Chapter 734: Revenge for Brother Zhongatom
Chapter 734: Revenge for Brother Zhongatom
Wang Ping'an was extremely shocked, he looked at the Human Head Tower, and couldn't speak. He had heard more or less about the war between Goguryeo and the Former Sui before, and he had also heard about the human head pagoda!
But at that time, he was angry at the stupidity of Emperor Yang of Sui, who could have destroyed Goguryeo, but not only did he not destroy it, but also lost countless generals, and finally the Sui Dynasty perished.
During the former Sui period, the Sui army fought against the Goguryeo army, and whenever the Goguryeo army could no longer support it, they would surrender.
The Sui army was ordered by Emperor Yang of Sui that as soon as the enemy surrendered, even if they attacked the city, they could only give up the victory and withdraw the army. So much so that the Goguryeo army got a respite, and as soon as the Sui army retreated, they then recaptured the city wall and fought with the Sui army again!
In the end, due to many things, such as grain, grass and medicine, the Sui army could not delay the time, so it had to retreat!
However, Emperor Yang of Sui was stupid, he was merciful to his enemies, but he became cruel to his own army. When the Sui army retreated, the Goguryeo army followed closely and counterattacked, causing countless Chinese brothers to die in Liaodong!
Emperor Yang of Sui told the enemy about mercy, but the enemy refused to talk to him about mercy, but caused Emperor Yang of Sui to lose the country, and the Sui soldiers lost their lives, and the country was also in chaos!
The small court of Goguryeo has never had such a "war feat", and they actually defeated the army of the Celestial Empire, and they were extremely excited, so they trampled the corpses of the Sui soldiers, cut off the heads of the corpses, and sent them to the national capital Yaowu, and used the heads to repair the pagoda, called the pagoda, to commemorate their "victory"!
Because of Goguryeo's behavior, it not only led to the hatred of the Tang Dynasty against them, but also led to a series of tough policies carried out by the Tang army after the defeat of Goguryeo in the future.
Now, the hill where Wang Ping'an and the Qingzhou soldiers are located is one of the human head pagodas repaired by the Goguryeo army, and it is the largest one. Decades have passed, and the skull has turned into a skeleton, which makes the whole stone tower look extremely terrifying and shocking!
Xue Renyi jumped like thunder, he grabbed a sledgehammer, roared up the hill, picked up the sledgehammer and began to smash the stone tower! Seeing this, the Qingzhou soldiers below also shouted, rushed up the hill with their weapons, and smashed them against the stone tower!
Hundreds of people worked together, and within a few moments, the stone tower collapsed!
The Qingzhou soldiers, who couldn't squeeze into the mountain, shouted loudly, their eyes were red, and they were full of hatred for the atrocities of the Goguryeo soldiers back then!
Su Dingfang saw Wang Ping'an's mouth open wide, looking at the smoking hill, he hurriedly approached and whispered: "Prince, morale is available, why don't we hurry up again, we traveled more than 100 miles last night, and I heard the interpreter say that Xiao Chang'an should be nearby, and it may not be far from here!" ”
Wang Ping'an came back to his senses, he was also angry in his heart, he had only seen it in books before, and he had heard others talk about it, and his feelings were not very profound, but now he has witnessed what is called the Human Head Tower, and the anger in his heart is no less than that of Qingzhou soldiers!
Without waiting for him to answer, he heard Xue Renyi shouting from the hill: "Look, look over there, there's a big city there!" Is that Xiao Chang'an? ”
The Qingzhou soldiers on the mountain were attracted by the Rentou Tower just now, and now that the Rentou Tower had fallen, they heard Xue Renyi's shout again, and they turned their heads one after another. In the distance, about three or four miles away, there is a big city, which is as big as several miles of Chang'an City, and the city wall is high and the river is wide, and it is very imposing!
Wang Ping'an was stunned for a moment at the bottom of the mountain, and said: "The head tower here is used to praise martial arts, so Xiao Chang'an may really be nearby!" As he spoke, he trotted up the hill.
Su Dingfang also followed behind.
Wang Ping'an stood on the hill and looked in the direction of Xue Renyi's finger, and saw that there was really a big city in the distance, and there were countless people outside the city, dragging their families and mouths, driving cattle, sheep and livestock, carrying large bags and small bags, running towards the city, and the city gate had not yet been closed!
Su Dingfang was overjoyed and shouted: "It must be Xiao Chang'an!" Look, Prince, if we run over at this time, we might be able to attack the city directly, and the gates of the city are in chaos! ”
Although the distance is not close, the general scene can still be seen clearly. I saw that thousands of Goguryeo people were desperately running into the city, and there was a group of Goguryeo cavalry running outside, as if they were going out of the city to line up. Before entering and exiting, although the city gate was wide, it was also overwhelmed, and the soldiers and civilians crowded the city gate, and the soldiers beat the people with horsewhips and swords, while many of the people pulled down the soldiers, and the chaos became a mess!
In this situation, there is a bit of a civil war!
