Chapter 214: The Fall of the Hidden Dragon Empire

With the arrest of Jin Zhongyu and his son, the remaining resistance team of less than 10,000 people in the Qianlong Empire collapsed in an instant, and with the army of the Shenwu Empire, a steady stream of troops entered Yuen Long City, the imperial capital of the Qianlong Empire, and the Qianlong Empire was officially declared extinct.

A day later, on both sides of the official road outside Yuen Long, there were many wooden pillars, and near the gate of Yuen Long were Jin Zhongyu and his princes and grandchildren, and in the middle were the ministers and their heirs of the Qianlong Empire, and finally the high-ranking families and disciples of the Qianlong Empire.

Wu Hanqi stood on the tower of Yuen Long City, looking at the many civilians and soldiers standing outside the city wall, and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, fellow villagers, today is a memorable day, because from today onwards, you have successfully overthrown a dynasty that only knows how to exploit you and become a member of our Shenwu Empire, here I congratulate you on behalf of Her Majesty the Empress of our Shenwu Empire!"

"Our Shenwu Empire is a free, no exploitation country, in our Shenwu Empire, the people only need to pay three layers of taxes, all children over the age of five, under the age of fifteen, are eligible to participate in the selection of our Swallowing Heaven Gate, as long as they pass the selection, they will be exempted from their family's taxes, and they can also receive a certain amount of living expenses from our Swallowing Heaven Gate every month. ”

The reason why the people of the Qianlong Empire will stand up against the royal family of the Qianlong Empire is because of the superior living conditions of the Shenwu Empire and the hope of freeing these ordinary families from the fate of civilians.

Until now. When these civilians and soldiers heard the news announced by Wu Hanqi, they confirmed that the original rumors were true. These apprehensive people finally couldn't help but cheer. Shouting: "Long live Wu Gongzi, Long live Her Majesty the Queen, Long live the Shenwu Empire"

Jin Zhongyu, who was tied to the pillar, saw that the people of the Hidden Dragon Empire in the past, because of the news announced by Wu Hanqi, and shouted from the bottom of their hearts, long live, his heart was very uncomfortable, at this moment he once again realized the truth that "water can carry a boat and can also overturn a boat! Those who win the hearts of the people win the world!", and regretted his decision not to take these ordinary people in his eyes and blindly squeeze these people, but unfortunately there is no regret medicine to buy in this world.

Wu Hanqi didn't expect these civilians and soldiers to put him in front of Xuanyuan Zixuan. At this time, he saw that the black tiger beside him was full of smugness, and immediately guessed that this was the black tiger, and then glared at the black tiger fiercely, raised his hands, and signaled the people present to be quiet.

As Wu Hanqi raised his hands, the excited civilians and soldiers immediately quieted down, Wu Hanqi looked at the prisoners who were tied to the pillar with a serious face, pointed to the prisoners who were tied to the wooden pillar, and said in a cold voice: "Fellow villagers, soldiers, do you know these people tied to this pillar?"

"Maybe some of you know. There are people who don't know them, but I can tell you very clearly that these people used to starve you and forced you to sell your sons and daughters. If it weren't for their tyranny of the murderers who continue to suck your blood, many of you would not have been separated. My family is ruined, and now I will hand over to you the power to execute these murderers. Let you have grievances and complaints, and revenge!"

"Kill them. Kill these bastards. Wu Hanqi's words immediately turned all the people and eyes to the members of the royal family, ministers, and families hanging on the pillar, and at this time, I don't know who shouted, a stone was thrown on Jin Zhongyu's body, which immediately caused a chain reaction among the civilians, and the angry civilians picked up the stones and smashed them at the prisoners who were tied to the pillars, screams, wails, and kept coming, but these voices were quickly covered by angry scolding,

"Childe, you are really clever in this move, you can condense the hearts of these civilians at once, and in the future, you will be the supreme god in their hearts, even if you let them die, they will probably not hesitate to pay allegiance to you. Seeing those angry people holding stones and smashing the prisoners tied to the pillars to death, the green snake looked at Wu Hanqi with a look of adoration in his eyes, and said with a look of admiration and compliment.

When Wu Hanqi heard the compliment of the green snake, he was not complacent because of the compliment of the green snake, but replied with a stern face: "The main reason why these people rebelled was because of the tyranny of the royal family of the Qianlong Empire, coupled with the policies of our Shenwu Empire, which made them see the hope of getting ahead. ”

"But they have been the people of the Hidden Dragon Empire for generations, and in their minds, they will still instinctively regard themselves as the people of the Hidden Dragon Empire, for the future development of our empire, we must eliminate the ideas in the minds of these people, and this method can not only let them vent their grievances in their hearts, but also make them forget their former identities. ”

Hearing Wu Hanqi's words, Green Snake nodded approvingly, and added with a smile: "Childe, the most important thing you haven't said is that this method can also make these people grateful to you and the empire, and make them loyal to you forever. ”

Wu Hanqi heard the words of the green snake, smiled slightly, and said: "You and the black tiger, one is not like to use his brain, and the other is extremely fast, if the two of you can average their brains, then I don't know how good it would be!"

