The guards shouted to follow Li Hao.
Rong Chang'an was afraid that Li Hao was full of tricks, and the strength of the guards was far behind that of the rebels. If he chased him, he would be like a wolf entering the mouth of a tiger.
"Everyone, stop chasing! The art of war says, don't chase the poor, for fear of being bitten by them. We wiped out so many of them tonight, enough for them to tremble in fear for a few days."
Rong Chang'an ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, and asked people to immediately install gates on the city gate, close the city gate, and continue to strengthen the defense.
The news of Li Hao's defeat reached the ears of the prince and princess, and their faces were filled with horror and horror. Li Hao can be regarded as fierce, but he was still defeated by "Concubine Xue", which shows that the fighting power of "Concubine Xue" is really scary.
"Princess, we... what should we do?" The prince has not slept until now, thinking about the situation in the direction of the palace. His eyes were bloodshot, with bags under his eyes.
Hearing the terrified words of the prince, Li Ying's heart also jumped.
Is this "Concubine Snow" really her nemesis? No matter what she tried, she couldn't get rid of "Concubine Xue"? Is "Concubine Xue" a human being or a god
"Princess? Concubine?" The prince was even more frightened when he did not receive a response from the concubine. His eyes seemed to be falling out of their sockets.
"Don't panic!" Although Li Ying said so, the hands in the long sleeves were tightly twisted together, "I believe Li Hao still has a way."
The rebels disguised themselves as citizens and sneaked into the palace. It was originally a very brilliant strategy, but "Concubine Xue" saw it! Li Ying's heart at this moment is not only disappointed with Li Hao, but also doesn't hold much hope for herself.
The prince grabbed Li Ying's lotus root arm, and his fingernails dug deeply into her flesh.
"Hiss... it hurts!" Li Ying bared her teeth. When encountering things, she panics and has no opinion. She really misunderstood the prince. He is not worthy of entrusting important tasks at all.
The prince hurriedly let go of his hand, with a sorry expression on his face: "Princess, I... I'm a little out of control, I'm sorry."
At this time, Li Ying had already made up her mind. If she could really overthrow the king's rule and establish another monarch, she would definitely not establish a prince, but choose someone else capable.
"Send someone now to call Li Hao to the palace to discuss what we should do next." Li Ying was really afraid that the prince would escape from the capital in extreme fear, so he comforted him, "Although we have encountered setbacks now , but the initiative is still in our hands, Concubine Xue Gui, the king, and Yan Li are still passive."
"Come on!" The prince shouted, and ordered a pawn to call Li Hao back before the battle.
But before he left, Li Hao came uninvited.
Those angry and fierce eyes, that Zheng robe still stained with blood, and that tightly clenched sword outlined the appearance of a defeated general. His gaze was still sharp, and he glanced at the faces of Li Ying and the prince. If there was a mocking expression on their faces, he would go to them and kill them. He can lose, but he absolutely does not allow others to laugh at him.
Seeing Li Hao like this, Li Ying was naturally very disappointed, her slender fingers were cold. But there was a sweet smile on her face.
"Li Hao, you've worked hard. Hurry up and do it. I'll pour you a cup of tea. Don't be surprised!"
After speaking, she poured tea for Li Hao.
Li Hao waved his hand and refused with a slightly hoarse voice: "No need, I'm here because I want to apply to the prince for something."
Li Hao looked at the prince with radiant eyes, and saw the cool breeze blowing up from the prince's back.
"Tell me, what's the matter." The prince squeezed a smile on his haggard face, but he didn't smile. And this smile is very stiff, once it shows on the face, it can't go away.
Li Haocai didn't care whether he was smiling sincerely or not: "Now we have suffered repeated setbacks. If we don't lead the army to conquer the palace immediately, then the morale will be low. After a few days, the morale of the army will be slackened, and the big thing will be gone!"
To put it bluntly, now they have no other choice but to put all their eggs in one basket and sink their boats.
The prince had completely lost his mind, and his eyes fell on Li Ying for help: "Princess, what do you think?" The voice seemed so pitiful and low, without the aura that a prince should have.
Li Ying smiled: "Li Hao is right, I totally agree! We must win a battle to boost the morale of the soldiers." She paused, then asked Li Hao, "Do you have any plans?"
Li Hao didn't seem to notice Li Ying's tenderness. What he cares about now is only one thing, and that is to kill Concubine Xue Gui, just like he killed Rong Changan back then.
A sinister gleam shot out in Li Hao's eyes: "Rather than dispersing our forces and attacking the sixteen gates of the palace, we should concentrate our forces and attack the north gate. Once the north gate is broken, the entire palace will be ours."
Li Ying squinted and pondered, with some doubts on his face: "I heard that it is Concubine Xue who is supervising the battle in the palace now, you can be sure..."
Before Li Ying finished speaking, Li Hao's eyes suddenly turned scarlet. When he stared at him suddenly, Li Ying's heart skipped a beat, almost jumping out of his throat.
Doesn't the meaning of Li Ying's words mean that Li Hao is not Xue Guifei's opponent? He is now going to prove to Li Ying that the two games that Concubine Xue won were just luck, and he will use his strength to crush Concubine Xue into meat sauce!
"If I, Li Hao, don't kill Concubine Xue, I swear I won't be a human being!"
Li Ying's eyes were deep, she had her own plan. She didn't want Li Hao to fight to the end with Concubine Xue, she wanted him to restore the Li family! Therefore, she could not let Li Hao die while attacking the North Gate.
"Li Hao, you've been supervising the battle for a whole day, and you're tired. The attack on the North Gate will be left to others..."
But Li Hao couldn't see any fatigue on his body. Li Ying's words were simply insulting him. So, before Li Ying finished speaking, he interrupted again:
"No, this operation is no small matter, I have to supervise the battle. Moreover, if someone else kills Concubine Xue, I also feel that it is a great regret!"
Li Ying: "..."
The prince wanted Li Hao to supervise the battle, because there was really no one by his side to send. Ma Yu is still on the tower of the capital, preventing Yan Li from attacking the city.
"Then, according to General Li's intention, we will mobilize the soldiers from each gate to go to the north gate and concentrate our forces to attack the north gate."
With the Prince's approval, Li Hao didn't say anything else, he cupped his fists, turned around and left, just like when he first came in.
"Li Hao, swords have no eyes, you have to be careful!" Li Ying walked to the door and said with concern.
The prince felt a little jealous in his heart, walked up to Li Ying, and glanced at the direction Li Hao left: "Why, do you like such a young man?"
A surge of anger surged into Li Ying's heart, he opened his almond eyes and stared at the prince: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Li Ying is Li Hao's aunt, and what the prince said really made her feel very sick.
The prince didn't know that there was such a relationship between them, but he asked in a strange way: "Isn't it?"
Li Ying snorted: "You're not serious!" and turned to leave the study.
"Little boy, where are you going?" the prince asked reluctantly.
"I'm sleepy and want to lie down for a while, can't I?"
What the prince got was Li Ying's angry answer.
Li Hao, who returned to the camp, couldn't wait to order his subordinates before entering the tent: "Hurry up, call all the generals to come to my tent to discuss military affairs!"
