As for Li Yi's reminder, Yadi also listened to it in his heart. When he spread his body, he followed Li Yi and ran forward.

Li Yi, who left the large army, was very careful to investigate along the way. However, what puzzled Li Yi was that when he passed through two cities that were supposed to belong to the Yanlong Legion, Li Yi found that there was not even a little garrison in the city, and there were no soldiers guarding the city even on the city walls. The two cities were just closed gates, but Li Yi knew that if an enemy wanted to forcibly capture the city now, he only needed to send a squadron of 100 people, and he should be able to occupy it.

Thinking about it, Li Yi couldn't figure out why this was happening. Later, when he was about to arrive in Xicheng, Li Yi guessed that the reason why the previous two cities did not have defensive forces should be related to the current difficulty in Xicheng. If her guess was correct, Bettina and the others should have known that someone was going to attack Creek City. And the strength of the enemy attacking Xicheng should not be very weak, so in order to defend Xicheng well, Bettina and they should have concentrated the forces of the Yanlong Legion scattered throughout Zhongba Province in Xicheng. Although this is equivalent to giving the remaining five cities to others, it is better than being destroyed by the enemy one by one.

With such speculation in his heart, Li Yi was even more worried about the situation in Xicheng at this time.

So the closer he got to Xicheng, the more vigilant Li Yi became.

And just as Li Yi was cautiously moving forward, he suddenly found that not far ahead, there were several very secretive soldiers patrolling nearby.

Li Yi's eyesight is naturally very amazing, so although Li Yi saw the other party, the other party did not find Li Yi.

exchanged glances with Yadi, and Li Yi knew that Yadi had also discovered the patrols in front. After carefully checking the surroundings again, he found that there should be no other enemies here except for a few patrols in the distance.

Li Yi and Yadi lowered their bodies a few points again, and then tiptoed towards the patrolmen.

After easily eliminating these patrols, Li Yi did not let Yadi go back to deliver the message, but continued to investigate with Yadi.

And since they got rid of those patrols, Li Yi and Yadi have continued to find patrols hiding on the side of the road. If it weren't for Li Yi and Yadi's extraordinary strength, it would have been difficult for ordinary scouts to find this kind of hidden excellent patrol.

After a short and half a day, Li Yi and Yadi could finally faintly see the walls of Xicheng.

But when Li Yi saw the city walls of Xicheng, he also discovered the situation outside Xicheng.

At this time, there were more than 200,000 enemy soldiers around Xicheng. If it weren't for the size of Xicheng, the enemy forces outside Xicheng would be able to completely surround Xicheng now.

Looking at the situation in front of him, Li Yi said lightly to Yadi beside him: "Alas, it seems that the danger in Xicheng this time is really not small. ”

Letting Yadi continue to observe the situation on the periphery of Xicheng, Li Yi turned around and ran backwards.

Li Yi knew that in the face of this situation, even if his troops launched a suicidal charge, it would be impossible to relieve much pressure on Xicheng. Now Li Yi must let his troops stop marching, if an enemy is accidentally discovered by the enemy surrounding Xicheng, then the cavalry team that Li Yi just got will probably have to be destroyed here.

After seeing Li Yi hurrying back, Mel immediately stepped forward and asked, "Commander, how is the situation ahead, is Xicheng still saved?" Mel also saw some clues from Li Yi's frowning brows, so when he opened his mouth to ask, he directly asked whether Xicheng was still saved.

Hearing Mel's question, Li Yi could only smile bitterly. After standing still, Li Yi said solemnly: "Alas, the current situation in Xicheng is even worse than I imagined. Now there are more than 200,000 enemy troops of unknown origin on the periphery of Xicheng, although they have not launched an attack on Xicheng, but we want to use this little man in our hands to relieve the siege of Xicheng, it is really difficult to reach the sky. ”

Hearing Li Yi say this, Mel couldn't help frowning. The army of 200,000 people, even in the Tianlan Empire back then, was a big force. Faced with the current situation, Mel couldn't think of any good way for a while. So Mel could only choose to remain silent and set his eyes on Li Yi to see what his old head wanted to do at such a time.

