& Countless people in Zhongxing Mansion have already heard the news about the reinforcement of troops in Liangshan. At this moment, they are hiding in their homes and trembling, fearing that war will come.
Xia Chongzong was sitting in the palace hall at the moment, while Meng Liang and countless ministers were standing below. These ministers all knew the news that the emperor was about to surrender, and many of them were disheartened at this moment.
"Your Majesty, why don't you continue to resist?" Finally a minister stood up and couldn't help but said.
"Resist? How can we resist? Do you know that in the eastern half of the country, there are countless solid cities. In just one month, they were all defeated by the Liangshan army! Especially in Xiazhou, Yanzhou and other places, the degree of solidity is
Almost all of them fell under Zhongxing Mansion, and they all fell in a short period of time! Now that the Liangshan army has arrived at Zhongxing Mansion, how long do you think Zhongxing Mansion can resist?" Xia Chongzong said.
"However, we still have to persist! We party members... must have our own integrity!" said the minister.
"Integrity?" Xia Chongzong smiled bitterly.
What is the use of integrity? In the face of life, what does integrity mean? This is what Xia Chongzong is thinking at this moment, and it is also the thought in the hearts of countless Xixia officials! Compared with the so-called "integrity", they care more about their own lives! If Liangshan attacks
Zhongxing Mansion, when the city is broken, they will have no choice but to die! Surrender now, they might be able to survive!
"Your Majesty, you must not surrender! Our ancestors worked hard to establish Xixia! We have been together for more than a hundred years. Now if your Majesty loses the country and the country, how will you explain to your ancestors in the future?" the minister said angrily.
"Account to the ancestors? Do you know that hundreds of years ago, we were vassals of the Han people, and we party members had to obey the orders of the Han people! Even my surname, 'Li', was given by the emperor of the Han people! Now it is just
Just return to the past!" Xia Chongzong said impatiently.
"Hundreds of years ago, hundreds of years ago, now is now! We have long been independent and separated from the Han people. We can even compete with the Han people!" the minister argued.
"You can go back after you leave! As for competing, do you think we can compete with the Han people in Liangshan now? Ridiculous!" Xia Chongzong snorted coldly.
"Your Majesty, if you insist on surrendering, I would rather die here today!" the minister said.
After hearing this, Xia Chongzong just sneered and didn't reply at all, and the other ministers next to him didn't reply either!
The minister looked around and let out a long sigh. Then a determined expression appeared on his face. He clenched his fists and slammed into a nearby pillar! He heard "Bang"
"There was a muffled sound, blood splattered on the minister's head, and then he fell to the ground!
No one expected that the minister would be so strong and commit suicide. The ministers nearby screamed in shock. One minister reached out to touch the man's nose, and then exclaimed: "Your Majesty, this man is dead!"
Xia Chongzong stood there silently. He did not expect that the minister would die here!
After a long time, Xia Chongzong asked: "What's his name?"
There were too many ministers in the palace at this moment. Except for some important ministers, he didn't recognize the rest! The dead minister in front of him was just a seventh-rank official. In the past, he was not even qualified to meet Xia Chongzong. If he hadn't arrived
At the moment of national subjugation, it is impossible for this person to enter the palace hall.
"This man's name is Tuoba Yu!" Meng Liang stepped forward and said.
"It's rare that I still have a loyal minister in Xixia! A generous burial!" Xia Chongzong said with a look that seemed to be smiling and crying.
He stood up and walked to the door. At this moment, the sky in the distance was already dimly lit, and he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart! He became the emperor when he was young, and then the Queen Mother came to power. When he finally defeated the Queen Mother, he really
When he took control of the country and wanted to reorganize the country, Liangshan rose in the north! Liangshan was far more powerful than the original Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty. Even if he had more lofty ideals, it would be of no use!
"Meng Liang, please lead people to open the city gate and prepare to welcome the Han people!" After a while, Xia Chongzong turned around and said.
Although Li Lingyuan has not returned yet, he has already anticipated the decision of Yue Fei and others! Yue Fei cannot be so stupid and will not tolerate Xixia's continued existence!
When the sky is dark, all the city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest of Zhongxing Mansion are wide open! At this moment, there are still countless Xixia soldiers standing on the city wall. These Xixia soldiers have blank expressions on their faces. They have been ordered to drop their weapons, and
They were warned not to resist! Some Xixia soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. Over the past few days, they had watched the Liangshan army below keep appearing. They were extremely nervous! Some were extremely sad. Zhongxing
The government fell, and they were afraid that Xixia would also be finished. They still regarded themselves as Xixia people and did not want to see the country perish! Some people wanted to resist, but they were hesitant at the moment! Some people ran towards their homes.
, they want to inform their families to hide well and not to go out! When the army enters the city, no one knows what kind of chaos it will be. Maybe Zhongxing Mansion will suffer a great disaster!
Liangshan's soldiers have already gathered at this moment!
