Chapter 76: Emperor Jing's Wrath(1/2)

Chapter 76 Emperor Jing’s Angry

Yu Shan's head was buzzing, as if it was struck by lightning.

"You, you..." Yu Shan was very eloquent, but he was stuttering at this moment, stuttering very hard.

"That's the end if you dare to resist the heavenly soldiers!" Li Guanghu's eyes flipped, his brilliance shone, looked at Yu Shan, and said coldly: "If you dare to resist the heavenly soldiers, this is the end if you will!"

Taking a long breath and forcing himself to calm down, Yu Shan asked, "You have offended my territory for no reason. Although I, Minyue, are not as powerful as the great man, there are many warriors. You will definitely pay a heavy price!"

"Haha!" Li Guang laughed to the sky, carved his beard and flew away, extremely powerful. He pointed his hand at the corpse on the ground and said, "You go over and see clearly! How many warriors do you have, you can tell at a glance."

Although Yu Shan did not understand Li Guang's intention, he looked at Li Guang and knew that it must have a deep meaning, so he had to go forward. When he came to the pile of corpses, he couldn't help but be stunned, and his throat seemed to be choking. After a long time, he shouted out: "You are actually slaughtering unarmed surrendered soldiers!"

Yu Shan had good eyesight, and at a glance, he knew that many Minyue soldiers had slaughtered the Han army after surrendering. Because they looked frightened and their eyes were full of horror. Although they were dead, this expression was even more obvious.

"Who told them to be enemies with the Han Dynasty? Those who are enemies with the Han Dynasty will die!" Li Guang said coldly: "If you know the current affairs, hurry back and tell Zou Ying to open the city to surrender!"

The tone of voice is not high, but it is full of power and every word is like thunder, which makes Yu Shan dazed again.

"Zou Gao is so unfair!" Yu Shan, who was shocked and suspicious, suddenly remembered what Zou Gao said. They did not even kill a hundred Han troops. This seems to be true. Among the corpses here, most of them were surrendered Minyue soldiers, which means they did not fight to the death and surrendered as soon as they saw that the war was unfavorable.

An army without fighting will not win a battle, no matter how well equipped or well-trained an army is, it will not be possible to kill hundreds of Han troops.

Now, he finally believed Zou Gao's words, it was a bit too late.

"You're good at it? You're good at it and go back. The handsome man is waiting for you." Li Guang's tone was cold.

The more I look at it on the battlefield, the more I feel scared. Yu Shan seemed to be wandering in the gates of hell, and wanted to leave early. When he heard this, he turned his horse's head and galloped towards the way he came.

Li Guang slapped his horse and followed.

Back to Pucheng, under the leadership of Li Guang, Yu Shan came to the General's Mansion. As soon as he entered the General's Mansion, he saw Zhou Yang kneeling in the middle, and Zhu Maichen and the generals knelt on the side of the hatchback.

Cheng Bushi, Gongsun He, Gongsun Jian, Qin Wuhui and others all had powerful expressions and murderous auras. All the auras they had cultivated on the battlefield were released, like ferocious beasts, which was very terrifying.

Yu Shan saw it in his eyes, was shocked in his heart, and his eyes fell on Zhou Yang.

Today, Zhou Yang did not wear military uniforms, but was wearing Yanju clothes, which was extremely relaxed. He looked like a handsome young man, but he didn't expect that he would be the Marshal Zhou who had defeated the 500,000 Huns.

"Yu Shan has seen the commander!" Yu Shan did not dare to be rude at all, so he hurriedly stepped forward and greeted Zhou Yang.

"Forgive!" Zhou Yang waved his hand, stopped at him and asked, "Zou Ying sent you here as a lobbyist, right? He wanted you to say that I would withdraw my troops, right?"

"Uh!" Yu Shan told Zhou Yang before he could speak. This matter was difficult to deal with. Yu Shan was shocked and made a sound of grinding teeth. He cheered up and said with a smile: "The Grand Marshal is a clear understanding, and is here to come for this matter. The ancestor followed Emperor Gaozu to pacify the world. Emperor Gaozu thought that his ancestor had a little contribution and gave his ancestor the king of Minyue. For decades, Minyue has been serving the Han Dynasty carefully and has not missed it. I wonder why the General added troops?"

