    "Hahaha" Zhang Hao looked at the letter in his hand, laughed three times, and then waved his hand: "Go back immediately and say that the general will be away, and you will not grant your orders. It is enough to have Nan Ba ??come back for help.  I'll keep going." "This" The messenger was surprised.  "No need to say more, just report my exact words when you go back, and Ye Sima will understand what I mean." Zhang Hao said again.  The envoy had to turn back, and Zhang Hao looked back at his subordinates. Thanks to the Khitan people, the Jili Prefecture Army had now exchanged shotguns for cannons, and the original infantry had now become cavalry.  Although his riding skills are not yet perfect, at least there is no problem in marching on horseback.  Therefore, when the envoy arrived, Zhang Hao's troops had already advanced nearly ten miles.  He traveled another twenty miles, and not long after, another envoy came to summon him. This time he hesitated a little, so he ordered to set up camp, wrote a letter in his own hand, and ordered the envoy to take it back.  The next day, after the army had marched for another half day, the messenger came again. This time Zhang Hao had to return to the army.  With this coming and going, the soldiers naturally complained, and the news reached Dashiqiao two hours later.  "Haha, Huaiyu, you were right. Although we took a piece of meat from Ye Chang, the piece of meat was too small. The real big piece of meat is still in Anshi City. The first thing he wants to protect is Anshi City." Listen  Hou Xiyi burst out laughing when news came from the scout.  "That's natural. Dong Qin wants to use us as bait to lure Ye Chang to abandon Anshi City. Naturally, I will also use him as bait to force Ye Chang to stick to Anshi City. We not only took away a batch of Ye Chang's property, but also  We have done enough to get Di Lie's daughter. We will send it to Dr. An. We don't have to worry about him not standing up for us." Li Huaiyu said proudly: "It would be weird to be too greedy and want to eat all of Ye Chang's loot in one go.  "It's an extremely stupid choice." "Although I am young, I am wise and thoughtful. Even my brother, I am a little afraid of you," Hou Xiyi said with a smile. Li Huaiyu raised his head and glanced at his cousin. From his expression, he could not tell what he said.  Is it true or false.  "Brother, that Fan Chongwu has both sides, and secretly colludes with Ye Chang. Should we deal with him?" He changed the topic and pointed the finger at Fan Chongwu.  "Let's keep him and leave some sympathy with Ye Chang. If there is anything we can bargain with him." Hou Xiyi said.  "This guy thought he did it well, haha" Li Huaiyu thought of Fan Chongwu's face and couldn't help laughing: "Ye Chang is used to using traitors. This was the case when he captured Bisha City, and it was the same when he defeated Di Lie.  Now you want to use it on us, do you think I'm one of those stupid people?" Hou Xiyi felt a little unhappy. When Fan Chongwu said he wanted to defect, he was a little skeptical at the time, but he still took him in.  Doesn't Li Huaiyu's words call him a fool?  He knew that his cousin had always been high-minded. Although he was young, he was arrogant, but speaking so openly was too much. "Huaiyu, you must be careful what you say in the future, in front of me."  It's okay to say this, but you have to be careful when you are in front of others. "For the sake of cousin friendship, he warned.  Li Huaiyu smiled and said, "Yes, little brother, I made a mistake." But in his heart, he disagreed. Although he looked up to his cousin, he still felt that he was not as good as himself.  After confirming that Zhang Hao and Nan Jiyun have returned to the army, they can set off.  They were only about four hundred horsemen, but it was not an easy task to drive the same number of captives back to Liucheng.  During the march, they were easily attacked, so they only dared to leave after confirming that Ye Chang had no time to take care of him.  When Fan Chongwu saw them leaving suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. The Xi people he invited to deliver the message had not returned yet. If he left at this time, could it be that the news was leaked?  While he was thinking about it, he saw two people coming over with smiles, and clamped him on the left and right: "Fan Chongwu, what a good thing you have done." "What's wrong?" Fan Chongwu said in shock.  "Don't you, General Dong and Mr. Li Xiaolang, know about He Jing? That guy has always been weird. It was Mr. Li Xiaolang's plan to send him to your side." One of the two people said, "Now the news has been spread.  , I can't tolerate you anymore." "Huh?" When Fan Chongwu heard this, he suddenly panicked and felt that his legs were weak. He had fought more than once, but none of them made him feel as desperate as now.  In the past, even if he risked his life, there were always comrades around him who could trust his life. But this time, he was alone.  "Spare my life, spare my life, I was wronged," Fan Chongwu shouted.  The two men didn't pay attention to his cry of injustice. They blocked his mouth, tied him up, and threw him directly into a big car.  