Chapter 343: The Wind Sweeps the Fallen Leaves [Asking for Votes]
At the city gate, in front of the Han army, a general, wearing bronze armor and holding a square hammer.
At this time, the offensive of the Fulu branch and Zhao Anji and others on the left and right had already bombarded the gate.
The general swung his hammer out, then shrugged his shoulders, and under the continuous impact of great force, the raised copper nails on the door collapsed, and the door was full of cracks.
Several generals marched in unison.
The gates were torn apart.
When the Han army rushed into the royal city, the lord of the country, Zhao Yingqi, came out of the main hall and stopped the guards of the palace and said: "Don't let go of arrows, it is the Han army, and we are also the people of the Han Dynasty." β
Lu Jia followed behind Zhao Yingqi, climbed to the top of the city, and looked at Zhao Jiande who was standing at the head of the city, and saw the surprise in the other party's eyes.
What a Han army!
came so quickly, and when he came, he rushed to the city, without the slightest hesitation, and he was extremely decisive and sharp.
The arrows shot down at the head of the city were all swept to the ground by the Han army with their weapons.
And the army that entered the royal city was fast and had a clear division of labor.
The royal palace of the South Vietnamese Kingdom is not large. In the early years, when they were conscripted by the Qin and Han dynasties, the South Vietnamese were very good at guerrilla warfare, and if the conscription team was strong, they would retreat, leave and come back, so the South Vietnamese did not go all out to build the palace.
Its scale is limited.
The palace is a huge mansion in the quadruple system, and in Chang'an, wealthy families also have mansions of this size.
The Han army rode in, brandished their spears and knocked the South Vietnamese court soldiers to the ground, disarmed and let them crouch.
If you resist a little in the process, you will be stabbed to death on the spot, and you are welcome.
The other part of the Han army that rushed into the city was faster, and went straight into the palace, driving all the people from the Nanyue royal palace, including the harem maids, to the square of the front hall and waiting for the arrival.
For a while, the situation was panicked, and there were soldiers and horses interspersed everywhere, and the cold light of weapons was shining.
Just looking at the proficiency of this army in breaking into the city, you can know that there is no shortage of things to raid the house, and they are all habitual offenders. Otherwise, it would not be so skillful, arresting, searching, disarming, all in one go.
Qiang - Qiang Qiang!
Metal horseshoe pounded on the streets outside the Intramus.
A majestic, tall horse walked out from behind the long street opposite the palace.
Immediately, the knight was dressed in military uniform, his face was cold, and his eyes were sharp and cut through the distance of dozens of feet, and looked at the city.
The person who was going to be sick right away.
He didn't make a move, and it was the soldiers and horses led by the Fulu branch and Zhao Anji who rushed to the city.
Huo Quzhi followed behind, focusing on a lively look!
Beside him, one left and one right, there were also Huo Guang and Bai Nanyu.
Huo Guang followed Dong Zhongshu out of Chang'an, and this time he followed Huo Qu's illness to get a long time insight.
"Master Hou, do you still remember me Zhao Yingqi?!"
Zhao Yingqi came down from the city, and Zhao Anji waved his hand to let his subordinates let him out.
He took the corner of the king's robe in his hand, walked quickly, and greeted Huo Quai.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, Huo Hou has broken the countries! Ben Wang ...... I, Zhao Yingqi, heard the news in South Vietnam, and I was also happy for Hou Ye. β
Zhao Yingqi leaned closer, Jin'an's big horse eyes stared at him with burning eyes, his front hooves raised slightly, ready to kick people.
Huo Quai's illness lightly clamped the horse's belly and stopped Jin'an.
Zhao Yingqi didn't know that he was almost kicked to death by a horse.
He came to Huo Quai's side, showing his attitude of handing in to welcome Huo Quai's dismount.
He has been in Chang'an for many years, but he can bend and stretch, and he doesn't feel that with the respect of the lord of the country, he personally takes Huo to get sick and dismount.
Huo Qubing ignored him, rode straight through the palace gate, and then dismounted.
Zhao Yingqi followed behind: "I saw that Huo Hou was very human, and he will be an invincible general on the battlefield in the future." β
Huo Quzhi said: "You didn't say that just now, saying that I am a tiger, and I want to eat people when I see blood." β
Zhao Yingqi explained: "Huo Hou misunderstood, I mean Huo Hou is as brave as a tiger, and he is a famous general in the world. β
At this time, Xiong San came over from the side, holding a square hammer in his hand.
The vanguard army that attacked the city just now was Xiong Sanyi.
And Huo Qubing had already come to the steps of the palace hall and stopped.
On one side of the palace pillar, a squatting figure appeared on a horizontal wooden beam.
The man held the bamboo slip in his hand and jumped down.
Zhao Yingqi, as well as Lu Jia and Zhao Jiande behind him, changed color at the same time.
