447 Chapter 440-the one who understands the times

After receiving a letter from his motherland in the North and learning that Xu City had been breached, Zheng Yu’s first reaction was not anger, nor was he at a loss.

On the contrary, the emotions that rose in his heart even carried a hint of relief.

This kind of feeling even made him feel a little guilty. After all, he was great Wei’s Marquis Xuanwu, one of great Wei’s two Dharma powers, the pillar of the country. It was a little inappropriate to have such emotions.

However, one had to be honest with one’s heart. After knowing that xudu had been broken through and that great Wei had surrendered unconditionally, he had indeed felt fortunate.

He was glad that the situation he was most worried about did not happen. In the end, His Excellency the general still made a wise choice.

What he was most afraid of was that Xia Cang would lead the people of Wei to fight to the death with the people of Yan Kingdom even though he knew that he was no match for them. If that happened, everything would be over.

Zheng Yu had always been a firm supporter of general Xia Cang in the Wei Kingdom. A long time ago, he had been able to climb up the ranks in the Wei state’s system step by step. His cultivation base had been raised step by step, and he had received a large amount of resources from the state. It was all inseparable from Xia Cang’s appreciation and support.

Of course, he was very grateful for this, and he had always been loyal to the general. Even after he became a Dharma adept, he was used to being Xia Cang’s assistant and subordinate. He had no ambition to establish his own mountain.

In his opinion, under the leadership of the wise and powerful general Xia Cang, the Wei State was full of martial virtue and strong National Strength. Wasn’t that enough?

However, all of this began to change gradually after Lu Qing appeared.

Especially after the battle at Dongyang temple, he had a deeper understanding of Lu Qing’s power. He gradually developed some differences in opinions with Xia Cang.

Like Xia Cang, he felt that Lu Qing was unparalleled. However, the difference between the two was that Xia Cang felt that no matter what, he couldn’t just sit back and wait for death. Even if he couldn’t win, he had to try something, such as forming an alliance with foreign aid, or finding a favorable location to defend the Suan ni. In short, he still had to give it a try.

On the other hand, Zheng Yu’s thoughts were more pessimistic.

He felt that he could not go all out against Lu Qing.

Perhaps the best fate for the Wei Kingdom was to strive for a relatively peaceful situation and connect with the Yan and Qi kingdoms. Under the premise of peace, as long as the two sides did not fight, there was still room for negotiation. They could fight for very good conditions. It was not impossible to retain the name of the Wei Kingdom and the status of the CAO royal family.

However, within the Wei State, the person who had the final say was still the great general Xia Cang. Zheng Yu’s right to speak was definitely inferior to the great general’s.

What’s more, he felt that his thoughts were rational. He also felt that he was wholeheartedly doing this for the country and that it was the best solution for the future of the Wei country.

However, even so, he thought rationally that it would be impossible if he dared to put forward his own ideas in public. Such a pessimistic and surrendering idea would definitely be opposed by all.

He had tried to hint his thoughts to Xia Cang, but it was useless. Even though he had only said it in such a vague way, Xia Cang’s attitude was very intense.

What else could he do? Zheng Yu could only bury his own thoughts in his heart.

When he heard that the Yan Army had headed south to attack the Wei Kingdom and that Lu Qing had clearly taken action personally after Xu capital was breached, his heart was in his throat.

But fortunately, the worst situation did not really happen. In the end, Xia Cang didn’t completely abandon the imperial family and the people of Wei and chose to fight to the end. Instead, he followed the general trend and chose to surrender.

However, the so-called ‘unconditional’ surrender would be dealt with by the Lu family. It would be up to the Lu family to decide what to do with it. However, this was still much better than the outcome of everyone dying.

......

Looking at the dejected cultivators from the Wei Kingdom who had all given up on resistance, especially Zheng Yu who was at the front, Weiyun and Lu Chaohe felt as if everything was unreal.

Did the Wei country really surrender?

The Wei Kingdom, once the main enemy in the South of Great Yan, backed by the defense line along the great river, had suppressed Yan Kingdom to the point of suffocation in the past years, was finished just like that?

However, no matter how unrealistic it was, this matter had already been set in stone.

Earlier on, they had received news of what had happened in xudu and had asked them to be prepared to accept the surrender of the Wei Army led by Zheng Yu.

They were actually very worried about whether Zheng Yu would be so obedient.

As the saying goes, when a general is outside, the emperor’s orders are not obeyed. Would they really surrender obediently?

The destruction of a country and the surrender of the Emperor and the great general was certainly a very, very sudden matter for the people of the country who were on an expedition. For a moment, they might not be able to accept it and do some irrational things or continue to resist. These were all very normal situations.

If the Wei Army did not surrender, Weiyun and Lu Chaohe would not have any good ideas to deal with them.

After all, no matter what, the current situation in the Wu country was not favorable for the Yan Qi Alliance. The internal affairs of the main force of Qi state were still in turmoil, and Chu State was eyeing covetously from the West. If Zheng Yu really didn’t care about anything else and insisted on causing trouble with the Chu people, it would really be very troublesome.

However, to his surprise, Zheng Yu surrendered very quickly.

Weiyun and Lu Chaohe did not know what Zheng Yu was thinking, but no matter what, this was a great thing.

They didn’t mistreat the surrendered Wei soldiers.

At the northern border of Wu State, a large area was marked out. The spirit vein here would temporarily become the garrison of Wei state’s troops led by Zheng Yu.

The protective formations of these spirit veins had all been destroyed and dismantled. As long as these Wei cultivators stayed in the spirit vein and did not try to rebuild the great formation protecting the mountain, leave the mountain collectively, or make any strange movements, they could do whatever they wanted in this area without any restrictions.

The Yan Qi alliance only left a small troop to monitor the situation of these people who surrendered.

The team led by Zheng Yu was quite honest.

The situation in the North had settled down. To the Yan Qi Alliance Army, this huge threat had been removed. After that, they could finally focus the majority of their forces on the southwest direction to confront Chu.
