2Big-head Liu seemed to be addicted to bullying Su Pei. He first looked around proudly, then, he shoved Su Pei, and when he saw the crowd, he became even angrier. However, nothing could do to him. He felt even more proud in his heart.    

    

"General Su, are you alright?" The soldier next to Huang Feng saw Su Pei being pushed, so he quickly went forward to support him.    

    

"I'm fine." Su Pei waved his hand and said. His heart was not bad. Although he was a little angry with Liu Datou, he did not have the intention to kill him to vent his anger.    

    

Huang Feng didn't step forward. He didn't know much about this General Su, so no one respected him. Of course, he wasn't as happy as Liu Datou when he bullied Su Pei.    

    

"This Liu Datou is too much. How can he treat you like this?" The man complained.    

    

"It's fine" Su Pei waved his hand and said. After that, he put the matter at the back of his mind and stood by the city wall, looking at the enemy troops outside.    

    

Although he had already predicted that they might have a difficult time this time, or even a failure, however, they were comrades who had fought together before. Su Pei naturally did not want too many people to die on their side. However, looking at the orderly army of Formation, Su Pei still frowned.    

    

He had participated in the first exchange of blows with the Western Army. At that time, he wasn't General yet, so he had also participated in the battle at the front line. At that time, the Western Army was in a mess. The entire Formation was in a mess. There was no order at all. The ___ was scattered by them.    

    

But now, this Western Army was like another army. It was neat and orderly, making people feel scared. He could feel the oppressive aura coming from it even from such a far distance.    

    

The numerous soldiers on the city wall seemed to have sensed something as well. As the Western Army got closer and closer, the chaotic voices that they had been talking earlier had disappeared. They held their weapons tightly in their hands and looked at the Western Army. The nervous expression on their faces became more and more obvious.    

    

The uprising army was very poor. After all, they were not regular troops and did not have a system supply line. They had food and weapons because they had won a few battles and confiscated them. However, there would not be too many of them.    

    

This was also the reason why they were now so poor. There were still quite a number of people in their team who were holding hoes. Shovels were used as weapons. As for bows and arrows, which were very rare in the regular army, there were even fewer of them, as well as the losses from the previous few battles. Now, all of the uprising armies on the city wall, including archer, only had a few hundred of them.    

    

Furthermore, it would take many years to nurture an archer. These people were obviously not qualified archer. They were just infantry with bows and arrows in their hands. There was no accuracy at all. Luckily, there were many enemies on the other side. They did not have to worry about their accuracy.    

    

However, there were too few people. This was an obvious disadvantage. The only thing they could rely on now was the sturdy city walls. There were also some burnt feces, stones, and other things. As for how useful these things could be, only the heavens knew.    

    

However, the leaders of the uprising army clearly thought that they could rely on the city walls to defend against the Western Army's attack. This time, they would definitely be able to do it.    

    

"This war is not easy to fight." Su Pei sighed in his heart. Due to the orders of his leader, he could not come to the city walls at all. His judgment was based on the information provided by his subordinates and Wang Daniu. Now that he had seen the enemy's formation with his own eyes, he realized that he had underestimated the enemy.    

    

After that, Su Pei thought about what those people had said last night. There were already some people in the city who had colluded with the army of the Imperial Court. Under the cooperation of both internal and external forces, it would be even harder for them to defend the city.    

    

"General Su, who do you think will win this war?" As if Su Pei was thinking of a countermeasure, a gentle voice sounded beside his ear. He turned around and saw a young man looking at him with a smile. Obviously, he was the one who asked the question just now.    

    

Su Pei quickly realized that this man was different from the others. It wasn't because he had good eyesight, but because the people around him were so nervous that they didn't dare to say anything when they saw the dark crowd in front of them.    

    

However, this young man was very calm at this moment. Su Pei could tell that he wasn't pretending to be calm, but really calm, as if he wasn't afraid of everything around him.    

    

"It's very difficult for us to win. It won't be easy for the opponent to win." Su Pei said.    

    

"Oh, what General Su means is that the war will continue?" Huang Feng asked. He was the one who asked Su Pei the question. He had already experienced several battles. Therefore... Naturally, he wouldn't be afraid of the scene in front of him. Furthermore... Even if he died, he would only be returning to reality. There was nothing to worry about.    

    

Huang Feng was curious about this General Su Pei whom everyone admired. That was why he took the initiative to talk to him.    

    

"No." Su Pei shook his head and said, "We might be the ones who lost. The problem now is how long we can last. It depends on how determined the other side is to take down this city."    

    

In Su Pei's opinion, the possibility of them losing was very high. However, if the commander of the enemy army didn't want to make too big of a sacrifice... They might be able to hold on for a little longer, but if the other side attacked without considering the losses from the beginning... They might not be able to hold on for long. In addition, there were uncertain factors in the city. Therefore, Su Pei was very worried.    

    

"General Su, you're saying that we can't defend Mei County? How is this possible!" The militant beside Huang Feng also heard the conversation of the man. He called out in surprise. Because in his and most of the uprising army's hearts, it did not seem too difficult for them to defend this county. However, he did not expect that General Su Pei, whom he admired, would be able to do so. He actually said such words.    

    

"I agree with General Su." Huang Feng said. Although he hadn't been here for a long time, he had participated in several battles after all. He had some experience and opinions.    

    

The military quality of the soldiers in the city could not be compared with the regular army outside. Moreover, their equipment was also lagging behind. archer didn't have much long-range equipment. More importantly, he did not know what these people were thinking. They actually thought that he would win for sure. So, when he was defending... He was very relaxed, which was obviously very deadly.    

    

On the other hand, even though the imperial court's army outside had yet to exchange blows, the difference in morale between the two sides was very obvious.