At first, Fan Chongwu thought that he was destined to die, but gradually he realized something was wrong. He started to pack up his things in the camp, and all kinds of property and captives were thrown into carts or camels, as if he was about to break camp and leave.  Fan Chongwu stopped struggling. The other party really wanted to kill him, but the body was already cold at this time, which proved that the other party wanted to take him away.  Since you saw through his fake surrender, why not kill him?  Also, go to Anshi City by yourself.The previous news was leaked intentionally by the other party. Will it cause losses to the Jili Prefecture Army?  Of course, more importantly, the prospects for himself and Ayili don't look good.  While worrying about this matter, Fan Chongwu's eyes rolled around. It wasn't until he was slapped by a sergeant that Fan Chongwu calmed down.  They broke camp and left, but because they were carrying Khitan women, children and belongings, they could not move very fast. By evening, they had only traveled more than 20 miles and arrived at the bank of the Liao River. They set up camp again and prepared to cross the river the next day.  Hou Xiyi arranged the police sentry at night very carefully. Seeing him like this, Li Huaiyu laughed and said, "Brother, are you afraid of Ye Chang's night attack?"  , you can see clearly at night Some of the soldiers in our hands can't see anything at night." "It is said that this guy is a disciple of Zhenren Yaowang, and some methods should be used" Li Huaiyu said this.  Halfway through, a sharp whistle was heard in the distance.  That was the sound of a police whistle. Hou Xiyi and Li Huaiyu¡¯s expressions changed: Enemy attack?  We were still discussing just now. Ye Chang is best at night raids. Now he is being attacked by the enemy?  Hou Xiyi's caution allowed him to release his scouts five miles away. At this time, there was only one horse galloping towards him. Hou Xiyi clearly remembered that his scouts were all in groups of three.  There was only one horse, which proved that the other two horses must have been lost.  "The whole army is on alert," Hou Xiyi shouted immediately. He also ran to the side and whipped an unresponsive soldier with a riding crop: "The carts are all outside, forming a circle." Most of these soldiers are battle-hardened at the border.  Only a few people are panicking.  Seeing that the whole army followed the instructions and set up a vehicle formation with large vehicles, and then built a simple defense line based on the vehicle formation, Hou Xiyi felt relieved and looked up at the scout.  The scout was only a few dozen steps away. Behind him, more than ten cavalry appeared, and Li Huaiyu had already led more than twenty cavalry to meet him.  Seeing that there were few people on their side, the dozen or so horsemen stood on their horses to wait and see. When they saw that Li Huaiyu and others were still coming towards them after joining the scouts, they turned their horses and left.  Li Huaiyu shouted in a sharp voice: "If you have the seed, don't leave." "You're a little baby that doesn't even have hair. If I have the seed, go back and ask your mother," the people over there laughed.  Li Huaiyu suddenly became furious. He leaned on the horse's back and kicked the horse's belly hard. The horse charged forward with all its strength.  When Hou Xiyi saw the situation, he frowned and ordered: "Ming Jin, call back Huaiyu and others." The opponent can't be just these ten riders. The most important thing now is to stabilize your defense line and don't give the opponent anything to take advantage of.  opportunity.  Following Li Huaiyu were all brave men in the army, and Hou Xiyi also counted on them to play a role in the fierce battle that would follow.  Hearing the sound of the golden gong, Li Huaiyu glared at the enemy knights in front of him hatefully, cursed, but knew it was not advisable to pursue him any further.  He turned the horse's head and prepared to go back, but at this moment, the other party saw that they were no longer chasing, so they stopped running.  "That little kid, didn't you say you want to see if Aweng is good at it?" The mean-tongued man shouted: "Come on, Oweng has taken off his pants, you want me to see this?" His companion  They all laughed wildly. Li Huaiyu was so angry that he was about to turn his horse's head again. A sergeant beside him hurriedly pulled his reins: "Mr. Huaiyu, don't fall into the trap. Our swordsmen speak, and we don't want to be like a common man."  "I'm going to cut this guy into pieces, and I'm going to take out his tongue and chill him down," Li Huaiyu screamed.  Returning to his own formation, Hou Xiyi saw that Li Huaiyu was still very angry, so he laughed and said: "My dear brother, don't be upset. After I win, I will leave that mean-mouthed person to your disposal." Li Huaiyu clicked.  He nodded and saw Fan Chongwu looking at the thief, and whipped him: "I will use this guy to block the arrows of the profit-seeking thieves later - these thieves dare to attack our officers and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty." He remembered at this moment  His identity was that of an officer and soldier of the Tang Dynasty, but he had forgotten that when they attacked Fan Chongwu and others, Fan Chongwu also claimed to be an officer and soldier of the Tang Dynasty.  