Please, let me be a fool

The Emperor of Wei must know better than anyone else about this matter, so the other party can take advantage of this to trap Baiyue to death.

After all, this little trade is nothing to Dawei, and he can't die in a winter.

But what about two?What about three?Can they bear it?

But the emperor of Wei, not only did not do this, but provided food and grass for their army, and even directly ordered to continue the trade between the two sides. This series of things can bear the words of benevolence and righteousness.

A magnanimous, generous, benevolent monarch is admired by everyone even if he is an enemy.

Therefore, after thinking for a while, they all chose to speak, and their words were filled with praise and admiration.

What happened to the enemy?For the high-level people like Baiyue, what is is what it is, and there is nothing wrong with admitting it.

The Great Wei Emperor was indeed admired by everyone, and it was right to say something nice.

"Your thoughts are the same as mine."

Hearing what everyone said, Meng Jue also spoke, saying: "Emperor Wei, in my eyes, is a formidable opponent. He doesn't know how to use tricks and tricks. Most of them are schemes. For the first time in the battle, he can clearly defeat me. I was imprisoned, even killed directly, and Baiyue fell into chaos again, but he didn't do that, but let me and the people under him go."

"There is also the Second World War. Even though Emperor Wei knew that he could easily defeat our Baiyue, he did not do so. Restraining his subordinates and not fighting us head-on not only reduced the need for both sides. The loss also gave us a chance to make peace."

"Finally, please make peace. The Emperor Wei came out in person to provide us with food and grass, and continue to open up trade between the two parties."

"In this way, everything he did exceeded my expectations and made me admire."

"Such an emperor is the hero of the world, the king of benevolence and righteousness through the ages!"

Having said that, there was a trace of admiration in his expression.

The others also nodded without refuting.

However, Wang Lin showed a strange look at this moment, as if he had a premonition of what would happen next.

Sure enough, the next moment, Meng Jue looked at the crowd, and said again: "Everyone, if such an emperor can become the real master of my Baiyue?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes widened. They were shocked at first, and then began to think.

Those who can reach the top level today are not simple people.

So when I first heard that sentence, there were many thoughts in my mind.

And Meng Jue continued to speak: "Wang Lin told me before that the Emperor of the Great Wei was a wise ruler who reformed internally and was tough externally. The national power of the Great Wei was already strong. , It can be called a prosperous age. But the Great Wei Emperor was able to go a step further on this basis, eliminate the disadvantages, suppress the gentry, and benefit the people, making the country peaceful and peaceful in the true sense. Such an emperor is too rare. "

"Under his rule, Great Wei will definitely be able to go further and become a powerful dynasty in the true sense. If I, Baiyue, are still free, the gap between the two sides will become wider and wider. One day, even if Baiyue, which has an advantage in terrain, will also be wiped out."

"But if I am Baiyue, can I fully integrate into the Central Plains Dynasty? Will the lives of ordinary people get better and better? Better than before?"

These words made everyone silent.

That's right, the Central Plains Dynasty was already stronger than Baiyue, and the lives of ordinary people were better.

If you compare the people at the bottom, the Baiyue people are not even one-tenth of the lives of the people in the Great Wei Dynasty.

Not only culture, but also various conditions.It is not without reason that the Central Plains Dynasty can be called the Celestial Dynasty.

But what if Baiyue can also integrate into the Celestial Dynasty?

Not to mention anything else, but the lives of the people will definitely be better than before.

"Before, I also wanted to submit to the Great Wei, but I was worried that after Baiyue entered the Great Wei, he would become a low-level person and be trampled by others." Meng Jue continued, saying: "But it is different now. The Emperor of Great Wei is a man of benevolence and righteousness." Lord, as long as they are his subjects, they will be treated equally."

"Since this is the case, so what if I submit Baiyue to the Great Wei Dynasty and become part of the Great Wei Dynasty? Maybe Baiyue will also become another Great Wei Jiangnan because of this?"

The Jiangnan region of the Great Wei Dynasty is synonymous with prosperity and advancement. Even in Baiyue, countless people yearn for it.

Living that kind of life is also what many people desire in their hearts.

