Chapter 0769: Imperial Book: Song Shiliufang
At night, the dawn was ushered in early because of the firelight in the sky.
There was no one in the entire small city of the Five Kingdoms, and there was no fighting between the enemy and us, and some were just filled with gunpowder smoke and wailing.
The city was stained with blood, artillery fire, and flesh and blood flew everywhere, as if the entire city of the Five Kingdoms had been cleansed by blood. At the same time, this city of the Five Kingdoms, which carries all kinds of stories, is also slowly disappearing in the merciless bombing......
"Boom, boom!"
The artillery fire rained down in the sky, and the iron sand exploded on the head of the Khitan in a daze, and immediately several people covered their bloody heads and fell to the ground screaming.
Nearly 100,000 Khitan Liao troops fled in all directions, but after all, they couldn't escape the death knell of fate, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, the flames were splashed everywhere, and the continuous explosions came and went, and everything was engulfed in flames.
The city of the Five Kingdoms, which was not grandiose, was gradually razed to the ground, and Wanyan Yuntang, who was located in the south of the Chinese army, and the generals under his command saw this scene, and their faces showed horror.
At the same time, in that look of horror, there was an inexplicable sadness, and a sense of powerlessness hit my heart, causing most of the Jin troops who were plundering the array to bow their heads.
Just after Wu Ting of the Chinese Army transferred troops, didn't they have active thoughts in their minds?
Obviously, there is, and this active psychology is very strong. Because from the standpoint of their Jurchen tribe, how can the hatred of destroying the country be easily quelled?
In particular, several generals under Yan Yuntang's command, after returning to the camp tent of the Jin Army's garrison, persuaded Yan Yuntang to take this opportunity to get rid of the Song army.
But in the end, he was severely reprimanded by Wanyan Yuntang, and beheaded one of the generals with a knife in the camp tent, which temporarily stabilized the uneasy military spirit under his command.
Although Wanyan Yuntang temporarily suppressed the unstable military spirit by this means, he began to have an estrangement from the generals under his command.
The Jurchen people have always revered the strong rather than cowards, and Wanyan Yuntang's current behavior of seeking perfection has made them feel very disdainful.
But now everything in front of them, they were stunned and frightened, they were glad to have listened to Yan Yuntang's arrangement at this moment, otherwise they would not dare to think about it if they were ............
Because what they saw in front of them was no longer something that could be done by manpower, no matter how small a city was, even if it was just a barren land and an earthen city, even if it was ...... But it's still a city after all!
But such a city completely collapsed in front of their eyes, and finally gradually disappeared from view in the roaring firelight, and this strong visual impact had already made them have a deep fear in their bones!
At this time, Wanyan Yuntang stared at the scene in front of him and the sea of fire, and the shock in his heart also made his heart tremble, because this scene was also something he didn't expect.
However, he also breathed a long sigh of relief, glad that he had made the right judgment at the critical moment, otherwise he would not have been able to imagine what would happen to him and his army of 50,000 if they rebelled.
In the face of the hatred of the country, is there no hatred in his heart?
The answer is, yes! And very strongly! Because he is not only an authentic Jurchen clan, but also the royal brother of Wanyan Imperial Family and Golden Emperor Wanyan Yunzhong!
For the hatred of the lost country, since ancient times, only the royal family has felt the deepest, how can he be an exception?
But under the general trend, what choice can he make?
Besides, he is self-aware, at least he is not a hero like Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and he can't ignore the safety of his relatives and clans. There is no brother to complete the talent and ambition of Yan Yunzhong to complete the difficult mission of restoring the country.
He especially remembered a conversation between the imperial brother Wanyan Yunzhong when he escorted the imperial sister-in-law and imperial nephew from Jinzhou to return to Shangjing.
During the conversation, Wan Yan Yunzhong's dying words made him feel very emotional.
"If Jinzhou can be defended, then my fortune is not exhausted; If Jinzhou is lost, and the land of Shangjing is already overwhelmed, you might as well surrender to the Song Dynasty in exchange for a chance to save me the Yan clan's life, and you must not be lucky, because you will never know how many ...... Ye Yu's methods are."
It was precisely because of these few words that he surrendered to the Song Dynasty without much struggle after the holy decree was in hand.
After surrendering, he silently remembered the words of the imperial brother, and did not try to recover the Jin Kingdom by chance. and ignored the instigation of the generals under his command not long ago, and instead suppressed the army's morale with the iron-blooded means of a strong man breaking his wrist.
Everything in front of him now fully proves the correctness of Wan Yan Yunzhong's advice back then. And while he was relieved in his heart, he was also glad that he didn't have any luck and led the Wanyan family to the road of despair......
……
All the buildings in the city of the Five Kingdoms collapsed, causing the 90,000 Liao troops stationed in the city to flee from the four gates.
Like a net-like mine, buried deep in the ground of the Five Kingdoms City, with the artillery flying in the sky, the entire Five Kingdoms City was completely destroyed, and at the same time, nearly seventy percent of the Liao army was directly buried.
The sound of wailing, trampling, and the sound of the bones of the horse trampling on the corpse are endless, and the tragic situation is amazing~!
Looking at the embarrassed Liao army scattered and fleeing, Wu Ting, who was sitting firmly in the middle army, lightly twisted his beard and waited coldly. Because at this moment, it is the best time to harvest the heads of the scattered Liao soldiers.
The army from all sides surrounded the cities of the Five Kingdoms into an impenetrable giant net, just waiting for those panicked little fish to rush into it one by one, and then usher in the last moment of their lives!
The entire battlefield suddenly became a massacre, and the sky, which had just been brightened by dawn, seemed a little gloomy and gloomy at this moment.
Around the ruined Five Kingdoms City, the dry air was damp with thick blood, and the steaming heat was also black and red.
In the city of the Five Kingdoms, where corpses are everywhere, all living lives have been dried up due to overdraft.
A city of five countries has become the burial place of nearly 100,000 troops, and has become a huge tomb rarely seen from ancient times to the present!
During this period, a large number of Liao soldiers naturally took the initiative to surrender, but the officers and men of the three armies followed Ye Yu's consistent style, so that this style became the military rule of the Song army, that is: rebels, kill!; Surrender, kill!
Surrender is not the same as acceptance, so why rebel if you surrender? Rather than this, the only way to stop killing is to kill, so let them surrender first, and then let these people obey!
Therefore, none of the nearly 100,000 troops who guarded the Five Kingdoms City were spared, and the corpses and wreckage stretched throughout the Five Kingdoms City, staining the entire land red.
The remnant sun is slanting westward, and the sunset is like blood, as if it is soaked in the red earth, and the burial of nearly 100,000 Liao troops is the city of the Five Kingdoms!
The smoke of gunpowder dissipated, and the hunting flag of the Great Song Dynasty stood proudly in the entire north!
The razed city of the Five Kingdoms formed a hill tomb, Wu Ting led the army to prepare to retreat, ordered people to bury 100,000 Liao troops on the grave, a huge stone tablet was erected, which was engraved with the imperial book of the Great Song Emperor - Tiandao Huanghuang, Guozuo Yongchang, Han soul immortal, Song Dynasty Liufang!
