"Gao Yuan, where are you now? It's been more than a month now, why haven't you come back yet? Li Yinghong sat alone in the big tent and muttered to himself.

At this time, the curtain was lifted, and a cold wind blew into the tent, and Li Yinghong also shivered unconsciously, it turned out that Sima Shang, Yuan Xuan, Chen Shi, and Zhao Xuan came in from outside the tent together. Sima Shang said: "Yinghong, the weather is cold, you also wear a few more clothes, if you fall ill at this time, everyone really doesn't know what to do." ”

Li Yinghong squeezed out a smile, nodded, and said, "I know, thank you, General Sima." You have come to me, is there anything you can do? ”

The four of them glanced at each other, and Sima Shang finally said: "Just now Zheng Shuping Cui asked me, how did you think about it, he has been waiting here for three days, and he wants to go back to recover his life." Moreover, Daijun has already provided us with 3,000 stone of grain, and if we don't agree to his request, Zhao Jia will not provide us with food again. ”

Li Yinghong was stunned for a moment, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but it quickly dimmed again.

Yuan Xuan said: "I said it a long time ago, so I just rejected him directly, so that he would always be noisy in his ears." This grain was ours. Now Zhao Jia is coming to blackmail us. ”

Chen Shi sighed and said, "What's the use of saying these things now, Daijun and the grain are in Zhao Jia's hands." ”

Yuan Xuan said angrily: "What do you mean by this, do you want to force Yinghong to marry that bastard of Zhao Jia?" ”

Chen Shi was also angry and said, "When did I force Yinghong, now Daijun and grain are in Zhao Jia's hands, this is all a fact." ”

Yuan Xuan said: "Then attack Daijun, drive Zhao Jia away, and take back the grain and Daijun." ”

Chen Shi said: "You said it easily, attack Daijun?" What kind of siege do we have, now we only have more than 70,000 available soldiers, but the army in the city of Daijun is close to 100,000, and we don't have any siege equipment, how can we capture Daijun. ”

Yuan Xuan said: "According to your statement, you can only let Yinghong marry Zhao Jia, if you do this, are you still worthy of the general?" And when the plateau comes back, how do you explain like the plateau. ”

Chen Shi said angrily: "I have said a long time ago, I will never force Yinghong, what I said is true, it is impossible for us to attack Daijun now." ”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Sima Shang said sharply: "Shut up for me, when is it, and you have to quarrel by yourself." ”

After listening to Sima Shang's reprimand, Yuan Xuan and Chen Shi stopped talking. And Li Yinghong smiled bitterly and asked again: "How many days is the food we have left over now enough to support us?" ”

Sima Shang said: "It's only enough for six or seven days. After a pause, he said: "Actually, food is not the most tricky thing, because if you hunt some more prey and kill some war horses, it will be able to take more than ten days." But now the weather is freezing, and within five or six days, there will be heavy snowfall, and there are many old, weak, women, and children in the camp. ”

Li Yinghong nodded and said, "Okay, I know, General Sima, you go and sue Zheng Shuping, let him wait another day, and when it comes to tomorrow, I will definitely give him an answer." ”

Sima Shang said: "Okay." ”

At this time, Zhao Xuan, who had not spoken just now, said: "Yinghong, you won't really agree to Zhao Jia, the teacher said that Gao Yuan is still alive, there must be no mistake, he didn't come to us, there must be another reason, you must not do something stupid." ”

Li Yinghong nodded and said, "I know, now I want to think quietly by myself, is it okay?" ”

Several people glanced at each other, and they all felt uncomfortable, now Li Yinghong is only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, and it is really too difficult for her to take on such a big responsibility. But in the face of the current predicament, no one has a good way, so several people had to withdraw from the big tent in turn, leaving Li Yinghong alone in the tent.

After everyone left, Li Yinghong finally couldn't hold it anymore, fell on the table, and cried with a whimper.

It turned out that under the guidance of Guiguzi, everyone retreated to the Fanwu camp and joined forces with Sima Shang, and then gave up the Fanwu camp and retreated to Quyang. Sima Shang, Yuan Xuan, Chen Shi and others discussed and decided that when the plateau had not yet returned, Li Yinghong would temporarily serve as the commander of the whole army. Of course, the main matter is decided by everyone through consultation.

First of all, everyone negotiated and decided that Quyang was too close to Jingcheng and Fanwu to be used as a foundation, so the money, grain and materials should be transported to Daijun, and when necessary, Quyang could be abandoned and retreated to Daijun. So Li Yinghong also ordered that all the money, food, and materials in Quyang City, as well as the people of Quyang, be transferred to Daijun. Li Mu broke through the Qin army's Jingcheng camp, although it was quickly recaptured by the Qin army, but the Zhao army still moved most of the Qin army's supplies and military supplies, so the accumulated materials were also very rich, enough to support more than a year.

Sure enough, more than ten days later, Meng Wu and Li Xin led 100,000 Qin troops to attack Quyang. Everyone believed that it was not appropriate to fight hard with the Qin army at this time, so they decided to withdraw from Quyang and retreat to Daijun.

So everyone led the defenders of Quyang, together with the generals and the families of the soldiers, totaling nearly 200,000 people, to evacuate to Daijun. After the Qin army captured Quyang, heavy snow fell from the sky, and the Qin army was unable to pursue it anymore.

