The Yan army withdrew from Lingshou City.

Li Jian was not surprised by this.

Although Le Cheng was extremely brave in fighting with his new army, whether he could defeat the main cavalry of the Yan army twice in a row was also a big question.

Instead of taking a risk to take a gamble, it is better to let the Yan army withdraw from the city.

"Anyway, they will never be able to enter the city again in their lives." Li Jian said to Le Cheng beside him with a smile.

The expression on Le Cheng's face was not as cheerful as Li Jian. He was silent for a moment and bowed to Li Jian.

"If it weren't foresighted and trained a new army in advance, Lingshou City would have been really over this time."

When talking, Le Cheng felt a little scared.

As the highest military commander in Lingshou City, if Lingshou City really falls, it is hard to blame.

It was the new army established by Li Jianlizhu that allowed Lingshou City to escape successfully and Le Cheng to escape.

Even after calculating this now, Le Cheng may have made great contributions!

Li Jian smiled and patted Le Cheng on the shoulder.

"Actually, at the beginning, I established a new army just to guard against the revival of Zhongshan Kingdom. Who knew that a Yan army came was a surprise."

"By the way, hurry up and report the victory to Dupingjun and Handan."

Du Pingjun Tian Dan was very angry and slapped the table directly.

"You're reporting what happened seven days ago now?"

"A bastard, I asked you to be scouts. I didn't let you go to the village to find women to sleep every day, and I didn't even know that the five thousand cavalry of the Yan army passed through!"

"Drag it to me and kill it!"

A moment later, a bloody population was brought up.

Tian Dan said coldly:

"Although the real battle has not yet begun, the war has continued."

"If I find someone so careless, I must deal with his military law!"

Tian Dan's roar made all the coalition generals in the tent silent.

Beside Tian Dan, Qi army commander Kuang Liang said with some concern:

"The five thousand Yan army cavalry disappeared for so long, where did they go?"

Tian Dan sighed and said:

"I don't know now. I just hope that the city behind will not suffer too much losses."

"Let's draw 10,000 cavalry first. After confirming where the Yan cavalry is going, I will personally lead the troops to intercept them. We must kill all the cavalry!"

While speaking, there was a clear murderous intent flashing in Tian Dan's eyes.

Suddenly, someone reported:

"The five hundred miles of Lingshou City are urgently accelerated!"

Tian Dan and Kuang Liang's faces changed drastically at the same time, and they said in dismay:

"It's Lingshou City!"

As the chief and deputy generals of the coalition forces, they certainly knew what the logistics base of Lingshou City meant.

Tian Dan took a deep breath and said coldly:

"What a man from Yan, he actually ran to raid Lingshou City. He wanted to cut off our food and grass!"

Kuang Liang couldn't help but say:

"If Lingshou City is captured, our army will really have to retreat."

"Du Pingjun, how many defenders we have in Lingshou City can we defend it?"

Tian Dan's face looked extremely ugly and said:

"There are only one thousand defenders in Lingshou City!"

Kuang Liang was stunned for a moment and said with a forced smile:

"Even if there are a thousand defenders, it is more than enough to maintain the city defense."

Tian Dan shook his head and did not continue speaking, but took the letter from the messenger.

As soon as he saw the beginning of the letter, Tian Dan was shocked and couldn't help but recite:

"Lejian, the chief general of the Yan army, successfully broke into Lingshou City two days ago and besieged Lingshou Camp and Grain Depot."

Kuang Liang was also shocked:

"It's over, isn't this all over?"

Tian Dan calmed down and continued to recite:

"Fortunately, the county magistrate Lecheng led 4,000 new troops to fight bravely, annihilated more than 2,000 Yan cavalry in one fell swoop, forcing the remaining Yan cavalry to withdraw from the city."

Kuang Liang was shocked:

"A new army can actually defeat five thousand well-trained Yan cavalry? This..."

As a veteran general, Kuang Liang is very knowledgeable.

A newly formed new army is relatively poor in terms of organization and discipline, which leads to their combat effectiveness becoming relatively poor.

The Yan army must have used elite troops to attack. In this case, the Lingshou Guards can still win, I have to say...

"It's a miracle, Du Pingjun." Kuang Liang sighed.

Tian Dan's thoughts kept fluctuating, and this ups and downs can only be said to be too exciting.

Tian Dan reluctantly calmed down and said with a smile:

"I just knew that it would be fine if Li Jianlai was the governor of this county."

Kuang Liang was a little curious and said:

"Do you Du Pingjun is talking about Li Jian, the county magistrate of Zhongshan County? But it seems that he has no credit for him."

Tian Dan shook his head and said slowly:

"There is a saying that those who are good at fighting have no great achievements."

"General Kuang Liang, let's not say anything else, please think about it. If there was no full support from the county magistrate, where did this new army that defeated the Yan army come from?"

Kuang Liang was obviously stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.

"In other words, this new army was actually formed by Li Jian?"

Tian Dan nodded and reached out to flick the letter paper.

"Not only that, Li Jian also expanded the camp by the way, which just included the grain warehouse in the protection of the camp."

"If this were not the case, the Yan army could directly occupy the grain depot with the first wave of charge, then you and I can only consider withdrawing the troops at the moment."

Kuang Liang's expression changed, and after a moment he let out a long sigh, he smiled:

"It's okay, this County Governor Li has really helped us!"

Li Jian walked on the aisle of the prison, and the damp feeling came to his face, and there were all kinds of odors that made people frown.

In the deepest cell, Li Jian saw Sima Ping.

Sima Ping obviously went through some interrogation and had blood stains on his body.

The movement of the door being opened alarmed Sima Ping. After seeing that it was Li Jian coming in, Sima Ping's face showed an unconcealed light of hatred.

Li Jian sat down in the only seat in the prison cell and said to Sima Ping:

"Actually, there is one thing I can't understand. Since you, Sima family did not cooperate with the Zhongshan family during the first rebellion, why should you assist the Yan people this time?"

Sima Ping spitted a mouthful of phlegm at Li Jian, but he was too weak, and the phlegm fell about three feet in front of Li Jian.

Seeing this, Mao Sui was furious and was about to go up and teach Sima Ping a lesson, but was stopped by Li Jian.

Li Jian knocked on the wooden table in front of him and said to Sima Ping:

"Actually, I can understand the mood of people like you. When doing such a big thing, you should have been mentally prepared to die."

"But I still recommend that you cooperate with my official's interrogation, it is for the benefit of your family."

Sima Ping said angrily:

"You are mean!"

Li Jian said lightly:

"If you tell everything that the official wants to know, then a boy with Sima's family who is not higher than the wheel can be spared from death and just exiled to the border as a slave."

"If you don't say it, the Sima family in Lingshou City will be defeated from then on."

Sima Ping stared at Li Jian angrily, hoping to swallow Li Jian alive.
