The Net!
Lin Yi glanced at Wang Yue, who quickly went over and stopped him.
When he returned, he had a letter in his hand, and his expression was rather grim.
"My lord, something has happened at Little Pine Mountain!"
"How is Li Sansi?" Lin Yi asked, frowning.
Wang Yue paused for a moment, then smiled bitterly, " Li Sansi stayed behind to cover the retreat. In the end, to avoid falling into enemy hands, he committed suicide. Only Li Yunqing, the heir of the Northern Ning, and He Zudao escaped back to the south bank, where they are now facing off against Tuoba Yu. Before his death, Li Sansi left a letter for them to deliver to you!"
He handed the letter in his hand to Lin Yi; it was Li Sansi's letter.
call!
Upon hearing this news, Lin Yi remained silent for a moment. Li Sansi was actually dead, and his death was so gruesome.
Upon opening the letter, Lin Yi couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
He couldn't help but mutter, "What a fine Prince of Beining Commandery, he died a worthy death. But leaving me with this trick up my sleeve is a bit too much!"
The letter contained very simple information: it invited him, the Heir of Northern Liang, to travel south in his name to save the people of Ningchuan Commandery.
This is blatant moral blackmail!
I was just praising him, and this guy turns around and pulls this stunt. He's just never going to sit still.
"My lord, it seems Li Sansi doesn't trust their emperor, which is why he's set his sights on you." Zhang Liao couldn't help but chuckle, his face full of disdain.
It's absurd that an emperor could be so distrusted even by his own family. It seems everyone has come to accept that the emperor's character is utterly unreliable.
"Pah!"
Zhou Cang couldn't help but spit and said angrily, "That shameless bastard, he even wants our lord to help him! He was just watching us make a fool of ourselves."
"It was indeed Great Ning who broke the rules first, and we have a clear conscience!" Ma Chao couldn't help but sneer.
He broke the rules himself, yet he still wanted the lord's help; that was really presumptuous of him.
Jia Xu, however, laughed and exclaimed, "This Li Sansi is no simple man; his actions are quite meaningful."
"What deeper meaning?" Everyone was completely bewildered. Was there some hidden story behind this?
Jia Xu nodded and smiled, " Li Sansi knew perfectly well that our lord wouldn't save him, so why did he still choose to write a letter to our lord? It's because this letter serves as a token!"
"A token?"
"Indeed, he was certain that our lord harbored ambitions and would definitely set his sights on Little Pine Mountain and Ningchuan Commandery. This letter was his reason for giving our lord an excuse to interfere in the affairs of Ningchuan Commandery..."
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that this was to give their lord a pretext to invade Ningchuan Commandery.
In this way, the lord will have no choice but to take action against Tuoba Yu, which is indeed a brilliant move.
Lin Yi took a deep breath. Regardless of whether Li Sansi meant it or not, this battle was inevitable.
Now that this battle has dragged on for so long, it's time to take action and end it.
He glanced at Chen Qun and said in a deep voice, " Chen Qun, send people to prepare to transport the supplies over. This battle is almost over."
Since Tuoba Yu has already marched towards Ningchuan Commandery, then I will cut off his Ziwu Road.
It just so happens that the passage through Heavenly Pillar Peak was completed today, perhaps it was ordained by heaven that I was to send troops to destroy Tuoba Yu's lair.
Hiss!
The crowd was filled with excitement; the battle had finally arrived!
Ma Chao was even more excited, exclaiming, "Rest assured, my lord, I will slaughter every last enemy, leaving no one alive, and turn that place into your backyard!"
"Then kill them!"
Lin Yi nodded, then turned around. Now that the great battle had begun, he should also get moving and take a look at Ningchuan Commandery.
"My lord, what about me?" Zhang Liao was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly asked.
"Stand by!"
Forehead!
Zhang Liao's lips twitched; he thought he was going to have to charge in too.
Jia Xu glanced at him and said irritably, "If you attack now, do you think Great Ning will be grateful? They'll just come to their senses and attack you again!"
"Indeed, different stances mean that mercy is cruelty to oneself!" The gentle and refined Chen Qun uttered the cruelest words at this moment, leaving Zhang Liao speechless.
Lin Yi glanced at him; indeed, scholars are more ruthless.
In Xiliang Commandery, Bai Zizai Yi Yun were in a panic because they discovered that the Crown Prince had disappeared.
"What's going on? How come the young master and his men have disappeared?" Bai Zizai looked at the empty prefectural residence and couldn't help but ask angrily.
Yi Yun gave him a disgruntled look and said awkwardly, "Don't look at me like that. My Northern Liang Guard aren't very effective here. I only know that the young master seems to have gone up the mountain, but I don't know exactly where."
"Damn it, what right do you have to manage the Northern Liang Guard? You might as well just be blind," Bai Zizai said, speechless.
Holy crap!
Yi Yundun flew into a rage, angrily saying, " Old Man Bai, what do you mean? You're the local landlord, shouldn't you? You should know more about this place than I do. You don't even know, and now you're blaming me? I suggest you go back to growing sweet potatoes!"
Forehead!
Two beads of cold sweat dripped down the forehead of the guards on the side. These two were really hot-tempered; they were almost about to fight.
He explained, "My lords, the young master went out earlier and is expected to return after dark. Why don't you go back first?"
"Snort!"
Their gazes instantly fell on him, sharp and piercing, making him quickly shut his mouth. This guy was not someone to mess with.
"Hey, grandpa, what are you doing here?"
When Lin Yi returned, he saw Bai Zizai Yi Yun squatting at the gate and couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. There were two extra gatekeepers now.
Upon seeing Lin Yi, Bai Zizai scrambled to his feet and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, I've received news that Li Sansi has been defeated and committed suicide. This is a serious matter!"
"What does this have to do with us?" Lin Yi's words immediately broke his defenses.
"Oh right, what does it have to do with us?"
Bai Zizai's old face stiffened. That was indeed a problem. This had nothing to do with Xiliang Commandery. Let them fight it out themselves.
Yi Yun's eyes lit up, and he agreed, "I also think we should pretend we didn't see it, just like Li Sansi did to us before. That's the best choice! If we defeat Tuoba Yu, Li Anlan will probably still target us!"
nonsense!
Lin Yi had no doubt about this, after all, Li Anlan could not tolerate the super rise of Northern Liang.
The Northern Liang was already formidable enough, but now with the Xiliang added to the mix, Li Anlan probably wants nothing more than to kill himself and his son.
What grand principles are, in his eyes, probably just empty words.
Lin Yi shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I also want to help Great Ning, but my Xiliang Commandery suffered heavy losses and is no longer able to fight! However, it is my duty to rescue Great Ning, and I have decided to recruit another 50,000 soldiers!"
