Chapter 45: The Fall of the Kingdom of Jin
learned that the 80,000 Mongolian cavalry were all lost at the hands of Zhao Kong.
Wanyan Xun, the emperor of the Jin State who was struggling in Xijing, completely gave up struggling.
gathered the kings of the clan to discuss to no avail, and Wan Yanxun had no choice but to be a sinner of the Jurchen clan himself.
On the same day, he sent an envoy to beg Wu to surrender, just asking Zhao Kong to give them a way to live.
"Go back and tell Yan Xun that this king doesn't want to kill all your Jurchens, but it is impossible to tolerate you continuing to stay in the Central Plains."
"In the past few years, I will transport the Jurchens of the Central Plains to the islands of the South Seas one after another, you should know the environment of those islands, and those who can adapt will pass, and those who can't adapt will go to Mobei or the Western Regions, and no one will stop them."
"As for Wanyan Xun, this king can crown him as the Duke of Dude as usual, he can stay in the Central Plains or go to Nanyang if he wants, and this king is not afraid that you remnants will be defeated and turned upside down."
"Tomorrow I will let the Shanxi front stop fighting until the end of this month, if you Jurchens have not surrendered before the end of the month, then there will never be a chance to surrender."
Zhao Kong met with Yan Xun's envoy and directly announced the plan for dealing with the Jurchens.
The Han people in Nanyang are still too small, and the number of indigenous people exceeds that of the Han people by ten times.
Now the introduction of the Jurchens as the middle class can play a huge role in many places.
Without the cruelty and tyranny of the Jurchens, how can they reflect the benevolence and charity of the Han people?
Therefore, although Zhao Kong's treatment plan was ruthless, it did not force the Jurchens to a desperate situation, at least below them, there were tens of millions of Nanyang natives to oppress.
Wanyan Xun, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, is not a strong lord, although the Duke of Dude is Zhao Ji of Song Huizong back then, and he is also a real duke after being caught in the Jin Kingdom.
Even if Zhao Kong's ridicule is obvious, but the state of Wu is a Han dynasty after all, and the duke's treatment should not be missing him, and Wan Yan Xun is not unacceptable.
And with Zhao Kong's ability, there is no one in the world who wants to kill.
If you really want to kill him Yan Xun, you can rush into Xijing now and cut off his head openly.
Therefore, since Zhao Kong accepted his surrender, he would not assassinate him in the future.
Therefore, since he ascended the throne, he has been constantly harassed by Mongolia and Western Xia, and he has to worry about whether he will be killed by Zhao Kong, who is in a bad mood, like Wanyan Yongji.
Wan Yanxun, who has been in a state of panic for nearly ten years, has a feeling of unloading his burden at this moment.
In the future, as long as you take care of your mouth and honestly eat, drink and have fun in the Duke's Palace, you should not end up like Chen Shubao and Li Yu.
Wan Yan Xun, who had mixed feelings in his heart, sighed for a long time, and the next day ordered the Jin army from all over the country to surrender to the nearby Wu army.
The Jurchens have been in the Central Plains for nearly a hundred years, and after several generations of sinicization, they are no longer the barbarians who fought for their lives against the sky and were not afraid of death in the white mountains and black waters.
Now that there is a way to live, more than eighty percent of the Jin army has chosen to surrender.
The few remaining hard bones also knew that they couldn't fight against Zhao Kong, so they learned from the Khitan Yelu Dashi back then, and took part of the population around the grassland, preparing to return to the northeast to re-establish the country.
It's a pity that they don't know how big Zhao Kong's ambition is, as long as he doesn't escape to the Siberian no-man's land, he will be caught and sent to Nanyang sooner or later.
In the next three months, the Wu army's advance accelerated again, and with the reluctant cooperation of the Jurchens, they quickly took over Shanxi and most of Guanzhong.
And the 200,000 troops of Western Xia marching eastward were not very smooth in these four months.
