Chapter 1228: The Battle of Shanyang! (4)(1/2)

"PS: The "Battle of Sanyang" was the turning point of the Hanoi battlefield. For book friends who think this is a short story, the author just posted an outline: Zhao Run arrived, and then the Korean army was defeated. Well, that's it."

————The following text————

"One, two..."

"Bang!"

"One, two..."

"Bang!"

At the east gate of Shanyang City, a group of Korean soldiers used siege vehicles to hit the city gate one after another.

And inside the city gate, dozens of Shanyang people were clinging to the city gate.

"If this continues..."

Li Feng, the Zongwei of Yanwang Hongjiang and also the general of the Shanyang Army, frowned and looked at the rivets at the interface between the city gate and the city wall pillars, with a somewhat worried look on his face.

Suddenly, with the impact of a Korean siege vehicle outside the city, the city gate made an overwhelming click.

"..."

General Li Feng slowly drew out the sword from his waist, and the more than two hundred Shanyang soldiers behind him, as well as the Shanyang people carrying various weapons, also subconsciously clenched the weapons in their hands.

"Bang!"

There was another loud noise, and half of the city gate was overwhelmed and fell down, pinning a dozen Shanyang people behind it.

In an instant, the Korean troops outside the city poured in like a tide.

"kill!"

General Li Feng shouted and led more than two hundred Shanyang soldiers and more than a thousand Shanyang people to bravely block the gap in the city gate.

However, the number of Korean soldiers was so great that Li Feng's few men alone could not stop the tide of Korean troops.

In just a moment, the Shanyang soldiers and civilians at the gate of the city were defeated by the Korean army.

Although the people of Shanyang County fought tooth and nail to resist, they could not stop the Korean army in the end, and they died in the hands of the Korean army one by one.

"It's over..."

Li Feng laughed sadly.

Thousands of Korean troops poured into the city, killing the militiamen in the city and retreating steadily.

Since the few remaining Shanyang troops were on the city wall at the moment, although the Shanyang people in the city were determined to kill the enemy, they were like a piece of scattered sand due to lack of command and were easily repelled by the Korean army.

After learning about this incident, the Shanyang sergeants and Nanyan sergeants who were recovering from injuries in the city took over the command of the militia with their seriously injured bodies, and directed the people of Shanyang County to retreat into the streets in an attempt to engage in street fighting with the Korean soldiers.

, delaying the city’s capture.

It is a pity that the people of Shanyang County are brave, but after all they are not soldiers who have received formal training. Moreover, 70% of them are women, children and the elderly. Even if they retreat into the streets, how can they be the opponents of the Korean soldiers?

Because the Korean general Ju Xin issued an order to "set up troops for three days," the Korean soldiers deliberately left the young and beautiful Shanyang women unkilled and killed the rest of the Shanyang people.

During this period, there were many young Shanyang women who had their weapons knocked down by the Korean soldiers. They cried and the Korean soldiers forcibly picked them up, kicked open each house, and closed the door with a grin.

However, more Shanyang women would rather die in the hands of Korean soldiers than be insulted by these enemies. Even if they knew they were going to die, they would rush forward with weapons raised without hesitation.

"Burn the house down!"

A seriously injured Shanyang sergeant shouted with all his strength while leaning on a cane, urging the nearby Shanyang people to burn the nearby residences while retreating.

These veterans reminded him that when the people of Shanyang were being slaughtered by the Korean army and retreating steadily, they still did not forget to set fire to nearby houses.

This is the will of thousands of people in Shanyang: Even if the city is breached, you Koreans will never get to Shanyang!

Seeing the fierce resistance of the people of Shanyang in the city, the Korean soldiers became angry and raised their butcher knives.

They also had anger in their hearts: in this battle of Shanyang, their Korean soldiers had sacrificed too many of their comrades. And all of this was blamed on the Shanyang people in front of them!

"Shut down or not?! Surrender or not?!"

After kicking an old man from Shanyang to the ground, a Korean soldier raised his sword and threatened in an angry voice.

However, before he finished speaking, the old man spat in his face.

Seeing this, the Korean soldier became furious, swung down the sharp sword in his hand, and chopped off the old man's head.

But at this moment, there was a pop and a sharp arrow hit his body.

Han Bing turned around in shock and saw among several corpses on the roadside, a girl of only seven or eight years old, struggling to lift a crossbow and looking at him with hatred.

"Little beast..." Han Bing cursed and then fell to the ground with a thud.

When he was dying, he saw the girl being chopped to the ground by his companions, bleeding profusely, but what was permeating was that the girl looked at him, who was also lying on the ground, with a smile on her face.

"ah……"

In the distance, another eager Korean soldier was stabbed to death by a young and beautiful Shanyang woman with a dagger.

