Chapter 118: Eight Banners Goryeo Surrender Goryeo surrenders
In this era, except for the aristocracy and samurai class, it was impossible for the common people to have surnames, only cheap names such as cats and dogs.
This Hojo Yoshima is in the Wa Kingdom, but he is a little devil with the status of a vassal.
"You dare to come and plunder Tamna Island, don't you know that this is the territory of the Heavenly Empire?" Zhu Han sneered.
"The villain doesn't know! Damn the villain! Hojo Yoshizane begged for mercy in fluent Chinese.
For these widows, Zhu Han originally wanted to kill them all.
But seeing that Hojo Yoshima, a Japanese man, was proficient in Chinese, and all the Japanese under his command were beaten by the Red Turban Army, kneeling on the ground one by one, like quails, without the slightest intention of resisting, Zhu Han immediately had another idea for the future.
"Hojo Yoshima, you dare to invade the Tamna Island of my Heavenly Empire, this is a capital crime, logically speaking, I should behead all of you to set an example!"
When Hojo Yoshima heard that he was going to be killed, he was so frightened that he kowtowed on the ground and begged.
In fact, at this time, he had already heard the other meaning of Zhu Han's words.
If they were really killed, they would have been killed a long time ago, how could they talk nonsense with them.
Hojo Yoshima felt that as long as he showed a pleading attitude, he would probably spare himself.
Zhu Han then said again, "However, now I plan to crusade against the faint kings and traitors of Goryeo, if you widows want to live, then make meritorious contributions and follow me to attack Goryeo!" ”
"If there is merit, I will spare you from death."
"However, if anyone dares to run away or have other intentions, then I will kill all of you!" Zhu Han's words immediately gave Hojo Yoshima hope to live.
"Rest assured, Hojo Yoshima guarantees the family's reputation and life, and we will serve the adults from now on!"
Hojo Yoshima said.
For the Japanese people, eating and sleeping and fighting Goryeo is simply a matter of course, and it is not difficult at all.
Zhu Han felt that this attack on the capital of Goryeo, Kaijing, would definitely encounter a lot of resistance, so that a large number of cannon fodder would be needed, and if another 1,000 Japanese soldiers could be added, it would be more stable.
Two days later, the wind was blowing in the right direction.
At this time, Zhu Han led Hu Dahai and other soldiers to advance mightily towards the north of Tamna Island.
The Goryeo navy in Jeolla Province immediately noticed the movement of these Red Turban fleets, and they hurried to report to the Goryeo general Choi Ying, who was shocked when she heard the news.
Because according to the actions of the Red Turban Army, it seems that they want to attack the hinterland of Goryeo!
Choi Ying hurriedly sent someone to report the movements of the Red Turban Army to Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, and on the other hand, he ordered the entire Goryeo Navy Army in Jeolla Province to be dispatched, trying to use his own attack to stop the Red Turban Army's attack on Goryeo to the north!
However, the Goryeo Navy still overestimated its own combat capabilities.
As soon as the Goryeo navy left the port of Jeolla Province and approached Tamna Island, the Red Turban Navy division remaining on Tamna Island immediately came out of the hidden harbor, and with the excellent maneuverability of the artillery and sail warships, the Red Turban Army battleships were bombarded with one enemy and ten Goryeo sailors.
All the Goryeo warships were defeated.
Completely ignoring the supervision of the Goryeo general Choi Ying, he turned the bow of the ship one by one and fled towards Jeolla Province.
Regarding the defeat scene in front of her, Cui Ying knew that her attempt to stop the Red Turban Army from advancing north had failed.
He immediately left part of his troops to guard the coastal defense of Jeolla Province, and he himself led the elite from Jeolla Province to the north along the land route.
The Red Turban Army had ships to use, and it was naturally much faster than Cui Ying's Goryeo army.
In just over a day, the Red Turban Army had already reached the coast west of Kaegyeong, the capital of Goryeo, which was later the coast of Incheon!
Faced with the Red Turban battleships that suddenly appeared on the seashore, the Goryeo defenders on the shore began to try to resist.
They used a large number of horses and other obstacles on the beach to try to prevent the Red Turban Army from landing the whole ship.
In the face of the resistance of these Goryeo defenders, Zhu Han did not panic at all.
To seize the bridgehead landing site, he has handed over the task of Quan Qian, the general of the Eight Banners of Goryeo, to his subordinates.
