Chapter 707 The Foundation of All Eternals (Fourth Update)

A few months later, the five great masters joined forces with the great gentry to raise an army, almost igniting the war fires of Jiangdong. Now, with Lu Xun's rapid pacification, only the Chen family and the Xue family were trapped in Kuaiji County.

First, they had no name, but just rebelled for the sake of rebellion. Second, they had no foreign aid. Now, it was a matter of time before Lu Xun's army was entrenched outside and destroyed.

The small town called Shantun is the foundation of the Chen family's founding. The Chen family's ancestral tombs are all outside the city.

At this moment, Chen Xiong and Xue Xun, the two clan leaders, were sitting together in the study of Chen's ancestral home.

Both of them looked extremely haggard.

They thought they could use their might to force Kou Feng to compromise, and even further drive Kou Feng away. From their own people, they selected the lord of Jiangdong and dominated Jiangdong.

But unexpectedly, Kou Feng was so powerful.

Kill decisively.

Lu Xun was even more capable of commanding troops, and he defeated them and almost failed to defeat them.

If the literati rebelled for ten years, they would not be able to do anything. How could they be Lu Xun's opponents, who were pampered and respected, lead troops to fight?

But at this time, it is too late to know that I regret it.

"How should we decide now?" Chen Xiong's expression was no longer as energetic as a few months ago. The divine light in his eyes also became dim and he was very decadent.

"The army is approaching. If Lu Xun breaks the city, you and I will be beheaded like those clan leaders. The family is small and the clan members are slaves." Xue Xun said pale.

Over the past few months, countless families of all sizes were destroyed. Without exception, the clan leader was killed and his family was slave. If his clan members had a bad reputation, they would be killed and their family members were slaves.

Since ancient times, scholars have been very strong.

Even if the country is destroyed, the families of these scholars will not be allowed to be slaves to others. There are, but there are very few. But the Kou Feng is to eliminate future troubles.

Not only did these people become slaves, but they even burned the books in their homes.

It’s okay to become a slave from other people, but if they don’t have any books, their descendants will never have the chance to revive, and it can be said that they will be slaves for generations.

This is really cruel and decisive.

The Chu State Kou Feng planned to make the Jiangdong gentry lose their descendants to stabilize and stabilize Jiangdong.

I'm afraid that before this incident happened, not only the Jiangdong gentry, but even the people in the world would not have thought that Kou Feng was so strong, so cruel and decisive.

Do it as soon as you say it.

In order to promote the Chu State, whoever stops will die. Even if it is caused by war, the losses for a while can be ignored. For the sake of stability in Jiangdong.

Destroy Shanyue and destroy the gentry. After stabilizing Jiangdong, Jiangdong became the hinterland and granary of Chu.

Jiangdong is not rich, that's right. But that's because most of Jiangdong's troops were dragged down by Shanyue. Thirty percent of the tax revenue was controlled by the aristocratic people.

That's why Sun Quan seemed a little weaker.

Historically, the Wu Kingdom had basically made no achievements except for seizing Jingzhou in the war against the Shu Kingdom. This is also because of this.

Now, Kou Feng first eliminated Shanyue and then subjugated the gentry. It can be said that Jiangdong has stabilized. With 1.5 million Jiangdong, as long as it develops well, just like Jingzhou, it is a matter of time before it reaches prosperity.

Kou Feng was a long-term plan, first of chaos and then rule.

But Kou Feng is the only one who can do such a ruthless move. No one who has ruled Jiangdong has ever been so decisive.

In his heart, Chen Xiong had already outlined a generation of heroes who swept through all obstacles with his fierce and domineering momentum. Kou Feng was the hero of the world.

Very comparable.

Chen Xiong almost regretted it in his heart.

They were too confident and too confident at the beginning.

"Can we open the city now and please surrender?" Xue Xun asked carefully.

"Subdue?" Chen Xiong's eyes lit up. This is definitely a good idea. But is it feasible?

Chen Xiong was a little hesitant, but then he made a decision. Anyway, he was trapped in the city and died sooner or later. It would be better to seek life in death, please surrender.

"Okay, I'll send someone to surrender immediately."

Chen Xiong suddenly stood up and said: Hundreds of years of operation must not be destroyed in his hands.

The gentry cherishes the family, so they are in a group. But they are even more afraid of the disaster of extermination. As long as they can solve the disaster of extermination this time, Chen Xiong can do whatever it takes.

Inside the city are the two clan private soldiers trapped in the city, while outside the city are the majestic Chu soldiers.

Now that Jiangdong has been pacified again, Zhou Tai, Lu Meng, Fang Dao and others have returned to their bases, preparing to continue to defend the remaining Shanyue. Only Lu Xun, who was already in Kuaiji, led 10,000 elite troops to continue to attack Chen Xiong and Xue Xun.

Because the victory was imminent, Yangzhou Governor Yi Ji also led some entourages and brought some food, intending to reward the entire army.

At this moment, Yi Ji, Gu Yong, Lu Xun and other three people sat down in the central army's tent.

In terms of position, Lu Xun is actually higher. However, according to power, his qualifications are higher than Yiji. Therefore, Yiji sat in the handsome seat.

Lu Xun and Gu Yong sat on both sides.

"All the generals are really brave. When the emperor was in Moling, he discussed with me. They all thought that it would take several years to quell the rebellion in Jiangdong. They didn't expect that within a few months, the beacons all over the sky would disappear." Yi Ji said with emotion.

