Chapter 499 Xun Yu Visits

In the royal capital, there were wails everywhere and flames were burning.

Cheng Lian's targeted killing of the powerful and wealthy was one, and Dian Wei's large-scale search in the city was the second.

The five tribes of Goguryeo ruled together, and the inner city was naturally the focus of the division of power among the tribes.

The Duowu tribe colluded with the Han people to rebel and treason, and had been purged long ago. The royal Feiliu tribe had also been hit hard by the Minglin father and son and had few members left.

Therefore, there are only three forces in this domestic city, and the Qian's faction accounts for nearly two-thirds.

"Your Majesty has ordered that the whole group of the Yuan tribe should be punished for treason and their heads should be put in the imperial palace."

"However, considering that God has a merciful heart and the principal offender has been captured, the sentence of exile is lenient."

"From now on, all the people of the Yuanna tribe must immediately set off to Liaodong to cultivate the land to atone for their sins."

"Violators will be beheaded in public!"

Dian Wei read Su Yao's decree aloud on the bulletin board in the city.

Contrary to what everyone had imagined the notice to reassure the people, the order to relocate the entire tribe caused an uproar in the city. The people of the Qianna tribe were terrified. They had never thought that they would face such severe punishment.

"Oh my God, how could this happen?"

"We are leaving immediately. How are we going to carry our things?"

"General Dian, this...is this order too harsh?" asked an elder of the Qianna tribe in a trembling voice, his eyes full of despair.

Dian Wei glanced at him coldly, without the slightest hesitation in his voice:

"No one can change Lord Su's decision."

"You only have two options. Either obey orders and set off for Liaodong immediately, or you will die."

The elder's face was as pale as paper. He understood that resistance would only hasten their demise.

After struggling for a while, he could only lower his head helplessly and accept this cruel reality.

After all, nothing is more precious than life.

However, as the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food, not everyone is so wise.

Some tried to hide in their homes, while others tried to hide their origins.

However, the people from the Guanna and Hengna tribes living around them immediately rushed to expose the incident.

In the end, what awaits them is beheading for their useless questions and answers.
Because of Ming Lindaye's arrogance and conceit, the entire Yuanna tribe was wiped out, their property was confiscated, their land was seized, and all the men and women in the tribe were sent to Liaodong as slaves.

They cried, they shouted, they wailed, it was a miserable sight.

However, the city was already polarized at this moment:

"Your Excellency is still too merciful."

In front of the palace, Xiao Guannaga shook his head.

Wuluga also agreed in a deep voice:
"None of these traitors who have betrayed their ancestors should be spared!"

Su Yao just chuckled at these people's radical ideas.

He also understood that the demise of Goguryeo was accelerated by his intervention.

But the most crucial reason is that the domestic situation is in a state of chaos.

In history, they have been constantly caught in the vortex of civil strife since then.

They first fell into civil war and division during a period of opportunity when many heroes emerged. After finally waiting for the country to stabilize, they took the wrong side against the backdrop of the Three Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony in the Central Plains. They chose to ally with Wu to fight against Cao, hoping to replace Gongsun's position in Liaodong and stabilize the royal power with their brilliant military achievements.

However, King Wu of the Wei Dynasty finally betrayed his teammates. Cao Wei, which had solved the problem in the south, launched a counterattack and almost destroyed Goguryeo. It was not until seventy years later that they regained their prestige.

However, these are not important to Su Yao now. Having destroyed Goguryeo in advance, he would not give these people a chance to revive.

After relocating the people and dividing the land, his next decision was to burn down the mountain city of Marudu and open up those dangerous passages to establish a closer connection with the inland area of ​​Liaodong.

In the future of Northeast China, there will never be a second Goguryeo.

After giving a round of orders, Su Yao suddenly said:
"Why did that old Wang die?"

"It's really hard to lose the biggest part of the spoils!"

"what?"

"What do you mean, sir?"

Lu Bu held his forehead and sighed:

"Old Wang is already dying of illness. Even if you capture him, I'm afraid it will be of no use."

"But isn't it enough that Ming Lin Daye is imprisoned intact?"

"Of course not enough!"

Su Yao asserted:
"If it is just a matter of sending troops to intervene and depose and enthrone, the powerful minister Mo Lizhi can be said to be of sufficient weight."

"But now we are fighting a war to annihilate a nation, and what matters is to arrest the ruler and bring him to justice."

"Without the King of Goguryeo, not only will I lose an animation, but I will also have no chance to return to Beijing with a legitimate reason."

"Ah?" Lu Bu looked confused.

Animation, back to Beijing? What the hell is going on?
He naturally didn't know that Su Yao was eager to go home.

Not to mention that the major historical event of Emperor Ling's death was about to come, there was also a little princess in Luoyang City waiting for him to marry.

If Emperor Ling really died as expected, the marriage would probably be delayed for a long time.

However, things happened outside the pass one after another. Originally, we wanted to catch the false emperor, but there has been no news of him so far.

Therefore, Su Yao thought of taking advantage of the war to destroy the country and escort the King of Goguryeo to the capital.

However, the crazy Ming Lindaye ended up killing the king and not giving him this opportunity.

Must we think of another way?

Or is it that we can only change our strategy, work hard in Liaodong and watch the changes in the world?

Luoyang City. Can't go back after all?
At this moment, suddenly, a loud laugh came from behind Su Yao:
"I thought you were now indulging in the mountains and rivers of Liaodong and not thinking about the scenery of the Central Plains."

"???"

The scene of the big bad wolf baring its teeth and the silly roe deer glaring suddenly appeared in Su Yao's mind.

Su Yao was a little speechless and was about to retort when he saw a tall, handsome scholar bowing to him:
"Xun Wenruo has met Lord Su."

"How did Wen Ruo get here?" Su Yao looked surprised.

Xun Yu is here.

Su Yao actually knew that before he set out on the expedition to the dense forest, Xun Yu had already arrived in Liaodong on horseback.

However, Su Yao was in a hurry to get promoted at that time, so he had no time to meet him. He just asked Wei Ming and others to entertain him and asked Xun Yu to help handle government affairs in the rear.

It was also thanks to the efforts of Xun Yu, Wei Ming, Wang Ling, Qian Zhao, Tian Chou and others in the rear that, although they divided their troops into two groups, advanced rapidly, and even crossed the river to attack, there were no problems with the supply of food and grass in the rear.

But Su Yao never expected that Xun Wenruo would actually come directly to the front line in such a chaotic time.

"Since you intend to return to the capital, I have two pieces of news to report to you."

"Two messages?"

"Yes."

Xun Yu replied:

"One is good and the other is bad. May I ask which one you would like to hear first?"
