The fire burned Thang Long for three days.

Such a fire cannot be extinguished at all, and the continuous wooden buildings in the city are undoubtedly the sharpest weapon of the Ming army.

The horse feed and grain that were originally used to defend the city have now been burned to ashes.

The entire Shenglong City is still billowing with thick smoke. Although the open fire is gone, a large amount of charcoal is still red with billowing smoke and dust.

On the third day, a heavy rain came, and the heavy rain was black, because the air was full of dust, and when the black rain fell, Thang Long had become a hell on earth.

Originally there were 200,000 people in the city, including 100,000 soldiers and horses. Now, the remaining people are only seven to eight thousand. The vast majority of people were not burned to death by the fire. They died peacefully because they inhaled too much concentration. Smoke, suffocation.

There are broken walls and ruins everywhere, and there are corpses everywhere. Most of the people who survived were burnt. Some people coughed desperately because they had inhaled too much dust.

They looked blankly at everything in front of them. This royal capital was like a can of food. The so-called persistence and clearing the walls made them a shackles.

Those who survived still have lingering fears. The scene of that night was really terrifying.

People found Li Yan, the emperor of Annan, with disheveled hair. He didn't look like an emperor. He was protected by several surviving ministers and hid in a dry well in the palace. When he pulled it out, his whole body was still shivering, and the nightmare-like terror still lingers in his heart.

In fact, Annan people are not soft-hearted. Even Annan people have a tradition of martial arts, and their temperament is relatively tough.

But what you are bravely targeting is, after all, a living enemy. Any brave person who suddenly sees things falling from the sky, you can't touch them, and they can destroy everything in you in just an hour, the so-called bravery becomes ridiculous.

The same is true for Li Min. If the Ming army entered the city, he might not be reconciled. If he could escape by chance, he would definitely try his best to call on the soldiers and horses from the Annan states to restore the country and fight the Ming army to the end.

But after facing this fire, he remained silent, trembling, and the last bit of courage had already been reduced to ashes.

He has only one thought, the Ming army is invincible, these can appear from the sea, they can appear from the sky, they can turn all fortified cities into nothing, and they can make the Ming army, which can kill hundreds of thousands of elites in an instant, already beyond his cognition.

In fact, if they think rationally, they will find the weakness of the flying ball. The flying ball moves very slowly in the sky and is only suitable for attacking fixed targets. The more soldiers and horses gathered, the greater the disadvantage to the flying ball. The Annan people The essence of encountering such setbacks is that they foolishly chose to gather elite soldiers and defend the city in an attempt to fortify the walls and clear the country to deal with the Ming army. .

It's just a pity that at this point, people can no longer think rationally.

Li Min curled up like a bereaved dog, with a helpless expression on his face.

Today, the so-called An Nanguo is no different from a joke.

That Hanlin also survived, half of his long hair was burned off, and there were burn marks on his face. He said sadly: "Your Majesty, my Annan Ancestral Temple also suffered a fire. This is a mortal enmity. Your Majesty should immediately Leave Thang Long, run south, find a way to reach Champa, or other states and counties, gather volunteers, and fight the Ming army to the end."

The faces of the other ministers turned green with fright.

Still playing?

They have already lost their family members and all their wealth, their mansion has been burned to ashes, and they have nothing left. Logically speaking, if they don't take revenge for this sake, they will really be worse than pigs and dogs.

But more people, in the eyes, only fear is left.

"The Ming army is invincible. I don't know when those heavenly soldiers reappeared. Your Majesty, up to now, hundreds of thousands of elites have been wiped out. There must be no further fighting..."

"Yeah, no more fights..."

People howled and beat their hearts.

How can you continue to resist? This is courting death.

Their psychological defenses have completely collapsed. What kind of blood feud, what kind of family and country, now in front of this flying ball, there is nothing left.

Li Min looked around in fear.

Someone came in a hurry: "Your Majesty, the troops and horses in each battalion have been searched and inspected. There are not one sergeant in ten, more than 80,000 dead in the army, countless casualties among the people, and all the food and grass have been burned... A scout came and said yes. ...It is said that the Ming army has already started to go south, and it will reach Thang Long in a few days."

"..."

Everyone shuddered.

Li Min began to cry loudly: "Never would I have thought that I would inherit the great rule without any loss, and the foundation of my ancestors would also be lost by my hands."

All the ministers cried loudly.

Li Min said: "Nowadays, the people are suffering heavy casualties. How can I drive the people to fight against Ming thieves again for my own selfishness and my foundation? I teach, it is my bounden duty to love the common people, and now the thieves are coming in menacingly, my death will never count, so why should the common people be innocent?"

The ministers cried even harder, people beat their chests and fell down, with a sense of desolation.

