Chapter 894 Fake Surrender
When Gu Nanxi saw his flushed face, she felt a headache coming on.
Wang Buxi is a serious ancient man, how could he want to be a DINK? !
If it were someone else, if they wanted to be a DINK, they would just let them be a DINK.
But Wang Buxi was so capable. If he didn't have more children, wouldn't it be a waste of his excellent genes? Wouldn't Dayun Dynasty lose several excellent cattle and horses?
Thinking about the fertility rate of China in later generations, Gu Nanxi couldn't help but reflect on whether he had exploited Wang Buxi too much, causing him to lose the desire to reproduce?
With this slight sense of guilt, Gu Nanxi did not ask Wang Buxi to get out, but asked gently: "Why can't it be opened?"
Wang Buxi shook the document in his hand and said with a smile: "Goryeo has surrendered."
Gu Nanxi’s expression froze. Surrender so quickly?
Wang Buxi said: "Wang Jian has submitted to our Yunzhou and paid tribute every year."
The conditions Wang Jian promised were better than those offered by Goryeo to the Great Zhou, and his attitude was also more humble.
It seems that Gu Yuntian and Guo Kai really hurt them.
Gu Nanxi chuckled: "My dear Wang, you really tried your best to avoid getting married."
"Ah? I didn't..." Wang Bushi was surprised.
Gu Nanxi didn't let him continue to explain, but smiled and said: "Lord Wang, where did the Goryeo surrender letter come from? Why haven't I seen it?"
ah?
Wang Buxi met Gu Nanxi's gaze, and it was like a flash of lightning passing through his mind, and he instantly understood what His Majesty meant.
He patted his forehead and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty is worthy of your sharp eyes. Nothing can be hidden from you. There is indeed no letter of surrender from Goryeo. This is just a letter from Yunzhou asking for peace."
The two looked into each other's eyes and smiled like foxes.
…
Wang Jian straightened his wrinkled collar and looked around.
The second prince who was sent to Xijing has turned into a handful of ashes.
In the huge palace, the bodies of princes and concubines were lying all over the place.
Some were forced to commit suicide by Wang Jian, and some wanted to escape but were killed by Wang Jian himself.
They all had their eyes open, looking up at the sky with their eyes wide open.
Wang Jian staggered out of the palace with a sword in hand, but was tripped by a corpse and fell on his butt.
Wang Jian looked at it angrily, and it took him a long time to recognize that the bloated corpse was his eldest son.
After the fall of Xijing, he again proposed to surrender to Dayun, but was killed by Wang Jian with a single sword.
The anger in Wang Jian's heart was burning like a raging fire.
The reason why he maintained such an arrogant attitude towards Dayun was that he believed that he always had a way out, which was to surrender to Dayun.
As long as you surrender and show a more humble attitude, the people from the Central Plains will leave here.
Of course, Wang Jian didn’t really want to surrender, he just wanted to pretend to surrender.
When Goryeo gains time and recovers, it can sow discord between Dayun and Dazhou, causing them to fight each other, and Goryeo will benefit from it.
But……
"Why did it fail? Why don't you believe it?!" Wang Jian's eyes were red.
There is definitely no problem with my plan, it’s simply because the people of Dayun are too vicious, worse than beasts!
Wang Jian got up, stumbled out of the palace, and was instantly shocked by the scene before him.
Kaifeng has turned into a black city, without any trace of its former grandeur.
The air was filled with the burnt smell after the fire, and there was also a nauseating smell.
He fell to the ground, his hands dug into the charred earth.
The Yunzhou soldiers who came to search took one look at him and recognized him as King Wang Jian of Goryeo, and immediately went to report to the second prince Gu Yunting.
When Gu Yunting and Song Shoujie rushed over, they saw this once heroic general who destroyed Silla and Baekje walking out in a daze.
The Yunzhou soldiers wanted to stop him but were stopped by Gu Yunting.
Gu Yunting and Song Shoujie followed behind Wang Jian, letting him take a look at the last of Kaijing.
There were dead bodies everywhere, some human, some animal, and a few black figures lying on the ground wailing in pain.
Those that were once white, red, and yellow have all turned black.
Wang Jian shouted towards the sky, his voice weak and pale, like a lone goose separated from the flock or an old lion on the verge of death.
"You have turned Kaifeng into a living hell. You will be punished!"
The air of the peninsula was filled with ashes and the rivers were filled with corpses.
The devastated city, the thunder and fire like a punishment from heaven, the entire peninsula was shaking under Dayun's feet.
They paid the price of their lives and felt the power of Dayun.
They finally remembered that the Tatars, who were once invincible on the grassland, were also hunted down and killed by Dayun.
The moment he stepped down from the throne, Wang Jian was no longer the high and mighty King of Goryeo, but an old man who had lost his home, his people, and everything.
His eyes, covered with a layer of white mist, turned mechanically to Gu Yunting, as if he was asking the Second Prince of Dayun in front of him, or as if he was asking through him, the Emperor of Dayun in Kyoto.
"Why? We have already surrendered, why are you still attacking us?"
Gu Yunting put his hand on the scabbard and kept a safe distance from Wang Jian.
A'niang once told him that many people died because of talking too much, and the closer you are to victory, the more careful you have to be.
"The apparent reason is that you Koreans are cunning and fickle, and you are treacherous. Your so-called surrender may be a false surrender."
Wang Jian's expression froze: "What's the actual reason?"
Gu Yunting: "We in Dayun have never thought of leaving Gaoli behind."
"You have committed so many murders on this land. Aren't you afraid of the people's will? I remember Emperor Taizong of Tang once said that the people can carry you, but they can also overturn you."
Gu Yunting clicked his tongue twice and said coldly, "We only need this piece of land, why should we care about your people? Without you, others will naturally come here."
There are so many ethnic groups living in the ice and snow. Do they like ice and snow? No, they just can't find suitable fertile land.
Although Goryeo is mountainous and barren, the climate is still acceptable, and there will always be people coming to open up the wasteland.
At worst, Dayun will give tax exemptions to those who open up new land.
Wang Jian laughed again, tears streaming down his cheeks. "I am not as cruel as you. Come on, cut off my head with your knife. I am King Gao Li, and only you are qualified to take my life."
He raised his neck, waiting for Gu Yunting to step forward and kill the king.
Gu Yunting thought about it and decided to fulfill his last wish.
So, he took the Zhuge Crossbow from the guard and pointed it at Wang Jian: "Zhuge Crossbow is one of our Yunzhou's weapons. It won't be an insult to you if you die at its hands."
clang!
Before Wang Jian could say anything, he was shot into a hedgehog.
Gu Yunting waited for a while, and only walked forward after making sure that he was dead.
Sure enough, a dagger was found in Wang Jian's arms.
Gu Yunting snorted disdainfully. This kind of drama has almost worn out the novel section of Yunzhou Weekly. Don't even think about fooling him!
