    ?

    "Withdraw, the whole army retreats."

    Yuan Gai Suwen shouted and looked, his eyes were very anxious.  Many of his soldiers have already begun to retreat. At this time, if they do not evacuate quickly, the consequences will be even more disastrous.  If he fell into Du Qi's hands, then his resistance this time would be a complete joke.  Yuan Gai Suwen himself was also under the protection of soldiers, and quickly evacuated.

    Following the retreat of Goguryeo's army, Xia's army became even more ferocious, attacking like a tide, constantly crushing the past.

    For a time, Goguryeo soldiers suffered numerous casualties.

    Many Goguryeo soldiers were unable to escape and were caught up again. They threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender.

    There are countless surrenders.

    There are countless people killed.

    Xia Guo's army quickly pursued.

    The cavalry has already rushed to the forefront. These cavalry were transported across the river by warships. The gate of Daqing Pass had not been opened before, so the cavalry did not enter.  Now the battle line is moving forward, and the cavalry has entered from the closed door, rushing forward quickly.  Countless Goguryeo soldiers were beheaded by the cavalry sprinting.

    The number of those who surrendered increased sharply.

    Goguryeo's army has collapsed across the board, and can no longer stabilize the situation.

    Du Qize was still at Daqing Pass temporarily, leading the soldiers behind to detain all the Goguryeo soldiers who surrendered. After staring for an hour and a half, the chasing army came back.

    At this time, Zhu Youtian quickly counted the losses and the situation of this battle.  Now that Ma Yuan is recovering from his injuries, Zhu Youtian is responsible for most of the matters.

    Zhu Youtian quickly counted everything, and after counting everything, Zhu Youtian came to Du Qi's side and reported: "Your Majesty, I have already counted the losses. In this battle, we killed as many as six Goguryeo soldiers."  More than 1,800 people; as many as 36,000 Goguryeo soldiers were captured. There are still many Goguryeo soldiers who have already escaped. But for us, this battle has been a complete victory. Yuan Gai Suwen  The remaining troops are no longer to be feared."

    Du Qi was silent for a while.

    There were more than 40,000 people who were beheaded and captured. Although Yuan Gaisuwen evacuated with some of them, there were still many soldiers who fled.  Therefore, even if there are 20,000 people around Yuan Gai Suwen, that is already a huge number.

    Du Qi asked: "What about the number of people we lost?"

    Zhu Youtian said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the number of our casualties is less than six hundred."

    Du Qi nodded and said: "The army rested here, and then continued on their way. Our next step is to approach Pyongyang City. Especially Gao Di has already taken the path back. I believe that Gao Di will give Yuan Gai Su Wen a favor.  surprise."

    Zhu Youtian said: "The general will make arrangements immediately."

    He turned around and went down.

    A group of people rested here at Daqingguan for an hour, and then set off again.

    At this time, the speed of the journey was much slower.

    It's not like rushing on the road before.

    On the other side, the army led by Yuan Gai Suwen had already evacuated from the Daqing Pass far away, and there were no pursuers behind, so they stopped to rest at this time, but Yuan Gai Suwen looked around, his heart was already heavy.  down.

    The loss is too great.

    Although the losses have not been counted yet, Yuan Gai Suwen knew that the losses in this battle were huge just by looking at the number of people gathered.  His troops began to suffer losses from the Datong River, and then retreated to Daqing Pass.  Previously, he was concealed and killed when he evacuated at Daqingguan, so that he suffered countless losses.

    Yuan Gai Suwen ordered to count the losses.

    About a quarter of an hour later, a general came to Yuan Gai Suwen's side, with a miserable expression, and reported: "Dear Lu, in this battle, we have lost more than 56,000 people. To this day, following the great  The troops withdrawn against Lu were only over 13,000. Our losses in this battle can be regarded as huge."

    After Yuan Gai Suwen heard it, his eyes dimmed.

    More than thirteen thousand!

    He actually only had more than 13,000 people left.

    This loss is too great.

    It can be said that almost all the forces under his command were buried here at Daqing Pass.

