Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 578: Save the people

The imperial city has been captured, a palace building was set on fire, and smoke billowed. Other cities in Jinyang either surrendered or were captured. The defenders were attacked from inside the city, and it was difficult to make any effective resistance. The wide ramp with several carriages running side by side inside the city wall could not be prevented.

The aftermath of battles around the city is still happening, but for Guo Shao's army, this war is over!

Guo Shao walked down from the Nancheng city tower, and when he passed the ramp of the city wall, his face was a little heavy, but he did not speak, but was silent. The ground was full of corpses, and there was almost no place to step on. The boots have been drenched with blood, and the toes in the socks are very slippery; the blood on the masonry and corpses has mostly solidified, but there is still a lot of blood, probably the tissue fluid flowing out of the human body.

He has participated in too many battles, and his heart doesn't feel very much about this kind of scene, a bit numb... but it is still uncomfortable. Because he is not a person who hates humans, he has compassion for people and many of the most intuitive emotions.

After walking down the city, there are still many post-war matters reported and arranged. Seeing that Guo Shao ignored them, the surrounding generals and ministers arranged everything for him.

Guo Shao's previous tense, efficient, and sharp performance has disappeared, and his firm and decisive words have disappeared. At this time, his actions are not so decisive and powerful, and he has become both silent and slow.

Even he himself was very strange. He thought he would be pleasantly surprised after he captured Jinyang, but he only felt relieved when this moment came. Perhaps that kind of self-inflating excitement will come slowly, but not at a certain moment; the fruits of victory are not intuitive, and they are not immediate results, but they are profound.

Lu Chengyong led the horse over, and when he got off the city, he turned on his horse, and led his soldiers along the north-south main road towards the imperial city. Not long after, Wang Pu from the former camp outside the city also came into the city.

Guo Shao rode a horse in front of the imperial city of the Northern Han Dynasty and looked at it for a while. It was the first time for him to see this "Dragon City" power center complex. The inside and outside of the imperial city have been controlled by the Zhou army. Guo Shao rode straight into the imperial city by sword.

Guo Shao waited for a while outside the main hall of the Imperial Palace of the Northern Han Dynasty, and Wang Pu, Zuo You and others all caught up.

The surrounding Zhou army officers found that the emperor riding on the tall black horse was shouting and cheering, and Guo Shao ignored it. He calmed down from his nervous and **** emotions, and was considering dealing with the ideas of the Northern Han Dynasty monarchs and ministers... After ascending to the throne, Guo Shao never went to battle personally; to achieve victory after victory, he understood that it was not only by agitating the soldiers' emotions. It succeeded precisely because it took the more correct path in most practical matters, adjusting the concepts of all levels of the army like a captain at the helm.

Wang Pu and others bowed their horses to worship. Wang Pu's old face was very excited, and said: "Your Majesty Hexi, the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty was captured in half a month! Your majesty, the world is looking up."

"Exemption." Guo Shao turned over from the horse and threw the rein to Lu Chengyong who was leading the horse in front.

Guo Shao thought deeply and thought that he could not scold the Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty like he did before the war... At least he must respect the Lord, because he himself is also the ruler, and he should not devalue the status of the Lord too much; instill in the soldiers and the people of the world. _ Losing the impression that the ruler will be nothing as soon as he loses is trying to find his position unhappy.

He calmly said to Wang Pu: "The Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty was deceived by some traitorous officials in the country. Those traitorous officials led the Liao army to slaughter their own clan regardless of righteousness and caused the Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty to fall into injustice. Let the people of Hedong and the people of Dazhou suffer deeply, and they must be punished severely! But the people of Hedong always look forward to the arrival of the king and save the people from fire and water."

After hearing this, Wang Pu's face condensed, and he thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty is wise, and he has an insight into the abuses of the Northern Han Dynasty at a glance! The officials of the former camp will verify the criminal evidence, so that the houses of treacherous officials will be convicted justly to comfort the world. "

Guo Shao was very satisfied with Wang Pu's insight, and immediately strode up the steps with his sword. Surrounding military commanders and civilian officials surrounded him, and a large group walked to the palace of the Northern Han Dynasty.

When he reached the gate of the palace, he saw a young man wearing a yellow dragon robe and two rows of civil servants and generals kneeling in the hall. People saw a group of people coming in and looked up at Guo Shao and others. No one knew who the emperor was; Guo Shao was dressed in uniform and armor, and looked like a military commander.

But suddenly someone shouted: "The criminal officials waited to see the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

I don't know how to recognize Guo Shao... Maybe it's because the officials in purple official robes are surrounded by a man in armor.

Guo Shao strode up and walked straight to the person wearing the dragon robe. It should be Liu Jun, the lord of the Northern Han Dynasty. At this moment, Liu Jun held the Yuxi in both hands and held it high above his head. He couldn't say a word in the scene. Guo Shao noticed that his hand was shaking, and he was a little disappointed...The Northern Han Army was still very effective, but the family of the Northern Han Emperor Gaozu left; the Northern Han master in front of him was obviously not as good as Liu Chong who wanted to find a chance to attack the Central Plains at any time.

Guo Shao didn't say a word, stretched out his right hand and grabbed Yuxi back unceremoniously. Looking back at the left and right with anger, the emperor in the palace hurriedly lowered his body.

At this moment, the long-term accusation that the Guo Family of the Great Zhou Dynasty usurped the Liu Family and thought that they did not share the hatred of the sky was "resolved" at once.

Guo Shao turned around with little interest and left the main hall and walked out. He held back on the steps, turned his head to look at Wang Pu and Zuo You, and said in a deep voice, "Find a cup of poisoned wine and send it to Liu Jun. It will save trouble."

Wang Pu did not say a word, but did not object either.

Zuo You clasped his fist and said: "Your Majesty~www.readwn.com~ The minister went to make arrangements for this matter, and he declared that the Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty died of a sudden illness.

Guo Shao nodded, twisted his upper body, raised his head and glanced at the double eaves of the Great Hall of the North Han Kingdom, then turned and walked down.

Guo Shao felt that there was nothing wrong with not convicting the Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty and letting him die decently. Guo Shao didn’t even feel that the Liu family killed Guo Wei’s family and the Guo family seized Liu’s family. It’s none of his own... But in Guo Shao’s mind, the chief culprit of this war was the Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty, although Guo Shao He was unwilling to convict him, but with so many deaths, it is hard to accept not killing him; besides, the Northern Han Dynasty was forcibly annihilated by the war. Da Zhou had the right to execute his country unconditionally, and killing his country's lord was nothing wrong.

The world where the weak eats the weak, the failed people die, that's all.

For other military orders, Guo Shao didn't want to bother himself. The former camp was mainly composed of civilian officials in the Privy Council, and there was a complete civilian organization. They would tell how to deal with the aftermath, how to reward and punish them, and how to settle the people.

"Where is Yang Ye?" Guo Shao only asked at this time.