And when Li Yi and Mel were silent, Lincoln said to Li Yi on the side: "Li Yi, otherwise, a few of us will rush into the enemy camp and kill them, although we can't guarantee the total annihilation of the enemy army, but bring them some trouble, we can still do this." ”

Hearing Lincoln's suggestion, Li Yi could only shake his head helplessly. Lincoln's idea was good, but in this kind of 10,000-strong battle, the power of the individual is too thin. And the reason why Lincoln dared to say this was because when they first arrived in Jingchuan Province before, they wiped out hundreds of soldiers of the Rhone Legion with just four people.

Shaking his head, Li Yi said to Lincoln: "Lincoln, you still underestimate these ordinary soldiers too much. Of course, their individual strength is categorically incomparable to ours. But if there are many, many of them, even to the current level of 200,000, then our power will not be able to be truly exerted. If a few of us rushed into the enemy army with some strength now, we would be able to kill many enemies in a short time. But when we want to retreat, it's not that simple. ”

"Hehe, in fact, I understand all these truths, but now in addition to this, I really can't think of any other way to solve the crisis in Xicheng. You can't just rush at them with these cavalry under your command, in that case we might as well try our luck. Seeing that Li Yi vetoed his proposal, Lincoln also reluctantly explained a few words to himself.

Li Yi also knew that Lincoln had good intentions, so after vetoing Lincoln's proposal, Li Yi also cast an apologetic look at Lincoln.

Looking back at the direction where Wangxi City was located, Li Yi said to Mel: "We'd better be cautious first, you retreat with your troops now." On the way here, I saw a grove of trees, and you let our men hide in the woods first. In the evening, I will go to Creek City to investigate the situation, and when we have figured out the situation, we will take a long-term view. ”

For Li Yi's method of seeking stability, Mel is also strongly in favor. After all, many of the subordinates he brought out this time were old comrades-in-arms who rebelled from the Tianlan Empire with him back then. If these people were sacrificed in vain because of a moment of whim, Mel would not be able to accept it.

So after receiving Li Yi's order, Mel retreated back the way he came.

Just as Mel and his troops were about to evacuate, Yadi, who had stayed on the outskirts of Creek City to observe the situation, suddenly returned.

"What's wrong Yadi, what's going on?" After Yadi came to his side, Li Yi immediately asked.

"Li Yi, the enemy outside Xicheng has launched an attack on Xicheng." Yadi's words were very simple, but they also directly brought back the worst news to Li Yi.

"Alas, what should have come has come, and now we can only hope that Bettina and they will be able to hold on. Mel, you hurry up and take people to hide, since the other party has already begun to attack the city, then I will also go and see if I can find an opportunity to enter the city. With that, Li Yi unfolded his body and ran in the direction of Xicheng.

When Li Yi rushed to the outskirts of Xicheng again, he found that the situation here was completely different from when he came just now.

I saw that the enemy outside Xicheng was slowly approaching Xicheng in a neat formation, holding round shields, and resisting the attacks of the archers on the walls of Xicheng.

But after all, the Yanlong Legion was sitting in Xicheng, and although the enemy's offensive was fierce, with the advantage of defense, it was still difficult for the enemy to gain an advantage for a while.

From Yadi telling Li Yi that the enemy was attacking the city, to Li Yi rushing to the side of Xicheng. The enemy who attacked Xicheng has not yet attacked the city of Xicheng, and the Yanlong Legion can hover with the enemy for a long time just by relying on the city wall.

Seeing this situation, Li Yi also temporarily put his mind at ease. According to this situation, at least until this evening, the enemy will not be able to conquer Creek City.

However, looking at the current situation in Xicheng, in the face of the pressure of a strong enemy, Xicheng is now on the highest level of alert. Even the other city gates that were not attacked were also heavily guarded, so it was even more difficult for Li Yi to sneak into the city at such a time.

Seeing that there was no hope of entering the city, but the enemy could not conquer Xicheng for the time being. Li Yi was a little less impatient for a while, but adjusted his mentality, hid his figure, and watched the battle in front of him.

But after watching it for a while, Li Yi felt bored. The besieging side made it clear that they wanted to pave the way into the city with their lives, and the besieging commanders sent soldiers to the city of Xicheng in waves. It was only noon, and the corpses piled up under the city of Xicheng were about to form a hill.

It seems that seeing that such a blind assault will only waste the lives of their own soldiers, after another period of unsuccessful assault, the besieging party decisively ordered the withdrawal of troops.