    "Greatly against Lu, I think that the only thing we can do now is to withdraw to Pyongyang City. We are short of troops now, and it is very difficult to fight Xia Guo. First retreat to Pyongyang City, and then use Pyongyang City to resist."

    At this moment, a slightly embarrassed middle-aged man in Tsing Yi spoke.

    The man in Tsing Yi is named Cui Zhongji.

    He is under Yuan Gai Su Wen's command.?? Not particularly brilliant, but now Song Yunde was killed by the bomb.  Yuan Gai Suwen's chief military adviser was gone, so Cui Zhongji spoke.

    Yuan Gai Suwen said: "The towers of Daqing Pass are also extremely strong. The city of Pyongyang City is even stronger, but it may not be able to block Xia Guo's weapons. Because Xia Guo's weapons are really too powerful. Daqing Pass  Such a strong place was easily blown up. I am worried that even if we return to Pyongyang City, we will not be able to stop Xia Guo's weapons."

    Today's Goguryeo, which had received gunpowder from the Tang Dynasty before, can now make gunpowder by itself.

    Goguryeo has new gunpowder, and its strength has been greatly improved.  But compared to Xia Guo, the gap is still not even a little bit, so Yuan Gai Suwen still has apprehension and worry in his heart.

    Cui Zhongji thought for a while, and said: "Dear Lu, if we don't withdraw to Pyongyang City, there will be no other place to go. Because Pyongyang City is now our last hold on the city."

    Yuan Gai Suwen's heart was even more dignified.

    Sigh inwardly.

    It is really not a wise decision to go to war with Xia Guo now.

    Perhaps it was a good decision to obey Gao Jianwu early on and let Gao Baozang ask Xia Guo to surrender.  But now, it's impossible, everything can't go back to the past.

    Yuan Gai Suwen said: "Cui Zhongji, how can we resist when we retreat to Pyongyang City?"

    Cui Zhongji also fell silent for a while.

    He asked himself that he would not lose to Song Yunde in terms of talent and learning, it's just that he didn't have the opportunity of Song Yunde.  It's just that when it comes to the war with Xia Guo, Cui Zhongji finds it extremely difficult, because Xia Guo's strength is too strong, so tyrannical that it is suffocating.

    After a while, Cui Zhongji said: "To Lu, I think we have three things to do right now."

    Yuan Gai Suwen said: "Tell me and listen."

    Cui Zhongji said: "First, it is to arrange for people to go to see Du Qi of Xia State, ask Du Qi for peace, and be willing to submit to Xia State and respect Xia State as the suzerain state. The purpose of this arrangement is to delay time on the one hand, and  It is to test Du Qi's attitude."

    Yuan Gai Suwen nodded.

    Cui Zhongji's method is indeed a point that can be considered at the moment.

    ? To really surrender, Yuan Gai Suwen was unwilling, so Yuan Gai Suwen was naturally very happy to be able to delay time and test Du Qi's attitude.

    Yuan Gai Suwen said: "What about the second point?"

    Cui Zhongji said: "Secondly, unite with Silla and Baekje. In the current situation, Du Qi will definitely not be able to withdraw his troops halfway. He will definitely continue to advance. Therefore, Du Qi's intention is most likely to take down Goguryeo and Baekje.  And Silla, to unify the entire Liaodong region. Under such a premise, if we are really wiped out by Du Qi, then we will be ashamed."

    After a pause, Cui Zhongji continued: "We have been wiped out, and it is difficult for Silla and Baekje to survive alone, so the big opponent Lu immediately arranged for people to rush to the two countries, and asked the two countries to send troops to help. With Silla and Baekje  Ji's troops, so the odds of winning against Du Qi, even if Du Qi's weapons are powerful, but we are a little bit better."

    Yuan Gai Suwen also nodded after listening.

    This is an old trick.

    Yeon Gai Suwen used to look down on Silla and Baekje. Silla is a woman who is in charge of the house, and Baekje's sense of existence is not strong.  Goguryeo under Yuangai Suwen's administration has always wanted to annex Silla and Baekje.

    But now, the situation has changed drastically.

    Need to unite both sides.

    Only this has a chance.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
