The next day, early morning.
Early in the morning, Du Qi had already gathered the army in his camp. With Du Qi's order, the mighty army set off with Du Qi, heading in the direction of the Silla and Baekje armies. After the army had traveled a distance, Gao Di had already brought Yeon Gaesomun out to meet up with Du Qi.
Last night, Gao Di had already arranged for the army to set off for the agreed location.
Now, Gao Di only needed to follow Du Qi.
Gao Di came to Du Qi's side and said, "Your Majesty, is it difficult for us to attack the Silla and Baekje armies because we did not set up any traps?"
He was still a little worried.
If the Silla and Baekje armies wanted to enter Pyongyang, then Gao Di could ambush them. However, the other party had been stationed outside the city and had not even sent anyone to contact him. It would be even more difficult to deal with Silla and Baekje.
Du Qi said solemnly, "Gao Di, don't worry. There's no need to worry about the difficulty. In this battle, the Silla and Baekje armies will definitely lose. Just watch. "
Gao Di nodded and did not say anything else.
He had already said what he needed to say, so there was no need to repeat himself.
Du Qi did not say anything else and continued forward with the army. At this moment, Yeon Gaesomun requested an audience. Du Qi ordered the soldiers to bring Yeon Gaesomun over. Looking at the somewhat dispirited Yeon Gaesomun, he waited quietly.
Yeon Gaesomun had been imprisoned by Gao Di for a period of time. In a short period of time, Yeon Gaesomun had become much thinner. Currently, his eye sockets were sunken and bloodshot. His forehead was even protruding, giving off a terrifying feeling.
Yeon Gaesomun stared at Du Qi and said, "Du Qi, you've set up such a huge trap. It's impossible for you to directly defeat the Silla and Baekje armies. Silla and Baekje are not easy to deal with. "
In the past, Yeon Gaesomun thought highly of himself. When he was young, he had followed his father, Yeon Taizuo, to contend against the Great Sui. Thus, even when facing Du Qi, Yeon Gaesomun still wanted to fight.
Alas, reality had completely crushed Yeon Gaesomun. He had not been able to deal any damage to Du Qi before falling into Du Qi's hands, and he had been tricked by Du Qi from start to finish.
He was not convinced.
He felt even more indignant.
Therefore, he glared at Du Qi with intense hatred in his eyes.
Du Qi chuckled. "Yeon Gaesomun, you wanted to see Us just to say this?"
Yeon Gaesomun was stunned.
He didn't expect Du Qi's reply to be like this.
Yeon Gaesomun said, "Du Qi, aren't you afraid of suffering a crushing defeat when you meet Silla and Baekje? At that time, everything you've done will be for naught. Will you spit out everything you've obtained? "
Du Qi said, "In the past, you believed that you could stop my Xia Xia. Now, Silla and Baekje also believe that they can stop my Xia Xia. In reality, that is impossible. As for being defeated, that is impossible. Yeon Gaesomun, you think too highly of yourself. Alright, cut the crap. Since you don't have anything else to say, you can leave now. "
The soldier walked over to take Yeon Gaesomun away, but Yeon Gaesomun raised a hand to stop him. He looked at Du Qi and said, "Du Qi, as long as you are willing to accept Goguryeo as a subject and release me, I will cooperate with you. Then, I can cooperate with you and help you destroy Silla and Baekje. Only with my help can you achieve victory. "
"Hahaha …"
Du Qi couldn't help but laugh.
This was Yeon Gaesomun's goal.
He wanted Du Qi to release him.
Du Qi straddled the horse's back and leaned forward slightly. He raised the horsewhip in his hand and lashed it down with a crack. The horsewhip struck Yeon Gaesomun's face. The intense pain and tyrannical force caused Yeon Gaesomun to topple to the ground. He clutched his stinging face and looked at Du Qi. "Du Qi, you don't believe me?"
Du Qi asked, "Yeon Gaesomun, does your face hurt?"
