Black pine forest eight miles northeast of Huai County.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou smiled bitterly, and they were confused and didn't know what to do.

"Brother, we have been trapped for three days. In these eight days, our soldiers were quite injured. Fortunately, we have been in control and have not surrendered yet. However, before, it does not mean that there will be no food in the future. Especially since our food is not enough to support it, the soldiers will have at most one day of food. If there is no rescue within one day, once the food is exhausted, the morale of the army will be turbulent immediately. At that time, even your and my lives will be difficult, let alone break through. I heard that you and the enemy general Chang Chun admire each other. Although they are enemies, they also appreciate each other. Have you ever thought about what should we do once our army falls into a desperate situation? Should we abandon the army and break through, or learn from Junyi..."

"Stop!" Yan Liang interrupted before he could finish his words, and shouted in a deep voice: "Brother, you and I, as military generals, should learn from Ma Fubo and Ma Jie, how can we surrender like Jun Yi? As for abandoning the soldiers and escaping alone, I, Yan Liang, have never had that idea. The reason why these soldiers insisted on not surrendering before was because of their trust in us. Now that they do not surrender, how can we even be inferior to them? Jun Yi and the others surrendered because of helplessness. Now that the lord trusts us so much, and the rewards are generous, how can we be such a person who is betrayed? What's more, I believe that the lord will definitely arrange troops to save us. Even if we can't come, a real man will be a hero who will be a hero for a lifetime!"

"Brother, don't be angry." Wen Chou hurriedly said, "I'm just talking. As long as my brother goes, I'll go wherever I go. We depend on each other in life and death. What else can I say? But unfortunately, once we die, there will be no real famous generals under the lord."

But Yan Liang laughed and said, "If you talk about famous generals, there is not a single lord under your command. In addition to our four generals in Hejian, there is also a famous general who can be called a generation, and his contributions are no worse than us. However, this person is too arrogant and has always been disliked by the lord."

"This is true, this Kuo Yi's ability is indeed extraordinary. His contribution is greater than that of us, but so what? He is proud of his contribution and doesn't even take his lord seriously. How dare a lord like this use him?" Wen Chou's face was full of disdain, and he said with a chuckling.

However, Yan Liang said, "But now, if the generals under the lord can rescue us, this is probably the only one who can save us. I just don't know if the lord dares to use him?"

"This..." Wen Chou was speechless after hearing this. Of course, he would have hoped that the most hope of saving them would appear, but he knew that there was almost no possibility.

However, just as they gradually stopped hoping for reinforcements, they suddenly heard a clamor coming from a distance. When they heard the sound, they were surprised and at the same time they were beating wildly. Could it be that their reinforcements were really coming?

At this time, someone shouted loudly in the distance: "Where are the two generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou? Pingyuan Que is here to save you, and meet me quickly."

"It's really Tuo Yi. He's really here!" Yan Liang and Wen were all over the scandal. They were all in high spirits and led their soldiers to fight out desperately.

Although the soldiers under Xun You were brave, it was difficult for Queyi and Yan Liang and Wen Chou to attack each other from the back. In order to avoid more damage, Xun You decisively ordered the soldiers to withdraw immediately.

"I really didn't expect that this Tuo Yi's ability to command troops was so strong, even above Yan Liang and Wen Chou. I'm afraid it's not bad than me. The soldiers under his command were all brave and good at fighting. Even we were unable to resist in a hurry. Moreover, the contributions he made were greater than Yan Liang and Wen Chou. So from this point of view, he was the first general under Yuan Shao. But I have always heard that this Tuo Yi was rebellious and relied on his military achievements. Not to mention Yan Liang and Wen Chou, even Yuan Shao didn't take it seriously.

If such a person wants to let him fight, Yuan Shao probably has given him relatively generous conditions. However, I also guess that this Tuo Yi will not have a few days left. After the battle is over, Yuan Shao will definitely kill him with his heart. Unfortunately, such a famous general will end like this. There are not many wise rulers in this world who can tolerate subordinates like the lord. Yuan Shao is still a hero, and he may have to kill Qu Yi in the end, let alone those lords who are not as good as Yuan Shao."

Xun You felt deeply moved. There will be another real famous general in this world in the near future, and the one who ruined this person will be his lord. This sounds really creepy.

But now is not the time to worry about Qu Yi's fate, because he has to do his best to deal with Qu Yi's attack next time. Qu Yi is different from Yan Liang and Wen Chou. These two are just brave and have not strong military leadership skills, but Qu Yi can exert their overall strength, and this is definitely a strong enemy of his own.

So Xun You hurriedly reported the details to Pei Qing, and returned to Yewang City to actively deploy defenses.

It’s not that Xun You didn’t want to occupy Huai County, but mainly because both Gao Shan and Yan Liang were in an active offensive situation before, and they never thought about the deployment of Huai County. Therefore, the city there was broken and not enough to defend. In addition, once the center of gravity of the guards went from Ye Wang to Huai County, the supply line would be lengthened, which was very unfavorable to the subsequent battle. Since the army’s food and grass were not too abundant, we must find ways to minimize the supply line in order to save military rations.

Pei Qing soon received a letter from Xun You. After seeing Xun You's concern for Qu Yi, he immediately smiled and said, "Although Qu Yi is capable, Yuan Shao may not dare to use it alone again, because he has no ability to control it at all. I predict that Yuan Shao will definitely fight for Hanoi next, so that he can realize his dream of using the emperor to command the princes. So we should prepare for the battle next time. We haven't sent troops to fight in person for a long time. I wonder how much of my ability has been put down?"

Deng Dang, who was standing beside him, smiled and said, "The lord's martial arts skills are unparalleled in the world. No one can match him when he comes to the formation. This is the number one general in the world."

After hearing this, Xie Yingdeng, Zheng Chang and others all agreed with Deng Dang's words.
