"General Nan, what should we do now?" Henan Jiedushi Helan Jinming refused to send reinforcements, which caused the soldiers who followed Nan Jiyun out of the city to seek help to fall into despair.

"Let's go to Zhenyuan and then to Ningling. I don't believe that the Tang Dynasty is full of timid villains like Helan Jinming." Nan Jiyun gritted his teeth and said, hoping that Li Ben from Zhenyuan and Lian Tan from Ningling would not be like Helan Jinming.

"Yes, general." After saying that, the troops set out again, but then there were continuous sounds of gurgling sounds in the team. Nan Jiyun felt a little guilty, "It was Nan who was impulsive just now. You have not yet entered the rice since you followed Nan and have not entered the rice before. You should have eaten his mother's meal before talking."

"Look at what the general said, after eating food like Helan Jinming like, the young one is afraid of being poisoned." Even though they had been hungry all day, these soldiers had no complaints about Nan Jiyun's actions just now. They joked cheerfully, not wanting to feel any guilt in their respected boss.

"We will arrive at Zhenyuan later, let General Li prepare some wine and meat for us. I guess General Li's food is much more delicious than Helan Jinming's children. We will walk faster, and some families can't wait." As they said that, everyone accelerated their horse speed and headed to Zhenyuan quickly.

Nan Jiyun took more than 20 soldiers and whipped their horses quickly, and finally arrived in Zhenyuan. Zhenyuan's guard Li Ben was much more enthusiastic than Helan Jinming. He immediately ordered people to cook. Nan Jiyun and these soldiers finally had food. However, when they thought of Zhang Xun in the city, Xu Yuan and the soldiers and the people in the city were hungry, they couldn't swallow it. They barely filled up some of their stomachs and asked Li Ben to send reinforcements.

Li Ben looked embarrassed and stood up and took Nan Jiyun to the tent. He looked at the sparse soldiers and said, "Li also admired the loyal and fierce behavior of Lord Zhongcheng and Prefect Xu. However, General Nan also saw that I only have so many Zhenyuan defenders and I am still struggling to defend the city. How can I send reinforcements?"

What Li Ben said is also true. He is not as timid as Helan Jinming, but Zhenyuan did not have the strength to send reinforcements. Nan Jiyun had nothing to say about this, so he had to thank him, "Thank you for the hospitality of General Li. In this way, Nan should set off to Ningling immediately. I hope General Lian Tan still has the spare time to support Sui Yang."

"Since General Nan is here, Li can't let you go for a waste." Li Ben gritted his teeth and took out the things he had been in the box. "Li still has more than a hundred good horses in his hand. Now that he can't use cavalry to defend the city, General Nan will take them along the way. Even if he can't go out to kill the enemy, it's always good to kill them all for Lord Zhongcheng and the soldiers to fill their stomachs with a little."

All the warriors of the Tang Dynasty loved horses as their lives. Now Li Ben was willing to give up his love for horses, which moved Nan Jiyun. It was not a humble moment. He bowed deeply to Li Ben to thank him. He immediately took the horses and continued to take his subordinates to Ningling to ask Lian Tan for help. If there were no reinforcements there, then the fall of Sui Yang would be only in the evening.

When he arrived at Ningling, Lian Tan and Li Ben were as enthusiastic as Li Ben, but Ningling's troops were also insufficient. Lian Tan spent all his time and only drew 3,000 elderly, weak, sick and disabled people to hand them to Nan Jiyun. "President Nan, don't blame me. Now Lian can only take out so many soldiers."

"If Nan survived after this battle, he would definitely come to thank him." Nan Jiyun also saw Lian Tan's situation. Now, except for Linhuai where Helan Jinming is located, there are all difficulties. Lian Tan's ability to use up so many troops is exhausted, but it is not enough for these people alone. Nan Jiyun asked with a hope of intent, "Do you dare to ask General Lian is still in excess of food and grass in the camp? Now that the food in Suiyang City has been out of food for more than a month, I'm afraid you can only eat human flesh if you go down."

"There is no food or grass in Lian's camp." Lian Tan shook his head slowly, and finally gritted his teeth, "Forget it, there are more than a hundred stones of food in a certain family's account, so I'll give half of it to General Nan. Ningling's current situation is much better than Suiyang after all."

"Thank you, General Lian." Nan Jiyun was grateful and immediately bowed to Lian Tan. With this food, the army could last for a few days if it was used. But these were not enough. Nan Jiyun continued to ask with a red face, "General Lian, do you have arrows and weapons? Can you give them some of them too?"

Even though Lian Tan plundered Ningling City, he still couldn't get much stuff. In the end, Nan Jiyun could only embark on the journey back to Suiyang with three thousand old, weak, sick and disabled, more than a hundred war horses, dozens of stones of grain and thousands of feather arrows. Looking at the thin and skinny soldiers who were not covered, he sighed in his heart, even if such soldiers could reach Suiyang, how many people would be left when they broke through and re-encircled into the city? I'm afraid that one thousand people would be left. How much could this play in defending Suiyang?

Forget it, Nan was born in a cold place, and today he was promoted by Lord Zhongcheng. This time, he would take these people back to Suiyang and die together with Lord Zhongcheng, Prefect Xu, General Lei and others. Thinking of going to Dingwusheng Road, Nan Jiyun put down his burden, but since this, he probably won’t have the chance to seek revenge on Helan Jinming. It’s really a pity.

The army set out from Ningling and arrived outside Suiyang City at sunset. Nan Jiyun ordered a camp to camp for a night of rest, and wait until the enemy's most carelessness is the time tomorrow morning when the enemy is most careless, and then break through the siege and enter Suiyang City. After camping with the soldiers, they patrol around again. Only then did Nan Jiyun enter the tent and put on a dress and sleep.

In the middle of the moon, everyone except the night-time sailor fell asleep. No one noticed that there was a sudden white light coming out of Nan Jiyun's tent.

"This time the host will possess Nan Jiyun, and the time is when Nan Jiyun leads reinforcements back to Suiyang City! The host's mission this time is to help Zhang Xun, Xu Yuan guards Suiyang City and destroys the rebels led by Yin Ziqi. The mission time is three months." The voice of the tiger talisman awakened Li You from his dream.

Hiss~ When Li You woke up, he first held his left hand. The cut-off tail finger still emitted a burst of pain, and then his stomach started to growl again, but all this was nothing compared to his mission this time.

This is the battle of Suiyang! The most tragic war since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Looking at the 5,000 years of China, there are countless cases of wars trapped in the lonely city. However, whether it is Lu Wenhuan, who guarded Xiangyang alone, or Wang Jian and Zhang Jue who guarded Diaoyu City and killed Mongolian Khan Mengge, the situation they faced was probably not as cruel as Zhang Xun. If they had to find one, it would be possible that only Yan Yingyuan, a later generation, could compare with it.

This mission was really difficult, and Li You fell into deep thought.
