Chapter 735 Wu Xiong surrenders and Qingyun Pass is broken
"July battle report, Jingguo general Chen Maokai led 100,000 Jingjun troops to conquer Bianzhou in 23 days, attacked Jinzhou on July 30th, and half of Jinzhou fell on August 15th!"
"General Cheng of Jing State led 100,000 Jing troops to conquer Liangzhou in 20 days, attacked Xizhou on July 26th, completely defeated Xizhou on August 17th, and is now marching towards Juzhou!"
"Jingguo General Gao Yuan led 100,000 Jingjun troops to conquer Guanzhou in twenty-seven days, and attacked Qingzhou in early August. Qingzhou was completely defeated three days ago! So far, the twenty states of Zhou Kingdom have basically fallen to six states!"
All the generals looked pale! One person yelled, "How is this possible! How could three Jing armies conquer the six states of our country in less than a month and two months! Do they Jing people know how to fly?"
"It's not over yet, continue." Wu Xiong said calmly, but his heart was already in turmoil.
Even though I have read this battle report more than once, I still feel incredible at this moment.
Vice General Yuan continued, "In two months, our army lost 230,000 soldiers, and Jing's army suffered casualties."
He paused and guessed, "Less than thirty thousand!"
Silly!
All the guards at Qingyun Pass were dumbfounded. Vice Admiral Yuan continued, "According to the spies' investigation, the three Jing armies basically encountered no resistance except at the beginning when they encountered strong resistance in Liangzhou, Bianzhou and Guanzhou."
"Wherever Jing's army went, officers and soldiers from all over the country turned to the ground and surrendered! There was even a feat where three Jing's soldiers captured a thousand of our troops."
"Grass!"
After hearing this outrageous news, the generals finally knew how Jing Jun had captured so many chassis so quickly.
The co-author was submitted before it was even published, right?
Wu Xiong finally spoke at this time, looking at the many generals and smiling, "Some of you are my old subordinates, and some are the original guards of Qingyun Pass. I have no other meaning to listen to this battle report with you now."
"I just want to listen to your opinions. Some of you don't know the state of Qian
I know how powerful the cannon is, so."
Wu Xiong slowly raised his hands and said, "Raise your hands if you agree to surrender."
Many generals were dumbfounded. Did they call us here to discuss surrender?
Vice-General Yuan was the second to raise his hand, followed by those who had fought with Wu Xiong and Qianjun.
Many soldiers came over.
Wu Xiong sighed, "Raise your hands if you agree to fight Qianjun to the end!"
More than a dozen generals raised their hands, and Wu Xiong nodded and coughed.
The next moment, the surrounding soldiers drew their knives and stabbed these generals to death.
These generals could not believe it until they died.
Wu Xiong said, "Okay, it seems that no one intends to fight to the end and bury the body properly. Vice General Yuan will inform the defenders to open the city gate!"
After the body was carried away, Wu Xiong took off his armor and stood behind the city gate, as if he was the first to welcome Qian's army as they entered the gate.
The city gates were opened wide, and Zhou Long led an army of 150,000 people into the city.
Turning over and dismounting, Zhou Long narrowed his eyes and looked at Wu Xiong, the old friend Zhao Kang mentioned. He only felt a little sad in his heart, not disdainful.
As a soldier, Wu Xiong's surrender was really a disgrace to a soldier, but Zhou Long thought for a moment, if he were the enemy of Zhao Kang, the national counselor, and faced the cannons of the state of Qian.
How would you choose when faced with a battle you can't win?
Just thinking about it for a moment, Zhou Long shuddered and thought about what to do!
"General Wu Xiong." Zhou Long greeted.
Wu Xiong nodded slightly, and then said, "The soldiers in the pass have all removed their armor. On the battlefield ahead, Jing's army will not kill the soldiers!"
Zhou Long smiled and said, "It's the same for us in the army."
Wu Xiong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. There was nothing he could do. When Qian Jun attacked Qi State, the ruthless people were too strong!
The Qi army, as well as the powerful clans of Qi State, had more than tens of thousands of people die by their swords.
So much so that there are no clans left in the entire land of the original Qi State.
They were all dug up by Zhao Kang with Qian Guo!
"What will the general do next?" Wu Xiong hesitated before asking.
Zhou Long laughed and said, "I don't trust the soldiers to go fight with us, and they probably won't want to either. So before I came, the Imperial Guard asked me to bring a message to General Wu Xiong."
"What are you talking about?" Wu Xiong asked quickly.
"General, continue to lead people to guard Qingyun Pass. In the future, in the court of Xingan Kingdom, the title of second-grade military general will definitely have a place for general."
After Zhou Long finished speaking, he patted Wu Xiong on the shoulder, "We will all be from the Qian country from now on, don't be so nervous!"
Wu Xiong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After he took Zhou Long away, he murmured, "From the second grade, you're not too young."
Damn it!
Wu Xiong suddenly cursed and walked away!
From now on, I can also use cannons to bombard people, so I won’t be bombarded all day long!
I'm afraid only God knows how much psychological shadow that scene caused to Wu Xiong when he saw Long Han being torn apart by a bombardment in Huajing City.
Yandu City.
Countless scholars wearing long robes gathered in front of the imperial city.
The leader raised his arms and shouted.
"We still need an explanation from Your Majesty! How did the late Emperor die?"
"That's right! Was he killed by traitors who joined forces with the country like Jing Jun said?"
"The country will not be a country! What is it?"
Who is corrupting my great Zhou Dynasty?"
"Come out and give us an explanation!"
Thousands of students have arrived in the imperial city at this moment, and the eight gates of the imperial capital are completely surrounded.
It was useless even if the Imperial Guard came forward.
Zhao Kang's influence on public opinion is so terrifying that it is now spread throughout Yandu City in an orderly manner, and some people are secretly adding fuel to the flames.
Therefore, not only these people, but also the learned scholars from the academy also gathered here.
The residence of the Minister of Civil Affairs.
Mr. Liu was drinking tea when the housekeeper hurried over. He quickly put down the tea bowl and asked, "How's it going?"
The butler cautiously said, "People were surrounded in front of the imperial city gate, and they were all calling for an explanation from your majesty. The master is too scary."
With a sneer, Master Liu chuckled, "It's still early, let's continue to find a few people to spread the word..."
Mr. Liu told the housekeeper everything he saw on the night Li Chengkun died suddenly, and asked him to continue to fan the flames.
He was also one of the people who contributed to the flames. Now the ministers in the court feel like Ming Jing.
The Kingdom of Zhou is about to perish!
It's time to find a way out for yourself.
At this time, the housekeeper came back with a letter in his hand: "Master, this is a letter sent by Mr. Qi."
"Qi Feng?" Mr. Liu was stunned for a moment. He opened the letter and took a look. It was obviously a hot day, but he broke into a cold sweat and even the letter fell to the ground.
The housekeeper scratched his head and asked, "What's wrong, sir?"
"Wu Xiong surrenders, the Qian army has entered the pass!" Mr. Liu swallowed and looked in the direction of the imperial city.
