Chapter 2502 Li Mu and Yang Jian surrender to Qin
Chapter 2498: Li Mu Yang Jian surrendered to Qin
squeak……

The whole body is made of fine steel, and the large iron gate weighing a thousand catties was slowly pushed open with the joint efforts of dozens of soldiers.

The door was only opened a crack, and there were various kinds of lights, such as bright yellow and bright colors, shining from the inside of the Treasury, making many people unable to open their eyes.

Soon, the gates were all opened wide, and what caught the eye was a large number of gold bricks and silver bricks, piled up as high as a hill.

There are as many as ten silver brick mountains, and there are fewer golden brick mountains, only two.

In addition, there are a large number of statues of golden dragons, golden Buddhas, and silver horses made of pure gold and silver, and there are nearly a hundred carts of antiques, jade, coral, agate, calligraphy and paintings, etc.

As for the copper coins, they were placed in other warehouses, and several warehouses were fully installed, with a rough estimate of billions.

"hiss……"

After seeing this scene, everyone gasped one after another, and many people even showed a hint of greed in their eyes, but they didn't dare to make the slightest change.

The laws of Daqin were strict, and all property seized in the war, except for some that could be sufficient for military supplies, the rest must be turned over to the state treasury.

This is the iron law, and those who dare to violate it are guilty of treason.

"My dear, how much is this? I'm afraid the treasury of Daqin doesn't have so much wealth, right?" Jia Fu couldn't help but said to himself.

Ban Chao nodded. The military generals didn't know the wealth in the Qin treasury, but as a civil servant, he still knew a thing or two.

The treasury of Daqin did not have so much money. Although Daqin earned a lot of money every year, it also spent a lot of money on major domestic projects, as well as raising the army and official salaries.

This has already come in. The money that can be kept in the treasury of the Great Qin State is still an astronomical figure for all countries, but it is not as much as the wealth accumulated by the Kanto Kansai family for a hundred years.

Of course, for Great Qin, the greatest value of wealth is not kept in the treasury, but spent.

Ban Chao didn't know the specific value of the wealth, after all, even Li Shimin hadn't finished counting the wealth.

If you want to know how much this is worth compared to wealth, it is impossible to complete the inventory in four or five days.

"Li Shimin slaughtered the Chang'an family, and Dao has done a good deed. Such a big wealth is cheap for me, Daqin." Ban Chao said with a smile.

Wang Jian also nodded in agreement. After all, the amount compared to Hengfu is really too large, second only to the amount of wealth in the Tiangong Treasure obtained before.

With this money, Daqin can save even military expenses in his next campaign in the Central Plains.

This time the credit is too great.

After briefly looking at the treasury, Wang Jian ordered the treasury to be sealed, waiting for the people from the court to take it in. Then he sent Gongsun Xuanyuan and Jia Fu to lead cavalry out of the city to hunt down the remnants of the Tang army who had escaped from Chang'an.

The previous group of pursuers had returned, but except for Li Jue, the rest of them failed in vain, and only Li Jue captured Yin Kaishan and returned alive.

It was naturally not enough to catch only one Yin Kaishan, so Wang Jian sent a second batch of search troops, tens of thousands of troops, to search and arrest in a carpet-like manner, intending to wipe out all the escaped Li Tang remnants.

Seeing Yin Kaishan covered in scars, Ban Chao went up to meet him, and said with a faint smile, "General Yin, we meet again."

When he was imprisoned in the sky prison, Yin Kaishan was in charge of escorting him, and now he is still well, but the other party has become a prisoner.

Yin Kaishan said very stubbornly: "If you want to kill or cut, it's up to you."

"Why bother? You should also understand that the reason why Li Tang can exist is all because of Li Shimin. Now that even Li Shimin is dead, Li Tang's death will only happen overnight. Do you still want to die for Li Tang?" Ban Chao said.

"What? The lord is dead? It's impossible, it's absolutely impossible."

Yin Kaishan's face was full of disbelief, he couldn't believe the news was true.

Ban Chao shrugged. If Li Shimin's body hadn't been sent to Ba Ling to persuade the defenders to surrender, he would have allowed Yin Kaishan to see Li Shimin's body.

Seeing Yin Kaishan's life-and-death disbelief, Ban Chao also knew it was useless to say anything, so he waved his hand and ordered him to be detained and put under strict supervision.

