Li Yu frowned secretly and pondered without saying a word.

Zhang Hong, Ming Zhao and others also had serious expressions.

Han Rui, Zhang Dong, and Meng Wei looked at each other and were shaking their heads slightly.

Although we won a great victory tonight, we did not hurt the vitality of the owl army outside the city.

Killing and injuring two thousand enemy troops is really a drop in the bucket and cannot change the overall situation!

"Which tribe do you come from in Xiaoyang Kingdom?"

"Sunu Tribe."

"This time the troops were led by King Sunu Xi Jie?"

"No...no, it's Xi Yu."

Li Yu didn't know who Xi Yu was, so he looked at Zhang Hong.

The latter approached him and explained in a low voice: "Your Highness, Xi Yu is the eldest son of King Sunu Xi Jie!"

Li Yu nodded, he looked at the owl soldier and asked, "Why did Xi Yu lead the army to invade Zhou?"

The owl looked at him carefully, shook his head and said, "I don't know..."

He was just a soldier, so he didn't know what Xi Yu was thinking.

Li Yu asked again: "How many soldiers are there in your Sunu tribe?"

"More than 30,000..."

The entire tribe has only more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, and Xi Yu brought out more than 20,000 people alone. Even if Xi Yu is Xi Jie's son, this seems unreasonable.

He asked curiously: "Xi Jie is so relieved, hand over more than 20,000 troops to Xi Yu?"

"The king...the king is now...in Mengshan Village."

When Zhang Hong heard this, he was shocked and said quickly: "Your Highness, Mengshan is at the junction of our Great Zhou and Xiaoyang Kingdom. Mengshan Village is at the foot of Mengshan Mountain!"

Oh! So, Xi Jie didn't come, he just didn't lead his troops to the front line.

Li Yu touched his chin, did not continue to ask questions, and turned around and walked out.

Seeing this, the rest followed.

Meng Liao asked, "Your Highness will no longer inquire about the military information of the Owls outside the city?"

Li Yu shook his head.

There is nothing to ask about. Once the 18,000 Xiao army will be able to resist the city with all its strength.

Han Rui coughed lightly and whispered: "Your Highness, the thief outside the city has a huge force! In this battle, even if our soldiers tried their best to pieces and were crushed to pieces, it would still be difficult to protect Pingchang!"

When the rest of the people heard this, they frowned, but no one refuted Han Rui's words.

What he said was the truth.

Tonight's victory can only be regarded as a lucky draw and has little impact on the overall strength of the Xiao Army.

When dawn, the Xiao army launched a large-scale attack again, and it was difficult for them to successfully resist.

Li Yu suddenly stopped, turned to look at Zhang Hong, and asked, "How many sons do Xi Jie have?"

Zhang Hong was stunned, pondered for a moment, and said, "It should... there should be several! I don't know how many sons Xi Jie has, but I don't know, but I know that there are Xi Yu, Xi Zhuo, Xi Yuan and others."

Li Yu said thoughtfully: "If Xi Jie suddenly dies, who will inherit his throne?"

"This...is not easy to say. Although Xi Yu is the eldest son, Xi Zhuo, Xi Yuan and others are also eyeing the throne..."

Before he finished speaking, Meng Liao's eyes flashed suddenly. He looked at Li Yu in surprise and asked in surprise: "What does your highness mean to...attack Mengshan Village?"

As soon as he said this, everyone present changed their faces.

Li Yu nodded and said, "To solve the current crisis, there is no possibility of success in the enemy! The best solution I can think of is to surround Wei and save Zhao. Send an elite cavalry to quietly leave the city, bypass the camp of the Xiao army, and attack Mengshan Village!

"As long as Xi Jie can be successfully killed, Xi Yu will surely lead his army to retreat immediately in order to compete for the throne. In this way, the crisis in Pyeongchang will be resolved without fighting."

Everyone looked at each other, and they had to say that Li Yu's strategy was too bold.