Hou Xiyi comforted Li Huaiyu, but he did not agree with Li Huaiyu's proposal. Ye Chang sent a total of two troops to attack him, one was Nan Jiyun, and the other was Zhang Hao.  But the scouts brought news that these two troops should be recalled by Ye Chang. Who will come this time?  Could it be that the recall was just a matter of Ye Chang spreading suspicion to deceive them so that they could be lured out from the defensive location of Dashiqiao?  When thinking of this, Hou Xiyi was very worried. Although he was very confident, his family knew about his family affairs, and there were only 400 cavalry with him. It was not difficult for these 400 cavalry to escape, but if they wanted to win,  Not easy anymore.  After a while, he saw about a thousand cavalry appearing in his field of vision. Looking at their flags, they could see the word "Zhang". He must have been Ye Chang's judge Zhang Hao.  Others may ignore Ye Chang, but Anlushan never relaxed his attention to Jili Prefecture, and the Pinglu Army sent manyWhen the spies went to Liaodong and passed the news to Anlushan, the Pinglu Army's own generals also knew Ye Chang better.  Hou Xiyi couldn't say that he was familiar with his acting style, tactical preferences, and the characters in his account, at least he was familiar with them.  "It's Zhang Hao who came." Li Huaiyu also said with a sullen face: "Ye Chang lied to us." Indeed, Ye Chang lied to them. The letter to recall Zhang Hao was fake, and Zhang Hao's various hesitations were also fake.  They were afraid that they would abandon their prisoners and baggage and escape with the help of horse power.  Ye Chang is by no means a believer. If he dares to stretch out his claws to him, he must be mentally prepared for the claws to be chopped off. "Isn't he afraid that Dong Xianfeng will take away his lair?" A person next to him asked in surprise.  "Since he can deceive us, he can also deceive Dong Xianfeng If I were him, I would ask the sergeants in the city to leave the city at night, then return to the city in the morning, and pretend to recall Zhang Hao and Nan Jiyun. Dong Qin  Frankly, the idea of ??using us as bait is all thanks to the Goguryeo man next to him. That Goguryeo man was discouraged by Ye Chang. When he saw Ye Chang transferred back to the army, his first thought was to prepare for Ye Chang's surprise attack.  Yangjiaoergou" At this point, Li Huaiyu already understood what Ye Chang did.  When mentioning the "Goguryeo" around Dong Qin, Hou Xiyi frowned. If it weren't for that Goguryeo, Li Huaiyu might not be able to convince Dong Qin, but if it wasn't that guy, they wouldn't be limited to dangerous places at this time.  "What should we do now?" Hou Xiyi asked in a low voice.  Since the other party started to kill the scouts, it was obvious that they were not ready to give up. Internal strife among the frontier troops was not uncommon. They would massacre them all, lie about the Khitans or Xi people, and then slap them in the face.  Lawsuit - Even if they were discovered, it was Hou Xiyi and the others who took action first. "Two strategies, one is to abandon everything and run away. The opponent is still far away. Although they are all cavalry, I think their riding skills are not superb and they cannot catch up with us.  The second is to use the Khitans as hostages to force them to agree to share part of the credit with us. This strategy is afraid that the other side will be cruel" Li Huaiyu's two strategies were not good news. Hou Xiyi hesitated for a while.  "Brother, you must make a decisive decision at this time. You must not hesitate any longer. The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. Moreover, Nan Jiyun's tribe has not yet appeared. Will they follow?" Li Huaiyu had calmed down by this time and was no longer in a hurry.  He was furious just now: "Brother, if we can escape and go back, we will return in vain at most." "I know." Hou Xiyi was horrified and shocked: "Don't say anything else, life is important leaving one behind, we will do it ourselves."  "Leave." "Which troops are left behind?" Hou Xiyi whispered in Li Huaiyu's ear: "Han people." Hou Xiyi and Li Huaiyu were both Goguryeo people. At this time, nearly half of the Fan Yang and Pinglu armies under An Lushan were Hu people.  , the number of Han people is smaller.  Hou Xiyi's close subordinates are also from Goguryeo, Xi, Shiwei and other barbarians. Although there are Han people, at this most critical moment, what he thinks of is to cut off his tail to survive.  "You should surrender." Li Huaiyu said softly.  Hou Xiyi nodded, that was a natural thing. It would be difficult for the latter to escape if they were left behind. Allowing them to surrender would prevent them from feeling resentful and would not ruin their escape plan.  "Only take away Di Lie's daughter." Li Huaiyu said again: "Don't let others know." "It's just like this, so that you won't go back empty-handed." Hou Xiyi's eyes lit up.  Although my cousin is young, he thinks about things more comprehensively than me.
