Chapter 1252 The Battle of the Ritual

On the sea to the south of Silla Kingdom, thousands of giant ships carrying hundreds of thousands of troops entered the bay of Jinhaidu. This was later to be the Port of Busan. It was a natural harbor. Large ships docked one after another and sent soldiers ashore.

Ten thousand troops quickly assembled on the shore.

At the same time, another army of hundreds of warships headed north along the west coast. This warship was fully loaded with 50,000 troops, including 20,000 naval troops and 30,000 Zhang Yun's troops. They would sail into the Han River and cut off

The retreat of Zhu Ye's army completely wiped out Zhu Ye's nearly 100,000 troops within the territory of Silla Kingdom.

Zhu Ye had completed his mission for Guo Song and massacred all the nobles and troops of Silla. Guo Song needed to annihilate this evil-ridden army in order to win over the people of Silla.

This is the difference between a chess piece and a chess player. Although Zhu Ye was brave and brave, he could only become a chess piece in the hands of Guo Song.

There are two ways to annex Silla. One is hard annexation, which involves directly forcibly occupying and changing dynasties. This method of annexation is crude and simple and does not take long, but it will cause constant troubles. Zhu Ye used this method to kill all Silla.

Noble, he took his place.

The other way is soft annexation, just like boiling a frog in warm water. It takes decades to slowly brainwash and transform. After a few decades, there are no Silla people in the land of Silla. They are all locals and people who have been sinicized.

Han people who immigrated from the Central Plains.

In fact, the Tang Dynasty's destruction of Goguryeo was a soft annexation. It moved a large number of Goguryeo people to the Central Plains, and then filled in the Han people. It was only because of the interference of the Khitan that the Tang Dynasty's soft annexation did not succeed, but instead benefited Silla.

people.

Guo Song also adopted a soft annexation method. He knew very well that hard annexation could be used to deal with the small country of Danluo, but not to deal with Silla. Brutal and tough methods were first of all morally untenable and would be widely opposed in the country, which would eventually make his heir

The policy cannot be continued.

Therefore, to deal with a country of the size of Silla, one must be patient, trade time for space, and gradually brainwash and replace people so that the people of Silla can change without knowing it, and complete changes can be achieved in a few decades.

annex.

Twenty miles away from where the Jin army landed was Jinhaidu, which was the last stronghold of Silla. The nobles in the capital originally wanted to escape to Jinhaidu, but they were all robbed and killed by Zhu Ye's army.

There are only a very small number of has-been nobles living in Jinhaidu, but most of them are refugees who have fled from various places. The small town that originally only had tens of thousands of people, has an influx of nearly 200,000 people, making Jinhaidu overwhelmed.

The news that the capital city had been breached caused everyone in Jinhai to panic. They could no longer flee south. The wealthy families with slightly better conditions all fled to the surrounding countryside.

At this time, Sun Haomin, the chief official of Jinhaidu, received news that an army of tens of thousands had landed at the bay. It seemed that they were not a bandit army, but an army from the Tang Dynasty.

The news spread quickly, and the city of Jinhai was filled with joy.

Guo Song's five-thousand-stone ship slowly docked. The boatman tied the cable and put it on the ship's plank. Guo Song stepped off the ship. The soldiers on the shore knelt down and saluted.

At this time, Li Bing came forward with several officials and said: "Your Highness, these officials from Jinhaidu are here to pay homage to His Highness!"

Several officials did not expect that the King of Jin of the Tang Dynasty would come to Silla in person. They knelt down and saluted tremblingly, "Your Highness, Sun Haomin, the official of Jinhaidu, pays homage to His Highness!"

Sun Haomin speaks fluent Chinese. If it weren't for the fact that his official title was Shichen, unlike the Tang Dynasty, Guo Song would not have felt like he was in a foreign country.

The soldier brought a chair, Guo Song sat down and said, "Everyone, please get up!"

Several officials stood up, and Guo Song asked: "Excuse me, Ambassador Sun, what is the population of Jinhai now?"

"Reporting back to your highness, there are almost 200,000 people gathered, most of whom have fled from various places. We have to give porridge, but the food in the warehouse is almost running out."

"We can provide some food support, but I want to know how many nobles have fled to Jinhaidu?"

Sun Haomin smiled bitterly and said: "The nobles are all in the capital, and the status of Jinhaidu is very low. I'm afraid the humble position is the highest grade, only the fourth grade, and several other old nobles only have the third grade."

The fourth grade is indeed not high, and the first, second and third grades are basically no different from ordinary people. It is a good thing that there are no nobles in Jinhai. Guo Song smiled slightly and said: "The two princesses are on my ship, you go and pay homage!"

When several officials heard that the princess was on the ship, they were surprised and happy. They thought that the royal family had been slaughtered, but they did not expect that there were two princesses.

Guo Song immediately ordered his soldiers to take them on board the ship to meet the princess. Then he asked Li Bing, who was hesitant to speak next to him, "What's the matter?"

Li Bing hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the scouts have just received news that 20,000 enemy forwards are rapidly heading towards Jinhaidu, about eighty miles away from us!"

"Is it the cavalry?" Guo Song asked.

"No, they are all infantry!"

