After Fu Yufan persuaded Jin Chunqiu, he felt at ease. He did not feel that there was anything wrong with being schemed against this time. Instead, he felt that it was worth it. Because this time, he had obtained a general like Jin Chunqiu.
Even if Jin Chunqiu was still loyal to Xinluo, as long as Jin Yuzhen was around, Jin Chunqiu had to be in Baekje and serve Baekje. Perhaps Jin Chunqiu wanted to take revenge and would not forget to deal with Jin Yuzhen, but Jin Yuzhen was not so easy to deal with.
Baekje would also make use of Jin Chunqiu.
This was Fu Yufan's plan.
Fu Yufan did not say anything else and sat quietly beside Jin Chunqiu. After all, the current Jin Chunqiu must be feeling sad. He had to give Jin Chunqiu some time.
Jin Chunqiu sat alone.
He looked into the distance and looked at the golden sky, but his heart was filled with sorrow.
Dead!
Jinderman was dead!
Jin Yuxin was also dead!
Jin Chunqiu could even predict that since Jin Yuzhen had chosen to take action, Jin Derman, Jin Yuxin, and their families would definitely be killed. Thus, it was very likely that Jin Chunqiu was all alone.
"Sigh …"
Jin Chunqiu could not help but sigh.
He turned his head and looked behind him. It was the direction of Pyongyang City. At this moment, Jin Chunqiu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. With a furious expression, he said in a deep voice, "I will definitely kill Du Qi and avenge all the dead Xinluo people."
Fu Yufan said, "I will definitely take revenge."
"Report!"
At this moment, a soldier rushed over from behind.
The soldier came to Fu Yufan's side and reported, "General, something bad has happened. Eight miles behind us, we discovered Xia Xia's army. There are Xia Xia's cavalry that are continuing to gallop in our direction. "
Shua!
Fu Yufan's expression changed drastically.
Jin Chunqiu's face was originally filled with hatred, and he vowed to take revenge. When he heard the soldier's words, he stood up immediately. There was a hint of panic in his eyes as he hurriedly said, "Fu Yufan, retreat. We have to hurry up and retreat."
Fu Yufan nodded and said, "Previously, when we were in the military camp, because we retreated, the army did not have the strength to resist. As a result, they were killed until they were in a mess. Now that the other party is here, we can't stop them. We can only retreat. "
At this moment, Fuyu Fan also felt pity in his heart.
Xia Xia was so despicable.
They had already retreated so far away, but Xia Xia was still chasing after them.
Fuyu Fan immediately gave the order to depart.
The team set off once again.
Fu Yufan and Jin Chunqiu rode their horses and led their troops to retreat quickly. Because they had rested for too short a time, neither Fu Yu Fan nor Jin Chun Qiu had time to count their losses. Even so, the two of them roughly looked back and roughly understood that the soldiers under their command had suffered heavy losses. Now, there were at most twenty thousand people following them.
He was already extremely lucky to be able to escape this time.
The army quickly retreated, not daring to waste any time along the way. They were all afraid that Xia Xia's army would catch up to them.
Fifteen li south of where Fuyu Fan and Jin Chunqiu were retreating was a mountainous and desolate region called the Great Desolate Mountain. In this area, there were undulating mountains on both sides of the official road. Below them was the official road. However, the official road was more than two hundred feet wide. It was very wide and could accommodate a large army moving quickly.
On the hillside, there were densely packed soldiers hiding.
These soldiers were none other than Xia Xia's soldiers. In addition, there was also a portion of soldiers arranged by Gao Di. They all listened to Xia Xia's orders.
The general leading the troops was Cui Yongli.
Cui Yongli was Cui Guanglie's younger brother. However, Cui Guanglie was in charge of the navy and commanded all of Xia Xia's warships. As for Cui Yongli, he was a valiant general under Ma Yuan's command and also held the position of Lieutenant General. However, Cui Yongli's qualifications were far inferior to Zhu Youtian's. Therefore, Zhu Youtian was in charge of all the matters, while Cui Yongli was still in charge of the army under his command.
