Seoul is about to be attacked.
Fang Bie looked at Li Fu and said with a little detachment.
Essentially, as a child, Li Fu couldn't fully understand Fang Bing's meaning.
In his opinion, his country is so peaceful, how could it encounter such a sudden and huge change, and even be about to be destroyed in an instant.
So Li Fu was muttering speechless for a moment, while Fang Bie gently touched the other person's head: "Anyway, I will protect your safety."
"Protect?" Li Fu tilted his head and looked at Fang Farewell. Before he could recover, a voice came from outside.
Fang Bie stood up in an instant: "It seems he's already here."
"What has come?" Li Fu asked.
The young man subconsciously thought that the enemy had arrived.
"Don't be nervous." Fang Bie looked at Li Fu.
"The messenger is here."
…
…
The young man counted every step of the reaction of the Goryeo Kingdom to death. Indeed, as long as the King of Goryeo sent a reconnaissance team in the direction of Busan, he would soon be able to get the imminent enemy's movements.
Because for Goryeo, one thing is very desperate.
That is, this country is very small and has no strategic depth. Once the enemy successfully lands, there is a risk of being penetrated by the opponent.
And now, under the leadership of King Li Song of Goryeo, Fang Bie came to the city wall of Seoul with him.
At this time, no trace of the enemy could be seen in the distance, but everyone on the city wall knew that the enemy's attack was approaching.
"Based on your Majesty's current intelligence, when will the enemy arrive at the city?" Fang Bie said, looking at Li Song who looked nervous.
At this time, Li Song no longer had the calmness and confidence he had when talking to Fang Bie before, because the information he received was very vague.
The enemy is indeed coming.
But how many, I don’t know.
Where, I don’t know.
I don't know what the purpose is.
All he knew was that the Japanese army did land in Busan, and after landing, they captured the state capital on a large scale and occupied the land. On the other hand, they also actively pushed towards Seoul, intending to directly smash the brains of Goryeo.
But no one's information was as clear as what Fang Bu gave him.
According to the intelligence from other parties, facing the invasion of 200,000 troops, the only thing Li Song could do was to run.
The faster you run, the better.
You even need to cross the river and enter the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty to ensure your own safety.
But the more times this happens, the harder it is to make a decision.
In other words, there is always a trace of luck.
For example - what Fang Bu said is false?
"I don't know." Li Song shook his head: "I only know that you are right. Japan did attack. This is something that has not happened in the past hundreds of years."
"Then what does Your Majesty plan to do?" Fang Bie asked.
"Of course I will resist to the death." Li Song said without hesitation: "The soldiers in Hancheng are well-prepared and have enough food to wait and work here and snipe the enemy."
"Your Majesty, do you really think so?" Fang Bie looked at Li Song and said quietly: "Since your Majesty has been studying Confucian classics and Chinese history since childhood, doesn't your Majesty know about the two Song Dynasties?"
"When the Jin invaded and Bianliang was besieged, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty failed to leave in time, so he was captured by the Jin and hunted in the north. From then on, he was imprisoned, leading sheep to surrender. His wife and daughter were humiliated and were not allowed to return to their homeland for the rest of their lives."
"On the contrary, Emperor Gaozong heard the news and left, wandering on the sea for several months in a boat, and finally escaped, thus establishing the Southern Song Dynasty and preventing the country from being destroyed."
Li Song struggled a little as he listened to Fang Bing's words.
Most of the Goryeo nobles admired Chinese culture, so they studied its historical classics a lot. King Li Song was trained with the goal of being a wise king in Confucianism. He was not only proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, but also in historical books such as Zizhi Tongjian. After some study, he naturally knew the story of the two Song Dynasties, and he also understood that Fang Bie was hinting to him that if he held on to the city, the consequences would be very dangerous. Of course, if you hold on to the city, you still have the option of surrendering, but in any case, placing your hopes on the brave soldiers of Goryeo, even Li Song, understands that this is a very dangerous thing.
No matter how tough you talk, if your personal safety is threatened, you can no longer take it calmly.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Li Song looked at Fang Bie and said.
