Chapter 153: Out of the City

"I'm sure we're going to win, so keep your spirits up." Xiao Li rubbed in the direction of Hui Shangyi, sat beside him, and whispered comforting.

Hui Shangyi also knew that the matter had come to this, and it was useless for him to insist, at least Xiao Li had made concessions to himself, this matter could only be done like this, although he regretted it, but there was nothing he could do.

The atmosphere between the two people was a little silent, each with their own ideas, Xiao Li was a little more relaxed, although he couldn't stop Hui Shangyi's thoughts, but he finally gave things a buffer.

"We do have the upper hand in the current situation, but there are still some problems." After a while, Hui Shangyi seemed to recover from the blow and took the lead in speaking.

"What's the problem?" Xiao Li followed his words and asked, so as to pass over the topic.

During the time they went to the front line, except for a small wave of enemy troops at the beginning, everything else was very smooth, it can be said that it was windy and rainy, and Xiao Li was almost successful in studying the trench defense line.

But at this time, Hui Shangyi even asked other questions, wasn't he the most confident just now?

"The terrain, we must not be as familiar with the terrain here as they are, otherwise we wouldn't have encountered a surprise attack before." Hui Shangyi sighed, he had been thinking about this for many days.

Although the strength of their army is indeed very strong now, if the other side occupies a favorable position, then this battle will become very difficult.

Immediately afterwards, he told Xiao Li about his experience in fighting with the enemy over the years, as well as his analysis of the situation between the two sides this time, which also broadened Xiao Li's thinking a lot.

"Indeed, you are right, and trench warfare also requires favorable terrain." Xiao Li nodded approvingly. I have to say that in terms of fighting, Hui Shangyi still seems to be much more sophisticated than her.

And she, in addition to contributing her own combat power, is at best a military advisor role like Xie Yunxiu, and the real decision is still made by Hui Shangyi herself.

"So, I'm going to go out of the city and scout the surrounding terrain with the scouts." Hui Shangyi picked up a small pebble and threw it at the water.

The pebble jumped out as if it had landed on top of an elastic cloth, leaving ripples in circles.

This is a lot of fun he used to play when he was a child, but he hasn't done it for many years, because he doesn't have this leisure at all, but it's not rusty at all.

"What? Why didn't you tell me before? Xiao Li was taken aback when he heard him say these words with a disapproving face.

She wasn't against Hui Shangyi and the scouts going out to explore the terrain, but it was too sudden, and she hadn't heard anyone say it before, so she was taken aback.

And it's definitely not a very safe thing to do, and the first to explore the path is the most dangerous.

"I was going to tell you about the credit for you first, but I forgot about it." Hui Shangyi scratched his head a little embarrassed, if he hadn't just been strongly opposed by Xiao Li and had to change his plan, I'm afraid he wouldn't have remembered this by now.

"When are you leaving?" Xiao Li frowned and asked.

"Tomorrow afternoon." Hui Shangyi hesitated for a moment, but finally honestly explained his plan.

"So fast?" Xiao Li was taken aback again, "Then I'll go with you." ”

To be honest, she didn't worry about Hui Shangyi going out of the city to explore the terrain, because after all, he was the main general, the soul of an army, and there must be no accidents, even if there were scouts following, she still felt that she was more relieved to watch it personally.

"It may be dangerous, what are you making a fuss about?" Hui Shangyi glanced at her and tapped her lightly on the head.

When he left the city this time, he didn't know what kind of things he would encounter, and he couldn't say for sure if he was attacked by the enemy army, although he had been as careful as possible not to let anyone know that he was about to leave the city.

"But......" Xiao Li's face was full of worry, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed it.

Because she suddenly remembered the situation when she fell behind with Hui Shangyi last time, it seemed that she was the one who caused the chaos, maybe it would not be helpful to follow the past, and it would even become a burden.

So, she had to put away the idea that she would go out of the city with her, and if she had that kung fu, it was better to stay in the barracks and continue to study the use of the trenches, which could really help Hui Shangyi.

"Alright. I'll be careful, and I've done anything like this before. This time, it was Hui Shangyi who came to comfort Xiao Li, after all, he knew that Xiao Li would be like this because he cared about himself, and he was very moved in his heart.

But his face was indifferent, he was really used to such things, he hadn't experienced many thrilling scenes over the years, these were just trivial things.

The two agreed to keep this meeting secret, and they left separately, Hui Shangyi needless to say, he has a lot of things to do, and he has to prepare to go out of the city tomorrow, Xiao Li thought about it, and was going to go to Xie Yunxiu first.

