Chapter 773: Goryeo moves its capital

In order to protect his own safety, Jin Yao had to change his previous battle plan, and the defensive military camps also began to rush towards the Chinese army. But as soon as they moved, the dragon army opposite them also moved, and began to chase after the Goryeo army.

In the process of retreating and running, the archers of the Goryeo army lost the ground for defense. Often, when he turned around and released an arrow, and before he was sure whether the arrow had hit a man, the peasant soldiers rode up to him, and then raised their swords and quickly fell, slashing a Goryeo archer who wanted to resist on the ground.

When more and more archers were cut down to the ground, and life and death were unknown, the Goryeo army was even more chaotic.

Under the chaos, some Goryeo troops ran in front of the peasant soldiers. Seeing that there were dragon cavalry in front of him and behind him, the frightened Goryeo soldiers hurriedly abandoned their weapons and knelt on the ground.

And there are not only many such Korean soldiers, but also many of them.

Under the general trend has passed, whoever resists will die. But those who don't want to die can only abandon their weapons and surrender.

On the battlefield, such a scene soon appeared. When the dragon cavalry caught up with a Goryeo formation, the 2,000 Goryeo army often fell to their knees without a fight, they just wanted to live.

The Goryeo front army, in the process of being chased first and surrendering when caught up, completely collapsed the 20,000 Goryeo army.

The front army collapsed, and the situation of the Chinese army was not much better. The 5,000 soldiers sent by the Li family did not flee at the first time, because the head of the family, Li Qi, had given an order, and he didn't want to be the first to flee and attract attention.

But when they learned that the appearance of the dragon cavalry in the Chinese army had threatened the safety of General Jin Yao, these 5,000 people began to rush left and right in the name of rescuing the general.

The chaos of 5,000 people soon led some surrounding Goryeo military formations, and when the army was not formed, and the soldiers did not know the soldiers, and the soldiers did not know the generals, I did not know who was the first to flee backwards in the direction of Kaigyeong.

It can only be said that although the people of the Li family did not flee in the first batch, what they did was greater than the chaos caused by the escape. It was their chaotic movements that made the Goryeo army, which was supposed to have the strength to fight a battle, completely unable to fight back.

With the troubles of the Li family's disciples, the flanks of the Chinese army were also in chaos, and there were no soldiers to help Jin Yao.

Under the rout of the front army and the chaos of the Chinese army, Jin Yao wanted to cry without tears when he saw this result.

How did a good battle situation become like this?

They have the advantage of strength and geography.

Also, how did the dragon cavalry quietly appear in front of the Chinese army, and how did they bypass the military formations of the previous army?

He had checked it during the day, and the distance between the various formations was only less than a mile, and it was impossible for anyone who wanted to pass through without being discovered?

But why, the dragoon cavalry can appear here? Why?

There are too many puzzles, and there are unwillingness. It's just that with the arrival of the other three elite regiments of the Dragon Army, the Chinese army is already in chaos and vulnerable.

"General, withdraw." Several pro-soldiers saw the overall situation and made up their minds, and there was no way to turn it around, and they all looked at Jin Yao with anticipation in their eyes.

They don't want to die here, especially if they continue to resist knowing that they will be defeated, that is, they don't take their lives seriously. There is no point in dying in such a battle.

"Withdraw." Although Jin Yao didn't want to say this, he also knew that at this moment, it would be useless for him to stay, so it was better to withdraw first, stay and wait for a useful body, and serve the country later.

Jin Yao also withdrew, and with his withdrawal, the Chinese army completely lost the ability to resist. Some of the Goryeo troops, who had no war horses and could not run fast, simply abandoned their weapons and surrendered in exchange for a way to survive.

Wang Can, who was covered in blood, didn't know how many people he had killed this time, and the two layers of stab-proof clothing on his body were now in tatters. But his spirit was still very strong, and after seeing that the Goryeo army in front of him was showing a large-scale surrender, he pointed his sword forward and shouted: "All the black horsemen obey the order, continue to attack, and the target is to open the capital!"

.......

The opening of the capital at night is still very lively.

There was still a long queue in front of the city gates, and some carriages of Goryeo courtiers, dignitaries, and gentry and landlords blocked in front of the city gates.

From time to time, there were people who tried to cut the queue, which caused a burst of disputes, which made the convoy leave the city even more slowly.

"There is news from the front, our army has won a complete victory in the northern slope, and now it is coming to Kaijing, it is estimated that our dragon army will be able to arrive around dawn." In a vacant courtyard in the city, Ye Zhen, one of Long Yin's team leaders, was talking excitedly to the sixty or seventy subordinates who had been summoned.

"Long live the Dragon King!" After hearing the good news, all the members of the Longyin team were excited.

