Chapter 859 Desperate Situation
Early in the morning, Lou Yi left Dayue King City.
The northern route has been decided.
attack!
There are 80,000 troops on the northern front, 60,000 of which are elites, and 25,000 elite cavalry.
Moreover, the Ghost Fang began to move into the Anda Basin after last year's defeat, which directly caused their route to the north to become extremely smooth.
According to reliable information, there are less than 30,000 Beifu troops there.
The rest of the soldiers and horses all belong to Mondo and Beimu Tuo.
Neither Lou Yi nor Duilong Langri paid much attention to these two troops.
As long as they annihilate the enemy, their cavalry can march straight in without even carrying food and grass, and quickly raid the Muma Grassland by looting.
In this way, not only can the Beifu Army be severely damaged, but it can also force Yunzheng on the southern front to lead his troops to return for reinforcements.
In this way, the crisis in Oyue Kingdom was completely resolved.
If the Beifu Army can still be severely damaged in the direction of Xing'an Fort, the Beifu Army will not dare to invade again within five years.
Moreover, it is also necessary for the Moxi tribes to lose some troops.
It’s easy to ask God but hard to send Him away!
Once the Dayue Kingdom loses its troops and generals, it may not be that easy to ask the armies of the Moxi tribes to leave the territory of Dayue.
Therefore, it is necessary for the Northern Front to take the initiative!
Now, all the offensive matters have been handed over to Duilong Langri.
What he has to do is to hold the southern line and prevent the enemy from breaking through their defense line.
Just as Lou Yi was rushing towards Turtle Back City, a small group of cavalry appeared at the end of his sight.
Seeing the opponent approaching, Lou Yi's personal guards immediately put on a defensive posture.
"Dengdeng..."
Close, getting closer.
When the small group of cavalry saw Lou Yi's flag, they immediately accelerated and rushed over.
When he saw the miserable appearance of this small group of cavalry, Lou Yi's heart suddenly thumped.
Tie Tu rode his horse to a stop about three feet away from Lou Yi, dismounted with his exhausted body, and stumbled towards Lou Yi.
"Your Highness!"
Tie Tu knelt down in front of Lou Yi with a bang and cried: "Turtle Back City is lost!"
"what?"
Lou Yi felt like the world was spinning and he almost fell off his horse.
Turtle City, lost?
How could Turtleback City be lost?
He had only been away for a few days, and Turtleback City was lost?
"You...say it again!"
Lou Yi tried his best to stabilize his body, dismounted and came to Tietu, grabbed Tietu's collar, and shouted with a ferocious face: "Say it again! I'll let you say it again..."
Tie Tu's eyes turned red and he wailed: "Turtle Back City...is lost!"
lost!
It’s not that I heard wrongly.
Turtleback City is really lost!
That dizzying feeling came over again.
Lou Yi's whole body seemed to be drained of all his strength in an instant.
Lou Yi weakly let go of Tie Tu's shirt. He fell to the ground.
"Your Highness!"
Upon seeing this, the guards immediately stepped forward to help him.
"Get away! Get away from me!"
Lou Yiruo pretended to be crazy and pushed away the guard who was supporting him, and looked at Tie Tu with a ferocious expression, "How could Turtle Back City be lost? Huh? Even if there are 30,000 pigs defending the city, it is impossible for the enemy to break through it so quickly. Turtleback City!”
Tie Tu also fell to the ground, wailing as if he had lost his soul: "Your Highness, the enemy knows magic! They used thunder from the sky to blast open the city gate, and then took advantage of our unpreparedness to rush into the city..."
No one knows how their heavy city gate suddenly opened.
No one saw what the enemy used to break open the city gate.
Moreover, even if the enemy army rushes under the city gate with just a few people, it is impossible for them to carry the tools to break through.
But their strong city gate was easily broken open.
With just a "boom", their city gate was broken.
Apart from magic, they really can't think of anything else.
Listening to Tie Tu's wailing, Lou Yi's head was buzzing again.
Black magic?
Fuck the witchcraft!
If Yunzheng's people knew magic, why would they have gone there?
Wouldn't it be more convenient for them to directly use demonic magic to kill all the defenders in Turtle Back City?
At this moment, Lou Yi's mind was in chaos.
If Turtle City is lost, Iwu will soon be unable to defend it.
Not to mention the besieged Gule.
Their entire defense line collapsed!
The defense line guarded by a hundred thousand troops was breached by the enemy in less than a month!
Finished!
Completely finished!
Lou Yi felt despair in his heart and pain on his face.
If he had known this, he might as well have surrendered directly to Yun Zheng.
In that case, the Otsuki royal family can still be preserved.
No matter what happens, Daqian will give himself a title of duke or marquis.
The overwhelming grief and indignation hit Lou Yi so much that he almost couldn't breathe.
After a long time, Lou Yi asked in a trembling voice: "How many people have escaped?"
"I don't know, I estimate there are less than 3,000 people."
Tie Tu wailed: "I also fought hard to lead my army to break through. Some of the people should have been dispersed by the enemy..."
Listening to Tie Tu's words, Lou Yi's heart twitched again.
Less than three thousand people!
"Ha ha……"
Lou Yi looked up to the sky and laughed, but tears burst out from his eyes.
Thirty-three thousand troops!
Those who broke out were less than three thousand!
What the hell kind of war is this?
Hundreds of years of accumulation in the Dayue Kingdom were destroyed in an instant!
He has ambitions that several generations of princes or kings in Otsuki have not dared to have.
However, before he could even take the first step, all his ambitions were dashed.
Just when Lou Yi was immersed in the endless sense of desolation, the voice of the commander of the personal guards came to his ears: "Your Highness, let us quickly notify the army on the northern front to lead troops to return for reinforcements!"
Return support?
Lou Yi smiled miserably.
How to return support?
At this time, the army on the northern front has probably begun to march towards the enemy!
If they return for reinforcements at this time, they will inevitably be attacked by the enemy!
Moreover, the person leading the army there was Duilong Langri from the Moxi tribes!
Once Duilong Langri knew the news that the southern front had been completely defeated, he would definitely be worried that Yunzheng's troops would advance all the way to the rear of the Moxi tribes along Iwu City and repeat the scene last year.
When the time comes, Duilong Langri will definitely lead his army to retreat to the borders of the Moxi tribes and Dayue Kingdom.
In this way, they can only face the enemy forces on Yunzheng's southern and northern fronts alone!
With so few defeated troops and no morale at all, how could they possibly stop the enemy forces on both sides?
When the time comes, what he did to Qiu Chi, Duilong Langri will probably do to him too!
Yunzheng is a jackal, and the tribes in Moxi are not good birds either.
However, if the northern front does not retreat completely, Yun Zheng will inevitably make a quick surprise attack and form a pincer attack on the northern front!
With Dui Long Langri's few soldiers and horses, there is no way they can stop Yun Zheng's army!
The defeat is set!
Hopeless!
"Then...then what should we do now?"
The commander of the personal guards was completely panicked and looked at Lou Yi in despair.
How to do?
Lou Yi was also thinking about this issue.
After a long time, Lou Yi struggled to stand up, gritted his teeth and roared: "Block the news! We must not let the news of the tragic defeat on the southern front reach Duilong Langri's ears!"
We have to rush back to the royal city and have people escort the gold and silver treasures of the royal family away first!
Otherwise, once the royal city is captured, all the gold and silver treasures will fall into Yun Zheng's hands!
Even if those things sink to the bottom of the water, they will never be left to Yunzheng!
I can't hold it any longer!
Now the only choice is to let the Northern Line help them delay!
escape!
Where there is life, there is hope!
