Chapter 651: Infighting in South Vietnam
"Everyone, please listen to my words!"
The expression on Li Daiquan's face did not change at all. He stood up from his seat, glanced at everyone, and said word by word: "Although the Han people learned the ways of Confucius and Mencius, they were also the most cunning people. Do you think they could believe their words? Think about my father, who had surrendered to the Han people in the past, and there were many generals with him, but they were all killed by the Han people in the end? Perhaps, it's okay for you to surrender to Song Que now, but can you guarantee that you can be safe and sound after you arrive in Chang'an? Since they are all dead, why not fight a bloody road?"
"this…"
After hearing Li Daiquan's words, everyone thought it seemed quite reasonable. Everyone knew what Li Daiquan said about his father.
Li Fozi, the elder brother of Li Tianbao, was Li Daiquan's father. Li Fozi had occupied Jiaozhou after several battles. However, Yang Jian, who was in power at that time, naturally would not sit idly by and watch Jiaozhou go out independent. So he followed the advice of the Zuo Pushe Yang Su and appointed Liu Fang, the prefect of Guazhou as the general manager of the military commander of the Jiaozhou Road. Jing Deliang, the assistant minister of the Duzhi, as the chief secretary, and commanded the 27th battalion to fight. Li Fozi sent more than 2,000 people to defend. Song Zuan, He Gui, Yan Yuan, and others led their troops to defeat the rebel army in Dulongling. Li Fozi was afraid of the Sui army, so he led his army to surrender, and was finally tied up to Daxing at that time, which is now Chang'an. Li Fozi and many generals were all beheaded.
"Although the King of Jiaozhou said that, the current situation is incomparable."
Just when everyone was in a dilemma, a square-faced man stood up from his seat and analyzed loudly: "The father of the King of Jiaozhou, who surrendered to the Sui army in the past, would naturally end up with a different body and head. However, Tan's Cangwuzhou was closest to the Tang Dynasty, and he knew that the emperors of the Tang Dynasty were kind and righteous. After the country including Tuyuhun, Boliao, Longquan and other countries surrendered, they all received good treatment. As Song Que, the land of Nanyue was poor, and the people were also arrogant and ignorant. Since this is the case, we might as well surrender to the Tang Dynasty and seek a rich life."
"King Cangwu said it well. Let's surrender."
"That's right. I'd better surrender, otherwise I would have lived this life with fear and trembling, and it would be too boring!"
"Yes, the city gates are surrendered."
The fifteen families whose families were captured by Song Que were all shouting to surrender to Song Que. The other eleven, except for the Jiaozhou King Li Daiquan, who was expressionless, four or five of the other ten families also showed signs of inspiration.
Life in Nanyue was really bad. They proclaimed themselves as kings at the beginning and were full of energy. But after a long time, they realized that being kings was useless. They could not live a luxurious and extremely desireful life like the Han people. At most, they would give orders, but unfortunately they were useless. Wars did not often occur in Nanyue, and giving orders was just to steal the prefectures and counties around the Han people, and they also had to worry about when the Han people would send troops to encircle and suppress them.
"Do you agree to surrender?"
Li Daiquan did not express his opinion, but instead looked at the eleven family forces that were not captured in the family, and asked about their opinions.
Five of the eleven people stood up and agreed to surrender, while the other six people who did not come out expressed their disagreement with surrender. Now it is also clear. Twenty-six forces, nineteen forces, agreed to surrender, and seven forces did not agree to surrender, so the conclusion is very obvious.
"Smack!"
Just as everyone was about to make a decision, Li Daiquan suddenly applauded and everyone was confused. What was going on? However, what happened next moment made them understand what was going on.
"Ka, da, da!"
A burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the mansion, and then a group of soldiers surrounded the entire hall with spears.
"King of Jiaozhou, what do you mean?"
Aizhou Togata pointed at Li Daiquan with his right hand and said angrily. The leaders of the other eighteen family forces also glared at Li Daiquan. They are not fools, and Li Daiquan's actions are already clear. Moreover, looking at his appearance, he seems to have prepared for it.
"Li didn't want to do this, but in order not to let everyone go the wrong way, Li had to do this. Don't worry, once the Han army is repelled, Li will release everyone to reunite with his family."
Li Daiquan's expression remained unchanged, and he comforted everyone slowly with a calm expression.
"Li Daiquan, if you are the one who is killed by our family, I will not let you go."
"Li Daiquan, do you think we can't see that the Han army is strong and you will be able to resist the Han army and the countries in South Vietnam are not at peace."
"Do you think Li Daiquan will let you go? Our fate today is the fate of your future."
The leaders of the nineteen families shouted and scolded Li Daiquan, but Li Daiquan seemed to not care at all. He waited for more than a dozen people to scold him and asked the soldiers to take them down.
"Don't worry, Mr. Li and others advance and retreat together. When we defeat the Han army, we will be our kings."
Li Daiquan's appearance was polite, which made the six people who were originally uneasy feel a little relieved. When Li Daiquan's soldiers appeared just now, they were also very scared, but Li Daiquan did not touch them, which made the six people feel a little relieved. However, as some people said, there is no doubt that Li Daiquan has the ambition to unify Nanyue. In this way, Li Daiquan will definitely not let them go easily. As long as they are in Jiaozhou, they are still unsafe.
