The sight of that fluttering banner instantly lifted the spirits of the many defending soldiers who had been trapped in a bitter fight!
Those were the troops of General Feng Zhang!
Although they didn't know how he had learned of Long City's fall, his appearance at this moment was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the demoralized soldiers and citizens.
Feng Zhang!
He was the nephew of the old General Feng Cheng!
Though he had been in seclusion for several years, he had once held considerable prestige in the army. Which soldier didn't know his name?
"We're saved!"
Hope is the greatest motivator!
The excitement of the defending soldiers was matched only by the shock and panic of the Southern Hu people.
"How do they have reinforcements!? Where on earth did these people come from!?"
Behind the scattering crowd, Tuoba Yu, who had just left the Prefectural Magistrate's Mansion in disguise, also took in the scene, his face a mixture of pale and ashen.
