Chapter 306: The Meeting of Wucheng (1)
After the death of King Chen, the Rong Lang Division only rested for ten days in Fanjing before heading south in large numbers. They defeated the remnants of Chen's army and were pursued by the refugees. In Chen's territory, if they could not resist, the city gates would be opened for the Rong people.
The city was only subjected to burning, killing and looting, and those who could not open the city gate were resisted to death. After the wolf division invaded, they immediately slaughtered the men and killed them. If the women were of mature age, they were forcibly abducted and marched with the army.
The State of Chen has become a hell on earth. Most of the stragglers in the south fled to the State of Shu, while those in the north fled to the State of Zhao. Originally, people from the Chen State needed to have customs clearance documents to enter Zhao, but at this time, the Chen State was destroyed and the King of Zhao ordered that they not be expelled.
Chen Guo's refugees.
Zhao Guoping Liang, Ninghe Palace, Zhao Wang finished approving piles of memorials and stood up to stretch his muscles. Princess Duguqing of Zhao brought a few more volumes of memorials and hurried into Chengyu Palace with an unhappy tone: "Chen Guo
After the stragglers fled into Zhao, there were many people who broke into houses and robbed their homes, which really disturbed the peace of the people of Zhao. Lord Lu and others have already handed the memorial to me, do you really not care about it?"
King Zhao sighed and said: "The concerns of the princess and the prime minister are naturally reasonable. However, it is reasonable for the soldiers to destroy Chen and the refugees from the northern border of Chen to seek refuge in Zhao. There is really no other way. Is it so urgent?
Locking the State of Zhao and letting those innocent people die on the border between Zhao and Chen? The people of Zhao State should live and work in peace and contentment, but the people of Chen State should starve to death?"
Duguqing threw the memorial in his hand on the case in front of King Zhao: "Liu Ying, you are not from Zhao after all! The reason why you can condone Chen Guo's refugees to rob homes and houses in Zhao is because in your eyes, Zhao and Chen are not the same at all.
There is not much difference! The people of Zhao State are not Song people, and the people of Chen State are not Song people either!"
King Zhao leaned over and spread out the memorial that Dugu Qing had thrown on the case. He glanced at it casually for a few times, stood up straight again, squeezed his stiff shoulders, and said calmly: "Princess Dugu, you really should change your mind.
Change your hasty temper. If you are used to calling me by my name, what good will it do to the State of Zhao if you let it slip in front of others? Could it be that a person from the Song Dynasty who has been sitting on the dragon throne of the State of Zhao for more than 20 years is very annoying to Ning He?
Is Gong Pengpi glowing?"
Dugu Qing was very angry, pointed at King Zhao, and said angrily: "You...why can you be so cold-hearted? So...indifferent to everything? Qi Wei restored the country, and your son Liu Du was forced to move back to the old state of Song.
Du, you didn't lend him a single soldier! You can do this to the Song Dynasty. No wonder the Rong people invaded Jinyang Pass and you didn't send troops to aid Chen! Now Chen Guo's people are fleeing to Zhao. Oh, I'm so stupid.
I thought you would take care of it!
I, Duguqing, have never hated anyone in my life. The only thing I hate is myself! I hate myself for why I fell in love with a coward for twenty years! Why I stayed with a coward for twenty years! Why..."
King Zhao interrupted: "Princess, please calm down." He couldn't help but chuckle again, with a gentle tone, "Actually, a man who has long disregarded life and death can be willing to hide in Zhao Palace in Pingliang and do twenty things.
Don’t you, a young coward, need some courage?”
Duguqing snorted and said, "A coward is a coward, and your sophistry is useless!"
King Zhao said: "Okay, then I won't quibble. The reason why the Chen people fled to Zhao is because their city and their hometown were destroyed by the Rong people. However, now, in order to destroy Chen in one fell swoop, the Rong army has already attacked Chen
The southern border of the country has gone, and the northern border of Chen State cannot be taken care of for the time being. If the Chen State refugees in Zhao State are to be dismissed, the best way is to send them home.
Princess, in the past few days, would you please go to the court to discuss affairs and help me deal with those gossipy civil servants who get mad at nothing. I will quickly lead 50,000 Zhao troops to send the stragglers of Chen State back to Chen State, and then I will take care of them.
The northern territory of Chen State was included in the territory of Zhao State."
