Chapter 2750 Siege
Prince Gao's front feet were sent back to the prison, and Zhang Hui's back feet were lifted and slipped out.
He rolled his eyes and went to see the King of Goguryeo honestly.
This time, not only the King of Goguryeo, but also the ministers of Goguryeo were in the hall.
To persuade people to surrender, of course, one person counts the short and the three count the long.
The King of Goguryeo proposed what all men in this world dream of, an official position, a title, and even land.
In addition, there are beauties, money, what do you want, a request, to persuade the emperor of the Jin Dynasty to negotiate peace, he is willing to cede the area west of Liaodong City to Jin, and Goguryeo becomes a vassal of Jin.
Zhang Hui pondered in his heart, he had been squatting in the sky prison for a few days, why did he see the fifth prince and him again today?
Also given such generous conditions.
Is it...
The badge's eyes are slightly bright. Could it be that Your Majesty and the others have arrived with the army?
He immediately lowered his eyes to cover the brilliance in his eyes, and after a while he raised his head and said solemnly to the King of Goguryeo: "Your Majesty, don't worry about me. Silla and Baekje, who are vassals, also forced their subjects to belong to you, and violated our Dajin border many times. Today's disasters in Goguryeo are all the retribution of the royal court of the Gao family for not cultivating morality..."
Zhang Hui is the servant of the Ministry of Rites. Speaking of Lilai, it takes three days and three nights to finish. Let’s talk about the relationship between the two countries first. Jin is the master, and Koguryo is the minister. This was set at the beginning of the founding of the country. You handed it in person, but you repeatedly violated the agreement between the principal and minister, and in turn provokes the host country;
Let’s talk about the internal affairs of Koguryo. In these years, the royal court of the Gao clan was extravagant, and he was a good soldier, and the people under his rule were miserable;
In the end, it was mentioned that their rule of law was chaotic. Although it was impossible for the nobles to break the law with the common people, but based on what he knew during the time he arrived in the inner city, the nobles here can simply do whatever they want to the ordinary people, and no one can control them at all.
A kingdom like this, it is almost the same as the subjugation of a country.
Even if the Great Jin does not destroy him, in a few decades, he will also bring his own annihilation.
Since they are all perished, there is no difference in the early decades.
Zhang Hui's eyes were bright, and he scolded even more vigorously. He scolded the Goguryeo monarchs and ministers according to the scriptures. The Goguryeo king was so angry that his chest hurt and he almost vomited blood.
Seeing that his fingers were shaking, Zhang Hui closed his mouth. He was also afraid that he would pay for his life if he was mad at him.
Zhang Emblem was thrown into the Heavenly Prison again. Fortunately, he was not beaten, but he had less food to eat.
The fifth prince couldn't even support him, after all, there was a wall between them.
However, Zhang Hui was more certain after taking this trip. He quietly said to the fifth prince: "His Royal Highness, our majesty has gone outside the city, the inner city should be surrounded, can you think of a way to pass on some news? go out?"
Prince Gao's spirit was lifted, and he was almost lying on the wall, "It's true or not, how do you know?"
He was also brought up to talk, how could he not know?
Zhang Hui affirmed: "Really, if you don't believe me, you can find someone to ask."
The siege of the army is so big that it can't be a secret. I'm afraid the yamen in the prison will know it. Unfortunately, he has no money, no connections, and no mercy. This matter can only be seen by the fifth prince.
The badge slapped his mouth, Bai Shan asked him to bring the fifth prince of the high school really right, a person is much more useful than a jade pendant.
After all, jade pendants are dead, and people are alive. As long as you hold the fifth prince firmly, there are infinite possibilities.
The fifth prince of Gao started to make a noise next door. After all, he was the son of the king. The yamen in the prison did not dare to neglect him. Even if they knew it was fake, they had to ask questions.
The emperor made arrangements, and the four-way army went all the way to besiege the city one day. Today is Gao Zhi. Since he is here, he must give them a chance to meet.
So the second prince of the high school persuaded everyone to surrender under the city gate, and the soldiers, officials and people in the city were stunned.
Although I have long heard that the second prince treasonous, there is still a big difference between hearing it and seeing it.
The impact on the people in the inner city, especially the common people, cannot be expressed in words, and even the dignitaries have doubts about the future of the kingdom.
"The second prince has always been shrewd, even he chose to surrender..."
"The fifth prince has also surrendered. Even if he is thrown into a prison, he is unwilling to return to the royal court, and he will follow the great Jin wholeheartedly."
"Is it really the time?"
"I'm not sure, now most of Goguryeo is in the hands of others."
"Isn't there Jian'an City?"
"Jian'an City is already an isolated city. Although the Jin Kingdom has never attacked it, but it has conquered the surrounding cities, can Jian'an City be able to survive on its own?"
"That fellow Lu Min shouldn't stick to Jian'an City. If he sends troops to help Anshi City, maybe..."
"Hmph, the reinforcements around the city of Anshi, plus the local garrison of nearly 250,000 people, are not broken yet, and even the second prince defending the city has surrendered."
Just in the midst of this discussion, someone could not help but quietly went to the Heavenly Prison to contact the Fifth Prince.
Of course, the enemy would not go there in person at the moment, but bought the yamen to send some food to the fifth prince.
So the fifth prince chewed the steamed bun and ate a letter.
Fifth Prince: …
He spat out the paper and unfolded it with disgust...
Yin Li entered the house with a small bamboo tube, "Your Majesty, there is news from the domestic city."
He opened the bamboo tube and took out the roll paper inside and served it.
The emperor opened it and glanced at it, then handed it over to him, "It's Zhang Hui's letter, they are now locked in the Heavenly Prison, and the Gao Clan wants to talk about peace."
Yin Li said, "The letter of credentials has been sent, but Goguryeo has yet to reply."
The emperor sneered: "It's only been a day, and they definitely didn't make up their minds so quickly."
Yin Li asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to attack the city to scare them?"
After thinking about it, the emperor shook his head, "It's just snowed, the weather is cold, and the city gate is easy to freeze. Siege at this time is very bad for us. If it's just fright, it's not enough to make us pay such a big price. Don't attack."
He paused and said, "Let each army choose some people to scold and fight. It's best to scold people."
Yin Li: "...Can't you scold it?"
"Let the people from the Ministry of Rites come up," the emperor said, "Isn't there still several people from the Ministry of Rites following along? There are also those civil servants. If you have nothing to do, go for a walk, and when the people finish scolding, go to preach the righteousness. Why did we attack Goguryeo? Jin has the right to persuade them to surrender."
Yin Li responded with a "yes".
Therefore, in addition to taking care of the follow-up of the captured city, the civil officials had to go to the city gate in shifts to persuade them to surrender.
Some people's voices are not loud enough, and they have to pick a clever soldier to speak, which is very tiring.
See you tomorrow
