Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Seven: The Fall of Chu
Upon receiving Zhao Changqing's decree, all forces in Wei State moved into action, striving to deliver the decree to Zhuge Liang and Chen Qingzhi in the shortest possible time.
This is the right of the emperor.
Maybe a casual word from an emperor can make millions of people go through fire and water for him without hesitation.
Immediately afterwards, a piece of news came from the Chu State's front.
All the civil and military officials were breathing heavily involuntarily.
The purpose of their stay here is to wait for the news from Chu State.
Zhao Changqing also looked solemn.
The person who came to report the news on Chu's front was Lu Bing, and Zhao Changqing had been ordering him to pay attention to Chu's actions.
Now, the news has finally come through, but Zhao Changqing is afraid to accept the news.
I'm afraid it's some bad news.
If there is any bad news, the consequences will be difficult to resist even if the entire Wei State comes to resist.
When he saw the joyful look on Lu Bing's face, Zhao Changqing breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "But the good news?"
Lu Bing nodded heavily and said: "Your Majesty, this is good news! Emperor Chu committed suicide, Marshal Bai Qi defeated the Southern Barbarians, and the Chu Kingdom is dead!"
At this moment, the civil and military forces in the entire court fell silent.
Then came the joy of joy.
The faces of the civil and military ministers were all flushed, and they were rejoicing for this grand event.
Since the ancient times, when the Qin Dynasty fell apart and the Five Kingdoms were settled, there have been no more wars to destroy the country.
And now, how can people not be happy that Chu has perished in the hands of Wei Dynasty?
Zhao Changqing took a long breath, sat on the dragon chair, showed a long-lost smile, and said with relief: "We won."
Needless to say, just two words are enough to represent everything.
This battle affected the entire world. In later records, it was classified as World War II.
The total number of troops invested by various countries is actually three million.
Approximately 1.3 million people died in the war.
In World War II, the ultimate beneficiary was still Wei.
In the battle to destroy the country, Wei really did it!
This is exciting news for Wei State.
This indicates that the Wei State will become the country with the most extensive territory in the vast land of China.
But this is not a good thing for the world.
Because they have already seen the wolfish ambition of Wei State.
If nothing else happens, Wei State should continue to take steps to expand.
Since this incident is unavoidable, how can we make people with lofty ideals in various countries happy? Even some people in other countries were a little unhappy after hearing the news.
The weak country in the past really turned around and fought a war of annihilation that would be remembered throughout the ages.
From now on, the Wei State is undoubtedly the number one in the world in terms of territory, GDP, military strength, etc.
In Chengde Hall.
After the civil and military officials were overjoyed, Zhao Changqing issued an edict saying: "All the soldiers who participated in the battle to destroy the country will be rewarded, especially Bai Qi. I am determined to make him the Duke of Chu. When Chu is stabilized,
After the situation was over, he ordered his troops to return to the court. As for his subordinate Yue Fei, let him lead the 200,000 troops in Chu State to the battlefield of Jin State. All wars must be ended before the end of the year. When the war is over, Wanye will
When the state of Chu is prosperous, I will hold a consecration ceremony in the capital of the Chu State to inform heaven and earth that from now on, the territory of the Chu State will completely belong to the Wei State."
The ministers knelt down in the hall and shouted in unison: "Long live your Majesty!"
The original battle of Jin was not a war to destroy the country in the true sense.
After all, the Jin State, which originally had the most vast territory, included Duan State and Liang State, but the current Jin State territory does not include these two countries.
The Chu State is a country with a complete territory. The ability to destroy the Chu State is enough to show that the military strength of the Wei State has far exceeded that of the Jin State at its peak.
On the twenty-eighth day of the eighth month of the seventh year of Taichu, the state of Chu was destroyed by the state of Wei.
From then on, among all the countries in the world, there was no longer a state of Chu.
The seven-hero competition that only lasted for a few years has now fallen into a melee among six companies.
The years when the Seven Heroes were competing for hegemony were also considered by later historians to be the eve of the storm and the peak moment of the Cold War.
In the past few years, various countries have formed alliances, designated North Korea's enemies, and designated North Korea's enemies. There have been hundreds of diplomatic accidents every year.
It ranks among the best in all dynasties.
Those years were also the busiest years for the intelligence agencies of various countries.
The "Five Years Cold War", known as the "Five Years Cold War" by later generations, finally ended due to the pace of Wei's expansion. In the future, this period of history was also made into a TV series, and the title of the show was "Cold War". As soon as the show came out, it quickly
It dominated major news headlines and was the most popular drama at the time.
