Empress, you don't want to be thrown into limbo by your father, do you?

Jinyang City.

Looking from a distance, one can see that the walls are high and thick. Although it is not as awesome as the capital city, which is ten feet tall, it is also enough to be called easy to defend and difficult to attack.

And twenty miles outside the city, it was the camp where the imperial court's anti-insurgency army was stationed.

At this moment, there are people in the big tent of the Chinese army who are arguing fiercely.

"General, we have been waiting for more than ten days, how long will we have to wait?"

As the coach, although Huo Wei is not very young, he has already used amazing achievements to convince all the generals, big and small.

However, there were disagreements on whether to storm Jinyang City.

Huo Wei was sitting in the main seat, his face didn't show too many emotional fluctuations, and he was a little more stable than before when he obviously experienced this series of changes and exercises.

Seeing that the lieutenant general under his command was about to call for battle, he just shook his head and said, "Jinyang City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are still tens of thousands of people defending it. If you want to attack the city by force, you will suffer a lot of casualties. In addition, Guo Peng threatened the lives of the people in the city. Can't attack by force!"

"General! We all understand what you said, but His Majesty ordered us to put down the rebellion and kill the traitor Guo Peng as soon as possible. Now that more than a month has passed, His Majesty may blame him!"

"Yes, General, we have been waiting for more than ten days, at least let the last general and others have a try!"

"General!"

Several generals wanted to call for battle one after another. They knew that the people in the city were innocent, but the imperial edict was hard to do. Moreover, they were soldiers and had to obey orders.

This kind of quarrel did not just happen today.

At the beginning, everyone could hold their breath, but as time dragged on, even their morale would be affected.

And there's trouble!
Sure enough, the person in charge of the army's food and grass cupped his hands and said, "General, there are only three days left of our army's food and grass. Once Jinyang City cannot be captured within three days..."

The implication is that once the food and grass are exhausted, their only choice is to withdraw their troops.

Otherwise, if there is no food and grass, and Guo Peng in Jinyang City knows about it, the consequences will be disastrous!
"Is there a way to gather enough food and grass?"

Huo Wei frowned and asked, when he led the army to go out, he didn't bring too much food and grass, but Guo Peng, who fought almost all the way in a blitzkrieg, lost his helmet and armor, and lost no fighting spirit when he was defeated.

Coupled with the fact that the imperial court has won the hearts of the people, the food and grass along the way went smoothly.

But things are different now.

"The last general has already sent people to collect food and grass around, but Guo Peng is clearly prepared. Before we came, he had already searched all the food and grass in the people's homes. Now not only our army has no food and grass, but even the people around..."

The implication is not to mention collecting enough food and grass, they have to distribute part of the food and grass to the people.

"Guo Peng is so vicious, isn't he afraid of God's punishment?!"

Several generals in the tent yelled angrily, but there was nothing they could do about it. If there was a way, they wouldn't wait here for nearly half a month in vain.

"General, it's better to make a decision as soon as possible. If we don't need Guo Peng to send troops, we will be in a mess."

A deputy general proposed again, "According to the general, if the general does not want to take risks, he can order the general and others to choose carefully from the army and find a hundred dead soldiers. The general is willing to lead the climb up the city wall in the dark. Open the city gate!"

"The last will also be willing!"

"Me too!"

Several lieutenants asked for a fight one after another, they would rather fight than retreat in such a grievance.

Otherwise, the suppression of the rebellion will be anticlimactic, and they will be held accountable even when they return to the capital.

Of course, there were some complaints in most of the words, as if they were complaining that Huo Wei was too cautious and stayed on the sidelines for so long.

Hearing their invitation to fight, Huo Wei didn't make a sound, but someone around him couldn't help but said angrily, "Generals, no one in this camp wants to kill Guo Peng more than my young master. Do you still doubt my young master's intentions?" Are you determined?"

The person who spoke was Ling Heng. Of course, the surname Huo was restored and changed to Huo Heng.

"That's right! Compared to you, my young master would like to cut Guo Peng into pieces with his own hands. There must be a reason why you don't move. Why are you all inferior to me?"

Huo Ha couldn't help but roll his eyes, their brothers were Huo Wei's bodyguards and his right and left hands, and they also led the army this time.

"That's not what we mean, and we don't doubt General Huo."

"Okay, I will make my own decision about the siege."

……

The few people in the big tent didn't know that when they were arguing fiercely, someone outside was stopping and listening quietly.

What's even more weird is that, despite the fact that tens of thousands of troops are stationed, and there are so many patrols around, no one has noticed that outsiders have broken in.

"Your Majesty, my concubine has already contacted the Eight Great Sects and other sects in Jianghu, and experts will come to help out one after another in these two days."

Apart from Li Changshou, there is no second choice in the world to enter the camp without a sound, and he is still swaggering.

Even if the masters in the camp are like clouds, it is impossible to prevent him, a heavenly man, otherwise even if the master comes, he will never return. After all, there are many masters and masters here.

"This Huo Wei is more calm than I imagined."

Li Changshou smiled and did not reject An Huixuan's kindness. He held Huo Wei in high regard, not entirely because of his love for the house, but also for his talents.

But jade can't be cut, so he wants to let Huo Wei grow up as soon as possible, so that he can be independent.

This counter-insurgency is an opportunity.

He also wanted to see how Huo Wei was doing, otherwise he would be able to solve the troubles that Huo Wei encountered right now.

Either kill Guo Peng directly, or find someone to open the gate of Jinyang City.

