Tang Dynasty: Starting from Kou Zhong, the heavens rise!

Boom!

The voice fell.

Everyone present was shocked.

"I would like to congratulate Your Highness, and congratulate Great Chu!"

Hou Xibai and Xu Xingzhi were the first to react and speak out.

The rest of the people hurriedly spoke out: "I would like to congratulate Your Highness and congratulate Da Chu!"

All the demon sects that had lasted for thousands of years actually joined the Chu State, and they did not become sects of the Chu State, but became part of it, which was equivalent to being incorporated. What an incredible thing!

The newly joined brothers Wu Yunzhao and Xiong Kuohai had surprised looks in their eyes, and they were even more grateful that they had embraced him early.

"You have made great contributions to entering Guanzhong this time."

"But I don't plan to reward you at the moment, because after capturing Guanzhong, Da Chu will officially establish Chang'an as the capital."

"At that time, I will ascend to the throne of Chu King, and then I will promote you to nobility."

Looking down at the crowd, Kou Zhong said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Not only were no one unhappy at all, but everyone's face was filled with joy.

Previously, Kou Zhong was trapped in the position of duke. The highest title in Chu State was marquis, and Xu Ziling was the only one.

Now, once Kou Zhong becomes king, then everyone here may be made an earl or marquis, so why not wait a little later! .

Chapter 93: Sitting high on the throne, Kou Zhong holds the power of the world!

"before this."

"Let me remember a few people first, Wu Yunzhao, Wu Yunxi, Xiong Kuohai, Su Lie, Xue Rengui, Zhou Qing, Jiang Xingba, Jiang Xingben, Xue Xiantu, Wang Xinhe, Wang Xinxi, Li Qinghong, Li Qingxian."

Looking down, Kou Zhong spit out a string of names one after another.

"Join Your Highness!"

A group of people came out one after another and stood in the center of the tent.

"Order: Su Lie will be General Baotao, and Zhou Qing, Jiang Xingba, and Wang Xiantu will be the left and right generals and cavalry commanders."

"Order: Xue Rengui is the Qianniu General, Jiang Xingben, Wang Xinhe, and Wang Xinxi are the left and right generals, and the cavalry generals."

"Order: Wu Yunzhao will be the Yiwei general, Wu Yunxi, Xiong Kuohai, and Li Qinghong will be the left and right generals, and the cavalry commander."

"Li Qingxian will be transferred to Hengbo Army immediately and appointed as the commander of Hengbo's elite troops."

"From now on, the Lantian camp will be rebuilt, with the military division offering wine as the main general, and taking charge of the five armies of Yulin, Yulin, Baotao, Qianniu and Yiwei."

"Jingzhou was established from the six counties of Jingling, Xiangyang, Nanyang, Fangling, Xiyang and Xicheng. Jia Wuben was appointed as the governor of Jingzhou and Bai Rong was appointed as the captain of Jingzhou."

"Gui Xiliang was appointed as the governor of Huaizhou, and Xingrong was appointed as the captain of Huaizhou. Huaizhou administered seven counties: Chongling, Anlu, Yong'an, Qichun, Tong'an, Lujiang and Yiyang."

"The Wei army will be divided into two, and each of Jingzhou and Huaizhou will lead 5 people to capture each county."

Immediately, Kou Zhong warned without thinking.

Regarding the Wei Army, this is not a field army. Neither Jia Wuben nor Bai Rong, Gui Xiliang and Xingrong have the ability to lead, or in other words, they do not have the qualifications and conditions to fight a large army. This is also their limitation.

On the contrary, he can command an army of [-] people in a state and still allow them to do so with ease.

In this way, Jiangzhou, Huaizhou, and Jingzhou can be connected with Guanzhong. In particular, Jingzhou and Huaizhou respectively control most of the areas south of the Han River and the Huaihe River, forming a huge territory. Cooperating with the Bashu Chu army and Jiang The Chu army in the state has already formed a siege on Xiao Xian of Nanliang who is entrenched in Xiangchu.

At the same time, the Lantian Camp in Guanzhong has 50 troops from the Fifth Army. Whether it is going north to Hetao, west to Ganlong, or east to Luoyang, it has certain conditions.

"Yes!"

The generals present quickly responded, and everyone's face was filled with joy.

