The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 425: The Holy Seeker Comes!

"The arrival is complete, please check the host!"

The system prompt made Xiao Rui turn on the system immediately instead of asking Lu Su who had left.

"This coming is affected by wish points!"

"The category of this coming: character coming!"

"Affiliation camp: Loyalty camp!"

"Choose as soon as the character arrives: Zhang Liang!"

"Character introduction: Zhang Liang, styled Zifang, the father of Yingchuan City, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty, a statesman, channeled thinking, ingenious strategizing, in the curtain of planning and planning, decisively wins thousands of miles away."

...

Xiao Rui's breathing became short of breath suddenly, and he looked excited.

Zhang Liang, has descended on Zhang Liang?

"Ha ha…"

Xiao Rui immediately stood up and threw the fishing rod into the lake, waiting for some fish, playing for those who wish to take the bait, now that Zhang Liang is there, fishing or not fishing is completely uninteresting.

The laughter attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at Xiao Rui suspiciously, if they didn't see him as the prince, they really wanted to ask him if he had a convulsion, laughing out loud for no reason, it was a disease.

After expressing his inner excitement, Xiao Rui immediately ran to Lu Su and asked, "Miss Susu, what's the name of the big brother you introduced?"

"It's called Zhang Zifang!" Lu Su replied.

Xiao Rui secretly thought, it really is him!

"Where does he live in seclusion now? The king sent someone to invite him!" Xiao Rui asked eagerly.

Lu Su was overjoyed and said, "Really? That's great! Thank you Your Highness!"

Lu Zhi at the side asked, "Susu, what's going on?"

Lu Su told her the ins and outs, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness is so kind to me, as soon as I beg His Highness, His Highness will immediately send someone to invite you!"

Lu Zhi's face froze slightly, then she smiled and said: "I have also heard about Zhang Zhifang's intelligence, if he can follow His Highness by his side, it would not be in vain to learn from him."

Xiao Rui nodded, and immediately called Li Yuanfang, telling him to prepare his bags and go to Xuanzhou to invite Zhang Liang. Seeing that His Royal Highness attached great importance to it, Li Yuanfang immediately took orders and set off.

The next activity lasted for more than an hour amidst laughter and laughter. Before leaving, Zhuge Liuying did not know what she said to Zhang Ruoxi, which made Zhang Ruoxi's cheeks flush. Before, she did not want to look at Xiao Rui, but now she dare not. Look sharply.

Xiao Rui returned to the palace under the escort of Dian Wei and Yang Youji. The chariots and horses bypassed the side street, and when they were about to enter the main street, a large number of men in black suddenly appeared on the eaves on both sides, holding strong bows and aimed at the palace. Chariots and horses, start shooting arrows!

Whizzing…

When the men in black came out, the iron dragon riders who were protecting the chariot and horses responded first. They took out their round shields to form a shield formation, and protected the chariot tightly. The arrows they shot hit the shields, Thunderbolt, Xiao Rui changed his posture with his eyes closed and rested, and continued to rest.

Seeing that the bow and arrow were fruitless, the man in black could only jump onto the street and start to attack and fight!

"Kill!" Dian Wei roared, and the soldiers of the Iron Dragon Cavalry immediately withdrew their shields and protected the carriage with Mo knives in their hands. Dian Wei and Yang Youji had already killed them, like tigers entering a flock of sheep. People are wiped out one by one.

Dian Wei's double halberds are made of meteoric iron. The double halberds weigh ninety kilograms and are extremely strong. When they hit the man in black, they made a dent, and then he was sent flying like a sack, hitting the man in black's sword. , the sword twisted directly.

Dian Wei was so fierce that the man in black dared not approach him.

Although Yang Youji is only a fourth-rank warrior with only bows and arrows in his hands, who stipulates that bows and arrows are only suitable for long-range attacks? Melee can still be played beautifully!

Of course, some men in black also rushed towards the carriage. After all, Xiao Rui was the target, but they were greeted by forty elite Iron Dragon Riders!

Xiao Rui became the crown prince, and his status has risen sharply. Now he must be protected by personal guards when he goes out. These forty iron dragon riders are all in the third-rank realm, which may not seem high, but they are wearing armor, carrying a round shield, and equipped with strange Dao is a well-known Mo Dao general who can teach the opponent how to behave even in the face of cavalry rushing, let alone a group of men in black?

Moreover, this group of Mo Dao generals are proficient in the technique of combined attack. Since ancient times, the combined attack technique has the effect that one plus one is greater than three. The men in black thought they were a mob, and only when they fought each other could they know the depth of each other.

In less than three minutes, more than twenty men in black were all executed, without even a chance to escape. Because it was close to the main street, when the patrol battalion heard the news and arrived, the war was over.

Seeing the assassination of His Royal Highness's chariots and horses, the soldiers of the patrol battalion panicked. Dian Wei asked them to clean up the scene and notified Zhongyong Hou to track down the assassin, and then escorted Xiao Rui back to the palace.

