On the muddy ground, as the horses' hooves stepped across, a little splash of muddy water suddenly appeared, and the horses' hooves passed by, followed closely by iron hooves one after another.
Under the gate of Daliang City.
Bai Yan is riding a war horse, and behind him are all the generals of the Qin State. In the past, they were the generals leading the army, but now it seems that they are all under Bai Yan's command.
Bai Yan looked at the Wei clan members kneeling on the ground in front of the Daliang city gate, all wearing white silk ribbons. He was a little confused, especially since Bai Yan had seen Wei Jia before, but now in front of the city gate, he did not see the Wei king. False appears.
"Wei Wei! Lead all the officials of the Wei State, hold the royal seal and the map, and ask the King of Qin to surrender. From now on, the Wei State will no longer have a national title. I would like to be a minister of Qin. All Wei is the land of Qin. I sincerely ask the King of Qin to protect us Wei people. !”
In full view of everyone, the elderly Wei Wei knelt on the ground, facing Bai Yan on horseback, and spoke, then ignored the muddy ground and knocked his forehead on it.
this moment.
All the Wei soldiers on top of the Wei city, as well as all the Wei soldiers and palace guards outside the city, began to throw away their sharp swords and long swords. Even the Wei flags fell left and right and fell to the ground. Later, it was soaked in muddy water.
This scene caught the eyes of all Qin generals, and made all Qin soldiers clearly see that there was no longer a threat to all Wei soldiers, and there was no longer a Wei flag fluttering in the wind.
At this time, all the people of Qin looked happy.
After all, they all witnessed with their own eyes that the Wei State, once the overlord of the Central Plains, was completely destroyed at this moment, and they were all participants.
For these Qin soldiers and even generals, the experience before them will become something they can brag about for a lifetime, and they will never forget this scene until they die.
"Where is King Wei?"
Bai Yan dismounted from his horse, and followed step by step by his close followers, he came to a group of officials and clan members who were kneeling on the ground, staring at the dignitaries of the Wei Kingdom in front of them.
At this time, the cronies beside Bai Yan came forward to the Wei woman who was holding the royal seal and the map, took the royal seal and the map, and then turned around and stood behind Bai Yan.
"General! My king was infected by the palace attendants because the river water entered Daliang. He eventually fell ill and died of illness!"
Wei Wei raised his hands to Bai Yan and said.
Following Wei Wei's words, behind the officials, several eunuchs carried a coffin. With the officials giving way, they stopped in front of Bai Yan, and then gently placed the coffin on the ground.
Bai Yan glanced at Wei Wei and Wei Gaoyi in the distance, and walked to the coffin.
When he saw that the person with a black face in the coffin was indeed Wei Jia, whom he had met and had an enmity with in Zhao State, Bai Yan's eyes were a little complicated. Bai Yan had thought that his enmity with Wei Jia would not be so easy to resolve when he had enmity in Zhao State. Yes, it will be no trouble if we meet again in the future.
But he never thought that when he finally saw Wei Jia again, Wei Jia was already a corpse.
Did King Wei really die of illness?
When Bai Yan was in Linzi, Qi State, his job was to collect corpses.
Linzi is the capital of Qi State, far away from the war. Most people who die usually die in various ways. Bai Yan has personally touched them one by one and understood them in detail.
Looking at Wei Jia's body, with a faint trace on his nostrils, Bai Yan was almost 100% sure that Wei Jia was poisoned to death, or it could be said that he died for the benefit of all the powerful people in the Wei state.
In the face of interests, even a king is like this...
"Bai Yan followed the order of the King of Qin and led the troops to attack Wei. From now on, the Kingdom of Wei will be destroyed, and there will be no more Kingdom of Wei in the world!"
Bai Yan looked away from the coffin, took out Zhan Lu, held Zhan Lu high in one hand, looked at the hundreds of officials, looked at all the Wei soldiers, and shouted.