Kwon Qian led the Goryeo Eight Banners Army in a small boat and launched a strong attack on the shore.
These Goryeo Eight Banners Army ate and drank well under Zhu Han, and they trained for a long time.
With the sophisticated equipment in his hands, he soon defeated the Goryeo defenders on the shore.
Subsequently, the Goryeo defenders abandoned all border defenses and fled inland.
Zhu Han led the fleet to complete the landing on the seashore unimpeded, and more than 10,000 Red Turban troops advanced along the road to Kaijing.
Kaegyeong, that is, the capital of the Goryeo Dynasty, Kaesong, is called Kaegyong because it is the capital.
Kaesong was only more than 30 miles away from Incheon Bay, where the Red Turban Army had landed, and the news of the Red Turban Army's landing on the coast immediately spread to Kaeongseong City with the escape of the rout.
Kaijing City.
The king of Goryeo, Wang Qi, and his ministers were in chaos.
They never thought that the Red Turban Army would dare to go straight to the royal capital of Goryeo!
For the sudden war, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, was already panicked and at a loss.
He hurriedly asked Qi Zhe, Lu Che and other ministers to discuss countermeasures.
Qi Zhe did not panic at all, he felt that the capital of the Goryeo Dynasty, Kaegyo, could be defended.
"Now there are more than 30,000 soldiers in Kaijing, as long as they can't be trapped, there is absolutely no way for the Red Turban Army to break through Kaijing!"
"King, please hurry up and give an order, mobilize the surrounding troops to come to King Qin, as long as we hold the city, and wait for the arrival of all the soldiers and horses of King Qin, the Red Turban Army will definitely be wiped out by us here!" Qi Zhe said loudly.
Regarding Qi Zhe's suggestion, Wang Qi, the monarch of Goryeo, was a little weak-hearted.
Because the Goryeo King Kyongjing opened the city with the quality of the defenders, he still knows!
The Goryeo Dynasty has also existed for hundreds of years, and the Goryeo Dynasty has many ills of various feudal dynasties.
Their palace guards were also very weak, and the problem of empty pay was also very serious.
However, there was no need for the Goryeo king Wang Qi to open his mouth, and Qizhen's suggestion was immediately opposed by some other Goryeo ministers.
Because the vicinity of the national capital of Kaegyong was the most densely populated and wealthy place in the Goryeo Dynasty.
As long as the Red Turban Army is allowed to attack the Kaijing City, then even if the Kaijing City cannot be broken, a rich land around the city will be destroyed by the Red Turban Army.
These Goryeo ministers and ministers, many of the territorial estates are outside the city of Kaeong.
Many ministers pleaded with the Goryeo defenders to go out of the city to meet the battle, shouting that they would "keep the enemy out of the country."
"King, we should immediately go out of the city to meet the enemy, even if we can't repel the Red Turban Army, once the war is unfavorable, it is not too late to come back to defend Kaijing!" An old Goryeo minister said tremblingly.
"Yes, my lord, we can't give up the people outside the city, this is not in line with the way of the benevolent monarch!" Another Korean minister also said.
After being reminded by these Goryeo 'old loyal ministers', the strange rut also suddenly realized!
Qi Zhe thought about it, yes, how did I forget this!
As the first powerful minister of the Goryeo Dynasty.
The manor land around Kaesong is even more innumerable! Now that the autumn harvest has just been completed, the granaries of the manors are full, and they have not yet had time to be transported to the city for storage.
Qi Zhe also reacted at this time and began to advocate for the Goryeo army to go on the expedition.
Between Incheon and Kaegyong, there are two more passes to defend.
As long as the Red Turbans were held back on the coast of Incheon and prevented from approaching the core area of Kaesong, the Goryeo ministers would be able to defend their estates from being destroyed by the Red Turbans.
At the suggestion of his ministers, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, quickly nodded in agreement.
Subsequently, Goryeo Kaijing City urgently mobilized and gathered a mighty army of 50,000!
There are not only the Goryeo guards in Kaijing, but also the strong men recruited in the city.
This army in Kaijing is ready to rush to the aid as quickly as possible.
At this time, on the coast of Incheon, the Red Turban Army had all completed the landing.
The cavalry who served as a scout in the front to inquire about the news was Lan Yu's department, and as the general of the Red Turban Army, he quickly captured some Goryeo scouts in front.
After the interrogation, Zhu Han basically determined that Kaijing City was indeed defenseless.