"We will naturally feel at ease with the character of the King of Jiaozhou!"
"Don't worry, the king of Jiaozhou, we will definitely fight to the death to resist the Han army. How can we let them get involved in the land of Nanyue?"
"In this way, Li thanks you all. It's getting late now. You can go and rest quickly. I don't know when the Han army will attack the city." Li Daiquan sent the six people away with a smile. When the six people's figures completely disappeared in his eyes, Li Daiquan's face immediately became cold and he said disdainfully: "If it weren't for the help of you wasteful people to resist the Han army, what's the use of you? When the Han army retreats, your mission will be over, hum!"
Li Daiquan, like his son Li Fozi, was both ambitious and wanted to unify the land of Nanyue.
However, Li Fozi was afraid of the surrender of the Sui army to the Sui army and ended up with a different head. However, Li Daiquan was not so honest. Then Song Que attacked Nanyue this time, and Li Daiquan united the forces of the South Vietnam. Originally, he planned to wait until the Han army retreated, he would seize the leaders of these forces and force them to hand over the troops. As a result, Song Que made a fuss and captured all the family members of these forces, making them all surrender. In this case, Li Daiquan had to advance his actions.
At night, in the prison of Jiaozhou City, nineteen leaders of the forces of various countries were divided into two prison cells, and each looked upset. Now they were arrested by Li Daiquan, and I don’t know how Li Daiquan would treat them; secondly, their family was still in the hands of the Han army. Now they have no chance to surrender. Thinking about the fate of those family members, these leaders were all frowning with their faces of death, with their parents dead.
“Cruff!”
A strange sound suddenly sounded inside the silent boss, which scared everyone. But they quickly realized that it was not the sound of opening the door. Suddenly, they all stretched out their necks to see who appeared in the prison.
"King of Aizhou, King of Jizhou, how are you?"
Before coming to the prison door with light steps, the visitor whispered to the name of the person in the darkness.
"Hmph!" Aizhou King Tota snorted coldly, turned his head and said mockingly: "Isn't this the King of Tezhou King Taimeng? You didn't follow Li Daiquan to enjoy wealth and honor, why did you come to the prison again? Could it be to come to see our joke! Then you made the wrong plan. Although I, Tota, are not a hero, aren't a person who is greedy for life and fear of death."
"That's it, that's it!"
"Tai Meng, you flattering person, have the face to appear in front of us, hurry up and go back to Li Daiquan."
"Tai Meng, don't be proud. Even if you die, hundreds of people from the Rao family will be pestering you as ghosts."
After being ridiculed and scolded by everyone, the face of Texas Wang Taimeng did not change much. He still whispered: "Tota, Tandan, you two are my relatives. Don't you know what kind of person I, Taimeng? Will I still harm my own children? I had already seen something wrong with Li Daiquan before, so he pretended to rely on him, making him think I was facing him. Later, Li Daiquan saw that he had a digging picture and was indeed ready to take the lead. If I had not attached to him before, I would have had the opportunity to talk to you here at this moment, wouldn't he be caught by him like you?"
"oh!"
Tota's eyes lit up, and the other eighteen people also showed joy. It seemed that they had other meanings when they heard Taimeng's words. Now they were all locked in prison and could do nothing. How could they bear it if they once claimed to be kings? Moreover, Song Que still had hundreds of family kids waiting for them to rescue him. If Taimeng really pretended to rely on Li Daiquan, they would be saved.
"Taimeng's in-laws, it seems that Tota has wronged you, I'm apologizing to you here." After Tota humbly apologized to Taimeng, he asked in a low voice: "Taimeng's in-laws, now that you are here, is there any way to save us?"
"If the King of Tezhou saves me, I will be grateful. You Tezhou is the benefactor of our eleven states!"
"Yes, yes, yes! If the King of Tezhou has any requirements, we will do our best to cooperate."
"After going out, I will definitely kill Li Daiquan, and he dares to treat us like this."
Tai Meng asked the two prisoners to gather together as much as possible, and then he whispered: "Li Daiquan, that guy, who went to the city gate tomorrow morning to shout with Song Que. At that time, I will take this opportunity to lead the personal guards to save you, and then summon their respective soldiers to destroy Li Daiquan and the other five forces. At that time, use Li Daiquan and their heads as credit for surrendering to the Han army, and our treatment will definitely be much better."
"Tai Meng's in-laws has a good idea. After we go out, you will be a great achievement in Tai Meng's in-laws."
"The King of Tezhou's plan is great, so we will follow this plan!"
"This time, they must let their Li family die without a burial place, and they actually treated us with such means."
“Cruff!”
While everyone was discussing the abnormality, the sound of the prison door opening sounded again, and the sound of opening the door was louder than that of Taimeng's previous sound. The door did not close after it opened, and then the faint moonlight, everyone was shocked when they saw the visitor. After Taimeng saw the visitor, his face looked even more ugly.
"Everyone was very happy to talk, why don't you continue?"
