But even so, Li Fu was still a little uneasy in his heart, after all, this was the first time he had received a red bar message from Qi after he led an army of 50,000 to the Xuanling Continent, and this kind of red bar news also indicated that 100,000 people were in a hurry. Moreover, this letter was also sent here from within the Qi State, which also shows that this is the current situation that was directly caused by what happened within the Qi State. Thinking of this, Li Fu didn't dare to continue thinking about it, he hurriedly took the letter from Yu Fei's hand, and only then did he open the letter and see the first line of news, his expression suddenly changed a lot, and it became cloudy.

Yu Fei had read this letter in advance, and it was from it that she learned the news from within the Qi Kingdom. Li Dan, the prime minister of Qi, personally wrote this letter to his son Li Fu, and the main thing mentioned in this was that Feng sent 100,000 troops to attack the interior of Qi in three ways. The Qi State now has insufficient troops, so it can only concentrate the troops that were originally scattered everywhere into a few important cities to temporarily retain the garrison. At present, Wei Xu, the governor of Mengcheng, led 30,000 troops to directly attack Huicheng, and Gongsun Yu, the governor of Lingcheng in the north, led 30,000 troops to attack Quecheng and the Xuanling River ferry, and Gongsun Yu personally led 5,000 elite soldiers to cross the Xuanling River and occupy the ferry on the opposite bank. In the middle of the road, the Holy Emperor personally led 40,000 troops out of the east Linguan, and once again marched into Ruocheng. For a while, all parts of the Qi country were in an emergency, and the available army in his hands was really not enough to resist the predicament in front of him, and Li Dan was helpless. While dispatching troops to try their best to prevent the feudal army from penetrating into the territory of Qi, he immediately sent a message to inform the news that he was still leading 30,000 troops and was besieging Li Fu in the city.

After reading this letter, Li Fu's eyes really flashed with helplessness and unwillingness. But he knew that he would inevitably not be able to choose at this time, the internal crisis of Qi State, no matter how great the temptation here was, it could not be compared with the internal security of Qi State. Even this matter did not need to seek Qian Rong's opinion, Li Fu immediately made a decision, he immediately called his own soldiers, ordered his own soldiers to give orders immediately, and each army immediately dispatched troops to escort grain and grass to prepare to retreat. At this time, Li Fu collected this letter, and the arrival of this letter is equivalent to saying that his withdrawal of troops is inevitable, and he does not think about it. The main thing he was thinking about now was how to force the country to recognize the sphere of influence they now occupied. Li Fu thought for a while, it really can't be done, they will return Thorn City and the thirteen county towns under the jurisdiction of Thorn City to leave the country, so that they may be able to exchange for the sincerity of leaving the country.

Li Fu fixed his eyes and glanced at the Yu Fei sitting opposite him in front of him, since he wanted to negotiate with the departure country, he would inevitably need a lobbyist to go here, and he was one of the people who knew Yu Fei better, he knew that this Ming saint was brave and knowledgeable, young and talented, and was definitely a young talent who could be put to good use. But because of her own background and the leader who led the last clansmen of the Ming clan to return to the Qi State, many of the choices she made were forced to do so. So, now she simply handed over this opportunity to Yu Fei, which is a good choice, I believe that with her courage and ability, she should be able to at least keep most of her interests.

As soon as this decision was made, Li Fu immediately said to Yu Fei in front of him: "Since the situation is so grim now, the prime minister's order has also come at the same time. Then we must immediately withdraw our troops and rush back to the Demon Spirit Continent to support, but the current situation here is also very important, even if we can't occupy the city now, we must retreat to the next best thing, try our best to negotiate with the country, and try our best to keep the three strategic places of Thorn City, Qicheng and Xiaoguan, including the southern half of the frontier. If you really can't negotiate, you will cede Thorn City and the more than ten county towns under the jurisdiction of Thorn City. Now that I think about it, only the Holy Maiden can help me with this vital task, and I wonder if the Holy Maiden is willing to help me with this?"

Yu Fei nodded and agreed without hesitation, she now heard that Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan's two siblings got away from the Qi army and went to visit and observe all over the Xuanling Continent, this kind of different and comfortable life made her and Nangong Yun and Lin Xuejun envious, they were looking for an opportunity to go to all parts of the Xuanling Continent to see and understand the situation, maybe they could find something worth paying attention to. Staying in Xiao Guan like this all day is indeed a boring thing for them. It's just the right thing to find something to do, and it's something they're looking forward to.

Yu Fei smiled and asked directly: "Is there so much that the general asks?

Yu Fei said this to mean that she agreed to the task proposed by Li Fu, which immediately made Li Fu overjoyed. There was only one strategist by his side, Qian Rong, who was a henchman he was reluctant to send out no matter what. Now that Yu Fei has said this, he can accept this favor along the way.

