Dajin royal family

Chapter 619

The sound of the teacup shattering was not too loud, and all the guards outside heard it, and the next moment they rushed in, thinking that something happened inside the tent.

"My lord, you."

The personal guard found that there were only Zhao Wang and his son in the tent, and looked at the broken teacup on the desk.

"Kings!"

The crumbs of the teacup plunged into Jiang Chengxiao's palm, and a trace of dark red blood flowed out.

"It's okay, you all go out. Gu is talking to Heng'er, don't let anyone come in to disturb you."

Jiang Chengxiao drove out all the guards with a calm expression.

"Daddy." Jiang Heng's face was full of worry.

Jiang Chengxiao took out a brocade handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the blood, and said, "Have you seen this, if you forcefully break the teacup, something like this will happen."

Hearing this, Jiang Heng was slightly taken aback.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chengxiao explained: "The current Luoyang City is like a teacup, and we just want to break the fist of the teacup. If we attack forcibly, we can open it naturally, but we will also be injured. Is it worth it?"

Jiang Heng was silent, he seemed to understand a little bit.

"The teacup is in our hands. We can use other methods to make it open by itself. There is no need to open it at the cost of self-injury. It's not worth it." Jiang Chengxiao wiped his palms and found that only a few small crumbs scratched the place. A little wound, it doesn't matter.

After Jiang Heng thought deeply, he said, "Daddy means that there are other ways to open tea without being injured. Break through Luoyang?"

"Ah."

"How?" he asked.

Jiang Chengxiao's face turned serious, and he said, "The strongest castles often collapse from the inside. The Luoyang rebels have no reinforcements outside and no food and grass inside. In a few days, they will collapse without attacking themselves."

Although he knew that Jiang Heng might not understand, but he didn't mind teaching him all the time.It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you can give him insight and instill little knowledge.

Well, with a little knowledge every day, children will become smarter and smarter.

Jiang Heng looked at his father blankly, he really couldn't understand these words.As a child who has just started learning, it is indeed too reluctant to suddenly come into contact with these military strategies.However, these words left a deep impression on his heart.

The sun rose and the moon set, and on the tenth day of the siege by the Northern Jin army, Xu Guogong organized 22 breakout plans, each of which ended in failure.Every time, they would be massacred by the Northern Jin army outside the city, and fled back to the city in embarrassment.

The catapults that never go out day and night brought painful torture to the soldiers in Luoyang, and the roaring sound in their ears never stopped. die.

After repeated failures to break through and no external reinforcements, Yu Wenshu's envoy Xu Yixin was ordered to arrive at the camp of the Jin army.

His purpose is very simple, peace talks.

It's just that Xu Yixin himself scoffed at these two words. He felt that Yu Wenshu was wishful thinking, and he was still wishful thinking in a dream.

As long as Jiang Chengxiao is not a fool, it is absolutely impossible for him to agree to this matter. Now that Xu Guo has reached the edge of the cliff, half of his foot is hanging in the air. If Jiang Chengxiao exerts a little force, Xu Guo will be gone.

Why did he keep Xu Guo?

There are no good soldiers in Luoyang, and no reinforcements outside.

What should I talk to Jiang Chengxiao about?

When Xu Yixin came, he kept thinking in his heart, if Jiang Chengxiao agreed, it meant that Jiang Chengxiao must have lost his mind, or his own ears were broken.

In short, this thing is impossible.

Therefore, he did not hold any hopes and expectations.

Under such circumstances, Xu Yixin met Jiang Chengxiao.

To be honest, this was the first time Xu Yixin saw what Jiang Chengxiao looked like.After looking up and down, Xu Yixin said with emotion: "It really is a dragon and a phoenix."

These words made Jiang Chengxiao stunned, "Is your attitude here for peace talks?"

If so, then Yu Wenshu's self-defeating behavior is too obvious.This guy named Xu Yixin is obviously here to make soy sauce. How can he have the leisure to praise the enemy when his own master is facing a life-and-death situation.

"You and I both know that Jin and Xu can only survive as one. Now that Xu is on the verge of death, will His Royal Highness King Zhao agree to peace talks?" Under Xu Yixin's calm tone was a heartbroken heartbroken from despair.

He didn't have any hope at all, and he didn't think that Jiang Chengxiao would agree.

Because he himself feels ridiculous.

Jiang Chengxiao smiled, Xu Yixin understood the truth.

"Is that gentleman here to surrender?"

Xu Yixin shook her head, and looked at Jiang Chengxiao, "The minister is here to lead the way for the motherland on Huangquan Road."

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao was silent for a while.

"I didn't expect that Yu Wenshu could be followed like this."

He didn't expect that at this time, there are still people who follow Yu Wenshu wholeheartedly.It seems that Yu Wenshu is not useless.

