Chapter 1387 Eradicate the Surrenderers

Wu Guo, Gusu City.

The Wu-Yue coalition army was defeated on the western front of the Yue Kingdom, and Wang Zhengwen led the troops to recover the Wu State.

Wang Zhengwen has not yet returned to the court with his troops, and the bad news has been transmitted back to the court in advance.

When Wang Zhengwen led his troops back to Gusu City, Han Yanxi led his troops back to Yan State, and the Yan army took the opportunity to march eastward and arrived at the imperial city with him.

The surrender of the Vietnamese army was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, alarming the country of Wu, making the river surround the city, and the people were in panic all day.

In the palace, when Zhao Yanyu and Zhao Anran, the third prince of the East China Sea, were discussing defense, they suddenly heard the news of Han Yanxi's surrender, and Zhao Yanyu's face was instantly cold and cold.

Furious, he said: "Shameless, Han Yanxi, this shameless old horseman, when it is critical, he will turn his back on Wu Guo."

It must be known that Wu and Yue are united, and many areas of Wu are defended, and the Vietnamese army is in a state of staggered teeth, and the Vietnamese army is not vigilant about surrendering, like removing the fig leaf on the Wu army, and exposing the soft points of the Wu army in an instant.

The king of the East China Sea had a guess that Han Yanxi led the troops to evacuate privately in Wang Zhengwen, and he couldn't resist the Yan army's sharp edge to lead the troops to surrender, but he never expected that Han Yanxi surrendered without warning in just a few days.

This move made many Wu troops in the peak of the Yan army.

Seeing Zhao Yanyu's demeanor, the King of the East China Sea had a complicated expression, and said: "Father, the Yan army is coming from the east, and our army is very likely to be exposed to the blade of the Yan army.

"It's nature!"

Zhao Yanyu said coldly, the Yue State surrendered, the Chu State was divided, and only the Wu State was left in the south with a barely complete territorial integrity and a complete system.

Even if the Yan army was invincible, Zhao Yanyu still hoped to fight Lin Feng to the death, even if the Wu Kingdom was destroyed in the end, he would have a clear conscience.

The fist smashed the dragon case, Zhao Yan took a long breath, stared at the king of the East China Sea and said: "Send the inner servants to immediately summon the ministers into the palace and summon Wang Zhengwen into the palace."

"Yes!"

The king of the East China Sea bowed his head, turned around and hurried away.

Zhao Yanyu raised his hand and rubbed his cheeks, and his eyes looked at the map of Wu on the screen not far away.

Compared with the Yue country, the territory of the Wu country is broader, the money and food are more abundant, the population is more, and the most important thing is that the rivers and lakes in Wu are intertwined, far from the Yue country, and the Chu country can compare, which is the unique advantage of the Wu country.

The Yan army is sharp, and there are few rivals on the battlefield. The Wu State Naval Division is still unstoppable, and it has always been in naval battles and water battles, and even the State of Chu has to be afraid of three points.

Zhao Yan's heart is like a mirror, to change the passive situation of Wu State, the only way to learn from each other's strengths and make up for weaknesses is to hit the soft underbelly of the Yan Army hard, once it doesn't work twice, twice it doesn't work three times, Wu Guo's water division is not unprecedented, after all, it is the nemesis of the Yan Army.

Of course, Zhao Yanyu also knew that if the Yue country surrendered, the Yue army would inevitably follow Han Yanxi to surrender, Yue Yunshan, Mu Junchen, Qin Qiong, Qin Yue and others, these generals who were good at naval divisions, would definitely be promoted and reused by Lin Feng.

Frankly speaking, in the early days of the water battle between Wu and Yan, it was completely a battle between the Wu and Vietnamese armies, and at that time, the Wu army easily defeated the Vietnamese army by virtue of the terrain advantage and the advantage of warships.

If the Yan army loses the assistance of the Vietnamese army, it is not expected to gain something in the dog-toothed waters of the Wu State.

In contemplation, officials continued to arrive in the interior of the imperial study.

