At the spring banquet, three wishes were presented in front of Liang.

In the small courtyard, a pot of diluted spiritual tea extended the life of the two old people. If there had been no war, they would be considered the longevity people in the Prince's Village if they could live another fifty to a hundred years.

In the residence of Young Master Su, Miss Xiangfu also tempered her body and gathered energy overnight as she wished.

Similarly, a pot of diluted spiritual tea allowed the two Meng generals, Prince Su and Miss Xiangfu, as well as Meng Jiang and others to completely change their physiques overnight.

He is not afraid that these guys will mess up Da Qin's way of heaven.

Because the two Mongolian generals did not dare to disobey the imperial edict, even if any imperial edict was modified by Zhao Gao in the future.

The same goes for Young Master Su, who thought his father had left a decree to behead him, so he would obediently wait for death.

Since he wanted to hide everything, Li Xiuyuan decided to start from now on.

He can hide some things that will happen in the future, but it does not prevent him from pointing out a clear path to these guys first.

Miss Xiangfu's meditation, qi movement, and sword practice were all handed over to Meng Jiang. In the following days, Li Xiuyuan planned to teach Meng Jiang well.

At least she could understand the method of cutting snow with a sword, and then break through to the realm of foundation building.

This is what Li Xiuyuan can do for her. What happens in the future depends on the fate of these guys.

At nightfall, Xiaohu and his mother had returned to the old man's yard to rest, and Li Xiuyuan left Meng Jiang in the living room of Miss Xiangfu's house.

Looking at the two Mongolian generals, Mr. Su and Miss Xiangfu, Li Xiuyuan had mixed feelings in his heart and was speechless for a long time.

I don't know how much time passed before Li Xiuyuan sighed softly.

He said quietly: "You also know that Xu Fu went to sea to find immortals on the king's order and to obtain the elixir of immortality for the king. Now he has already gone to sea once..."

General Meng Yi frowned slightly: "I didn't expect that Mr. Xu would accompany Xu Fu on a trip to the East China Sea."

Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "Even if he fails once, he will still continue to go to sea until he finds the legendary fairy island for the king and asks for the elixir..."

Instead of continuing to worry about whether Xu Fu could find the legendary fairy island, Li Xiuyuan changed his theory.

Looking at Young Master Su, he smiled and took out five brocade bags, one for each person. Even Meng Jiang gave one to him.

Young Master Su Zheng was about to reach out to open the brocade bag, but Li Xiuyuan reached out to stop him: "Don't worry, you won't be able to open it until this moment of life and death."

This time, even General Meng Tian frowned. It seemed to him that he was the general at the edge of the town. What kind of life and death crisis would he encounter?

"Is it possible that the Huns have become stronger?" the two Mongolian generals thought for a while and asked.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head: "There are ten gold coins in the brocade bag and some medicinal herbs... If that day comes, you only need to press the message in my brocade bag to avert the crisis of life and death."

Then he looked at Meng Jiang and smiled bitterly: "My sister is supposed to be your lifelong enemy..."

"But I thought that one day we would have sympathy for each other, so I let her practice in the Prince's Village for a few years so that she could stay with the lady of the prime minister's house."

When Meng Jiang saw Li Xiuyuan speaking so solemnly, he had to respond: "Brother, please don't worry, Meng Jiang will definitely be here waiting for his sister to leave together."

Reaching out to serve the five people with spiritual tea, Li Xiuyuan said in an inaudible voice: "This matter must be kept secret, even your parents cannot tell it."

Prince Su was stunned and blurted out, "Sir, can you explain the secret of heaven to us?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head: "No, the time has not come yet."

Only the smart Meng Jiang laughed and asked softly: "Is it possible that the island and the fairy mountain are also our destination?"

Hearing this, Li Xiuyuan spread his hands and laughed lightly: "This is your own guess and has nothing to do with me."

It is the only way Li Xiuyuan can think of to let these miserable guys stay away from the Qin Empire and go to the island to find Xu Fu.

With the friendship between Young Master Su and Xu Fu, they will naturally not refuse their former friends.

straight

At this moment, Young Master Su Cai looked at the two Mongolian generals and took a deep breath, thought for a while and said: "It seems that this matter has nothing to do with the Xiongnu, but with Xu Fu..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Xiuyuan interrupted: "Stop it. From now on, until the day when you receive the imperial edict, don't mention Xu Fu again."

There are many people talking about it, and if there is no guarantee, the news will be revealed one day.

If he hadn't been afraid that he would leave the Great Wall at any time, Li Xiuyuan would not have revealed this dangerous news to the four people in front of him in advance.

Before leaving, Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and told the lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion: "From now on, no matter what big things happen to the imperial city, you must not leave this place again."

"What if sir, you guessed wrong and there is no such day?" General Meng Yi thought for a while and asked unwillingly.

Li Xiuyuan chuckled and said quietly: "Unless the Xiongnu Chanyu comes to surrender tomorrow...sister, we should go home."

If he continued talking, Li Xiuyuan was afraid that he would not be able to help but reveal the secret, so he immediately stood up and walked out of the living room.

Meng Jiang glanced at Miss Xiangfu, shook his head gently, and left quickly with Li Xiuyuan.

In her opinion, how could the eldest brother, a god-like figure, possibly deceive her?

If he wanted to deceive, he would not have set up two large formations around the two courtyards to protect his Miss Xiangfu.

Looking at the two people leaving, Young Master Su looked at the three of them and said quietly: "We would rather believe that this is true than let the slightest bit of information get out."

General Meng Yi was thoughtful and nodded heavily.

Because the two of them coincidentally thought of that year when the King of Qin asked them to investigate the assassination of Xu Fu by the Forbidden Army.

