    ?

    Guo Xiaozheng hadn't answered yet, but Hu Youshan had already answered, saying: "My lord, news has been sent back from the front that the 70,000 Turkic army led by Tong Yehu was completely annihilated. Among them, Tong Yehu himself was even captured alive by King Pingxi.  "

    When Long Zhengyang heard it, he froze suddenly, his face full of shock.

    Tong Yehu was captured alive.

    The 70,000 Turkic army was wiped out.

    The problem is, according to reliable information, Du Qi's army is only 30,000, but it can easily destroy the Turkic army, which is terrifying.

    Although Long Zhengyang is young, he has suffered countless hardships since he was a child, so he is not an ignorant person.  He thought for a while and asked, "May I ask Mr. Guo, King Pingxi fought the Turks in this battle. Although he won the battle, how about the casualties?"

    Guo Xiaozheng raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

    Hu Youshan never asked this question, but Long Zhengyang did not expect to ask, which is quite impressive.  Because even if a battle is won, there are different situations.

    It can be a big win.

    It can also be just a tragic victory.

    Guo Xiaozheng was not in a panic, because the letter sent by Du Qi's spies recorded his own losses, and he said: "My lord, my king fought with the Turks, and the loss did not exceed a thousand people."

    "What?"

    After Long Zhengyang heard it, he was shocked again.

    The loss did not exceed one thousand people.

    This is too scary.

    Long Zhengyang leaned forward a little, and couldn't help saying again: "Master Guo, are you sure that King Pingxi lost less than a thousand people in the battle with the Turks. Such casualties are unbelievable, and even more so."  People think it's fake!"

    Guo Xiaozheng said to himself: "Master, this news is indeed a bit shocking to you, but if you can't do it, it doesn't mean that His Highness can't do it. What's more, the news should not be difficult to inquire about. I believe your spies will soon  Will send a message back."

    Long Zhengyang nodded when he heard the words, as Guo Xiaozheng said, the news of Du Qi's victory cannot be faked, after all, Yanqi State has its own news channel.

    Hu Youshan took the words and reminded him actively: "My lord, since our agreement with King Pingxi has been completed, we should implement it according to the old agreement."

    Long Zhengyang said: "Yes!"

    Hu Youshan said again: "The king should fulfill the agreement, so he is ready to surrender. Since he has surrendered, don't think about it any more. If you have other thoughts, you will only harm yourself."

    Long Zhengyang said: "All depends on the Taifu."

    At this moment, when Long Zhengyang thought of Du Qi's record, he felt awe from the bottom of his heart.  Yanqi Kingdom also has its own army, with a strength of 10,000 to 20,000 people. These people are enough to face the Turkic soldiers, but now they are even more unstoppable when facing the even more powerful Du Qi.

    So Long Zhengyang lost his confidence.

    I can only admit cowardly and surrender.

    After a pause, Long Zhengyang said: "As for the specific matters of how to welcome Pingxi King, who should go with him, the Taifu and Master Guo will discuss it, and we will inform the king after the discussion is complete."

    "yes!"

    Hu Youshan bowed in response.

    He heard the implication of Long Zhengyang's words, and he didn't want to talk about the matter anymore, so Hu Youshan bowed respectfully and then left. Guo Xiaozheng also left with Hu Youshan.

    After leaving the palace, Guo Xiaozheng said: "Teacher Hu, Yanqi Kingdom is about to become history, and there should be only Yanqi Prefecture left. I don't know Taifu Hu, would you like to serve His Highness?"

    Hu Youshan sighed and said: "This old man is the Taifu of Yanqi Kingdom. He was in charge of the government, but he ruined Yanqi Kingdom. Loyal ministers are not two masters. Although this old man is not a loyal minister, after all, this Yanqi Kingdom was ruined by me. I have failed.  The entrustment of the former king betrayed the lord, so I can no longer serve King Pingxi, otherwise my conscience will not be at ease."

    Guo Xiaozheng said: "The reason why Taifu Hu urges the lord to surrender is not for his own self-interest, but for the thousands of people in Yanqi Kingdom, and for the protection of Yanqi Kingdom from the flames of war."

    "It is easy to destroy, but difficult to build."

