Chapter 525 The Chaotic North

Li Yunfei himself is not in danger, it's just that he can't solve the entanglement of the three of them for a while, but Thirty-Six and Xiao Qiao in the distance are full of dangers, and Thirty-Six can protect himself under the siege of twenty or thirty people. Much stronger than half of the soldiers. And although Xiao Qiao said that her sword skills were not bad, she had never seen such a big battle. She was surrounded by several assassins, and she was in danger. Maybe those assassins wanted to be captured alive in order to persist.

Fortunately, the Thirty-six Units immediately sent a message for help, and there was a faint roar from the ground. The rescue came really quickly, and it only took a few minutes. They came from the northeast, it should be Lu Lingqi who brought her crossbow cavalry, and there should be a lot of them, there must be at least two or three thousand people in the dusty appearance.

"Lv thief, leave your head on your body for the time being, and I will kill you next time." Ma Chao yelled and ran away. Sun Ce and Huang Zhong ran away without saying a word. Seeing that several leaders ran away, they also followed suit. Although these people are all skilled, they are not professional assassins, otherwise Thirty Six and Xiao Qiao will definitely die.

Li Yunfei didn't go after him, but rode back to the vicinity of the carriage, keeping a distance from the group of assassins, so that Lu Lingqi could make a big move, the ultra-long-distance crossbow attack was not accurate enough.

Seeing that Li Yunfei didn't dare to chase after them, Sun Ce and the others relaxed a lot, thinking that it was safe, because the rescuers were still three to four hundred steps away. In their perception, such a long distance seemed to be beyond the crossbow placed on the top of the city. There is no such weapon that can hit that far. As for the pursuit of the cavalry behind, the horses they brought over this time are all very fast horses, and it is not a problem to get rid of the pursuit, so they turned around and rode away without any scruples.

However, tragedy happened when they turned around and galloped boldly. The rain of arrows fell from the sky with the sound of piercing the sky. In an instant, more than half of them fell to the ground. Another wave of arrows has arrived...

Li Yunfei didn't look at the one-sided killing, but checked the injuries of the two of them. Generally speaking, the blood on Thirty-Six's body came from the enemy, only a few skin wounds, and Xiao Qiao didn't have any injuries at all. However, the clothes were damaged in many places, the hair looked very messy, and the panting man was obviously tired.

"Thirty-Six's appearance today is very good!" Patted Thirty-Six on the shoulder and said.

"My subordinates are ashamed. If it wasn't for Ms. Qiao who could still protect herself, then..."

"Don't blame yourself, you've done a good job...Little Qiao, are you okay?" Seeing that Xiao Qiao was about to fall, she hurried over to help her, and saw that her clothes were damaged in many places, and even In some places, the flesh was almost exposed, so he took off his robe and put it on for her.

"Thank you General, I'm just tired, and my hands and feet are a little weak." She felt ashamed as she spoke, but she was actually not tired but frightened.

The several assassins who besieged her just now were stronger than her by a point. It was a certain death, but those assassins wanted to catch them alive, and she was fighting with her life so she was not subdued, but several times it was dangerous. Dead or alive, I really feel scared when I think about it.

"Well, you were very brave just now... Thirty-six, let's go back to the city first. Since there is an accident in the north, we must deploy as soon as possible, and we can leave the matter here to Qi'er." As he said, he directly picked up the man and got into the carriage, and let the three Shiliu drove back to the city, and the matter was deliberately handed over to Lu Lingqi to cultivate her ability to deal with various emergencies.

"General, since Miss is here, I'd better go down and greet you!" Xiao Qiao, who was sitting next to Li Yunfei, struggled to stand up, and it happened that at this moment the carriage shook, and she sat on Li Yunfei's lap before she could stand still. , Li Yunfei also subconsciously stretched out his hand to hug him... The only feeling is that it is so flexible, Xiao Qiao also froze there and did not dare to move, because no matter how you look at it, she sat in Li Yunfei's arms on purpose just now...

"...Uh, it's okay, just take a good rest and talk about it after Qi'er has finished handling the matter." Since everyone sat in his arms on his own initiative, of course he didn't push him out in a bewildered manner, and said It's a bastard not to take advantage of it, and take advantage of it in order not to be a bastard. It seems that it is used as a meat pad by others, and it is not just to take advantage of yourself. In this world, he is the number one hunk who fascinates thousands of young girls. For example, Xiao Qiao took the initiative to throw himself into his arms...

The carriage stopped after walking for a while, because a person was chasing after him on horseback. It was Xiao Bu, although she was incapable, but after seeing the master's signal to ask for advice, she immediately rode a horse and chased him out of the camp without hesitation...

"Master and servant girl are here!" Li Yunfei was thinking about whether to put the beauty in his arms aside and sit down before anyone could hear, when he suddenly found that the girl had fallen asleep. He suspected that she was pretending to be asleep, otherwise How can a person fall asleep so fast?

