What's more, the huge Beizhen has had no harvest for a whole year, and it has to feed nearly 200,000 soldiers. The food loss alone is an astronomical figure.

Yuan Yi has already begun to have a headache. Even if Rouran retreats, how will the people of the six towns who have been plundered by him survive this cold winter?

There were almost hundreds of memorials sent to the court asking for food, but they all fell into the sea without any response. Yuan Yi couldn't figure it out, could it be that the Queen Mother and all the princes in the court were all blind?

Yuan Yi was very angry and anxious, but Gao Zhao was hesitant.

He strongly agreed with what Li Chengzhi often said: Even if the meat is rotten, at least it is still in the pot.

Therefore, even if it is a rebellion, we must get rid of Rouran, a scourge in his inner circle, and drive him out as hard as possible.

Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will be making wedding clothes for others.

So at this time, he was in doubt about his move. Should he raise his troops to press forward as Cui Yanbo said?

Finding out what is true is only second, but to help Commander Xui make up his mind and withdraw his troops as soon as possible.

Rouran can't afford it, and the imperial court can't afford it.

But Gao Zhao didn't want to get stuck in the quagmire, and even wanted to retreat.

You, Li Chengzhi, can "see the flowers blooming and falling in front of the court, and look at the clouds rolling and relaxing in the sky." Why can't I, Gao Zhao?

Let's see who can't sit still first...

While he was thinking secretly, he suddenly heard the sound of shouting. Gao Zhao glanced closely and saw several horses running from the west, holding up the flag and ordering the soldiers along the way to give way.

Leaning slightly, Lai rode ten feet away and was stopped by the guards. After a brief interrogation, he was brought to the watchtower.

"Commander, the scouts reported urgently. They said that about half an hour ago, the west wind gradually stopped, but the enemy camp was still full of sand and dust, and the enemy's scouts were very few. Knowing something was wrong, the scouts came closer to peep, and found that the enemy camp was already there. It’s empty. It’s nothing more than hundreds of horses being stabbed with steel needles near their tails. They were in pain and couldn’t run away..."

Yuan Yi frowned with joy and laughed loudly: "Haha, Rouran retreated?"

"That should be the case. Governor Yuan has ordered all the scouts to go west to explore. I think they will know the truth later..."

Gao Zhao frowned: "Send an order to Yuan Yuan, telling him not to be careless, let alone pursue without authorization, so as not to fall into the creepy bandit's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"

This was the case last time. Rouran used a little trick and Yuan Yuan jumped in. If he hadn't underestimated the enemy, why would the 20,000 townspeople in Huaishuo and Wuchuan be buried in a sea of ​​fire?

Gao Zhao couldn't help but think of Li Chengzhi.

Both of them were talented at the time. If you didn't compare them, you wouldn't be able to tell their superiority. However, after this battle, they are completely different.

It's a pity that Li Chengzhi doesn't have enough oil and salt...

Sighing secretly, Gao Zhao loudly ordered again: "I hope you will not slack off and do your duty..."

"No!"

They all responded in unison, and the generals dispersed one after another.