Cui Yongli was lying in ambush on the mountain. He waited quietly. Fortunately, they were now in September, so the sun wasn't too hot. However, the autumn sun was so warm that it made people want to doze off.
"Report!"
All of a sudden, a soldier rushed over.
The soldier came to Cui Yongli's side and cupped his fists. "General, the troops of Xinluo and Baekje are here. They are about six li away from us."
Cui Yongli was energized when he heard that.
He was no longer sleepy. He stood up and waved his hand to let the soldiers continue to gather information. Then, he ordered all the soldiers on the hill to prepare for battle.
Cui Yongli's eyes were filled with excitement.
He was already holding his binoculars and looking into the distance.
"General, it's still very early. How can anyone come so early? I estimate that it will take about half an hour. "
Beside Cui Yongli, the deputy general spoke.
Cui Yongli glanced at the deputy general and snorted. "I like to watch. What can you do? Hmph, I'll just wait for the troops of Xinluo and Baekje to come over. F * ck, we're lying in ambush here to block the retreat of the Xinluo and Baekje troops. Victory or defeat will depend on this. Everyone, cheer up. If anyone is afraid, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson. "
The deputy general chuckled and said, "General, don't worry. No one will admit defeat. They're all worried that they won't be able to kill enough."
Cui Yongli nodded.
He held the binoculars in his hand and carefully observed. Seeing that the other party had not appeared for the time being, he began to instruct all the artillery soldiers to carefully adjust the mortars and aim at the mountain path. At the same time, all the soldiers had to polish their weapons and prepare for battle.
Cui Yongli gave instructions for a while and picked up the binoculars to observe.
Time passed bit by bit.
In less than half an hour, Cui Yongli was still observing when suddenly, he saw a black shadow appear in his binoculars. Although it was only a black shadow for the time being, because the black shadow was densely packed, it was obvious that a large group of people had appeared.
"Prepare for battle!"
Cui Yongli directly ordered.
The order was passed down and everyone got ready.
At this moment, the entire army was preparing for battle. All the soldiers' eyes were filled with anticipation. They had waited here for such a long time just for today's battle.
Not long after, the army led by Jin Chunqiu and Fu Yufan had already approached the great desolate mountain. The two of them led the army on their way. Jin Chunqiu raised his head and looked at the great desolate mountain. Although he could not see it clearly from afar, Jin Chunqiu frowned and said, "Fu Yufan, when we came, we passed by the great desolate mountain. At that time, we didn't feel anything, but now that we look at the great desolate mountain, I feel that something is wrong."
Fu Yufan also took a look.
He thought for a moment and continued, "Jin Chunqiu, even if there's an ambush in the great desolate mountain, we have no other choice. We've retreated from Pyongyang to the great desolate mountain, and we've already put a lot of distance between us. However, the Xia Country's army continued to pester them and were still in hot pursuit. If we stop, Xia Xia's army will soon catch up. Therefore, even if we know that there are tigers on the mountain, we have to go there. "
Jin Chunqiu sighed.
That was indeed the case.
The current situation did not allow him to waste any time, so he could only continue to sit forward.
The two of them continued to lead the army forward, but they also ordered the army to be on guard and be careful. Everyone hurried forward and soon entered the official road at the foot of the great desolate mountain.
The official road at the foot of the great desolate mountain was several miles long. It was not something that could be crossed in a short time. Fortunately, the official road was wide, so it did not form a congested area.
After walking for a while, the group was getting closer and closer to the middle of the great desolate mountain.
Cui Yongli was waiting in the middle of the great desolate mountain.
When he saw that the troops of Xinluo and Baekje were about two to three hundred steps away from the middle of the official road, he clenched his fists and waved them in the air. He shouted, "Fire!"