All the officials, clan members, and soldiers of the Wei State who were looked at by Bai Yan did not dare to look at Bai Yan at this moment, and all lowered their heads. Following Bai Yan's words, it seemed that all the Wei people were distracted. The strength is average.
It was naturally impossible for Bai Yan to pursue Wei Jian's death, and Bai Yan had a hunch that he might be involved with the corpse family.
"Yan Mao, immediately ordered people to gather all the swords, bows and crossbows in the city. Yang Yan gathered all the soldiers in the city and ordered them to remove their armor and go to the camp. According to the orders of Qin soldiers, he immediately ordered people to inform the king that we have captured the beam. !”
Bai Yan ordered.
Weapons are the most directly related to combat power, and food is the best weapon to quell the unrest among Wei soldiers at the moment.
"promise!"
"promise!"
After listening to the voices of Yanmao and Yang Yan receiving the order, Bai Yan handed Zhan Lu to his confidants, walked up to Wei Wei again, and helped Wei Wei up with both hands.
"Bai Yan has always heard of Lao Lao, Bai Yan has met Lao Lao!"
Bai Yan waited for Wei Wei to stand up, took a step back, saluted Wei Wei with both hands, and bent very low.
This move was not only a show of respect to Wei Wei, but also a show of respect to the Wei clan and the civil and military officials of the Wei state. Bai Yan knew very well that in the past, these dignitaries of the Wei state were all superiors. Although the country has perished, they are all trying to preserve their glory. The wealth and family had just willingly left the city to surrender to the Qin Dynasty. At this time, any move, whether good or bad, would have several times the effect.
Therefore, the initial action was to inform the Wei people as a general of the Qin State that the Qin State had destroyed the Wei State. The current salute was to tell the Wei people that he, Bai Yan, represented the Qin State and still respected all Wei people. , respect the Wei clan in front of you.
"Pass my order and tell the people in the city that the Qin army's camps are all equipped with food specially given by the king for disaster relief!"
Bai Yan was lifted up by Wei Wei, who kept saying "I can't do anything", and then he offered his hands to Wei Wei kindly again, and then turned to give instructions to Feng Nian, Gui and others.
at this time.
Whether it was the clan members of the Wei State who had already stood up, or the civil and military officials of the Wei State, they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Bai Yan's actions and orders. Compared with the pale face and dazed look on his face when he left the city at the beginning, he even The difference in the crumbling appearance is extremely conspicuous.
Whether it was Wei Gaoyi or Zhihe, who had not yet met Bai Yan, it was as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and his whole body was no longer so tense.
"promise!"
"promise!!"
After hearing Bai Yan's order, Feng Nian and Gui bowed their hands to Bai Yan to accept the order. Then they led the Qin army officers and soldiers, bypassing the civil and military officials of the Wei state, and entered Daliang City.
"Changping-kun!"
Bai Yan heard the sound of horse hooves, turned his head and saw Lord Changping approaching, and raised his hands in salute.
At this moment, although there was a smile on Chang Pingjun's cheeks that were beginning to show signs of gaining weight, if you look carefully, the smile seemed vaguely unnatural.
"I've met Mr. Changping!"
When Wei Wei saw Lord Changping, he also raised his hands and saluted.
However, compared with the way he hurriedly helped Bai Yan, Wei Wei's smile towards Lord Changping was a little stiff at this moment. Wei Wei also knew that Lord Changping had sent envoys to Daliang several times before, but no matter what Lord Changping did, Wei Wei and everyone In the eyes of the Wei people, they all knew who Lord Changping was from Ying Zheng, and who had been secretly helping the Chu State to attack their Wei State.
Therefore, the comparison is with Bai Yan, a native of Qi, plus Bai Yan blocked the canal and stopped the water several times, as well as other actions just now.
In this comparison, it is difficult for anyone to have the slightest favorable impression of Mr. Changping, let alone the idea of getting close to him.
"Mr. Changping, I have met Mr. Wei!"
Lord Changping returned the courtesy with his hands raised, not to mention his tone, just by looking at the expressions of the other members of the Wei clan, Lord Changping could feel the resistance to him from these dignitaries and nobles of the Wei state.