Li Fu took a golden token from his desk and handed it directly to Yu Fei's hand. At the same time, Li Fu also clasped his fists and said with a smile: "All this is handed over to the Holy Maiden! I need to immediately dispatch the army to prepare to return to the Demon Spirit Continent." ”

Yu Fei smiled, "Please rest assured, General, I will go to the departure camp immediately." I believe that the result will not disappoint the general. ”

Yu Fei turned around and went out, mounted the war horse he had ridden when he came here, and rushed out of the Qi camp with a whip, galloping directly towards the departure camp on the other side of the city.

Li Fu stood at the door of the Chinese army's tent and stared at Yu Fei's back in the distance, and then he immediately called the dozens of soldiers around him and said: "Quickly pass my password, order each army to be under the jurisdiction of a hundred people, and immediately order the soldiers under his command to pack up their bags, pack up logistics materials, grain and grass and load trucks." Assemble in front of the big tent of the Chinese army in an hour!" When he said this, Li Fu's face did not have his usual gentleness and calmness, and now his face revealed a helpless and even shocking seriousness.

"Yes!" Although the dozens of guards didn't know what was going on, they had rarely seen their master show such a serious expression, and the dozens of guards knew that something must have happened to make their master so serious. The dozens of guards immediately ran around and hurried to the camps everywhere to give orders.

Li Fu raised his head and stared at the faint silhouette of the city hidden in the morning light in the distance, just yesterday he was ready to use the firearms transported by Thorn City to destroy the city in one fell swoop. But now, it seems that all this has to be abandoned, which is really a helpless move. If he doesn't do this, I'm afraid he will suffer a lot of pressure now, including the pressure exerted by Qi State is enough to make Li Fu and his father Li Dan lose the support of the people.

At this time, Li Fu's henchman Qian Rong also heard the news and came here, and he saw the soldiers of each battalion who were packing their bags in full swing along the way, and he guessed a little bit of the approximate possibility in his heart. But he didn't know the real situation, so he hurried to the door of the Chinese army's big tent, when he saw the figure of Li Fu staring at the city, Qian Rong immediately guessed the severity of the situation in front of him, now there is no possibility of any war on their Xuanling Continent, and the war is all concentrated near the city. Therefore, the withdrawal of troops like this now must be because there is some predicament within the Qi State, it is very likely that the Feng State is attacking the Qi State, and the internal army of the Qi State is not enough to support the whole situation, so they are seeking reinforcements.

Qian Rong walked quickly behind Li Fu and asked in a low voice: "General, I see that the soldiers of each battalion are packing up and preparing to leave the camp, can it be that there is something inside the Qi State that is really unsupportable?"

Li Fu sighed leisurely, now that his expression and movements had become slightly numb, he waved the letter that he had rolled up in his hand and handed it to Qian Rong behind him. The moment Qian Rong took the letter, his expression also changed in an instant, and the red seal above the letter directly made his heart half cold. This red seal already shows that there must be a hundred thousand urgent things within the Qi State, and they urgently need to rush back to rescue.

Qian Rong opened this letter, and the content of it made his heart tighten, Wei Xu, the governor of Mengcheng, led 30,000 troops to attack Huicheng directly, Gongsun Yu, the governor of Lingcheng in the north, led 30,000 troops to attack Quecheng and the Xuanling River ferry, Gongsun Yu personally led 5,000 elite soldiers to cross the Xuanling River, occupied the ferry on the other side, and opened the passage The Holy Emperor's personal expedition This series of news is enough to make them give up everything that they are now working hard to manage here, Qian Rong, as a military advisor and mastermind, naturally fully understands which thing is more important now. Besides, now Qian Rong only saw a trace of helplessness and reluctance in Li Fu's eyes, and did not see confusion and confusion, which invisibly illustrates a crucial point, and now Li Fu must have made a decision or order for this matter, and he is just knocking on the side to make some suggestions.

So, Qian Rong immediately smiled, "The general is completely right, I fully support the general, since you want to withdraw the army, you must set off immediately without delay, and you can't be cut off by the royal Chen family or leaving the country." Wei Chen suggested that he immediately order the former army to feint and attack the city, and at the same time, the military flag of our Qi country was still erected in the camp tent to confuse them, and then, we immediately set off to return to the territory of Qi to reinforce it!"

Li Fu nodded, Qian Rong's strategy was exactly what he wanted, and there were two sentences that spoke to his heart. "Okay, according to the plan of the military division, we will immediately prepare to withdraw our troops!" Li Fu gave the order of the general.

The prepared Qi army immediately withdrew and left here within an hour, and the flag still fluttering on the Qi camp covered the retreat of this army. When Wang Yan, the general who left the country, received an exact scout report, and immediately led 5,000 cavalry to arrive here, he found that this place had become an empty camp