But when Li Yinghong and others led the army and their families to Dai County, they found that the situation had changed greatly. It turned out that when Handan City was broken, Zhao Jia and the great Sima Zhao Cong, together with hundreds of clans and forty or fifty thousand troops, evacuated from Handan and retreated to Daijun.

Although there were about 30,000 defenders in the county at this time, Li Yinghong and others were still stationed in Quyang, not in Daijun, and Zhao Jia and Zhao Cong were originally from Zhao, so the defender of Daijun Kaicheng put them into the city, and as a result, not only did Zhao Jia and Zhao Cong occupy Handan, but also got all the military supplies that Li Yinghong and others had stored in Handan. So Zhao Jia decided to claim the title of king in Daijun and succeed Zhao Xuan's ancestry.

As a result, when Li Yinghong and others led the army to Daijun, Zhao Jia ordered that the four gates be closed, not allowing Li Yinghong's army to enter the city, and letting them camp outside the city, and at the same time send people out of the city to ask Li Yinghong and others to respect Zhao Jia as the acting king.

Li Yinghong and the others had no choice but to agree to Zhao Jia's request. But Zhao Jia still didn't let them march, but just sent Zheng Shuping out of the city, bringing 3,000 stone of grain, and at the same time asked Li Yinghong to accept Li Yinghong as his queen.

In fact, Zhao Jia wants to make Li Yinghong the queen, not because of lust, although Li Yinghong is beautiful and has the crown of Handan, but after all, he has been married to a wife, and there is no shortage of beauties around Zhao Jia, his real purpose is to use marriage to incorporate the rest of Li Mu.

Although Zhao Jia has some fame in Handan, he does not have much seniority in the military, so although there are nearly 100,000 troops in the county town now, most of them are controlled by the great Sima Zhao Cong, more than 60,000 people. And Zhao Jianeng has less than 10,000 troops at his disposal. The rest are Li Mu's old subordinates and belong to the neutral faction.

With a period of time in Handan as a fake state minister, Zhao Jia also knows the importance of holding real power, if he can't grasp the considerable military power, even if he is the king, he can only be just a puppet king, and now he can pull the other armies of Long, it can only be Li Mu's old department. It's a pity that although there are still nearly 30,000 Li Mu's old troops in the city, they are only loyal to Li Mu's successor, and Zhao Jia can't support them.

At this time, someone asked Zhao Jia to recruit Li Yinghong as the queen, so that not only could he justifiably command Li Mu's old department in the city, but also more than 70,000 people outside the city would also obey Zhao Jia's orders, not only could they compete with Zhao Cong, but they could completely overwhelm Zhao Cong...... After Zhao Jia heard this, he also thought that this idea was good, not only could he hold the beauty, but also get the support of Li Mu's rest of the army, so he immediately sent Zheng Shu out of the city and formally asked Li Yinghong.

After receiving Yu Zhao Jia's request, it suddenly exploded in the barracks, and many generals scolded Zhao Jia, and they were so angry that they even wanted to kill Zheng Shuping, and then attack Handan.

However, after the great changes, Li Yinghong has matured a lot, although she is also very angry at Zhao Jia for taking the opportunity to coerce, but she is more aware of the predicament she is facing now. Now there are about 70,000 soldiers in the battalion, with more than 100,000 family members, and after the loss of Daijun, there is almost no place to go. Although there are also people who build yì, retreat to Yanmen Pass, or Yunzhong County to garrison, but firstly, it has entered the cold winter now, and the road is difficult, secondly, there are too many family members with their families, and what is even more important is that the camp has run out of food, and it is impossible to carry out a large-scale migration, and Li Yinghong cannot help but think about what if he leaves Daijun and comes here to find himself.

Therefore, Li Yinghong also used the name of his own serious consideration, stabilized Zheng Shu, and first got the 3,000 stone grain in his hands, which temporarily alleviated the urgent need. However, 3,000 stone of grain is basically a drop in the bucket for nearly 200,000 people, and it can only support ten days. And Zheng Shuping repeatedly forced Cui again, and Li Yinghong really didn't know what to do.

After crying for a while, Li Yinghong's love was also a little relaxed, but now she still has no clue, and she doesn't want to go back to the sleeping tent to rest, because first, she can't sleep even if she returns to the sleeping tent, and secondly, she lives in a camp with Geng Yanyu and Lin Wenzhu, and if they ask, she doesn't know what to say.

It turned out that when Handan City was broken, Lin Wenzhu took Luo Huan and just escorted a batch of materials to Quyang, but he was very lucky to avoid this catastrophe, so he lived in Quyang, Geng Yanyu was originally a concubine of the plateau, and he had already moved to Quyang with the plateau, and when Li Yinghong led the army to evacuate from Quyang, he also brought them all, because the military camp was crowded, and the plateau was not here, so the three of them lived in a sleeping tent together, so they could take care of each other.

Therefore, Li Yinghong didn't want to go back to the sleeping tent, but took his sword and walked out of the big tent, the cold wind blew on Li Yinghong's face, and his unkempt brain was also a lot clearer. It was late at night, and due to the cold weather, most of the people had already fallen asleep, except for a few soldiers who were keeping vigil. Li Yinghong walked around the camp for a while, and unconsciously came to the camp gate, so he walked out of the camp.

The soldiers guarding the camp gate only asked two questions, and when Li Yinghong said that she wanted to walk casually, he didn't stop her.
