Wuwei County.

The big tent of the barracks, the fire is shining, and the crowds are crowded. The barracks, which should have been quiet, became lively, and the kitchen knives of the men picked up.

In the military tent, Li Bi and Leng Wushuang sat opposite each other by the brazier.

"Great, I didn't expect it to be you." Li Bi was as happy as a child.

"I haven't seen you for many years, but you kid is getting more and more powerful, and you dare to touch the ass of the Menghu people." Leng Wushuang rubbed his frozen purple hands and smiled.

"You are not bad, with so many people in the Suzhou battalion, you dare to block the 50,000 army of Menghu."

"It's a while to be able to delay it, I thought I could report the news in time, but I didn't expect it to be too late." Leng Wushuang sighed, he hurried to catch up, but he still fell behind.

"Hahaha, there has already been news from Chang'an Mansion, and now, the 40,000 allied troops of Luoyang Mansion and Yangzhou Mansion are on their way to Chang'an, Xiping has also been taken by General Li, and Dan Gongzi himself sits in Jincheng." Li Bi told Leng Wushuang about the general situation.

"That's great, I'm afraid we are unprepared, we have suffered a lot of such losses, if it weren't for the sudden attack of the Menghu people, our Suzhou battalion would not have suffered heavy losses." Leng Wushuang's eyes lost focus, and his face became ugly.

"By the way, what about General Huo...... Li Bi asked casually.

"General Huo personally descended the palace, whether he was alive or dead, I don't know ......"

Both were silent at the same time.

Long.

Li Bi got up.

"Let's go, let's eat first."

Leng Wushuang nodded, got up, and the two went to the city together.

……

In the dark night, on the avenue in the middle of the city, two people walked side by side.

Li Bi took Leng Wushuang to the upstairs of the stopper, which he passed by in the morning.

The small restaurant closed its doors and windows, and the lights were black.

"Someone, call out."

Li Bi waved his hand, and the guards stepped forward and hammered the door panel heavily.

After waiting for a while, there was a candle flame inside.

The door opened, and a lean old man in a padded jacket showed his head.

"A few people, oh my God, the shop hasn't opened yet." The old man squinted his eyes and said with a smile.

Li Bi didn't say much, just pushed it away and walked inside.

The old man was about to have a seizure, and when he saw that everyone came in military uniforms and knives, he couldn't help but be shocked, and secretly said that he was lucky.

"Masters, please please, I'll go and ask the cook to open the fire." The old man suddenly lost his sleepiness and greeted cautiously.

Li Bi and Leng Wushuang sat on the table next to them and nodded.

"Two more jars of good wine." Li Bi turned his head and said to the old man.

"Okay, Master Jun, wait a minute, I'll take it for you."

Leng Wushuang's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he still held back.

"You said the Menghu raid, what is the situation?" Li Bi asked.

"Menghu and Xianrong have been harassing my border, you know, my Ganzhou battalion is overwhelmed, and later I heard that the big cannibals conquered Tingzhou and occupied Qiuzi City, but there was no way, and they divided their troops to defend, which made the Menghu people take advantage of the loophole and raided our army's garrison when we changed our defenses......" Leng Wushuang said this, he couldn't help but be angry, thinking about it, and quite sad and helpless.

"What's going on with the Xianrong people?" Li Bi actually cares about the Xianrong people very much, and the Menghu people dare to raise 50,000 troops, so they are not worried about the fire in the backyard of the Xianrong people? It is very likely that the two have joined forces, so how the Xianrong people will act is very crucial.

"When the Xianrong people attacked Tingzhou in Dashi, they occupied Yunzhou, leaving Tingzhou isolated and helpless, unable to advance or retreat. Since the occupation of Yunzhou, we have completely lost the movement of enemy forces. ”

"In this way, the Xianrong people are cooperating with the big food." Li Bi said thoughtfully.

"It has to be." Leng Wushuang affirmed.

While the two were talking, the old man brought the wine and put it on the table.

"The two of you use it slowly, it's just ......," the old man said with a look of embarrassment.

"What? Say! Li Bi said loudly.

"Trouble Master Jun, can the movement be smaller, there are still a few guests living upstairs in our house." The old man said tremblingly, his eyes carefully observing the expressions of the two.

When Li Bi heard this, he glanced at Leng Wushuang.

"What guest?" Li Bi asked.

"It was said that the goods were taken from the original source." The old man thought for a moment and replied.

"When did you stay?"

"It's been a few days, I'm afraid it's been more than ten days."

Li Bi glanced at Leng Wushuang, and the two of them had a heart.

"What's your name? Is there a name book? Li Bi asked.

"Yes, yes, you wait." The old man heard that something was wrong, so he quickly took out the name book obediently and handed it to Li Bi.

Li Bi flipped over and looked at it with Leng Wushuang.

On the last page are written a few names.

"Mei Yi...... Jiang Er...... Lan San? Li Bi muttered to himself, the more he looked at it, the more strange it became, how could there be such a name, it was a pseudonym at first glance.

"And this, you see, it's called Meng can't ......" Leng Wushuang said pointing to a name.

Li Bi put together the name book and returned it to the old man.

"It's okay, it's okay, Ben will be careful, hurry up and serve the food, Ben will be hungry." Li Bi said loudly, and Yu Guang swept the second floor.

The old man was really fine, breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly urged the vegetables to go.

"Wushuang, what should I do?" Li Bi leaned on the table and asked quietly.

"Let's send someone to keep an eye on it first." Leng Wushuang said in a low voice.

Li Bi nodded, raised his chin at the guard, and the guard understood and ran out.

