I became the cannon fodder who died early, and I angrily married the villain

Four months, a full four months, Qin Sheng led the troops, went in and out of the grassland seven times, and all the tribes with combat effectiveness were picked by him.

During this period, Tuoba Duoji could not bear the pressure and wrote to Xie Zhan, hoping that he would send troops to attack Pingzhou, so that he could share the pressure of Xianbei.

Xie Zhan ignored the Xianbei's request for help. He would never do such a thing as diverting trouble to the east.

Dali's inaction made Tuoba Duoji curse Xie Zhan as "a boy who is not worth discussing with."

During these four months, Tuoba Duoji was often very anxious and could not sleep at night.

During these four months, the second son Tuoba Jin died in Dali, the seventh son was captured, and the third, fourth and sixth sons all died on the battlefield.

Now, because of the strength of the Jintai army, countless Xianbei herdsmen came to ask him, "Khan, let's surrender?"

Tuoba Duoji's hair was all white at this time, his complexion was not good, and he exuded a dead air.

Hearing the herdsmen's plea, he smiled bitterly. It was not a question of whether he was willing to surrender, but whether Pingzhou was willing to accept their surrender.

Now, there was only him, the old man, and the fifth son Tuoba Meng, and the seventh son Tuoba Lian who was captured by Pingzhou.

He now understood Pingzhou's intention. If Pingzhou wanted to accept the surrender of Xianbei, he, the culprit, must die, and the next Khan of Xianbei must be Tuoba Lian.

Facing Pingzhou's step-by-step pressure and the herdsmen's pleading, Tuoba Duoji knew that he had little time left.

He first ordered the execution of the fifth son Tuoba Meng, and then called Dugu Zhong, the only remaining general in the Xianbei royal court.

"Go ahead, cut off my head." Tuoba Duoji said to Dugu Zhong.

"Khan!" Dugu Zhong knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes.

Tuoba Duoji sighed, "I am a sinner of Xianbei, and it is not a pity to die. This war started with me, and it will end with me."

It's a pity that his dream of ruling the Central Plains in his life was lost. Three years ago, or seven years ago, he never doubted that his ambitions could not be realized. He even dreamed of the scene of him riding a horse on the Central Plains, and the entire Xianbei people followed their Tuoba Wang family to live a prosperous life in the Central Plains.

Now, the dream is broken.

Lv Songli is really amazing.

In the Hancheng Alliance, the three leaders of their forces, Song Mo passed away, and he was about to die, leaving Lv Songli alone.

Tuoba Duoji seemed to have seen the grand scene of Lv Songli unifying the Central Plains.

Three days later, Dugu Zhong held Tuoba Duoji's head and asked Qin Sheng to surrender, representing the Xianbei to admit that the territory previously occupied by Pingzhou was assigned to Pingzhou.

Later, he presented Pingzhou with 10,000 taels of gold and 500 cattle, sheep and horses as tribute to welcome back the seventh prince Tuoba Lian.

These were the greatest sincerity that the Xianbei could show.

In the second year of Daoming, the Xianbei begged for surrender to Pingzhou, and the governor of Pingzhou, Lu Songli, agreed. He accepted their surrender letter and tribute and released Tuoba Lian.

When Tuoba Lian was welcomed back by Dugu Zhong, at the last moment of leaving Pingzhou, he took a last look in the direction of Changli.

Now Pingzhou does not need to worry about the Xianbei invading the south again, at least when Lu Songli is in power, he will not have any intention.

In other words, he will not have the ambition to invade the south during his lifetime. Maybe the next generation will still be peaceful.

The Xianbei completely surrendered to Pingzhou, and the Pingzhou newspaper reported the incident. The people of Pingzhou were proud of it, and the people of Dali were surprised and sighed at the strength of Pingzhou, and yearned for it.

Pingzhou, Changli

Pingzhou fought against Xianbei for four months, despite having an advantage, until Xianbei was defeated and had no power to resist.

When the manpower, material resources and financial resources consumed in this battle were counted, the officials in Pingzhou were silent.

Many people did not understand why Lv Songli spent so much manpower, material resources, military forces and financial resources to attack Xianbei, and was willing to pay such a high price to continuously weaken Xianbei and wanted to exterminate them.

But Lv Songli knew that the rise of foreign races and their entry into the Central Plains was the biggest disaster for the Han Chinese.

As far as she knew the history, whether it was the Five Barbarians' Rebellion or the Ten Days of Yangzhou after the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass, they were probably not of my kind, and their hearts must be different. These were all strict racial segregation and cruel oppression and exploitation of the Han people after the large-scale entry of foreign races into the Central Plains.

They were very cruel in plundering and persecuting the Han people.

During the Five Barbarians' Rebellion, more than 10 million civilians died, and the Han population dropped directly from 20 million to 4 million. The Central Plains was like hell, with only one in ten people left. The Han people were facing serious genocide and oppression.

After the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass, the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were frantically racing to enclose land. Wherever they went, they massacred cities and exterminated clans. In less than 30 years, the Han population south of the Great Wall directly decreased by two-thirds.

County annals in various places have descriptions that at that time, the land of China had "no complete villages in the county, no complete families in the village, and no complete people in the family". Bones were exposed in the wild, and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles.

