Chapter 39
Su Dingfang hurriedly commanded the army, intending to keep the Jiwu army who attacked the camp behind, but the gap had already been opened, and Li Dian, a first-class general, was leading the way to break through. They quickly left Liu Xiejun and disappeared into the darkness.Su Dingfang was afraid of the enemy's ambush, so he didn't dare to lead his troops to chase easily, so he had to withdraw his troops and go back to the camp to fight the fire and see what the loss was.

When Su Dingfang returned to the place where the grain and grass were stored, he found that the fire had been brought under control. Su Dingfang asked someone to count it, but luckily the damage was not too great.

Su Dingfang ordered people to put out the fire, and arranged for the generals to be responsible for patrolling the night. Only then did he have time to return to the Chinese army camp to report the battle situation to Liu Xie.

"Your Highness, when the Li family came to attack the camp this time, we had no intention of calculating. In addition to some food and grass being burned, there were more than two hundred people injured and seven people killed in battle. And we counted the enemy's corpses and found that their There were at least 300 casualties."

"This is a bit wrong, why is our casualty ratio a bit strange?" Liu Xie found something was wrong.

Su Dingfang replied: "The general of the enemy army is a formidable man, and his martial arts is somewhat stronger than that of General Zhou Cang. I fought with him for dozens of rounds, and I managed to beat him by virtue of strength. I don't know the name of this man. Whoever uses a two-meter-long spear, he fights with our soldiers, but only abolishes their temporary combat power and does not kill them all, so our casualty ratio is so disparate."

"Hey, it must be Li Dian showing mercy. It's just unreasonable. The two armies fight is a matter of life and death. Isn't it digging your own grave if you show mercy to the enemy? Li Dian was indeed a kind person in history, but he didn't As for showing mercy on the battlefield." Liu Xie was a little puzzled, how did he know that Li Dian had long been willing to take refuge in him.

"According to what General Su said, 1000 enemy troops came to attack the camp, with more than [-] casualties. This is more than [-]% of the troops lost in battle. They will definitely not attack the camp tonight. The soldiers went all the way, and experienced this again at night. After the battle, not only is the body exhausted, but the spirit is also extremely exhausted. General Su arranged for the soldiers to patrol and stand guard, but the army can rest." Yu Yunwen is more concerned about the overall problem of the army.

"Military commander, don't worry." It was not too early, Su Dingfang and Yu Yunwen performed the ceremony of resignation like Liu Xie, and went down to arm themselves to rest.

Sure enough, as Yu Yunwen expected, Li Dian did not come to attack the camp again.After a battle with Su Dingfang, Li Dian knew that there was such a general in Liu Xie's army. He retreated to a safe place and found that his hands had been slightly injured. out of ten.The lieutenant beside him was also slightly injured, and was shot in the chest by an arrow. Fortunately, he was far away from the mouth, and he was not seriously injured after the bandage.After they counted the people, they found out that out of 1000 people went, only 600 people came back, and none of them was unharmed.Only at this time did they realize that Liu Xie's army was not a mob. It was really difficult for them to win this battle.

Li Dian saw that the morale of the soldiers was low, and there was no good solution for a while, so he began to reflect and even blamed himself.But he has done a good job, but because the Li family's scouts only stayed in Jiwu territory for a rest, they didn't know the news that Liu Xie's army was repaired in advance ten miles away from Jiwu. defeat.But Li Dian didn't know all of this. Fortunately, it was all due to him fighting bravely and opening a breakout for everyone. Later, he was the one who blocked Su Dingfang, and everyone was able to break through. Therefore, the captain and everyone did not blame him for commanding. Ineffective, but admire him very much.

Li Dian and the captain retreated all the way with their soldiers and horses, not daring to attack Liu Xie easily.Liu Xie's army did not drive straight in, but marched steadily all the way to ensure that there was no problem with the supply line of food and grass before advancing, so the marching speed was not fast.From time to time, Li Dian seized the opportunity to harass Liu Xie's army to rest.Whenever Liu Xie's army had just rested at night, Li Dian ordered everyone to beat the gongs and drums, and flee away as soon as Liu Xie sent troops out.Li Dian sometimes launched some tentative raids, but every time before Liu Xie could react, Li Dian immediately led his army to flee.Li Dian and the others were familiar with the terrain, and Liu Xie couldn't help him.It's just that although such harassment has a certain impact on Liu Xie's army, it has no effect on changing the direction of the entire Jiwu battle. At least now, Liu Xie's army has finally arrived at Jiwu City.

Liu Xie followed Yu Yunwen's suggestion and did not immediately besiege the city. Instead, he asked Su Dingfang to set up camp before bringing an army of [-] to Jiwu City.

On the city wall of Jiwu, the people of the Li family have already made preparations for the battle.The Li's military flag fluttered in the wind, making a clattering sound.Li Hong and Li Dian also led troops to garrison on the city wall, with strong bows and crossbows, rolling stones and trees, all arranged, and there was a chill.Originally, Li Hong wanted to have an upright contest with Liu Xie in the wild, but after Li Dian and the others came back and explained the strength of Liu Xie's army, Li Hong lost confidence and focused on stability, leading the army into his own country. I want to use the advantage of the city wall to stop Liu Xie's army.

Liu Xie asked Su Ding to call forward, and Li Yan, Li Hong, Li Dian and others were all there on the tower.Li Yan couldn't help but yelled: "Liu Xie, you are the king of Chenliu, the big man, and you have used such treacherous schemes to plot against me and myself. It's like throwing the face of the royal family. In the future, you will definitely die!"

How could Su Dingfang allow Li Yan to continue insulting Liu Xie, and he shouted loudly: "Old thief Li Yan, hand over our general Dian Wei Dian, Your Highness can spare your life, if you still lead your troops to resist, the city will be broken." At that time, it will be the day when your Li family will be wiped out."

Li Hong couldn't help scolding: "When Dian Wei came to my Li's teahouse to make troubles, kidnapped my nephew for a long life, and finally escaped from Jiwu, it was seen by everyone. Now you want to use this excuse to swallow me, Jiwu, and destroy me. Isn't my Li family ridiculous?"

Su Dingfang had already obtained Yu Yunwen's acceptance before, and immediately retorted: "If it is true as you said, General Dian captured your nephew, but for money, if not, why?"

"This..." Li Hong was at a loss for words. Dian Wei made a big fuss at the beginning. Although he had to pay for all soups and medicines and mental damage, but at the last moment, he didn't ask for any money. He didn't dare to tell lies.

"I will ask you again, when General Ri Dian escaped from Jiwu City by virtue of his own bravery, did you ever send someone to chase and kill him?" Su Dingfang continued to ask.

"This, this..." Li Hong also couldn't deny that Li Yan did send troops to search the mountains, but they returned in vain. Unexpectedly, now it became the reason for Liu Xie's questioning.

"Hmph, after General Dian came to Jiwu, he has never returned to our army. Presumably, you must have sent an army to catch him because of enmity. Now I will give you a moment to think about it. As long as you hand over General Dian, Your Highness is benevolent, and only punishes the first evil, if not, we will be punished as treason." Su Dingfang shouted loudly, and ordered someone to bring up a copper stove with freshly lit incense.Then he patted his horse and returned to the army, dispatching troops and generals.