Except for a city wall, the combat effectiveness of the Goryeo defenders was basically unguaranteed.
As for the soldiers and horses of each province, the elite was basically concentrated in Jeolla Province.
Zhu Han couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard the news.
"In this way, the opening of the capital is broken, but it is just a flick of a finger!"
On the coast of Incheon, about ten miles ahead, there is a checkpoint called Baelong Pass.
For this pass, Zhu Han didn't take him to heart, because he was short and small, and it was a joke to compare with the pass in the Central Plains.
He said to Kwon Qian, the general of the Eight Banners of Goryeo on the side, and others.
"Now, it's time for you to make meritorious contributions! Conquer the pass in front, and the commander will let the Eight Banners of Goryeo take charge of Goryeo's national affairs! ”
Quan Qian and several generals of the Eight Banners Army of Goryeo immediately nodded in response.
"Please rest assured, I will definitely take the White Dragon Pass next time!"
Subsequently, Goryeo Zhenghei Banner Sovereign Qian and others led the Goryeo Eight Banners Army to fight the red, black, blue and white four-color eight flags, and slaughtered towards Bailongguan!
Zhu Han led the Red Turban Army Headquarters to press the rear of the formation and supervise the battle.
I have to say that after a makeover, the newly equipped Goryeo Eight Banner Army has the appearance of a somewhat strong army.
In particular, the brand-new cloth armor on their bodies looked very majestic in the sunlight.
Kwon Qian led the Goryeo Eight Banners Army to the White Dragon Pass.
He first sent someone to shout at Kannai to persuade him to surrender.
"The king is deceived by traitors!"
"Open the city gate quickly, follow me to Kaijing to eradicate the national thieves!"
"Heaven punish the thief, open the city gate quickly!"
The Goryeo defenders at the head of Bailong Pass City all showed puzzled expressions, they never thought that there were so many Goryeo soldiers in the Red Turban Army.
And looking at the appearance of these Korean soldiers, they are all well-equipped and look mighty.
At this time, the Goryeo White Dragon guard actually recognized Quan Qian, and at first he couldn't believe his eyes, but then he looked at it and saw that it was really Quan Qian.
The angry Goryeo guards stood on the head of the White Dragon Pass and cursed loudly.
"Kwon Qian, as an important minister of Goryeo, you don't know how to repay the kindness of the king, but you surrender to the red turban thief, you deserve death!"
"You Goryeo scum, don't want to step into the White Dragon Pass!"
The defenders of Bailong Pass quickly shot arrows and shot the people sent by Quan Qian to persuade them to surrender on the spot.
The Goryeo defenders hurried out of the city and took the deceased's head back to Baelong Pass in full view of everyone.
With the headless corpse also abandoned outside the White Dragon Pass, the Red Turban Army no longer expects any persuasion to surrender.
Zhu Han smiled coldly, "Order!" There is no living mouth in the White Dragon Pass! After beating this level, there are no chickens and dogs left! Kill all the defenders to make an example! ”
Quan Qian and other generals of the Eight Banners of Goryeo had solemn faces.
"Please rest assured, the last general will lead the army to attack the city!"
Rumble!
Rumble!
Rumble!
With a fierce roar of artillery, the two siege guns carried by Zhu Han with the army launched a fierce bombardment towards the White Dragon Pass in Goryeo.
The defenders of Bailong Pass had never seen such fierce artillery, and the gatehouse on the city was shattered.
Kwon Qian led the Goryeo Eight Banners Army to charge towards the White Dragon Pass.
They erected a ladder and soon climbed the wall of Bailongguan and fought to the death against the Goryeo defenders.
The Goryeo Eight Banners Army are all a group of 'Goryeo traitors', and they also know that they have no way out, so they can only perform desperately in front of Zhu Han.
As long as all the Koreans are like themselves and become 'Goryeo traitors', then they will be able to become masters in Goryeo again.
It has to be said that the combat effectiveness of the Goryeo defenders was really weak.
In Zhu Han's opinion, the Eight Banners of Goryeo are already very weak in combat power, but they are a level higher than the Goryeo defenders.
It took less than two hours for Bailong Pass to be breached by the Goryeo Eight Banners Army.
Facing the surrendered Goryeo defenders in the city, Zhu Han ordered them all to be beheaded!
All the heads were collected and escorted by the Eight Banners of Goryeo to the next pass.
