Chapter 54: The Meeting
"General, are we really going to leave like this?"
Le Cheng's henchmen beside him, looking at Le Cheng who was full of resentment, said a little unwillingly.
These henchmen have long been tied to the Lejia family, sharing honor and disgrace.
Before King Yan raised his army, the two brothers of Lejian strongly opposed it, which made King Yan unhappy.
Even if Lecheng was the deputy general, it was also the Yan Guo Doctor who tried his best to admonish him, so he barely obtained it.
If Lecheng hangs the seal and leaves at this time, and Yan Guo wins a big victory in the end, Lejia will really have no place in Yan Kingdom.
When Le Cheng heard this, he suddenly stopped, and the angry expression on his face disappeared without a trace.
He turned his head to look at his henchman and said in a deep voice: "If you don't leave at this time, do you want to stay and wait for death?" ”
The henchman was shocked when he heard this, and he lost his voice: "Could it be that someone wants to harm the general?" ”
Lecheng shook his head.
At this time, Le Cheng couldn't help but recall what his brother Le Jian said before the expedition.
"If the Zhao State holds the city to the death, every inch of land will be contested, although the Yan State is very difficult in this battle, it is not impossible to win."
"If the Yan State wins successive battles, and the soldiers of the Zhao State are vulnerable, this must be a plan for the Zhao State to lure the enemy."
"If the king and chestnut belly fail to act cautiously, they will be defeated!"
For his brother's talent, Le Cheng is convinced.
He even felt that if Lejian was given enough space to play, his future achievements would not be as bad as his father Le Yi.
At the beginning, Le Cheng saw that Qing Qin got Daijun without much effort, and he was already vigilant in his heart.
He repeatedly advised Qing Qin to be cautious, but Qing Qin was confused by Zhao Guo's general, and there was a gap between the two, so he couldn't listen to Lecheng's words at all.
Fortunately, the chestnut belly was blocked under Guyi City at that time, and he couldn't enter an inch for half a month, which made Le Cheng relieved.
Unexpectedly, only half a month had passed, and Chestnut not only easily took Gu Yi, but even drove straight into capture the entire Zhongshan.
At this time, Lecheng remembered his brother's words, and finally felt a little frightened.
Although the rout of the Zhao State seems reasonable, with Lecheng's understanding of the Zhao State, it is impossible for the rout to be so fast.
Le Cheng didn't think about reminding King Yan, but Le Cheng sent several letters one after another, all of which were like mud cows entering the sea, without the slightest news.
During this time, Lecheng was also carefully observing the movements of Daijun.
He found that although the county seemed to be obtained by the Yan army, it was actually in crisis, and if those Zhao generals defected, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Le Cheng originally held on to the last hope and advised Qing Qin to use thunderous means to sweep away hidden dangers.
Unexpectedly, Qing Qin disappointed Lecheng again.
Thinking of what Le Jian said before leaving, and thinking of the inextricable relationship between Le and Zhao Guo, Le Cheng finally decided to get out of this whirlpool temporarily.
Le Cheng looked so reckless just now, but he didn't do it on purpose, in order to provoke Qing Qin and then leave.
"Gather the tribe and prepare to leave Daijun and return to Yan Kingdom."
Lecheng did not explain in detail, but only conveyed the order in a soft voice.
In the mountains and forests.
Li Mu, who was wearing an Orion costume, looked at the news sent by the county guard, and finally showed a smile on his haggard face.
During this time, almost everything that happened in Daijun was planned by Li Mu.
Merely.
Except for a very few people, no one knew that there was actually Li Mu, the mastermind behind the scenes.
"The time has come, you take a certain seal letter and go to the north to recruit 50,000 elites."
When the cronies heard this, they said with some hesitation: "The 50,000 elites in northern Xinjiang still need to guard against the Huns, if all of them are transferred at this time, if the Huns come to attack, what should they do?" ”
Li Mu said with a smile: "Didn't the general give me the 50,000 old and weak, haven't you already made a detour to the northern frontier?" ”
"Let these 50,000 old and weak people put up more flags and treat them as suspicious soldiers, I think they can confuse the Huns in a short time."
"As for the 200,000 Yan army of Daijun, it won't be long before it will be wiped out, and then let these 50,000 elites return to northern Xinjiang."
After sending off his cronies, Li Mu selected more than 100 strong and roared away.
On the official road, Le Cheng took Le's children and henchmen and rushed towards Yan Kingdom, and everyone was a little depressed.
"Stop!"
Everyone walked outside a forest, and Le Cheng's face suddenly changed slightly, and everyone stopped.
"General, what's wrong?"
Left and right asked with some confusion.
Lecheng didn't speak, but just looked at the forest from afar, and found that there were birds hovering on the woods, but they refused to fall for a long time, and his face became more and more serious.
"There is an ambush in the woods ahead, we will retreat!"
Le Cheng thought of those 'rogues' who were everywhere and attacked the Yan army, and immediately yelled at his subordinates.
"Prepare for battle, retreat in an orderly manner!"
The left and right were shocked when they heard the words, and shouted loudly.
The people who were originally depressed suddenly became very vigilant when they heard this, and quickly formed a battle formation.
"Hahahaha!"
Just when Lecheng and the others were vigilant and ready to evacuate this place, suddenly a loud laugh came from the woods.
"General Lecheng, if you really live up to your reputation, you actually know that there is an ambush in the forest!"
Li Mu, who was dressed in Orion's costume, strode out of the forest, his eyes full of smiles.
"Who are you?"
Seeing that there were only more than 100 strong people behind the other party, although he was still very vigilant in his heart, he was also very curious about the identity of the other party, and immediately asked.
Li Mu didn't speak, turned his head to his subordinates who were waiting for the battle, and shouted: "I admire General Lecheng for a long time, and today is to see off the general, not to fight. ”
"Wait, put away your weapons."
After finishing speaking, Li Mu threw away his weapon and walked in the direction of Lecheng empty-handed.
Seeing this, although he still did not let his guard down, he also signaled his subordinates to put away their weapons.
He also wanted to know what the person who suddenly appeared in front of him was coming from and what his plans were.
Li Mu walked leisurely in front of Lecheng, surrounded by Lecheng's subordinates, but without the slightest timidity.
He first saluted, and then said: "I came here this time for the sake of the general and the fate of the Le's family, if the general can be trusted, he might as well talk about it alone!" ”
When Le Cheng heard this, his pupils contracted suddenly.
Although he managed to get out, after this battle, no matter what the victory or defeat of Yan Guo was, Le's would not be better.
If Yan Guo wins, Chestnut Belly and Qing Qin will inevitably gain power, and King Yan will no longer use the Le brothers.
If the Yan Kingdom is defeated, even if the Yan King regrets wanting to use the Le brothers, the Yan Kingdom after the defeat will also lose the capital to compete for the world, and will even become a small country at the bottom.
At that time, even if the Le brothers were valued by King Yan, what could they do?
Lecheng, who was worried about his future, heard Li Mu's words, his face kept changing, and then motioned for everyone to retreat.
Li Mu and Lecheng finally got along alone.
"In Xia Li Mu, I have seen General Lecheng."
When Li Mu announced his name, Le Cheng's face immediately changed slightly, and he stared at the person in front of him in disbelief.
