: Loyal ministers do not serve the second masters

Seeing that Dong Jing was anxious, Li Yun said without any haste: "I believe you should know that Liang State gathered troops in the Xixia region and was ready to attack Guzhu State at any time. I guess you knew it long ago?"

Dong Jing looked at Li Yun calmly and said, "I know very well about this. The reason is that after you occupied Guzhu Kingdom, your ambitions were not satisfied. He also attacked the small countries in the northern Western Regions, and finally annexed them all, which caused fear of the countries in the southern Western Regions. So they asked for help from Liang Kingdom and paid for you, right?"

This refutation made Li Yun's cheeks flush slightly.

"Mr. Li, things have reached this point. In addition to spitting out all the land in the northern Western Regions, you may be able to stop Liang's attack on Guzhu and protect the safety of the people of Guzhu. If you insist on doing your own thing, you will have to dream of being the overlord. I can tell you clearly that your fate will only be even worse in the future."

This sentence was like a thorn piercing deep into Li Yun's chest. No matter how good his cultivation was, he could not bear such humiliation.

He pointed at Dong Jing and shouted, "Old man, I have given you face again and again, you are really arrogant! Do you think I really dare not control you?"

Dong Jing was not afraid at all, and shouted in front of Li Yun's gaze: "Thieves, you killed Your Majesty who was as kind as a mountain to you, seized the throne of Guzhu Kingdom, and fought for years, which caused heavy losses to the people of Guzhu Kingdom. Now that it is at the critical moment, you invite me to come here, just to help you stabilize the hearts of Guzhu people, so that they will die for you wholeheartedly. I am here to tell you clearly that I will never help you!"

Li Yun's face became gloomy and his hands clenched into fists.

During the period after seizing Guzhu Kingdom, the civil resistance forces of Guzhu Kingdom had always existed. They kept attacking his regime. When they were most powerful, they almost overthrew him, but later they were suppressed by him.

In order to retaliate against the people of Guzhu and to enhance his strength, Li Yun kept recruiting the people of Guzhu into the army and followed him to fight south and north.

In the battle to seize the territories of the northern Western Regions, the people of Guzhu Kingdom died in battle.

If we want to fight against Liang State this time, relying on the existing 300,000 troops is not enough, and we still need to recruit soldiers.

But the people of Guzhu Kingdom have reached their limits. As for the people who have just occupied the territory of other countries, their loyalty to Li Yun is even worse than that of Guzhu Kingdom.

The only one who can trust the people of Guzhu Kingdom is Dong Jing, the former prime minister.

Now, Dong Jing clearly rejected him, wishing he could perish.

"I ask you the last time, would you be willing to cooperate with me? If you are willing, you will still be your prime minister. Not only that, I can also entrust you a piece of land from the occupied land. But if you are unwilling to help me, you should know your fate, right?"

Li Yun had reached his limit and he couldn't hold on.

Dong Jing looked at Li Yun in pain, but there was no trace of pleasure. If he killed Li Yun, his ex-Guzhu King would not come back.

What he felt was the pain of was the people of Guzhu Country, and everything they had no choice but to do.

"Mr. Li, kill me, I am the subject of the previous king. The previous king died at your hands, and I was unable to avenge him. I felt very guilty when I felt nervous. Now I cannot protect the people of Guzhu Kingdom. To me, living is a suffering. Only by dying can I be worthy of the previous king and the people."

Li Yun took off the sword from the wall and pulled it out to aim it at Dong Jing.

Dong Jing was not afraid at all, but instead sent his neck to him and said, "Come on, please kill me with one sword."

Li Yun did not kill Dong Jing, and his hand holding the sword was trembling constantly.

Finally, he threw the sword down and sighed: "What else can someone who is not afraid of death threaten him? Mr. Dong, go, I won't kill you. But Guzhu Kingdom will soon become a battlefield, so you should leave here quickly and find a hidden place to hide."

Dong Jing looked at Li Yun. At this moment, Li Yun was different from before, and there was not too much murderous aura in his eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll find a hidden place to live."

Dong Jing left this and turned around and left.

...

Since Tang Long and others are now mainly responsible for manufacturing warships, railway transportation was forced to be interrupted. Now railway transportation is only built to Liao, and there is no railway transportation in the Western Xia area, let alone the Western Regions.

Connecting these two areas can only be the most primitive roads, with the main means of transportation being horse and donkey carts.

Wu Tian led 100,000 troops to join Hua Rong and Guan Sheng to enter the Western Regions.

When countries in the Western Regions saw that it was Liang's troops, they took the initiative to switch and give up the main passage, so that Wu Tian and his group could enter.

Soon, Guan Sheng of the Pioneer Army led 100,000 troops and 500 red-clothed cannons to the border of Guzhu Kingdom.

He originally thought that Guzhu Country would have people to resist, but after reaching the border, everything was quiet.

This surprised Guan Sheng slightly. The scene in front of him really made him feel weird.

He said to Guan Lin, the deputy general beside him: "Go and lead a team of people in and see who else is inside, and catch me."

Guan Lin led his troops to do it.

Soon, Guan Lin came back and bowed to Guan Sheng: "Father, the child led his men and horses to search in the city for a long time, but he didn't find any of them. They should have escaped in advance."

"Escape?" Guan Sheng frowned slightly, "Will the Guzhu Kingdom leave without fighting?"

Guan Lin bowed and said, "According to the child, this is indeed the case."

Guan Sheng pondered for a while and said, "Tell the army to occupy several cities on the border, and then order people to report the situation here to Your Majesty."

A hundred thousand army drove into the city, occupied several cities, and comforted the army.

Afterwards, Guan Lin personally went to greet Wu Tian and told him about the situation in Guzhu Kingdom.

When Wu Tian heard that all the people in Guzhu had escaped, he frowned slightly, pondered for a while, waved to Dai Zong over, and said, "This matter is left to you to deal with. Be sure to find out where these people have gone?"

Dai Zong nodded and turned around and left.

Soon, Dai Zong found the news and came to report.

"Your Majesty, long before we attacked Guzhu Kingdom, Li Yun ordered that everyone be moved to the north of Mobei, as if he wanted to fight guerrilla warfare with us."

Wu Tian smiled and said to Guan Lin: "The South Vietnam Kingdom doesn't have a chance to fight guerrilla warfare. He, a small Guzhu Kingdom, wants to play with me. Okay, I will play with him and order Guan Sheng to take down all the cities of Guzhu Kingdom. I have my own way to deal with them."

Guan Lin nodded and bowed down.

With Wu Tian’s order, Guan Sheng was not polite and soon occupied all the territory of Guzhu Kingdom.
