A night of silence.
At Mao hour the next day, the rain stopped completely.
The sky in the east is faintly white.
Smoke rose again from the slightly muddy Yanjun camp.
It's almost half time at Mao hour.
Just as the army was about to set off for another day of hard training.
Suddenly, several riders came rushing outside the closed Yanjun camp.
The leader has three flags on his back.
The unique symbol of Prince Yan's Mansion is clearly painted on one corner of the flag.
And its color is dazzling red.
"Emergency military situation! Open the camp gate quickly!"
"Emergency military situation! Open the camp gate quickly!"
"Emergency military situation! Open the camp gate quickly!"
Several riders roared loudly and charged forward.
The soldiers on duty at the camp gate did not dare to delay at all when they saw this.
He quickly opened the fence, moved the horse away and let it in.
Not long after.
Several cavalrymen ran all the way to the Chinese army's tent, two hundred paces away.
After a quick identity verification by the leader of Wenxin.
Under the leadership of leader Wen Xin, several riders quickly headed towards the Chinese army's tent.
"wait for a second."
In front of the Chinese army's big tent, leader Wen Xin whispered an order and then walked quickly towards the big tent.
"Yes, leader."
Asking the leader behind.
The first rider bowed respectfully towards his back.
The Yan army camped in the Chinese army's tent.
The leader of the Inquiry Heart is coming.
After hearing the news, Xu Yi and others quickly looked at the leader Wenxin.
"Owner."
"The person coming is the Wenxin Baiwei of Yunzhong County."
Without waiting for Xu Yi to ask questions, the leader of Wenxin marched to the big tent to report quickly.
"Yunzhong County asks the heart hundred guards?"
Hearing this, Xu Yi, who had a green face and covered with fangs, frowned instantly.
To ensure timely understanding of the situation in Mobei.
As early as when Li Guangli went to Mobei, Xu Yi had already tried every means to infiltrate some of the Wenxin Baiwei and some of the Red Blood Guards into Li Guangli's army.
Later, when General Li Ling went on an expedition to the north, Xu Yi once again used his old tricks to insert some spies into Mobei.
besides.
Some of the merchant teams who privately traveled between the Mobei Grassland and the Great Zhou Dynasty were also installed as some informants.
Yunzhong County served as the bridgehead in the war against Hungary.
Naturally, there are the Wenxin Baiwei and the Scarlet Blood Guard who are in contact with Mobei's eyes.
In order to avoid exposing their identity, these Wenxin Baiwei and Scarlet Blood Guards will never step into Yan Land easily unless there is something important.
But now, the Wenxin Hundred Guards of Yunzhong County have not only stepped into Yan Land.
They even arrived at the Mobei Grassland after going through many "processes".
This can only mean that the matter is so big that Xu Yi's Wenxin Baiwei left in Juyang City cannot handle it at all.
It's too late, it's fast.
Within two or three breaths, Xu Yi came back to his senses.
"pass."
Xu Yi calmed down for a moment, then ordered in a deep voice.
"yes."
Leader Wen Xin agreed, then quickly turned around and walked out of the Chinese army's tent.
Not long after.
The leader, Yun Zhong Wenxin, followed the leader Wenxin to the main tent of the Chinese army.
"Yunzhong Wenxin, meet the master!"
As soon as Yun Zhong Wenxin walked into the Chinese army's tent, he quickly saluted Xu Yi solemnly, wearing a black lacquered Shunshui mountain armor and sitting on the Supreme Master's chair.
"No gift."
"What's the matter?"
Xu Yi waved his hand slightly and then asked.
"Return to the master."
"Great changes in Minghu Mountain."
"This is written by Minghushan Wenxin and General Zhengbei."
Yun Zhongwenxin quickly took out several letters from his arms, and then raised his hands
Lift up.
Seeing this, the leader of Wenxin hurriedly stepped forward to take the letter, and then quickly handed it to Xu Yi with both hands.
Xu Yi took the letter from the leader Ziwenxin.
Then he quickly opened the letter written by Li Ling.
As the letter unfolds slowly.
In the past few months, everything that happened in Minghu Mountain in Mobei emerged before his eyes one by one.
After being besieged in Minghu Mountain for the second time by King Jordan of Zuoguli of the Xiongnu.
For several months, Li Guangli and Jordan almost did a small dozen every day, and a large dozen every ten days and a half.
Although the frequency of fighting is high.
But because Li Guangli occupies a geographical advantage.
Li Guangli never lost in every battle.
But the location is also favorable for success, and the location is also favorable for failure.
Although Minghu Mountain is easy to defend, it is difficult to attack.
But since spring.
From time to time, Jordan and others would set fire to the mountain.
This was because Li Guangli had already built walls and clearing fields within a few miles of the camp and built isolation zones.
Naturally, the fire attack would not cause substantial damage to Li Guangli's troops.
But the "aboriginals" on Minghu Mountain suffered as a result.
After several fire attacks.
The Zhou army on Minghu Mountain has been completely "strengthened and cleared."
The possibility of obtaining food and medicinal materials from the mountains is almost impossible.
When time quietly entered the spring of March.