Even if he is a little more tactful, he can help Huo Wei collect enough food and grass for tens of thousands of people for a month through the system.

But he didn't do that, he just wanted to see how Huo Wei could break the situation.

"Your Majesty came here on purpose for Sister Zhaojun?"

Gu Xiaoya smiled lightly, she doesn't need to be jealous, in other people's eyes she is no different from Wei Zhaojun, but in fact the difference is huge!

It can be seen from the discussion of rewards for meritorious deeds that Gu Fan's rewards and canonizations are all higher than Huo Wei's.

"It's, it's not. I'm very optimistic about Huo Wei. If I can practice a little bit, I can partner with Gu Fan in the future."

Li Changshou also blurted out subconsciously, and then realized that he had slipped the tongue.

But except that Gu Xiaoya knew it well, An Huixuan and Lilia didn't notice it, and Gu Xiaoya didn't point it out with a slight smile.

"Then His Majesty really wants to stand by and watch?"

Lilia didn't understand Li Changshou's decision very much. In her opinion, shouldn't she do everything possible to kill the rebellious officials and thieves as soon as possible instead of wasting time here?
This is the thinking deviation caused by the different concepts of Europa and the Central Plains.

"Don't worry, people always have to encounter some setbacks before they can grow. A smooth experience will often destroy a good seedling."

Li Changshou smiled and explained a few words.

But Lilia obviously couldn't understand, but Gu Xiaoya and An Huixuan felt the same way, knowing that Li Changshou had worked hard.

Huo Wei was the pinnacle when he appeared on the stage, and he became famous all over the world in the first battle. In addition, as the orphan of the Huo family, he was crowned with the halo of his father back then. bane.

"Give him a few days, if the food and grass are exhausted and he can't figure out a way to defeat the enemy, then it won't be too late for me to take action."

If he can come, he will naturally not let this counter-insurgency return without success.

Guo Peng's life has always been in his hands, and it is easy to want Guo Peng to die.

Compared with Guo Peng's life and death, what he values ​​is whether Huo Wei can grow up quickly, after all, there is not much time left for him.

Soon there will be news from the Protectorate of the Western Regions that Li Changshou has arranged for the Imperial City Division to dispatch manpower in advance. As for whether there will be a mysterious Eastern Expeditionary Army like the result simulated by the fate simulator, it depends. It's finally over.

"Let's take a look first."

Li Changshou was about to leave when he suddenly heard some movement.

It turned out that after those generals left, General Huo Wei and Second General Heng Ha and a few confidantes stayed behind. These people were all from the Huo family, so they naturally gained Huo Wei's trust.

After the others left, Huo Wei finally revealed his plan.

"Young master, you want to feign defeat?"

No one expected that Huo Wei had a plan long ago, and what he was waiting for was the few days when the food and grass ran out.

Hearing his plan, Huo Heng frowned quickly, "Is this too risky?"

"I think the young master is smart. Then Guo Peng is just a bastard. He didn't dare to come out in Jinyang City. The young master doesn't want to lose troops and generals to attack the city, and he is afraid of hurting innocent people in the city. It may be true now. Can lure Guo Peng out of the city!"

Huo Ha grinned and said, he has blind trust in Huo Wei, and everything he says is right anyway.

Several other generals from the Huo family's trilogy, after pondering over their plans, also said, "Although the major general's plan is risky, it is still a way to defeat the enemy!"

"It's true that taking a risk is a bit risky, but as long as the plan is to lure the snake out of the hole, there is a great chance to capture Guo Peng in one fell swoop!"

"But this matter needs to be extremely careful, and how can we convince Jinyang City that our army has mutinied due to insufficient food and grass, and lure them out of the city?"

Several people made plans one after another.

But outside the tent, Li Changshou smiled as he listened.

He knew that Huo Wei would not let him down. In fact, with Huo Wei's ability and the fact that [-] of the [-] troops came from the Jiangdong elite, it was not impossible to forcibly attack the city.

But it is bound to lose troops and lose generals, and since ancient times, military conquests have only known how to attack by force and crush them with elites and numbers. How can they prove their own ability?

"I've been prepared!"

Huo Wei obviously had a plan in mind.

……

Jinyang City has been shrouded in haze for the past month.

The streets and alleys also looked a little deserted, and the people in the city either left in a hurry or looked worried.

It has been half a month since the imperial court suppressed the rebellion army outside the city, and now the city gates are closed, and everyone feels that the sky is about to fall.

But not everyone is worried, and there are still people who can enjoy themselves and enjoy themselves in such a situation.

And this time.

The largest in Jinyang City is the Guo Mansion.

The sound of silk and bamboo came into my ears, and it didn't look like the enemy at all.

Guo Peng was even laughing and playing among a group of maids in the mansion. The scene made Li Changshou feel inferior.

"A fool like me doesn't know how to enjoy myself."

Yes, Li Changshou entered Jinyang City very easily. After all, there was nothing in the world that could stop him.

What's more, there is an inner ghost leading the way for him, and this inner ghost is none other than Wang Gonggong.

Of course, now Wang Gonggong has resumed his status as the elder of the Demon Sect and has become Guo Peng's biggest aide.

"Your Majesty, are you going to kill Guo Peng tonight?"

Elder Wang asked cautiously, he had already seen Gu Xiaoya, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Seeing An Huixuan and recognizing her as the famous master of the Immortal Sect, the pressure was indescribable.

"Has the people from the main altar of the Demon Sect arrived?"

Li Changshou didn't come here for Guo Peng at all, he came to Jinyang City for other goals.