After Ye Zhen shouted the slogan along with everyone, he forcibly suppressed his excitement and said, "Now it's time for us to complete the task. You, in groups of three, began to set fire to the city gates to hinder the speed of the Koreans from leaving the city and buy more time for the arrival of the army."

"Yes." The team members agreed in a deep voice, and then divided into more than two dozen teams and turned to act.

Goryeo Royal Palace.

King Wenzong had already fallen asleep and was sleeping soundly, when suddenly the eunuch came to his side and forcibly woke him up.

slept soundly, but was woken up, needless to say, Wen Zong was unwilling, and when he looked at the eunuch, there was even murderous aura in his eyes.

Facing this gaze, the eunuch was frightened and at the same time, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the great pair of Lu and the others are here, just outside the palace, saying that there are 100,000 urgent matters."

Zheng Toe and the others came, and they still asked to see them late at night, and Wenzong immediately had a bad feeling. "Come, serve the lonely clothes."

After waiting for about a stick of incense, just when Zheng Toe, Li Qi, Kim Hee-jeong and Pu Zidao were already impatient, thinking about whether to break into the palace, Wenzong, who was dressed in royal clothes, finally walked out and appeared in front of several ministers.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong, the battle report has just come from the front, and the army has been defeated in the north of Linpo, I am afraid that the dragon army will soon open the capital." As soon as he saw Wenzong, Zheng Toe didn't care about saluting, and hurriedly said such a sentence.

"What? Defeat on the North Slope!"

When he heard the news, Wen Zong was stunned for a moment, then felt a dizziness, and then fell to the side with a crooked figure.

Fortunately, the eunuch who accompanied him was quick and stretched out his hand to help him, so he did not completely fall to the ground.

The person did not fall, but at this time, Wenzong had already lost his bearings. After being supported by everyone and sitting down on the king's chair, he still muttered, "How is this possible, how can an army of 50,000 be defeated in only one day? Even if it's 50,000 pigs, it can't stop the dragon army for just one day, right?"

Wenzong still didn't want to believe this fact, and at this time, Zheng Toe spoke again: "Your Majesty, now is not the time to hold accountable, but the king must move the capital. Move now, and be sure to leave Kaijing tonight, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave."

"Ah! Yes, leave now, quickly, move the capital, move the capital." Wen Zong, who finally came back to his senses, immediately thought of leaving. He didn't want to be locked up in the city and become a captive of Su Shi.

Time was urgent, Wenzong quickly boarded the carriage, and the convoy behind him was seated some princes and a few princesses he loved the most, as for those who were not taken seriously, they could only stay in the palace, waiting for the dragon army to arrive, and resign themselves to fate.

Wenzong's convoy was able to leave the palace, and then the problem came again. The gates were blocked by convoys, and there would be no passage for them to leave for a while. What's even more hateful is that I don't know who secretly set fire to some of the departing carriages, but under the fire, it greatly hinders the speed of leaving the city.

"The army cleared the way and pushed away all the wagons that stood in the way. Those who refuse to accept - kill!"

Wenzong saw that the queue was so long, and when he didn't know when, in a fit of anger, the king's momentum was fully displayed.

At this moment, the kind king is gone, and some are just selfish royal emblems for survival.

Before the south gate, there was a river of blood.

Countless Goryeo soldiers on the king's orders

, he was ordered to kill people, and in addition to killing on a large scale, he quickly cleared a bloody path.

The other magnates in front of the city gate, after learning what happened in front of the south city gate, also moved their minds, and soon, a scuffle began, in order to be able to flee out of the city earlier, everyone killed people when they saw them, and what former comrades and friends were all put in the back of their minds at this moment.

At this moment, everyone became unrecognized.

According to incomplete statistics, in this night's scuffle, the magnates of Goryeo were reduced by a full forty percent, and the gentry were even less than seventy percent.

The privileged class of Goryeo was only one night, and it was more than half of it, which was something that was unimaginable before.

The scuffling in front of the city gate frightened the ordinary people.

In the past, the Goryeo court did not discredit the Dragon Heavenly King, saying that Su Shi was an evil person with a height of three feet, three heads and six arms, and a person who specializes in eating people's hearts.

But so what, compared to the cannibalistic Dragon Heavenly King, the current high-level Goryeo leaders are crazy.

In order to be able to get out of the city, whoever blocked and killed whom, many officials and soldiers were killed by the families and guards raised by the magnates, not to mention the common people.

If they want to get out of the city now, they will definitely die, it is better than having to face the cannibalistic Dragon King, at least they can live a little longer.

The Goryeo people in Kaegyung City were frightened, and no one dared to say anything about leaving the city, so they hid at home one by one, trembling.

When the sky began to brighten, a strong bloody atmosphere permeated the entire Kaijing City, even if the doors and windows were closed, it could still be smelled, which made the people even more afraid. It wasn't until the morning of the day solstice, when the dragon army appeared in Kaijing City, that this atmosphere began to slowly dissipate.
