The five million-strong army defending the city could not even hold it for a day. Instead, they were defeated and fled in panic, and were directly breached by the Qin Dynasty.
Two million died in the battle.
To say they died in battle is a nice word, it was a complete massacre.
"His Majesty!"
Luo Xiu looked anxious when he saw His Majesty vomiting blood.
"I was incompetent and failed to defend Snow Dragon Pass. I am guilty and deserve death!"
Luo Xiu was grief-stricken.
"I'm fine."
The Emperor of Dafeng calmed down and said, "This has nothing to do with you. If you hadn't responded to the situation, you would have died under the butcher knife of the Qin army. You have preserved the strength of Dafeng."
What can he do?
Could it be that Luo Xiu was killed?
This is also impossible.
This is not because Luo Xiu is incompetent, but because Daqin is too strong. They were all deceived by Daqin. They showed weakness before, but suddenly burst out with the strongest strength.
Not only him, but the entire six countries failed to react.
But he cannot act rashly. As an emperor, he must come up with a strategy.
"Without Xuelong Pass, the capital's defenses are completely gone. The Qin army will be able to reach the capital in a few days!"
The Emperor of Dafeng was worthy of being called a heroic ruler. He said, "For six hundred years, this capital has been impregnable. It is the last stronghold of the nation, even stronger than the Snow Dragon Pass. I cannot retreat. I must defend this capital to the death. If it falls, I will have nowhere else to go!"
"Your Majesty, please give your orders!" Luo Xiu said.
"Although we are facing a crisis of national destruction, it is not the last moment yet. Tell the five nations quickly that their idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight is shattered. Qin is the tiger. If Dafeng falls, they will be the next. If the lips and teeth are gone, they will be cold. They are not stupid and know what to do."
Emperor Dafeng walked out of the palace and stood at the highest point of the capital.
Faintly, one can seem to see the black military flag with the word Qin on it, like a symbol of death.
"I will fight to the death in the capital to protect the last gate of the country!"
After saying this, he was silent for a while, then said, "Let the prince come to see me. I have something to tell him."