Show it to the Goryeo defenders at the next pass and let them see what the resistance will do!
Thousands of heads were still dripping with blood, and they were picked on the tip of the gun by the Goryeo Eight Banner Army!
After the Red Turban Army broke through the White Dragon Pass, only a small number of soldiers and horses were left to garrison, and then without stopping, they immediately advanced towards the next pass in front.
According to the reconnaissance information, as long as the Red Turban Army breaks through the next Xuanwu Pass, then they can directly reach the plain outside Kaijing City.
Arrive directly at the city of Kaijing!
The Goryeo defenders on the Xuanwu Pass never expected that the Red Turban Army would have such a strong strength!
It only took them less than half a day to break through the White Dragon Pass in front of them, and all the defenders of the White Dragon Pass were slaughtered! Bloody human heads are placed under the Xuanwu Pass!
Quan Qian sent someone to persuade him to surrender again, shouting loudly.
"The Mongols are brutal and don't dare, the Hu Lu is exhausted, and China is revived!"
"I, waiting for the loyal ministers of Goryeo, will go to Kaijing to kill the traitorous ministers, save the king, and save Goryeo!"
"If you don't open the city and surrender, this is the end."
The generals of the Goryeo defenders at the Xuanwu Pass did not surrender obediently, but instead sent the defenders to shout and curse at the head of the city.
Kwon Qian, these 'Goryeo traitors', in the face of the angry scolding of the defenders, did not care at all.
Because they know that the defenders of Xuanwu Pass are already certain to die.
As Zhu Han waved his hand and gave the order, the war drums of the Red Turban Army sounded again!
Quan Qian led the Goryeo Eight Banners to launch a fierce attack on the Xuanwu Pass, and with the help of the Red Turban Artillery, the Goryeo Eight Banners soon broke through the Xuanwu Pass!
This time it's even faster than breaking through the White Dragon Pass.
Regarding the excellent achievements of these Goryeo Eight Banner soldiers, Hojo Yoshishin and other Japanese soldiers who were watching the battle from the sidelines were all dumbfounded.
These widows are already a little skeptical of life.
Is this really a Korean? How can the cowardly Koreans be so reluctant on weekdays?
Could it be that he was possessed by some kind of witchcraft and went crazy?
Hojo Yoshishin and these widows looked at each other, and they couldn't figure it out at all...... How did the Eight Banners of Goryeo burst out with such a strong combat power after changing their skins.
This kind of combat power, not to mention in the Goryeo Kingdom, even in the Wa Kingdom, can definitely go sideways.
Even the shogun who deposed the emperor, I'm afraid... There are only 10,000 such strong elites.
Hojo Yoshishin and these Japanese don't know the reason for the soaring combat effectiveness of the Goryeo Eight Banner Army.
Zhu Han knew it clearly.
Looking at those Goryeo Eight Banner soldiers who fought hard to win, Zhu Han smiled and said to Hu Dahai and the others next to him.
"You see, the same Koreans, the Eight Banners of Goryeo are definitely much more powerful!"
Hu Dahai, Lan Yu and others on the side said with a smile.
"It's all the deputy marshals who are well-trained!"
"These Goryeo captives have become the division of tigers and wolves today, and the deputy marshal is powerful!"
Zhu Han smiled and said, "Haha, the division of tigers and wolves? They are still far behind, but there is still no problem in dealing with these cats and dogs in Goryeo! ”
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
In fact, Zhu Han knew that he didn't teach these Goryeo Eight Banner Army any training methods, but only gave them sufficient supplies.
These Goryeo Eight Banner Army drilled every day, and all of them were not allowed to withhold three meals a day, although there were no big fish and meat, and they could not compare with the elite level of the Longxing Army and the Model Army.
But the worthless things like multigrain rice, pickles, and kimchi are all full.
Take pity on these Goryeo soldiers.
In the previous days, the Goryeo generals had been half-starved and half-fed by empty salaries, but now they can be fed and clothed under the Red Turban Army, and they don't work hard one by one.
Moreover, this time they returned to Goryeo, before the war, Zhu Han had already sent someone to tell them that as long as they could enter Kaijing, they would return to Goryeo to turn over serfs and sing, and then everyone in the Eight Banners of Goryeo could divide Liangtian, Daya and Goryeo Mei.
It is not surprising that these Goryeo Eight Banners soldiers burst out with super combat power that they have never seen before.
The speed at which the Red Turban Army broke through these two passes was so fast that Kaijing City didn't even get the news.
