Chapter 200 - Assault of Korean City
"Ahead is the Yellow River!" The carefree child looked to the front and said.
The sky was incomparably dark, and a light snow was floating in the sky. However, with Xiao Yunzi's strong inner force, he could clearly see everything before his eyes!
"That's right!" Ahead is the Yellow River, from here we can go to the Guan Shan! Once we get to the Guan Shan, the Emperor Xuanwu will be dead for sure! " Wanyan Zongwang said with excitement.
This was Longmen County. In front of them was the famous Longmen Ferry, also known as the Yumen Ferry! According to legends, in ancient times, the Yellow River was overflowing, and the common people in the world met with calamity. The Great Yu split open a mountain, allowing the Yellow River's water to pass through. Therefore, this place was called Yu Men! Ancient Chinese legend of "carp jumping dragon gate" is also here!
The terrain here was abnormally difficult and dangerous, but it was much better than the area around the Tongguan. Historically, the army had been unable to breach the Tongguan, so they had decided to advance from here! Li Yuan had entered the Guan Shan from here, while the Ming dynasty's Li Zicheng had left the Guan Shan and entered Beijing!
"Chinese people are lowly people! living daughter was a bit careless, she was tricked by the Han people, and that was why she failed! This time, we will lead a hundred thousand troops into the Guan Shan. As long as we are careful, we can definitely exterminate the Han people! " Wanyan Loushi gnashed his teeth as he spoke.
His words were filled with disdain towards the Chinese. As a Chinese, the carefree person beside him didn't have any change in his expression after hearing his words! The carefree son did not care about the fate of the Han people. He just wanted revenge. He wanted to kill all the descendants of Zhao Song!
"Although the Han people are all lowly people, but this little Emperor of the Han people can still be considered to have some talent! He was young, yet he was able to defeat Zhe Keqiu and defeat the living daughter. We can't let him continue to develop any further. We have to eliminate him as soon as possible! However, there are still a few experts beside the little emperor, so these experts will be handed over to Daoist Xiao Zi! " Wanyan Zongwang said.
"Don't worry Second Crown Prince, this time I will definitely kill Emperor Xuanwu! I didn't kill him three years ago. I heard that a Daoist saved him! This Taoist is also a wulin master, Lin Lingsu, Wu Qing might not even be able to beat him! However, my Devil Dao's assassination method is different from others. This time, I will not let him live! Hmph, first we have to eliminate this Emperor Xuanwu, then we'll go south and destroy it! "Zhao Song can no longer control this world!" The unfettered child said coldly.
"Haha, with mister's words, I am relieved! Go! We will cross the Yellow River right now and go straight for the Guan Shan! " Wanyan Zongwang laughed out loud!
The Yellow River had long since become completely frozen! Nvzhen laid hay on the Yellow River, and then the true female army rode her horse across the Yellow River!
The terrain around the Dragon Gate was indeed complex. After crossing the Yellow River, there were lofty mountains and lofty ridges on the other side! But unlike the Tongguan, there were many other paths here!
"Go!" Hurry up, there's still a small barrier there, let's break through that barrier first! " Wanyan Zongwang had already arrived at the other side of the Yellow River.
Nvzhen galloped on the mountain road. There was indeed a barrier in front! However, compared to the Tongguan, this barrier was far too weak! Furthermore, it was New Year's Eve today. The Song Army s inside the checkpoint had just finished cheering, and most of them had already fallen into deep sleep! Just at this time, the Nvzhen attacked!
It was an existence that was only four meters tall, and could hardly be called a city. The garrison inside also only had two hundred soldiers! The female army quietly approached the checkpoint!
In the darkness of the night, a few patrolling Song Army s had just heard the 'whoosh' sound when their bodies were shot and fell to the ground! Then, they saw the Nvzhen taking a escalator up to the top of the small city wall.
Very quickly, the sound of fighting could be heard! The faint scent of blood wafted through the air as Bei Feng approached!
After half an hour, the shouts of battle gradually stopped!
Wanyan Zongwang's face revealed an astonished expression. After a while, a Chieftain came over to Wanyan Zongwang and said: "Second Crown Prince, all of the Chinese people were killed by us. "There's something strange …"
Wanyan Zongwang asked: "What is it?"
Chieftain hesitated for a moment, then said: "Second Crown Prince, the Chinese actually did not surrender!"
Wanyan Zongwang was stunned in place, and said: "What did you say? The most incompetent and lowly Han Chinese, none of them actually surrendered? How was this possible? It's definitely not Chinese! "
In Wanyan Zongwang's heart, the "despicable" of the Chinese was something carved into his bones! Their Nvzhen was fighting everywhere, and had fought against the Chidan and Western Xia before. Some of the people of Chidan and Western Xia also surrendered, but only a small portion of them surrendered, while the majority of the Han people would surrender! In these years, from the Central Plains to Jiangnan, there were too few Han Chinese who dared to fight against Nvzhen with their life on the line! In his heart, the Chinese had no backbone, whether it was a scholar or a warrior, none of them had any integrity! Not a single one of the more than two hundred Han people here surrendered. That was impossible! Therefore, this place definitely wasn't Chinese!
