Hearing this, Wei Zhongquan's expression was a little solemn.

Under the influence of Yang Mu, he also roughly knew the current strategy of Cangguo, it was easy to lay down a piece of land, but it was much more difficult to make the people of a piece of land identify as the people of Cangguo.

For ordinary people, for example, the more than 300 cities that were conquered before, the people almost did not suffer much, and the war between the armies did not affect them.

For this part of the people, in the future, they only need to be educated by the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Education, reduce some taxes, and within a few years, they will be able to acquiesce to the fact that they are Cangguo people, pay grain and taxes, and enlist in the army, everything is logical.

However, once the people suffer, especially because of the siege of the Cang army, then this is an unhealable wound, which will accompany them for the rest of their lives, I am afraid that after decades, they will not be able to forget the trauma brought to them by the Cang army, and a bad one can evolve into an opposition force.

The so-called opposition forces do not necessarily oppose the imperial court with a sword, but incite the people among the people and propagate remarks unfavorable to the imperial court, which will bring great trouble to the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Education in the future.

And the best way to put an end to this is to kill.

There is no threat to the dead.

But the massacre was absolutely impossible!

Wei Zhongquan had reason to believe that as long as he allowed his soldiers to do evil in the cave city, what awaited him would be a severe punishment from His Majesty the Emperor, and it was even possible to kill him.

"Looks like we're going to have to take the city as soon as possible."

Wei Zhongquan muttered, then sighed, and ordered a few heralds to shout outside the city and surrender to the soldiers defending the city.

On the first day, there was no movement.

The next day, the nobles who had just escaped from the city revealed some news, the court was already panicked, the emperor of the cave country was almost crazy, and his temper became more and more irritable in the past few days, and he did not trust the generals who defended the city, and a large number of generals were replaced in the past two days.

The cave city is crumbling.

In view of this situation, Wei Zhongquan consulted with the generals and decided to add another fire to it.

On August 18, Wei Zhongquan personally rode his war horse, shouted outside the city to persuade him to surrender, and released a major news - the White Tiger Legion is coming to help, and the day of arrival is the time to attack the city, and all the monarchs and soldiers of the Dong Kingdom will be slaughtered at that time!

As long as the soldiers who surrendered before this time were disbanded immediately after the war, they were treated as ordinary people, and they were given money to go home, and the generals and officials could at least be a rich man for the rest of their lives and would not be persecuted.

Wei Zhongquan's shout was like a thunderclap on the ground.

On the castle tower, the defenders exchanged heads.

For the war in the past few months, in fact, many people know it well.

Dong Guo betrayed its allies first and took the initiative to provoke a war, and in the name of righteousness, Cangguo was only counterattacking, and there was nothing to blame.

To blame, you can only blame the crown prince and ministers of the imperial court for making such a stupid decision, which brought a deep disaster to the cave country.

When the news reached the court, the emperor of the cave country directly weakened, and he did not sit firmly on the dragon chair and fell down.

"Cangjun, do you really say that?" The Emperor of the Cave Kingdom, who was helped up and relieved, asked dejectedly.

"This is what Wei Zhongquan, the chief general of the Cangjun Army, said, Your Majesty...... Are we ......" a general bowed respectfully, and stopped talking.

"Kaesong surrendered?" The Emperor of the Cave Kingdom laughed: "Marquis Min, Marquis Min, you have been by my side for more than thirty years, is it true that in your eyes, I am really a reluctant and greedy king?" Kaesong, huh...... The king of the dead country, even the last dignity will be trampled on? ”

"Your Majesty...... With all due respect, please consider your majesty for the sake of the clan......"

Imperial clan?

A trace of heartache and guilt flashed in the eyes of the Emperor of the Cave Kingdom.

Four hundred years since the founding of the country, the ancestors have overcome difficulties especially in front of them, there are tens of thousands of royal clans, and countless princes and concubines in the harem.

Since ancient times, the imperial capital of a country has fallen, and the royal family will be slaughtered.

Now, this scene is going to be staged in the cave country.

Let's be buried......

The Emperor of the Cave Kingdom sighed secretly, and slowly ordered: "Marquis Min, pass on my will, let the defenders divide into two routes, take the princes and grandsons all the way to the north to break through, and it will be safe when they arrive in the Jin Kingdom." ”

Minhou was shocked: "Your Majesty! Let the 200,000 army cover the royal family to break through, this ...... That's not quite right......"

"Do it, and let them be loyal to the cave country for the last time." The Emperor of the Cave Kingdom silently closed his eyes and turned his back to everyone.

At this moment, no one can understand the sadness in his heart.

Perhaps, this will be the last time he will call the shots.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of a long sword unsheathed.

"Minhou, what are you going to do!"

"Bold! You dare to kill the king! ”

"Put your sword down!"

"Your Majesty beware!"

The guards in the hall reacted quickly and pulled out their weapons one by one.

The Emperor of the Cave Kingdom slowly opened his eyes and looked sideways: "You want to kill me?" ”

"Your Majesty forgives your sins, and the ministers also have wives and children."

Min Hou's voice was cold, and the long sword rested on the cave emperor's neck, cutting through the skin, and a trace of blood flowed down the tip of the sword.

"Qiang—"

"Qiang—"

"Qiang—"

There were a few more sounds of drawing their swords, and the rest of the generals in the hall also drew their swords one after another, echoing with Minhou.

Inside the temple, the situation is delicate.

"Do you think this can threaten me?" The Emperor of the Cave Kingdom turned around and laughed: "My life and death have long been put aside, and the so-called 200,000 troops are all disloyal and destined to be martyred for the Cave Kingdom!" ”

Marquis Min was worried in his heart, the emperor was right, no matter what the situation was, there were always some generals loyal to the emperor in this palace, and this holy decree would be passed out immediately.

Sure enough, immediately a few generals, under the protection of the guards, walked outside the hall.

Several generals who had echoed Minhou before retreated outside the hall while on guard.

After that, there was a bloody civil strife.

In the palace, the Praetorian Guards and the personal guards fought, and then a group of generals who learned the news led their troops into the palace.

Even the Emperor of the Cave Kingdom did not expect that one of his holy decrees became the last straw that crushed the 200,000 defenders, and the situation was completely out of control.

Soon, the bloody scuffle spread outside the palace.

The soldiers who advocated the surrender of Kaesong, and some of the troops defending the city, launched a tragic battle.

Gradually, it evolved into a battle for the city gate.

Listening to the sound of fighting in the city, Wei Zhongquan knew that the time had come, and immediately ordered the siege of the city.

"Knock knock—"

"Knock knock—"

"Knock knock—"

"Woo-"

"Woo-"

The drums of war were beating, and the sound of trumpets was heard throughout the four fields.

Siege engines were pushed up the moat, and countless soldiers lifted siege ladders and laid them on the moat, and then climbed the city wall after crossing them.

On the city wall, a small number of soldiers were resisting, but after only a dozen breaths, they were forced back by the overwhelming crossbow arrows.

This time, there was no difficulty in attacking the city.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire Blue Dragon Legion only paid the price of a few casualties, and easily climbed the city tower, and then called the city gate from the inside.

The Blue Dragon Legion is in!
