Realizing that his retreat was cut off, Duilung Langri completely lost his composure.
"General, what should we do?"
Dunzhu was flustered and asked Duilunglangri in a panic.
"what to do?"
Duilong Langri's face turned livid, and he growled through gnashing teeth: "How should I know what to do?"
There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind!
What can they do?
There will definitely be no problem in holding on for a short period of time.
As long as they chose a suitable place to set up camp and relied on the favorable terrain to hold their ground, he believed that the enemy would suffer extremely heavy casualties if they wanted to kill off their more than 40,000 people.
But unfortunately, they have a fatal problem!
...
...
The retreat is cut off!
It is impossible for them to get food supplies!
Under such circumstances, they absolutely cannot continue to hold on.
Otherwise, their 40,000-strong army would starve to death!
In this case, there are only two paths before them!
Break out or surrender!
Dunzhu was panicking. He looked at Duilunglangri cautiously and asked tentatively, "General, how about we... surrender!"
surrender?
Although Duilong Langri had thought of this path just now, his face still became fierce after hearing Dunzhu's words.
"You want to surrender?"
Duilong Langri stared at Dunzhu intently, and his sharp gaze seemed to shoot Dunzhu into a sieve.
"General, don't you understand?"
Dunzhu resisted the urge to avoid Duilung Langri's gaze and gritted his teeth and said, "We have no other choice but to surrender or break out! But if we break out, how can we break out? Where can we break out to?"
Breakthrough can be summed up in two words.
But doing it is as difficult as climbing to the sky!
No matter which direction they break out, they will be attacked from both sides by the enemy.
Once the southern line is breached, Yun Zheng will definitely order his men to block their retreat route to the western desert.
To break out to the rear, they not only had to break through the enemy forces in the rear, but also had to break through the enemy forces that blocked their retreat routes to the various tribes in western Mo.
With the combat power of the Northern Army, it is almost impossible for them to break through these two blockades!
If they break out to the front, they will inevitably be attacked from both sides by the enemy. It would be very good if only 5,000 to 6,000 soldiers could break out of the army of more than 40,000!
What can a mere five or six thousand men do if they break into the enemy's lair?
Under the pursuit and blockade of the enemy, they were ultimately annihilated!
If we can't break out either forward or backward, then surrender is the only option left?
"Surrender may not be as easy as you think!"
Duilong Langri glared at Dunzhu, "Dagan and we have a deep grudge. It is hard to say whether the enemy is willing to accept our surrender! Even if the enemy accepts our surrender, we may not have a good life! Also, if we surrender, what will happen to our relatives?"
It is not easy to break through, but is it easy to surrender?
Don’t they need to consider how Yun Zheng will treat them after they surrender?
Don't they need to consider how their relatives will be treated after they surrender?
If they died in battle, their relatives would be rewarded.
But if they surrender, one can easily imagine what will happen to their relatives.
He certainly didn't want to die.
But sometimes, life and death are not something they can decide.
They have so much to consider!
"We can negotiate terms with Yun Zheng!"
Dunzhu said whimsically: "As long as Yun Zheng can force the leader to send our relatives here, we will..."
"Do you think it's possible?"
Duilong Langri looked at Dunzhu as if he were an idiot.
There would be no way the leader could hand over their relatives!
Yun Zheng is indeed very strong!
The impregnable defense line on the southern front was broken through by him so quickly.
However, Yun Zheng has been fighting one battle after another, isn’t he under a lot of pressure?
After this battle, Yun Zheng still had to clean up the mess of the Dayue Kingdom and had no energy to launch another expedition to the tribes in the western desert.
Under such circumstances, how could the leaders of the tribes in western Mo give their relatives to Yun Zheng?
"this……"
Dunzhu opened his mouth slightly, but was speechless for a moment. He could only curse angrily, "It's all the fault of that bastard Lou Yi! If I see this bastard again, I will tear him into pieces!"
Dunzhu greeted Lou Yi's ancestors madly in his heart.
If it weren't for that bastard Lou Yi who deliberately concealed the news of the southern line's breach, how could they have fallen into such a predicament?
Speaking of Lou Yi, Duilong Langri's eyes also showed a fierce light, "This general also wants to cut this bastard into pieces! Unfortunately, this bastard has already escaped..."
Um?
As Duilong Langri was speaking, he suddenly had an idea.
Northern barbarians?
Lou Yi could escape to the northern barbarians, so why couldn’t they?
Breaking through to the northern barbarians is definitely better than breaking through in any other direction, right?
He still has more than 40,000 troops at his disposal!
Although the conditions in the territory of the northern barbarians are harsh, there are large areas with sparse population!
If he could break out with 10,000 or 20,000 people, he could completely rely on these 10,000 or 20,000 people to establish his own power in the territory of the northern barbarians!
“Break through!”
Thinking of this, Duilong Langri no longer hesitated, "Let's break out to the northern barbarians! Now is the spring, we can slowly make our way around, and before the cold winter comes, we should be able to return to the tribe!"
"We are also going to break out in the direction of the northern barbarians?" Dunzhu was stunned, "Is this... okay?"
"Why not?"
Duilong Langri looked determined, "Lou Yi can lead his troops to escape to the northern barbarian territory, so why can't we? Remember, this is our only way to survive!"
Is that so?
Dunzhu thought silently for a while and nodded uneasily.
…
A day later, Yun Zheng led a large army to meet up with the Blood-Cloth Army.
"How did the enemy react?"
Seeing Qin Qihu and Lu Xing, Yun Zheng immediately started asking.
"The enemy didn't react much either."
Lu Xing replied: "It means changing from an offensive posture to a defensive posture..."
As he spoke, Lu Xing reported the situation in detail.
Soon after they appeared, the enemy began to move.
Through their clairvoyance they discovered that the enemy was in a defensive posture, seemingly intending to use defense as an offense.
However, due to their hasty response, the enemy did not find a good defensive position.
The terrain of the enemy's current defensive position is not very good and will not pose much of an obstacle to their attack.
"Do you still want to resist?"
Yun Zheng frowned slightly, "Does Duilong Langri think they can hold on?"
"I guess Duilong Langri is defending with a desperate mentality." Jia Yao frowned and said, "He must know that they are basically desperate, but even if they are completely wiped out, they don't want us to..."
As Jia Yao was speaking, a soldier came hurriedly to report.
"Your Highness, the enemy has sent an envoy to negotiate with us!"
negotiation?
Yun Zheng and the generals looked at each other silently.
At this time, the enemy is still negotiating with them?
In this situation, does the enemy still have the capital to negotiate?
Yun Zheng thought for a moment, then ordered: "Bring the enemy's envoy here immediately!"
He wanted to see what terms Duilunglangri wanted to negotiate!
