A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1497
[Chapter 1486 King’s Landing]
“Victory in Luoyang, Victory in Luoyang!”
A fast horse crossed the long street in the capital of Chu State, heading towards the imperial city, and people on both sides of the street ran out one after another.
“Victory in Luoyang?” A man dressed as a scholar said happily: “It seems that the city of Luoyang has been captured, hahaha, the Chu army is mighty, the world will be unified again, and the war will cease from now on.”
A group of people gathered around. Someone asked: “Song Xianggong, did you really capture Luoyang?”
“You should know that the Northern Han was in civil strife and fought with each other. Our Chu army fought against the Huai River, and the force was like a broken bamboo. General Yue was brave, and now he has naturally captured Luoyang.” Song Xianggong pointed to the news cavalry that had gone far: “You didn’t hear it, Luoyang was victorious, even Luoyang was defeated, and the Northern Han Dynasty is over.”
“In this way, there is really no need to fight in the future.”
” The world will be unified, the four seas will be leveled, and naturally there will be no more wars.” There was
a burst of cheers all around, and many people reported the news to others, and the entire Jianye City soon burst into jubilation.
The Minister of War, Lu Xiao, had already led a group of ministers to the palace to beg to see the emperor. When the ministers came to the imperial study, Lu Xiao and a large group of people had already knelt on the ground and said in unison: “Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations. Your Majesty, Luoyang has won a great victory, and General Yue has already entered Luoyang.” The
little emperor Longtai walked out of the study and saw a group of ministers kneeling on the ground, his young and handsome face couldn’t hide his excitement: “Really… Have you really taken Luoyang?”
“Your Majesty, General Yue has a memorial, and the Ministry of War has also received a military report.” Lu Xiao took the memorial and presented it with both hands: “The Han army commander Zhong Liao killed himself, the Han army Abandoned weapons and surrendered, General Yue commanded his army in Luoyang, and our army has already entered Luoyang. Qu Yuangu, the prime minister of the Northern Han Dynasty, strangled Beitangfeng, and Kaicheng surrendered.”
Longtai opened the book, glanced at it, looked up at the sky, and muttered. Said
: “My long-cherished wish of the previous emperors of the Great Chu Dynasty has finally come true today.
”
Lu Xiao also said excitedly: “Sacred Lord, won the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty. The Northern Han Dynasty has now perished, and the world will be unified again. From now on, the Holy Lord will rule the world, and the four seas will be the territory of my Great Chu.”
“Long live the emperor, long live .
Long live!” The
ministers bowed again.
“Send my will, Yue Huanshan will temporarily sit in Luoyang, and the Ministry of War has prepared a list of awards, and in addition to reward the soldiers of the Qinhuai Army.” Longtai straightened up: “The Ministry of Punishment also passed on my will to amnesty the world!” The
ministers said: “Follow the order. Lu Xiao said again:
”
Your Majesty, General Yue will play, this time you can successfully take Luoyang, and King Yiheng has made great contributions. King Yiheng entered Luoyang alone and persuaded Qu Yuangu to submit to my great Chu. It is precisely because of this. Qu Yuangu attacked and controlled Luoyang, which caused the Han army to be cut off from the enemy’s money and food, and therefore Zhong Liao ordered to surrender and killed himself.”
Longtai laughed: “King Yiheng is a blessed general of our Great Chu, how can I reward him? He, think about it again.”
When the ministers retired, Longtai left Lu Xiao alone, and at this time Longtai couldn’t express his joy and said with a smile: “Lu Aiqing, I knew that sooner or later I would rule the world, but I didn’t expect it. It can be realized so quickly. After the unification of the country, I can let go of my hands and feet, and with the help of all the Aiqings, I will do my best to rule and give the people of the world a peaceful and prosperous world.”
Seeing the young emperor’s high-spirited spirit, Lu Xiao was also
relieved and said: “The emperor has great ambitions and cares about the common people. It is a blessing for the people in the world. Although the
minister is not talented, I would like to do my best to assist the emperor to give the people of the world a peaceful world.”
Longtai laughed and then sighed: “But there is one thing , you help me come up with an idea.”
“Your Majesty, please tell me!”
“Before going to Luoyang, King Yiheng came to see me and told me something.” The little emperor sighed, “Do you know the great master?”
Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said: “I have heard a little about it. Those great masters are all ghosts and ghosts, and it is said that their martial arts are also superb. It is said that Mu Yunhou of the Northern Han Dynasty is a great master, but this time it is very difficult. Strange, Qu Yuangu strangled Beitangfeng, and Mu Yunhou was the royal family of the Northern Han Dynasty, but he didn’t rescue him. It’s really strange.”
“He died.” Long Tai said: “Not only Beitang Huanye, but also several other great masters. They are all gone.”
Lu Xiao was startled, and said in surprise: “All… are all dead?”
“Don’t publicize this matter.” The little emperor said: “Beitang Huanye is dead, and we are from Chu. That Sword God has also passed away, and from now on, there will be no great masters in this world.”
Lu Xiao pondered for a while before saying: “Sir, this is not a bad thing. Those great masters are too strong in martial arts. Troubled the world. Without the great master, the sage will be able to govern the world with his hands and feet free, and there will be no more constraints.”
