Vol 4 Chapter 27: Siege of Pyongyang
The battle with Goguryeo has come to the final and most critical juncture. The Sui army has completely reconciled at this moment, gathering millions of people to surround the capital of Goguryeo - Pyongyang!
As long as the city is captured and the King of Goryeo is captured, the last resistance of the entire Goryeo will be disintegrated. Even if there are still people left in Goryeo, under no one's organization, a group of guys who can be said to be farmers, so what? Maybe match the Sui army?
In one fell swoop, Koguryeo was pacified, and the great cause of pioneering new territories, which was unprecedented in the ages, was completed. The Sui army was extremely excited.
However, Pyongyang City, as the last foundation of Goguryeo, now gathers the country of Goguryeo, the last elite and the last strength of this nation. Countless heroes who have arisen at the right moment, united at this moment, want to break it in one fell swoop, how easy is it?
The Sui army has been besieging the city for half a month, and has carried out more than ten sieges in succession. Under the strong counterattack of Goguryeo, it has never been able to shake the city, let alone break the city wall. So far, the Sui army has not even touched the city wall.
"Hmph, trash! Trash!" Yang Guang looked at the many generals in the tent angrily, "Are you all on dry food? With several times the enemy's army, the most sophisticated ordnance, the most adequate logistical support, up to now , you haven't grabbed a brick from the top of Pyongyang, what's the use of asking you?"
Many Sui generals bowed their heads and said nothing, one of them couldn't help being scolded by Yang Guang: "Reporting to the emperor, Pyongyang City cannot be attacked for a long time, although we are guilty of dereliction of duty, but it must not be attributed to our fault alone, but more importantly. What’s more, the resistance of Gao Lijun is too fierce, the people of the whole city are enthusiastically participating in the war, and as soon as we approach the head of Pyongyang city, we are smashed by the overwhelming stones and unable to move forward, it is really helpless!”
"Excuses, they are all excuses!" Yang Guang said angrily, pointing at the many generals, and finally he said: "Tomorrow I will personally command, but I want to see if Pyongyang is really so difficult to chew?"
Many generals looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
Early the next morning, Yang Guang gathered an army of one million troops and tightly surrounded the four gates of Pyongyang City.
Yang Guang, dressed in armor, sat under the canopy, looked at the city of Pyongyang, and said sternly: "King Yingyang, I limit you to surrender within a single stick of incense, and I can also consider to spare your life and give you a lifetime of prosperity and wealth, otherwise I will wait. After I break through the city gate, I will definitely destroy the entire gate of your Goguryeo royal family!"
"Yang Guang, you are so shameless! You devil, invade our country, harm my people, and plunder my Goryeo. This king is the king of Goguryeo, how can you surrender like you, wishful thinking!" King Yingyang of Goguryeo stood in the city Head, cold eyes and Yang Guang looked at each other.
Yang Guang was very angry about his attitude and immediately ordered a siege.
"The soldiers of the Da Sui, kill the last city of Goguryeo, and capture King Yingyang for me! The first person to climb the city's head will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and will be promoted to three levels! Those who kill Fu Cailin will be rewarded with ten thousand gold, and will be awarded the title of five thousand households. Capture the King of Yingyang alive, keep his name in history, and seal the title of Marquis of Wanhu!" Yang Guang stimulated the morale of the Sui army with a generous reward.
"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!"
All the Sui soldiers were red-eyed, the dust filled the moat, and the cloud ladders ran across, and they fought to kill the city of Pyongyang.
"Release the arrows! Release the arrows!" King Yingyang roared, and the rain of arrows over the city of Pyongyang fell like a tide, and rows of Sui troops fell in response.
However, this did not affect the madness of the Sui army. For the first charge, the Sui army had tens of thousands of people charged, and there were still many lucky Sui soldiers who approached the city of Pyongyang.
"Rush up to me, kill!" Yang Guang shouted and ordered, "Release the arrows and cover them!"
The 100,000 archers behind Yang Guang received the order, and immediately shot endless crossbows at the city of Pyongyang.
The rain of arrows shrouded the sky, and even He Heng was a little scared. Even if he was shrouded in such a dense rain of arrows, he probably wouldn't last long. When his true energy was exhausted, he would turn into a hedgehog.
