Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1101 Li Yuanba is missing
Chapter 1099: Li Yuanba is missing
Even before the army to attack Hangu Pass was dispatched, Chang'an had already become undercurrents and turbulent.

After Yang Guang and Yang Jian led [-] troops straight to Hangu Pass, this made Yang Jian's rule over Guanzhong even weaker than ever, and people who were dissatisfied with Yang Jian became more active.

Although Yang Jian, who is sitting high, is also aware of this, he only thinks that this is Li Keyong's dying struggle, but he doesn't know that the real black hand behind it is actually Li Shimin, and an invisible net is quietly closing in on him.

At the same time, Yang Lin of Yewang City finally got the news that Hangu Pass had fallen.

"Hangu Pass is a mighty pass, how could it be lost so easily?"

Yang Lin's angry roar resounded throughout the hall, while the spies below were so frightened that they prostrated themselves on the ground and trembled.

"I don't dare to deceive the general. The banner at Hangu Pass has indeed become the banner of the Qin army."

This made Yang Lin even more confused. When the Qin army was divided into three groups to fight separately, Bai Qi's main force had already been nailed to the wild king by himself, so where did the Qin army get the extra troops to break through Hangu Pass so quickly? ?

Yang Lin probably never imagined that the army that broke through Hangu Pass was Zhou Yu who he let go. He thought it was just a bait for nothing, but it was indeed a deadly sword!

"With the loss of Hangu Pass, our army's food roads will be cut off, and the food and grass in Yewang City can only be enough for the army for a month at most. Alas, if the food and grass problem cannot be solved within this month, our army may collapse without a fight. Ah!" Yu Wencheng frowned.

The news of the fall of Hangu Pass made Yang Lin feel confused, but it did not cause him to completely lose his will to resist.

After pondering for a while, Yang Lin said very calmly: "Hangu Pass is not only related to our army's grain road, but also the gateway to Guanzhong. My lord will never ignore it. I will definitely send another army to take back Hangu Pass."

"However, Hangu Pass is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. General Yang Jian may not be able to capture it within a month?" Yu Wencheng said.

Although Yuwen Chengdu belongs to the Sui family, he has never called Yang Jian the lord. After all, in his eyes, the only lord is Dong Zhuo. Before, he always called Yang Jian the Sui Gong, and now he doesn't even call him the Sui Gong.

Obviously, Yu Wencheng knew that Yang Jian no longer trusted him, and his behavior of ordering Yang Lin to take away his military power also made Yu Wencheng extremely dissatisfied.

For the sake of the overall situation, Yu Wencheng will not care too much about it, but the relationship between him and Yang Jian who trusted each other before will never return to the past.

After hearing Yuwen Chengdu's words, Yang Lin's eyes were full of solemnity, and he said in a deep voice: "So we must not guard the wild king and wait for the lord to open the food road for us. Attacking Hangu Pass from both sides is the only way for the wild king's [-] troops to survive."

After Yu Wencheng pondered for a while, he frowned and said, "I'm afraid Bai Qi won't let us break through easily."

"Yes."

Yang Lin sighed, in the process of fighting with Bai Qi, he didn't even win once. Although the decisive battle has not yet started, he can even predict that Bai Qi must have set up countless traps, waiting for him Take the initiative to jump in.

"In short, sooner or later the whole army of the besieged wild king will be wiped out, and there is still a chance of taking the initiative to break through the siege, so we must turn passive into active."

After saying that, Yang Lin raised his head to pay attention to the generals, and said in a deep voice: "From today onwards, the entire army will be on the first level of alert, and all generals must stay on top of each other and be ready to break through."

"No." All the generals shouted in unison.

"By the way, where is General Yuanba?"

After Yang Lin glanced at the generals, he found that Li Yuanba was missing from the governor, so he immediately frowned and said, "Why isn't General Yuanba here?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and finally Yu Wencheng stood up and said, "I haven't been easy on Li Yuanba for two days."

Although he knew that Li Yuanba would be fine in the army, but Yang Lin had a bad premonition in his heart, and he immediately called out to the soldiers, "Hurry up and get General Yuanba here."

The soldiers left in a hurry, but returned soon after.

"General, it's not good, General Li Yuanba, he, he..."

Seeing this, Yang Lin felt even more uneasy, and hurriedly asked, "Quickly tell me, what's wrong with them?"

"He's gone."

Now it's not just Yang Lin, even Yu Wencheng can't help being dumbfounded.

How can a living person who is still alive in the midst of thousands of armies just disappear without seeing him?
"Go and check."

Yang Lin roared angrily, and the bad premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.

After all, Li Yuanba was the most powerful general in the world. No one in the world could forcefully take Li Yuanba away in the wild king city with tens of thousands of defenders without alarming anyone. However, Li Yuanba really disappeared.

Since taking Li Yuanba away by force would not be established, there is only one possibility left, and that is that Li Yuanba left by himself.

Once this conclusion was drawn, the question came up again, why did Li Yuanba leave?Who took Li Yuanba away?
Li Yuanba's status was extremely special. No one in the Liang army could command him to move him. Even Yang Lin could only coax and lie to calm Li Yuanba down.

No one in Yewang City dared to stop Li Yuanba, nor would anyone be so blind that he would stop Li Yuanba, but it was not an easy task to leave without leaving any traces.

Therefore, the person who can take Li Yuanba away without leaving any traces must be Li Yuanba's very close relatives, and he is also very good at disguising and espionage.

Li Xiuning is the only person who meets these two points, but isn't Li Xiuning imprisoned by Qin Hao?

Even if Li Xiuning escaped, if she wanted to take Li Yuanba away, she could do so in an open and aboveboard manner. Anyway, she couldn't stop her, so was it necessary to be so sneaky?
After all, Yang Lin is not a person who is good at calculations. Even if he thought about it, it is impossible for him to think that Qin Hao and his mortal enemy Li Shimin will join forces to deal with Yang Jian.

Although Yang Lin couldn't figure out the key point, he could vaguely sense one thing, that is, he might have been trapped in a huge vortex, and if he was not careful, his entire army might be wiped out.

Inside the Qin army camp.

"Report...to the chief governor, the road leading to Hangu Pass has been blocked by our army, and Yang Linjun is already a turtle in the urn."

"it is good."

A gleam flashed in Bai Qi's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "There are many roads in the direction of Chaoge. We must arrange guards to prevent Yang Lin from jumping over the wall in a hurry and joining forces with Wang Mang."

"promise."

In fact, Bai Qi also knew that Yang Lin would never break out in the direction of Wang Mang, but in order to ensure that the plan was foolproof, Bai Qi still had to be fully prepared.

First of all, the grain and grass on Wang Mang's side are not rich, even if Yang Lin meets, the grain and grass problem will still not be resolved.

Secondly, if Yang Lin wanted to reconcile with Wang Mang, he had to break through the defenses of Bai Qi and Su Lie along the way, which was far more difficult than breaking through Bai Qi alone.

Bai Qi walked out of the big tent, looked at Yewang City, and said calmly: "Yang Lin, the net has been laid for you, now it seems that you can escape."
