying to hold off the 400,000-strong army, even with the help of two legendary generals, Chen Ze still thinks that it is too much. Even if he wants to win, it will only be a miserable victory!

A miserable victory is a defeat!

At the moment, Chen Ze is still in the development stage, and every bit of strength he has earned is hard earned. Of course, he doesn't want to lose it because of Yan Haomiao's conspiracy.

Therefore, he needs to wait for time until the troops from his Qingyang Empire arrive. Only then can he be relieved of the danger of being trapped in the city.

With General Luo rushing back to Ter City, Chen Ze believed that as soon as the reinforcements arrived, he would definitely be called to Xifeng City. This was why he asked General Luo not to go with him, but to return to Ter City to wait for the reinforcements.
