Water Margin Survival

Chapter 559 Beheading

Although Yang Zhi and his gang cleaned up the battlefield, there were still a small number of Koreans who escaped unharmed, became fish of leakage, and fled back to the capital. ~~ Immediately, people in the capital panicked, and an atmosphere of panic quickly formed. Nobles were as noble as princes and ministers, as cheap as peddlers, and everyone was in danger. Even the king of Korea, Wang Yu, couldn't sit still in the palace.

In Kaijing City at night, the lights are like daylight.But outside the towering city wall, it was dark and misty, and there was no life to be found.Standing on the city wall, facing such a situation, Wang Yu sighed again and again, lamenting that good fortune made people fool, and called the army of the Song Dynasty, who was provoking the teacher to ask the crime, to suppress the border.

Somewhat ironically, for some reason, he recalled the scene when the Goryeo army crossed the sea to threaten the Tamra country, and he felt overwhelmed and regretful.

"Your Majesty! Lord Han has arrived for Pingzhang!" A reminder from left and right brought him back to reality, Wang Yu sighed, turned to look at the steps of the tower, and saw a middle-aged man in a purple robe and a gold belt with ball inscriptions. Year officials, quickly stepped forward to salute.

"Anren, tell me, is there really retribution in the way of heaven?" Wrinkles that did not match his age appeared on the forehead of the less than 40-year-old Korean king, making Han Anren under the torch feel personally that his own king The pallor of speech.

"Your Majesty will protect our country's safety, honor and disgrace, and you must not go to dangerous places. If you have anything to say, please return to the palace to speak again!" Han Anren persuaded.

"I just couldn't sit still in the palace, so I came here to breathe! Anren, [-] elite soldiers, were annihilated in the first battle. This is the punishment of God!" Wang Yu showed an extremely distressed expression on his face, looking Han Anren's expression trembled.

"Victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists, and has nothing to do with destiny! Your Majesty is worrying too much!" Han Anren persuaded again.

"It's not God's punishment. Why did it happen to my army when the world collapsed? But the people of Song Dynasty were safe and sound?" Wang Yu shook his head, looking very depressed.In fact, it is not to blame that the information reported by the rout soldiers is wrong, it is actually the power of hundreds of thousands of catties of explosives, except for Wang Lun.Even the person who handled it, Ling Zhen, didn't know how powerful it was beforehand, let alone this person who lived in Sanhan?Even if Zhao Guan's family is here, I'm afraid there will not be much difference in reaction from this colleague.

"Earth cracks are rare, but they have happened before. It's nothing more than changes in the wind and clouds, and visions of heaven and earth. Your Majesty, don't worry about it!"

At this time, Wang Yu would not listen to any suggestions, and Han Anren only spoke to comfort him.When Wang Yu recovered a bit, he heard Han Anren remonstrate: "But I got the news from the soldiers who escaped from the Eight Guards. This group of Song people is very different from the legends. Not to mention brave and good at fighting, let alone fear of death. Said... even if we didn't encounter this earth crack, I'm afraid it would be difficult for our army to win! My minister suggests that it is better for the king to stay away from Xijing and Pyongyang for now!"

"Bold Han Anren, persuade the Lord to escape before the battle, what a peaceful thing to be loyal to the country!" At this moment, a voice sounded from behind, and Han Anren didn't have to turn his head.I knew it was the old enemy.It seems that the king did not call himself alone.

The strange thing is that this person has not yet greeted Wang Yu, but Wang Yu turned around first.Shouted "Master!"

King Fan and his left and right saw the strangeness, and rushed to greet this man instead, only Han Anren sighed in his heart, and stood aside indifferently.Although this person has a great background.He is the father of Li Shi, Queen of Shunde, the ruler of the current dynasty, and their Li family in Renzhou has been married to the royal family since the Wenzong period, and has gone through seven generations for more than [-] years.The power is overwhelming, but Han Anren just doesn't buy Li Ziqian's account, because as an official from the place where he came from, he knows that he can have what he is today, and it is all thanks to this person, because the king needs someone capable in the court. Check and balance the opponent's chess piece, and this chess piece is himself.