Wang Ping'an said: "It seems that the news is one step ahead of us and has been sent to Xiaochang'an, and the small court inside already knows that we are coming and wants to send an army to stop it!" ”
Su Dingfang said excitedly: "Prince, when my Central Plains army fought against Goguryeo, it didn't matter if it was in the field, it was difficult to attack the city. The Goguryeo people often blocked the city gate with stones and soil bags, and placed a fence on the city wall, dividing the city wall into countless small pieces, and resisting it in blocks, increasing the difficulty of our Central Plains army to attack the city. But now they haven't made any preparations, the city gate is not blocked, if we fight through it in one go, they are afraid that they will not even be able to close the city gate! ”
Wang Ping'an's face turned red, and he was also very excited, and said: "We came too fast, the Goguryeo people would never have imagined that we would forcibly march as soon as we got off the ship, and we would arrive under their capital in one night!" ”
He brushed the ground and drew out his portable sword, and shouted at the Qingzhou soldiers: "Don't miss the opportunity, you won't come again!" Brothers, can you bear this atrocity when the Goguryeo people insult the body of my brother in the middle of the world like this? ”
The Qingzhou soldiers shouted in unison: "I can't bear it!" ”
Wang Ping'an raised his sword and shouted, "Should the Goguryeo people be killed?" ”
Qingzhou soldiers shouted again: "Kill!" ”
Wang Ping'an pointed to the city and shouted: "Should the capital of the Goguryeo people be burned?" ”
"Burn!" The angry Qingzhou soldiers roared loudly, as if they wanted to vent all their anger on the capital of Goguryeo!
Wang Ping'an brandished his sword and ran down the hill, shouting as he ran: "Avenge the middle atomic brother!" ”
The Qingzhou soldiers followed him and rushed towards the city, shouting as they rushed: "Revenge for the middle atomic brother, revenge!" ”
Nine thousand soldiers roared in unison, how great the momentum, only a moment, the sound of revenge sounded everywhere, the soldiers and generals with horses on horseback, without horses striding galloping, towards the sea waves, towards the capital of Goguryeo!
Wang Ping'an ran down the hill, jumped on the white dragon horse that Ouyang Li brought to him, held the reins in one hand, raised his sword in the other, shouted revenge, and killed in the direction of Xiao Chang'an first, the strong blood in the body of the Qingzhou soldiers was stimulated, and they followed behind Wang Ping'an and charged together!
The distance of three or four miles does not seem to be close, but it is not far to really run. In a short time, the soldiers ran to a mile from the city gate. And in the open space here, tens of thousands of Goguryeo people are crowded, including men and women, old and young!
The Qingju soldiers landed at the mouth of the sea, and the people of Goguryeo did not realize that this was the enemy, but the Qingzhou soldiers raised the banner of Goguryeo according to the original plan and used it to paralyze the Baekje people, but the problem is that this is not Baekje, and the local Goguryeo people do not know how many naval troops there are in their country?
Goguryeo is different from Baekje, Baekje has a small territory, so it is biased towards maritime development, and has maritime ties with the Wa Kingdom, but Goguryeo and Datang are similar, both are mainly infantry, taking into account the sea. If the Qingzhou soldiers were fighting the Baekje banner, they might really be able to get through it for a while, but they were playing the Goguryeo banner, which was not a Mengren, but a warning!
The people of Goguryeo got the news of the enemy's landing as soon as possible, and immediately fled from the river, and the local defenders of Goguryeo immediately flew to the small court, on the way to prevent the people from being slaughtered by the enemy, they ran and shouted, plus many rich families on the seaside took refuge in Xiaochang'an on horseback, and in just one day's effort, the people of Goguryeo in the four towns and eight villages all knew that the enemy was coming!
The experience of fighting with the Central Empire taught them that as long as the army of the Central Empire came, there was no second way but to flee to the city. Although the people near Xiaochang'an have not been attacked, they don't necessarily have to experience it to get it in person, so the people hurriedly ran to the city, wanting to take refuge in the city!
After the small court learned that the Tang army was coming, it was shocked and did not react immediately, not knowing whether to ask for help or stop the Tang army first. The king of Goguryeo had long been overshadowed by the powerful minister Yuan Gai Suwen, and he was an out-and-out puppet, he couldn't come up with an idea at all, or if he could get an idea, the defending generals in the city would not listen to him.
At this time, Yuangae Suwen had already led a large army to Silla and fought with the Baekje army, and when he left, he was afraid that the king of Goguryeo would toss behind him, so he took all the troops with him, leaving only a thousand soldiers guarding the palace, and the leading generals of this army were still Yuangae Suwen's cronies.
Wang Ping'an had a big oolong trouble, he actually landed on the wrong land, and he didn't even find the right place to attack the country's capital, and the landing location was hundreds of miles away!
However, no matter how the Goguryeo people think, they can't imagine that this kind of thing will happen in the world, and it is not unusual to say that they have found the wrong city, but the strange thing is that they have found the wrong country, why is this leader of the Tang Dynasty eating?
Whether it was Yuangai Suwen who went to Silla, or the Goguryeo king who stayed in Xiaochang'an, who would have thought that the dignified Heavenly Empire would have such a confused general, no one would have imagined it!
Since you can't think of it, then naturally you don't have any preparations!
In the shouting, the Qingzhou soldiers had already rushed into the crowd of Goguryeo people, swords and swords, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of people were put down!
The cry of "Revenge for Brother Zhongatom...... has shocked the sky, and it has already entered the palace in the city!
