Baling, Guan Yu's residence.

At this time, Guan Yu was sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard, stroking his beard with one hand, and looking at it with the [Li Yizhi Theory] in the other. His expression was so focused that every time he looked at it, he would close his eyes and ponder for a moment before continuing to look at them. Yes, since Li Yi wrote this [Li Yizhi Treatise], Guan Yu completely abandoned [Spring and Autumn], because in his opinion, this [Li Yizhi Treatise] is what he needs most.

In fact, Guan Yu and even all the generals and officials under Li Yi's command have learned a lot from this book, whether it is governing the territory or arranging troops, compared to the books of [Spring and Autumn] that need to be comprehended by themselves, the simple and straightforward book of [Li Yizhi] is undoubtedly more friendly and useful to them.

Of course, this is not to say that [Li Yizhi's Treatise] is better than [Spring and Autumn], but because compared with other books, [Li Yizhi's Theory] is more like a textbook, a textbook that can be used from zero to the advanced stage.

Just as he was watching, there was a burst of laughter from outside, and after a while, Guan Yu saw Wei Yue pull Yang Xiu with a wry smile on his face.

Putting down the books a little helplessly, Guan Yu got up and greeted him with a smile, "Guangchao, what makes you so happy?" ”

"Haha, I just received a letter from that kid in my family, saying that he was an excellent in the last monthly exam, and he was praised by Sima Gong~" Wei Yue grinned and laughed.

"So Guangchao pulled the subordinate to the general, saying that he had to hold a banquet to celebrate." Yang Xiu on the side smiled bitterly.

"Haha, it's just that I took the exam once, as for that~ Like that kid in my family, I've been excellent so many times, I don't think there's anything remarkable~" Guan Yu laughed when he heard this, but although he said so, the smugness on his face was not too obvious.

"Humph! General, you are a full man, you don't know that a hungry man is hungry ......," Wei Yue protested with an indignant face when he heard this.

"Okay, okay~ I'm not, I'll ask for this meal today, it's an apology~" Guan Yu smiled when he heard this.

"Humph! And that's not all! Wei Yue seemed to be very satisfied with Guan Yu's words, and hummed while nodding. Seeing this, Guan Yu couldn't help laughing again, even Yang Xiu, who was still a little restrained on the side, couldn't help but cover his mouth and snicker.

Laughing, the three of them walked out, and as soon as they went out, they heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves, and the three of them frowned and followed the sound, but saw that one of them was riding a horse and quickly driving this way. Seeing his outfit, Guan Yu's expressions suddenly became serious, because the person who came was the Tanma sent out to investigate the situation in Chang'an.

In an instant, the tanma came to the three of them, he quickly turned over and dismounted, walked in front of Guan Yu in two or three steps and whispered, "General, news from Chang'an." ”

Hearing this, the three of them glanced at each other, and then heard Guan Yu say in a deep voice, "Come in and talk!" ”

After the four of them entered Guan Yu's mansion, the spy hurriedly reported, "General, not long ago, the Eastern Army outside Chang'an City suddenly put on a defensive formation, and at the same time sent a large number of scout horses, and even many cavalry squads, which seemed to be searching for something. ”

"Oh?! Is there such a thing?! Guan Yu and the three of them glanced at each other, all showing a look of surprise.

After a few moments, Yang Xiu opened his mouth and said, "General, the lower officials think that they should immediately send troops to Chang'an, and at the same time send a large number of spies to investigate the situation of the northern and southern armies of Chang'an!" ”

"This ...... The lord once ordered me in the past, I must not send troops easily, I only need to defend the Baling......" Wei Yue said with some hesitation.

"But the lord also said that he will be outside, and the military order will not be accepted! Now that the situation is special, since the enemy army has sent a large number of scout horses or even a small group of cavalry, it must be looking for some important person or ......thing," Yang Xiu said meaningfully.

"What does Dezu mean that the Holy Lord escaped?" When Guan Yu heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

"It's likely, but it's also possible to hunt down someone else...... But no matter what, the lower officials felt that they could send troops to test it. No matter how bad it is, it's just a confrontation with the enemy and retreating into the city. As long as you don't fight with the enemy easily, I believe that even if the lord knows, he won't blame him. Yang Xiu said in a deep voice.

