Chapter 637

Fang Xuanling's thoughts are actually similar to Li Er's.

This is the most reasonable deduction!

"Your Majesty, my view is the same as Old Li's; we bet the Goguryeo people will not retreat to the riverside."

Both of them accept this bet.

A meaningful smile appears on Qin Mu's face.

"Since it's a bet, there must be a stake. The loser will dance in public on the city wall to reward the army!" Dancing in public is not a big deal.

However, such a punishment easily reminds people of Jieli, Fuyun, and Songtsen Gampo. Li Er and Fang Xuanling's psychological pressure increases sharply.

Why did they bet for no reason?

Both of them regret it a bit.

If they lose, their lifelong reputation...

City wall.

From far away, one can see that on the opposite bank of the river, the two armies have already started fighting.

But the distance is too far to see the details clearly.

Because of the bet, Li Er is very uneasy in his heart.

Although Li Er believes in his judgment very much, thinking it is unlikely that unexpected situations will occur.

But after all, he is facing Qin Mu, and Qin Mu's previous predictions have never gone wrong!

This makes him inevitably hold a trace of doubt about himself, even if he is incomparably certain in his reason.

Looking at Qin Mu, he is calm and composed, gazing into the distance.

He cannot see the details clearly, but he can still see the general trend.

The Goguryeo army is vast, with hundreds of thousands of people spread out. It is like a huge, shaggy carpet laid on the earth.

It looks quite imposing.

In contrast, the Qin army opposite seems much thinner.

Not long after, the front part of the Goguryeo army suddenly becomes chaotic.

Standing on the city wall, one can only see what looks like a wave in front, desperately pushing the crowd backward.

Swish, swish, swish...

The wave moves from far to near.

Li Er and Fang Xuanling then see clearly that the Goguryeo army is in a great rout.

....... Begging for flowers... 0

All the soldiers turn and flee backward, pushing each other, so from a distance it looks like a wave pushing backward.

How can this be?

They didn't see anything incredible, so how did the Goguryeo army start to rout?

Li Er stares with wide, disbelieving eyes.

These Goguryeo people are truly unreasonable!

The rear army has no idea what happened in the front. But everyone in the front is turning and fleeing backward. The rear army is pushed and rubbed, and they also turn and flee backward.

Behind them is the surging river water!

In just a short while, the Goguryeo army has retreated to the riverside. They are truly fighting with their backs to the river, with no way out! But the soldiers in the front are still desperately squeezing backward.

Many people are squeezed into the river.

The people at the very back, unwilling to be squeezed down like this, start hacking wildly with their knives. It evolves into a big chaotic fight.

Li Er looks at Qin Mu awkwardly.

This time, he and Fang Xuanling have already lost the bet.

But he doesn't understand why Qin Mu still hasn't ordered the warships in the river to fire giant rocks?

The north bank of the river is densely packed with Goguryeo people. One rock down could smash a large area to death.

What a good opportunity!

Qin Mu has been expressionlessly observing the situation in the battlefield.

Goguryeo soldiers are constantly being pushed into the water. Wearing armor, falling into the water is death.

Qin Mu is as if petrified, motionless, just watching quietly.

Until more and more soldiers in the rear are hacking wildly with knives. Fewer and fewer people are falling into the water.

At this moment.

Qin Mu finally raises his hand and beckons gently.

A large red command flag is waved.

On the river surface, the trebuchets on more than a dozen warships fire in unison.

Hundreds of giant rocks fall from the sky, smashing onto the heads of the Goguryeo army on the north bank.

Like a scene of the end of the world!

The earth trembles continuously, and the giant rocks roll wildly among the crowd, like the feeling of crushing in a rice field. In the blink of an eye, 10,000 soldiers are turned into a bloody path paved on the ground.

The shock brought by the volley of giant rocks becomes the last straw that breaks the Goguryeo army.

At that moment, the Goguryeo army is shocked!

Just like a herd of horses startled, exactly the same.

They start to abandon their weapons and run wildly for their lives; even if there is surging river water in front of them, they jump down without hesitation!

That feeling of despair is something only Goguryeo Wang Gao Jianwu can understand.
