Tang Yin bent down, grabbed An General's neck and lifted him up. As his mind turned, the fire of darkness was born, and with a roar, the black flames instantly spread to General An's body.
The general screamed and kicked his legs in the air a few times. Then, he gradually stopped struggling. His whole body looked as if his essence had been blown dry. His skin was ashen and even his pupils turned gray-black.
, a large amount of mist emitted from his body, and was then sucked up by Tang Yin without missing a trace.
He looked up and exhaled, then threw away the body in his hand like a rag doll, snorted coldly, and said with a sneer: "I don't know whether to live or die, don't know how to live, and so on, it is not a pity to die!"
Tang Yin consumed General An with the fire of darkness. The ministers of Anguo present had never seen such a terrifying scene. People looked at Tang Yin as if they wanted to see a monster. Their bodies were trembling suddenly, their calves were spinning, and the clothes on their backs were all scratched.
Soaked in sweat.
"Everyone, please stop joking with your lives. I will ask you one last time, should you stand on the left or on the right?"
This time, as soon as he finished speaking, a large group of civil servants ran to the queue of generals on the opposite side. They all stood with their heads bowed, staring at their toes, not daring to look at Tang Yin or anyone else.
"Well, is this right? In fact, it's not that difficult to choose between standing on the left and on the right!"
Tang Yin smiled crookedly. As he spoke, he slowly turned around and looked to the right. Seeing that there were still several civil servants who had not moved, he asked with a smile: "What? Are you determined to fight with the emperor and me?"
Have you gone against it to the end?”
Among the remaining civil servants, the highest-ranking official was Zeng Sheng, the imperial censor. He did not look at Tang Yin, but said quietly: "Of course we are loyal to the emperor, but we are ashamed to associate with Feng Ren!"
Tang Yin raised his eyebrows, raised his hand and pointed at Zeng Sheng, and said: "Sign up!"
"Anguo, Censor Zeng Sheng!" Zeng Sheng raised his head and met Tang Yin's eyes without fear.
Oh? Doctor Yushi! Tang Yin frowned secretly. Anguo's general Wei Chiyu was captured by Qi Heng in front of the two armies and died in his own camp. Anguo's right minister Wu Sicong was just thrown into the frying pan, and left minister Gao Zhen also died.
After being killed, Zeng Sheng was the only first-rank minister left in Anguo. If he were to kill this person again, it would be really difficult for us to appease Anren. Thinking of this, he smiled slightly and said meaningfully
"Master Zeng, it is a foregone conclusion that Anguo will be merged into Fengguo. From now on, Andi will also be governed by Feng people. However, Master Zeng should know clearly that Feng people are not good at governing the country. He will not know how to govern Andi in the future."
How many people in Andi will be harmed, I think, Mr. Zeng doesn’t want the people of Andi to suffer, right?”
"What does King Feng mean by this?" Zeng Sheng stared at Tang Yin, not quite understanding what he meant.
"What I mean is that it is most appropriate for the people of An to govern the land of An. Now, the only person who can take on this important task is Mr. Zeng. I wonder what Mr. Zeng wants?"
After hearing Tang Yin's words, the Anguo ministers present were moved in their hearts. From a selfish point of view, Andi was governed by the people of An, and they also hoped that this would be the case. In this way, they would not be dismissed from office and could continue to receive their salaries and stay.
Serve as an official in the court.
People looked at Zeng Sheng eagerly, hoping that he would agree to Tang Yin. Regardless of public or private affairs, it would be a blessing among misfortunes for An people to govern An land.
Zeng Sheng was of course aware of the stakes involved, but he still didn't know what Tang Yin's true purpose was. Whether he really wanted to use Anren to govern Andi, or whether he planned to use this as a cover to make a transition, and wait until Andi was stabilized in the future.
Kick An Ren away.
As if seeing his concerns, Tang Yin said seriously: "If you and Anren can manage Andi well and all industries prosper and prosper, of course I will continue to use you Anren. On the contrary, I will not raise useless people."
Waste, Mr. Zeng, what do you mean?"
Zeng Sheng didn't reply immediately. He lowered his head and thought for a long time. Finally, he took a deep breath and still didn't say a word, but he slowly walked to the ministers on the left.
Seeing Zeng Sheng's compromise, the ministers on the left were all relieved. At the same time, the remaining ministers on the right also lost the courage to continue and followed Zeng Sheng and stood on the left.
Tang Yin held up his palms and laughed, saying: "Is this right? Cooperating with me will be beneficial to everyone. If you go against me, you will only suffer!"
"Yes..." Several relieved ministers responded to Tang Yin's words, but subconsciously looked at Zeng Sheng, whose face was gloomy, and they swallowed back their compliments.
Zeng Sheng cleared his throat and asked: "Does His Majesty Feng Wang really mean what he just said about An people governing An?"
"Of course." Tang Yin answered simply.
"Then I wonder which An person will be in charge of An Di?"
"Of course it's you, Mr. Zeng." Tang Yin didn't even think about it.
"In this case, I have a merciless request. I hope His Highness Feng Wang can forgive the left prime minister and the family of the right prime minister." Zeng Sheng cupped his hands and said: "There are already enough dead souls in the Feng'an dispute today, so I would like to ask His Highness Feng Wang.
show mercy!"
