"I don't know Your Majesty, what punishment will be given to me?"

Having suffered successive defeats at the hands of the Chu army before, Zhou Fashang was obviously apprehensive.

"Your Majesty ordered you to guard Pengcheng, even if you die."

Immediately, the Hou Guan began to speak.

"Chen Zhou Fashang, thank you for the opportunity given by Your Majesty."

The meaning in it is obvious, His Majesty does not intend to blame, the premise is to defend Pengcheng.

Naturally, Zhou Fashang bowed towards Youzhou.

"Currently, the main force of our army, Your Majesty, and the court and Chinese ministers are all in Puyang, Yanzhou."

The marquis conveyed the situation on the emperor's side.

"Great, the main force has finally arrived, and the time for Chu Jun and Yang Xuangan's death has arrived."

What does it represent, Zhou Fashang, who is clear about it, said excitedly.

The south of Yanzhou is bordered by Xuzhou, and their main force is not far from the Chu army. Yang Xuangan and others will undoubtedly die.

"However, General Zhou and your troops may need to hold on for a little longer."

Unexpectedly, the Hou Guan changed the topic.

"what for? "

The main force is close at hand, and Zhou Fashang is very puzzled if he still needs to persist.

"The Han army rising from Liangzhou took Luoyang and Sisai."

The Hou Guan said in a deep voice.

"What are you talking about, the unknown Han army took Luoyang, and there are still four fortresses!"

Hearing this, Zhou Fashang was startled in place, completely dumbfounded.

What kind of place is Luoyang, the capital of the Sui Dynasty, guarded by two veteran generals with [-] Xiaoguo guards, not to mention the surrounding four fortresses.

"Besides, the family members of the ministers of the court are all in Luoyang. His Majesty decided to fight the Han army first, and then destroy the Chu army."

The marquis continued.

"It's unbelievable!"

The doubts just now were solved directly. It turned out that the Han army had chips in their hands. The emperor and the court ministers had scruples, and they could only save their family members by fighting.

However, Zhou Fashang has not recovered from the horror just now.

"What is the origin of this Han army? It is so powerful!"

If Hou Guan hadn't told him himself, Zhou Fashang wouldn't have believed anything he said.

"Therefore, General Zhou, your troops must defend Pengcheng."

The Hou Guan said again.

"Please tell Your Majesty that I, Zhou Fashang, will definitely defend Pengcheng, and if I can't, I will end myself!"

Withdrawing his mind, Zhou Fashang said solemnly.

"General Zhou, these words will be conveyed, farewell."

After conveying the emperor's instructions, the Marquis official had to rush back to report.

"Walk slowly."

Immediately, Zhou Fashang politely sent the other party out of the mansion all the way.

"Come here, pass on the general's order, my main force is coming, and His Majesty is coming back too!

"No, General."

With this news, Zhou Fashang's exhaustion disappeared, and he was full of motivation

"The main force is back, and so is His Majesty!"

Soon, the news spread throughout the Sui army guarding Pengcheng, and their morale skyrocketed.

Moreover, all the fatigue on his body disappeared, and he broke out with stronger combat power.

"Great, soldiers, repel the Chu army!"

As the deputy general, Liu Gang swung his weapon forward with much more strength.

"What, Yang Guang and his main force are back?"

Yang Xuan, who was supervising the battle below the city, was startled and stared blankly at the severely repulsed Chu army.

"This speed is too fast, why come back!"

Hearing the cheers coming from his ears, Li Mi's face turned ashen.

"Chu Gong, when the morale of the Sui army is high, let's retreat first and confirm the authenticity of the news." Before he had time to think too much, Li Mi said hastily.

"Yes, come here, send an order, and retreat for the time being."

It will be useless to attack when the morale of the Sui army is high, Yang Xuangan said without thinking.

"retreat."

Immediately afterwards, the Chu army ended today's offensive and retreated like a tide.

"Yang Xuangan, Chu Jun, you won't be proud for long.v0"

Looking at the retreating Chu army below, not only Zhou Fashang thought so, but the rest of the Sui army defending the city were similar.

"Report, Duke Chu, Lord Li, a large number of suspected main forces of the Sui army marched into Yanzhou."

As soon as the two of them returned to the tent of the Chinese army, a scout from the Chu army rushed to report.

"Zhou Fashang didn't lie, the main force of the Sui Army is back!"

Once it was confirmed that it was really the main force of the Sui army, Yang Xuan felt instinctively afraid of that man, that is, the emperor Yang Guang.