"The timing of being assassinated today is too coincidental. It's interesting... Who is going to kill me this time?" Back in the palace, Xiao Rui fell into deep thought.

There are too many people who want him to die, such as a few brothers, they will not give up the competition just because Xiao Rui became the prince, on the contrary, they will share the same hatred. Especially Xiao Feng, he was afraid of being retaliated by Xiao Rui, so he rushed out of Beijing immediately after Duke Ying committed suicide, but you must know that he was in collusion with Zhao Guo, so how can he have no backup in the capital?

Besides them, there are still many people who want to get rid of themselves, and the number one candidate is given to Emperor Zhao! Zhao Huang said that he hated himself, and was even more afraid of himself. Now that he is the prince, he is even more afraid! At the beginning, he did not hesitate to send the Nine Forbidden Army to assassinate him. Now that the two countries are at war, the hatred is even worse. It is not surprising that he would send assassins.

Although the imperial spies hiding in the capital were carefully investigated not long ago, and many small fish and shrimps were caught, but there are more than ten thousand foreigners entering and leaving the capital every day. no.

As for other enemies, of course there are! Xiao Rui has made too many enemies, and he can no longer tell who is trying to harm him.

He simply didn't think about it anymore, he had just rested in the East Palace, but the internal officials around His Majesty came to invite him, so he could only move to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Jinfu, the Marquis of Zhongyong, was also there. When he saw Xiao Rui entering the palace, he hurriedly saluted and said, "The humble commander of the patrol battalion is not well protected, and the assassins have the opportunity to assassinate His Highness. Please punish him!"

Xiao Rui hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said with a smile: "The capital is huge, with a population of millions, and the assassin deliberately hid it. How could Lord Hou know about it? If it is a crime, this king thinks that Eunuch Hai is the big crime! What is his Dongchang doing?" What to eat? There are so many expert assassins hiding in the capital, and he didn’t even hear a word about it. Do you think he’s not derelict in his duties?”

Zhang Jinfu opened his mouth, glanced at Hai Dafu next to the dragon case, and seeing his expression of lovelessness, Zhang Jinfu was immediately happy.

Your Highness's words to shirk responsibility for himself are too good, hey, I have learned another trick! It really is to live and learn! It's a pity, such a good son-in-law, why can't I be sure, it's a pity, a pity!

Hai Dafu knelt down obediently, and said: "Your Highness taught me that this servant is wrong! Your Majesty, this servant deserves death!"

Emperor Xia laughed and said: "You serve the palace, and the negligence in management is justifiable, and one month's salary will be deducted as a punishment."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Hai Dafu was grateful to Dai Ze, and just took a peek at Xiao Rui. Seeing Xiao Rui's expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, he felt a little sad in his heart. You have to pay for the coffin.

The monarchs and ministers sat down, and Emperor Xia said: "My son, you are now the heir of the Great Xia, so you will naturally be hated by villains or enemy countries. In the future, you should bring more guards when you go out of the palace. It is easy to hide a spear in the open and it is difficult to defend against an arrow in the dark. You must be careful."

"My son understands!" Xiao Rui nodded, thinking that His Majesty forbids him to leave the palace, he was taken aback.

Emperor Xia said again: "The Marquis of Changsheng sent someone to send an urgent military report. Zhao Guo has sent 500,000 troops to fight against Marquis Changsheng, and 300,000 troops to attack Xiangzhou. The 100,000 army fought against the Marquis of Changsheng, and the 200,000 army continued to attack Xiangzhou! Emperor Zhao was so calculating, he pressed a large number of troops to Chang'an, forcing Daxia to send more troops to Chang'an for support, and accordingly went to Hunan The strength of the state will be reduced!"

Over the years, the Great Xia Kingdom has recuperated, and without affecting the defense of the whole country, it can call 1.2 million troops at will! Remember, this is an official announcement!

However, Zhao Guo has been disregarding the people's livelihood for these years, and has been frantically expanding its military power, and the available troops have reached 1.6 million!

A difference of 400,000 could completely turn the tide of the battle!

Zhao Guo wants to press 800,000 troops to Chang'an, 500,000 in Xiangzhou, and may support them one after another, so he has a good plan to use the north as the main battlefield to attract and contain most of Xia's army, and then use Xiangzhou as the main battlefield. breakthrough.

It seems that Zhao Guo has not given up on his wishful thinking, thinking of single-handedly challenging the two countries, entering Xia and Yan! Then cooperate with Wei Guoli to destroy Yan Guo first, and then destroy Xia Guo!

This is a wonderful conspiracy!

If Da Xia reduces the number of troops sent on the main battlefield, he will lose to Zhao Guo. Once the main battlefield loses, it will definitely affect the overall situation!

And if the sending of troops in the direction of Xiangzhou is reduced, once Zhao Jun enters Yan State and the conspiracy with Wei State succeeds, it will really lead the wolf into the house!

The current state of Yan is a very good shield, and the state of Yan cannot perish!

Emperor Xia said again: "I'm free today, so I might as well listen to your two opinions!"

