Chapter 630 I'm all done, you haven't finished yet?

In the northern corner of the Liang Kingdom, Fushi County, Yanzhou, known as the key to the Three Qins, looked at the current appearance of the city walls, and it seemed that the city gate had been opened without the fierce war, and it was occupied by the Jin army.

Teams of Jin cavalry went in and out, shuttled back and forth, and a large number of Liang soldiers squatted on the ground, waiting to fall. They were all ragged and dull, as if they were large groups of walking corpses, as if they were no different from the animals to be slaughtered.

Although King Li Cunxu of Jin ordered all armies to surrender for no reason, the deep hatred between each other's first lords, Li Keyong and Zhu Wen, seemed to have been affecting the attitudes of the soldiers in the army of both sides towards each other.

As a feud, the enemy's generals and soldiers have finally fallen into their hands... How could the generals and soldiers of the Jin army treat these Liang troops well with the help of the people who are left to deal with them?

When Xiancheng surrendered, Jin State inspected the surrendered soldiers and stripped away the prisoners of war without saying a word. Then, like driving animals, they scolded and cursed the rows of Liang soldiers and moved elsewhere. One of them was a little slow, and a whip was called over, which also caused screams and howlings in the crowd.

Of course, some violent prisoners of war were unable to bear the insult. However, with a little resistance, the soldiers of Jin soldiers rushed forward and slashed them down with a knife... When the other prisoners of war saw their accomplices lying in a pool of blood, most of the soldiers' numb faces inevitably showed fear and fear, and sadness of the dead rabbit and the sadness of the fox... But no one dared to show any resistance.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves was roaring like thunder, and a team of cavalry rushed out of Fushi County. The smoke and dust were rolled up to rush into the nearby prisoners of war. Li Chengsi, the general of the Jin army who commanded his troops to take over the Yanzhou capital, also caught a glimpse of the dead bodies of Liang army prisoners of war. He quickly turned his head over again, without taking a look at him.

Even though he successfully captured the military ranks that originally belonged to the world enemy Liang State, Li Chengsi was still in a very bad mood because of his impatience. After all, the progress of Jin's annexation of Liang State's territory is far behind that of Li Tianqu's Wei Dynasty... He still has to deal with these Liang army prisoners of war, which is more like a lot of burden in Li Chengsi's eyes. How could he care about the life and death of the Liang army?

After capturing Yanzhou, according to the order of King Jun of Jin, Li Chengsi ordered his subordinates to allocate the personnel to take over the temporary affairs of the counties under his rule as soon as possible, and even after the arrest of prisoners of war in Liang's army, he would rush to the next prefecture without stopping.

The other Jin army were similar, but after a round trip, they were mainly limited to invading states and looting land in the northern corner of Liang State. Until some Liang defenders who fought desperately in the states suddenly lost their fighting intentions, but the generals of Jin army all knew the reasons...

The Wei army attacked Chang'an, the Liang State was destroyed, and most of the remaining troops and horses guarding various places would not resist in vain. However, this means that the Wei Dynasty was ultimately the biggest beneficiary of the battle to destroy the country.

In the southern corner of Tongzhou, in the Jin army camp, Li Cunxu was anxious all these days, and he didn't have to be ordinary, and of course he couldn't be cheerful, and his face became increasingly ugly every day. Now, especially after hearing that Wei sent surprise troops to attack Chang'an, Li Cunxu's face was even covered with a layer of evil spirit.

Before the army crossed the Yellow River south, they gathered their forces to fight to Chang'an, so they let Li Tianqu get ahead... The more Li Cunxu thought about it, the more angry he became, but he still tried to keep calm. After a while, he exhaled a long breath of turbid air and said with hatred:

"After Qin's fall, Han and Chu's fight for hegemony, the defeated King Xiang Yu of the Western Chu; after Han's fall, the Three Kingdoms returned to Jin, Wei, Shu, and Wu, and eventually failed to complete the great cause of unification; Jin's fall, the north and south dynasties, and the Sui defeated Southern Chen and became the Zhengshuo Dynasty; and at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the heroes competed for the Lu, and Li Tang wiped out Wang Shichong, Du Fuwei, Li Mi, Dou Jiande, Liu Wuzhou, Xiao Xian... and other heroes continued their orthodox...

The Liang thieves usurped the Tang court and were divided into various vassals... Even if our Jin State dominates the country, the great hatred of the world has been destroyed... But the Wei State who destroyed the Liang thieves' pseudo-dynasty was the Wei State; and the Wei State who is now the most powerful country is still Li Tianqu's Wei Dynasty.

