The massacre of Xijing, Li Chu did not participate. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Even the Qilin Army didn't even enter the city, and found a place outside the city to rest on the ground temporarily. In this attack on Goryeo, the Kirin army only pressed the formation in the back, and even carried out a suppression of the riot when necessary, which was used as a deterrent.

This time, the main attack was still dominated by the Jurchens.

Ma Feng also did not participate in the massacre, he went to count the casualties of this forced siege.

In the end, the casualties were counted.

On the Jurchen cavalry's side, because they were scattered to attack and clean up the various villages of Goryeo Sticks, there is no data on the number of casualties on that side.

And the casualties counted this time are 50,000 Jurchen tribes.

Among them, there were 500 and 3,000, which were soldiers who were lost before the attack on the western capital.

This time there were 46,500 men in charge of the siege, including 2,000 baggage troops.

In the end, the results were calculated that this time the forced attack on Xijing killed 9,000 Jurchens, 3,000 seriously injured and half wounded, and 4,000 wounded.

And the number of war dead on the side of the Goryeo stick has also been counted, 17,000 people died together, as for how many people were slaughtered, it is not very clear.

Since Seogyong is the gateway to the northwest of Goryeo, Goryeo Stick also left a large number of soldiers here.

The casualty ratio of this siege war is almost one to one, although only 9,000 people were killed on the Jurchen side, but there are still 7,000 wounded, and there are 3,000 seriously injured inside, less than half of these 3,000 people are still capable of fighting, and the rest are basically waiting for rescue.

On Li Chu's side, he sent two thousand Qilin troops to escort the 1,800 wounded back to Hushui to recuperate.

As for some minor injuries, just rescue and bandage them, and then continue to fight.

Li Chu is very satisfied with the results of this battle, not bad, yes, it was finally attacked, especially this casualty, yes, nine thousand were killed in the battle, it was enough, after all, this is the first city, and there are several more behind.

The massacre of the city is still underway.

Li Chu didn't have nothing to do outside, he had a lot of gasoline delivered this time.

In addition to this gasoline, there is also a lot of coal, wood, and so on.

Then they were sent all the coal and timber to Xijing City.

About half an hour later, there was no longer a living Goryeo stick in the entire Xijing City.

Then these Jurchens gathered all the corpses of the Goryeo sticks together, covered all the wood and coal that were sent into the corpses, and finally poured gasoline everywhere in the city, and finally lit a fire, and in an instant the whole city burned.

City, Li Chu doesn't want it.

Anyway, after the burning, the walls of the outer city are still there, but there are almost nothing left of the houses in the city, Li Chu doesn't care about this, it's good if it's gone, it's convenient to rebuild it after it's gone, and a lot of people will move here when the time comes.

The key is that there can be no plague, and that's the most important thing.

The flames engulfed the Xijing City, and the heat wave could be felt from afar.

"Let's go."

The army was back on the road, and Ma Feng continued to return to the Jurchen tribe to continue to lead the Jurchen tribe.

The western army went further south, and the next place was Kaigyon, the capital of Goryeo.

Kaegyong is the capital of Goryeo, and a large number of Goryeo sticks will definitely gather in Kaegyong for the offensive and defensive battle of Kaegyo, which may be a tough battle.

The combat effectiveness of the Goryeo people does not seem to be good, at least in the face of the Jurchens, it is one-sided, and even the Great Song is not as good.

But that's okay.

Come to think of it, now that the capital has received a crisis, and behind him is his own homeland, no matter how bad these Goryeo sticks are, they have to burst out some strength, right? This place is not as good as the Great Song Dynasty, you can retreat south, and then go south here is the sea, and there is no place to retreat with the back road.

There is a proverb that says it.

The one hundred and two Qin Passes belong to Chu after all.

I hope this Goryeo stick can do this, otherwise the battle on this side will not be interesting.

It is best to take out the majesty of resisting the Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang's three expeditions to Goryeo when he was in the Sui Dynasty, and to repel this Jurchen force like he repelled the Sui Yang Emperor.

Why did Emperor Yang of Sui conquer Goryeo three times?

The main thing is to transfer some internal contradictions to the outside and divide the strength of those warriors through wars, so they will do everything to conquer Goryeo, and the casualties are so heavy.

Although Li Chu has no internal contradictory pressure.

But his starting point is similar to Yang Guang, the difference is that his intention is to consume the Jurchens.

Li Chu did not issue a massacre order to the Jurchen tribes, but it did not mean that Li Chu would let these Jurchens go.

Whether it is the Jurchens, the Mongols, or the Khitans, or the Xianbei, Wuhuan, etc., these foreigners recuperate in the northern steppes every time, so they invade the south, and each time they are frightened, they retreat back to the steppe, and then beg for mercy, and get the opportunity to recuperate, and then invade again.

From the Shang Dynasty to the present, the cholera from the north to the south has been continuous.

The northern steppes also continued to kill the Han people in the south.

If you want to blame the previous dynasties, they were too benevolent and righteous, too fond of fame, just some apologies and apologies are fine, for some unnecessary false fame, these dynasties also let these Hu people be chaotic in the north, which is why there is the so-called five Hu chaos in history, the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

finally survived the Wuhu Chaohua, but there was another gold, and a more ruthless Mongolia came.

As a result, the Mongols occupied the Central Plains.

finally drove away Mongolia, and finally came to the Qing again.

Whether it is the Qing Dynasty or the Mongols, when these foreigners ruled the Central Plains, not only did they not let the Central Plains culture and science and technology progress, but they were also constantly going backwards, otherwise if they followed their own development speed, there would be no small European countries in the future.

When Britain and France invaded China, they broke the city of Beijing and opened a batch of firearms cast in the Ming Dynasty in the warehouse in the city of Beijing, and the sophistication of these firearms was even better than that of the British and French forces at that time.

This Qing Dynasty was founded by the Jurchens.

The difference is that the current Jurchens are led by the Wanyan Department, and the Jurchens in the back are called Jiannu because they are led by the Jurchens in Jianzhou.

Such a Jurchen, how could Li Chu still keep him.

Keeping them right now is just a waste use.

This southern expedition to Goryeo and western expedition to Mongolia all need people.

Where do these people come from?

Isn't it possible to use the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty in every battle? At least the cannon fodder that has been charging for thousands of years has to be filled by those foreigners, right?

The Jurchens are the best choice.

It is precisely because of this that Li Chu chose to let Ma Feng take the lead, and he didn't need to play any rules and tactics, just go directly to break the city with force.