"Report... Your Excellency, there is an accident in the Yang residence."

Hearing this, Ban Chao asked quickly: "What accident?"

"Old Lieutenant Yang Biao hanged himself."

"what?"

Ban Chao was shocked, and rushed to Yang's mansion, but when he arrived, he found that Wang Jian and Li Cunxiao had already arrived one step ahead of him.

Ban Chao squeezed into the onlookers, and saw Yang Biao's body hanging on the beam, and a child knelt in front of Yang Biao's body, his eyes were red, but he tried not to cry.

"Who is this child?" Ban Chao asked.

"The only two survivors of the Yang family, one is Yang Jian's younger sister, Yang Chan, and the other is him, Yang Jian's nephew, Yang Chenxiang.

Speaking of which, this child is really pitiful. He was originally from a famous family, but overnight, his whole family was robbed. He witnessed the tragic death of his biological father, his mother was seriously injured and dying, and now his only grandfather also committed suicide.

If ordinary people were to suffer such a catastrophe, they would have collapsed long ago, but this child did not have it, which is rare. "Wang Jian sighed lightly.

When Ban Chao heard this, he felt a little guilty for no reason.

Although the tragic extermination of the Yang family this time was planned by Li Si, it had nothing to do with him, and now that Li Si has been killed, it stands to reason that this matter should be understood here, but after all, he is the only one left who knows the truth people.

"Yang Jian fought bloody battles on the front line, but was wiped out by his own people. I really don't know how Yang Jian would feel after knowing the news." Li Cunxiao sneered.

Originally, because of Li Shimin's daring before his death, he changed his opinion of Li Shimin, but after learning that the Yang family was destroyed by Li Tang, he just felt so stupid that he would sympathize with Li Shimin, a lunatic.

He shouldn't have stopped back then, and given Li Shimin a chance to commit suicide, he should have killed him mercilessly.Li Cunxiao thought angrily in his heart.

Looking at Yang Biao's body which had been removed from the beam, Ban Chao sighed lightly: "Old Captain, why are you doing this?"

There are two reasons why Yang Biao can't think about committing suicide:
Firstly, it was because he tried to help Li Tang, not Sui Yang, that finally caused the Yang family to be wiped out by Li Tang, which made him no longer have the face to live.

The second is because of his status as an imperial party and has always been an enemy of Daqin. If he is still alive, even if Daqin doesn't pursue him, it will definitely not be a good thing for Yang Jian, Yang Chan, and Chen Xiang.

Yang Biao is an old bone, and he has not lived for a few years. For the last incense and continuation of the Yang family, it is completely worthwhile to exchange his life.

Just when everyone was talking about Yang Biao's death, little Chenxiang stood up, walked in front of Wang Jian and said, "I can help Da Qin persuade my uncle Yang Jian to surrender."

Hearing this, Wang Jian, Ban Chao, and Li Cunxiao were all stunned.

Li Cunxiao patted Chen Xiang's head, said with a smile: "Child, you are still young, and adults' affairs are not something you can participate in."

"That's right, your mother has woken up, you should go and spend more time with your mother," Ban Chao said.

"No, I'm going. Uncle loves me the most. He will definitely believe my words. If he knows what Li Shimin has done, he will definitely turn his back on the dark."

Looking at Chen Xiang with a stubborn face, Li Cunxiao and Ban Chao shook their heads, thinking that the child was a little too sad.

After Wang Jian pondered for a while, he nodded and said: "Well, since you insist, then I will fulfill you, but the ugly words are up front, and you can't blame others if you die on the battlefield."

"Thank you, General."

Wang Jian sent dozens of riders to escort Chen Xiang to Baling, and halfway caught up with Li Maozhen who was escorting Li Shimin's body.

After a whole day's journey, Li Maozhen arrived at the Baling camp with the exhausted little Chenxiang, and met Li Jing, the commander of the Qin Army, as well as Wu Qi, Sun Lingming and other generals.

At this time, the Baling camp had completely changed.

Due to the arrival of 13 troops from Sizhou, the Qin army now has a full 10,000 troops in Baling, so naturally a larger barracks can be built that can accommodate [-]+ troops.