The number of Zhou troops on Minghu Mountain has been reduced from nearly 20,000 to more than 13,000.
Along with the continuous sacrifices of Zhou soldiers and soldiers.
The food reserves on Minghu Mountain naturally became stronger.
According to Li Ling's estimate.
If this continues for a long time.
The food reserves on Minghu Mountain can last until at least early to mid-May.
It is even very likely that it will last until the end of May or early June.
However, food reserves are getting stronger.
But the corresponding herbal reserves are dwindling day by day.
When Li Ling wrote to me on March 11th.
On Minghu Mountain, there have already been cases of herbal medicine being stolen, and even seriously injured soldiers being secretly executed.
also.
According to Li Lingyan.
Since March.
He had already discovered several waves of soldiers and walked out of Minghu Mountain through the heavily guarded mountain passage.
And among the several waves of soldiers walking out of Minghu Mountain, there was a familiar figure.
According to Li Ling's guess.
These soldiers who secretly walked out of Minghu Mountain should be the soldiers Li Guangli sent to the capital to ask for help.
If nothing unexpected.
The imperial court should send reinforcements to Minghu Mountain soon.
And right at the end of Li Ling's letter.
Quite suddenly, several sentences appeared that did not match the preface and the follower.
Inside the Yanjun camp.
Xu Yi's eyelids were slightly closed, and he translated Li Ling's last words one by one against the secret words in his mind.
After dozens of breaths, the answer emerged in Xu Yi's mind.
The secret words written by Li Ling were to the general effect: If the imperial court orders Yan to send troops, they must try their best to fight for self-defense on the battlefield.
It can be seen from this.
In the past few months, Li Ling and others had suffered greatly under Li Guangli.
Xu Yi raised his eyelids slightly and put Li Ling's letter aside slowly.
Then he quickly opened several letters written by Wenxin Baiwei, Chixuewei and other informants.
It is different from what Li Ling wrote.
Eyeliners such as the Wenxin Baiwei and the Scarlet Blood Guards focused more on the middle- and lower-class soldiers.
According to the informants such as Wenxin Baiwei and Chixuewei.
In the past month or two.
Although the middle and lower-level soldiers in Minghu Mountain appeared to be cowardly and dare not speak out because of the presence of the Military Law Corps.
But behind the scenes, the dissatisfaction with Li Guangli and other generals and the fear of the Huns were growing day by day.
Since March.
The dissatisfaction among the middle and lower class soldiers became increasingly strong.
A large part of this is caused by the shortage of herbs.
If things continue like this.
I am afraid that Minghu Mountain will eventually usher in an unprecedented mutiny.
After a while.
Xu Yi put down the last secret letter in his hand and looked up at Yunzhong Wenxin.
"Has there been anything unusual in Yunzhong County in the past month or two?"
Xu Yi calmed down and asked.
"Return to the master."
"There has been nothing abnormal in Yunzhong County in the past month or two."
Yun Zhongwenxin pondered for a few breaths, and then quickly answered.
"good."
"I already know what happened in Mobei."
"After returning to Yunzhong, please pay attention to the movements of Yunzhong County."
Xu Yi nodded slightly and then gave instructions.
"yes."
Yun Zhong Wenxin once again solemnly bowed his hands and then left.
When Yunzhong Wenxin's figure completely disappeared behind the Chinese army's tent.
Xu Yi closed his eyelids slightly and thought quietly for a moment.
"Time waits for us."
After a moment, Xu Yi raised his eyelids, stood up and grabbed the Qingyang tree next to him.
Then he wanted to walk out of the Chinese army's tent with Xin Sixuan and others.
Another day of hard training begins.
However, just when he was about to reach the tent.
The leader of Wenxin who saw off Yunzhong Wenxin hurriedly opened the curtain and stepped in.
"Owner."
"Prince's Palace Document."
The leader of Wenxin walked up to Xu Yi, quickly bent down and raised the document in his hands.
Hear this.
Xu Yi's brows could not help but frown again under his fang-faced mask.
The news of his departure from Prince Yan's Mansion was known to no one in the entire front court except Yang Xian'an and Lu Wensu.
And when he left Prince Yan's Mansion, he had already arranged everything.
If there are any major issues that cannot be handled, Yang Xian'an and Lu Wensu will never disturb them.
Therefore, what these documents say is definitely not a good thing.
It's too late, it's fast.
Xu Yi frowned for a moment, and then quickly took the letter from the leader Ziwenxin.
And with the letter unfolding flatly from his hand.
Xu Yifang's smooth brows instantly knitted together again.
Letters and words.
The imperial envoy investigating the rebellion of the Yuyang Qu and Xie families has arrived in Yan.
Accompanying him were the eunuchs from the palace who were delivering orders.
After entering Yandi.
The imperial envoy went straight to Yuyang County.
The eunuch who conveyed the order in the palace came straight to Prince Yan's Mansion.
Yang Xian'an and Lu Wensu used the excuse that Xu Yi occasionally caught wind and cold and became unconscious and had difficulty getting out of bed.
For the time being, the eunuchs in the palace who conveyed the decree were arranged into the rest room of the envoys.
afterwards.
