Take the system to become Uncle Liu

Chapter 304 Escape from birth?

Changli County has been besieged for 10 days, but to Li Xiaogong's surprise, Liu Bei did not follow the trend to launch an attack, but surrounded Changli County tightly and did not release anyone.

Looking at the densely covered enemy troops outside the city, Li Xiaogong didn't know why Goguryeo hadn't received any reinforcements so far. With 3 people in the city, it was impossible to stop Liu Bei's attack.

In this short 10 days, Li Xiaogong seemed to be 10 years old, not only because of the current enemy, but also because Li Shimin has not improved so far, and is still in a state of confusion.

Not to mention Li Xiaogong, even Li Mi didn't know how to persuade Li Shimin. After all, everyone knew the importance of Li Yuanba to Li Shimin. Li Yuanba's death in battle was like breaking Li Shimin's arm.

Li Xiaogong stood at the top of the city with a frown, watching Liu Bei's army lost in thought, and just by looking at the formation of the opponent, he knew that Wei Qing was a handsome talent not weaker than himself, and he had no flaws at all.

"Xiao Gong, how is the situation now?"

"Your Majesty, the situation cannot be tolerated."

Li Xiaogong subconsciously wanted to say that it was not optimistic, but he suddenly realized that it was Li Shimin's voice.

Turning around hastily, he saw Li Shimin standing behind him with a weak face. The wind from the top of the city blew towards Li Shimin recklessly, revealing Li Shimin's frail body.

"thump."

Li Xiaogong looked at Li Shimin's appearance and knelt down directly. It was the first time he realized how weak his king was now, and the former high-spirited Li Shimin was no longer.

People don't grow old slowly, they grow old all at once, Li Shimin at this moment is the best embodiment.

"Xiaogong, you have suffered a lot these days."

"Your Majesty, as long as you are safe, the last general will go through fire and water, and he will not hesitate."

The relationship between the monarch and his ministers can be stronger than this. Throughout history, it can only be seen in Li Shimin.

"Xiao Gong, we have been trapped here for more than 10 days. No reinforcements have come from the rear, and the enemy has not attacked. Do you know why?"

"Forgive me for being stupid, I haven't come up with a reason after thinking about it for a long time."

"This shows that Liu Bei is confident in defeating us, and if my prediction is correct, I'm afraid something happened to our rear. I just hope it's not what I thought."

Li Xiaogong was about to say something, but Li Shimin stopped the other party's words, and the two stood at the top of the city and watched Liu Bei's army quietly.

The news of Li Shimin's awakening quickly spread throughout the city, and the soldiers in the city reappeared with hope, and they were no longer as worried as before.

On the second day after Li Shimin woke up, the guards at the top of the city shouted towards the city as if they had discovered something strange.

"What? Liu Bei's army has retreated, is what you said true?"

Li Xiaogong didn't dare to delay after hearing the report from his servants, so he hurried up to the top of the city to see for himself.

Standing behind the top of the city, Li Xiaogong found that Liu Bei's army really retreated, and the whole camp disappeared overnight, and there was no one to be found.

Before he had time to think about why Liu Bei withdrew his army, Li Xiaogong ordered people to go out of the city and head towards Youbeiping to find out the news, to see what the hell this Liu Bei was doing. Li Xiaogong was sure that Liu Bei would never retreat so easily.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Li Xiaogong was reporting the matter to Li Shimin. When the two were wondering what kind of medicine was sold in Liu Bei's gourd, the scout who had gone to inquire about the news came back.

"My Majesty and General, I found Liu Bei's army 20 miles south of the city at the end of the day. Instead of retreating, they stationed here."

Afterwards, Li Shimin and Li Xiaogong looked at the map together. They were already surprised by the retreat of Liu Bei's army. Now they were even more surprised to hear that Liu Bei's army had not retreated. What kind of medicine was sold in Liu Bei's gourd.

Li Shimin looked at Liu Bei's current position in a daze, showing a thoughtful look.

"Effect, what does the distance of 20 miles represent?"

Li Xiaogong scratched his head and thought for a while, then said half-believingly: "My lord, the distance of 20 miles is enough to get rid of the pursuers, and it is a relatively safe distance."

After finishing speaking, Li Xiaogong himself didn't believe what he said, and asked Li Shimin suspiciously: "Your Majesty, you mean that Liu Bei took the initiative to ask us to retreat?"

Although Li Shimin was unwilling to accept this statement, he still nodded slightly in agreement.

"But my lord, why is this Liu Bei? He surrounded us for 10 days, and then let us go?"

"This shows that Liu Bei's strategy has succeeded, and now let us go only for his next step."

"My lord, in this case, why don't we retreat? Continue to stick to Changli County, so Liu Bei's plan will come to nothing!"

Li Shimin looked at Li Xiaogong and shook his head slightly, he also had this idea, but since Liu Bei dared to do this, it proved that he would definitely evacuate Changli County.

Besides, look at the army in the city, there are only 3 people, and the food and grass will be exhausted sooner or later. The most important thing is why no reinforcements have arrived so far.

Li Shimin didn't give too much explanation, but ordered Li Xiaogong to gather the army as soon as possible, and began to retreat in the afternoon. The army should go into battle lightly, except for 3 days of rations.

Although I don't know why Li Shimin knew it was Liu Bei's scheme and continued to be fooled, Li Xiaogong still followed Li Shimin's order.

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Shimin rushed out of the city gate, followed by an army of 3 cavalry. The army did not hesitate too much after leaving the city, and retreated directly to Xuantu County. In Li Shimin's heart, he had a vague feeling for Goguryeo. Foreboding.

Less than a hundred miles out of the city, several Goguryeo soldiers appeared in front of Li Shimin, and they seemed extremely anxious.

"Whose subordinates are you? Why are you here?"

Li Shimin ordered the army to stop advancing, and shouted at these scouts.

"Your Majesty, we have finally found you. We are the descendants of Lord Changsun. Li Linfu and An Lushan caused rebellion. Now the whole Goguryeo belongs to Li Linfu."

Hearing this news, Li Xiaogong and Li Mi were shocked. They couldn't figure out why so many things happened in these short ten days, and Li Linfu dared to make trouble.

Li Xiaogong looked at Li Shimin worriedly, he was recovering from a serious illness and didn't know if he could bear the bad news, he saw Li Shimin's body shaking, but he was still standing firmly in front of the army.

Under the narration of several people, Li Shimin and others knew what happened these days. It turned out that the information sent back by Zhang Liang, the traitor he sent, caused Li Linfu to dare to rebel.

Under the coercion and temptation of Li Linfu and An Lushan, most of Goguryeo has been controlled by them.

Li Shimin laughed helplessly. The spies he had arranged for Liu Bei's army turned out to be the spies Liu Bei had arranged for him. His uncle, whom he had always trusted, turned out to be his worst enemy. The world is really impermanent.
