Yuwen Chengdu's voice still didn't have the slightest emotion: "Fighting, or not fighting, it's all in my hands." If Xiao Yushi has any dissatisfaction, he can act on his own. ”

The implication is that the army can be assigned to Xiao Huaijing, provided that he is the commander.

Xiao Huaijing's brows condensed into pimples, and he said with a smile: "Does General Yuwen think that I am a person who talks on paper?" ”

"Hmph." Yuwen Chengdu stopped talking, and said to his generals: "Regardless of soldiers or food, Xiao Yushi's life is my life." ”

Although Xiao Huaijing was born as a civilian official, his skills were not as good, and he read several military books when he was young, and he was both civil and military.

Hearing Yuwen Chengdu say this, he was extremely angry in his heart, and sneered: "Does General Yuwen think that I don't have the ability to lead troops in battle?" ”

"Nope." Yuwen Chengdu took out the tiger talisman on his waist and threw it to Xiao Huaijing.

Xiao Huaijing took the tiger talisman and wanted to calm the chaos by herself, so as to show her ability.

After the chaos was settled, Xiao Huaijing disgusted Yuwen Chengdu.

After going up to the city wall to observe, Xiao Huaijing's eyes fell on a small county town west of Huoyi City, and called a general named Wang Ling.

"What is that place?"

Wang Lingxiang smiled and said, "Lord Yushi, that place is called Father's Shang County. ”

Xiao Huaijing had an idea in his heart, although Fathershang County is a small county town, but the height of the city wall is faintly three feet higher than Huoyi City, if the trebuchet is placed in Fathershang County, it means that when the two sides fight in the plain in the future, they can obtain air supremacy and crush the Li family's army.

Thinking of this, Xiao Huaijing was overjoyed, went straight down the city wall, went around the back door, and came to Fathershang County pretending to be a pedestrian.

When I came to Fathershang County, although Fathershang County was occupied by the Li family's army, the Li family's army did not attach much importance to this county, and only a thousand troops were guarding here.

With excitement, Xiao Huaijing returned to Huoyi City, mobilized 10,000 horses with the tiger talisman, and ordered to prepare for the camp at night.

Xia Yu was idle and lying on the bed looking at the military topographic map, and felt more and more that Huoyi City was a rare and good place.

It just so happened that Li Jiancheng came to visit him, and he did not hide it, and informed Li Jiancheng of his discovery.

Pulling open the window and looking at Huoyi City in the distance, Li Jiancheng was overjoyed, what Xia Yu said was indeed right, this place has not been valued by the two armies, in fact, the strategic location is very important.

After chatting with Xia Yu in a hurry, Li Jiancheng ordered the army to move there, put in the Li family army of 8,000 people, and strictly defend it, and at the same time lay all the trebuchets on the city wall of Fathershang County.

In the dark night, Xiao Huaijing rushed to Fathershang County with an army of 10,000 people with high morale, hundreds of trebuchets threw boulders from high altitudes, and the stones in the sky roared, falling from the sky like meteorites.

Before the troops at the forefront could react, they were hit by boulders, and some of them were directly flattened, and all their bones were shattered.

According to what Xia Yu showed to Li Jiancheng at that time, an ambush had already been laid outside the city, and the Li family army, holding torches, covered from the two wings of the Sui army, and the back road was cut off, and it was found that it was surrounded by heavy surrounding.

In less than two hours, the team of 10,000 people was killed to only 3,000 people, and under the protection of Wang Ling, Xiao Huaijing barely escaped and entered Huoyi City.

Yuwen Chengdu never expected that because of the battle with Xia Yu two days ago, he forgot to deploy troops in his father's county for a while, which made the enemy take advantage of it.

also deserved Xiao Huaijing's bad luck, he didn't let the military academy explore the way in advance, and rushed to his father's county like a ghost, but it turned out to be good, and he buried 7,000 Sui troops for nothing!

After Xiao Huaijing came back, her face was dull, and she was so angry that she pointed at Yuwen Chengdu's nose and scolded: "General Yuwen, you did it on purpose, right?" ”

Yuwen Chengdu was too lazy to distinguish with Xiao Huaijing, so he turned around and left.

Li Jiancheng heard that as soon as he occupied his father's county, he killed 7,000 Sui troops, and he was so excited that he praised Xia Yu's resourcefulness, even if he was injured, he could make the enemy suffer a big loss.

After Xia Yu heard what had happened, he immediately said: "I'm afraid that Yang Guang is not worried about Yuwen Chengdu, so he sent another official to supervise the army." ”

Li Jiancheng was stunned: "General Xia, how do you know this?" ”

I didn't believe it in my heart, so I called a military academy to investigate, and sure enough, it was so.

The admiration for Xia Yu weighed three points.

Xia Yu took out a pen, marked it on the military topographic map, and pointed it out to Li Jiancheng: "Brother Li, you see, after occupying Fathershang County, it is like a dog's tooth cutting into the enemy's front line, and the enemy will inevitably launch an extremely crazy attack. In this way, the enemy will be led by our nose. ”

Xia Yu concluded: "In this way, we can make the enemy suffer a small loss. ”

"High, it's really high!"

Li Jiancheng gave a thumbs up, and understood why Xia Yu was there, Li Shimin only needed to plan the general direction, and the rest only needed to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

After Li Jiancheng left, Xia Yu took out the fire that was rewarded by the reader and stuffed it into his mouth.

Huoane powder is made by crushing the bones of the fire ane rat, which can completely remove the cold true qi from the body.

Yuwen Chengdu expected that Xia Yu would lie in bed for at least a month, Xia Yu just wanted to give him a surprise, if nothing else, he would be cured in two more days.

The fire dissipates into the body, scurrying uncontrollably within the meridians.

Xia Yu endured a huge pain, as if there were countless blunt knives cutting his body, and even his bones were shattered into powder.

The teeth were clenched, blood oozed from between the teeth, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down his forehead and gathered into a stream.

Xia Yu endured it and didn't say a word.

At this time, Li Yuanba came to Xia Yu's military tent, he came to investigate the news, and he was afraid that Xia Yu would know some kind of news that was unfavorable to him.

In the dim military tent, Li Yuanba saw Xia Yu curled up in a ball on the bed, with his back to him, his whole body trembling slightly, as if he was suffering great pain.

"General Xia, what's wrong with you?"

Xia Yu's body was repairing painfully and slowly, and he had no time to answer Li Yuanba's words.

The sound of the sword unsheathed with a clatter.

A fierce murderous aura locked Xia Yu's back.

Li Yuanba tiptoed close to Xia Yu, taking advantage of his illness to kill him, and he must not miss this opportunity.

Xia Yu was alert, the killer the night before was instigated by Li Yuanba, and now he came to kill him in person.

Pretending to be nothing, Xia Yu turned over and smiled indifferently: "General Li, why are you here?" ”

Li Yuanba was startled when he saw Xia Yu suddenly turn around, quickly hid his sword behind his back, and said with a smirk: "I heard that General Xia was assassinated and was seriously injured, I don't worry, so I'll take a look." ”