    "If the flames of war spread to Yanqi Kingdom, it may take a few days, and Yanqi Kingdom's decades of operations in Yanqi City will be wiped out, which cannot be recovered in a short period of time."

    Guo Xiaozheng said with eloquence: "Teacher Hu's hard work, Mr. Guo understands a little bit. Taifu Hu, you have a whole body of talent and learning, and you have been in power for many years and have rich experience. It is a pity that you are unemployed at home."

    Hu Youshan shook his head and said: "It's no pity, what's more, there are a lot of talents under King Pingxi's command. People like this old man who have already buried half of their body are not qualified to serve King Pingxi."

    GuoXiaozheng said: "His Royal Highness has always been respectful to corporals, and he only promotes talent. Taifu Hu's talent should not be buried."

    Hu Youshan said in a deep voice: "Master Guo, I have already made up my mind. What's more, people have their own aspirations, so you don't have to persuade me. Master Guo served King Pingxi, that's your good fortune. I served the Lord, that's me.  life."

    Guo Xiaozheng frowned.

    He didn't expect Hu Youshan to be so stubborn.

    Hu Youshan did not care about Guo Xiaozheng's thoughts, and continued: "Speaking of which, I feel ashamed in my heart for bringing the lord back to King Pingxi this time. I am ashamed of my trust in the previous king, and I am even more sorry for the successive kings of Yanqi Kingdom. Strictly speaking, this old man is  A sinner of the Yanqi Kingdom. Therefore, the old man has no face to go out of office again, and only hope that he can spend his old age in peace."

    Guo Xiaozheng heard the words and said no more.

    After all, he couldn't persuade.

    The two left the palace together, returned to Hu Youshan's mansion, and discussed the matter of welcoming them. After many items were discussed, Hu Youshan immediately issued an order in the name of the lord, ordering all parts of the Yanqi Kingdom to give up resistance and submit to Du Qi.

    In addition, when Du Qi led the army to arrive at Yanqi City, Long Zhengyang, as the lord of Yanqi Kingdom, led all civil and military officials out of the city to greet him, and handed in the seal and soldier amulet, and handed everything over to Du Qi.

    Guo Xiaozheng has no objection to these arrangements.  He left Hu's house, returned to his residence, wrote a letter immediately, and arranged for someone to send it to Du Qi's army as soon as possible.

    After Guo Xiaozheng finished dealing with the matter, he thought about the Kucha Kingdom.  Yi Fusheng went to the country of Kucha, but there was no news. For this reason, Guo Xiaozheng specially arranged for people to go to the country of Kucha to inquire about the news.

    When Du Qi got the news from Guo Xiaozheng, he had already entered the territory of Yanqi Kingdom, walked half of the distance, and was not too far from Yanqi City.  Even without Long Zhengyang's order to give up resistance, Du Qi's army has never encountered resistance all the way forward.

    After all, the Turkic people were completely wiped out, and there was no force anywhere that could resist Du Qi.

    Du Qi saw Guo Xiaozheng's letter and learned that he was ready to meet him, so he smiled.  It's just that Du Qi frowned slightly when he noticed Hu Youshan mentioned by Guo Xiaozheng.

    Hu Youshan is very famous in Yanqi country.

    After all, Hu Youshan has been in power for many years.

    Furthermore, Hu Youshan has rich experience in governing the local area, and he loves the people like a son. Many of the principles and policies of governance are beneficial to the people, and he tries his best to let the people live a good life.

    It's a pity that Hu Youshan didn't want to surrender, so he wanted to resign and go home, and he didn't want to be an official.  Guo Xiaozheng couldn't persuade him, so he hoped that Du Qi would come forward to solve this problem in the letter.

    Du Qi was also thinking about it while he was on his way.

    In order to successfully control all parts of Yanqi City and win the hearts of the people in the shortest possible time, we must not only introduce various policies to benefit the people, but the most important thing is to make Hu Youshan, who is famous among the people, surrender.

    This is what everyone expects.

    While Du Qi was on his way, he arranged for another person to send a letter to Guo Xiaozheng, asking Guo Xiaozheng to find out all the news about Hu Youshan so that Du Qi could respond when he arrived.

    The army rushed all the way and arrived at Yanqi County, the capital of Yanqi Kingdom, in early June.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