"...Master, is sister Xiao Qiao injured?" As soon as she got on the carriage, she saw Xiao Qiao lying in Li Yunfei's arms, her eyes closed, her face pale, she looked like a wounded patient.

"I'm tired and scared, but now I'm asleep. When did you learn how to ride a horse, Xiao Bu?" To avoid embarrassment, Li Yunfei changed the subject.

"This, in fact, it hasn't been long since the servants learned it, and they only learned it last month." Recalling that Li Yunfei always pretended to be scared when he led him to ride a horse, and kept paying back the courtesy to Li Yunfei...

"...Come here and sit down, I never thought that a simple girl like you could be so good at pretending."

"No, no, this servant has never dared to ride a horse alone, but today I suddenly heard that something happened to the master, so I dared to ride."

"Well, since you care so much about the master, I don't blame you!"

"Master...how about this servant help you to hold sister Xiao Qiao, you must have been exhausted just now!" As soon as Xiao Bu finished speaking, he felt Xiao Qiao's eyelashes flicker a few times, and he was sure that she was awake. , To avoid embarrassment, deliberately pretend to be asleep.

"Of course not. How can a little girl like you help with this kind of physical work?"

...

Only a few of the assassins escaped from the shooting range of the strong crossbow, and most of them were injured. Lu Lingqi did not continue to chase because they could not catch up, but immediately sent messengers to pass orders to the gates of the cities. To arrest the assassins, of course, the possibility of catching those few people is not very high. Since these people can come quietly, of course there is a way to leave silently.

This incident has little impact on Li Yunfei, but it still has a great impact on the entire Xuzhou New Army. The lord was assassinated in his safest place. Many people feel ashamed, and the old nine who is in charge of intelligence is even more guilty. If he had to resign, in the end Li Yunfei personally came forward to appease him, which was considered an atonement. The transmission from the north was delayed by half a beat, and Li Yunfei didn't receive the message until he returned to the city.

Yuan Shao did die of illness, to be precise, he died suddenly after having too much fun with a concubine, although the death was very strange, but no one could tell what was wrong, and his three sons did not Spend too much energy to investigate, but really many heirs to the position. Fighting to the death, the north now can be said to be a mess, and it is no wonder that there were so many old and weak women and children in Xuchang who were in urgent need of help some time ago.

Yuan Shao's forces were in civil turmoil, and Li Yunfei's 200,000-odd army stationed in the north, of course, would not give up the great opportunity to take the opportunity to occupy a large area, and even the land of Chang'an in Luoyang was included in the bag, although it has become a place of war due to years of wars. It is in ruins, and the population is very small, but the foundation there is still there, and it will prosper again after a few years of good development.

Almost all the sites south of the Yellow River were acquired. These sites were originally owned by Cao Cao, then Yuan Shao, and now Li Yunfei. In just one year, three managers were changed. The common people can be said to be miserable, running to die, only some old and weak women and children who can't run are left in the ruins to die.

Fortunately, this year Li Yunfei has a bumper harvest, otherwise he would have to watch from afar, not daring to occupy those territories. Although there are few people, it is a large area with a total population of several million of. Because of the war, most of these people's food and food were taken away by soldiers. If there is no timely rescue, many people will not be able to survive this winter.

Teams of small teams took some food and grass to attack around. After seeing the victims, they first cooked a thick porridge, and then guided the victims to gather in the city for unified rescue transfer. This process was quite slow and wasted manpower.

If it wasn't for Li Yunfei's order, Xu Zhe would not have been willing to do this. In fact, the better way now is to directly concentrate his troops across the north of the Yellow River, sweep away Yuan Shao's forces, and occupy those territories.

...

"Brother Yang (Hu Yi's name is Yang Xiao), what kind of person do you think the lord is, and why did you give up such a good opportunity? This time we have a chance to unify the north. What a pity." Xu Shu looked at him happily. It's a pity that the opportunity was given up.

"The last thing my lord sees is that a large number of people are starved to death without being rescued. This is not the lord's style of doing things. When the lord talked with us before, he said a word, but it is still fresh in his memory."

"What did you say?"

"It is meaningful to have talents in this world. If there are no people, it will be useful to have people in the world!" Hu Yi imitated Li Yunfei's tone and said.

"...It is said that Liu Bei is kind, but I think the lord who smashed the door is even more kind...It's a pity that a lot of time, money and material resources were wasted to save people. Although it has gained some people's support, after the north stabilizes, it will be difficult to attack again. It has become much more difficult, and it is said that Cao Cao has gained a firm foothold in Youzhou again."

"Cao Cao is just the lord's defeated general. Why are you afraid of him? We just need to do things according to the orders. The will of the lord is our direction."

"...You're still open-minded, don't think about it, tomorrow there will be tens of thousands of disaster victims coming, I have to make arrangements first."