In any case, Fang Bie came all the way to remind him of the information about the Japanese invasion. From this point of view, it was a huge contribution. Moreover, Fang Bie had already demonstrated his unparalleled martial arts. The reason why Li Song paid so much attention to Fang Bie was another important reason. The reason is that there is currently no way to check and balance Fang Bie. For a top master like Fang Bie, if he stands on his side, the difference between standing on his own side and standing on the opposite side is more than just a trick.
To put it simply, if Fang Bie is a spy from Japan, then if Li Song is killed at this time, Hancheng will be leaderless, and facing the Japanese army, it will be almost collapsed.
In this case, you can trust Fang Bu for the time being. In this case, at least your own safety will be more guaranteed.
"Thirty-six strategies, taking action is the best policy." Fang Bie said his suggestion without hesitation.
In fact, no matter what time it is, the capitulationists can occupy a large market, but it just depends on when the capitulationists can bravely speak out their ideas. After all, surrendering is always a decision of inferiority.
As an outsider, Fang Bie could make such suggestions without any psychological burden.
"Are you leaving?" Li Song looked at Fang Bie: "Gaoli Xiao Guo'er, how do you want to go? Where do you want to go?"
"If there is a small country, there will naturally be a big country. If you die with cold lips and teeth, the Zhou Dynasty will not stand idly by watching Goryeo being invaded by the Japanese. What's more, the Japanese are ambitious. This time, the purpose is quite big, and they cannot treat it coldly." Fang Bie was confident. He told Li Song this suggestion, which Li Song himself knew well.
"As long as your Majesty goes all the way north and sends envoys to ask for help from the Great Zhou Dynasty, as long as the Great Zhou Dynasty learns and verifies the situation, heavenly troops will soon come to wipe out the enemies of Japan and allow Your Majesty to return to the old capital. It doesn't matter. Down."
Li Song sighed - if there was no other way, few people would be willing to ask for help like this.
"I wonder if I can slow down for a while." Li Song looked at Fang Bie and said.
"Why take it slow?" Fang Bie asked with a smile.
"That is, I leave Seoul first and send envoys, but I only mention the Japanese invasion and do not mention the request for help. If the Japanese army cannot attack Seoul, and if the Japanese enemy does not have what Shaoxia said, If there are so many, then there is still room for change." Li Song said thoughtfully.
No matter what, asking for help is always embarrassing.
If life and death are at stake, this aid will definitely be requested, but if the knife is not yet placed on the neck, then everything can still be slowed down.
"Okay." Fang Bie nodded.
This is also human nature, and it is not that urgent to say goodbye.
As long as Li Song is willing to leave Seoul first, instead of staying here and letting the Japanese troops take over, everything will still have a chance.
"When does Your Majesty plan to leave? I'm going to say something ugly ahead of time. The Japanese army may not be able to arrive around Seoul tomorrow. After all, Goryeo is really a bit small." Fang Bie looked at Li Song and said.
Of course, Japan's marching speed is known. To be precise, the opponent's vanguard troops will arrive at the gates of Seoul in three days, and the official attack on the city will take about five days. However, how long Seoul can hold on is really unknown.
The only thing Fang Bie knew was that Seoul would never be able to hold on for long.
To put it simply, it’s too late if you don’t run.
"What about three days later?" Li Song said with a hint of bargaining.
"It won't take long to clean up the gold and silver. This is war, not hunting, Your Majesty." Fang Bie said coldly: "Your Majesty should at least leave Seoul immediately to protect his own safety."
Li Song hesitated for a moment and looked at the scenery below the city.
Then he sighed: "Okay."
…
…
Just like what Fang Bie said, if the king fled with only gold and silver, it would be very fast. He could leave with enough guards to protect his own safety.
But if you want to take away all the treasures in Seoul, it will be a capital relocation, and I am afraid it will not be completed in a month or two.
At this time, Fang Bie was already on the carriage leaving Seoul.
This is a team of only a few hundred people. Except for the Goryeo royal family and some officials including Li Fu, most of this team is composed of elite troops in Seoul and the Guards who protect Li Song's safety. The temporary destination is to go to Rangpyeong, which is north of Seoul and is also a big city in Goryeo. Here we are waiting for news about the Battle of Seoul. If we win the Battle of Seoul, we can naturally return the old capital quickly. If If Seoul loses and the Japanese army continues to advance, then Pingcheng will definitely not be able to defend it, and may actually go to the border of Zhou Dynasty to ask for asylum.