"Second Crown Prince, they are Chinese! We won't be wrong! " The Chieftain said.
"I think so too! Our army is more than ten times theirs, and under their desperate resistance, we actually lost dozens of our brothers! They must be the most elite among the Han people, and should not be underestimated! " Chieftain said.
"No matter what, we have already passed this small checkpoint! "Go ahead immediately, we will take down Korea tonight!" Wanyan Zongwang shouted coldly.
Han City was only about 30 li away from the banks of the Yellow River. If it was a flat land, Nvzhen would be able to reach it in half an hour! It was just that there were mountain roads everywhere, and snow was falling from the sky, making the road slippery. Thus, Nvzhen's speed slowed down by a lot.
After almost four hours, the true female army finally appeared at the outskirts of the city.
When their hundred thousand strong army had arrived at the same time, they had already prepared a simple ladder to the clouds! The next moment, over a hundred thousand soldiers began attacking the city!
However, the garrison troops of Han City had noticed something. It was impossible for them not to hear the galloping horses!
There were a total of more than two thousand guards in Han City, and they also belonged to Yue Fei's Imperial Guard! At this moment, the two thousand garrison soldiers had already donned their clothes in a hurry. They picked up their weapons and stepped onto the city wall!
"Quick!" Immediately call out the people of the city! Not good! The Nvzhen attacked the Guan Shan! There are so many soldiers and horses down there, I'm afraid it's close to a hundred thousand men! " The face of the leading Academy Officer suddenly changed!
Also, send someone out of the city immediately to Tongguan to report to him and have him lead the army here! If General Yue does not arrive in time, the entire Guan Shan will be in danger! " A vice commander-in-chief by his side hurriedly called out.
Immediately, someone went to inform the citizens of the city to stand up and defend against the Nvzhen! Another soldier climbed down the wall using a rope and rushed towards the direction of the Tongguan.
The cruel siege began! Hundreds of ladders were set up. These ladders were all on the eastern city wall! Countless Nvzhen moved forward, one after the other!
The Song Army above continued to retaliate. First, waves after waves of arrows were shot down, but some people from the Nvzhen had already raised their shields, raised them above their heads and charged forward!
The log on it rolled down. Unfortunately, there was a limit to the number of logs on it! Han City was a small city with only 2000 soldiers guarding it. Naturally, the defensive resources inside were also very limited!
"Soldiers, it's time to die for our country!" Academy Officer looked at the scene below and suddenly said loudly.
They only had around 2000 people and 100,000 people below them. Moreover, they didn't have many defensive weapons in their hands. In this situation, it was impossible for them to block the enemy!
A Jin Army climbed up, and waved her sword in front of him! He was at the peak of the Postliminary Realm and the Jin Army had never cultivated internal energy before. Naturally, she was not her match! He cut off one of Jin Army's arms, causing him to scream in pain as she retreated. Behind him, more Jin Army followed suit.
Academy Officer was stunned, he could not believe, Jin Army actually retreated! In his memory, the Jin Army was abnormally brave and never retreated! Even if they were injured, they would not retreat. Even if they knew that they had to die, if they could kill the enemy, they would still rush forward! If not for this kind of spirit of sacrifice, how could Nvzhen rely on just a few hundred thousand people, and not even two hundred thousand soldiers to conquer ten thousand miles?
But now, the Jin Army actually retreated? What did this mean? This showed that the sacrificial spirit in Nvzhen had disappeared!
Gradually, the Academy Officer found that many of the Nvzhen s were like the Jin Army before, they no longer had the spirit to go forth and die one after another!
"Hahahaha, is this really Nvzhen? Their bodies were still as strong as before, and they still far surpassed the previous Song Army, but they had already changed! Although it was only a part of it, there were still many people who hadn't changed! However, the remaining people would eventually become the same! Even before they had taken down the entire world, they had already started to enjoy the prosperity, and had been corroded by the prosperity! Such a Nvzhen is nothing to worry about! " Under the encirclement of over ten Jin Army s, wounds had already appeared on their bodies, but his expression was abnormally joyous!
In history, Nvzhen did not have the power to descend due to being decayed too quickly. Instead, they were continuously defeated by Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and the others! If Zhao Gou, Qin Gui and the others had wholeheartedly fought on, it would not be impossible for them to take back the mountains and rivers! It was a pity that Zhao Gou and Qin Gui did not have such thoughts!
