April 16, morning.

The battle has ended yesterday afternoon, Jerusalem was fully controlled by the Western Qin army, the defenders in the city were either killed or captured, and all the property belonging to the Autonomous Committee was taken over by the Western Qin Army.

A large number of stones blocking the golden gate of the eastern city wall have all been cleared, and the city gate has long been opened, and the streets inside and outside the city gate are all Western Qin infantry wearing armor and holding sharp blades.

On both sides of the street leading from the Golden Gate to the Temple Mountain, in addition to the heavily guarded Western Qin soldiers standing guard, there are also a large number of residents in the city, among them the elderly are on crutches, women are holding children, and adult men are blocking in front of the women.

Zhao Ziliang sat on horseback with his whole armor on his body, and while walking, he observed and looked at the residents along the way, the frightened and frightened looks on the faces of these people were seen by him, this was unavoidable, even if he smiled, this could not change the fact that these people were afraid of him from the heart.

The Golden Gate is not far from the Temple Mountain, and it will soon be there, and when you arrive at the Beauty Gate (that is, the Gate of Eternal Life), this is the scope of entering the Temple Mountain, Zhao Ziliang stopped in front of the Temple Gate, stared at the top of the mountain for a moment, jumped off the horse, and walked towards the Temple Mountain.

At this time, there was a rock mosque built on the Temple Mount, which was ordered to be built by the ninth caliph of the Umayyad Dynasty, before which the Jews had built the first and second temples, but they were destroyed in the war, leaving only some remnants of masonry, and later the Jews used these remnants of masonry to build a wall on the foundation of the original temple site, which is the world-famous "Wailing Wall"

Seeing Zhao Ziliang walking towards the Temple Mount, not only the cannibals on both sides of the street, but also the Jews began to be agitated, and they rushed forward, trying to prevent Zhao Ziliang from going to the mountain to defile their holy land, but the Western Qin soldiers standing guard stopped them, and spears were horizontal in front of them, blocking them to the side of the street.

There are more and more restless and crazy people, the Western Qin troops standing guard are thin, and the Western Qin who followed all pulled out their swords under the order of Zhao Bei, and the swords that flashed with cold light shone brightly in the sun, the people were afraid, death threatened them, they showed a look of fear again, quietly retreated, and the restlessness was forcibly suppressed.

Zhao Ziliang walked up to the top of the hill to visit the Rock Mosque and the Wailing Wall, and then visited Fort Antonia, which was built here by the Roman Empire.

The visit to the Temple Mount and Fort Antonia made Zhao Ziliang have to sigh that every nation and civilization has its uniqueness, and after the precipitation of time, history has endowed them with profound connotations and vicissitudes of appearance, which cannot be imitated by any other nation and civilization.

Zhao Ziliang came down from the Temple Hill with a lingering conscience, and finally went to visit the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and Mount Golgotha, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre is the place where Christ was buried, and Mount Golgotha is the place where he suffered.

With the capture of Jerusalem, almost all of the Middle East was occupied by the Western Qin, whose power bordered the eastern coast of the Mediterranean. The trade routes were unimpeded, and a large number of merchants were about to flock to the market, and countless Western Qin goods would be sold all over the Middle East, and even as far away as Spain, North Africa, Italy, and the Franks via the Mediterranean.

The generals took the Herod Palace as the place where Zhao Ziliang stayed, this palace was built during the time of Herod I, it has been more than 700 years, and has always been used as the city lord's palace in Jerusalem.

Zhao Ziliang rested for a day at the Herod Palace, and on April 17, the main leaders of the former Autonomous Council, such as Perridge, Guy and Murisadinia, were all escorted to the Greek palace by soldiers.

"Get on your knees!" A soldier shouted at the three.

Peric fell to his knees with a frightened thud, and Guy and Murisardin held their heads high in great anger and ignored the soldiers' shouting.

Several of the soldiers were not polite, and immediately raised their legs and kicked hard at the back knee socket of their backs, and Guy and Murisardin involuntarily knelt down on one knee, and they were pressed the shoulders by the soldiers, and both kneeled down.

Zhao Ziliang did not stop the rough behavior of the soldiers, since they were defeated, these people should have the consciousness of defeat.