Although Minyue was part of Baiyue, it was different from Nanyue. During the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Tuo blocked the Five Ridge Passage, and the Qin army did not return to the Central Plains. The tribal chief Yao of Minyue once helped Liu Bang pacify the world and accumulated military achievements. After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang was named King of Minyue.

"Is there really no mistake?" Zhou Yang's eyes rolled, his eyes shining brightly, and his calmness was swept away.

"The Great Marshal's Psychological Review!" Zou Ying dared not deny his family affairs.

"Hmph!" Zhou Yang snorted coldly and asked: "For decades, you, Minyue, have been the most restless. You either raised an army to attack Dongou or attack Nanyue. Do you take the imperial court seriously? Liu Bi's prince Liu Ju is a guest at Zou Ying. To harm the great man, why don't you hand him over to the imperial court?"

"The general is wrong! Liu Ju is buried in his name, and the king is not careful for a moment, so he mistakenly regards Liu Ju as a good person. It is a sin!" Yu Shan quickly rejected. Now that the Han army is approaching, if he finds a license for Zhou Yang again, everything will be over.

"How dare you tell lies in front of me!" Zhou Yang slapped his right hand heavily on the short desk, making a "bang" sound, and Yu Shan was shocked, as if the slap was not on the short desk, but on his heart.

"Zou Ying and Liu Bi are brothers of different surnames, and he doesn't even recognize Liu Ju? Who would believe you?" Zhou Yang's eyes flashed, and he stared at Yu Shan.

Zhou Yang did not let go of his momentum, and Yu Shan couldn't stand it anymore. He felt that Zhou Yang's eyes were like a sharp sword, piercing his heart.

“…”

Liu Bi and Zou Ying were brothers who became loyal brothers. This matter spread all over the world and no one could deny it. Can Zou Ying not recognize Liu Ju? Yu Shan was speechless.

"The great Han thought of Liu Ju's contribution to the Fujian and Yue, and he would not pursue the matter. Zou Ying was not only unhappy, but instead became even more powerful. He dared to take Guo Jie in this time. What else do you have to say?" Zhou Yang stared at Yu Shan with a calm face.

Guo Jie is a hundred times more dangerous than Liu Ju. Once he is determined by Zhou Yang, he will be beaten into a river of blood, and the Han Dynasty will do whatever he wants. This matter must be denied quickly. Yu Shan changed his mind and said, "The general is wrong! Guo Jie has not arrived in Minyue! If Guo Jie dares to arrive in Minyue, he will definitely hand him over to the Han Dynasty!"

"You dare to argue!" Zhou Yang shouted sharply, as if a thunderclap sounded in his ears. Yu Shan couldn't help but tremble and wondered if Zhou Yang had found evidence? This is unlikely, this matter must not be admitted, even if it was beaten to death.

"There are gods three feet above your head, and the sky cannot deceive you!" Zhou Yang's words made people confused. What does Guo Jie's escape have to do with gods?

Just when everyone was surprised, Zhou Yang said, "I'll make a bet with you. If Guo Jie is not in Minyue, I will give you my head! If Guo Jie is in Minyue, you will give me your head! If you agree, we will ask someone to do a ritual and ask God to testify!"

For modern people, it is not a matter of taking swearing seriously. For the ancients at that time, it was an insurmountable taboo. Guo Jie was clearly in Minyue, and even if Yu Shan had the courage to make this bet, he would turn his mouth into a round shape.

"Dare you, or don't?" Zhou Yang asked urged.

A cold sweat oozed out of Yu Shan's forehead. He didn't want to admit it, but he didn't dare to make a bet and could only say, "Master, why bother?"

"You have a ghost in your heart!" Li Guang scolded coldly.

Yu Shan was shocked and dared not refuse to admit it: "The Grand Marshal is wise, and Guo Jie is indeed in Minyue. The Grand Marshal knows it. Guo Jie is hiding. The Grand King just learned that he would send him to meet the Grand Marshal and ask the Grand Marshal to send a master to capture Guo Jie in one fell swoop."

