Chapter 259 Goryeo Destroyed
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
The war drums were ringing, and the Sui army began to attack Pyongyang City after destroying the reinforcements of Goryeo.
One by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty were climbing and then killing. Then one by one, one by one, began to shoot stones and fire bombs.
There were also soldiers who built high platforms in the distance and began to shoot into the city.
The Goryeo soldiers in the city were condescending and began to throw rolling wood, thunder and stones, shooting arrows, or golden soup.
The siege battle entered the tragic stage and people were dead all the time.
But Li Yuan was under the city, but his face was expressionless.
In war, there are immortals there.
Even if it is commanded by Bai Qi and Han Xin, people will die, and many people will die.
But as long as you capture the city and destroy Goryeo, everything is worth it.
Many of the people in the Central Plains have no land and little land. They are poor and have nothing, only one life. If they die in Liaodong, the court will give 30 acres of land.
If you survive and establish military achievements, you can also step closer.
Similarly, many common landlords have some land in their families and their ancestors have been brilliant, but now they are not as good as high or low. They are much worse than the aristocratic families, and are much stronger than the poor at the bottom.
It also happened to take this opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune.
Fighting war is the shortcut to getting promoted and making money.
At ordinary times, with aristocratic families, they are not the turn of promotion and wealth. Now, on a large number of battlefields, fighting with one's own life is an opportunity. As long as you don't die, you will be the best.
"Father, more than 20,000 people have died!"
Just then, Li Jiancheng spoke, "We have been attacking for five consecutive days and suffered huge losses. It's better to stop and take a breath!"
Li Yuan said coldly: "Ci didn't take charge of the army, only 20,000 people died, which is too few. Before 50,000 people died, it is all small matters. We are tired, we have many casualties, but the Goryeo people also have great casualties!"
"Our Sui army is advancing from north to south, pressing step by step, and taking steady steps. Goryeo takes care of both ends and can no longer bear it!"
"yes!"
Li Jiancheng said.
The army continued, continuing to attack.
Li Yuan held the hilt of the sword, and a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
Yang Guang's mother, Li Yuan's mother, is a half-sister.
Yang Guang should call him cousin.
Because of this relationship, the Emperor of Sui gave him the commander of the southern front to go to Goryeo, and even told him how to fight Goryeo, how to take action step by step, how to join forces with Silla, how to attack, etc.
In the early stage of the war, a large amount of food and grass were given, as well as various elite troops, etc.
This is trust, but also pressure.
Once something goes wrong, even if the house is not searched, it will be completely refrigerated.
He can't afford to lose, and he dares not lose.
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
Just the next day, the Sui army roared and began to enter Pyongyang.
The city of Pyongyang was broken, but the Goryeo army still resisted.
Li Yuan ordered: "Three days after washing the city, women will not be killed, men will not be killed, and all the remaining ones will not be killed!"
The Sui army began to attack and loot the city.
Li Yuan looked outside the city, his expression still cold.
After more than a year of continuous fierce battle, the Sui army suffered heavy losses and the soldiers were exhausted and needed to vent, otherwise they might mutiny and roar.
...
"Li Yuan led a hundred thousand troops to break the city of Pyongyang, looted for three days, and then burned Pyongyang. Soon he led his army north, and then worked with Zhang Xutuo to siege Liaodong, Liaodong was defeated, and Goryeo was destroyed!"
Looking through the memorial, Xiang Yu was very satisfied.
After more than ten years of preparation and more than a year of attack, Goryeo was finally destroyed.
In this battle, Li Yuan performed well.
Li Yuan led an army of 50,000 and Silla's 50,000 troops to attack Goryeo from the southern front, constantly attacking, with sharp and fierce attacks.
In particular, he surrounded the points and attacked the reinforcements, annihilated 30,000 reinforcements from Goryeo and killed the master Cailin.
Finally, it is more suitable for Zhang Xutuo to attack from north to south and conquer Goryeo.
In this war, it was very impressive.
Most importantly, Li Yuan rarely makes mistakes.
At the beginning of this war, Xiang Yu made the worst plans, such as the defeat of the army on the southern front and encirclement and annihilation; or the army on the northern front and the shortage of food and supplies, the collapse of the entire army.
Fortunately, none of these accidents happened.
The best situation has emerged.
"Li Yuan..."
Xiang Yu sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, those with ability can make a fortune anywhere.
Li Yuan is Yang Guang's cousin.
Li Yuan destroyed the Sui Dynasty and founded the Tang Dynasty.
Once upon a time, Xiang Yu wanted to find some excuses to kill Li Yuan directly, but in the end he gave up because he did not treat the symptoms.
Liu Yu is alive, will the aristocratic family dare to rebel?
Yuwen Yong is alive, does Yang Jian dare to rebel?
Chai Rong is alive, will Zhao Kuangyin dare to rebel?
Don't dare!
Don't dare!
Will Li Yuan rebel if he is alive?
Won't!
Li Yuan's personality is extremely cautious. Such a cautious personality will not rebel at all as long as he is not forced to the dead end. It is also a relative and can be used.
Relatives are unreliable, are outsiders reliable?
Of course, if Li Yuan made a big mistake, he would not forgive him, but would be killed directly.
...
At this moment, the Luoyang family began to rebel.
It was just that after a little storm, Yang Su took action.
Then, Gao Ying took action.
A family was found out, and the army began to dispatch, block the city, and began to confiscate the families. The so-called thieves were successively killed. Whether it was a thousand-year-old family or aristocratic family, under the attack of the Sui army, it dissipated like snowflakes.
Kill and kill!
Many male members of aristocratic families were successively killed, women were confiscated, and they entered the palace to become slaves.
When the aristocratic family took action, there was a lot of thunder, but when it really came, there were very little raindrops.
Three months later, when Xiang Yu led the army back to Luoyang, he could still feel the bloody storm.
"Your Majesty, there are refugees in Shandong who rebel!"
"In Jiangnan, there are traitors who are called emperor!"
At this moment, Yang Su reported that the people in various places were in chaos.
Behind these chaos is the support of aristocratic families, who give weapons and money, and incite local bandits to rebel.
"Interestingly, the turmoil in Luoyang has just subsided, and the local chaos has begun!" Xiang Yu said: "I inform the county magistrates in various places to kill the rebels, the main culprits will kill them, and the accomplices will be exiled to Liaodong!"
The voice is cold and ruthless.
The old place in Goryeo experienced wars, and it was because of its sparse population.
There is a piece of white paper, and there is no big family, so a large number of people without land and with little land can be moved there.
There is black soil, and the soil is fertile. Although the summer is short and the calories are low, crops can still be grown. However, crops are not suitable for the Central Plains and mainly require high-altitude and cold food.
At this moment, only by immigrating and a large number of people entering the Liaodong region can we completely gain a foothold.
It can be seen that some people in the mainland who have no land and little land moved to Liaodong to alleviate the local population pressure.