Before Li Jing arrived, Wu Qi had been attacking Ba Ling fiercely, but Li Mu's defense did not have the slightest flaw. The Qin army lost three major armies, 1 surrendered troops, and a total of nearly [-] troops, but still failed to break through Ba Ling. Mausoleum City.

Seeing that the casualties were too great, Wu Qi didn't dare to attack blindly, and waited for Li Jing's main force to arrive before making plans.

What Wu Qi didn't know was that his attack was not useless. Li Mu in the city was almost out of ammunition and food. If he persisted for three days, he would definitely break the city, but he voluntarily gave up, which gave Li Mu a chance to breathe .

Of course, Wu Qi was well aware of this, but if the casualties were too great, even if he captured Ba Ling, he would have failed, so it's better to leave it to Li Jing to solve it.

Wu Qi, who has been invincible since his debut, now encounters a setback for the first time in Baling City, and meets Li Mu who can't defend, even the military master Yasheng is powerless.

When Li Jing led his army to Baling, he received the news that Li Cunxiao's Banchao had broken through Chang'an, and he only paid the price of [-] cavalry.

Li Jing never expected that this attack on Guanzhong would be so smooth.

The main army of [-] has not participated in the battle yet, and they occupied and captured Chang'an City only by relying on the Six Route Division.

Is this because Qin Jun is too good at fighting?Or did he overestimate Li Tang?
Although Li Jing didn't have much sense of participation in this Guanzhong battle from the beginning to the end, he planned the overall strategic plan, and he also arranged the spies in Chang'an City in advance, so even if he was offline throughout, the greatest credit for this battle is also It's still his.

Li Jing looked down at Li Maozhen and Chen Xiang, and after a little thought, he sent a civil servant to bring little Chen Xiang into the Baling Mausoleum to persuade Li Mu and Yang Jian to surrender. The army persuaded to surrender.

Although there is Li Shimin's body in Daqin, there are many means of disguise in the Jianghu. It is impossible to prove that this is true, but it can also make the defenders in the city suspicious. The real way to destroy their morale and display is to rely on Li Maozhen and little Chenxiang.

Li Maozhen belonged to Li Tang's clan, he had already descended to Qin Dynasty, and he appeared in Baling, so something must have happened in Chang'an, not to mention Yang Jian's nephew also came with him.

After two hours of persuasion, the gates of Baling suddenly opened wide, and Li Mu took Yang Jian, Li Zuoche, Wuji, Yang Ren, Lei Zhenzi and others out of the city to ask the Qin army to surrender.

Not to mention that Ba Ling City was almost unable to hold on.

After learning what happened in Chang'an from Chen Xiang, all Tang generals in Baling were in an uproar.

No one could have imagined that the lord Li Shimin would be so crazy that he would wipe out all the aristocratic families in Chang'an City, including the Hongnong Yang family.

Although Wu Qi had said this before, the generals in the city didn't believe it at all, thinking that the Qin army was lying to them and trying to force them to surrender.

But it is impossible for Li Maozhen and Chen Xiang to lie. Since they also said so, it is possible that this matter is true, and Li Shimin is really dead, and Chang'an was also occupied by the Qin army.

The amount of information that Chen Xiang brought was too great, and each of the evil words of the generals and generals of Baling was like a bolt from the blue.

Now that Chang'an has fallen, even Li Shimin died in battle, Ba Ling has been reduced to an isolated city, and under a series of big thunderbolts, the people inside Ba Ling are in chaos. downright.

Ba Ling's ability to persevere until now relies on unity. Now that people are confused, it is naturally impossible to continue to defend. There is no other way to go except to surrender.

After a night of contemplation, Li Mu summoned all the generals in the city to vote on whether to surrender, and the results were unanimously approved, so he opened the city and surrendered to Li Jing.

"The last general, Li Mu, led the [-] defenders of Baling to surrender to Li Jing."

Li Mu shouted and presented the seal of the roster to Li Jing.

With 8000 defenders, he arrived in Wuqi with an army of [-]. After half a month, there are only [-] left.

After Li Jing finally sealed the seal, he helped Li Mu up, and said with relief: "The general abandons the dark and turns to the bright, it is really the blessing of the generals and the common people."

"Yang Jian."

When Sun Lingming saw Yang Jian, he immediately yelled and approached with a smile, but Yang Jian didn't have the heart to greet him. What he wanted to do most now was to go back to Chang'an to see his seriously injured sister Yang Chan.
