Chapter 1377: Three States Descend
After drinking tea, a group of people not only did not rush to eat, but talked and laughed while enjoying the coolness.
Some of the news is more well-informed, because it has been held back all morning, and now that there is a chance, I don't continue to hold it back, but directly open the chatterbox, and said mysteriously to my companions: "Have you heard, it is said that the three states of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Yangzhou have all sent people over now, guess what's they here for?!" ”
When the companions heard this, they all looked at each other and smiled, and then said: "Wang Si, your news is outdated, this matter spread everywhere last night, what can they do here, they are not here to send the surrender table." ”
"If the emperor of Cangguo knows about this, I'm afraid he will die of anger."
"But also, when the Cangguo ruled us, they didn't treat us as human beings, in the past, when we were forced to do labor, not only did we have to do our strength, but we also had to bring food and money, otherwise we would either die of exhaustion and starvation or be beaten to death, but those big households, every time they were forced to do it, they all earned a lot of money, unlike now, as far as I heard, Chen Qi, who was in the fields next door, was the son of a big family from the south, but now, he didn't have to do things like us."
"And those scholars, it's not a good thing, I even said that the general likes to slaughter the city, and what he said was decent, but in fact, the general killed all bullies, and I was almost deceived before."
"You say, why are those who have read books so bad?!"
Someone took over the conversation.
"So, many things, you can't look at what he says, you have to see how he does it, just say that when the Cangguo was in the country, didn't the court shout every day that the emperor loved the people like a son, but whose father forced his child to death?!"
"On the contrary, it's my Daxin, and I didn't say anything empty talk, but look at the present, don't say anything else, the big white rice is full......"
"By the way, there are a total of twelve states in the world, and now I have five states in Dacang, and now I have three states, which is already eight states, so wouldn't it be necessary to unify the mountains and rivers......"
Daxin does not prohibit the people from discussing state affairs, and even encourages the people to discuss it in turn, after all, this kind of thing, if it is forbidden, the so-called fear that someone will spread rumors, is just false, prohibited, nothing more than a weak heart.
……
On the other side, the envoys of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Yangzhou were also in the barracks at the moment, waiting quietly.
The three envoys are all about thirty years old, which is the most youthful and powerful time, as for the identity of the three envoys, they are not ordinary officials, but the sons of the governor of Sanzhou.
Generally speaking, the state pastor is designated by the imperial court, and the appointment and dismissal of it also needs to be played by the imperial court, and then the emperor's consent is required.
But what I am talking about is when Dacang first opened the country, and now, the replacement of the state pastor has little to do with the imperial court, and the imperial court is just to give the imperial court face, if the imperial court agrees, it is hello and I am good, if you don't agree, the follow-up will be a disaster.
Of course, the three states of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Yangzhou do not have a single dominant force, but several companies jointly take charge of a state, and the state pastor is just a person who pushes to the forefront, and is the middleman between the imperial court and local forces.
Now, the three states have sent the table down, which is also the result of the joint discussion of these many forces.
Surrender is a matter of not too late, the sooner you get, the better you will be treated, the sooner you talk, and the later you will have no choice.
If it is said that before Zhao Cheng took Jizhou, many forces still had illusions about the Dacang court, but the battle of Jizhou completely shattered all the illusions of many people about Dacang.
The iron cavalry composed of three million people is invincible!
And they, now the Dacang Imperial Court is no longer reliable, as for themselves, first the world-destroying god thunder of the battle of the Heavenly Absolute Pass, which consumed their strength, and then in the Heavenly Absolute Pass, under the temptation of the king, all the forces contributed again, and the result was all buried again.
Now, although they have recovered a little after several years of recuperation, Zhao Cheng's strength has swelled even more terrifyingly.
People simply can't afford the courage to fight to the death.
After all, if it is a battle to the death, it will really be completely dead, and if it surrenders, Zhao Cheng will not kill them all, but just scatter and relocate.
Even, if there are talents, they can still be promoted, and although the subsequent wealth will be thinner, it is much better than complete extinction.
Originally, according to the normal situation, in the face of this kind of surrender, all the masters would attach great importance to it, and even when the envoy first arrived, it was very common to summon him directly to show courtesy.
But this time, in the face of the surrender of Sanzhou, Zhao Cheng did not summon him immediately, but was thinking about whether to accept the surrender of the other party or fight all the way through.
After all, there are no rules, and in the face of surrender, you must accept it.
Many times, victory comes too easily, and it is not necessarily a good thing.
It can be said that in this world, throughout the ages, I am afraid that there is only one king, Zhao Cheng, who has such an idea when he is fighting the world.
"The whole city is full of blood, nothing more than a thought to save the people, just ......"
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhao Cheng finally made a decision.
In the world, how can there be so many perfect things, under the general trend, he believes that those people with different intentions, even if they have thoughts, they can't make any waves.
As for before making a decision, what Zhao Cheng thought of was the First Emperor who traveled through the previous world, as well as the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms.
At that time, it was this group of people who did not kill them all, thinking that the subsequent demise of Qin had buried the disaster.
But if you really kill them all, there will be too many killings, or in other words, too many innocent people will be harmed.
At this moment, when Zhao Cheng faced a similar choice, in his thoughts, his spirit seemed to have completed a dialogue with that king, across time and space, and across the world.
When the other party faced this choice, he was probably like him, because of the kindness in his heart, and because he looked down on these defeated subordinates at all.
When you are strong, you are not my opponent, let alone a group of rats who can only hide in the dark in the future?!
This is a kind of self-confidence that belongs to the king and the hegemon.
……
"Your Majesty has a decree to declare the annexation of the state, Youzhou, and Yangzhou, and the envoys of the three states will meet ......"
With a loud voice, the three messengers, with their heads bowed all the way, walked into the barracks, the largest tent.
The camp tent and the royal palace are naturally incomparable, and even in terms of grandeur, they are far inferior to the mansion of the state pastor.
But at this moment, this humble tent made the three messengers who had seen the wind and waves tremble a little, and even walked all the way, and one by one they didn't even dare to raise their heads, but just looked at both sides with their peripheral eyes.
A place is just a place, but it varies from person to person.
For example, here, the invisible murderous aura, as well as the king's aura, pressed them and couldn't breathe.
Finally, after walking more than a hundred steps, the three of them finally arrived at their destination, and vaguely, they saw a person sitting on the highest place, but they did not dare to look closely, but did not hesitate to bow to the ground and shouted long live.
It wasn't until the sound of rudeness sounded in their ears that the three of them finally got up, and took this opportunity to finally see the person at the top of the place, it was a young man wearing an imperial robe, with a kind of jade texture all over his body, and a temperament like heaven and god, not like an ordinary class.
This kind of perception made the hearts of the three of them jump again, and it was only then that they finally realized that before they knew it, their backs were soaked.
……
In August of the eighth year of Yingtian, the three states of Bingzhou, Youzhou and Yangzhou presented a table, and for a while, the world was silent.
In November of the same year, the northern barbarians 150,000 iron horsemen plundered the northern plains.
The Great Cang Imperial Court, which has lasted for more than a thousand years, seems to be about to usher in its final destination.