Zeng Sheng didn't know if he had the ability to protect Wu Sicong and Gao Zhen's family, but at this point, he could only do his best.
Tang Yin looked at Zeng Sheng with a flash of light in his eyes. This man was really good at beating snakes with a stick, and he actually used his own words to defeat his own army.
He stared at Zeng Sheng for a moment, then smiled, nodded and said: "Since Lord Zeng is interceding for mercy, I cannot punish their families severely. However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be forgiven. Wu Sicong and Gao Zhen's family members,
They were all sent to the border gates of Huandi as slaves."
Zeng Sheng's heart trembled. Huandi's border gate was adjacent to a barbarian country. There had been wars for many years. One could imagine the hardships involved in being a slave at the border gate.
But he also knew in his heart that Tang Yin's willingness to do this had already given him a lot of face. If he continued to beg for help, it would be counterproductive.
He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you to Fengwangdian Tang Yin for forcing the ministers of Anguo to express their stance in the palace, which resulted in the death of both the left and right prime ministers of Anguo. However, he finally conquered Zeng Sheng, which can be regarded as something gained.
Later, Tang Yin's court conferred the title of Chief Inspector of Andi on Zeng Sheng, and also assigned two deputy envoys to him. Both of them were Feng people. They said they were assisting Zeng Sheng, but in fact they exercised the power of supervision.
As for the other ministers of Anguo, they also have official positions. Although they are much lower than their official positions in Anguo, their specific powers and salaries are similar.
When it comes to governing the country and local areas, Tang Yin has less and less confidence in Lao Feng people. He uses An people to govern An area and adds Lao Feng people to exercise supervision. This is what he thinks is the most practical and feasible method at present.
Of course, doing so will also leave great hidden dangers, that is, these former court officials can easily harbor and condone the local resistance forces and support them to fight against Feng State. However, Anguo's situation is quite special. Anren likes comfort by nature and has a national concept.
There was almost no resistance in the counties occupied by the Feng Kingdom. This was the main reason why Tang Yin could rest assured to let the An people govern An Di.
After capturing Yuzhen, the Feng army did not rush south to capture the remaining counties in Andi. Instead, they conducted a major rest and reorganization in Yuzhen and replenished recruits, grain, grass and armaments.
Yuzhen was one of the few large towns at that time. Its scale and prosperity were better than Zhenjiang, even more than Jiren, the capital of Sichuan Kingdom, and second only to the imperial capital Shangjing.
Tang Yin settled in Yuzhen, and the more he lived there, the more he liked it, and the idea of moving the capital came up in his mind. However, Feng State had just moved its capital to Zhenjiang. If he moved the capital to Yuzhen now, it would be a waste of people and money, and Feng State's national strength could not support it, so he
I can only think in my mind that it is not realistic to actually do it. In addition, Anguo is close to Shangjing. After Fengguo completely annexes Anguo, the next goal will naturally be Shangjing. Even if the capital is to be moved, it must be to Shangjing.
At the thought of capturing Shangjing, the capital of the empire, Tang Yin's blood filled with warlike factors began to boil again. Of course, Shangjing was still firmly controlled by the Sichuan Kingdom. To capture Shangjing would be like declaring war on the Sichuan Kingdom.
, Feng Guo cannot do this in a short period of time.
Feng Jun rested in Yuzhen for a month. During this month, the Anguo court began to operate again, but now the court's allegiance had been changed to Tang Yin.
Zeng Sheng, who was appointed as the general inspection envoy of An Di, was in charge of all the affairs of An Di. Two deputy envoys from Feng people were put in place one after another. One was Wen Hao and the other was Tang Yu. They were both from Lao Feng people and both were Tang Yin.
One of the most trustworthy ministers.
Tang Yin's policy of An people to govern An was very successful. During this period, no disturbance occurred in Yuzhen. It returned to normal soon after it was occupied by the Feng army. At least for An people, life was still the same as before, and there was no reason for being occupied.
What changes occurred due to the annexation of Feng Kingdom?
A month later, the fully rested Feng Army began to march south. The Pingyuan Army, the Sky Eagle Army, the Ninth Army, and the New Army successively left Yuzhen and divided into four groups to attack the counties and counties in Andi south of Yuzhen.
Tang Yin and his direct troops stayed in Yuzhen. In Tang Yin's view, the next war would become very easy. After all, Anguo was destroyed and the monarch was 'dead'. The defenders everywhere could no longer have strong fighting spirit.
The army can be subdued as soon as it passes by.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Even the imperial court has surrendered to the Feng Kingdom. How can the local government and local army still use the mantis arm as a chariot to fight against the Feng Army alone?
In less than a month, the four armies of Feng State have successively captured the five counties of Yihe, Gaoji, Xiaguan, Liuyang, and Baijin. So far, 16 of Anguo's 19 counties have been controlled.
In Fengguo's hands, only the three counties of Zhuyang, Hengshui, and Kawakou were left unconquered.
Among these three counties, Zhuyang is adjacent to Shangjing, Hengshui is adjacent to Sichuan and belongs to Zhendi, and Sichuankou is adjacent to the mainland of Sichuan Province. They are all sensitive places.
