Chapter 845: Surrender the king's weapon

(Everyone, it's still the same old saying, read the pinned comments and pay attention!) Waiting for you in the /public/public/account! )

After completely purging the coalition forces around Shangluo, Wei established a defensive line south of Shangluo.

But at this time, it became extremely difficult for Wei Jun to take another step forward.

Because further south, there is a hilly area, which is not conducive to the attack and killing of the Wei cavalry, which greatly weakens the advantage of the Wei army.

Just like the current Qin State, after experiencing the attack of the Wei State, the reason why it retains more territory than the Qi State is due to the mountain barrier in the western part of the Qin State.

The alliance of princes was mainly defensive, and the Wei army could not advance an inch, so the Wei army turned its attention back and locked its eyes on Shangluo.

To be more precise, Wei Wuji focused his attention on Shangluo, he had been under the banner of asking Ji Xiao for sin, so he should naturally go to Shangluo to take a look at it at this time.

Another point is that Shangluo is a good base for the Wei army, and can be used as a forward position for the Wei army to attack the alliance of princes.

In other words, after the Wei army was stationed, Shangluo would be transformed into a military fortress.

On May 25, the thirteenth year of the Marquis of Wei, 20,000 Wei troops came to Shangluo City, and the two generals who led the troops were both new in the army.

As heroes of the humble family who Wei Wuji single-handedly raised, Chen Feng and Wu Cheng were loyal to the monarch.

Therefore, when they learned that they would be stationed in Shangluo and become the king's guards, they were extremely excited.

Although this may result in the loss of the opportunity to make contributions on the front lines, it will be more beneficial to get closer to the monarch in this way.

Everyone knows that those henchmen who followed the monarch back then have now become the pillars of the country, and there is no shortage of titles and fields.

Don't look at Chen Feng and Wu Cheng have become generals, but their titles are not very high, and the gap between them and other generals is still a little big.

Therefore, when the two of them saw the city of Shangluo, they had only one thought in their hearts, that is, to do the errand assigned by the monarch.

Looking at the tall city in front of him, Wu Cheng said with emotion: "General Chen, this Luo Ke is really a king!" ”

Although Chen Feng next to him also had this idea in his heart, he said at this time: "Although it is the breath of a king, it is no longer the same ...... it used to be."

"The monarch is mighty, the Zhou room is already the sun is hanging in the West Mountain, and the one who really has the breath of a king should be my Great Wei!"

Listening to Chen Feng's words, Wu Cheng couldn't help but nod and said: "But that's the case, then let the two of me personally take down Shangluo today and dedicate this royal city to your lord!" ”

At this time, the gate of Shangluo City was still closed, and there were only a small number of soldiers guarding the city tower, and it was impossible for the Wei army to attack them and hold it.

"Therefore, the first thing is to enter Shangluo City first, and then you can control the palace and capture Ji Xiao alive!" Wu Cheng said resolutely.

Chen Feng nodded next to him, and then said to a prince beside him: "Send someone to tell the people on the city tower and ask them to open the city gate immediately, otherwise the soldiers will meet each other!"

After receiving the order, the prince immediately returned to the scout team he led, and then sent his soldiers to the gate of Shangluo City to deliver the message.

I have to say that even a few pawns in the Wei army have the same arrogance that surpasses ordinary people.

I saw one of the pawns rushing forward, and said to several generals who were watching from the city tower: "Listen to the people in the city, we will be ordered by the Marquis of Wei to enter Shangluo, and open the door quickly...... Otherwise, the city will be ruined and the jade will be burned! ”

The moment he said this was not an ordinary pride, this was the lair of the Zhou royal family, but he was shouted by a small pawn in front of the door.

This made several Zhou soldiers on the city tower deeply angry, but they could only stare dryly, because they really didn't dare to do it directly.

Hundreds of thousands of Wei troops were entrenched around Shangluo, and at this time, it was impossible to have the slightest chance of winning with the Wei people.

Even if it wasn't for their own lives, they had to consider the safety of the Son of Heaven, so they still endured it.

What's more, at this time, Chen Yao, who was a close minister of the Son of Heaven, stood in the city tower and gritted his teeth and said: "Order the whole army not to act rashly, let the people of Wei enter the city if they want to!" ”

Although the Son of Heaven expressed despair about the Wei army's entry into the city, and even had thoughts of supporting Gu, Chen Yao still thought that things would not happen like that.

In Chen Yao's view, the Wei people's entry into Shangluo this time is nothing more than humiliating the Son of Heaven and the royal family as they did at the beginning, but this time it is more excessive.

The Zhou room has been swept away, so it doesn't matter if you lose some face, it's better than losing your life in a war between the two sides.

Although Chen Yao's idea is very rebellious, it is an indisputable fact, because the Zhou family has no capital to resist at all, and there is no one at the beginning, let alone now.

Therefore, Chen Yao ordered: "Pass the order and let the Wei army enter the city!" ”

Several military officials wanted to argue about something, but before they could speak, Chen Yao preemptively spoke: "This is what Your Majesty meant, do you want to resist the decree?" ”

"Or do you want to provoke the Wei people and let them go all the way into the city and harm Your Majesty's life?"

The pros and cons were interrogated in two directions, completely blocking the mouths of these military officials, so that they could only obey Chen Yao's orders.