Murisardin raised his head and glared angrily at Zhao Ziliang: "If you want to kill, kill it, is it useful to insult us like this?" Were you born with this disgusting penchant? ”

Zhao Ziliang smiled: "It seems that you are not afraid of death?" ”

"Hmph, whether you're afraid of death or not, is there any difference now? You'd better kill us, or you'll regret it! ”

Zhao Ziliang sighed and said, "I'm the person who can't be threatened by others, yes, you have successfully provoked me." I now give you two choices, that you submit to me, serve me, and swear to serve me all the days of your life, that all the inhabitants of the city may be spared death; Second, if you reject me, I will order the slaughter of the city, and all the people in Jerusalem will be put to death, and all the buildings in the city will be destroyed, and the holy city will cease to exist forever! ”

Guy shouted: "You demon, God will not allow you to do whatever you want, you will be punished!" ”

Murisardin also cried out: "You cannot do this, Allah will punish you, and Allah's people will always be your enemies!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said calmly: "Whoever becomes my enemy, I will kill them until I kill them all!" Now Persia, the Middle East and the Great Food Peninsula are all within the sphere of influence of this king, as long as this king gives an order, all the big cannibals will die, and in the future, this king will also send troops to attack North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula, killing all the big cannibals, do you believe it or not? ”

"You ······" Muri Sardin couldn't help but shudder, he couldn't imagine what kind of scene the world would be like once Zhao Ziliang gave such an order, all the big cannibals would be slaughtered because he didn't give in today, he couldn't bear this huge sin.

For a moment, as if all the strength in Murisardin's body had been drained, he was crawling on the ground and trembling.

Zhao Ziliang didn't look at Murisalinia, his eyes moved to Perici, and said with a smile: "Hello, Lord Bishop! ”

Bishop Pericich was already frightened at this time, he was so frightened that he came out with feces and urine, and prostrate on the ground and said to Zhao Ziliang in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, respected King, I, Peritsch, am willing to submit to Your Majesty, become a slave of Your Majesty, and be willing to obey Your Majesty's drive, and all our priests in Jerusalem and Canaan are willing to serve Your Majesty!" ”

Guy turned his head and laughed shamefully: "This is the gentleman bishop of the Holy See, so unbearable in front of the power, shameless man, you really give you a long face for Christ!" ”

Perridge's face turned red, but he quickly retorted: "You are hard, you are hard to show me, I see if you are willing to watch all the Jews be slaughtered, or you fulfill your own indomitability!" It is said that you do not bow to power, but in fact, in my opinion, you are just a selfish person for your own face, you are not worthy to be an elder of the Jews, and people like you to be the elder of the Jews will only lead them to destruction! ”

Guy ignored Perridge, looked at Zhao Ziliang and said: "It is my decision to insist on resisting your aggression, it has nothing to do with other Jews, if you are a real king, you should only kill me, not implicate everyone else!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said coldly: "I don't believe that your position as an elder is hereditary, since they chose you as an elder, they trust you and leave everything they have to you to decide, you can represent all of them, your attitude also represents their attitude, you want to put yourself out of relationship with them, this is absolutely impossible!" Surrender or exterminate the clan, there is not much time left for you to choose, and if I haven't received an answer by this time tomorrow morning, I will refuse me as you! Come, send him back to the prison and stay, Peric and Murisardin stay! ”

Guy was escorted away, full of resentment, but unable to resist.

Zhao Ziliang looked at Peric and asked, "Lord Perridge, have you already decided?" You know that this is not a small matter, and you can represent all the church friars in Jerusalem and the land of Canaan, as well as in Syria? ”

Perici immediately said: "Yes, my majesty, the priests of all the churches in Syria and Canaan are appointed by the villain, and they dare not disobey the villain, if Your Majesty supports the villain, the villain can even declare his independence from the Holy See and no longer subject to the constraints of the Holy See, and from now on the villain and all the priests in Syria, Canaan and Jerusalem will serve His Majesty alone!" In the eyes of the villain, His Majesty is God's representative in the world, and your words and deeds represent God's will! ”

Shameless, shameless, I have never seen such a shameless person, Murisardin turned his head to look at Perridge and scolded in his heart, no wonder this guy can mix with the identity of the archbishop of Jerusalem, this kung fu is really first-class in the world.

Seeing the grass on the wall of the rudder made by the wind, the people who can compromise the means for the sake of the end, and have no bottom line! This is Zhao Ziliang's evaluation of Perridge, although he hates this guy, but I have to say that Perridge is still very useful to him, at least he can use Perridge to make all Christians in the Middle East obedient.

"Very good, Perridge, the Lone King is impressed with you, I didn't expect you to be such a knowledgeable person, I like you very much, the Lone King has appointed you to continue to be in charge of all Christian affairs in the Middle East, and you are ready to be at the disposal of the Lone King!"

Peritsch was overjoyed and immediately prostrated again: "Yes, Great King! ”

Zhao Ziliang looked at Murisardin again and asked, "Have you thought about it?" Murisardine, you want to be as tough as Guy? ”

As if he was an aging teenager, he had to choose to surrender: "Your Majesty, you have won, I choose to surrender, I swear to serve you only from now on, and serve you as Lord for the rest of my life!" ”
