Chapter 113
The monarch of the state of Chu was dumbfounded when he heard this, he is now just a king of the dead country, saying that money Ling Xu naturally will not take it seriously, and now all his money is in Ling Xu's pocket. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He stopped howling, and sat down on the ground with his brain, which he hadn't touched in decades, and thought about it seriously.
Since Ling Xu said that he wanted to exchange, then he must have something that he could still use to exchange and save his little life.
He thought about it for a long time, and finally opened his mind, got up from the ground all of a sudden, knelt down two steps and hurriedly said to Ling Xu: "I ...... I, I still have an army of 300,000! ”
"An army of 300,000?" Ling Xu sneered: "Your 300,000 army, can you come back after entering Qidi?" ”
The monarch of the state of Chu was stunned for a moment, and he didn't seem to understand what Ling Xu was talking about.
Seeing that he was so stupid, Ling Xu didn't bother to talk to him, looked at him and said coldly: "Now that the Chu State is the territory of the Jiang State, don't say that your 300,000 troops can't come back, even if they can come back, do you think they will be willing to use it for me?" It's not impossible for me to keep your life, but you should repair a letter to the world, saying that you voluntarily surrender to the Empress of Jiangguo and serve the Empress of Jiangguo as the king! I'm still in your hands. ”
"And you will no longer be the monarch of Chu from now on, but an official of my Jiang State and Chudi, obey the orders of the Empress of Jiang State and govern Chudi, I will send the Ling family army to stay here, and I will also leave my henchmen and advisers behind, so are you willing?"
This is tantamount to treating the monarch of Chu as a puppet, but now the monarch of Chu has long been unable to take care of this, Ling Xu can not kill him, it has already made him feel that he has picked up a life, now let alone let him write an edict to announce it to the world, even if he asks him to call Ling Xu his father on the spot, he will immediately agree.
So he immediately leaned over and kowtowed to Jiang Ruoyun and Ling Xu three times: "Chen Chuyu has seen Your Majesty and General Ling. ”
For a person like Chu Yu who has no blood, Jiang Ruoyun and Ling Xu were a little disdainful, and waved their hands to let them take him down.
As soon as Chu Yu left, Jiang Ruoyun looked at Ling Xu and smiled. She stared at Ling Xu's smiling eyes, and her expression was full of interest: "I found that you have become bad now." ”
Ling Xu raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Less garlic!" Jiang Ruoyun snorted at him: "You left this Chu Yu, in addition to appeasing people's hearts, more importantly, you want to break Qi Hao's situation, right?" ”
Ling Xu looked at her and did not shy away from mentioning Qi Hao's name. I didn't know what it was like, he nodded lightly, and did not deny her words: "Qi Hao has always played a passive role, gaining fame and fortune. Now that Chu Yu has announced that the world will automatically be attached, the 300,000 army should be returned to Chu Yu's account. It's just that I didn't expect the 300,000 army to really come back, and it's not a good thing for you and me to come back, I just want to see what Qi Hao will do. ”
When Jiang Ruoyun heard this, she looked at him and shook her head again and again, and her mouth was full of bad water: "You men, all of you have bad water in your stomach!" ”
On the second day, an edict was issued to the world, and the monarch of Chu voluntarily belonged to Jiang and became a dependency of Jiang State.
In this way, except for the 30,000 Imperial Forest Army. There were almost no casualties, and the state of Chu was destroyed.
This was a blessing for the subjects of the Chu State, especially those Chu officials who were originally worried that they would be connected, and finally put their hearts back in their stomachs.
It didn't take long for Ling Xu to know Qi Hao's method of response.
On the third day of the promulgation of the edict, when the 300,000 army was at a loss and did not know where to go, Qi Hao personally went to the camp where the army was stationed and expressed his attitude in front of all the soldiers.
He first persuaded the soldiers to return to their hometown, and after hearing most of the voices that sneered at Chu Yu, he sighed and said: "The feelings of all the soldiers can be understood, but the state of Chu is your hometown after all. There must be relatives in the family who still stay in Chudi, even if you are dissatisfied with the monarch, you should also return to your hometown to be kind and filial. ”
His words moved many soldiers. After all, their parents, wives and daughters are all in Chudi, and if they can return, it will naturally be the best.
Qi Hao persuaded again, and there were two different voices in the army, one was in favor of returning, and the other was resolutely unwilling to submit to the enemy country like such a useless monarch.
Qi Hao finally sighed. gave the 300,000 army of Chu two choices: "Soldiers, if you want to return, Qi will send them to entanglement, if there are those who do not want to return, from now on, Qi will also regard them as the people of Qi, as for your worries, Qi also understands, but from the perspective of General Ling's kindness to the subjects of Chu State, after you go back, he will not be embarrassed." ”
Qi Hao's words were like a reassuring pill, stabilizing the morale of the 300,000 army.
The next day, people came one after another to register and receive the plate and return to Chudi.
Qing Er and Qing Yi didn't understand why Qi Hao had to go to such great lengths to persuade these soldiers to go back, and what made them even more incomprehensible was that he actually said good things for Ling Xu.
Regarding the doubts of the two, Qi Hao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Ling Xu asked the empress of Jiangguo **** and me to steal the mark of my family master, and take my Qi family's money for the army to go on the march, such a despicable villain, my Qi family is still impartial in everything, the 300,000 army wants to return, I will send it to be entangled, I want to stay, I will treat them like the people of Qi, you say, how can there be a good person like me in the world?" ”
Good?
Qing Yi and Qing Er both twitched the corners of their mouths, others didn't know, they knew very well, they saw Qi Hao put the dark seal and the seal of the family together, and then watched him show an unfathomable smile after he found out that the seal of the head of the family and the seal were stolen by Qi Jiayue.
Yes, smile.
Today's Qi Hao is no longer the one who can't smile with his face upright, but Qing Yi and Qing Er would rather him look as pale as before than be like now, with a smile on the corner of his mouth but a chilling smile.
After Qi Hao finished speaking, he glanced at the two of them, and raised the corners of his lips slightly, as if he was about to smile again: "You say, after I persuaded so many soldiers to return to their hometowns, will Ling Xu be grateful to me?" ”
According to the current situation, at least 70,000 or 80,000 of the 300,000 troops are going back to Chu, most of these people are attached to their homeland and have a loyal heart, once they return to Chu, it will be a trouble for Ling Xu who does not know when it will break out, to make Ling Xu grateful to Qi Hao, Qingyi and Qinger both shook their heads and said that it was impossible.
Qi Hao smiled slightly: "Although he hates me in his heart, he has to make a gesture of gratitude on his face, and besides, these soldiers who are going to leave are all loyal to the monarch, and they can't be used by me if they barely stay. ”
After saying that, he got up, no longer glanced at the soldiers who were in line to lead the plate, and turned to get into the carriage.
Qing Yi and Qing Er glanced at each other, and let out a long sigh in unison, this is the real purpose of the head of the family, go to the dross to extract the essence, and let these people who stay really become the army of the Qi family! (To be continued.) )
