The development of the situation was mostly expected. However, there are also unexpected phenomena.
People who are not sages will inevitably make mistakes.
As expected, Qi Jingjun fought back the attack of the Donglu cavalry with a very tough attitude. Moreover, tens of thousands of Tatar troops were annihilated in pursuit of victory.
It is said that in the process of annihilating the enemy, Hong Tao, the pioneer of the Mobei Army, also successfully killed the general of Donglu.
This move not only greatly demoralized the enemy's army, but also greatly boosted the morale of the Feng army.
The Donglu army failed in the first battle, but they were not discouraged. Instead, they regrouped and immediately launched a second wave of attacks.
However...the eggs are combined!
The second time, it still ended in failure.
It can be said that the Qi Jiajun fought bloody battles without fear of life and death, which directly ruined their hope of breaking out.
Just kidding, if they succeed in breaking through, wouldn't Mobei's rear area be in chaos?
How could Qi Jing give up a piece of territory he had finally conquered?
It would be strange not to protect it with all your strength.
Seeing that there was no hope of a breakthrough, the Donglu army had no choice but to change their established tactics and retreat to the rear.
At the same time, they also sent envoys to ask the King of Korea for help, hoping that he would send troops to help because of the mutual friendship for many years.
What? Let Gu go and fight Qi Jing?
There are no doors!
The King of Korea was not an idiot, so how could he take the initiative to hit the gun?
Therefore, in terms of face, he pretended to agree hypocritically, but in fact, he did not take any action.
In fact, he also has his own secrets.
Facing the large-scale invasion by the Fuso Army, he himself was a little overwhelmed. How could he have any spare time to take care of Donglu?
Let’s sweep the snow away from our doorsteps!
The above were basically within Qi Dalang's expectations.
What is unexpected is that the current Fuso Army knows its shame and becomes brave, showing extremely strong combat effectiveness.
In two battles, they won complete victories, and Goryeo was completely defeated and defeated.
Although the turtle ship is very innovative and has excellent defense capabilities, its lack of mobility is its weakness.
With Emperor Meisho's keen insight, it was absolutely impossible that he would not be able to discover this kind of loophole. In addition, they now have a half-baked steam engine ship, so they are even less likely to be beaten passively.
In the end, the Japanese army relied on their technical advantages of mobility to carry out a fatal blow to Goryeo's turtle ship fleet. After two battles, the latter's navy was cut in half due to its inability to respond.
This situation is a bit serious!
Based on past anti-Japanese experience, the King of Goryeo immediately made corresponding adjustments. He adopted the advice of the great national advisor Kim Liubok and gave up the naval game and focused on land defense instead.
Even for the sake of safety, they took the initiative to dismantle their own deep-water dock to keep the enemy away from the coastline...
The Goryeo army could not defeat the Fuso people, which was somewhat consistent with Qi Yu's expectation, but what he never expected was that they were so vulnerable.
Judging from the facts, the turtle ship does not have any advantage in front of the steam engine ship and can only be passively beaten.
In addition to the contest between them, Da Fengjun also made some moves.
Seemingly inadvertently, the imperial court's military force quietly arrived at the Jiaodong Peninsula and immediately deployed defenses to protect the country.
Seeing that the rear area was becoming stable, Qi Yu secretly set out with the accompanying two thousand marines.
In addition to supplies, he also took away half the number of hot air balloons.
Let’s talk about his marching route first.
First take the sea route to the Koryo Peninsula, and then land secretly to start the follow-up operations. It is simple, straightforward and not complicated.
However, there is a core to this.
That is, it must be silent and must not alert the snake.
Of course, if you want to be so secretive, you have to do it with lightning speed.
"Master Qi, Koryo is a peninsula surrounded by sea. It is not difficult to land on it. But where should the ships we are riding on dock? If we stay at the port for a long time, we will inevitably be discovered by the enemy; If he is sent back, it will be equivalent to cutting off his escape route. What do you think we should do?" Huang Fei scratched his head and asked worriedly.
Qi Yu's face straightened and he replied: "To be on the safe side, these ships must be sent back, otherwise our whereabouts will be exposed. As for the retreat, we can take the land route straight to Mobei. As long as we reach Qi Jing's territory , we are completely out of danger."
Transfer to Mobei by land?
Needless to say, this is indeed a feasible retreat. But, it's not very safe.
If you are intercepted by enemy soldiers, you will be attacked from the back and front.
Seeing Huang Fei's lingering worry, Qi Yu comforted him and said, "Now we are trying to seize chestnuts from the fire and make dangerous moves. In this situation, we must be brave enough to take a risk. If we pursue safety excessively, we will be defeated." Be cautious in your fetters, and you will succeed in failure.”
"That's right. You have to be decisive when you should be decisive. Being sloppy will only cause trouble!" Lao Huang quickly came to his senses and nodded in approval.
Now is the time to march quickly and act cheaply, and the most taboo thing is to be indecisive.
If you stay in place without making a decision, it will not only increase the risk of exposure, but also make the planned plan fall short.
Therefore, we must be decisive.
After discussing the broad guidelines, it’s time to talk about the details.
According to the topographic map passed down by Xiaotong, the place where the emperor was imprisoned was a wilderness.
Its terrain is like a natural chasm.
Although the dangerous terrain increases the difficulty of marching, it also increases the protection of one's own concealment.
Generally speaking, there are gains and losses, and there are also benefits hidden in the difficulties.
As for how to enter or break through the natural chasm, we have to wait until on-site investigation to make a conclusion.
In short, it is adaptable to local conditions and flexible, and there is no fixed pattern.
"In this way, we march at night, rest during the day, and camp in the wild without smoke. In this way, we avoid ourselves from being exposed."
"Also, the three armies only carry necessary supplies, travel with light troops, and try to pursue speed."
"..."
As military orders were issued one after another, Qi Yujun's combat ideas began to become clear.
In addition, he also sent elite scouts to sneak in first to notify Qi Xiaotong and his party to prepare to evacuate.
Once Li Hongyu was rescued, the King of Korea would immediately turn against him and even pursue and intercept him at all costs. By then, Qi Xiaotong's situation in the enemy camp would be somewhat dangerous.
To avoid becoming a hostage, you must prepare in advance.
Qi Yu firmly believed that with her wisdom and methods, it would not be difficult to escape. As long as she was safe, she had nothing to worry about.
At that time, all available means will be used at once.
However, it’s up to people to plan things, but it’s up to God to make things happen.
Whether you can achieve your goal in the end depends on luck.