Even if the combat effectiveness of the Jin soldiers decreased, they were much stronger than the Western Xia people.
In addition, the cities in the northwest faced the invasion of Western Xia all the year round, and they all built the city walls tall and strong, and they were familiar with the cruelty of the party after breaking the city, so they all resisted with their lives.
So to this day, Western Xia can't take Qingyang Mansion, the important place of the Jin State in the western part of Guanzhong, and he didn't expect the Wu army to enter Guanzhong so quickly.
This time to take over the middle of the Guanzhong, Wu Jun came in with great fanfare, and he couldn't hide it and didn't want to hide it from Xia Jun's spies.
In the camp of the Xia army outside Qingyang Mansion, Tanma galloped like crazy in the camp, shouting non-stop, and a few soldiers who did not react were even knocked away by the galloping war horses.
"Report."
Although it was evening, Li Zunwei, the lord of the Western Xia Kingdom, was still immersed in military affairs in the tent of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, and did not look up at the door until the voice was close.
I saw a panting herald rush into the tent regardless of him, and when he saw him, he immediately knelt down and clenched his fists, and reported to him.
"Your Majesty, Tanma found that 70,000 Wu troops had entered Guanzhong, and the Jin army in Guanzhong did not resist, and directly opened the door to surrender to the Wu army, and the leader of the Wu army was actually Zhao Kong, the king of Wu!"
When Li Zunwei heard that Zhao Kong had come to Guanzhong, he couldn't help but be shocked, and regardless of the fact that it was getting late, he immediately summoned the generals of each battalion to his big tent to discuss how to deal with the Wu army.
Not long after, the generals of the Xia army and some of the conscription officials quickly gathered in Li Zunwei's big tent.
After Li Zunwei announced the information, he looked at the frightened generals in the tent, and couldn't help frowning and said.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Wu army has entered the Guanzhong region, what should we do now?"
As Li Zunwei's voice fell, the generals in the big tent were silent.
Everyone knows that this question is not easy to answer, and no matter what, there will be trouble.
Seeing that Li Zunwei's brows were locked tighter and tighter, Shang Shu Ling Li Yuanshu had to stand up and say.
"Your Majesty, we really can't fight with the Wu army, in case that Wu King Zhao Kong uses his magic again, I'm afraid none of us will be able to return to Zhongxing Mansion alive!"
Li Yuanshu opened his mouth first, and other officials and generals also persuaded one after another.
"Then King Wu can destroy 80,000 Mongolian cavalry by himself, he is simply a demon!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, let's withdraw our troops."
"There are a lot of goods and slaves that I have grabbed on this expedition, so let's go back!"
When Li Zunwei heard the cowardly words of these people, he couldn't help but be furious in his heart.
Although he also knew that Zhao Kong could not be provoked, these important ministers of the Xia State were afraid of this, if the Wu army attacked the Xia State one day, would it be the surrender of the whole country?
Li Yuanshu has been based in the Western Xia court for decades, and he is naturally an old fox who is good at observing words and feelings.
Seeing that Li Zunxuan's face was getting worse and worse, he immediately stood up to stop the noise in the tent and said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, if we don't withdraw from Qingyuan Road first, but Fengxiang Road and Lintao Road can continue to occupy it, our attack on Jin Country has helped Wu State a lot, and it is only natural to leave the spoils of war."
After listening to Li Yuanshu's words, Li Zunshu's face softened a little, and he was about to nod in agreement, but he heard bursts of exclamations from outside the big tent.
When Li Zunwei and the civil and military officials walked out of the big tent, they saw that the western part of the camp was in chaos, and the morgue camp where the corpses of the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom were placed kept screaming.
Li Zunwei was not a timid person, and immediately walked to Xiying with the generals.
But when they came to the vicinity of Xiying, they saw a creepy scene.
The corpses of thousands of soldiers who had long since died in battle actually stood up again!
And chased the soldiers who were guarding the camp to bite wildly, and at the same time were not afraid of these soldiers slashing with swords.