Thinking of this, Mr. Changping felt gloomy in his heart.
He had naturally seen Bai Yan's actions just now. Even he had never thought that when he personally destroyed Wei and all the dignitaries in the Wei Kingdom, and those who had been in high positions in the past, all knelt down to Bai Yan, Bai Yan actually There is no complacency at all, but every move is done with courtesy.
No matter how steady Mr. Changping is by nature, he couldn't help but wonder at this moment, which clan in Qi State Bai Yan came from, who was his teacher, which famous person could teach such a disciple, and why Qi State has such a great talent as Bai Yan? But want to let it go to Qin?
Changping Lord has experienced so many things in his life. It is not that he has never led an army, nor has he never seen those generals. After the siege, he looked proud and complacent, especially after seizing several cities in a row, he looked at everyone with arrogance. eyes.
Almost without exception, whether it was Zeng Baiyu or even his younger brother Chang Wenjun, after breaking the city, their eyes looked as if no opponent could stop them anymore, as if they didn't care about everyone.
And now.
The one Bai Yan attacked was the main beam of Wei State! Known as the strongest in the world!
Bai Yan captured Daliang without spending a single soldier. Even in this battle, he directly destroyed the Wei State. He personally led the troops and destroyed a whole country!
As a result, Bai Yan's behavior just now was really shocking.
At this time, Lord Changping was full of joy and had already thought of a way to evacuate Bai Yan. Otherwise, with Bai Yan in Daliang trying to win over the powerful people of Wei in front of him, the chance would be slim.
"Mr. Changping, enter the city!"
When Bai Yan's words came, Changping Jun turned his head and looked at Bai Yan's harmless appearance. Changping Jun showed a kind expression on the surface, but he was full of fear in his heart.
Fortunately, Bai Yan was from Qi and not a descendant of the Bai family. Fortunately, Bai Yan didn't know what happened to Gao Nu in Shangjun.
"This trip is based on the king's order to deal with the affairs of the people of Wei State. General Bai Yan will enter the city first! Qi, we need to count the number of people in the city and the grain and grain reserves to avoid more trouble!"
Lord Changping raised his hands and said, not planning to enter the city with Bai Yan.
When they were at the camp, Bai Yan had already said that he had decided to go to Surabaya. Lord Changping was not in a hurry now. Moreover, this time Bai Yan was following the orders of Ying Zheng to attack Wei State. Everything was decided by the commander Bai Yan. When he arrived This is just to help Bai Yan appease the people of Wei State. There is nothing he can do if Bai Yan is in the city.
It’s better to take care of the business first and make time for later.
"In this case, Bai Yan is in the city, preparing a banquet and waiting for Lord Changping!"
Bai Yan saw that Lord Changping had to deal with important matters first, so he raised his hand and said, since Lord Changping has to deal with important matters, there is no rush to let Lord Changping enter the city together.
"General, please enter the city!"
When Wei Wei heard what Bai Yan said and saw Lord Changping returning the courtesy, he cupped his hands and said to Bai Yan, turning sideways to give way.
Bai Yan nodded, returned the salute to Wei Wei, and motioned for them to enter Daliang together.
Lord Changping stood there and watched the two people leave, pondering for a few moments, and finally fixed his eyes on Wei Wei's back. After a long time, he turned around and led the people to the lower camp.
Inside Daliang City.
The Qin soldiers were leading the Wei soldiers out of the city. At the top of the city, the Qin soldiers were holding black flags with the word Qin in their hands, replacing the Wei flags and erected them on the top of the city.
Bai Yan was riding a horse and walking on the street, looking at the Wei people in Daliang City. He felt a little guilty. After all, Bai Yan's blood was not cold yet. But looking behind him, when he saw the Qin soldiers under his command who were leading the people out of the city, Bai Yan felt a little relieved because of his vigorous appearance and the appearance of all the generals under his command wearing clothes and armor.
Inside the Daliang Palace.