After all, he also knew about persuading Hui Shangyi by himself, and it seemed necessary to report the results to him.

"So, even your words won't work this time?" After listening to Xiao Li's description, the smile on Xie Yunxiu's face became a little helpless. 31

It's not that he doesn't know Hui Shangyi's stubborn temper, but he didn't expect that this time it didn't even work for Xiao Li to come forward.

"However, I told him that if I wanted to take credit, I had to give my credit to the craftsmen who studied the catapults together." Xiao Li hurriedly added.

This is her final solution, if the hard one doesn't work, she can only come to the soft one.

Xie Yunxiu's expression changed from disappointment just now to a little surprised for a moment, and finally his eyes widened, and he said, "It's really a shame that you can think of it......"

"What's the problem?" Xiao Li thought that he had done something inappropriate, and asked curiously.

"No, no, no, you're doing a great job. Even I didn't expect that. Xie Yunxiu looked at Xiao Li with some appreciation and some surprise.

At this time, it is really useless for Hehui Shangyi to come hard, it is better to make a regression, so that everyone can have a step down, and the risk can be minimized, but this way, even he didn't think of it at first.

"Perhaps...... You also have some talent for being a military advisor. Xie Yunxiu muttered quietly, although she felt a little unconvinced, but it was indeed a true idea.

At first, he really didn't look down on Xiao Li from the bottom of his heart, but since the establishment of the Women's Army, Xiao Li has done too many things that impressed him, and sometimes he really has to admire.

"Huh? What did you say? Say it again. Xiao Li pretended not to hear, but the smug smile on her face had betrayed her heart.

"Hmph." Xie Yunxiu snorted coldly, put away his folding fan, and left flutteringly.

Only Xiao Li sighed in place, they have known each other for so many years, and they know each other, this Xie Yunxiu still likes to pretend so much.

In the afternoon of the next day, Hui Shangyi was going to go out of the city with scouts to explore the terrain according to the original plan.

Since they were all absolutely secretive about this matter, no one came to see them off except Xiao Li.

Hui Shangyi was dressed in a very simple manner, and at first glance he did look like an ordinary flat-headed person, but if he looked closely, he could still see the extraordinary temperament between his eyebrows, which made him stand above everyone at once.

Because of this secret investigation, their identities must not be recognized, so their dress is mainly simple, and their weapons are deliberately disguised, and they must not be taken out until the critical moment.

Seeing this posture, Xiao Li couldn't help but worry even more, this time out of the city was very dangerous.

These two people are not armed at all, although they can greatly reduce the vigilance of others, but for themselves, they are really risky, and if something happens, they can only resist.

But she knew that she couldn't stop it, someone had to take this risk now, and Hui Shangyi, as the main general, had this responsibility.

Xiao Li walked up to Hui Shangyi, carefully tidied up his collar, and then handed him some medicines that he had prepared in advance the day before.

"What is this?" Hui Shangyi was a little surprised.

"Just in case, I almost suffered a loss in the cave before." Xiao Li gave him some conventional medicines for the treatment of wind and cold, and with the lessons of the past, he would naturally be careful this time.

"Thank you, lady." Hui Shangyi felt warm in his heart, and put the package given by Xiao Li into the pocket closest to his chest, revealing a gentle smile.

Xiao Li felt a little numb, especially when the scout was still watching from the side, and coughed a little embarrassed.

"Well, you must come back safely." After a while, she couldn't help but admonish a little awkwardly.

Hui Shangyi felt a little funny in his heart when he saw Xiao Li worried about himself but twisted it, and hugged her as if she were in his arms very lovingly, and rubbed his chin on her head habitually.

"Don't worry, I'll come back alive."

Xiao Li only felt that he was surrounded by a fiery temperature for a moment, as if he was about to melt away, and his face turned red.

Although it was not the first time that Hui Shangyi had hugged her in front of others, every time she felt shy.

But this time, she didn't push Hui Shangyi away like before, but let him hold him, which can be regarded as a disguised encouragement for Hui Shangyi.

It wasn't until a long time later that the scout next to him coughed awkwardly several times, and the two reluctantly separated.

Hui Shangyi skillfully turned over and rode on the horse, looked down at Xiao Li, and said, "Wait for me to come back!" ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Li nodded very firmly, listening to the sound of the horse's hooves gradually getting farther and farther away, before returning to his tent.
