1261 Where are the two damned people fleeing?

The rapidly spreading fire had also burned to the inner wall. However, a large number of cavalrymen rushing to the city gate were shot down by dense crossbow arrows. The corpses of soldiers and war horses were piled up high, but this seemed to form a barrier formed by corpses... It was a critical moment for the fire to burn, so where could there be any time to clear the obstacles?

So a large number of Khitan soldiers panicked and abandoned their war horses as if they were crazy, and squeezed up the city tower. During this period, people were squeezed down from time to time, and they fell down in awe of shouting and scolding.

However, even the soldiers who climbed the city wall still felt a burning heat wave. The long ladder they used to climb and kill the city was naturally overturned by all the Wei soldiers who suddenly came... They climbed to a high place, but they had already been removed from the ladder. If they jumped directly from the city wall that was more than one meter away, even if they could save their lives, they would inevitably break their arms or their legs.

Some Khitan soldiers began to search for ropes in a hurry, intending to tie one end to the wall, tie the other end to themselves and then slowly slide down the wall... However, the skyrocketing fire did not wait for anyone, and was trapped on the top of the city, and in the end they were just waiting to die.

So some people would rather fall directly and get injured, or even get a few shots from the Wei army, than feel the heat wave getting hotter and hotter, until they are tortured to death and fumigate them to death... Driven by extreme fear, the Khitan soldiers jumped down from the city in a panic, and figures fell and slapped on the ground. At worst, they didn't understand, their heads fell on the ground, and they died on the spot; at least they were broken, they fell on the ground, and they fell to the ground, wailing, but where could they escape?

As the temperature of burning heat continued to increase, the Khitan soldiers and horses still trapped in the city were like they were boiled, and they had already become a mess...

Wang Yu, who was a little later than Shi Luyin, the Khitan general, was eager to escape from Guiyi City as soon as possible. Along the way, he saw many soldiers being crushed under the collapsed houses, and their iron armor was burned red. Although it had turned into a ball of coke, the half of the body that was poked out had an extremely distorted shape.

When Wang Yu smelled the scorched and disgusting smell again, he was even more frightened. Looking around, there were many corpses lying in the thick black smoke, and more and more soldiers were buried in the sea of ​​fire... What is the difference between this and purgatory?

However, due to the fierce fire and choking poisonous smoke around, Wang Yu could not return along the original road, so he urged the horse to detour, and had already separated from the remaining troops led by Shi Luyin... and urged the horse to gallop for a distance, and he actually started to fight among the neighborhoods surrounded by collapsed houses...

Just as his heart was burning, right beside Wang Yu, there was a bucket of turbulent oil on his side as the height continued to increase, and it was stained with the dispersed sparks, and it "boom!" formed a bursting effect. In an instant, Wang Yu's eyes were filled with dazzling flames, almost blinding his eyes... The flames rising into the sky affected Wang Yu and the mounts riding under his crotch. A fierce airflow rushed him and his people and horses into a still burning house!

The horse was terrified and his huge body was about to hit him hard. Another series of heavy objects hit him suddenly. The house, which was already shaking, collapsed in an instant. Wang Yu almost fainted when he was hit, and his lower body was pressed tightly by the horse. He was unable to break free, and he watched the beams wrapped in fire collapse and pressed down heavily, causing the flames to spread quickly on him...

"Ah! Help!!! Come and save me!!!"

He felt the pain of burning his body with a fierce fire. This minister, who was adopted by Yelu Abaoji and had a relatively higher status among the Han people in the Khitan Kingdom, also let out a scream like a pig. However, he struggled in vain, but several ribs had been broken by the falling beams and wood. The gravel tiles fell and all of them were pressed on his body. Wang Yu tried his best to get up and escape!

My ambition...will it end here...

Wang Yu thought in despair, and he recalled that when Liang and Jin fought for hegemony, the Yiwu army vassal states faced a large siege of Zhu Wen. He fled to Hedong, and used all means to cater to the superiors, to win the trust of the former ruler of the Later Tang Dynasty, Li Keyong, and married his daughter to him. However, greed was not enough to swallow the elephant, Wang Yu was unwilling to surrender to the Li family in Hedong in the future. He also thought that the powerful neighbor of the Later Tang Dynasty was there, so he had to surrender. He became interested in attracting strong support, and then he curled up his goal and positioned the growing Khitan king Yelu Abaoji.

Back then, he tried his best to persuade his father, Wang Chu, to directly lead the Khitan into the pass, and recommended himself to rush to the north as an envoy. In fact, in the Khitan, in addition to Han Yanhui and other Han ministers, there were also other royal nobles who were still afraid of the power of the Li family in Hedong and opposed to starting a war with him. For example, the queen Shuluping once said, "I have the wealth of sheep and horses in the West Tower, and I am so happy that I can't find it. Why bother to go far away to take advantage of danger and gain profits! I heard that the King of Jin used troops and was invincible. If I escaped from danger, how could I regret it?"...

However, Wang Yu tried his best to persuade Yelu Abaoji to invade the south, so he urged "the beautiful women in the city are like clouds, gold and silk are like mountains, and the emperor and kings go quickly, so that they are all their own things, otherwise they will be owned by the King of Jin." He also deliberately won the favor of the Khitan king, and then became Abaoji's godson... So for him, not only did he say it lightly, he had already let down Li Keyong's trust in accepting him as his son-in-law. The people of the Central Plains and the mountains and rivers of the Han family, for him, were just capital to attract foreign tribes to come and achieve his own goals.

But now, the matter ended up like this... Wang Yu wailed heart-wrenchingly, but his voice gradually weakened. In his life, he was good at greeting the favor of those who were superior, but he was actually selfish and had no national justice. However, in such a desperate situation, the methods Wang Yu used were useless.

It was faintly that Wang Yu could still hear the sound of the Khitan Han army crying and running around. He opened his mouth in vain and wailed weakly for help, but now everyone can't take care of themselves, and it seems that no one will waste time to come and rescue him... Wang Yu felt the unbearable pain personally, and his body began to show extremely twisted movements, and slowly solidified.

At this point, Wang Yu could no longer follow his original course of destiny. After Yelu Abaoji died of illness, he still expressed his loyalty and cried and wailed to serve the Khitan royal family for life. Therefore, Empress Shu Luping praised "One of the Han people, Wang Lang is the most loyal and filial", so he stayed in the Khitan until his death... However, he was trapped in the fire and could not escape at all, and was destined to end up being burned alive!

...At about the same time, Shi Luyin, the Khitan general who was fumigated and still had embers burning on his body, led the remaining Khitan cavalry who had already scared out of fear, rushed around the city to avoid the spreading smoke and fire. When he finally ran to a city gate, he heard the wailing screams of Khitan cavalry in front of him.

Shi Luyin, whose face was covered with ash stains, barely endured the pain and opened his blood-stained eyes and looked over with great difficulty. However, what happened in front of him made his face pale at the time!