Although the other party has offended many aristocratic families, it is undeniable that many people are afraid of Yang Guang.

"Emperor Sui came back faster than expected. It's abominable." Peng Cheng failed, and Emperor Sui came back again. Li Mi knew what it meant.

The situation that could have been revived turned into a deadlock again!

"Xuan Sui, what should I do?"

Yanzhou and Xuzhou were too close, Yang Xuangan completely panicked.

"Don't worry, Duke Chu, wait for your subordinates to ask the scouts."

It's useless to be anxious, Li Mi exhaled a foul breath, trying to calm himself down.

"Okay, you can ask."

When Yang Xuangan needed to calm down, he would not refuse.

"Any more news?"

Li Mi stared at the scout in front of him.

"Li, Master Li, [-] Sui troops marched to Teng County and Xiaopei, and the follow-up troops stayed put.

This look seemed to kill people in the next second, the scout said hesitantly.

"The last paragraph, you say it again."

He should have discovered something from it, Li Mi said hastily.

"The follow-up army stays put."

I didn't understand Master Li's meaning, but the scout still told the truth.

"I understand, you go down first."

After being confirmed, Li Mi's complexion looked pretty good.

promise.

The scout was relieved and quickly retreated.

"Xuan Sui, what should we do now?"

Even though he deliberately calmed down just now, Yang Xuangan still couldn't help panicking.

"Chu Gong, in the information that the scout just said, an important piece of information was revealed.

"The Sui army only sent 3 people to the north of Xuzhou, and the main force is still in Yanzhou."

Turning around, Li Mi said slowly.

"Why is the main force of the Sui army still in Yanzhou?

Hearing these words, Yang Xuan felt confused. What does this have to do with solving the predicament?

"Chu Gong, think about it. The main force of the Sui army did not choose to go south immediately. It was because the Han army occupying Luoyang and even the Central Plains was nearby."

Li Mi didn't hold back, and said bluntly.

"You mentioned it to me last time, so the main force of the Sui army and the Han army are going to fight."

Obviously, Yang Xuangan didn't realize anything yet.

"Duke Chu, the main force of the Sui army will fight with the Han army, but it won't continue."

"In the hands of the Han army, there are many family members of the court ministers!"

Seeing that Chu Gong still didn't understand, Li Mi went further.

"Xuan Sui, you mean!"

After such a reminder, Yang Xuan suddenly came to his senses.

"Yes, after the main force of the Sui army has fought the Han army, even if they win, they will not persecute the Han army. The most important thing is to save their families."

Li Mi said calmly.

"Then, he freed up his hands to deal with my Chu army, and finally turned around to deal with the Han army."

Only now did Yang Xuangan understand why the Sui army only sent 3 people.

That was restraining himself, and also the vanguard of destroying himself later.

"That's right, the Sui army's intention is exactly that, our army must take Pengcheng as soon as possible."

Pengcheng is the key, whether it can be won or not is related to the future of the Chu army, Li Mi exhaled heavily.

"But it's easier said than done. Zhou Fashang's troops know that the main force is about to go south, and when morale is at its highest, they will definitely defend." Yang Xuangan has never been so urgent, and urgently needs more time to break through Pengcheng.

"For the current plan, we will send the Han army again, and let them hold back the main force of the Sui army as much as possible."

In desperation, Li Mi came up with an idea, and his voice was still trembling.

Even if you don't mention it without telling the truth, other people will mention it, so it's better to mention it yourself.

"It's easier to go on a mission again, but the only thing missing is a generous gift."

The Han army is not short of money and food, and it is impossible to go there empty-handed. The probability of failure is very high. Why should they help the Chu army.

Yang Xuangan was not so innocent as to think that if the two sides form an alliance, the Han army will do everything they can.

"There is a generous gift, and that is your sister, Duke Chu."

When he said these words, Li Mi was really uncomfortable.

Because Chu Gong's younger sister is the woman I like, and she is going to tell Chu Gong about this marriage.

Even if you don't have an engagement, it's hard not to mention how uncomfortable it is to meet the woman you like by yourself.

"Yes, sister, if you marry someone like Cao Feng, it's not a loss."

Before changing it, Yang Xuangan definitely disagreed, but now that the achievements of the Han army are there, they won't be too resistant.They changed from the original alliance to the one with close relatives, and it was easy for the Han army to help the Chu army.

"If I knew it, I should have said it at the beginning."

Hearing these words, Li Mi felt even more uncomfortable. The first person he fell in love with was obviously himself.

In the end, it was Cao Feng who was about to get it.
