The wise and brave young monarch marquis, how could he still not understand at this time.

All kinds of abnormalities not only show that Tanshi Huai is in the camp, and he is not dead.

Gather the horses and go to the enemy's head. The team traveled day and night and returned to the city of Baitan.

The reason why Liu Bei lamented that he had fallen short. It's because he is only one sword away from killing Xianbei Da Danyu.

The men and horses returned to camp. Don't rush to wash, this will bring the Xianbei Da Yan clan to the tent.

"The old man who was plagued by the plague in the previous tent is a sandalwood locust?"

Da Yan nodded slightly: "It is Xianbei Da Dan Yu Tanshi Huai." ”

Liu Bei let out a long sigh.

Who would have thought that the vertical and horizontal, the soldiers and horses are very prosperous, the south is copied to the edge, the north is rejected by Ding Ling, the east is more than the husband, the west is attacked by Wusun, according to the Xiongnu homeland, the east and the west are all returned. More than 4,000 miles from east to west, more than 7,000 miles from north to south, covering the mountains, rivers, rivers, and salt ponds, Xianbei is a big single in sandalwood acacia. is in the prime of life, but he is so old! There is no trace of heroism in his body.

Dying, Liu Bei even disdained to kill him!

In other words, even that Huang Sui is quite beautiful. Liu Bei couldn't bear to be humiliated, so he gave his whole family a happy time. Who would have thought that Xianbei Da Danyu, who was in the limelight for a while, would be such a good thing!

"Da Dan Yu is tormented by the plague. As you can see. Time is numbered. The Great Clan's mouth spoke calmly. There was no joy or sorrow on his face. No wonder he died four years later for no reason, and it turned out that he had already contracted a serious disease.

It's no wonder that Helian was also present at the time. It must be to serve his father and sleep in peace. In this way, some make sense.

Huang Zhong then asked, "Young Master, what should I do now?" ”

Even though Liu Bei was helpless, he was helpless. If you miss a blow, the Xianbei royal court will be on guard. Maybe at this time, the Xianbei rangers are constantly rushing towards the royal court.

When the troops were withdrawn, they galloped all the way, and Liu Bei did not have time to hide his whereabouts. Besides, there are so many war horses that there is no way to hide. The Xianbei army only needs to go south by the way, and it will be able to reach Baitan City in a few days.

When the time comes, the army will be encircled......

Liu Bei's heart moved: "Dare to ask the queen, what about Da Danyu?" ”

Da Yan glanced at Liu Bei, and then said: "The hatred of killing a son, the hatred of taking a wife, is not shared." ”

Liu Bei smiled and nodded: "That's it, very good." ”

The surprise of the Great Clan was all on his face: "What does the general want?" ”

Liu Bei asked rhetorically: "How can the queen not know?" ”

Without waiting for her to answer, he ordered Wu Lian to take her down, search her body and change her clothes, and let the female guards under her command take care of her and not abuse her.

Huang Zhong hugged his fists and said: "Young master to defend the city? ”

Liu Bei smiled and nodded: "Exactly." ”

"The sandalwood acacia does not die, and the freshness does not disperse. If I withdraw, I will be angry with the Han army and the people. When the three-way Han army is destroyed, the border county military disasters will continue. The people were slaughtered, and there was no rooster crow for thousands of miles, just to avenge the blood of killing their sons and wives. ”

Huang Zhong nodded: "In this way, the young master needs to make a good living." ”

"Don't worry about your father." Liu Bei smiled happily: "I already have a plan." ”

When Wulian returned to resume his life, Liu Bei withdrew everyone in the tent and whispered: "Is there a loyal and brave soldier under his command?" ”

Wu Lian was stunned: "There are warriors on the left and right, why do you ask here?" ”

Liu Bei said in a low voice: "I have a major matter of life and death, and I can't trust each other unless I am a loyal and brave soldier." ”

Seeing Liu Bei's solemn expression, Wu Lian nodded: "I'll go and call him." ”

Wait for Wulian to summon the dead. Liu Bei looked up and couldn't help but be surprised: "Yan Rou?!" ”

"My lord." Yan Rou clasped her fists and saluted.

"Why are you here?" Liu Bei hurriedly lowered his voice. He would never have imagined that Yan Rou would go out in disguise. All the way to eat and live in the Xiwu Iron Cavalry Camp, Liu Bei didn't know at all!

"If the lord can come, Yan Rou can also come." Yan Rou is young and old, and his body is only slightly weaker than Liu Bei. He is sophisticated, and no one regards him as a weak-crowned teenager.

Liu Bei sighed: "Could it be Yan Zhi......"

"Also in the army." And so it was.

Yan Rou, Yan Zhi, two brothers, of course, are dead soldiers. It's just that it's going to be difficult, and both of them are young. It is a matter of life and death, how can Liu Bei be easily entrusted.

