Qi Jing's sudden cry made all the soldiers under the tent tremble.
In their memory, they had never seen the general so panicked.
Hong Tao took a look at the situation and asked curiously: "It is highly probable that the emperor will win with the greater number against the smaller number. Why would his adoptive father think that there is fraud?"
Not only him, but also the dog-headed military advisor Wu Wanrong showed surprise, "Could it be that the general saw something from this?"
Seeing people asking, Qi Jing gave an explanation, saying: "As we all know, Goryeo and Donglu were in a military alliance. They worked together in collusion and established a mutually dependent relationship. In the previous defense battle of the capital, the Donglu army was defeated by Shao.
The prime minister's Qiongzhou elite were all wiped out. At this point, the Tatars' vitality was greatly damaged and they became more honest. However, they were not exterminated because of this."
After a pause, he continued: "In the bloody battle between Goryeo and Fusang, the sea was the main battlefield. Therefore, the Donglu Tatars, who were only good at horseback and did not know the nature of water, did not help much. And now
, when the Dafeng army approaches the city, in order to avoid the tragic situation of death and coldness, the Donglu cavalry will definitely step forward and help defend together with Goryeo. But right now, they don't even show their faces. Isn't it strange?
Isn't it contrary to common sense to send someone to send a letter to ask for peace when the ace army is left unused?"
right!
How come you forgot about Donglu?
They really didn't have the strength to fight Fuso's water battle, but they were not afraid of the ground war at all!
Although most of them are crude and ignorant, they also understand the principle of "if the skin is not there, the hair will be attached".
In this life-and-death situation, Donglu could never stand idly by and remain indifferent.
Therefore, Donglu's failure to show up is a big loophole.
Qi Jing also concluded that there was a conspiracy.
If this statement is true, the problem would be much more serious.
Goryeo's steady retreat was most likely a deliberate illusion, and its purpose was naturally to lure the enemy deeper into the country.
The so-called peace negotiation was to make Fengjun relax a little more on the basis of pride.
After that, they would suddenly launch an attack at the ambush location. Even if they couldn't kill Fengjun, they could still beat him to pieces.
Take the enemy by surprise and attack them when they are not prepared.
No one can prevent it.
Once this is true, the emperor will be in danger.
Now that a problem has arisen, how should we deal with it?
When the countermeasures were mentioned, Qi Jing couldn't help but look sad and looked depressed.
Seeing this, Hong Tao quickly asked: "Why is my adoptive father doing this?"
Qi Jing sighed: "Without him, it's just because I can't help you!"
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused an uproar.
From these words, they could clearly feel that something ominous might happen.
Regarding this matter, Qi Jing did not deliberately avoid it, but said clearly: "My Lord is in danger!"
"It's dangerous..."
"Well! If our army is within fifty miles of the emperor, then I can march quickly and rescue him in time. However, your Majesty ordered me to retreat two hundred miles to camp. Even at such a long distance, even if
Even if our army has wings, it may not be able to arrive as expected! That’s why I say that this time there is nothing we can do to help!”
Hong Tao was stunned at first, then gritted his teeth and said: "Even so, we should try our best to give it a try. What if we encounter an opportunity that we can take advantage of?"
"What my son said makes sense. People make plans and God makes things happen. Before the facts are determined, anything is possible. And we should not give up in advance."
"Please give orders from my adoptive father!"
"Okay! Send my order to the general, the three armies will assemble quickly, and then go to the rescue as quickly as possible!"
"yes!"
…
Judging from the speed of development of the situation, Qi Jing's rescue plan is indeed too late.
In fact, not only him, but also the news about Qi Yu came a step too late.
In fact, even Goryeo himself did not expect that the emperor of Dafeng was so eager to seek a battle that he was not willing to waste even half a day.
With his push, the battle situation changed like the wind and clouds in the nine heavens, taking shape with every breath.
To a certain extent, Emperor Li Hongyu did bring his military skills to the extreme.
He wanted to eat the other person in one bite without leaving any chance to breathe, showing his extraordinary youthful energy.
In short, it is a very fast march.
It wasn't until they approached a canyon in the evening that Dafeng's army was forced to slow down because of its hard work.
But at this moment, the situation suddenly changed without any warning.
Suddenly, on both sides of the dark valley, countless glowing torches suddenly lighted up. Under the light of the fire, densely packed crossbows and arrows were faintly visible, and they were already mounted on the full moon bow, ready to fire.

However, the defeated army that was chasing in front of them suddenly changed its direction and changed from running like a rat holding its head to facing the enemy head-on.
Looking behind them, there was also a large number of Donglu cavalry. It was estimated that there were 20,000 Donglu cavalry. Judging from the posture of their raiding formation, it seemed that they were planning to catch turtles in the urn.
It was only then that Li Hongyu suddenly realized something was wrong.
I am... falling into a trap!
Right now, the way forward is blocked, the way back is cut off, and there are ambushes on both sides.
You say, what should we do?
It seems that this time it is difficult to fly even with wings.
"What should I do? Tell me quickly, what should I do next?"
"Your Majesty, don't panic! With your subordinates here, we can definitely protect you and escape safely!"
The person who spoke was none other than Wang Zhifan.
He briefly assessed the strength of both sides, but suddenly discovered that his own side still had the numerical advantage.
Looking at it like this, as long as the energy can be used in one place, it is still possible to break out.
What needs to be decided now is which direction to attack.
There are cliffs on both sides, with no attachments to climb. Once eliminated, there are only two directions left.
Compared with the Donglu cavalry behind them, it seems that the Korean infantry in front is relatively easier to deal with.
"Your Majesty, we can break out from the front!"
"Everything depends on Wang Aiqing's decision, and I will not participate in it!"
"In this case, then Wei Chen has made the decision on his own!"
"Okay! Get me out of danger quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the whistle of arrows coming from far and near.
The annihilation has begun!
In order to avoid being an unexpected cannon fodder, the emperor had no choice but to dismount from his horse and walk in a huddled manner. There was no trace of the kingly demeanor in his stooped and genuflected manner.
Seeing that the enemy was powerful, San Dezi quickly whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty, if you really can't defeat us, you can surrender to protect yourself!"
"You want me to...surrender?" Li Hongyu frowned upon hearing this, and his heart became hesitant.
