The war is in chaos.

The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed.

But it seems to have nothing to do with the people.

Although it would still be some time before Wu Nian's troops arrived in the capital of Goguryeo, this period of time was actually not too generous.

The 70,000 soldiers in the city, organized by Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng, emptied the treasury, granary, and arsenal and sent them out of the city.

Most of the scholarly families and nobles in the city chose to leave the capital and follow the King of Goguryeo [South Hunt] to Seoul.

Zhao Mancheng proposed to leave Wu Nian a complete palace, treasures everywhere, and beauties. Nobles from this scholarly family did not want it.

They wanted to take away all the things they could move, including their wives, concubines, family members, domestic slaves, maids, guards, etc. But in such a hurry, how could there be so many carriages for them to move their belongings?

After some inventory and hesitation, these people only took away gold, silver, property deeds, land deeds, etc.

With the women and children crying, they left the south city gate and fled to Seoul. They moved faster than the army.

This chaotic scene was almost exactly the same as when Wu Nian had just invaded Jiangjie City.

The most pitiful people were the wealthy families and squires who fled from Jiangjie City. They thought that by arriving in the capital, they could avoid the military revolution and gain a firm foothold.

Unexpectedly, the capital city could not stand, and they could only flee for the second time in tears.

The scholarly family and nobles who have made up their mind to leave have closed their doors and asked the guards to be on guard, waiting for the change of dynasty.

There were loyal ministers who committed suicide and sacrificed their lives for the country, and some even burned down their own houses and set themselves on fire.

The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, and the war is in chaos.

But all this seems to have nothing to do with the people in the capital. The people of Goguryeo have no national consciousness.

They won't budge for a country that seems to be dying.

However, this is closely related to Wu Nian's kindness to the people in Jiangjie Prefecture and Yizhou Prefecture.

Wu Nian's army treated its own people as if they were in its own country. It did no harm to the people of Goguryeo. This did not gain the favor of the people, but it did not make the people feel danger and were forced to join the fleeing team.

In fact, Goguryeo officials have vilified Wu Nian to a certain extent. They propagate that Wu Nian's army committed all kinds of evil and massacred cities and looted wherever they went.

But the news coming from the north is all peaceful.

The people were not fools, so they did not obey.

All in all, the state of Goguryeo's capital city was very unusual. The middle and upper classes fled and died for their country.

Those who remain are waiting for the change of dynasty.

In full swing.

The people at the lower level are as dusty as dirt. They do whatever they have to do. What they worry about is not the ruin of their country and their family, but the cost of food, rice, oil and salt.

The feeling of tearing apart throughout the capital was extremely obvious.

After the Goguryeo army had settled all matters, Li Jinzhu took the King of Goguryeo and took the phoenix chariot ahead under the protection of the royal guards.

Then came the troops from various ministries, and finally Zhao Mancheng led thousands of elite troops to defeat the rear.

It's just that this trip is not easy.

Soldiers fled constantly along the way, and some even fled in large groups.

Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong were very calm about this and did not waver. This escape journey was a journey to choose loyal ministers.

The navy on the Yalu River, the navy on the coast, and these 70,000 soldiers.

Those who still have feelings for Goguryeo and feel there is still hope will follow them unswervingly. On the contrary, they may flee back home.

Or they might simply join Wu Nian under the leadership of military officers.

When the waves wash away the sand, all that's left is gold. They can rely on this gold to defend the Han River, Seoul, and half of the country.

Moreover, the south is where the Li family and the Zhao family have deep roots, and there are high mountains and mountains, which are suitable for defense.

The two of them are full of confidence in their future.

It's time to go, go.

Of course what was supposed to come came.

This morning.

Zhao Yanting, who volunteered to be the vanguard, first led his troops to the capital of Goguryeo.

Under the banner of "Zhao", Zhao Yanting was wearing heavy armor, sitting astride a horse, looking excitedly at the majestic city wall in front of him.

The choice I made back then was really the right one.

The four prefectures in Liaodong, plus half of Goguryeo, are more than enough to establish the foundation of a country. As a founding hero, I am one of the captains.

How can I obtain a hereditary and irreplaceable title?

The Zhao family and the Wu family have always been together.

Live and die together with the country.

Feeling inspired, Zhao Yanting plucked himself up and ordered: "Separate four thousand-household warriors to take over the city defense."

"Separate four thousand warriors from each household and enter the palace of Goguryeo."

"Pass my military order. No one can touch the city. Anyone who dares to violate military discipline will be killed without mercy."

"Yes." Zhao Yanting's soldiers responded loudly and passed the order. Soon after, Wu Nianjun Zhao Yanting's troops completely took over the capital of Goguryeo.

Soon, the remaining Goguryeo civil servants, generals, dignitaries, and scholars got the news. They walked out of their homes and gathered to the north of the city to welcome the new king into the city.

The residence of veteran minister Yu Weize.

Yu Weize neither followed the King of Goguryeo to hunt south of Seoul, nor committed suicide for his country, nor did he intend to surrender to Wu Nian.

He wants to do something big.

After receiving the news, Yu Wei put on his court clothes and summoned his children, wives and concubines in the hall.

Yu Wei raised his head and looked at his children's wives and concubines with a very heroic attitude. He said: "This time, I will splash Wu Nian's body with my blood."

"My house will be destroyed."

"In order to avoid you being humiliated, I have prepared everything. You calculate the time and set fire to yourself."

"Master. I don't want to die."

"Father-in-law."

The women and children were shocked when they heard this and immediately fell to the ground, crying. But the men of the Yu family were stubborn.

"Yes." Yu Weize's eldest son, Yu Dingguo, responded loudly.

"Father, please go first, we will arrive shortly."

"Yes." Yu Wei nodded with satisfaction, good boy, I read you right. Our Yu family is full of loyal people. Then, he hid a dagger in his sleeve, walked out of his mansion with his head held high, and got on the soft

Take the sedan chair and head to the north of the city.

When Wei Ze arrived at the north of the city, everyone present looked at him in surprise.

Why is this old man here too?

In Goguryeo.

Yu Wei was known as a tough guy and loyal minister. Even Li Jinzhu was afraid of him. It was not unusual for others to surrender to Wu Nian.

Yu Weize surrendered to Wu Nian, but it was as if the sun was rising in the west, full of incredible things.

Immediately, someone started to sneer.

"This old guy is usually very arrogant and considers himself a loyal minister. He doesn't expect that at critical moments, he is also a coward. How is he different from us?"

Some people frowned, feeling that something was not right.

This old guy doesn't want to do anything, does he?

In this weird atmosphere, Wu Nian's army arrived in the capital.

Zhao Yanting had already entered the city first, so there was no need to worry about Wu Nian's safety. Surrounded by hundreds of horsemen, Wu Nian arrived in front of the gate of Goguryeo City.

"The country that I, Wu Nian, want to destroy, will be destroyed is only a matter of time."

Wu Nian raised his head and looked at the majestic city gate tower, feeling a little proud.

Goguryeo was a powerful country.

But he destroyed the city and the country in a matter of months.
