Chapter 393: Breaking the City and Destroying Its Country
The fleet sailed fast on the sea, and after a storm, the fleet raised its sails and moved quickly under the blowing of the sea breeze. After the storm, and another miracle was witnessed, and everyone's morale was high.
In just two hours, the coastline looms in the distance. Upon learning that the landing was imminent, everyone cheered in unison.
The fleet quickly sailed towards the coast, quickly past the fishermen's boats that were fishing inshore, and then came to a shore.
Immediately afterwards, countless soldiers quickly disembarked from the ship and went ashore, some of them quickly built a temporary dock with various tools and materials, some craftsmen repaired the ship with materials, and the rest of the sailors quickly set up a camp by the sea to unload the supplies on the ship.
The entire fleet is like a precision war machine, performing tasks quickly and precisely.
After a brief tidying up, Zhao Yi commanded the soldiers of the navy army, and immediately advanced to the peninsula under the guidance of the guide. The place where the fleet landed was not far from Pyongyang, and the fleet was able to come here so accurately because of Wang Yun's presence.
Although Wang Yun no longer used the artifact to control the wind and clouds, with the help of the power of the artifact, Wang Yun's mind could be strengthened and he could control a large area. In this area, he can obtain the God's perspective and observe at will, and with this God's perspective guidance, the fleet can naturally come to the peninsula with great precision.
The 5,000-strong navy marched day and night to Pyongyang, which was actually very close to the sea, wearing rattan armor and armed with weapons and carrying only three days' rations. Although it was night, the 5,000-strong army advanced rapidly under the guidance of Wang Yun.
In just two hours, the 5,000 sailors arrived less than three miles from Pyongyang.
At this time, it was getting late, Zhao Yi ordered the whole army to rest, the army did not make a fire, all of them gnawed dry food, and then forced themselves to rest in the field. Because the army did not carry siege equipment, if they wanted to attack Pyongyang, they had to take advantage of the darkness of night to approach and wait until late at night to attack the city.
Of course, it is also possible to launch a surprise attack the next morning, when Pyongyang opens the city gates, and seize the city gates in one fell swoop.
Wang Yun broke a piece of cold and hard dry food into small pieces, then put it in his mouth, softened it with saliva, and after a while slowly chewed it and swallowed it into his stomach.
"Your Highness, why don't you send a fire to make some food?" Zhao Yi said.
"No!" Wang Yun shook his head and said.
"All the soldiers can endure it, and Lone can do the same, and if the fire is discovered by the enemy in the city, Lone will be the sinner of this battle!"
"Your Highness is noble." Zhao Yi admired.
Wang Yun and Zhao Yi did not rest, the time passed minute by minute, the night became deeper and deeper, and the moon in the sky was blocked by dark clouds at some point, and the sky and the earth became darker and darker.
Even the stars in the sky loomed, and the city of Pyongyang in the distance looked like a giant beast in the darkness.
"It's almost time!" Zhao Yi looked at the stars in the sky and then said, and then sent someone to inform the soldiers everywhere.
For contact in the dark, many trainings have been done as early as Dengzhou, and even in order to prevent night blindness, all the sailors are selected, and at the same time, animal offal is included in the diet.
Zhao Yi notified a few guards, and the guards went to inform the captains, and the captains informed themselves of the team rate they had received, and after passing through layers of transmission, after spending most of the hour, everyone was woken up.
The night was still dark, and in the eastern sky, a star was shining brightly.
Dozens of elite soldiers took advantage of the darkness to quietly approach the city. This is the darkest time of the day, and it is also the time when people sleep the deepest. During this period of time, the confrontation between the Jizi Joseon and the combined forces of the Qianguo and Yan States has been in a tense state, which has also caused these soldiers to not be able to rest.
After a period of confrontation, nothing has happened, and the soldiers at the bottom and even many generals have relaxed their vigilance. In this case, although the order is still carried out, many people have begun to be lazy, for example, now, the soldiers on the night patrol have long been afraid of which leeward place to sleep.
The soldiers on guard had long been lazy to rest, and even the generals who were on patrol at night were too lazy to get up and patrol, and the defenders on the city walls almost fell into a deep sleep. At this moment, there was a sudden sound of metal colliding in the night, the sound was small, and it was blown away by the night wind and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Soon there was a sound of Suosuo, and after a few breaths, a black shadow appeared on the city wall, and after this black shadow climbed the city wall, he immediately pulled some ropes, and his eyes were vigilant to observe the surrounding situation. Immediately after that, one after another black shadows quickly climbed the city wall.
Although Pyongyang Fortress is the capital of the Minzi Joseon Dynasty, the walls are only five or six meters high, and there are many broken parts of the walls. For the elite of the Great Cadres to climb first, it is not difficult to climb over this city wall.
In about a cup of tea, dozens of elites climbed the city wall, and then some of these elites continued to guard several ropes, and the rest immediately went to the city gate.
At the city gate, several guards had fallen asleep, and at this moment, a bright light suddenly flashed in the darkness, followed by the sound of water bags being punctured. Several soldiers guarding the city gates were killed in their sleep.
After solving the soldiers, these people quietly opened the city gate, and after a torch shook according to a special law, Zhao Yi directly ordered: "The army enters the city!" ”
The 5,000 sailors quickly rushed to Pyongyang City, the defenders in Pyongyang were still asleep, a large number of soldiers were killed without even putting on their armor, and only a few smart people directly knelt on the ground and surrendered and survived.
Zhao Yi led a large army to the imperial palace in Pyongyang, and some of them went to the aristocratic district near the imperial city.
The palace in Pyongyang City was not large, its scale was far inferior to that of the Central Plains, and thousands of defenders guarded the palace, but under the attack of the Great Dry Water Army, it only took two attacks before it was completely defeated.
As soon as thousands of large dry water troops swarmed in, the Pyongyang Imperial Palace was like a weak woman who was powerless to resist, and was bullied.
The army marched at such a rapid pace that a large number of members of the Joseon royal family who had not had time to flee were captured, and all those who dared to resist were beheaded. Zhao Yi's surprise attack was so sudden that the Korean lord did not have time to react at all, he was blocked in the palace, and finally was caught by soldiers from under the bed out of the palace.
In the end, more than 100 people such as the queen and the princess, the prince, and the nobles were all wiped out, and at the same time, the aristocratic district also gained a lot, and the nobles in the city also had no time to react, so they became prisoners of the great cadres.
