Chapter 296: Besieging Kaijing
The cavalry led by Liang Hong "yu" was like a sharp sword and fiercely "chΔ" towards the Goryeo army, and in a moment, the Goryeo army was completely defeated.
Cui Mingyuan was also stunned at this moment, the strength of the Liangshan army was beyond his expectations, if there was only Han Shizhong's team there, he might be able to stop it. But now that Liang Hong's 'yu' appeared so suddenly, he couldn't resist it anymore.
"Retreat, retreat!" Cui Mingyuan hurriedly said.
At this time, a rain of arrows came over, and a large group of soldiers beside Cui Mingyuan fell, Cui Mingyuan was not hit by an arrow, but he was already frightened.
Cui Mingyuan himself fled with dozens of people, and the rest of the Goryeo soldiers also fled in all directions. Cui Mingyuan has already decided to gather troops when he escapes to a safe place. Although Liangshan's cavalry is powerful, there are not many of them, and there may be a chance to win.
"Follow me and chase after me!" Liang Hong 'Yu' saw the Goryeo army fleeing, and did not immediately join Han Shizhong, but led the cavalry to chase and kill the fleeing Goryeo army.
The husband and wife cooperated very tacitly, Liang Hong 'yu' went to pursue the rout, while Han Shizhong ordered his subordinates to rest on the spot.
The warriors sat down to eat the bread, and there was almost no noise, while the horses ate the grass on the side.
It was already dark, and after about an hour, Han Shizhong said, "Let's go." β
The battalion commander next to him said in surprise, "General, do you want to set off now?" β
Han Shizhong said, "This is natural, although the enemy army is defeated, there are still a lot of them. We must destroy all the routs, and we must not allow a single rout to return to the capital of Kaijing. β
At that moment, Han Shizhong led the soldiers and horses in the direction of Kaijing City, and continued to rest when he came to the area of the current Ban "MΓ©n" store, waiting for the arrival of the rout. When he heard the footsteps of the rout, Han Shizhong rushed over with his soldiers and horses, and he rushed to kill for a while.
The remnants of the Goryeo army were exhausted under the pursuit of Liang Hong'yu, and when they encountered Han Shizhong's troops again at this moment, they immediately suffered a large number of casualties.
In the next three days, Han Shizhong and Liang Hong "yu" took turns to rest, using the speed advantage of the cavalry to constantly chase and kill the remnants of the Goryeo army, so as not to give the remnants of the Goryeo army a chance to rest. The two of them are like shepherds chasing sheep, but the sheep will not die, but the remnants of the Goryeo army they are chasing and killing continue to die, and the number of remnants of the Goryeo army is getting smaller and smaller.
In three days, the 20,000 Goryeo army was almost strangled by 2,000 cavalry, and few of them were able to escape to the city of Kaeong.
Han Shizhong had a new feeling about the use of cavalry, and felt that the current cavalry seemed to be more convenient to use. In fact, every good general is constantly improving in battle, and if there is no battle, even if you read more military books, it is difficult to make a qualitative leap.
When there were still 10 miles away from Kaijing, Han Shizhong and Liang Hong "yu" finally converged.
"Husband, Goryeo's 20,000-strong army is no longer a threat, what should we do next?" Liang Hong "yu" came to Han Shizhong's side and said excitedly.
Liang Hong "Yu" This is the first time to lead the troops, and being able to achieve such a record makes her extremely happy.
Han Shizhong glanced at Liang Hong with some doting, and said, "Next, let's attack the capital!" β
"Ahh Liang Hong was taken aback and said, "Husband, we only have 2,000 soldiers and horses now. β
"2,000 soldiers and horses, which is already a lot! Didn't Wanyan Aguda use 2,000 soldiers and horses to raise troops back then? Our 2,000 soldiers and horses are enough to do a lot of things. Han Shizhong said confidently.
"Our military rations are limited, and in the past three days of pursuit, our military rations are about to run out." Liang Hong said.
"There are so many Goryeo villages around, can't we grab them?" Han Shizhong said with a sneer.
"Uh......" Liang Hong "yu" looked at Han Shizhong in disbelief, as far as she knew, although Han Shizhong was a powerful soldier, he also reached out to the influence of Confucianism, and he also paid attention to "benevolence and righteousness" when using soldiers, and would never do such a thing.
Seeing Liang Hong's surprised eyes, Han Shizhong said, "Hong'yu", you can't pay attention to means when you are in war...... Look at those golden people, they all feed the war with war, and the more they fight, the stronger they become, instead of waiting for the military rations to come, don't you say? β
It turned out that since Wu Dong told Han Shizhong about the fight of Yan and Agu that day, Han Shizhong studied the "NV" real person every day, and at the same time continued to learn the fighting methods of the "NV" real person, so he even gave up many "principles" in his heart.
Liang Hong "yu" couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay! We will attack the capital, but we still need to inform the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion that we will know the progress of our march. β
2,000 soldiers actually began to attack the capital, and for a time bows and arrows rained down, heading towards the city of Kaijing, and at the same time, countless soldiers made rafts, ready to cross the moat of Kaijing and climb the wall of Kaijing.
******
In Kaijing City, it was already ten o'clock at dusk, and all the Koreans were terrified when they heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing outside.
In the palace, the king of Goryeo, Wang Mata, was trembling at the moment, and he wanted to flee from this place immediately.
"What should I do now, my lord?" Taishi Li Haoran broke into the palace, found Wang Mata, and said with an anxious face.
"Go and call Cui Mingyuan to me! I ask him, how did he lose 20,000 troops? Wang Mata said a little hysterically.
