"Let our people gather together, we need to rush to the military camp outside the city immediately." has been exposed, then the layout in the city must be unreliable.
John directly chose the military camp outside the city because there were tens of thousands of new imperial troops there.
With them, he would be able to attack with ease or retreat temporarily.
But the question is how much the Li family knows about his plan, and what means they have prepared to deal with his rebellion.
Looking at the people present today, John suddenly caught the knight who wanted to leave.
"No, don't make any noise.
Go and prepare two horses in the alley."
Only his supporters arrived at the banquet, and John boldly guessed that the Li family wanted to kill all his people.
If so, his behavior of gathering people to leave would alarm the Li family in the dark, but if there were only one or two people, it shouldn't be difficult to leave.
Because except for him and the knights in the north, no one knew that he had created a secret passage in his residence that could lead directly to the alley outside.
John originally thought that he would not have the chance to use it, but he did not expect that caution would save his life.
As for the supporters in the banquet hall, using them as bait is not a way of supporting him.
There was no time to make any extra preparations and he took out his sword.
John disappeared from his residence not long after the knight left.
After passing through the secret passage set by himself, the luxurious dress was now covered with mud.
However, no matter how embarrassed John was, he had encountered a little filth.
His eyelids didn't even blink, but when he successfully reached the back alley, John's brows furrowed.
There was no sign of the knight who was supposed to arrive early, and the horses that were escaping were naturally not present either.
The great knight's sixth sense made John aware of the crisis, and the silence of the situation also confirmed that John's feeling was not wrong.
Yuanwang City is a city run by the Stuart family for countless years.
Although it had been depressed for a period of time after the invasion of the Li family, the power of Brilliant City had long restored the city's vitality.
Even at night, the entire Yuanwang City would be bustling with people.
And no matter how hidden the alley where John was, there was no way there would be no sound at all.
Obviously, someone cleared the scene in advance.
And there is no one else besides the Li family who can do this and has this strength.
"asshole" After muttering to himself, John wanted to turn around and crawl back to his residence, but the soldiers of Brilliant City who were hiding in the dark would not give him this chance.
The gunshot first reached John's ears.
With John's skill, at the moment the gun fired, he immediately gave up his original action and changed to a rolling trajectory to avoid the bullet attack.
But at the same time, he had also lost the chance to get back.
Countless muskets raised from the wall were aimed at him, as well as at both ends of the alley.
The chaotic footsteps made John understand that it was impossible for him to break through.
Even if he is a great knight, there is no way he can still survive under such siege.
No weapon was drawn, and in addition to force, he had a mouth.
"I want to see my ancestor" Who is leading the group has not shown up yet.
But John believed that someone as important as him could never be led by a small person.
Sure enough, a familiar voice rang, and at the same time, John saw a figure, which was Li Chenghai's real father, Li Anguo.
"The ancestor is no longer in the city a long time ago.
Baron Carter, I advise you to put down your weapons.
Maybe I can spare your life because of your friendship with my sacrificed son."
The ancestor of the Li family has not been in Yuanwang City for a long time, so where is he?
John still vaguely remembers that the last time he saw him, the old guy couldn't get out of bed.
Could it be that the old guy was just pretending everything?
From Li Anguo's words, John suddenly understood that he had fallen into the trap of the Li family ancestor.
Maybe the trap wasn't aimed at him, but he was obviously a part of it.
"If you want to deal with Lornfast, I can help you.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Lornfast trusts me, he" John and Lorne were secretly colluding.
The ancestor of the Li family set a trap for him in order to trick Lorne into believing that the wizard of the Li family had lost his ability to get out of bed.
So if John continues to help the Li family deceive Lorne, this is not a possibility of cooperation.
Baron Carter didn't believe that Li Anguo would spare his life if he put down his weapon.
Even if he really wanted to keep Li Chenghai alive for his sake, John was not willing to spend his life in the Li family's cell.
"No, no, Baron Carter.
You have helped us a lot.
For example, the new army, without your training, maybe they would still be just a bunch of rabble.
I should thank you.
Next, they will make up for the lack of our military strength. " The new army formed by the Imperials can be said to be the army created by John.
Therefore, John is very confident about one thing.
"You are wrong.
Without me, they will not obey your orders.
Let me leave and I can cooperate with you."
They tried hard to get out of the predicament, but how could the Li family let John go?
The Li family already has a way to control that army.
"You are right, so you are still the nominal commander of this army.
But it is no longer you who issue the orders.
Your subordinates, such as Misio, and those who have followed you from the north.
The knights will command those armies in your place."
John would not be surprised at all that Misio would betray him.
The adjutant was originally from Brilliant City and had a natural sense of pride in Wizard Island.
These natives were not so easy to instigate rebellion.
But what happened to the knights in the north?
John didn't believe that they would betray him, but now, Li Anguo didn't need to lie to him.
Based on his own experience, John can also guess that it was the betrayal of his own people that led him to the current situation.
At least he would be blocked in the alley, which would prove that someone among the Northern Knights chose to betray him.
As for why the other party did this, John had no time to investigate.
Maybe he was tempted by Brilliant City, after all, everything here is so fresh.
For those who come from the north, it is indeed difficult to resist the novelty.
It may also be that he is tired of the life of escaping with him and failing again and again, but not everyone can be as strong as John.
He still wanted to say something more to convince Li Anguo that he was the most useful person, but Li Anguo's patience was almost worn out.
"So, Baron Carter, if you don't put down your weapons, don't blame me for ordering the attack.
You should understand that you have no choice