My mind was not slow, so I avoided the important ones.

Unfortunately, his opponent is Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang sneered: "Don't ramble! Go back and tell Zou Ying, hand over Guo Jie, and spare you all! If you don't, you will all die!"

"Ah!" Zou Yingda was surprised and asked, "Master, are you just spared us?"

"Nonsense!" Zhou Yang shouted: "How many things have you done in Fujian Yue that are harmful to the heavens? Again and again, you dare to take in the imperial offenders. If you let you go, it would be that the heavens have no eyes and will bring disaster to the Han Dynasty! Instead of letting you become enemies with the Han Dynasty in the future, it would be better to solve this problem once and for all!"

Although it was not said that it would destroy Minyue, the meaning was already in it.

Among the Baiyue, Minyue was the most restless. If the Han Dynasty took advantage of the Han-Xiong War and made a rebellion in the south, it would be difficult for the Han Dynasty to deal with it. Instead of doing this, it would be better to take this opportunity to take over the Minyue.

“…”

This is the most serious thing the Han Dynasty said to Minyue in decades. For decades, Minyue has been very dishonest, either attacking Nanyue or attacking Dongou. The Han Dynasty intervened several times, at most it was a scolding and threatening thing, and never said that it would destroy Minyue.

Zhou Yang is not a threat, but a fact. All important places like Pucheng were occupied by the Han army, and the determination to destroy Minyue was thus seen.

If Guo Jie is handed over and Zhou Yang retreats his troops, Yu Shan will agree in helplessness. However, if Guo Jie is handed over and they are spared, Zou Ying will definitely not hand over.

Zhou Yang is a smart man, how could he say such things? It is like saying that this is like forcing Zou Ying to fight to the death. Why is this?

I was anxious to understand, Yu Shan opened his mouth and was about to speak, but interrupted Zhou Yang: "I will give Zou Ying a month. This month, I will wait for him in Pucheng. You can go back! Take the gift you brought back together."

Whether to retreat or not is one thing, and whether to accept gifts is another thing. Zhou Yang didn't even look at the gifts and asked him to take them back, which shows that Zhou Yang's attitude is very firm and he is determined to destroy Minyue.

The Han Dynasty was determined to destroy the Minyue, and the Minyue was no match for the Han Dynasty at all, and the fate of the Minyue was already doomed.

Yu Shan felt like the end of the world was coming, and his heart sank. Under Li Guang's urging, he had to walk outside the commander's mansion. His legs seemed to be filled with lead, extremely heavy and difficult to move.

As soon as Yu Shan left, Cheng Buzhi laughed and said, "Master, you are really good at speaking. If you say this, Zou Ying will not be able to fight."

"Yes! It's almost impossible to conquer Minyue without fighting. If you fight quickly, Minyue will definitely perish, but the Minyue army is scattered everywhere, so it will be too troublesome to clear it out in the future." Zhu Maichen nodded and praised: "In this way, Zou Ying can only fight to the death! One month is enough for him to mobilize troops!"

"Tell me my order and order the Kuaiji garrison to come to Pucheng!" Zhou Yang waved his hand and stopped them from talking again: "We have to do two things now, one is to wait, and the other is to choose a battlefield!"

Fujian King City.

"What did you say? Zhou Yang is so arrogant!" Zhou Yang's words were the most harsh words in decades, and Zou Ying could hardly believe his ears.

Zou Ying thought that he took Guo Jie in. As long as he refused to admit his account, even if the Han Dynasty wanted to attack Min Yue, he would not find a license. If it was a last resort, it would be like killing Liu Ju. If Guo Jie was handed over, he could resolve the matter. Last year, Zhou Yafu led a 100,000 army. He killed Liu Ju and sent an envoy to apologize, and the matter would be over.

He absolutely did not expect that Zhou Yang's conditions would be to spare his life. If he could not hand over Guo Jie, Minyue would perish.

