Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 181 Whose Servant?
Above the royal court of Longquan Mansion, the master who has been away for a long time has finally returned to the quaint throne that exudes infinite majesty and temptation.In the royal court, the ground was full of kneeling, some were gray-haired, some were in their prime, but all of them were dressed in splendid clothes, but trembling.

There was only one reason that made them tremble with fear, and that was the small pile of letters in Duan Hongchen's hand, and the sword warriors standing in the royal court.

Duan Hongchen sneered at the people kneeling on the ground below, those kneeling people immediately shook their bodies, Duan Hongchen then picked up a letter and read with a blank expression:

"My minister Chen Wang secretly said that the king of Goguryeo is the king, and the minister was provoked by Min. Last month, the puppet king stole the throne of Bohai..."

In the middle of reading, Duan Hongchen stopped, and sighed: "Who is Chen Wang?"

"The ministers and ministers are here, kings and kings..." A white-haired old man crawled out.

"It's you, hahahaha..." Duan Hongchen burst out laughing, everyone couldn't understand the meaning, and all looked sideways, only Duan Hongchen said to the old man after laughing enough:

"You wrote in the letter 'I only want to be loyal to you, but my grandmother is still here'. Your grandmother is no longer an old goblin? Hahahaha..."

After Duan Hongchen finished speaking, he laughed again.But he was the only one in the royal court who laughed, and he was the only one who could laugh.Duan Hongchen continued to read the letter vividly:
"I was an orphan when I was young. I was often sick, lonely and lonely. My family was weak and poor, and I had children later. I stand alone, only my shadow is attached to each other.

Grandmother Minchen was lonely and weak, and raised her by herself. As for the establishment.

But the grandmother is now suffering from a long-term infant illness, and often stays in the bed, serving soup and medicine, and dare not abandon her.Grandma is getting old, I just want to be filial in front of grandma and be loyal to you..."

Duan Hongchen asked, "Where did all your loyalty go?!"

"Old minister..."

"Hey, you deserve to call yourself an old minister! Whose minister doesn't know yet!"

"Grassman, villain..." Chen Wang cried: "The villain is so confused, I beg the king to spare me, I will definitely be able to..."

"Shut up!" Duan Hongchen cut off his entreaties, and waved to the royal court: "Come here! Push this old thief out, skin him, ransack his family, exterminate his family, and dig up his ancestral grave, let him die!" No place to die!"

"You... ah... ah... ah!" Hearing Duan Hongchen's ruthless words, Chen Sheng couldn't help but get angry, Chen Wang, die.

However, the samurai don't care whether you are dead or alive, they stepped up and dragged the corpse out, and still peeled the skin!

At this time, everyone in the royal court not only shivered, but rolled their eyes and fainted, and there were people everywhere!
After waking up those who fainted from fright, there was another sound of begging for forgiveness accompanied by kowtow.Duan Hongchen remained motionless, his expression even colder!
Picked up another belief:

"...When I learned that the divine soldiers of the Holy Dynasty came here to save my subjects, I wept with joy. I am humble, and I should serve you with a pot of milk. I can't report it to you."

After reading, Duan Hongchen asked: "Who wrote this?"

There was silence, and no one dared to answer, because there was no signature in the letter just now!Who's going to rush to the top of this?Anyway, everyone wrote about the same!

Duan Hongchen said indifferently: "Well, there's no need to search, just push them out and peel them off, and the rest will be the same as that old thief!"

At this time, the royal court became lively again, killing them all, why not report and make meritorious deeds!A friend who dies does not die a poor Taoist, Amitabha!
"I'll report it, it's him!"

"Your mother, Sun and Moon! Your Majesty, I know that letter..."

"Your Majesty, how could it be me, you know my Liu family..."

"Your Majesty, they are all lying. Only I know who wrote the letter!"

"Oh?"

At this time, when everyone heard the phrase "Only I know", they all fell silent, looked at the person who spoke together and said, "It's you!"

Only you know, isn't that what you wrote?Amitabha, Daoist friend is courageous, Taoist friend is responsible, thank you in advance, if you escape from birth, you will bring a whole sheep, no, a whole chicken, no, a whole egg to pay homage to you!

Anonymous, died.

One by one, the people were pushed out to splatter three feet with blood, and the first peeled human skin was sent to the royal court for everyone to "watch".

Human blood seems to be unable to stop killing people in the world of mortals, I saw him pick up a piece of faith and said:
"Fu Wei's holy dynasty governed the country with benevolence, and those who are old and old will still be educated.

The minister is currently living in the puppet dynasty, and has worked in the Lang's office.Today, the holy dynasty comes with divine soldiers, and only asks the king to forgive his sins.

May the king be merciful to the foolish..."

"Listen to the minister's Wei Zhi, the minister should die when he is born, and the grass should be weeded when he dies. The minister is overwhelmed by the fear of dogs and horses, and I would like to ask you to hear it.

The minister is sincere and terrified, he bows his head, the death penalty is the death penalty..."

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The more Duan Hongchen said, the more furious he was, roaring at the royal court, as if he was going to eat everyone.

The king's wrath lay down millions of corpses, and the blood flowed across the oars.Duan Hongchen is considered kind, killing, only killing the head of the family, and the rest of the staff are just punished as slaves.Other than the three clans, they didn't even pursue it.