This is the person who overheard them just now?
The other party hid outside the hall and listened to the corner, but he never left.
This person is an embroiderer, and what he cultivates is to hide and go deeper, and hide the means to steal news.
He was short in stature and silent, and with the best strategy of Shanghuo Quai's personal sacrifice and writing, he was able to sneak into the palace of Nanyue without missing traces.
He came to Huo Qubing and said:
"Li Qian, under the command of Xiuyi, was ordered to come to this Nanyue palace to investigate, a total of one night and two days, and all the information he heard has been recorded."
He was holding a concentric lotus leaf in his hand, the kind of lotus leaf that could transmit sound after being upgraded.
So just now, Zhao Yingqi, Lu Jia, and Zhao Jiande's conversation and discussion were passed through the concentric lotus leaves, and Huo Qubing heard it clearly outside the city, so he ordered the siege of the city, not that the spies went out to report after listening to it, and then attacked the city.
That's why it came so fast.
Li Qian came down from the eaves of the palace, which was equivalent to catching thieves and stolen goods, and he couldn't deny it if he wanted to.
He continued: "In addition to the discussion between the three of them just now, the Minister of State, Lu Jia, and Zhao Jiande, the son of the lord of the country, secretly discussed twice, talking about that if Huo Hou came to South Vietnam, he could first trick Huo Hou into entering the city, and then wait for the opportunity to act and plot misdeeds. β
Lu Jia and Zhao Jiande, both color change.
This champion Hou has obviously been eyeing them for a while, and he has already made arrangements before he comes, so that people can monitor and spy on their every move.
Zhao Jiande's expression was a little miserable, like a defeated rooster.
Lu Jia had other plans, and his eyes flickered.
He's not at the end of his rope yet.
At the beginning of the accident just now, he reacted immediately and arranged for his relatives to go out of the palace to deliver the news, and there were still means waiting to be unfolded.
But soon Lu Jia's expression also changed.
The two cronies he arranged to go out of the palace to deliver the news were also escorted over by the Han army: "Lang Zhongling, these two people wanted to leave the palace, but they were taken by the people who were lying dormant in the dark with embroidered clothes." β
Huo Quzhi looked at Lu Jia and said, "You are Lu Jia, the prime minister of South Vietnam?" β
Lu Jia took a light breath, his eyes were blazing on his slender face, and he straightened his back: "It's exactly what it is." β
"Since the champion Hou had already made arrangements before he came, he had already set his eyes on my Nanyue, and he should know that my Lu clan and the twelve tribes of Baiyue all had marriages.
If you move my Lu family, there will be a big chaos in Baiyue, and Hou Hou, the champion of light and heavy during the period, should be able to think clearly, so I don't need to say more. β
Baiyue refers to the entire coastal area, and even the Yi people in the southwest and southeast of the Han Dynasty.
The South Vietnamese State is the most important of these.
"If Huo Hou wants my Lu clan's help, I can consider it, but there are four conditions!"
"Four conditions?"
Huo Quzhi asked Song Ran on the side, and said, "Why haven't the people who embroidered clothes to get the Lu family come over yet?" β
Lucky Plus Nine responded: "Maybe it's a little delayed, it's time to come." β
"Champion Hou, do you dare to take my Lu clan's people?"
Lu Jia's voice was fierce: "You can think about it, what will be the consequences of moving my Lu family?" β
"You think that the mountains in Nanyue are high and the roads are far away, and it is not easy for the army to conquer you, and the consumption is also great. Even if we can suppress you and others for a while, as long as we leave and find an opportunity, you will not be able to kill you completely. β
In the past, South Vietnam went back and forth precisely because of related reasons.
Both the Qin and Han armies crusaded, but the effect was not good. This time, Huo Qubing was able to easily come in and control the situation, also because it was sudden enough and light and simple.
Lu Jia snorted lightly.
He has something to rely on, and he has a similar heart.
While speaking, there was a team of soldiers and horses outside the palace, escorting dozens of people over, it was the Lu family, all of whom were South Vietnamese dignitaries.
The first two were two generals, one in his fifties and the other in his early thirties.
Both of them were covered in blood, and they had fought with their captors.
Lu Jia asked his cronies to go out just now, just to find these two generals.
These two are from his Lu family, one is his younger brother, and the younger one is his nephew, both of whom are military generals.
A small half of the garrisons inside and outside the royal city of Nanyue were controlled by the LΓΌ family, and LΓΌ Jia himself was the minister of South Vietnam.
The Lu family, involving civil and military affairs, shows the power in South Vietnam.
These two generals were Lu Jia's backers, and they were actually taken.
Lu Jia was a little flustered at this time, and he was uneasy.
A cadre of the Lu clan was pushed closer, and the Han army that escorted them exerted force and made them kneel.