Lu Xun, Lu Meng and other old generals from Jiangdong were indeed very outstanding, and they were invincible by relying on elite troops.

"It's not because of our bravery, but because the situation is different." Lu Xun did not dare to take credit when he heard this, but sighed.

"The pacification of Shanyue has made the people of the emperor in Jiangdong reach a level that is comparable to the Sun family in the past, and even slightly higher. The prestige of this kind, even if the aristocrats incite the rebellion in the village, there are very few people to cater to. Therefore, it is easy to deal with. If the emperor had not pacified Shanyue's rebellion, it would have been a year or two." Lu Xun said very respectfully.

Lu Xun was originally from a big clan and was very clear about the power of the big clan. One of them was that there were many slaves in their family, and they could immediately stop thousands or even ten thousand troops.

They also have their own equipment, etc., which is very difficult to deal with.

The second is its prestige in the village. If there are any clan disputes in the village, the first one to look for will definitely not be the government office, but the local clan.

Over time, the prestige of the great clan gradually increased. As long as you climb a high place and shout, followers will gather.

But Kou Feng first designed himself to pacify Shanyue, and increased his prestige countless times in the hearts of the people of Jiangdong. Then he began to eradicate the gentry.

In the conflict with the gentry, most people did not help the gentry. It was like cutting off the gentry's arm, which led to today's great victory.

In just a few months, most of the rebellions of the gentry in Jiangdong were put down.

If the cause and effect were achieved, I would probably use the trick of the enemy to cut off the Shanyue food route and pacify the Shanyue, so that the gentry can be suppressed so quickly today.

"Haha, that's right. The Lord of the Lord's plan to pacify the mountains and the Yue. We waited for the back, but instead entrusted the Lord with the blessing of the Lord." Yi Ji joked, but he said respectfully.

Originally, Yiji believed that being in charge of Jiangdong and becoming the governor of Yangzhou would be a chore. Yiji himself likes to explore and trouble. Therefore, he even went to Taiwan with an unknown future and established a Taiwan foundation for Kou Feng.

The foundation for pacifying Wu and Yue was established.

There are two major harms in Yangzhou: Shanyue and the gentry. Originally, Yiji believed that he would also have to spend a lot of time and energy to govern Yangzhou for Kou Feng.

But unexpectedly, Kou Feng made a clever plan to pacify Shanyue, which he had not been able to subdue for thousands of years. He then indirectly laid the foundation for pacifying the gentry.

The solution was thought of by Kou Feng himself. This made them admire him and felt a little more ashamed. They made great contributions to wars outside, but in fact they entrusted Kou Feng's blessing.

I feel ashamed.

A little respect appeared on Gu Yong's face.

Indeed, Kou Feng is always a good example. He is really an extraordinary person.

Just as the three of them were respectful, Chen Xiong's envoy arrived.

"Qi reported to the governor, the rebel Chen Xiong sent someone to ask for a visit." The guard reported.

"Hmph, this is a request to be soft." Lu Xun snorted coldly and said disdainfully. He was really bored. When he first started to attack Chu, he incited many people to rebel with his words, but in the end he was actually corrupt.

Since Kou Feng rescued Lu Xun from the quagmire of Jiangdong, Lu Xun has been a complete loyalist, and none of them have a good impression of these gentry who incited rebellion.

"If you want to surrender, we cannot make a decision in private. It is better to see this person first and then report it to the lord. Please make a decision." Yiji shook his head and said steadily.

Whether they accept surrender or not, it is difficult for them to make decisions as ministers.

"Please come in." Lu Xun nodded and waved.

"No." The guard shouted, turned around and left. Soon after, he walked in with a middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man looks really good, but he looks haggard and stressed.

"Liar Chen Feng, I have met all the experts." Chen Feng bowed to Yi Ji and others one by one.

He was Chen Xiong's clan brother, and he had some knowledge, so he was sent to seek surrender.

"But come and ask for surrender?" Yi Ji didn't despise him, but instead said with a kind look.

"Yes. The head of the family mistakenly believed people's words and mistakenly raised an army to oppose the wise king. Today, I have regretted it. Please let the adults go out and say a word." Chen Feng looked humble and almost begged.

"I cannot decide this matter. If Chen Xiong is sincere, he can send his descendants over. I will write a letter to the king. If the king agrees, he can surrender. If the king does not agree, he will be sorry to him." Yi Ji said lightly.

In fact, Yi Ji knew in his heart that Kou Feng would not agree. Because Kou Feng's name was the right law, according to the law, it was illegal for Chen Xiong and other gentry to have many slaves.

More than the amount legally owned.

Of course this is not a joke. The most evil one should be punished. In addition, Kou Feng himself is a tough and decisive person who will never regret compromising after taking action. Most of the people who want to destroy his family.

"Thank you, sir." But Chen Feng didn't know what Yi Ji was thinking, but instead bowed happily.

Immediately, Chen Feng returned to the city and brought one of Chen Xiong's sons over, which was considered a hostage. Yi Ji also wrote a document to Kou Feng and asked Kou Feng to make a decision.

At present, Chen Xiong is already surviving, and this trip is not considered delaying military information.

The fourth update is here, to be honest. I have been updating for several days, and Sanqi felt a little uncomfortable. Today I only planned to update for the fourth update. But after looking at the time, there was still some time before twelve o'clock.

Let’s see if you can make another update.

During this period, I really have the desire to write, haha.
Chapter completed!