Yang Xian'an and Lu Wensu secretly inquired about the content of the imperial edict.
It's a pity that the group of eunuchs who passed the order wanted to eat and drink the same amount, but they remained tight-lipped and never disclosed any information.
The Yan army camped in the Chinese army's tent.
Xu Yi closed the letter and shook his head helplessly.
Now the imperial edict has arrived in Yan.
No matter what the content of that decree is.
They must all show up to receive orders in person.
To do otherwise is to ask for trouble.
"Captain Xin."
Xu Yi calmed down for a moment, then called his name.
"The end will be here."
Upon hearing this, Xin Sixuan quickly clasped his fists and saluted.
"There are some trivial matters in Juyang City."
"You need to go back alone."
"In these days of being alone."
"Except for actual combat training."
"For the rest, the training can be doubled as appropriate."
Xu Yi ordered in a deep voice.
Although he could not get a glimpse of the content of the imperial edict.
But based on what Li Ling wrote, we can basically make a guess.
If nothing goes as expected, it must be related to the incident in Mobei.
As for why, that is unknown.
The words are over.
Xin Sixuan once again solemnly clasped his fists and said: "The last general takes orders!"
A quarter of an hour later.
More than five thousand soldiers of the Yan army camp slowly left the camp.
Another day of hard training began.
at the same time.
Xu Yi led a personal army composed of hundreds of Wenxin Baiwei and Red Blood Guards to rush out from the Yan Army camp.
Head straight to Juyang City.
...
...
About chen hour.
As the sun rises.
After marching more than eighty miles in a hurry.
Xu Yi and others walked to a high slope outside the former site of Nuqicheng.
Take a break for the time being.
After Xu Yi turned over and dismounted, he held a water bag and walked dozens of steps toward higher ground slowly and quickly.
Finally, we stopped at a place with a good view.
While taking a sip of water, he silently looked at the former site of Nuqicheng below.
Since he left Juyang City.
He almost never asked about the reconstruction of Nuqicheng.
Although Wang Wenlian and Bai Qidong wrote letters every now and then to inform their daughter about the progress of Qicheng's reconstruction and other matters.
But without exception.
Xu Yi would put it aside after reading it.
And the reason why it is like this.
In addition to the so-called factors such as employing people without suspicion and doubting people without suspicion.
It's more of a tentative decentralization.
The rebuilding of Nvqicheng was delegated to Wang Wenlian and Bai Qidong.
The natural disaster in Yandi and the game with the aristocratic family.
He delegated power to Sun Daohua, Pang Wenze, Yang Xianan, and Lu Wensu.
As for the new official road and Yan Shang affairs that were completely postponed due to natural disasters.
He delegated power to Zhu Zongting, Wang Wenqing and other "net holders".
In his opinion.
After all, manpower is limited.
If you do everything yourself, you will most likely not get anything done.
And if one force wants to become bigger and stronger.
This is also true.
That is: Those in power must appropriately delegate power to those under their command.
As a person in power, you must firmly control the direction of events.
in short.
I can give you the right.
But you must follow my goals.
Once you go in the wrong direction, or go astray.
I can take back the power given to you at any time and set things right.
...
...
It is located on a high slope outside the old site of Nvqicheng.
Xu Yi calmly looked at the old site of Nuqicheng below.
As far as the eye can see.
At this time, nearly half of the ruins at the old site of Nvqicheng City have disappeared.
in the sun.
Countless civilians were sweating profusely.
First look.
The entire site of Nvqicheng was in chaos.
But if you look closely.
It can be seen that underneath the appearance of chaos, there is an extraordinarily orderly atmosphere.
See this.
Xu Yi couldn't help but nodded.
While Xu Yi was silently looking at the old site of Nuqicheng.
In the distance, dozens of horses were escorting a covered carriage.
Walk straight towards the high slope where Xu Yi and others are.
After a while.
Dozens of riders and covered carriages gradually stopped at the foot of the high slope.
Wang Wenlian, whose face was sickly red, was swaying on his bicycle.
Walk out of the car.
As soon as Fang stepped out of the carriage, he turned around at lightning speed.
"Ugh~!"
Tens of breaths later.
Wang Wenlian's complexion improved slightly.
Then he walked quickly towards the high slope.
After several rounds of questioning and Xu Yi’s consent.
Wang Wenlian finally walked two steps behind Xu Yi.
"My lord, please pay homage to the prince."
Wang Wenlian faced Xu Yi's back and solemnly bowed his hands and saluted.
"No need to be polite."
Xu Yi turned around slowly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, Wang Wenlian once again raised his hands and thanked him. After thanking him, he straightened up.
"Have you been causing trouble lately?"
Xu Yi asked unhurriedly.
Since the reconstruction of Nuqicheng, it has gradually moved on the right track.
From time to time, Xiao Xiao will show up to cause trouble.
Most of them are officials from the seventeen cities in the two counties of Yan.
Maybe it's due to fearlessness, ignorance, etc.
Maybe it's because it's become a habit to act arrogantly.
The more senior the official position is, the more senior the official will be.
The more he likes to show up and cause trouble.
