Yuan Xi left, but Li Yi did not immediately send troops as he said, on the contrary, he directly stationed about 10 miles outside the city of Pi and did not move.

However, it was not Li Yi who reversed his word, because he gave Yuan Xi a very reasonable reason.

"Ah Xi, although I also want to send troops immediately, but you also know that half a year has passed since I responded to the dispatch of the coalition army, and the food I brought has basically been eaten......" Li Yi said with embarrassment, "Moreover, that Hu Ren took the opportunity to rebel before Liu Bao, and now he has taken refuge in Dong Zhuo." Although it had no impact on our army, there were also many Hu people on the Bingzhou side who responded to the rebellion......"

"Please rest assured, my father will definitely understand you." Yuan Xi replied respectfully, he didn't doubt this, because not long ago, Han Fu had just sent grain and grass to Yuan Shao.

On the other hand, the news that Li Yi had arrived 10 miles outside of Pi's City naturally couldn't be hidden from Li Dao and the others, but they didn't have any reaction to this. Because when they came, they had already been given a death order by Dong Zhuo, they must defend the city to the death and are not allowed to go out of the city to meet the enemy. At that time, Dong Zhuo's anger, Li Dao and Han Sui could not forget it no matter what.

It's just that what they didn't expect was that after Li Yi arrived 10 miles outside of Pi's City, there was no movement. Not to mention the siege, not even a simple temptation.

"What is this Li Yi's idea?!" Li Dao looked at Han Sui and Liu Bao and asked.

Hearing this, Han Sui didn't say anything, just turned his head to look at Liu Bao, after all, from the understanding of Li Yi, none of the three people present could compare to Liu Bao.

"Come to think of it, he may be waiting for news from the state." Seeing this, Liu Bao sighed and said.

Hearing Liu Bao's words, Li Dao and Han Sui immediately reacted, "Hmm...... Indeed, if he abandoned the darkness and turned to Xiangguo, Li Yi naturally had to worry about the reaction of the Hu people in the state. In this way, he can explain it now without moving. Li Dao said in a deep voice.

"General Li Zhonglang, in your opinion, how should we deal with it now?" Han Sui asked casually when he heard this.

"Don't bother." Li Dao shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Even with Liu Danyu's troops, there are only more than 50,000 people here. If it's another enemy, I'm not afraid, but then Li Yi ......" In the end, Li Dao's tone was full of jealousy.

Although he has never fought with Li Yi, Li Ji knows Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew very well. And from the mouths of the remnants of the defeated soldiers who fled here, Li Dao also learned about the course of that battle. It can be said that in Li Dao's view, Zhang Xiu's proposal and Zhang Ji's decision are not too big a problem, and if it were him, it is very likely that he will do it.

Moreover, Zhang Ji's ambush and response did not seem to have gone wrong, and there was even a huge advantage brought by Liu Bao's sudden rebellion on the way. But in such a situation, Zhang Ji was still defeated, not only lost Puzicheng, but also killed himself and his nephew Zhang Xiu.

Why defeat? After Li Dao summed it up a little, he came to a very simple conclusion, that is, the generals under Li Yi's command were too strong...... It's so strong that even in that disadvantage, it can still easily open up the situation. Although this strength is limited to trapping camps and flying cavalry battalions, isn't this the case many times in war? With the elite troops to gain the advantage, the rest of the troops just need to kill together.

"And Xiangguo has already given a death order, no matter what the circumstances, no attack is allowed." It seemed that he was afraid that Han Sui or Liu Bao would not listen to the order, and Li Dao moved out of Dong Zhuo.

After speaking, Li Dao looked at Liu Bao again and persuaded in a deep voice, "Shan Yu, I know that you hate Li Yi very much, but at present, it is not a good opportunity to fight with that Li Yi." ”

"Please rest assured that Li Zhonglang will not act recklessly." Liu Bao replied respectfully when he heard this.

"What about Linfen? Once Li Yi solves the Hu people in Bingzhou, I'm afraid he will mobilize the troops of Bingzhou to the east and open a second front......" Han Sui said with some concern.

"Hmm...... Although I don't think that Bingzhou can support so many troops to fight, Wen Xiansheng also asked me to pay more attention to Linfen ......," Li Dao muttered when he heard this. "In this way, when General Dong leads the army to help, I will lead the army to Linfen to defend it."

Hearing this, Han Sui nodded, but didn't say anything more.

And just when Li Dao and others were speculating about Li Yi's actions, Lu Bu and others over there were also a little confused. They didn't hear what Li Yi and Yuan Xi said, otherwise they would definitely guess Li Yi's thoughts more or less.

So after everyone discussed it, they recommended Lu Bu, who had the best relationship with Li Yi, to inquire. After all, it doesn't seem to be the same thing to stay here and be stupid, right?

"Lord, there are only 40,000 soldiers in Pi's city now, although there is a traitor Liu Bao to help, but it is less than 60,000, with the strength of our army now, ......" Lu Bu asked respectfully, his tone full of puzzlement.

"Fengxian, it's not difficult to capture the Pi clan, and it's not even difficult to take the entire Hedong, but what about after that?" Li Yi asked casually when he heard this.

"After that?" Hearing Li Yi's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but be stunned, thought about it, and then replied hesitantly, "It should be to attack Chang'an and kill Dong Thief, and rescue the Holy Lord and many scholars......

"How can it be that easy?" Li Yi shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Why do you think Yuan Shao sent someone to let us take Hedong as soon as possible?" With his troops, and now that Dong Zhuo's main force is still in the revolving gate, it is impossible to be blocked by a mere Yewang City. ”

"The lord means to say......" Lu Bu heard this, a flash of realization flashed on his face, obviously he had guessed something.

"Now among the coalition forces, the strength of Yuan Shao's side has reached 120,000, and the strength of Yanzhou is also tens of thousands, although there are Han Fu, Liu Pet and others to support grain and grass, but how long do you think they can support it? Not to mention attacking Chang'an. Li Yi shook his head and smiled, but there was a hint of bitterness in this smile.

Look at people, no matter how many troops are sent, there are also people who sponsor grain and grass. But what about Li Yi? Now the army has reached more than 100,000 people, and the available food and grass are all his own! To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Li Yi had been desperately stockpiling all kinds of food and military supplies before, the consumption of troops alone would have been enough to drag him and the entire state down. But even so, with Li Yi's reserves now, he can't last a year and a half.

"Moreover, although this war has the participation of me and Meng De, in the final analysis, it is just a battle between the Dong family and the Yuan family." Li Yi saw Lu Bu's appearance and said again, "Win, the Yuan family is in power, with Yuan Shao's jealousy of me, I'm afraid I won't get any benefits." Lose, it's still the same......"
