Chapter 102: Return to Qisu
The next morning, Xiao Li got up early in the morning and packed up his things in an orderly manner. After everything was cleaned up, it was already dawn.
After breakfast, Xiao Li and Fang Xiong set off. Wei Yanwu specially arranged two fast horses for them, and also prepared a lot of food and clothing.
Xiao Li took them one by one, got on the horse and planned to leave. But as soon as she left the palace gate, she saw a large number of people. They surrounded the palace gate, and Xiao Li had no choice but to pull the reins and let the horse stop.
The people were holding a lot of things in their hands, and when they saw Xiao Li, they all stepped forward and wanted to give her the things in their hands. Xiao Li was sweating profusely, looking at such enthusiastic people and not knowing what to do.
"Holy Maiden, take my things!"
The people below were still fighting with each other, as if Xiao Li had obtained the highest glory by taking their things.
Xiao Li couldn't cry or laugh, and looked at Wei Yanwu. I don't know who spread the news that she was leaving today, but she can only stay where she is now.
The sound of horses' hooves sounded behind them, and Xiao Li looked back to see that it was the king of Xiliang. Her petite body contrasts sharply with the massive body of a horse, and her little red face makes people like it.
Seeing that Xiao Li was still at the palace gate, he stopped his horse and said: "Finally arrived, Gu asked the people to see you off, Gu was almost late." ”
Xiao Li had a helpless smile on his lips, it turned out to be the King of Xiliang. She did this just to keep her, but she had to go.
When the people saw the king of Xiliang, they knelt down to greet the king of Xiliang. Wei Yanwu was still injured on his body, and was allowed by the King of Xiliang not to give a greeting gift.
"Go back, all of you." Xiao Li was silent for a while before speaking, looking at them apologetically.
When the people heard this, they began to hand things again, but Xiao Li didn't answer: "You give me so much, I can't take it." I appreciate your kindness, thank you. ”
As he spoke, Xiao Li bowed to them. The king of Xiliang didn't say much, but just asked the people to stop.
The people got out of the way and let Xiao Li and them pass. Xiao Li didn't dare to look back when she left, she was afraid that when she turned around, she would see those eyes that held her.
King Xiliang and Wei Yanwu sent Xiao Li to the forest, and then King Xiliang left before he had to deal with state affairs.
"What are you going to do in the future?" Xiao Li held the reins in his hand and looked at Wei Yanwu with raised eyebrows.
I saw that there was no change on his demonic face, but there was a lack of charm from before: "This son is in Xiliang, and the king is still too young, and she needs someone to assist her." ”
Xiao Li nodded, now that Wei Yanwu has lost everything he has, he has no heart to go to the mountains and rivers.
"Wei Yanwu, take good care of yourself." She suddenly patted Wei Yanwu's shoulder with a solemn face, and said earnestly.
Wei Yanwu laughed "poof", his amber eyes were full of smiles: "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine!" ”
Hearing Wei Yanwu's words, Xiao Li was relieved. was about to leave Xiliang with Fang Xiong, who was in a daze beside him, but was stopped by Wei Yanwu again.
"If you can, help Ji Yue detoxify too." There was a hint of pleading in Wei Yanwu's tone.
Xiao Li turned his head, nodded, and then rode away from Xiliang with Fang Xiong. The forest that was terrifying before is now a piece of cake for them.
It didn't take long for them to get out of the woods. The sun was shining, Xiao Li lay on the back of the horse, and closed his eyes with great enjoyment.
"You're really going to enjoy it!" Fang Xiong quipped on the side. Xiao Li didn't speak, his eyes were still closed.
Fang Xiong grabbed the reins, stopped and hesitated for a while: "Xiao Li'er, don't leave it at that!" ”
Xiao Li stood up with a carp, looking at Fang Xiong with a puzzled and worried expression.
Fang Xiong waved his hand, and then beat his chest with his right hand and said, "Don't worry, the old man will always be alive, maybe longer than you!" Goodbye, little Li'er! ”
With that, Fang Xiong turned his horse's head around and walked in another direction. Xiao Li shook his head and smiled helplessly. After saying goodbye to Fang Xiong, Xiao Li hurried to Qisu.
A few days later, Xiao Li finally arrived at Qisu. She heard the fighting from a distance, and sped up again.
I saw the women's army fighting those men on the battlefield mercilessly one by one, but the women's army had the upper hand. Xiao Li didn't care so much, and threw it out with the meniscus knife.
Several female soldiers were rescued by Xiao Li, and they looked at Xiao Li with eyes full of gratitude and excitement, and Xiao Li had no time to take care of joining the battle.
The battle lasted for a long time, and after some hard fighting, they finally won the victory. The women's army was enthusiastic, first, they won the battle, and secondly, Xiao Li, who had been away for a long time, came back.
Hui Fu.
Wu had been frowning, staring at the map on the table and letting out a sigh.
"Mother, what's wrong?" As soon as Xiao Li returned to the Hui Mansion, he went directly to the courtyard of the Wu family, and when he saw her sighing, he asked questions.