Seeing Liu Bei's hesitation, Yan Rou suddenly knelt on the ground: "It is within the minister's duty to worry about the lord's lord." Yan Rou is gone, and he will not look back even if he dies! Please make it clear! ”

Liu Bei sighed: "This is a difficult and dangerous trip, you have to be fully prepared." All the way is Xianbei Ranch, if you are interrogated, how to get out? ”

Yan Rou hugged his fists and said: "Rou knows Hu language, is often a philistine in Yizhong, and knows all Hu outside the city. If he was investigated, he falsely said that he was a slave under the command of Lord Xianbei of other departments, and he contacted the royal court. The Hu people will not be suspicious. ”

"Don't stick to it, be improvised." Liu Bei thought about it carefully. In this matter, perhaps only Yan Rou is the right person.

There are generally three ways to seal the book: sealing, enveloping and sealing. When the matter was secret, Liu Bei took a bag and sealed it with a white silk handwriting. and put a burlap bag on the outside of the bag and sealed it. Handing it over to Yan Rou in person: "Xianbei will come with the whole army, and it will take at least three days." Take advantage of these three days, you and others will go west along the north and south valley roads of Yinshan Mountain to find the traces of the Han army of the three routes. If you encounter the Han army, you will hand over this bag to the person who leads the army. Let's just say: a thousand years of merit, in one fell swoop. Remember! ”

"Whoa!" Yan Rou took the order and left.

Liu Bei summoned Lu Chong again and handed him another bag of tips and handed him personally: "General Lao Fu will go to Lu Long and hand over the bag to Wei Xi." ordered him to whip up quickly, pass it to Pingbo Shuiqi, and hand it over to Cheng Pu with his own hands. There must be no mistakes. ”

"Whoa!" Lü Chong and a Yi Shi embroidered clothes rushed out of the city.

After thinking about it, nothing is missing. Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief. Hungry in her belly, Ulian has already brought food.

The wind swept the clouds, and ate a full meal. Then he got up and walked out of the tent: "How is the battle damage?" ”

"It's too small to count." Wu Lian said: "Several people were seriously injured, and more than 100 people were lightly injured. No one died. ”

Liu Bei nodded: "Horse vehicles? ”

"The machine carts are all destroyed, and the horses are increasing." Ulen replied.

The machine arrow cart was set on fire by the Xianbei King's horse. The only concern is a technology breach. The vehicles have all been burned, and even if Xianbei wants to imitate it, there is no trace of it.

"Properly place the horses, I'm afraid they won't be needed lately." When the Xianbei army arrived, they surrounded Baitan City like an iron bucket. Defending the city with horses is useless.

Ulen replied, "It's fine. Whether it's Wuhuan or Shanman, they are all good at shooting. On the wall to garrison, no weaker than a crossbowman. After a pause, he said, "The only worry is that I am afraid that there will be more bows and fewer arrows, and I will not be able to hold it for ten days." ”

Liu Bei smiled: "Ten days is enough." If I don't quit, I have a plan. ”

Knowing that the young prince and the marquis want to defend the city to the death. The generals did not mention their own troops.

Scouts traveled back and forth to the grassland road on the dam, searching for traces of Xianbei. Taking advantage of the last free time, the brick kiln that started day and night produced another 100,000 bricks. It's too late to wrap the wall. Liu Bei ordered craftsmen to build bricks behind the wall and build trapezoidal piers to strengthen the walls. Several new wells in the city were filled with fresh water. Grain and grass are available. Lou mulberry season is ripe, and the grain and grass are transported all year round. This year is a big drought and locust plague, but there can also be a bumper harvest. The Northland is full of hunger, and the grasslands are no exception. Even if the trick fails, can Xianbei besiege the city for a year?

The middle of winter is approaching, and it is extremely cold to the bone.

People eat horses and chew, why do they last for a long time.

There are three things that the Hu people rely on: "water grass", "stalking", and "salt land".

Grass refers to hay. The grasslands were yellow, and the grass was eaten by locusts. In the case of a three-way attack by the Han army, the herdsmen migrated one after another, unable to raise livestock. The fodder has long been exhausted, and there is still no grass to store! If the Han army can be defeated as soon as possible, the heavy grain and grass obtained may be able to last for several months. Then plundered the border counties of the northern lands and fed on the Han people. Survive this natural disaster, Xianbei will be strong.

However, Tanshi Huairuo was bent on putting Liu Bei to death and besieged the city with heavy troops. There is no time for anything else. The number of humble spirits is about to be exhausted. For decades, they attacked each other, and the war continued. No longer able to go south.

Wait for Liu Bei to reorganize the old mountains and rivers and send troops to the Northern Expedition. Can be slaughtered in a war.

Xianbei and Yan Han luck and national Zuo are all fighting here.
