Chapter 537 'History of Qin': The Emperor destroyed Wei in less than a month
Zhou Ji scraped his head against the city wall, like a snake without bones.
How much determination and strength do you need to be able to hit someone head-on to death?
Ying Chengyu didn’t know and couldn’t do it.
Death has always been the most terrifying thing for him, and he is afraid of death.
Looking at the fallen body, he seemed to see blood sliding down the wall, but in fact he couldn't see it at all from five hundred steps away.
In his eyes, he couldn't even clearly see Zhou Ji's appearance. He could only restore the appearance of Prime Minister Wei in his mind based on the memory of what he had just seen.
He seemed to see hot blood covering that resolute face, which was unyielding and unyielding even after being humiliated.
Pursing his mouth and sniffing, Ying Chengyu felt a little sad and a little shocked.
Warriors fighting to the death and literati admonishing to the death are really not ancient legends.
He saw it all this time, saw it with his own eyes.
"King Qin!"
On the top of the city, someone shouted.
Ying Chengyu followed the sound and raised his head to look up.
He saw a fiery red figure, whose clothes fluttered with the wind at the top of the city. It was extremely conspicuous among the dark silver scales of the surrounding soldiers, which could not be moved by the wind.
Even though there is no color difference, this figure is still conspicuous. He is a head taller than the people around him.
The Jin Kingdom originated from the royal family surnamed Ji and inherited the fire virtues of Zhou Dynasty.
When the Jin State was divided into three parts, the Wei State, which was relatively strong in the early stage, continued the Jin State's admiration, which was also the virtue of fire.
The burning red color does not fade even after five hundred steps.
There is no need to see the specific style of this dress, just the bright color and the timing of its appearance, which is beyond the control of the royal family.
"Wei Jiu!"
The man in red announced his identity.
Beside him, a large banner rose high, making a hunting sound, with a big word "Wei" written on it, the flag of the King of Wei!
Ying Chengyu sat astride the horse, his anger sinking in his Dantian. Regardless of the fact that the people on the top of the city couldn't see his expression, he nodded slightly, with a solemn look on his face, and reined in the horse.
"I am so lucky to be able to meet the King of Wei!"
"The King of Qin promised me something! Wei Guo will surrender immediately!"
On the top of the city, King Wei held a torch high over the top, with flames jumping and black smoke swimming.
"When the city gates are wide open, I hope the King of Qin will not hurt any of the people!"
The majestic city, which stood tall on the ground and had been submerged by floods, erupted into earth-shattering wails, which could still be heard clearly through the thick city wall and five hundred steps of open space.
"I promise you."
Ying Chengyu said seriously, and his strong inner strength helped his voice spread throughout Xiongcheng.
After agreeing to the conditions for the second time, he said softly:
"Don't worry, this is what I want to do."
"Thank you so much, King Qin."
The torch was taken off, and the fiery red fireworks flew across the sky. The flames were bright and bright!
The blazing flames burned on the top of Xiongcheng, fierce and blazing, igniting the flag of the King of Wei, intending to burn everything.
When the word "Wei" was swallowed up, there was a sound coming out of the fire.
"Wei has surrendered."
Wei Jiu, the king of Wei, burned himself on the city wall to protect the people of Wei and died for his country.
There was a loud cry, and the whole Daliang City was crying. The sorrow swept over like a prairie fire, and the second emperor was so burned that he temporarily forgot to breathe.
I only heard that the king died in the country, how could the emperor die for the people?
Lowering his head, the Second Emperor couldn't bear to look at the fireworks soaring into the sky. He never heard the painful wails from beginning to end.
Self-immolation, what a painful way to die.
Throw away the torch and burn yourself in the fire. How much determination and perseverance does a person who can move freely need to have to avoid escaping?
It only takes one gentle step, forward, backward, left or right. It only takes one step to get rid of the pain of burning your body.
But Wei Wang Jiu didn't move as if his legs were not his own...
"Your Majesty, the city gate is open."
Seeing the pleading eyes of the generals, the heroic Yue girl galloped forward, grabbed Ying Chengyu's overstretched and cold hand, and reminded her gently.
At this time, even Liu Bang, who was usually the most favored, did not dare to step forward to ask questions, even though there was only one word difference between "favorite minister" and "favorite concubine".
Ying Chengyu raised his head and looked forward. Not only was the city gate wide open, but a suspension bridge had also been hung on the moat surrounding the beam.
Daliangcheng was like a beauty who took off her clothes on her own initiative and was throwing herself into his arms.
But this beauty is crying.
Along with the opening of the city gate, there were also the cries of the people, pitiful and tragic...
After taking a long breath, the second emperor raised his head again. There was no one in the blazing flames.
"Do you know why King Wei stands taller than everyone else?"
Yue Nu Qiushui's eyes flashed with respect, and two balls of flame entered the water.
"He stepped on at least two feet of dry firewood and poured oil on it, otherwise the fire wouldn't have been so big."
A Yue girl lives for Baiyue, but she can die for Baiyue.
