What method could be used to save the city?
In fact, Samuel had been thinking about this question.
However, the problem was right in front of him, and Samuel didn't have a good way to solve it.
"How many people in our city are available now?" Samuel asked.
"Around a few thousand men. However..."
Samuel knew that Pei Gu was in a difficult position, even if he didn't mention it. Pei Gu’s meaning was that the hearts of these people were no longer united, so it was unknown whether or not he would be able to use them.
Once there were too many people who couldn't be used, it would no longer be a so-called reducing method, but a thorough way to be targeted by their people.
If he couldn't use half of them, then he couldn't use all of them.
"Patriarch Pei, I need an elite team to support me."
"Otherwise, even with all sorts of clever methods, it would still be impossible."
"However, there are only a few soldiers in the city. You can see the situation." Pei Gu was in a dilemma.
"Do you know why they didn't take Tiger Jones away?" Samuel looked at Pei Gu.
Pei Gu was stunned because he'd never thought of this.
….
"Tiger Jones wants to rebel, or rather, he doesn't want to betray the Pei family, but he just wants to betray you and become a king himself," Samuel said.
Pei Gu smiled bitterly and said, "It's all my fault. I'm ashamed to have given birth to such a useless son. However, you're right. He is indeed an unfilial son."
"According to Patriarch Pei, how do you want to punish him?"
"This?" Pei Gu didn't know how to reply for a moment.
From his current state of mind, Pei Gu naturally wanted to directly kill Tiger Jones. Disobedient and unfilial, how could he be worthy of being a human?
But from a rational point of view, Pei Gu couldn't do it.
First of all, Tiger Jones was his biological son, and both Pei Gu and his family had put in a lot of effort to cultivate Tiger Jones.
If beheading Tiger Jones was a way to vent Pei Gu’s anger, then what should the Pei family do next?
