When Zhang Lang heard Yue Ying's words, he couldn't help but think of the cute girl who had lived with him for half a year and always blushed in front of him.

She couldn't help but frown, feeling that just for her sake, she would never let the Yan family and the Tong family suffer Yang Yi's murderous hands.

Thinking of something, he looked at Yueying and asked, "What is the current situation of the Tong family and the Yan family?"

Yue Ying said: "According to the news from the Dingxiang sisters, although they are all under house arrest, there is no problem with their safety for the time being. Then Yang Yi only used drugs to control them and put them under house arrest without further persecution.

But if Yang Yi is defeated and returns to Dingxiang, it’s hard to say what will happen next!”

Zhang Lang frowned and nodded, then said resolutely: "I have to go to Dingxiang first!" Then he raised his voice and said: "Come here!"

Meng Hai, who was guarding the door, came in immediately, clasped his fists and asked, "What are your orders, general?"

Zhang Lang said: "Immediately call all the generals to come to me!"

Meng Hai quickly agreed and ran down.

On the other side, Yang Yi led thousands of defeated soldiers to escape from Yanmen and fled straight towards Dingxiang. Along the way, there was a roar of wind, cranes, and vegetation, so they did not dare to stop and rest.

It only took less than two days for them to escape back to Dingxiang.

Thousands of officers and soldiers who stayed behind in Dingxiang suddenly saw that their lord had escaped back in such a mess, and the number of people who came back was no more than 10,000. Everyone was horrified beyond measure.

In the hall of the Prefect's Mansion, Yang Yi was sitting on the throne above. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, feeling that he had finally escaped.

Thinking of the Battle of Yanmen not long ago, he was still frightened and panicked. Zhang Lang's plan and the powerful combat power of the Yulin Army all frightened him, and he could not even think of fighting again.

.

The battle at Yanmen can be said to have completely destroyed his courage to face Zhang Lang.

At this moment, an officer suddenly stumbled in and reported urgently: "Lord Qi, no, it's not good. The 70,000-strong army led by King Youxian and others were also defeated in Yanmen.

!!...”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present showed a horrified look, and they were flustered and didn't know what to do.

Yang Yi looked pale and speechless. He originally expected that the Huns could defeat Zhang Lang and he could take the opportunity to turn defeat into victory. However, he did not expect that the Huns would be defeated again at the hands of Zhang Lang, which severely damaged Yang again.

There is only a little faith left in righteousness.

Cao Chuan couldn't help but said with a fearful expression: "Yuan bought him, he defeated the Huns cavalry, the next step, the next step will definitely be to use troops against our Dingxiang!..."

Everyone showed a look of fear. Yang Yi swallowed, glanced at everyone, and said hopefully: "You guys, do you have a way to deal with it?"

Everyone looked at each other and were speechless. Finally, Cao Chuan came out and clasped his fists and said: "My lord, the only solution for now is to immediately send someone to plead with Yuan Mai, and at the same time send someone to plead with the prime minister. Maybe, maybe we can

To resolve this crisis..."

When Yang Yi heard what Cao Chuan said, he felt very depressed. According to his personal wishes, he would not want to plead with Zhang Lang under any circumstances. However, if he could get to his current position, he was naturally not an impulsive and brainless young man.

Therefore, he did not object to Cao Chuan's proposal.

After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "Okay, that's it?"

Cao Chuan said quickly: "It is not something ordinary people can do to plead with Yuan Mai and the Prime Minister. In order to show sincerity, the lord not only needs to send his confidants, but also prepare a large number of gifts."

Yang Yi nodded, looked at Cao Chuan and said: "It's easy to talk about gifts, but the choice of the envoy...?

Cao Chuan quickly said: "My brother Cao Gang can go to Yuan Mai as an envoy, and I would like to go to Jizhou as an envoy to Yuan Shao!" Standing among the civil servants on the right, a civil servant who looked somewhat similar to Cao Chuan immediately

When he came out, he cupped his fists and bowed to Yang Yi: "I am willing to go!"

Yang Yi looked at the two brothers, with a look of relief in his eyes, and sighed: "If all the civil and military men under me can share my worries like you, I have nothing to worry about!"

Everyone present couldn't help but lower their heads after hearing this, and many people couldn't help but feel jealousy towards Brother Cao Chuan and Cao Gang.

Yang Yi said to Cao Chuan and Cao Gang: "Since you two are willing to share my worries, then I will leave this matter to you! This matter is of great importance, so remember not to travel!"

The two of them immediately made a vow, as if they would go through fire and water for Yang Yi.

After the meeting, Cao Chuan and Cao Gang hurried away to prepare for his mission.

Yang Yi paced back and forth in the hall. Although he had sent brothers Cao Chuan and Cao Gang to send envoys to Yuan Shao and Zhang Lang, he still couldn't settle down.

General Zhao Xiong standing nearby couldn't help but clasped his fists and said: "My lord, we can't place all our hopes on Cao Chuan and Cao Gang! If Yuan buys Yuan Shao and refuses to let it go, don't we have to sit back and wait for death?"

Yang Yi stopped, frowned and nodded. He looked at Zhao Xiong and asked, "What do you think?"

Zhao Xiong cupped his fists and said: "While we still have fifteen thousand troops in our hands, it is better to abandon Dingxiang and retreat to Wuyuan County. That is the territory of King Youxian. We will be safe for the time being if we retreat there."

Yang Yi showed his heartbeat and muttered: "This is a good way to retreat in order to advance. Now that King Youxian has suffered heavy losses, other Xiongnu princes will probably be eyeing him. He is in need of help.

If we go there at this time, we will definitely receive his warm reception.

As for Bingzhou, it is impossible for Yuan Mai to stay in Bingzhou forever. The Central Plains War has begun, and Yuan Mai and his main force will sooner or later leave Bingzhou and go to the Central Plains battlefield. At that time, our opportunity will come..."

Zhao Xiong cupped his fists and said, "My lord is wise! That's exactly what it is!"

Yang Yi suddenly frowned and murmured: "But, if this happens, wouldn't it mean that I have to give up Dingxiang, which I have been running for many years? Even if I can take back Dingxiang in the future, everything will have to start from scratch!!

…”

Zhao Xiong said quickly: "My lord, as long as we keep the army, everything we lose today can be regained in the future! But if we are trapped here, once Yuan Mai insists on attacking regardless of his feelings, what will happen if the nest is overturned?

All gone!"

Yang Yi's heart was shocked, but he still felt reluctant. He glanced at Zhao Xiong, waved his hand and said, "You don't have to say anymore. I want to think about it, think about it..."

At night, the whole of Dingxiang was quiet. There was a sense of tension and uneasiness in the air.

Yang Yi, dressed in casual clothes and supported by a group of strong men, walked into a heavily guarded courtyard, passed through several corridors, and walked into a bedroom.