“The great master is gone, but King Yiheng’s martial arts are also superb, close to the great master.” Long Tai said: ” Previously, Zhuo Qingyang visited me in the palace and presented a map of the universe. According to his words, King Yiheng can be said to be the only great master in the world today. It is precisely because of this that King Yiheng has the ability to go to Luoyang alone and let him Qu Yuangu submits to my Great Chu.”
Lu Xiao said in surprise: “King Yiheng…is he a great master?”
“Of course he is not a real great master, it’s just that those great masters are dead. King Heng’s martial arts cultivation is unmatched, and he can be called a great master.” Long Tai sighed.
Lu Xiao frowned and said, “If this is the case, it is a threat to the imperial court…!”
Longtai shook his head and smiled: “You misunderstood. Whether King Yiheng is a great master or not, he is all about brotherhood. , others don’t know him, but I know it very well.” Calmly said: “If he wants, the throne should belong to him.”
Lu Xiao was startled, and he didn’t understand.
Of course, Longtai wouldn’t say something directly to Lu Xiao.
He naturally knew for a long time that Qi Ning’s biological father was Beitangqing, and he had the blood of the Beitang royal family on his body.
After the great master passed away, no one in the world could surpass Qi Ning in martial arts, and he had the blood of the Northern Han royal family, but he was an important minister of the Chu State, and he needed a choice.
And Qi Ning did make a choice.
With Qi Ning’s skill, it is not difficult to take the head of a general among the three armies. If he really wants to fight against the state of Chu and take off the heads of Longtai and Yue Huanshan, the state of Chu will surely be in chaos. Controlling Luoyang is even more familiar, just like he forced Qu Yuangu to submit to Chu. As long as he controls Qu Yuangu, sits in Luoyang, and then discloses his life experience, even if some people oppose him to sit on the throne of the Northern Han, he will not be able to. Nah he doesn’t.
But he did not do that in the end, but forced Qu Yuangu to surrender to the state of Chu, which eventually led to the surrender of the Han army, and Zhong Liao committed suicide.
At the moment when the good news came, Longtai was not only happy that the world was unified, but that
Qi Ning finally regarded him as a friend.
“When King Yiheng came to Luoyang, he had a request for me.” Long Tai sighed: “He hopes that after the world is unified, he can resign all his official positions and titles, and be a commoner, carefree and at ease. Lu Xiao was even more surprised:
”
King Yiheng is going to resign?”
Longtai nodded and said, “But I don’t want to agree to him. Since I ascended the throne, he has helped me a lot, I hope to govern the world in the future, and he By my side.”
Lu Xiao pondered for a while and sighed: “Your Majesty, I understand, King Yiheng is a kind heart. He doesn’t want to put pressure on the emperor in the court, stay away from the court, just hope that the emperor can Let go of your
hands and feet and work hard.”
“I have no pressure.” Long Tai smiled bitterly: “He doesn’t understand my intentions.”
“Your Majesty, this minister thinks that King Yiheng is at ease, but there is no need to resign.” Lu Xiao smiled: “Yi King Heng has the emperor in his heart. If the emperor really encounters embarrassing things in the future, King Yiheng will never stand by. The minister believes that King Yiheng has a free and easy heart, and just wants to live an unfettered life. If he is in the court, various interests and Personnel will always make him constrained, so it is better to stay away from the temple.”
Longtai thought for a while, then nodded and smiled: “Maybe it is true.” Thinking of something, he frowned: “Yes, there is still Linghu Xu in Puyang with the 20,000 Dongqi remnants, they are not ready to surrender?”
Lu Xiao said with a smile: “Your Majesty, I still have a memorial here. I wanted to wait for the good news to report to the Emperor. The remnants of the Eastern Qi Dynasty entrenched in Puyang are indeed troublesome, but King Yiheng thought of a way, he let Qu Yuan Commander Gu’s Northwest Army attacked Puyang, and the Northwest Army is a good strategy to deal with the remnants of the Eastern Qi.”
Long Tai was startled for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

When Longtai
and Lu Xiao were discussing matters, Qu Yuangu had already commanded the Northwest Iron Cavalry under the city of Puyang.
Qu Yuangu naturally knew that Puyang’s Eastern Qi soldiers were alone, and their morale had been extremely low. When Yue Huanshan wanted to reorganize the Northwest Army, Qu Yuangu felt bitter in his heart. Unexpectedly, Qi Ning finally let him command the Northwest Army to capture Puyang.
Although Qu Yuangu knew that this was for the Northwest Army and the remnants of the Eastern Qi to go shopping, it was the best result compared to being seized immediately.
After all, he can still carry tens of thousands of iron cavalry for a while, and after conquering Puyang, he has truly made a contribution, and at least he will not have to bow his head in front of the people of Chu in the future.
This is his mind, and so are his subordinates.
This is the last opportunity to make merit, and no one wants to miss it, so the army is approaching the city, and all the generals are invited to fight, hoping that they can become the first general to invade Puyang City.
It’s just that Qu Yuangu was instructed by Qi Ning that after besieging the city, he didn’t have to launch an offensive immediately. He waited for two days. If Linghu Xu hadn’t surrendered after two days, he could launch a fierce offensive.
Therefore, after the army besieged Puyang, they did not attack immediately, but camped on the spot and waited for two days.
Qu Yuangu only hoped that Linghu Xu would grit his teeth and insist, not to go out of the city to surrender, otherwise his last chance to make a contribution would slip away.
He might not have imagined that Linghu Xu did not open the door to surrender, precisely because he was Qu Yuangu who besieged Puyang.
