The city of Momi was broken.

On the first day that Heichi Changzhi took over as commander, he committed suicide on the top of Momi City.

This incident caused an uproar in Goguryeo.

The defeat of Momi City was so rapid that the defenders of Momi City could not even organize an effective defense and were in great chaos.

Especially the high-ranking officials and nobles in Maruti were greatly shocked when they heard the news, and were immediately terrified.

Is the end of the world coming?

Hei Chi Changzhi committed suicide, Yi Sun-sin had just been recalled, there was no commander at the front, and the defense was in chaos.

Soon, news that shocked Goguryeo came again.

Wei Qing led his troops in pursuit, and in just two days, he captured Liangcheng and Heshenggucheng, and was only one step away from their capital of Goguryeo.

In the north, Chen Dao captured Cangyan and formed a pincer attack with Heshenggu City. In the south, Zuo Xi led his troops to attack Pyongyang. The lord of Pyongyang surrendered the city, and the retreat route of the southern peninsula was completely cut off.

Pressed by three parties, Goguryeo was in dire straits.

"Why is this so?"

Inside Maruto, Li Chengxian pointed at the noses of many generals and cursed them.

The Lee Group spent a huge amount of money to control the South Korean server of "Dynasty".

Once Goguryeo was destroyed, they would suffer heavy losses.

"How about we ask for peace from Daxia?" The King of Goguryeo said hesitantly in the palace.

"It's impossible to ask for peace. The Great Xia Empire will not agree." Li Chengxian refused.

This is a system-wide national war. Destroying the country will bring a lot of military merits and rewards. Lin Han cannot give up such a good opportunity.

While everyone was at a loss, the palace guards reported that Lee Sun-sin was summoned.

Upon hearing this news, everyone in the field felt hopeful.

They cursed Heichi Changzhi for his incompetence, saying that he lost Momi City after only one day of taking over and allowed the Daxia army to march straight in.

Now only Yi Sun-sin is left.

Although the front lines suffered repeated defeats, Wei Qing did not dare to attack Momi City, which was defended by Yi Sun-sin.

The only hope now lies in Lee Sun-sin.

As long as Lee Sun-sin can resist Wei Qing's offensive, Goguryeo still has hope. Now they have no way out.

"General Li, can you resist the troops of the Great Xia Empire?" The King of Goguryeo wanted to grasp at straws.

Li Shunchen stood still in the palace, hesitating for a moment, not daring to give a definite answer.

He learned about the defeat of Momi City as soon as he returned to Marudu.

The commander of the Great Xia Empire was very good at seizing opportunities. He attacked when they changed commanders. Heichi Changzhi was not familiar with the defense and commander of Momi City, so Momi City was defeated in one blow.

Now a chain reaction has formed. In just two days, Liangcheng and Heshenggucheng were lost one after another. The entire Goguryeo people were in panic and almost in despair.

"The Great Xia army is coming in full force, and the battle is ready." Li Sun-sin shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Now in Goguryeo, the people have no desire to fight, and I am afraid it will be difficult to resist."

As soon as he finished speaking, the King of Goguryeo slumped down on the throne in the hall, his eyes dull.

Li Chengxian's face was so black that it looked like black water could be squeezed out.

All the civil and military officials in the court were dejected.

The palace was filled with an atmosphere of despair.

"We surrendered to Daxia, wrote a letter of surrender and became their vassal state." The King of Goguryeo said anxiously.

"No." Li Chengxian refused: "We cannot surrender to Daxia."

"Why?" The Goguryeo King was puzzled. "Does the wise king still have a way to deal with the Great Xia Empire?"

"have!"

Li Chengxian gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Send an assassin to the Daxia military camp. If they can successfully kill Wei Qing, the Daxia army will fall without a fight."

"But assassinating an enemy general will anger the Great Xia Empire, and they won't let us go."

"Will the Great Xia Empire let us go now?"

Li Chengxian had a cold face.

This is a game, and they must not surrender, otherwise all their investment will be in vain.

"You want to surrender too?" Li Chengxian looked around and his eyes fell on Li Sunchen.

Now the king is just a puppet, and he is the real king. For the sake of fame, he is not willing to usurp the throne for the time being.

"This..." All the officials looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Li Shunchen.

"Of course we have to fight." Li Shunchen looked at Li Chengxian and said firmly.

"good."

Li Chengxian nodded with satisfaction.

…

"Report, Huo Qubing's troops are nowhere to be found. They are heading north and have entered the desert. We can't catch them."

The spies came back to report.

Tolui looked at the vast desert with a bad expression.

They sent 200,000 cavalrymen to hunt down Huo Qubing and transferred one-third of the grassland cavalry.

But now there is nothing we can do about Huo Qubing.

As people of the grassland, they know the horror of the desert. They may get lost in it at any time, and have to face sandstorms, quicksand, high and low temperature differences between day and night, lack of supplies, and unknown crises beneath the sand.

Entering the desert without understanding the environment is no different from death.

They were familiar with the desert and did not dare to go deep into it easily.

When Tolui was hesitating whether to continue sending troops to chase Huo Qubing, a messenger ran over anxiously.

"Lord Tolui, Lord Ogedei has sent an urgent order to gather all troops and rush back to Khalkhorum."

"Why?" Tolui asked solemnly.

He knew his third brother's character and would never give such an order easily unless it was a serious matter.

"News came back from the front line. The Khan and Lord Subuchi were killed in battle, and the grassland cavalry was completely wiped out." The messenger said with a sad face.

After he finished speaking, Tolui's expression changed drastically and his body began to tremble.

His father and eldest brother died in battle, and he couldn't imagine what would happen next.

"Send the order, retreat."

Tuo Lei withdrew his troops without hesitation and no longer wanted to pursue Huo Qubing.

Their father and elder brother died in battle, and the grassland cavalry heading to the front were completely wiped out. They were in danger of death.
