At this moment, Sepuus felt the humiliation in his heart reaching its peak. As the Pope of Roman Christianity, he took advantage of Victoria's capture and finally took control of the military and political power, achieving control of both the military, politics and religion.
Now, he knelt in front of Lu Xuan in embarrassment and begged for mercy, leaving his life and death in Lu Xuan's control.
This was extremely uncomfortable for Sepuus.
But this is reality.
Sepuus felt very uneasy, because after he shouted, there was no movement in the camp. Lu Xuan did not answer, nor did he come out to accept his surrender.
Sepuus waited for a while, but when he saw that there was still no movement in the camp, he loudly said again: "Your Majesty the Ming Emperor, the sinner Sepuus led his troops to surrender, and I beg your Majesty the Emperor to accept it."
Lu Xuan then said: "Sepuus, do you really want to surrender and serve me and the Ming Dynasty?"
Sepuus was in high spirits.
Finally answered.
Lu Xuan's willingness to speak means that he can surrender and save his life. Without this, Lu Xuan would not accept his surrender, but wanted to kill him, and Sepuus would not have the slightest chance.
Sepuus said without hesitation: "Reply to Your Majesty, I am truly willing to surrender and serve the Ming Dynasty without any hesitation. I will obey His Majesty the Emperor's orders in everything."
Lu Xuan said: "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Sepuus answered loudly.
He was thinking in his mind that he didn't know the Ming Dynasty's Mandarin, so now he relied on the translators around him. In order to protect one's own interests and maintain one's power, one must quickly learn Ming Dynasty Mandarin.
Only in this way can it thrive forever.
Otherwise, he cannot maintain his interests.
After Sepuus stood up, he stood still because there was no order from Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan looked at Zhang Liao and ordered: "Zhang Liao, take people to take over all the prisoners. Take control of all this group of troops."
"Here!"
Zhang Liao answered immediately.
He took people out to control the Roman soldiers, and also brought Sepuus to Lu Xuan. At this time, Lu Xuancai ordered the army to march into Constantinople, and the army arrived in the city. Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and Chen Dao quickly arranged their troops and took over the four-sided city defense, the arsenal, military camps, etc., and then took control of the imperial city.
In fact, the imperial city was also under the control of Sepuus. The puppet emperor Caracalla was directly overthrown and controlled by the Ming army. Lu Xuan entered the palace.
Lu Xuan took control of Constantinople, and Guo Jia began to take over government affairs, first of all to control Constantinople.
Guo Jia's method of doing things is not weak, he just prefers to come up with outlandish ideas. It's not that he can't handle government affairs, it's just that he is too lazy to take care of it. Now Guo Jia also wants to clear his name and is very conscientious.
Under Guo Jia's arrangement, Sepuus, a tool man, showed great value. Sepuus exposed the crimes of all Roman aristocrats, led the Ming army to confiscate their homes and exterminate their families, and wiped out the main Roman aristocrats.
That is to say, David, the internal agent who had already surrendered, and a few people survived.
Guo Jia relied on Sepuus, David and others to further control Constantinople, and he was also adjusting Christianity. He ordered Sepuus to change his doctrine and put Ming Dynasty first in everything. Even God must serve the imperial court. , rather than overriding the imperial court.
Under Guo Jia's drastic reforms, the interests of the Roman aristocrats were also offended, and the Roman aristocrats wanted to resist. However, Guo Jia has an army and strength, so he doesn't need any additional planning at all. The army just pushes forward and directly destroys the troublemakers.
Everything in Constantinople is recovering quickly, and everything is back on track.
It's December and the weather is getting colder.
Guo Jia has firmly controlled the Roman imperial capital and has begun to expand from Constantinople. He arranged for Chen Dao and Gao Shun to go to surrounding cities to seize more places and control more areas.
These things cannot be accomplished overnight and require enough time to advance.
In fact, the same was true in Parthia. Most areas in Anxi have surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, but there are still some areas that have not been captured, so troops need to be mobilized to solve them bit by bit.
The same is true for Rome.
