"Peace talks?"
"Haha, they think I'm Emperor Yang of Sui?
"Send the order down and kill the Korean envoy."
Hearing this, Lu Ping sneered and gave the order.
After hearing Lu Ping's words, the soldier who delivered the message was stunned for a moment before leaving.
"My lord... General Huo has sent news that the Japanese pirates have been completely wiped out!"
Not long after, another messenger came to report.
Hearing this, Lu Ping was overjoyed.
Huo Qubing did not disappoint him.
"Alright, keep attacking the city! I want to see how long they can hold out!"
Lu Ping said excitedly.
"My lord, since General Huo has completely wiped out the Japanese pirates, Kaesong can be captured immediately."
"In my opinion, my lord, you can order General Huo not to return but to march south immediately."
"In this way, our army's advance speed will inevitably be accelerated."
Yue Fei reminded.
"Hmm, that's a good idea. Pass on my order and have Huo Qubing march south immediately."
Lu Ping laughed.
“Here!”
Soon, Lu Ping's order was passed on.
At this moment, on the city wall where the city gate is opened.
"It's over. It's completely over."
Yi Zhiwende sat on the ground with a look of despair, muttering.
He originally hoped that reinforcements would arrive to break the deadlock.
Instead of reinforcements arriving, they received the news that all the reinforcements had been wiped out.
Toshihiko Harada actually lost.
At this moment, the enemy has already entered the city.
At this moment, Yizhi Wende felt desperate.
"General, the enemy is unstoppable. Retreat immediately."
"If I hesitate any longer, I'm afraid I'll be trapped in it."
At this moment, the deputy general guarding the city came hurriedly and said in a panic.
"well!"
"Okay, go organize it right away, and we'll retreat quickly."
Yizhi Wende sighed.
Staying here would mean certain death. The only way to survive was to evacuate the city as quickly as possible.
Goryeo has not yet perished, he still has a chance.
"yes!"
The deputy general hurriedly agreed and then left in a hurry.
Yizhi Wende tidied up his appearance and walked down the city wall with his personal guards.
Soon, under the cover of his deputy general and personal soldiers, Yizhi Wende successfully left the city and fled to the south.
With Yizhi Wende's escape, the defenders naturally lost their will to fight.
Either surrender or abandon the city and flee.
Lu Ping continued his usual policy and killed all the prisoners without leaving a single one.
As for those who escaped, Lu Ping did not let them go, but sent Mu Guiying to lead 5,000 light cavalry to continue chasing them.
Soon, Lu Ping led a large army into Kaesong.
After entering the city, Lu Ping immediately ordered martial law throughout the city and launched a large-scale manhunt.
All adult men in the city were killed to prevent future troubles.
For a time, Kaesong was a river of blood.
On the second day, Lu Ping left two thousand defenders in the city and the army set out again.
In order to further speed up the advance, Lu Ping simply divided the army into two routes.
One group was led by him personally, and the other group was led by Bai Qi.
The two armies advanced in parallel, heading straight for southern Goryeo.
All the cities along the way were destroyed without exception, and the people of Goryeo fled in all directions.
At the same time, Huo Qubing also led his army to sweep across the east.
In just over ten days, only Busan City at the southernmost tip of the entire Korean Peninsula remained.
At this moment, a large number of Goryeo refugees had gathered in Busan.
Among them were the Goryeo royal family who had fled here earlier, and Eulji Mundeok.
Outside the city, the army led by Huo Qubing had arrived first.
In the city, the Goryeo royal family and ministers were already in a panic.
"My dear ministers, what should we do now?"
Goryeo King Eulji Nobuoong said anxiously.
"Your Majesty, I think we should surrender immediately."
The Prime Minister of Goryeo said.
"What? You're going to surrender?"
Upon hearing the prime minister's words, Yizhi Wende immediately became furious.
"Yes, only surrender can save the royal family."
"Otherwise, what do you say we should do?"
"There are only 5,000 soldiers in Busan now. How can we defend it?"
The Prime Minister said righteously.
"Yeah, if it doesn't work, just surrender."
“.......”
Hearing the Prime Minister's words, the rest of the Goryeo royal family echoed him.
After all, although surrender is shameful, it is better than death.
"You are outrageous! You are a bunch of cowards."
Yizhi Wende pointed at everyone and cursed angrily.
"Shut up, everyone, and let me think about it."
Yi Zhixinxiong said in a deep voice that he certainly did not want to surrender, but he had to find a way.
"Father, I think we can escape to the sea first, and then make a long-term plan."
At this time, Yizhi Xinyang proposed.
“Nonsense!”
"How could you possibly think of escaping to the sea?"
"If this is the case, I would rather die in battle."
Upon hearing this, Yizhi Xinxiong cursed angrily.
"Then what do you say, father?"
"If we stay here, we will die." Yizhi Xinyang lamented.
Just as everyone was still discussing, there was suddenly a burst of shouting and killing outside the hall.
"Your Majesty, this is bad. The enemy has already reached the city wall."
Immediately afterwards, a deputy general came running in panic to report.
"What?!"
"Impossible, what do our defenders do for a living?"
Eulji Shinyang roared in disbelief.
"Your Majesty, it's true. They are coming to kill us. Run away!"
The deputy general said anxiously.
Upon hearing this, Yizhi Xinyang suddenly felt cold all over.
"Hahaha, you want to run?"