Zhongyong Hou Zhang Jinfu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I am rather stupid. If I have any good opinions, I should listen to His Highness the Crown Prince's opinions."

Emperor Xia was not angry, so he looked at Xiao Rui with a questioning and thoughtful look.

As a prince, his majesty has to inspect his studies. Now that he is a prince, he has to pay more attention to government affairs. Xiao Rui feels that being a prince is not easy!

"Father, my son thinks that the main battlefield cannot be lost! If Zhao Guo sends 800,000 troops to resist Chang Shenghou, we must also give Chang Shenghou 700,000 troops! But among the remaining troops, Champion Hou will guard the north. You can't mobilize your troops at will. Marquis Pingbo can't use them to guard against the coast. Marquis Zhenyuan has 60,000 troops, plus the prefectural guards, it should be able to form an army of 250,000 to fight against the 500,000 soldiers who marched southward from Zhao. Wan Dajun! Although the gap is twice as strong, Zhao Guo's intention is obvious, it wants to break through Yan Guo, and cooperate with Wei Guoli, not specifically targeting us!"

"So what I mean is that the main battlefield is attacked by Marquis Changsheng. It must be attacked. There must be an invincible momentum. The army pushes into Zhao's territory and also restrains the main force of Zhao's army. Xiangzhou adopts a defensive strategy, and then transforms Relying on the base camp, divide them into countless sub-units, cooperate with flexible and mobile guerrilla tactics, wear down Zhao Jun little by little, and eat them!"

Emperor Xia became interested and asked, "What is guerrilla tactics?"

Xiao Rui said proudly: "The sixteen-character formula of guerrilla tactics: When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we fight; The tactic is an exquisite art of war! If you can master it well, you will definitely make the enemy collapse and go crazy."

"Wonderful!" Zhang Jinfu's eyes lit up, and he said, "Your Majesty, although these sixteen words are concise and concise, if you savor them carefully, they really are the supreme art of war!"

Xiao Rui is quite proud!

This is the truth practiced by countless senior martyrs in previous lives. Back then, equipment that was countless times weaker than the opponent could forcefully win. Now it is used on Xia Jun. If you can't handle Zhao Jun, you are an idiot!

After savoring it carefully, Emperor Xia also wholeheartedly agreed.

"The emperor and I have the same thoughts. The main battlefield cannot be lost. The king of Chu was killed by the Zhao country. If my army does not attack, it will be self-defeating, and it is still humiliating the Great Xia country! Xiangzhou is handed over to Zhenyuanhou and Chen Qingzhi. , Han Xin, although the troops are a little less, I believe in their abilities!" Xia Huang said.

Xiao Rui nodded, not mentioning Marquis Zhenyuan for now, there are Chen Qingzhi and Han Xin, a Confucian general and a talented general, especially Han Xin, who is the commander in chief who leads troops to fight.

After Zhang Jinfu resigned, Emperor Xia suddenly mentioned gunpowder.

"Huang Er, order the workshop to speed up the production of gunpowder, the more the better." Xia Huang said.

Xiao Rui asked: "Father wants to use gunpowder to deal with Zhao Jun?"

Xia Huang shook his head and said with a smile: "Although gunpowder is powerful, it also has limitations and cannot be relied upon. But sometimes it can turn things around. I have never put Zhao Guo in my eyes, so naturally I don't bother to use gunpowder to deal with them."

Since the invention of gunpowder, Xiao Rui has been busy touring the state capital and vying for the position of crown prince. There are no skilled craftsmen around him, so he has always been looking forward to inventing artillery, but he has never put it on the agenda.

In addition, I didn't expect the national war to develop so quickly, and it would start after the Chinese New Year, and it would be on such a large scale.

In addition, even Xiao Rui didn't know anything about artillery, he only knew it was a cannon barrel. He hadn't studied it before, and he didn't have the ability to draw design drawings. As for relying on the system... forget it.

Therefore, as His Majesty said, although gunpowder is good, it is not time to abuse it. It must be reserved for critical moments and used wisely.

 …

The next day, after Xiao Rui finished his morning court and continued to study government affairs in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Li Yuanfang returned to the palace.

Xiao Rui went out to meet him, Li Yuanfang apologized: "Your Highness, after my subordinate rushed to Xuanzhou, I met that Zifang Zhang. After my subordinate explained his intentions, that Zifang Zhang didn't want to come to Beijing. It was useless for my subordinate to say anything. In the end They all wanted to tie him up and bring him back, but for fear of spoiling His Highness's important affairs, they had to go back overnight."

Xiao Rui asked: "Everyone is arrogant, can he explain why he doesn't want to come to Beijing?"

Li Yuanfang said: "He said he lives in seclusion and doesn't want to get involved in trivial matters in the world unless..."

"Unless what?" Xiao Rui frowned, it seemed that the next unless was Zhang Liang's request.

Loyalty is guaranteed only if demands are met.

"Unless His Highness invites you in person!" Li Yuanfang told the truth.

After finishing speaking, Li Yuanfang also felt that this person was too much, He Dehe dared to ask His Highness the Crown Prince to invite him in person!