Seeing this situation, Li Yi really couldn't cry or laugh. At this time, Li Yi really wanted to see who the commander who presided over the siege of the city was. When fighting on the march, the most fearful thing is to change the plan temporarily. Since he has chosen to attack, when the defenders of the city are already showing fatigue, they can still choose to withdraw their troops. In this case, the soldiers who died before were really unjustly killed. Because as soon as the troops were withdrawn in this way, the little advantage that had been accumulated with great difficulty became gone. If you are ready to continue the assault in the coming day, then you have to start from scratch.

However, it is the besieging party, that is, Li Yi's enemy, that is, that this situation is happening now. Seeing the enemy make such a stupid mistake, Li Yi was also happy to snicker on the side. Sometimes, God-like enemies are worthy of fear. But if there is a pig-like enemy who sends it to the door himself, then he should also take it all with a smile.

Seeing that both sides have died down, the posture is ready to take a long-term view. Li Yi hid his figure a little more secretly, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, just waiting for the sunset, looking for a good opportunity to enter the city to meet Bettina.

And the development of things was exactly as Li Yi imagined, when night fell, Li Yi quietly flew out of his hiding place.

Relying on his exquisite body technique, in just a few minutes, Li Yi successfully sneaked under the walls of Xicheng. No one took back the bodies of the besieging soldiers who died under the walls of Xicheng during the day, and when Li Yi approached, he was instantly dizzy by a strong smell of blood.

Although Li Yi has killed a lot of people, he can't stand this fishy smell after all.

Ignoring these corpses, Li Yi held his breath, picked a place where no one was around, and then rose up and climbed the city wall neatly.

From beginning to end, Li Yi did not alarm any of the soldiers defending the city. Although both sides are now in a state of war, the soldiers defending the city are also fighting in the spirit of twelve. But with Li Yi's strength, it is not difficult to enter the city without knowing it.

Because he had been to Xicheng once before, Li Yi also knew the structure in Xicheng.

After jumping off the city wall, Li Yi walked towards the City Lord's Mansion in Xicheng with ease according to his previous experience.

In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, after coming to the door of the City Lord's Mansion, Li Yi did not step forward to greet the guards at the door. Instead, he continued to jump over the wall and jumped into the City Lord's Mansion.

After entering the mansion, Li Yi immediately saw the lights in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion. Seeing that the lights were still on there, Li Yi knew that it should be the upper echelons of the Yanlong Legion who were still discussing the battle situation. And as Bettina is, she should be able to be there now.

So after Li Yi inspected for a week, he tiptoed in the direction of the main hall again. When he came to the door of the main hall, it was too difficult for Li Yi to enter without knowing it. However, since he has come here, Li Yi has no intention of continuing to hide.

Walked out of the shadows generously, and under the surprised eyes of the two guards, Li Yi walked up to the two with a smile and said, "Two soldiers, can you help me go in and report it, saying that Li Yi has something to see, presumably there should be people in the hall who know me." ”

Seeing Li Yi's fearless appearance, one of the guards just wanted to scold Li Yi. But just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by another guard.

The vision of the other guard was much stronger than this, and he could figure out that Li Yi could come to the City Lord's Mansion at such a time unknowingly, and he must be a person with superior strength. And when he entered the City Lord's Mansion without anyone knowing, he didn't do anything evil, so he naturally didn't have any bad intentions towards the Yanlong Legion. Since the other party has been strict, they just need to tell them, and they, who are guards, just go in and say it. As for how to deal with things after that, the adults inside will naturally be able to deal with it.

So after grabbing his companion, the other guard said to Li Yi to wait a while, then turned around and walked towards the main hall.

And it didn't take long for Li Yi to hear the footsteps of several people in the hall. After hearing the footsteps, Li Yi guessed that someone in the main hall should have come out with the guards after hearing the guard's briefing.

As Li Yi thought, when Li Yi didn't wait long outside the hall, Bettina walked out with the guards.

"Li Yi, it's really you, I thought you wouldn't come." After walking outside the hall and just seeing Li Yi, Bettina barely squeezed out a smile and said to Li Yi.

"Hehe, how could it be, after receiving your superstition, I rushed back with someone. As a result, as soon as I arrived at Xicheng, I found that the other party had already begun to attack the city. No way, I only waited until now to come in. "Look
