There are not many more than 20,000 troops, and there are still some Jingguo war horses, and these troops have learned the art of horse control, so more than 20,000 soldiers set off on war horses. The speed is not fast, followed by the convoy of troops pulling grain and grass, and it can't be fast if you want to.

Fortunately, Li Yunyi only brought the army of grain and grass for two months, and he didn't let Jingguo transport grain and grass in the follow-up, so he naturally had to eat Nanchu to help Nanchu fight, Nanchu supplied two million army logistics, and there was no shortage of grain and grass for his 20,000 people.

Jingguo was very close to Southern Chu, and it only took a few days to arrive at the boundary of Southern Chu, and Li Yunyi took Ye Xiangfo's military order and went all the way unimpeded. Moreover, there was grain and grass to be delivered when passing through the city, and there were no enemy troops here, so the march was very comfortable.

Li Yunyi prepared a luxurious carriage for Ye Qingyu, asked Jiang Xiaocian to accompany her, opened a small stove for her, and let her go in to find a good inn to live in when passing by the city. Where there was a river on the road, they had people camp by the water to bathe them. Even if he cares about it, Ye Xiangfo's baby granddaughter, and possibly the daughter of Mi Xiong, Li Yunyi dare not slack off.

Ye Qingyu basically didn't leave the carriage, but just accidentally opened the curtain and looked out curiously. She has been blind for more than ten years, and it has not been long since her eyesight has recovered, and she is naturally excited to have the rare opportunity to see the scenery. After camping, she often took Jiang Xiaocian and that grandmother around, and she felt that this was not a marching battle, but more like the Huya Army escorting her around.

Li Yunyi basically didn't show up, and rarely met Ye Qingyu, so he asked Xiong Jun to deal with it. Xiong Jun would be amazed every time he saw Ye Qingyu, but he didn't dare to have evil thoughts, Ye Qingyu gave him the feeling of being like a fairy in the sky, and he was a reptile on the ground, he didn't dare to think about it.

After marching for half a month, Li Yunyi and the others arrived at the city in the middle of Southern Chu. There was no war on the eastern side, Ye Xiangfo did not take the initiative to provoke, and the Eastern Qi side did not attack, and the situation became extremely strange.

Something happened on Chu Jing's side, the cold-faced killing god Zou Hui made a move, bloodied half of the upper echelons of Chu Yu Pavilion, and also found dozens of lurking spies in Chu Jing, and some spies also mixed into the middle level of the court's military department.

Of course, whether these are the enemy's spies, or whether Zou Hui is eliminating dissidents according to Ye Xiangfo's instructions, no one can say.

Zou Hui washed some people in blood, and the effect was still very significant, at least the people of Chu Yuge did not dare to disobey Zou Hui's orders now. Mi Xiong also absolutely supported Zou Hui, which was an agreement with Ye Xiangfo at that time.

There is no way to gamble, the situation in Chu is too dangerous, without Ye Xiangfo, the army will definitely be defeated, and no one can stop the troops of Eastern Qi.

Li Yunyi walked calmly for half a month again, and the war in the east finally began.

The Eastern Qi side began to attack fiercely, and attacked two ways at the same time, they did not attack Sima Yue in the north but concentrated superior forces to attack Ye Xiangfo's side, and mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Ram Qiu's side, but Sima Yue's side did not have any army to attack, and there was no army to defend that side.

After Ye Xiangfo got the enemy's dynamics, he asked Sima Yue to stand still and wait for his military order. The battlefields in the central and southern parts of the country began to fight, and the intrigues of such a large army to start a war were meaningless, and they were all hard-fought battles.

The Eastern Qi attacked fiercely, defended here, and the two major battlefields became Shura fields, and tens of thousands of soldiers were killed and wounded every day, and the battle situation was very tragic.

After three days of fighting, the number of sergeants killed on both sides reached more than 60,000, and Ye Xiangfo took the initiative to retreat. However, he retreated, not defeated, and the army retreated in turns, and the Eastern Qi army pressed forward step by step, attacking non-stop, but he did not bargain for anything.

In the same way, the ram Qiu also began to fight and retreat. There was no war on Sima Yue's side, and Ye Xiangfo sent an order for him to follow and retreat to the west. The Eastern Qi army pressed up directly, and the two sides retreated and advanced at the same time, which was very rhythmic, and fought a few battles from time to time.

After another three days, Li Yunyi's army arrived at Tianlong City in the east, while Ye Xiangfo's army was only a hundred miles away. Li Yunyi asked the army to be stationed outside the city, and waited for the arrival of Ye Xiangfo's army here.

Two days later, Ye Xiangfo's army retreated to Tianlong City, the army was stationed outside the city, Ye Xiangfo entered the city with a group of generals, and Ye Qingyu entered the city as soon as possible.

At nightfall, Ye Qingyu came back, found Li Yunyi, and said, "King Yi, follow me into the city, grandpa wants to see you." ”

"Good!"

Li Yunyi explained a few words to Xiong Jun, and then took Jiang Xiaocian into the city, and Gonggong Fu stayed behind to suppress the formation. Li Yunyi still changed his appearance and took Ye Qingyu's carriage.

Ye Qingyu's carriage was very large, but Li Yunyi sat in it, Ye Qingyu was still slightly shy, lowered his head and didn't speak, his pretty face was white and red, and he was cute.

Li Yunyi didn't see it, lowered his head and pondered, he didn't even look at Ye Qingyu, only Jiang Xiaocian looked at Ye Qingyu stupidly, and asked, "Qingyu, your face is a little red, are you very hot?"

Ye Qingyu's face turned even redder, he lowered his head and pulled Jiang Xiaocian to speak in a low voice, Li Yunyi sat down for a while and simply sat up to cultivate, it would take more than half an hour to enter the city.

