Chapter 191: The Crazy Taihe King (2)
"Your Majesty, I heard rumors that the prince of Nanling King was shot to death by our soldiers..." General Li said suspiciously, "It is estimated that our soldiers accidentally killed him during the robbery and he was out hunting.
The prince of Nanling."
"What? The prince was killed?"
"Isn't this unlucky man's son too unlucky?"
"If you die well, the son born of a waste is also a waste..."
"No wonder the King of Nanling is so angry. It turns out there is a reason..."
"..."
"..."
"I see." King Taihe joked, "This good-for-nothing's son is dead, no wonder he dares to challenge Gu."
"Your Majesty, I think there is something fishy about this matter." The Prime Minister said, "No matter how arrogant our soldiers are, they can't directly shoot the prince of Nanling King? We should check first..."
"What to investigate?" King Nanling waved his sleeves and said displeasedly, "Why don't we just kill his son? Do we still want this king to hand over the soldiers and apologize to him?"
King Taihe Zhengchou did not have the spearhead to destroy King Nanling.
Who would have thought that the Nanling King himself would come up at the gunpoint.
"Your Majesty, what I mean is..." the Prime Minister continued, "We don't know whether this is true or not, but we have to be careful about Dafeng in the north..."
Hearing this, the whole place fell silent.
Everyone, including the King of Nanling, fell silent.
When they think of Dafeng, their hearts feel heavy.
Since the beginning of the previous dynasty, they have lived by looking at the faces of the Han people.
Previously, the territories of King Pingnan and King Jin bordered on them, and they were fed up with the humiliation.
Including when the King of Jin was in trouble, he sent envoys to threaten and intimidate them.
They also dare to be angry but dare not speak out.
just in case...
What if the Han people in the north intervene?
What should they do?
"Prime Minister, what should we do?" King Taihe was shocked, "Now the emperor is not an ordinary person, and he will kill the feudal kings without mercy..."
"Your Majesty, now we have two ways to go." The Prime Minister said bluntly:
"First, let's immediately thoroughly investigate who is the soldier who shot and killed the Prince of Nanling, and then find the guilty soldier and hand it over to the King of Nanling. At the same time, we will write a letter to the court to apologize and admit our mistake. With the face of Emperor Da Feng, the King of Nanling will also
I can only break my teeth and swallow them into my stomach."
"Second, let's cut through the trouble quickly, send out troops quickly, follow the current, and destroy the King of Nanling!"
Hiss~
Hiss~
Hearing this, everyone took a deep breath.
This second way is too crazy, right?
King Taihe's pupils shrank and he said cautiously, "Prime Minister, there are Han troops in the north. We...?"
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much." The Prime Minister stroked his beard and said, "We, the three kings of Yunchuan Dao, are of the same race. To put it bluntly, our thrones were granted by the previous dynasty. The purpose is to allow the three of us to restrain each other. It is okay to destroy anyone. We
As long as he quickly takes over the Nanling King's territory and still respects the court's orders, Emperor Da Feng can only admit this fact..."
After a pause, the Prime Minister continued, "Your Majesty, this is a great opportunity to unify the Tu people. As long as the Nanling King is destroyed, there will be only one Nanzhao King left. If he doesn't surrender, he will have to surrender."
"..."
King Taihe was silent.
The ministers also fell silent.
They are all engaged in crazy and complex ideological struggles.
Compared with the giants in the north, the three kings of the Tu tribe are indeed nothing.
However, it was King Taihe's dream to unify the Tu people.
If the Yunchuan Road area is unified, it will occupy a large area.
Moreover, they are not Han nationality, and the emperor, who is Han nationality, can only recognize his identity.
Otherwise, it will force him to the opposite side.
Further south, there are the Nanyi countries.
The Southern Yi countries are not as obedient as the Tu people.
In the past, King Jin and King Pingnan were watching from the side, and King Taihe did not dare to do anything.
After the two Han vassal kings were eliminated, he became bolder and more ambitious.
"good!"
"Then follow the Prime Minister's advice."
"Send troops immediately."
"Destroy the Nanling King!"
King Taihe gave the order, and his men immediately took action.
Under normal circumstances, someone should be worried, because it is ordinary people who suffer from the war.
On the contrary, most of the courtiers' expressions were excited at this moment.
King Taihe's territory was relatively rich, much richer than King Nanling's.
The land available for farming and the hills for grazing are also several times that of the King of Nanling.
Therefore, they all thought that it would be easy to destroy King Nanling.
Three days later.
An army of ten thousand people quickly set off, wearing the characteristic armor of the Tu people, and headed for Yizhou City.
Yizhou City is the first small city in the territory of King Nanling that borders King Taihe.
The state town is larger than the county town.
The one larger than Zhoucheng is Fucheng.
A certain road represents a province.
The garrison officer in charge of Yizhou City is taking a nap at the moment and having a sweet dream.
Suddenly, the panicked voice of his guards sounded outside the door, "My lord, my lord, enemy attack, enemy attack!!!"
"Um?"
The garrison officer woke up instantly, sat up, rubbed his eyes and said, "Nonsense, where is the enemy attack?"
"Sir, it's King Taihe's army that's coming. It's less than ten miles away from Yizhou City..."
"What? Hurry, close the city gate and organize defense..."
"By the way, how many people are here?"
"Sir, I can't see clearly. I'm afraid there are at least ten thousand people!"
"Fuck you!" the garrison officer said in horror, his eyes almost falling out of his head. "Immediately organize a defense, let the young men in the city go up, and quickly send people to ask for help from the king..."
The garrison officer was so frightened that all his souls fled.
Although Yizhou City is a state city, it is about the same size as a county town in the Central Plains.
There are only more than a thousand soldiers in the entire city?
Moreover, the city wall is not high, the defense facilities are not perfect, and there are not even rolling logs and other items.
There was no problem with the garrison's order. The remaining soldiers in the city immediately closed the city gate and prepared to meet the enemy. At the same time, a few fast horses asked for help from the base camp.
But, it's too late.
King Taihe's 10,000 soldiers were all elite.
As soon as they arrived at Yizhou City, they launched a fierce attack.
After two rounds of shooting from the dense rain of arrows, there were no more living people visible on the city wall.
There are more than a thousand soldiers, half of whom are old and weak.
The remaining soldiers were like moths flying into a flame when faced with the mighty army of ten thousand people.
As for the young people in the temporary organization, they had never been on the battlefield. Some of them were shot dead and the rest dispersed.
Only half an hour.
The city of Yizhou was destroyed.
King Taihe's army entered Yizhou City.
The garrison officer was also killed.
His wife and daughter were also insulted.
Most of the wealthier people in the city were robbed.
Anything of value was taken away.
Beautiful women have also become trophies.
It can be seen that even though they are both Tu ethnic groups, their national cohesion is not that great.
This is actually the same among the Han people.
