After being turned into cannon fodder, I relied on involution to survive

The more times we have been distracted by one thing and the other, it will not be so easy to stabilize the situation.

After the three-party forces fought back and forth for a while, she not only nibbled away more than 90% of the newly occupied prefectures and counties of Zhenbei King and Jingguo Gong, but she also took advantage of her family members who stayed in the northern and southern Xinjiang. .

What made King Zhenbei and Duke Jing the most aggrieved was not their complete defeat, but the fact that they only found out about the news that their relatives were being controlled by Yu Zizhen because of his "kind-hearted" letter.

At this point, both King Zhenbei and Duke Jingguo knew that they had actually reached the end of their rope.

Not only did the two of them suffer day and night, and their hair became grayer day by day, but the opinions of their counselors and generals also began to have huge differences.

Some people think that they should be aware of the current situation and choose to return as soon as possible, while others think that they should be brave and choose to fight to the death. The two factions kept quarreling and making suggestions to King Zhenbei and Duke Jingguo.

However, before King Zhenbei and Duke Jingguo had time to make a decision, the defenders on the northern border started fighting with the foreigners who could not restrain themselves.

After receiving the news, King Zhenbei wished he could immediately break through the siege placed on him by Yu Zizhen's side and fight back to the border as quickly as possible. However, before he could contact Yu Zizhen, Yu Zizhen took the initiative to send him the latest news.

Yu Zizhen told him that the troops she sent had accurately attacked and had repelled the invading enemies together with the remaining Zhenbei King.

Moreover, her people also captured a number of spies buried in Beiyan in the north. The spies' confessions attached to the letter clearly stated that the lecherous fifth cousin of the King of Zhenbei sent troops to Beiyan on a large scale. What a "great contribution" has been made.

King Zhenbei shook his hands and read all the content sent by Yu Zizhen, "You bastard, you are really a bastard."

His counselors had been observing the changes in King Zhenbei's expression. Finally, after King Zhenbei had finished reading the outrageously thick letter sent by Yu Zizhen, everyone hurriedly asked him, "Your Majesty, what exactly is written in the letter?" What happened?"

King Zhenbei handed the letter to the counselor closest to him, "Read it for yourselves."

He was angry at Yu Zizhen for showing no mercy to his biological father, and also angry at his fifth cousin for his lustful behavior. Of course, he was most angry at himself. He was angry that he thought he was a hero all his life, but in the end, he repeatedly failed to treat his loved ones and made major mistakes.

Before King Zhenbei could adjust his mood, Yu Zizhen had people use bows and arrows to send surrender letters with very different contents to the besieged King Zhenbei and Duke Jingguo.

Although the letter of persuasion to surrender was not written by her, it was written entirely according to her instructions.

She first fully affirmed their achievements in guarding the border over the years, and then helped them analyze their current predicament very honestly and enthusiastically.

After the analysis, she ignored the author's euphemistic objections and asked them to write very bluntly, "Stop struggling, you have no chance of winning."

Finally, from the perspective of serving the country and the people as well as themselves, Yu Zizhen advised them to stop as soon as they saw fit. The Northern Yan had already fought, and the Southern Barbarians had also calmed down the civil strife. They would soon be free to look north to the Central Plains. When the time comes, I choose to surrender, so that I can gain a good reputation with the overall situation in mind and a righteous heart.

She gave King Zhenbei and Duke Jing two choices. One was to be granted the title of prince with a different surname and live in the capital with his family to enjoy wealth and wealth. The other was that they continue to guard the border, but their female dependents and their age were under fifteen. However, all children below need to live in Beijing permanently. Of course, Yu Zizhen also said that no matter which one they choose, they must live a law-abiding life like everyone else in the future, and their officers and soldiers must accept the unified management and dispatch of Yu Zizhen.

This so-called unified management and dispatch includes, but is not limited to, abiding by the army management regulations formulated by Yu Zizhen, controlling the size of the army within the scope allowed by Yu Zizhen, re-screening and registering their soldiers and generals, and deporting all those who are not in the appropriate age group and are physically fit. Disabled soldiers returned to their hometowns.

In addition, Yu Zizhen also proposed that all the land owned by themselves, their family members, and their subordinates must be unconditionally inspected. She will take back the land with improper origins to the state for free, and deal with the parties concerned in accordance with the law. .

The article about land is the same as the article about military power. They will seriously harm the king of Zhenbei, Duke Jing, their family and subordinate interests. But Yu Zizhen also said, "Don't be angry when you see this. This is really not my intention." For you, I have only formulated policies related to state-owned land. I specially asked people to write it in advance to give you enough time to prepare yourself mentally in advance."

Not only did he give an explanation, but Yu Zizhen even thoughtfully attached some regulations regarding state-owned land.

Only then did King Zhenbei and Duke Jing realize that Yu Zizhen had firmly affected the fundamental interests of those large and small forces.

The two of them thought in unison, "No wonder even if she killed so many people to establish her authority, there are still people in the eastern region who are eager to overthrow her rule."

Of course, to be able to capture the capital and force them both into a desperate situation after doing such a thing, Yu Zizhen was more than just a tough guy. The two of them seriously doubted that she was actually covered in weapons that could not be punctured, beaten, or poisoned. Immovable copper skin and iron bones.

Otherwise, with her ability to attract people to hate, the two of them felt that she would definitely not survive now.

"Time, fate, and luck." Duke Jingguo sighed and threw the letter to his children, grandchildren, and subordinates to read by themselves.

Although the old man regretted that the thing he had been planning for many years ended in failure, when he thought about Yu Zizhen, he felt strangely convinced that he had lost.

In his opinion, if he and King Zhenbei are the type where God rewards them with food, then Yu Zizhen is probably the type where God chases, coaxes and actively feeds them. Otherwise, she would not be helpless. With his female body, it took him just over ten years to accomplish what he and King Zhenbei had planned to do for half their lives.

Jingguo accepted his fate, but King Zhenbei, who received the letter of persuasion to surrender almost at the same time as him, was not so easy to look at the matter calmly.

He felt that it was very embarrassing to surrender to his own daughter, and for the ten thousandth time, he screamed in his heart, asking God why he didn't arrange for Yu Zizhen to be a man.

If Yu Zizhen had been a man, King Zhenbei believed that Princess Zhenbei would not treat her like that, and she would not complain so much about going to Beijing as a hostage.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as "if" in this world.

No matter how complicated the mood of King Zhenbei was, he finally broke away from the fantasy and returned to reality, forcing himself to calm down and face the current mess. (End of chapter)