For a long time, Meng Jue's idea was to make the people live better after the unification of Baiyue, so that they would no longer be called barbarians.But he is very clear that relying on himself alone, or a generation, is far from being able to achieve this.

But if there is the help of Great Wei and a master like the Great Wei Emperor, it will not be a problem.

Now, he was sure that the Great Wei Emperor would not regard Baiyue as an inferior person.

Plus what happened today.

Meng Jue still made a decision to submit to Wei and fulfill his long-standing goal.

What I have to do now is to persuade the people around me to agree to this matter, otherwise the whole party is not of the same mind, and it is useless to surrender, and it will cause all kinds of troubles.

But now it seems that some people around him are not against this suggestion, he knows that he can do it.

As for what will happen to him after he surrenders to Wei, and whether he can still take power.

Meng Jue didn't have the slightest plan at all.

As long as you can watch Baiyue continue to develop and get rid of the name of barbarian, that's enough.

"So, the Barbarian's intention is to let us submit to the Great Wei?" Wang Lin came out from the side and asked.

"That's right." Meng Jue nodded: "Since there is a better way to make my Baiyue better, why not do it? Of course, this is just a proposal of mine. If you don't agree, I will I won't force it."

After unifying Baiyue, he has unparalleled prestige, but Meng Jue is not willing to use this prestige to suppress his subordinates.

When the other Baiyue senior officials heard the words, they first looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally hesitated, saying.

"I'm waiting, willing to follow the barbarian, regardless of life or death."

Although there is no direct statement.

But their words have already shown that even if Meng Jue chooses to surrender, everyone will not hesitate to join together.

In fact, if everyone were to start a war with Wei, these high-level officials would feel embarrassed.

The emperor of the Wei Dynasty opened up trade and gave food.

That's basically a benefactor.

It is true that they have not received the teachings of Confucianism, but they also understand the principle of distinguishing between grievances and resentments, and knowing how to repay kindness.

Now that Meng Jue just proposed to surrender, in the eyes of everyone, it was not unacceptable.They also feel it is a blessing to have a monarch like the Great Wei Emperor.

"Okay, thank you all!"

After hearing what they said, Meng Jue was suddenly moved and bowed slightly.

Then, he took a deep breath, looked at the crowd, and said: "Well, everyone, come with me, and then go back to Zhennan Pass and surrender!"

After finishing speaking, he led his [-] troops and rushed towards Zhennan Pass.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Wei Yunyi sat on the dragon chariot with a relaxed expression.

Possible

Especially Song Gongwen, Lin Yuansong and Lu An kept moaning and sighing.

Meng Jue, the lord of Baiyue, took the initiative to surrender. What a victory was that?None of the dynasties of the Central Plains has done it.If you accept it, it will at least guarantee the stability of the southern border for decades, but Your Majesty just refuses to accept it.

It's fine if you don't accept it, but Your Majesty has to provide food and grass to the hundred army and open up trade.

If it were someone else, all three would suspect that the other party was collaborating with the enemy.

But this is His Majesty

Of course, the three of them still don't quite understand it, and feel that this is too unreasonable. How can there be such a war? They have never seen it before.

They thought that this time Meng Jue went back, he had no worries and had food and grass as support, and the next time he was in war, he would definitely be more difficult to deal with, bringing the war to a stalemate.

In this way, all previous efforts were in vain.

Therefore, the three of them thought that when they returned to the palace, they must remonstrate His Majesty once again.

Taking advantage of Meng Jue getting the grain and grass but not gaining a firm foothold, he sent a large army of Jin Xun to pursue him. In this way, the situation can be reversed.

It's just that doing so can at most be regarded as a remedy after a dead sheep, and it may be impossible to regain the same advantage as before.

So now they are all frowning, and they don't understand why His Majesty is still so happy.

"Report!" But at this moment, a messenger soldier suddenly came up behind him on a fast horse. He came to the front and back of the dragon chariot, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Report to Your Majesty, my lords and generals ! The Baiyue army once again sent troops to attack me at the South Pass, I don't know what they want to do!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked and their faces were ugly.

Song Gongwen and others felt that it must be because of the supply of food and grass that Meng Jue felt powerful enough to meet Da Wei again.

