Chapter 1048: Western Shu surrenders!
Western Shu.
royal palace.
There were only two figures left in the main hall. They were sitting opposite each other, with the scent of fragrant tea rising and the smoke rising, and the light fragrance filling the air.
"His Majesty!"
"News has come from the east."
"Yeah!" Emperor Shu nodded silently, his expression looking particularly deep: "So, what does the prince-in-law mean?"
"What I mean is not important."
Guo Jia shook his head, looked at the chessboard on the table, and slowly made his moves: "Now the general trend of the world has been determined, and all those as powerful as Dayan have fallen to Dayu's cavalry."
"Although Western Shu is stuck in a corner, there are dangerous mountains and strong folk customs, but the people of Yu naturally know the power of Dayu's iron cavalry!"
"Your Majesty, the world has been undergoing changes for a long time, and no one can survive alone!"
"Now, not only are there disputes in the Central Plains, there are also Hunu knocking on the door, and two years later, aliens invade."
"We, the Central Plains, share weal and woe, life and death as one!"
"Xishu, don't fight it!"
After Guo Jia finished speaking, the Emperor of Shu laughed loudly: "So, with just a few words from you, Guo Fengxiao, you want me to hand over the territory conquered by my ancestors?"
"How will the officials in the court view me?"
"How should my millions of people in Western Shu view me?"
"All the gentlemen of Gonggun have dedicated their lives to our Western Shu. The soldiers at the border and the generals in the court are all practicing day and night to resist the invasion!"
"You actually let me hand over these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers to others!"
"Hahaha!"
The Emperor of Shu overturned the chessboard in front of him and said loudly: "I will never surrender, and neither will I, Western Shu!"
"Even if I die, I will die on horseback!"
"My son, the son of Xishu, can only be buried on the battlefield!"
"Guo Jia, take Mingyang and her son and leave Xishu!"
"His Majesty!"
Guo Jia's face was moved. After getting along with him during this period of time, he naturally knew the temperament of Emperor Shu. Although he did not have great talents and strategies, he still had the appearance of a wise king.
But as a loyal king, if he were placed in a prosperous age, he might be able to lead Xishu to a higher level!
But now, it’s a war in troubled times!
"Don't try to persuade me again!"
"I care about Mingyang's affection and won't argue with you. Otherwise, your words in the past few days are enough for me to take your head!"
Guo Jia shook his head slightly, with a wry smile on his face: "It seems that His Majesty still has illusions in his heart!"
"That's fine!"
"If His Majesty is still so decisive after hearing Jiayou's last words, Jia, I will definitely stop trying to persuade him!"
"Um?"
The Emperor of Shu's expression froze. Guo Jia looked at his puzzled expression and said leisurely: "If the Western Regions and Dayu jointly attack Shu, Your Majesty, how sure do you think Western Shu can survive under the attack from both sides?"
"You mean..." Emperor Shu's expression suddenly changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Dayu secretly united the Western Regions?"
"No!"
Guo Jia shook his head and said word by word: "There are now more than ten countries in the Western Region, controlled by Dayu!"
"This is impossible!"
Emperor Shu shook his head directly, the shock on his face was beyond words.
"If it is true or false, Your Majesty can send someone to investigate!"
"More than half a year ago, a force emerged in the Western Regions, and its leaders were Wang Jian, Wang Mang, and Wang Xuance..."
"These people are all Yu people!"
Speaking of this, the Emperor of Shu could no longer tolerate disbelief, but Guo Jia sighed leisurely: "Your Majesty, a few years ago, when the great age came, Western Shu stuck to one side, and today's outcome has been decided!"
"Instead of increasing the number of killings and causing war again, we might as well put down the war and follow the general trend!"
"This unification is not only what everyone expects!"
"It's more to face the catastrophe in two years' time!"
Emperor Shu was silent for a long time, looked at Guo Jia, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me about Dayu's conditions!"
"Nothing!"
"Um?"
There was a hint of surprise on the face of the Emperor of Shu, and he heard Guo Jia say in a deep voice: "Jia can promise to Your Majesty that after Western Shu surrenders, all the descendants of the royal family will be preserved!"
"Your Majesty has no fear for his life!"
"If your Majesty is willing, you can lead your clan to separatist territory in the Western Regions!"
"really?"
"Jia is willing to guarantee it with his life!"
…
Seven days later.
As the last city of Da Yan surrendered, Da Yan was completely destroyed!
Bauhinia City Golden Palace.
"Lord!"
"The whereabouts of Luo Tian have not been found so far!"
"If you can't find it, don't look for it!"
Ning Fan frowned and said in a deep voice: "He is a legendary military commander. If he really wants to hide it, I'm afraid no one will be able to find him!"
"yes!"
Li Ru nodded slightly and continued: "With the appointment of a group of officials from Dayu in the past few days, the situation has stabilized."
"My lord, there is news from Fengxiao that Xishu is willing to surrender!"
"oh?"
Ning Fan was a little surprised. It was really unexpected for a country to surrender without seeing any troops.
However, even if Western Shu does not surrender, it is just a matter of wasting more effort.
The geographical location of Xishu is relatively special. The country is mostly covered with mountains and forests with high altitude, but Ning Fan is not unprepared.
Now, Xi Shu is willing to surrender, which can save a lot of effort.
"Fengxiao said that when my army enters Shu, there will be a smooth road all the way to the capital!"
"Um!"
Ning Fan nodded, and then asked: "Has Feng Xiao ever said how the Emperor of Shu should be settled?"
"Feng Xiao means to send him to the Western Regions!"
"Then...what do you mean?"
Ning Fan looked straight at Li Ru, who said calmly: "My Lord, a country cannot have two masters!"
"Rather than leaving this hidden danger, it is better to eliminate it forever!"
"No!"
Ning Fan shook his head and said lightly: "A Western Shu emperor can't cause any waves. Now the most important thing for me, Dayu, is to stabilize people's hearts!"
"Western Shu surrendered, saving us a lot of trouble!"
"If we provide the Shu emperor with good food and drink, we can stabilize the situation the fastest!"
"Just follow Guo Jia's words and send him to the Western Regions!"
"Yes!"
Li Ru didn't say much. Ning Fan pondered for a long time and said softly: "Now among the Central Plains countries, except for Dali, All returned to Yu, I still have to go to Dali!"
"Li Ru, summon Xiao He and Zhuge Liang, I plan to divide the Central Plains into nine states, including Dali, and set up nine states with 108 counties!"
"Let them come up with a charter as soon as possible!"
"In addition, the problems left in Dayan must be solved one by one. Now that Changsun Wuji is in charge of Zijing City, it is not enough!"
"Let Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui come together!"
"Yes!"
"Let Feng Xiao take full charge of the matter of accepting the surrender of Western Shu!"
"It can also be regarded as leaving a trace of face for the Western Shu royal family!"
"Yes!"
After Li Ru finished speaking, Ning Fan thought of the war in the northern border.
"Now, I, Dayu, have another worry!"
"It's Hu Nu!"
"Order the Qin Army and the Huaxia Army to go north, wait for the three armies to join forces, and attack Dayan!"
"My Lord!"
Li Ru's eyes were filled with worry: "The dragon riders of Dayan are still missing!"
"It doesn't matter!" Ning Fan shook his head: "Xu Fengnian is watching."