Li Min said: "The current strategy is to surrender the whole country and let the Ming thieves deal with it. That's the best policy."

Li Min is not stupid.

At this point, if you still don't surrender, are you waiting for yourself to be killed by the Ming army?

Hang it up, do you want to show it to the public?

If you want to survive, you have to surrender quickly. If you surrender proactively, you will not lose An Le Gong. Otherwise, you will really die without a place to die.

I just want to surrender, how can I say that I am afraid.

The common people are just baskets. They usually ride on their heads, eat them, drink them, use them, and sleep with their beautiful daughters. Once they are in danger, they can push them to the front to show their love. The common people can't bear to lose their lives, so it's not that I'm timid, but that the soldiers, civilians and civilians are too fragile, and I want to protect them.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

All the ministers cried loudly.

But although I cried, I couldn't help it, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Li Min was playing tricks, if he said he wasn't sad, it would be a lie. Thinking that Annan's foundation had been handed down to him for six generations, but it was completely ruined by him, he also felt sad from his heart.

Li Min gritted his teeth: "The living kings in the city must be controlled, and they must not be allowed to escape."

"This……"

Li Min wept and said: "Now that we are determined to descend to the Ming Dynasty, from now on we will wait for the emperor and ministers to be fish and meat, and the Ming people will be swordsmen. If we wait in the Ming camp, some kings will escape and call on the people of all states and counties to fight against the Ming army and revive Annan. , when the time comes, the Ming army will definitely anger us, and at that time, how we will deal with it, I am afraid that in the end, the Ming people will punish us to vent their anger."

"..."

Your Majesty...you are really particular about people.

This abacus is very precise.

Since you want to surrender, you should be determined, don't have any accidents, as Li Yan said, some clans ran to raise the pole, and the one who died the worst was Li Yan, it's better to just stop thinking about it and capture him obediently.

Back then, Emperor Wen of the Ming Dynasty had such an accident when he conquered Annan, but now, such an accident cannot happen again.

Everyone wept again.

What else can I do but cry?

………………

When the mighty Ming army under the leadership of Fang Jinglong arrived at Shenglong, Fang Jinglong's eyes were moist.

When Emperor Wen conquered Annan, almost all the sons of the honorable officials flocked to Annan. His own father also stationed in Annan when he was young. They sweated and shed blood here, and some of them made great contributions.

But in the end, Emperor Wen passed away and the new king ascended the throne. Although Annan was still occupied by Ming Dynasty, the rebellion was raging. The Ming army was disturbed by the rebels. Fang Jinglong's father was shot here once Ya, fortunately, survived.

After Xuanzong ascended the throne, he ordered the Ming army to withdraw from Annan. At that time, the proclamation spread to the Annan states. The Ming army guards guarding the local area were relieved, but at the same time, they were full of unwillingness.

Everyone knows that this is not the answer, and everyone understands that Daming has spent countless money and food, and countless troops and horses have entered here, and he has won many battles, and he has occupied Annan, and he has spilled blood here, in exchange for Annan Kingdom was turned into a prefecture and county, and included in the territory of Ming Dynasty, but in the end, everything was wiped out. The court at that time, of course, had considerations from the court at that time. It may be that it is meaningless to go to the West. Occupy Annan and let the fleet set off in Annan , Going deep into the Western Ocean, getting twice the result with half the effort, doesn't make much sense. Since the sea is banned by the imperial court, the long coastline of Annan has become a huge burden instead.

It may also be that such an occupation has caused Daming to waste countless money and food, which can be used elsewhere.

Regardless of the reason, after more than ten years of hard work, everything was in vain. The soldiers who entered Annan at the order of Emperor Wen finally withdrew in despair.

But now, like his father, he has also come here, and Shenglong in front of him has almost become a dead city.

Fang Jinglong ordered to prepare to attack the city.

But at this time, the gate of Shenglong City was opened.

The shivering Li Min led the surviving officials, naked with thorns on their backs, and the gray-faced Annan soldiers came out slowly with white flags.

Li Min, who was carrying thorns on his back, went to the gate of the city and bowed down. The rest of the people bowed down one after another. After more than half a month of conquering Annan, Shenglong was defeated. He didn't have a chance to present the yellow book, because that thing had long been burned to ashes by the fire. Although there were some flaws in the begging surrender this time, it seemed understandable.

"The sinful minister fought against the heavenly soldiers, and ten thousand deaths are unforgivable. Today, I feel repentant and welcome the king. Long live the Ming emperor, long live, long live! Annan, everyone is sincerely attached, and I hope that the Ming emperor will not abandon him and treat him kindly, my minister... Weeping with gratitude, I looked north and kowtowed."