What's even more amazing is that some of the soldiers who were bitten by the camp soon became crazy, and like those corpses that suddenly came back to life, they were chased and bitten all over the camp.
Just when Li Zunwei and the others were stunned, some of the corpses had already noticed their group of people and walked in this direction with a stagger.
"Ahh Come on! ”
"The king quickly left this place, this must be the demon magic cast by Zhao Kong's demon!"
Although Li Zunwei didn't want to flee in embarrassment like this, he looked at those terrifying corpses and kept approaching them, and finally chose to follow his heart and fled with the other generals.
Fortunately, most of these resurrected corpses moved much slower than normal people, and the monarchs and ministers of Xia Kingdom were quickly out of danger.
However, at this time, the entire Xia army camp was completely chaotic, and some of the corpses of the Xia army that were the first to be resurrected had already wandered to other camps, biting many unsuspecting soldiers.
And these bitten soldiers have no vision at the beginning, but it will not take long for them to completely lose their rationality and bite at their comrades-in-arms, catching them off guard, causing a new round of transmission.
In particular, the high-ranking officers in the Xia army all went to Li Zunwei's big tent.
Without the command and cooperation of generals, only some middle- and lower-level officers could not stabilize such a chaotic situation at all.
What's even more troublesome is that both resurrected corpses and bitten soldiers are extremely difficult to kill.
The heart, chest and abdomen are not afraid of swords at all, even if their legs are cut off, these monsters can also crawl on the ground, and only a sword can make them completely dead.
"Roar...... Roar ......"
More and more resurrected monsters roared and rushed out of the morgue camp, chasing people everywhere in the Xia army camp and biting them, and the more people there were, the easier it was to cause them to besiege.
In particular, a small number of Xia soldiers who had just been organized, once more than 100 people gathered, they would immediately attract a large number of corpses to come forward and continue to attack, and these people would die faster.
After fighting with the Xia soldiers for a period of time, the few corpses that bit and killed many people but were not beheaded actually began to know how to pick up the knives and guns on the ground and kill people everywhere with weapons as if they were alive.
The combat power of these special corpses has increased extremely quickly, not only has their movement speed increased significantly, but they can run faster than most Xia Jun, and their strength has reached several times that of their lives.
Coupled with their bodies that are not afraid of sword damage, no one can stop these monsters at all.
Just as the Xia army was desperately resisting, a terrifying roar suddenly sounded outside the barracks.
Li Zunwei immediately thought that under the city wall of Qingyang Mansion not far away, there were not only the corpses of the Jin soldiers who had died defending the city in the past few days.
There are nearly 100,000 people in Fengxiang Mansion who were driven by them to attack the city and fell in the rain of arrows!
"Kill them quickly, these people have become devils, and if they stay here, they will definitely die!"
Li Zunwei has given up his intention to gather the army, this kind of monster that is really not afraid of life and death, and is extremely difficult to kill, once it forms a certain scale, it is not at all something that ordinary soldiers can deal with.
If the army is gone, it will be gone, Li Zunwei has already realized that no matter how many troops he has, he is not qualified to fight against Zhao Kong.
It's a pity that at this moment, the nearly 100,000 corpses outside have faintly surrounded the Xia army camp.
And the Xia army in the camp is not gathered on a large scale, and those special corpses that have become stronger especially like to impact crowded places, making the situation even more chaotic.
At this moment, even by Li Zunwei's side, there were only a few first-class masters of the Xixia Yipintang left to protect him.
Other civil and military officials died or fled, and gathering together was not only harmful to themselves but also to the emperor.
But even so, these Yipintang masters couldn't protect their emperor.
A few years ago, Zhao Kong went to the Xixia Palace to find the secret of the exercises, and easily killed the innate martial artist who guarded the Xixia Palace.
As a result, Yipintang has not been able to give birth to the second congenital.
Otherwise, with the combat power of the innate powerhouse, Li Zunwei really has hope of breaking out of this sea of corpses.