After Li Yunyi meditated, Ye Qingyu didn't seem so embarrassed, and continued to gossip with Jiang Xiaociao, occasionally sweeping his gaze to Li Yunyi, with a faint loss in his eyes.

The carriage directly entered the city lord's mansion, as Ye Xiangfo's favorite granddaughter, Ye Qingyu was no different from the little princess, and the sergeant naturally did not dare to stop it. The carriage was parked in a courtyard, where there were obviously secret sentry posts everywhere, and the whole courtyard was surrounded by troops, and the guards were very strong.

Ye Qingyu got out of the carriage and walked in front with Jiang Xiaocian and the old lady, and Li Yunyi followed behind in a low-key manner. Ye Qingyu asked the old lady and Jiang Xiaocian to wait outside, and took Li Yunyi directly into the study, where an old man in a robe was looking at the map hanging in the study with his hands behind his back.

"Grandpa!"

Ye Qingyu smiled sweetly after entering, took Ye Xiangfo's hand and said, "King Yi is here!"

Li Yunyi saluted and said, "Li Yunyi has seen the generalissimo. ”

Ye Xiangfo turned his head, first touched Ye Qingyu's head lovingly, and then looked at Li Yunyi and said, "It's been hard all the way, sit down." Little herring, let people bring two cups of tea. ”

"Yes!"

Ye Qingyu went out, Ye Xiangfo sat down, and Li Yunyi sat down. Ye Xiangfo looked at Li Yunyi with a smile, and said: "Qingyu thanks to you for seeing the light again, the old man owes you a big favor, let's say, if you need the old man, just ask." ”

Li Yunyi got up and said respectfully: "The generalissimo is polite, I just did a little thing, the generalissimo's life-saving grace, I don't know how to repay it, how dare I ask the generalissimo?"

"You kid is too slippery, do you want the old man to owe you all the time?"

Ye Xiangfo's eyes flashed, as if he could penetrate everything, he waved his hand and said, "That's it, let's not talk about this matter, let's talk about state affairs." ”

Li Yunyi arched his hand and said, "Generalissimo, please give instructions." ”

Outside, Ye Qingyu came in, and actually brought in two cups of tea in person, one for Ye Xiangfo, and the other for Li Yunyi, and said, "King Yi, please drink tea." ”

"Haha!"

Ye Xiangfo smiled and said, "Li Yunyi, you are so blessed, this is the first time that Xiao Qingyu has taken the initiative to serve tea to outsiders." ”

"Grandpa~"

Ye Qingyu glared at Ye Xiangfo angrily, and ran out directly, her pretty face turned red again, and she was easily shy. Li Yunyi didn't answer, and the expression on his face didn't fluctuate, waiting for Ye Xiangfo to speak.

Ye Xiangfo glanced at Li Yunyi, and did not continue the topic, he took a sip of tea and asked, "Little Lizi, the old man is very interested in one thing, I hope you can tell me truthfully." ”

"Little Plum ......"

Li Yunyi was a little speechless, why did Ye Xiangfo suddenly change his name? This "little Li Zi" heard the same as a eunuch, and he said directly: "Generalissimo, you still call me Li Yunyi, please tell me if you have something, I know everything and I have nothing to say." ”

"Good!"

Ye Xiangfo nodded, and asked directly: "The old man is very curious, back then, when you led the blood wolf cavalry into Cai Guo, how did you avoid the tracking of Cai Guo's eagle eye, and if you escaped the encirclement and suppression of several large armies." Don't use Black Dragon Terrace as an excuse, don't say that there is an internal response at the top of Hawkeye, the old man has fought a lifetime of war, and some things are still clear. ”

Li Yunyi hesitated, he pretended to drink tea, avoided Ye Xiangfo's knife-like eyes, paused, and said: "Don't dare to hide it from the generalissimo, I have raised a very special bird under it, which is very fast and very small, and can monitor the military situation within a radius of hundreds of miles." ”

"Oh?"

Ye Xiangfo was slightly moved, and then his face was full of excitement, he stood up and paced back and forth, looked at the map a few times from time to time, and muttered for a long time, he turned his head to stare at Li Yunyi and asked: "Little Lizi, if Marshal Ben gives you 300,000 cavalry, do you dare to command?"

"300,000 ......"

Li Yunyi rolled his eyes, Ye Xiangfo is this crazy? As soon as he makes a move, he will have an army of 300,000? If he wants to lead an army of 300,000 in Southern Chu, he is at least at the level of a first-rank military marquis general.

Ye Xiangfo trusted him so much? He is only eighteen years old now, and he is not the son of a wealthy family in Southern Chu, but the regent of a vassal state, in case he has a problem with his command, these 300,000 cavalry will be buried in vain.

And one more problem!

His identity can't be exposed now, so the 300,000 army can only be taken over by Xiong Jun. Xiong Jun seems to have only seven or eight grades of combat power on the surface, and he is still a general of a vassal state, let him command an army of 300,000, and the generals below will obey the dispatch? Not to mention Xiong Jun, even if he comes forward to suppress it, it is very likely that he will not be able to suppress it.

It is true that Ye Xiangfo is the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, but how long has he been in office?

He has not established absolute authority, and the generals below may disobey his orders, let alone make them obey Xiong Jun's dispatch!

Li Yunyi smiled bitterly and said: "Thank you Generalissimo for your kindness, I don't think this matter is necessary, first, I am shallow in my studies and I am not competent, and the generals will definitely not obey ......."

"Don't worry so much!"

Ye Xiangfo waved his hand domineeringly and said: "Marshal Ben will ask you if you dare, you want you to say dare, and the rest of the questions are not a problem!"
