In Yecheng, the defenders at the city were facing a great enemy. The sentries on each arrow tower looked vigilantly outside the city, with trumpets hanging around their waists. Once they found something was wrong outside the city, they had to warn them, and the city gate would then close.

The fifteen gates of the outer city are now closed except for the five gates of Zhongyang Gate on the east side, Zhuming Gate on the south side, Jinming Gate on the west side, Guangde Gate on the north side, and stable gates.

Ye is divided into south, north city, north city, north city, south city, south city, city walls are separated from north and south, and three gates are opened on the wall, which are Yongyang Gate, Guangyang Gate, and Fengyang Gate. On weekdays, the three gates are allowed to be passed by officials and civilians, but now there are restrictions.

The Yongyang Gate in the middle is only allowed to pass by officials, and the Guangyang Gate on the east side can only go to the army, while the others can only go to the Fengyang Gate on the west side. Who dares to walk around? It is judged by the intent that is not good.

The city gate control brings many inconveniences, but even so, there are still many pedestrians on the streets in the city, and the diners in the city lined up in the city are still booming. Several large cities are as crowded as before, with crowds and bustling.

But there were more people gathering in the streets and alleys, whispering together, as if they were talking about something.

The reason why there is such a situation in Yecheng is because of the changes in the current situation: Liyang Pass fell, and the rebel soldiers and horses were only more than a hundred miles away from Yecheng!

Although Liyang City is still in the hands of the official army, it seems that it is very likely that it cannot be defended, so the traitor is very likely to be at the city. According to the "Latest News", someone has seen an unknown roar appearing on the outskirts of the city.

For this reason, Yecheng was shocked dozens of times a day.

Various news came and went, some said that the thief slaughtered Liyang and threw the corpse into the river, causing the Yellow River to cut off the flow, some said that the thief had magic tricks that could turn ordinary pigs into pig demons, with great power and would win every battle.

Therefore, it is said that the government will soon issue a "pig killing order", and no live pig shall be left inside and outside Yecheng.

There are also rumors that the enemy commander asked for a demon to do the trick, which could turn the dead who had been buried into a skeleton monster, and would never die, eat human flesh and drink human blood, and be invincible on the battlefield, so the traitors could defeat the official army one after another.

If the other party breaks Ye City, there will probably be no more living creature inside and outside the city.

All kinds of true and false news are spreading everywhere, which makes the people of Yecheng worry and have a lot of topics of talk.

Everyone wants to see what the rumored one-legged bronze man looks like.

Ye is a famous city in the north. The people in the city claim to be knowledgeable, have broad vision and courage. Even if there is a war outside the city, there are still people who will watch it. Everyone regards war as acting, but they will not be as scared as the unknown Xialiba people. When they see the war, they collapse to the ground.

Back then, the army of the King of Shu was deployed in the suburbs of the south of the city and fought a decisive battle with the army sent by the Chang'an court. The people of Yecheng called their friends and took their families out of the city to watch the battle at the edge of the battlefield. The scene was crowded with people, just like the New Year.

Now, if the traitors really attack and the official army fights the opponent in the south of the city, there will definitely be many people going out of the city to watch the fun and see if the enemy's commander "one-legged bronze man" really has only one leg.

Or see how the one-legged bronze man takes revenge after defeating the Yecheng official army.

The one-legged bronze man is a nickname for someone. It is unknown why this person has such a nickname. Anyway, the person who speaks this and the person who listens to it will remember it. He probably knows that this "someone" is a member of the Zhou royal family, "Pig King" (King Zhu), and his surname is "Yuwen", so he doesn't know his name.

But many people know that the one-legged bronze man, the son of "Pig King Yuwen", lives in the palace of Yecheng. Now, when Aye's son is killed from Shannan to save his son, it makes the people who are watching the fun feel quite moved.

The tiger poison is not enough to eat the baby. The "Pig King" led his army across the river and screamed to save his son. Isn't this natural!

When the Zhou State destroyed Qi State, the people of Yecheng watched the Zhou army enter the city; when the Zhou State had an internal strife, the army from Chang'an fought against the defenders of Yecheng in the southern suburbs of Yecheng, and the people of Yecheng were still watching. Now, if the one-legged bronze man/the "Pig King" comes, everyone dares to watch.

Because it wasn't that they arrested the son of the "Pig King". As the saying goes, there are injustices and debts. The people think that if the "Pig King" breaks the city, they will definitely be those opponents who need to be liquidated.

Moreover, since the one-legged bronze man is the "pig king", there must be "pig soldiers" transformed by "pig demons", such as "pig pioneers", "pig scouts", "pig wise men", etc., which make people very curious and want to see clearly.

The people want to see how powerful those pig demons are when war begins.

It is precisely because of this idea that the people of Yecheng are actually talking about the war that may break out in Yecheng with a bystander mentality, and the "truth" of the battle in Liyang.

The capital is located at the foot of the emperor, and the people in the city always have various "reliable" sources of information that can reveal the "truth". Yesterday, Li Yang warned the war, and everyone thought that Li Yang was over, and many people began to hoard food and daily necessities. Today, the city is full of the truth about the battle between Li Yang.

As of today, before the latest battle report was obtained, the official army still controlled Liyang, and the reason why Liyang Pass fell was because the enemy sent dead soldiers to cross the river in advance and lurked behind Liyang Pass.

When the pass guards were determined to deal with the enemy who came across the river from the south, the dead soldiers suddenly attacked, and the official army was attacked from both sides and became in chaos. Liyang Pass was then taken away by the other party.

Liyang Pass was lost, but Liyang City was not lost. The court had sent reinforcements to Liyang, and the troops set off early this morning. It is said that the court had ordered all prefectures and counties to send troops to "respond to the king". At that time, the army of kings gathered in Yecheng, and there would be no more than hundreds of thousands of people.

Hundreds of thousands of people, one spits out a mouthful of spit, can subdue the one-legged bronze man/the "Pig King" and his army.

Of course, no one can tell whether these "hundreds of thousands" will really exist. For the people of Yecheng, fighting is just watching a show. It is rare to watch a big show if you don’t have the opportunity to have money. Everyone wants the show to be more intense and exciting.

Anyway, no matter who is the emperor, someone will have to farm and pay rent, and the people will have to do cattle and horses. Then it doesn’t matter who will do it.

Ordinary people think that they are out of the matter and can easily discuss the current situation. However, Wang, the concubine of Shu, who is an insider, is not so calm. At this moment, she summoned a group of civil and military officials in the Shu Palace to discuss how to deal with the crisis.

The news of Caozhou's defeat had just reached Yecheng for not many days. The enemy actually crossed the river and headed north and occupied Liyang Pass. If Liyang City also fell, it means that the gateway to the south of Yecheng was opened, and Yecheng and Liyang were only a hundred miles away. If...

Wang has not been able to sleep well these days. It can be said that he is in a panic and has dozens of shocks a day. But the situation still has to be decided, so she has to be calm and can only rely on the confidants left by her son Yuchi Dun to escape danger.

Cui Zishu, Fang Gongyi and others just discussed matters at the Shu Palace in the morning, but not long after, they were called to discuss matters again. Seeing the restless look of the Shu Palace, I didn't know how to comfort me.

What should be said has been said and what should be done has been arranged. The garrison in Yecheng is now taking strict precautions. Once the enemy breaks through Liyang and advances to Yecheng, the garrison immediately guards the city behind closed doors, waiting for the army to rescue the king.
