Chapter 490 The embattled inner city of the Central Capital

Under Su Yonglin's order, the Restoration Army overwhelmed the entire army, all the weapons and firearms poured in, the overwhelming explosion of firearms and the smeared faces of the boulders made the defenders in the city who were not ready to resist dizzy.

The golden soldiers on the city were bombed with blood and blood, and the smashed flesh was blurred. Few of the golden soldiers could be organized to use the city's defense equipment to launch a counterattack against the Restoration Army.

And at this moment, the number of garrison soldiers on the tower is less than one-third of the rated number.

The previous wave of low morale made a large number of Jin soldiers lose their courage to resist, and they would rather go home and wait to die than continue to resist. They deliberately hid, thinking of luck, maybe they could survive until the end of the war. .

There are even Jurchen families who have abandoned Jurchen costumes and put on Han Chinese costumes. The whole family pretends to be Han Chinese and waits to surrender.

When the Restoration Army crossed many obstacles and began to attack the city with ants attached to the city, Pusanhutu, who arrived at the front line in person, finally learned about the fact that a large number of soldiers had left the city defense privately.

They were busy fighting with each other, discussing whether to surrender or not, and they didn't care about the city defense. When they finally noticed it, it was too late.

The red-eyed Liberation Army soldiers rushed to the city wall to fight with the golden soldiers. They were well-trained and formed a fighting group, and the unorganized golden soldiers were killed and fled.

The more the Restoration Army advanced, the more the Jinbing collapsed. A small number of fine army officers led a small number of soldiers to resist, but they were unable to turn the tide.

The first to be conquered by the Restoration Army was the Changyi Gate in the east of the city.

The Zhangyimen defenders were the least in number and the most unbearable for a long battle. They were violently attacked by the Beiwei Army and fell. The second line of defense composed of bowmen failed to stop the attack of the Restoration Army, and the entire army was quickly annihilated. Yimen was conquered.

The capture of Zhangyi Gate meant that the outer city of the capital city of Jinzhong was basically broken, and the news quickly reached Su Yonglin's ears.

Su Yonglin was a little surprised at first. He didn't expect to break through a city gate so quickly. He thought it would take several days of hard fighting.

It seems that the previous offensive strategy has worked.

He was very happy, and immediately ordered Su Yong to lead a cavalry of the Huben Battalion to rush into the city to seize important places and open up living space.

Su Yong took the order and immediately led his troops to the Zhangyi Gate. The Jin Army defenders near the Zhangyi Gate were quickly wiped out, either killed or captured, and a few surrendered.

The news that the Zhangyi Gate was breached quickly spread to the imperial city, and the civil and military officials and the golden royal family in the imperial city were terrified.

They were still discussing just now. They felt that the Restoration Army's offensive was too fierce. Should they reduce some requirements in exchange for their approval. As a result, the Restoration Army broke through the Zhangyi Gate and advanced to the inner city before they could negotiate.

It’s over.

Many officials were so frightened that they shivered and fell to the ground, ready to die.

Some officials were timid and simply cried bitterly, losing the face they cared about most in the past.

The Queen Mother Tu Shan and Wanyan Guangying, who had just ascended the throne, hugged each other and cried. Tu Shanzhen was paralyzed on the ground without saying a word, with a strong fear on her face.

Pusanhutu looked at the mess around him, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet and rushed out, took out the mobilization tiger talisman and forced the inner palace guards to dispatch the personal soldiers, closed the gate of the imperial city, and completely blocked the imperial city. It is guaranteed that the imperial city will not be taken away by the Restoration Army.

Now that the imperial city has been breached, everyone is just a piece of fish on the chopping board and killed!
With the advance of the Restoration Army and the spread of news that the Changyi Gate had been breached, the defenders of Zhongdu were shaken even more violently.

Soon, Fengyi Gate, Jingfeng Gate, and Yangchun Gate were broken one after another, and the Restoration Army rushed into the city.

Ordinary people in the city were terrified, fleeing, hiding, and even hanging themselves in a well, trying to avoid the killings brought by the Liberation Army after entering the city.

However, the Restoration Army did not attack ordinary residential areas.

Before the siege, Su Yonglin ordered the entire army to restrain military discipline.

