The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 521 Shocking Wu Yue
In midsummer, the weather is hot.

This morning, just after dawn, Cao Bin sent his son Cao Jue to lead [-] soldiers to the city of Linzhou.

After hearing the news, Linzhou guard Luo Feng hurried over.

Seeing that the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty had only brought 500 people, Luo Feng felt a little bit late, so he looked at Cao Jue at the bottom of the city calmly and asked, "Is the envoy of the Song Dynasty downstairs?"

Cao Jue snorted coldly: "The envoys can't talk about it. I'm just here to tell you that if you know the people, you should take the land and surrender. If not, our soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty will definitely break through your small country of Wuyue."

Hearing Cao Jue's words, Luo Feng was startled suddenly.

Between the two countries, even if it was a war, there was no such rush. Cao Jue brought so many people to ask them to surrender Wu Yue. Does this mean that they look down on Wu Yue too much?

And he talked to him with good words, how could he speak so rudely?
He was about to shout to scare the soldiers of Song Dynasty, but at this moment Luo Feng suddenly thought of the news sent by the Lord of Wuyue that he could not easily become an enemy of Song Dynasty. Thinking of this, he said kindly: "I Wu Yue has never had any enmity with your Great Song, and has never disrespected your Great Song, why did you come to destroy my Wuyue country?"

Cao Jue shrugged: "It's just the general trend of the world."

Cao Jue only said one sentence, but it already showed everything. Now that the Great Song Dynasty has destroyed the Southern Han, Southern Tang and Wuyue, there is only a small country in the south, Wuyue. If it is not destroyed, wouldn’t it be unreasonable?

The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms have been in war for a long time, and there should be a unified court.

Luo Feng frowned, and after a long time snorted coldly, and said, "It's just a general trend of the world, but I've thought about it, it's not easy to destroy me, Wu Yue."

Cao Jue shook his head: "I haven't thought about it, because in my Da Song's opinion, it is not difficult at all to destroy you, Wu Yue."

"What a yellow-mouthed kid, since that's the case, let's wait and see." Although there was an order from the Lord of Wu and Yue, Luo Feng was still furious when he heard Cao Jue say such arrogant words, so he stopped. Be polite.

At this time, Cao Jue smiled lightly and said: "I was ordered to attack Linzhou City today. Now I will give you half a stick of incense to think about it. You can abandon the city and surrender, or you can stick to it desperately, but I tell you You, if you surrender, you may survive, but if you persevere, whether you will see the sun tomorrow is another matter."

Hearing Cao Jue's words, no matter how good-tempered Luo Feng was, he couldn't bear it now, and shouted loudly, "You don't have to be polite, you little boy. If you can take my Linzhou City, you can come as much as you can!" Gong, if I am afraid of you, it is your grandson."

Cao Jue chuckled: "Good grandson, grandpa, I'm going to attack you right now."

As he said that, Cao Jue waved his hand, and then, 100 people suddenly took out a bomb from the back basket stretched out, ignited it, threw it vigorously, and threw it on the tower of Linzhou City. At first, the soldiers of Linzhou City They didn't take it seriously when they saw the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty, but when more than 100 bombs exploded on the tower, they realized their carelessness.

How powerful a hundred bombs are, Xiao Linzhou City is so strong, it was also bombed into ruins at this time, and the soldiers on the tower were dead, wounded, and scared, what did they do? Have you ever seen such a thunderous thing?
After a hundred bombs were bombed in this way, the walls of Linzhou City had already lived up to their existence, and Luo Feng, who was still furious just now, had no idea how many pieces had been bombed. Huo ordered to throw bombs at Luo Feng fiercely, so many bombs were thrown at Luo Feng's side, it's no wonder he survived.

Luo Feng died, and the remaining Wuyue soldiers were either shocked by the power of the bomb, or found that the commander was no longer there, so they all ran away with their heads in their arms. How dare they compete with the soldiers of the Song Dynasty again?
In a moment, the city of Linzhou was destroyed.
-
The news of the destruction of Linzhou City quickly spread to the imperial palace of Wuyue Kingdom. After Qian Hongchu heard the news, he couldn't believe it was true. Linzhou City had 1000 soldiers and horses. How could it be possible for [-] people from the Song Dynasty to attack quite well? ?
When he learned about Da Song's thing that can blow a hole in a city tower at once from the people who escaped, he suddenly lied in his heart. If Da Song used that thing to attack his Wuyue Palace, then he Any chance of getting out alive?
Da Song is horrible.

After walking back and forth for a few steps, Qian Hongchu hurriedly ordered: "Go and announce Hu Jing."

When Hu Jing came, he already knew the news that Linzhou City was broken, and this news made him very uneasy. He had faintly sensed Qian Hongchu's intention to announce his visit.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the palace, Qian Hongchu hurriedly said: "Hu Aiqing, the Song Dynasty is now very powerful, and it is about to destroy us, Wu Yue. If Wu Yue resists, it will not end well. The lord of the country wants to surrender to the Song Dynasty, but I don't know Hu Aiqing's intentions." how?"

Hu Jing had already thought about this problem on the way here. The Great Song Dynasty was strong and destroyed many countries in succession. Their Wu Yue is not their opponent at all, and even if they want to seek peace, with the ambition of the Great Song Emperor, it is impossible to tolerate their Wu Yue The existence of the country, since this is the case, it is better to surrender and end up with a happy ending.

"In today's situation, it would be a good idea for the lord to surrender, but the lord is the lord of Wuyue after all. If he surrendered just because he was afraid of the power of the Song Dynasty, it would be shameless, and it will be recorded in the history books in the future. Later generations feel that the ruler is incompetent."

"This..." Qian Hongchu knew that he was the fate of the king of subjugation, but it was his extreme wish to leave a good reputation in the history books. Now that he surrendered so easily, it is uncertain how the history books of later generations will be written.

"What does Ai Qing mean?" Qian Hongchu had no idea, so he had to ask Hu Jing again.

Hu Jing pondered for a while, and said: "The lord of the country can surrender to the Song Dynasty, but the reason for surrendering should not be that he is afraid of the strength of the Song Dynasty, but it should be that the lord of the country thinks about the dangers of war. It is specially dedicated to Wuyue Kingdom. In this way, the ruler of the country can win a good reputation of loving the people."

After Hu Jing finished speaking, Qian Hongchu thought about it, and felt that this was the only thing he could do. Since Wuyue Kingdom would not be able to keep it sooner or later, why not use this reason to surrender?
"Okay, just follow what Aiqing said, and ask Aiqing to draw up an imperial edict."

Hu Jing took the order, and then hurriedly retreated.

On the second day after Linzhou City was broken, the ruler of Wuyue Kingdom announced the edict of surrender, and the people of Wuyue Kingdom were deeply moved by his righteousness;

On the third day after the city of Linzhou was broken, Qian Hongchu, the lord of the Wuyue Kingdom, came to surrender. Cao Bin led the officials of the Wuyue Kingdom to Kaifeng, the capital of the Song Dynasty.

The news of Wuyue Kingdom's return to the Song Dynasty quickly spread all over the world, and at this time, the spies of the Liao Kingdom were rushing to the Liao Kingdom, but what he wanted to report to the emperor of the Liao Kingdom was not the matter of Wuyue Kingdom's destruction. What I want to report is the powerful new weapon of Da Song.