More and more Nvzhen rushed up, and countless of them resisted with their lives! None of the Song Army s kneeled down to surrender, none of them retreated!
There were more and more wounds on Academy Officer's body. There were wounds on his arms, stomach, and back. However, Academy Officer's expression was getting more and more excited!
"Nvzhen! Barbarian! Fight against us Chinese, you will never be a match for them! Kill! " After being shot in the abdomen, he roared and rushed forward, pouncing onto a Nvzhen's body. He finally stabbed the sword in his hand into the Nvzhen's stomach!
Following that, countless of Nvzhen s stabbed their blades and spears into the Academy Officer's back. Academy Officer screamed continuously, and only spat out blood as the light in his eyes gradually faded, but the smile still remained!
This kind of scene could be seen everywhere. Over two thousand of the Song Army s were trading their lives for each other, and none of them cared about life or death as they advanced forward! She had already killed more than ten Jin Army s in a row. The remaining Jin Army s let out a loud roar and retreated to the side, then Jin Army picked up her bow and arrows and shot forward. Dozens of arrows were nocked onto the Lieutenant's body, and the Lieutenant finally fell!
"Nvzhen, they actually don't dare to fight me to the death, this is no longer Nvzhen! It was precisely because they were not afraid of death and dared to risk their lives that this was a woman's true nature! What are they now? " The Lieutenant had this thought before he died!
When the Nvzhen fell and "enjoyed the victory", they rushed down from the city walls, ready to rush into the homes of the common people, and then started to burn, kill, and loot! However, in the city, they were once again obstructed!
Almost all the citizens were engaged in street fighting with them! The citizens did not have any weapons, but held onto kitchen knives and wooden sticks. They relied on these things to fight the Nvzhen!
In an alleyway, ten or so Nvzhen s met dozens of citizens. However, whether it was physical strength, martial arts, or weapons, all of these people were not as good as Nvzhen. A sixty year old civilian had already been slashed into the ground, but he still tightly held onto Nvzhen's legs. Nvzhen fell to the ground, while he crawled over, and bit towards Nvzhen's neck!
In another alley, dozens of citizens had already killed more than ten Nvzhen s, but even more had rushed in. Only a few girls were still alive. Nvzhen laughed and pounced towards those girls! The girls looked at the Nvzhen and suddenly opened their mouth. They stuck out their tongue and fiercely bit down! This tragic scene gave Nvzhen a fright. Nvzhen did not dare to insult these women's corpses, and she finally left!
"The Nvzhen has already entered the city. This Han City belongs to us Chinese, we cannot let them occupy it!" Burn, burn the entire Han City! " In a corner of the city, a person dressed as a gentry was saying!
In many parts of the city, many citizens had the same thought! They would rather burn this city down than let the Nvzhen obtain it!
The snow gradually grew heavier. However, countless red lights could be seen in the city as well. A huge fire was slowly set ablaze!
"This is bad!" "Quick, retreat!" Wanyan Zongwang was already standing on top of the city walls, and upon hearing that the situation inside the city was not looking good, he was shocked. Just as he was about to enter the city himself, he saw flames everywhere!
More and more Nvzhen felt that something was amiss, and they ran out of the city gate in fright!
When the sky lit up, Nvzhen had already completely left the city! At the moment, Nvzhen could already see the slogans written on the walls.
Wanyan Zongwang did not know about the situation in the city and only frowned. However, Wanyan Loushi felt a chill in his heart!
The unfettered child also stood there in a daze, finding it hard to believe!
"What just happened? A few Chieftain s said that the situation in the city is not right, all of you tell us! " Wanyan Zongwang said.
Wanyan Loushi nodded, and started to talk, followed by a few centurion s and Chieftain s! After hearing that, Wanyan Zongwang was also stunned!
"You mean no one in the city surrendered? All the Chinese are resisting? " Wanyan Zongwang said.
"That's right!" Regardless of whether it was men, women, elderly, or children, they were all resisting. Even a four or five-year-old child was resisting! In the end, the Han would rather burn this city than let us have it! This … It's really too scary! " Wanyan Loushi said.
"Everyone! Everyone! Is this really the world's most lowly Han? " Wanyan Zongwang also felt a chill in his heart!
He had already been able to count the number of casualties in the army, and the final result was unbelievable! In the short span of a night, more than five thousand women from the true army of 100,000 had died. This was something he could not accept!
"Has the entire Guan Shan become like this? If that's the case, if we want to take down the Guan Shan and enslave the Han people, it would be impossible! " Wanyan Zongwang said.
"This is all because of the Emperor Xuanwu. We must find him and kill him! This people were the most lowly people. No one could let them become noble! "We must let it continue to be lowly, so that its citizens would not dare to resist, and so that its people would only dare to surrender to power and become slaves!" Wanyan Loushi gritted his teeth.
Their great army headed towards the west!