Duguqing sneered: "It turns out that you, a native of the Song Dynasty, are not only a coward, but also an insidious person who gets something for nothing."
King Zhao said cheerfully: "Who stipulates that Wang Tu's hegemony cannot be defeated without force? Who knows whether the Chen Kingdom's destruction is all due to the invincible Rong clan wolf master who suddenly fell from the sky? Since there are people who can borrow swords to kill people, that's right.
Some people can lead sheep easily.
Moreover, although the Rong people are currently stationing troops in the southern border of Chen State, in my opinion, if they still want to continue to cause trouble in Jinyang Pass, they will definitely not choose to attack the Shu State that is easy to defend and difficult to attack first, but will take advantage of our unpreparedness.
, turned around and attacked the Zhao State, which was completely flat. After all, there were some hills in the northern border of Chen State, and the small town could serve as a barrier. Zhao State had to get these barriers. Because the second Jinyang Pass among the Kyushu Kingdoms was Dugu Zhao State.
"
Dugu Qing said: "If the Rong people crush Zhao, Qi and Wei may not be able to stop them. It won't be long before they can march straight in to attack Song. King Huai of Song, when Qi and Wei recover, will you not help Song?"
Country, why are you trying to block your poor son of King Song when the Rong people are attacking?"
King Zhao lowered his eyes and smiled, and asked: "Princess, I only know that King Xiao Song is my son, haven't you heard about the life experience of King Xin Qi? Also, the country of Zhao has a flat terrain, so there is no need for the cavalry of the Rong people to help the country of Zhao.
Flattened?"
Duguqing had no choice but to deal with Liu Ying, who had always had a good temper. He said helplessly: "I don't know what good things King Huai of Song Dynasty has. Why is everyone rushing to be your son? Not to mention that the new King Qi was raised by King Wei.
The older orphan, even if he is not an orphan, even if he is the child of you and the subjugated princess of Qi, then who is the princess of Song who is ranked fifth in the beauty list? How could the princess of Song become the new king of Qi overnight? Qi Guoxin
You fabricated a false life experience for yourself, not to be your son, but to gain access to the blood of the lost princess of the Qi Kingdom. The Qi Kingdom had no heirs, so he married the righteous daughter of King Qi Yu... He was not the king of Qi.
, do you want to ask your daughter, who has stayed in the Song Palace all her life and never seen anyone, to be the King of Qi?"
When the Princess of Zhao State explained King Qi's false life experience at length, the smile in King Zhao's eyes became even deeper.
I put the princess of Song Dynasty on the beauty list, who never leaves home and is never seen by anyone, not because she is my daughter.
The reason why I don't ask Zhuge Dunji for the child he raised is not because he is not my son.
I have been King of Zhao for twenty years, and it is not because I am a coward who only knows how to hide behind the golden gauze curtain.
If Kyushu can live in peace for a lifetime, and if all countries can respect each other as guests, I, Liu Ying, will hide behind the golden gauze curtains for the rest of my life, pretending to be a coward and trying to live in peace. What's wrong with wasting my remaining years like this?
I owe Yi'er, Xiao and Zhuge Dun for the restoration of the Qi Wei Kingdom. Moreover, the restoration of the Qi Wei Kingdom did not massacre the Song Kingdom at all. If Xiao could seize the throne of the Song Dynasty in an honest and fair manner, I, as a father, would not stop him. But these years
He governed the Song Dynasty very well, and he even shouldered many responsibilities for me that should have been borne by me. The biggest compensation I can give my son is not to help him.
As for why I didn't send troops to aid Chen... Yu Private, twenty years ago, if there hadn't been a battle between Chen and Song, today, Yi'er and I, our little family of three, would not be separated by three places, and heaven and earth would be separated forever. Yu Gong, Zhao
The country is weak, and if we want long-term peace and stability, we can only live alone in a corner and always maintain neutrality. If Zhao sends troops to rescue Chen, it will be equivalent to joining the four allies of Qi, Wei, Chen, and Shu. After I abdicate, how will Zhao face Song? Moreover, I also
I never expected that the Chen State would be so vulnerable and the Rong people would be so powerful and invincible. I am afraid that all of this must be "credited" to the person behind the scenes.
Zhuge Dunji, is this person you? Isn't it to your liking to restore Qi Wei to the country?
