Chapter 517: Sacrifice

Bianliang of Yuguo, although Wei Siqi is already fifty years old, he has just sat on the throne and has behaved very properly. In private, some nobles say that they are royal nobles and indeed extraordinary people.

The slightly old main hall of Bianliang Palace, overlooking the plain on a hill, because the power of the Yu country swept the Central Plains, this hill also has a mysterious reputation. Inside the palace, faintly, it seems that the smell of blood of the previous emperor Wei Sinian has not completely faded. I don't know how many people have died in this place, and maybe the cracks in the stones are all bloodstains that can't be washed.

The weather in Bianliang is even colder, and before it enters winter, the palace has to make a fire to keep warm. In the firelight, the monarchs and ministers of Yu discussed for the future of Yu for a whole day.

After the discussion, Wei Siqi summoned Zhang Liang to face the saint alone. Zhang Liang was extremely prosperous and often met and talked with the new emperor of Yu. Wei Siqi has to ask Zhang Liang first before making a decision.

Zhang Liang took out a piece of paper with only one line of words: "Yan Yan is in the hands of the Emperor of the Tang Kingdom, he replied. This letter may have come from the Tang Emperor's own handwriting."

Wei Siqi took a look, and first felt that the emperor of a country, Wang Rong's handwriting was not very good, but when he thought that Wang Rong was a lowly martial artist, it would be good to be able to write.

The expression on Wei Siqi's face was very complicated. This Wang Rong's words are not very hostile, and they seem to have a sense of ridicule, but they always feel a certain sense of humiliation.

Zhang Liang said: "Yan Yan is just a little lady, Wang Yan shouldn't do anything to her."

Wei Siqi said in a deep voice, "He will take Yan Yan ...... will make Yanyan ......". c

Before he finished speaking, Wei Siqi's face had already appeared sickly red.

Zhang Liang pretended not to understand.

Wei Siqi said: "I am now the Emperor of Dayu, but I can't keep a prince's future daughter-in-law, hey......

Zhang Liang sighed: "Your Majesty has such a heart for Yan Yan, it is already a blessing for her to cultivate."

Zhang Liang said with another loyal look: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about Yanyan for the time being, now that Dayu has lost a large amount of territory, the situation is still dangerous, and Your Majesty should put state affairs first."

"It's all those wolf sons who are ambitious, after killing my father and mother, taking the throne of my family, and defeating Dayu so badly!" Wei Siqi showed hatred on his face, turned his head and said with relief, "But now that Zhang Gong and Wei Dushuai are worried about me, Dayu will definitely regain his strength."

Zhang Liang was very helpful when he heard this, and said, "The Zhang family has always been loyal to Dayu, and the virtuous monarch is in power, and the ministers will not dare to slack off."

Wei Siqi said: "That puppet Tang Emperor invaded our territory and seized the crown princess, one day, he will be ashamed!"

Zhang Liang muttered: "The minister thinks that he should not act rashly, Dayu should stabilize himself for the time being, and it is best to wait for the puppet Tang Emperor to die."

Wei Siqi said dissatisfiedly, "Then the puppet Tang Emperor called Zhang Gong jealous like this?"

Zhang Liang was noncommittal, a large area of territory in Yuzhou had just been taken away by others by force, and the others did not need to be explained, and they were willing to defeat and lose.

Zhang Liang persuaded with good words: "Yan Yan is just a daughter of the Zhang family, although she is not a nobleman, she is not important to the puppet Tang Emperor. If Your Majesty cares about Yan Yan and allows the minister to find a way to redeem some cattle and sheep?"

Wei Siqi frowned and said, "The Tang State and the Yu State have been fighting for many years, and the puppet Tang Emperor is willing to negotiate peace?"

Zhang Liang said confidently: "As long as a person wins, he will be generous, not to mention the actions of the puppet Tang Emperor, as long as he gives enough benefits, he is very likely to be willing to exchange. However, Yan Yan has been captured and returned, I am afraid that she will not be blessed to marry the crown prince, and your majesty should choose another noble lady as the crown princess."

The crown prince Wei Li on the side immediately said, "As long as she can come back, Gu will never dislike her, she is still the crown princess of Dayu."

Zhang Liang let out a long sigh when he heard this.

Wei Siqi became the Emperor of Dayu overnight, Wei Li became the crown prince, and he knew that there would be no shortage of beauties to accompany him in the future, but he always felt that Yanyan was the closest. Yanyan's pure and unintentional laughter is still in her ears.

