Chapter 770 Five-Day Dynasty
~Date: ~November 01~
The scorching sun is in the sky, and it is noon.//
Li Mi was proud of her heart, watching the countless soldiers and horses under her command rush towards the more than 10,000 Hebei troops trapped in the middle like a tide, and she felt indescribable. Just before today, who would have thought that Li Mi could still turn over? But as long as today passed, Li Mi would let everyone in the world know that the overlord of the Central Plains had not sink.
Just as he was happy and proud, he suddenly saw a sound of horse hooves behind him, and a group of people rushed towards him in a flash of smoke and dust. In a moment, he had already rushed to his eyes. Li Mi looked at him and saw that the soldier and horse that was abandoned and his incomparable armor was actually Shan Xiongxin who was left in Gong County.
Li Mi said angrily: "What happened? You actually fled here in such a panic?"
Shan Xiongxin was out of breath, and finally stopped to breathe evenly, saying, "The big thing is wrong. Our camp beside the Luoshui River has been broken by Li Jing. Depending on the situation, Mao Gong who stayed in the camp has surrendered."
"Then why didn't you surrender with him, but why did you still run here?" Li Mi heard that Xu Shiji surrendered and his face turned pale. Although Luoshui's camp was only tens of thousands of elderly and disabled, Luoshui's camp was broken so quickly, and Li Jing was not far from them. Li Mi, who was originally counting on Shan Xiongxin to defend Gong County and block Luokou Cang City for them, at least wait until he solves Chen Kefu.
Shan Xiongxin was extremely embarrassed. When he heard Li Mi's words, he couldn't help but look at Li Mi angrily, gritting his teeth, and restraining himself tightly, so he did not express the anger in his heart.
"The King of Wei only left me three thousand soldiers to guard Gong County. Gong County was already in ruins. Maogong suddenly surrendered to Chen. We had no time to react. The Hebei Army's firearms are so powerful that the King of Wei is not unaware of how our 3 thousand soldiers and horses can resist Li Jing's soldiers? The last general broke through the siege and rushed to report to him. Li Jing was behind and was about to arrive. The King of Wei would have made plans early." Shan Xiongxin said coldly, and saying these words made him feel very happy.
Before he finished speaking, Huangfu Xiren led hundreds of remnants to arrive in a hurry.
Li Mi was shocked: "General Huangfu, why did you come here? Where is the Black Stone Camp?"
Huangfu Xiren said with a dark face: "As soon as you chased Cheng Yaojin and the others in the morning, Chen Pojun led a cavalry to come. He set fire to our camp before we could defend, and ran away like a wind. The general was unable to catch up with him, and he thought that the camp was related to our army's retreat. // He then collected the troops and organized the camp. He had already packed up the camp again, but Li Jing suddenly led the army to attack, and although the brothers fought to the death, Li Jing's troops were extremely fierce, and after only half an hour of fighting, the brothers were already ashamed. Now Li Jing is leading his troops to attack here, and the King of Wei is careful."
As the few people were talking, Wang Xuanying came with dozens of people riding horses and shouting: "I heard that Luoshui Camp and Gongxian have both been lost?"
Li Mi said with a dark face: "The latest news is that the Black Stone Camp has also been lost. Li Jing has led his troops to pursue him, and he is only a moment away from us."
At this time, even Li Mi had no idea. Li Jing's troops were so fast that he even broke into Luoshui Camp, Gong County, and Heishi Camp. Below, there was no city or village in front of them to stop Li Jing for a moment.
"Your Majesty, King of Wei, Li Jing will arrive soon, but Chen Kefu is difficult for us to take it down for a while. If it is to be broken, we should not hesitate at this time. Let's retreat the green mountains are there, and we are not afraid of no firewood. As long as we have the troops in our hands, we will have a chance to make a comeback." Dou Hongxin calmly said to Wang Xuanying and Li Mi.
"No!" Li Mi shouted, and a angrily sword pierced into the ground. "Just give Gu two more hours, no. If Gu one more hour, Gu can capture Chen Pojun alive. Such a great opportunity, how can he lose his fortune? No, once we miss this opportunity, we will never have another chance."
Wang Xuanying looked back and looked around. The Zheng army around him didn't know that Li Jing was about to arrive at this time. The Zheng army soldiers were excitedly launching a thrust attack on the surrounding Hebei army, and the opportunity to capture Chen Pojun alive was right in front of him. It completely aroused the bravery of the soldiers. However, although Zheng army was appointed as the official and was tempted by the beauty of money, they were still far inferior to the Hebei army in the surrounding area.
Looking at the tragic fight below, Wang Xuanying calculated in his heart. Not to mention an hour, even if he really gave Li Mi two hours, they would not be able to take Chen Kefu. With the strength of the Hebei army, it would be difficult for them to annihilate this army of beasts fighting to the death before dark.
Wang Xuanying sighed to the sky, God will not bless me.
