Chapter 224 The tragic situation in Wuzhou (2)

The torch soon lit up on the plains.

That night, thousands of Song army corpses and thousands of Yuan army corpses were piled up.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties. The Song Dynasty's guards and the Palace Front Office's guards were almost dead in name only. Zhang Xi, the Duke of the Palace Front Office, was beheaded on his right arm and became disabled. Jiang Cunzhong, the official official of the Guards' guards, died in the chaos. Only Yue Peng and several soldiers remained.

The next morning, Zhao Dongting forced himself to walk out of the chariot, went to the place full of corpses, lit the fire himself, and incinerated the corpses.

Tens of thousands of corpses were piled up, poured with tiny oil, and the flames soared into the sky and crackled.

Countless soldiers surrounded him, watching quietly, and crying silently. In the middle, there were their brothers and their friends.

The whole world seemed to be silent.

Soon, the Yuan army really left the city as Qin Han expected.

The Yuan army flag on the top of the city gradually disappeared.

Kong Yuan had a dark face and suppressed his great anger, and led the remaining Yuan soldiers out of the city from the east gate.

Thinking about the time when he led 100,000 soldiers to attack the city, but now, less than 30,000 people who followed him out of the city are left.

In addition to the more than 30,000 people who had lost their siege before, there were more than 30,000 soldiers who died of poisoning after drinking the well water in the city.

He never thought that the Song army would poison the well water and use this kind of conscience method. Because this method really hurts the world. When it was discovered that something was wrong with the soldiers, it would be too late.

It would take no time for the well water in Wuzhou City to dilute the poisonous poison all, and it was obvious that he could not continue to garrison troops in Wuzhou City.

The army had tens of thousands of people, and had food but no water, so it could not last long. It would be better to retreat earlier and look for another opportunity to start a war with the Song army.

Wuzhou was crucial to the Song Dynasty, but it was not that important to them, and there was no need to defend it. If Wuzhou was not allowed, they could also attack the Song Dynasty from other places and directly seize Leizhou.

What really made him angry was the more than 30,000 soldiers who were poisoned by the poisonous poison.

That's more than 30,000 elite soldiers!

He led a 100,000 troops but failed to save Ali Hague, but lost more than 70,000. Kong Yuan was naturally defeated this time.

Such a huge loss may even affect the situation in the entire south.

After they left, the Song army rushed towards Wuzhou City.

Zhao Dongting's carriage stopped under Wuzhou City.

A few meters away in front of the chariot was a corpse lying in an extremely twisted posture.

It's Wanyan Zhang.

His bones were broken, and his hands and feet were bent. His helmet fell several meters away, and even his head was broken.

Zhao Dongting walked out of the carriage and saw Wanyan Zhang's body. His face looked paler. He was silent for a long time and ordered Zhao Da: "Treat the body of General Wanyan."

Although Wanyan Zhang did not surrender to the Song Dynasty for a long time, he led the Jurchen soldiers to fight in Wuzhou and blocked the 100,000 army for several days, which deserves anyone's admiration.

Zhao Da took the order to take the soldiers.

It was not until the coroner in the army came up and carried Wanyan Zhang's body down that Zhao Dongting returned to the chariot and continued to go to Wuzhou City.

As soon as I entered the city, I saw corpses all over the streets, including Yuan army, Song army, and people.

The corpses lie in messy streets.

Before Kong Yuan left the city, he didn't even feel like he was cleaning up the bodies.

The entire Wuzhou City really became a dead place. Looking up, there was no living thing.

Even when Murongchuan slaughtered Suixi County, Leizhou, it was not so miserable.

And this was all caused by Qin Han's poisoning.

He took Wuzhou, which completely turned the city into a dead city. Even the soldiers who were used to bloody scenes could not help but be captured by the scene inside the city.

In addition to human corpses, there were also many animals such as mice, wild cats, etc. on the streets, all of which were dead.

The poisonous poison made these humans and animals die extremely miserable, with red eyes and black all over their bodies.

Zhao Dongting has issued strict orders to prevent the soldiers from drinking water in the city. If they want to drink water, they need to go to the Xunjiang River outside the city to get water. In fact, he does not need to order at all. Seeing the death of these people and animals in the city, they may not dare to drink water in the city anymore.

The chariot stopped naturally.

The soldiers all looked at the corpses on the street with extremely horror, and the air was filled with a strong sense of death.

Zhao Dongting slightly lifted the curtain of the car, and when he saw this tragic phenomenon, he slightly closed his eyes.

Then, he ordered: "The chariot stops here, let the soldiers pile up all the bodies in the city and burn them!"

He didn't want to go into the city anymore, for fear that he would not be able to bear the more miserable scene.

On this day, it took more than 40,000 soldiers left by the Song army to clean up the bodies in the city, which took half a day.

There are fewer than a hundred people in the city, and dozens of them are already scared to death.

The people who were poisoned by the poisonous poison were over 4,000. Tanks were piled up with corpses and were sent out of the city.

The soldiers' armor and weapons were collected and piled up at the gate of the city.

Zhao Dongting finally passed through Wuzhou City and went to the east gate of the city.

The air was filled with some rotten smell.

The corpses of countless Jurchen soldiers and Yuan soldiers were lying on the city wall, overlapping.

Some soldiers could not bear the tragic situation on the city wall and vomited.

There was almost no blood on Zhao Dongting's face. After a long period of silence, he said: "Clearn out the bodies of the soldiers of the anti-Yuan army."

Zhao Da went down to pass the order, and soon many soldiers rushed to the top of the city to pile up the Jurchen soldiers, Yuan soldiers and the bodies of the people on the city.

And there are even dense corpses under the city.

Some soldiers came to report that there were also many corpses on the other end of the water village, floating on the river.

It was not until dusk that the bodies were completely cleaned up.

In just five days, the number of people who died inside and outside Wuzhou City was as high as 80,000.

In this era of scarcity of population, even most county towns do not have such a large population.

Wanyan Zhang led his Jurchen soldiers to draw a brilliant end to their lives. The battle in Wuzhou City will surely spread throughout the world.

Zhao Dongting led the soldiers to sacrifice to the sky at the top of the city and personally ignited the bodies of the Jurchen soldiers. When the bodies were burned to ashes, he personally scattered Wanyan Zhang's ashes on the top of the city, "From now on, Wuzhou City will be renamed Jurchen City. I swear here that the Song Dynasty will never be destroyed and the Jurchens will eventually be glorious."

He said the following sentence to the soldiers behind, and also to the soldiers who died in the Jurchens whose souls were still wandering on the city of Wuzhou.

This is the promise that Wanyan Zhang exchanged for his life and nearly 10,000 Jurchen soldiers.

Zhao Dongting didn't know if his tetanus could be cured, so he said that the Southern Song Dynasty was immortal, not that he was immortal.
