Chapter 182: Survival

"Now we can't spread the news of the capital. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" After a long time, Li You said slowly, "This matter can only be clear to us in our hearts for now, and we must not play Your Majesty." ā€

Why is that? Yang Jiefu and others collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and they should be beheaded all over the house. Qiu Shangjian also came over at this time, and he had just suffered the pain of losing his father, and he hated Yang Jiefu and others so much that he gritted his teeth.

"Now that the former army has been wiped out, all the patriarchs have died in national disaster, and most of the generals in the army have lost most of them, it is the time when the dragons have no leader and the army is panicking, if they know that those civilian officials in Beijing have sold us at this time, I am afraid that the whole army will collapse without Tang Kuo's troops fighting." Li You's words made everyone shudder, "And to say something disrespectful, our majesty doesn't seem to be some unborn Ming Jun, presumably after hearing about the fiasco of the former army, he will panic, if he knows the plans of Yang Jiefu and others, he will definitely be in chaos, and I don't know what will happen, so this matter must be hidden from him first, and after he escapes, he will be told the truth of the matter." ā€

"This time it's my father, and they're reckless." Qiu Shangjian is also sober now, "If it weren't for being pressed by the family and the Hanmen for too long, my father would not have agreed to the matter of the imperial conquest, if the army was led by a general, and my father assisted His Majesty to sit in the capital, Yang Jiefu and others would not be so easy to conspire." ā€

"Hey, after this battle, the essence of my noble family has been lost, and I will no longer be able to compete with them in the court, even if we can escape this catastrophe, the future will not be easy." Qian Hua said with a calm face, just the former army, the honorable generals of the Great Wei Dynasty lost one-third, and their strength was greatly damaged, especially the death of the British Gongqiu Yuande made the honorable lose their own leaders, and from then on, no one has the qualifications and prestige to unite the nobles together to compete with the family and the Hanmen, it can be expected that after this battle, the honorable family of the imperial court will be suppressed by Yang Jiefu and others, and they have little power to resist.

"It's a bit too early to think about this now, let's think about how to deal with the upcoming Tang Kuo army, right?" Li You turned the topic on the right track, "The most important thing now is to save the life of our majesty, if he lives, we will still have a glimmer of life, if your majesty returns to heaven or falls into the hands of Tang Kuobu, then the loss of the lord's guilt is enough for Yang Jiefu and others to put us and the death penalty." ā€

Hearing this, Wang Ji immediately got up and walked to the map to check it intently, "The place where the former army was destroyed is not far from here, and with the marching speed of Tang Kuo's army, we can reach here in five days at most, and now we are camping in the wilderness and there is no danger to defend, and there is a lack of food and grass in the army, so we have to find a city to defend the city." ā€

He didn't say any nonsense about winning a decisive battle in a field battle, with the morale of the Great Wei Forbidden Army now, coupled with the lack of the commanders of this group of generals, fighting a field battle with Tang Kuo's troops can only be sent to death, and everyone understands this.

"So let's see which one is the closest city to the army?" Qian Hua, Qiu Shangjian and others also came to the map and studied it carefully with Wang Ji, while Li You secretly prayed in his heart that Yao Guangxiao had returned to the capital safely now and started his own plan.

At the same time, Li Gui in the imperial camp also received this bad news, and Wei Shiliang lay on the ground and trembled and reported to him the news like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, "...... More than 20 British nobles and generals died in this battle, and Tang Kuo's troops suffered few losses, and now they have attacked the Chinese army......"

"How so? How so? Li Gui's face was suddenly pale, he sat on the chair and muttered to himself, according to his expectations, wherever the army goes, those barbarians in the Tang Kuo Department will definitely collapse into an army, and easily let themselves get a big victory, Taizu and Taizong Wasn't that the case back then? But he didn't expect to lose 100,000 soldiers and horses in the first battle, and even the British Gongqiu Yuande, who took him to the front army to inspect the military situation, died.

"Your Majesty, now that the army of Tang Kuo's army has come towards us, we have to plan ahead of time on how to deal with it." Wei Shiliang was also bitter in his heart at this time, the first person to instigate the emperor to drive the expedition was himself, even if His Majesty didn't kill him now, the Queen Mother and the civil and military officials who returned to the capital would just let him go.

I regret that I shouldn't have listened to Wei Zhen's words in the first place, thinking of this, Wei Shi's conscience suddenly swelled with an ominous premonition, Wei Zhen's kid didn't seem to have appeared all day, did he already expect such an end?

What he didn't know was that his godson Wei Zhen had been buried in an ancient well at this time, and would never appear in front of anyone again.

"Quick, quickly gather all the generals and return to the capital." Li Gyu, who was frightened, woke up from the shock and said in a trembling voice.

"Your Majesty, now the army is already panicking, if you withdraw the army rashly, you will not be able to escape the pursuit of Tang Kuo's troops." Even though Wei Shiliang had a bit of a brain, he hurriedly persuaded, "Your Majesty should still convene the generals of the Chinese army to discuss and make a decision now, right?" ā€

"Okay, well, go and ask Shun Changbo Chen Yu...... Jiazhou Bo Li You, Zhenwu battalion commander Qian Hua ...... and others to the imperial camp to discuss matters. Like a drowning man, he grabbed a straw and hurriedly called out a string of names.

Wei Shiliang took the opportunity to escape from Li Gui, and hurriedly ordered his cronies to hurry up and go to the camps to call people, while he paced back and forth at the gate of the imperial camp, waiting for these people to arrive.

Chen Yu, Li You and the others came quickly, all with solemn faces, and they didn't care about greeting Wei Shiliang and went directly into the imperial camp, Li Gui saw them and quickly stopped them from saluting, and asked repeatedly, "Everyone, now that the front army has been lost, what should we do?" ā€

Chen Yu's eyes flickered, and he stopped talking, he had already guessed something from what he had encountered during this time, but thinking that this was not the time to say this, so he changed his words, "Your Majesty, there is not much food in the camp now, and the army is discouraged, whether it is to defend the base or face the enemy head-on. ā€

"Then, let's go back to the capital?" Lee Gyu wanted to run away again.

Think about what heroic characters Taizu and Taizong were back then, how could there be such an unscrupulous descendant as you? Chen Yu had such a disrespectful thought in his heart.

"Your Majesty, no." Li You stood up with a sigh, repeated the reasons Wei Shiliang had just said, and finally said, "Now the only way to find a nearby city base is to defend it, and wait for the rear army to come and join forces to repel Tang Kuo's troops." ā€

"Oh?" Li Gyu had a good impression of this young general with outstanding archery skills, and the idea sounded like a good one, so he asked, "To that city?" (To be continued.) )