The Yue girl, who did not rule Baiyue but was supported by the people of Baiyue, could understand King Wei's choice better than the King of Qin next to her.
"Why do you think he placed the dry firewood so high and poured oil on it?"
Without asking Yue Nu to answer, Ying Chengyu didn't stop talking after asking and immediately gave the answer.
"I guess he was afraid of pain, afraid that the fire would be too small and he would suffer more. He was afraid of death, and afraid that the fire would burn too slowly, so he ran out."
Smile at yourself.
"This dispatch is to confirm my intention.
"Er Fancheng asked because he was afraid that I would break my words.
"The credibility of our country of Qin is really not very good. I, the King of Qin, must promise it in front of hundreds of thousands of people before I can rest assured.
"Tell them to go and take over this city. This is a relic of Wei Jiu, a gift from Wei to Qin."
The Yue girl looked back and nodded in greeting.
The generals who had been paying attention to the Second Emperor and Yue Fei immediately ordered the entire army to enter Daliang.
The Qin army, covered in darkness and coldly armored, marched forward in unison, stepping on the cries of the people in Daliang.
They walked on the same road, and they were also in the Wei Kingdom that respected the virtue of fire, liked the color red, had the surname Ji, and the surname Wei.
"Your Majesty, the Wei royal family and the Zhou family..."
General Liu Bang stopped as soon as he ordered, bowed and waited for his life.
Anyone who is not blind can see the second emperor's attitude towards Zhou Ji and King Wei.
In fact, not only Ying Chengyu, but also most of the generals had a favorable impression of this pair of monarchs and ministers.
Some people deserve respect even if they are enemies.
The Qin State fought all the way and had only one policy towards the nobles and wealthy people, which was to kill them all and leave no one alive.
But if Your Majesty wants to open a wide spectrum and leave one or two bloodlines for the Wei royal family and the Zhou family, and give birth to a few babies who don't remember anything and don't know anything, the generals will only agree and not object.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The flames on the top of the city and the corpses under the city wall should have descendants, even if their descendants know nothing.
Based on Zhu Jiang's understanding of his own king, their king will definitely do this.
Your Majesty has always cherished and valued heroes. He has a benevolence that is not understood by others and is more benevolent than a woman.
Wei Palace.
In front of the grand palace gate, Fan Kuai, who was assigned here, was holding his butcher knife and cursing.
"Killing so many birdmen along the way, Nai Gong should just kill a few more brats! What's the big deal!"
His expression was ferocious, but his steps were half a step forward, one step back, and hesitant in front of the door. This butcher general had never felt that the butcher knife in his hand was so heavy.
"Get out of here! I'm familiar with this place! I'll take it!"
A hand reached out, pulled the butcher aside, walked past him, and entered the palace gate without hesitation.
This man's walking was bumpy and wobbly, and he wished he could occupy an entire street.
No one could be so arrogant in a general uniform except Liu Bang, the ruffian general.
Fan Kuai gritted his teeth and caught up, blocking Liu Bang in front of him. His strong body was like a mountain.
"It's better for me to do it. It's not good to just ask the elder brother to do everything."
His eldest brother Liu Ji once worked under Wei Wuji, and was a disciple of Zhang Er, Lord Xinling's most powerful disciple.
Liu Ji boasted a lot in Peixian County and was valued by Lord Xinling. However, after careful investigation, he discovered the identity of his retainer and found that the sage Zhang Er had never put him in high regard. Naturally, he no longer paid attention to him and regarded him as an ordinary city fox.
The community rat brags and talks about the mountains.
But as Liu Ji's best brother, Fan Kuai knew that what his eldest brother said was important to Lord Xinling was true, and when it was true, it was also false.
As the person in charge of Qi and Chu who restored the Wei Dynasty, his eldest brother was given a name by Zhang Er - Bang, which means the state of peace and stability.
When the time comes, brother Liu Ji, who usually breaks into the widow's house and leads them to freeload and act like scoundrels, will turn into Wei general Liu Bang, gather the remnants of Lord Xinling of Qi and Chu, respond to Wei's uprising, and overthrow the violent Qin.
Naturally, Liu Ji was very familiar with the palace of the King of Wei.
As an important disciple of the great sage Zhang Er of the Wei state, the person whose name was remembered by Wei Wuji, Lord Xinling, often entered the palace of the Wei Dynasty.
Now, the ruffian Liu Ji has become the general Liu Bang, but this name and body were given by Qin, not Wei.
But with the relationship he had in the past, how could Fan Kuai let his eldest brother step in for him? It would be much harder for him than his eldest brother.
Liu Bang shook his head and laughed, pointing at his brother.
"As a butcher, do you want to compete with Nai Gong for credit? You won't have as much credit as Nai Gong if you enter this sect, so why don't you give it to Nai Gong?"
"...Brother, what do you mean by this?"
"Other people don't know about my past, but you and Lu Wan don't know about it?"
The ruffian general raised his eyebrows, pushed the butcher aside, and pointed to the vacant palace door.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Nai Gong can take this opportunity to make a clean break with Wei and eliminate the last hidden danger!
