Chapter 610: Zhao Kang is destroyed
At this time, Zhao Chen and Zhao Rui led hundreds of officials, kneeling on the cold ground.
Looking up at Ji Xuanling, who was sitting on horseback and as steady as Mount Tai, he couldn't help but think a lot.
They are either descendants of the dignified Zhao Kang Empire, or they are the prime ministers of the old dynasty, with high and powerful positions and prominent statuses.
Not so long ago, Zhao Chen was still the emperor.
High up, admired by thousands of people.
Now he groveled, ignoring the dignity of the emperor, kneeling and waiting for Ji Xuanling to lead the troops to take over the city.
Ji Xuanling was majestic, sitting on the back of the horse, staring at him with a smile in his eyes, without the slightest sign of dismounting.
As the emperor, Zhao Chen's heart is like a mirror, Ji Xuanling is giving him a horse, and the old ministers of the Zhao Kang Empire.
Tell the world through his actions that since then, there will be no Zhao Kang in the world.
The state of Qin took its place and rose to prominence in the west.
Alas!
Zhao Chen sighed helplessly.
Inexhaustible suffering and humiliation.
He stepped out, leaned over and bowed, and said, "Zhao Chen, the criminal minister, I implore the king to take over Luo'an City and take over Zhao Kang's ruined country. ”
As he spoke, he took out the jade seal of the country from his arms and gave it to him.
At this point, he surrendered completely.
hopes that with hundreds of officials surrendered, Ji Xuanling can keep him safe and give him glory and wealth.
What's more, since he has already surrendered, if he doesn't follow Ji Xuanling's wishes, how can he live peacefully when he goes to Luoyi in the future?
Seeing the emperor of the Zhao Kang Empire in the past, the beggar seemed to kneel on the ground, begging for mercy in a low voice, Ji Xuanling felt great satisfaction in his heart.
Signaling to the accompanying generals, he took the jade seal of the country, glanced at Zhao Chen, Zhao Rui, and the former ministers of the Zhao Kang Empire, raised his horsewhip and said, "Get up and talk!" ”
"Get up and talk!"
In just five words, like a hot soldering iron falling on his cheeks, Zhao Chen felt that his face was hot, and he couldn't help but feel inexplicable anger.
No one had ever dared to speak to him like that.
No one dared not to take him seriously.
Anger was about to attack, Zhao Chen saw his situation and had to endure his anger.
Since he has descended to Qin, he is no longer the emperor of Zhao Kang.
In the future, I am afraid that I will have to learn to adapt to the life of being shouted at.
Zhao Chen got up, turned his head to look at the city wall array, and put down the defenders of the soldiers, turned back to Ji Xuanling and said: "King, the criminal minister has ordered the defenders in the city to assemble, and from now on, the defenders in the city belong to the king, and they are at the king's disposal.
It is rumored that the Qin army was blocked in the south, and the king took over the territory of Dakang, so he might as well send elite troops to set off from the old land of Zhao Kang, so that he could quietly reach Jianzhou and the north of Rongzhou, and achieve the effect of attacking him by surprise.
Spend the least price to recover Jianzhou, Rongzhou, and Chuanzhou in the shortest possible time. ”
Zhao Chen has always had great ambitions, as well as strategies and strategies, but unfortunately God does not bless him.
After succeeding to the throne, the military power of the imperial court deteriorated, and although he had good strategies and ideas, he never failed to achieve his wishes.
Now that Qin has been surrendered, the Qin soldiers are strong and strong, and the Qin army is invincible.
simply told Ji Xuanling about his plan to recover the south, and won Ji Xuanling's favor, so as to ensure his own safety.
Moreover, the Mu brothers washed the imperial city in blood, and such a sea of blood feud did not repay the ancestors and ancestors.
On horseback, Ji Xuanling raised his head and glanced at the defenders on the city wall, nodded and said, "This king will consider your suggestion." He then waved his whip and signaled the Qin army to enter the city.
