"It's a shame indeed." A man about the same age as the scribe whispered.

The man was dressed in a similar way to Guo Yi, the god of war who had been in Kyushu for twenty years: he was wearing silver armor, a silver helmet on his head, and a white cloak on his back.

Under the silver helmet is an extremely handsome face, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a face like jade. Beside him, the handsome-looking young man suddenly looked overshadowed.

Shu is beautiful, Shu people are very handsome regardless of men and women, and for a hundred years, most of the characters on the list of beautiful men and women in the past dynasties have also come from Song Yong.

Speaking of which, the Yong royal family is still a branch of the Li family of the Tang Empire that perished more than 100 years ago, and the Yongguo has existed since the fall of the Tang Empire.

The terrain of Shu is rugged and complex, which can be described as a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Yongguo Kingdom has stood for a hundred years without falling. Although Tianlan City is the first city in the world, it has also had the experience of changing hands. However, Yongdu Yucheng has been truly in the hands of Yongguo for a hundred years.

Over the years, only two enemy armies have come to the city of Yudu.

One is the 100,000 Great Song Expeditionary Army led by Zhao Che, the king of the Song Dynasty, twenty years ago, in order to unify the imperial expedition of Kyushu; The other is the 100,000 Qi army that has just retreated.

"Wang cough... Your lord, the minister is guilty. The young scribe shook at the handsome man, "If it weren't for the words of the ministers, the king wouldn't have coughed... I won't let the 20,000 iron horsemen in Liangzhou go south two days late, so cough, cough! ”

The young scribe was in poor health, and in the middle of his sentence he began to cough violently, and his pale face turned red.

The person who can be called the king in this Yongwang City is naturally Yongwang Li Hongtu. He helped the scribe to his feet, and while patting the scribe on the back, the true qi continued to pour into the scribe's body from his palm.

After the scribe stopped coughing and his face improved, Li Hongtu put down his hand and looked sideways at the retreating Qi army, "This matter is Lonely's decision, and I can't complain about you." Moreover, Yang Zhiyong, a loyal dog of Qi State, is cautious, even if the 20,000 Liangzhou iron cavalry arrived earlier, he may not be able to eat all the 100,000 Qi troops. ”

A few months ago, Yang Zhiyong was defeated. Li Hongtu and this scribe set a strategy, lured Yang Zhiyong to Yudu, and at the same time transferred him to the south of 20,000 iron cavalry that Dayong had secretly trained in Liangzhou for many years, and attacked back and forth, annihilating this army of Vayong in one fell swoop.

Liangzhou was originally the territory of the Qi State, and Yang Zhiyong would never have imagined that Liangzhou had already secretly leaned towards the Yong Kingdom, let alone that there would be 20,000 iron cavalry attacking his back road.

Li Hongtu knew that Yang Zhiyong was suspicious and cautious in everything, so he listened to the advice of the scribes, deliberately engaged him on the border of Shuzhou, and retreated step by step, and it took several months to lure him to the city of Yudu. In order to ensure that the plan was foolproof, Liangzhou Tieqi was delayed a few days in going south.

didn't want the two of them to plan to be self-defeating in the end, and Yang Zhiyong's sudden withdrawal of troops made them fall short. After months of hard work, the bamboo basket was finally empty.

"Saiong is not a blessing if he loses his horse, which may not be a good thing for me Dayong." Due to being instilled with true qi by Li Hongtu, the young scribe's originally pale face became ruddy.

"What do you mean by that?" Li Hongtu glanced at the scribe, and his eyebrows seemed to be a little puzzled.

Seeing that the scribe was about to make a move again, Li Hongtu interrupted a little impatiently: "Don't be lonely, I am very annoyed when I see the corner of your literati's mouth, hurry up." ”

The scribe replied, "No." ”

Li Hongtu snorted coldly, turned his back, and then heard the scribe say: "Although Liangzhou is attached, the remnants of the fallen country in Liangzhou must not be guarded against. If they fight a decisive battle with Yang Zhiyong, even if they win a big victory, our army will inevitably be miserable, and it will be difficult to guarantee that Liangzhou will not have dissenting intentions. ”

"Reasonable." Li Hongtu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Qi Jun, who gradually disappeared from view, and said, "But can you just let them go?" You must know that in order to bring them here, I Dayong also lost a lot of good children. ”

Speaking of this, he turned around and said in a deep voice: "In order to complete this plan, Lone deliberately concealed the generals in the army. These days, there are already many complaints in the army, and if they don't send a single pawn, they are allowed to go back like this, I am afraid that there will be some trouble. ”

"Your Majesty." The scribe came to Li Hongtu's side and raised his hand to the direction of the retreat of the Qi army, "The king is reluctant to let him go like this, but how can Yang Zhiyong be willing?"

