Chapter 818: Two Treasures
In Thang Long City, in the palace of Annam, Sun Kewang pressed his sword to the throne of the emperor of the Li Dynasty.
Annam, a small country, has two sides and three swords, and when paying tribute to the Central Plains Dynasty, he is called King of Annam, and internally he is the emperor.
However, although he was called the emperor, the scale of the entire imperial city was far worse than that of the Central Plains, which was probably the size of a palace.
After the Western army broke through Thang Long City, Sun Kewang did not immediately attack the palace, but gave Li and Zheng Zhu three days to give them enough time to commit suicide.
Knowing that he could not escape death, Lord Zheng sent a letter to Sun Kewang to let the Zheng family go, so he did what Sun Kewang wanted him to do, forcing Li Weiyou, the emperor of the Li Dynasty, to death, and then wiped his neck and committed suicide.
At this time, Sun Kewang stepped forward, looked at the throne of the golden lacquer carved dragon, and slowly sat down, he touched the dragon head on the armrest of the dragon chair with both hands, and said with a smile, "Not bad!" β
When Sun Kewang entered the imperial city, the killing in Thang Long City had already begun, and the new ruler entered the city and drove the old ruler down, and he must undergo a purge, otherwise how to complete the transfer of power.
Sun Kewang has his own set of experience in governing the region, in short, killing the vested interests of the minority, but controlling the vast majority of wealth and resources, and winning over the majority of the common people, but poor.
The Western Army controls Annam, and the original ruling class must be cleansed, otherwise they will be pulled off their horses, and they still have money in their hands, and if they can be willing to see you sitting in his place, there will definitely be huge hidden dangers.
At the beginning of Sun Kewang's entry into the minister, he had already made up his mind to destroy the entire Li clan and the Zheng clan in order to get rid of future troubles.
An Emperor Jianwen tortured Zhu Di for decades, making him unable to feel at ease. The third prince of Zhu is like a ghost, entangled in the Qing Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, and from time to time someone plays the banner of the third prince to toss the Manchu Qing Dynasty for a while.
Sun Kewang knows the truth of cutting grass and eradicating the roots, either don't do it, or do it absolutely. At this point, he is somewhat similar to Gao Yihuan, and the reason why this is so may be because both of them are from rogue backgrounds, they are used to killing, and they don't have so much benevolence and morality.
However, he is not like Zhang Xianzhong, who blindly slaughters and relies entirely on violence, and the regime will definitely not be able to last for a long time.
Therefore, it was not the Western Army that captured and killed people in the city, but the army of the Wu clan, the lord of the fort, which he had incorporated, as well as the armies of Annan and Nanzhang.
He did this for a purpose, first, the Western Army did not understand the political ecology of Annan and did not know that those were powerful people, and second, to create hatred.
"The king, Thang Long City is determined, Annam is the territory of Daxi, please ask the king to settle down!" Xu Yixian saw that Sun Kewang sat down and came out to hug his fist.
Sun Kewang raised his eyebrows, "What, did those people go too far?" β
It was Xu Yixian's idea to let the army descend to clean up the ruling class in Annan, and then Sun Kewang would come forward and punish some people who killed indiscriminately to appease the people.
Now that he says this, then it must be because the Wu army's army has done something unusual.
"Indeed, it has expanded and begun to affect the people!" Xu Yixian said.
Sun Kewang frowned and said: "Then issue an order to calm the people, let the forbidden army maintain law and order, transfer the Wu family's soldiers and horses, and then let people collect the corpses of the Li lord and the Zheng family, and bury them with royal rites, and this king will personally worship to show mourning!" β
"Your Honor!" Xu Yixian hurriedly received the order, then saluted and retired, and walked towards the outside of the hall with his footsteps, the whole person seemed full of energy and vitality.
When Xu Yixian left the city, a general of the Western Army walked in and saluted: "King, General Liu is back!" β
"Oh?" Sun Kewang sat up straight and asked, "Where are the people and how are the harvests?" β
"General Liu was in Thanh Hoa, defeated Nguyen's army, captured a lot of things, and wanted to sacrifice them to the king. Now the people have entered the city! β
When Sun Kewang heard this, he stood up with a happy face, "Let him enter the palace to see him!" β
The main forces of Annam are the two major warlords of the TrαΊ§n and Nguyα» n clans, and now that the Truong clan has perished and the Nguyen clan has been defeated, the Western army has gained a firm foothold in Annam.
This made Sun Kewang very happy, and he was ready to take the north of Vietnam as a foundation, take a good rest for a year, allocate land, establish an official system, formulate a tax law, and when he had a surplus of grain, he would go south again to destroy the Nguyen clan and control the whole of Annam.
Not long after, Liu Zongmin, under the leadership of the guards, entered the main hall, followed by two generals, each carrying a tray.
"Qinghua is Zheng Jie's lair, did General Liu bring any treasure to this king?" Sun Kewang saw the two people behind him, and the tray he was holding seemed to be a little heavy.
Liu Zongmin saluted first, and then said with a smile: "King, this thing is better than treasure, it is a treasure that can help the king compete for the world!" β
Sun Kewang was a little unimpressed, and said perfunctorily: "That king is here to take a look at what kind of treasure it is." β
Liu Zongmin waved his hand smugly, "Present it to the king!" β
The two people behind him stepped forward with a tray, Sun Ke glanced at it, his eyes couldn't be taken off immediately, and he was surprised: "This is a self-generated firecracker!" β
Sun Keteng got up from the throne, picked up the Dutchman's flintlock pistol, looked at it carefully, and his eyes were full of surprise, "How did General Liu get this thing!" β
Liu Zongmin said proudly: "When the minister attacked Qinghua, he met the Ruan army going north, fought a big battle, defeated the Ruan army, and captured a team of white ghosts. This self-generated fire gun is their weapon, and the armor on the white ghost is also very powerful, made of several iron plates, which can block swords, spears, bows and arrows. The minister thought, if we can make such firearms and armor, it will not be difficult to dominate the world! β
"White ghosts?" Sun Kewang wondered.
Liu Zongmin thought for a while, "Oh, Wu Gongyi said that they are Hongmaoyi, coming from the sea!" β
Sun Kewang nodded, thinking of the Hongyi cannon, he immediately understood, and he immediately asked, "Did those Hongmao Yi kill?" β
"Didn't kill! He was brought back with the Nguyen prisoners. β
"Good! It is said that in Gao Yihuan's army, there are many Francophone people. Presumably, Wei's firearms are powerful, and they are inseparable from those Francophone people. Now the Lone King has the Red Hair Yi in his hand, and the Franc cannon is obviously not as good as the red-clothed cannon, and the Franc machine man is not as good as the Red Hair Yi. From this point of view, this king has every chance to surpass Gao Yihuan. Sun Kewang looked at Liu Zongmin and laughed: "General Liu, you can be regarded as having made a great contribution." In the future, you will deal with military affairs with Liu Wenxiu and Ainengqi! β
Liu Zongmin raised his eyebrows, and his face showed joy, "Thank you to the king!" β
Sun Kewang touched the flintlock pistol, looked at the Dutchman's plate armor again, and was a little in love, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Have you seized the medicine?" This king wants to test his might! β
Liu Zongmin said: "The minister will let people send it." β