"Hmm......" Hearing Yang Xiu's words, Guan Yu stroked his beard and groaned, and after a while, he ordered in a deep voice, "Pass my order, assemble the troops and prepare to go on the expedition!" At the same time, a large number of scouts were sent to find out the situation! Especially in the case of other doors! ”

"No!"

At the same time, Zhao Yun of Changling also made the same choice. "The lord has been saying that as a general, you must have the ability to judge the situation and make decisions, although the lord asked me to wait to defend it, but he also said that if the situation is special, you can send troops on your own!" In the face of Sima Lang's dissuasion, Zhao Yun explained.

Of course, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun's actions are actually very risky. Although Li Yi did say something like "the general is outside, and the military order is not subject to it", this only refers to the extremely special situation. And this special situation Li Yi did not say it explicitly, and it can only be pondered by the people below. In addition, Li Yi's army is extremely strict, so under normal circumstances, no one dares to do this at all.

Soon, the news came back again, but the result made Guan Yu dumbfounded.

"Guo Yan rebelled?! Are you sure?! Guan Yu stared at a pair of Danfeng eyes and asked in a hurried tone.

The villain dared to guarantee with his life, and Guo Yan's troops were resisting the pursuit of the Western Army while heading towards the south gate. Also, they seem to be searching for something......" the spy said.

"General, the lower official thinks that the Holy Lord may have really escaped. Otherwise, how could Guo Yan suddenly defect?! Yang Xiu on the side said eagerly.

"Hmm......" Guan Yu groaned for a while when he heard this, and then immediately ordered, "Guangchao, give you 30,000 people, and give me to drag the enemy's eastern army to death." The rest of you, come with me to the South Gate! In addition, send someone to inform Zilong, I believe he must have also received the news at this time to send troops to inquire about the situation, tell him the situation here, and ask him to help drag down the northern army and the eastern army! ”

"No!"

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun's actions were soon learned by Huang Da and Huang Er, and they immediately led their troops to meet them. After a while, the two sides were fighting together. Although Guan Yu divided his troops to try to bypass the enemy army and go to the direction of the south gate, Huang Er also divided his troops to pursue.

"Humph! Supper mouse! Seeing this, Guan Yu immediately snorted coldly and prepared to return to the army to defeat this army. just saw Guan Yu coming to chase after him, but this army retreated at once.

"General, they obviously just want to delay the time of our army, so it seems that the Holy Lord must have escaped! Otherwise, they wouldn't have done it! Yang Xiu said affirmatively this time.

"Hmm." Guan Yu nodded solemnly, but in the face of this army, he was a little helpless. Because it would be too dangerous to take this pursuing force to the south gate. Let's not talk about the situation on Guo Yan's side, but there are still tens of thousands of soldiers in Chang'an City.

Seeing Guan Yu's expression, Yang Xiu immediately guessed the concern in his heart, "General, what do you think about our army also sending a small group of cavalry to the south to search?" Although it is a great achievement to rescue the Holy One, if you break the 50,000 army......"

"That's it!" Guan Yu nodded and said in a deep voice. If he lost the 50,000 army, even if he found Liu Xie, how could he take it out? In this case, it is better to find a way to defeat the troops in front of you first. Even if the Holy One can't be rescued at that time, it will be a credit.

At the same time, southeast of Chang'an.

Liu Xie, Fu Shou, Jia Xu, Zhong Xuan, and about a dozen others were carefully hiding in a bush at this time. They looked nervously at the distance ahead, where more than a dozen horsemen were searching.

"Not here!"

"Not here!"

"Humph! I'll really run away! Let's keep chasing! ”

With the constant shouting, the sound of horses' hooves came from near and far, and finally disappeared.

"Finally left...... Fu Shou just wanted to take a breath when he saw this, but suddenly felt a hand covering his mouth.

"Don't move, beware of deception!" Liu Xie reminded in a low voice.

Hearing Liu Xie's words, Jia Xu and Zhong Xuan glanced at each other, and they both saw the relief in each other's eyes.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the sound of horses' hooves to sound again, and then a cavalryman was seen quickly appearing in view. After looking around, he left again, but this time, he didn't say a word.

But even so, Liu Xie still didn't move, and it wasn't until about half a pillar of incense had passed that he slowly stood up, looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Let's go." ”

Soon, the sky gradually darkened.

"Your Majesty, if it's getting late today, why don't you find a place to rest?" Zhong Xuan looked at the sky and suggested.