When the green snake heard Wu Hanqi's emotion, an embarrassed smile immediately appeared on his face, and then he changed the topic and asked Wu Hanqi: "Childe, now that we have occupied two-thirds of the cities of the Hidden Dragon Empire, it won't take long for the remaining cities to be recovered, and the imperial capital of our empire, do you want to move here." ”

Wu Hanqi was actually thinking about this matter in the past two days, but in the end, Wu Hanqi denied the idea of moving the capital, and at this time, hearing the green snake ask about moving the capital, Wu Hanqi subconsciously shook his head and replied: "In the past, because the territory of the Shenwu Empire was too small, if the Hidden Dragon Empire wanted to attack us, it only took one day to reach our imperial capital, if we didn't get the information in advance, I'm afraid we wouldn't even have time to react." ”

"Now that the territory of the Hidden Dragon Empire has been incorporated into our empire, it has just increased the depth of our empire, and if that country wants to attack us, we can also have enough time to react. ”

Hearing Wu Hanqi's words, the green snake nodded subconsciously, and then said: "Childe, although we have successfully occupied the Hidden Dragon Empire, expanding the territory of our Shenwu Empire several times, but it can be seen from the fact that the Tang Empire secretly supports the Hidden Dragon Empire, they definitely don't want us to become strong, and we have to guard against the Tang Empire!"

Wu Hanqi heard the reminder of the green snake, and immediately remembered the intelligence personnel placed by the Tang Empire in their Shenwu Empire, at this moment a sharp gaze flashed in his eyes, and he commanded the green snake: "Green snake! The Tang Empire has intelligence personnel in our country and the Hidden Dragon Empire, and the news that I appear here today will definitely be passed on to the Tang Empire by their intelligence personnel, so during this period, you give me a comprehensive monitoring of this Yuen Long City and find out the spies hiding in the shadows." ”

As long as the intelligence personnel of the Tang Empire use the Flying Eagle to transmit messages, we will be able to lock on to the target as soon as possible, and when the time comes, we will be able to smash the spy organization of the Tang Empire. When the green snake heard Wu Hanqi's order, he immediately made a report to Wu Hanqi about his arrangement.

When Wu Hanqi instructed the green snake to find the intelligence personnel hidden by the Tang Empire beside them, in a corner under the city wall, a middle-aged man stared at Wu Hanqi standing on the city wall, but secretly muttered in his heart: "This Wu Hanqi has just left the empire for a few days, according to the time, Wu Hanqi and they should be in the territory of the Reckless Empire now, how can they return to the Shenwu Empire so soon? Could it be that the one who stayed in the empire was a stand-in, and if he couldn't do it, he had to send this information back to China immediately." ”

When this middle-aged man was about to send the information back to China, above the court of the Tang Empire, Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Empire, sat on the dragon chair, looked at the civil and military officials standing on both sides in turn, and said with a serious face: "Yesterday, I received a message from the Flying Eagle sent back by our intelligence officers in the Qianlong Empire, the Shenwu Empire has surrounded the imperial capital of the Qianlong Empire, and the destruction of the Qianlong Empire is inevitable. ”

"After the Shenwu Empire occupies the Qianlong Empire, its strength will expand rapidly, according to that Wu Hanqi's style of acting, the Shenwu Empire will definitely become the number one enemy of our empire in the future, threatening the overlord of our Tang Empire, so we must do everything we can to stop the speed of its development, and now everyone is discussing to see if there is any way to stop the development of the Shenwu Empire. ”

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, there was a discussion of "buzz!" in the court, and after a long time, a minister stood up and respectfully reported: "Your Majesty! According to Weichen's research on this Wu Hanqi, this is a very ambitious young man, after he occupies the Qianlong Empire, his ** will definitely not stop at a Qianlong Empire, the minister judges, he is likely to make a move on the Fusang Empire next, and when he does it, it is the best time for us to target the Shenwu Empire." ”

When Li Shimin heard the report of his subordinates, his eyes lit up, and he asked: "Wei Sheng, why do you say that when the Shenwu Empire started a war against the Fusang Empire, it was the best time for us to deal with the Shenwu Empire, although there are not many Spirit Kings in the Shenwu Empire, but the strength of those Spirit Kings is far from what our Tang Empire can contend with." ”

When Wei Sheng heard Li Shimin's inquiry, he immediately reported respectfully: "Your Majesty! What I am talking about is not to start a war with the Shenwu Empire, but to use the countries around the Shenwu Empire to unite against the Shenwu Empire. ”

"The Shenwu Empire's continuous invasion of two countries will definitely make its surrounding countries vigilant, and when the time comes, as long as we secretly pull the strings behind our backs, we can easily unite these countries, the strength of the Shenwu Empire is certainly strong, but with the confrontation of these countries united, we can easily weaken the strength of the Shenwu Empire.