Accompanied by Wei Wei and other clan members, Bai Yan dismounted and entered King Wei's palace. In front of the main hall, Bai Yan looked at the dogs that had been kept in captivity by Wei Jie. They were actually roaring at everyone, with ferocious fangs. The head seemed to want to tear Bai Yan and others apart.
"I heard that these Wei dogs were carefully selected by the King of Wei, who trained the dogs with humans and provided humans for the dogs to compete for food. Therefore, merchants all over the world are proud to spend a lot of money to get a Wei dog!"
Bai Yan looked at the dogs and raised his hand.
"Shoot all these dogs and give them to the people of Wei to eat!"
Bai Yan ordered.
Behind Bai Yan, Jiu nodded when he heard the words, turned around, and asked the soldiers behind him to bring the crossbows into the hall.
In an instant, the Wei dogs, which were still aggressive and howling at everyone, were shot down by the Qin army soldiers with their crossbows after they entered the hall. They all started screaming, and their ferocious roars suddenly turned into whimpering sounds of fear. The Wei dog curled its tail and ran away, wishing it could run faster.
The well-trained soldiers chased and chopped down with bows, crossbows and sharp swords, and Wei Dog continued to die miserably. After a while, Wei Dog's frightened moans became less and less, and finally disappeared.
Wei Wei listened to the barking of the dogs disappearing in the hall, saw the dogs covered in blood being lifted out one by one by Qin soldiers, and quickly looked at Bai Yan.
"Daliang is the capital of the Wei Kingdom. Several generations of Wei kings have built walls, but Bai Yan was able to flood the city gates with water. From now on, there will be no talk of solidifying the city!"
Bai Yan turned around, stood in front of the palace, looked at Daliang City outside the palace, and said softly.
Then, Bai Yan turned around and looked at Wei Wei.
"Lao Wei, before, Bai Yan destroyed Daliang and diverted water from the two rivers. Floods were everywhere in Daliang City. Now that the Wei Kingdom has been destroyed, the remnants of the floods are still there. I may still need Lao Lao's help in many matters in Daliang!"
Bai Yan raised his hand and saluted Wei Wei.
"Where is it! General Bai Yan does not doubt that Wei Wei has perished. Wei Wei will naturally serve General Bai Yan wholeheartedly. I only hope that the general can be in Xianyang in the future and say a few good words for us in front of the King of Qin!"
Wei Wei was quite old. Although Bai Yan spoke very cryptically, there was no way he could hide it from Wei Wei's eyes.
Bai Yan was telling him that if Daliang was flooded the first time, it could be flooded the second time. As long as he didn't have the thoughts of the old clans like Han and Zhao, Bai Yan could not immobilize the wealth of the powerful people in the city, and he could also let the clan take advantage of the opportunity. By expressing his surrender to Ying Zheng, he could also gain favor from the noble families and famous families in Daliang City.
Think of this.
Wei Wei looked at Bai Yan who was giving up the benefits step by step, and felt grateful in his heart. Even Bai Yan's attack on Wei State could not be blamed on Bai Yan in the eyes of Wei Wei at his age.
After all, Bai Yan was originally in the Chu State and fought against the Chu State. The story that Bai Yan was almost assassinated by the Chu people also spread a lot. Later, the Chu State and Lord Changping persuaded Ying Zheng to attack the Wei State. Only then did Bai Yan have to stop fighting. The observation of Chu State returned to Xianyang.
In the end, Ying Zheng gave the order for Bai Yan to lead the army to attack Wei. As a minister, Bai Yan naturally could not disobey the order.
All Wei officials knew what happened when they came to Daliang...
Thinking that even without Bai Yan, Ying Zheng would have sent other Qin generals to lead troops to attack Qi. At that time, I was afraid that they would not end so well.
Thinking that Bai Yan was from Qi, Wei Wei looked at Bai Yan now and became even more friendly.
"It's natural!"
Bai Yan looked at Wei Wei with a smile on his face after he handed over his hand, and nodded seriously, promising that he would definitely speak kindly to Ying Zheng and would not forget what he had promised.
