The Gongsun family launched a rebellion and must be severely punished before they can warn the world.
Therefore, Yang Ling would not be merciful and directly ordered Gongsun Yuan's entire family to be executed.
As for Sun Zong and others who surrendered on their own initiative, Yang Ling did not embarrass them and continued to retain their power.
As a result, Xiangping City quickly settled down in just a few days.
Xiangping City.
Yang Ling sat on the seat that originally belonged to Gongsun Yuan and looked at Sun Zong and Bei Yan who were standing in the hall.
"Although the rebel Gongsun Yuan is dead, the foreign barbarians led by Goguryeo have not been punished."
"Do you have any ideas?"
Sun Zong was stunned for a moment and said cautiously,
"These foreigners have always been disobedient and extremely ambitious."
"If you are strong, you will be harassed; if you are weak, you will be humbled."
"Therefore, my subordinates boldly suggest that Your Highness send troops to attack them, so that they can know how powerful I am, Wei Dynasty."
This Sun Zong is quite talented.
No wonder in history, Gongsun Yuan would send him to visit Sun Quan to join forces.
Yang Ling nodded appreciatively,
"Sir's views coincide with Gu's."
"You two have lived in Liaodong for so long, you might as well talk about the situation in Liaodong."
Seeing Sun Zong being in the limelight in front of Yang Ling, Bei Yan on the side quickly answered,
"The general knows this best and can explain it to His Highness."
Then he told Yang Ling everything about the situation in the Liaodong Peninsula.
After taking control of Liaodong, the Gongsun family was determined to forge ahead and continuously conquered cities and territories.
In the south of the original Lelang County, Liaodong gained a large amount of territory.
So the Gongsun family separated many villages and counties from Lelang County, and together with the new land, established Daifang County.
To the northeast of Liaodong County are the two countries of Fuyu and Goguryeo.
To the east of Lelang County and Daifang County is the Haoqi Kingdom.
As for the southern tip of the peninsula, there are three countries: Mahan, Benhan, and Tatsuhan.
"Countries such as Haoqiu and Mahan are actually nothing to worry about."
"As long as we can capture Goguryeo, other small countries will naturally not be a problem."
Bei Yan smiled.
"I see."
Yang Ling nodded, touched his chin, and said thoughtfully,
"Although Goguryeo rebelled with Gongsun Yuan, God has the virtue of good life, so Gu Ye can give them a chance."
"Mr. Sun, please send someone to Goguryeo immediately and inform Dongchuan Throne Palace."
"He must bring his family to Xiangping City and admit his mistake to Gu on his knees."
"Goguryeo must bear the cost of the Wei army's suppression of the rebellion."
"The Goguryeo people are no longer allowed to use their own writing. From now on, they must learn from our writing and culture of the Wei Dynasty."
"In addition, from now on, we must pay tribute to Wei in money and jewelry every year."
"Like specialty products, except Korean ginseng, I don't need anything else."
"..."
"If not, don't blame Gufa for being angry!"
Sun Zong became more and more frightened as he listened to Yang Ling's conditions.
These conditions can be described as a loss of power and an insult to the country.
As long as Mortal Palace has some brains, it is impossible to agree.
"Your Highness, these conditions... are too harsh. I'm afraid the palace will not agree."
"Won't you agree?"
Yang Ling sneered,
"That's the best. I don't intend to get him to agree."
"If he doesn't agree, I can just go and grab it!"
Yang Ling came from later generations and naturally knew what kind of virtue these foreigners from the Liaodong Peninsula were like.
As Sun Zong said, these foreign barbarians are just like the Huns, Xianbei and other barbarians. They are all people who are harassed by enemies when they are strong, and humble when they are weak.
Before Yang Ling came to put down Gongsun Yuan's rebellion this time, he had made up his mind to get rid of Goguryeo and other foreign barbarians.
"Subordinate... take orders!"
Seeing Yang Ling's resolute attitude, Sun Zong had no choice but to agree and immediately arranged for envoys to go to Goguryeo.
…
The capital of Goguryeo.
Marudo Mountain Castle.
In the palace, Wei Gong drank wine and looked at the envoy sent by Sun Zong with a gloomy face.
"These...are the requirements of His Highness King Qi. I hope the King of Goguryeo can consider them carefully."
The envoy also knew that Yang Ling's conditions were too harsh, so he was careful when speaking.
"Very good! If we go by what Yang Ling said, wouldn't we, Goguryeo, become a lackey of your Han people?"
Wei Gong laughed angrily and waved his hand,
"Come here, drag this man down to me and chop him down!"
As soon as these words came out, in addition to the envoy himself, there was another middle-aged man in the hall who was shocked.
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
This person is Goguryeo's Da Du Lu, who is equivalent to the prime minister of the country.
"Why is Da Dui Lu opposed?"
Wei Gong said a little impatiently.
"Although the conditions of the Wei people are too harsh, the two armies are fighting and the envoys will not be killed."
"Once the envoy is killed, it means that we will fight to the death with the Wei people!"
Those who are rich have to come and persuade.
"so what?!"
Wei Gong sneered and said,
"If Yang Ling doesn't take the Goguryeo people seriously, why should I give them a good look?"
"Even Gongsun Yuan is no match for Cao Wei, so how can our country of Goguryeo defeat Cao Wei?"
Those who are rich will come to persuade each other hard.
"That's Gongsun Yuan's trash!"
Wei Gong snorted coldly.
In the early years, due to the strength of Liaodong County, he was willing to compromise.
But after such a long period of development, Goguryeo's national power has gradually become stronger.
Correspondingly, the position palace also breeds ambition.
Even if Gongsun Yuan does not die, Goguryeo will break with him sooner or later.
Now that Goguryeo has finally gotten rid of Gongsun Yuan, how can it agree to Yang Ling's harsh conditions?
"What are you still doing? Drag this person down and chop him down!"
Wei Gong said angrily.
Several guards rushed in and dragged the envoy sent by Sun Zong down.
A moment later, a bloody head was brought in.
Wei Gong nodded with satisfaction and ordered,
"Send this head back to Yang Ling!"
After saying this, he walked away.
Pei Zhe stood there for a long time before he smiled bitterly and murmured to himself,
"That's all, I'm afraid there will never be Goguryeo again!"
…
When he received the head sent back by someone from the palace, Yang Ling was not furious.
After all, he had expected such an outcome, so he asked Sun Zong to arrange the messenger.
"This is a palace chaoyong, Shi Zai, Bo Yue and Zhong Gong. I will leave this matter to you three brothers."
"We must let the Goguryeo people know how powerful I, Cao Wei, are, do you understand?"
A cold light flashed in Yang Ling's eyes and he ordered in a deep voice.
"Teacher, please don't worry!"
The three of them said in unison.
After a day of preparation, the three brothers took the rested Wei army and immediately headed north.
However, as soon as they left, news came from behind.
It turned out that the imperial palace sent people to persuade Haoqiu and Sanhan to form a coalition and attack Daifang County from the south in order to echo Goguryeo.
"This palace is not an idiot. He knows that with the power of Goguryeo, he is no match for me, the Wei Dynasty."
Yang Ling sneered and said,
"It's just a pity that he is a little clever, but not much."
