Chapter 763: Expedition to Goryeo (2)

Feng Mo rode a horse, and when he saw the situation on the battlefield behind the formation, he was already leaning towards his side. He ordered his cavalry to charge each other from both sides, in order to cooperate with the infantry to put pressure on the Goryeo army.

After Lin Jianlong re-battled, he saw that his cavalry had suffered heavy losses, so he hurriedly sounded the trumpet and ordered the cavalry to retreat.

As a result, Lou Zi came out this time, and the cavalry naturally scrambled when they heard the order, messed up the formation, and fled backwards together.

Behind them, the musketeers of the Central Plains lined up in formation and slowly pressed towards the Goryeo military formation.

Lin Jianlong regrets it now, he knew that he would refuse to defend Pyongyang City, where would he go out of the camp to fight with the other party.

Just when Lin Jianlong was regretting it, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and when he looked up, it turned out to be on his left and right, and the cavalry of the Central Plains had already covered up.

Lin Jianlong is also a hero, otherwise he would not have been able to become the king of Goryeo with his cloth clothes.

Seeing this scene, Lin Jianlong immediately ordered two infantry to go forward to block the cavalry, not to defeat it, but to be able to block the other party for a moment and a half, so that his formation could be rearranged.

Who knew that what he thought was good, but the result was greatly unexpected by him.

Those Central Plains cavalry who came from both sides were equipped with six-eyed muskets in addition to horse heads.

These six-eyed muskets were capable of firing six times in a row, and although it was very difficult to reload the eggs after firing, for the cavalry, six shots in a short period of time awaited their enemies with a rain of bullets.

Therefore, the soldiers who blocked the cavalry on both sides were defeated by the cavalry of the Central Plains in just one round.

Then Feng Mo's cavalry entered on both sides, and in the military formation of the Goryeo Kingdom, they immediately messed up their formation.

Feng Mo saw that the opponent's camp was already in chaos, and knew that the opportunity could not be lost, so he immediately blew the horn and ordered the whole army to press it together, to give the opponent a thunderous blow.

On the side of Goryeo, which had already been disturbed by the cavalry, this time it was constantly fired by the musketeers, and they were faced with countless bullets.

These cold-armed troops were not accustomed to the attack of hot weapons, and they only lasted less than a quarter of an hour, and hundreds of thousands of horses and horses of the Goryeo Kingdom collapsed.

Although Lin Jianlong ordered his own soldiers to step forward and keep slashing and killing these fleeing soldiers, this time the rout was too fast, and there were too many people who fled, and his personal soldiers quickly couldn't hold it down.

Seeing this situation, Lin Jianlong sighed a little, knowing that the general trend had gone, so he did not delay any longer, so he took his own soldiers and fled straight to Pyongyang on fast horses.

After Feng Mo fought again, he saw that the other party was already in chaos, in order to be able to destroy the opponent's living force on the largest scale, Feng Bai ordered the cavalry to quickly intersperse behind the opponent to prevent the opponent's army from escaping.

These Goryeo soldiers had already been frightened by the musketeers, but now that the back road was blocked, they immediately lost their fighting spirit. So Gao Libin fell to his knees and surrendered.

Feng Mo saw that countless Goryeo soldiers had surrendered one after another, and immediately ordered the cavalry under his command to gather all these surrendered Goryeo soldiers together.

Next, Feng Mo took the men and horses to rest on the spot and clean up the battlefield.

After a night of statistics, the results of a big war were finally tried

Feng Mo took the report in front of him, and the smile on his face didn't stop.

It turned out that this time the two sides were in a big war, because the Goryeo Kingdom did not expect the Central Plains, and now all of them have been firearmed, so they were caught off guard and suffered a big loss.

Most of the 300,000 horses were lost, 50,000 or 60,000 were killed in battle, and 156,000 were taken prisoner. Those who fled are estimated to be tens of thousands, and those who can follow the puppet king of Goryeo to return to Pyongyang are at most 30,000 or 40,000.

Feng Mo already had his own arrangements for these captives.

The next day, Feng Mo ordered all the captured officers to be executed, and then he assigned the meritorious soldiers under his command to serve as centurions among these captives.

After a week of reorganization, the captives were able to follow the GIs for the time being, and were able to do some logistical support for the army.

As for why these captive soldiers are so honest, it turns out that for thousands of years, the Goryeo Kingdom has been a vassal state of the Central Plains, and they feel awe of the Central Plains Dynasty from the bottom of their hearts.

And the use of captive soldiers is also a common measure used by these generals under Jia Ke's command, just like when Jia Ke subdued the Manchu Eight Banners and went south to conquer Annan, he subdued those captive soldiers, Feng Mo also did the same this time, and put these hundreds of thousands of captive soldiers into order, and prepared them for attacking the city.

Besides, Lin Jianlong retreated to Pyongyang with the remnants of the defeated army, and then reorganized the people, only 10,000 or 20,000 people returned with him, and the rest of the people were already missing.

Lin Jianlong was really scared now, he didn't expect that the Central Plains soldiers would be so powerful, and this battle would cause all the elites of his entire Goryeo to be lost.

