Chapter 602: Pyongyang
In Pyongyang, Goryeo, it was 21 May.
Pyongyang has an unusually long history, and it is a true thousand-year-old capital.
Three thousand years ago, Tanjun, the leader of the ancient ethnic group living on the Korean Peninsula, established the state of Korea and set the capital of Pyongyang! At that time, the city of Pyongyang existed!
After the fall of the Shang Dynasty, the Yin Shang nobleman Jizi led the remnants of the Yin Shang clan to the Korean Peninsula to establish Jizi Korea and set the capital of Pyongyang! Until the modern society of later generations, the rice bowl was revered by the Korean people as the ancestor!
In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Wei Man, a native of Yan, led an army of 10,000 to the Korean Peninsula, where he eliminated Jizi Korea and established Wei Manchu Korea, which was also the capital of Pyongyang.
Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops to destroy the Manchurian Korea and annex the Korean Peninsula to China, where Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty established four counties, and Pyongyang was the seat of Lelang County.
From Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty until the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was part of China.
In the last years of the Western Jin Dynasty, Goguryeo rose, when the Central Plains could not afford to pay attention to the four counties of Korea, Goguryeo occupied the Korean Peninsula, Liaodong and other places, and also chose the capital in Pyongyang!
During the Tang Dynasty, Xue Rengui conquered Goguryeo, and Pyongyang became part of China again, when the Tang Dynasty set up the Andong Protectorate here! Pyongyang was the fortress of confrontation between the Tang Dynasty and Silla!
After the establishment of Wang's Goryeo, Pyongyang was ruined, and they set the capital to open Beijing, but the Goryeo people thought that "the ancient capital of Pyongyang, although it has been abandoned for a long time, the foundation site still exists, and the thorns are flourishing, and it is advisable to migrate the people to it, so Pyongyang has become the companion capital of the Goryeo people, and it is called Xijing by the Goryeo people.
After thousands of years of wind and rain, the city of Pyongyang is still strong.
On the afternoon of this day, as the sun was setting, an army of 30,000 men came to Pyongyang.
This army surrounded the city of Pyongyang as fast as possible, and countless siege weapons were transported to the city of Pyongyang.
The gates of Pyongyang were tightly closed, and the walls were full of Goryeo soldiers!
At the southern gate of Pyongyang, a young man dressed in the costume of a Goryeo vassal came to the city wall, looked down anxiously, and said, "What's going on?" Why did so many Song troops come here? ”
They didn't know that the army below was the Lion's Mouth Navy led by Wang Gui and Wu Gong! After the Battle of Kaegyo, this army landed dozens of miles west of Pyongyang by sea and finally came to the city of Pyongyang.
"Your Highness, the Song army came very suddenly! We got the news half an hour ago, someone said that the Song army appeared in the Nanpo area, and we didn't think so at the time, but who knew that it was only half an hour later, and the Song army came to Pyongyang! A general in his fifties came to the young man's side and said.
"How many Song soldiers are there below?" The young man said with a worried look on his face.
"I'm afraid there are only thirty or forty thousand people!" The general said.
"How the hell did they come about? Aren't we negotiating with them about the ownership of Liaodong? How did they end up in Pyongyang? The young man said.
"This last general is not clear." The general smiled bitterly.
"Can we hold on?" The young man said.
"Your Highness, rest assured, Pyongyang has 50,000 garrisons, and there is no problem in blocking the Song army!" The general said.
"That's good!" The young man breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, someone from the Song army below walked out, and it was Wang Gui.
******
"Let your lord of Pyongyang come out!" When he was still more than 300 steps away from Pyongyang City, Wang Gui stopped and shouted loudly.
The young man took a few steps forward, looked at Wang Gui below, and said, "Gu Nai is Wang Lin left behind in Goryeo Xijing, who are you?" ”
"Wang Lin?" A sneer appeared on Wang Gui's face.
Before the arrival of the Song army, the situation of the Goryeo people had been investigated clearly, this Wang Lin is Wang Kai's younger brother, only nineteen years old this year, and Zhao Chen's age is the same! Wang Kai is cowardly, this Wang Lin is slightly stronger than Wang Kai! Pyongyang is the most important military town in Goryeo, and most of the military rations are stored in Pyongyang when the Koreans attack Liaodong, and the weapons reserves here are also abundant. Because of his important status, Wang Kai let his younger brother guard here.
"Who are you?" Wang Lin asked again.
His voice was not very loud, but at the moment it was quiet inside and outside Pyongyang, and the voice reached Wang Gui's hands.
"I am Wang Gui, the general of the Great Song Dynasty, and I am ordered by my Great Song Majesty to destroy Goryeo!" Wang Guidao.
"What? On the orders of Your Majesty the Great Song Dynasty to destroy Goryeo? How is this possible? Aren't you going to give Liaodong to us? How is it possible to come and attack us? You're talking nonsense! Wang Lin's face changed slightly and said.
"Give Liaodong to you? This is just the wishful thinking of you Koreans! Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you, this is the holy decree of your Goryeo king Wang Kai, you send someone to take it! Wang Gui sneered.
"Brother Huang's holy decree?" Wang Lin was stunned again.
At that moment, I saw a Korean man who was lowered with a rope, and the Korean man came to Wang Gui, who handed him the holy decree, and this man returned to the city wall with the holy decree.
Wang Lin opened the holy decree, which was the holy decree of the king of Goryeo, Wang Kai, to persuade him to surrender. It said that he had surrendered, and asked Wang Lin to quickly surrender to the Great Song Dynasty.