"The dish is here, Master Jun!" The old man personally served the food.

The wine and food are complete, and the two of them set off.

After drinking a few bowls, Leng Wushuang pressed Li Bi's arm.

"You and I are in the army, it's better to drink less." Leng Wushuang said seriously.

Li Bi paused and put down the wine bowl.

"You're still the same as a child. Everything is so serious. Although there is an order in the army not to drink alcohol, but then again, the generals are outside, and the king's orders are not subject to it. Li Bi joked.

"It's just that now I don't have the heart to drink, my brothers went before me, and General Huo's life and death are unknown...... Alas! Leng Wushuang let out a long sigh, and his eyes turned red in an instant.

Li Bi hurriedly put away his hippie smile.

"Don't worry, Wushuang, brotherly enmity, I, Li Bi, am duty-bound." Li Bi picked up a bowl of wine by himself and drank it all.

The two sat unconsciously until dawn. Leng Wushuang wanted to pay for the wine, but the old man refused to accept it, so he had no choice but to give up, and returned to the barracks with the drunk and confused Li Bi on his back.

The two walked away, and the old man suddenly put away his smiling face, closed the door, and walked into the back room.

A big man in a short coat, leather armor, and tiger leather boots was busy with an iron pot. Burning the fire next to the stove was a young man in a plain robe and a velvet cloak, reading a book while burning the fire, and two swords resting on the board.

"Okay, the person is gone, don't do it." The old man straightened up and said.

"Don't say it sooner, this is another pot." The big man muttered.

"Let's eat it ourselves." The old man laughed.

"Then I'll call Mei Yi." The young man winked mischievously.

The old man smiled and turned to leave.

Not long after, a table of four people moved their chopsticks.

The old man was now wearing a gray cotton coat, a robe, and a cotton hat. Next to the stool behind him, there is a small bookcase.

"Sir, I've finished reading your book." The young man handed the book to the old man.

The old man took it.

"This book is still interesting to listen to, and I will cheer you on next time."

"If it's fate, thank you." The old man laughed.

……

Across the stairs, the guard was hiding at the mouth of the alley and watching.

……

Barrack.

"Wushuang, how's it going? Is there any movement upstairs? ”

Li Bi, who had sobered up, shook his head and walked into Leng Wushuang's big tent and asked.

"Not yet." Leng Wushuang was packing his clothes.

"What do you say those people do? It can't be an enemy spy, right? Li Bi guessed.

"It's hard to say."

"By the way, when do you think we're leaving?" Li Bi asked, he received a secret letter from Chang Dan from Xiping, asking when he would withdraw.

"Withdraw?" Leng Wushuang stopped what he was doing and asked in surprise.

Li Bi was also stunned.

"That's right...... Or else? ”

The two stared at each other for a while.

"If you want to withdraw, you withdraw." Leng Wushuang suddenly said coldly.

"But I got a military order." Li Bi looked at Leng Wushuang and said.

"What if we withdraw? Isn't there still a coalition army? We might as well stay here, if the coalition forces win a big victory, we can cut off the enemy's retreat, if we fight hard head-on, we can attack on both sides, if we don't win head-on, even if we go back, it will be useless. Leng Wushuang said excitedly.

"I know, I know, Wushuang, you want to send someone to find General Huo......" Li Bi knew Leng Wushuang's thoughts, he was reluctant to give up his general, and wanted to stay here so as to find out the general's whereabouts.

Leng Wushuang was silent.

Li Bi thought for a while.

"I'll take the Yilong camp back, you stay here, what do you think? I'll deal with the young lord and the marshal. Li Bi said seriously.

Leng Wushuang looked at Li Bi, and at some point his heart softened, and he was a little moved for a while, and there was no one who knew him more than these close friends who grew up together and his comrades who had experienced life and death in the army.

He nodded.

"Although it is said that the general will be subject to the order of the foreign monarch, but I, Li Bi, have no choice in this matter, the marshal is kind to me, and I must protect the safety of my son, so I ......" Li Bi explained sadly, in fact, he knew that Leng Wushuang was right, right here, he could cut off the enemy's retreat, and he also wanted to stay with Leng Wushuang.

"Needless to say, you and my brother understand." Leng Wushuang stepped forward, patted Li Bi's shoulder, and smiled softly.

Li Bi frowned and smiled, and punched Leng Wushuang in the chest.

"Then I'll leave tomorrow, I'll leave it to you here, and I'll go upstairs with that one and check it out." Li Bi said.

"I know." Leng Wushuang nodded.

"I'll go back and prepare."

"Okay."

……

The next day, the sky was gray with a light snowfall.

South City Gate.

The renovated Yilong Battalion was in good spirits, and the soldiers were all red.

Leng Wushuang and Li Bi walked side by side outside the city.

"I didn't expect to meet just now, and we were separated in a hurry, which is really unpleasant." Li Bi sighed.

"The country is in trouble, men should fight, brotherhood, let's talk about it later."

The military flag hunting, the light snow is one after another, the long street sends you goodbye, and the willow is not spring.

"There will be a farewell for thousands of miles, so let's go here." Li Bi stopped and said to Leng Wushuang.

"Okay, take a few more steps to increase your sadness, then you take care all the way."

"Take care!"

The two of them parted, the army had already gone far away, and the rear team had just all left the city.

Li Bi waved goodbye, rode his horse and whipped, and prepared to set off.

"Remember our agreement?" Leng Wushuang remembered something and shouted at Li Bi's back.

Li Bi didn't look back, raised the horsewhip and shook it.

"Alive!"