Lin Jianlong is now in a dilemma, if you want to say that it is fighting, looking at the way it was a few days ago, it was undoubtedly a moth to the fire and self-destruction.

But if you want to say surrender, I'm afraid that the people of the Central Plains will not accept it, even if you reluctantly accept it, I'm afraid you won't be able to save your life.

After thinking about it, Lin Jianlong felt that there was no other way but to fight to the death, using the 3,000 miles of Goryeo to constantly consume the troops of the Central Plains. Only in this way can the Central Plains people see that the losses are heavy and the gains outweigh the losses, and when the time comes, they will be able to retreat from the two flattering pieces, and the Central Plains Emperor will see that the gains outweigh the losses, and he will go down the slope and get off the donkey.

So Lin Jianlong immediately issued an order and ordered the remaining guards in Seoul to immediately gather troops from the south and go to Pyongyang for reinforcements.

How do you know that Lin Jianlong's will has been going down for half a month, and it is silent in Seoul.

At the beginning, Lin Jianlong thought that those ministers were actively raising troops and horses for themselves, and he didn't have time to reply to the letter, but as time went by, he felt that something was wrong.

After such a long time, even if he was busy, he was able to reply to himself, so Lin Jianlong sent a scout horse to investigate near Pyongyang.

As a result, the news of Tanma's return was like a basin of cold water poured on him.

It turned out that south of the Han River, all the towns had been heavily defended and cut off from the north.

Lin Jianlong didn't know that the wall grass under his hand had rebelled again.

It turned out that after Lin Jianlong left Seoul, the ministers under him were connected with each other, and finally these people sent leaders to discuss it together, feeling that Lin Jianlong could not resist the army of the Central Plains Celestial Dynasty no matter what.

These people were originally grass on the wall, that is, because Lin Jianlong was powerful in Goryeo, so he surrendered to him.

Now that the Central Plains soldiers have come to conquest, these people have begun to give full play to their advantages in judging the situation again, and feel that it is better to defect to the Zhongyuan Heavenly Dynasty and save the lives of their families to be prosperous and wealthy, otherwise it will be too late for them to surrender when the Central Plains soldiers defeat Lin Jianlong.

So these ministers mobilized their forces and secretly controlled the defense south of the Han River.

A few days later, the news of Lin Jianlong's defeat reached Seoul, and these ministers became even more unscrupulous, directly blocking all the communication arteries and bridges south of the Han River, cutting off the north and the south.

At the same time, these people sent messengers to Sinuiju by boat to deliver a message to the defenders of the Central Plains Celestial Empire and send a surrender table.

Feng Mo was originally heading towards Pyongyang, but when he received news from Sinuiju halfway through, he learned that those nobles in the south of Goryeo had rebelled against Lin Jianlong and surrendered to the Celestial Empire.

This is really a pie-in-the-sky thing, this time as long as Lin Jianlong is eliminated in Pyongyang, the war in Goryeo will be able to subside, and then according to the emperor's will, the descendants of the previous king of Goryeo will be killed, and the class will be able to return to the dynasty.

Feng Mo then ordered the army to speed up their movements, and within three days they had reached Pyongyang City.

After Feng Mo's army arrived, it immediately drained the water surrounding Pyongyang.

And Lin Jianlong was at the head of the city, and when he saw hundreds of thousands of soldiers outside the city, he was already completely cold.

And the generals under Lin Jianlong also had thoughts that they shouldn't have.

But Lin Jianlong has also been in political struggle for so many years, and it is the most dangerous until now, so he holds the army tightly in his own hands, and all the generals have been relieved of their military powers.

Although Lin Jianlong knows that this is also a lingering breath, but people are like this, if they can live one day at a time, who wants to die?

On the third day of besieging Pyongyang City, Feng Mo set up a position and prepared to attack the city.

After Lin Jianlong received the news that the other party had lined up, he did not dare to slack off, and immediately ordered all his troops to go to the city to fight to the death.

But his ideas are good, but the reality is very cruel.

Where would Feng Mo let the soldiers climb the city and carry out a bloody siege?

Feng Mo first concentrated all the artillery at the north gate, and then ordered the captives to prepare behind the battle.

With Feng Mo's order, more than 100 artillery pieces of various types bombarded Pyongyang City together.

This ancient city was not built to protect against artillery, so it was very resistant to artillery.

Feng Mo's artillery bombarded for nearly two hours at a time, and the city of Pyongyang had already been bombarded, and many places had collapsed.

Feng Mo saw this situation and knew that it was okay, so he immediately ordered the captive soldiers to start charging, and at the same time, for fear that the captives would defect, he also ordered his musketeers to press the formation behind, as long as these captive soldiers would shoot as soon as they judged.

Fortunately, these captives seemed to have recognized the situation and did not have any intention of judging the chaos, they took all kinds of knives and guns, and climbed along several collapsed walls.

At present, there are only 30,000 or 40,000 horses in the city of Pyongyang, and it is immediately impossible to parry the hundreds of thousands of captives who are swarming in.

Although Lin Jianlong desperately commanded the battle, after all, the enemy was outnumbered, and his morale was not high, he saw this situation and knew that the general situation had gone, so he took his own soldiers back to the palace in Pyongyang.
