After Shi Ziling disarmed all the defenders in Yanzhao Pass in batches, he immediately ordered Leng Long and Leng Hu to lead people to impose martial law on the whole city, and all the gates in and out of the city were immediately blocked, and even the flying pigeons used for communication and transmission were all killed, in order to prevent the news of Yanzhao Pass's change of ownership from leaking out.

Li Xiaoyao obeyed Shi Ziling's words, obeyed all the orders one by one, and completely informed Shi Ziling of all the defensive measures in the city and the details of Li Yuan's army.

By the time all the men and horses of the Songhu Legion led by Ma Yu and the Duanmu brothers entered the city, Yan Zhaoguan was already completely under the control of Shiziling.

Although Ma Yu knew that the Dao Shiziling had the unfathomable power of ghosts and gods, he did not expect that such an important Yan Zhaoguan would be taken down by Shiziling without a single soldier. After listening to the narration of Yu Wei Yinqi and others, he personally walked around Yanzhao Pass, and saw that all the original defenders had been disarmed and detained, and everything in the city was in order, and he couldn't help but admire the five-body surrender.

In order to discuss the next action plan, many generals of the Songhu Legion all gathered in Li Xiaoyao's temporary line, and Yu Wei said to Ma Yu with a smile:

"Ziling doesn't know what evil method Lu Dao has cast on that Li Xiaoyao, Li Xiaoyao is even more loyal than us, not only let all his subordinates disarm and obey orders, but also tell us all the details of Li Yuan's army. How evil do you say this is? Such an important Yan Zhaoguan is ours like this, Ha Lu Ha ......"

Not only Yu Wei, but all the soldiers, including Yin Qi, were incredulous that Shi Ziling could completely subdue Li Xiaoyao, and their eyes at Shi Ziling became more and more awe-inspiring.

Ma Yu sighed: "I thought that Yanzhao Pass had Li Xiaoyao in charge, even if we could successfully blend into the pass, we would have to pay some price to win this pass, but I didn't expect Ziling's magical powers to be above my expectations, so our next step will have a greater chance of success." I just don't know if Li Xiaoyao can still use it?"

Shi Ziling said: "Li Xiaoyao has hit my soul dementor**, as long as it is my order, he will obey it unconditionally." ”

When the generals heard this, they couldn't help but admire again and again.

Yu Wei smacked his tongue and said: "I finally know that you are powerful, it turns out that you still have such a terrifying evil method, if you don't like anyone in the future, as long as you use **, he can only be your slave forever like Li Xiaoyao." This is really evil! Whoever is your enemy is really unlucky!"

While admiring, everyone couldn't help but secretly rejoice that they were in the same camp as Shiziling, and if they unfortunately became Shiziling's opponent in this troubled world, the consequences would be very serious.

Shi Ziling said with a smile: "I also came up with this method in a hurry, but I didn't expect it to have miraculous results." However, this method is quite consuming of power, and it is somewhat yin and lacking in morality, and I rarely use it. ”

Yu Wei said disapprerovingly: "Of course, you have to do everything to deal with the enemy, what is there to be polite to a big enemy like Li Xiaoyao, if you are polite to him, our Songhu Legion doesn't know how many lives will be injured!"

Ma Yu said with a smile: "We did a very clean job of taking Yanzhao Pass this time, and now all the external exits have been tightly blocked by us, even if Li Yuan knows the news of the loss of Mijing City, he would never have imagined that we would have taken Yanzhao Pass so quickly." As long as we make good use of this, we may be able to deal a heavy blow to Li Yuan's army. ”

Yin Qi said: "According to Li Xiaoyao, Li Yuan's two major armies also suffered a lot of losses in the successive fierce battles with the Xiahou family, and after leaving 50,000 elite soldiers to stay in Yanzhao Pass, he currently only has 1230,000 people left in his hands. ”

"Although we only have more than 50,000 people, if the 50,000 military horses of Nangong Xia's Narcissus Legion arrive later, there will be a total of 100,000 military horses. In this way, it can almost fight head-on with Li Yuan's two major armies. ”

Ma Yu shook his head slightly and said, "Nangong Xia's Narcissus Legion can only be the icing on the cake, we can't expect them to fight directly with Li Yuan's Legion." Although the gap between the strength of the enemy and us is now narrowing, the strength of Li Yuan's army has always been superior. There are only some remnants of the Xiahou family left, and there is no danger to defend, so it is estimated that defeat is imminent. ”

Yu Wei was puzzled: "Didn't you say that the two of them are facing off in front of Black Dragon City, then the two legions of the Xiahou family should still be able to fight, how can they be defeated soon?"