These officials learned in advance that Wang Zhengwen was defeated in the Yue Kingdom and led the troops back in a hurry, and many officials also learned that Han Yanxi had returned to the Yan State.

Walking into the imperial study, they all looked tense, like a bowstring that was full, and those who were close to each other, talking to each other, whispering, and discussing countermeasures.

Most of the officials firmly believed that Wu Guo was in a safe corner, and Emperor Yan led his troops to attack in full swing, so they would definitely not let Wu Guo live in peace.

In this battle, only the ministers are united and fight to the death, and they may be able to use the terrain and fighting spirit of Wu to hinder the pace of the Yan army and expel the Yan army from the country.

After about two cups of tea, the Manchu officials gathered in the imperial study, and although their voices were very low, the inside of the imperial study still seemed small and noisy.

During the conversation, Zhao Yanyu raised his head, his unconfident eyes, glanced at the ministers in the imperial study, clenched his fists and coughed twice, signaling the ministers to be quiet.

Lang said: "Not long ago, General Wang led the troops to defeat on the western front of the Yue Kingdom, and the Yue Jun Han Yanxi led the troops to surrender to the Yan State in order to survive, I believe that soon the Yan Emperor will take the Yue Army Naval Division as the vanguard, and the Yan Army Cavalry will kill the Wu State, you Aiqing, whether it is a battle or a surrender, you can talk about it!"

Hearing this, the ministers were shocked and surprised.

Wu is in danger, the emperor summoned the ministers to come, should discuss how to resolve the Yan army, how to ask whether to fight or surrender, so as to affect the momentum of the court, the momentum of the army.

In the imperial study, the ministers looked at each other, and no one could figure out what kind of mentality Zhao Yanyu had, let alone answer his question easily.

When he was young, Zhao Yanyu noticed that the ministers were silent, and said loudly: "Left and right imperial envoys, in the past, the two of you had the best oral talents, but now, why are you dumb, tell me what you really think?"

The left and right imperial envoys are old ministers of Wu State, who are old and old, and their bodies are quite tough.

I felt that the eyes of everyone in the imperial study were as if countless sharp arrows were on the bowstring, all focused on them.

Wang Wenchang, the imperial envoy of the left, moved his pace, slowly walked out of the court, hugged the court and saluted Zhao Yan, and said: "Your Majesty, the state of Wu rose from the coast of the East China Sea, experienced hundreds of years of war, and has today's status, even if the Yan army is strong and the Yan Emperor is about to remove the obstacles to unifying the world, we should stick to the end."

"That's right, Your Majesty, compared to the divided Chu State, the Yue State that has been trampled by the Yan army many times, the Wu State has not been invaded by the Yan army so far, and no half inch of territory has been occupied by the Yan army, the imperial court has an army and food, so it is time to try to fight hard with the Yan army." An Yunqi, the right imperial historian, walked out of the court, stood beside Wang Wenchang, and said excitedly.

"Well, if you don't surrender and insist on fighting to the death, then, Wang Aiqing, An Aiqing, talk about your strategy to resist the enemy." Zhao Yanyu heard the voice, his face did not change, as if he was dissatisfied with the answer of the two, and asked unceremoniously.

Wang Wenchang and An Yunqi, as the imperial envoys, are responsible for supervising hundreds of officials on weekdays, accepting hundreds of officials on behalf of the emperor, managing important national atlases, and drafting edicts on behalf of the imperial court.

With little or no contact with the military, let alone strategy and tactics, Zhao Yanyu suddenly asked them how to break the enemy, which was really difficult for the two of them.

For a while, the left and right imperial envoys fell into silence, as if they were thinking about a good way to defend against the enemy.

In the imperial study, it was quiet, and the ministers were like sitting on pins and needles, panicked.

Zhao Yanyu swept his gaze over the ministers and continued to ask: "Since the imperial envoy doctor has no strategy to break the enemy, General Ye Liufan, will you talk about battle or surrender?"

Before Ye Liufan entered the court, he expected to meet the emperor and must give him an explanation, so on the way to the palace, he was constantly thinking about good strategies, and now he has a rough outline, which can be put into practice only if it is refined.

