Chapter 1091 He and that man will fight to the death!
The Dai Viet Army advanced rapidly, while the Northern Desert Army suffered defeat after defeat.
Another month later, the army finally arrived at the capital of the Northern Desert.
In the Beimo Palace, the King of Beimo was furious:
"Useless! You are all a bunch of useless rubbish! You were beaten in your own home, and not only could you not drive them out, you even retreated step by step, and let them chase you all the way to Kyoto. You are really a bunch of idiots! What's the point of me keeping you around? Huh? What's the point? All of you go to hell!"
In the hall, all the ministers of Beimo knelt on the ground in silence. No one dared to speak when the King of Beimo was furious.
Kneeling in the front were the great general Nisbi, who had one arm hanging, and the dusty third prince.
As for the unfortunate fourth prince, he had already become a prisoner of the Dai Viet army in the city of Gugan.
He sent his most capable general to protect the country and his two most promising princes, but only two of them came back.
Not only did he lose a son, but the general who protected the country was also seriously injured and could not face the enemy head-on, resulting in his forced retreat back to Kyoto.
King Beimo was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
However, he had no other options except losing his temper.
Now hundreds of thousands of Dai Viet soldiers are at the gates of the city. Seeing that the capital city is about to be lost and he is about to go from being a king to a slave of a conquered nation, the King of Beimo is both angry and anxious.
He paced back and forth in front of the throne like a trapped beast, and in a fit of rage he picked up a teacup from the tray held by the maid and threw it down.
The teacup just hit the head of the great general who was kneeling in front. The scalding hot tea flowed down his hair and the tea leaves hung on his hair, making him look extremely embarrassed.
The kneeling General Nisbi didn't even dare to raise his head, letting the teacup explode on his head and the tea flow all over his face.
Hidden under his wet hair was his humiliated and resentful face.
General Nisbi's hatred for Qiao Ran reached its peak at this moment, and he wished he could rush out and fight her to the death.
It’s all because of that damn woman!
If it weren't for the flaming oil she provided, he wouldn't have lost so miserably, and he wouldn't have gone from being a victorious general to a drowned dog abandoned by the king.
He and that man will fight to the death!
Qiao Ran outside the city had no idea that she was being hated with all her might. She was still urging the soldiers to make preparations for the siege.
The dozen or so high platforms were rebuilt, and the catapults and three crossbows were placed on them.
The soldiers were adjusting the angle and height. This battle was crucial. Taking Kyoto would be equivalent to taking over the Northern Desert.
As long as the King of Northern Desert surrenders, their trip to Northern Desert will be considered a victory.
Everyone's face was filled with the joy of impending victory. As long as they won this battle, they would be considered meritorious people. Not only could they return home safely, they would even receive rewards and be able to send more money back to their families. Maybe they could even go home to marry a wife and have a few more chubby babies.
The people of Dai Viet are in high spirits and full of joy.
On the other side of Beimo, everyone had a solemn look on their face and their moods were complicated.
No one wants to see their country destroyed, but this country doesn't seem to be doing that well.
In addition to the cold weather and frequent lack of food and clothing, the powerful people in the Northern Desert are also very corrupt. They desperately oppress and exploit the poor people, making it impossible for many people to survive.
As for the girls in Beimo, unless they are very ugly and cannot catch the eyes of those powerful people, any girls with a little bit of beauty will be snatched away and become tools for the powerful people to vent their lust.
Many people's sisters and relatives were robbed or killed, and many families were broken up. These were all brought upon them by the powerful people in Beimo.
So, will they still work hard for such powerful people?
