What happened in the east corner, there will still be some disturbances in the north corner, but Dongyi? The barbaric foreign land, where everything is turned upside down, it is impossible for the Northern Han Dynasty to take a look in its direction.
Nowadays, the entire Northern Han Dynasty is fixated on the fighting in the grasslands outside the Great Wall, and they will not pay any attention to him. Neither does Chen Guo, whose attention is all on the Di people. Wei Guo, Zhongshan
Neither can the two countries, and their eyes have never strayed beyond Beiyu.
Only the Yan State, only the Yan State among the six kingdoms, would pay close attention to every move of the Goryeo Kingdom. It was actually invaded by a Dongyi barbarian country through the east corner and invaded its own land. Everyone in the Yan State hated Goryeo.
But now, the hearts of the senior officials of the Yan State are full of schadenfreude. The grandson of Goryeo suffered a lot this time. He was stabbed in the back door and lost a 30,000-strong left-behind force in the first battle, which caused the whole country to suffer.
The country is wide open, and the territory of a state is extremely empty. Even if Goryeo can calm down this wave of turmoil, its own strength will definitely suffer serious losses. Not to mention the extremely cruel and vicious methods of the Mohe people and Heishui Yi, the dignitaries of the Yan Kingdom only need to
Just thinking about it makes my scalp explode, it’s so miserable...
The fields after the summer harvest were densely covered with cavalry, and the waving flags were like the ocean.
The wind blew the big flag loudly, Jin Wuke laughed loudly, looked at the city not far away, and proudly ordered the generals around him: "Send the order, capture all the young men from the nearby villages, and ask them to follow us
, those who refuse will be killed directly!”
"Yes, leader!"
"We, the warriors of the Lieshui tribe, must not make unnecessary sacrifices, otherwise the Korean dog will laugh..." Looking at the city, Jin Wuke had a sneer on his lips.
He had long made up his mind to drive the young Goryeo soldiers to serve as the vanguard, letting them consume and disrupt the Goryeo army's strength and formation.
When the Goryeo army was in chaos, it was time for the warriors of the Yeolsu tribe to charge and fight.
He had only 20,000 cavalry in total, but Jin Wu led them to prepare for revenge, instead of leading them to die in vain.
Soon, pitiful cries came from the nearby villages. Jin Wuke sat on his horse with an expressionless face, thinking about how to capture the empty-defense territory of Yingzhou as quickly as possible. As long as the Lieshui tribe was ruthless
Tear off a big fat piece of meat from the Koreans. As long as the other Mohe people and Heishui people can see clearly the weakness of the Koreans, then they will attack in groups.
Jin Wu Ke never thought that he could avenge himself alone, and the Lieshui tribe would only play a leading role. When the Mohe people and the Heishui people all joined the war, that would be the real victory for Goryeo.
revenge.
In the dead of night, Choi Ji-hyo woke up quietly.
Enduring the pain, I moved my body in the dark woodshed, sat up with my back against the wall, and two lines of hot tears flowed down my cheeks.
The Cui family is a big family in Liucheng, with a big business. The entire land of the Cui family is owned by the Cui family. As the head of the Cui family, Cui Zhixiao is one of the best people within a hundred miles nearby. But now he has ended up in such a miserable situation.
Not only was the entire town occupied by the Mohe people, but only one of the boys in his family survived.
And if he hadn't refused to tell where the Cui family's treasury was, how could those damn Mohe people have spared his life?
In order to force Cui Jixiao to tell where the money was, the Mohe people even took the Cui family members and raped and ravaged them wantonly in front of Cui Jixiao. However, Cui Jixiao, who was determined to die, refused to say a word...
"Damn old guy, kill him——"
Jin Kui had no time to stop at Cuijiaji anymore. News came later that the tribal army had completely captured Nanpu County. His uncle Jin Wuke had led the army to attack Kaicheng County. As the vanguard of the entire army,
He must capture Liucheng as soon as possible and open the way to Kaicheng for the army.
In the early morning of the next day, smoke and dust rose on the horizon, and a muffled thunder-like sound came rolling in. People could clearly feel the vibrations of the ground when they were close to the ground. It was a group of cavalry galloping.
Most of these cavalry were wearing iron armor, but the armor seemed a bit ill-fitting. There were no felt blankets on the horses, and they looked like Hu Di's tribal weapons.
