Chapter 708: Annihilation
A few months later, the five major families united with the major warrior clans to raise troops together, and almost lit the beacon fire in Jiangdong. Now, under Lu Xun's rapid pacification, only the Chen clan remained, and the Xue clan was trapped in a few cities in Huiji County.
They came without a name, just to rebel and rebel. Second, there is no foreign aid, and now, Lu Xun's army is entrenched outside, and it is a matter of time before it is wiped out.
The city called Shantun is the foundation of the Chen family. Chen's ancestral graves are all outside the city.
At this moment, Chen Xiong and Xue Xun, the two patriarchs, were sitting together in the study of the Chen family's ancestral mansion.
Both of them looked extremely haggard.
They thought they could coerce Kou Feng to compromise with force, and even went one step further to get rid of Kou Feng. From among their own people, they elected the lord of Koto and divided Koto.
But I didn't expect Kou Feng to be so strong.
Decisive killing.
Lu Xun was even more able to command the troops, and beat them to the ground, almost unable to defeat the army.
If you want the literati to rebel, you won't succeed in ten years. These pampered patriarchs, who lead the soldiers, how can they be Lu Xun's opponents?
But at this time, it was too late to know that I would regret it.
"How do we decide now?" Chen Xiong's expression was no longer as high-spirited as he was a few months ago, and the divine light in his eyes had also become dim, very decadent.
"The army is overwhelmed, if Lu Xun breaks through the city, I will have to be beheaded like those patriarchs. Home, the people are slaves. Xue Xun's face turned pale.
In the past few months, countless large families have been wiped out. Without exception, the patriarch was killed, and the family was enslaved, and if the clansman had a bad reputation, he was also killed, and his family was enslaved.
Since ancient times, scholars have been very important.
Even if the country is broken, it will not let the families of these scholars become slaves to others. Yes, there are, but very few. And Kou Feng, in order to prevent future troubles.
Do not let these people be slaves, and even burn the books in their homes.
It's okay to become someone else's domestic slave, but if there is no book, their descendants will never have a chance to come back, and they can be slaves for life and life.
It's so ruthless, it's really decisive.
Chu State Kou Feng This is a plan to let the Jiangdong Shi clan cut off their children and grandchildren, so as to stabilize and stabilize Jiangdong.
I'm afraid that before this incident happened, not only them, the Jiangdong clan, but even the people of the world, probably would not have thought that Kou Feng would be so strong, so ruthless, and so decisive.
Just do it.
In order to rejuvenate the Chu State, whoever stands in the way will die. Even if it is a temporary loss because of the war, you can lose your arm. For the sake of the stability of Koto.
Destroy the mountains and the Yue, and destroy the Shi clan. After stabilizing Jiangdong, let Jiangdong become the hinterland of Chu and the granary.
Koto is not actually rich, that's right. But that's because most of Jiangdong's military strength was held back by Shanyue. Taxes, there are also thirty percent of the monopoly by the scholars.
Therefore, Sun Quan seemed a little weaker.
Historically, except for the war against Shu and the usurpation of Jingzhou, Wu basically did not make any achievements. And because of that.
And now Kou Feng first removed Shanyue, and then the Pingshi clan. It can be stabilized Koto. With the 1.5 million people in Jiangdong, as long as they grow well. Like Jingzhou, it is a matter of time before it reaches prosperity.
Kou Feng This is a long-term plan, first chaos, and then great governance.
But he can make such a ruthless move, and only Kou Feng is so decisive. The people who have ruled Jiangdong in the past have not had such a resoluteness.
In his heart, Chen Xiong has already sketched the image of a generation of male masters, sweeping away all obstacles with a fierce and arrogant momentum. Kou Feng is this person, the hero of the world.
It's very human.
In Chen Xiong's heart, almost all his intestines were repentant.
They were too confident, too confident.
"Can we open the city and surrender now?" At this time, Xue Xun asked anxiously.
"Drop?" Chen Xiong's eyes lit up, and it was definitely a good idea. But is it possible?
Chen Xiong hesitated, but then made a decision. Guizheng sits in the trapped city, and sooner or later he will die. It's better to survive in the dead, please come down and see.
"Okay, I'll send someone to ask for surrender at once."
Chen Xiong suddenly stood up and said. Hundreds of years of business will definitely not be ruined in his hands.
The scholars cherish the family, so they hug each other. But it is also more afraid of the scourge of extermination. As long as he can solve the disaster of exterminating the clan as soon as his mind is moved, Chen Xiong can do everything.
Inside the city are the private soldiers of the two clans who are trapped in the city, but outside the city are the majestic Chu soldiers.
Now that Jiangdong has been pacified again, Zhou Tai, LĂź Meng, Fang Dao and others have returned to their respective stations, preparing to continue to defend the remaining Shanyue. Only Lu Xun, who was originally sitting in Huiji, was left, leading 10,000 elite soldiers to continue to attack Chen Xiong and Xue Xun.
Because the victory was imminent, Yangzhou Assassin Shi Yi also led some entourage, brought some food, and planned to reward the whole army.
At this moment, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Yi Yuan, Gu Yong, Lu Xun and other three people sat separately.
According to the position, in fact, Lu Xun is higher. However, according to the authority, the qualifications are high. Therefore, the Yi nationality sat in the handsome seat.
And Lu Xun and Gu Yong both sat on both sides.
