"General, Long City is just ahead. Are we going to defend Long City or are we going to head straight to Xian Yue City?" Seeing that Long City was already in front of them, the deputy general asked.
"Since the Cheng Family is already behind us, there is no point for us to stay in Long City. If we arouse their dissatisfaction, we might get into trouble.
Gather all the guards in the city and retreat from Long City to Xian Yue City! " The general looked back. Although he didn't see the Cheng Family's army, he believed that the Cheng Family was not far behind them.
Even if they wanted to stay in Long City, there was no point in doing so.
If the experts of the Cheng Family came and saw that they had not left Long City, it wouldn't be worth it if they were angered.
"Alas! It's a pity. Although we didn't pay a huge price to take Long City, I'm not willing to hand it over just like that! "A deputy general said.
"What can we do? We don't have the strength to do so. If our White City Alliance had a group of Tribulation Passing Experts, would the Cheng Family still dare to be so arrogant? "another deputy general said helplessly.
"Let's not talk so much. Let's enter the city quickly to avoid unnecessary trouble!" the general said.
If they really had the ability, why would they come back to Long City? Wouldn't they just occupy Hong City?
Since they had already taken this step, there was nothing more to say.
The million soldiers of the White City Alliance slowly entered the city and returned to this place.
However, they couldn't stay for too long this time. They gathered all the guards in Long City and left through the north gate of Long City.
Everyone in the city felt strange, especially those who had worked for the City Lord's Mansion and managed to escape. These people had already occupied Long City, so why didn't they leave a single soldier behind and just left?
"This is really strange! Logically speaking, they should have conquered Hong City by now and should be attacking other cities. Why did they suddenly come back and take away the guards of Long City? "Some people had been hiding in the dark for so many days, and now they could finally show themselves.
"Could it be that they were defeated by the army of Hong City?" someone asked doubtfully.
"That's impossible. Didn't you notice? Their million-strong army barely suffered any losses. It's not much different from when they attacked our Long City.
If they were really defeated by the Hongcheng army, how could so many of them return?
Furthermore, with so many people around, it was impossible for them to be defeated, right? It's even more impossible for Hongcheng to have so many soldiers! "someone said doubtfully.
"Then what the hell are they doing? Did something happen to the White City Alliance? Is that why they hurried back to the White City Alliance? "someone guessed.
"That's possible. The White City Alliance has sent so many soldiers to attack our city. Perhaps even the entire White City Alliance had been emptied of troops.
This was the best chance for the other cities and the Alliance to attack. Maybe those alliances and cities found out that the White City Alliance is attacking us, so they sent their troops to the White City Alliance! "Someone analyzed.
"Haha, if that's the case, it'll be great. The White City Alliance is so arrogant. If they go back and find out that their territory has become someone else's, the White City Alliance will really become the joke of the world! "Someone laughed.
They hated the White City Alliance to the core. If it weren't for them, they wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state.
Back then, because they couldn't escape from the city with the city lord, many guards had died in battle. They had no choice but to hide. During the days when the White City Alliance occupied the city, they had been very careful and didn't dare to show their faces.
They didn't know how their city lord was now. Would Long City still be the same as before?
Where should they go? After all, they were from the city lord's mansion. They used to receive resources from the city lord's mansion regularly.
However, they didn't even know whether their city lord was dead or alive. They didn't know what they should do in the future. Where could they get resources from?
It was all because of the White City Alliance that they were in trouble.
If it weren't for the White City Alliance, they would still be living a simple and relaxed life. At most, they would be patrolling every day and receive resources every month. Such a good thing couldn't be found anywhere.
Therefore, their hatred for the White City Alliance wasn't fake.
If the White City Alliance was attacked by other cities or alliances for sending troops to their cities as they had guessed, they should be laughing heartily and raising their cups to celebrate.
"It's the city lord! The city lord is back! " Not long after the White City Alliance's army withdrew from Long City, someone suddenly sent a message. Many people were overjoyed!
"Really? The city lord is back? "This was the best news for the people from the city lord's mansion.
As long as the city lord was back, Long City would still be the same as before. They would still be the city lord's mansion's people and wouldn't have to worry about not receiving resources anymore.
Everyone rushed to the south gate. As expected, a group of soldiers was heading toward Long City. They soon arrived at the south gate tower.
"City lord, you are finally back!" The people greeted him excitedly.
Previously, many of them had thought that they would never see the city lord again and would never be able to return to the city lord's mansion.
However, now that the city lord had returned, everyone was very excited.
As long as the city lord was still there, nothing would change. They would have someone to rely on.
After being separated for a few days, everyone felt a sense of familiarity when they saw the city lord.
"Is everyone alright? How many people from the city lord's mansion survived?" City Lord Long was also very happy to see so many people come to greet him.
Although he had led 80,000 soldiers, nearly 20,000 of them belonged to the Xian Yue City Lord. Long City only had 60,000 soldiers left, which was equivalent to a loss of about 40,000 soldiers.
For Long City, losing 40,000 soldiers was definitely a huge loss. After all, that was 40% of its military strength.
Now that so many people had survived in the city, he was naturally happy.
"City lord, we saw the White City Alliance's army leave Long City not long ago. I think there are still many people hiding in the city.
As long as the news of the city lord's return spreads, I think these people will soon return to the city lord's mansion! "the leader said.
