Unparalleled Concubine

Ye Mao stood behind Li Xin, silent.

General Li frowned and thought for a while, then asked, "Is there any answer from Zhongwu?"

In this situation, there is no choice but to cooperate with the Zhong family army and forcefully rush out of the encirclement of the Qigui tribe.

"not yet."

Ye Mao lowered his head and said, "According to the time, the letter is estimated to have just arrived in Yunzhou City. It is still unknown whether the Zhong Family Army will venture out of the city to meet us. Even if they are willing to go out of the city, I am afraid there will not be too many."

Speaking of this, Ye Mao was silent for a while, and said in a muffled voice: "Besides, the news that my uncle and I have left the customs has probably already been sent to the capital, the emperor in the capital, does he really want us to return to the customs alive? No one can tell."

Li Xin shook his head: "This is the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army of the imperial court. To put it bluntly, even if all of these 1 people die outside the pass, I am sure that you and I will enter the pass safely."

Speaking of this, Li Xin waved his hand: "Order to stop the army and set up camp on the spot."

Facing the military order, Ye Mao did not hesitate at all, and immediately nodded in agreement. Not long after, more than 1 people stopped and found a sloping soil slope to set up camp.

It was still afternoon when the camp was set up, and the sun had almost set on the hillside when the tents were set up. Li Xin called together a group of generals including Ye Mao, and dozens of them sat neatly on the flat ground in Li Xinshuai's tent.

Li Xin was the only one sitting on the chair with a serious expression on his face.

"Masters must already know what's going on now. The Qi Gui Department is blocking the way ahead. Even if we rush over, there are not many people left, so we can't force it."

Speaking of this, Li Xin said in a deep voice: "Let's set up camp here for the time being, and the scout battalion will send two captains to check behind us. If we find someone following us, come and report back immediately."

In addition to intelligence issues, there are specific defense issues and military deployment issues. Ye Mao is more professional than Li Xin in these matters. Li Xin simply asked Ye Mao to preside over this "military meeting". Standing up on the ground, he arranged the errands of all the captains and captains in threes, fives and twos. In half an hour, all the generals in the commander's tent dispersed, leaving only Li Xin and Ye Mao.

Ye Mao took a sip of water, looked at Li Xin, and said with a wry smile: "Master, although it's not easy to rush over, since the Qi Gui Department is blocking the way ahead, Yu Wenzhao Bacheng will catch up from behind, we can't wait here die."

He looked at Li Xin, and asked, "What is the situation of the Helan Department now...?"

Li Xin sat back in his seat, and said silently: "Shen Gang has already gone to the Helan Department in person, and the situation of the Helan Department will be sent back in the next few days. We will wait here for three days. After three days, if There is no news from the Helan Department, so they are going to forcibly rush through the defense line of the Qigui Department."

Ye Mao nodded in agreement, then found a chair in the handsome tent and sat down, looked at Li Xin, and said, "Uncle, three days later... If you can't wait for the news from the Helan Department, you will Let Shen Gang take you into the pass secretly, and leave this place to me."

Li Xin looked at Ye Mao with a frown, shook his head and said, "There is no such reason, even if I want to leave, I will take you with me."

Ye Mao smiled.

"I have two sons, and one of them has been sent to the southwest. Even if something happens to me, the incense of the Ye family will not be cut off. Now that Jimen Pass has been broken, the Zhenbei Army is almost gone. My father and grandfather have worked hard for decades. Destroyed at once, if I can die outside the pass, I will not be ashamed of the Ye family."

After being forced from Jimen Pass and the Zhenbei Army suffered heavy casualties, Ye Mao seldom smiled, and there was always a knot in his heart.

Li Xin frowned and walked in front of Ye Mao, and said, "You didn't lose the Jimen Pass, so what does it have to do with you?"

"Before Master Ye left, he asked me to take good care of you. If I don't nod, you will not die. Otherwise, how will I explain to Master Ye in the future?"

General Li reached out and patted Ye Mao's shoulder, and said softly, "Relax."

"I promise you, no matter what, the Zhenbei Army will rebuild."

"The blood feud at Jimen Pass will definitely be avenged by you in the future."

Chapter 1015 Are you, Li Changan, a saint?

The Qigui tribe stopped in front of him. As a last resort, Li Xin could only camp on the spot and wait for news from the Helan tribe. This waited for three days.

For three days, there was no news from the Helan Department. What's worse, Yu Wenzhao who came from Jizhou had already brought 1 people with him, blocking Li Xin's retreat.

