Chapter 881: Heart-to-Heart Conversation (Part 3)

Three days later, a ceremony was held in the city of Handan, Zhao State.

In this ceremony, Han Wangran, the former monarch of Korea, officially announced that he had revoked the title of king and became a courtier of Zhao State from then on.

And Zhao Dan also accepted Han Wangran's surrender and named him Han Jun, with a fief in Yangle County, Liaodong County.

In addition, Han Wangran also openly appealed to Han An, the Korean crown prince who was still resisting, and the Korean soldiers and ministers around Han An, hoping that they could lay down their arms and surrender to Zhao and become Zhao's courtiers together with Han Wangran.

I have to say that Han Wangran has been the monarch of South Korea for so many years is not covered, after Han Wangran's appeal was issued, many cities began to surrender to Zhao State one after another, and the territory of the resistance army continued to shrink at a speed like ice and snow melting.

Even there were some Korean officials and people who fought hard to defend the city, but those not tall city walls were almost completely useless in the face of the earth-shattering thunder of the Zhao army.

In fact, even if there was no earth-shattering thunder, in front of the Zhao army, which had a complete siege weapon in the era of cold weapons, these small cities would only fall a day or two late.

Although it was still summer, Lian Po had already led a large army to sweep across the entire South Korea like an autumn wind sweeping away leaves, and firmly surrounded the last resistance of the Koreans, Han Prince An and the remaining remnants of more than 10,000 Korean troops in Wancheng.

The Korean prince obviously still has some backbone, even if his subordinates keep running away and joining the enemy, he still hasn't given up and is still stubbornly persevering.

It's just that this kind of insistence obviously has taken on a bit of the meaning of being a mantis arm as a car in everyone's eyes.

As long as Wancheng is conquered again, then Korea will be destroyed in the true sense.

In the siege of Wancheng, Lian Po once sent a Korean minister who had taught Han Prince An and had now surrendered to Zhao as a messenger into the city to persuade him to surrender.

Then Lian Po saw the head of the Korean minister hanging high above Wancheng.

After seeing this scene, Lian Po could only sigh helplessly.

"Fortunately, it was the Koreans who sent it in......"

It is strange to say that the city of Wancheng has been owned by Chu, Qin, Han and other countries in the past few decades, and it stands to reason that it should not be the kind of city that resists too resolutely.

But this time, General Lian Po encountered a problem in Wancheng.

As a well-known steel handicraft base, Wancheng has a large number of young and strong laborers in the army, and at the same time, there are enough craftsmen to support it, and the walls are tall enough to ignore the blasting of earth-shattering thunder.

In fact, under the defense of the Wancheng army and civilians, the Zhao army did not even get the opportunity to dig a pit and bury mines under the walls of Wancheng.

After a whole month of fierce siege, Lian Po, who saw that he still could not be breached, changed his strategy and prepared to besiege Wancheng and trap the city alive.

According to information obtained from Korean traitors, the food in Wancheng could only be supplied for two months at most.

Therefore, Lian Po confidently wrote this sentence in the fold sent back to Handan: "Before the end of the year, South Korea will become history!" ”

……

"Do you still want to be a big man in history?" This is what Yiqu Sheng said to Tu Xian.

Tu Xian nodded very seriously, and then asked with some puzzlement: "But does it have anything to do with the fact that we are arresting these Qiang people here and becoming famous in history?" ”

"Of course it does!" Yiqu Sheng said viciously: "If we don't arrest these Qiang people and ask for directions, how can we find that dead traitor of Yiqu Bo?" ”

Tu Xian thought about it for a while, and seemed to think that this sentence made some sense, but obviously he still looked a little puzzled: "If that's the case, it's enough to arrest one or two of his leaders to ask for directions, why do you want to arrest the entire tribe?" ”

At this moment, Tu Xian and Yiqu Sheng were leading a thousand-strong Zhao army cavalry, escorting a Qiang tribe of more than 5,000 people, slowly advancing towards the east.

Yiqu Sheng snorted and said to Tu Xian: "You should know that our general is going to conquer the Western Regions in the future. ”

Tu Xian nodded and said, "Of course, I also hope to be able to follow the general to conquer the Western Regions, and then go to see what kind of rest the empire is!" ”

Yiqu Sheng smiled: "You should know that it is thousands of miles away to go to the Western Regions, and if you can't have enough supplies, then it will be difficult to stick to there." ”

Tu Xian continued to nod: "General, what you said makes sense, but ...... That doesn't have anything to do with these Qiang people, right? ”

"Of course it does!" Yi Qusheng looked at Tu Xian with eyes that hated iron and steel, and fully enjoyed the pleasure of being crushed by his IQ before saying, "Think about it, as long as you build a few cities in Qilian Mountain?" As long as there is a city, then the people who come and go can have a place to supply, and in this way, the Central Plains and the Western Regions will be completely connected. ”

"At that time, we will be able to sell the silk from the Central Plains to the Western Regions, or even further west, and then make a lot of money from those Westerners, understand? The generals have said that this road will be called the Silk Road in the future! ”

Tu Xian nodded as if he didn't understand, and suddenly said: "Since Westerners have a lot of money in their hands, then we just need to go and grab it directly, and what kind of deal can we do with them." ”

Yiqu Sheng was dumbfounded.

After a few breaths, Yi Qusheng's riding boots kicked heavily on Tu Xian's buttocks, kicking Tu Xian off the horse.

"You talk a lot!"

