Chapter 645 (1/2)
”In the whole world, is it the emperor's land, the Bank of the land, or the king's ministers. From now on, there was no Shang state, and the commercial land was changed to Shangzhou. All the officials and people in the state respect the empress Ying Xiya
Chu Xiaodong, commander-in-chief of the Chu family army, left Yingshan Prefecture and headed for the other states and provinces of the Shang state with the imperial edict of surrender issued by the emperor Hu Jianlong.
At this stage of the war, the whole Shang state was extremely empty.
Those who can be sent out are sent to war.
The Shang army remained in one city after another, old, weak, sick and disabled.
When, the momentum of Xia Guojun, came to a city.
When, Chu Xiaodong, the commander of the Chu family army, read the surrender edicts in front of cities with the voice of genuine Qi, which was covered with the jade seal of the Shang emperor.
In Shang Dynasty, the garrison of every city and the people were shocked.
The Shang state is dead?!
The emperor Hu Jianlong surrendered.
How could that be possible?
They don't believe it, but they have to.
Because the imperial edict of surrender with a jade seal will not deceive people.
A garrison of the Shang state quickly surrendered.
And the governors of the city also handed over their official seals in fear.
With him, Chu Xiaodong, the commander of Chu's army, kept running with huangbang.
From one state and province to another.
In front of each city, the emperor's surrender edict was read out.
The news of the demise of the Shang state spread at an explosive speed.
”The Shang state is dead!”
”From then on, there will be no Shang state again!”
”After that, no one can call himself a businessman any more.”
”In this country, there is only one emperor, Ying Xiya.”
”The Hu family is no longer a royal family, but a traitor.”
When the news spread, very few ”patriots” wept bitterly.
In addition, the vast majority of people did not show too excited mood.
Instead, accept the fact.
Like the people in Yunkun City, more people are insensitive and feel that national affairs have nothing to do with ordinary people.
However, the response of some people who are not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court is even more insipid.
For them, the destruction of the Shang state was not as important as getting a sword from their experience.
Xia Guochu army commander, Chu Xiaodong passed by, a state and provincial officials, quickly obedient.
Even the emperor Hu Jianlong surrendered.
They dare not resist.
Speaking of it, Shang people are extremely cruel.
But, in fact, they are all bullies.
They will bully the weak, even think that the butcher city is nothing.
But when they become weak, they have only fear.
He was killed by Xia Guojun for fear of slow surrender.
For them, although the Shang state was destroyed, they could live a carefree life as long as they didn't die and had a lot of money.
The surrender of the emperor was a good thing for them.
Because, in this way, they were spared the war.
Since the Shang state was doomed to perish, it was eventually annexed by Xia state.
So this way, for them, is the best result.
The Shang state was destroyed.
But none of the court officials led people against the Xia army.
Not only did there not resist, but there was even such a scene -
in the afternoon, officials from many cities handed over their official seals to Xia Guojun.
In the evening, they went to the brothel in groups to have fun.
For these fatuous officials, rather than ”immerse” in the grief of the destruction of the country, it is better to hold the singing girls for entertainment and let them sing a beautiful backyard flower
With Hu Jianlong's surrender Edict and Chu Xiaodong's recovery process, unexpectedly smooth.
In only two days, he recovered six prefectures and provinces and collected the official seals of six prefectures.
After leaving two thousand xiaguojun and an assistant general in each state and province to take over the management of the city, Chu Xiaodong returned to Yunkun city.
He looked excited and reported the news to Wang Xiaojian.
Then, under the command of Wang Xiaojian, he kept on, and with Wang Xiaojian, he sent 18000 more troops to him, heading for other states and provinces of the Shang state.
