"I thank the general on behalf of these soldiers."
He originally thought that Li Xiuzhu could only give them one or two percent at most to share with them.
All my previous bosses were like this.
Li Xiuzhu waved his hand indifferently.
"I'll make it clear to everyone later that I, Li Xiuzhu, am not the kind of person who wants the horse to run without giving it grass to eat."
"First the brothers', then mine."
Li Wuwei spoke again.
"The general is righteous."
"Okay, I don't know how to fight, so I'll leave this to you."
"I'll come back tonight."
Li Wuwei immediately said, "General, go and rest. I will not let the Silla people climb the city wall."
Li Xiuzhu had nothing to worry about. Even if the Silla people broke into the city, he could retreat calmly.
Anyway, he had lifted the siege of Shanhaiguan, and there was nothing else he could do except come up with some strategies.
Even if the Silla people really captured Juyongguan, they would not be able to threaten Shanhaiguan again.
What's more, they have an army heading north.
At the same time, after a long journey of three hours, Xi Honglei entered Yanmen Pass.
Although Yanmen Pass was in wartime, the south gate was not closed, but the entry into the city was much stricter.
Of course, where there is money there is reason, not to mention that Xi Honglei looks like a weak and delicate girl, so she is naturally not within the scope of management.
As for her subordinates, they also tried to break up into smaller groups and sneak in.
"Ma'am, what shall we do now?"
"Rent a big house, send someone to get some information, and then wait."
As Xi Honglei finished speaking, a team of thousands of people started to move.
Although Xi Honglei was worried about Qi Shaoshang's safety, there was nothing she could do and she had to take it one step at a time.
As the sun set, the people who went to Lianyunzhai to investigate came back.
"Boss, Lianyun Village is surrounded by soldiers, but I don't quite understand why. I saw people from the village go down the mountain to buy supplies, and the soldiers will take them to buy."
Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in Xihong's tearful eyes.
"Okay, go down."
After everyone went down, she looked at Qin Wanqing.
"Sanniang, it seems that Qi Shaoshang and his men are indeed in this city. However, with so many people in Lianyun Village, why didn't our people see them today?"
"Besides, the city's garrison is only about 40,000 men, and it doesn't look like there will be any reinforcements."
Qin Wanqing sorted out the information and said, "The people below investigated and found that a large group of black-armored soldiers came to Yanmen Pass, at least tens of thousands of them."
"Right now, these black-armored soldiers are in the south of the city, but judging by their distribution and the extent of their actions today, there are probably only a few thousand of them, definitely not tens of thousands."
"So I guess these people and Qi Shaoshang may have already left the city."
"As for where exactly it went, it is still unknown."
Xi Honglei frowned slightly when she heard this.
"It seems that I have no choice but to go and meet those people."
"I'll go with you, sis."
Xi Honglei immediately shook her head when she heard this.
"No, you stay here. If I can't get out, you can find a way to save me."
"If it is impossible, you can take your brothers back to Huinuo City."
Qin Wanqing paused when she heard this. Although her emotion made her want to accompany Xi Honglei, her reason told her that this was the best choice.
Finally, Qin Wanqing nodded.
At this time, a maid came forward and whispered, "Madam, the house has been rented. It is in the Lu Mansion, about 700 meters north of the city."
"Yeah, I got it!"
After Xi Honglei finished speaking, she looked at Qin Wanqing and said softly, "The house has been bought. You go there first. If I don't go there tomorrow, you can come up with a solution later."
"Be careful, sis."
Xi Honglei smiled when she heard that.
"I have the ability to disguise myself. As long as I become an ugly woman, few people will want to embarrass me."
Just as the two were discussing, several black-armored soldiers and an officer suddenly walked into the restaurant entrance.
Pretending to glance at the black-armored soldier casually, Xi Honglei and the others remained expressionless, but they had already pricked up their ears.
"I don't know which one is Xi, but my general left a letter."
Xi Honglei paused. How could the other party be so sure that I would come at this time? And how did he find me?
Qin Wanqing looked at the other party who was sure that they were there, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat. It seemed that things were going to be bad.
Xi Honglei was not stupid. She knew she couldn't escape, so she stood up after hesitating for a moment.
"General, my name is Xi."
Sun Ci looked over when he heard that, and his eyes lit up slightly.
You have to know that Xi Honglei came in disguised as a rich lady and didn't have time to make herself ugly, so naturally she couldn't be too ugly.
"This is a letter left by our general."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Also, the general said that if Miss Xi decides to leave the city, she can come to me and I will let her get off the city wall."
"It's wartime now, and you can't run around."
"Otherwise, once discovered, the crossbow shooting will not be a joke."
Xi Honglei nodded when she heard this.
"Thank you for the reminder, General."
After Xi Honglei finished speaking, she opened the letter and found that just as they had analyzed, Li Xiuzhu took Qi Shaoshang and others out of the city.
Not only did he leave the city, he also went to attack Juyongguan.
At this moment, Xi Honglei frowned, and her pitiful temperament spread, making people want to hold her in their arms and love her dearly.
"General, can you come with me for a moment?"
Sun Ci was shocked and secretly frightened.
What a charming woman.
The outer charm is to charm people with beauty, the inner charm is to charm people with heart! "Good!"
The two entered the guest room on the second floor, and Xi Honglei asked, "The letter said that the general's lord went to attack Juyong Pass. I wonder if Juyong Pass can be taken?"
Sun Ci nodded upon hearing this.
"Yes, it has been taken."
Xi Honglei heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then asked nervously: "Then I wonder how the people in Lianyun Village are doing?"
Sun Ci shook his head when he heard this.
“We don’t know that either.”
"The general sent a scout to deliver a message after he captured Juyong Pass."
"But now Juyongguan is surrounded by another Silla army."
"I'm afraid it will be difficult to deliver news in a short period of time."
Upon hearing the news, Xi Honglei could no longer sit still.
"I wonder if the General can arrange for my men to leave the city tonight?"
Sun Ci shook his head immediately upon hearing this.
"Master Xi, the general ordered you to go out and I can take you out."
"This you is a person."
"You should know that the general wanted to destroy the people of Nuo City and came to Yanmen Pass to guard those noble families and prevent them from causing trouble."
Xi Honglei was silent for a moment after hearing this and then nodded.
"Okay, wait a moment, General."
Xi Honglei opened the door and shouted downstairs, "Third sister, come up."
Although Xi Honglei was shouting, her voice was still gentle, as if a soft wind had turned into a breeze, heavy but still gentle.
Before Qin Wanqing could speak after she came up, Xi Honglei said, "Third sister, you and the others stay at Yanmen Pass to help this general guard the nobles and don't let them make any unusual moves."
Xi Honglei looked at Sun Ci and continued, "Just guarding those nobles."
"If the city is breached, you can return to Huinuo City by yourselves."
There was no sign of abnormality on Sun Ci's face, even after hearing Xi Honglei's last words.
Qin Wanqing immediately thought of what Sun Ci had said downstairs, and asked seriously, "Sister, do you really have to go?"