Suddenly, everyone has become a general with an army of tens of thousands or even a hundred thousand people. How can we not be happy?

"Your Highness!"

"The King of the Sui Dynasty personally wrote a letter asking for the surrender of our army!"

A figure hurriedly rushed in outside the tent. It was Li Junxian, the commander of Fusi in Jinyiwei North Town.

"Oh?"

This news shocked everyone present.

As the western capital of the Sui Dynasty, Chang'an had a high city and thick walls. They thought they would need to spend a lot of effort, but they didn't expect someone to surrender so easily.

"Come on, come into the city!"

Kou Zhong, who was at the head, stood up suddenly, mounted his dragon horse, and walked towards the bank of Ba River.

One hundred thousand Yulin troops followed closely behind, vast and boundless.

Chang'an City in the Sui Dynasty was not the original site of Chang'an City in the Han Dynasty, but a new city built by Yang Jian, the Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, to the west of the Ba River and on the south bank of the Wei River, and named it Daxing.

To be precise, Chang'an City is located between the Ba, Chan and Jian rivers, north of Longshouyuan, 20 miles from east to west and 80 miles from north to south.

Chang'an City has 25 streets running east to west and north to south, divided into two cities with 53 lanes. Zhuque Street is used as the boundary to divide the city into east and west parts: the east part belongs to Wannian County, with 55 lanes; the west part belongs to Chang'an County, with [-] lanes. There is a city with [-] squares.

The army was pointing at the Mingde Gate, the main gate of Chang'an City, and a stone bridge was built on the Ba River to connect the Mingde Gate and the official road.

On the bridge, King Yang You of the Sui Dynasty, Yin Shishi who stayed in Xijing, General Wei Qu Tutong, and Hu Yalang General Song Laosheng stood together, looking at the Yulin military formation in the distance, they couldn't help but feel filled with emotion in their hearts, as black as black, 10 people were silent and formed one body, which really showed the style of the Qin army.

"Several generals!"

"I will meet Kou Zhong in person later."

Yang You, who was only 13 years old, had a serious look on his face and solemnly said: "The fault of losing the city is all due to acting alone, not a crime of war."

"Your Highness can't!"

When Master Yin Shi, Qu Tutong, and Song Laosheng heard this, their expressions changed drastically.

Previously, they did want to prevent the acting king Yang You from surrendering to Kou Zhong, but now it seems that this is a wise choice.

Regardless of the fact that Kou Zhong himself is a great master, these [-] Yulin troops alone are not something they can match. What's more, Chu State still has [-] Yulin troops still in Lantian and has not come to Chang'an. If the two of them compete, then This is the real mantis trying to act like a chariot.

Therefore, the three of them are now grateful to the acting king Yang You. After all, they have always been the royal family who surrendered, and there were no generals or ministers who surrendered.

"Don't say too much about this matter, just do what you say!"

With a big wave of his hand, the acting king Yang You headed towards the direction of the Yulin Army. About 500 meters away from Kou Zhong, he knelt down and shouted: "The sinner Yang You, pay homage to Duke Chu!"

"May the Duke of Chu have mercy on the people of Chang'an. I am the one responsible for all the crimes. Don't implicate the innocent!"

see.

Everyone in the Chu Kingdom could not help but admire the 13-year-old Sui Dynasty King.

When this guy said such words, he obviously wanted to exchange his own death for the lives of all the civil and military officials in the city.

"Da da da!"

Accompanied by the crisp sound of horse hooves, Kou Zhong rode on the back of a dragon horse, looked down at Yang You, and said calmly: "I will not grant your request."

"The Chu army will not kill anyone indiscriminately among the people in Chang'an, but those officials, nobles, and family members who are guilty will be killed without mercy!"

"As for you, you are right. What is wrong is that you are in the royal family and I will not kill you."

"Edict: Yang You, the king of the Sui Dynasty, has a kind heart, abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, and was granted the title of Marquis of the Sui Dynasty in Chu State. He will not be replaced by hereditary officials."

"Da Chu does not need to kill the previous royal family to solve the threat. As long as I am here, Da Chu will be there, so there is nothing to fear!"

"Shh!"

When the acting king Yang You, who was kneeling on the ground, heard these words, he couldn't help but look up at Kou Zhong on the horse.