In front of everyone, Li Ziqian still showed his son-in-law a lot of face, he stepped forward and saluted solemnly, and then said: "Your Majesty, Han Anren was cowardly before fighting, he will not be pardoned!"

Li Ziqian was respectful on the outside, but aggressive on the inside, which made Wang Yu a little displeased. However, since the time of Taejo, Goryeo had a political system in which the royal family and the nobles divided the country, and he was born in such a big environment. King, how can you have the power to change?

"The enemy is in front of you, don't worry too much, An Ren is also a public heart!"

The son-in-law's words were ridiculous to the father-in-law's ears. How could Li Ziqian not understand Han Anren's intentions?Han Anren's move was nothing more than a trick because he was deeply entrenched in Kaijing and wanted to persuade his son-in-law to escape his control and start anew.

"Master Han, please tell me what you are at ease! A hundred years ago, the Liao Kingdom broke through Kaijing. At that time, King Xianzong abandoned the city and left. In the end, Kaijing was reduced to ruins. My Koryo treasury has accumulated more than a hundred years. The Liao army looted the rest of the part and hundreds of thousands of food and grass were burned. Later, Xianzong returned to the old place and exhausted all the power of the whole country to send 30 people to rebuild this building. Chengchi, you are now bewitching the king to abandon the city, do you want to make Kaijing suffer another catastrophe?"

Li Ziqian is indeed a powerful person, and the former kings of Goryeo have no dignity in his mouth.However, Li Ziqian did not argue with his son-in-law at this time, but pointed the finger at Han Anren, who was born in a local power. If it weren't for the dog raised by his son-in-law, his life would definitely be more comfortable than it is now.

"Don't go? Put the king's body in danger, and what will happen in the future, can you bear it, Lord Shang Shuling?" Han Anren confronted each other.At this time, the scene where the loyal ministers persuaded them to escape and the powerful ministers took charge of them seemed ridiculous, but sometimes, the truth is such that the world is turned upside down, and good fortune tricks people.

"The old man is a minister, but I am still the head of the country, and my daughter is in the city. Why don't I think about her safety! But this official is really upholding a public heart, unlike you and other people who are afraid of death! The invading enemy is only 2 people, you have to abandon the city and flee. If you were born a hundred years earlier, when the Liao people came, you might lose all the land of Sanhan! Even if I have ten capitals in Koryo, Not enough for a courtier like you to abandon!"

Li Ziqian sneered and looked at Han Anren with provocative eyes. Wang Yan couldn't get into the conversation for a while, but Li Ziqian said again: "There are still 3 powerful soldiers in the city, and there are countless brave and military servants in the city. It seems that there are [-] to [-] people, not to mention the strong people in the city, and the defenders from all over the country will rush to help after receiving the news. Tell me! How can this city not be defended?"

Li Ziqian slapped the thick city wall built ten years ago, causing dust to fly. Li Ziqian didn't care, but said loudly: "With this majestic city guarded, Pingzhang, who has always regarded himself as a loyal and loyal country Thing. Want to escape! It really echoes an old saying in our country, the wind knows the strength of the grass, and the toughness knows the loyal ministers!"

Facing the overbearing Li Ziqian, Han Anren was aggrieved for a moment. Fleeing after hearing the news has always been a symbol of soft bones. Although he was really not afraid of death at this time, the yellow mud fell into his crotch. I'm sorry.

Li Ziqian laughed again and again.Ignore him, straighten my chest, and say to my son-in-law: "This is the foundation of my Koryo country. If you flee without fighting, it will definitely arouse heated discussions among the people in the world. In the future, you will destroy this group of invading enemies. There is also a suspicion that the universe is unstable. Even if these sycophants are afraid of the enemy and want to leave, the old officials will stay and defend the city!"