On this day, Lu Xuan called Guo Jia and said with a smile: "Fengxiao, I have given you enough time to adjust. Now, I am leading the army to evacuate, can you stabilize the situation in Rome?"
Guo Jiaxin said: "Your Majesty, if the situation cannot be stabilized even after this, I will come to see you."
Today's Rome is mainly about governance.
No more power.
The main reason is that in order to destroy the Ming Dynasty, Sepuus has already dispatched 200,000 troops to leave. This time, more than 100,000 troops were wiped out by Lu Xuan, and their effective strength was completely gone.
At this stage, he is sure enough and confident enough to win the entire Rome.
With a smile on his face, Lu Xuan said: "Since Fengxiao can complete the task, I don't care. Today, I will lead the army to evacuate. Everything in Rome will be left to you."
Guo Jia solemnly said: "I obey your orders."
Lu Xuan continued: "Rome has religions that interfere with the secular world, and its geographical location and customs are also more complicated. It will be quite troublesome and tricky to handle government affairs in Rome. Therefore, I allow you to deal with it first and then report it. You will not report it after you have dealt with it. Late."
Guo Jia's eyes were moved and he said: "I will definitely live up to your majesty's kindness."
Lu Xuan changed the topic and said: "Fengxiao, sex is like a bone scraper, and wine and sex are like bone scraping and peeling. You have to be moderate in this aspect. If you have the ability in this area, it's naturally okay. But, don't be too obsessed."
Guo Jia's moved expression disappeared, and he looked embarrassed. He said: "Your Majesty, I haven't been involved in drinking and sex for a long time. Especially when I came to Rome, I have always been cautious and have never acted recklessly."
Lu Xuan said: "As long as you understand."
He waved his hand, Guo Jia stood up and left, and Lu Xuan immediately informed Xu Chu to give the order to set off.
The army had been prepared for a long time. After Lu Xuan gave the order, the army set off in a mighty way from Constantinople and began to return to the country. On this way back, Lu Xuan did not choose the water route for the time being, because he planned to go back to An'an to take a look.
This retreat is an opportunity to learn about the situation along the way.
Lu Xuan returned with Cao Cao, Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, Xiahou Dun and Ma Chao, and the soldiers' fighting spirit was very high. After all, they had been away from domestic combat for not a year or two, but for many years.
Many people are already married and have children outside.
Going back now is a return home in fine clothes.
Lu Xuan led his people back to Taixi Feng first. Xun Yu, as the current general manager of An'an, handled An'an's affairs in an orderly manner and everything went smoothly. In particular, the implementation of Ming Mandarin was very smooth, and local governments began to speak Ming Mandarin.
There is no way, all officials in the government must speak Ming Dynasty Mandarin. If you want to go to the government to do business, you must speak Mandarin. The same is true when dealing with the government. In order to allocate better land and to make his children stand out, they must speak Ming Dynasty Mandarin.
Everything is linked to language and writing, so rest is changing rapidly.
Lu Xuan temporarily supplied supplies in Taixifeng, and after a chat with Xun Yu, he confirmed that Xun Yu would continue to stay in Taixifeng, and then took his people to leave Anxi and head east.
From Ctesiphon to Xiangzhou, we came to the area of Lan's City.
This is the area controlled by Lu Rong.
Lu Rong is from the Lu family, and Lu Xuan also appreciates it. Lu Xuan affirmed everything Lu Rong did in Lan's City and inspected it. While Lu Xuan was inspecting, Lu Su made a special trip north from Huashi City to report to Lu Xuan the situation in Xiangzhou.
Xiangzhou has also changed a lot. The most important thing is that it now enjoys many people from the Ming Dynasty.
Many people migrated from within the country.
People from the mainland of the Ming Dynasty can be allocated land and enjoy more benefits as long as they come to Xiangzhou. For some people who are not living a good life in China, it is definitely a paradise.
Lu Xuan was very satisfied with the development of Xiangzhou. After staying in Xiangzhou for three days, he started to lead his army towards Xizhou, which was governed by Zhuge Liang.
