Chapter 41 Discovered

Yu Qing divided the tasks to be done into three parts and handed them over to the three. Shen Guan was responsible for purchasing food and grass from Xiaoyang Village and nearby areas, while Bai Yunhua led the white-robed army to be responsible for the surrounding security, and dispatched a large number of scouts according to Yu Qing's arrangement.

As for Li Shu's mission, to recruit soldiers from nearby villages, Yu Qing promised him that as a vanguard officer, he would be able to lead as many soldiers as he could.

The three of them started to get busy after receiving the task, and Yu Qing became the most idle person for a while.

At this time, the people in the Great Xia Emperor's Capital were in panic, and there were various rumors from the market.

"Hey, hey, do you know? The Goryeo army is about to surrender to the imperial capital!"

"It's too late for you to know. I heard that the capital Beiguan was occupied yesterday. I'm leaving first. Today our family is going to the south."

For a while, the north gate of the imperial capital was closed tightly, and the atmosphere was very tense.There was a lot of voices at the south gate, and there was a crowd of people at the city gate.

In the palace, Su Boxiu sat there frowning, while Eunuch Qi stood aside.

"Du Beiguan is broken, is Yu Qing still alive?"

Eunuch Qi hesitated and said, "They should still be alive. I heard that they took the opportunity to escape from Dubei Pass last night."

"When he returns to the imperial capital, let him enter the palace directly!" Su Boxiu said coldly, "The imperial capital still has to rely on these generals."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Yu Qing won't be able to return to the imperial capital." Eunuch Qi said in a low voice, "They seem to have escaped from the north gate, and now we are blocked by a capital north gate."

Hearing this, Su Boxiu couldn't figure it out, why did Yu Qing run to the north?If you want to run, you should go to the south. Wouldn't it be better to go directly back to the imperial capital?

Does he really have any disobedience, but he can't develop because there are Koreans in the north.

While Su Boxiu was deep in thought, the servant came in to announce, "Your Majesty, all the adults are here, do you want to come in now?"

Su Boxiu nodded, the servant turned and left, not long after all the officials came in.

"I see you, Your Majesty!"

"Everyone get up, don't make these false rituals now." Su Boxiu frowned and said, "The Koreans are about to approach the city, what can you do to repel the enemy?"

As soon as these words came out, the ministers who knew the inside story did not move like a mountain, while the ministers who did not know the inside story were extremely surprised. It took only a few days for Yuyang to be broken first, and the three passes of Zhengbei, Dingbei, and Dubei were all broken in just a few days up!
For a while, I had a small calculation in my heart, and I was going to let my family run south together, the emperor is very dangerous.

After discussing for a long time, no one came up with a solution. Su Boxiu had no choice but to let them go back first. As a result, there were more people and more crowded at the south gate.

On the other side, Yu Qing and others gathered together, and Yu Qing was also asking questions while eating as night fell.

"How about the recruiting? There are quite a few villages here, so recruit more people before being harmed by the Goryeo army."

Li Shu put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "Today, I ran to many villages. Most of them were slaughtered or the whole village went to the mountains to escape. More than [-] people were recruited."

"In troubled times, when wars are in chaos, it would be nice to have a place to eat." Yu Qing thought for a moment and said, "Stop when you have recruited 2000 people. No matter how many more wars there are, we will send food!"

"Train as soon as you have all recruited, our place is not safe, maybe we will fight at any time!"

Li Shu nodded. 2000 people is a bit too small, but it is already good to be able to lead 2000 people here. As Yu Qing said, too many people are a burden, and too many people are troublesome to train troops.

Yu Qing looked at Shen Guan again and asked, "How about food and grass? Without food and grass, we don't need the Korean army, and we can starve to death by ourselves."

Shen Guan said with a look of embarrassment on his face, "Just like what Li Shu said, the people around rarely ran for their lives. Even if we have money, we can't receive food and grass!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere fell into a dignified state. As the saying goes, the soldiers and horses have not moved the food and grass first, and now they have not received the food and grass. How can they make contributions even if they have a problem with eating?
At this moment, Bai Yunhua said, "My lord, a lot of scouts have been scattered around recently. There are still a few villages farther away. Why don't you go there and try?"

Yu Qing nodded, "Give it a try. The people who are near the main road run almost as well, and those who are farther away may not know that the Koreans are coming. Let's collect food and grass."

Early the next morning, Yu Qing sent five hundred white-robed soldiers to accompany Shen Guan to collect grain and grass.

The scouts led the team straight to the villages. Shen Guan was all smiles. He really received a lot of food and grass. Now even 5000 people have enough food and grass to feed them for a month.

Just as Shen Guan was humming a tune, a scout ran over and said, "Sir, we have spotted the Korean cavalry behind us. They seem to have spotted us, so we need to speed up."

Shen Guan was shocked when he heard this, if he really encountered a brigade of Korean cavalry, he would definitely not be able to do it, "Hurry up, everyone, there are Korean cavalry behind, go!"

A group of people quickly ran back to Xiaoyang Village. At this time, the scout reported again, "The Goryeo cavalry did not get rid of it, and they are still following not far away."

Shen Guan hurriedly went to look for Yu Qing, "Brother, something happened!"

Yu Qingzheng and Bai Yunhua looked at the map and studied the terrain, "What's wrong? What happened to make you so panicked!"

"Brother, we were being targeted by the Koryo cavalry when we were collecting grain, and we are not far away now."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Qing and others were taken aback, they didn't expect to be discovered so early.

Yu Qing frowned and thought. Before he could figure out where to go, the enemy had already arrived. It was not easy to deal with.

"Yunhua, how are the defense facilities in the village prepared?"

Bai Yunhua said without thinking, "I just built a wall, but it's not high enough!"

At this time, a scout rushed in, "General, the Korean cavalry has spotted us, and there are more than a thousand of them."

Yu Qing nodded and waved for him to go out, "More than a thousand people are easy to deal with, but it is difficult to get a steady stream of reinforcements."

At this time, Yu Qing misses the gunpowder of the previous life very much, if more than a thousand people can take that thing, it will be easy to catch!
Yu Qing and the others put on their armor and took their weapons to the village wall and looked outside. They were surrounded by Korean cavalry, who seemed to be waiting for reinforcements and not in a hurry to attack.

Yu Qing said without hesitation, "It will be troublesome when the reinforcements come, eat these cavalry first." There are more than a thousand people, how many horses, weapons, and armor are needed for this?

Yu Qing mounted his horse, pointed his bright silver spear upward and said, "Brother, follow me and charge forward to destroy these Goryeo cavalry."

After the words fell, Yu Qing rushed out first.The Korean cavalry outside did not expect that the remnant soldiers inside would dare to take the initiative to attack, and they were caught off guard.

Yu Qing led the white-robed army to charge back and forth among the thousands of cavalry, and fell down one by one.

"Be careful, Lao Tzu, don't cut down horses when you cut people. These are our horses!" Yu Qing shouted while watching someone cut down on horses.

At this time, I only heard the sound of horse hooves not far away, and loess was flying in the distance. This was not a human being!