"Ugh." Wei Siqi looked sad, and then said to Zhang Liang, "Redeem Yan Yan at any cost, as long as she comes back, I will immediately point her to the crown princess."

Zhang Liang's eyes lit up, and he immediately bowed, "The minister must do his best."

He or

Xu already knew that Xiao Xuan could get the favor of the prince, and no other woman could get it.

Zhang Yunshu presided over the specific deployment of the military division, all parts of the armed guard army marched eastward in batches, and the reorganized Tang army established the Yi Guard, the Wei Guard, the Xiao Guard Army and the Imperial Guard, and the Imperial Guard, with the Imperial Guard, the Wu Guard, the Xiao Guard, the Wei Guard Army and the Yi Guard, the Five Armies established the Five Armies Governor's Office, and abolished the Dadu Governor's Office.

The guards were given the order of "Serving the Guard", thinking that they were serving the Guard, and the number of soldiers was uncertain, tentatively set at 20,000. The original Xiaojiewei people were promoted to the general of the Xiaojiewei, Wang Xu was promoted to the commander of the Jiewei, and Zhang Xu was the deputy commander of the Jiewei.

At the same time, the Zhulu Tang Army was reorganized, and Yin He, the chief general of the Yongzhou Army, commanded the Yongzhou Army, tentatively appointing ten divisions. Lang Zeqing, the commander-in-chief of the state army, has tentatively set seven divisions. Zhou Yi, the commander-in-chief of the Jizhou Army, tentatively set six divisions. Meng Song, the commander of the Youzhou Army, tentatively set eleven divisions. The commander of the Yizhou Army, Gou Anli, tentatively set nine divisions.

The subordinate divisions of the state armies are regular field armies, and the soldiers are selected from the county armies, the county armies are selected from the county armies, and the county armies select young and strong soldiers from the townships under the counties.

In the current territory of Yuzhou, the Yongzhou Army has six divisions, the Bingzhou Army has four divisions, and all six divisions of the Jizhou Army have come.

Wang Rong took Xiaojiewei and the Fifth Army out of Chenliu County, stationed the Sixth Division of Yongzhou in Luoyang, and stationed the Fourth Division of Bingzhou to guard Xuanmen Pass. The rest of the state armies and divisions all accompanied and besieged Bianliang.

When Wang Rong arrived in Bianliang with his army, the first snow of the second year of Yuanwu in the Tang Dynasty had already fallen. The inside and outside of Bianliang City are covered in silver, and the moat outside Bianliang City has faint signs of freezing.

The coolness of early winter did not affect the heat of the atmosphere of the Tang Army at all. When Wang Rong's emperor Luan drove the guard of honor to the Jinming Pond outside the Wansheng Gate, in front of the public, the civil and military officials who greeted him fell to their knees.

The soldiers of the Tang army fell to their knees one after another, and a long shouting voice was heard into the carriage: "The last general and others welcome the saint!"

"My Emperor lives forever!"

"Chief!"

"Chief!"

"Again!"

Wang Rong watched it from the car and felt that the etiquette of today's ministers was extraordinarily pious. The crowd pressed their hands to the ground, and their heads touched the ground for a long time, and they bowed three times in a row.

After a while, another military general said loudly: "Congratulations to me on the Tang Dynasty! Martial arts are added to the sea! The majesty is terrifying!"

Wang Rong stood on the frame of the car, looked at the Tang Army soldiers who were kneeling, and nodded to Wang Xu on the side. Wang Xu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "There is a decree in the saint, and all the soldiers are flat!" Enter the camp!"

At this time, there is also a soundtrack, the big drum on the arrow tower, the sound is quite rhythmic, the drum is very grand, Wang Rong's emperor's honor guard suddenly feels more majestic. All the soldiers shouted and hugged each other, and the guards in neat clothes and armor in front and back were guarded, and the guards and foot guards of the imperial guards followed into the camp, and the momentum was really big enough.

After entering the camp gate, he went up to the main road of the barracks. There are crowds of people on both sides of the road, the soldiers along the street saw the emperor's guard of honor, some people knelt down, and for a time the soldiers fell to the ground one by one.

Wang Rong led his troops to the outside of Bianliang City, and the soldiers of the Tang Army bowed to the emperor's guard of honor as if worshipping a god.

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

The sound of the wave resounded, as if the whole world of Bianliang City was in a hurry.

Such a scene made Wang Rong feel like he was in control of everything, completely above the mortal world. He could feel that at this time, the soldiers were convinced to recognize his imperial power, and no one dared to question his god-like status, and the battle to destroy the Yu Kingdom would come to an end at this time, although the process was relatively difficult, but it was completely worth it.