Han Rui said worriedly: "Your Highness, if our army has too many troops, it will definitely arouse the alertness of the Xiaojun..."

Li Yu said: "So, the soldiers who attacked Mengshan Village should not exceed 200."

Han Rui said with a puzzled look: "Only two hundred people attacked Mengshan Village. Isn't this a rock with an egg?"

Meng Liao continued: "Not necessarily! The main troops of the Sunu tribe are all here in Xi Yu, and Xi Jie must not have many troops around him. Now, Xi Yu is attacking Pingchang City with all his might. The thief never dreamed that we would take the initiative to attack Mengshan Village. Unexpectedly, attack him unprepared. Your Highness's surprise attack strategy is worth attacking!"

The troops are on the verge of danger.

At present, Li Yu's dangerous chess move is the most likely strategy to be successful.

Of course, Li Yu was unable to think of this dangerous move, but of course he was not a hot-headed person who was able to figure it out.

There have been similar successful battles in history.

Huo Qubing once led 800 cavalrymen to leave the main force of the Han army, inserted hundreds of miles into the hinterland of the Huns, directly confiscated the Huns' lairs, killed thousands of enemies, and became famous in one battle.

Li Yu’s current strategy is to follow Huo Qubing’s back then.

Meng Liao intervened to Li Yu and said, "Your Highness! I can lead two hundred soldiers to attack Mengshan Village!"

"You have to stay in Pyeongchang City."

"Your Highness..."

"I'll go!"

"Your Highness--" Everyone was shocked and shouted in unison.

This sneak attack mission is a life-and-death death mission, so how can everyone feel at ease to let Li Yu take the risk personally?

Li Yu waved his hand to everyone and interrupted their dissuasion. He said to Zhang Hong: "Premier Zhang!"

"Wei...Weichen is here!"

"Are you afraid of death?"

Zhang Hong swallowed, lifted up the front of the official robe, knelt on the ground, and said word by word: "Your Highness is Pingchang, regardless of life and death. As the prefect of Pingchang, I should follow Your Highness, with the swords and fires, and my heart is trampled on the ground. I will never refuse!"

He thought Li Yu wanted to sneak attack Mengshan Village with him.

However, he misunderstood Li Yu's intention.

Li Yu said: "Premier Zhang, wait until dawn, you go to the camp of the Xiaojun."

"ah?"

"Go to negotiate the conditions with the Xiaojun. You decide for yourself how to discuss it. In short, try to delay the time. Before noon, you cannot let the Xiaojun attack Pingchang City!"

Zhang Hong's thoughts changed and finally understood what Li Yu meant.

Even if I set out immediately and arrived at Mengshan Village, it was almost dawn.

Even though its own sneak attack tactic was successful, the Xiao army had already begun to attack the city on the side of Pingchang City.

The news of the attack on Mengshan Village may not have reached Xi Yu's ears, and the Xiao army had already conquered Pingchang City.

In this way, it becomes meaningless for one's own side to attack Mengshan Village.

Zhang Hong said seriously: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will do all my efforts to delay the Xiao army and make them not attack the city before noon!"

Li Yu's eyes turned, then looked at Lu Fang again, and said, "The real person will go with Taishou Zhang!"

Lu Fang was quite surprised.

He thought Li Yu would let him go to Mengshan Village with him.

He reminded: "Your Highness, it is extremely dangerous to attack Mengshan Village."

Li Yu said: "No matter how dangerous it is, there is a choice. At that time, you can choose to fight or give up according to the specific situation of Mengshan Village. Once Zhang Taishou enters the camp of the Xiaojun, he will have no choice. That is the real life-threatening life and extremely dangerous.

"The real person does not kill, but is proficient in earth-based escape techniques. Once Xi Yu has a desire to kill Zhang Taishou, if the real person is there, he can protect Zhang Taishou from the Xiaojun camp."
