Chapter Forty-Eight: It's Not Over
When Li Xing angrily followed Meng Hu to Ye Zhao's camp, Zhang Yue had already returned with people.
"What about the casualties?" Ye Zhao glanced at Li Xing, did not speak, but looked at Zhang Yue, this army that has not yet been named is his personal guard for the time being, the soldiers who are good at fighting among the thousands of elites plus his training in the past few months, have invested a lot of effort and energy, and the slightest loss will be distressed, but such a unit that he has high hopes for, if it does not experience fighting and fighting, no matter how well it is trained, it cannot be called a real top army, Ye Zhao's mood is very conflicted.
"Three people were wounded, but no one was killed." Zhang Yue's emotionless voice came from behind the cold bronze mask, giving people a feeling of chill all over their bodies.
"Very good, if this battle is won, you should take the first credit, go down to rest, and order the military doctors to treat the wounded as soon as possible!" Ye Zhao nodded with satisfaction, as long as no one died.
"Whoa!" Zhang Yue bowed, turned around and left directly, and Ye Zhao looked at Li Xing.
"Why is General Lee here?" Ye Zhao looked at Li Xing and asked.
"Since the general has already ignited the fire in Macheng, why don't you take this opportunity to capture Macheng in one go?" Li Xing intervened, he also heard the previous words, and naturally knew that the Macheng fire was caused by Ye Zhao, but he didn't understand that since he had come to this point, why bother with Helian again, wouldn't it be better to kill Helian in one go?
"The show has just begun." Ye Zhao smiled and said, "He Lian can't die yet. β
"Does the general really want to raise a thief for self-respect!?" Li Xing pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword and looked at Ye Zhao.
"Presumptuous!" Guan Hai, Ding Li and others were furious when they saw this, and they all showed their weapons and glared at Li Xing fiercely.
"Put it away." Ye Zhao waved his hand and looked at Li Xingdao: "If Captain Li thinks that this general is self-respecting for raising thieves, he can report to the imperial court, but before the imperial edict comes down, this general is still Captain Wuhuan!" Listen to me. β
Li Xing looked at Ye Zhao silently, let go of the hilt of the sword, and bowed to Ye Zhao, without saying more.
Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao helplessly, turned his head to look at Li Xing, and said with a smile: "Captain Li, don't be angry, the lord doesn't want to raise thieves for self-respect, but he doesn't want our army to go to fight with Helian, so he ordered people to go through the secret passage of Macheng, burned the grain and grass in the city, and forced them to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with our army." β
"Although the last general has been in Zhuo County for a long time, he has also heard that Macheng is rich and the people are rich, even if he burns grain and grass, with the temperament of Xianbei people, I am afraid that he will attack the people in the city." Li Xing frowned.
"This is what the lord wants, the remaining people in the city now, almost all of them are Saiwaihu people, with a tyrannical temperament, if He Lian really attacks them, I am afraid that they can be asked to fight first inside without us making a move, and then we can sit and watch the tiger fight, no matter who wins in the end, our army can easily take Macheng, in this way, isn't it better than attacking now?" Qiu Chi explained with a smile.
When Li Xing heard this, he couldn't help but gasp, and looked at Ye Zhao in shock, although the result had not yet happened, but he had almost seen this scene, these days in the city Hu people who have been killed several times out of the city, I am afraid that I have lost the courage to fight to the death with them, I am afraid that Ye Zhao is for today's situation, now that the official food in the city has been burned, the Hu soldiers have been beaten by them, and they have no courage to come out to fight, in order to survive, they can only attack the Hu people in the city, and the contradiction is almost irreconcilable, just as Qiu Chi said, What they have to do now is to stay outside the city to prevent the Hu people in the city from escaping, and to completely trap Helian in this horse city.
"General, with all due respect, as far as I know, the Hu people in the city are all naturalized by the general, and they are already counted as my Han people, isn't it chilling to do this?" Li Xing frowned.
"If Macheng is not lost, they are the people of our Han family, but it is a pity that Macheng was broken one day, the Han people in the city were slaughtered, and the people's hearts were scattered, and they are no longer Han people." Ye Zhao shook his head, looked at Li Xing and said, "Captain Li still has a problem?" β
"Don't dare, the general is wise, and the last general will obey the general's orders." Li Xing intervened, but this time he was much more respectful than before.
"Very good, after going back, guard the camp, send people to inspect the four gates every day, don't let the Hu people have a chance to escape!" Ye Zhao nodded.
"Whoa!"
"Qiu Chi, there is one thing that needs to be done by you." Ye Zhao turned his head to look at Qiu Chidao.
"My lord's command." Qiu Chi hurriedly bowed.
"You go to the Xianbei Royal Court." Ye Zhao groaned.
"This ......" A trace of fear flashed in Qiu Chi's eyes, and he didn't dare to agree.
"Don't worry, the head wants to ascend to the position of Shan Yu, at this time, Helian is not dead, he doesn't dare to do anything to you, tell him, if you want Helian's life, within three days, give me an attack on Suli!" Ye Zhao said coldly: "You have to really fight!" β
"Whoa!" Qiu Chi took a deep breath and bowed down to receive the order.
Li Xing took a step forward and said: "General, our army's mission is to eliminate this invading enemy, why bother to cause trouble again?" β
"It's not Ben who is looking for their bad luck!" Ye Zhao handed a piece of white silk to Li Xing and said: "Zhao Rong sent a message yesterday, that Kebineng has already led the army to raid the military capital mountain camp, if it is not for the early preparations, the military capital mountain camp has been broken at this moment." β
"In that case, why don't you let the leader directly attack the Kebineng department? Now Helian is already a turtle in the urn, and the last general is willing to lead the army to reinforce the capital mountain! Li Xing wondered.
"It's too far to come." Ye Zhao shook his head, Kebineng's tribe is not far from Jundu Mountain, but in order to get out of the control of the Xianbei Royal Court, it is a long way from the Royal Court, even if the leader agrees to send troops, I am afraid that by the time he arrives, the Jundu Mountain camp has already been breached.
"Second, this Kebi can not be underestimated, quite a bit of the spirit of the sandalwood in the past, on the grassland, can be called a hero, this person is to send troops, I am afraid there is also a backhand, not to mention that our army must now be trapped and killed, here the soldiers and horses can not be moved lightly, that Suli and Kebi can be good, is now one of the few Xianbei adults who support Kebi Neng, Kebi Neng's position is now unstable, it is impossible to let Su Li have an accident, once the leader sends troops, Kebi can only return to help" Ye Zhao pointed to the map and smiled: "He Lian must die, but before he dies, he needs to play some use, This is called waste utilization. β
Waste utilization?
Li Xing hadn't heard of this word, but it didn't hinder his understanding, and he frowned: "What if that boss refuses to send troops?" β
"He has to come out!" Ye Zhao sneered: "When our army arrived here that day, the leader and others were no longer there, these days, I am afraid that a coup d'Γ©tat has been launched in the royal court, if Helian is put back at this moment, then everything he has done before will not only be wasted, but will also be attacked by the entire Xianbei group, he can't afford to gamble!" β
"The general is wise, and the general will retire!" Li Xing took a deep breath, he was really convinced of Ye Zhao at this moment, and after bowing at the moment, he turned around and left.
