Lunzhi was a firm faction of the King of Yan. He has been following since Gongsun Yuan. He heard that the generals were unwilling to return to save Xiangping, and immediately opposed it loudly.

Yang Zuo hesitated and defended: "But the opportunity to miss the fighter to encircle Sima Yi is fleeting, and there is probably no such opportunity again in the future."

Bei Yan made up his mind: "It is better to lead 5,000 troops back to Xiangping to save the King of Yan, and leave 20,000 soldiers here to encircle and suppress the Wei army."

Lunzhi shook his head and said, "Five thousand soldiers returned to Xiangping, and I'm afraid they could only die in vain. I'm here to propose: All the troops will be returned and King Yan will be saved."

Everyone was caught in a quarrel again, and anyone who suggested that they stayed to encircle and suppress the Wei army was labeled as "having a strange intention" and "descending to the king".

Gongsun Xiu sighed in his heart, thinking that he would continue to fight, and the army mutiny day and night. After all, the people of Yan were still in their hearts, and it would take some time for him to replace him and inherit the throne.

He quickly advised: "Since that's the case, you don't have to fight. Yang Zuo and Bei Yan, I will order you and the two of you to lead an army of 20,000 to Xiangping immediately. I will leave 5,000 people here to fight Sima Yi."

Once this statement was made, Yang Zuo, Bei Yan and Lunzhi all said it was not possible.

Lunzhi said first: "Your Highness, if you leave five thousand people here, you will inevitably be able to fight against us. When Sima Yi saw that the prince had few soldiers, he might immediately open the city to fight. With only five thousand people, how can he fight against his tens of thousands of soldiers?"

Yang Zuo continued: "Why not divide the troops into two places?"

Gongsun Xiu thought to continue to discuss this, and both sides had their lives. He shook his head and said, "It is even more undesirable to divide the troops in two places. It is better to cut off one of the fingers than to hurt his ten fingers. You lead 20,000 Yan troops back to help the King of Yan, Goguryeo, Xianbei, weak countries and few people, have no combat power, but there are many people and many people. You lead the army to Xiangping to defeat the bandit army and talk about it. Let me stay with you against Sima Yi. Even if you lose, it will not be too late to withdraw."

Yang Zuo and others were frightened and expressed concern about Gongsun Xiu's safety, but there was no time to be pretentious at the moment, so they had to accept the order.

Joining the army was hesitant and suddenly said, "I have a plan that can help the prince to rescue him. But this plan is used, which will inevitably arouse people's hatred."

Gongsun Xiudao: "What is the strategy?"

Lun straightened his beard and said, "If the prince can't stop Sima Yi, it's better to pretend to be defeated and lead Sima Yi to attack the rear of the Wu Navy brigade..."

Gongsun Xiu suddenly realized: "This plan is good. If Sima Yi saw that I had only 5,000 soldiers, he would pursue me as a victory. After being led to Liaokou, he would definitely fight with Zhuge Jin and his son of Eastern Wu."

Lunzhi smiled bitterly and said, "What a pity. Wu did not spare any effort to rescue him for thousands of miles, but he used this method and had no moral integrity, which would make the world laugh."

Gongsun Xiu laughed and said, "No, you have woken me up. In troubled times, we don't talk about benevolence and righteousness, but only about strength and weakness. Wu did not send troops to Liaodong with benevolence and righteousness. If our Yan State and Wu State worked together to destroy Sima Yi and the entire Liaodong eliminated the opponents in the open, Wu State would also regard Yan State as an opponent, and plundered or destroyed the country. It would be better to lead Wei and Wu to slaughter each other, and we would reap the benefits of the fisherman."

Lun straightened his beard and nodded, saying, "This is true."

That night, the Yan army withdrew 20,000 troops and rushed to Xiangping for rescue.

The Yan army under Liaotung City immediately lost four-fifths.

Hu Zun patrolled day and night and was exhausted by the besiege. The city's food and grass could only last for three days. Any grain of rice that fell into the bricks in the granary was dug out, which was useless.

In another three days, the whole army would have no food and live on an empty stomach.

Sima Yi distributed grain with Xiaohu for five days. The soldiers of the entire army fought against the Yan army without food. The weak-body soldiers looked at Venus and fell to the side and couldn't move. They were hungry and tired.

