Standing on a high place, looking at the entire Xianbei city, the sporadic fires are very dazzling.

Even more striking was the wailing of the soldiers' pain, yes, wailing.

Even if he wins, the heavy casualties make Li Yi unhappy, but the war is like this, even if you have the advantage, you will suffer heavy losses.

Raise your head and look at the gray night, where the sky is full of black fog, as if it will snow heavily in the next moment.

It's really a prairie winter, and it snows all the time.

Behind Li Yi, Li Ru and Jia Xu walked out silently, came to his side, and put on a leather coat for him to shield him from the cold wind blowing.

"Lord, it's not early, go back and rest." Li Ru said lightly.

"Well, do the soldiers have a place to live? Is there enough firewood for them? Li Yi nodded, did not act but asked rhetorically.

"Lord, everything is ready, this casualty is nothing." Li Ru smiled, but his smile was a little ugly.

"Whew." Looking at Li Ru's smiling face, Li Yi almost laughed, highlighted a breath of turbidity, and turned around slowly.

After entering the grassland for almost a month, the original army of 100 million was only 30 million at the moment, and most of them were wounded, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.

Looking at the night now, the heavy snow is about to fall, which is really a disaster, but his goal has finally been achieved, that is, to destroy the third city of Xianbei, successfully expand the scope on the map, and have rich combat experience.

Next time, it won't be like this.

Walking into the house, Jia Xu closed the doors and windows casually, and the howling cold wind blew on the window and made a "squeak" sound, if it was a child, it was estimated that he would cry in fright.

When I came to the wall of fire, I picked up a piece of wood and threw it in, and the fire instantly exploded, and the temperature increased a lot.

Under the fire, Li Yi's face was red, like a boiled prawn.

"Wen You Wenhe, did that guy ask out?" Li Yi suddenly asked.

This question made the two who were about to leave the room stop, glanced at each other, and Jia Xu spoke.

"Lord, that guy's mouth is very tight, and it takes time." Jia Xu and Li Ru's faces were a little unhappy.

The person Li Yi asked was the city lord of the third city of Xianbei, his name was "Ta Gezi", when the army attacked the city, he was ready to escape, but was discovered by Zhao Yun, estimated to be a big official, and then captured.

When the battle was over, an interrogation revealed the identity of his city lord, thanks to the power of the artifact Sun Tzu's Art of War.

But when he wanted to interrogate further, he suddenly found that there was a mysterious force that blocked the power of Sun Tzu's Art of War, and he couldn't forcibly ask for it, so he had to use some conventional means, and Jia Xu was proficient in these methods.

It's a pity that the city lord is very hard-mouthed, and he didn't say anything after interrogating him for a long time, which made Jia Xu very embarrassed.

Considering Ta Gezi's physique, a long interrogation can kill him, so it will take time.

But Li Yi couldn't wait, as long as he got the news, the purpose of his coming to the grassland would be over, and he could go back directly.

All that's left is to find out the location of the other Xianbei cities, and then wait until next year to fight.

"Well, tell me about the army." Li Yi nodded and asked again.

"At present, there are 31.5 million soldiers left in the army, and 18 million soldiers have been killed or wounded in this battle, and ......about 1 million are missing," Jia Xu said again.

This is the third time in the past few days, every time Li Yi is in a bad mood, he will ask, and then remind him and them that this battle is difficult, and use this as a whip, you can't take it lightly, you need to go all out in every battle.

By the time Jia Xu finished speaking, Li Yi was already asleep, looking at the sleeping lord, the two quietly walked out and gently closed the door.

……

Early the next morning, Li Yi opened his eyes early, lifted the blanket on his body, came to the window, and gently pushed it open.

"Whew......" The cold wind and snow suddenly came in, making Li Yi tremble, and hurriedly closed the window, and the wind and snow disappeared.

But after a while, the temperature in the house plummeted, and he felt that the temperature was unpleasant, Li Yi came to the fire wall, threw in several pieces of wood, and the burning fire made the temperature rise.

Sitting on the chair, Li Yi's mind was empty, now it must be snowing heavily, and the trip was blocked again.

With such heavy snowfall, snow wolves will definitely breed, whether it is returning or advancing, it is not a good deed, without the protection of the city wall, it is simply a death.

Now you can't bury the lives of the soldiers in vain, especially the soldiers after the battle, as long as they are given time, the overall combat effectiveness will soar, and even some lucky ones will be promoted, maybe they will be promoted continuously.

Open the Properties panel and look at the properties of the army.

Before starting from the grassland, the average level of the army was seventy, but now, it is already seventy-five, a full five levels, and there are still many of them are eighty brave levels, they are all soldiers at the forefront of every battle, and the level of survival will soar.

Only by staying by his side and protecting his own soldiers, the level will not be improved much, and the tens of millions of soldiers who protect themselves will be promoted by two levels at most, and there is even no upgrade.

It looks like these people are going to be swapped out and some of the battle-hardened ones to rest.

With that in mind, the door opened.