Ji Xuanling was willing to take the risk and accept Zhao Chen under the nose of Zhao Jun, and Zhao Rui asked to surrender, in addition to peeking at Zhao Kang's remaining territory, he also hoped that by replacing Dakang, Qin would become a great power in the west and achieve a status equal to Daqian.
In addition, starting from Zhao Kang's old land is indeed a shortcut, which can deal a devastating blow to Jianzhou, Rongzhou, and Chuanzhou controlled by the Mu brothers in the north.
Reduce the casualties of the Qin army that advanced to Jianzhou, and also shorten the combat time.
Ensure that Daqian's dragoons fought quickly in the south, and when they marched west to attack Qin, the Qin army was already in a state of vigilance.
Otherwise, with the decaying Zhao Kang Empire alone, it would be impossible for him to come to Luo'an City to surrender at the risk of offending Gongzi Ang and offending Chu Yanhan and Zhao Wei.
The Qin army entered the city and took over the city.
Instead of the defenders at the head of the city, they were on guard against the elites of the Six Kingdoms from the north.
The news of the Qin army's takeover of Luo'an City spread quickly like a spring breeze.
Outside the north gate, the Zhao army, which was about to move, received the news that it had to temporarily withdraw in the face of the Qin army that was waiting on the city wall.
Soon, the news was sent back to the coalition camp.
Ji Xuanling acted decisively, and the Qin army marched so fast that almost all the coalition generals were caught off guard.
They were unwilling, angry, but it was too late.
Ji Xuanling wanted to take over Luo'an City, and sent generals to contain the coalition forces as soon as possible.
All the generals, including Gongzi Ang, were like mirrors, and this time the duck flew away from under their noses.
In the future, there will be no such opportunity.
If you are unwilling to forcibly go south and mobilize the army against the Qin army, it will not only mean a complete break with the Qin state, but also a battle to pull out the teeth of the tiger.
The coalition forces may not win.
Even if the generals are outside, the military orders are not subject to them.
In such a desperate military action, Gongzi Ang and other generals did not dare to make decisions on their own.
Full of anger and nowhere to vent, Gongzi Ang is dumb and eats Coptis chinensis and has suffering.
Clenched his iron fists, gritted his teeth and said resentfully: "Zhao Chen surrendered to Qin, Luo'an City changed hands, and the pace of the coalition's southern expedition came to an abrupt end. At present, we are forced to be stationed here, and we must report the battle situation on the front line and the changes in the battle situation back to China, whether to cut down Qin or change land in other places, and let the kings decide.
Otherwise, everyone will have to stay here for a long time to defend the fruits of victory. ”
The generals agreed to Gongzi Ang's proposal and had to write a letter back to China.
At noon, Lu Linxuan's legions, which were hovering outside Luo'an City, all arrived in Luo'an City, and Lu Linxuan was temporarily appointed to handle the affairs of Luo'an City.
Soon, Shen Tuxiu from the north returned with his army and stationed in the south of the city. At dusk, Wu Jiling led the army back and led the army to garrison the north of the city.
For a time, near the small Luo'an City, seventy or eighty thousand Qin troops who were good at fighting were gathered.
Anyone or any force raising troops to invade the territory is undoubtedly an act of moths to the fire and self-destruction.
Lu Linxuan's handling of the affairs of Luo'an City was to maintain order in the city, so as not to cause panic among the people in the city when the Qin army entered the city, or people with ulterior motives would take the opportunity to cause chaos.
The most important thing is to deal with the large number of defenders in the city.
The defenders are loyal to Zhao Chen, Zhao Rui, even if they surrender to Qin, if they are not handled properly, they may still cause mutinies and cause unnecessary crises.
In order to appease the defenders, Lu Linxuan set up a banquet in the army to reward the defenders who surrendered to Qin, and announced at the banquet that a large number of young soldiers were all incorporated into the Qin army, and the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled all withdrew from the army, either on errands in the city, or unloaded and returned to the field.
The Qin State distributed money, grain, and land to them, ensuring that they would have no worries about their lives.
This move was extremely safe, and it barely caused much movement, and tens of thousands of old Dakang troops were like a trickle of water integrated into the Qin army everywhere.