Tu Xian smiled, and got back on the horse, for him who had lived on horseback for decades, Yiqu Sheng's kick could not cause any harm at all.

"General Yiqu, you haven't answered me why we want to arrest these Qiang people."

Yi Qusheng rolled his eyes, and after thinking about it, he decided to explain patiently, after all, that would have Li Mu's usual demeanor: "Didn't you say just now, if you want to connect the Western Regions, you must build a city, and if you want to build a city, you must have manpower, use your pig brain to think about it, where does this manpower come from?" Of course, if you wish, let your fellow Huns go and build a city. ”

Tu Xian looked at the long list of Hun captives in front of him, and then carefully recalled the scenes he saw in Xincheng last year, and couldn't help but shudder, and said with a dry smile: "General Yiqu said that he laughed, what Huns and Yiqu people, they are all Zhao people now!" But general, I think there are still a few people arrested this time, and we will continue to catch them in a few days, yes, the more caught the better! ”

Tu Xian gritted his teeth, his face was hideous, and his eyes changed when he looked at these Qiang people.

After a while, Tu Xian remembered another question: "General Yiqu, didn't you follow General Zhao Kuo to fight the people of Qin, why did you come to the general's side again?" ”

Yiqu Sheng laughed twice, looked left and right, and then whispered to Tu Xie.

In Li Mu's initial arrangement, Yiqu Sheng should indeed follow Zhao Kuo to be responsible for guarding Beidi County, and harass the people of Qin by the way.

But after Li Mu left, the contradictions between Yiqusheng and Zhao Kuo began to emerge.

As a very "orthodox" Zhao Guoren, Zhao Kuo actually has some prejudice against Hu people like Yiqusheng in his heart.

The reason why Li Mu was not prejudiced was because he had been stationed in Gaoquesai with the Hu soldiers at the border for many years and dealt with them.

But Zhao Kuo from Handan obviously did not have this kind of environment, so Zhao Kuo preferred to use those Zhao cavalry generals who were "orthodox" like Zhao Kuo.

Under such circumstances, the Hu generals and officers were inevitably snubbed and excluded.

Half a month after Li Mu left, the entire army was basically the final say of General Zhao and the officers, and Hu generals like Yi Qusheng had been completely marginalized.

So Yiqu Sheng simply applied for an appointment in a fit of anger, and it happened that Zhao Kuo looked at Yi Qu Sheng, the head of the Hu people, and was also a little eye-catching, and the two sides hit it off, and Yi Qu Sheng came to Li Mu's side.

"This ......" Tu Xian couldn't help but be a little stunned, and said after a while: "But we are all from Zhao State." ”

"Zhao Guoren is right." Yi Qusheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "But people like General Zhao Kuo actually don't like us very much. In fact, General Zhao Kuo is not bad, when I went to Handan a few times ago, few of those Longtai ministers in Handan looked up to me, don't look polite on the surface, but that kind of discriminatory look, hehe...... Damn, I want to beat them up when I think about it. ”

Tu Xian couldn't help but say angrily: "We are all working for the king, why should they discriminate against us so much? ”

Yiqusheng shook his head and said, "You don't know, I also saw Handan people discriminating against Jinyang people, Jinyang people discriminating against Zhongshan people, Zhongshan people discriminating against Shangdang people, Shangdang people discriminating against Hedong people, Hedong people discriminating against Xihe people......"

Tu Xian was stunned when he heard this, his mouth couldn't help but open wide, and he said after a long time: "But I have also been in contact with a lot of Zhao people, why haven't I seen this problem?" ”

Yi Qu Sheng sneered and said, "That's because you're too young to climb high enough. Look at it, when you have a certain status, you will slowly feel this discrimination. ”

Tu Xian thought for a long time, and then realized: "So general, you mean that if we, the Hu people, want to be big officials in the Zhao State in the future, we may be opposed by those orthodox Zhao people?" ”

Yi Qusheng nodded and said, "That's it." ”

Tu Xian snorted very unhappily and said, "Is there no solution?" ”

Yi Qusheng said with a smile: "Of course there is, the current king is very wise, I think as long as he can make a contribution, the king will definitely not hesitate to reward." ”

Tu Xian said: "Don't lie to me, I was also a person who served as the personal guard of the Aries King back then, and I still know a little about these things." If the king's ministers of Longtai speak ill of us, then we Hu people will not be able to go up. ”

Yi Qusheng nodded and said, "That's right." So we need someone with enough weight to speak for us in Handan, understand? ”

Tu Xian suddenly understood: "What General Yiqu means is...... The Grand Governor? ”

"It's the Metropolitan Governor." Yi Qusheng nodded vigorously and said, "Now in the entire Zhao Kingdom, except for the Great King, I am afraid that only the Grand Governor has good intentions towards us Hu people. So helping the Metropolitan is helping us, you see?

I heard that Yiqubo's wife is from your evil tribe, and your mother is also from the evil tribe, and it seems that she is still a little related to Yiqubo's wife, right?

So tell your virtuous Shan Shan Yu, don't hide it anymore. I know what he's worried about, but you have to tell him that helping the Governor well is the way out for all our Yiqu people, Huns, and Linhu people, who are annoying to all the Hu people, understand? ”

After saying this, Yiqu Sheng patted Tu Xian's shoulder and rode away.

Tu Xian looked at Yiqusheng's figure thoughtfully.

Under the light of the setting sun in the distance, a large camp of the Zhao army covered with golden light was in front of the two of them.
