Li Xiao took his soldiers and horses and stayed in Peifeng for one more day.
Attack sometimes and not attack sometimes.
If you say attack, attack, if you say retreat, retreat.
It seemed like everything was happy for Li Xiao alone.
Now, the soldiers and horses have retreated again.
The army was well-trained and orderly. The wounded were walking at the front, some were being supported and some were being carried on stretchers.
At the same time, more than thirty people carried the body to bury it.
The total number of corpses was small, less than ten, which was within the acceptable range.
Mr. Cai He has been on the road for many days, and now he is catching up on his sleep in the big tent.
Qian Yuandeng and Mu Tingyu were also in their respective tents. These days, they either went to see each other or stayed in the tent, not wanting to meet or have any contact with Li Xiao.
The guards who came back from Dongqing Lake hurried towards the company camp here.
The scene was serious, so he didn't yell. He ran closer and then asked others where Mr. Cai He's tent was.
Mu Tingyu was lying bored, tired of reading the book in his hand, and had his head covered over his face.
The four words "Mr. Cai He" were instantly caught by his ears.
Mu Tingyu took the book off his face and sat up.
The attendants waiting on the side were startled by him and whispered: "Prince?"
"Then the old man is back?" Mu Tingyu said.
The attendant thought for a moment: "Your Majesty, you mean Mr. Cai He?"
"Shh!" Mu Tingyu raised his hand, then got off the camp bed, walked to the camp tent, and listened.
Cai He was sleeping when he was woken up from his dream. When he heard that the guards came back to report, Cai He's eyes widened: "This happened, he really went there!?"
"Yes, I went, and I brought about ten people with me!"
There are about ten people who can say more or less.
Cai He frowned: "So, he is actually interested in the business I proposed. Otherwise, he would not go and see it in person."
"But..." Konoe couldn't say what happened when he kicked Yang Fugui into the lake.
"But what?"
"But that girl!"
Konwei's heart skipped a beat, and he directly said Yang Fugui's words and threats.
Mr. Cai He's ears were like thunder, and all the bones in his body were falling apart, and he fell back.
"Mr. Cai He!" The guard and the two attendants waiting on the side hurriedly supported him.
In fact, he was half-lying on the camp bed. If he fell, he would just fall on the quilt.
But his expression was really scary.
"This girl is not someone else," Mr. Cai He murmured, "it's actually her!"
"Who is it?" Konoe asked.
"Ah Li," Cai He closed his eyes, cold sweat broke out on his head, "That Ah Li!"
When they were stopped by her on the trail in the forest, they had trouble sleeping and eating. Later, they destroyed all evidence and created false evidence that they had somewhere else to go before they let go again.
But what surprised them was that the girl never mentioned the incident again.
In the past few years, I have met again here in Peifeng. How can I bear to bring up old things again?
Konoe thought for a while before he realized who Cai He was referring to as "Ali", and he was immediately shocked.
"What should we do now?" Konoe asked, "The master is still there! It's impossible to invite him here!"
Cai He thought for a while, then stood up immediately and asked his entourage to help him get dressed.
No matter what, you have to go over and comfort Master Zhi first, and take him away from Dongqing Lake as soon as possible.
Peifeng will definitely not be able to return here, so he can only go to Liujing Mansion first.
With his entourage waiting on him, Cai He arranged his clothes and combed his hair as quickly as possible. As soon as he left the camp, he saw Li Xiao striding towards him.
"Master!" Cai He hurriedly stepped forward, got close to Li Xiao and whispered what happened.
Li Xiao was stunned: "She?!"
"Yes, but Master Zhi is here now, so I have to go quickly."
"No," Li Xiao said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to go like this. You can take three hundred troops with you."
"That's not necessary, she only has three people."
"That's one hundred." Li Xiao said.
Cai He sighed lightly and had no choice but to nod: "But you can only follow from a distance and not get close. After all, Zhi Ye..."
"good."
Mu Tingyu was squatting in the tent.
What Cai He said next to Li Xiao, his voice was too low for him to hear clearly, but he heard the subsequent conversation clearly.
Mu Tingyu was really curious about Li Xiao's "him", who could make Li Xiao's dead face so surprised.
And that "Zhi Ye" must be related to Cai He's departure some time ago.
Now, if Cai He wants to go back to Dongqing Lake to meet this "Zhi Ye", who will he be?
Li Xiao turned around and dispatched a hundred elite soldiers, the guards went to prepare the carriage, and Mr. Cai He was ready to set off.
Mu Tingyu followed their movements and ran to the other side of the tent, pressing his ears tightly against them.
It's so noisy outside that it's hard to hear anything.
Mu Tingyu gave up and returned to the camp bed.
The more I thought about it, the more curious I became and wanted to find out all of this immediately.
Mu Tingyu couldn't sit still, so he got up and walked back and forth in the tent.
Judging from Li Xiao's performance in the past two days, there are strong plans to stay here for a while.
There were casualties every day, although not many, but Mu Tingyu's heart was bleeding.
Mu Tingyu had long thought that these soldiers and horses were not Li Xiao's soldiers, and would sooner or later belong to Daqian.
One is dead and one is missing, one is injured and one is disabled, it is all a loss.
Moreover, attacking Peifeng and making such a big noise, isn't Li Xiao really afraid of attracting the attention of Jiao Jinhu from the north?
If Jiao Jinhu goes south now, it's hard to say what will happen to Li Xiao's less than 10,000 troops, even if they are elite soldiers.
This Li Xiao!
After thinking about it, Mu Tingyu turned around and left the tent, looking for Qian Yuandeng, intending to pour a few more basins of oil on Qian Yuandeng's burning fire.
While Mu Tingyu reached out to push Qian Yuandeng, a rough big palm was placed on Yang Fugui's arm and pushed hard several times.
Yang Fugui opened his eyes in a daze, and Li Man's face was reflected in the firelight.
"Li Man!" Yang Fugui was overjoyed and stood up and shouted, "You're back!"
Seeing two people standing behind Li Man, Yang Fugui hurriedly got up.
"Miss Ah Li!" Yang Fugui shouted.
His eyes turned to the tall man next to Xia Zhaoyi. He was a handsome man with dark skin. He was dressed in a sharp military uniform and looked like a warrior.
Yang Fugui was stunned for a moment: "This, this person is."
"This is General Song." Li Man said.
"General?!" Yang Fugui was surprised, "It's actually General..."
"I've seen it before." Song Qingtang raised his hand and gave him a fist.
"I've seen the general, I've seen the general!" Yang Fugui imitated him and hurriedly clasped his fists.
"Why are you sleeping here?" Li Man asked, "Why are your clothes half wet?"
Yang Fugui sniffed, looked at Xia Zhaoyi, and hurriedly recounted what happened after she left.
However, he is not good at eloquence and is not good at organizing things, so his words are a bit messy.
"Master Zhi?" Xia Zhaoyi said, remembering Mr. Cai He's reaction when she heard that she called herself a Zhi girl, she raised her eyebrows lightly, "Isn't it possible that she is also an expenditure branch?"
