After reading the secret decree, Xue Hong destroyed it immediately.
Afterwards, Xue Hong found a few confidants and made some arrangements quietly.
It turned out that the Liyang Dynasty had issued an order, ordering Xue Hong to lead a group of masters away from the battlefield and secretly return to the Liyang Dynasty when things could not be done.
The Liyang Emperor was not distressed about Xue Hong, he did not have that much face, mainly because the emperor could not bear to part with the several extraordinary masters around Xue Hong.
Extraordinary combat power can play a big role. The court has already lost more than a dozen of them, and it is really not worth the loss.
If there were no deterrence from these masters, the sects within the Liyang Dynasty would definitely not be at peace.
In the case of a decisive defeat, protecting the living forces is also a helpless choice for the court.
As for those soldiers and generals, they can only leave it to fate.
However, it is not the last moment yet, and Xue Hong also needs time to make some arrangements, and cannot run for the time being.
Xuehong didn't know that if he ran away secretly at this time, he might have a chance to leave. After delaying for two days, he would have no chance to escape.
Late at night on the second day, Song Que, Zhao Gao and others appeared in a city on the Xuehong defense line.
"I, Li Youzhi, greet all the adults."
Li Youzhi, a general of the small country Lishui, commanded a million troops to support the Liyang Dynasty, but now the troops are only about 200,000.
After meeting Xuehong and learning about Xuehong's attitude, Li Youzhi decisively contacted the Zhenbei Army.
Before, Li Youzhi had contact with the Zhenbei Army, but he was hesitant because of his family and other situations.
"General Li, don't be polite. The prince has arranged for people to pick up your family and protect them. After this battle, you can reunite."
Song Que knew what these people cared about most, and gave him a reassurance.
It was not difficult for Yeyu to secretly get rid of some people.
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, Your Highness. I am determined to join the Great Xia Dynasty. I hope you will forgive me."
Li Youzhi did not expect that his family members had been rescued, so there was nothing to worry about.
"General Li, can you lead us into Chidong City smoothly?"
Song Que asked.
"Sure, I will go to Chidong City to transfer food tomorrow. This has been arranged long ago, and no one will doubt it."
If I don't make merit now, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the future. Li Youzhi is very clear about this.
"Okay, thank you."
Song Que and others need someone to lead them, otherwise it will be difficult to get in.
Chidong City has been under martial law for a long time, and ordinary people can't walk at all.
Although they are powerful, it is difficult to sneak in secretly. Now Chidong City is in a state of panic. The slightest disturbance will alarm the defenders of the city.
The next day, Song Que and others hid in Li Youzhi's team and headed towards Chidong City.
After arriving at Chidong City, they entered smoothly.
On the way to the granary, Song Que and more than 20 other people left the team.
Afterwards, Song Que and others hid until night. Under the guidance of the map prepared by Li Youzhi, Song Que and others came to the vicinity of Xuehong's residence.
Tonight is also the time for Xuehong to leave.
In the yard, Xuehong summoned all his confidants, including some powerful generals, as well as a group of heavenly beings and extraordinary masters.
These people are the foundation of Xuehong's survival. If they can be saved, they should be taken away as much as possible.
"Everyone, this battle is doomed to fail. His Majesty has ordered me to lead you to leave secretly and return to the Liyang Dynasty."
"I have arranged everything. You will leave with me tonight."
"As for the battle here, let it go."
Xuehong announced the decision in public.
The people present were extremely happy to hear the news, although it was a bit unreasonable to abandon the army and run away.
However, facing the inevitable defeat, he could save his life and not care about anything else.
No one made a noise, and no one questioned Xuehong's decision.
"Okay, let's set off immediately. We will leave through the east gate. We will travel light and not take any unnecessary things."
After announcing the decision, Xuehong took action immediately. These people must always be with him and not leak secrets, otherwise the civil strife will start immediately and it will be difficult for them to leave.
The group had nothing to say and took action immediately.
There were many servants and guards in the Xuehong Palace. These people could not be kept, otherwise they would definitely spread the news of their departure.
Xuehong was ruthless and directly ordered many masters to start slaughtering the servants and soldiers in the palace.
The gate outside the palace was handed over to the death warriors raised by Xuehong to guard, so as not to be discovered by others.
After completing all this, Xuehong and others left immediately.
Outside, Song Que, Zhao Gao and others got the Xuehong slaughter palace and gathered everyone.The news of Xuehong's escape.
"Sir Song, this Xuehong wants to run away, should we kill him immediately?"
Song Que was the main person on this trip, and Zhao Gao asked Song Que for his opinion.
"No, let him go, we will kill him halfway."
"Notify Li Youzhi, wait for an opportunity to attack Xuehong's palace, and expose the news of Xuehong's escape."
Song Que thought about it and made a decision.
In this situation, once the army knows that Xuehong has escaped, they will know that they have been abandoned, and they will definitely make a choice to join the Zhenbei Army.
In this way, there will not even be a large-scale war next.
This is an excellent opportunity for the North.
So, everyone lurked and followed secretly, hanging Xuehong from a distance to avoid being discovered by him.
One night passed like this.
The next morning, just after dawn, Li Youzhi came to Xuehong's palace.
Li Youzhi already knew that Xuehong had escaped, but he still had to see it with his own eyes and complete the task assigned to him by Song Que.
"Stop, who is it?"
Li Youzhi was stopped as soon as he reached the door.
"Inform the prince, Li Youzhi wants to see you."
The status difference between the two sides was huge, and Li Youzhi was not polite at all.
"Sorry, the prince is not seeing guests today."
There was no prince now, and the guard immediately refused.
"Hmph, you can't neglect military affairs. If you delay important matters, can you afford it? Hurry up and report."
Seeing the attitude of the guard, Li Youzhi knew that Xuehong must have really run away, so he became bolder.
"The prince has ordered that no one will be seen today, please go back."
The guard was firm.
"Come on, take him down."
Li Youzhi didn't waste any words and took action directly.
"You dare to rebel, brothers, stop them."
At this time, the guards could no longer care about Li Youzhi's purpose and had to stop the people.
Unfortunately, they were too few and were no match at all.
In just a moment, all the guards were captured, and Li Youzhi immediately stepped forward and pushed open the door.
"This, bastard, Xuehong, you have such a cruel heart."
At this moment, the palace was like a hell on earth, with dead bodies everywhere.
How could Li Youzhi not understand that Xuehong killed people to silence them in order to leave smoothly?