Just when Chen Yao was thinking about what scene he would encounter next, he was suddenly awakened by the noise under the city wall.

Chen Yao secretly said that it was not good, don't make a mess at this time, no one knows how serious the consequences will be.

Thinking of this, Chen Yao immediately rushed in the direction where the sound came from, where many soldiers had gathered, and the two sides were already tense.

After arguing fiercely with the people in the middle, Chen Yao picked up the surrounding soldiers and squeezed them into the middle, shouting as he walked: "What's the matter? ”

When he entered the core, he saw that several military officials in the middle were arguing with the Wei military officials, and listening carefully made Chen Yao's heart furious.

It turned out that the Wei army wanted to disarm the royal divisions in the city and asked them to disband on the spot.

In other words, it is to let all the soldiers who are loyal to the Zhou room present lay down their weapons and roll out of the city to be ordinary people.

This is unacceptable to the soldiers of the Zhou Chamber present, they are the last heartfelt soldiers of the Son of Heaven, and most of those who remain are die-hards.

"Why let us leave, this is Wang Ji, the room of the Son of Heaven......"

"It's just that we don't ...... go"

The Zhou soldiers were in a mess, and now they were extremely noisy, while the Wei soldiers watched it all silently.

The generals have already given them an order that if these people do not lay down their arms, then simply destroy them.

The king has the courage to ignore everything, and those of them who are courtiers should have the courage to push everything that is not subordinate.

Just when several captains of the Wei army exchanged glances and were about to start besieging and killing this group of Zhou Chambers, Chen Yao finally asked angrily: "When the Marquis of Wei entered Shangluo, he only let our army withdraw aside, and did not ask us to hand over our weapons to humiliate us...... You guys are so presumptuous! ”

"Could it be that you really have no blood and courage as a disciple of my Zhou family, and you dare not fight with your life?"

With Chen Yao's questioning, the soldiers of the Zhou room in the rear were also full of righteous indignation, all of them clenched their weapons in their hands, ready to play with the Wei army on the opposite side at any time.

Although the soldiers of the Zhou room were murderous one by one, they could not frighten the Wei soldiers who had been in battle for a long time, they were as calm as before, but they also clenched their hands tightly.

Then, I saw a Wei army captain stand up and say: "This lord, it's not that I want you to lay down your arms and disarm you, but what I mean by the Great Wei Monarch!" ”

"You can ignore what I say, but you dare to go against the will of the prince?" The lieutenant said in an aggravated tone.

The mention of Wei Wuji's name is a completely different deterrent, which is more effective than any threat.

"The prince has Zhao, those who follow me prosper and those who oppose me die, you have to think about it!" Captain Wei finally warned.

When he heard Captain Wei Jun say this, Chen Yao knew that this time was really different from the past, and Wei Wuji might really have to do something extreme and out of line when he went to Shangluo this time.

Therefore, Chen Yao really wanted to keep enough weapons so that he could feel a little safe.

But Chen Yao also knew that this was meaningless, and he couldn't make any waves in the torrent of the Wei army with more than 2,000 soldiers.

In desperation, Chen Yao made the final decision.

"The armies obeyed the order and laid down their arms...... Let's get out of town! ”

Chen Yao said this, and some of the military officials below couldn't hold it back, and they all said: "My lord, why is this so? ”

Chen Yao didn't explain, but said angrily: "Listen to the order, you will only die in vain here, why don't you leave a useful body for the next day?" ”

Hearing this, several military officials seemed to be convinced, and none of them were speechless.

After thinking for a while, a person bowed slightly to Chen Yao, picked up his sword and examined it for a long time, then threw it on the ground and turned to leave.

The collapse effect of one person was caused, and the other officers immediately laid down their weapons and left, and the rest of the soldiers who lost their leader also dropped their weapons and dispersed.

Chen Yao also knelt on the ground, bowed deeply in the direction of everyone's departure, and then shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, thank you, thank you!" ”

In any case, these people accompanied the Son of Heaven to the end, and they were qualified to accept this Son of Heaven thanks from Chen Yao's generation.

Looking at the scene in front of them, several Wei generals were overjoyed, no matter what they said, it is always good to surrender without a fight, at least there will be no brothers who will shed blood and sacrifice.

After finishing his joy, one of the military officials stepped forward, picked up a saber that had just been dropped by a Zhou military official, and then drew his own saber and examined it carefully.

Then he listened to him: "This lord, you see, the soldiers of the Zhou Chamber are so dilapidated, how can they stop my Great Wei Sharp Weapon?" ”

"It's a great thing that they can leave and they can live, so why should you feel bad about it?"

These words seemed to be comforting Chen Yao, but his tone was full of condescending disdain, extreme disdain for the royal court and the Son of Heaven.

Chen Yao couldn't help but stand up, ignoring the Wei soldiers who were surrounded by him, but walked straight in the direction of the forbidden city.

The soldiers left, and he, as the most loyal courtier of the Son of Heaven, should naturally accompany the Son of Heaven.

At this time, the Wei army had occupied the Shangluo Gate, and when Chen Yao rushed to the palace gate, he found that the palace gate happened to be taken over by the Wei army, which caused him to be unable to enter the palace to meet the Son of Heaven.
