Chapter 99: Destroying a Country is Like Going on a Picnic

Chu Zhao saw that the time was almost right, so he waved his hand again and said loudly to the guards:

"Catch all these traitors who are plotting rebellion for me! Take them to the city gate and behead them in public! Anyone who can capture one alive will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver! Anyone who dares to shrink back will be killed without mercy!"

Immediately, Hu Guilin and others stood in front of Chu Zhao with knives in hand, looking at the palace guards with murderous intent.

These people dared not hesitate and rushed forward one after another.

One is to get the reward, the other is to save your life.

Chu Zhao's shout aroused the ministers' rage. Damn it, it seems that the Turkic royal family is doomed!

It was a pity that the soldiers they brought with them had no weapons and had been busy all night, so they were already exhausted and could not compete with the well-trained palace guards.

In a short while, all the ministers were captured alive.

He was escorted to the city gate by the palace guards.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried horse hooves.

Some people even shouted: "Oh no! The Han army has entered the city!"

Gu Xi was seen leading the way, leading a thousand soldiers who had been recuperating for several days and galloping forward with the force of a tiger.

At this moment, she has regained Qi Dasheng's appearance, holding a 98K in her hand. The thousand soldiers behind her each hold a shining sword, and they are full of fighting spirit and unstoppable.

They rushed into Suiye City like a whirlwind with almost no effort.

The soldiers guarding the gate were unarmed. Faced with such a powerful army, who would dare to step forward to stop them?

Isn't that like hitting a rock with an egg?

They just ran away.

Who says war is always like "The bones by the river are pitiful, but they are still the people in the spring girl's dream."

Who says that soldiers must be "drunk on the battlefield? Don't laugh at me. How many have ever returned from a battle in history?"

They are not!

From using heavenly thunder to chase the 150,000 strong Turkic army, to the defeat and dispersal of the Turkic army, to now taking over the Turkic capital, they did it as if it were a piece of cake, without even a slight injury.

They eat well and sleep well every day, and it is easier for these thousand people to destroy a country than to go on a picnic.

When he got close to the palace, Gu Xi fired a shot into the sky and shouted:

"We are the Northwest Army of An Ning. We are here only to capture the Turkic royal family. All unrelated people should get out of the way! Anyone who dares to protect the Turkic royal family will be killed without mercy!"

Although the country was about to face destruction, the ministers and people in the city did not show too much grief and regret at this moment.

They had long hated the Turkic Khan, and these ministers even believed that it was the Han army that saved their lives.

Chu Zhao, who had caused such a big commotion, ran towards the palace with Hu Guilin and others.

After returning, they immediately removed their disguises, dragged Ashina Shalu and his Khatun out of the secret room, sealed their mouths with tape, and marched them out.

At this moment, Gu Xi had already captured the second prince and the third prince. He led his troops into the palace and arrested all of Ashina Shalu's concubines and other children.

They found a dozen prison vans and paraded them around the city.

While parading in the streets, Chu Zhao also shouted:

"People of Suiye City, there is no need to panic! This general solemnly declares that our Northwest Army will never harm the people in the slightest, let alone rob any property!"

"However, the Turkic royal family has committed many evil deeds and killed countless people in our country. We must bring them back to Anning State to receive the due punishment!"

"Except for the Turkic royal family, everyone in the city will be safe as long as you behave yourself!"

It is easy to capture a city, but difficult to capture the hearts of the people.

Therefore, when Gu Xi entered the city, the swords in the hands of the thousand soldiers only served as a deterrent, and no blood was shed.

It is very important to reassure the people at this moment.

The Turkic people already hated Ashina Shalu, and when they saw him being paraded through the streets by the Han army, not only did no one want to rescue them, but instead they took out rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves and threw them at the prison van.

"Smash this damn old guy to death! He was the one who sent people to steal my food last night!"

Someone started it, and the others followed suit, cursing as they did so:

"This incompetent Khan who only knows how to exploit the people deserves to be captured by the Han army!"

"The Han army is better than the royal family. We can get back the supplies that were robbed last night as long as we register!"

……

For the common people, it doesn’t matter who is the king, as long as they can live a stable life.

Ashina Shalu was beaten badly, his mouth was sealed with tape, and he could only make "wuwu" sounds, but no one paid attention to what he wanted to say.

There was flames of anger burning in the eyes of his people, but not towards the Han soldiers, but towards him.

What happened?

A thousand soldiers took over Suiye City. Now they were the only ones in the city with weapons. Although they were few in number, they did not have to worry about the people in the city rebelling.

Gu Xi and Chu Zhao summoned the Turkic ministers and came to the Council of State.

The ministers looked at the Major General of the Northwest Army and Captain Qi who were sitting at the top with trepidation. For some reason, this scene seemed a little familiar.

Chu Zhao glanced around sharply, and then said:

"I know you all come from different tribes. After Suiye City is returned to Anning State, as long as you know what's best for you, you can still be your officials."

"Please also send a message back to your tribal leaders. Those who sincerely submit will not be treated badly by the Anning Kingdom, but those who intend to rebel will be struck by lightning."

"Oh, you may not have seen the power of heavenly thunder, but I believe that those warriors who have suffered defeat will report to your leader after returning."

The people on the prairie are not the same as the Han people. The Han people have been influenced by the ideas of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism for thousands of years. When their country is destroyed, there will always be a group of people who stick to their integrity and would rather break than bend.

But the people on the prairie admire the strong ideologically. If they want them to submit, they have to be stronger than them.

The thunder from the sky is like a sword hanging over their heads. I believe no fool would dare to confront them.

This is like modern nuclear weapons. As long as a country possesses this deadly weapon, it can form a powerful deterrent to the surrounding forces that are eyeing it covetously and can deter villains.

Chu Zhao also asked everyone how the supplies from the grassland tribes were transported to Suiye City.

Any minister who wanted to please Chu Zhao immediately confessed.

It turns out that the desert route is not the only way to enter Suiye City.

To the north of Suiye City, there is a road that only the locals know about.

It was a flat grassland with only a few miles of desert on the edge. The Turkic soldier who brought the message came from there. Otherwise, if he walked through the desert, even if he didn't get lost, it would take more than ten days. How could he get to Suiye City so quickly?

Chu Zhao immediately arranged a few people to set out from the north of Suiye City with a map to report to General Chu and ask him to arrange the garrison in Suiye City.
