At this time, Liu Yi also ran over, and after seeing Yuan Xi, he was also shocked.

"Haha, two generals, don't you invite Xi in and sit?" Yuan Xi looked at the stunned two people and asked with a smile.

Liu Yi immediately reacted, and hurriedly said, "Master Hou, please"

"Okay" Yuan Xi nodded, stepped in, looked at the food placed on the stone table, and said, "Are you eating?" ”

"Yes," Liu Yi nodded hurriedly.

"Then I don't mind being together, Xi didn't eat either," Yuan Xi said gently.

Liu Yi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Of course it's no problem, Wu Ping is going to go to a few dishes and chopsticks, and take out all the wines,"

"No!"

When the four of them sat down separately, Yuan Xi looked at Liu Yi and said: "General Liu, Xi knows you very well, to be honest, this battle Xi won very lucky, if it weren't for Gongsun Kang's problem, the general would not have failed so easily."

Liu Yi smiled bitterly, "For the general, be loyal to the Lord, and act according to orders, this is as it should be, as for the final outcome, no one can count"

"Haha, that's a good point, General Liu is really a loyal and righteous person, at this time, he will not damage the old master, and he is locking you here, that is Xizhi, is the general willing to go back to Liaoxi" Yuan Xi asked with a smile.

Liu Yi's pupils shrank, and he immediately hugged his fists and said, "Yi is willing to go back"

"Are there any special requirements?" Yuan Xi asked deliberately.

"No, I just want to be able to meet my family," Liu Yi said with nostalgia.

Yuan Xi smiled, gently picked up the wine glass on the table, and said: "In this case, that cup will be practiced by Xi for you, and after you go back, accompany your family and let them feel at ease."

"Master Xie," Liu Yi and Qi Tao immediately raised their glasses and stood up gratefully.

After Yuan Xi drank this cup with a smile and the two of them, he said, "Military Master, then let's go back!" The two generals are probably also like arrows, let them clean up a little"

Li Ru was stunned, Liu Yi and Qi Tao were also shocked, this is the end, isn't Yuan Xi here to recover them.

Yuan Xi looked at the unexpected three people, suddenly became serious, and said: "Don't misunderstand the two generals, Xi loves you as his life, and naturally he will not let you go, but Xi does not allow anyone to slander Xi's generals and return to the master, go back and have a good rest, all the Taishou from all over the country will personally visit the door and invite you to come out of the mountain again with heavy gifts, this is Xi's respect for you, and it is also the respect you should enjoy."

After finishing speaking, after patting the shoulders of the two with a smile, he left slowly with Li Ru with admiration on his face.

Liu Yi and Qi Tao came to their senses at this time, glanced at each other, and immediately turned their heads to look at Yuan Xi's back gratefully, and said in unison: "Thank you, Master Hou"

Yuan Xi smiled slightly, and gradually disappeared.

In the carriage of the Assassin Mansion, Li Ru admired: "Hou Ye is wise, so not only can the two generals surrender to Hou Ye willingly, but also set off a wave of Hou Ye's love, cherishment, and respect for talents in the entire Liaodong, so that those Liaodong old ministers can rest assured one by one."

"Haha, military advisor, do you think this is Xi's credit" Yuan Xi asked rhetorically.

"Of course," Li Ru affirmed.

Yuan Xi shook his head and said with a serious expression: "Actually, they have already surrendered, and Xi's words just add fuel to the fire."

A trace of surprise flashed in Li Ru's eyes, and he said, "Master Hou, how do you know?"

"Feel!" Yuan Xi smiled faintly, the depths of his eyes flashed with golden light, and it was obvious that he had already used the key of the hidden dragon to penetrate the loyalty of the two.

"Feeling" Li Ru was surprised, and there were many doubts in his heart, how could this be felt, people's hearts are the most difficult to figure out, but looking at Yuan Xi who didn't want to say it, he didn't ask much, anyway, the result was right, just do it.

"By the way, where are the nearly 20,000 Goguryeo soldiers now?" Yuan Xi suddenly asked with concern.

"Most of them are imprisoned in Liaosui City, waiting to be released," Li Ru replied immediately.

Yuan Xi smiled coldly, "Even a Goguryeo dare to come to the Han Dynasty to be presumptuous"

"It is estimated that it was also forced by Gongsun Du, Liaodong is adjacent to Goguryeo, such a small country, naturally dare not resist," Li Ru explained.

"Strategist, how many soldiers and horses are there in Goguryeo at present?" Yuan Xi asked.

"Judging from the past situation, it is definitely no more than 20,000, and the area of Goguryeo seems to be a lot, but the land is vast and sparsely populated, and this time the troops are estimated to be half of the dynasty's troops," Li Ru replied disdainfully.

Yuan Xi's eyes flashed, it seems that the country that was so loud in the future is still very unbearable, this is really a godsend!

"Immediately send a messenger who can speak the Tao, Xi needs the king of Dongchuan to give Ben Hou an explanation" Yuan Xi said suddenly coldly.

After Li Ru raised his eyebrows, he smiled and said: "Hou Ye wants to accept Goguryeo"

"Haha, those who know me are also my military division, but not so fast, now the purpose of the army is to recover the three counties, but Goguryeo sent troops without authorization, helped Gongsun Du, and harmed my people and soldiers, shouldn't he compensate for it? I don't want much, just pay 40,000 gold in compensation, and if I don't have one gold, I will send troops to destroy him Goguryeo, and I will not show mercy" Yuan Xi said coldly.

When Li Ru heard this, he suddenly smiled coldly and said, "Master Hou, 40,000 gold is too little, and it is doubling it with a cold look."

"Eighty thousand gold" Yuan Xi was surprised.

"Hou Ye rest assured, a dynasty that has accumulated a hundred years, 80,000 gold can definitely be taken out, it really can't be done, just let them collect more taxes, he Goguryeo is in chaos, and it has nothing to do with my Han, and this kind of negotiation is originally a sky-high price, so you can bargain on the ground" Li Ru smiled.

"Haha, the military advisor is wise, but pay attention to secrecy, if it is known by some literati, it is estimated that some people will say that Xi is cruel and does not apply the way of benevolence and righteousness" Yuan Xi said.

"Hou Ye rest assured, those are all the remarks of some pedantic scholars, what is the way of benevolence and righteousness, the royal road is the true way, no matter what the way is, you must give in to the royal way, if someone wants to use the way of benevolence and righteousness to restrict Hou Ye's policy towards foreign races, Hou Ye does not have to worry about it at all, at most there will be another book burning pit Confucianism, there can only be one voice in this world, then Hou Ye's voice, any violation of this, it will be death" Li Ru said coldly, with a hint of fanaticism in his eyes.

Yuan Xi nodded with great satisfaction, worthy of being his Heavenly Destiny Mastermind, and said, "Arrange for someone to go over as soon as possible."

"No!" Li Ru replied respectfully.

After the two of them just returned to the Thorn History Mansion, they saw that suddenly Liu Quan ran over in a hurry and said to Yuan Xi: "Master Hou, it's not good, something happened in the backyard, go and take a look?" ”

"What's wrong," Yuan Xi frowned.

Liu Quan immediately came to Yuan Xi's side and whispered in his ear.

"Presumptuous" After Yuan Xi heard this, he suddenly showed a trace of anger on his face, and said: "Strategist, you go to Zipei first, Shiyuan and them"

"No!" Li Ru immediately turned around and left, the matter in the backyard should be a matter between ladies, he didn't dare to care, and he didn't want to care.
