Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

Han Meng suddenly cupped his fists, expressing his agreement with Yan Liang's opinion.

Yuan Tan nodded to Han Meng, and then looked at the others, but most of the others were still thinking, so Yuan Tan could only turn his gaze to Tian Feng and let Tian Feng make up his mind for him.

Tian Feng didn't answer right away, he was a little depressed. Originally, his plan was to unite with Tian Kai to contain Li Yi, and it was a perfect plan until Li Yi retreated. used.

Although Yan Liang's suggestion was good, in Tian Feng's view, it was only [-]% certainty. If it were a normal [-]% certainty strategy, Tian Feng would definitely not use it.

However, [-]% certainty seems to be the best situation now.

With a secret sigh, Tian Feng showed a smile on his face, and praised: "General Yan's clever plan, after this battle, Tian will meet the lord in person, and ask for merit for the general to become a marquis!"

Chapter 713 Invite the lord to fight in person

Just as Yuan Tanfang thought, although Li Yi yelled at Tian Kai to kill him, he had no intention of doing anything at all. He just stopped in place for three days and sent a group of about a thousand recruits to occupy Tugu County, continue to drive toward Dongping Mausoleum.

Naturally, Tian Kai was not willing to bear this scapegoat, at least he couldn't bear it alone, so Tian Kai resolutely exposed his plan with Yuan Tan, saying that he was bewitched by Yuan Tan, but in fact he was not. He planned to kill Li Yi.

After that, Tian Kai even indicated that he could unite with Li Yi, and teach Yuan Tan, that rebellious villain, a lesson together.

Naturally, Li Yi would not agree. In fact, Tian Kai was only talking about it. As soon as the assassination time was exposed, Tian Kai concentrated all the front-line soldiers and horses in Linzi. Linzi is a relatively safe place for Li Yi and Yuan Tan. This seems to indicate Tian Kai's true position, he is not willing to participate in the struggle between Li Yi and Yuan Tan.

After walking north for two days, Li Yi's army set up camp only [-] miles away from Dongping Mausoleum. Yuan Tan, it is wrong to attack Qingzhou, let him return to Hebei as soon as possible.

Early this morning, Li Yi felt someone pushing him, so he opened his eyes in a daze, and then saw Lai Yinger sitting by the bed. It's not about the figure, but after a few days of in-depth understanding, Li Yi knew how sweet it tasted, and immediately stretched out his hands to hug it, preparing to go back to sleep again.

Lai Yinger didn't hide when she saw Li Yi's big hand, because it was useless to hide, but she said stiffly: "There are already three at Maoshi. If Marquis Xiang is not afraid of being ridiculed, I don't mind .”

Li Yi arched over Yinger's body, took a deep breath, looked fascinated, looked up after a while, and laughed immediately, only to see that although Yinger's tone was tough, her face was full of pink, and the pair of eyes It's even more dewy, like shame or resentment, such a style, even Li Yi can't stand it.

Sensing Li Yi's undisguised gaze, Lai Ying'er had a low face and simply turned her head to the side. Li Yi smiled, pulled back the quilt and said, "My dear Ying'er, change my clothes and wash up for me."

Although Lai Yinger was a little reluctant, she obediently took the new clothes after hearing Li Yi's order, and began to help Li Yi tidy up.

Seeing Lai Yinger who was obviously dissatisfied in her heart, but barely obedient in her actions, Li Yi couldn't help but think of the things in the past few days.

At that time, Lai Yinger was really dying with him, even if it was all that, she was crying and scolding him, which made Li Yi very annoyed.

Therefore, Li Yi became a bit perverted, thinking that in the future, Yinger's family would be by his side, so that Yinger should be honest when she came.

Lai Yinger is not stupid, and she immediately understood Li Yi's sinister intentions, she didn't tell Li Yi where her family was, but Lai Yinger, an ordinary woman, was a little clever, but how could she know Li Yi's dark heart?

