Ji Mu looked towards the source of the voice. It was Princess Hua Ting, who was supposed to leave, leading Meng Tian, Xiao Lan, and Le Jian. They were led by the white horse cavalry.
"Princess Hua Ting?" Ji Mu raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion.
"General Ji Mu, you're quite relaxed. You've been doing well, haven't you?”Hearing Ji Mu's emotionless question, he didn't even greet him.
Princess Hua Ting, who had been surrounded by flowers since she was young, said unhappily for no reason.
"Princess, if you have nothing else to do, then don't disturb this general's cultivation. The place here is quite big, so the princess can walk around freely.”Ji Mu didn't mind. He raised his bow and turned around, ready to shoot again.
This disrespectful attitude made Princess Hua Ting stomp her foot and say,""Humph! If it wasn't for you, bengong would have returned to the empire long ago. Why would I stay here? Don't you know that this place is already surrounded by Jurchen cavalry?”
This little girl's attitude almost made Little Lan and Meng Tian's jaws drop in shock.
When had the noble Princess of Hua Ting ever shown such an attitude in front of others? Furthermore, he was facing a man?
However, Ji Mu didn't think so. He waved his hand and summoned a white horse cavalryman."Ask Miao Le Pianya to come and see me."
"Yes, my lord!" The white horse cavalry soldier bowed and quickly left.
"There's no need to investigate at all. According to the information I've received, the Jurchen cavalry is only four to five hundred li away from here.”Although she was a little unhappy with Ji Mu's attitude, Princess Hua Ting still waved her hand and continued,"
"The distance of four to five hundred li isn't too far, but the Jurchen army is surrounding us from all directions. There are at least three to four legions of them. It was because we discovered them that we allowed Granny Shang to return to the court first. We came to inform you quickly and also to repay your kindness for escorting us earlier.”
"At least three or four legions? We've already wiped out one division and scared away two, and now we've gathered so many of them. Aren't the Jurchen tribes afraid of being defeated by the armies of the other cities and ruining their plan to besiege the giant city of Zhong Province?”
Zheng Qiu frowned when he heard this.
"Since the Outsiders dared to do this, they naturally have something to rely on. What we should consider now is how to avoid this crisis.”Meng Tian said.
Out of instinctive friendliness, Ji Mu nodded in agreement with Meng Tian's words.
The rest of the white horse cavalry generals did not say anything.
...........
The eastern foot of Yao Mountain, also known as the Great Dragon Mountain, was located in the eastern section of Funiu Mountain. It was named after Yao's grandson Liu Lei, who built the Yao Temple to worship his ancestors. It was one of the ten famous mountains in the north.
The main peak of Yao Mountain, Tianzhu Peak, was over a thousand feet above sea level and covered tens of thousands of square meters. The peaks were stacked, and there were many water sources and lush forests.
After receiving Princess Hua Ting's reminder, Ji Mu finally decided to follow Meng Tian's suggestion and retreat to Mount Da Long to prevent Fushan City from being implicated by them.
However, Ji Mu still ordered Miao Le to lead a hundred men of white horse cavalry to hide around Fushan City to investigate the Jurchen cavalry and report to him at any time.
Arriving at the peak of Tianzhu Peak, the nearly fifteen thousand white horse cavalry were extremely busy.
They cut down a large number of trees and dug out a large number of rocks. Other than building simple houses, they also set up fortifications around them.
After completing all the defensive fortifications, the White Horse Cavalry once again threw themselves into their busy training.
From time to time, intelligence came from Fushan City and soon confirmed Princess Hua Ting's speculation.
In less than half a day, a large number of Jurchen cavalrymen appeared near Fushan City. A rough estimate was that there were at least 150,000 of them.
........
"My lord, Lord Miao Le has reported that Fushan City has been razed to the ground by the Jurchen cavalry. Now, the Jurchen cavalrymen were ready to go and were rapidly approaching the Great Dragon Mountain.”
As night fell, just as Ji Mu had his dinner and was resting under a tree, a scout who was hiding in Fushan City quickly came to report with an anxious expression.
"What is it? This group of damned aliens!" The white horse cavalrymen shouted in shock and anger, clenching their fists in anger.
"This is too despicable. In order to prevent Fushan City from being affected, we have already moved a few days in advance.”Princess Huating was clumsily learning how to fill her stomach with roasted meat. When she heard this news, she immediately shouted angrily.
"Inform the entire army and prepare for battle. Also, hide the news of the destruction of Fushan City. Send people down the mountain to investigate the traces of the Jurchen cavalry and report at any time.”Ji Mu's face was calm, and he didn't panic at all.
"You? How can you have so many? You guys are also responsible for the massacre of the Floating Mountain City. It's fine if you didn't immediately send troops to avenge them, but you actually want to hide the truth?”Hearing Ji Mu's order, Princess Hua Ting's face couldn't help but turn red.
Ji Mu ignored him and continued to make arrangements in an orderly manner.
Ji Mu was not a cold-blooded person, but he was not a saint either.
Bringing the people of Fushan City along was a burden, and retreating to Great Dragon Mountain to attract the firepower of the Jurchen cavalrymen was already considered to have done his best. If there were any more, there was probably no other way.
