Chapter 72 The situation in the capital
night!
"I will report to Your Majesty that the army will arrive outside the capital at noon tomorrow."
In the Han army camp and in the central army's tent, Li Xiaoyao sat in the main seat, listening to Ye Chen's report.
He raised his head and looked at Ye Chen and said, "What's going on in the capital now?"
"Go back to your Majesty, with Guo Da's cooperation, Ye Hongyuan took back the command of the 100,000 Hengcheng border troops. Now the 100,000 Hengcheng border troops have also entered the capital to set up defenses. However, they were fled by the Qin and Han people. He led thousands of troops to escape to the coast of Qinglin."
"Hmm? The direction along the coast of Qinglin?" Li Xiaoyao frowned slightly and said, "Isn't that the father-in-law of Qin Hanmin and Xia Wushan's hometown located?"
"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager Lu..." Ye Chen's eyes dodged and hesitated.
Li Xiaoyao glanced at him and said, "You are not trying to tell me that Empress Dowager Lu, the old witch, has also escaped?"
"Return to Your Majesty, according to the news sent by Guo Da, it was Lin Wei and Lin Ru who took the Empress as a hostage, so he did not dare..."
Hearing this, Li Xiaoyao slapped the table and said, "It's them again."
His anger shocked the soldier standing behind him.
The soldier looked fair-faced, lowered his head slightly, and was wearing black armor, looking very loose. His clothes were several sizes larger than his body.
"Where did they escape with Empress Dowager Lu?" Li Xiaoyao glanced at Ye Chen.
"Go back to your Majesty and go to the coast of Qinglin." Ye Chen glanced at the soldier standing behind Li Xiaoyao.
"Hmph! It seems that Empress Dowager Lu has long been in contact with Qin and Hanmin." Li Xiaoyao narrowed his eyes and said, "Was Lin Zhiqing now in the palace, or did he escape with Empress Dowager Lu?"
"Your Majesty, the Empress is still in the palace." Ye Chen replied.
"Ha!" Li Xiaoyao chuckled, "She is quite brave. After helping Empress Dowager Lu, she didn't escape?"
"Your Majesty means that the Empress is secretly helping Empress Lu contact the people of Qin and Han?" Ye Chen frowned slightly.
"Besides her, who else can escape Guo Da's surveillance?" Li Xiaoyao said coldly, then he raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's the situation with the Zhao army?"
"When you go back to your Majesty, they attacked for two consecutive days and did not gain any advantage. Ye Hongyuan's 100,000 Hengcheng border troops also suffered some losses."
"Yeah!" Li Xiaoyao nodded and said, "The 25,000 black-armored soldiers in the capital are all cavalry. They really cannot play their advantages to defending the city. Ye Hongyuan asked the border troops of 100,000 Hengcheng to guard the city and arrange them in the rear, because this should be considered."
Immediately, Li Xiaoyao looked up and said, "You will immediately send someone to sneak into the capital and tell Ye Hongyuan and Guo Da that tomorrow afternoon, headed by the Black Cavalry, break out of the city from the front, cooperate with my 280,000 army to give Zhao's army a front and back attack."
"Your Majesty wants to have a head-on battle with Zhao Jun?" Ye Chen said with a grin.
"Yeah!" Li Xiaoyao nodded and said, "The Zhao army is not like the Chu army. If you fight the Zhao army, you have to fight head-on with them. Only by defeating them and being afraid of them, will they not dare to underestimate our Han country in the future."
"That's right, the State of Zhao has never taken our Han country seriously because of their vast territory and strong military strength. This time, we will let them see and see our true strength." Ye Chen's mouth raised slightly and he said contemptuously.
"This time, you have to completely defeat them. If you are afraid of them, you will be hurt." Li Xiaoyao said coldly: "The secret guards just came to report that the King of Chu is now recruiting strong men and expanding his army in the Chu State. I guess they want to wait until both of us and Zhao's army are in the defeat and then give us a fatal blow."
"Your Majesty, it seems that the King of Chu is still terrified!" Ye Chen smiled slightly, as if he didn't take the Chu army seriously at all.
"The army just recruited is vulnerable. Chu State is not worth mentioning now. As long as you can lead the army to defeat the Zhao army, then, next, whether it is Chu State or Zhao State, they will be afraid of our Han State. At that time..." Li Xiaoyao said with a cold look: "I want to take back everything that Han State has lost."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. The combat power of the Black Armor Army is undoubtedly. Just wait for the news to come!" Ye Chen said seriously.
"Okay! I'm waiting for your triumphant return." Li Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Then I will take my leave first." Ye Chen said.
"Yeah!" Li Xiaoyao nodded. After Ye Chen left the tent, he stood up and began to take off the golden armor on his body.
The soldier behind him walked forward with his head down and helped him take off his armor behind him.
The soldiers hung their armor on the shelf beside them, and then stood there nervously.
"You go back first! I'm going to bed." Li Xiaoyao stretched and said while yawning, then turned around and walked towards the bedroom in the tent on the left.
The soldier was stunned for a while, and then followed Li Xiaoyao with some awkwardness.
Li Xiaoyao, who entered the bedroom, took off his coat.
"Why haven't you been out yet?" As soon as he lay on the bed, he was startled by the soldiers who followed in quietly.
Suddenly, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly. Seeing that the soldiers in front of him looked familiar, he immediately said, "Rise your head."
The soldier's face was fair and slightly rosy, and slowly raised his head.
"Liu Yifei?" Li Xiaoyao exclaimed: "Why are you here?"
"I……"
Looking at her loose clothes, she looked a little guilty and pretty.
Li Xiaoyao curled his lips. Liu Yifei could enter the army and must have nothing to do with Lin Xiao. Then, he got up and walked off the big bed. While reaching out to help her tie up her long cuffs, he said, "Is it Lin Xiao's idea?"
"Yeah." Liu Yifei looked cute and said with some blame: "It's not because of you, who told you not to take me with me this time, so I can only ask Lin Xiao to help me."
Li Xiaoyao shook his head.
"Forget it, for Lin Xiao is seriously injured in order to save me, I will not punish him." Li Xiaoyao glanced at her in anger.
Then, she pulled her to the edge of the bed, Li Xiaoyao supported her hands on both sides, looked down at her and asked, "Who did you come here, then Qingfeng Pavilion give?"
Liu Yifei raised her head, looked at Li Xiaoyao at close range, pouted her mouth and said, "Qingfeng Pavilion, Qing'er can take care of it, and now Sisi has taken over the Xuancheng Secret Guard, so I am just an idle person now, I will go wherever you go!"
Li Xiaoyao curled the corner of her mouth slightly and gently touched her red lips.
"You are a fairy."
After this sudden kiss, Liu Yifei's pretty face turned red instantly, she was a little shy, and her appearance became more charming.
Li Xiaoyao stood up and said, "How has Lin Xiao recovered from his injuries?"
"Huh?" I thought he would... for a moment, Liu Yifei came back to his senses and said, "He recovered very quickly. With Qing'er taking care of him, I believe he will be cured in no time."
Li Xiaoyao sat on the chair beside him, turned his head and continued, "Do you think Lin Xiao and Qing'er have some meaning?"
