Chapter 576: Siege (4)
The coalition army quickly moved towards the west gate, and at the same time as the city wall was blown open, the morale of the defenders was lost, the morale of the people was broken, and the city fell into chaos, and countless people fled for their lives out of the city.
When the people of the Central Plains recovered from the initial shock, fear, confusion, and confusion were like a lingering haze that enveloped the hearts of the people, followed by anger, hatred, and the killing of desire.
The west gate was emptied, the coalition army successfully entered the west of the city, and the refugees rushed to the north and south, screams and moans were heard one after another, like a purgatory on earth, and the breath of death was suffocating.
The coalition forces quickly defeated the defenders and occupied the city, established defenses, quickly captured the east gate, and released all the armed new civil men from the ships into the city, and slaughtered them all the way from the city to the north and south.
The bloodiness of the slaughter and the cruelty of the methods are beyond measure. Everywhere he passed, the corpses were all over the wilderness, the dead were in mourning, the screams and cries were drowned in the shouting and killing and turned into corpses, all the ghosts and gods were so fragile and small in the face of death, life became meaningless at this moment.
Until dawn, the massacre continued, and the Central Plains people outside the city were either killed, or continued to be bewitched by the Central Plains thieves, doing intolerable rebellious things.
"See, it's because of you that the barbarians broke through our army's defense line and caused tens of thousands of casualties to our army and yourself. You, you and you, yesterday swore that the thieves kept their promises, but now, instead of freeing your wives and daughters, they are in the city lascivious with their flesh and eat their flesh, and you lowly cowards will pay the price for it. Come! ”
"The subordinates are here!"
"Pull these people to the square, hang them with ropes, and write on a white cloth, the lackeys of the barbarians, the thieves of the Central Plains!"
"Yes, my lord!"
stepped forward left and right, and was about to drag Bai Liyan away by name, when he struggled and shouted:
"You demons, you are the one who brought the disaster, and the moon god will punish you, I swear!"
Bai Liyan was furious, drew his horizontal knife, and shouted:
"Okay, today you let the moon god come out to punish me, if I don't die, it will be providential, you wait for everyone to watch, this general is not dead today, it is this person who bewitches the people, and there will be no god in this world. Now, Ben is going to see if the moon god will let you die, or if I will die! ”
The words fell, and a knife stabbed into the man's chest, the man's chest straightened, his face turned pale, and he slowly fell down in pain, and the red blood gushed out along his chest, flowing on the ground and quickly coagulated. Pulling back the horizontal knife, Baili Yan's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he said ruthlessly:
"If God remains, how can he die! What you see today is a cocoon for you, if the city is broken yesterday, how can you have the difficulties of today. Come on, drag those people down and hang them for me!" ”
"Yes!"
Everyone was silent, looking at the faces of the few people who retreated and dragged down, no one dared to stop them, even at this moment, Bai Liyan believed that among these people in front of him, there were still Central Plains thieves lurking among them, preparing the driver to make waves.
After the Jin Xuedi people took the women, children, and children of the Central Plains into the city, they were all imprisoned in the junction of the city and the north of the city, with about 80,000 people, and countless people were raped and violent. After the coalition army besieged the city and ran out of food, they were the first to run out of food, and more than half of them starved to death and were killed and cooked.
The massacre lasted for a day, and after the news of Jin Xuedi's rape and cannibalism spread, the people of the Central Plains participated in the massacre, and the situation became uncontrollable, regardless of the old and the young. The coalition quickly turned from slaughtering the city to plundering, and the wealth was far greater than that of the small border city of Pagens.
By the evening of the same day, Bailiyan issued a knife sealing order to ban slaughter, and opened the four doors to let people flee for their lives.
"My lord, it's time to eat." Jiang Jie was boiling clear soup in a hot pot, and sliced beef and mutton were stuffed into a pot.
"Put it on the table."
"Yes."
Turning around and leaving the stone window, his eyes fell on the hot pot, and the smell of spices emitted by the heat came to his nose, but Bailiyan had no appetite.
"Have you sealed the knife?"
"My lord, our army has sealed the sword, but some Central Plains citizens are still chasing and killing."
"Leave them alone. What are the casualties of our army? ”
"More than 200 people were killed in battle, more than 1,400 were slightly injured, and there were many newly attached people."
"Well, gather our soldiers and horses to the city for repair as soon as possible, send cavalry scouts, follow the refugees along the river to the north, and find that the downstream enemy ships have landed to collect the refugees, or the refugees are on the boat, and report immediately."
"Your Excellency wants to eat Jin Xuedi's water army?"
"Time is running out, the reinforcements of the Jinxuedi people are approaching from the south, and they cannot be allowed to form a north-south attack, and we must first solve the retreat of our army. At present, there are more than 200,000 people inside and outside the city, and the warships of the Jin Xuedi Navy are very important. ”
"But even if all of its ships are taken, our army will not be able to carry more than 200,000 people."
"Dress up the old, the weak, the sick and the sick and the women, and leave the young and strong in the city, so that the men can be coerced for my use."
"Do you want to stab Jin Xuedi in Sondia?"
"It looks like you're getting better and better." Bai Liyan said with relief, and motioned to Jiang Jie to dine together: "When I went west, I didn't plan to open another front in its rear, but I didn't expect that they would take all the women and children of the middle court into the city as hostages, so it gave me an opportunity for our army to take advantage of." ”
"Your Excellency is saying that the human heart is usable?"
"Well, it has been proved that the Jinxuedi people will commit adultery and ravage when they take women and children captive into the city, and once this matter spreads, it will be indignant by people and gods."
"But the enemy's reinforcements are coming, and the people of the Plains here are like a rabble, how can they fight."
"Otherwise, when our army besieged the city, the strength was only more than 30,000 people, even if we added 20,000 men among the 40,000 new subjects, it was only 50,000, and the Jin Xuedi people would definitely not have thought that it would be more than 100,000 people attacking the city now, so their reinforcements from Posong Province have absolutely no strong troops.
When they came to reinforce them, they must have had the momentum of being outnumbered by the crowd, so they categorically did not expect that our army would be able to grow several times in one night. Therefore, the enemy who comes to reinforce is not good at fighting, so Kelownas can hold on.
When the enemy reaches the city, our army only needs to contain its cavalry, and then pour out the nest, and can defeat it in a battle. ”
"But the combat strength of the Central Plains people is weak, more than half of the old people are less, and the enemy will not increase his troops, even if there are only seventy or eighty thousand people, my army may be difficult to parry."
"Then you know that the mourning soldiers will win."
"The mourning soldiers will win?"
"Yes, under the despair of losing relatives, people have the heart of death, all of them are fighting to the death to kill the enemy to shame the snow, this is the way to win the mourning soldiers. Moreover, the people of the Central Plains have no way to retreat, and they are also fighting against the water, how can they not fight to the death to protect themselves. In this way, the battle can be decided, and our army's return to the Central Plains will be just around the corner. ”
"The subordinates understood, before the adults attacked the city, they expected the current situation, so they repeatedly retreated step by step, just to form today's situation?"
"Not bad. Only let the people of the Central Plains know that it was their fault that killed their wives and daughters, and it was the ghosts and gods in their mouths that led to today's tragedy. ”
The current Central Plains people are a herd of infuriated docile African bison, no matter how fierce the lion face, the crazy revenge on the angry bison herd will be as vulnerable as an embarrassed clown.