……………………
Because of the news about Jiuding, Bai Yan has to leave Daliang immediately. Bai Yan is also worried that if he delays, he will be blamed and criticized.
So that night, Bai Yan directly held a celebration banquet.
The generals with the rank of five or above were all invited to the main hall of the King's Palace of Wei, where they drank wine and ate meat, enjoyed the female singers and dancers unique to the Wei State, and listened to the guzheng tunes of the Wei State.
Since the soldiers were not allowed to attack the city, but the beams were captured by flooding, almost all the generals looked very relaxed and comfortable without any casualties. This feeling was like receiving a huge achievement. , and you don’t have to make any efforts or take risks.
Therefore, during the whole banquet, every general was very happy, and their voices became much louder after drinking several glasses of wine. Qin State respects the right. During the banquet, Bai Yan and Lord Changping were sitting at the wooden table on the right side of the hall, drinking wine and chatting.
The throne in the main hall was where all the kings of Wei sat at that time. Even if Wei fell, Bai Yan and Lord Changping would not sit in that position.
During the banquet, Bai Yan was the one who was toasted the most and most frequently. As the general in charge of the army, Bai Yan captured Daliang and destroyed Wei without any casualties. Not to mention the generals in Yan and Hexi. Yanmao, Yu He and others also kept toasting to Bai Yan with their red faces and eyes full of respect. The tone in Bai Yan's words was one of admiration.
After three rounds of drinking.
Bai Yan was swaying behind the wooden table. There were already wine bottles on the floor next to him. Looking at the female musicians dancing to the tunes of the guzheng under countless candle lights, Bai Yan kept trying to raise his head and looked into the hall with tired eyes. All the generals were drinking and boasting, and Bai Yan couldn't help but smile.
While shaking, Bai Yan quickly turned his head as his throat felt nauseated. After trying to move a few steps, he knelt on the ground and vomited.
"General!"
Zhang's face was red from drinking. When he saw Bai Yan vomiting and looked at the wine bottles on the ground, he didn't know that Bai Yan had drunk too much. But when he was about to get up, he was suddenly stopped by a hand.
After seeing the person who blocked him, he stopped moving without permission.
Feeling that his chest finally felt much better after vomiting, Bai Yan felt a hand pat his back. He turned his head and saw that it was Lord Changping.
"Thank you, Changping-kun!"
Bai Yanhan laughed and wiped the water from his mouth with his sleeve. He looked at Mr. Changping with a grateful expression. Then he seemed to have thought of something and quickly grabbed Mr. Changping's hand and patted his own.
"Yan, I will go to Surabaya tomorrow to look for the tripod. Here in Daliang City, I will entrust it to Lord Changping..."
Bai Yan looked at Lord Changping in front of him with hazy eyes and paused.
"Mr. Changping must be very careful. Wei will be destroyed and people's hearts will be unstable!"
Bai Yan turned his head and squinted his eyes. After seeing that there was no one around him, he looked at Mr. Changping and whispered instructions.
Upon seeing this, Mr. Changping showed a smile on his mature cheeks and nodded slowly, as if he knew what Bai Yan meant. However, before he could speak, he looked at Bai Yan who turned around and was about to vomit again. Mr. Changping turned his head and looked at Bai Yan behind him. There were wine bottles all around the wooden table. Thinking of the wine Bai Yan drank just now, Chang Pingjun knew that Bai Yan was really drunk.
So Changping Lord called two maids over and asked the maids to take Bai Yan back to his house to rest.
"Wei will be destroyed, and people's hearts will be unstable!"
Lord Changping watched Bai Yan being helped away, looked at Bai Yan's back, savored these words carefully, and then couldn't help laughing.
Sure enough, with Bai Yan's stability, he would definitely be wary of the Daliang nobles of Wei State. In this case, there was no need for him to worry about not having a chance.
And since he has such thoughts, when Bai Yan goes to Surabaya, he will secretly give instructions to his cronies who stay in Daliang!
A bit more routine.