"Who expected that the Hebei army was so deceitful, Chen Pojun actually used his body as bait. Now he lost many soldiers and horses, and broke several generals. The soldiers and horses were trapped here, and they could not advance or retreat. It was my carelessness, so I was so careless now. Now I am in a mess, so what should I do?"
Dou Hong said in a line: "For the current plan, we can only put the death to survive. We immediately withdraw our troops and go north. As long as we pass through the Hulao, we are expected to meet with my father. King Xia still has more than 200,000 troops. As long as we meet, we can fight back to Yecheng and other counties, and then cross Taihang, break into Hedong, and steal the danger of Hedong. It is fundamental. If it really doesn't work, we can also go north and retreat into the northern monastery grassland, rest and rest in order to get up again. If Your Majesty and the King of Wei have passed by me, I am willing to take a step first and contact my father. Let my father lead the army south to respond!"
Wang Xuanying remained silent, and Li Mi said on the side: "Although this plan is dangerous, there is a glimmer of life. If we don't go north and go south, we can only be chased by Chen Pojun's tail, and there is no possibility of recurrence. Queen Dou said it well, let's just jump into Chen Pojun's belly and make a big fuss. Even if we die, we will die vigorously."
Li Mi asked the generals, and they were silent. After asking again, everyone could only say: "In today's battle, Luoshui camp was lost, Gong County was lost, Heishi Camp lost countless soldiers and horses, and the general Xu Shiji surrendered, General Xie Ying landed, Zhang Sheng, Zhao Junde and others died in battle. Now, the generals have no ambition to defend and have no desire to die. We still have 60,000 soldiers and 70,000 soldiers, but the soldiers have not heard the news of defeat everywhere. If they know all this again, they are afraid that the soldiers in the army will start to flee. In this case, it is hard to say whether they can maintain this army and go north to enter the Hebei army's encirclement? I am afraid that the soldiers will be unable to follow this matter. Haven't the King of Wei thought about it? What should we do if we really do that?"
Li Mi couldn't help but burst into tears and remained silent after hearing this.
Wang Xuanying on the other side also had a heavy expression: "I rely on the work of all the lords, combined with the power of the generals, and gathered the power of the soldiers to ascend to the turf of the army. Unexpectedly, after only five days of becoming emperor, he was already facing such a situation. Unexpectedly, in today's battle, the soldiers and generals were damaged and the relatives were betrayed. If you want to defend, there is no one, and you want to return to the ground. What's the use of this six-foot body?" After saying that, he drew his sword and wanted to commit suicide.
Wang Xuanying's brother Wang Xuanshu hugged him and cried bitterly: "Brother, we have gone through so many hardships, inherited our father's will, and worked hard all the way to achieve today. Now that we have failed for a while, how can we know that we cannot revive? Why do we have such a short opinion? If my father found out in the nine springs, how could he feel at ease?"
The two cried in a mess, and the generals on the side felt sad. Xuanying choked for a long time and finally said, "Stop! I, Wang Xuanying, have lost today, have no choice but to do anything, and have no way to go. Li Yang is impossible to leave. If the generals still believe me, it is better to go south and join Nanchen together. You will not lose a wealth at that time!"
The members of the Wang family also said they were willing to follow and seek refuge in Nanchen, and Huangfu Xiren had no objection. However, Li Mi was silent for a long time and finally nodded in agreement to go south.
Wang Xuanying pulled Dou Hongxian's hand and said, "It's a pity that I have let down my expectations. After you marry me that day, I will eliminate my troops to go north and relieve the danger of Lingzun. However, I cannot guarantee myself today and let down your expectations. Now I will go south and surrender Chen. If you are willing to go with me, I will not treat you badly. If you don't want to go with me, I will not blame you. If you want to go with me, I am willing to return you a divorce letter, and everything depends on you."
Dou Hongxian saw that Wang Xuanying, Li Mi and others had already made up their minds to go south, and it was probably useless to persuade him. At this time, he felt sad that the rabbit died and the fox was tragic. As Wang Xuanying said, the reason why she married Wang Xuanying to be his queen was entirely for the two families to unite and let Wang Xuanying go north to rescue the Xia army and her father. But now Wang Xuanying is unable to protect herself, and the original covenant naturally has no effect.
Looking at the disheartened and miserable people at this time, Dou Hongxing couldn't help but think of his father □ Xuanying and others who were far away in Li Yang, when Chen Pojun was in Zhongyuan without any restraints and entanglement. He could send all his troops to deal with his father with peace of mind. At that time, how could his father and the others escape this disaster?
Dou Hongxing smiled and said, "It's not that Wu Wuru, but that's because he is worried about Ji Jun's father and brothers. I won't have any objections to my husband. Let's separate. If we have a fate in this life, we will definitely meet again in the future. Hongxing will say goodbye!" After saying that, Dou Hongxing no longer paid attention to everyone, turned over and called dozens of guards brought from Hebei around him, and left the north.
