Chapter 307 - 178: Take back the main city! Slaughter!_2
When the real battle began, he had actually abandoned the army of over ten thousand and entered the heartland of Tianshui City alone, bringing chaos to the city with his own strength, and in the end, even cunningly killed the undefeated commander Suo Hanyi.
No matter from which perspective, he was an extremely powerful ruler. Even though his martial skills were weak, for a lord, martial prowess was the least important.
Having such a lord, Tianshui City not only avoided being bullied, but it would’ve been a surprise if they didn’t bully others.
Facing such a lord, they weren’t close to him, but they were filled with dread.
But what should they do now? Draw their swords and fight to the death against Suo Lun?
Impossible, they had been loyal to the Suo Family for generations, and now that they knew the truth, were they really going to rebel and kill their lord?
So, what about retiring and returning to their homelands? That was also impossible, for they were professional samurai, professional knights; they knew nothing other than fighting. Leaving Tianshui City would make them wandering samurai, but would they really go to the great forests to hunt Barbarian Tribes’ heads for a living?
Thus, only one choice was left.
Loyalty to Suo Lun, loyalty to their true lord.
"What are you waiting for?" Yang Hongyi said coldly, "Don’t forget that your lord Suo Lun still has an army of fifteen thousand outside Tianlang Pass, hard-bitten mercenaries eying your positions greedily."
With those words, the two leaders of the thousand-man cavalry immediately removed their helmets and knelt on one knee.
