Li Li hummed lightly, but then she thought of something else and asked, "What if Northern Qi sends troops to help Liu Li? Wouldn't it be even more difficult for us to break through?"
"I'm not worried about this, because this is definitely not the best option for Northern Qi. Moreover, even if Northern Qi chooses this, it will send troops to assist Liu Li at the border when he loses the last city."
"Of course, we cannot rule out this possibility. I don't want it to be like this, but if it is true, we will take advantage of the situation to recapture Yanjing and then strengthen the border defense line."
"As for Liu Li, it's fine to let him escape to Northern Qi!"
"But, you are not worried at all. This will make Northern Qi even more powerful."
Faced with Li Lizhi's questioning, Xing Bang was not surprised at all, because she had not fully understood her ultimate intention.
Xing Bang laughed: "Princess, if I can't completely solve your doubts, will you keep pestering me?"
"Of course, so stop keeping me in suspense and tell me what's going on!"
Li Lizhi smiled sweetly, her curiosity was aroused. How could she not be satisfied?
Xing Bang chuckled: "But, after talking for so long, my mouth is dry..."
“This is easy!”
As she spoke, Li Lizhi quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it over.
However, Xing Bang pretended to be serious and did not move.
Li Lizhi frowned and pouted, "Why, you're not still thinking about letting me feed you, are you?"
I say that, but I’ve already accepted it in my heart. As long as you’re happy, there’s no problem at all.
Xing Bang nodded and smiled: "Princess, you are humbly asking for my advice, isn't that right?"
Li Lizhi smiled: "Yes, yes!"
"Okay, can't I feed you?"
As she spoke, Li Lizhi handed the tea bowl to Xing Bang's mouth.
However, Xing Bang did not open his mouth, but continued to shake his head with a smile without saying a word.
After all this effort, this is all?
joke!
"Um?"
Li Lizhi understood immediately and couldn't help but give Xing Bang a blank look.
Actually, it’s not a big problem!
"You are such a bad guy. You really know when to ask for help."
"Okay, this princess promises you!"
As she spoke, Li Lizhi brought over the tea bowl and prepared to drink.
"etc!"
Xing Bang was suddenly stopped again.
"What happened again?"
Li Lizhi was a little puzzled, thinking to herself, what else can be done in this situation?
Xing Bang smiled and said, "Princess, how about this? I'll do it myself now, and you can just owe me the money first and pay me back later."
"Ah!"
"Humph, you're teasing me again. No, you're not allowed to cheat. I want you now, and what's more..."
"Hmm? Besides what?"
"Oh, you're really annoying!"
Li Lizhi blushed and stomped her feet subconsciously.
Xing Bang laughed, how could he not understand what he wanted to say?
"Well, then, it's up to you."
No matter how stubborn you are, you are still a fool. It is an extra reward anyway...
Then, Li Lizhi didn't hesitate any longer, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.
Then…
After drinking a cup of tea, Xing Bang nodded contentedly, "Thank you, Princess, for the reward!"
"Then I, a young man, will continue to help the princess solve her puzzles."
Hearing this.
Li Lizhi curled her lips, what a guy who got the advantage but still acts ungratefully.
"Let me make it clear first. You are not allowed to cheat. If you make me unhappy, then wait and see how I will deal with you!"
Xing Bang laughed and said, "Just listen to it. After all, who is afraid of who?"
However, he didn't keep it a secret any longer. If he didn't explain it clearly, she would really lose her temper...
"Let's look at it from another angle. It is certain that Liu Li will not submit to the imperial court. If he does not surrender to Northern Qi, he will risk everything with us."
"Even if we use a trick to defeat the enemy without fighting, Liu Li will surrender and we can recapture Yanjing City, but the remaining soldiers will be a problem again."
"It is inevitable that there will be many who are loyal to Liu Li, or who do not trust the court and are wavering."
"Even if they are treated well, they may just be obedient on the surface. If they are not satisfied, trouble may arise."
"Whether they are sincere or forced to do so, they are the ones who intend to rebel. Moreover, they have followed Liu Li for so many years. They are different from Xiong Kuohai and others. They are not easy to tame at all!"
Li Lizhi nodded, "That's true. Even if these people don't cause trouble, they won't be able to do anything important for a while. Plus, they're afraid and might rebel against the court again if something goes wrong."
"To put it bluntly, I just don't like these soldiers, but I can't kill them all. If I keep them, I have to support them and have someone monitor them."
"Invisibly, this is a burden. It costs more money and food, and you may end up raising ungrateful people."
Although it was Xing Bang's first time to lead troops into battle, he understood the lessons from history very well.
Li Lizhi nodded. After hearing this, she completely understood.
"No wonder you have been so calm. So this is your plan."
"In the final analysis, you are eager for Liu Li to lead his army to surrender to Northern Qi!"
Xing Bang laughed: "Yes, I have been hoping Liu Li would do this for a long time. Even if I were to meet him, it would only make him feel more threatened. I never thought of luring him to surrender. This first battle was also to make him more afraid."
Hearing this, Li Lizhi blinked her beautiful eyes and thought, seeming to still have some doubts.
