A team of more than two hundred people stood alone on the vast land of Guangmao.
The Japanese pirates lacked horses, but among the two hundred people, there were more than forty riders.
Call.
Kudo Naoto drank and lived.
He first looked back at the base camp with flickering lights not far away, and then turned to look to the west.
well.
Looking at the darkness in front of him, as if he were looking at the distant Hun River, Kudo Naoto sighed silently.
As the saying goes, defeat is like a mountain falling.
At this time, Wu Siyuan's Baekje army had not yet crossed the Hun River, but the east bank was completely in chaos.
Although Yamato's generals tried their best to gather and restrain their men, the soldiers turned a deaf ear and ran around like headless flies.
Their information has always been unclear, but at this time everyone knew one thing.
That means Beihai Customs was destroyed.
The Starfall Legion even captured Masato Nei.
From now on, there will be no obstacles between the Yunchui Empire and Baekje.
Wei Junqian always retaliates, so Xingluo's army will surely march eastward soon.
And under the command of Kudo Naoto, they were defeated again and again, and now they couldn't even defeat the little Wu Siyuan...
Therefore, you have to run!
Run quickly.
If you don't run away, you will either fall under the butcher's knife of the Baekje people now, or die at the hands of the Starfall Army later.
As the saying goes, once the people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team.
The generals, wielding their swords, could only look at nothing and sigh, helpless.
Some soldiers tried to run back to Kudo's camp for protection; others had no confidence in Kudo Naoto and headed for remote areas; some lost their heads and got lost while wandering around, and instead headed towards the Hun River.
Slip away in the direction...
The army is basically in ruins.
"General," a military advisor urged in a low voice, "it's getting late, and this place is quite far from the south bank. Let's leave quickly."
After saying that, he looked around nervously, fearing that the Xingluo people would appear out of nowhere and catch them off guard.
"Why are you panicking?" Naoto Arikudo's bodyguard said disdainfully.
"Liang Rushi is also a human being, not a god, let alone a roundworm in our stomachs. How could he possibly know our whereabouts?"
"Besides, we have two hundred personal guards carefully selected by the general. Each of them is extraordinary in their ability to block a hundred. There is nothing to fear from the mere Xingluo forward battalion!"
The young military advisor looked at the guards silently.
These people are all tall, but they are either leading donkeys or oxen, or pushing or carrying heavy gold, silver, jewelry and grain.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m tired or because it’s hot, but everyone is sweating profusely.
"I didn't say I was afraid," the young military advisor said with a stern look on his face, "Isn't this just a precaution?"
"What if, you are clearly scared to death by Xingluo Man..."
snort.
Kudo Naoto came back to his senses and snorted coldly.
"What time has this happened, and it's still noisy!"
He looked up at the south distractedly and said, "Let's go."
Now that he has decided to leave, Kudo Naoto no longer acts arrogantly.
After saying that, he pinched the thin horse under him with his legs and ran southward.
————
Zi Shi.
I can't see my fingers.
Double set post.
Lei Er was munching broad beans while looking through the binoculars.
"Lao Lei," someone next to him chuckled, "Do the broad beans sent by Dachun Valley this time taste good?"
"That's bullshit!" Lei Er scolded him angrily, "I don't know who the bastard cooked it. It was old and bitter, and he didn't even want to put in salt, which made my jaw feel sore from chewing it...
"
After saying that, he couldn't help but glance at the southern night sky.
well.
After eating so many snacks from various places, the garlic-flavored chestnuts on Yuqian Street in Nanshu City are the best.
He missed his wife a little.
"Baekje has been a bitter and cold place since ancient times. The conditions have never been good. As long as there is food, it will be fine."
Someone patted his shoulder to comfort him.
"The battle in front of us is about to be over, and we will be able to return home soon. By then, what snacks you want will be available if you don't have them..."
Shhh.
Lei Er suddenly raised his finger to signal others to be silent.
"Naoto Kudo is here."
"Really?" The brothers nearby were all refreshed, and they quickly stretched their necks and looked towards the north.
Sure enough, a team of torches appeared in the distance.
Although the Douda fire was weak, it was very eye-catching in the dark night.
"Looking at the torches, there don't seem to be many people?"
High-purity crystal is rare, so telescopes are expensive to build.
Due to the proximity to the water tower, the number in the hands of the Starfall Legion is considered large, but it is still extremely limited.
At this time, except for Lei Er, there was no one else in the crowd, and the number of people could only be vaguely determined by torches.
Um.
Lei Er nodded, not surprised.
Kudo Naoto will be escaping in secret, and he will bring only elites or confidants with him, so the number of people will naturally not be too large.
What's more important is that he defected to Ukawa Taishi, who didn't have many ships and no food.
If you bring everyone on board, it will be safe, but in the end who can get on the ship and who will stay behind is a big problem.
If it is not handled well, it is very likely that Xingluo or the Baekje people will not kill them yet, but they themselves will start an internal strife first.
"The other party has about two hundred people, but they have more than forty horses."
Tsk tsk tsk.
Lei Er shook his head with emotion as he spoke.
The Japanese pirates are seriously short of horses, and each horse is regarded as a treasure. Now forty horses appear at once, and the leader looks like a big fish even if he is not Kudo Naoto...
Speaking of this, his face looked a little strange.
"But those without horses seem to be moving, either leading donkeys or oxen, or carrying things on their backs. Looking at those bags, they seem to be quite heavy."
hey-hey.
Someone chuckled.
"Isn't it strange? They are about to be driven into the sea. Naturally, they have to move some food quickly, otherwise they will be left empty-handed."
Ha ha.
There was laughter all around.
"Lei Er, we also have two hundred people," someone was already waving his hands, "How about we just go up."
Although there are more than 200 people on the other side, most of them don't have horses, and they are also carrying heavy supplies on the way. Even the most elite ones are already half dead from exhaustion.
Start working directly and finish early.
Maybe after the fight, they can go back and have a nice sleep.
As for what the other party brought, he naturally accepted it with a smile.
Lei Er shook his head and threw a few more broad beans into his mouth.
"Wait a while and let all brothers prepare."
We will wait until the spies come back to tell us everything.
Not long after, two riders came galloping from the back hill.
"General, my subordinates have found out that there are only 223 people on the other side, and there is no support within thirty miles."
"Very good." Lei Er nodded with satisfaction.
flutter!
He spat out the bean dregs in his mouth, turned on his horse, and raised his machete high.
"Everyone has it, Xingluo!"
When the spies came back, all the soldiers had silently drawn their weapons and stood beside their horses.
As soon as they heard the order, they all got on their horses, roared with Lei Er, and rushed down the mountain with murderous intent.
Starfall!
what's the situation?
The loud charge in the dark night made Kudo Naoto and his party tremble.
Everyone turned around to look for fame.
However, the night was too dark, and in the blur Naoto Kudo could only see the crowds of people moving on the hillock, and the hoofbeats of horses shaking the sky.
I had no idea how many enemies there were at that moment.
His heart suddenly sank.
Traitor!
There is also a traitor by his side.
Otherwise, how would Xingluo Man know his whereabouts?
However, before he could clear his mind, in the flickering firelight, a fierce general with wide eyes and a blood-red horse was already approaching him.
