Chapter 326 The Protagonist
Li Ruizhi stood in an ordinary private house, gently pushing the window with his hand, revealing a small gap, and was looking outside.

General Geng Lang was not far behind him, unable to see what was going on outside, he could only look at Li Ruizhi's back with a complicated expression on his face.

He left the barracks with his soldiers, followed Li Ruizhi all the way to the City Lord's Mansion, and resolved the crisis in the mansion.A small number of people were assigned to escort zhang qingyang and others, and then they set off immediately without stopping, rushing to the north of gaozhou city.

This time he finally learned to be smart. He didn't ask Li Ruizhi rashly, but just followed him on the road.But in his heart, doubts are lingering.

Especially when he arrived at the place and found that this was the north gate of Gaozhou City, his doubts became deeper.

Why didn't Li Ruizhi go to the Guanfu? Is it true that Li Yongchang had a comprehensive plan as he said, or did Li Ruizhi have other ideas and didn't care about his father's death at all.What's more, he is looking forward to Li Yongchang's accident.

Coincidentally, Geng Lang Jiang and Liu Yulong had the same thought at this moment.

It's no wonder that he was thinking wildly. Since ancient times, in the face of power, the relationship between father and son is really not a reliable guarantee.If Li Ruizhi...

Geng Lang hurriedly dismissed this thought, not allowing himself to continue thinking about it.

Although this Li Ruizhi is usually a bit of an asshole and doesn't do any serious things, but I haven't heard of him doing anything outrageous.Sending his father to die is beyond the scope of ordinary bad things, he should not be so ruthless.

Geng Lang finally found a reason for himself, and felt a little more at ease.But then he remembered that this old man's usual performance was just a disguise, and his past experience was of no reference to his temperament.

The thoughts in his mind were like a battlefield where two armies were fighting, fierce and chaotic.As a result, people outside came in many times, reported to Li Ruizhi, and then left as ordered, without noticing it.

Before he could figure it out, there was a loud bang not far from Gaozhou City.Looking back from the top of the courtyard, I saw a gorgeous firework blooming in the sky, which could be seen clearly from a distance.

Geng Lang Jiang didn't understand why, so he looked around in a daze.In his ear, he heard Li Ruizhi shouted in front of him.

"coming!"

Just as he was about to ask, there was a loud noise outside the city gate as if echoing.

"kill!"

The shouts of killing all over the sky suddenly sounded, and they still pierced through a high city wall, shocking people's hearts.

Geng Lang Jiang was startled.

Someone attacked Gaozhou City?at this time?
No wonder Lao Tzu is in trouble, and Li Ruizhi has no time to go to help. It turns out that there is a bigger crisis here.

He no longer doubted Li Ruizhi's intentions, but began to worry about whether he could defend the gate of the northern city with only a few troops under his command.

When he was feeling anxious, his eyes unconsciously swept across the room, but he was completely stunned.

General Li Lang, General Qi Lang, General Tong Lang... When did they come here?Huh~ General Qi and General Wei are here too?

General Geng Lang was already dizzy, the generals in this room gathered together, he had been thinking about something just now, and he didn't realize until now.

When he saw General Zhao, the number two in the army, he finally came to his senses.

Except for the No. [-] general Yang who was arranged by Li Ruizhi to sit in the army's camp, it can be said that all powerful generals loyal to the city lord Li Yongchang are concentrated here.With this lineup, if the North City Gate is still unable to hold in the end, it is due to strength, not underestimation of the enemy or lack of preparation.

He finally settled down in his heart, and was about to understand the current situation with the generals he knew well, when suddenly there was another burst of exclamations and noises outside.

"The city gate has been breached! The city gate has been breached!"

"The city gate can't be defended anymore, the army of the Holy Empire has come in! Run for your life!"

When Geng Lang Jiang heard this, his jaw would drop to the ground.

So fast?Just kidding!
How long has passed since the sound of shouting and killing, even if it is a small earthen city, it is impossible to capture the city gate immediately after the start of the attack.

Unless there is a traitor!Geng Lang will react immediately and find the most correct answer.

He was very anxious, but suddenly found something strange.

Why does everyone seem to have expected this, and they must not be surprised or flustered, as if it wasn't their own city that was breached?
I was distracted just now, as if I missed something important.

"General Tong Lang, what's going on?" He finally couldn't bear it anymore, and asked the general who was quite talkative beside him.

Tong Lang Jiang couldn't figure him out: "What's going on?"

"Why is the city gate broken, and everyone doesn't seem to be in a hurry?" Geng Lang was anxious, not because of the city gate, but because everyone was confident, and he was the only one who didn't understand.

Tong Langjiang became even more strange, and said: "Worry? Why are you in a hurry? Didn't the young city master just say that we will use our tricks to lure people from the Holy Empire into an ambush, and then... Ha~ I see, your kid was distracted just now, no Hear the arrangement of the young city lord."

Tong Lang Jiang was halfway through speaking, but he came to his senses and pointed at Geng Lang Jiang.

Li Ruizhi in front raised his head, glanced this way, and then turned to another place.

He looked at General Zhao.

"The plan is going well, and the enemy has already fallen into the game. Even if they find something strange now, they are unable to extricate themselves. In my opinion, there is no need for us to continue hiding. It is better to go out. General Zhao, what do you think?"

He expressed his opinion, and finally consulted General Zhao's opinion, with a respectful attitude.

General Zhao nodded, agreed, and said: "The general is right. Now is the time to compete for strength. Instead of hiding behind, it is better to go to the front and cheer for the boys."

Li Ruizhi respected him very much, and he reciprocated, giving the newly appointed general enough face.

"General Zhao is familiar with the military and has rich experience. I want to give General Zhao command of the upcoming battle."

General Zhao paused, looked up at him, and said, "The last general obeys orders."

General Zhao was trapped in Lianyun Restaurant because the situation was unknown and he still had scruples in his heart, but it was not that he couldn't do anything about those people.Li Ruizhi wanted to liberate him, he didn't even need to send a single soldier, he just needed someone to run to inform him of the current situation in Gaozhou City.

General Zhao, who was less worried, immediately showed his original sharpness, controlled the scene with his backhand, and arrested the people who took the lead in making trouble.

It only took a short time to finish all this, and then he set off to the north of the city to meet Li Ruizhi.

On the way here, he issued a series of orders, and the summoned soldiers scattered like dandelions blown by a strong wind.

Arriving near the North City Gate, he had just stepped into the secret contact point that Li Ruizhi told him, and the generals who received the order almost stepped into the gate with their back feet.

General Zhao's ability to lead the army and his control over the army can be seen from this.

Li Ruizhi asked General Zhao to command the battle not only out of respect for him, but more importantly because of his trust in his ability.

He knew very well in his heart that despite his dazzling appearance before, he was definitely not the protagonist in the offensive and defensive battle at the North City Gate.

But what he didn't expect was that the protagonist was also not General Zhao.