"The generals are serious and brave. When the king was in Moling, he discussed with me. They all thought that it would take a few years to quell the Jiangdong rebellion, and they didn't want to think that in a few months, the beacon fire would disappear. Yi said with emotion.
Lu Xun, Lu Meng and other Jiangdong veteran generals are indeed very outstanding, and they are invincible.
"It's not that I'm brave, but the situation is out of line." When Lu Xun heard this, he didn't dare to take credit, but sighed.
"The mountain is more peaceful, so that the popularity of the monarch in Jiangdong has reached the realm of the former Sun family, and even slightly higher. With such prestige, even if the scholars instigate rebellion in the township, there are very few people who cater to it. That's why it's right. If the monarch had not put down the Shanyue rebellion, I am afraid it would really have lasted for a year or two. Lu Xun said with great admiration.
Lu Xun was born in a big clan, and he was very clear about the power of the big clan. One of them is that there are many domestic slaves, and they can stop an army of thousands, or even ten thousand, at once.
and each has its own equipment, and so on. It's hard to be right.
The second is the prestige in the township, if there is any clan dispute in the township, the first one to find must not be the government, but the local clan.
In time. The prestige of the great clan slowly rose. As long as you raise your arms and shout, the servants gather.
But Kou Feng first designed it himself and pacified Shanyue. He increased his own prestige countless times in the hearts of Jiangdong Cangsheng. After that, the eradication of the Lost Warriors began.
In the conflict with the scholars, most of the common people did not help the scholars. It's like cutting off the arm of the scholars, and that's why today's big victory.
It was only a few months before most of the Shizu rebellion in Jiangdong was put down.
This cause and effect, if it is a meritorious service, I am afraid that it is still the clever plan of Kou Feng, cutting off the Shanyue grain road, and pacifying the Shanyue Gong, so that today's Shi clan can be pacified so quickly.
"Haha, too. Junshang's clever plan is to level the mountain. I waited later, but I was blessed by the king. Yi joked, but also respectful.
Originally, the Iraqi thought that sitting in Jiangdong and becoming the assassin of Yangzhou must be a chore. Yi himself likes to be pioneered and likes trouble. Therefore, even Taiwan, where the future is unknown, went to Taiwan, and established a Taiwanese foundation for Kou Feng.
The foundation for pacifying Wu Yue was set.
There are two major harms in Yangzhou, Shanyue and Shi clan. Originally, Yi thought that he would also spend a lot of time and energy to govern Yangzhou for Kou Feng.
But I didn't expect Kou Feng's clever plan to pacify hundreds of Shanyue, who had not been able to surrender for thousands of years. In turn, it indirectly laid the foundation for the pacification of the Shi clan.
The style was Kou Feng's own idea. This made their courtiers admire and feel a little more embarrassed. They made contributions to foreign soldiers, but in fact, they were blessed by Kou Feng.
It's a shame.
Gu Yong's face couldn't help but show a little admiration.
Indeed, Kou Feng can often stand out. It's really human.
Just when the three of them were respecting, Chen Xiong's envoy arrived.
"Qi Yu assassinated Lord Shi, the traitor Chen Xiong sent someone to ask for a meeting." Escort report.
"Hmph, this is begging for softness." Lu Xun snorted coldly and said disdainfully. is really spineless, when he first raised an army to fight against the Chu State, he instigated a few people to rebel with his words, but he turned out to be a soft bone.
Since Kou Feng rescued Lu Xun from the quagmire of Jiangdong, Lu Xun has been a complete loyal element, and none of them have a good impression of these seditions of the scholars.
"If we ask for surrender, we will not refrain from making a private decision. It is better to see this person first, and then report it to the king, and ask the king to decide. Yi shook his head and said safely.
Accept it or not, and they are not good courtiers to make decisions.
"Please come in." Lu Xun nodded and waved his hand.
Wei Ying promised and turned to leave. Soon after, a middle-aged man walked in.
This middle-aged man looks really good, but he looks haggard and under a lot of pressure.
"Chen Feng, I've seen all the talents." Chen Feng saluted Yi Yuan and the others one by one.
He is Chen Xiong's clan brother, and he has some knowledge, so he was sent to ask for surrender.
"But you're here to surrender?" Yi Zhi did not despise him, but said with a pleasant face.
"Yes. The head of the family mistakenly believed the words of the people, and mistakenly raised an army to veto the wise king, and today he has repented. Please also open the side. Chen Feng's face was humble, and he almost pleaded.
"I can't help but make up my mind. If Chen Xiong is sincere, he can send his heirs over. If I promise you again, you will be surrendered. If the king doesn't promise, he will be sorry for him. Yi said lightly.
In fact, Yi knew in his heart that most of Kou Feng would not agree. Because the name of Kou Feng is a righteous law, according to the law, it is illegal for Chen Xiong and other scholars to have many domestic slaves.
Spanning the number of legally owned ones.
This is certainly not child's play. The first evil should be punished. In addition, Kou Feng himself is a fierce and resolute person, who will never regret compromise after making a move, and most of them want to destroy his family.
"Thank you, sir." However, Chen Feng didn't know what Yi thought in his heart, but bowed down happily.
Immediately, Chen Feng returned to the city and brought one of Chen Xiong's sons over, who was considered a hostage. And the Iraqi nationality also wrote to Kou Feng, please Kou Feng decide.
At present, Chen Xiong is already struggling to breathe, and this time he is gone, it is not a matter of putting the military situation on hold.
