Liu Yu waited in the valley for another day, and at this time, Xu Yuanfang's army besieging the mountain did not withdraw, but increased the scope of patrols.

Liu Yu thought about it in his heart after getting the news, and Liu Yu guessed that it was precisely because Xu Yuanwei, the second ancestor, was missing from Xu Yuanfang's army, and because of the disruptive actions taken by Liu Yu before, Xu Yuanli, who was responsible for leading the troops, would expand the scope of inspection around the mountain.

Liu Yu also specially asked Lian Husheng to catch a peripheral sentinel and ask about it, which confirmed Liu Yu's conjecture.

The four generals of the Xu family are missing.

The local military situation in Lingnan has family and sectarian characteristics, Xu Yuanli came to besiege Bai Yue, the main purpose is revenge and anti-looting, at this time Xu Yuanwei disappeared, even if he successfully defeated Bai Yue, it must be more guilty than meritorious to go back. Therefore, in the past two days, Xu Yuanfang's army was not too fierce in attacking the mountain, and Xu Yuanli put his mind on finding Xu Yuanwei.

Liu Yu calculated, in a day or two, Xu Yuanli's inspection scope would be expanded to the valley line. Liu Yu estimated at this time, it stands to reason that after Qi Fang received the order, he would immediately send Huo Yi to follow Liu Yu's instructions and attack Kangsheng City with light cavalry, and the news would probably come on May 29 or 30, and when Xu Yuanfang chose to withdraw or not to withdraw his troops, he would also make a decision within these two days.

On the evening of the 29th, there was still no movement on Yetou Mountain. Liu Yu asked everyone to pack up and retreat to the north, and at the same time, Liu Yu ordered Xu Yuanwei to be taken back to the foot of Yetou Mountain blindfolded and released, Lian Yusheng was puzzled, but Liu Yu's attitude was very firm.

Liu Yu's purpose was to let Xu Yuanwei bring his words back, so that Xu Yuanli and Xu Yuanfang knew that the imperial army was moving further south.

In Liu Yu's opinion. Xu Yuanwei is greedy for life and afraid of death. After learning that the imperial army was going to wage a major war against the south. will bring the news he got back to his brother Zhilu as soon as possible, and Liu Yu also made conditions for Xu Yuanwei to go back as an internal response. Of course, Liu Yue knew that Xu Yuanwei would most likely rebel, Liu Yu just said that this was "the decision from above", Xu Yuanwei could escape and could not care about anything else, and agreed to Liu Yu's conditions, and he was taken out of the valley. And Liu Yu also hurriedly led people to chase after the group of people who evacuated in advance.

Liu Yu led the people to evacuate all the way north for more than 20 miles before stopping, and at this time there was a distance of 40 miles from Yetou Mountain. Xu Yuanfang Dikui attacked the top of Yetou Mountain and there were 2,000 men and horses in the sky, if what Xu Yuanwei said was true, it would be 1,002. It is basically difficult for 1,200 people to find a point within a radius of dozens of miles, and Liu Yu also took precautions. Here, Liu Yu felt safe.

There was no fire in the camp that night, and a group of people gathered together for a cold meal, and then each of them either went into a tent or fell asleep with a simple blanket and clothes, because of the large number of people. Dorene, who was supposed to come over to meet her lover, gave up because she couldn't avoid people's eyes and ears, and went to accompany her two sisters instead.

The next morning. Liu Yu received a report from the front that Xu Yuanfang's army besieging Yetou Mountain had withdrawn.

When Liu Yu brought the news to Mi Er, a girl from the Baiyue tribe, Mi Er was sad for a companion who had just choked her breath, and she didn't show much joy when she heard the news of Xu Yuanfang's withdrawal of troops, a girl seemed to have grown up overnight and understood the consequences of impermanence and willfulness in the world.

"Take the bodies of your people and go back to the mountains." Liu Yu said in a semi-commanding tone to Mier.

