Chapter 239 The traitor and regicide will be executed! The land that Dayan conquered from the previous dynasty was only the five states in the north of Yan. Later, it attacked the Yue Kingdom in the south and the Northern Barbarians in the north, expanding the five states into twelve states.
But throughout the year 210 of Dayan, the east and west borders have always been peaceful. If there is a shortage of soldiers in Dayan, large armies will inevitably be drawn from the east and west borders.
This has also resulted in Dayan not being very familiar with the situation in the two countries. What it knows is only what ordinary spies can find out. Moreover, as Dayan's internal situation has deteriorated in recent years, its intelligence on the two countries has also become weaker. I have learned a lot, only some important things that everyone knows.
The Jin Yiwei sent to the two countries have not yet sent back any news. For the time being, Chu Jiang can only rely on the files left by Dayan for information about the two countries.
According to Dayan's intelligence database, both Wei and Yan are very powerful, far stronger than the Yue Kingdom in the south, even when Taizu Taizu of Dayan was established.
The strength of the two countries is not weaker than that of Dayan, which is why Dayan expanded to the south of Vietnam.
In fact, it is not only the three countries of Yan, Wei, and Yan that are strong, but also the countries that face the Northern Barbarians. Only countries like Yue, which have no trace of the Northern Barbarians in their territory, are generally weak.
The Northland is a narrow area formed by Dayu's retreat of three thousand miles. The width from front to back is only three thousand miles, but the length is a hundred thousand miles away.
Sixteen countries are distributed in this long and narrow area. Although most of the countries are directly bordering the Northern Barbarians, there are also four countries whose territories are all located on the Dayu side and have no borders with the Northern Barbarians. The Yue Kingdom It is one of these four countries.
According to the intelligence records of Dayan, the Yan State was at odds with the Jin State further to the west, and the border had always been extremely , on the other hand, had a rift with Qingguo further east, and there were constant border frictions between the two sides.
It seems that the situation of Yan and Wei has been like this since the establishment of Dayan. They have been at war with their neighboring countries. Therefore, after Taizu Yan established Dayan, the relationship between the two countries and Dayan has been very good.
Thinking of this, Chu Jiang also shook his head secretly. The time of the Dayan Dynasty was indeed too short. The founding emperor had just left the country for less than a year, and Dayan was destroyed. In just 210 years, it was not even comparable to some ordinary people without fantasy power. dynasty.
Before Taizu Yan died, he did not cultivate the second Hunyuan realm warrior in Dayan, but that does not mean that the surrounding dynasties did the same. A master of the Hunyuan realm has a lifespan of 300 years. Under normal circumstances, it is still very long to inherit it for hundreds or thousands of years. relaxing.
Chu Jiang picked up the ink pen in his hand and wrote a precise word under the memorial, "Send the decree to the cabinet, prepare a letter of credence, and reply to Dayan. I look forward to the arrival of the Dayan delegation."
"After the Yan Kingdom envoy arrives, let Wang Gui send a thousand elites to escort him to the capital!"
"Yes!"
The Jin Yiwei on the side stepped back respectfully.
Chu Jiang opened the second memorial, which contained a list of all the officials in the capital of Dayan.
After more than a month, the inventory of all the officials and nobles of Dayan was finally completed. The information of all officials was read through by Zhang Qin and Chen Gong.
The list was ultimately made based on the abilities and conduct of these officials.
There are four groups in total. One is the group that has less involvement with Dayan and can be appointed. These people are already serving in second is people who are deeply involved with Dayan, but have good abilities. This group of people can be used, but cannot be reused. They are currently in some positions that require abilities but do not have high official positions. Together with the first group of people, they formed the current The central organization of Daxia.
The third is a group of veterans who are loyal to Da Xia. Although they dare not openly resist Da Xia for fear of their lives, they have never wanted to be used by Da Xia.
Zhang Qin went to the prison before and asked if there was anyone who could serve Daxia. Most of the officials were willing, but these officials were indifferent and only wanted to beg for the bones!
The fourth group is a group of outsiders, who are the first to join Daxia. They want to serve in Daxia and have a bright future. The Prime Minister of Great Yan is the leader of this group.
Looking at the content above, Chu Jiang snorted coldly, "The first two will be dealt with according to the cabinet. Those loyal veterans should be dealt with according to their instructions. They will be acquitted and allowed to retire and return to their hometowns. As for the last batch, Immediately press out of the Meridian Gate and kill him!"
When the army was approaching, Emperor Renzong of Great Yan wanted to fight with Great Xia. As a result, Prime Minister Yan of Beida struck him from behind. If Emperor Renzong hadn't jumped so fast, King Jinlun wouldn't have been needed. Emperor Renzong would have died. It's in the hands of the Prime Minister!
Chu Jiang does not want such loyal and good ministers. Even if there are so many powerful men in Daxia now, they can completely suppress a small Confucian scholar in the cultivation realm, but what is the use of keeping these rebels and traitors? , the stronger the cultivation level and the more outstanding the ability, the greater the harm to Daxia! "Yes!"
Among the prisons in the capital, the originally empty prisons had been filled by officials from Dayan. However, as courtiers were being released continuously during this period, the originally overcrowded prisons gradually became sparse.
In a prison, an old man sat on straw, looking at the sparse prisons around him, and said with some worry: "Prime Minister, it has been more than a month now, and Your Majesty has not released us. Could it be that Your Majesty wants to release us?" Killing a donkey?"
In the center of the prison, the gray-haired Prime Minister Yan slowly opened his eyes, and a strong white light flashed away, "Don't panic, I will be the king's pioneer and open the city gate. No matter what, your Majesty will not kill me." wait."
"If we are killed and Daxia sends troops in the future, who will dare to open the city and surrender? Although the king does not like our behavior, but if we are killed, it will cause endless harm. Wherever Daxia's troops will pass in the future, Every time you capture a city, you will have to pay a greater price, and your Majesty will naturally know clearly which one is more important."
"And that day, I opened the city gate to greet the king. There were more than 30 people, including three from the Confucian realm, and one general from the Yuangang realm. The rest are also talents."
"The beginning of the summer is the time when talents are needed. They will definitely not kill us. Just wait patiently. We, the scholars, be careful to be calm!"
"That's what the Prime Minister said!" said the civil servant who had spoken earlier.
"Humph, scholar, regicide scholar, this is my first time seeing him!" A gray-haired old man snorted, his face full of ridicule.
"Mr. Bai's words are serious. A gentleman should judge the situation and judge the situation. Da Xia will replace Yan. This is God's will. Things cannot be done. You should comply with God's destiny!" The prime minister said expressionlessly.
"Hmph, if you surrender after the city is broken, you won't say anything even if you say this. Killing the monarch first before the city is broken will dishonor the reputation of a scholar. To return a gentleman, you are worse than an animal!" The old man's beard trembled. He pointed at Prime Minister Dayan and shouted.
"Mr. Bai, please feel free to do so. At least I can still live!" Prime Minister Dayan's expression remained unchanged.
