Chapter 608 The City of Hell
Thousands of Korean troops gathered in the city were very easy to receive military orders.
Under the orders of officers at all levels, they quickly rushed towards the spreading fire... blocking the spreading speed of the fire.
However, for the first time on the city wall, the Korean army, which was completely in chaos, was not so easy to receive orders due to fear and shock...
Of course, even if the military orders are sent to the city wall, and under the smoke of gunpowder, the fearful Korean army wants to withdraw from the city wall, it depends on whether the tiger and leopard army outside the city agrees or not...
Why do you say that? When the chaotic Korean army finally recovered from the roar of officers at all levels and was preparing to evacuate the city walls while the artillery fire attacks. The second round of flowering bullets shot by the Tiger and Leopard Army was already mixed with a sharper whistling, and came over their heads again and smashed them towards them...
The whistling flowering bomb exploded... The Korean army, which had just recovered its order and calm, had not had time to evacuate, but in a new round of explosions and steel storm, they fell into chaos again...
Of course, the chaos was caused by hundreds of Korean troops, either being blown to the ground, life and death were unknown, or being directly blown into a pile of minced meat by flower bullets, and even a complete body could not be left behind...
The city wall defenders were in chaos in the new round of artillery fire. The Korean army, which was controlling the fire in the city, was not much better...
The North Korean army with thousands of people finally managed to control the fire and no longer spread outward...
However, the whistling down and an explosion occurred, once again ignited the fire that had just been extinguished.
Not only that, I don’t know if it was the Tiger and Leopard Army who did it intentionally or why. This round of whistling flower bullets had dozens of shots that directly deviated from the fire and landed deeper into Yizhou City...
Therefore, before the old fire has been extinguished and controlled, a new fire has been formed...
Of course, this is not the most important thing. With the rapid spread of the new fire and the convergence with the old fire, hundreds of Korean troops sandwiched between these fires, before they had time to escape, the burning fire quickly surrounded them. Then, it burned into hundreds of firemen who kept making screams...
Faced with one sudden accident after another, the main general's heart, which had just relaxed, became nervous again.
The expression on his face became more and more serious...
He clenched his fists, looked at hundreds of soldiers with red eyes, and was burned to death by the fire, but there was no solution...
Of course, as a commander, he was angry. He did not forget his responsibilities...
After a hint of pain flashed across his face, he said firmly: "As long as the artillery fire of the Tiger and Leopard Army does not end, the fire will not be controlled... Instead of letting the soldiers waste their physical strength or even their lives here... it is better to give up the house on the front line of the city wall."
"I order the soldiers involved in the fire extinguishing to retreat quickly... One mile behind the city wall, I will dismantle a fire barrier for me to bring it out, so that the fire will not spread throughout the city. I don't believe that the cannons arranged by the Tiger and Leopard Army outside the city are even more powerful than the red-clothed cannons, and can directly cover the entire Yizhou city with flowering bullets..."
The chief general of the Korean army was destined to pay the price for his contempt for the Tiger and Leopard Army...
More than 300 artillery fired five rounds of fire at the city wall, and more than a thousand flowering bullets... the entire city wall was already trapped in a sea of fire. As for the sky above the city wall, thick smoke was rolling everywhere, almost covering half of the Yizhou city...
However, as the direct craftsman of this artillery fire strike, such a result obviously did not meet Zhao Yun's requirements...
So, more than 300 cannons quickly adjusted the muzzle...
In addition to fifty artillery pieces, we continued to bombard the city walls and completely wiped out the Korean army outside the city walls...
The remaining artillery directly fired flowering bullets at various places in Yizhou City in companies...
When a new round of flowering bullets crossed the city and exploded everywhere in Yizhou City, a picture that caused the North Korean general to suffer for a lifetime appeared directly in front of the general...
More than a dozen fire scenes scattered throughout Yizhou City quickly formed in the city and spread around.
At the same time, a new round of flowering bombs shot by the Tiger and Leopard Army exploded again, and more fire scenes were blown up in the city.
Round after round, soon, Yizhou City, which was within the view of the North Korean general, was covered by fire and thick smoke...
At this time, the expression on the Lord General's face was no longer solemn, but despair...
With a pale face, he said to himself: "It's over, Yizhou City is over, and the eight thousand soldiers under my general's command are also over... The Tiger and Leopard Army is not attacking Yizhou City. They obviously want to turn Yizhou City into ashes and burn all the eight thousand soldiers under my command to death in Yizhou City..."