Han Anren couldn't help feeling turbulent in his chest when he heard the words, old thief Li Ziqian.What kind of loyal minister do you pretend to be in front of a real person!It's nothing more than the fact that your whole family's wealth and honor are tied to this city, but you just hold on to the king and don't let go. You are really a national thief!

"Your Majesty, Shang Shuling is so loyal and courageous. Please order him to guard the city, and my servant is willing to protect the king and go to Xijing, gather troops, and rush to help Kaijing!" Han Anren gritted his teeth.

"This..." Wang Yu was suddenly pushed onto the fire by his closest ministers.I was very surprised for a moment.

At this time, Li Ziqian was extremely calm, and he didn't say anything to urge the son-in-law to make a decision.It turned out that he still had a trump card in his hand, which was his ten-year-old nephew who had been raised by his family since he was a child.This child is the flesh and blood of Wang Yu and his daughter. As long as Wang Yu really dares to abandon the city and come here, don't blame yourself as a father-in-law for being unkind.When the matter subsides, it is all right to give him a hat and belt of the Supreme King.

"Licheng has been lost, and the ancestors of the past dynasties are all in the capital of the country. Why does the lonely king still abandon it and ask the grand master to go to the country alone?"

There was a trace of trill in Wang Yu's voice, and he couldn't help glaring at his close vassal.The wealth accumulated in Goryeo in the past hundred years is gathered in this capital city, which is enough to make anyone jealous. If he leaves by himself, how much can he bring under the threat of the opponent's cavalry?My father-in-law is not a vegetarian character. If he is lucky enough to defeat the enemy, and at the same time gain his reputation, he can also control this shocking wealth. As a runaway king, he will be fine in front of him in the future.

"Send envoys to the sea from other ports, bring more gold and silver, and go to Daliao to invite troops! Since the Song Dynasty dared to attack me without authorization, let the Lord of Liao see what he will do!" A big killer: sue!Of course, the cost of inviting the Liao Kingdom to send troops is bound to be high, but Wang Yu, who is impatient, has completely ignored the cost at this time.

It is rumored that the origin of this armed force equipped with tens of thousands of god-armed bows has been recognized by the Goryeo government as the Song Dynasty's full support and wanting to uphold justice for the Tamra Kingdom. The mouse was meddling in his own business, and scolded Zhao Guanjia who was also shot while lying down.

"Daliao is fighting fiercely with the Jurchens, do they have the spare power to save our country?" Han Anren asked suspiciously.

"As long as they coerce Song and withdraw their troops, I, Goryeo, would like to attack the Jurchens with Daliao and attack the hinterland of the barbarians!" Wang Yu said angrily, "Daliao asked me to send troops several times, isn't it for this result, and now the lonely king has agreed He is!"

"Exactly, Liao is like a brother in the Song Dynasty. The elder brother has spoken, dare the younger brother not listen? It is true that Daliao is being entangled by the Jurchens, but the tiger and wolf cavalry stationed in Yanyun are enough to scare the Song State for a while!" Li Ziqian Totally agree with the son-in-law's decision.

"The water in the distance can't quench the thirst of the near, the father, I can rely on you alone!" Wang Yu was not confused, he knew when to rely on whom.I saw that he was like a helpless child at this moment, looking at this old man whom he was afraid of but couldn't do without, almost pleading.He completely ignored Han Anren who was standing aside with mixed feelings.

"Your Majesty, don't worry! The servants of the old minister's family will contribute as much as they can to help defend the city. Forgive him with [-] soldiers, how can he break through my city like a copper wall? If he is really capable, he will not let Daliao suppress it for a hundred years. !” Li Ziqian was full of confidence,

"When my reinforcements arrive, I will definitely teach this group of overconfident Song soldiers a lesson, and they will not dare to meddle in their own business in the future!" (To be continued...)