"Your Majesty knows about my past and sees my actions, so you should know that I am loyal. You can only get one piece of merit for your advancement, but if I gain your Majesty's trust, I will have more than ten merits!"
He grabbed Fan Kuai's armor and pulled it back hard.
"Get out of here, get out of here, don't delay, you will get promoted and make a fortune, strong winds will blow, the clouds will fly, you will return to your hometown in the sea, and you will be safe and strong, and you will guard the four directions!"
Liu Bang, with his eyebrows dancing and dancing, humming the song of the wind, entered the palace gate of Wei Palace under Fan Kuai's silent gaze.
Inside, there was blood everywhere, and Qin soldiers killed everyone on sight.
Cries, begging for mercy, wailing, and flattering voices who are willing to sacrifice their bodies just to survive.
The sorghum and pillars are all intact, supporting the solemn palaces.
At the foot of the hall, the porcelain was broken into pieces, and some of the open wooden boxes were empty, while some had some gold and silver jewelry left in them. It was a mess.
Liu Bang took out the Qin Sword from his waist, and according to his past memories, he headed towards the hollow hole in the rockery and the secret passage underground of the palace that was difficult to find because of the hidden people in the palace.
"The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying!"
The hole in the rockery was covered with dust, and through the dust one could still see a beautiful young woman in luxurious clothes willing to die.
She held up the swaddled baby with both hands, licked her fingers, and looked at Liu Bang's giggling baby with her big black eyes. Her clothes were half unbuttoned, revealing her fragrant shoulders and chest.
She was the concubine of the King of Wei, and she was willing to give her all, just to save the life of her child for the general in front of her.
Qin's sword slashed and slashed, killing two people with one sword. There were no sounds of laughter and begging, and there was only room for singing.
"Weijiahai is back home!"
Liu Bang, who took the initiative to participate in the killing, was very scared. The more scared he was, the louder his singing became.
The second emperor stood on horseback. Liu Bang lowered his head beside him. With the word "respect" written all over his body, he bowed and asked respectfully:
"Your Majesty, the Wei royal family and the Zhou family..."
"General Liu's words are very informative. Do you have any advice?"
Obviously there was a smile in his words, but Liu Bang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his legs were weak and he almost fell to the ground!
"A strong warrior will guard all sides!"
There was blood on Liu Bang's armor, blood on his face, and blood all over his body, making him a real bloody man.
He sang loudly and stabbed his sword again, and new blood fell on him, leaving two more corpses, one large and one small.
He didn't dare to stop, not even to sing or to kill.
He didn't know whether he was atonement or making meritorious deeds.
Compared with wealth and life, integrity, friendship, kindness, hatred, parents, women, friends, teachers... nothing can be discarded.
As long as others are around, what is lost can be found again.
In the first year of the Second Emperor, on March 28, the Qin army entered Daliang and liberated the last city of Wei.
The people of Qiu will never offend.
No nobles were left.
At this moment, only twenty-five days have passed since March 3rd, when the Qin army set off for the expedition.
"History of Qin": The emperor destroyed Wei in less than a month.
Outside the city, Ying Chengyu stood still. He did not want to enter this majestic city and was crying too loudly.
Only a country that is truly loved by its people and a king that is truly loved by its people can burst into such great sadness after the king's death.
He knew without entering the city that King Jiu of Wei was definitely a good king in terms of dealing with the people.
What Zhou Ji said was not alarmist. If King Jiu of Wei refused to surrender, the people of Liang would fight their king until the last moment.
It is inevitable that the Qin State can attack the next beam, and it is also inevitable that it will get a beam full of ruins.
Turning the horse's head and rubbing the center of his brow, Ying Chengyu had a bitter look on his face.
"Another bullet hit."
Yue Nu followed silently, half a horse's head behind.
Hold the horse's belly lightly with your legs, slow down the horse, and look ahead.
"Don't you want to question me?"
"My husband is smarter than me and always makes sense when doing things."
"Ha, if you say that, you still want to keep people."
There was a touch of sadness on the Yue girl's face.
"I really can't figure out why I can't keep one or two babies. They won't know anything. Besides..."
She looked at her sweetheart, her eyes like stars, and put her bare hands on a certain ruthless man's eyebrows, trying to caress away the mixed sorrow.
"Is it because they want revenge when they grow up, so my husband is afraid? My husband is obviously not afraid of anyone, he can even let go of Gui Guzi, so why can't he..."
"I am not the Lord of Chang'an now, but a king, the king of Qin. My rain and dew will only be left to the people of Qin."
The face of my sweetheart was cold and indifferent that Yue girl had never seen before.
"There is no such thing as affection between countries, and there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests."
Yue Nu didn't understand, but she stopped asking. She looked away in a bad mood.
On the road that should have been empty and deserted, she saw a large banner approaching, with the word "Qi" written in blue on it.
Except for the different handwriting, it is exactly the same as the "Wei" scroll that was swallowed up by the fire along with King Jiu of Wei.