In Yichen's opinion, Yang Zhiyong is afraid that he is waiting for our army to pursue, presumably at this time he has already ambushed the troops in the lower layers, so..."

"So that's why you instigated the king to avoid war?!"

A young general in brown armor came behind the two of them at some point, and he pointed at the scribe and shouted angrily: "How can the Shu people ever fear death, even if they faced the invincible Song army of 100,000 twenty years ago, our Shu people have never retreated. In order to defend Yudu, he paid the lives of tens of thousands of Shu people.

Now a mere Yang Zhiyong, a rat who became famous without a hero, actually scared you like this, are you worthy of being called a Shu person! ”

Under the emotion, a terrifying power burst out from the young general's body, and he rushed straight at the scribe.

Li Hongtu stepped forward and blocked in front of the scribe, and under the flow of qi, the power of the young general also broke out on his body, directly dispersing the power of the young general.

"Soaring, don't be rude." Li Hongtu said to the young general: "What Xiao Ming said is not unreasonable. ”

Long Aotian gritted his teeth and knelt on one knee. He clasped his fists at Li Hongtu and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is unwilling!" Qi people killed my compatriots and trampled on the great rivers and mountains of Dayong. If you just let him go, wouldn't it chill my people? ”

Li Hongtu was silent for a long time, and said in a loud voice: "General Feilong listens to the order!" ”

"The minister is here!"

Hearing Li Hongtu's order, Long Aotian hurriedly lowered his head.

"Alone, you lead the army and horses of your headquarters to pursue the Qi army, don't go deep alone, and withdraw immediately if you encounter an ambush!"

"No!"

Long Aotian clenched his fists again, then got up and left, not forgetting to glare fiercely at the scribe who was called Xiao Ming by Li Hongtu as he left.

After Long Aotian left, Li Hongtu said to one of his subordinates beside him: "You, go and pass on the lonely message to General Qi Shen and teach him to attack with General Feilong." ”

"No!"

The Nayong warrior received the order and trotted out of the city.

"In this way, even if Yang Zhiyong really has an ambush, with Qi Shen here, nothing must happen."

Li Hongtu smiled: "After all, it is a rare Grandmaster Realm in a hundred years. ”

Xiao Ming shook his head: "Your Majesty, you are too used to Long Aotian. ”

"The Long family and Gu Youen, when Gu returned from Qi State, if it weren't for the support of the Long family and your Zhuge family, it may not be possible for Gu to sit on this throne."

Xiao Ming frowned and said: "Now the Long family is the dominant family in Dayong, and almost all the children of the Long family are arrogant on weekdays, and these are largely because of the king's connivance with them. Your Majesty, if this goes on for a long time, I am afraid that something will happen. ”

Li Hongtu glanced at Xiao Ming: "The Long family is dominant, it's not because your Zhuge family doesn't care about the world. Originally, the two families had a good balance and balance, but the Zhuge family suddenly came to retreat, how could the Long family not be strong without an opponent. ”

Xiao Ming smiled bitterly.

Li Hongtu glanced at him again, and saw that his face began to turn pale again, so he said, "You come with Gu." ”

After that, Li Hongtu took the lead in leaving, and Xiao Ming followed behind him, and the two walked down the city wall of Yudu and walked towards the Yongwang Palace.

"You already have an old illness, and these days you have worked hard to deal with the offensive of the Qi army, and the Qi country has withdrawn, so you will recuperate in this palace for a few days." Li Hongtu, who had his back to Xiao Ming, said.

Xiao Ming smiled helplessly: "Your Majesty, it's not that the minister doesn't want to rest, in fact, the next time is really busy." ”

Li Hongtu paused, turned around and looked at this military advisor who had been giving advice to him since childhood, frowned and said, "What do you mean? ”

Xiao Ming made another move, but was stopped by Li Hongtu, and then heard Li Hongtu say: "Xiao Ming, don't think that you don't dare to beat you because you are weak and lonely, and then salute Lone in the future, be careful that Lone lets you taste the taste of my white horse." ”

"No."

Xiao Ming had no choice but to nod, and then said: "The king thinks, why did Yang Zhiyong suddenly withdraw his troops? ”
