Longevity: I am in the quiet garden, the sun and the moon

One more chapter added above, and two more to follow.

Xing Bang looked at Li Lizhi who had a questioning look on his face, pulled her into his arms again, and said with a smile: "Don't look at your husband, I won't be able to escape my eyes until I get out of this Chinese army tent." !”

"Just smug you!"

Li Lizhi curled her lips. Although she said this mischievously, she believed it in her heart.

Now for her, when the two of them were alone together, he called himself her husband, and she felt extremely happy after hearing this.

Subconsciously I liked this kind of sweetness, so I didn't take it seriously at all.

Xing Bang looked at Li Lizhi and continued with a doting look on his face: "This is very obvious. Liu Li is not stupid either. He knows that the morale of his army is unstable, so he will naturally keep a close eye on it, especially the generals who are sent out and their families are basically safe." They’re all in the city.”

"Even if I have no intention of fighting anymore, I don't dare to act rashly for the sake of my family in the city!"

"Moreover, these surrendered soldiers and generals were able to come over so smoothly, I'm afraid the generals above turned a blind eye."

"Huh? I was just about to tell you this, but I didn't expect you to guess it. It's amazing!"

Li Lizhi looked at Xing Bang affectionately, her expression of admiration could not be concealed.

Looking at it like this, if the two of them were more intimate, I'm afraid Li Lizhi would directly reward her with a Xiangxiang, and then said softly: "Husband, you are so amazing, I really love you to death!"

Now, of course, it's almost meaningless.

"In that case, what information did the princess get from the surrendered soldiers?"

Li Lizhi hummed lightly, and then said: "Liu Li has ordered the front army to stand firm and not fight. Anyone who goes out to fight without his order will be killed without mercy!"

Hearing this, Xing Bang frowned slightly and said casually: "This is expected, but it is a bit surprising that Liu Li sent the order so quickly. It seems that he has already made up his mind."

Li Lizhi nodded, "Well, I am also worried about this. I vaguely feel that Liu Li may have some back-up plan."

Xing Bang hugged Li Lizhi tightly, laughed and said, "My eldest princess is still smart, she revealed the mystery with just one word."

"Well, but I haven't figured out Liu Li's intention yet, are you delaying time?"

Li Lizhi's expression was very happy and she blinked her eyebrows, which was still somewhat unpredictable.

Xing Bang nodded, "Yes, that's right, there is only one possibility. This move is to make these 10,000+ troops stand in a stalemate with us."

"But what is his purpose? Does he want to wait for work and finally lead an army to fight us, or does he have other plans?"

Li Lizhi was still a little puzzled.

Xing Bang continued: "It is not impossible, but now it seems that this possibility basically does not exist."

"If he wants to fight, he will definitely avoid his edge. At the very least, he will make the army retreat. This can avoid the morale of the front army to be chaotic."

"If we choose to continue the attack, Liu Li still has a city to hold on to, and there are 20 troops waiting for work at the rear. If things don't work, we can retreat to the city and hold on. There will be no shortage of food, grass and weapons."

Li Lizhi was like a little fan girl, nodding her head frequently, as if she had suddenly realized something.

Xing Bang smiled and continued: "Now he has a plan to use the soldiers outside the city as cannon fodder. It is obvious that he has only one last plan left, which is to defect to Northern Qi."

"Ah? Judging from the way Liu Li is preparing for the battle, he probably has no intention of surrendering to Beiqi. This is just one battle, so he won't be so timid, right?"

Obviously, it's not that Li Lizhi couldn't imagine this possibility, she just didn't think about it.

"He has 30 people at his disposal. What's more, he is the late emperor's prince and your majesty's younger brother. Are you so willing to betray your ancestors and become a lackey for Northern Qi?"

"That's the truth. But once he decides that he is invincible, he will just sit there and wait for death. When his life is at stake, he naturally won't worry so much."

"The important thing is that he is afraid of prolongation. It is not a question of whether to fight or not, but a matter of not being able to mobilize his generals."

"It seems that I have a high regard for Liu Li. I thought he could survive for a few days. It seems that there is no need to meet with him for a secret talk..."

Xing Bang slowly revealed all his analysis and guesses.

Li Lizhi nodded, "Then what should we do next?"

Xing Bang smiled slightly: "Stand still and wait and see what happens, and see what tricks Liu Li can pull off."

"Ah? If we stand still, wouldn't we be following Liu Li's wishes?"

Li Lizhi was very puzzled, thinking that if it dragged on like this, Liu Li might run away.

Xing Bang smiled slightly: "As the commander-in-chief, princess, your idea is absolutely right."

"However, now we should consider the long-term plan, which is more prudent and is most beneficial to us Dayao."

Hearing this, Li Lizhi suddenly understood and asked hurriedly: "Husband... no, you, are you not trying to stop Liu Li from switching to Beiqi?"

In desperation, Li Lizhi casually called her husband, but she still felt a little embarrassed.

Xing Bang didn't care, she just let her do whatever she wanted, and nodded.

"But, why is that?"

Li Lizhi got a positive answer, but she still didn't understand Xing Bang's magic.

Xing Bang chuckled, "Okay, then I'll tell you in detail."

"Princess, let me ask you, if we block it now, do we have to remove the more than [-] people in front of us first? Even if they all surrender, Liu Li still has a city to hold on to. If he wants to capture it, it will be difficult to conquer in a while. Said, and both sides will inevitably suffer heavy losses.”

"Yes, that's right. Besides, there's no better way!"

Li Lizhi nodded, but there were still many questions in her expression.

Xing Bang continued: "So, the conclusion is that if Liu Lili wants to switch to Beiqi, we can't stop him at all."

"Since we can't stop it, why should we bother ourselves and lose our troops? Why don't we just pretend not to know and let his wish come true."

"What's more, the reason why Northern Qi did not make any changes was because they wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers. No matter what the outcome is, it will all consume my Dayao's military strength..."

"My eldest princess, do you understand now?"

Li Lizhi nodded with admiration, "Husband, having you here is really my great blessing!"

Her words of "husband" really came from the bottom of her heart, and she admired Xing Bang even more in her heart, because he was thinking too deeply, and it was a level that she had not considered.

Xing Bang smiled, "So, we just need to wait calmly and see what the outcome of the negotiation between Liu Li and Bei Qi will be."