The Goryeo defenders have just completed their mobilization in the city and are holding a pledge meeting outside the city of Kaeongseong!
Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, wore a military uniform and made a magnificent march for the powerful ministers of Goryeo who were about to go on the expedition.
The Goryeo garrison had 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses, and they collected strong men from the city.
These people are sparse and have no combat effectiveness, and can only serve as atmosphere group and cannon fodder.
Outside the city of Kaijing, after a slaughter of cattle and blood sacrifice flags, and the prayers of heaven and earth, the vanguard of the Goryeo army has just begun to advance.
Not long after they left, there was a sudden cloud of smoke and dust in front of them!
Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, and the main general Qi Zhe are still under the capital of Kaijing.
At this time, I was also very surprised by the smoke and dust that appeared in front of me.
"What the hell is going on?" Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, was puzzled for a while.
"The king, I am sure that the people there heard that there were thieves and wanted to enter the capital in a panic!"
"Order the gates to be sealed off and these untouchables will not be allowed to enter the city!"
The powerful minister said.
Since the people of Goryeo were all in front, the king of Goryeo, Wang Qi, ordered his entourage.
"Send someone to tell these people that our army of Goryeo is about to go out to fight against the thieves, so that they don't panic and just stay where they are."
Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, said, and then a group of Goryeo Praetorian Guards rode forward.
As they got closer and closer, they realized that something was starting to go wrong.
Because there was not a single Goryeo common man in front of them, but instead the banners were waved, and a large number of troops were holding bright spears and swords, and they were killing fiercely in their direction.
The Goryeo defenders saw that the situation was wrong, this was a thief, not a common people!
They turned their horses around and ran back.
Seeing these Goryeo forwards, Lan Yu and the others, who were in the lead, naturally refused to let them go, and immediately urged their horses to chase and kill the Goryeo army in front.
They soon led their elite cavalry to the front of the Goryeo army, causing chaos in the Goryeo army.
Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, only learned about it when he got the report......
The thieves in front of him turned out to be from the sea, and they were immediately shocked.
It's only been a day's work, why did the Red Turban Army run more than 30 miles?
Could this be a heavenly soldier?
Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, was frightened and hurriedly fled back into the city, and the Goryeo general Qi Zhi was at a loss for these sudden Red Turban Army.
Because, if the Red Turban Army can kill the distance to Kaijing, it means that the White Dragon Pass and the Xuanwu Pass in front have been lost.
There are thousands of elite defenders there!
Thousands of elites can't hold the two passes, what a tough enemy this must be?!
The vanguard cavalry of the Red Turban Army led by Lan Yu was originally the elite of the elite.
This time, in the face of the weak Goryeo army, it was as if it was in a no-man's land, and soon killed the Goryeo army's forwards and fled in all directions.
Seeing the cavalry of the Red Turban Army that suddenly appeared in front of him, the Goryeo army was originally a rabble, and now it is even more unbearable.
The Goryeo soldiers rushed to the rear of Kaeongseong, and for a while the Goryeo army was in chaos.
The Goryeo generals could not find their own soldiers, and the Goryeo soldiers could not see their generals.
Tens of thousands of people were outside the capital city, and there was chaos outside the city.
Faced with such a panicked defeat, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, suddenly felt that the world was spinning.
"It's broken! It's a big deal! ”
"It's ruined!"
The king of Goryeo, Wang Qi, wailed bitterly.
The eunuchs and soldiers around him didn't care about this, so they pulled Wang Qi to the horse and fled towards Kaijing.
But the panicked rout was completely disorganized.
They blocked all the roads, and hundreds of people scrambled to trample inside the narrow city gates.
Many Goryeo soldiers were pushed by the crowd and fell into the moat.
All of a sudden, screams rang out one after another in the Goryeo army.
Behind the blue jade, Zhu Han had an unobstructed view of the wonders outside the capital city.
He never thought of it......
The charge of a small group of cavalry of the Red Turban Army actually caused chaos among tens of thousands of Goryeo troops.
Zhu Han pointed to the front with a horsewhip or two, and said loudly.
"The Goryeo army is vulnerable, but it is just a chicken!"
"Don't miss the opportunity! You don't need to line up, charge me quickly! ”
Chen Baodao beside him, Quan Qian and others also immediately received their orders.
After Zhu Han's order was issued, tens of thousands of Red Turban troops were too lazy to line up at all, and directly launched a charge outside the capital city.