After killing ten people in a row, everyone finally understood that begging cannot be exchanged for life, so someone stood up and said to Duan Hongchen: "Your Majesty, I have a word..."

"Whose subject?"

"Uh, a minister of Bohai!" The man cupped his hands and said, "After Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao in the battle of Guandu in the past, he seized a large number of letters. Cao Cao didn't read any of them and burned them all, thus winning the hearts of the people and running rampant in the world. Learn..."

"Win people's hearts? Cao Cao has people's hearts? Hahahaha..." Duan Hongchen laughed loudly: "What did those people who were forgiven by Cao Cao do later? Help Sima to usurp the throne! It doesn't matter, but you are half as good as Cao Cao's subordinates? A bunch of moths!"

"You are so unkind, you will be punished by heaven!"

"Hmph! That's not something you can see..." Duan Hongchen stopped reading, and directly searched for clues, killing those who had a signature first, and then separated the crowd, and let them get rid of those who didn't. come out.In the end there were five or six people left, Duan Hongchen couldn't find their letter, he would rather kill by mistake than let them go, lock them up first!
Those powerful private soldiers wanted to make trouble, but they were subdued by Duan Hongchen by means.After clearing the rear, Duan Hongchen officially set off to the north.

Duan Hongchen led his troops to go north quietly, and for five days, he launched a surprise attack with the Dahe clan.The Dahe clan attracted the main force of the Xi clan, and Duan Hongchen took advantage of the gap to occupy the rear base camp of the Xi clan.

The Xi tribe is a slavery tribal country, and there are many Han people, Mohe people and other slaves in the tribe.As soon as Duan Hongchen arrived, he liberated all the slaves and let them take up weapons to fight, and the number of troops increased to ten thousand in a sudden.

When the Xi family found out that the rear was lost, they divided up their troops to rescue them, but they were beaten to the ground by the broken crossbowmen.

The Dahe clan took the opportunity to go south and continued to attack the Xi clan.The Xi clan fought hard, and the Dahe clan suffered a small loss.It's just that at the end of the battle, the Xi people still failed.Some united tribes surrendered, some Xi people surrendered to survive, some fled to the Turkic land, and some became horse thieves wandering on the grassland.

No matter what, the name Xi Clan will only appear in the world.

In tribal wars, the victor will incorporate the clan name of the defeated into his clan name.The Dahe Clan is different, and the glorious task of unifying the name falls to the hands of Yelubai.

Danbu, renamed Xi Danbu, in the Dahe family, "Xi" is pronounced as "Qi" - the Khitan tribe seems to have been born in this way.After Xu Qing heard this little news, he couldn't help expressing emotion, the wheel of history is really stubborn.I thought I would take this opportunity to change the Khitan, but I didn't expect that the Khitan tribe would be born earlier, I didn't expect...

Sit in rows and share fruits.After the war, Duan Hongchen and Yelubai shared dividends according to the agreement agreed by Xu Qing.When the two shared the "loot", they looked at each other from a distance for a long time, but in the end they didn't say a word, and when they shared the spoils, they let their subordinates take care of them.Perhaps, this is the communication between the two powerhouses?
Tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, seven or eight thousand liberated slaves, thousands of slaves of the Xi tribe, and thousands of horses were distributed to Duan Hongchen.

It took three days to figure out the population of these things, and a prairie horse was exhausted.

Of course, both parties prepared a "small gift" for Xu Qing.This small gift is definitely comparable to all the wealth of a little grassland leader.However, from the liberated captives, a large number of Han people, Bohai people, and even purebred Mohe people were seen.

When the envoys of the Xi tribe came to Bohai to discuss peace, they didn't even mention a word about this group of people.Duan Hongchen understood in his heart, knowing the wolfish ambitions of the Xi clan, he never thought of making peace with Bohai.I just want to get through this crisis, and then settle Bo Hai's account after the fall.

In this way, Duan Hongchen's last trace of guilt disappeared.For the Bohai Kingdom, within three years, the northern border will be considered worry-free.

South, Goguryeo!

"Alas..." Duan Hongchen sighed, did he really want to go south of the Yangtze River and beat down the Goguryeo people?But today's Bohai Sea also needs digestion and rest... Duan Hongchen is well aware of the importance of governing the country and keeping the people safe, and resorting to military action will only be futile.

"As long as the Goguryeo people don't come, I won't go! If you offend me, you will never come back!"

On the bank of the Yalu River, at the ancient ferry, where Xu Qing's garrison has received several batches of Xi captives, and those Xi captives have become a strong driving force for the construction of the border.

The war is over, and I have almost finished building the castle. Xu Qing is no longer ashamed to let the three thousand grassland men carry wood and shovel sand, and let the three thousand grasslands pull stones.

Let them go, Xu Qing still has 1000 people left in his hands.It is enough to guard the captives and mend the castle. Anyway, there are only 1000 people on the opposite side.

The castle built by Xu Qing has some Western European style, tall and pointed.But now Western Europeans are still "scrambling", and this architectural style can only be regarded as "Bohai style".

Outside the castle, there are many refugees recruited by Xu Qing, and thousands of acres of fertile land have been reclaimed.The bloody Yalu River finally had a chance to moisten the farmland and feed a lot of lives.Soon, the population here will increase. Gradually, every family will have livestock, every family will have looms, merchants will bring special products from other places to visit, and then, build a circle With the city wall, there are dedicated commercial areas and industrial areas.

This boundary is impenetrable.
