The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.
Chapter 35 The commander is dead; those who surrender will not be killed!
"Your Majesty, Xiang Ji has already entered the city, and the defending general and the prefect have both been killed by him!"
"Make a decision quickly! We must leave now, surrender to the Jurchens, and submit to them. Only by having them protect us might we have a glimmer of hope, Your Majesty!"
Qin Hui urged him repeatedly.
Lin'an Prefecture was not without garrison troops; on the contrary, in the entire Song Dynasty, the combat strength of the 50,000 garrison troops in Lin'an was absolutely top-notch.
Yet even this elite force of 50,000, when facing Xiang Yu as their enemy, held out for less time than the Jin dynasty in the old capital of Bianjing.
Xiang Yu could attack wherever he pointed and kill whomever he wanted.
No matter if there are dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of people in front of him, nothing can stop him.
The garrison commander died in this way, and the prefect died in the same way!
This is a tactic unique to Xiang Yu: capture the king first, kill all the enemies in front of you, and the king behind them will naturally be revealed.
That long halberd shattered the morale of the defending troops in a short period of time.
In the present Song Dynasty, who has ever encountered an enemy as powerful as a demon god descending to earth?
"But, with Lin'an lost, will the Jurchens still be willing to protect me?"
Zhao Gou quickly asked.
"Yes, after all, His Majesty is the rightful Son of Heaven, and Xiang Yu would never do what His Majesty does, sending annual tributes to the Jurchens. If Xiang Yu gains the world, it will not benefit them in the slightest, but will instead pose a great threat!"
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, this matter will be entrusted to this old minister to negotiate with the Jurchens. I will certainly not disappoint Your Majesty!"
Seeing Qin Hui's confident demeanor, Zhao Gou hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"Then let it be as you say, my dear minister. Prime Minister Qin, do not betray my trust. What I want is not just escape, but the death of Xiang Ji!"
"Once we reach the Jin Kingdom, you must find a way to persuade them to launch a counterattack against Xiang Ji. As long as Xiang Ji is dead, I will give them whatever they want, even Lin'an!"
Zhao Gou was not truly stupid; he knew very well that as long as he still held the title of emperor, he might still be of value to the Jurchens.
The Jurchens needed to exploit the Song Dynasty by using his title as emperor, and this title also allowed him to continue living a life of extravagance!
"Xiang Ji attacked Bianjing first, and the Jurchens must already be dissatisfied with him. Please entrust the task of persuading the Jurchens to counterattack Xiang Ji to this old minister. I will not let Your Majesty down!"
"But Your Majesty, this means that the previous thirty million taels might not be enough!"
Qin Hui's gaze drifted towards the inner treasury.
He knew that it was Zhao Gou's private treasury.
"I still have tens of millions of taels in my imperial treasury. Take them with me and give them all to the Jurchens. If they need provisions, levy them in my name, and we will surely be able to collect a considerable amount!"
Zhao Gou did not hesitate at all this time.
As a dog, it's only right for it to give its owner benefits and get them to help it steal things!
"We're really sick of looking at this, Xiang Ji, please don't let this bastard get away!"
Old Zhu looked at the image split into two parts on the sky.
On one side, many loyal ministers and generals who advocated war were still fighting desperately against Xiang Yu's army, and even occasionally found opportunities to launch counterattacks.
Meanwhile, Zhao Gou was discussing with Qin Hui what posture to use to kneel before the Jurchens.
That damn emperor is not only stupid and wicked, but he's also damn blind!
The Southern Song Dynasty clearly had many loyal ministers and capable generals. If they had been used well, they could not only have recovered lost territory, but also washed away past humiliations and even re-established a unified dynasty!
But Zhao Gou was fixated on Qin Hui.
What?
Did Qin Hui save your life?
"I'm afraid we can't stop them. Given Zhao Gou and Qin Hui's personalities, they will definitely leave a way out for their escape. He's good at this, after all, they were chased by the Jurchens for so long."
Li Er also wanted Xiang Yu to kill the two men in Lin'an.
However, it is not difficult to know from the previous introduction of the immortal that Zhao Gou had no other skills, but his ability to escape was first-rate.
He had managed to escape from the Jurchens several times before, and now he had many capable generals helping him hold off Xiang Yu. There was no reason why he couldn't escape.
"At the very least, we can't let him take the silver from the imperial treasury; that's all the people's hard-earned money!"
Those were all taxes collected by Zhao Gou under various pretexts!
When the people paid their taxes, they thought the court would use the money to recover the old capital and fight the Jurchens!
No one expected that the money would be completely divided up by high-ranking officials!
Even Emperor Zhao Gou led the way in dividing the spoils!
"You're overthinking it. No one can stop someone from taking something as portable as a silver note, but he deliberately exchanged the silver in the imperial treasury for rare treasures, so he can't take it with him!"
If we were to say who understood Xiang Yu best, it would undoubtedly be Liu Bang.
Although the Song ministers who are fighting desperately against Xiang Yu have done their best, they definitely cannot hold out for long!
At least they weren't enough to last until Zhao Gou emptied the imperial treasury!
As if to confirm Liu Bang's statement, a look of impatience appeared on Xiang Yu's face.
"what happened!"
"Back then, even the Qin army couldn't stop my advance, Xiang Ji, yet now they can't even break through these weak Song soldiers?!"
"My lads, are you going to become cowards after defeating the Qin army?"
"I will take the head of the enemy commander. Can you keep up with me?"
Xiang Yu raised his hand and pointed, and the official pointed at trembled.
He wanted to argue that he wasn't a commander.
But the battlefield was so chaotic that even if he spoke, Xiang Yu would likely not hear him.
Upon hearing these words, the soldiers of Jiangdong under Xiang Yu's command all blushed with embarrassment.
It was shame, and it was anger!
"We will follow in Xiang Yu's footsteps and never retreat a single step!"
With a roar, the suspense of this battle was completely extinguished!
No one could stop Xiang Yu, which meant that no one could stop his troops!
The man appointed by Xiang Yu as the commander-in-chief didn't even last a single round against him before his head fell directly into Xiang Yu's hands.
"The commander is dead; those who surrender will not be killed!"
The next moment, these words resounded throughout Lin'an.
Everyone in the court knew that Xiang Yu had not killed the commander-in-chief.
But they also know that it's pointless to argue now.
Their only option was to flee; if they didn't surrender, they would be slaughtered like pigs.
In the imperial palace's inner treasury.
Zhao Gou, who was taking stock of his belongings, also heard the deafening roar.
Not only were Xiang Yu's troops roaring, but many civilians also followed suit to cheer them on.
Lin'an, just like that, fell?
Before Zhao Gou could react, Qin Hui rushed in and dragged him out.
"Your Majesty, run! We can't take anything from the Imperial Treasury. Xiang Ji has already led his men in!"
Could the imperial guards in the palace stop Xiang Yu?
joke!
"Ah? This is all my savings."
Zhao Gou was reluctant to leave.
"If we don't leave now, we'll be dead. Don't worry, Your Majesty. Just leave these things with Xiang Ji. Sooner or later, the Jurchens will fight back for us!"
