However, Li Ru's yelling outside the party did not seem to have the slightest effect.

There is still silence in the Shangdang City....

A gentle breeze blew slowly, and flags rattled.

As if mocking Li Ru's idiotic behavior.

"This is really a capable person, and he can still hold back."

Li Ru looked at Shangdang, who was still very quiet, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"According to Xi Zhicai's ability, it is impossible not to leave the party as an empty city."

"That's right, if it were us, we would definitely hold this party firmly in our hands."

Sima Yi also said with a firm face.

"But then again, what is the purpose of Qin Feng's trip? It's not just going to be a fight with us for nothing. ”

Listening to Sima Yi's words, Li Ru also frowned slightly.

"What's wrong? Did anything else happen during my absence? ”

Listening to Li Ru's words, Sima Yi also nodded slightly.

"Strategist, you are in an embarrassment in the merger state, naturally you don't know anything else."

Sima Yi's eyes narrowed slightly when he said this.

"According to our reliable information, only Yuan Shao and Liu Bei of Qingzhou responded positively after our army entered the state."

"How is that possible? Didn't it say that the Xiongnu had already occupied the five cities of the steppe? Didn't we let them take the troops to support Wuhan first, and set up troops to go south together! ”

Li Ru said in disbelief, but suddenly a fine light flashed in his eyes.

"Could it be...."

"That's right, the Huns on the grassland have not moved at all, and Xun Yu has already returned with a large army..."

Sima Yi said slowly, and a trace of shame flashed in his eyes.

"That's right, those Huns were simply coaxing us, they didn't attack Qin Feng's territory at all."

"What about Yuan Shu? Why didn't Yuan Shu come? ”

After Li Ru heard Sima Yi's words, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

Although he also knew that it was impossible for Yuan Shu to come to help, Li Ru was still a little unwilling.

However, the reality is always cruel, and Sima Yi still shook his head slowly.

This simple action hit Li Ru's heart like a lightning strike.

"Our army doesn't have to stay here for a long time, even if it defeats the party, it will be returned sooner or later."

In the end, Li Ru shook his head helplessly, and then turned around and walked towards the road behind him.

"Pass my order to retreat...."

"Aren't we going to attack the party?"

Xiahou Chun and Xiahou Yuan asked with some confusion after hearing Li Ru's words.

"That drama will inevitably gather all the troops in order to surround us, and now there are not too many troops in the entire merger state."

"There must be very few soldiers in the party now, but there is still a large army coming behind our army...."

Li Ru looked at the road when he and the others came with some helplessness.

Along the way, I didn't know how long it took me to hurry, so I let Xi Zhicai and others catch up.

If you waste too much time here in the party, I'm afraid that you and the others will really have to be explained in the merger state.

"Moreover, I designed to seize the state because there are many forces to contain Qin

Feng, but now there are only Liu Bei and Yuan Shao, who do you want to contain Qin Feng? ”

Li Ru looked at the somewhat lost people around him and said again.

"Originally, I thought that Qin Feng would be greatly injured after this time, but now it seems that it should be us who are really injured."

After Li Ru finished speaking, he continued to walk behind him, and no one raised any objections along the way.

Soon, under the leadership of Li Ru, the mighty army slowly rushed in the direction of Si Li.

Figures also appeared one after another on the head of the party city.

Looking at the army leaving in the distance, Gao Shun's face also showed a hint of joy.

I don't know why they evacuated here, but I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Soon it was only a day after the Sili army left, and Xi Zhicai finally came to Shangdang with the army.

Looking at the empty city, Fa Zheng and the others couldn't help but be shocked, and then a trace of anger appeared on their faces.

"Look, military advisor, I just said that this Gao Shun has already betrayed our army, otherwise how could this party be so empty!"

Fa Zheng said with some annoyance.

"And a few days ago, I specially sent troops to check, and our officers and soldiers only found that there was an army of thousands of subordinates here, and nothing else! Nothing, you know! ”

With the outbreak of Fazheng, everyone present couldn't help but be stunned.

Because these news were deliberately blocked by Xi Zhicai, no one present knew that Gao Shun did not have any news.

Xi Zhicai rode a war horse and slowly came to the foot of Shangdang City, looking at the empty city wall above, and a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

"High cannon, get out of here!"

Just when everyone looked at Xi Zhicai with some doubts.

