"Okay! OK!! Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog son! Although General Xiang was unfortunately killed by Xiao Xiao's sneak attack, if the general is here, Chu State will still have hope! I am not a person who is afraid of death. Since the general still has some use to go to me at this time, even if I am broken into pieces, I will definitely do my part for Chu State! But there are tens of thousands of Qin troops stationed here in Yingchen City. If I want to successfully capture Yingchen City, the general will still help me solve these Qin soldiers." Mi Qi, who got new hope, no longer had the indifference and melancholy as before. Seeing his red and excited face, those who don't know thought that Qin State had been annexed by Chu State.

Since Xiang Liang decided to come to Yingchen to deceive Mi Qi, he had long begun to consider how he would deal with the tens of thousands of Qin soldiers in Yingchen City after he successfully persuaded Mi Qi: "Although these Qin soldiers are elite, the generals who commanded them are not well-known generals. In addition, our army Yu Pingyu had just failed, so the soldiers guarding the rear must have underestimated the enemy.

When Yu Pingyu was defeated and retreated that day, I specially arranged a side army to rush to Yingchen from a small mountain road. Although the number of this army was not large and its morale was extremely low, it was still more than enough to be a bait to lure the Qin army in Yingchen City. I believe that after luring most of the Qin army in the city out of the city, Mr. Mi should be able to easily take Yingchen down, right?"

Mi Qi laughed and said, "Although I was driven out of Xianyang, some of the secret forces I had accumulated were still in my hands. Moreover, most of the guards in Yingchen City were natives from Yingchen. Although these people participated in the Qin army, they still care about the Chu State. Some of the commanders have been bribed by me. As long as the elite Qin army soldiers left by Li Xin'er will be transferred out, Yingchen City will be at your fingertips!"

A look of excitement flashed in Xiang Liang's eyes: "In this way, we will start planning the details of the city."

Mi Qi nodded, got up and walked into his study with Xiang Liang.

...................... Dividing line............

"Come, go and call General Lu Bu to my account to discuss matters." Li Xin shouted in a low voice with a serious expression on his face.

"No." The personal soldiers Ying Nuo split the two of them and walked quickly towards the camp where Lu Bu was resting.

Lu Bu's camp was not far from Li Xin's camp. After receiving the message from Li Xin's guards, he stepped into Li Xin's camp within a moment: "I have seen the general, but I wonder what instructions will the general give in the future?"

Li Xin waved to Lu Bu and signaled him to sit on the stool beside him to speak.

Lu Bu knew that Li Xin must have something important to discuss with him, so he stopped being polite with Li Xin. He sat on the stool, straightened his waist and looked straight in Li Xin's eyes, and quietly waited for Li Xin to speak.

Li Xin was a little bored and pushed the bamboo slips on the table table in front of him to the corner of the table table, poured a glass of wine from the wine pot into his wine cup, took a sip of the wine in the glass, and then spoke to Lu Bu: "Fengxian, how many days have passed since we won the hundreds of thousands of troops of Xiang Yan that day?"

Lu Bu was a little confused by Li Xin's words. Logically speaking, the situation was very good after the Pingyu victory. He also prevented the rebellion that might have occurred because he left tens of thousands of elite troops in Yingchen and was worried. Why did Li Xin's expression be filled with sorrow?

"Li Pingyu's victory was probably more than a month long. Why did the general ask this?" Lu Bu asked curiously.

Li Xin murmured to Lu Bu with a hint of bitterness on his face: "On the day of the victory, I sent several elite cavalry to Xianyang to report the victory. Logically speaking, more than a month has passed, so the king's reply should have arrived. But now not only did the king not show any attitude towards our victory, but even the usual edict of rewards did not bring our envoys. I guess if the king is suspicious of me."

Lu Bu was stunned. Will Ying Zheng be suspicious of Li Xin? There is no such thing in history! Speaking of suspicion, Wang Jian made so many achievements for the Qin Dynasty, and his prestige in the army even surpassed the King of Qin, but Ying Zheng just avoided him leading troops to make contributions. Li Xin only won a great victory. Even if Ying Zheng said nothing, it would be impossible for him to suppress the young general who had just been promoted by him at this time.

However, Li Xin's speculation was not groundless. The envoys who reported the victory had been gone for more than a month. With the distance between Pingyu and Xianyang at that time, with the full force of one man and two horses, it only took about half a month to get back from Xianyang with the reward edict from King Ying Zheng of Qin to the army. However, not only has the edict not coming, but even any of the envoys were unable to come back. Behind this unusual must be some things that Li Xin and Lu Bu did not know clearly that happened, which caused this.

"General, don't worry too much about this matter. Maybe the envoy delayed his trip in Xianyang City. Maybe the king's reward edict will come in a few days." Lu Bu could only comfort Li Xin in this way.

Li Xin rubbed the swelling and painful Taiyang acupoints with one hand, and said softly with an extremely tired expression: "I hope this is the case. Alas, although our first plan to attack Chu has been completed, I don't know what happened recently. I am always awakened by nightmares every night, and after waking up, I always feel an inexplicable restlessness. Maybe I am too concerned, but since our army entered Shouchun south, there has been less and less contact with us in the rear, and there has been no news from Yingchen in the past few days..."

"What! There has been no news for Yingchen for several days?" Lu Bu's expression instantly became extremely ugly.

Ying Chen, the most critical hub of the Qin army commanded by Li Xin and the rear in the battle against Chu. Once there is any mistake in Ying Chen, the entire battle situation will be reversed. This is also the real reason why Li Xin failed in history after defeating the main force of the Chu army commanded by Xiang Yan, but ultimately destroyed the entire army.

Lu Bu felt a little crazy at this time because he knew that Ying Chen had a fatal hidden danger, so he was willing to reduce the strength of his partial army and left all the precious tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Ying Chen to ensure the safety of the army's retreat. But now Li Xin told himself that Ying Chen's defenders had cut off contact with Li Xin for a while!

What does this mean? Did Ying Chen eventually fall? Lu Bu dared not think about what would his final fate be if history really returned to its original trajectory. Lu Bu forced himself to calm down. At this time, the most important thing was to confirm the authenticity of the matter immediately.

"General, the last general suggested that you send more than a hundred cavalry back to Yingchen in batches immediately. If Yingchen is really lost, more than 100,000 soldiers in the army, the general and the last general, may encounter a catastrophe!" Lu Bu looked at Li Xin with a serious expression, and told him the worst possibility without hesitation.