The real murderer was clearly traced, but at the last moment the emperor raised the killing sword in his hand high and gently lowered it. :

General Meng couldn't help but take a long breath: "Your Highness, why do you think we are running around like this?"

Young Master Su smiled lightly and put away the brocade bag in his hand.

He said quietly: "For the emperor above, for the people below, and maybe one day for ourselves."

Miss Xiangfu looked at her husband and said solemnly: "I believe Mr. Li."

After Li Xiuyuan settled the four young masters Su, he spent the next few days in the yard watching Xiaohu and Meng Jiang practice their swords for an hour every day.

In his words, Xiaohu has grown a year older and can practice for half an hour more.

The two old men were also very happy. Every day, Yan's two maids would come over to help, so there was no need for them to do anything. Only after dinner in the evening, the man and the two maids went to Miss Xiangfu's house to rest.

During this period, Li Xiuyuan and the two Meng generals rode out several times on their war horses, without telling Meng Jiang of Xiaohu. Even Young Master Su didn't know where the three of them had gone.

At present, Young Master Su has to arrange for the continuation of the project after spring, and also needs to guard against sneak attacks by the Huns army, so he spends much less time in the yard every day.

It's just that Meng Jiang accompanied Miss Xiangfu during the day, and he casually took Xiaohu with him to practice swordplay.

When catkins began to flutter in the village, when Xiaohu thought that his husband was about to take him away to the imperial city, when Li Xiuyuan returned to the small courtyard and stopped going out.

Shan Yu led the army all the way to a place ten miles outside the Great Wall. Two hundred thousand troops set up camp, which made the soldiers of Great Qin feel a hint of danger.

Just when the young master Su was undecided, the Xiongnu army continued to gather food and fodder from the rear, with the intention of fighting the Qin army here for a long time.

Unexpectedly, three days later, a thunderbolt came, which shocked the young master Su. He became so furious that he vowed to rush out of the Great Wall and fight to the death with Shanyu.

The reason is that the Xiongnu army camped directly under the Great Wall and did not attack, but they disguised thousands of people as a food delivery team and attacked the beacon tower thirty miles away.

As a result, General Meng was caught off guard. When he rushed there with his army, the beacon tower was already a river of blood, and hundreds of generals stationed there died for their country.

A corner of the beacon tower was also destroyed by the Xiongnu army and needed to be repaired.

This is the time since Prince Su led the army to the border

Something that had never happened before, even the people under the Great Wall began to panic.

General Meng stopped the angry Young Master Su and instead invited Li Xiuyuan to the military camp to discuss countermeasures.

It turned out that in their opinion, the liquor storekeeper was not needed for marching and fighting. However, after Li Xiuyuan accompanied them for a walk outside the Great Wall, they changed their minds.

After Li Xiuyuan learned the specific situation, he sighed silently.

At present, the Xiongnu army is overwhelming and their morale is high. It is not the time to engage in battle. In addition, the terrain outside the Great Wall is not suitable for heavy cavalry charges, so it does not have much advantage over the Qin army.

The key is that Prince Su and the two generals seemed to have unparalleled momentum, but they had no awareness of guarding against a sneak attack by the Xiongnu army.

After some deliberations, the Qin army sent hundreds of hidden soldiers to lay out dozens or even hundreds of miles along the Great Wall.

After each spy discovered the enemy's situation, he sent fireworks to the beacon tower on the Great Wall, and then from the beacon tower to the army stationed in several different places.

As a result, unless the Xiongnu army launches a frontal attack, it will be difficult to carry out sneak attacks.

Young Master Su let out a long sigh, looked at the three of them and said, "We made a big mistake before. We thought that it was enough for the beacon tower to convey the message, but we failed to guard against their sneak attack."

General Meng Tian nodded: "In this way, we also have people in the dark. Once we find their large group, we can respond immediately."

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said seriously: "The spies sent out have to be replaced every five days, and the dry food they carry cannot last long."

Young Master Su frowned and looked at General Meng Yi and asked, "How to solve the problem of dry food?"

Meng Yi replied: "It's exactly five days. Any more will not be convenient for their movements. We have made arrangements to change them every five days."

Li Xiuyuan said coldly: "I shouldn't have gotten involved in this matter, but I am responsible for their pursuit. Then I will leave after you finish this battle."

Young Master Su asked cautiously: "The enemy has already reached us. What do you think, sir?"

Li Xiuyuan replied calmly: "Not only are the Xiongnu's cavalry numerous in number, but their morale is now high and their combat power is unparalleled in the world. They are invincible... If we give them a try, we won't be able to hold on."

General Meng Yi followed up and said: "Sir, what you said is absolutely correct. If they join forces now, it's really hard for us to open up and fight them."

Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but laugh when he thought about the art of war that his husband taught him that day: "In battle, we have to go all out in one go, then exhaust ourselves in three, and we will fight them slowly."

Young Master Su slapped the chair and shouted, "Just follow your advice, sir."

In the Xiongnu camp, Shanyu looked at the right general and Jin Buhuan who were following him, and could not see the expression on his face.

The right general thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, we can't be anxious this time. We have to play with them slowly. If we can't defeat them, we can still retreat to the desert, so they don't dare to pursue them."

Shan Yu nodded coldly and replied: "Very good! Let's defeat them one by one and see how many beacon towers they have and how many soldiers they have to block our attack."

The gloom in Shan Yu's eyes seemed to be like water. He was originally furious, but when he came to the foot of the Great Wall, he wanted to attack and fight decisively. However, he changed his mind temporarily because of the right general and persuasion.

Just as Jin Buhuan said, he was going to use the strategy of breaking up the whole into parts for a sneak attack to fight a protracted battle with the Qin army on the Great Wall.

It was spring now and he could afford it.
