Chapter 1378 Three States Surrender
After drinking tea, a group of people not only were not in a hurry to eat, but instead enjoyed the cool air while talking and laughing.
Some of the information is relatively clear, because I have been holding it in all morning. Now I have the opportunity, I no longer hold it in, but directly opened the chat box, and said to my companions mysteriously: "Have you heard? It is said that, Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Yangzhou have all sent people over now, guess what they are here for?!"
When the companions heard this, they all looked at each other and smiled, and then said: "Wang Si, your news is out of date. This matter was spread everywhere last night. What can they do here, other than to surrender?" Expressed."
"If the emperor of Cang Kingdom knew about this, I'm afraid he would be angry to death."
"But yes, when the Cang Kingdom ruled us, they didn't treat us as human beings. In the past, when we were doing corvee work, we not only had to work hard, but also had to bring food and money. Otherwise, we would either die of exhaustion, starve to death or be beaten to death. On the contrary, those big households, Every time I do corvee work, I make a lot of money. It's not like today. I heard that Chen Qi from the farm next door is the son of a wealthy family from the south, but now, he doesn't have to do the same things as us."
"There are also those scholars who are not good people. They said before that the general liked to massacre the city. They said it in a decent way, but in fact, all the people the general killed were bullies. I was almost deceived before. .”
"You think, why are those who have read the book so bad?!"
Someone took over the conversation.
"So, for many things, you can't look at what he said, but how he did it. Let's just say that during the Cang Kingdom, didn't the court shout every day that the emperor loves his people like his sons? But whose father would Did you push your own child to death?!"
"On the contrary, I, Daxin, didn't say any empty words, but look at it now, if nothing else, I have enough white rice..."
"By the way, there are only twelve states in the world. Now I, Da Cang, already have five states. Now that we have three more states, we already have eight states. So, doesn't it mean that the mountains and rivers will be unified..."
Daxin did not prohibit people from discussing state affairs, and even encouraged people to discuss it. After all, if such things were prohibited, the so-called fear of someone spreading rumors was just false. Forbidding it was nothing more than a guilty conscience.
…
On the other side, the envoys from Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Yangzhou are also in the military camp at this moment, waiting quietly.
These three envoys are all around thirty years old, which is when they are at their most vigorous. As for the identities of the three envoys, they are not ordinary officials, but the sons of the three prefectures.
Generally speaking, state pastors are appointed by the imperial court, and their appointment and removal also need to be reported to the imperial court and then require the emperor's consent.
But this is about the time when Da Cang first founded the country. Nowadays, the replacement of state shepherds actually has little to do with the imperial court. Reporting to the imperial court is just to give the imperial court face. If the imperial court agrees, then it is good for you and me. , if you don’t agree, trouble will follow immediately.
Of course, in the three states of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Yangzhou, there is no one dominant force, but several families jointly control one state. The state pastor is just a person who is pushed to the front, and is the middleman between the imperial court and local forces. .
Nowadays, the three states have sent up or down the table, which is also the result of the joint discussion of these many forces.
Surrendering is something that should be done sooner rather than later. The sooner you get it, the better the treatment you will get. The earlier you can negotiate, the later you have it, the less choice you have.
If before Zhao Cheng took Jizhou, many forces still had illusions about the Great Cang court, the battle of Jizhou completely shattered many people's illusions about the Great Cang.
The cavalry composed of three million people is invincible!
And for them, the Da Cang court is no longer reliable. As for themselves, first the world-destroying divine thunder in the Tian Jue Pass battle consumed their strength, and then in the Tian Jue Pass, under the temptation of the king, all the forces... Everyone tried their best, but once again they were all ruined.
Now, although they have recovered somewhat after several years of recuperation, Zhao Cheng's power has expanded even more terrifyingly.
People simply cannot afford the courage to fight to the death.
After all, if they fight to the death, they will be completely defeated. If they surrender, Zhao Cheng will not kill them all, but just disperse them and move them.
Even if you have talents and can become an official, the subsequent wealth and honor will be thinner, but it is much better than complete destruction.
Under normal circumstances, when facing this kind of surrender, all masters would take it very seriously, and it would even be very common for them to directly summon the envoy when they first arrived as a courtesy.
But this time, when faced with the surrender of Sanzhou, Zhao Cheng did not summon him immediately. Instead, he was thinking about whether to accept the other party's surrender or to fight all the way.
After all, there is no rule that when faced with surrender, one must accept it.
Many times, victory comes too easily, which may not be a good thing.
It can be said that in this world, throughout the ages, Zhao Cheng is probably the only king who had such an idea when he was conquering the world.
"The whole city is filled with mourning and blood. I just want to save the common people..."
After thinking for a long time, Zhao Cheng finally made a decision.
There are not so many perfect things in the world. Under the general situation, he believes that those people who have different intentions will not be able to make trouble even if they have intentions.
As for before making the decision, what Zhao Cheng thought of was the First Emperor who traveled through the previous world, and the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms.
At that time, this group of people was not killed, because it was believed that the subsequent demise of Qin had laid the foundation for disaster.
But to really kill them all, the killing would be too much, or in other words, too many innocent people would be affected.
At this moment, when Zhao Cheng was faced with a similar choice, while thinking, his spirit seemed to have completed a dialogue with that king across time, space, and the world.
When the other party faced this choice at that time, it was probably the same as him, because of the kindness in his heart and because he looked down on these defeated generals at all.
When you are strong, you are no match for me, let alone, will you become a group of rats who can only hide in the dark in the future? !
This is a kind of self-confidence that belongs to the king and the hegemon.
…
"Your Majesty has a decree to announce the merging of Prefecture, Youzhou, and Yangzhou. The envoys from the three prefectures have come to see you..."
Following the loud voice, the three envoys walked into the largest tent in the military camp with their heads lowered.
The camp and the palace are naturally incomparable, and even in terms of style, they are far inferior to the mansion of Zhou Mu.
But at this moment, this simple tent made the three envoys, who had seen strong winds and waves, their legs tremble a little. Even walking all the way, none of them even dared to raise their heads. They just looked at them with their peripheral vision. Looking at both sides.
A place is just a place, but it varies from person to person.
For example, here, the invisible murderous aura and kingly aura were suppressing them, making them unable to breathe.
Finally, after walking for more than a hundred steps, the three of them finally arrived at their destination. Vaguely, they saw a person sitting at the top, but they did not dare to take a closer look. Instead, they prostrated themselves on the ground without hesitation and bowed to him. Long live.
It wasn't until they heard the sound of being free of ceremony that the three of them finally got up. Taking this opportunity, they finally saw the person at the top. It was a young man wearing royal robes. His whole body had the texture of jade, and he was even more... There is a kind of temperament that is like heaven and God, not like ordinary people.
Such an impression made the three people's hearts skip a beat, and it was only then that they finally realized that their backs were getting wet without even realizing it.
…
In August of the eighth year of Yingtian, the three prefectures of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Yangzhou presented their surrender, and for a while, the world fell silent.
In November of the same year, the northern barbarians with 150,000 cavalry plundered the northern plains. For a while, the northern plains were filled with mourning and corpses littered the fields.
The Great Cang Imperial Court, which has lasted for more than a thousand years, seems to be about to reach its final end.