The visitor walked towards the cell here step by step, and the clear sound of footsteps came into everyone's ears like a death talisman, which touched their heartbeat every time.
The person who came was not someone else, but Li Daiquan, the King of Jiaozhou.
"Why did you appear here, King Jiaozhou? Haven't you already gone to bed?" Tai Meng kept trembling, even talking. Then he seemed to react and said loudly: "You are here just right, King Jiaozhou. Now I have discussed with the kings. All the kings think that they should resist the Han army. Those small sacrifices were sacrificed for the people of South Vietnam. The people of South Vietnam will remember their good deeds."
"Yes. Yes, yes! King of Jiaozhou, we have decided to resist the Han army with you and will never compromise!"
"King of Jiaozhou. We want the Han army to know that Nanyue is not a place they can get involved."
"That's right. I'll wait for a 300,000 army, but Song Que is only 300,000 army. Even if each of my 300,000 army is enough to subdue them. You said, "Your Majesty, hahaha..."
The leader who made the laughter became less and less, and he knew that he had completely calmed down. Because they saw Li Daiquan just staring at them coldly without saying a word.
"Continue, why don't you continue? Your proposals are pretty good. I think it's very feasible!" Li Daiquan's eyes swept through everyone in the cell one by one, and finally fell to Tai Meng, who was standing outside. The corner of his mouth curled up and asked sarcastically: "Are you really curious that I should be resting at this moment, why did you appear here?"
Wang Tai, Tezhou's pupils shrank, and his brain suddenly exploded. He widened his eyes and looked at Li Daiquan.
"You mean you didn't go to rest at all, and the reason you said that was pretending."
"Haha, you're a little smart!" Li Daiquan said with a smile, and his words of praise sounded like mocking. "If I don't give you a chance, why would you, mice, come out again? Without my instructions, do you think the guards of the prison would let you in so easily? Don't you know that Jiaozhou is the territory of this king. Without my permission, do those two guards have the courage to let you in?"
"It turns out that all this was designed by you. You are so despicable!"
Taimeng found that his every move was under someone's calculations and was furious.
"Haha, if you don't have any bad thoughts, how could you fall into my trap?" Li Daiquan didn't care about Tai Meng's insults at all, but said disdainfully. "Don't worry, I have sent them to reincarnate the two guards at the door. I hope they will not be your guards again in the next life, otherwise they will lose their lives in vain."
"Ah, I'll fight you!"
Tai Meng was furious and rushed towards Li Daiquan with a roar.
"puff!"
However, before Taimeng's hand touched Li Daiquan, his body seemed to be blocked by something, and he could not make any progress. Then he vomited blood. Taimeng lowered his head with difficulty. A sharp sword passed through his chest at some point, and the blood was hitting the ground drop by drop along the blade.
"You, you..."
Tai Meng, you had been saying nothing, but you just hit the ground with your head open. The two eyes were staring at the boss. In the dark place of the prison, the nineteen leaders looked at it and suddenly felt cold all over.
"I betrayed me and never repent, bah!" Li Daiquan spitted at Taimeng's body, then looked at the nineteen leaders in the two cells with a smile, and said lightly: "I want you to resist the Han army together and share the glory and wealth, but you don't know what I want to do, and you even want to join forces with such a traitor to murder me. Now that you have also seen the consequences of the traitor, what do you think?"
"Li Daiquan, if you hadn't imprisoned us here, why should I do this? You..."
Before a leader could finish his words, he saw a cold light coming from the corner of his eyes. After he could not dodge, the sharp sword immediately passed through his chest. The leader opened his eyes wide and glared at Li Daiquan. He really didn't expect that Li Daiquan would take action without saying a word. If he knew, he wouldn't have said that.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world, and this leader lost his life in vain.
Li Daiquan took back his sword, took out a white silk and wiped it slowly, and said dissatisfiedly: "I have said that this is for all the kings. King Yu Lin still said this, wouldn't it make me feel disappointed? The kings think it's right?"
"The King of Jiaozhou is very dedicated to us, but King Yulin is ungrateful, but he is still alive!"
"What King Hepu said is very true. We should understand the painstaking efforts of the King of Jiaozhou!"
"With the King of Jiaozhou leading us, it is a blessing for the people of Nanyue."
Li Daiquan killed Tezhou Wang Taimeng and Yulin Wang Tandao without frowning. They were afraid that they would become the next one, so they could only agree with Li Daiquan against their conscience.
"It is enough for you to understand my hard work, but now that the Han army is away, it is unnecessary to say too many things. Do you think so?"
The leaders present were all figures who could claim to be kings, and they were not bad at heart. They gradually heard some clues from Li Daiquan's words.
"What the King of Jiaozhou said was very true. The Han army treated us as if nothing was possible. We should strike head-on!"
"The King of Aizhou said it well. If the King of Jiaozhou has any instructions, I will cooperate with you!"
"It is really a blessing for all the people of Nanyue to have such good kings." Li Daiquan showed a smile on his face and said lightly: "It is enough to cooperate with me tomorrow. After the Han army retreats, Nanyue will still be the world of me and all the kings!"