The momentum of the Red Turban Army's attack was like a tsunami in the mountains, rushing towards Kaijing.
Up and down the Goryeo army, there were still some generals who wanted to maintain order and organize the Goryeo army to counterattack, but now they saw that the main force of the Red Turban Army had already killed them, and they all gave up the struggle and fled to the city of Kaeongseong with the rout.
Tens of thousands of people crowded and trampled outside the city, and layers of Goryeo soldiers were squeezed into corpses, blocking the gates of the capital.
The guards around Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, shouted loudly while guarding Wang Qi to flee for his life in the direction of Kaijing.
"Get out of the way!"
"Get out of the way! Make way for the king! ”
"Make way for the King!"
However, the shouts of the pro-soldiers did not work in the slightest.
These Goryeo defeated soldiers who have already panicked, no matter what kind of king you are, or what kind of general and prime minister you are, are all not as important as desperately escaping back to Kaijing City.
All of a sudden, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, was also trapped in the chaos.
At this critical moment, a Goryeo pro-army general had an idea and immediately fled to the side with the personal soldiers of Goryeo King Wang Qi.
As long as they escape to the south gate, they can run into the capital city.
Under the escort of these personal generals, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, finally left the most congested direction of the west gate and rushed towards the south gate.
At this time, the main force of the Red Turban Army behind him has been killed!
The Red Turban Army was already well-equipped, but now with its unstoppable momentum, it slaughtered indiscriminately behind the Goryeo rout.
Among them, the Goryeo Eight Banners Army led by Quan Qian is even more like a tiger entering the flock!
At these fellow Goryeo townspeople, they slashed and stabbed indiscriminately.
All of a sudden, what was originally the Goryeo Dynasty's sworn battle against the Red Turban thieves has now turned into a tragic Shura field.
The blood of the defeated soldiers of Goryeo was poured like a river!
Tens of thousands of Goryeo soldiers scattered and fled, and the moat outside the capital was also crowded with people who fell into the water! Layer by layer, the rout fell into the moat.
Soon, the Goryeo soldiers who fell from the upper floor completely crushed and trampled the defeated soldiers at the lower level.
It took less than a moment for the layers of corpses to fill in the moat!
The west gate of the capital city has been completely blocked by layers of corpses, and many of the Goryeo soldiers have fallen into madness, digging the earth in the ground with their bare hands, trying to dig a hole to hide themselves in.
However, all in vain.
As more and more of the main forces of the Red Turban Army arrived.
The Goryeo Eight Banners Army, led by Kwon Qian and others, has completely controlled the situation on the battlefield.
Zhu Han was in the rear of the Red Turban Army, and he had already seen the 'heroic' performance of the Goryeo Eight Banners in front.
Zhu Han smiled meaningfully.
"It seems that to deal with these Koreans, you have to use a stick to save yourself worry and effort."
In the face of such a defeat, many Goryeo defeated soldiers have already reacted.
They knew that there was no hope of entering Kaijing City through the West Gate.
The routs began to gallop around the city in both north and south directions.
They wanted to enter the city through the other two gates of the city.
But...... Most of these routs were infantry, and they couldn't win at all, and the cavalry of the Red Turban Army chasing behind them.
Lan Yu and the others led the cavalry of the Red Turban Army, and slashed and killed these Goryeo soldiers who fled for their lives in a panic.
On the battlefield, the tragic massacre on this side lasted for nearly an hour.
In the originally noisy battlefield, except for the Goryeo rout who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, there was no longer a single figure of resistance.
At this time, on the capital of Goryeo, the Goryeo soldiers who stayed in the city saw the tragic battle outside the city just now.
Many people's legs were already shaking with fright.
Many people were so frightened by the tragic scene in front of them that they peed their pants, and bursts of urine and commotion soon floated on the head of Kaijing City.
"The king is here!"
"The king is back! Open the door! ”
"The king is here, open the gates quickly!"
Under the escort of the pro-army, King Wang Qi of Goryeo finally returned to the city from the south gate of Kaijing, but there are not many people who are as lucky as King Wang Qi of Goryeo.
The vast majority of the Goryeo rout died outside the city of Kaeongseong.
Among them, only a few were actually killed by the Red Turbans.
Most of them trampled on each other or fell into the moat and drowned, and the remaining Goryeo soldiers who survived were almost all taken prisoner by the Red Turbans.