It is only allowed to attack the city, only to kill the golden soldiers with weapons, not to kill the people or livestock, not to set fire to ordinary houses, and not to loot the property of anyone in the city.

Instructors at all levels of the army will issue this order to every soldier in the whole army. Anyone who violates this order will definitely be executed, and the officers and instructors directly under the command will be dismissed.

This large-scale siege battle not only tested the offensive ability of the Restoration Army, but also tested the organization and restraint of the Restoration Army. For Su Yonglin, it was more like a big test.

Although he did not expect that the battle was less than two hours away, he had already broken through the outer city of Central Capital, and the army had successfully turned into street fighting.

In addition to the outer city, there is also an imperial city in Zhongdu City, which is the real core part of Zhongdu City.

At this moment, the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, the dignitaries, civil and military officials, and relatives and family members should all be in the inner city, and may even have gathered in the imperial city. It is estimated that there are only some low-level bureaucrats in the outer city.

So the next day, after all the key points in the outer city of Zhongdu were occupied and the resistance of the golden soldiers in the city was completely terminated, he entered the city in person and came to Xuanyangmen, the inner city that was surrounded by the army, and looked up at Biwai. The city's taller inner city walls.

And the terrified defending soldiers on the city walls.

All the outer cities fell, and the resistance ended overnight. Tens of thousands of defenders were either dead or surrendered. A large number of middle and low-level officials were being lined up for identification, and many female real mouths were also being lined up for identification. been let go.

The Central Capital City was broken, and there was only a lonely inner city left. In the inner city, there were only a few neighborhoods and an imperial city that ordinary people were not allowed to enter. In fact, there was no need to continue to defend it.

Even if Su Yonglin doesn't do anything, if he continues to besiege him, he will be able to consume all the people in the imperial city to death. He is so desperate.

However, the gates of the inner city were still tightly closed, and the defenders on the city seemed to be planning to resist stubbornly.

Su Yonglin brought in a large number of trebuchets and crossbows, and lined up the rushing vehicles dedicated to siege. The siege army formed an army formation, eyeing the tigers. Just waiting for Su Yonglin's order, they would attack the Jin Dynasty. The city launched a final attack.

With this posture and the high morale of the Restoration Army, no one would doubt that they would not be able to take down an inner city wall.

The Restoration Army will conquer every city they hold until they are all conquered.

There will be no more doubts now.

Probably seeing through this, the terrified Ginting sent a drop-off table from the city in time, requesting a temporary truce.

Pusan ​​Hutu is a hero.

When the civil and military officials were terrified, Pusan ​​Hutu called up the small army responsible for guarding the inner city, and asked them to act quickly, closing all the city gates and closing the inner city, so that no one could enter, and no one could enter. can not go out.

Then, after a while, the inner city was surrounded by the Restoration Army, and the water was blocked.

Even so, such foresight only guarantees that the inner city will not be taken away in one wave like the outer city, but the huge outer city is gone, and the inner city is surrounded by water, and it is also taking jujube pills.

Pusanhutu knew this ending, so he knelt in front of the Queen Mother Tudan and Wanyan Guangying, crying and making his request.

"The army of thieves is uncontrollable. This is the mistake of the ministers and others. After this incident, the queen mother and her majesty want to kill or slash, and the minister has nothing to say. Watch, I will do my best to make the last fight in the inner city, so that the thief Su will not hurt the Queen Mother and Her Majesty!"

Wanyan Guangying was already frightened, and the Empress Dowager Tudan was also frightened. At this moment, they had nothing to rely on, so they could only nod their heads and leave everything to the servant who could keep calm.

So Pusan ​​Hutu sent people out of the city to present the table to Su Yonglin, hoping to negotiate with Su Yonglin——

This time, it was sincere, and on the premise that Jin Guo surrendered to Su Yonglin, he proposed to surrender.

And many, many surrender clauses have been cut, and there is only one core condition, which is to maintain the dignity and safety of the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, and allow them to return to Liaodong safely and completely.

They finally realized that they couldn't even protect themselves with the strength in their hands. As long as Su Yonglin was willing, the inner city was just a layer of window paper, and it would be broken with a poke.