Ma Yu said: "That's just that Li Yuan wants to consume the spirit of the Xiahou family's desperate decisive battle by delaying time, if Li Yuan's two major armies attack directly at the expense of casualties, they won't be able to support the Xiahou family for long." ”

Shi Ziling said: "My father-in-law, Bai Wuya, is still joining forces with Xiahou Yuan in Black Dragon City to fight against the enemy, and I'm worried that something will happen to him. ”

Ma Yu said: "Don't worry, I think Senior Bai just promised Xiahou Yuan to help, and he didn't want to work for the Xiahou family to the end, he would definitely evacuate by himself when he saw that the situation was wrong." With the strength of Bai's predecessors, although he is not Li Yuan's opponent, he should still be able to escape. Li Yuan's goal is to sweep away the territory of the Xiahou family, and it doesn't have to be the life of the senior Bai, you don't have to worry too much. ”

Shi Ziling said: "Now that we have taken the news of Yan Zhao Pass lightly, the outside world still doesn't know the truth, should we send troops to strike a heavy blow in the back of Li Yuan's army as soon as possible? Maybe we can still fight with the Xiahou family's army inside and outside, so that the chances of victory will be greater." ”

Ma Yu shook his head and said, "It will take at least ten days to travel from Yanzhao Pass to Black Dragon City, even if we rush there immediately, I think the Xiahou family will not be able to hold out for ten days." Li Yuan should have received the news of the loss of Mijing City in the past two days, and he should have thought that your next step will inevitably be to capture Yanzhao Pass, and it is estimated that he will speed up the fight against Xiahou Yuan. I thought it would be too late for us to send troops now. ”

Yu Wei shouted: "How can this be? Didn't you say early on that we would raid behind Li Yuan's army, and then cooperate with Xiahou Shi's family to attack from outside and inside and outside in order to achieve a certain victory? ”

Ma Yu said: "What do you know! The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and all sides will make timely adjustments according to the different situations of their opponents. Do you think Li Yuan is a fool? His adaptability may be even stronger than we think, and we have taken the initiative to have the current situation. If Li Yuan wants to eat Xiahou Yuan in advance, he will inevitably pay a heavy price, which is still very beneficial to us. ”

Shi Ziling said: "According to your inference, Li Yuan will definitely step up his efforts to deal with Xiahou Yuan in order to avoid being attacked on his back." Although this will greatly deplete his troops, it is too late for us to sneak up on the Xiahou family from behind?"

Ma Yu nodded and said, "That's true." Xiahou Yuan's defeat is only inevitable, and since Li Yuan has already hit this point, he is bound to uproot the Xiahou family in one fell swoop. With Li Yuan's ingenuity and strategy, if we want to use the sneak attack to win with one blow, it seems that sooner or later we will have to have a head-on decisive battle with his two major legions, I just hope that the Xiahou family can consume a little more of the strength of Li Yuan's legions. ”

Shi Ziling frowned and said: "We sent troops under the banner of rescuing Xiahou Yuan this time, if we watched the collapse of the Xiahou family and sit idly by, it is really unreasonable." I still want to rush to rescue them as soon as possible, and at least save a piece of the Xiahou family's inheritance, so that I can be regarded as having an explanation for this dispatch. ”

Ma Yu said with some disapproval: "Ziling, although we sent troops this time to rescue Xiahou Yuan in name, in fact, we are taking the opportunity to defeat Li Yuan and dominate the world. If you rush to attack early, not only will you not be able to save Xiahou Yuan, but I am afraid that you will also delay the great cause of dominating the world!"

Shi Ziling asked, "What should you do in your opinion?"

Ma Yu said: "I've thought about it, if we send troops immediately now, we can indeed make a surprise attack behind Li Yuan's back, but the victory should not be very big." Because if Li Yuan knew the news of the loss of Mijing City, he would be more or less prepared, and the troops we rushed to must be limited, and at most, we could only annihilate Li Yuan by 20,000 or 30,000 people, and it would be difficult to shake the foundation of his two major armies. ”

"The Xiahou family is at the end of their crossbow at this time, and it is impossible to expect them to join forces with us to defeat Li Yuan's army of more than 100,000. That's why I suggested simply letting Xiahou Yuan fend for himself and letting them consume the strength of Li Yuan's army as much as possible. ”

"After Li Yuan swept away the Xiahou family, he no longer had to worry about being attacked on his back, and he would inevitably rush back immediately to recover Mijing City. At this time, we will use Li Xiaoyao to lead a strange army into Li Yuan's army, and induce Li Yuan to lead the army to Yanzhao Pass to converge. ”

Yu Wei agreed: "Ziling, this time I think what Ma Yu said makes sense. Anyway, it's too late to rescue Xiahou Yuan, so let's just let them fight the results thoroughly, and then we will go over to pick up the cheap, and now let Li Yuan consume as many troops as possible. If you are in a hurry to lead the troops over, if Li Yuan has already swept away Xiahou Yuan in advance, wouldn't it be self-defeating? I think it would be more appropriate to wait for the two of them to spell out a clear result. ”

Ma Yu's analysis was agreed by most of the generals of the Songhu Army, and everyone thought that since it was too late to rescue Xiahou Yuan, it would only startle the snake by sending troops rashly, and it would be better to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. After the situation is clear, according to Ma Yu's strategy, use Li Xiaoyao to lure Li Yuan into the bait, and the chances of winning will be relatively large.

This time, everyone risked going to the northwest thousands of miles away to help Shiziling accomplish the great cause of hegemony, and now that they have the opportunity to reap the benefits of the fisherman, why not do it? For a while, all the generals agreed with Ma Yu's strategy.
