Chapter 841 Successful Rescue
Li Kaigu shook his head again and again and refused:
"At this point, we have no way to retreat. This valley is the only way for us to go south. If we take a detour elsewhere, we will encounter countless obstacles."
"You don't need to explore the way ahead. We don't have much time."
"Just go in."
He made a decision, holding the ancient ingot knife, and rushed in first.
Although Zhao Kai was reluctant, he had no right to refute, so he had to follow Li Kaigu and rush inside.
Zhao Kai could feel that Li Kaigu tonight was very different from before.
Above the valley, Yang Dacheng smiled coldly.
Under Li Xiaoyi's careful arrangement, only dozens of people are left following Li Kaigu's tens of thousands of troops.
With such a small number of people entering the valley, the final outcome would certainly be death without a burial place. Escape from the encirclement would be as difficult as taking off.
In his heart, Yang Dacheng issued a death notice to Li Kaigu, and he murmured:
"Ru Hai, you and I are brothers. If you die, I will avenge you."
"As for your position as General of the Cavalry, it will belong to me, Yang Dacheng, from now on."
He seemed to have seen the dead General Fang Ruhai coming to him, hugging him tightly, and then personally handing the seal of the General into his hands.
Just as he was imagining it, a young general suddenly pointed to a fire snake that was crawling on the land somewhere and made a surprised sound.
"Could it be an army too?"
Yang Dacheng looked over quickly and saw a winding fire snake appearing on the ground. The fire snake would disperse from time to time, but would gather together again in no time.
Although Yang Dacheng had not seen this kind of scene, he had been in the army for many years. With some common sense he learned from his military career, he quickly figured out what it was.
"cavalry!"
"A cavalry of no less than three thousand men!"
"Li Xiaoyi never told me that he had arranged such a cavalry."
Yang Dacheng waved to his generals:
"These are most likely Li Kaigu's reinforcements. Lead your troops to intercept them immediately. We will make it difficult for them to rescue the Left and Right Yuqian Guards."
"If you don't make it, forget it."
……
Liu Qi is very annoyed.
Following Daleha's orders, he led 5,000 black-armored cavalrymen to charge into Fuzhou. After searching around, he indeed found a military camp where Li Kaigu had divided his troops.
But when he arrived, the military camp had already been breached, and the patrolling left and right Eagle Guards were full of murderous intent, so they did not dare to approach.
After he heard the news of the attack from the defeated soldiers and looked at the map, he knew that Li Xiaoyi's target was indeed Li Kaigu, so after asking where Li Kaigu's army was, he immediately rushed to Yongtai to rescue Li Kaigu and the left and right Yuqin Guards.
but……
When he arrived, the Yongtai camp was broken.
Looking from afar, only the soldiers of the Left and Right Eagle Guards were left cleaning up the battlefield.
Running all the way south, he encountered many defeated soldiers, all of whom were the left and right Yuqian guards, running around aimlessly.
Then he chased after me.
The black-armored cavalrymen who defeated thousands of troops of the Right Eagle Guard finally chased them out of the valley.
"This valley is filled with murderous aura!"
Liu Qi thought for a moment, then waved his hand and asked several soldiers behind him to ride their horses in to look for Li Kaigu and his group.
"Based on the escape routes of these Yuqian Guards, they were forcibly abducted here by force majeure. Someone is deliberately diverting their route."
Liu Qi calmed down and thought about it.
This surprising conclusion was reached.
If the enemy's intention was to set an ambush in this valley, Li Kaigu would most likely have been killed.
Cavalry can't play any role in the valley. If he wants to exchange five thousand lives for Li Kaigu's chance of survival, he is a big fool.
"Pass on my order. Send out scouts and search carefully to see if there are any large armies approaching this area! If you find any, report immediately!"
"The army is ready to retreat at any time. I'm afraid the left and right Yuqian guards can't be rescued, but we can't fall in."
Liu Qi looked back at the flames and felt very uncomfortable.
Even if his cavalry wanted to save people, it was impossible for them to rescue many Yuqian Guards.
The great general of the Great Wu, Li Xiaoyi, calculated that Li Kaigu and Zhang Renyuan would not be able to react in time, so he chose to launch a surprise attack. By the time Zhang Renyuan could react, Li Kaigu's entire army might have been wiped out and he would have died in Fuzhou.
Fortunately, Dalha came and saw through Li Xiaoyi's plan, and maybe he could recover some of Li Kaigu's losses.
While waiting anxiously, shouts and screams were heard in the valley.
Liu Qi heard the voice and raised his spear high:
"All troops, prepare for battle!"
Soon, four riders rushed out of the valley, with Zhao Kai leading the way, holding a spear.
Liu Qi looked closely and saw a man lying on Zhao Kai's horse. He had been hit by two arrows in the back and was lying on the horse's back, his life or death unknown.
"General, General Li Kaigu has been rescued!"
A knight who was lagging behind shouted loudly, and before he finished speaking, dozens of arrows shot towards him, turning him into a hornet's nest in just an instant.
The knight fell down and fell asleep with his horse at the exit of the valley.
He was only one step away from getting out alive, but he still lay down.
Zhao Kai was originally very panicked, but when he heard the people behind him calling him "General", he calmed down and rode his horse straight towards Liu Qi.
"General, please escort the great general away. I am willing to cover the rear of the army!"
"Why bother? Just follow us and break out of the encirclement!" Liu Qi shook his head and wanted to take Zhao Kai away as well.
Unexpectedly, the warhorse under Zhao Kai stumbled as it galloped over, throwing Li Kaigu and Zhao Kai off together.
Liu Qi quickly hung his spear on the victory hook, turned over and wanted to help Li Kaigu and Zhao Kai.
But when he looked closely, he saw that Zhao Kai, who was facing away from him, had several arrows stuck in his back.
"General, please help me get the general onto the horse. Leave now, I am doomed!"
Zhao Kai helped Li Kaigu up, looked around, and found one of Liu Qi's personal soldiers. He quickly helped Li Kaigu over, and Liu Qi, who had followed, lent a hand, and together they put Li Kaigu on the warhorse.
"General, leave immediately!"
Zhao Kai turned around, tears welling up in his eyes.
There were nearly 100,000 Yingyangwei troops. Excluding the 30,000 casualties during the ambush of the 50,000 Zuo Yingyangwei troops, the remaining 60,000 troops were all killed here tonight.
Liu Desheng was already dead, and he didn't have the face to face Song Wuji, the general of Zuoweiwei who almost became a commander without troops.
Lieutenant General, Lieutenant General!
The army is gone, so what is the use of him as a deputy general?
"Brothers, I, Zhao Kai, am here with you today to face the afterlife."
He shouted and rushed back, dragging the knife.
Liu Qi sighed and did not stop Zhao Kai. The 100,000-strong army was wiped out in just one month. Even if Zhao Kai did not die now, he would seek death when he returned to the court.