After this fiasco, the entire city of Kaijing has become an empty city with no defense.
When King Wangqi of Goryeo returned to the city, he immediately ordered the four gates to be sealed and sealed.
For those routs outside the city who were still begging and trying to escape into the city, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, had no mercy at all.
He ordered the defenders to drive the rout away with a volley of arrows, and even wanted to get them back to continue the battle.
In the face of the ruthless actions of the king of Goryeo, Wang Qi, these defeated soldiers fled from the city wall one after another.
They soon encountered the Eight Banners of Goryeo holding high the banner of the Red Turban Army!
Quan Qian, the banner lord and general of the four-color and eight-banner banners, and others chose to accept these Goryeo defeated troops who were abandoned by the king of Goryeo, Wang Qi, and took them over.
"Marshal Qiqi, now the capital is empty, there are only two or three thousand soldiers and horses at most, as long as we work hard, we will definitely be able to attack the city!" After capturing some prisoners, Quan Qian obtained information about Kaijing and hurriedly reported to Zhu Han.
Zhu Han was also very happy when he heard it.
In this way, the Red Turban Army will be able to attack the city of Kaijing and capture Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, alive in less than two days.
Zhu Han smiled and waved his hand, and said to Quan Qian and other generals of the Eight Banners of Goryeo.
"You did a good job, in this battle outside the capital, you rushed to the front, and the commander will give you a credit, and when you break through the capital, you will be rewarded!"
Quan Qian and other generals of the Eight Banners of Goryeo were overjoyed when they heard this, and they had already seen the hope of 'returning home'.
Now that Kaijing City is weak, they only need a fierce offensive to completely take Kaijing City.
"Please give an order to the marshal, let me wait for the marshal to capture Kaijing!" Quan Qian hurriedly asked Zhu Han for battle.
Zhu Han waved his horsewhip and said, "Okay! Ben Shuai will give you the opportunity to make new contributions this time! ”
A moment later.
The soldiers of the Eight Banners of Goryeo roared and lined up in Kaijing.
They drove the Goryeo rout that had just been gathered and rushed towards the front of Kaigyong.
These Goryeo routs who had already been frightened by the Red Turban Army, in the face of the fierce Goryeo Eight Banners, how could they still have the slightest intention of resisting to the end, so they could only rush forward with their heads bored.
However, the defenders of Kaijing City were not good men and women.
For these comrades who were driven away, the Goryeo defenders did not hesitate to release crossbow arrows.
A tragic wail sounded under the capital city!
The role of these Goryeo routs was naturally used as cannon fodder, consuming the strength of the defenders.
The Eight Banners of Goryeo held shields and wore heavy armor, and followed closely behind, and ladders were erected on the city wall.
The shortage of troops in Kaijing City was soon exposed.
The Goryeo Eight Banners Army only used two charges to completely take down the west gate of Kaijing, and for a while, the blood-like red banner of the Red Turban Army floated high on the tower of Kaijing.
At this time, the king of Goryeo, Wang Qi, had already led his ministers and soldiers to hide in the palace of Goryeo.
When the news of the fall of the west gate of the capital came, Wang Qi was already in despair!
The fall of the West Gate means that the Red Turban Army is about to attack Kaijing.
At this time, Kaijing City is completely unstoppable!
Many pro-soldiers, as well as his entourage, persuaded Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, to abandon everything and run away to break through!
However, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, fell into hesitation at the critical moment.
Because his queen pagoda has just fallen ill, if he runs away with the breakthrough at this time, he will probably have to toss his queen to death on the road.
Wang Qi and Queen Goryeo Pagoda have a deep relationship, a combination of standard concubines, and a model couple of love!
At such a dangerous moment, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, naturally refused to leave his queen, and it was in danger of dying at any time.
Just as King Wangqi of Goryeo hesitated, bursts of thick smoke lit up in the eastern, southern, and northern directions of the capital of the Goryeo king.
A great number of cries were heard from outside the city to inside the city.
Many Goryeo nobles and officials, who were ragged and covered in blood, ran into the Goryeo palace crying and screaming.
"King!"
"The king is not good! The four gates of Kaijing have been blocked by red turban thieves! ”
"We can't break through anymore!"
After hearing this bad news, Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, was suddenly heartbroken.
He almost fainted in a moment.
The surrounding pro-Goryeo soldiers were all hands and feet, and Wang Qi was supported.
