Li Huiyi's eyes rolled slightly, and the expression on his face was erratic, as if he couldn't figure out the reason.

Oh, by the way, didn't there be a message from Cao Cao at that time, saying that there was a similar tomb robber army that was completely wiped out, would there be any clues.

Well.

But everyone is dead, if you want to investigate, you can't start at all, and the specific location can't be known, what happened to Cao Cao should be clear, but what's the use, you can't ask him.

Li bai?

What he should know.

However, with his uncertain personality, it may be very difficult to ask something useful.

So where else to start?

Qin Shi Huang!

Yes, according to the information obtained so far, it is inextricably linked to him, or the truth can be obtained from his tomb.

Li Huiyi recalled hard in his mind, and according to his memory, he knew that the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang was probably located near Chang'an and other places, and he couldn't help but increase the desire to take over the subordinates.

When the sun went down, Li Huiyi returned to his residence, bathed and changed clothes, found Guo Jia and Dian Wei, and the three of them prepared to have a drink.

At the dinner table, Li Huiyi suddenly asked, "Fengxiao, do you remember the time when you were kidnapped?" ”

"Hahaha." Guo Jia smiled: "I know, no, this big guy, he was very rude at the time, and Jia almost lost his life." ”

"Go, go, go." Dian Wei waved his hand and said: "If you are not rude, you still don't know that you are with Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, who was beaten by the lord, then you are so happy now." ”

Li Huiyi didn't care about Dian Wei's words, but asked inexplicably: "Fengxiao, do you remember what you thought at that time?" ”

The puzzling words of "this ......" made Guo Jia confused for a while, and said after a moment's relief: "At that time, it seemed that I wanted to vote for Yuan Shao, but when I saw the general, I had an inexplicable feeling in my heart. ”

"Inexplicable feelings?" Li Huiyi was overjoyed and continued to ask, "Can you describe it carefully?" ”

Seeing that Li Huiyi was so serious, Guo Jia knew that something must be wrong, so he paused to recall it carefully, and then replied: "It's just that there is a sense of following, but I can control it independently." ”

No wonder, it seems that my guess is right, behind this invisibility, there is a big hand to manipulate and let myself through the early difficulties, it seems that I deliberately let myself grow.

Then growing up by yourself must be good for them, and there is no free help in the world.

"General, what's wrong with you?" Guo Jia's words interrupted Li Huiyi from his contemplation.

"No, just thinking about the war." Li Huiyi said perfunctorily and asked casually: "Fengxiao, do you say that Gaoshun's attack will go smoothly?" ”

Guo Jia did not doubt him, and replied with a smile: "Guandu involves most of Cao Cao's troops, Gao Shun and they should be able to take it easily, don't worry about the general." ”

Guo Jia's words are really good, Gao Shun has nearly 40,000 soldiers and horses, and Tian Feng's think tank helps, so there is no problem in attack and defense.

And against them, it was Xia Houyuan and Cheng Yu, who were also equal, but there were not many soldiers and horses, only about 20,000, so they could only defend passively.

Gao Shun received the news from Li Huiyi's flying pigeon, immediately discussed with Tian Feng, and then made a decision to launch a surprise attack while Xia Houyuan and others had not received the news.

As expected, Xia Houyuan didn't expect that after maintaining calm for months, Gao Shun would suddenly attack and break it, and he was unprepared for a while.

Gao Shun's surprise attack was successful, and he was unforgiving, pressing step by step, besieging Xia Houyuan in Huaixian County, and leading the army to attack.

As the sun set, under Huaixian County, the corpses of soldiers on both sides were poured horizontally, and there was dirty blood slowly converging into a small stream, flowing to the moat on the side, dyeing the river water dark red.

Such a disgusting scene, needless to say, also know the fierce cruelty of the war just now.

Li Junshuai, Gao Shun and Tian Feng were eating and discussing plans to break the city.

I only heard Gao Shun complain a little helplessly: "Sir, this Xia Houyuan is really tough, with so many casualties, he even gritted his teeth and insisted, he is a difficult opponent." ”

After a few days of strong attack, Gao Shun's troops lost nearly 10,000, and Xia Houyuan also lost more than 10,000, more than half.

Tian Feng touched his chin and said: "Yes, this Huaixian County is high, Xia Houyuan and Cheng Yu are not idle, I'm afraid they won't be able to attack it for a while." ”

"But don't worry, how many people can Cao Jun have, hold on for another three or four days at most, if the news of Guandu comes, I'm afraid it will retreat by itself."

"Hmm." Hearing Tian Feng's analysis, Gao Shun nodded slowly and said, "I hope so, take it early, and you can rest assured." ”

Tian Feng's intention is to be steady and steady, so he doesn't want to use the plan, because if he uses the plan, there is a risk of being recognized, and there is an instability factor.

In Huaixian County, Xia Houyuan lost a lot of weight after several days of bloody battles, his face was also sloppy, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was obviously overtired.

Huaixian can still defend it, this is all because Xia Houyuan has stabilized the army's heart with his own body, otherwise the army would have collapsed.

But now there are fewer and fewer soldiers and horses, and even if Xia Houyuan has the power to reach the sky, he can't force the storm.

Looking at Cheng Yu, who had been pondering for a long time with his eyes closed, Xia Houyuan asked urgently: "Sir, is there a way to exhaust the army, right?" ”

"There is a way, I'm afraid the general won't use it." Cheng Yu slowly opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with a hint of indifference.

If Huai County is lost, then the entire Hanoi will be occupied by Gao Shun, and then Zhong Xuan of Chang'an will be caught in two sides.

The loss of Xiliang has spread to all the generals of the Cao army, but it is still in a state of concealment from the soldiers, after all, announcing it at this time will shake the morale of the army.

As soon as he heard that there was a way, Xia Houyuan asked anxiously: "Sir, when is it, as long as there is a way, how can I not use it." ”

"Okay." Cheng Yu's eyes narrowed, and he said slowly: "This Huai County has a population of seventy or eighty thousand, if you let them help defend the city, there is more than half a chance that they will defend the city." ”

Coupled with the fact that the people of the whole city are stubbornly defending, there is only half a chance, Xia Houyuan hesitated for a while, and it is his duty to die in battle, but the people, for them, this is a disaster.

The suggestion has been made, as for whether Xia Houyuan will use it or not, it is none of Cheng Yu's business, after all, the coach is him.

Just when Xia Houyuan was about to reluctantly agree, a soldier suddenly hurriedly broke in. "Report! The prime minister is in a hurry! ”

The two of them were shocked and stood up one after another, Xia Houyuan quickly stepped forward and took the bamboo tube in the soldier's hand, opened it and took out the letter and looked at it.

After a while, Xia Houyuan handed the letter to Cheng Yu with an ugly face, and walked back to his position without saying a word.

Seeing this situation, Cheng Yu knew that he couldn't do it, and quickly took it and took a closer look.

"Let's go down." After a glance, Cheng Yu waved away the soldiers, looked at Xia Houyuan and asked, "Guandu has been defeated, I'm afraid that the land of Sili Yizhou will be difficult to defend." ”

"The prime minister also expected it, let me and others choose for themselves, what does the general think?"