At this moment, when asked about the future of Wu State, Ye Liufan strode out, his armor sounded, stood beside Wang Wenchang, bowed to Zhao Yanyu, and said forcefully with Chao Wat: "Your Majesty, victory and defeat are a common thing for soldiers, in the past ten years, Wu Guonan and Northern War, victory and defeat are considerable, in addition to the casualties of the soldiers, the combat power of the whole army has been greatly improved in the battle, and the people of Wu are more interested in the court.

Today, in the face of the invasion of the Yan army, the last general firmly believes that only by making full preparations and competing with the Yan army can the national strength of the Wu State be demonstrated, so that the Yan army and the Yan Emperor can understand the determination and courage of the monarchs and ministers of the Wu State to resist the invasion of foreign enemies."

"Your Majesty, what the general said is right, fight, fight to the death with the Yan army."

"Your Majesty, the last general is willing to lead the troops to garrison the border of Wu and not let the Yan army step across the border for half a step!"

"Your Majesty, the last general would rather die in battle than surrender on his knees!"

....

Ye Liufan expressed the idea of persevering to the end, and many generals in the army echoed it, agreeing with Ye Liufan and Yan Jun's undying attitude.

Zhao Yanyu bowed slightly, still unchanged, and said coldly: "General, Wang Zhengwen has led his troops to fight with the Yan army many times, but he has been defeated by different generals of Yan State many times, no one in Wu knows the generals of Yan State better than General Wang, do you still insist on fighting to the death?"

"Your Majesty, the Yan generals are fierce, and the last general prides himself on being an idle person, not to mention that the Yan army has not yet invaded the Wu country, even if the Wu country is unfortunately occupied by the Yan army in the future, the last general still insists on expelling the invaders with limited troops." Ye Liufan turned around and glanced at Wang Zhengwen, who was standing among the generals, still insisting on his own thoughts.

"Your Majesty, I, Wu Guoerlang, without the bear people, we will never surrender."

"Your Majesty, time is running out, let's dispatch troops!"

"Your Majesty, even if we lose the first battle with the Yan army, we still have a chance to regroup and make a comeback by relying on the favorable terrain of the Wu State."

Many generals agreed with Ye Liufan's proposal, and they were all excited, eager to get Zhao Yanyu's consent on the spot, and rushed to the border in advance to deploy defenses while the Yan army had not yet entered.

Zhao Yanyu got up, walked to the front of the jade steps, and said, "Could it be that the court is full of dead war factions, and there are no officials who are willing to surrender to the Yan army?" I don't believe that anyone is willing to surrender to the Yan Kingdom when the war is unfavorable, so I hurriedly came out to express my thoughts.

If the country of Wu wants to continue, it can't rely on one voice alone!"

With Zhao Yanyu's guidance, in the imperial study, more than a dozen civil and military generals stood up, talked eloquently, expressed their thoughts, advocated peace, and even advocated surrender.

With the proposal to sue for peace, the surrendered Wenchen military generals fell, and Zhao Yanyu, who stood up in front of the jade steps, slapped the dragon case and shouted: "Han Yanxi surrendered, and led the close ministers to persuade him to surrender, resulting in the annexation of the Yue Kingdom by the Yan army in an instant, in order to prevent the Wu State from repeating the mistakes of the past, I will never allow the existence of people who are greedy for life and fear of death in the court, let alone allow them to be like moths and mixed in the military generals of the Wu State."

The will is unpredictable!

The will is unpredictable!

Zhao Yanyu changed dramatically, beyond the expectations of the ministers, and his strong attitude was even more deterrent to not killing officials, especially those officials who tried to seek peace and surrender, deeply aware of the seriousness of the problem****** changed their attitude, and when they proposed to Zhao Yanyu, unexpectedly, Zhao Yanyu had already acted in advance, and shouted: "Where is the inner servant, and he still takes off the black gauze hats of those officials, do you have to wait for the Yan army to kill, let him take the Yan army into Gusu City?"

