The reason why Xu Luo had ordered General Yang to mobilize 300,000 undead terracotta soldiers with the tiger talisman to attack the northeast was to solve the worries of the north!
At the same time, he also issued an edict to personally lead the army south to Shanxi and destroy Yan, who was sleeping next to him. He seized the territory of Hebei and advanced to spy on the south of the Yellow River. They were preparing to unify China.
After he led his army out of Beiping, he left 200,000 terracotta soldiers in Beiping to guard it. This way, those guys in Beiping would not dare to cause any trouble when he was not around. After that, he led an army of over two million soldiers straight to Shanxi.
The army moved as fast as the wind and as slow as the forest. In just two days, the army had reached Niangzi Pass.
The moment the defenders of the pass realized that the Qin army was approaching the city again, they immediately abandoned the city and fled! After all, Xu Luo's army had wiped out the local garrison at Niangzi Pass last time, devouring the local garrison until only human bones were left. This made the garrison at Niangzi Pass still vivid and shocking. He couldn't even muster up the slightest bit of resistance!
After effortlessly obtaining Niangzi Pass, Xu Luo did not rest on the spot. Instead, he followed the deserters and chased them all the way until they reached Taiyuan City.
At this moment, Taiyuan!
At this moment, Yan was in the middle of Taiyuan City, reading in an unhappy mood! Ever since it ended, without the threat of the Wei Nation, the war became more and more intense. As he occupied the crucial part of the Central Plains, the land of the Three Jin, he was also threatened and roped in by both sides, either openly or secretly. This made him extremely annoyed, but he did not dare to fall out with either side.
"Bang!"
The head of the Secretariat suddenly pushed open the door. Under Yan's surprised gaze, he panted and said,""No…no…not good! Leader, the army that broke through Niangzi Pass has reached the city!”
…………，
The tower of Taiyuan City,
Yan's face was pale as he looked at the huge terracotta army below. It was his first time seeing such an unknown thing, and it was the first time he felt fear!
Yan, who had a cautious personality and was also mentally prepared, immediately sent an envoy with gold and jewelry to the Qin camp to beg Xu Luo to retreat! Xu Luo did not humiliate the envoy like he did outside Beiping City. Instead, he welcomed the envoy generously. At the same time, when he was entertaining the emissary, he also let the emissary inspect the terracotta army with him. During this period, he showed the emissary the invulnerability and fearlessness of the terracotta soldiers! Then, he gave Yan an ultimatum under the pale face of the emissary. Either burn with the city, or surrender to the new dynasty
After the emissary brought back Xu Luo's words and the terrifying description of the terracotta soldiers, Yan struggled nervously in his heart. In the end, he sighed silently and left the city to surrender. At the same time, he sent a message to declare that Shanxi would leave and join the newly restored Great Qin.
Xu Luo was very satisfied with Yan Chucheng's surrender! He then issued an edict to change Shanxi Province to Taiyuan Prefecture and appointed Yan Xishan, who had just surrendered, as the prefect. He would continue to govern the newly changed province, Bingzhou. The original treatment of Bingzhou's officials would remain the same, and they would only need to swear loyalty to Great Qin! After that, they took advantage of the situation to sweep Hebei and forced the reform all the way! Those who were unwilling to submit would be destroyed and beheaded, and their heads would be sent to the various prefectures and counties north of the Yellow River that had submitted to Great Qin. At the same time as establishing prestige, he would also kill the surrendered officials to make them fear him!
After that, half of the troops would continue south until they reached the edge of the Yellow River. Xu Luo would command them remotely from Beiping! A million troops were stationed in Yangliu City on the north bank of the Yellow River, spying on Henan. They were waiting for the Central Plains to fight and then harvest the fruits of the war.
After Xu Luo had wiped out many counties, he returned to Beiping after Hebei had completely surrendered. The million-strong army gave off an aura that seemed to be able to sweep through Hebei, and their killing intent surged. After returning to Beiping, the fence-sitters who had just joined them felt as if they had taken a tonic, and their faces were glowing. The Great Qin Imperial Court, which they had looked down on, now made them feel a sense of belonging!
He continued to station the million-plus troops outside the city while Xu Luo rode into the city alone and returned to the Imperial Palace.
Just as Xu Luo entered the Heart-nourishing Hall of the imperial palace and meditated. The first good news came from General Yang.
"Good news! Good news! Eight hundred miles of good news! Victory in Shen Yang!" A living soldier riding on a war horse galloped along the road. A loud voice rang out for the first time! It had been decades since the residents of Beiping had heard of a victory within eight hundred miles. At this moment, everyone was crowding on both sides of the road that had been abandoned for decades as if they were looking at a rare object. They looked at the knights who had long left and discussed animatedly!
"Have you heard? Our Great Qin's Emperor has won another battle, and that old vinegar jar Yan has surrendered to become our Great Qin's Prefecture Overseer!”An old man smoking a pipe said to the crowd.
" I knew it long ago," a thin man with a mustache and wearing a retro Ming Dynasty councilor's uniform replied disdainfully. After a while, he whispered to the person,""I heard that the Emperor has traveled all the way south to the Yellow River. He has even stationed millions of troops by the Yellow River, waiting for the south to start fighting. At that time, he will reap the benefits of the fisherman and unify the world! I wonder if it's true?"
"If only that were the case. Since the year of Xuantong, it has been chaotic for so many years. It's time to live a peaceful life.”An elderly woman next to him interrupted.
As soon as these words were said, they were immediately acknowledged. After all, these decades had indeed been filled with endless wars. Therefore, the unified speech immediately received the approval of the common people. However, there were also a few westernized people in suits who opposed the imperial system and hated Xu Luo, the feudal cancer. They mocked,
"Haha! Foolish! Ignorant! And unify the world? If they were really unified, they would probably have to suffer the hardships of the violent Qin Dynasty's corvee! Didn't you see that scum He Siyuan going around recruiting able-bodied men? This time, the tyrant was immortal. There was probably no Qin II! At that time, all of them would have to go to war and die! How could such a decadent, harsh, brutal, and autocratic feudal system be better than the previous democratic freedom! Sooner or later, this tyrant…"
The few of them spoke more and more intensely. Their saliva splashed everywhere, and their words became more and more impudent. In the end, he directly cursed Xu Luo as a tyrant, a tumor of feudalism and despotism!
The surrounding people were so frightened that they quickly dispersed. At the same time, they immediately called the police from the surrounding phone booths. The ancient " Qin Law " issued by Xu Luo had stipulated that anyone who insulted and slandered the emperor, if not reported, would be seen as covering up and would be punished together!
After calling the police, they did not dare to go too far. They all watched the westernized people from the side, afraid that they would escape. At that time, the entire street would be punished by the government!