Of course, with He Heng's spiritual realm, he can already achieve the realm of "The Prophet of the Cicada before the autumn wind has moved". Anyone who has murderous intentions against him can find out in advance, but it is impossible to deal with him with this kind of arrow rain. Yes, unless there is a powerhouse above the fetal realm that deceives the heavens and interferes with his telepathy, but those powerhouses who want to kill him can just do it directly, and there is no need to make such trouble.
Under the cover of Yang Guangjianyu, many Sui soldiers approached the city of Pyongyang. The city wall of Pyongyang City is very high, a full 20 feet. It would be too difficult to hit it directly with a ladder, so this time the Sui army used a different method.
This method is called digging the wall!
Holding various tools prepared in advance, each Sui army turned into a demolition team and began to excavate the bricks of the Pyongyang city wall.
King Yingyang, Daji, hurriedly ordered people to throw stones from above, smashing the Sui army who dug into his corner one by one. But unfortunately there were too many Sui troops, killing and injuring a batch of them, and they were immediately replaced by others. And as long as a hole is dug through the city wall of Pyongyang, the city will be broken.
At this time, Yang Guang ordered a trebuchet to throw a large number of burning stones into the city of Pyongyang.
"Damn, **** it!" King Yingyang yelled on the city of Pyongyang. Pieces of stones were thrown into the city of Pyongyang, smashing countless buildings. The fire began to spread, and many Goguryeo people were burned by the fire. Rolling and screaming.
"Quick, put out the fire!" King Yingyang shouted.
As the capital of Goguryeo, Pyongyang City has sufficient facilities, including firefighting.
In fact, before the Sui army attacked, Goguryeo had made arrangements for their fire attack. After all, it was not the first time that the Sui army had attacked the city in this way.
Therefore, King Yingyang deliberately dug various canals in the city in advance. Although the Sui army cut off all water sources outside Pyongyang, the Goguryeo people like well water the most, and most of their drinking is groundwater.
King Yingyang had already connected countless water wells in the city with countless canals, and the water sources were densely distributed everywhere, making it very convenient to put out fires. So the fire comes and goes quickly.
At this time, King Yingyang learned Yang Guang's method of setting fire, and ordered the Gaoli army to throw torches on it and set them on fire at the soldiers of the Sui army who were digging the walls.
The soldiers of the Sui army were not in the city of Pyongyang, and there were no firefighters around. As soon as the fire started ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, it spread rapidly, burning thousands of people on the spot, and then when they fled back to the military camp, tens of thousands of soldiers were basically I was burnt to varying degrees. It is summer now, and the burns of this degree are immediately infected and obscure, and they have an unpleasant smell. They have various diseases, which spread, and tens of thousands of soldiers died within a few days.
This matter fell to Yang Guang, but it made him extraordinarily annoyed.
In the big tent, Yang Guang looked angrily at the many generals and said, "Tell me, my army of one million people in the Great Sui Dynasty was besieging a Pyongyang city in a mere area. "
Some generals came in and said: "Report to the emperor, the general will think that this is not a crime of war, nor is we incompetent."
"What's the reason for that? Tell me about it!" Yang Guang shouted.
The general said: "Since ancient times, the siege of a city has been extremely difficult. It has to be surrounded and attacked with several times the strength. Generally, there is a stalemate until the food and grass are cut off or the people's hearts are unstable. It is the capital of Goguryeo, which has been operated by Goguryeo for hundreds of years. The city has high walls and thick walls, with sufficient food, grass, and water sources, and all kinds of equipment are complete.
"And Goguryeo has been defeated and retreated, and this city of Pyongyang is its last hope. It gathered the last elites of the entire country of Goguryeo. Under the pressure of the country's subjugation, they all burst out with the strongest energy, reporting the mentality of death, and the whole city was filled with soldiers. The whole nation is a soldier, so it is possible to repel our Great Sui soldiers again and again.”
The general had just finished speaking, when Shi Zhixuan suddenly stepped forward and said, "The old minister thought that what this general said was very true, and this is the reason why I couldn't attack Da Sui for a long time."
"Then tell me, what should I do to break through this city?" Yang Guang looked at Shi Zhixuan coldly.