Xu Yixin smiled casually, as if recalling: "The foreign minister went to school when he was young, and his family had little wealth, so he relied on the help from the village. Zhongzheng failed the election and lived on the streets, if Lord Yuwen hadn't given him a meal, he would have been turned into a handful of loess early."

"As a minister, you should be loyal."

This was Xu Yixin's deepest secret, and when he faced King Zhao, he said it calmly.

If Yu Wenshu hadn't saved his life, how could he have stayed in Xu Guo to wait for his death.With his eyes, how can he fail to see that Xu Guo is a broken ship, Xu Guo without the support of his family can't beat the Northern Jin Dynasty at all.

Even though, he once naively wanted to fight Bei Jin who had the support of his family.

What is the result?

Obviously, both he and Xu Guo failed.

The aristocratic family has too many things they don't have, talents, funds, local fame.

Xu Yixin didn't attribute his loss to a strategic mistake. In fact, the strategic position of the two heroes in Guanzhong wasn't good enough, but he still lost to Jiang Chengxiao.

The reason why they lost was because they lost to the Northern Jin Dynasty from the very beginning.

Their foundation is too weak.

The Northern Jin Dynasty became stronger and stronger, the territory became larger and larger, and the population increased.In contrast, Xu Guo is getting weaker and weaker, its territory is getting smaller and smaller, and its population is getting smaller and smaller.

People's hearts are getting more and more scattered.

However, he still accompanied Yu Wenshu to the end without hesitation.

This is his return to Yu Wenshu for saving his life.

Jiang Chengxiao said indifferently: "It's a pity, the imperial examination system is implemented in the court alone, the selection of the virtuous and the capable, only the talents are selected, and Mr. Xu did not catch up."

Xu Yixin's eyes moved, and a trace of bitterness appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Yeah, he missed it.

When he first heard about the imperial examination, he admired Jiang Chengxiao from the bottom of his heart.It can actually make those aristocratic families bow their heads, abolish Zhongzheng's selection of scholars, and implement the imperial examination system.

Xu Yixin left, walking cleanly.

No one in the Chinese military camp stopped him, because everyone knew what he was going to do.

After a while, a soldier came to report.

"Your Majesty, the envoy of the Xu Kingdom committed suicide."

Jiang Chengxiao narrowed his eyes, and said softly: "Burn it with the rites of a scholar-bureaucrat."

He didn't admire Xu Yixin's loyalty to Yu Wenshu, he just felt sorry for what happened to Xu Yixin.

In fact, Du Ruming's past experience was very similar to Xu Yixin's.The difference between the two is that Du Ruming met him, while Xu Yixin met Yu Wenshu.

This is life.

On the 20th day of the Northern Jin army's siege, Xu Guo seemed to be a beast with the last breath of "violence". They struggled frantically, trying to break through and defeat the Northern Jin army.

However, repeated fiascos told them that this was impossible.

The catapults were bombed day and night for [-] consecutive days, [-]% of the catapults were directly scrapped due to overuse, and [-]% of the catapults were excessively worn out and had to be rested.

After 20 days of uninterrupted bombing, more and more potholes were visible to the naked eye on the head of Luoyang City, and they became denser and denser.

Today is New Year's Eve.

The last day of King Zhao's three years.

Chinese army tent.

"Your Majesty, there are rebels at the north gate who are willing to surrender and open the city gate to welcome the king's division into the city." Yuchi said respectfully.

Wei Zhongxuan said: "Your Majesty, there are rebel generals in Ximen who quietly sent someone to tell the last general that they are willing to open the city gate and surrender."

In this regard, Jiang Chengxiao was not surprised at all.

Luoyang City was completely besieged by him, and Yu Wenshu didn't have enough food to supply the army, let alone hundreds of officials and hundreds of thousands of people in the city.

Being able to persist for more than 20 days is already considered a desperate struggle.

Jiang Chengxiao said: "It seems that Xu Guo's soldiers can't hold on anymore."

The reason why they are soldiers of the three armies is because Yu Wenshu and his son will never surrender, because they know very well that after surrendering, they will face death.

Because, Yu Wenshu personally killed the first emperor.

How could Jiang Chengxiao let him go.

Xie Yingjing clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to be the vanguard and take down Luoyang City for your Majesty!"

"The last will also be willing!"

"The last general is too!"

The generals all opened their mouths to fight.

Everyone is not a fool, Luoyang City can easily be taken, the credit is at your fingertips, whoever wants it is a fool.

Jiang Chengxiao stood up and said slowly: "Four gates attack together, break into Luoyang, and capture the rebels alive!"

After a pause, he smiled and said, "Let's celebrate the New Year in Luoyang City!"

"Yes!"

The generals all cheered and agreed.