This is Jin Kui's Thousand Cavalry. In other words, these ill-fitting armors were only suitable for the water cavalry after the decisive victory in the battle. Before, they were all wearing cowhide armor.
Each person has two horses, and although there are only a thousand riders, the momentum is so great that from a distance, it even feels like a dark cloud.
At this time, all the Korean soldiers in Liucheng City went into battle. During the suffocating wait, the thunderous movement became louder and louder.
The three or four-foot-high city seemed to be trembling slightly.
Seeing this scene, the defenders' expressions changed. Liucheng is not a dangerous place. Although Kaicheng County is located in the border prefecture of Koryo, it is preceded by Nanpu County, which is not a border county. Moreover, Koryo
They have been the overlord of Dongyi for more than two hundred years. They only beat and oppress others, and no one has ever come to touch the tiger's butt. For a place like Liucheng, it is obvious that the city defense is aging and lax.
The city wall is less than four feet tall. There are no horse-faced towers, only four turrets at the four corners. There are no bed crossbows, kerosene and other necessities for city defense. There are also rolling logs and stones. In the past few days, houses outside the city have been demolished urgently.
They didn't even have time to cut down the trees outside.
Before they even started fighting, hundreds of defenders turned pale with fear and their bodies trembled slightly, but they could not retreat.
They are all local soldiers, and their whole family is in the Liucheng city behind. If they cannot defend this city wall and let the water cavalry attack and kill them, their families, wives and children will die tragically under the sword of the water cavalry.
How can we retreat under such circumstances?
They have all heard about the brutality of the Lieshui Tribe. They almost massacred the villages on the way. If they were allowed to come into the city, they would definitely end up slaughtering them all!
The defenders stared into the distance and discovered that what was approaching the city was a cavalry force!
This cavalry was running very fast, but as they got closer, they could tell that there were only about a thousand of them.
How could a thousand cavalrymen, no matter how brave they were, break through the city of Liuzhou, which was guarded by a group of garrison soldiers and thousands of young men?
"Our family members are all in Liucheng City. If Liucheng is lost, they will have no choice but to die due to the brutality of the Water Ministry!" Liucheng County Magistrate shouted: "For our family, for the sake of relatives and friends, we must defend the city!"
For a while, the morale in the city calmed down.
Approaching the checkpoint, a voice came from the cavalry, and the rolling cavalry stopped.
Of course, the formation cannot be maintained while running, but after stopping, a strict marching array will be automatically formed and maintained soon. And the one at the front is Jin Kui.
Jin Kui didn't hide behind just because he was the commander of Qianqi. The Dongyi people judge heroes by their bravery, and a general must take the lead!
Even if he is a Qianqi Commander, he is no exception!
What's more, Jin Kui is also Jin Wu Ke's nephew. When fighting, he must be brave enough to defeat the three armies.
Jin Kui snorted coldly at this time and looked up with a cold expression.
"The Korean dogs are vulnerable. In the last battle, I defeated a battalion of their troops with only a thousand cavalry. The Koreans can only rely on these city gates."
The cavalry commanders on the left and right had all experienced the last battle. They all laughed when they heard it.
If they only relied on the Lieshui Tribe's own strength, even if the 20,000 cavalrymen could capture the empty Yingzhou, they would definitely suffer heavy losses. However, Jin Wuke came up with a magic weapon for them to win.
The next day, Jin Kui came back with the cavalry. Smoke was billowing. The defenders and people in Gaoli at the top of the city hurriedly looked around and saw smoke and dust. The water cavalry drove thousands of people and shot arrows at them from time to time.
They were so frightened that they had to carry the simple ladder to the city and run forward.
There are men and women among these people, but most of them are young people. At this moment, they are all panicking and crying, with an expression of extreme despair.
The cavalry roared and galloped back and forth, driving these people away like cattle and sheep.
"Send the order and let Heshi Baiqi join these Korean dogs to attack the city. Tell these Korean dogs and let them know. Whoever dares to retreat in the battle will be killed without mercy!" The violent killing flashed across Jin Kui's face.
Then he gave the order.
Drive these Koreans, who are worthless in the eyes of the Liesui Ministry, to serve as siege vanguards, and let the Koreans kill their own people!
Yu Jinkui seems to be the best method.
