However, at this time, he could not save it by issuing a decree.
Those tribes didn't believe the previous massacres. Without his King Long's will, Ping Dali or Tai Tai Tun would have killed them indiscriminately? If you say a word now, they are the wealth and life of the entire clan! If it were any other time, I might have no choice but to believe in him, King Long.
However, now, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is personally visiting the army, and they will fight soon. The war is about to break out. Who will win and who will lose? Although it is difficult to say before the war, they all have their own understanding.
The Ming Dynasty has always been a kingdom with a vast territory. One of their ordinary governors was in charge of a place larger than King Talon. The prosperity of the Ming Dynasty is even more famous for a long time.
Now the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is marching in person, and he must have brought the most elite army in the entire Ming Dynasty. Not to mention, it was really overwhelming along the way.
In this context, these tribes who were frightened by the butcher's knife, let alone have thoughts that they didn't have before, now have thoughts. If there are better prospects for joining the Ming Dynasty, then why should we hug King Long's calf? It must be holding thicker thighs!
Such a result is probably something he, Prince Long, would never have thought of beforehand. After he persuaded and persuaded, and found that it had no effect, he was really cruel in order to win this battle, and simply did not stop doing anything. He really launched an attack on the tribes in the Ava area who did not obey his orders. of encirclement and suppression.
…………
The road from Xibo to Ava City is really much more difficult than the road from Hanlongguan to Xibo. He is used to the official roads of the Central Plains and the vast plains in the north. Now marching on this lofty mountain but extremely hot path, to be honest, Cao Bianjiao would rather fight with the Jianlu!
At this time, he was continuing to be the vanguard of the army and marching towards the city of Ava according to the order. Suddenly, a royal guard caught up behind him and sent him a message, asking him to slow down the march and not to let the army get too tired.
Upon hearing this decree, Cao Bianjiao was a little confused at first. Logically speaking, isn't it true that troops need to be quick and don't give Tougo too many opportunities to prepare?
The previous battle of Xibo was actually an example of the speed of soldiers. The Dongwu troops in Xibo did not expect him to arrive at Xibo so quickly, giving him an opportunity to easily defeat them.
Moreover, I heard that there are not so many mountains in Awa after all. Get out of these mountains quickly. This is probably the wish of all the northern soldiers!
But since the emperor's decree has been issued, no matter what, you must obey it.
At this time, Cao Bianjiao had no thought of disrespecting the emperor's life. After all, the emperor's wisdom and martial prowess have been proven many times!
However, when the Jin Yiwei saw his confused expression, he approached him and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty said that the Dongwu army over there in Ava City is in civil strife. They must be given time to make the chaos more thorough."
If he advances too fast and is under huge pressure, King Long may attack this side with all his strength. It's better to let him rest assured and lift the butcher knife a few more times.
When Cao Bianjiao heard this, he couldn't help but suddenly realized that it was like this. No wonder he had to be uncharacteristic and slower.
But at the same time, he was also a little curious.
Because his army is the vanguard of the Ming Dynasty's army, it stands to reason that if there is news or something, his vanguard army must know it first. But now, it is the emperor who is in the Chinese army who knows the situation in Ava City first. This is really strange!
After thinking about it, it feels a bit incredible! A trace of doubt arose in his heart.
As a result, before two days had passed, Cao Bianjiao received a call from Youdongwu who had been released without paying anything in return, saying that he was willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty and follow the Ming Dynasty army to defeat King Long.
As soon as he heard the news, he immediately remembered the emperor's explanation, and he was immediately impressed. It turned out that what the emperor had expected was true!
So, he asked people to bring Dongwu people to him, and after personally understanding the situation, he immediately reported back to the Chinese army and explained the specific situation.
Emperor Chongzhen had actually learned about this situation through the Class A eavesdropping seeds on his body, and ordered the Chinese army to rush on their way to join the forward. From then on, the forward troops were cancelled. In other words, the forward troops expanded, and he directly took charge of the forward position.
The reason for doing this was that he was worried that among the Dongwu people who came to surrender, there would be people who pretended to surrender under the orders of King Long. Cao Bianjiao did not eavesdrop on the seeds and it was difficult to distinguish them. But he is different. Anyway, one Grade A eavesdropping seed can be split into six Grade C eavesdropping seeds. If you have a lot of them in your hand, you can just use them. In this way, he can distinguish the authenticity of these cavemen coming to surrender, so as to finish the war in the most effective way.
As soon as he arrived in the forward army, Emperor Chongzhen issued an order to have the three messengers who had already arrived in Cao Bianjiao's army come to see him.
When the three messengers from the Dongwu tribe heard that the Ming Emperor had just arrived and summoned them, they couldn't help but be very excited. Anyway, they used the highest etiquette they had ever heard, kowtowing three times at a time from outside the Chinese military tent to express their highest respect.
Regarding their performance, Emperor Chongzhen allowed them to wait until they were done, then said with a smile: "Everyone, get up and speak!"