Wu looked up and saw Xiao Li walking towards her, with a little joy in her eyes, but she quickly turned her attention to the map again. chamberlain
"Recently, Zheng Guo's army has attacked us violently for some reason." Wu said, telling her everything that had happened in the time that Xiao Li had left.
Xiao Li pondered for a while, propped up the table with his hands on a serious face and said, "Hui Shangyi's letter wrote that the battle of Dugu Yinyizhou always loses. So they want to take Qisu first. ”
Wu Shi listened to the reason, nodded approvingly, and analyzed the current form.
"Now we need to defend Qisu well, maybe Duguyin will give up Yizhou and attack Qisu instead, and it just so happens that now they have been defeating the battle." Xiao Li gestured on the map, wanting to make the Wu clan more aware of the current situation.
Outside the city of Yizhou, Zheng Guo military camp.
Dugu Yin was reading the war book, and when he heard the information that his subordinates had lost the war, he began to get angry.
After two years of fighting, they still haven't made any progress, even in the surrounding towns.
What a failure!
"Go and call Mr. Yu!" Dugu Yin calmed down, now is not the time to lose his temper, he needs to capture Yizhou and Qisu.
Emperor Zheng Guo also wrote a secret edict to inquire about the situation, but his performance made the emperor's trust in him gradually fade.
Yu Zhuoqi walked into the tent unhurriedly, and looked polite. Seeing Yu Zhuoqi's indifferent face, Dugu Yin was a little annoyed.
Dugu Yin raised his eyebrows and looked at Yu Zhuoqi, and said with a dissatisfied expression: "Mr. Yu, you look very relaxed." ”
Yu Zhuoqi smiled, still personable, different from these rough men in the army: "General, Xiaosheng just wants to live every day." ”
Dugu Yin frowned, very dissatisfied with such a person: "Sir, we have lost battles one after another, we need to speed up our pace, otherwise it will be difficult for General Ben to report to the emperor." ”
Yu Zhuoqi naturally knew what Dugu Yin was worried about, and now he could only gamble.
"General, let's go attack Qisu." Yu Zhuoqi hesitated for a moment, but still proposed.
Dugu Yin didn't speak, bowed his head and thought. The current situation is not optimistic, and it is definitely not possible to continue attacking Yizhou. If we attack from another place now, maybe it will be possible.
Qi Su now except for the Niangzi Army, most of the troops are in Yizhou to compete with them. If they do their best, they will definitely take it!
Yu Zhuoqi saw that Dugu Yin didn't speak for a long time, so he knew that Dugu Yin agreed to his proposal: "General, we have to stay here this time to confuse Hui Shangyi and them." ”
Dugu Yin looked up at Yu Zhuoqi and didn't understand why Yu Zhuoqi did this.
"If we attack Qisu with great fanfare, Hui Shangyi will definitely not let us get to Qisu so easily." Yu Zhuoqi smiled, looked at Dugu Yin's puzzled face and explained, "The part of the people left behind dragged Hui Shangyi, and we led troops to surround Qisu, no matter how powerful they were, they couldn't get out!" ”
Dugu Yin looked at Yu Zhuoqi with appreciative eyes, such a meticulous mind is really too rare. If he can succeed this time, he will definitely reward Yu Zhuoqi.
So Dugu Yin prepared according to what Yu Zhuoqi said, and everything was sorted out that night. He took his soldiers to Qisu.
On this day, Xiao Li patrolled Qisu City according to the old rules. Suddenly, she spotted a puddle of black stuff on the ground. She dismounted and looked at it, but came to no conclusion, so she took it back a little.
After studying for a long time, Xiao Li guessed that this black thing should be oil. Xiao Li was overjoyed, he actually found the oil, and he was still in Qisu City.
Maybe Qisu is a place rich in oil! That's a lot to do, and you can win with that!
Dugu Yin didn't dare to delay more time on the road, so he rushed to Qisu as fast as possible, and then surrounded Qisu.
Early in the morning, Xiao Li learned the news that Qi Su was surrounded before he got dressed properly.
Her face changed dramatically, and she put on her clothes and armor, and came to the tower. I saw Duguyin sitting on a horse, looking at them with a smug look.
"Xiao Li, surrender!" Dugu Yin touched his beard and said with a smile, "You have been surrounded." ”
At this time, the Wu clan also arrived, but the situation was grim, and even if they resisted, it would be useless. Xiao Li didn't expect Dugu Yin to come so soon, so she was unprepared.
But Xiao Li couldn't surrender either, she replied with a serious face: "You shameless old thing, you don't have a door to let us surrender!" ”
When Dugu Yin heard Xiao Li's words, his face changed. This woman actually said this about him in front of so many people.
"Don't be strong here!" Dugu Yin narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to issue instructions to the soldiers.
The Zheng soldiers received instructions and roared to attack the city. The women's army was very calm, and immediately gathered the army and went out of the city to meet the battle.
But Zheng Guo is too strong to be defeated. Xiao Li was also scarred because of his hard work.
"Li'er, retreat!" The Wu clan couldn't resist either, and shouted at Xiao Li in a panic.