After consuming all Liucheng's troops, material resources, and morale, Liucheng will be a ripe fruit. It's time to let your cavalry make the final attack and seize it in one fell swoop.
Tens of thousands of Goryeo people were forced to rush towards the city.
Faced with this situation, Liucheng County Magistrate first closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his face was just cold, and he ordered: "Shoot!"
Just hearing the sound of "Puff", people suddenly fell to the ground one after another under the city. Many people were bloody and bloody, and their bodies were covered with large bloody wounds from arrows. Some people were not dead for a while, but just rolled to the ground and screamed miserably.
The people in the city were so frightened that they turned around and fled back, screaming wildly.
But Jin Kuina allowed them to retreat, and what he said before was not in vain. Not only did the hundreds of water cavalry in the crowd slash their swords at the retreating Koreans, but the water cavalry on the side who were always ready also immediately
Bow and shoot arrows.
There was only a few dozen steps away, and the crowd was so dense. Shooting arrows at the fleeing Goryeo people was a sure hit. Immediately, a large number of people died in the crowd, and many people were bleeding profusely, covering their bloody wounds.
He screamed and fell to the ground howling.
The Koreans were honest, they were like docile sheep, allowing themselves to be driven by the water cavalry.
Groups of Goryeo people, driven by cavalry, kept rushing towards the city.
One group died under the random arrows, and another group surged up.
At this time, it is difficult to say that the Korean people were trying to survive. It was just the difference between dying late and dying early. They numbly wanted to climb up and rush into the city.
Originally, there was a defense trench dug by Korean soldiers and civilians under the city of Liucheng a few days ago. It was one foot wide and seven or eight feet deep. However, people kept pushing in, and gradually the trench was filled with corpses.
Stepping on the corpses of their compatriots, the obedient Koreans continued to rush towards Liucheng.
These people continued to consume the arrow stones, morale, and more importantly, physical strength of the Liucheng defenders. Looking at this scene, Jin Kui couldn't help but laugh to the sky.
"Kill, kill. Kill all your own people, let me see what strength you have left to resist!"
The hundred columns of water cavalry that had infiltrated into the Korean people had only been injured more than a dozen so far, while five or six thousand Koreans had died.
There are tens of thousands of Koreans, and looking at this speed, it only takes a few hours.
At this time, another group of Koreans, driven by water cavalry, carried huge trees and crashed towards the city gate.
Once, twice, three times.
But in the blink of an eye, he was shot dead by the defenders at the top of the city.
However, after this group of Koreans died, some others, driven by water cavalry, continued to rush towards the city gate.
Finally, tens of thousands of Koreans died within three hours.
The blood gathered into a large area, and even turned into a river for a short time. Bodies lay scattered on the battlefield, and everyone's face was only numb in the end.
"The enemy soldiers are exhausted and supplies have been exhausted." Seeing this, Jin Kui raised his sword high and gave the order: "Attack the city!"
…
…
Kaiyang County, County City.
The atmosphere in the prefect's mansion was very depressing.
Li Baorong, the prefect of Kaiyang, was extremely anxious at this time and was sitting on the throne with a frown on his face.
Eighty miles away, at the foot of Liucheng City, the soldiers and horses of the Lieshui Department had begun to attack the city. Although there was no real sign on the first day, when the battle reports came, the people who took the lead became their own people. Now waves of battle reports are coming continuously.
But it made the people in the lobby feel more and more upset.
In the battle seven days ago, not only did Yingzhou lose its 30,000-strong army, but it also lost Yingzhou's military and political chiefs, as well as its secretary-general. Both the governor and chief secretary of Yingzhou were killed in that battle, and now only the governor's office remains.
Xia Zhizhong is still there. But Lao Zhizhong, who is nearly sixty years old, was so frightened that he couldn't afford to fall ill. Now it is a prefect like Li Baorong who makes the decision in Kaiyang County. "Alas!"
The evil bandits in the river are watching with eager eyes. It is hard to say whether Kaiyang City can be defended and how long it will last.
In the hall, there were more than a dozen people discussing matters at this time. Except for the prefect Li Baorong who was sitting in the upper position, they were all officials in the city.
These officials were usually dignified and calm, but now they all became depressed.
Li Baorong sat on it, looking at the officials below who had no idea, his expression extremely gloomy.
