Chapter 532: Liyang is not popular anymore! Western Chu is restored!
Zhang Bianguan didn't expect that the old man would ask him to go to Beiliang as soon as he arrived.
It’s not like the news of Beiliang’s rebellion hasn’t spread.
Zhang Bianguan naturally knew the current situation in Beiliang.
Zhang Julu's words clearly meant that he wanted his youngest son to surrender to the enemy!
Zhang Bianguan looked at Zhang Julu and said, "Please tell me clearly! What is going on?"
Zhang Julu shook his head and said, "The situation has completely collapsed. Liyang will be destroyed at any moment. In the past, I intended to change the situation in this world, and even intended to sacrifice my life to make the poor rise up and break the monopoly of the aristocratic families in the world. But now it seems that there is no need to do so. In the future, this world is not something I can worry about."
Although Zhang Julu was loyal to Li Yang, he became Li Yang's famous prime minister.
But he himself was born into a poor family, and his greatest wish in life was to change the situation where it was difficult for poor families to produce talented children.
When Zhang Julu became the prime minister and taught many disciples.
In fact, his wish has been half fulfilled.
As for the next half, it was to use his death to alert those poor disciples who had suddenly ascended to a higher position.
This is also the reason why Zhang Julu's entire family was confiscated later in the storyline in the snow.
The new emperor ascended the throne, which is naturally the reason.
But with Zhang Julu's wisdom and reputation.
He is fully capable of getting away with it.
The reason why Zhang Julu did not retreat was to prevent people from poor families from becoming complacent after suddenly rising to a high position.
But this kind of thing no longer makes any sense now.
The building will collapse.
What is the so-called ambition and pattern? !
Zhang Bianguan looked at Zhang Julu in a daze. He finally understood why Zhang Julu had told them to marry wives from humble families. It was obvious that he had anticipated that the Zhang family would not have a good ending in the future, so he wanted to avoid getting involved too much. However, he was more concerned about Zhang Julu's current actions and words: "What do you mean by destruction overnight?"
"Although Beiliang is powerful, even if they occupy the southeastern territory."
"The foundation and strength of the Liyang Dynasty are still enough to compete with Beiliang."
"not to mention...."
Zhang Bianguan also gave some examples.
Zhang Julu waved his hand and said, "If you ask me to give you an example, I can give you countless examples of how Li Yang couldn't be destroyed so easily, but the fact is that Li Yang no longer has the power to fight back. Even the old monster hidden in Li Yang has come out openly today to stabilize the situation. This is an absolute gap in strength."
"Below Wuling City, Chen Zhibao led a 100,000-man Dragon Elephant Army and destroyed the 300,000 elite troops led by Gu Jiantang in half a day. In terms of military, Li Yang no longer had the strength to compete. Even if he gathered a million troops, could he really resist the fierce Dragon Elephant Army and the Snow Dragon Cavalry?! This is one of them!"
"In the court today, the 42 immortals from the Heavenly Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain who descended to the mortal world were easily slaughtered. Even the evil dragon that Zhao Huangchao raised with the luck of Western Chu was suppressed by one hand! In addition to Li Chungang and Wang Xianzhi, who are the number one and number two in the world, Beiliang also has a truly top master."
"Now, it seems that everyone in the southeast has surrendered. Even the Wu family sword tomb that had been on Li Yang's side before has probably surrendered to Bei Liang. The deterrent power of the Li Yang Dynasty has been reduced to the extreme. How can there be any hope of turning things around? Even Li Yang himself only placed his hopes on Bei Mang, hoping to rely on Bei Mang to suppress Bei Liang!"
"How ridiculous is this?! Not to mention what will happen after Western Chu is restored?"
"Don't forget, the Qingzhou territory was originally the location of the old Western Chu Kingdom!"
Although Zhang Julu did not have as much information as Yuan Benxi.
But he had a very clear view of the situation.
Let’s just talk about the current strength comparison between Li Yang and Bei Liang.
Li Yang was already at a disadvantage.
Whether it is the military or top masters.
Li Yangdu is far from being a match for Beiliang.
Li Yang's only advantage is that it has been established for nearly a hundred years, and the foundation and reputation it has accumulated are strong enough. However, after the fall of Longhu Mountain, Li Yang's reputation is no longer of much use. In the final analysis, people's minds have changed!
Why did the young eunuch stand out so openly? It was because he could no longer control the situation. He could only use his identity and strength to stabilize the situation. But because of this, Zhang Julu saw Li Yang's weakness. What's more, the matter of joining forces with Beimang was even more of a bad move!
Let’s not talk about whether Beimang can suppress Beiliang by going south.
Even if Beimang suppressed Beiliang.
But the world in the future will have little to do with Li Yang.
At most, Li Yang could only live in seclusion and be a vassal king.
The most important thing is whether Beimang can suppress Beiliang? !
This seems difficult to Zhang Julu.
The Liang and Mang peoples have been fighting for nearly twenty years!
Among these, Beimang has never set foot in Beiliang.
This was when Li Yang was deliberately suppressing Beiliang, and Xu Xiao alone took on all the pressure from Beimang. Under the current situation, how could Beimang suppress Beiliang?
Zhang Bianguan felt a chill in his limbs after hearing this. He couldn't help but ask, "Has the situation come to this?"
From what he heard in Tai'an City, he could not tell that Li Yang was in such a precarious situation.
Zhang Julu shook his head and said, "If not, how could I let you go to Beiliang? Although your father has been the chief minister of Liyang for many years, he has some tacit understanding with Xu Xiao in private. For my old face, he should be able to accept you, and maybe he can let you get some wealth in the future. Your eldest brother and second brother can do the same."
Zhang Bianguan was stunned: "We are all gone, what will you do?"
The enemy is at hand!
All the family members of the Prime Minister went to Beiliang.
This is definitely an act bordering on treason.
Zhang Julu raised his head and looked towards the palace: "Someone will have to stay and die for the country. Moreover, since your father has been a role model for the poor family all these years, you can't leave at this time. You also need to keep a low profile after you go to Beiliang. When Liyang is destroyed in the future, you can do whatever you want."
He just doesn't want his bloodline to be cut off.
Secondly, it’s been so many years.
After all, we need to leave something for our children and grandchildren.
.................
Even Zhang Julu, the Prime Minister of Liyang, could see the situation.
This is especially true for the major aristocratic families in the southeast.
On the day when Longhu Mountain was destroyed.
All these aristocratic families surrendered to Beiliang.
And after Cao Changqing restored the Western Chu in Qingzhou.
It received countless responses instantly.
Some of these people are speculators and surrenderers.
But there are also real survivors of Western Chu.
It has only been a few decades since the fall of Western Chu.
There are certainly people who care enough about Xi Chu.
Especially Cao Changqing's momentum to restore the country has won the support of everyone...