Xi Zhicai shouted at the party with a fierce face.

was yelled at by Xi Zhicai like this, and everyone present fell into a state of confusion.

I can't imagine that Xi Zhicai is usually polite, but there is such a vulgar side behind his back.

Just when everyone was puzzled, the door to the party slowly opened.

"Strategist, Strategist, you're finally back."

Gao Shun ran out of the city cave with a team of soldiers quickly, and said excitedly to Xi Zhicai not far away.

"I can't imagine that General Gao still has such ability, and even I can't find out if there is anyone among them."

Xi Zhicai looked at Gao Shun's figure and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

Originally, he also thought that as Fa Zheng said, whether Gao Shun had a mutiny or something....

But now it seems that everything is thinking too much about himself, and maybe Gao Shun has unspeakable hardships.

Lu Bu, Guan Yu and the others looked at Gao Shun who walked out quickly, and a trace of doubt flashed in their eyes.

Everyone's eyes shifted to Fa Zheng on the side, and Fa Zheng seemed to be still saying that Gao Shun had rebelled or something, but now it's....

Fa Zheng was a little hairy in Guan Yu's heart, and his face became ruddy.

Just when Fa was about to step forward to question Gao Shun.

Xi Zhicai had already taken the lead and asked Gao Shun.

"General Gao, have you been guarding the party all this time?"

Listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Gao Shun's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of confusion.

"Of course! Since you are gone

Since then, I have been staying in the party and have never left. ”

Although he didn't know what Xi Zhicai meant, Gao Shun still replied honestly.

"Then did you see a troop passing by the party?"

Xi Zhicai continued to ask, his eyes full of seriousness.

"After going to the party? More than ten days ago, there was indeed a force of thousands passing under the Shangdang City, and they were still walking against the city wall. ”

Gao Shun nodded and replied suspiciously.

"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this? ”

"That's the army passing through the party, it's no problem, but why didn't you report to us, General Gao?"

When he said this, Xi Zhicai's body exuded a faint killing intent, and the momentum of his body also pressed towards Gao Shun's body.

"Report the news? How, didn't you hear from us? ”

After Gao Shun heard Xi Zhicai's words, he said with a puzzled face, his face full of surprise.

"Did I send soldiers to deliver the news to you more than ten days ago? Why didn't you receive it? ”

"Did you really send me a message? Why did I never receive it? ”

Looking at Gao Shun's expression, a trace of doubt flashed in Xi Zhicai's eyes.

He could fully believe that the look on Gao Shun's face now was not a fake.

"This is natural, since I received the news, I will naturally notify you immediately, not to mention that this is such a big news, but I am afraid of being discovered by the other party, so I let them go at night."

Gao Shun nodded and said slowly.

"The military advisor can ask every soldier behind me, they all know about this matter, and I have been wondering recently, whether those soldiers were detained by the military advisor, so they haven't come back for a long time."

"And not long after that army left, an army of nearly 4,000 Sili came to Shangdang again, so I also thought it was because of those troops, so they didn't come back."

Listening to Gao Shun's explanation, the suspicion in Xi Zhicai's eyes was not so obvious.

"In that case, it's about the general's innocence, and the general is here for a while."

After pondering for a long time, Xi Zhicai said to Gao Shun with a serious face.

"Although Shun doesn't know what happened, since you said so, then Shun naturally complied."

After Gao Shun finished speaking, he stepped aside, silently looking outside the city and no longer speaking.

"Xiaozhi, you go to the city and ask to see if what General Gao said is true."

Looking at Gao Shun's obedient appearance, Xi Zhicai's heart was very uncomfortable.

But this must always be done, otherwise Goldman's reputation may be tarnished like never before.

"The three generals also ask to take some of the soldiers to investigate the surroundings and see if they can find traces of those soldiers."

After Guan Yu and the others heard Xi Zhicai's words, they also saluted respectfully, and quickly dispersed towards the surroundings with a thousand soldiers.

Seeing that everyone was starting to get busy, Zhicai also sighed helplessly.

"General Gao, we were suddenly attacked by the enemy in this battle, and we didn't receive any news, and I ask General Gao's forgiveness...."

Xi Zhicai looked at Gao Shun on the side a little helplessly and said slowly

"The military advisor is fine, I am tall and a certain person walks upright, sits upright, and never fears this."

Gao Shun showed a kind smile after speaking...
