The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 635 The Last Power
Goryeo general Xiang Yu was returning after winning the battle. On the way, he received an imperial edict from the Goryeo emperor, asking him to quickly lead his troops to the front line to defend Daxia.

At the same time, another news was received that the Goryeo army was defeated miserably on the front line and all the armies were wiped out.

Even Goryeo Marshal Jin Yu died in the battle.

Xiang Yu was completely stunned when he received the news.

Originally, they planned to unite all their armies to defend together. As long as they did not leave the city, they would definitely win.

No matter what the front line was, there were only [-] to [-] troops, and all of them were elite troops from Goryeo. How could they fail so quickly?

Looking at the news and imperial edict, Xiang Yu's whole body felt numb.

Jin Yu led so many armies and failed.

Most of the people in his hands have only fought one battle and are still considered new recruits.

Using these people to deal with Daxia's army is simply asking for death.

At this time, Xiang Yu even had an impulse in his heart, that is, to escape quickly with his people, or to simply surrender to Daxia.

If the fight continues, there will be only a dead end. The tens of thousands of troops under his command cannot stop Daxia at all.

After thinking for a moment, I still couldn't make up my mind.

The generals around him were also completely confused after reading the imperial edict.

I originally thought that after the Japanese pirates were eliminated, all of them would be promoted and rich.

Received generous rewards from the court.

Especially after they defeated the Japanese pirates, they also seized a large amount of money from the Japanese pirates.

Xiang Yu ordered some to be distributed to their soldiers.

They are all our own people, and they will naturally not tell the court if they get any benefits.

After going back and getting another reward from the court, you can live a comfortable life in the future.

Let them deal with Daxia now. Everyone looked heavy.

Jin Yu is Goryeo's God of War and the strongest general.

Even he couldn't beat him, and the others didn't have much confidence.

"General, I am afraid that our small army cannot stop the Xia army at all.

Isn't it simply a matter of death for us to go to the front line? "

"Why are we so unlucky? We finally have the chance to live a good life, but now we encounter something like this again!"

"Who came up with such a bad idea? I will definitely kill him when I get back!"

Many generals showed dissatisfaction.

Xiang Yu quickly calmed down, after all, the entire army was counting on him.

If even he becomes helpless, then it's really over.

Xiang Yu tried his best to appear very calm.

He opened his mouth and reprimanded: "Shut up, what are you talking about? If these words reach the court, the emperor will definitely punish you."

Seeing Xiang Yu's unhappy look, you all shut your mouths and looked only at him.

Although they are not complaining, it can be seen from their faces that they do not want to die.

Xiang Yu continued: "Since it is the emperor's decree, we must obey it.

If we rebel against the imperial court, we will definitely be cut off from all food and grass.

You still have to die!
Besides, the army led by General Jin Yu was completely wiped out.

In the entire Goryeo, we are the only one who can still go out with this army.

If you don't send us to deal with Daxia, who else can you send? "

"It's not that we don't want to contribute to the court, but we know that we are going to die if we rush forward. What's the point of risking death like this?
We brothers also have families, and we all live on our little food and salary.

We don’t regret dying, but what will our family do after we die? "

Seeing that they could not convince Xiang Yu, the generals had no choice but to play the family card with him.

Xiang Yu sighed deeply, and his expression softened a lot.

"Of course I can understand your feelings, general! But we still have to do what we should do.

At least we can't let the court know that we are disobeying the decree.

Otherwise, this would be a serious crime that would destroy the nine tribes! Xiang Yuzhengse said.

There seemed to be some room for maneuver in his tone.The general under his command quickly asked: "What does the general mean?"

“Anyway, Jin Yu has been defeated, and the troops we lead are all new recruits and their numbers are small.

Even if the battle was defeated, the court could not say anything.

We only need to rely on the city wall for defense.

As soon as they saw something was wrong and couldn't resist it, they immediately retreated and relied on the next city to continue their defense.

It is absolutely impossible for us to defend the city desperately.

Let the imperial court send us more equipment and reinforcements, which will take as long as it takes.

In addition, even if we are defeated, as long as we have the army in hand, the court can't do anything to us.

Every time he retreats, the entire city must be burned down, and he must not leave a grain of food for Xia's army. "

Xiang Yu was worthy of being the commander-in-chief of the army, and he quickly thought of a way to deal with it.

The eyes of his generals suddenly lit up.

As long as they don't risk their lives to die, everything is fine.

They all started to flatter me: "The general has a solution. The general is really following the right person."

"My lord general, he is now the general marshal of our Goryeo.

The emperor has issued an imperial edict, this is a certainty! "

"Yes, you are right. The Emperor has specially named you Grand Marshal. From now on, we all have to change our names and call ourselves Marshal."

……

Xiang Yu has longed for the position of marshal for a long time, but now he doesn't feel any happy.

He knew that this marshal was like a red-hot iron plate, and it was not easy to sit firmly.

If you are not careful, you will fall into an abyss of eternal destruction.

"Okay, save the nice words for later. From now on, you will be walking on thin ice. If you make a wrong step, you will be doomed.

It’s better for everyone to be careful! "

Xiang Yu's eyes were full of endless sorrow.

Looking into the distance, it looks like hell.

But he had no choice but to know that his family would definitely be controlled by the imperial court.

As long as he has the slightest idea of ​​​​rebellion or disobeys the court's orders.

His family will all be killed as well.

Put away the imperial edict and let the whole army set off immediately.

At the same time, he sent scouts to quickly check the news of Xia Jun. He did not dare to confront Da Xia head-on.

A collision between the two armies must be avoided.

……

After Lin Hai finished cleaning up, all the useful people moved away.

The remaining old, weak, sick and disabled were centralized and managed.

Let these people work in the fields.

The food produced in Korea cannot be wasted.

Some people were left to garrison and lead the army to continue setting off.

After the main force of Goryeo was eliminated, no one could stop Xia Jun's attack.

They sent troops overnight and captured two cities again.

Already held one-third of Goryeo's territory in his hands.

Then the attack was blocked, and Xiang Yu led more than 6 troops to garrison the city.

The two sides once again faced off.

Lin Hai planned to concentrate his firepower again and continue the attack, not taking the opponent seriously at all.

"Your Majesty, Goryeo has sent an envoy to seek peace!"

Lin Hai was discussing the attack plan with Yuhuashi, and a subordinate came in to report.