The two generals at the head did not kneel, and were severely knocked on the knees by the Han army scabbard behind them, and in the crisp sound, the kneecaps were directly shattered, and the screams rose.
Lu Jia gritted his teeth and said, "Champion Hou, I have seen your majesty...... I, Lu Jia, admit defeat. What do you want me to do? β
"You think I took down these people to blackmail you to do something, but you think of yourself quite seriously."
Huo Quzhi said: "Those who are disobedient will be decided." β
The lord of the country, Zhao Yingqi's expression changed greatly, and he opened his mouth to speak.
Lu Jia couldn't control his emotions anymore, and his face was full of shock.
Zhao Jiande's face turned pale, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
The people of the Lu family were even more shocked, and the voice shouting for help was loud: "The master of the family helps, Xiangguo saves me!" β
is asking for help from LΓΌ Jia, in the eyes of the LΓΌ family, LΓΌ Jia is under the Nanyue alone, almost omnipotent, otherwise he would not have abolished the emperor in the future.
However, Lu Jia has been unable to protect himself.
Huo Quzhi glanced at his younger brother Huo Guang.
The scene in front of him also has the intention of educating his younger brother.
What Lu Jia did was, in a sense, slightly similar to the future Huo Guang, who was powerful and abolished the emperor.
Lu Jia's fate, Huo Quzhi rehearsed Huo Guang first, and planted a seed in his heart.
Huo Guang didn't understand his brother's intentions at the moment, and watched calmly, but he felt that his brother was very majestic, and he was in and out of the Nanyue Palace as if he was in a no-man's land, and he admired it tightly in his heart.
The Han army was outside the palace hall, preparing for execution.
"Champion Hou...... I would like to surrender to the Han ...... sincerely," Lu Jia said in a trembling voice.
Fulu Zhi personally entertained Lu Jia, his hand raised his knife, the voice of begging for mercy stopped, and a scarlet sprinkled out!
The rest of the Han army moved at the same time.
All of them were beheaded, and the heads were all over the ground.
Huo Quzhi stared at Zhao Yingqi, Zhao Jiande and his son.
Zhao Jiande's heart embankment had been completely defeated, his knees weakened, and he fell to the ground.
Zhao Yingqi had some backbone, standing still, but his face was pale.
"Zhao Yingqi, you and I are old acquaintances."
"Back then, you were able to get the position of the lord of Nanyue, and it was Your Majesty who helped you, but do you remember how you promised Your Majesty?"
"It's only been a year since you came back to be the lord of the country. Before and after ascending the throne, he promised to return to the Han Dynasty twice, and then repeatedly, never going to Chang'an to meet him.
This time he said that he wanted to descend, and finally decided to go to Chang'an, but on the way, he listened to this Lu Jia's slander again, and repeated it again.
Three times, do you deserve to die? Should Lu Jia die? Huo Qu said sickly.
Zhao Yingqi was emotional, and cried: "I ...... Ben Wang ...... It's just that I don't give up the inheritance passed down by my Zhao ancestors. β
He added: "I am willing to hand over South Vietnam, and this time I will never repeat it." β
Huo Quzhi said: "You immediately report to the leaders of the surrounding Baiyue tribes, come to your royal city to gather, and say that there is something important to discuss, and when they come, you will cut off their heads and declare war on these tribes." β
Zhao Yingqi's heart suddenly jumped a few times, what a ruthless method.
This is to make him a villain of Baiyue and tear apart the Baiyue tribes from the inside.
Then the Han army came forward to clean up the mess, saving time and effort.
"I ...... How can you be sure that Huo Hou is willing to give me a way to live afterwards. Zhao Yingqi asked.
"There's no way to be sure, you've made the situation the way it is.
Your Majesty has given you a chance, but you are not sure, who do you blame? β
"I will give you seven days to finish what you have just explained.
Now, you first gather the shipwrights of South Vietnam, and send them to Hanzhong, where there is a shipyard and a large number of shipwrights are needed. β
Huo Quzhi said: "In addition, you show me the list of officials of various ministries in South Vietnam, the list of people who have entered and exited the palace, and the brief volume that records their identities and origins." β
Zhao Tuo, the first emperor of South Vietnam, is related to his son.
Huo Quzhi judged that the last few remnants of the vertical and horizontal road were also inseparable from South Vietnam.
He came to South Vietnam for two main reasons.
One is that the follow-up will be poisoned and used in the army, which will require South Vietnam to transit.
Another reason is to dig up another wave to see if South Vietnam has the last few remnants of the vertical and horizontal road.
He had sent people to South Vietnam to investigate, and he also had this in mind.
But the embroidered clothes who were in charge of the investigation, as well as Huo Quai, who came over just now and released his divine thoughts to cover the palace, did not find anything abnormal.
If there are really people in South Vietnam, they are also very deeply hidden and not easy to find.
Huo Qu's words fell, squinting at Zhao Yingqi.