"Everyone, what has happened now is that we must think of a way. There are less than 3,000 defenders in Kaiyang City, but there are 20,000 troops of water evil bandits outside. The most hateful thing is that Jin Wuke and dog thieves are driving the people everywhere.
, used to attack the city. If Kaiyang City is allowed to attack like this, I am afraid that the city will be destroyed and the family will be destroyed in less than three to five days. Moreover, not only our Kaiyang City cannot be defended, but the entire Yingzhou cannot withstand such killings.
Even if the imperial court regains Yingzhou in the future, the land of all the counties will be empty after the war!" Li Baorong looked at the officials below with anxiety on his face. "Our country, Goryeo, is at the opportunity of national rejuvenation. This is a millennium.
This is a rare opportunity, and the difficulties in Yingzhou will destroy our hope of the rise of the Goryeo nation."
"My lord, all the officials have understood what you said. However, I wonder when the imperial court will send reinforcements? The reinforcements have not arrived for a long time. If we only rely on the defenders in the city to defend the city, it will not be enough to repel the evil bandits.
." Seeing that Li Baorong's face was getting more and more ugly, he knew that if he continued to talk like this, he was afraid that the prefect would become angry, so the official kept silent.
"Park Zhiying, what can you do?"
What the official said was not pleasant to listen to, but he also got to the point. Kaiyang's own military strength was simply not enough to save the city, and without reinforcements, nothing could be done. Li Baorong suppressed his anger and only turned his attention to the county general.
Pu Zhiying felt bitter in his heart. What solution could he come up with as a county general who obeyed orders? He considered the words and said: "Sir, although there are not many defenders in the city of Kaiyang, there are many big households in the city.
Let each household allocate some servants to guard the courtyard. If you put them all together, there must be more than a thousand people. Then recruit the men in the city, plus the army in the city, the total number can be 10,000, and they can stop it for a period of time.
The imperial court's reinforcements should have arrived by now."
This is an old method of defending the city, and it is an empirical method of defending the city. However, these common sense still apply at critical moments.
Li Baorong's face softened slightly after hearing this: "You are right, that's the truth. In that case, it's up to you to handle this matter."
"No." Pu Zhiying breathed a sigh of relief at this point. Next, the prefect's spearhead will no longer be directed at him.
As for letting big households hire people, it's not difficult.
First of all, the evil bandits in the rivers do not regard the Koreans as human beings at all. They will massacre villages and cities wherever they pass. Who can not be afraid of them?
These big households will only do the same. Moreover, I have been in Kaiyang's army for more than ten years, and I am familiar with many of the big households in the city. As long as I explain to them in detail the advantages and disadvantages after the city is broken, they will definitely agree.
"Then let's do this."
After leaving the prefect's mansion, Pu Zhiying went to the home of Pu Zhuorong, the richest man in the city, who also had the same surname as Pu. But when he arrived in front of Pu's mansion, he realized that something was wrong, and suddenly realized that this matter was not easy to do.
It turns out that as early as three days ago, Pu Zhuorong's family went to Jinyang, the capital, to join their relatives. Thirty thousand soldiers and horses in Yingzhou were wiped out, the governor and the long history were all dead. The big families in the city had lost confidence in Yingzhou, and now they have already died.
.
Pu Zhiying was shocked when he learned about this situation. He had been arranging his troops and city guards in the past few days after the bad news about the army came, and did not notice the movements of the big households in the city. He had expected such a change.
Immediately, I made a quick trip to the Kaiyang County Government Office. I learned the details of the changes in the big households from the county government's agents, and hurriedly distributed letters and stickers to the homes of the wealthy powerful people who had not yet left.
When Jin Kui's troops reached the gates of Kaiyang County, Pu Zhiying had gathered tens of thousands of people. Among them, there were more than 1,300 servants and guards from wealthy families, but they still stayed in Kaiyang City.
The number of large households now only accounts for 30% of the total number.
Six days later, Kaiyang City was destroyed. Hundreds of thousands of corpses lay beneath the city. Inside Kaiyang City, flames shot into the sky, dyeing half of the sky red.
A scene like a Shura field.
Rolling iron streams poured in from the breach. The light of swords and rain of arrows covered up all resistance. There were screams everywhere. Not only the defenders in the city were killed by the water cavalry, but also the common people. It can even be said that everything
