General

It has to be said that, contrary to his rough appearance, Tuoba Han was indeed very cautious when marching.In the last few days of the journey, he has sent many spies to investigate all the routes he traveled many times. At night, there are layers of secret sentries, and every step is a clear post. The closer the distance, the more careful he is, always guarding against Li Xuan's night-time sneak attack. .

But to his surprise, the road was too peaceful, not only did he not encounter any obstruction, he didn't even see any movement of Long Xiao's army.

This weird calm made him hesitate, but in Nanli's eyes, it was deliberate delay and infinite hesitation.

……

Three days later, Tuoba Han finally led the army to the outside of Yuling Pass, the mighty Xuanming army was neatly arrayed in the wilderness, the cold wind was blowing, and the banners were constantly hunting.

Tuoba Han and Nanli stood side by side at the front of the line, looking sideways at the serious-faced eldest prince, but felt uneasy repeatedly in their hearts.As an army governor, Nanli has never been too involved in the war. Most of the time he hides in the camp or is surrounded by soldiers.

But today, unexpectedly, he rushed to the front with him, what is the reason?

But this is not the strangest thing, Tuobahan raised his head and looked towards the majestic city wall of Yuling Pass, and saw a faint crowd of people inside the wall, as if something had been laid in an ambush inside.But when he moved his eyes to the moat not far away, he saw that all the suspension bridges had not been put away, as if they were allowed to pass by.

Li Xuan...was playing tricks with himself?

Should we attack the city?

Just when Tuoba Han looked at the closed city gate of Yuling and fell into deep thought, a sneer full of mockery came from beside him: "General Tuoba has always been decisive, but now he is so hesitant, could it be that he is afraid what?"

Tuoba Han glanced sideways at Nanli who was full of sneering, but he didn't want to argue with him. He just frowned and said with a stern expression: "Li Xuan has always been resourceful and will not do things without reason. Now that the suspension bridge is lowered, the city wall But there is a vague ambush, I am afraid that it is a drama to invite you into the urn, we should be more cautious."

"The general has sent so many spies, do you really not know that Longxiao Kingdom has no soldiers?" Nanli snorted coldly, but his attitude was never seen before. "I'm afraid those in the city are Li Xuan and those peasants who came here along the way to requisition are nothing more. Is it true that the general cannot see such an obvious empty city plan, or is he pretending to hesitate because of some hidden secret?"

"Is it an empty plan? There is no basis now. Any hasty actions may lead to a big defeat." Tuoba Han could feel that there was something in the other party's words, but he didn't understand how he had offended him, so he could only suppress it. Furious, he forced himself to explain patiently.

"Then what do you think the general wants?" Nanli didn't have any intention of compromising, and continued to ask with raised eyebrows.

"The safest way now is to withdraw our troops." Tuobahan looked past Nanli and looked towards the surrounding mountains, "This Yuling Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it will be difficult to supply because of this. We block them from the outside world. There are only two roads, and when they run out of food and grass, we will win a big victory."

"Wait? Wait again?" Nanli hooked the corners of his mouth evilly, staring at Tuobahan as if he had seen through his tricks and jokingly said, "Is the general waiting for us to win without a fight, or is he waiting for Long Xiaoguo? reinforcements?"

Li Xuan looked at Nanli in astonishment, no matter what, he never thought that he could say such a thing.

"The general also said that the terrain here is dangerous, and there are only two roads to pass through. If we besiege the city here, as soon as the reinforcements arrive, we will be surrounded by enemies and have nowhere to go. What will we do then?"

"The military governor also said just now that Longxiao Kingdom has long run out of soldiers, so where can reinforcements come from?!" Tuoba Han also had a slight sullen look on his face, but in Nanli's eyes, it seemed that he had been told what was on his mind After that, the embarrassment turned into anger.

He looked back at Tuobahan without giving an inch, and snorted coldly: "There is no such thing now, but it does not mean that there will be no future. How do you know that there is no hidden power that is difficult to mobilize for a while?"

What he said made Tuobahan speechless, if he was in the court before, he would definitely have admired this dude, but now he is on the battlefield, but he doesn't know how to deal with it? !