Mier cleaned up his mood, and with the support of Duo Lin, he accompanied the caravan and the Huang Yue people to the direction of Yetou Mountain. In the afternoon, the group only reached the range of about ten miles down the mountain, Liu Yu did not go up the mountain, but asked Lian Husheng to take a few people up the mountain first, and went to the mountain to see the reaction of the Baiyue people.

Mi Er and another Baiyue were temporarily taken hostage by Liu Yu, and the purpose of Lian Husheng going up the mountain was to "negotiate".

It was war before, and now it's about diplomacy. Since Liu Yu knew that the Baiyue people had always been unfriendly to the Han people, he would not take risks easily.

While waiting for Lian Husheng's return, Duo Lin was very nervous, and looked at Liu Yu from time to time. Because Liu Yu and Qu Ning sat together and talked, she didn't even have the courage to come over, and she didn't know whether Liu Yu was going to send her up the mountain or take her with her. She still didn't get a positive answer, and she was still not at ease.

Qu Ning didn't care about it at first, but when she found out about Doreen's abnormality, she left very familiarly. Duo Lin hurriedly ran over, and after a few steps, she gasped lightly, and looked at Liu Yu very affectionately.

"Ah Mei, I may have to send your people up the mountain in a while, and when we are separated in the future, don't think about them." Liu Yu smiled slightly.

"That'...... What about my sister? ”

Liu Yuxin said that this matter is a bit troublesome, and it is not wise to take two little girls about ten years old on the road, after all, the road to Yizhou is very long, and you need to hurry.

"Temporarily place them in Baiyue's village, and when we come back, we will pick them up and go with us." Liu Yudao.

Doreen thought about it, there was no better way, and she also knew that taking her two younger sisters by her side was a drag. The last one nodded, still a little unhappy on her face.

Liu Yu touched Duo Lin's head, and the yellow hat on Duo Lin's head had been taken off at this time, and the women of the Yue family, even if they were not married, combed them up and pulled them into a bun, which looked very delicate with Duo Lin's little face.

Liu Yu and Duo Lin sat side by side, Liu Yu teased Duo Lin a few words, Duo Lin's face was a little red, and she stood up and said that she was going to discuss with her clansmen. At this time, Lian Husheng had already brought someone back, and at the same time, he also brought a middle-aged man about forty years old wearing a white square hat.

As soon as the man appeared, Mier came with his people, and Mier threw himself into the man's arms while weeping, and called out "Abba".

Only then did Liu Yu know that this was the Daqiu of the Baiyue tribe, that is, the chief of their Baiyue.

"Everyone, thank you a lot for rescuing us Bai Yue, on behalf of Bai Yue's people, I would like to invite you to the mountain as a guest." Bai Yue's Daqiu is named Helu, and Helu is his surname, in the Yue clan, only the surname is left after being Daqiu, because Daqiu is hereditary, which means that their patriarch will always be the same name.

Mier's full name is Helu Mier, and Doreen's full name is Domulin, and Domu is Doreen's surname. When dealing with the Han people, whether it is the Yue family or other ethnic minorities in Lingnan, they all refer to themselves by their first names, which makes people feel as if they have names and no surnames. In fact, surnames are also very important among ethnic minorities, even if there are only a few people left in a village with a big disaster, they insist on practicing the same surname and not marrying.

Liu Yu, as the leader of the caravan, had a conversation with He Lu. Liu Yu learned from He Lu that in fact, Xu Yuanfang's army had withdrawn last night, and the withdrawal was very embarrassing, and their clansmen immediately went down the mountain to follow up, and now they know that Xu Yuanfang's army has all returned to dozens of miles and hundreds of miles away, and will not come back for the time being.

He Lu seemed very enthusiastic, but in Liu Yu's opinion, this person was a bit cunning and cunning, and his words made him feel a little uneasy. In the face of He Lu's invitation to invite them to go up the mountain, Liu Yu did not refuse, because he also had to escort the people of the Huangyue tribe up the mountain. (To be continued......)
