Chapter 664

Therefore.

Regardless of the scale of the commoners fleeing from Ye City, Gu Yi would lead his army to the foot of Ye City.

At this moment,

with only thirty thousand garrison troops left, anyone with eyes could see that the fall of Ye City was inevitable.

Furthermore,

the appearance of Yuan Tan and Tian Feng gave the garrison troops inside the city a huge shock!

Looking at the restless Yuan Tan,

Gu Yi decided to give him an "acceptance speech"—oh no, a "traitor's manifesto."

Yuan Tan looked at Gu Yi with gratitude.

After all, in the eyes of our Eldest Young Master Yuan,

Gu Yi was his "good brother"!

The reason Gu Yi dispatched troops to attack Jizhou was precisely to let Yuan Tan inherit the foundation of Jizhou.

Emmm, one couldn't say Yuan Tan was stupid;

it was mainly that Gu Yi's methods of fooling people were over 1,800 years ahead of Yuan Tan.

To further lower the resistance will of the garrison troops in the city,

Gu Yi took out a homemade, simplified loudspeaker and placed it in Yuan Tan's hand.

Subsequently, Yuan Tan took a deep breath, raised the loudspeaker, and said to the garrison troops on the city tower:

"Brothers of Ye City!"

"Listen well!"

"The Prime Minister has arrived with tens of thousands of heavenly troops."

"All who surrender voluntarily will be spared."

"Those who resist stubbornly will have their three clans exterminated after the city is broken!"

As the voice fell,

the panic of the Ye City garrison troops on the city tower was fully revealed.

If someone else had stood below the city tower and said this,

perhaps the effect would not have been so great.

But damn it, the one standing below the city tower now was the Eldest Young Master, Yuan Tan!

The eldest son of their own lord was standing in the enemy's camp.

How was this supposed to make the garrison soldiers think?

However,

Ye City Magistrate Shen Pei was not someone to be trifled with.

He let out a cold hum and mocked:

"Eldest Young Master, you are truly a person without benevolence, righteousness, loyalty, or filial piety!"

"Standing beside the pseudo-court Prime Minister Gu Linzhi to turn around and attack my Jizhou—you really have your ways!"

Yuan Tan's eloquence was clearly inferior to Shen Pei's.

Being spoken to like that by Shen Pei, a look of anger appeared on Yuan Tan's face.

Just as he was preparing to open his mouth to refute Shen Pei,

Guo Tu stood out from behind Yuan Tan.

Besides Guo Tu, Xu You and Xin Ping also appeared.

Seeing these three, Shen Pei was so angry his chest swelled.

If it weren't for these three traitors burning all the supplies,

how could the coalition army have suffered such heavy casualties when the Yellow River flooded?

However,

at this moment, Shen Pei had absolutely no way to deal with these three.

It was not that he was incapable,

but whether he could hold the city with only these thirty thousand garrison troops was an unknown.

How could he talk about defeating the grand army led by Gu Yi below the city?

Guo Tu smiled slightly, looked up at Shen Pei on the city tower, and mocked:

"Shen Zheng-nan, you are truly good at labeling my Eldest Young Master."

"Clearly, Yuan Benchu and Ju Gongyu are the ones without benevolence, righteousness, loyalty, or filial piety!"

"My Eldest Young Master distinguishes right from wrong, helps reason rather than kin, and stands beside the righteous Prime Minister—this is an act of righteousness to destroy kin!"

"On the contrary, you, Shen Zheng-nan, even now are still helping the tyrant."

"Are you worthy of the kindness the Han court showed your Shen family?"

Guo Tu's words were piercing.

In the original history, Guo Tu was known as a "master of rhythm."

In terms of setting the rhythm, Guo Tu could firmly rank in the top five of the late Han and Three Kingdoms era.

How could Shen Pei be his opponent?

If one were to talk about someone in the Yuan camp who could be mentioned in the same breath as Guo Tu in this regard,

it would probably only be Feng Ji.

But unfortunately,

when Xu You, Guo Tu, and Xin Ping betrayed them last time, they had already killed Feng Ji along the way.

Without Feng Ji, Guo Tu had reached the realm of "invincibility" in terms of verbal sparring.

A mere Shen Pei?

How could he be a match for Guo Tu?

On the city tower,

the soldiers who were in a dazed state, as Guo Tu's words fell, had their expressions turn very strange.

Guo Tu's words carried a kind of indescribable "magic."

If one had to explain it, perhaps it was similar to the "talk-no-jutsu" that Naruto from the neighboring world possessed.

Of course, the effect was definitely not as good as "talk-no-jutsu."

But even so, in terms of setting the rhythm, Guo Tu was also hard to find a defeat!

For a time,

the soldiers on the city tower even had their weapons become much more sluggish.

However,

the true killing weapon was still to come!

Shen Pei wanted to be the kind of loyal minister from the original history?

Gu Yi would not let him succeed!
