Early the next morning, the group finished their meal and got ready to go.
"Little girl, come here." Yan Lie shouted.
Yan Shu walked over and took a look. Yan Lie had made a carriage out of nowhere. He thought he felt sorry for Yan Shu and let her ride in the carriage.
Yan Yan did not bring the maid out this time. She also considered that Qingqing and Xia Cao could not ride a horse, and riding a carriage would be slower. She could not let everyone wait for her alone, so she abandoned the carriage and rode a horse instead. Although Yan Yan really wanted to ride in the carriage, she didn't want to waste a moment when she thought about Li Xiao's whereabouts.
"No need, Brother Huang. I'd better ride a horse. I'll just stick with it for a few days and get used to it. Let's go quickly." After Yan Shu said this, he turned around and went to lead his horse.
"Who does this arrogant temperament look like? The mother-in-law is so gentle, does she look like the father?" Looking at Yan Shu's back, Yan Lie couldn't help but mutter to himself.
With Yan Shu here, he didn't have to travel at night, but he didn't get much rest during the day except eating. It took nearly ten days to reach Liguo.
"Uncle Qin, we have an army of two thousand men. With so many people passing by Li Guo, they may think that we are here to fight. If a war breaks out, what are our chances of winning?" While eating, Yan Shu humbly asked the old man King Qin asked for advice.
"Now Li Guo has suffered several defeats in succession, and its military strength is not as good as before. If there is a head-on conflict, with His Royal Highness the War King here, we don't have to be afraid." Yan Lie of the Old Qin Dynasty nodded, and then said: "The life of Li Guo people is He is warlike and vindictive, and he probably hates Yi and Yan to the core. If they meet, they will inevitably have a fight. Li Xiao must have fallen into their ambush." Old Qin King analyzed carefully.
When Li Xiao was mentioned, Yan Shu's heart suddenly tightened. Thinking that there was a high possibility that something happened to him in Li Country, she wanted to wipe out the entire Li Country immediately. "Uncle Qin, hypothetically, I mean hypothetically, if Yi State and Yan State join forces, can Li State be destroyed?" Yan Shu asked.
The old King of Qin did not expect Yan Yan to ask such a question. He thought for a while before answering her carefully: "It is not difficult for the two countries to join forces to destroy Li Guo. However, the people are innocent. Once a war breaks out, the people of Li will be the first to suffer. And the timeline will be very long. Therefore, no country will be willing to take the initiative to go to war unless it is absolutely necessary."
Yan Shu understood what the old King of Qin said was that she was being narrow-minded and only wanted to vent her anger for Li Xiao and didn't think too much about it, so she didn't mention it again.
The group's progress has slowed down since they entered the Liguo border. After all, the main task is to find Li Xiao, so they have to follow the road to Yiguo to observe carefully and look for clues.
After walking like this for three more days, there was still no clue. Instead, he was discovered by the Liguo soldiers patrolling the border, and they immediately went to report the news to the Liguo Emperor. The Emperor of Li Kingdom lost his son and daughter one after another, and he was in a panic. He happened to encounter the Yan Army passing by. How could he let them come and leave as they pleased?
Because the flag of Yan State was flying, the people of Li State did not know that the old King Qin of Yi State was also in the team. According to the number of people estimated by the patrol, the Liguo Emperor immediately summoned three thousand soldiers and horses, demanding that this Yan army must be annihilated.
According to common sense, when 3,000 people fight against 2,000 people, Yan Guo has only one coach. It is natural that Li Guo can win the battle. But he never expected that when the old King of Qin set out from the Yan Kingdom, he had already sent a message to the Qin Army Feige in the Yi Kingdom, asking them to bring two thousand people to meet him. Now that they have arrived in Liguo, they are only waiting for an order from the old King of Qin to come to help. There is no rendezvous yet, also because the old King Qin does not want to attract too much attention, so he let his Qin army lie in wait and act accordingly.
At this time, it just came in handy.