Kou Zhong was only five years older than him this year. He was wearing a black python robe and a purple gold crown. He showed his domineering attitude and gave people the urge to kowtow and surrender.

"Enter the city!"

Before Yang You could react, Kou Zhong shouted and took the lead across Bashui and entered Mingdemen Zhuque Street.

One hundred thousand Yulin troops entered Chang'an, the capital of Sui Dynasty, with broken steps and solemn faces, and took control of the nine gates of the outer city.

The entire streets of Chang'an were completely silent, and all the people were so scared that they hid at home. Only a black torrent passed through Zhuque Street and came directly to the imperial city. Three thousand Jin Yiwei took over the entire imperial city, and Jin Yitiqi was responsible for guarding Daxing Palace.

In this way, Kou Zhong came to the palace hall, looked at the tall dragon chair at the top, his eyes showed a touch of passion, walked up step by step, and sat down.

Hou Xibai, Xu Xingzhi, Shi Zhixuan, Zhu Yuyan and others who followed him looked at Kou Zhong who was sitting on the dragon chair, all with excited expressions on their faces.

The four people at the bottom, Yang You, Yin Shishi, Qu Tutong, and Song Laosheng, had complicated expressions.

"Come on!"

"Fei Ge sent a message to Poyang, ordering officials from the Fifth Army Governor's Office, the Sixth Ministry, Dali Temple, the Supervisory Office, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Mohist Academy, and the Si Mu Supervisor to come immediately."

"Except for the Jiangzhou government office, there are no central officials left in Jiangzhou."

"I asked Yankuan, the governor of Jiangzhou, to recruit [-] troops to defend the place."

"Order Zhang Xutuo to lead the Jinwu Army to Jiangxia County and monitor every move of Nanliang."

"Recruit [-] troops to Cui Jixiu, the governor of Xuancheng County, to defend the place."

"Yes."

A Jinyi Tiqiu left in response.

"Evil King, Yin Queen, I want you to take the Jin Yiwei to inspect Xuandu Temple."

"As for Louguan Dao, the No. 11 Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Master's Mansion has already arrived."

With that said, Kou Zhong looked at Shi Zhixuan and Zhu Yuyan.

"it is good!"

Shi Zhixuan and Zhu Yuyan did not refuse. As a Taoist temple established by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Xuandu Temple contained many Taoist priests and was extremely powerful.

Moreover, it contains a large number of Taoist classics and exercises, which are very important to the Chu State.

Only the two great masters can ensure that nothing goes wrong.

"us.."

Shi Qingxuan and Wanwan wanted to follow, but were stopped by Kou Zhong: "Why are you two going over to join in the fun?"

"There are maids and concubines in this palace. Qingxuan, you are responsible for arranging the maids. Wait for Yuzhen to come over and then hand over."

"Wanwan, please arrange for the concubine and ask the military generals if they are willing to accept her. If not, then set up a women's garden and let them serve as lecturers."

"Since you are going to be a wife, let's get familiar with the affairs of the palace first."

"it is good!"

Hearing this, Shi Qingxuan and Wanwan did not refuse. They responded obediently and sent their followers with Yin Gui to sort out the harem.

Although Yang Guang went south to Jiangdu, there were thousands of maids and concubines in Daxing Palace, which was not a small number.

"Marquis of Sui."

"How many people are there in the Sui army in Chang'an? What is the situation of the arsenal?"

At this time, Kou Zhong looked at Yang You and asked.

"Back to Your Highness!"

"There are currently 12 troops and a strong population of [-] people."

"The armor in the arsenal is enough to arm an army of 50 people."

Yang You seems to have accepted the fate of surrendering to Chu and has corrected his position.

"it is good!"

Kou Zhong nodded slightly and said with satisfaction: "I remember that there is a palace of the Prince of Jin in Chang'an City."

"I grant you the title of Marquis, and you can take your mother, Concubine Wei, and your father's concubines out of the palace."

"I think you seem to be practicing martial arts. The Chu State has implemented martial arts for all people. With your title, you can obtain master-level martial arts and martial arts."

"When the Ministry of Internal Affairs has completed the arrangements, you can go to collect them together, or join the army, politics, or business, it is up to you to decide."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"
