Chapter 953 Chang'an

When 50,000 troops and thousands of prisoners came to Chang'an together, Guo Congyi immediately knew that such a business was a buyer's market!

Just like scarce salt, in Guanzhong and Jingzhaofu, the portion is very expensive, with a kilogram of salt for hundreds of cents, but in Hezhongfu, which produces salt, the salt-rich kilogram of salt is only twenty cents.

He was so devastated that Chang'an City was no longer enough to defend. If he asked for a price, he would be asking for trouble.

So he immediately called on the people of the city to change their flags and flags, made hundreds of "Tang" flags, and then took the remaining thousands of troops out of the city to surrender.

"I don't know Mount Tai below. For a moment, the dust covered my heart. I actually tried to fight against the king's army. I deserved to die—"

Guo Congyi was so old that he bent down respectfully, and said with a smile on his face.

"This is the version of the thirteen counties of Jingzhao Prefecture, King Gongxian——"

Looking at the look of carrying a thorn in front of him, he looked at his gray beard. When Zhang Weiqing saw Guo Shouwen, Yang Tingzhang and others, he felt compassionate and showed unbearable expressions. The rabbit died and the fox was sad, and there was nothing else.

He smiled and said:

"The old generals were all their masters, so how could they be considered offended? Please get up quickly. The huge Jingzhao Mansion still needs to rely on the help of the old general!"

Now, Guo Congyi smiled and his voice was quite loud: "I have long admired the Daming I deployed. We have long been unable to see the rebellion of Song State. Now that the royal army of the court arrives, we will naturally make things right. I feel really happy, happy-"

As soon as these words were said, Zhang Weiqing did not react, but Wang Yanchao, Yang Tingzhang and others on the side showed an expression of unbearable look at him, and his eyes were vague.

They really can't say such explicit words.

But Zhang Weiqing felt it very much when he heard it. He laughed and said, "What the old general said is very true. The king's army came to "suppress Song and assist Zhou and rectify the trouble." If everyone in the world could be as clear as the old general, how could there be a war?"

The others naturally cooperated and applauded, while the officials of Jingzhao Prefecture all breathed a sigh of relief and their official positions were preserved. This was another common dynasty change.

Everyone in private began to discuss the taboos and laws of the new court, and was ready to adapt.

Zhang Weiqing didn't look at the version of the book carefully, just looked at 50,000 households and thirteen counties, and then surrounded by everyone, rode his horse and entered Chang'an City.

When he saw the Chang'an city wall, Zhang Weiqing shook his head and felt disappointed.

He was originally full of expectations, but the scene in front of him disappointed him.

The tall and majestic Chang'an City, the wide and deep moat was actually covered with water and grass and filth. The city wall was only two feet tall. There were weeds sparsely growing on the city wall. The city wall was gray and filled with potholes. Several broken blue bricks fell in the corners of the wall, and no one cared about it.

The wide city gates, the copper nails have rusted, and even the doors and feet are still damaged. There is no doubt that such a city is difficult to be an enemy of one unit.

Seeing his appearance, Guo Shouwen whispered: "During the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an was destroyed six times. Zhu Wen even demolished Chang'an's palaces, destroyed the city, and plundered Zhaozong to Luoyang. Han Jian, the governor of the Houyou Army, believed that the city was wide and sparsely populated, which was not conducive to defense, so he rebuilt and reduced it to a "new city", which is today's Chang'an."

"How many times can Chang'an be compared to Chang'an today?" Zhang Weiqing sighed.

"In the past, there were millions of people in Chang'an, but now the huge Chang'an has only ten thousand county under its jurisdiction, and the citizens are only one hundred thousand, which is not as good as one of the tenth ones in the prosperous Tang Dynasty."

Guo Shouwen's words were full of regrets. Daxing City, which had been around for hundreds of years, is now just like an ordinary prefecture and county, so lonely.

Hearing this, Zhang Weiqing shook his head and said nothing. Given the current situation in Chang'an, it is indeed not suitable for Kyoto, and Guanzhong is also ruined. The recovery of Chang'an is just a very strong political meaning.

"How can I walk on Yujie at will?" Looking at the streets several meters wide, Zhang Weiqing reacted suddenly and scolded him harshly.

Immediately, he dismounted himself and sent someone to wipe the Imperial Street. He walked through the narrow paths on both sides, and everyone could only follow.

Guo Congyi, Yang Tingzhang and others on the side looked at each other. The emperor was thousands of miles away, so why is it so particular?

This made them feel new again. For the first time, they felt the supremacy of imperial power. With Zhang Weiqing's cautiousness, they had to restrain their minds and carefully dismount and follow them.

Zhang Weiqing was full of respect and led the way silently in front of him. Naturally, others dared not disturb him. After entering the city, they could vaguely see the outline of Chang'an, the wide neighborhoods and the vertical planning, but they had not been repaired for a long time and were quite broken. Even the shops that crossed were visible along the streets. Chang'an, which was once clear and civilized by the boundaries of the market, has disappeared.

The joy in my heart is inexplicably less.

With the slogan of reviving the Tang Dynasty and the years of publicity, Zhang Weiqing believed it deeply and was eager to end such a chaotic end of time and return to the prosperous Tang Dynasty that once came to court forever, without picking up leavens on the road and not closing doors at night.

Chang'an is not just a city, but a political symbol, symbolizing the destiny of the Tang Dynasty.

Slap sex-

Suddenly, a fear that the sound of striking disturbed his thoughts, Zhang Weiqing came to his senses and looked at him. There were many people in the windows on both sides of the street, constantly slapping them and looking at him.

The eyes were full of desire, begging, and even panic.

"What's going on?" Zhang Weiqing narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice: "Why are the people so confined to their homes and begging for mercy?"

"This is what the last general arranged." Guo Congyi lowered his head slightly and said naturally: "The king has worked hard for many days before he arrived in Chang'an. These untouchables actually wanted to escape the city and avoid rewards, so we locked the doors and windows and sent someone to guard them."

Then, he said with a look of excellence: "In this way, it will be much more convenient for the King to reward him for making money, and there will be no one else."

Hearing this, Zhang Weiqing realized that it turned out that the people were worried that the Tang army would plunder Chang'an, so they were preparing to flee overnight. Guo Congyi was afraid that the people would escape, and the Tang army was afraid that no one could plunder, so they were not allowed to go out of their homes.

To put it bluntly, Guo Congyi was preparing to tie up the people of a city, regardless of their life and death, and allowed the Tang army to ruin and rob, just to please them.

Seeing Guo Congyi's flattering look, Yang Tingzhang, Wang Yanchao and others showing unbearable but still not objecting, Zhang Weiqing realized that this was a vassal state.

It is natural to regard the people as grass, rice, and livestock. Whether it is robbery or killing, it is natural, and it is even more normal to massacre the city.

"Absurd—" Zhang Weiqing said gritting his teeth: "How can my King of Tang Dynasty be like this? The robbers die."

"From today, these bad habits of vassal states must not be continued. You will also restrain your troops. If you commit a crime, no matter who you are, you will be severely punished-"

"Absurd, it's really absurd-"
