Chapter 63 Xie Li Anjia

As a general in the army, Zhu Xu wrote this letter quite concisely.

But what a character Huan Chong is, he can naturally figure out the major events that have happened in Xiangyang City in these extremely simple words.

After the fall of the outer city of Xiangyang, the intelligence contact between him and the inner city of Xiangyang had been blocked by the Qin army.

All he could do was send more secret spies to sneak into the Qin soldiers in the siege and often investigate the movements of the Qin army.

Huan Chong naturally knew about the fierce attack of the Qin army in the past month.

Judging from the siege scenes depicted by the spies, the scale and fierce battle situation are so large that even I have only experienced so few times.

Under such great pressure, Zhu Xu could keep the Xiangyang City guarding for no reason (well... only a little leaked when he was attacked at night). Such a record was enough to stand proudly with many generals.

No wonder his brothers Huan Wen and Huan Huo both valued Zhu Xu so much.

However, I thought that by now, Zhu Xu should have reached his limit.

After there is no food in the city, civil unrest will always happen, sooner or later, and it will never last for more than two months.

In the case of internal and external difficulties, Xiangyang is just too late to make a comeback.

But who knew that at this time, I actually received the good news from Zhu Xu.

Not only do I have extreme confidence in defending the city, but the food problems in the city are temporarily alleviating.

The reason for this is all related to the thin boy named Xie Li in front of him.

"Return to General Huan, it's Xie Li."

"Well, if what Cilun said is true, then you are a good seedling."

Huan Chong re-positioned the previous position again, leaning against the soft collapse, and said with all his thoughts.

"General Huan is over-reputable."

Xie Li also replied simply, without saying too much.

Looking at Huan Chong's expression, Xie Li knew that after Zhu Xu reported the current situation in Xiangyang City, he must have been thinking about the strategic arrangements for the Huan army in Jiangling.

If Huan Chan received this news, she would definitely want to cheer and find someone to share it as soon as possible.

However, as the head of the entire Huan family, Huan Chong has to consider the impact it can have on his family in every detail.

Very tired, but there is no way.

Looking at the current scene, Xie Li suddenly felt a little dazed. The dead Huan Wen should be like Cao Mengde, who was decisive in the Three Kingdoms period, who was not dragging on the slightest. When he stepped onto the stage, he carried the little force of his troops and overcome all obstacles and finally decided on his own unborn foundation.

Although Huan Chong in front of him has now replaced Huan Wen's position, more of them are like those behind the scenes under Cao Mengde's previous position who have been working hard and conscientiously giving advice.

Although this feeling may be a bit unfair to such a head of family, this is indeed Xie Li's most direct feeling at the moment.

If we have to compare it with military generals in the future, it should be Lu Xun and Lu Meng and other Confucian generals.

After a long time, Huan Chong waved to his young son and daughter, signaling them to go out first.

Huan Chan had originally wanted to go back to the room earlier, but just now she confirmed the situation of Uncle Zhu from Xie Li, so she had been bored to stay here.

So after his father "released", Huan Chan hurriedly bowed, took two steps at a time, and retreated out of the hall.

Huan Xian's momentum had not yet come back. After seeing his father waved, he breathed a sigh of relief and walked out with a light pace.

"Sit next to you."

"Thank you, General Huan."

"You are young, so don't be so polite and rules, just be more casual. There are no people in the hall now, so let me tell me the details of Xiangyang over the past two or three months."

After Xie Li sat down next to him, he spoke: "General Huan doesn't know anything. Xie Li just summoned Xiangyang garrison less than a month ago. So Xie Li didn't know the situation on the city wall before this."

"It's okay, just talk about it for nearly a month."

Xie Li told him what he saw on the city wall after he came here or participated in it himself.

Zhu Xu must have mentioned these in his letter. If Huan Chong still asked this, he would definitely want to know more in detail.

So Xie Li attacked the Qin army at night, built walls to defend the city, and Du Ba surrendered to the enemy, and other matters, which were quite meticulous. Although it could not be said to be both emotional and emotional, it could indeed make ordinary people feel the feeling of being there.

But after hearing this, Huan Chong on the main couch nodded slightly, without too many movements or expressions.

Not to mention the feeling of being there, even if Huan Chong was really present at that time, those scenes would not cause much fluctuations in his heart.

Afterwards, Xie Li talked about the situation of the people in the city and waited for Huan Chong's next instructions.

"Let's just do it today. I heard from Cilun that you came here with your family? Are you all settled now?"

Xie Li bowed and replied, "Thank you, General Huan, for your concern. Xie Li's family has settled down now and is in a pretty good guest house in Jiangling, Jiangbei."

"Well, if you bring your family, you are indeed more suitable to live in Jiangbei. But the guest house is not a place for a long time."

After pondering for a while, Huan Chong continued, "It's too late today, let Xian'er go there tomorrow and find a decent house in Jiangbei. If you lack anything, just tell him directly."

"Thank you General Huan!"

Xie Li stood up and replied happily to Huan Xian.

Although Huan Chong's tone is easy-going now, it is actually not much different from orders. The pretended words of mother-in-law and mother will only make people feel unhappy, and that is not Xie Li's usual style of behavior.

After leaving Huan Mansion, Xie Li followed the official in charge of the Yi Mansion. Although he was much older than Xie Li, he always walked one step behind Xie Li, and his respectful attitude made Xie Li, who had never experienced this kind of experience, feel a little difficult to adapt.

Fortunately, the two of them left Shangming City Gate in a short while and came to the riverside.

Xie Li was about to walk towards the passenger ship, but he heard the manager say, "Xie Langjun, the passenger ship is too small and unstable, so why not take the boat from Huan Mansion."

Only then did Xie Li realize that the several large ships docked by the river, which were more than five times larger than those passenger ships, were from Huan's mansion.

But after thinking about it, I immediately realized that these largest ships do not belong to the Huan family, who else can they belong to?

The manager did not follow him on the boat, but instead instructed the boatman that he would be a distinguished guest of Huan Mansion and should not be neglected.

Then he waited a few feet away from the shore before turning back.

Xie Li looked at the figures in Jiangbei and couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Finally, I came to a relatively stable place, and if I remember correctly, the stability here will last for a long time.

Then, we really have to consider the issue of the family...