"Zhou Yang, you are so arrogant!" Zou Ying was angry and resentful.

After hearing Yu Shan's words, Guo Jie felt relieved. Isn't Zhou Yang helping him? If Guo Jie handed over, Min Yue would die. If he didn't get married, he would die. Zou Ying would definitely not get married. He could live in Min Yue with peace of mind.

As the Han Dynasty army was approaching, Zou Ying had to turn to him for help. Guo Jie became more important and the courtesy he received was even more grand.

"Send an order to mobilize all the troops, I will fight to the death with Zhou Yang!" Zou Ying knew that he had no way out, and he could only fight hard and have a way out.

But he didn't know that his order was exactly what Zhou Yang wanted. He had fallen into Zhou Yang's calculations.

Chang'an, Weiyang Palace, and Yangxin Palace.

Emperor Jing knelt on the short table. The important ministers such as Master Yan, Shen Gong, Zhou Yafu, Dong Zhongshu, Yan Zhu, Feng Jing, and Zhidu knelt on the opposite Emperor Jing.

"Zhou Yang handled it well!" Emperor Jing's frown spread out and said with a long sigh: "What I am most worried about is that Sui Yang cannot conquer for a long time, the matter will be big, and the imperial court will be completely defeated. Zhou Yang went down in one go. Once this matter spreads, the princes and kings will definitely be frightened and will never dare to cause trouble again!"

The attack on Suiyang was both a challenge and an opportunity for the court.

Suiyang City is tall and thick, easy to defend but difficult to attack, which is a huge challenge. If this matter can be settled quickly, it will become an opportunity for the court. Taking advantage of this, it will be a good opportunity for the princes and kings. If they know that the court has an elite force who can defeat all the attacks and invincible battles, they will be honest.

"I originally thought that even if Zhou Yang is good at using troops and the new army is good at fighting, it will take some time to kill thousands of thousands to calm down. Unexpectedly, in one go, there will be only hundreds of casualties, which is great!" Emperor Jing smiled happily.

Suiyang is a famous city in the world. It is already very good that thousands of casualties have been put down. Zhou Yang only solved the problem with hundreds of casualties. Emperor Jing expected that he could not help but be unhappy.

You should know that these hundreds of casualties were from the Liang army, not the Han army. One of the Han army was not dead, which can be said to be a miracle.

"Yes! Yes!" Lord Father Yan and the others exclaimed in unison.

"Guo Jie fled to Minyue, and Zhou Yang led his army to chase him. The Han Dynasty should take this opportunity to take Minyue and don't leave this disaster again!" Emperor Jing raised his sword eyebrows and showed his power: "For decades, Minyue has been the most restless. It's not that the Han Dynasty doesn't want to take it, but that there is no chance. Now, the opportunity has come, and you must not miss it!"

No one has any objections to this statement.

"Your Majesty, it's time to take over the Minyue!" Master Yan was a very visionary person and immediately said: "I think it's not difficult to take over the Minyue. Although the terrain of Minyue is complex, mountainous and jungle, it is not convenient for the army to move, but Zhou Yang knows that the army is going to recover Minyue. Therefore, the court should start to prepare for the governance of Minyue."

"Emperor, what the Lord Master said is very true!" Shen Gong immediately agreed: "Chu State once owned the land of Lingnan, but Chu State did not govern the land of Lingnan. Although the land of Lingnan is vast, it has not become a support for Chu State. The Han Dynasty should learn from the lessons of Chu State and govern Lingnan well."

"It makes sense!" Emperor Jing expressed his deep agreement: "The State of Chu collected the land of Lingnan, and only collected some tributes, and did not provide soldiers or food for Chu. If the State of Chu was well managed, the State of Chu would be stronger. At that time, if we go north to the Central Plains to compete for hegemony, the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period might not be the strongest!"

This is an indisputable historical fact and no one will object. If you get land and population, you must manage it well and let it play a role.

"Yan Zhu, select a group of personnel and hurry to Minyue immediately. As soon as Zhou Yang takes over Minyue, you will start to manage it." Emperor Jing looked at Yan Zhu.