Hu Zun sighed deeply and had the urge to die. After all, the siege of Liao Tunnel was also caused by him. He failed to check the inventory of food and grass in the city in time and it has become today.

I don’t know if it was dazzled, but Hu Zun saw that most of the Yan army under the city had quietly retreated, leaving only the poor thousands of soldiers.

Hu Zun subconsciously rubbed his eyes, grabbed a guard beside him, and asked, "The Yan army under the city... seems to have retreated? Is it?"

The guard was confused and nodded, "Yes, General, more than half of the Yan army withdrew."

Hu Zun was stunned for about seven or eight minutes, then suddenly ran downstairs, rushed all the way to Sima Yi's residence, and fell to the ground, and was surprised: "Taiwei, Taiwei! Yan... Yan's army has withdrawn!"

Sima Yi had already fallen asleep and was sleeping soundly. Suddenly he heard noises coming from outside. He opened his eyes and went out wearing clothes: "What's wrong? You won't stop for a while when you're so late?"

Hu Zunxi said: "Taiwei, a great joy, the Yan army withdrew its troops, and there are only thousands of soldiers and horses left in the south of the city."

Sima Yi immediately lost all sleepiness, his eyes shone, and he stroked his beard and smiled: "It seems that the plan to surround Wei and save Zhao Zhishou will work. Yan army must have returned to save Xiangping."

He slammed the door and closed it.

Hu Zun was stunned, scratching his head, and almost blinking his eyes, he saw the Taiwei open the door again, his armor was already prepared, and he walked out with great strides, sneering: "Get out of the city immediately, and you can't stay for a moment."

It’s a god-killing thing, the Taiwei’s change of clothes is too fast, right?

Hu Zun quickly followed Sima Yi's footsteps and said, "Will you leave the city while you are at night?"

"certainly."

Sima Yi showed joy on his face, and the feeling of siege was like a bird in a cage, screaming that the sky was not responding, and the earth was not effective. At this moment, the Yan army did not care about siege and returned to save Gongsun Yuan.

Now that we don’t break through and leave the city, we will be dead.

Hu Zun immediately woke up the soldiers in the city and brought all the dry food they could carry. More than 13,000 people were holding torches, as bright as daytime.

Gongsun Xiu led 5,000 cavalry to guard the south wall. When he saw the Liao Tunnel city gate open, Hu Zun rode his horse out, pointed a long spear at him, and sneered: "Boy, are you the only one left to cut off the back here?"

Sima Yi flashed out of the city, looked around and saw that there were no ambush everywhere, and sneered: "You don't go to remove Gongsun Yuan's siege, but stay here. It's really a great unfilial piety."

When Gongsun Xiu heard this, he knew that he could lure Goguryeo. The two foreign tribes of Xianbei attacked Xiangping by Sima Yi. He couldn't help but applaud and praised him, saying, "Sima, your strategy of surrounding Wei to save Zhao is really good. You must save the enemy. I should have captured and killed you, but I didn't expect to miss the opportunity."

Sima Yi was in a very good mood. Since entering Liaodong, he had suffered repeated setbacks and was led by Gongsun Xiu. It was even more difficult than fighting against Shu. This time, he finally saved his face by surrounding Wei and saving Zhao. He smiled and said, "You can also continue to surround him, regardless of Gongsun Yuan's life and death. The result is that you become the King of Yan."

Gongsun Xiu thought to himself that if I really did this, the Yan army was disunited, what would be the use of becoming the King of Yan? He smiled and said, "My father and son have deep feelings and friendship, which is not what you can think of. Sima's old man judges others by himself and thinks he is self-righteous."

Sima Yi could see that he was also a mean and polite person. The two had indescribable similarities, but they were mortal enemies. Either you die or I live, and they felt like they were both enemies and friends. He shook his head and laughed: "Gongsun Xiu, I know what you think in your heart."

"I know you very well, Sima Yi."

Gongsun Xiu sneered, then raised his hand, waved heavily into the void, "Shot the arrow!"

Five thousand Yan army cavalry led their bows and shot arrows at the same time, and the feathered arrows flew upwards like locusts at an angle of 45 degrees, then turned their heads and fell down, and the arrows fell into the ground.

The Wei army raised a shield to block it, and Hu Zun protected Sima Yi behind him and ordered the archers to fight back.
