Chapter 127: Li Dao wants to escape

In Li Wei's eyes, there was a look of sadness that was greater than death, and he looked coldly at Zhong Xuan, who was talking with Peipei.

At this time, he didn't care what Zhong Xuan said, Li Dao didn't want to hear it.

He lightly interrupted Zhong Xuan's words and said: "Tonight, Li is going to leave Tianshui City, leave from the north gate of the city, and flee to the Wei River, someone will answer, Mr. Zhong Xuan, are you leaving with Li?" ”

"What? Flee tonight...... Let's go? Where to go? Zhong Xuan said in surprise.

He really didn't think that Li Dao's courage would be so small, as soon as the New Han Army arrived, he was so frightened that he wanted to abandon the city and flee? Wβ€”That's too much of an exaggeration, isn't it? Could this Li Dao be really cowardly as a mouse?

"Naturally, I went to defect to Guo Yan, this old man, Li and him, although there is a slight discord, but we have been friends with him for decades, Li defected to him, he will not fall into the ground, right?" Li Dao said noncommittally.

"No! General Lee, how can you run away without a fight like this? Zhong Xuan said a little anxiously.

"Can't do it? Hehe, Mr. Zhong Xuan, this ...... Are you mistaken? Tianshui City, it's still my Li Dao's, now I don't want it, Liu Yi wants it, can't I give it to him? Is it possible, you still want to stop me? What's more, don't say it so ugly, am I running away? It's just that I, Li Dao, are tired of being the city lord of Tianshui City again, we don't want to play now, can't we go to drink and talk with old friends? Li Dao said angrily.

"General Lee! Don't forget, you have declared allegiance to Lord Cao Cao, and you are already a subordinate of Duke Cao. No matter what decision you make, it's all about Cao Gong's reputation, Zhong. Deeply trusted by Duke Cao, he entrusted Zhong to operate in Xiliang, and the first task was to prevent Liu Yi of the New Han Dynasty from seizing Xiliang, and the second was to contact the princes of Xiliang to give Liu Yi of the New Han Dynasty a certain amount of containment. Zhong Xuan stood up with a red face and a thick neck and said to Li Dao: "General Li, Tianshui City must not give up!" Otherwise, it will affect the overall situation of Cao Gong. You should have known about it. Duke Cao has now allied himself with Liu Jingsheng of Jingzhou and is preparing to attack the New Han Dynasty......"

"So what? Cao Cao's attack on the New Han Dynasty, what does it have to do with me Li Dao? Li Wei impatiently interrupted Zhong Xuan's speech and said, "That's right. I, Li Dao, did say that I would serve Cao Cao not long ago, but there is no reason why I, Li Dao, didn't even see Cao Cao's face, and said a word to serve Cao Cao. I'm going to sell my life to Cao Cao, right? Let alone. None of the things you promised have been fulfilled, and you still want to ask me Li Dao to seek death in Tianshui City? Hehe, seriously, I haven't lived enough in my life, and I don't want to put my net worth and life here. I say this, Mr. Zhong Xuan, can you understand? ”

"Ridiculous! Tianshui City has high walls and thick walls. The materials for defending the city are fully prepared, and you Li Dao now have at least tens of thousands of elite soldiers. There is no shortage of food and grass in the city, and you don't even have the courage to guard for ten days and a half months? As soon as the New Han Army arrives, you will retreat? Zhong Xuan was very angry with Li Dao, angry that Li Dao was a force in vain, and he didn't even have the courage to fight with the enemy.

"That's right, Mr. Zhong Xuan, what you said is the truth, but you have ignored a more important fact, that is, the name of the invincible army of the new Han army, do you think it was blown out? Now, the Xinhan army is at the foot of Tianshui City, which shows that it only took them a few days to break through the two or three hundred miles long defense line that Li had spent several years carefully building. From Tianshui to Chencang, two or three hundred miles, among them, how many of them are dangerous passes? I believe you have seen these with your own eyes, Mr. Zhong. But even so, my Li's military horses are difficult to resist the enemy, and they are so completely defeated, you can talk about it, with the current situation of Tianshui City, how can it resist the siege of the New Han Army? Li Wei said frankly: "Mr. Zhong Xuan, Li and Liu Yi's military horses have not fought once and a half, but whichever time, it was Li who ended in a fiasco, you may not have seen the power of the New Han Army's trebuchets, bed crossbows, and archers, and you have not personally seen the power of these generals like Ma Chao, Pang De, etc. on the battlefield, so you think that Li can hold Tianshui City for a while." Well, you're wrong, if the New Han Army doesn't attack, it's just that, once it attacks, it will be a thunderbolt, and it will definitely not allow people to breathe any longer, and all that awaits is defeat. Do you think that I, Li Dao, am willing to flee from the prosperous capital of Chang'an to Xilianglai, a poor mountain and a bad water? At the beginning, Li and generals such as Guo Yan, Niu Fu, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou also had hundreds of thousands of troops, but they were still defeated by the New Han Army, which was not really powerful. was forced by Liu Yi to flee to Xilianglai. Now, the New Han Army has become a general trend, even if its army is attacking in Youzhou, Jizhou, Jingzhou Dongting Lake, Jiangdong and other places, but now the New Han Army under Tianshui City is not something that Li dares to resist lightly. ”

Zhong Xuan was silent when he heard it.

For Zhong Xuan, he can only give advice, but he really hasn't seen much on the battlefield with his own eyes. He really didn't know what the strength of the New Han Army was.

Li Wei said with a headache: "Mr. Zhong Xuan, I am also dissatisfied with you, it is not that Li is cowardly and incompetent, but that under Liu Yi's account, fierce generals are like clouds, such as Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Xu Zhu, Tai Shici, Gan Ning, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, etc., none of them can be the enemy of Li." In addition to them, there are many masters who are no less than the above, according to the sergeants who escaped from Hedong Xiaocheng and other passes, at this moment, even Wang Yue's great sword master is working hard for Liu Yi, think about it, don't say that the two armies are facing each other, even if Wang Yue's great sword master is here, he can also take my head among thousands of troops and horses, when Helan Mountain, Wang Yue's great sword master can take the head of the enemy chief among thousands of troops and horses, and now there are no exceptions? If I don't run away, then I'm afraid I won't be able to escape again. ”

"This ......" Zhong Xuan didn't want to accuse Li Dao of anything at the moment, after all, if people don't do it for themselves, heaven and earth will be destroyed. Although he Li Dao has already announced his submission to Cao Cao, he has not received any benefits now, so he naturally does not blame Li Dao too much, besides, the current Tianshui City is indeed Li Dao's final say, what else can he say?

"Okay......" Zhong Xuan shook his head helplessly, and said with his last effort: "However, General Li, can you wait for Zhong to say some words, and then you decide whether to abandon Tianshui or not?" ”

"Well, if you want to go, you can only go after dark, and there is still time, you can say it." Seeing that Zhong Jian didn't want to force himself to defend Tianshui anymore, Li Wei said with a slightly soothing expression. (To be continued......)