Yeon Gaesomun clenched his teeth, his hand gently stroking his cheek. Du Qi's whip just now had left his cheek burning. His entire face was red and swollen.
How could it not hurt?
It hurt so much that he almost couldn't help but scream.
Du Qi continued, "If your face hurts, you should know your limits. You, Yeon Gaesomun, were able to reign supreme in Goguryeo not because you were formidable. First, it was because your father, Yeon Taizuo, paved the way for you to wield power. Second, it was because Gao Jianwu was too stupid and incompetent, allowing you to be so arrogant and despotic. If it were This Us, I would have killed you long ago. "
Yeon Gaesomun said, "Du Qi, you are arrogant and conceited. You will regret it sooner or later."
Du Qi said, "You will personally witness the defeat of Silla and Baekje. Once they are defeated, it will be the day of your death. Come, drag him away and keep a good watch on him. "
The soldiers dragged Yeon Gaesomun away.
Du Qi looked at Yeon Gaesomun's departing back and shook his head. Yeon Gaesomun should have thought highly of himself and was of great value, but in reality, Du Qi had already made clear arrangements for Yeon Gaesomun.
The group continued on their way, and it didn't take long for the army to arrive at the new road, where the Baekje army was garrisoned.
The army set up camp.
The ferocious aura was terrifying.
Meanwhile, in the Silla and Baekje army camp, Jin Chunqiu and Fuyu Fan had already come out. The two of them had already learned that Xia Xia's weapons could fire from afar, so they wore ordinary clothes and stood among the soldiers, not taking the initiative to show themselves.
This was to avoid being bombarded.
Du Qi did not care about the arrangements of Silla and Baekje. He rode his horse to the front of the formation and looked at the Silla and Baekje army camps that had already been set up.
Outside the camp, there were rows of barricades.
As well as the other fortifications.
Du Qi shouted, "This Us is the emperor of Great Xia, Du Qi. Where are Jin Chunqiu and Fuyu Fan? Answer me. "
When Jin Chunqiu and Fuyu Fan heard Du Qi's shout, they looked at each other in shock. After all, Du Qi's army had not made a move after arriving in Pyongyang. Although Du Qi had received news of them heading north, Jin Chunqiu and Fuyu Fan had not revealed any information. However, Du Qi knew about it, so the two of them were stunned.
Then, Jin Chunqiu nodded at the person beside him. Someone had already stood up and walked to the entrance of the camp.
This person was in charge of passing on the message.
Jin Chunqiu knew how powerful Xia's cannons were, so she did not show herself directly. Instead, she hid in the camp. Jin Chunqiu said directly, "Du Qi, aren't you afraid that Yeon Gaesomun will destroy your nest by attacking us with an army?"
The soldier immediately passed on the message. Moreover, the soldier stood at the entrance of the camp and shouted loudly, so it was obvious that it was not Jin Chunqiu.
Du Qi saw it and did not care.
It did not matter.
It did not matter if Jin Chunqiu appeared or not. This was because Du Qi's focus was not on killing the leader, but on destroying the morale of Xinluo and Baekje. Only then could he destroy Xinluo and Baekje's army in one go.
Du Qi said, "Jin Chunqiu, you and Fuyu Fan hide in the crowd at the back. Sigh, why are you so afraid of death? Don't worry, I won't directly bombard you this time. "
Jin Chunqiu said, "Those who believe in you are already dead."
Du Qi shook his head and said, "Jin Chunqiu, you think too highly of yourself. I said I won't secretly bombard you with cannons, so I won't bombard you. You can hide in the crowd and see the situation outside. Come, come, I'll show you someone. "
As he spoke, Du Qi waved his hand, and Yeon Gaesomun was brought out.
Even though Yeon Gaesomun was much thinner now, it was still possible to distinguish his appearance at a glance. After all, Yeon Gaesomun's appearance was unique, and it was difficult for ordinary people to imitate his temperament.
