Half a month later, Zhao Hui and Dian Wei entered western Liaoning.

Xu Huang's warship had also arrived at the port in western Liaoning.

It's always been closed and so remote that the average person hardly comes here.

There are also many secret sentinels set up around the perimeter to prevent people from approaching and exploring.

Liaodong, Gongsun Yuan and Gongsun Gong, the two uncles and nephews, feel very bad.

Because after Zhao Hui's army arrived in Liaoxi, it lost its trace.

They didn't know where Zhao Hui was now.

Especially Gongsun Gong, I feel the same as a few years ago.

Will Zhao Hui's army suddenly appear under Liaodong Cheng again?

"Investigate again, if you can't find out the movements of Zhao Hui's army, you can all bring me up to see you." Gongsun Gong scolded the scout in front of him.

It's been ten days.

Ten days have passed since Zhao Hui arrived in Liaoxi.

But in the past ten days, he has not received any news about Zhao Hui.

Zhao Hui's army, is it still in Liaoxi, or has it secretly arrived in Liaodong?

Gongsun Gong didn't know at all, like a blind man, his eyes were black.

If it is two hundred people, it is understandable that he can't be found, after all, if you drill into the mountains and forests, there will be no trace, even if you send thousands of people, it will be difficult to find.

But now it is an army of 20,000, so obvious, such a big movement, and none of the more than 100 scouts sent out have found any traces.

Gongsun Gong only thinks that these scouts are not attentive and derelict in their duties.

Otherwise, how could it not be discovered.

From western Liaoning to eastern Liaoning, there are only a few roads that can be taken, and the roads are rugged and difficult to walk.

Even Zhao Hui's army did not take these roads, but entered the mountains and forests.

Won't 20,000 people eat, drink, and Lazar leave a trace?

Did 20,000 people not make a fire for ten days?

It's okay to not light a fire for two days, and it's okay not to light a fire for three days.

Ten days, how is that possible?

Not to mention attacking Liaodong, if you don't make a fire for ten days, most of Zhao Hui's 20,000 troops will definitely have various problems in their bodies.

As long as you light a fire, you will be able to find it day or night.

Gongsun Gong was very angry, he wanted to take the scout and set off by himself.

"Add three more teams of scouts to expand the search area."

But even if Gongsun Gong sent more scouts, but he was investigating in the wrong direction, how could he find out the whereabouts of Zhao Hui's army.

Gongsun Gong's scouts were all distributed in the area of Liaodong and Liaoxi.

But at this time, in the port of western Liaoning, fifty warships had set sail.

They will bypass Changli County and go directly to Pingguo City in the southern part of Liaodong County.

When Gongsun Yuan and Gongsun Gong were still looking for traces of Zhao Hui, Zhao Hui's army of 50,000 had already landed in the south of Liaodong County.

However, because most of the soldiers were also on a warship for the first time, many of them were also very tired after ten days at sea.

Zhao Hui did not rush to attack, but rested for three days in the camp that had been built.

Let those seasick soldiers be able to recover as soon as possible.

At the same time, scouts were dispatched to begin to investigate the situation around Liaodong.

Gongsun Yuan Gongsun Gong did not let the army enter Changli County, and part of the 100,000 troops in their hands were stationed on the border between Changli and Liaodong.

There is also a part of it that is now in Liaodong City.

Now I don't know where Zhao Hui's army is, and Gongsun Gong doesn't know where to send the army.

Zhao Hui's scouts have already been inquired. There were 50,000 enemy troops in the city of Liaodong.

This number may not be very accurate, but the error is not too much.

When the strength of the two sides is about the same, it is still very difficult for Zhao Hui to attack Liaodong head-on.

If Zhao Hui failed to break through Liaodong City in the first place, then Gongsun Yuan would let the army stationed outside quickly support him.

At that time, Zhao Hui may not only fail to recover Liaodong, but will also be defeated.

Zhao Hui only had one chance, and if he failed to break through Liaodong, it would be even more difficult to recover Liaodong this time.

But when he came again, Zhao Hui was ready.

He hadn't fought such a siege for a long time.

When he confronted Yuan Shao at the beginning, if Yuan Shao also held on to the city wall, Zhao Hui might have to spend another year or two if he wanted to defeat Yuan Shao.

However, Yuan Shao at that time did not fight before, and he did not think that he would lose to Zhao Hui. Naturally, he will not stay in the city, weakening his prestige.

Three days later.

50,000 soldiers were in high spirits.

They believe in Zhao Hui, they worship Zhao Hui, as long as they follow Zhao Hui, they think they will be able to win the battle.

Don't say that there are only 50,000 soldiers in Liaodong City, and the number is comparable to them.

Even if Zhao Hui told them that there were 100,000 enemy troops in the city, they would not hesitate to follow Zhao Hui to attack.

"Are the siege trucks and catapults ready?" Zhao Hui asked.

"It's all set." Wu has a way of wealth.

Two siege engines and ten catapults, this time they were all transported with the warship.

With these two sharp weapons in hand, Zhao Hui had the self-confidence to forcibly break through every city of the Han Dynasty.

In addition to siege engines and catapults, there were also countless arrows.

From Pingguo to Liaodong City, there are almost more than 300 miles.

For more than 300 miles, it is difficult not to be discovered.

Before, it was by sea, so Gongsun Gong's scouts couldn't find it.

But now in Liaodong, not to mention Gongsun Gong's scouts, even ordinary people in Liaodong will inadvertently see Zhao Hui's army.

50,000 people, plus all kinds of supplies, the movement on the road is obvious.

Especially when burying the pot to make rice, countless cooking smoke can be seen dozens of miles away.

Although it is difficult to hide, Zhao Hui still tries his best to reduce the movement, and the cooking smoke is also controlled, so as not to produce thick smoke, and it is only when the sky is bright that the fire is lit for cooking.

For more than 300 miles, the army still has to walk for five days.

On the first day, I walked sixty miles. There were no surprises along the way.

Except for a winding mountain road, there is not a single place on the road for more than 60 miles.

Liaodong is already vast and sparsely populated, even if the five counties of Liaodong are now full of one million people, but Liaodong County is only more than 200,000 people.

And in Liaodong City, there are 100,000 people.

The remaining 100,000 are scattered in the surrounding towns.

As for the villages, there are only a few of them.

In Liaodong, the villages outside the city are still too dangerous.

When I go to bed every night, no one can guarantee whether I will wake up tomorrow.

The environment outside the city is even harsher, in addition to fierce beasts and snowstorms, there are also thieves and horse thieves. and the Karasuma people and Goguryeo people who may appear suddenly.

People who have the conditions have already moved into the city to live.

Many villages disappeared overnight.

Then it was a long time before it was discovered.

Even for years, they were gone.

The next day, still a peaceful day, the road today was a little better than yesterday's, and the army advanced eighty miles.

It is only more than 100 miles away from Liaodong City.

If it goes well, in two more days, Zhao Hui's army will appear under Liaodong City.