Sitting in the tent of the Chinese army, Li Xin placed a rough map outside the pass in front of him. He pointed to the Qigui Department in front of him and said slowly: "The Qigui Department currently has only 1 soldiers capable of fighting. Many people, we rely on the power of the thunder, and if we fight with our backs, we may be able to rush over."

Fighting against the wall means that there is no escape route behind him, and now the retreat route is blocked by Yu Wenzhao, which is no different from a big river behind him. At this time, he must risk his life and fight for the last time.

Yes, because there was no news from the Helan tribe, Li Xin was ready to fight to the death with the Qigui tribe.

There was no way around it. Now Yu Wenzhao was only about three hundred miles away from them. If he hesitated any longer and was surrounded by others, he would not be able to get out even if he wanted to.

Pointing to the map, he said to Ye Mao, "Go ahead, we will break out tomorrow evening. We are not good at riding and shooting, so we will abandon our bows and crossbows and use long knives to fight the Qigui tribe in close combat. We can rush as much as possible at night." Go to the front of the Qigui tribe, so as not to be mass-killed by their bows and arrows."

Having said that, Li Xin paused.

"In addition, those who charge in the front row each send out a thunderbolt. How to use it depends on the situation."

Ye Mao nodded, and said in a deep voice, "The last general will make arrangements now!"

After speaking, Ye Mao got up and left the tent, while Li Xin stayed in the tent alone with his eyes closed and meditating.

To be honest, no matter what happens to this cavalry, he himself will not be in too much danger. Now he has many Anbu protections nearby, and it may not be enough to protect a large group of troops from retreating, but to protect Ye Mao and Li Xin It is not difficult for the two of them to return to the pass. The crux now is whether the more than 1 imperial guards that Li Xin brought out of the pass can go back alive.

When he was thinking about something in the camp, a messenger walked into the big tent, half-kneeled in front of Li Xin, and said: "General, the Xianbei people sent a letter, and I want to deliver it to the general... ..."

Li Xin asked, "Which direction did it come from?"

"Back to the general, it was sent from the east."

The Qigui tribe is in the northwest of the Jin Dynasty, and Jizhou City is in the northeast direction. The letter sent from the east is Yu Wenzhao's letter.

Li Xin nodded, stretched out his hand to take the letter, and after briefly reading it, he asked the messenger, "Has the messenger left?"

"No, I'm still waiting for news from the general in the camp."

Li Xin thought for a while, and then said: "Then you tell him, I agree."

The orderly bowed his head in response, and then withdrew from the command post.

The content of the letter is very simple, Yu Wenzhao wants to see himself.

After such a long time, Yu Wenzhao finally found out who was leading the cavalry that was doing things outside the customs. After knowing that it was Li Xin, Yu Wenzhao wrote such a letter to Li Xin almost without hesitation.

During wartime, the generals of both sides usually have their own rules when meeting. For example, if Yu Wenzhao took the initiative to meet Li Xin, the time and place of the meeting should be decided by Li Xin. Of course, this place cannot be set within the control of both sides. , to try to ensure the safety of both parties.

Li Xin picked up a pen and wrote back a letter to Yu Wenzhao. The two sides agreed to meet at a place a hundred miles east of Li Xin's camp, each with fifty soldiers and horses. This location is closer to Li Xin's headquarters. what danger.

The time was set at noon the next day.

Early the next morning, Li Xin refused Ye Mao's request to meet Yu Wenzhao in his place, and ordered Ye Mao to prepare to break out of the siege in the camp. He himself led fifty cavalry and headed eastward to the agreed place.

When Li Xin received the letter yesterday, he had already asked people to simply set up a tent here, and then left more than a dozen people to guard the surroundings, guarding against any traps set by the Xianbei people, but Yu Wenzhao was very honest this time, and even I didn't even send anyone to come here to see it, so I came to the meeting frankly.

When Li Xin arrived on horseback, the co-lord of the Yuwen tribes was already waiting for Li Xin under the tent.

Li Xin got off his horse, threw the reins to the guards beside him, stepped into the modest hut, and cupped his hands at Yu Wenzhao: "Heavenly King, long time no see."

The two of them met once in the eighth year of Taikang, and they sat together and made a covenant. At that time, Yu Wenzhao was a middle-aged man in his 40s, and Li Xin was a young man in his 20s. Seven years passed in a blink of an eye. King Yuwen has gray hair all over his head, and the Marquis of Jing'an back then has also reached middle age.

Yu Wenzhao stood up from under the poncho, instead of saluting to Li Xin, he looked Li Xin up and down, with a complex expression on his face.

After a long time, he opened his mouth slowly.