Behind the long line, there was also a prisoner cart with Ling Huyi on it, which was escorted to Bianliang in full view of everyone.

In the barracks, of course, it is impossible to throw eggs and leaves into the prisoner car in the film and television drama, one is that there are strict orders in the barracks, and the other is that the soldiers are reluctant to give up eggs, which is a rare thing.

The soldiers were just talking about this prisoner, he was the first tiger general of Jing State, and my Tang Emperor annihilated the Jing Army's iron cavalry and captured its commander Yunyun alive.

But something that happened soon would make Ling Huyi quickly famous in Bianliang. Wang Rongqin

brought people with him and dragged him to the Wansheng Gate of Bianliang City.

At a safe distance from the Wansheng Gate, the team of the Guardians stopped at the Stone Cannon position. At this time, the scene is not as orderly as just now, and it seems a little chaotic. Because no one knows why Wang Rong did not return to the big tent of the Chinese army, but came here.

Zhang Xu immediately mobilized manpower and found table cases, pigs, cattle and sheep, incense and wine and fruit tribute.

In the crowd, some soldiers were very excited, and they raised their heads and shouted to the sky, "Brother, brothers have brought the enemy to pay tribute to you!"

For a while, all kinds of voices came and went, but Wang Rong didn't say anything. Although the Tang army wiped out the Jing cavalry in the first battle, the Jing cavalry was not vegetarian, killing tens of thousands of Tang cavalry, and nearly 10,000 people were seriously injured.

Wang Rong personally lit the incense and said, "Deputy Envoy Zhang, take Linghu Yi's head. Let's pay tribute to the souls of the soldiers who died in the war with the Jing army!"

Zhang Yu said, "The Holy Lord is right, Jing Jun has killed too many of us."

Zhang Xuan immediately ordered a few guards to drag Ling Huyi up. Seeing that he was escorted with his hands and feet tied to the bracelets and anklets, Zhang Yutie blushed and grabbed Ling Huyi's messy hair and pushed him to the open space in front of the altar.

Ling Huyi suffered a lot along the way, but at this time, he stood coldly and looked up at the sky, without saying a word.

"Get down on your knees!"

Seeing Ling Huyi's posture, Zhang Yu roared angrily, and then kicked Ling Huyi's calf.

Ling Huyi's body was crooked, gritting his teeth and not kneeling. Zhang Yu was even more annoyed when he saw this, and was about to kick again, when Wu Luo walked up and slapped his palm on Ling Huyi's shoulder with a "bang", Wu Luo, who was a whole head higher, pressed down with his huge palm.

I saw that Ling Huyi's face was white, his eyes were round, and his body was short.

"Ahh

Ling Huyi let out a loud cry and knelt down on his legs. Tears welled up in his eyes, and he cried out, "I don't accept it! I'm a terrible ghost, and I won't let you go! I will avenge the 30,000 warriors who died in vain!"

The shout was heart-rending, and it looked terrible on this empty plain.

Wang Rong said coldly: "When you slaughtered the defenseless people of my Tang Dynasty, you should think that you have this day, and you are innocent of death!"

Ling Huyi scolded: "A group of grass people, how can they be considered people?!"

Zhang Gengxiao said quietly in the back: "The Jing State Imperial Court will also kill Ling Huyi's entire family for us, which can be regarded as deserved."

"Whew!"

Zhang Xuan pulled out the ring head knife on his waist, pressed Ling Huyi's head down with one hand, and held the sword with the other. Ling Hu Yi's eyes widened, and he couldn't shout at this time, he saw the dazzling ring head knife close to his neck, and his eyes finally showed fear. A cruel person is not necessarily not afraid of death.

However, Ling Huyi finally didn't ask for mercy, after all, it was useless.

"Ahh

Ling Hu Yi trembled and screamed in pain. Zhang Xuan took the ring-headed knife and began to saw it when Ling Huyi was alive, and the screaming stopped for a while, and the surrounding soldiers all changed their faces when they heard the movement.

Zhang Xu's face was splashed with blood, and he put his head on the incense table, kneeling on the ground to worship. Wang Rong also bowed to the spiritual seat.

Zhang Xue picked up a pot of wine and poured it on the ground, then his face was bloody, he raised his head and drank it, and never spoke again.

After paying tribute to the fallen soldiers, Wang Biao left the altar and came to a stone cannon, Zhang Xuan put Ling Huyi's head in the cannon basket, Wang Rong personally operated, and threw Ling Huyi's head into Bianliang City.