Yue Fei and Liu Guangshi led 20,000 cavalry to the north city gate. Yang Xiong, Yang Zhi and others led the army to the east city gate area. Hu Yanting, Han Chang and others were to the west and south! At this moment, everyone
Everyone is waiting for the order to enter the city!
"Commander, I will go into the city first! If there is any fraud, I will withdraw immediately!" Liu Guangshi arrived.
"good!"
It was half daylight, and Liu Guangshi led 2,000 cavalry into Zhongxing Mansion from the North City Gate! He was cautious at first, fearing that the Xixia people might ambush! After passing through the city gate hole and coming to the city wall, he felt relieved
.
"Come here, occupy the city wall! As for the surrendering troops, just drop their weapons and gather them all for me!" Liu Guangshi said.
In fact, by this time, there were not many Xixia soldiers on the city wall! They were quickly ordered to gather together! Liu Guangshi kept waving flags on the city wall, and after a while, Yue Fei also entered with the remaining cavalry! In other
At the city gate, Yang Zhi, Yang Xiong, Hu Yanting, Han Chang and others also entered the city one after another.
"Instruct all armies to occupy the important areas in the city, the interface! In addition, no massacre of the people, no rape of women, no robbery of the people's property! Once discovered, they will be killed without mercy!" Yue Fei has issued an urgent order.
"yes!"
"Liu Guangshi, especially you! Your soldiers have killed many people before, and now they are a bit wild! You used to be strong and clear, which is understandable! If you still do such a thing now, I will never forgive you.
Yes!" Yue Fei turned to Liu Guangshi and said.
"Commander, don't worry! I, Liu Guangshi, am not that ignorant of propriety!" Liu Guangshi said with a smile.
"Of course, if any Xixia people resist, you will kill them without mercy!" Yue Fei said.
"yes!"
Yue Fei passed on his orders one after another, and all the armies were already executing his orders.
Li Lingyuan also entered the city at this moment. After he surrendered to Zhongxing Mansion, he was afraid that the Liangshan army would loot it for several days! Unexpectedly, after arriving here, the Liangshan army only occupied important strongholds. Just like in Lingzhou City, they did not want to
Enter people's homes! Even some Xixia people appeared on the street, and they just ordered these Xixia people to
Going home, I did not kill the Xixia people on the street! It has been more than a hundred years since Xixia was founded. This once horse-riding race has now declined. Because it was deeply influenced by the Song Dynasty, this nation has gradually lost its blood.
Up to now, there are not many people in the city who are resisting at all! This nation is not even as good as the former Goryeo nation!
Thinking that his country would disappear from now on, Li Lingyuan's face became extremely pale!
Last night, he may have only been thinking about his own life, but now, he finally realized what he had lost! From now on, he will be like a tree without roots and a duck without water, no longer having his own motherland.
I no longer have my own hometown! My hometown is occupied by the Han people, and from now on this place will all belong to the Han people!
"General, our Majesty is waiting for you in the palace!" After a long time, Li Lingyuan said.
"Okay, let's go to the Xixia Palace now!" Yue Fei said.
The group of them headed towards the Xixia Palace. It was quiet along the way. Except for the soldiers standing guard, no other people could be seen at all! Yue Fei didn't take it seriously. Over the years, Liangshan's siege of cities and territories has generally been like this for newly conquered cities.
Ordinary people did not dare to leave their homes and were hiding. He observed the surrounding buildings along the way and found that these buildings had the characteristics of Han architecture. It seemed that the influence of the Han people here was indeed very profound! In this case, the future rule of
The resistance here will be much smaller.
Zhongxing Mansion was also very large, and it took several sticks of incense to walk before they arrived in front of the Xixia Palace.
At this moment, at the entrance of the palace, the Xixia monarchs and ministers were already welcoming their arrival!
Seeing Yue Fei from a distance, the ministers had already knelt down on the ground. Xia Chongzong was the emperor after all. Even though he had surrendered at this moment, he still worried about his own face. After hesitating for a long time, he did not kneel down, and Yue Fei did not let him kneel down.
.
"Emperor, we finally meet!" Yue Fei said with a smile.
I still remember that day, when he shouted at the Emperor of Xixia under the city wall, Xia Chongzong did not dare to go out to see him. At this moment, Yue Fei had realized a small wish of his, and truly met the Emperor of Xixia as a general of the country.
"Ashamed!" Xia Chongzong sighed.
"From today on, you are also my Liangshan official! You can no longer live in this palace, you can follow me to Yanjing City." Yue Fei said.
Hearing this, Xia Chongzong's face turned pale! He also felt like Li Lingyuan before, his heart suddenly became empty, as if life no longer had any meaning. His whole person seemed to have turned into a walking zombie.
Yue Fei thought he was terrified, and said: "Don't worry, nothing will happen to you when we get to Yanjing City! You will be safe, I can guarantee this with my personality! We will not kill the surrendered king! No matter whether it is the king or the king,
The people can live well as long as they don't resist, but before that, we still have some things to do."