"Crunch ......" orange light appeared, and a quaint oil lamp appeared in front of Li Yi's eyes.

Behind the oil lamp was Zhao Yun's somewhat delicate face, and the sturdy Lu Bu behind him, the two of them walked in not wearing armor, but in plain clothes.

"Zilong Fengxian, why are you two here?" Looking at the appearance of the two, Li Yi was a little strange, he didn't understand how the two of them got together, you must know that their patrols were separate.

Suddenly, remembering the heavy snow outside, I laughed at myself.

It was snowing heavily, and there were still enemies there, and the city gates had been sealed, and as soon as there was an enemy, the sound was the best way to patrol it.

"Lord, isn't it boring? I'm looking for you to talk, and by the way, can you drink? Lu Bu looked at Li Yi with a smile on his face.

It seemed that Li Yi would not leave if he didn't agree, and when he heard Lu Bu's words, Li Yi knew what they were coming for, that is, to drink.

I didn't drink alcohol to keep warm on a snowy day, so I guess the two of them were unhappy.

After staying in this city for a few days, patrolling every day, I have long been tired of it, no, Lu Bu is like this, but what about Zhao Yun?

"No, you can't drink alcohol on the march, or you'll be punished for not drinking for a year." With a wicked smile, Li Yi vetoed Lu Bu's words.

"Oh, lord, just let me take a small sip, a small sip is, if someone is not convinced, let him come to me, I will beat him until he is convinced." As he spoke, Lu Bu raised his arm, and the bulging muscles were the best proof of this.

Imagined it in his mind, thinking that other generals would go to Lu Bu for comments, and then be beaten by Lu Bu, it is estimated that this is his idea, in Lu Bu's heart, fighting is more refreshing than drinking.

Ignoring Lu Bu's dese, he looked at Zhao Yun.

"Zilong, what are you here for? Don't tell me you're in league with this guy? ”

"Well, I'm not here to drink, I just want to go out and fight, I want to get used to the battle on the grassland, I haven't tried to fight in such an environment, I want to find a feeling." Zhao Yun said truthfully.

Hearing Zhao Yun's words, Lu Bu was stunned, and without waiting for Li Yi to answer, he spoke instantly.

"Wow, why didn't I think of it, it seems that Zilong is still smart, since you can't drink, then go to the enemy, that snow wolf king kill it, it must be very cool, lord, let us go." The surging battle intent began to rise, and Lu Bu changed his mind in an instant.

Tilting his head, Li Yi pondered for a while, and found that Zilong's idea was still good, and it was not impossible for the two of them to go out.

If you can kill the Snow Wolf King, you will definitely have a good harvest, especially if you haven't heard of the snow wolf breed in your previous life, at most it is just a steppe wolf, which is very strange.

It is estimated that the player who died under the mouth of the snow wolf did not make a noise and wanted to make money in turn, but every time he returned with a feather, and over time, no one went to the grassland in winter.

"Okay, otherwise we have to divide into two groups, the two of you will lead the others to fight outside, increase their combat experience, and guide them by the way, so that they can advance early, there are still too few top generals under my command." Since the two of them have an idea, let them go to battle with many generals.

Anyway, being idle is idle, giving them some fun, and letting the soldiers rest well and relieve the pain caused by the war.

After getting Li Yi's order, Zhao Yun and Lu Bu went out to fight, and determined the order in which the two went out.

According to the victory of the battle, Lu Bu was the first to go out to fight, followed by several eight strong generals.

Zhao Yun needs to wait until Lu Bu comes back, and the time is three days, followed by Gao Lan, Zhang He and others.

The two teams entered the city in batches and slaughtered the snow wolves in the heavy snow, and the corpses they killed became the rations for the soldiers.

Not to mention, the taste of snow wolf meat is not bad, it is more chewy than some beef and mutton, and it is more delicious.

However, the killing speed of many generals obviously can't keep up with the appetite of the soldiers' jokes, and there are too many of them.

Each snow wolf weighs at least 100 catties, removing the bones and some parts that cannot be swallowed, it can die about ten catties, and every time it returns, many generals can bring back tens of thousands of corpses, and then eat only bones in less than a quarter of an hour.

These meats almost caused a riot among the soldiers, who wanted to go out to hunt the snow wolves and bring the meat to the other soldiers.

It's a pity that their strength is still a little worse, unless they have Li Ru's skills, otherwise going out is to die, and there is still a big gap between them and the snow wolf, unless they have a brave level of combat power, in order to defeat the opponent one-on-one in a heavy snow environment.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed again, and it is not long before the New Year.

There are only three days left, and Li Yi can't go back this year, but he doesn't care, when he is bored, he has already sent a message to Xiaowei and Daring Fearless, asking them to do as instructed.

First seduced the Nian Beast, then expelled it, increasing his prestige, and the rest was to send some gifts to the other princes, which was regarded as New Year's blessings, and also to give gifts to the officials of Youzhou, in short, a series of orders were issued to them, which was enough for them to be busy.

Dauntless doesn't feel anything, while Xiaowei is very happy that she finally has something to do.