"No way!" When Liu Xie heard this, he refused without the slightest hesitation, "Those thieves in the dark night must hold torches if they want to find us, so that they are in the dark and we are in the dark, and it will be safer for us." ”

"It's just that Your Majesty's body ......," Jia Xu on the side said with some concern when he heard this.

"Heh, as long as you can get out of here, what else is it?! You can't let Bethfa sacrifice them in vain. Liu Xie sneered when he heard this, and then turned his head to look at Fu Shou beside him, with a trace of worry and a hint of uncertainty in his eyes.

Seeing this, Fu Shou hurriedly said, "Your Highness don't worry, the concubine can hold on!" ”

"That's good." Liu Xie nodded, and then the group fled to the southeast again. I don't know how long it took, but they stopped again, because the road in front of them was a fork in the road.

"Your Majesty, the lower officials think that if you continue to go east to take refuge in Li Wushuang, Li Wushuang's soldiers are full of food, and the advisers are like clouds and fierce generals, Your Majesty will go to take refuge, and the Han family will definitely be revitalized with the assistance of Li Wushuang in the future!" Jia Xu said respectfully.

Hearing this, Liu Xie was silent, but turned his head to look at Zhong Xuan. Seeing Liu Xie's opinion, Zhong Xuan also hurriedly put forward his thoughts, "Your Majesty, although Li Wushuang has enough soldiers and food, he can be said to be the strongest force today, but because of this, Xia Guan has some doubts about whether he really intends to be the minister of the Han family!" After all, in the past, he had obviously attacked the city of Chang'an, but he chose to withdraw for the sake of hundreds of thousands of people! ”

"Li Wushuang has always been considerate of the people, and there are 500,000 people, if Li Wushuang does not arrange them properly, it will definitely cause chaos." Hearing this, Jia Xu hurriedly explained.

In his opinion, only going to Li Yi's territory is the best choice, not only for Liu Xie, but also for himself. Because of Jia Xu's status in Ma Teng's army, he learned a lot about Li Yi. So in his opinion, as long as there are no accidents, it is inevitable that Li Yi will calm the world.

And in this way, as long as he takes the little emperor to take refuge under Li Yi's command, he can naturally rely on his own means to get real safety. He believes that even if he can't get Li Yi's trust and reuse in the end, Li Yi won't do anything to him for the sake of fame. On the contrary, they will reward themselves with a large amount of money. And if this is the case, Jia Xu can also retire with peace of mind, and at the same time cultivate the next generation.

"Your Majesty, although what Jia Situ said is reasonable, it is precisely because Li Wushuang is so powerful that the lower officials will be worried. Once the plot is wrong, the consequences are unimaginable. And even if Li Wushuang didn't have any ideas, after he pacified the world, who could guarantee that those generals and strategists under his command had no other ideas? Zhong Xuan refuted Jia Xu's words in a deep voice.

Speaking of which, Zhong Xuan naturally won't fail to understand that Li Yi is indeed the best choice at the moment, but ...... For his Zhong family, it is the worst choice.

After the two argued for a long time, Liu Xie finally couldn't help but interrupt, "Enough! Don't be noisy! After speaking, he looked at Zhong Xuan and Jia Xu, and then said in a firm tone, "Continue south, go to Jingzhou!" ”

"Your Majesty?!" Hearing this, Jia Xu suddenly showed a look of disbelief, although Zhong Xuan had been arguing with himself just now, but in his opinion, Liu Xie should have chosen to go to Li Yicai. After all, it was only a few miles away from here to Baling, and Li Yi was the most powerful force.

"I understand what Jia Situ meant, but as Zhong Shilang said, Li Wushuang's mind is not easy to guess, and his mind has to ......be guarded against," Liu Xie said in a light tone, "Moreover, if Li Wushuang will calm down the rebels in the world one by one in the future, and finally let the world return to peace...... So what shall I reward him for this merit? I'm afraid it will ...... then."

Speaking of this, Liu Xie saw that Jia Xu wanted to say something, so he directly waved his hand and interrupted him, "Jia Situ doesn't need to say much, I know that Jia Situ has good intentions, but now ......"

Liu Xie didn't finish his words, but from his gloomy expression, Jia Xu and the others obviously understood what Liu Xie meant.

"Your Majesty, you will definitely regret it!" Looking at Liu Xie's determined gaze, Jia Xu sighed helplessly in his heart.
