"This subordinate greets Wangfei." In the study of Feihong Pass, a man in black knelt on one knee in front of the desk and said in a deep voice.
Ye Li looked at him indifferently and asked: "Where is Prince?"
The man in black reported: "Prince has led a million troops and is approaching Feihong Pass. They will reach Feihong Pass in two days at most. "Ye Li nodded," Does Prince have any other orders? " The man in black took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it, saying: "This is what Prince ordered this subordinate to present to Wangfei." Ye Li took the letter and read it quickly. She calmly nodded and said: "I know. You can go. "
The man in black looked at the indifferent Ye Li in front of him and hesitated. As Mo Xiuyao's trusted Shadow Guard, he intuitively felt that something was wrong with Wangfei, but he couldn't see what the problem was. He could only respectfully leave, "Wangfei, take care. This subordinate will leave." In the study, it quickly became quiet again. Ye Li looked at the letter in front of her and slightly lowered her eyes. Her lips curved into a faint smile, "Xiu Yao … have you thought about … what if Feihong Pass is breached?"
"Wangfei." Outside the door, Feng Zhiyao said in a deep voice.
"Come in."
Feng Zhiyao came in and looked at Ye Li. He hesitated for a moment and asked: "Wangfei, Prince … is he coming back?"
Ye Li nodded and said with a faint smile: "Yes, he will be back in two or three days at most."
Feng Zhiyao's face was happy, but Ye Li's expression was still indifferent. He said with some confusion: "Wangfei, Xiu Yao is coming back. Are you not happy?"
Ye Li looked up at him and asked: "Feng San, we … can we hold on until Xiu Yao comes back?" Feng Zhiyao was stunned. "Wangfei means?" Ye Li sighed softly: "A million troops … how can Lei Zhenting not know? Tomorrow … I'm afraid the Xiling Army's attack will be even more intense. "Feng Zhiyao frowned:" Will Lei Zhenting attack the city tomorrow? " Ye Li said with a faint smile: "If he can't take Feihong Pass before the army arrives, he will die. If it's you, will you fight or not? "
Feng Zhi Yao's expression gradually became serious as he asked: "What plans does Your Highness have?"
Ye Li reached out and handed over the letter in her hand. Feng Zhiyao took the letter and read it. He frowned and looked at Ye Li: "Prince asked Wangfei to leave Feihong Pass first. Wangfei seems to …" Ye Li didn't have the slightest intention to leave. Feng Zhiyao persuaded: "Since Prince has already made arrangements, Wangfei … should we leave first?" Feng Zhiyao understood Mo Xiuyao's temper. If something happened to Princess Ding, everyone would have to bear the consequences.
Ye Li looked at him faintly and said: "Leave? Where to? "
"Naturally back to Glass City." Feng Zhiyao said: "Prince will arrive soon. Wangfei will be safe as long as you leave Feihong Pass. No matter how fast Lei Zhenting is, he can't attack Glass City, right? "
"Feng San, Lei Zhenting is now like a trapped beast. Do you know … what will happen if he enters Feihong Pass? "Ye Li asked softly. Feng Zhiyao was silent. Ye Li said: "He will drag all the people in the northwest into a disaster. It's not because Lei Zhenting is cruel by nature, but because he has to. At this point, Lei Zhenting will never think of turning the tables. He will want to die together with the Mohist army. At the same time … he will also buy time for West-Hill. "
"If that's the case, then Wangfei has to leave." Ye Li was undoubtedly the most important person to attack Mo Xiuyao. Feng Zhiyao said solemnly, "Wangfei, please rest assured. As long as Feng San is still alive, he will never let the Xiling Army step into Feihong Pass. But, Wangfei, please leave Feihong Pass immediately. "Ye Li looked at Feng Zhiyao and shook her head. Feng Zhiyao frowned and said worriedly: "Wangfei! Wangfei, please think twice. If something happens to you … "
"Feng San." Ye Li looked at Feng Zhiyao and said seriously: "I won't leave. As long as there is one soldier in Feihong Pass, I will never leave before them. Today, I gave up the Qilin. I can tell myself that it was for the sake of the Feihong Pass. So now … why did I give up Feihong Pass and the soldiers stationed there? For my life, Ye Li? Feng San, in this world … there are always some things that are more important than life. "Feng Zhiyao was silent. It wasn't that he didn't understand Ye Li's thoughts. In reality, if it was any other general who planned to abandon their subordinates and the place they were stationed at on the eve of a great battle, he would only hate and despise them. But Ye Li was different. Not only was she a woman, but she was the mistress of the Prince Ding Mansion. She was the person Prince Ding valued the most. Perhaps in the eyes of the Mohist army, including Feng Zhiyao, Princess Ding was someone they needed to protect even if they had to sacrifice their lives and blood. But they did not understand that Ye Li was not only Princess Ding and Mo Xiuyao's wife and lover. She was also a soldier. Dying on the battlefield was the fate of a soldier. Abandoning a city and fleeing was something a soldier would despise and endure for the rest of their life.
Feng Zhiyao hesitated and finally asked, "Wang Fei, are you … blaming the Prince …" At the beginning, he did not know and did not feel anything. When Feng Zhiyao completely understood Mo Xiuyao's plan, Feng Zhiyao had a faint feeling that what the Prince did this time would not be approved by Wang Fei.
As a general of the Prince Ding Mansion and Mo Xiuyao's good friend, Feng Zhiyao did not think that Mo Xiuyao's decision was wrong. But at the same time, as a member of the army stationed at Feihong Pass, Feng Zhiyao knew that from the beginning, the soldiers left at Feihong Pass were destined to be sacrificed in Mo Xiuyao's eyes. This could not be blamed on Mo Xiuyao. As the highest commander of the Prince Ding Mansion and the Mohist army, his decision was correct and for the sake of the entire Prince Ding Mansion and the Mohist army. But was this fair to the soldiers who defended Feihong Pass to the death? Without a commander, the decision to kill, the decision to give up, and in a moment's thought, the life and death of countless people. So Feng Zhiyao knew that he was destined to never be a true general in this life.
Ye Li was stunned for a long time. Just when Feng Zhiyao thought that she would not answer, she smiled faintly, shook her head, and said, "No, I understand what he means."
Ye Li did not read so many strategic and commanding books in her previous life for nothing. When it was necessary to talk about these theories, she could even talk more incessantly than Mo Xiuyao, making it irrefutable. But compared with Ye Li, Mo Xiuyao was a real commander. His decision was definitely not wrong. The war, which was originally expected to last for at least a few years, would soon end under Mo Xiuyao's operation. Then the people of the entire Central Plains would be able to enjoy peace again. Even if the number of people sacrificed was calculated, under the current situation, even if all the soldiers in Feihong Pass were killed, the number of people sacrificed was much smaller than if the war continued.
But some things could be understood, but it was hard to accept. Even if it could be accepted, it was hard to do when it really happened. At least, Ye Li could not do it. When the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Mo Family were fighting a bloody battle for Feihong Pass, Ye Li could not bring herself to escape alone. Then after the war was over, she would come out to enjoy the glory and glory of the sacrifice. At the end of the day, Ye Li was still a soldier, not a politician.