These shocking figures are all piled up by fresh lives.

In the later generations, when the nationalities merged, Lv Songli didn't care, but in this era, if she didn't do anything, then the Han people in China would suffer such a disaster, which she could not allow.

"Governor, will we attack Dali next?" asked the official below.

Lv Songli nodded, "Fight."

Now that they have beaten the Xianbei to their knees and surrender, their Pingzhou army can go south with the power of a great victory and a sharp spirit. And she had laid so much groundwork before, and now Dali is a good time to fight.

The officials below talked in a low voice. Once Xianbei surrendered, they could pursue the victory in Pingzhou. They should fight.

Moreover, when attacking Xianbei, the Jintai Army led by General Qin Sheng adopted the method of fighting to support the war, and the consumption of food and grass materials was relatively small. The materials Pingzhou currently has can still support a war.

Dali, Chang'an

When the news of Xianbei's surrender to Pingzhou reached Chang'an, all the civil and military officials in the court were silent.

Xianbei was a great concern for Dali. Such an enemy was actually solved by Pingzhou?

They did not doubt Pingzhou's victory at all, because the war between Pingzhou and Xianbei had been reported in Pingzhou newspapers since the beginning of the war. They also read it. They had their own judgment on whether the results were true or false.

At this time, the court officials all cast their eyes vaguely on Xie Zhan, the regent of Dali. Governor Lu Songli and Regent Xie Zhan, the former fiancée, are really powerful. Now they are both the leaders of the two forces. If they had not broken off the engagement, the world would not have been named Song.

Xie Zhan ignored their gazes.

Xiao Qun frowned and said in an incredible tone, "When Pingzhou fought against Xianbei, what did Pingzhou want to do by disclosing these war details?"

"Related weapons, troops, and combat methods, are they not afraid of leaking these military secrets, and we Dali will find a solution from them?"

Is Pingzhou sure that they, Dali, are completely helpless against the Pingzhou army? This is too arrogant!

Xie Zhan lowered his eyes and thought, of course, Pingzhou did this to scare the monkey.

Xie Zhan has already seen that Lu Songli's attitude towards foreigners and compatriots is really clear.

As for Dali, based on the same origin and ancestry, she mainly used deterrence. If possible, she probably didn't want to start a war in China.

Lu Songli loves this territory and the people on it.

When Xie Zhan realized this, he felt incredible.

Sometimes Xie Zhan really didn't understand why she was so ruthless to him when she could be so good to those civilians? Every time she attacked him, she wanted to kill him.

While Xie Zhan was thinking about his own thoughts, the court officials were also discussing Pingzhou's next plan.

"Will Pingzhou send troops to Dali next?"

"There is no doubt about it." The woman in Pingzhou is very ambitious.

Since it has been confirmed that Pingzhou will attack Dali, a minister asked a soul-searching question, "Can we withstand the attack of Pingzhou's army?"

As soon as this was said, the whole court was silent.

Those smartest ministers didn't say anything. When their eyes met, they separated immediately. On the contrary, some impulsive fools were shouting something like "asking this question will only boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige"...

"Wait, Pingzhou has so much food and grass?"

This reminded the civil and military officials of Dali. Yes, Pingzhou has just fought a four-month war. Can their food and grass support another war?

A minister reminded quietly, "You forgot that Qin Sheng fought a war to support the war in Xianbei."

Hearing this, the court officials looked at each other. The Pingzhou army did not have enough food and grass, and it was very likely that this method of fighting to support the war would be adopted again.

Hearing the discussions of the ministers, Xie Zhan sneered in his heart. Lu Songli would not let the Pingzhou army adopt the method of fighting to support the war. They couldn't even understand this point?

But he didn't say much, just said, "Let the front-line army prepare for war."

After leaving the court, Xie Zhan returned to the Regent's Mansion.

He and several confidants gathered in the study.

Faced with the current situation, several confidants had heavy expressions.

Fan Yang looked at Xie Zhan who was sitting in the main seat and boldly suggested to him, "Master, why don't you take the lead in opening the city gate and surrender Pingzhou?"

Xie Zhan was not surprised that Fan Yang made such a suggestion. Fan Yang, Jiang Boya and other confidants were much smarter than some idiots in the court. In addition, he had been collecting news about Pingzhou, and they saw the situation more clearly than those idiots.

"Let's talk about it later." Xie Zhan knew very well that Fan Yang and others were fanciful. Even if Lu Songli cherished his talent and was willing to let him go, the Qin family would not let him go in view of his previous engagement with Lu Songli.

What's more, Lu Songli would not let him go at all. The reason for not letting him go might not be personal grudges, but because of the different ruling lines of the two.

Not long after, Xie Zhan dismissed the meeting on the grounds of being tired.

Fan Yang was the last to leave. Before he left, he glanced at the regent standing by the window with his back to them, and felt that he was a little unsure of the master's mind. He was worried, and felt that he could not guess what the head of the family wanted to do.

Xie Zhan put his hands behind his back and looked up at the stars in the night sky.

He said silently in his heart, Lu Songli, you still have one more level. Only after you pass this level, you can be considered the true master of the world.

This level, either I help you pass it, or you will be eliminated and I will take over.