"Thank you, His Majesty the Ming Emperor, long live long live!" After shouting loudly, the three envoys stood up. Until then, they secretly looked at the situation in the Chinese military tent from the corners of their eyes.
With just one glance, they saw a group of generals in bright armor on both sides of the central military tent. They were all tall and majestic. This peek immediately put a lot of pressure on them. They originally wanted to see the master. The emperor on the throne didn't dare to do anything at this time. He just lowered his head and looked at his toes.
Emperor Chongzhen saw their expressions and movements, and immediately said kindly: "I heard what Cao Qing said, that King Long was cruel and killed innocent people indiscriminately. Your relatives, regardless of gender, old or young, were killed. Tu, didn’t you run away quickly and your clan was wiped out?”
Hearing this, the three messengers became excited again. They hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed to Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Then Prince Long is crazy and killing innocent people indiscriminately. We hope that His Majesty the Ming Emperor will make the decision for us!"
"King Talon is cruel and cruel. My tribe is willing to be the vanguard of the Ming army to attack Ava City and capture King Talon alive, as well as that Pingdali!"
"My tribe is also willing to serve the Ming Dynasty. We only hope that the Ming Dynasty can help us avenge our hatred!"
"..."
Among these three people, some even burst into tears while speaking. If there is any lie, it is really at the level of a movie king. If you say you are crying, you will shed tears. Many of the professionals in later generations cannot do that.
Emperor Chongzhen looked at them and immediately said righteously: "King Dongwu has always been cruel and unscrupulous. He not only invaded our Ming Dynasty territory and harmed my people; he did not expect that he also acted perversely towards his own subjects. It seems that he has become angry with both humans and gods..."
When he said this, he actually secretly changed the concept and turned King Long into King Dongwu. But who cares about this?
Then Emperor Chongzhen said solemnly: "Those who commit crimes against the Ming Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are! I traveled thousands of miles to come personally. I originally wanted to avenge my people who were murdered, destroy Dongwu, demote Dongwu captives as slaves, and serve them In order to atone for the crimes committed against the Ming Dynasty in the past. However, I did not expect that there are people in Dongwu who are committed to the Ming Dynasty. In this way, I promise you that as long as you make contributions, you will be my subjects from now on, just like the people of the Ming Dynasty now. !”
Upon hearing this, the three messengers couldn't help but look at each other, and they all said in their hearts: How dangerous!
If we don't express our feelings, once Dongwu is captured by the Ming Dynasty, everyone will be slaves and atone for the sins of the former King Dongwu!
Look at the Ming generals outside and the Ming army generals inside the tent. They are all tall and majestic and well-armed. Such an elite army is simply not comparable to Dongwu's army. Even the palace guards of King Long were not as elite as this Ming army. No wonder the Ming army was so powerful and unstoppable along the way!
With this thought in mind, the three messengers kowtowed quickly and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor!"
From then on, they regarded themselves as the common people of the Ming Dynasty!
Emperor Chongzhen waited for them to finish shouting, and then he turned to a friendly tone and said to them: "When you get back, you can tell my intention widely. No matter how big or small your credit is, as long as you have concrete actions and can express your position, you are willing to be my son." I will not refuse even those who are from the people. But if you want to be obsessed with it, you can boldly come against me. The roads in Dongwu, Yunnan, are too bad, and I still think there are not enough prisoners!"
After hearing this, the three messengers agreed again and again, and even swore that they would make him look good and serve the Ming Dynasty!
As soon as they left, Emperor Chongzhen said to the generals in the tent: "Let's rest first and make preparations step by step. We only need to reach Ava City in the middle of the month!"
At this time, he didn't need to explain anymore. Not only Cao Bianjiao but also other generals in the Chinese military tent knew that this was to give the Dongwu tribe who wanted to serve the Ming Dynasty time so that they could have a chance to prove themselves. In this way, it should be much easier for Ming Dynasty to attack Ava City and destroy Dongwu.
Thinking of this, all the generals couldn't help but admire the emperor in their hearts. The barbarian king was frightened to the point of being so powerful that he lost his mind and lost his position. The emperor just said a word, and he got more support from the people of Dongwu. In this way, attacking Dongwu will become much easier!
…………
After the messengers from the three tribes went back to convey the Ming Emperor's will, the morale of these tribes who had been hiding suddenly increased. Not for anything else, just because there is someone behind them now!
As long as you make contributions, you will become a common citizen of the Ming Dynasty! Look, the people of the Ming Dynasty were bullied, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty now traveled thousands of miles to take revenge. It's that...anyone who offends the Ming Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away!
In the future, I will also be a citizen of the Ming Dynasty. If anyone dares to bully my tribe, God will tell me that the Ming army will definitely come to stand up for me and avenge myself! At least it will be like this when the current emperor is on the throne!
Thinking about this, why not quickly make some achievements? Whoever wants to be a slave must be a citizen of the Ming Dynasty!