On the same day, Li Yi ordered people to let out rumors that it was Lai Yinger who abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, which made the assassination fail.

At first, Lai Yinger didn't understand why Li Yi said that, anyway, she didn't care much about her life and death, but after the evening, she was whispered by an old woman who took care of her, and then Lai Yinger immediately panicked, Regardless of her faltering steps, she took the initiative to approach Li Yi and begged Li Yi to save her family's lives.

Lai Yinger already understands that as long as the news about Li Yi gets out, her family is likely to be retaliated by the real envoy. She is not afraid of death, and even if she dies, she will be satisfied in her heart, but she is not crazy enough The point of disregarding the lives of family members.

Therefore, even though she hated Li Yi so much, she could only plead in a low voice. After making a series of unilateral promises, Li Yi finally sent someone to take her family away overnight to protect her. She also promised to let her family live in Yanzhou for the elderly after the location of the General's Mansion is determined.

After that, Lai Yinger's resistance mentality was obviously weaker, especially when she was teased by Li Yi one day, she was a little bit broken, and she was determined to kill the fish, but found that even her little tiger teeth couldn't hurt Li Yi, who was so big. After the villain, Lai Yinger was completely appointed, but the change was too great in a short period of time, and her attitude was still a little bit difficult to adjust for a while.

Under the service of Lai Yinger, Li Yi quickly packed things up. He changed from a villain full of unscrupulous thoughts to a wise and powerful Li Xianghou. After a simple breakfast, he came to the big tent for discussion. There, many military officials have been waiting for a long time.

It wasn't that Li Yi was late, but that the others would rather be one step earlier than let Li Yi wait for them instead.

Seeing the high spirits on Li Yi's face, Kuai Yue couldn't help but joked: "My lord's demeanor is getting more and more outstanding."

Li Yi laughed out loud, he knew Kuai Yue was talking about Lai Yinger, but Li Yi didn't feel any embarrassment at all, after all, being a man, it was inevitable that something would happen.

Moreover, although Li Yi made a gimmick that he can live for 500 years, no one under his staff dared to nag him about the issue of heirs, but everyone still hoped that Li Yi would have descendants, so it is best for Li Yi to bring a woman by his side They are very happy.

Li Yi himself is more happy. Now that his power has soared, there are few things that need to be taken into account. In the past, he still needed to lead by example, but now he is openly granting himself privileges. The other party had a heart-to-heart chat to see if that person still wanted to learn from him and become a general.

After exchanging a few words with everyone, Li Yi turned to the topic and asked, "My army has been stationed for a day, is there any change in Yuan Tan's direction?"

Pioneer Zhang Xiu got up, clasped his fists and said: "My lord, in the past two days, our army's scouts have clashed with Hebei soldiers and horses no less than ten times, causing casualties to each other, but Yuan Tan's army has not moved."

"Are you fighting? What is the strength of Hebei's soldiers and horses?" Li Yi asked again.

Zhang Xiu lowered his head and said in shame: "The opposite side lost three or four, our side lost five or six, and some soldiers and horses lost even more."

"There's such a disparity?"

Li Yi looked a little surprised, and the other people in the tent also showed disbelief. Obviously, they didn't expect that the loss ratio of their own scouts was so large.

At this time Xu Huang came out and said: "Master, at the end of yesterday evening, I will wait and see Yan Liang's side camp outside the city. I found that the camp is strong and well guarded. The soldiers in the camp shouted mightily. It seems that the momentum is not weaker than that of Cao Cao in Yanzhou. According to the scouts' investigation, most of the scouts on the opposite side who fought against our army came from the camp outside the city, so the general suspects that most of the elites under Yuan Tan's command are there."

Li Yi nodded slightly. Even if Xu Huang didn't say anything, he could think of this, because this kind of arrangement of setting up camps outside the city originally required elites, and it was a tough battle. vegetable.

It's just that according to the current situation, the soldiers and horses in the partial camp are probably more elite than he thought.

