Flat set.
Jia Yao had already forced the four thousand troops to land.
When they turned back and marched towards Pingji again, the enemy troops who had previously captured Pingji quickly retreated to Hukou City.
Jia Yao received the message from Yun Zheng through Bai Falcon.
Holding the note in his hand, Jia Yao couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
This bastard!
How insidious!
He has come up with all kinds of shady tricks.
In that case, then add more fuel to the fire!
Thinking of this, Jia Yao immediately ordered Qi Qi Ge: "Tell Pang Jinjiu to come quickly and obey orders!"
...
...
"yes!"
Soon, Pang Jinjiu came forward to take orders.
"You lead three thousand light cavalry to charge into Da'an Road!"
"Remember, don't touch big cities. If you encounter small towns, fight them if you can. If you can't, pick on the weak ones!"
"Your goal is not to kill as many enemies as possible or capture as many cities as possible, but to create panic in the cities of Da'an Province and drive more people from Da'an Province to Gyeonggi Province to escape!"
"I'll give you one day to get some dry food. You'll have to figure out how to get more supplies later!"
"Also, don't spread the news that the higher-ups have sent people to hold secret talks with us too obviously..."
Jia Yao made his point short and gave orders quickly.
"yes!"
Pang Jinjiu immediately obeyed the order, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Previously, he was ordered to raid Shanghe, and has been guarding Shanghe since then. He did not participate in several battles and missed many opportunities to make meritorious service.
Now that he finally has the opportunity to make a contribution, of course he is excited.
Although Da'an Dao is a large territory, there are almost no soldiers available now.
Three thousand elite cavalry are enough to wreak havoc on Da'an Road.
After Pang Jinjiu took the order and left, Jia Yao began to think silently again.
Now, the five explosive packs that Yun Zheng gave them have not been used.
If she forced the attack regardless of casualties and used explosives to blow up the wall of Hukou, she would have a great chance of capturing Hukou with the troops she had.
However, at this moment, there is really no need to attack head-on!
It’s better to keep it for now!
Maybe it can be used later!
Just as Jia Yao lowered his head to think, he suddenly felt nauseous.
Jia Yao quickly turned his head away and retched.
However, she dry-heaved a few times but nothing came out.
But these few dry heaves made her feel a lot better.
Jia Yao subconsciously touched her belly and was unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
After a long time, Jia Yao slowly stood up and walked to the window silently, breathing the fresh air from the window. A hint of tenderness appeared on her cold and beautiful face...
…
Qiming City.
Wang Shu, who had been in a coma for several days, never woke up.
As the news of Wang Shu's death spread, the already gloomy Qiming City was shrouded in even more gloom.
Before Wang Shu died, many people were hoping that he would die soon, especially the palace maids and concubines who had suffered so much.
But when Wang Shu really took his last breath, many people were no longer happy.
Akiyama-kun was so angry that he died.
Wang Shu was basically angered to death.
They were angered to death one after another, which seemed to foreshadow the decline of this dynasty.
Wang Chi became the new emperor of the Le Dynasty as he wished, but he had no intention of arranging a funeral for Wang Shu. He simply handed the matter over to Queen Mother Zhang who had just been promoted to queen mother.
He didn't even hold a proper coronation ceremony, but just went through a simple coronation process.
What he now faces is the question of fight or surrender.
As for fighting, they have suffered heavy casualties and have not won a single victory since the enemy invaded.
Even if it's just a small victory!
Today, from top to bottom, the Le Dynasty lacks much fighting spirit.
But if it came to surrender, Wang Chi would be unwilling to do so.
If he tried his best, he could gather 30,000 armored soldiers. If he was ruthless enough, he could conscript all the young and strong men in Gyeonggi Province, and he could recruit 100,000 young and strong men to help defend the city!
According to intelligence from all sources, the enemy's combat-capable soldiers number at most 70,000 to 80,000.
They still have the strength to fight!
They only need one big win to turn the tide.
The most important point is that Gao Quan, the god of war of the Le Dynasty, has not taken any action yet!
He still held a glimmer of hope for Gao Quan, hoping that this god of war could create a miracle.
After all, no one wants to become the king of a fallen country just by sitting on the throne.
He is also ambitious!
His biggest rival, Akiyama-kun, was also angered to death.
As long as he defeated the enemy, he could go ahead and govern the Le Dynasty.
If they were given five years, they would be able to build a large army to prevent the enemy from invading again.
However, at present, there are already many voices of surrender in the court.
Although the enemy had not yet entered Gyeonggi Province, the people in the court were already in panic.
In addition, the death of the previous emperor made the entire court depressed.
In this situation, he didn't know if he still had a chance if he fought to the death.
If we win, everything will be fine.
If he lost, he didn't know whether he could save his life.
war?
Or decrease?
It was a simple question, but it put Wang Chi into an immense struggle.
"Your Majesty, Lord Cui requests an audience."
While Wang Chi was struggling, the eunuch came to report.
Wang Chi was so exhausted that he didn't even bother to say a word. He just nodded slightly.
The eunuch understood and bowed and left.
Soon, Cui Jingdao was brought in.
"Greetings..."
Before Cui Jingdao could kneel down, Wang Chi said weakly: "Forget it!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Tell me, what's the bad news?"
As soon as Wang Chi saw Cui Jingdao's face, he knew that it was not a good thing.
These days, all the bad news has made him numb.
Cui Jingdao looked gloomy and replied: "Your Majesty, I just received news that a large group of enemy cavalry has entered Gyeonggi Province..."
Wang Chi's face changed slightly, and he asked again: "What happened next? Wan'an was lost?"
This result is actually not surprising.
After Lu Andao's disastrous defeat, this became inevitable.
Now, he only cares about whether Wan'an can be held and whether Hukou has been breached by the enemy.
"not yet."
Cui Jingdao replied: "The enemy is composed of light cavalry and heavy cavalry, and they are active around Wan'an. Now the people in Wan'an are in a panic, and the surrounding people are fleeing to Qiming City..."
Listening to Cui Jingdao's words, Wang Chi should have been furious.
But now, he simply didn't have any temper at all.
"How many enemy troops are there?"
Wang Chi asked weakly.
Cui Jing said: "There should be about 6,000 to 7,000 people in total, about half of them are heavy cavalry and half are light cavalry."
“…”
Wang Chi opened his mouth slightly and remained silent for a long time.
In the end, all the words turned into a long sigh.
He had originally thought that if the enemy's numbers were small, he would let the Wan'an defenders take the opportunity to ambush the enemy and teach them a lesson, so as to prevent the enemy from being so unscrupulous.
As a result, how to ambush so many heavy cavalry and light cavalry?
Wan'an has 15,000 troops to defend it.
However, there were only a few thousand armored soldiers.
With such a small number of troops, they should be thankful that the enemy does not attack the city. Why would they ambush?
Seeing that Wang Chi was somewhat at a loss, Cui Jingdao said, "I think that Your Majesty should call together all the ministers to discuss countermeasures. If the enemy army continues to run rampant, the defenders of Wan'an will probably surrender to the enemy sooner or later..."
Wang Chi hesitated for a moment and nodded tiredly...
