One hundred and sixty-eighth chapter fire opened Beijing
In Kaijing Imperial City, Wang Yu, the 23rd Goryeo, was listening to the reports from the people below.
As a puppet, he was the king who had been in power for a long time in the era of Goryeo warriors. According to historical records, he was one of the few kings who had started and ended well from the beginning to the end of the year 1213.
This also has to do with his cowardly personality and being left to Cui’s mercy!
He has been in power for 9 years now, and has gone through the transition from the power of the Choi father and son, and has been "harmonious" with Choi Yi now.
But the so-called PG determines the head! When a puppet is a puppet, there is no one who doesn’t want to be free. Even if Wang Yu cherishes his life, he still wants to get rid of Cui’s family. Before, he felt that the current situation was limited, so he could only obey his fate.
Now that he heard the news that the Mongolian soldiers were at the city, he had the idea of breaking free from the cage. He sent his confidants to inquire about the news so that he could tell himself the movements of the Mongolians as soon as possible.
Just as he was waiting nervously, a creaking sound was made, and the tightly closed door was pushed open a crack. A white-looking head immediately poked in.
"Come in, I am the only one." Wang Yu said, knowing that his confidant was back.
Then he saw a low-stature eunuch quickly entered the hall and closed the door lightly.
"Report to the king, something is wrong. The general's army is defeated, and the Mongols have already entered the city." After kneeling down, the eunuch told Wang Lu a bolt from the blue.
Although he really wanted to take advantage of the Mongolians, it was because his life was safe. Now that the Mongolians have entered the city, the Kaijing will probably be out of order. He has become a prisoner, and whether he can survive depends on the Mongolians.
He will be cautious all his life and be a puppet king. Now he is very likely to be the infamous king of a country that will make him sad and angry.
"Then how did Cui Yi act? How could he lose if he said it was defeated?" Wang Xun called him by his name when he was angry.
"It is said that General Cui Yugong surrendered the Mongols and fought with General Cui's troops under the city. Later, the Mongols used fire-breathing fire tubes, and their weapons were extremely powerful. When they erupted, they were in a state of collapse. Now the official army dared not fight with the Mongols, and the city was already in chaos."
"What to do? What to do?" Wang Feng was anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Although the Mongols had not yet reached the imperial city, he had already seen the fire outside the palace outside the palace.
But sitting and waiting for death is not a solution. He was quick to learn and asked the eunuch to take off his clothes so that he could change it.
When he was about to escape, the palace city where he had lived for decades was already like the end of the world. There were eunuchs and palace maids carrying bags and fleeing everywhere, and guards plundering gold and silver jewelry everywhere. In the face of disaster, the palace city's guards themselves started to mess up.
At this time, a large group of soldiers rushed towards the palace where he lived.
Because Cui Yi was very concerned about him on weekdays, there were the most guards around his bedroom. Fortunately, these people were private soldiers from Cui's family and did not follow the criminals to cause trouble. But at this moment, many guards went to deal with the eunuchs and guards who were causing trouble, which made the troops around his bedroom extremely empty.
Seeing that there were soldiers who were unaware of their purpose, Wang Yu immediately closed the door. Then he turned to the back hall and secretly opened the side door. Seeing that the guards who were monitoring him were missing, he immediately prepared to run. But the shouts of killing behind him rang out in an instant, and it didn't last long, and a large group of soldiers rushed in.
He didn't dare to stay for too long, so he hurriedly hid in the side hall beside him.
Outside the palace city, fires began to ignite everywhere in Kaijing. This was not what Adamhan ordered the soldiers under him to release, but the Goryeo people themselves began to collapse after learning that the Mongols entered the city.
Although compared with Shangjing Prefecture, Kaijing City is only half the size. However, there are many private houses and the layout is extremely compact. The building materials used are mostly made of wood. When a fire occurs, it will immediately start to burn. Not to mention that the current year is unfavorable, and a strong wind is blowing.
So after seeing the fire getting worse and more raging and in a continuous and continuous manner, A Danghan had to order the army to temporarily stop the attack and urgently open up a fire barrier. A large number of houses were pushed down. If the people hiding inside did not come out in time, they would be crushed to death in the ruins.
After seeing the Mongols' ruthless blood, the people inside didn't even dare to cry. They looked like they were sorrow that they were heartbroken, and they looked at their house being pushed down with red eyes.
But soon, they will thank the Mongolians for their actions. Because compared to being burned to death, it is really a happy thing to be able to live and continue to see tomorrow's sun.
It was not until the afternoon of that day that the fire in Kaijing showed signs of weakening. Although the fire barrier was made in advance, because the temperature was too high, A Danghan still had to order the soldiers below to withdraw first. The people were also used by A Danghan and temporarily became laborers, and they were indiscriminately transporting food and all property from the unburned area.
And one after another, a large number of people fled from the unfinished houses to the fire zone and received temporary shelter.
Cui Yugong was extremely heartbroken as he watched the familiar Kaijing city slowly burned to white ground by the fire. Even though the fire was not released by the Mongols, it was ultimately caused by the Mongols.
Fortunately, the Mongolians were not as cold-blooded and ruthless as he imagined!
After creating a fire barrier, A Danghan ordered the soldiers below to participate in the firefighting. When life and death were threatened, even the Kaijing people who regarded the Mongols as their enemy were still grateful after being rescued from the fire by the Mongols.
It was not until the fire completely surrounded the entire fire barrier that all the soldiers of the East Mongolian retreated out of the city. At the first time, the surviving Kaijing people were arranged to use all the tools they had stolen to set up camp.
Adamhan also transferred out two thousand tents from the army to establish a temporary shelter for these people.
Of course, this is not A Danghan is very kind-hearted!
Mainly in his impression, his king Ulutus always likes to say that population is a very important resource and the basis for creating wealth. If you kill it with a simple knife, it is a waste of resources and money.
Although he didn't know much about the words "resources", he knew wealth and money. As long as these people were sent back to Eastern Mongolia and could earn a lot of wealth for the king, it would be worth it.
But he also regrets the fire in the capital!
This is the capital of Goryeo. I don’t know how much wealth there will be in this fire. I don’t know if this matter will be reported to the Queen and will be questioned and done in a bad way.
