Soon, Li Fan's intention to mobilize the wealthy households in the city to gather all kinds of silk brocades and precious cloths was conveyed to every household.
If the current priority was not to fight against evil spirits, they would almost think that they were asking for bribes in different ways, asking them to contribute these things obediently as a filial piety.
You must know that in many cases, cloth and silk are equivalent to money. In the Tang Dynasty, there was even a system where money and silk were both used.
Even in the Qian Dynasty, fine cloth and silk satin were still valuable.
"Just do what he says, that guy has a good background, and he has my father in his hand. If we really find an excuse to bring him back to the Holy Capital, it will be troublesome.
If he is not a stranger and does not have much strength in his hands, he may be able to forcibly detain the person and snatch the person back.
But he is a stranger, and there is nothing we can do against him..."
After Kong Zhimao learned about Li Fan's plan, he felt quite humiliated and said helplessly to the tribesmen around him.
At this time, he also vaguely realized that times had really changed.
Due to the existence of strange power, aliens are the people with the strongest force in the world.
The servants and guards under him are really not enough.
Maybe it's time to explore those weird things and grasp the related power.
But I heard that becoming a stranger is dangerous and difficult.
This is undoubtedly a huge obstacle for people like them who come from a wealthy family.
The Kong family is a well-known family in the local area, and after they surrendered, it really affected other families.
Other families may be related to them by marriage or have a lot of involvement in business. They look at them in everything and use them as the vane...
In just half a day, they agreed on the proportion of their respective investment and agreed to provide usable materials.
Li Fan knew that they must still have some pieces of cloth hidden away, but at this time he understood the nature of those cloth monsters more deeply, and also roughly understood the meaning of "value".
"That kind of cloth demon is as close to 'value' as a moth to a flame. The collection and concentration of cloth can actually be more targeted.
Chances are, you can attract them all just by making sure the bundled cloth is of higher value.
The private things in those people's hands are just used as backups, so that after one failure, they still have the capital to make a second try. "
This is the result of personally seeing the movements of those strange source materials with the eyes of truth-seeing.
The officials in Yelu City were doubtful, but until now, they still did what Li Kuan said.
Time soon came to the evening of another day.
In Yelu City, the place that was originally used for the market was vacated. The powerful people in the city worked together, and soon a large area was cleared and the formation needed by Li Chuan was put in place.
Temporary earth mounds were erected on three surrounding walls throughout the market place.
A large number of army sergeants mobilized to build fortifications, but instead of putting up the wooden walls and fences used to prevent enemy cavalry or soldiers from attacking, there were rows of pots and pots and piles of bonfires.
There are pumps and water dragons nearby that can be activated at any time.
These were originally tools used to put out fires, but at this moment, what they contained was not water, but tung oil and various fire oils.
Even ordinary people can hide behind soldiers and use the high pressure of tools to spray out the oil.
There are also soldiers and horses watching on the rooftops of nearby residential buildings and temporary towers.
They were also prepared with braziers and torches that could be lit at any time to prevent the cloth demon from getting close.
Civilian craftsmen are gathering together, wrapping the arrows in cotton cloth, dipping them in oil and other things to make rockets.
"Is such a big battle really effective?"
When someone saw it, they couldn't help but murmur. Please download the app Aiyue app for the latest content
"His intention is nothing more than to surround three missing ones and annihilate them in a concentrated manner. If it is really effective, those cloth demons should have come out while we were carrying the cloth. How come there is no reaction at all?"
Kong Zhimao said coldly to the tribesmen next to him.
"Then what should we do? If the guy can't succeed, he won't be angry with us, right?"
"No matter what, if it doesn't work out then, it's none of our business."
Kong Zhimao spoke tough, but he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart.
What the tribesman said makes sense. If it doesn't work, I'm afraid that my group won't be able to survive and just go around in circles.
At this moment, he finally remembered that everything Li Fan did was for the entire Yelu City.
Only if this war of annihilation can be won can everyone truly be at peace.
Also having doubts were Zhong Cheng and others.
However, they knew that Li Ao fought against the evil spirit last night and temporarily defeated it.
There are actually not many evil spirits wandering in the west of the city now. During the day, General Huo, who was guarding this area, sent troops and horses to patrol the city and eliminate as many cloth demons as possible.
If you mark the order of these battles on the map, you can find that Li Ao consciously controls their rebirth locations and continuously compresses the scope of his activities.
Out of trust in Li Chuan, all the people in the city and the people in the city also performed their duties, responded to Li Chuan's call, and got busy.
For the sake of safety, everyone cannot be concentrated on the decisive battlefield. Those who can really participate in the battle are only a few elites brought by Li Ao himself, as well as Zhong Cheng's own confidants.
Before that, Li Fan found an opportunity to take a short rest and temporarily recuperate his spirit. Then he drank a few sips of wine to force himself to cheer himself up.
"Whether the method will work depends on this time. If it goes well, the problem here can be solved in one go, but if it doesn't go well, it will only take a few more twists and turns.
As the saying goes, if you try hard at one go, it will fail again, and it will be exhausted after three times... Some methods only have one or two chances to try. If they don't work, it will greatly dampen everyone's enthusiasm.
When everyone gathers together, they become a mob, without the patience to persevere and keep trying.
Unless you have your own core team..."
Unlike the confidence he displayed in front of Zhong Cheng and others, Li Ao was actually only about half confident in his heart.
But he understood that only he could clearly see the transfer of the strange essence and accurately grasp the timing of sealing the cloth demon.
Therefore, you have to hold on and don't show your timidity.
At the same time, he was also vaguely aware of what he really lacked now.
That is a reliable companion and comrade-in-arms.
It's not a fighting aid like the Cat Immortal, but a companion who can truly stand alone.
At this moment, at an unguarded street corner, several mysterious figures quietly walked out, looking in the direction of the market from a distance, with thoughtful expressions.
"With such a big battle, have they really found a way to deal with those cloth monsters?"
"We can't continue like this. We finally discovered such a good opportunity. How could we let them calm down this weird incident so easily?"
