"The things in Quanzhou must not be what the northerners want."

Wen Zhong is very sure of this, Xu Shiyang may kill the clan, but he will definitely not implicate the ordinary people in Quanzhou.

"How?"

Empress Dowager Yang asked.

She actually didn't care whether she surrendered or not, after all, it seemed that Da Zhou was indeed desperate now, but as a mother, Empress Dowager Yang had to fight for her children.

There is only one thing she must be sure of: after surrendering, the northerners will not harm her children!

Otherwise, she would rather resist to the end, or continue to run away, and take refuge with Dali.

"This ......" Wen Zhong and the others couldn't think of a way that could be accepted by the Northern Dynasty for a while.

As a loser, ask the winner to give a safety guarantee, and if you ask for too much, others will be afraid that they will be impatient, and the guarantee that should have been given will be canceled.

But with fewer requirements, how can this orphan and widow be at ease?

"My request is very simple, kill Pu Shouqi!"

What Empress Dowager Yang thought was to let the northerners kill the traitors who took refuge in them, so that if others wanted to follow suit in the future, they should think in advance whether the northerners would unload the mill and kill the donkey.

And as soon as Pu Shougen died, even if the northerners repented and took their children to see the ancestors of the Great Zhou, they could finally say that they had avenged the Quanzhou clan.

Wen Zhong and the others hesitated slightly, in their opinion, the Northern Dynasty should not kill Pu Shougen, not because this person should not be killed, but because this person surrendered on his own initiative, and expressed his loyalty by killing the Great Zhou clan, if the Northern Dynasty killed him, it would make those who rebelled against Zhou and China feel uneasy.

But there seems to be no better way.

Bao Zheng took the lead in agreeing: "The minister thinks that this matter can be mentioned in the reply." ”

As a famous minister who is good at criminal names, Bao Zheng's first thought is that Pu Shougen's slaughter of Quanzhou did not only kill the clan, but Quanzhou can be determined to be the people of Yanhuang in the land of Yanhuang.

If you insist on saying that the law, whether it is according to the law of Zhou or the law of Hua, it should be beheaded, maybe you can start from this aspect and persuade the Northern Dynasty to kill him?

"The minister seconded the proposal." Wen Zhong didn't think as much as Bao Zheng thought, he just felt that it was better to test than to do nothing.

……

Coming out of the temporary line, Wen Zhong asked Bao Zheng with a little uneasiness:

"Master Bao, do you think the Northern Dynasty will kill Pu Shouqi for the clan of the previous dynasty?"

"Probably not, but it's not impossible." Bao Zheng replied: "We don't need to mention the Quanzhou clan, we just ask the Northern Dynasty to make decisions for the people of Quanzhou who died in vain." Maybe Xu Shiyang can agree. ”

"And ......." Bao Zheng hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Lord Wen, if the Northern Dynasty doesn't kill that Pu Shougen, are you willing to go to Dali?" ”

"Don't go!" Wen Zhong replied firmly: "If we go to Dali and take refuge with outsiders, it is equivalent to confirming the statement that Dazhou is not Huaxia Zhengshuo, so we must not go to Dali!" I'd rather die in battle here! ”

The Northern Dynasty likes to use the Great Zhou Dynasty as a vassal to the Jurchen Tartars, and the destruction of the Jurchens themselves to endorse the legitimacy of their regime.

This is the bottom line that Wen Zhong can't agree to.

"Then so be it, if the Great Zhou Kingdom needs someone to accompany the burial, it is better for Bao and Lord Wen to go and explain to the ancestors and ancestors of the Great Zhou."

Bao Zheng said calmly:

"Don't kill more people, enough is enough."

……

In fact, at this time, the forward troops of the Chinese army moving south were not far from the small court of the Great Zhou.

The messenger who sent the message to the north only walked a hundred and fifty miles when he encountered a group of Chinese cavalry who were exterminating the bandits, and after the envoy made clear his intention to the leading officer, the captain immediately dispatched twenty cavalry and escorted them to Xu Shiyang.

At this time, Xu Shiyang had just finished dealing with the affairs of Quanzhou and arrived in Yong'an County, where the small imperial court had stopped.

When he saw the reply, he said to the messenger with a complicated expression: "I can't hand over Pu Shouqi's head to you. ”

"Your Highness, I heard that you have always called the Han people Yanhuang nobles, the people of heaven." The envoy also wanted to persuade with his three-inch tongue: "That Pu Shouqi harmed 60,000 Han people in Quanzhou, can't you avenge the Yanhuang nobles?" ”

"Ah, I suppose, sir, you misunderstood." Xu Shiyang replied: "Avenging the people of Quanzhou and handing over Pu Shouqi's head to you are two different things, because I have already scraped him and thrown all the bones and flesh into the pig trough, where can I go to find a head for you?" ”

"Huh?" The messenger didn't believe his ears: "Your Highness has already killed Pu Shougen?" ”

"Yes, not only him, but I have ordered the killing of all the Pars in the country." Xu Shiyang said lightly: "If Mr. doesn't believe it, you will know when you go to Quanzhou in the future - all the survivors are prison officers." ”

"The minister is the Quanzhou Zhao clan and the full name of the people, thank you to His Royal Highness the Prince!"

This envoy probably has something to do with Quanzhou, after realizing that Xu Shiyang had directly avenged the people of Quanzhou, he didn't say a word and bowed down in front of Xu Shiyang.

"Get up, I don't like kneeling."

徐世杨 says:

"Maybe you don't believe it, but what I said is true, how can the Chinese nobles tolerate humiliation? The search for Pars to avenge Quanzhou is to prove it. ”

"I don't care if your little court will be grateful to me for this, anyway, you are already like this, aren't you? Also, go back and say, surrender quickly, I don't have time to wait, I have to deal with the occupation of Qin, Lian and Yong by the Jiaozhi thieves. ”

Xu Shiyang now doesn't even have the strength to be angry, Tubo invaded Sichuan Province and Jiaozhi attacked Gui Province, causing a lot of killings, especially the three prefectures of Gui Province, and it is estimated that hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians have suffered losses.

The losses brought by these foreign thieves made Xu Shiyang's propaganda that this unification war was an internal war with the fewest dead in the world completely ruined.

He had never expected that those small countries in the south would have such the courage to provoke the tiger whiskers of China.

Do they really think that Huaxia will not avenge the Zhou people?

Okay, no matter what they think, since the matter has come to this, let these fools go with those Parsmen!

……

Republic early October 1795 3

The Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Prime Minister Wen Zhong, Privy Envoy Bao Zheng and other last subjects surrendered to the Chinese army with the little emperor Xiangxing.

The Great Zhou Dynasty, which lasted for two hundred years, was officially declared extinct.

However, it was not Xu Shiyang, the crown prince of China, who came to accept the surrender of the Great Zhou, because after receiving the envoy last time, he immediately set off and went south on the sail battleship of the navy, ready to attack Jiaozhi.

The one who accepted the surrender of the small court was Xu Daizhuo, the imperial grandson who had to come in a special hurry.

People speculate that this is probably one of the expressions of the crown prince's establishment of the status of the crown prince, after all, accepting the final surrender of the Great Zhou is a very good political capital.

On the other hand, the subjects of Sichuan, Gui and Guangdong provinces, who were still flying the banner of the Great Zhou, surrendered to the nearest Chinese army when they heard the news.

By the end of 1795, China had finally completed the great cause of national unification.