Zhao Changqing, dressed in a dragon robe, walked out of the Chengde Hall step by step amid the joy of the ministers.
The officials followed closely.
Zhao Changqing looked at the bright sun in the sky, stretched his waist, put his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "People are in high spirits when happy events happen! Here comes the halberd!"
After the guards guarding outside the palace heard the emperor's voice, they lifted it up as quickly as possible with two people, took a square-shaped halberd, walked to the emperor's eyes, and half-knelt on the ground.
Zhao Changqing looked at the halberd in front of him, and suddenly he felt a heroic spirit in the sky. He stroked the barrel of the gun patiently, as if he held the whole world in his hands.
Suddenly, he picked up the halberd and began to dance the Fangtian Painted Halberd under the scorching sun.
Wherever the tip of the halberd touched, there seemed to be dragon roars, one after another, extremely pleasant to the ear, and lasted for a long time.
Zhao Changqing, who was waving his halberd in the open space outside the main hall, seemed to have entered a state of selflessness and quickly performed a whole set of halberd techniques.
The tiger is full of power and displays the dignity of an emperor.
The halberd is a ceremonial object, but now, in the hands of Zhao Changqing, this halberd has shown great killing intent. Coupled with the strength of the land gods, it can actually cause strange phenomena to occur in the world.
In the sky, there are dark black clouds gathering, and there seem to be dragons undulating and tumbling in the clouds.
There are also auspicious birds and beasts gathered above the capital and have not dispersed for a long time.
On the ground, the entire capital city was enveloped by a dragon's roar.
At this time, a minister with quick eyesight and quick hands quickly knelt down on the ground and bowed to Zhao Changqing: "Your Majesty is the real Dragon Emperor!"
Then, he knocked his head heavily on the ground.
At this moment, all the remaining courtiers, concubines, guards, maids, and eunuchs knelt down on the ground, faced Zhao Changqing, and shouted: "Meet the True Dragon Emperor!"
From today onwards, there is a voice saying that Zhao Changqing is the reincarnation of the First Emperor of the Ancestral Dragon, and he came here to unify the troubled times.
Now, Zhao Changqing has long entered a state of selflessness and has no idea what is happening around him. He just feels that when he waves the halberd, he has a long-lost and hearty feeling, and his state of mind seems to be a little loose, faintly
There are signs of breaking through, but it seems to stop there. No matter how hard you try, you can never break through to the realm of heaven and man.
However, he was relatively satisfied.
Because he is a bit stronger than himself before wielding the halberd.
After using the halberd, Zhao Changqing closed his eyes and carefully understood the artistic conception just now. When he came back to his senses, he felt a sense of relief. He inserted the halberd directly into the marble floor and spoke.
Said: "Bring the wine!"
In this situation, we really need drinks to cheer us up.
Originally, the eunuchs wanted to take the wine in the jade bottle, but they were stopped by Jian Yi. Just now, he felt the subtle changes that happened to His Majesty. This was similar to the epiphany he had when he was given by the fox demon Mei Xi.
Different approaches but similar results, this situation and scene requires a large bowl of wine to fully enjoy it.
Therefore, he personally brought a jar of fine wine and a bowl from the cellar of the palace, came to the emperor, and poured the wine for him himself.
Zhao Changqing picked up the golden bowl, faced the sky where the dark clouds had dispersed and the vision had disappeared, and said with great enthusiasm: "This glass of wine is for Xiang Nantian, for giving me the chance to rise!"
After speaking, he poured the wine on the ground and handed the bowl to Jian Yi.
Jianyi understood his intention and poured wine for His Majesty the Emperor again.
Zhao Changqing held the bowl in both hands, faced Huang Tianhou Tu again, and said: "This glass of wine is dedicated to Emperor Renzong and my father! It was him who told me a truth, that is, the emperor should not be like him!"
After speaking, he poured the drink on the ground again.
Jian poured wine again and again.
Zhao Changqing remained as before and said loudly: "With this glass of wine, I honor the Five of Swords, Cao Shen, and the soldiers who died on the battlefield. I hope they will continue to follow me in the next life and make contributions!"
Jianyi continued to pour wine.
Zhao Changqing said impassionedly: "This glass of wine should be dedicated to Emperor Wei Ling, Jin Gaozong, Emperor Chu, and those enemies who have been against me in this life, because they created me! It was they who forced me to establish
Such great achievements! I don’t want what happens to them after death. I only wish that if there is an afterlife, let them be my enemies again!”
After hearing this, all the civil and military officials were filled with excitement, and they all involuntarily said in unison: "Long live your Majesty! Long live your Majesty!"