Cui Mingyuan returned to Kaijing at noon, and when he came to the palace, Wang Yu found that he was covered with scars. Cui Mingyuan's face was full of tears, and he cried, "King, I'm sorry for you!" β
"You've done a good job! All the soldiers and horses left behind in Kaijing City were given to you 'jiΔo', and you didn't bring anyone back! You're damned! Wang Yu kicked Cui Mingyuan "fiercely" and scolded angrily. However, his physical fitness as the king of Goryeo is too poor, and Cui Mingyuan didn't even feel any pain in his kick.
"King, the plan for now is to defend the city as soon as possible." Cui Ming said from afar.
"Say, how should we defend the city?" Wang Yu gasped and said.
"We still have 2,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and we can recruit people and let them go to the city wall to defend." Cui Mingyuan said hurriedly.
"Yes, according to you! Defend the city, you and your younger brother Cui Mingshan do it, you must defend it! Otherwise, it will definitely kill you. "Wang Yu has a weak voice.
The entire Kaijing City is full of crying voices, the Kaijing City has not experienced war for 200 years, and the people here have an instinctive horror for war.
"What should I do? My child, who followed General Choi outside, has not yet returned. "This is the family of those 20,000 Goryeo soldiers.
"Are we going to be killed by the Han Chinese?"
"What should I do?"
β¦β¦
There were such cries everywhere, and at this moment, a pair of centaurs rushed out in front of them, and they coldly shouted "You, and you, all the people, go up to the city wall!" Follow Lao Tzu to defend the city! β
"Ahh The people on the street were astonished and terrified, and they did not want to go to the wall, but there was no way, the soldiers had already stabbed them to the wall, and they had to help defend the city.
As soon as they arrived at the city wall, they were given weapons, and in just half an hour, the number of Koreans participating in the defense of the city had reached tens of thousands.
"You must defend Kaijing!" Cui Mingyuan looked at the constantly attacking Liangshan army and gritted his teeth and said.
Han Shizhong's offensive was amazing, but unfortunately it was impossible to break through the capital. The walls of Kaeongseong City are very strong, and in addition, one side of Kaeongseong City is the Han River, and the other three sides of the moat are also formed by the water of the Han River, and the moat is too wide, and it is extremely difficult to climb the city by relying on a simple raft.
At this time, if there is the help of the navy, it is not impossible to take down the capital of Kaijing, but most of the navy is now in the area of the Yalu River, and it is impossible to help Han Shizhong to prevent the main force of Goryeo from going south. In fact, in the original battle plan, it was not expected that Han Shizhong would be able to directly hit the city of Kaijing in Goryeo, which could be regarded as an "emergency".
"King, please wait for the city wall to supervise the battle." In the palace, Li Haoran grabbed Wang Yu's arm and said.
Although Han Shizhong was unable to capture Kaijing, the soldiers and civilians of Kaijing did not think so, and now Kaijing City was already a "hun" and "luΓ n", so Li Haoran wanted to invite Wang Yu out and let Wang Yu calm his morale.
"This, this, this...... How can it be? Wang Yu said tremblingly. He didn't dare to go out, afraid of dying outside.
"Oh, it must be so!" At this time, Zhang Yan, the minister of the Privy Council, also rushed in, knelt on the ground, and said bitterly.
At that moment, with the support of Li Haoran and Wang Mata, Wang Mata left the palace and headed towards the city wall.
Along the way, walking on the street, many people looked at Wang Yu coldly, and Wang Yu felt more and more terrifying in his heart.
"Your Majesty, go and talk to them." Zhang Yandao.
"Okay." Wang Yu said.
Wang Yu walked up to the people, looked at the people with cold eyes, and then heard the shouts of killing outside, somehow, he couldn't say anything, and after a while, he collapsed to the ground, and the 'niΓ o' flowed together.
He originally wanted to boost morale, but instead of boosting morale, it made the people in the city even more desperate.
When Li Haoran, Zhang Yan and others saw Wang Yu like this, they couldn't help but sigh and hurriedly helped Wang Yu away.
******
Han Shizhong's troops were extremely demoralized, knowing that it would be impossible to capture the capital, but they still charged forward without fear of death. Several times, they had to rush to the city wall with the help of makeshift rafts and ladders, and they were barely knocked down.
"This Liangshan's army is simply another 'NV' real person! How do we deal with such a strong force? Cui Mingyuan stood on the city wall, and his heart became more and more terrifying.
Although the opponent was only 2,000 people, he felt that the whole of Goryeo might not be able to stop these 2,000 people. If it weren't for the tall city walls and wide moat, Kaijing City would have been breached long ago.
At midnight, the attack on Liangshan finally came to an end, but the horn of Liangshan's siege was still sounding outside.
Hearing this horn, the people in Kaijing City couldn't sleep at all, and their hearts were extremely frightened, while the Liangshan soldiers were eating, and then began to rest.
"Husband, Kaijing City is the capital of Goryeo, and it can't be defeated by relying on our 2,000 people." In the barracks, Liang Hong said to Han Shizhong.
"It's impossible to knock them down, but there's nothing wrong with scaring them. I have sent the news back to Incheon City, and I believe that the Metropolitan Governor has made a decision. Han Shizhong said.
His information was transmitted through carrier pigeons, which were extremely fast, and Wu Dong had already fallen asleep, but was woken up by someone, and then began to read Han Shizhong's information.
Wu Dong looked at this information, and was pleasantly surprised, and at the same time began to think about how to use this opportunity to get the benefits he wanted.
After thinking about it, Wu Dong said, "Call Wu Yong." β
