"In that case, once we enter the city, we can switch from an offensive to a defensive posture. It won't be so easy for those Ming soldiers to do anything to us."

Zhu Yunwen smiled smugly and said:

"Of course, you all wait here while I ride forward and have the magistrate of Baicheng open the gate."

So Zhu Yunwen quickly rode forward on his horse and then loudly proclaimed:

"I am Zhu Yunwen. Where is the magistrate of Baicheng County?"

The gates of White City were already closed. Many soldiers stood on the gate, watching the large army below.

As soon as Zhu Yunwen finished speaking, a county magistrate walked up to the city gate.

Then, looking down at Zhu Yunwen, he said:

"I am the magistrate of Baicheng County!"

Zhu Yunwen immediately smiled smugly:

"I am Zhu Yunwen. Quickly open the city gates and I will lead the army into the city."

However, after he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked closely at the magistrate on the city wall and realized that this was not the same magistrate who had contacted him earlier.

He immediately said:

"Wait...you're not the magistrate of Baicheng. Where is the magistrate of Baicheng?"

However, the magistrate of Baicheng County sneered and said:

"Zhu Yunwen, you are so clever, it's laughable. The magistrate of Baicheng, Li, who was in contact with you in secret, is now in jail."

I am now the magistrate of Baicheng. Your schemes and plots have all failed.

As soon as he finished speaking, the magistrate waved his hand, and suddenly a group of soldiers carrying muskets and light cannons appeared on the building.

At the same time, the new county magistrate spoke up:

"His Highness the Crown Prince was here before, and he already knew that you had colluded with the former magistrate. He had already replaced the magistrate here and set up a trap here."

"This was all so that when you attack the Ming Dynasty, we could lure you into a trap. Now you're truly trapped in such a deadly situation; one can only say that His Highness the Crown Prince was wise."

Zhu Yunwen's expression changed drastically, and he realized that his previous plans and conspiracies had long been exposed.

He immediately said to the Princess of Dongdao and the King of Goryeo:

"The situation is not right... retreat to another location..."

However, just as he finished speaking, Fu Youde, who was not far behind him, led his pursuers to block the remaining 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers of the two countries' allied forces at the gate of Baicheng.

Now, Zhu Yunwen, the King of Goryeo, and the Princess of Dongdao were all in utter despair.

They were indeed besieged.
