"Report"

A guard outside ran in in a panic.

"Insolent! How unbecoming is it to be in such a hurry in the main hall!"

Gao Ayu was very dissatisfied when he saw this scene and yelled angrily.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, something bad has happened. Five thousand soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty have arrived outside the capital."

The guard knelt down and said hurriedly.

"What!

how is this possible,

Didn’t Gao Taixiang lead an army of 100,000 to fight?

Why did they appear outside the capital?"

Duan Zhixiang asked with a shocked look on his face.

"Reporting to your Majesty, the Song army is saying outside the city that Marshal Gao Taixiang and his 100,000 troops have been completely destroyed."

The guard lowered his head and said.

"It's nonsense,

How could an army of one hundred thousand against five thousand be completely destroyed?

Your Majesty, please punish this guard for his evil words and deceiving the public!"

Prime Minister Gao Ayu was the first to not believe it and quickly scolded him.

Gao Taixiang is not a man who talks about war on paper like Zhao Kuo. There has been no war in Dali in recent years.

But in the past few years, we have fought wars with southern and western countries.

Gao Taixiang's position as marshal was not achieved through nepotism.

He has solid military exploits with him,

I dare not say that he is victorious in every battle, but everyone in the Dali army admires him.

"Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, spare your life,

The villain dare not talk nonsense, everything the villain says is the truth.

The five thousand troops of the Song Dynasty are outside the city gate at this moment.

The city defender sent someone to report to the palace, asking for support."

When the guard heard this, he quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy.

All the ministers looked at each other and knew that this matter was probably not false.

Enemy troops approaching the city is no small matter. Who dares to joke about such a thing? Are you tired of living?

"I still can't believe that a mere 5,000 soldiers from the Song Dynasty can defeat my 100,000-strong army."

Gao Ayu still insisted on his opinion.

"This is not impossible, Huang Yaoshi is a master of martial arts.

I heard that he wanted to kill the emperor and seize power.

It was because they were holding a martial arts conference, but the emperor sent people to disrupt it.

If there are five thousand martial arts people, it is still possible to defeat my army of one hundred thousand!"

Another minister next to him stood up and said.

When the five thousand martial arts people heard this, the ministers of the DPRK and China started talking about it.

"How is this possible? That is an army of 100,000 people. Even if you are a martial artist, it is impossible for the whole army to be destroyed, right?"

"Is Gao Taixiang a waste?

Even if there were 100,000 ducks, it would still take a lot of effort for the Song State to catch them.

It only took a few days to lose?"

"But it is true that the Song army is approaching the city.

If the entire army of 100,000 people had not been wiped out, why had there been no news at all these days?

The martial arts skills of this martial artist cannot be compared to those of soldiers in the army!"

"You're right. People in the martial arts have great martial arts skills.

They don't even need any siege equipment to leap onto the city."

"That's right, my guard commander can fight dozens of ordinary soldiers alone.

If there are really five thousand martial arts people, then Marshal Gao will be in trouble."

"Anyway, it's true that the Song army has arrived outside Beijing. I'm afraid the Gao family will be in trouble."

"If there are really five thousand martial arts people, can our country be able to defend it?"

"Be careful!"

Needless to say, the ministers can also imagine that if there are really five thousand martial arts people, they are afraid that the city of Dali will not be able to defend it.

In order to fight the Song Dynasty, almost all the soldiers in Dali were mobilized.

Even in Dali City, there are currently only three thousand guards for the imperial palace, and only three thousand soldiers guarding the city.

It is simply a dream to rely on these 6,000 people to resist 5,000 martial arts warriors.

At this time, the ministers were not thinking about how to deal with these five thousand soldiers.

Instead, he was thinking about how to save his life.

Everyone is anxious like ants on a hot pot,

Walk around there and exchange views with the people around you.

"That's enough, shut up!

You go to Tianlong Temple immediately and ask the senior monks of Tianlong Temple to come and help.

Come with me to the city wall to see what's going on.

In addition, send people home to gather your guards to help defend the city!

Let the government officials mobilize the strong men in the capital to help defend the city!"

When Duan Zhixiang saw these people's appearance, he angrily slapped the armrest of the dragon chair and issued several orders in succession.

"I obey the decree!" Dali's ministers responded quickly.

Duan Zhixiang returned to the harem, put on a suit of armor, led two thousand palace guards, and got on a sedan chair to the city wall.

On the way, he remembered that all members of the Duan family in Dali had practiced martial arts.

He also ordered people to inform the clan and lead his family guards to help defend the city.

The ministers also informed the servants outside the palace,

But it was different from what Duan Zhixiang thought. They sent people home to clean up Xinrou.

If something goes wrong, run away immediately!

Even Gao Ayu is no exception,

He ordered people to go home and let his family escape through the secret passage that had been prepared for hundreds of years.

Duan Zhixiang led his guards to the city wall.

All the ministers also arrived one after another, and they saw five thousand soldiers outside the city at a glance.

And a handsome young man wearing white clothes sitting on a horse.

This is actually true!

Seeing this scene,

Even though the ministers of Dali were prepared, they were still surprised.

Duan Zhixiang couldn't believe it even more,

Because he could tell that these soldiers were not martial artists, but ordinary soldiers.

Of course they are stronger than ordinary soldiers, but they are not out of the category of soldiers yet.

But if they were not martial arts people, where were the 100,000 troops led by Gao Taixiang?

Could it be that the Song Dynasty used these five thousand people as a cover to

There was still a large army behind, but Gao Taixiang underestimated the enemy and entered the enemy's ambush?

Duan Zhixiang's mind went back and forth, and he made up many plots in his mind.

"Are you the Emperor of Dali?