Suddenly, Zhang Liao went out to pay homage and said, "The scouts who suffered the most losses were mostly from the subordinates of the last general. Please punish me, my lord!"

Li Yi did not respond to Zhang Liao, but first looked at Chen Deng, Wei Yan, and Gan Ning who had been reorganized into his personal guard camp.

There are mainly two parts of soldiers and horses around Li Yi, one part is brought from Jingzhou, and Xu Huang is the main general. Although this soldiers and horses are not as dry as those who have fought hundreds of battles, they are very disciplined, and they have all been on the battlefield Those who have seen blood, their combat power is very impressive.

The other part is the soldiers that Li Yi asked Zhang Liao, Mi Zhu and others to train in their respective jurisdictions.

The soldiers in Yangzhou were good and bad. After all, they were trained by generals and they had many veterans. However, the quality of soldiers in Xuzhou was obviously inferior. Most of the soldiers had never been to the battlefield.

After these soldiers and horses converged in Xuzhou, Li Yi divided them into two divisions. The more elite ones were handed over to Zhang Liao to lead them northward with the army.

The Jizhou soldiers on the opposite side did not have Li Yi's problems. In recent years, Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses have been fighting non-stop. The military discipline may be a little worse, but the combat power is absolutely sturdy, which makes Zhang Liao's new army meet. It's normal to suffer from them.

"This matter is not far away."

After giving Zhang Liaoxu a hand, Li Yi said, "In terms of combat power alone, Hebei soldiers are indeed superior to our army, but in other aspects, our army is superior, so don't worry about some setbacks."

After a pause, when Zhang Liao wanted to thank him, Li Yi said again: "However, in the future, when the army crosses the Yellow River, it can no longer be inferior to the Hebei soldiers."

"The final general will live up to the lord's expectations!"

Zhang Liao clasped his fists heavily, but he was reflecting in his heart. He was too comfortable in Yangzhou before. Although he had been thinking about preparing for the war, the preparation for the war was not a real war. If he could be more serious, even if he was not as good as the Hebei elite, the difference would not be too great. big.

Regarding the issue of the combat power of the soldiers on both sides, Li Yi is actually quite helpless. He is more stingy with human life. This factor lowered his combat effectiveness in the eyes, so that when he faced Cao Cao last time, he completely crushed Cao Cao's soldiers and horses by relying on numbers.

However, what is lost is what is gained, and the problem of the combat power of soldiers and horses did not affect Li Yi's overall mentality. He glanced at everyone and asked, "Yuan Tan divided his troops and set up an elite outer camp. Does anyone have a plan to defeat the enemy? "

After Li Yi finished speaking, everyone's attention was focused on Kuai Yue, Xun You, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao and other high-ranking officials. Seeing that they didn't intend to express their opinions immediately, they prepared to answer.

Wei Yan was the first to stand up and said: "My lord, at the end of the day, please order three thousand soldiers to go around behind Dongling, attack Tai County by surprise, gather the ships on the south bank of Jishui River, and block Yuan Tan's way back. Yuan Tan will definitely send troops to fight for it. , My lord can choose a weaker force to attack between the Dongping Mausoleum and the division of troops. After succeeding, advance steadily, and the victory will be established!"

Li Yi showed approval. From a tactical point of view, Wei Yan's idea is very good. As long as the leader of the army does not mess up, he can basically win, but from a strategic point of view, it does not quite meet Li Yi's requirements.

"My lord, this subordinate also has a plan!"

Lu Su got up and said: "This time the lord is so powerful, Yuan Tan and others must be afraid and cautious, and it is difficult to make him fall for it with ordinary tricks. However, with the scouts fighting in front, Yuan Tan is likely to change his mentality and despise him." Our army's combat strength is like this, the lord can use a small force to test with Yan Liang, and then feign defeat. When the time is right, the lord can go to lure the enemy in person. If Yan Liang and even Yuan Tan can chase after him, then arrange a heavy siege in advance, If you eat it, you can also establish a victory.