"This ......" Wang Lin's face turned pale.
Several generals were beside Wang Lin, and they also watched this holy decree together, and everyone's faces changed in an instant.
"This decree must be false!" A general said suddenly.
"Impossible! How could His Majesty have surrendered to the Song people? ”
"Has Kaijing City been conquered?"
"The jade seal on this is real!"
"In addition to the holy decree, there is also a token of His Majesty, this jade pendant...... Your Highness, is this jade pendant Your Majesty's belongings? A general said.
"It seems to be!" Wang Lin's face turned pale and said.
"Could it be that Kaijing has really been breached? When did Song Jun go to Kaijing, and why didn't we get any news? ”
"Your Highness, what should I do?"
"My heart is in turmoil, let me be quiet!" Wang Lin said.
Wang Gui looked at the scene above with a mocking smile on his face.
"Your Highness, give you two hours of time! If you haven't opened the door and surrendered in two hours, we will attack the city! After a while, Wang Gui said loudly.
He is strong in martial arts, and he has already entered the innate world, and at this moment, his voice is far away.
The Pyongyang soldiers on the city wall are talking about it at the moment, and no one knows what is going on! And the news of the Divine Decree is gradually spreading at this time!
******
Time passed quietly, it was already dark, and two hours were coming!
In these two hours, the Song army has set up all the siege weapons, and there are Song troops under the city walls in the east, south, and west, but the main force of the Song army is still under the city walls in the south!
"General Wang, it's been an hour!" Wu Gong came to Wang Guisheng and said.
"Siege!" Wang Gui said lightly.
"Don't you wait for a reply from the Koreans?" Wu Gongdao.
"No need! Just hit it here! There are also a lot of recruits in our army, who are about to go through the war! Wang Guidao.
Under the South City Gate, more than 300 stone-throwing machines were erected, and with Wang Gui's order, all the stone-throwing machines were smashed in one direction!
Rumble!
The loud noise kept coming, and the Koreans above were in chaos!
The technology of the Great Song Dynasty was far ahead of Goryeo, and the technology of this stone thrower was also far above that of the Goryeo! The Koreans had not experienced war for many years, and they did not know how to deal with this stone thrower! There was originally a moat around the city of Pyongyang that could intercept the Song army, but unfortunately the moat did not play a role for more than a hundred years and had long since dried up.
All the stone throwers were slamming into one place, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the walls were showing signs of crumbling!
Goryeo soldiers came towards the city, trying to repair the walls, but before they could get closer, the boulders had already smashed them to pieces!
The night was dark, only the sound of the stone thrower was heard, and the scope of the collapse of the city wall was getting bigger and bigger!
The walls of Pyongyang are also in disrepair and their defenses are extremely poor!
Rumble!
There was another loud bang, and the walls of that section collapsed!
Countless Song troops rushed in that direction!
"Plug it here! Be sure to block this place! Can't let Song Jun come over! Wang Lin had been on the city wall, and hurriedly said at this moment.
Goryeo soldiers are coming here one after another, and they are trying to block the Song army!
However, as soon as the two sides came into contact, the Goryeo soldiers knew how much stronger the Song army they were facing was than them! The same warriors, with the same weapons, the opponent's strength and speed are far superior to theirs! The opponent's ability to cooperate is also far superior to theirs!
Hundreds of people in Goryeo blocked here, and after only a few moments, these hundreds of people were rushed away!
The Song army rushed into the city of Pyongyang like a tiger wolf!
With a little breakthrough, the entire city of Pyongyang will no longer have the ability to resist!
30,000 Song troops roared in, and except for a few Goryeo soldiers who resisted, the rest of them all fled! Their will to fight is far inferior to that of the Song army!
"Your Highness, flee quickly!" The veteran in his fifties came to Wang Lin's side and said in horror.
"How come we lost so quickly?" Wang Lin said in disbelief.
"General, the Song army is too strong! It is not a little bit stronger than us, but ten times stronger! Their siege weapons are unusually sharp, which is why we were defeated so easily! Leave quickly, if you don't leave, you won't have a chance! We're going to leave with all our soldiers and go to the Great Wall!" The veteran said.
"Is Kaijing really finished?" Wang Lin muttered.
"If all the Song armies were so strong, Kaijing might really be finished!" The veteran said.
"How so? Didn't they promise to give Liaodong to us? We will soon become the great power of the East, why are they suddenly attacking us? Wang Lin said in despair.
"Your Highness, now is not the time to think about this!" The veteran said anxiously.
The veteran dragged Wang Lin and fled towards the north, with countless routs behind them.
There was no Song army in the north, and they opened the city wall and fled into the distance!
Wang Gui had already entered the city of Pyongyang at this moment, with a trace of disdain on his face, and said: "The Goryeo army is really too bad, it is almost a copy of the Zhao Gou army in Jiangnan back then!" It's too easy to destroy here! ”
Wu Gong's face was full of disbelief, he didn't expect the Goryeo soldiers in Pyongyang City to be so weak, and he smiled bitterly at the moment: "The soldiers here don't seem to be as good as the Goryeo soldiers in Haizhou!" ”
Wang Gui said: "They eat and drink spicy food in Pyongyang, and they are greedy for wealth and nobility, so they are naturally inferior to the Goryeo soldiers in Haizhou!" ”
Wu Gong said: "That Goryeo vassal king Wang Lin has fled, should we pursue it immediately?" ”
Wang Gui said: "This is not necessary! I just got the news that your second uncle has arrived, let's go and receive Pyongyang's grain, grass and armaments now! ”