Guo Song glanced at Pei Xin who was gearing up next to him and said with a smile: "It seems that Pei Xin wants to take over this deal?"

Pei Xin bowed and said: "I promise to annihilate all the enemy troops and not let anyone escape!"

Guo Song said calmly: "Kill them all for me and won't accept surrender!"

"Follow the order!"

Pei Xin left in a hurry, and Li Bing said: "I am willing to send an army to meet General Pei."

"Okay! Let Yang Meng lead 10,000 troops to respond."

The northern part of Jinhaidu is dominated by hilly terrain, with independent mountains scattered across vast wilderness. There are many valleys between the hills, but there are also small patches of plains.

In a valley that is several miles long, an army of 20,000 people is marching rapidly southward, with the goal of Jinhaidu, which is dozens of miles away.

Zhu Ye was going all the way with unstoppable momentum, but unexpectedly something happened under his nose that he could not tolerate. A warrior actually rescued the Queen Mother in front of him.

Zhu Ye couldn't accept this shame and humiliation, and more importantly, he couldn't explain it to the Khitan.

Zhu Ye believed that it was the remnants of Silla who robbed Mrs. Guihua and took her to Jinhaidu. He vowed to massacre all the soldiers and civilians of Jinhaidu. At dawn the next day, he sent Heishui Liuwu and 20,000 Heishui troops as the vanguard to kill first.

To Jinhaidu.

He immediately led the remaining 60,000 troops and set off one day late. He would completely wipe out the remnants of Silla and occupy the entire Silla.

In the valley, 20,000 black water troops were running tirelessly. Their morale was as high as a rainbow, and they wished they could fly to Jinhai Capital immediately.

Zhu Ye gave them very generous conditions. As long as they captured Jinhaidu and recaptured Lady Osmanthus, any amount of property and women they could rob before the main army arrived would be their reward.

Therefore, by arriving in Jinhaidu one day earlier, they would have more time to rob property and women. This move completely aroused the enthusiasm of the Blackwater soldiers. Their morale was high and they did not rest all the way.

Coming out of the valley, there is a small plain outside, surrounded by mountains more than twenty miles away, and a small river a few miles away to the east.

Of course, such a plain is mainly dominated by farmland, with endless wheat fields scattered across it. It has just arrived in April, and the wheat has already eared and has not yet turned yellow. The wind is blowing the waves of wheat, carrying the heavy hopes of countless people.

The team walked for more than ten miles on the plain, and suddenly there was a noise in front of them. The soldiers stopped moving forward. Heishui Liuwu didn't know what happened and asked loudly: "What's going on?"

Someone in front shouted: "General, it seems that the enemy has been discovered in the front!"

"Enemy situation!"

Heishui Liuwu was stunned. What kind of enemy situation could there be? Aren't all the Silla troops killed?

He spurred his horse forward and ran to the front, only to see a dark army appearing several miles ahead.

Before he could see clearly, the ground shook, and the soldiers suddenly panicked.

"It's the cavalry!"

Heishui Liuwu suddenly saw clearly that the army on the opposite side turned out to be cavalry.

He was shocked, where did this cavalry come from?

But he could no longer think of the answer. Countless cavalry suddenly shot out from the wheat fields on both sides, killing Shangguan Dao in an instant and smashing the 20,000-man team into pieces.

The Blackwater Army has become accustomed to the weakness of the Silla Army. They all have a kind of arrogance in their hearts. It is this arrogance that harms them. They enter the state too slowly. When they feel the enemy's strength, ruthlessness and training,

When they had the opportunity, they began to pay attention to it, but it was too late.

The Jin cavalry did not give them any chance to counterattack. Their heads were chopped off with swords, and their chests were pierced with spears. Heads rolled on the official road, corpses were strewn on the ground, and blood flowed into rivers.

The 20,000 Blackwater troops could no longer hold on anymore and began to flee in all directions in the wheat fields. This was what the Jin cavalry wanted. Pei Xin issued a kill order, and 20,000 cavalrymen chased and killed the fleeing enemy troops in the wheat fields.

, not sparing anyone, and judging military achievements based on heads.

Heishui Liuwu was so frightened that he fled with more than 2,000 people, but another cavalry appeared in front, cutting off their retreat. The leader was Yang Xuanying.

Yang Xuanying rushed up on horseback, flicked the spear in her hand, and stabbed when distracted. Heishui Liuwu had no choice but to fight with his sword. The two fought for less than three rounds. When the two horses crossed each other, Yang Xuanying fired his carbine back, 'Pfft!'

A gun penetrated the back of Heishui Liuwu's neck, and the tip of the gun came out from his throat.

Yang Xuanying twisted her wrist, and the sharp gun blade immediately broke Heishui Liuwu's neck, and Heishui Liuwu's headless body fell to the ground.

Yang Xuanying waved her spear and shouted: "Kill them all!"

Five thousand cavalry surrounded two thousand enemy troops and killed them. No matter how the Mohe people knelt down and surrendered, no matter how hard they begged, they still could not escape the reincarnation of fate. When they were like jackals, they were eager to kill innocent people. Their fate

It was already destined that Jin King Guo Song would need to use their heads as sacrifices to annex Silla.
