Chapter 488 Flattering

Chapter 488 Flattery

Ask him to let us go and save our lives, and then he can collect 300,000 loads of food and send it there myself. I believe that His Majesty the Emperor of David will be able to retreat peacefully."

After finishing speaking, Jin Wang's whole body was like a deflated rubber ball, and he collapsed on his throne.

Because of his decision, it means that his Goguryeo can be said to be almost penniless.

Originally, Goguryeo was not very wealthy, and Jinwang had also spent a lot of money in recent years.

It can be said that he spends money like water here every day, otherwise the people below would not exploit these people like crazy.

This resulted in the people being in dire straits. After hearing Jin Wang’s choice, the following officials began to flatter him one after another.

"My lord is wise. My lord, for the sake of the people of Goguryeo, you are able to empty this treasury. You are truly a famous king through the ages."

These officials were really flattering, even though Jin Wang also asked them to hand over their property.

But these officials are also corrupt in private. If they don't hand over part of it, it won't hurt them at all. It's just a little pain in the flesh.

When Xun Yu learned that Zhao Feng wanted to end the war on Goguryeo's side through peace talks.

He knew that it looked like it would be difficult to continue this battle, so he followed the instructions in Zhao Feng's letter.

The peace agreement was written in advance and sent to Jin Wang's hands, and when Jin Wang got the peace agreement.

He himself believed that this was not a peace treaty letter at all, but a capitulation letter at all.

The above analysis of some of the military strength and other situations of the Great Wei and Goguryeo can clearly express a problem.

That is, if the fight continues, it can be said that Goguryeo has no chance of winning.

Although Gou Yu didn't say it explicitly in the letter, the implication was very obvious.

Even if you don't accept the terms of the peace talks, if you continue to fight, your side of Goguryeo will definitely be bulldozed. By then, you will definitely not be able to hold your position as king, so you will not get a good end.

This left him to choose what to do, and Jin Wang knew it very well.

He also knew that if he continued to fight, he would never be a match for Wei.

After all, even Fuerduo's side has disappeared, and Nanyu City has also been lost.

The most important thing is that nearly 100,000 soldiers were recruited by the Great Wei State.

This suddenly increased the number of soldiers in the Wei Kingdom by nearly half, totaling nearly 300,000.

It can be said that these 300,000 soldiers can really go sideways in his territory of Goguryeo.

So Jin Wang had no choice but to empty out the treasury, hoping to apologize to Zhao Feng in exchange for a chance to survive.

But this Jin Wang is definitely not a person who is willing to suffer losses. In his opinion, even though he can't beat him on the surface.

But he still has a chance. As long as he can kill Zhao Feng, he still has a chance to turn defeat into victory.

So when he was preparing to use these gold and silver treasures for peace talks, he also wanted to deal harsh blows to Zhao Feng.

It's just that he didn't tell these civil and military officials about these things.

Because he knew that when these civil and military officials heard what he said, they would definitely try their best to dissuade him, because these people had been frightened stupidly by the Great Wei State.

"Someone, go and call the general of the imperial guard."

After all the arrangements were made, all the civil and military officials also withdrew.

Jin Wang then regained his former domineering attitude as the royal lord, and notified the servants around him to call the general of the guards.

This Guards General can be said to be Jin Wang's die-hard loyalist. Even if everyone betrays him, it is impossible for this Guards General to betray him. After all, if there is no such sincerity.

It was impossible for him to let the Guards General control so many troops, and still be by his side.

"Lord, did you call me?"

Soon the guard general came to Jin Wang, and Jin Wang immediately stepped down from the throne when he saw him.

And he didn't say anything, he just walked up to the guard general.

He helped him up, looked at the general of the Guards, and then patted him on the shoulder.

"How do I treat you on weekdays? If I have something to ask you to do, it will be a narrow escape. Do you dare to do it? Are you willing to do it?"

Jin Wang didn't say any more nonsense, because he knew that it would be meaningless to say anything more at this time.

On the one hand, in order to survive, Jinwang had no choice but to compensate for gold, silver, treasures and food.

He went to Zhao Feng in exchange for temporary peace. On the other hand, he didn't want to declare his failure just like that.

Because he was also very worried about Zhao Feng, and he really wanted to kill Zhao Feng.

But he knew that if he came to fight openly, Goguryeo would definitely not be the opponent of the Wei Kingdom.

So he wanted to use other methods to put Zhao Feng to death, and the most likely method to succeed was to ambush and assassinate him.

After all, even if it was a peace negotiation, he would still have the opportunity to make an appointment with Zhao Feng to a place that would be beneficial to him.

When the time comes, we can use the men and horses that have been ambushed in advance to launch an attack on Zhao Feng.

Presumably, killing Zhao Feng is definitely not a difficult task, and it is really possible to succeed.

As long as Zhao Feng dies, the Wei Kingdom will no longer be a danger to him.

After all, as long as Zhao Feng dies, the Wei Kingdom will surely collapse, and then no one will care about what will happen to Goguryeo.

Then Jin Wang can take advantage of the chaos to obtain greater benefits, and the 300,000 armed forces experienced in Goguryeo may also be eaten by him.

When the time comes, not only will he be able to take revenge, but he will also be able to obtain greater benefits through this matter. This is simply killing several birds with one stone.

But he didn't consider one thing, let alone whether he could successfully kill Zhao Feng.

Even if he could successfully kill Zhao Feng, would the remaining people be able to spare him?

So his plan is at best a plan that will lead to destruction, but it is definitely not a good plan.

"No matter what your Majesty orders, no matter whether I go up the mountain of swords or go down into the sea of ​​fire, I will do my best for Your Majesty, and I will not hesitate to do so."

When the general of the Guards heard what Jin Wang said, he was very straightforward and immediately followed it without even asking what the mission was.

After all, it can be said that the achievements he has today are all given by Jin Wang.

That's why he was so loyal to Jin Wang, and he knew that when Jin Wang arranged a mission for him.

It means that Jin has no one else available except him.

This is also an honor for him. No matter how dangerous the task is, he must do it.

"Okay, very good. Since you have this plan, I'm relieved. In a few days, the Emperor of Wei Kingdom, Zhao Feng, will come to our royal city to negotiate peace with us.