Eight thousand soldiers, plus thousands of people... were all burned to death in Yizhou City. Faced with this result that was about to become a reality... Everyone around the Lord General felt a chill...
What's more, some people are strong and have already shown unprecedented fear.
Because, in despair, they subconsciously thought of the heart-wrenching screams that the soldiers under their command made before they died after being covered by the fire...
So, an idea quickly formed in their minds, that is, escape.
Even if you can't escape, you have to fight the Tiger and Leopard Army to the death. Even if you die at the gun of the Tiger and Leopard Army, you don't want to be burned to death.
However, what they did not expect was that at this moment, they had no chance to choose a way to die...
As the fire quickly formed a circle of fire around Yizhou City and spread rapidly to the center of Yizhou City... the Koreans and soldiers scattered in the city were like frightened rabbits, and under the pursuit of the fire behind them, they quickly gathered at the location of the main general!
As more and more people gathered, the fires that spread from all directions became closer and closer...
When some of the Korean troops gathered on the outermost periphery began to be engulfed by the fire and died in pain.
Many soldiers with desperate faces committed suicide by wielding their swords when they knew they could not escape death.
In their eyes, instead of being burned by fire and dying in pain, it is better to give yourself a breaking pleasure...
Soon, this suicide practice spread among the North Koreans...
Facing the scene in front of me full of blood and very tragic, just like the Shura hell...
The main general's pale face also showed a firm expression before his death.
He pulled out his sword, put it on his neck, and said to his subordinates, "Everyone, this may be our best way to die. As your chief general, I am sorry for you, I will take a step first..."
After saying that, the sharp sword easily cut open his neck. The blood was donated continuously, like a fountain, gushing out of the knife.
Then, the main general who was surrounded by everyone fell heavily to the ground with a look of reluctance...
The main generals were all dead, not to mention the others...
After the fire burned for about six hours, many Korean corpses were burned into the ashes of the city. A camp of tigers and leopards stepped on the still very hot land, smelled the very strong burning smell in the air, and drove into Yizhou City...
Half an hour later, when hundreds of tiger and leopard troops walked out of Yizhou City and came to Zhao Yun to report to him, almost all the soldiers' faces were covered with pale pale... What's more, many people squatted on the side of the road when they rushed out of Yizhou City and began to vomit...
Because the tragic scenes in the city are even hell for them...
As the leader of this shelling, although Zhao Yun did not enter the city, he could think of the tragic scenes in the city. After all, with ordinary people, more than 10,000 people in Yizhou City were burned to death by himself.
A fire strike destroyed a town and burned more than 10,000 people to death. If this matter was passed back to the country and reached the Ming Dynasty in Nanjing, many people would definitely say that Zhao Yun was a butcher, and that the Tiger and Leopard Army did this contrary to nature. However, Zhao Yun didn't care at all...
Because, for Zhao Yun, as long as the Han people died, no matter how many people were burned to death, it would have no meaning...
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun shouted directly: "Everyone cheers me up, don't forget that you are the Tiger and Leopard Army..."
"Are you burned more than 10,000 people to death? What's there to be afraid of... Have you forgotten that when the Later Jin Tartars entered the pass, they killed thousands of people and even slaughtered the city directly..."
"Compared with the Tartars, our methods are nothing? Besides, none of the people who burned here are we Han people... For us, these Koreans are still alive..."
"Everyone cheered up the general... Go to the city immediately, pass Shinyiju, and attack Pyongyang, where the North Korean palace is located... As long as we take Pyongyang, we will win more than half of the battle against North Korea!"
Amid Zhao Yun's scolding, everyone's pale faces finally saw a trace of blood...
A regiment commander from the Liaodong Tiger and Leopard Army followed closely and added: "Brothers, the commander said it well. These Koreans are all dead... Everyone should know that when the 20,000 Korean troops attacked our Liaodong, the means of dealing with our Ming people was even more tragic than this..."
"I clearly remember that as long as the men, elderly, and even children caught by the Korean army will be killed directly... As for women, they will be captured by them and ravaged at will, and then killed... Think about the Ming people who died at the hands of North Koreans, and they will no longer be afraid or afraid..."
After saying that, the regiment commander directly asked Zhao Yun: "General, the general has a great revenge on life and death with these North Koreans. The general hopes that the commander of the army can send our regiment as the vanguard and seize Pyongyang with the speed of marching..."
