Chapter 253: The Decisive Battle (5)
Of course, Yang Youcai didn't have time to be polite to them, so he led people to start fires in various places, and the Burmese prince was quickly identified, Yang Youcai snorted: "I heard His Highness say that when Yongli Ye was in Burma, they were surrounded by people in the courtyard, and they clearly said that one out of every thirty people was killed, but in fact, there were many starving to death?" ”
A brocade guard next to him hurriedly replied: "This is indeed the case." ”
"We are a big country in the Celestial Empire, we don't care about you in general, the python killed our predecessors, we will kill his descendants, if we kill you minions, it will inevitably ruin our reputation, you will disperse by yourself!"
At this time, the royal city was already on fire, and the python naturally had more than one son, and some eunuchs and palace maids wanted to protect the Burmese prince and princess who pretended to be their father-in-law to leave, but how could they deceive the eyes of Jinyiwei in a hurry. For these people, Yang Youcai was not polite, and killed them all with a wave of his hand.
A brocade guard next to him whispered: "My lord, we died so many people at the beginning, and we can't be angry when we let them all go, let's kill a few more, and pay for the blood debt!" ”
"Look at how many of us there are, if these palace maids and eunuchs fight hard, can we stop it? How long does it take to block it? Besides, these people are the source of chaos when they go out, and when the time comes, we will be able to do things, you know a fart, learn a little. ”
The brocade guard scratched his head: "Hehe, it's still an adult who thinks thoughtfully." ”
"Don't be a sycophant, hurry up and get things done."
After confirming that the fire had begun to spread, and the people in the palace ran to death, Yang Youcai waved his hand: "Withdraw!" ”
Besides, the python rushed to the west gate, the gate of the west gate had just begun to close, and he immediately ordered to rush hard, but he didn't expect the sassal rolling stones on the top of the city to roll down one after another, blocking them at the door.
The python was also anxious, and then did not attack the city gate, but he was afraid that the chasing soldiers would arrive again, and when the time came, he would be passive, thinking of this, he shouted: "Those who rush into the city gate will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!" ”
Immediately a desperate charge began, and seventy or eighty men died, and at last they made a way out, and then began to roar and kill the city.
What Python Meng didn't expect was that the first person he saw turned out to be Ruan Qingting, and he didn't react for a while: "Lord Ruan, you?" ”
"You read that right, this city gate is guarded by me, do you see the royal city, it has begun to catch fire, python, your wife and children are all finished!"
The python gritted his teeth violently: "You eat dog things inside and out, I'm going to burn you to death!" "There is no such punishment in Myanmar as a thousand cuts, not that they are not ruthless enough, but because even if they do not meet the standards, they require a thousand cuts to kill people, they have not learned this technique, and basically dozens of knives will kill people, so this punishment is not the harshest punishment, the harshest is of course being sunburned to death. You will slowly experience the process of death, and this process can be as short as four or five days or as long as more than ten days, which is very cruel.
Ruan Qingting sneered: "From the moment you started to rebel, I have been helping you, I was originally a third-grade official of the imperial court, what are you trying to do?" Don't you hope you can live with Myanmar? Your eldest brother is a good person, but a good man can't be the king of Burma, he doesn't want to be treacherous, and he also says that because of the danger of people, it is unjust to do it, I can't help it, but I can't do it, but I will poison it, which is against the sky. As everyone knows, if he doesn't adapt to the times, Myanmar will die in his hands! ”
Speaking of this, Ruan Qingting suddenly drew his sword: "But what did I get?" My only son was sent into battle by you, and he did not die at the hands of the enemy, but at the hands of his own people, and you told me not to take revenge? My Ruan family has never been in the last place, just because they have opened up the relationship, so you tell me not to take revenge? ”
A trace of guilt flashed in the python's eyes: "As a king, you can't help yourself, so don't you ask why the ministers in the court don't help you speak?" ”
"They don't speak for me? Isn't it that I'm bent on doing Myanmar's affairs well to the detriment of their interests? They understand things you don't understand, and they have to ask me why I don't form a party for personal gain? Haha, aren't I forming a party now, where are all your literati and ministers running around? They're all good friends of mine now, so I let them go home and rest, and they went home and rested. Otherwise, you think you can take Ava City with these few hundred people? ”
The python's eyes returned to coldness: "You have betrayed this king, and your sin is unforgivable!" ”
"Lao Tzu doesn't need your forgiveness, tell you that after this battle, I will die, but you python fiercely, not only will you cut off your children and grandchildren, but you will never be the king of Burma again!"
"This king killed you!"
The two groups quickly fought together, Ruan Qingting didn't have many people after all, he just sneered at the python, and then raised his sword and slid to his neck: "Python Mengzi, I'm watching you here, being killed by others as a lost dog!" The words fell, and with a horizontal hand, the sword had already cut through the throat, and there was no chance of survival.
Python suddenly felt a little confused, maybe it was because he was not young and had no pride, maybe the words left by Ruan Qingting were too hurtful, and maybe he came into the city and didn't see anyone else, as Ruan Qingting said, those people had already gone home to save their lives.
The general walked up to the python and saw that he was a little depressed, and shouted loudly: "King, hurry up and put out the fire, it's too late." ”
The overall situation of the battlefield outside the city has been decided, since the python Meng retreated with his own people, Wen Ruzhen has no worries, although Lan Lan is an experienced general, but he can't stop the fall of Ava City to the blow of his subordinates, in their opinion, Ava City is gone, what is the point of this battle or not?
Moreover, these people are different from those generals, their homes are in the nearby villages, so some people began to flee the battlefield, intending to go home to avoid the limelight, anyway, farming will not starve to death, there is no need to fight such a hopeless battle.
So a small group of deserters completely destroyed the morale of the army, and Wen Ruzhen's side was unhurried and quickly suppressed the other party.
The lieutenant general beside Lan shouted: "General, let's retreat!" ”
Lan smiled bitterly: "Behind us is Ava City, where else can we retreat?" If the king is dead, we will be cornered. If the king is immortal, and sees us retreating, do you think he will let us go? ”
"So what are we going to do?"
"Kill yourself and live up to the king's grace!"
"But General, we can't win this battle!"
"There are some battles, knowing that you can't win, you have to fight, this is the fate of battlefield battles. Kill! Saying that, Lan Lan picked up the weapon in his hand and rushed out: "King, Chitose!" Long live Myanmar! ”
