"System prompt: The player's general Xu Huang captured the Woju Royal Court, killed the Woju King, and destroyed the Woju Kingdom. He is rewarded with a [Heavy Cavalry Battalion Construction Card], a set of the Earth-level technique "Heavy Cavalry," and a [Dragon Qi]."
"System prompt: Players occupy Woju, and the fortune of the Great Xia Dynasty will be enhanced."
On the way to Goguryeo, Lin Han received two reminders.
Both countries were destroyed.
After experiencing the bloody baptism of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the equipment was upgraded, and the generals were trained, the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army is now different from before.
The small countries in the northeast couldn't even defeat Gongsun Du, so how could they resist the Yellow Turban Army after they dominated the Central Plains?
Of the four kingdoms in the northeast, only Goguryeo remains.
After pacifying the Northeast, this black soil became part of his territory and would become his granary in the future.
Soon after the system prompted, the spy arrived with an urgent military report, informing of the news of the destruction of the two countries.
"Send a message to Xu Huang's generals to lead the troops into Goguryeo and march towards the inner city."
"promise."
The messenger was ordered to leave.
On the fifth day, the army arrived at the gates of the city.
This is the current royal city of Goguryeo. The royal family of Goguryeo is all inside. One hundred thousand Goguryeo soldiers are trapped inside with no way to retreat.
"Wenhe, do you have any method to break the city?"
Lin Han looked at the big city in front of him and asked Jia Xu beside him.
"Besiege without attacking. Our forces outnumber the enemy by a factor of two, and our combat effectiveness is ten times greater. We can attack by force, but this will result in casualties, making it a poor strategy. Within the city, there are hundreds of thousands of civilians and tens of thousands of soldiers. Now, the city is isolated, with no support. Goguryeo is holding the city, awaiting reinforcements from the Gongsun clan of Liaodong. Once they realize they can't wait for reinforcements, they'll despair."
"If Gongsun dares to come, I will destroy him as well. Order the entire army to station and besiege the city."
Lin Han ordered a siege on the city.
Seven days later, Xu Huang led his troops to the outside of the city to meet up with Lin Han. Three days later, Bo led his troops to meet up with them.
There are 200,000 soldiers stationed outside the city, but their actual combat power is enough to defeat the Goguryeo army in one round.
"Your Majesty, an envoy from Goguryeo requests an audience."
"Let him in."
Lin Han and his generals were in the military tent when they saw Yibasu enter the tent with a worried look on his face.
"King of Daxia, my king is willing to pay you 50 million coins in war reparations. Please withdraw your troops." Yibasu said respectfully.
"Before, I said that before my troops reached the inner city, they would withdraw if they paid 500 million in compensation. Now that they are at the gates of the inner city, the price is different."
"We don't have 500 million yuan." Yibasu said aggrievedly.
"That's your business. Besides, the compensation now is not 500 million, but 1 billion."
"impossible."
Ethylbetamol almost jumped up like a silly roe deer that was stimulated.
"Impossible? I'll give you another choice: open the city and surrender, and submit to me, or I'll attack the city, slaughter the Goguryeo royal family, and then take over this land." Lin Han said.
"We can't surrender."
"You're still pretty tough. When the city is broken, I'll deal with it my way."
"You can't do this. The reinforcements from the Han Gongsun clan are on the way. If you attack the inner city, the Gongsun clan will not let you go."
"Gongsun family? In the past, I made an agreement with Emperor Liu Hong of Han: I will not offend Han, and Han will not attack me. Otherwise, I don't mind a fight with the Han."
Lin Han waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to take Yibasu away.
The fact that the King of Chuan sent Yibasu to negotiate again shows that he is now in a hurry.
Lin Han was not in a hurry. The food and fodder he prepared was enough for him to eat for two months. Together with the food and fodder he got from Goguryeo, Yiluo and Wokou, it was enough for him to last for three months or even longer.
If necessary, new food and fodder will be delivered, so there is no need to worry about food and fodder at all.
He just didn't believe that it was just a small country and that an isolated city could remain unconquered after being besieged for two months.
After that, Lin Han, the envoy of the King of Chuan from the old country, refused to meet him, and the two sides faced off across the city. On the fifth day, Yibasu came again. After making several reports, he waited for half a day before seeing Lin Han.
"King of Daxia, I come here with words from His Majesty and want to negotiate with you." Yibasu's face looked much older, obviously because he had not had enough food or sleep during this period.
"explain."
"Your Majesty is willing to become a vassal state of the Great Xia Dynasty and pay tribute to it every year."
"Not interested. Go back. Either open the city and surrender, or continue to be trapped."
Lin Han is not interested in vassal states.
There is no point in having vassal states. Once they become weak, the other side will still retaliate, and even more cruelly.
Lin Han ordered his men to send Yibasu away and not let him stay here any longer.
The two sides confronted each other again, and after that, Lin Han refused to meet any envoys from the King of Chuan of his homeland.
After another five days, the defenders on the Goguryeo city wall looked listless and looked like they had lost their parents. It seemed that they might even surrender if attacked.
Suddenly, the city gate opened.
The King of Chuan, holding the letter of surrender in both hands, led all the officials in the inner city out slowly.
Surrender!
The King of Chuan of the former state knelt down, held up the letter of surrender, and looked aggrieved.
Seeing this, Zhang Sheng stepped out, rode over on horseback, grabbed the letter of surrender and brought it back.
"System prompt: King Guguochuan of Goguryeo has surrendered to the player. Do you accept?"
"yes."
Lin Han took the letter of surrender brought back by Zhang Sheng.
"The King of Chuan has surrendered. All soldiers in the city, lay down your weapons and raise your hands. If I enter the city and encounter anyone who resists, I will kill them without mercy."