At this time, many ministers suggested to the king of Goryeo, Wang Qi.
"King, the situation is so urgent, we must make a decision early!"
"Please write a letter of surrender to the Red Turban Army!"
"That's right! King! ”
"In order to protect the country of Goryeo, surrender!"
"King, for the sake of the people of Kaijing, surrender."
Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, was not a strong person in the first place, but now when he saw such a desperate scene, he immediately agreed to the advice of the ministers and chose to surrender.
He ordered someone to take the great seal of the king of Goryeo, wrote a letter of surrender, and then stamped the great seal and ordered it to be taken out of the palace.
The messenger held high the white flag and headed for the Red Turban Army.
Outside the capital city.
Zhu Han was in the Chinese army array of the Red Turban Army, looking at Kaijing City in front of him, and showed a satisfied smile.
At this time, the main force of street fighting in Kaeongseong City was all the Goryeo Eight Banner Army.
Because although the capital is not large, there are many houses and streets in it, and it can also divide the organized army.
The Red Turban Army entered the city to fight in the streets, and it was bound to fight with the remnants of the Goryeo army.
This kind of bad battle to be filled with strength and human life, Zhu Han is unwilling to deal with it with his own people.
So he asked the Eight Banners of Goryeo to sweep in front.
After a while, a group of Goryeo Eight Banners holding a black flag in front escorted a Goryeo official wearing white clothes and holding a white flag to the front of the Red Turban Army.
"Enlightened handsome! The king of Goryeo sent someone to ask for surrender! Kwon Qian, who was in charge of the escort, said.
When Zhu Han heard this, he immediately laughed.
"The Koreans want to surrender, so quickly?"
"How long has it been? Wang Qi, the king of Goryeo, wants to surrender, and I want you to make more contributions! ”
Quan Qian immediately said when he heard this, "Commander Qiyu, the last general has basically controlled the situation in the city, and the remaining stubborn people are setting fires, and the last general is leading his troops to suppress the fire, and the defeat of Goryeo has been decided!" ”
The attack on Kaeongseong was all carried out by the Goryeo Eight Banner Army.
The Goryeo defenders who set fire to the city as mentioned by Kwon Qian are completely nonsense, because the people who really set fire to and loot in Kaegyung City are none other than the Goryeo Eight Banners.
The Koreans plundered their own people, but one was counted as one, and it was definitely more energetic than fighting.
With a wave of his hand, Zhu Han asked him to bring the Goryeo envoy to him.
As soon as the Goryeo envoy saw Zhu Han, he immediately held the surrender document of the king of Goryeo in his hand, knelt on the ground and said loudly.
"King Wang Qi of Goryeo bowed his head again! Please surrender to the Emperor Song Marshal! Please thank the people and receive the letter of our country! No matter what you ask, as long as you protect the people of Goryeo, the king of my family will agree! ”
Zhu Han didn't seem to care much about this official's words.
He asked Quan Qian next to him about the person's origin.
"Dashuai, this person's name is Lu Che, and he is the head of the Goryeo Lu clan!"
The Goryeo Lu family is also claimed to be descendants of the Chinese, but their true identities are difficult to identify.
I don't know if it's true or false.
In fact, Quan Qian and this messenger Lu Che have long been acquaintances.
They turned out to be officials of the 'pro-Yuan faction', and they were in the government of Zaifu!
"Since you, the king of Goryeo, sincerely ask to surrender, then well, I'm not a cruel person!"
"As long as I agree to my request, I can get the armies to withdraw
Kaijing! Zhu Han said slowly.
"Please speak up, no matter what the request, my king can agree!" Lucher said hurriedly.
Zhu Han said coldly, "Then you have to listen well, there is no room for negotiation in every article, there is no other way but to accept!" ”
"First, it's grain and grass! You asked your king to give me enough 100,000 loads of grain to open the capital and all the grain in the official warehouses in various places! ”
The opening was 100,000, and Lu Che's face turned pale with fright.
Because, although 100,000 quintals of grain is not much, for Goryeo, it is definitely not easy to take out.
Over the years, not only the Central Plains has been repeatedly hit by droughts and floods, but the Goryeo Peninsula has also suffered frequent disasters, and the government treasury has to deal with domestic riots, and also has to deal with all kinds of Japanese robbers on the sea, and naturally needs a lot of grain and grass, 100,000 quintals of grain is enough for 10,000 troops to eat horses and chew on Tamna Island for a year.