Looking at this scene, a Korean general not far away showed a solemn look on his face.

In fact, in the past twenty years, South Korea has captured more than one Wei city, but so far, the resistance of that Wei city has not been as fierce as that of Shanyang.

The Wei people in Shanyang County, whether old or young, men or women, seem to have a will to die rather than surrender.

"Is it because of Wei Gongzijiang?"

The Korean general suddenly thought of Ji Jiang, the son of King Wei, who had taken the lead time and time again.

He felt that Shanyang County was completely different from other Wei cities, probably because this city had a prince from Wei who was in charge, and this Wei prince fought side by side with Shanyang's soldiers and civilians, which greatly inspired Shanyang's soldiers and civilians.

morale.

As long as Wei Gongzi Jiang does not die, the people of Shanyang in this city will not give up their resistance even if the city is destroyed!

"Find Mr. Wei Jiang!"

The Korean general ordered in a deep voice.

At the same time, on the gate tower of the east city gate, King Yan Zhao Hongjiang had taken off his armor and exposed his body.

Beside her, Princess Yan's wife Sun and two concubines were wiping the blood from her husband's body.

Seeing the shocking arrow wounds on her husband's body, Princess Sun of Yan and her two concubines felt heartbroken. With tears in their eyes, they applied hemostatic medicine and wrapped cloth around the wounds for her husband.

"Does it hurt...?" Princess Yan couldn't help but ask, stroking the wound cloth gently.

What catches the eye is the carefree smile of King Yan Zhao Hongjiang. He seems to only be able to say that: It's just a minor injury.

But is it really just a minor injury?

Princess Yan's concubine Sun clearly remembered that when several guards were pulling out arrows for their husbands, His Royal Highness Prince Yan's forehead was sweating like liquid, and he was clearly in extreme pain.

But even so, His Highness remained silent and even smiled to comfort the three girls.

"Report!"

A Shanyang soldier covered in blood quickly walked into the city tower and reported sadly and angrily: "Your Highness, the city gate has been breached by the Korean army. Now the Korean army has entered the city and will kill everyone on sight..."

"..." King Yan Zhao Hongjiang remained silent after hearing this.

Seeing this, several guards nearby advised: "Your Highness, we can no longer stay here. Please Your Highness and several ladies to retreat to the palace as soon as possible."

The palace is the Yanwang Palace. This palace was rebuilt on the basis of the inner city of Shanyang County and covers an area of ​​only one or two miles.

Although there is a city wall, the inner city wall is not as high as the outer city wall in Shanyang County. Since the Korean army can break through the outer city wall in Shanyang County, how can it not be able to break through the inner city?

Therefore, retreating to the inner city is just a matter of survival.

At this moment, a scream came from the city wall. It turned out to be the Korean soldiers who had broken into the city and were trying to attack the city wall from the inside.

Seeing this, the guards of King Yan in the city gate tower went to defend one after another, leaving only two guards.

"call……"

After exhaling slightly, King Yan Zhao Hongjiang was about to stand up, but Princess Sun of Yan held his hand: "Your Highness..."

Patting his beloved wife's hand, Zhao Hongjiang comforted him in a rare and gentle tone: "Don't worry, I'll be fine..."

However, Princess Yan shook her head, with tears in her eyes, and took out a delicate dagger from her sleeve.

Seeing this, King Yan Zhao Hongjiang's expression changed slightly. He had a premonition of what his first wife wanted to say.

At this time, Princess Sun of Yan took the lead and said softly: "Your Highness, although the city gate was breached by the Korean army, there are still my heroic Shanyang soldiers and civilians in the city who are still fighting hard to kill the enemy. Your Highness, you should fight side by side with them.

..." After saying that, she handed the dagger in her hand to her husband and cried softly: "However, I am timid in body and mind. I dare not... dare not... look at you, Your Highness..."

With that said, Ms. Sun stood up, walked to her husband, and snuggled into Zhao Hongjiang's arms.

King Yan Zhao Hongjiang slowly pulled out the dagger, looking a little confused.

At this time, the two side chambers of Zhao Hongjiang got up and lit the wooden building in the city gate building with their torches. Then they threw away the torches and came to Zhao Hongjiang's side.

Looking at each other with the two girls, Princess Sun of Yan wiped away her tears, held Zhao Hongjiang's right hand holding the dagger with one hand, gently pressed it against her chest, touched her husband's face with the other hand, and said affectionately: "Your Highness,

I would never say that it would be such a shame to let Your Highness escape.

As for the scenery, because you are a hero in the hearts of me and others, even if you die in this city, it will not damage your image in the hearts of me and others... I, the three of you, will go underground to wait for you.

In the next life, my three daughters will be lucky enough to marry His Highness..."
To be continued...