This is the worst case scenario.
However, Fang Bu was not idle on the carriage either. He held a brush in his hand on the bumpy carriage and quietly finished writing a letter, then skillfully put it into a copper tube. Then he closed his eyes and entered the carriage. In the pure dreamland.
And as a white pigeon fluttered its wings and took off at night, Yan Yu, who was in Busan, soon received a report from Fang Bi.
"A letter from your brother." Yan Yu greeted He Ping with a smile: "Would you like to read it together?"
"Okay." He Ping nodded.
In fact, He Ping has done almost nothing these days. Apart from being forced to take on the overall situation in Japan due to Fang Bie's temporary amnesia, the boss lady has been recuperating recently.
After all, no matter what, He Ping's illness is still an unresolved concern.
Yan Yu took out the copper tube in front of He Ping, took out the letter inside, unfolded it and read: "See you safe."
"I am now in the convoy of the King of Korea leaving Seoul. As expected, I have successfully gained the trust of the Goryeo royal family and have pushed them to leave Seoul as soon as possible to avoid being captured by the Japanese guards. Otherwise, all plans will be lost. All the efforts made before the meeting were in vain.”
"Next, Japan can attack the city with all its strength. Only by conquering Seoul can it prompt the Goryeo royal family to ask for help."
"You can also leave early and follow the Japanese army. Maybe we can meet in Seoul then."
"By the way, say hello to Sister Ping for me."
"Farewell."
Yan Yu finished reading this short letter easily, and then looked at He Ping: "Look, it's so short, but I still have time to say hello to you. Your brother is really a senior sister-in-law."
"Because the length of letters that can be contained in copper pipes is very short." He Ping said lightly: "Also, I'm just a younger brother."
"Is he just a younger brother?" Yan Yu looked at He Ping with disbelief: "He is obviously just a child you picked up. You two care about each other like that, so are you really not in love for a long time?"
Because they had been together for a long time, Yan Yu's queen bee filter was already very weak at this time, so Yan Yu could make such jokes without any scruples.
"It's just a younger brother." He Ping looked at Yan Yu and repeated.
"Your Highness, you should know that I don't have any relatives." He Ping looked at Yan Yu and said calmly. There was no expression on her face. Now He Ping has finally officially passed her thirtieth birthday. She still looks like a woman in her early twenties, but in fact she is no longer young.
"So I never had the luxury of expecting people like me to have something that we could rely on for warmth."
"But when I rescued this child from the flood that day, even though I knew it was probably the worst choice I'd ever made in my life, I still did it."
"Fortunately, this is one of the most important decisions I've ever made in my life."
"I gained a family member I can trust and rely on."
"Fang Bie is my younger brother." He Ping looked at Yan Yu and continued to add: "He is just my younger brother."
"This is enough."
"That makes me very satisfied."
"Okay." Yan Yu sighed: "I can't understand people like you."
"Then let me ask."
"If this is all over, where will you go?"
"Is everything over?" He Ping looked at Yan Yu: "Will everything end?"
"Maybe it will end? You always have to have some dreams in life, right?" Yan Yu smiled: "Don't tell me, if everything ends, he wants to find a place to open another inn, just like you did Do that.”
"Now that I think about it carefully, it was probably a kind of farewell and departure. It's just a pity that the hive finally pulled you back into the vortex."
"If one day you can completely get rid of the shackles of the hive, will you still find a place to live quietly and never ask about these worldly affairs again?"
He Ping tilted her head subtly: "Is that what Fang Bie said?"
"For me, actually."
"As long as I'm by his side, I'm satisfied."
Yan Yu sighed and looked at her: "I didn't expect you to speak like a young wife."
"Let me ask you a question." The girl looked at her.
"Is it okay if I want to be the boss lady?"
He Ping pursed her lips lightly, and then smiled: "It would be better if you go and ask the other party?"
"It's because Fang Bie disagrees that I came to ask you!" Yan Yu said loudly.
"Your Highness, you shouldn't be with us." He Ping looked at Yan Yu and said softly.
