Chapter 496

He had long had the idea of retreating.

After resting for a day, the physical strength of the civilians in the city had almost recovered, and the fear in their spirits had also dissipated somewhat.

Nearly seventy thousand civilians, under the command of the beastmasters and the City Guard troops, began to leave the city in an orderly fashion.

Many civilians carried bundles and looked back at Wanyang City, their eyes red.

Many civilians had lived in Wanyang City for generations.

If it weren't for the fact that it was absolutely necessary, who would be willing to leave their homeland?

A City Guard shouted with dissatisfaction: "I'm talking to you, what are you dazed for? Hurry up and go!"

Inside the largest hotel in Wanyang City, the landlady felt as if she had been struck by lightning when she heard the news of the evacuation.

Leaving Wanyang City meant she needed to abandon almost all of her family business.

Including this largest hotel in Wanyang City.

"Adjutant Liu, didn't Captain Su say that Wanyang City would be held?"

Su Yang actually hadn't guaranteed it, but the landlady thought he had.

Liu Liu Mengyun said coldly: "The situation has changed!"

"Then what about Captain Su?" the bald boss behind the landlady asked respectfully: "Can we stay by Captain Su's side and leave together?"

Transferring from one city to another was not as simple as it looked on the surface.

The journey was long, fierce beasts were everywhere, and Wanyang City's beastmaster troops had suffered heavy losses.

It was difficult to guarantee the safety of the civilians!

But if they left with Su Yang, and Su Yang took care of them a little, they would definitely be much safer.

"I'm afraid that won't work; Su Yang doesn't plan to leave for the time being!"

"Why? Isn't everyone supposed to evacuate?"

"He intends to... guard the city alone!"