Competing for hegemony is like sailing against the current, and if you don’t advance, you will retreat. The stronger the strong, the weaker the weaker. If you are in a corner, you will sooner or later be annexed by a strong country... Not only for the will of your father, but with your lonely ambition, how can you be willing to be a loser?"

In the big tent, there were also a few confidants around Li Cunxu who went to the military for discussion. Among them, Guo Chongtao's face was also full of gloom. He originally advised the plan not to inform the Wei Dynasty to send troops first, gathering military forces to destroy it in one fell swoop, and turmoil after usurping the throne. Now, because there are treacherous slanders in the court, the strength of the world's enemies Liang Kingdom is increasingly declining... Although the plan is a good plan, the plan does not change quickly, and Li Tianqu still has the opportunity to seize it.

As a result, it seemed that the military brigades of Jin State helped the Wei Dynasty to restrain some of the Liang army. They went on a big battle to fight, and in the end they were making wedding clothes for others... Guo Chongtao, who was originally a little narrow-minded, had only a lot more depressed resentment in his heart than his lord Li Cunxu.

However, Guo Chongtao was also a quick-witted and clever adviser. He was in vain and could not change the facts that had happened. He then kept his rational thinking and advised Li Cunxu:

"Don't be upset. Since the Wei army has captured Chang'an, Jingzhao, Bining, Fengxiang and other places in Guanzhong will eventually fall into the control of the Emperor of Wei... Now our army is not suitable to break up with it too early. Only now, we must attack the rest of the prefectures in northern Shaanxi as soon as possible.

The situation in Longyou, Hexi, and even the states such as Xia, Yin, Ling, Wu, etc. is even more complicated. Now it is time to send envoys to Liangzhou at the end of Xia, and Dangxiang, Ganzhou Uighurs, and Shuofang Han family showed their favor. Even if Wei State takes Lan, He and other military states west, if our Jin State can unite the forces in the northwest and let Wei State worry about the west, in the future, the Wei people will be able to move their whole body, and they will lose sight of the other, and will fight for the king to take advantage of the situation to sweep Heshuo and point the sword to the Central Plains."

"It's easy to say it, but it's hard to do it... In the late Xia Dynasty, Dangxiang, Uighurs, Han Xun, who guarded the Shuofang army, and even the Tubo Liugu tribes in the southwest corner of the Hebei region... not only dominate themselves and hold on to each other, but they are also very powerful in Wei and Jin, and dominate the Central Plains, even if it's just for the moment...

What's more, Emperor Wei has destroyed the Liang thief pseudo-dynasty, which is a pity that Gu failed to fulfill his father's will, and the forces in the northwest are more inclined to surrender to the State of Wei. Unless Emperor Wei is eager to win over Shu and is eager to annex Hexi and other places, in order to protect himself, the forces in the northwest will give us the opportunity to take advantage of Jin... But in Gu's view, with the talent of Emperor Wei, he should not make a mistake in this move..."

Li Cunxu sighed, but he knew that what should be won should be won over. It was precisely because the forces in the northwest were more likely to turn to Wei, so they needed to make arrangements in advance. Moreover, in the future, the Jin State would first be geographically close to the territory governed by the Dingnan Army and the Shuofang Army, the two vassal states, were more geographically close, so it was possible to win their support.

Whether it is military strategy or diplomatic skills, the competition between Gu and Emperor Wei will continue...

After Li Cunxu thought about it in his heart, he immediately shouted loudly:

"So quickly pass Li Yan to see the orphan!"

Before too long, the civil servant named Li Yan entered the tent. He was originally a native of Youzhou, and initially served as a Lu Long army Liu Rengong. After Jie Yan fell, he also returned to Jin as a surrendered minister. Now he serves as the chief officer under Li Cunxu to receive all parties' plans and the position of guest provincial envoys who are foreign tribes.

Li Tianqu also knew that Li Yan was the person. According to historical records, he was "smart and skilled, skilled, skilled, and well-known in riding and shooting, and was very knowledgeable in calligraphy and debated"... He was also a counselor who was good at diplomacy during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. If he followed the official line of history, Li Yan had been on a mission to Former Shu and had debated with the powerful official Song Guangsi. When the ministers of Shu saw him answering in a slight manner and had outstanding eloquence, they couldn't help but feel respectful. Then it was Li Yan who realized that since Wang Jian passed away, the king and his ministers in Shu had become more and more foolish, and advised Li Cunxu to raise troops to launch a battle to destroy the country...

Now Li Cunxu looked at Li Yan coldly and said in a deep voice:
