Liangzhou, Xihe City.

Xiao Yinmo, Yun Changgeng and his three brothers, and five thousand soldiers appeared outside the city.

Looking at the tightly closed city gate, Xiao Yinmo gave a few instructions and asked someone to go forward and make a speech.

"Listen, everyone inside. Surrender now and I will forgive you for what happened before. You all have parents and children. Don't make them worry or get scared. Open the city gates and follow His Highness. You will have enough for three days and nine meals..."

Li Xiu heard the shout and looked down at the city, and said anxiously: "Quick, quick, quick! Go open the city gate to welcome His Highness!!"

Li Xiu's subordinates looked at him in disbelief and asked, "Brother! Why are you surrendering? Aren't we going to conquer the world together? We have already captured five cities, why are you giving up?"

Li Xiu looked at his subordinates as if they were fools: "Are you stupid? Do you know who is under you?"

"A member of the royal family, a weak prince."

"anything else?"

"There's also this young General Yun. It's not General Yun who's here, so why should we be afraid? How do you know we can't win? I'll chop that young boy off his horse!"

"You still want General Yun to come? Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? Are we worthy of it?" Li Xiu widened his eyes.

"Brother!!! How can you boost the enemy's prestige and destroy your own morale like this! Didn't we agree to rebel against the world together? Why are you doing this now?"

Li Xiu sighed, patted his shoulder, and looked at the brothers around him who were also angry: "Brothers, the former crown prince and General Yun are here just to give us a way out. Behind them is General Yun and a hundred thousand troops! I want to ask you, can we, a small group of refugees and a mob, be their opponents?"

"There's no reason to surrender! How can we live a good life after surrendering?" Some people were dissatisfied.

"Let's not talk about the prince's reputation. General Yun is a man respected by the enemy countries. He never kills prisoners! You don't believe in the prince, so how can you not believe in General Yun? And I don't believe that the prince is a coward who can live in a corner and be bullied by this bird. He will definitely take back his throne. As long as we follow him, we will be following the dragon!"

Everyone was wavering. Now they seemed to be on the rise after taking five cities in a row, but only they knew that their men were all starving civilians, and few of them knew how to fight. They were determined to die of starvation, so they could do this. If they were to face those soldiers, they would not be able to fight! These were all soldiers led by General Yun who had been on the battlefield and had seen blood in hundreds of battles! ! When they heard the shouting outside the city, they began to waver.

"I'll listen to my brother!" someone started.

"Then I'll listen to you, big brother!"

"I believe that General Yun will not kill innocent people. We were forced to do this. I believe that General Yun will understand us!"

"Okay! Open the city gate!"

Under the city.

"Your Highness, is it really useful to shout like this? Why don't we just attack directly?" Yun Changgeng scratched his head and couldn't help but said as he heard the person shouting was about to become hoarse. Just a few rioters, it's not a big deal, so his father was relieved to let him follow His Highness to take back the city.

"Brother Chang Geng, they are all our people of Tianchen. If they really couldn't survive, they wouldn't do this. We can't use the weapons in our hands against our own people."

Xiao Yinmo looked at the city wall, his eyes full of apology.

"The best strategy is to attack the enemy's mind. To defeat the enemy without fighting is the greatest wisdom. Big brother, read more books! Don't always think about fighting and killing." The second brother Yun Qiming sighed. The eldest brother is very powerful, but he doesn't like to read. If it weren't for his father saying that to become a general, he must first be able to read and read military books, otherwise the eldest brother would not be able to read.

"If father hears, big brother will be beaten again." Yun Xingyao laughed gloatingly. From childhood to adulthood, the big brother was the one who got beaten the most among the three brothers.

Yun Changgeng blushed when he heard what his two younger brothers said. Fortunately, his father was not there, otherwise he would definitely be beaten.

"Also, I sent people to inquire. Although they seized five cities, they did not kill innocent people indiscriminately. They only killed officials and profiteers who did not eat the flesh of the people. Other than that, they did not kill innocent people. The county magistrate of Xihe City was dedicated to the people. Although he is now imprisoned in the county government, he is still alive. The food they robbed was also distributed to the people who had no food to eat. So, do you think they are good people or bad people?"

Yun Changgeng's expression changed, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed of his previous thoughts.

"The city gate is open!" Si Cheng said.

Xiao Yinmo looked over and saw that the city gate was wide open. "Then you guys follow me in! The rest of the soldiers stay here and don't move."

"Your Highness! Could this be a trap?" The guards were a little worried.

"They dare not." Xiao Yinmo smiled confidently.

"Come on, follow me in."

Xiao Yinmo brought the three Yun Changgeng brothers and several of Si Cheng's personal guards into the city, while the soldiers were waiting outside the city.

After entering the city gate, Li Xiu and others were already standing there, waiting nervously and anxiously. The surrounding area was full of vigilant people.

"Welcome, Your Highness!" Li Xiu and others knelt down and saluted.

Xiao Yinmo quickly dismounted and helped them up: "No need to be polite. It was our fault that we did not provide disaster relief in time, which forced everyone into this situation. I apologize to everyone on behalf of the royal family and the court."

Xiao Yinmo clasped his fists and bowed deeply to the crowd with sincerity.

Neither Li Xiu and the others nor the people around them expected that the distinguished man in front of them would suddenly apologize and bow to them. They all stood there in a daze.

Not to mention the royal family members who were as high as the clouds, even the runners of the county government would look down on them. They were the lowest class, the most neglected, and had never been cared about for thousands of years. Now, someone apologized to them.

For some reason, at this moment, they felt panic and wanted to cry. It was as if they were seen by someone...

It seemed as if God understood their mood at the moment, and light rain began to fall from the sky.

"It's raining! It's raining! It's finally raining after more than a year!"

"It's finally raining!! We are saved!!"

"It's your highness! It's raining since your highness arrived!"

"Your Highness!! Your Highness! Your Highness!!"

"..."

People cheered with joy. The look in their eyes when they looked at Xiao Yinmo was no longer vigilant and resentful.

Xiao Yinmo looked up at the gloomy sky, then looked at the excited people, and a smile spread across his face.

The people are really simple.

The suffering will eventually pass, won't it?
