The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Chapter 142 The general trend of the world belongs to Li Chengdao!

When Li Chengdao asked them to kneel down, his meaning was very simple, that is, to let them choose to surrender or refuse to surrender.

Changsun Wuji was the most decisive and chose to surrender immediately. After hesitation, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui also saluted Li Chengdao to express their surrender.

Because if they do not surrender, the family forces behind them will undoubtedly be purged.

Li Chengdao would generously pardon those soldiers and even generals, but after seizing power this time, a group of forces on Li Shimin's side would inevitably be wiped out. This was not a matter of whether he thought about it or not, but what he had to do to establish his authority.

If someone is ignorant at this time, he will definitely suffer.

Changsun Shunde was originally very hostile to Li Chengdao, but when Li Chengdao said plainly, "The Changsun family has been temporarily saved," his face suddenly turned pale and he no longer dared to make any mistakes.

Because he realized that Li Chengdao now holds the power of life and death!
With a military power of 30, and a strong return to Chang'an, no one can stop him at this time. Even though their eldest grandson family is a powerful family with deep connections, survival or death is still a matter of Li Chengdao's word!

Changsun Wuji saw this very clearly, so he chose to surrender without hesitation.

"Very good. Now the Tang Dynasty still has foreign enemies to deal with. You are all capable people of the Tang Dynasty. I don't want to tear down the pillars of the Tang Dynasty."

"Let's make it clear. Gu Bi killed Li Shimin, so I don't expect you to be loyal to Gu. Gu only has one request for you, and that is to make Datang rich and powerful."

"As long as you serve the Tang Dynasty honestly, no matter whether it is glory or wealth or a name in history, you will not be missing, and your family can continue to prosper, understand?"

Li Chengdao didn't mince words at all, he spoke simply and straightforwardly.

Such straightforward words made Changsun Wuji and others stunned, and then they nodded with complicated expressions.

Changsun Wuji hesitated again and again, but couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, may I ask, what do you... plan to do with King Qin's wife, family, and heirs?"

Changsun Wuji surrendered to Li Chengdao for the sake of his family. For the children of these big families, these two words are like being engraved in their souls.

Even though in some families, there will inevitably be some troubles between brothers and uncles, when the whole family faces a crisis, I believe that all clan members will risk everything for the family.

What is family?
From the perspective of blood and inheritance, the family explains where they come from, what kind of heroes have appeared in their ancestors, and what great things they have done in this world. These are all a sense of belonging and honor that are engraved in the heart. feel.

Perhaps civilians cannot understand the meaning, because most of them only remember three generations of their ancestors, and all they care about is whether they and their families can have enough food and clothing. In the eyes of people from big families, these people are just common people at best, and they can't even look at them seriously. They have no qualifications, they are always based on the family unit.

One glory and one glory.

Therefore, no matter how good the relationship between Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin is, he will still choose to join Li Chengdao for the sake of the family without hesitation after Li Shimin's death.

However, out of the long-standing relationship between emperor and minister with Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji couldn't help but ask this question, although he knew that his question was likely to cause Li Chengdao's dissatisfaction.

But to his surprise, Li Chengdao didn't mean to be angry. After glancing at Changsun Wuji, he left without saying a word.

"When a person dies, like a lamp extinguished, everything disappears. He will no longer touch his wife, family and children, and he will be buried in the imperial mausoleum according to the corresponding specifications."

Changsun Wuji was stunned on the spot.After a long time, his eyes filled with tears, he fell to the ground towards Li Chengdao's leaving figure, and choked with sobs.

"Wuji...thank you, His Highness the Grand Sun!"

……

Chang'an City quickly settled down within a few days after Li Chengdao took over.

Almost all of the [-] remaining troops under Li Shimin were saved except those generals and soldiers who tried to resist and were killed by Li Chengdao's order.

As the news of Li Shimin's suicide spread, all the riots subsided. This mighty battle for the throne ended with Li Chengdao's victory and Li Shimin's death.

At this point, the world's general trend has returned to Li Chengdao!

While Chang'an City was stabilized, Li Jing also led his troops and encountered the Yizhou Army who was rushing to Chang'an City for reinforcements.

Su Dingfang was leading his troops to capture Zhixian, a city a hundred miles away from Chang'an City. However, before they could capture Zhixian, Li Jing arrived with his troops.

Outside the county, Su Dingfang couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the "Wei" flag and the "Li" flag flying in the army not far away.

"Wei Zhoujun... is the teacher?"

Su Dingfang was a student of Li Jing. He studied the art of war with Li Jing. He also rose up by following Li Jing in his early years, so he respected Li Jing very much.

Although he had already learned the news that Li Jing had defected to Li Chengdao, when he encountered the Weizhou army, he still ordered the army to stop moving forward.

The two armies faced each other like this.

In the Weizhou Army, the soldiers suddenly separated a road. Li Jing rode his horse to the front of the formation, turned his attention to the Yizhou Army, and said coldly: "Where is Su Dingfang! Why don't you get out and see me!"

Li Jing was extremely disrespectful when he opened his mouth, completely inconsistent with his Confucian general style.

And his words also caused quite a commotion in the Yizhou army.

After a while, Su Dingfang rode out, then bowed his hands to Li Jing, bowed his head slightly and said: "The student has seen the teacher, I don't know why the teacher..."

"Shut your mouth! I don't have students like you! If you dare to call me teacher again, I will definitely kill you!"

Li Jing's face was full of anger and he directly interrupted Su Dingfang's words, his eyes filled with unspeakable anger.

"You evildoer! Do you know how much trouble you have caused!"