Hearing the sound, the left and right attendants of the imperial study walked quickly, and in the blink of an eye, many Wenchen and Wu were taken off to wear flower feathers.

There was no impassioned attitude before, but he was even more plucked by the rooster, lost his soul, and waited for Zhao Yanyu to give the emperor's order, and was thrown into boiling water and oil pot.

Ahem!

Zhao Yanyu cleared his throat, picked up the teacup to moisten his throat, a cup of warm tea bottomed out, and put the teacup on the dragon case. Said: "Today, I will take your top flower feathers, confiscate the money and grain from your family, and expel those who vainly try to surrender to the Yan State to the court, from now on, if any officials in the court dare to mention surrendering to the Yan army and surrendering to Lin Feng, I will be ruthless and tortured."

After speaking, he waved his hand to signal the chamberlain, and expelled the officials who were taken off the top of the flower feathers to the court, out of sight and out of mind.

The commotion and pleading gradually faded away, and the imperial study was quiet, and the military generals did not dare to breathe.

Since ancient times, the companion is like a tiger, dangerous and unpredictable.

Many officials are glad that they insisted on their own views and did not give up their beliefs, otherwise, at this time, they were taken off by the emperor to wear a flower feather, confiscated the money and grain of the family, and their reputation was ruined.

However, many court officials did not know, and Zhao Yanyu had his own concerns.

At present, in the vast southern region, only the state of Wu has survived, and it has not been invaded by the Yan army for the time being.

After Han Yanxi led his troops to surrender to Yan State, the Yan army advanced rapidly to the east in depth, and thousands of troops and horses would sooner or later kill Wu State.

In order to avoid the killing of the Yan army, some of the court officials were afraid of war and cowardice, which affected the court's strategy and the morale of the army, so he could only nip the idea of surrender in the bud in advance.

So that there is only one voice in the court of Wu to fight to the death, so as to maximize the cohesion of the subjects of Wu and compete with Lin Feng.

Returning to the dragon chair, Zhao Yanyu noticed the trembling and panicked expressions of the ministers, and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, since you choose to advance and retreat with the country and the imperial court when the Wu State is in danger, we should work together and persist in resisting the Yan army, right?"

"The emperor is wise, and the last general is willing to work for the emperor, and he will never live up to the emperor's expectations." Ye Liufan hugged Chao Wat and bowed to Zhao Yan.

"Your Majesty, what General Ye said is true, the last general is willing to shed the last drop of blood for the Wu Kingdom!"

"Your Majesty, the last general still insists on dispatching troops as soon as possible, occupying favorable terrain such as highland waters everywhere, and preparing to meet the Yan army."

The military generals of Wenchen united as one, and Zhao Yanyu showed a pleased smile in his face.

The Manchu Dynasty wanted to fight to the death with the Yan army, and was desperate to resist the invasion of the Yan army, so it was time to open the skylight and say something bright.

"Doctor Zuo is right, we should take advantage of the Yan army to rest in the Yue country, the Yan Emperor has not completely recovered the Yue army, and in advance in the official roads, mountain roads, and waters that the Yan army may pass through, carry out a drip-proof defense, General Wang, you have led the Northern Expedition many times, and have experienced countless battles with the Yan army in the past ten years, tell the generals about the situation of the Yan army!" Zhao Yanyu firmly poured the power of the country to block Yan Jun's thoughts, regardless of the precious time, and said loudly to Wang Zhengwen.

Hearing the sound, Wang Zhengwen had mixed emotions and didn't know where to start.

He led the Wu army to fight many times, but nine times out of ten he was defeated at the hands of the Yan army generals, which not only failed Zhao Yanyu's trust, but also buried many Wu Guoerlang on the battlefield and buried his bones in other places.

To put it bluntly, he is a complete failure, and it is not a pity to be cut by the emperor with a thousand cuts.

However, Zhao Yanyu not only did not blame him and punish him, but still trusted him well, Wang Zhengwen was grateful to Dade, and he couldn't wait to lead the troops to die on the battlefield and repay the emperor Longen.