Otherwise, how could he choose to turn back as soon as he got the food and grass?It must be so.

Lu An even stepped out, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this Meng Jue is too deceitful, let me lead the army to attack!"

He had already let go of the Baiyue Army, but now he came again. The clay figurine also had a three-point temper, and with today's aggrieved, he couldn't bear it anymore, and wanted to take action to teach Meng Jue and the Baiyue Army a lesson.

"here we go again?"

Wei Yunyi didn't answer the other party's words, but fell into deep thought.

What kind of brain is this Meng Jue, just after receiving supplies, he turned around and continued to attack Zhennan Pass?

Even if the rear is safe, the Baiyue army is not good at siege after all, the advantage is not obvious, why do they still come?

After thinking for a while, he looked at the crowd, and then said: "Don't be in a hurry, follow me to the top of the city to have a look."

At this time, it is naturally impossible to open the city gate.

Wei Yunyi knew very well that if the opponent really wanted to continue the fight, opening the city gate would undoubtedly be a bad idea, so he went to the top of the city to see what the opponent was going to do.

Of course, he felt that Meng Jue definitely wanted to fight Wei with this move, which made him happy.

As long as the fight continues.

soon.

Everyone turned their heads and went up to Zhennanguan City.

Sure enough, the hundreds of troops below seemed to be preparing for battle, and the barbarian Meng Jue took the lead, with a firm expression on his face.

Seeing this scene, both Lu An, Song Gongwen and others were extremely angry in their hearts. In their view, this Meng Jue is acting like a good boy after taking advantage of it, and he must be taught a lesson.

As for Wei Yunyi, he didn't say much, just looked down, and immediately said directly: "Meng Jue, the barbarian, what do you want to do when you go and come back?"

His voice was so loud that it reached the ears of the Hundred Great Army below.

After Meng Jue heard the words, he took a deep breath, and led all his men to get off the horse.

The next moment, he knelt on the ground and said in unison: "The Emperor of Great Wei is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. He is a wise king through the ages. I, Meng Jue, admire him in my heart. This time, I brought nearly 6 soldiers under him, representing hundreds of tribes, to surrender to Great Wei." , I implore His Majesty the Great Wei Emperor to include Baiyue into the Great Wei territory!"

After speaking, he bowed directly to the ground.

The Baiyue higher-ups in the back knelt on the ground without any hesitation.

Baiyue submits to Wei!

Chapter 223 What Your Majesty Wants Is Not Victory, But Complete Conquest

Outside Zhennan Pass, [-] troops knelt down together.

The leader was Meng Jue, who commanded Baiyue and was regarded as the lord of the barbarians.

He lowered his head, kneeling on the ground like all the high-level officials, expressing his submission.

The hundreds of troops behind them did not have any resistance to this.Because Meng Jue's prestige in these people's hearts is quite high, and submitting to the Great Wei is not something unacceptable to them.

All in all, whatever the barbarians want to do, they will follow and agree.

Therefore, now everyone is kneeling outside Zhennan Pass, and none of them disobeys or has any objections.

But at this time, on the top of Zhennanguan City, when everyone heard Meng Jue's words, they all had expressions of disbelief.

Lu An looked down, the existence that once made him feel extremely troublesome, and was named a barbarian by Baiyue, unexpectedly, at this time, chose...

Song Gongwen and Lin Yuansong looked at each other even more, and both saw the shock in each other's eyes.

They didn't know Meng Jue well, but they knew Baiyue very well.

A place that all dynasties of the Central Plains could not conquer.

Although it is not a great enemy, it can be regarded as a confidant's trouble, like a steel needle, which will threaten the southern border of Great Wei at any time.

Of course, as civil servants, they will consider more things, not just for strategic purposes, but also for governance purposes.There are many mountains and rivers in Baiyue, but there are also plain areas with abundant rainfall, which is conducive to the growth of various plants.

If it is used well, it can completely echo with the Jiangnan area, allowing the imperial court to go further economically.

More importantly, the south of Baiyue is close to the sea, and if Baiyue is conquered, there will be more outlets to the sea.

Even if it's useless now, it's not necessarily the future.
