The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Xiao Rui slammed his sword, installed a big bull, and tens of thousands of catties of explosives directly blasted the blocked ice dam, and then the rising river hit the crushed ice and rushed downstream, with the momentum of blowing thousands of miles.

The terrifying sound of explosions and air waves terrified the Iron Dragon Riders who were watching from a distance. It is estimated that they will never forget this scene in their lifetime.

At this moment in Caozhou Prefecture, Zhang Ning was ordering his officers and men to gather soldiers from various guards and at the same time recruit the people in the city. The sudden loud noise also surprised the people in the city.

They felt the slight tremor of the ground and the sound of the explosion, and the noisy street was silent.

Zhang Ning looked in the direction where the voice came from. It was the section of the Jinsha River. His Royal Highness was still there. What happened there?

Worried in his heart, he immediately led people out of the city and rushed to the bank of the Yellow River. Seeing that Xiao Rui was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief, but then he suddenly raised his breath again.

what did he see

The accumulated ice dams are gone!

Ice is flowing downstream!

Raised water levels have returned to normal!

this…

He had only left for more than an hour, and the situation in front of him completely changed! He looked at Xiao Rui in shock, at this time Xiao Rui was chatting with Zhang Liangyun calmly, but looking at the eyes of the five thousand iron dragon riders, they looked at His Highness full of admiration and fanaticism.

Could it be related to the loud noise that shook the earth just now?

Zhang Ning thought about it, but couldn't figure out the truth.

"Commander Zhang!" At this moment, Xiao Rui shouted.

Zhang Ning suddenly came back to his senses, hurried forward and said respectfully, "Your Highness!"

Xiao Rui pointed to the ice dam that had exploded, and said: "Now that the ice dam has been dug up, the ice edge can go downstream, but the Jinsha River section is too curved, and ice dams will appear after ice accumulation. Don't worry. Don't slack off, organize people to clean up this river immediately, so as to solve your worries. When the troubles here are solved, when will this king return to Beijing, your credit will be reported to His Majesty truthfully, and you will be rewarded according to your merits! "

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I understand! I guarantee the head of the project, and I must complete the task!" Zhang Ning immediately issued a military order.

Xiao Rui nodded. Local officials should have such awareness. Only in this way can they manage the jurisdiction well and benefit the people. Someone like Su Ming ransacked his home!

Afterwards, Xiao Rui led five thousand iron dragon riders back to the city of Caozhou, and directly lived in the barracks of the commander of the capital.

Nothing to say all night.

The next day, the entire Caozhou prefecture was in full swing, and a large number of unemployed people were recruited to go to the Jinsha River section to clean up the river. Zhang Ning sent several procrastinating officials of the prefecture to prison with the gold medal, and his appeal immediately increased. up.

The people are simple and honest, and they all know the disaster of Lingxun, so not only the people in the state capital, but also the people in the villages of nearby prefectures and counties actively participated in it. They brought dry food, hoes, and ox carts to join in. Because the number of people is too large, it will not be clear for a while, but a rough calculation must be close to 30,000 people.

Zhang Ning was so busy that he immediately arranged for a thousand soldiers to stop working and instead maintain order, and led the people how to excavate.

For a while, the banks of the Jinsha River were in full swing, and the people were working hard for their homes.

Xiao Rui checked the ice flood situation. Sure enough, the ice dam that exploded yesterday showed signs of accumulation again. The glaciers melted quickly when the upstream temperature was high, while the downstream temperature was low and the melting was slow. Coupled with the flow of the river, the ice accumulation would naturally form an ice dam.

Now quickly excavate this curved river channel, level it, and let the ice move downstream. As long as it does not block the water level in a large amount, it will not be a big problem.

After seeing the situation in the Yellow River, Xiao Rui and Zhang Liang returned to the city of Caozhou and directly ordered the investigation of Su Ming, the governor of Caozhou, to collect evidence of his crime.

It was too easy for a brainless corrupt official like Su Ming to investigate him. After Xiao Rui got the evidence, he sent Tie Longqi to jail him and ransacked his home.

The people cheered when they heard about it, and Zhang Ning, the commander, also deeply felt the vigorous and resolute actions of His Highness today.

After another three days, tens of thousands of people excavated the river channel and built embankments, and finally the curvature of the Jinsha River section was resolved, and the icicles stopped accumulating and continued to move downstream.

Afterwards, Xiao Rui led people to walk downstream along the Yellow River, and when he found that the river was curved and easy to form an ice dam, he notified the local governor or prefect to send someone to clean it up. In this way, Xiao Rui came to Jeju along the river.

Jeju, also known as Spring City, is naturally because there are many springs in the territory, it has "seventy-two bright springs", and it also has the reputation of "lotus flowers on four sides and willows on three sides, one city with mountains and half city with lakes".

Compared with the governor of Caozhou, the governor of Jeju is pragmatic. She has long recruited people to organize the Yellow River in Jeju, because Jeju is in the lower reaches of Caozhou.

After Xiao Rui entered the city, after listening to the report of the governor of Jeju, he nodded in satisfaction and praised him heavily, so he didn't check him.

This also made the governor of Jeju feel relieved, for fear that the little maniac who ransacked the house would start copying if there was a disagreement!

After working for several days, the flood situation was finally brought under control, and Xiao Rui was relieved. Afterwards, he asked Zhang Liang to write a booklet to record the details of his visit to Shandong, and sent someone to rush him back to Kyoto.

It should be mentioned that after Xiao Rui came to Jeju, the auxiliary soldiers of the Iron Dragon Cavalry also arrived.

The so-called auxiliary soldiers are dedicated to assisting the heavy armored cavalry. There are a total of 1,000 people. Each of them rides a war horse and carries two war horses.

Although the heavy armored cavalry is invincible, but when walking with armor, the speed is not fast, and the mobility is limited, so auxiliary soldiers are needed to assist.

When on the road, the heavy armored cavalry took off their heavy armor and was carried by auxiliary soldiers, which can increase the speed of the road. Secondly, the auxiliary soldiers are also responsible for auxiliary measures such as grain, food, horse care, and scouting.

Heavy cavalry is invincible, but not omnipotent! Must rely on the army. When there is no army supply as backing, the value of auxiliary soldiers is reflected.

When Emperor Xia formed the Iron Dragon Knights, he wanted to overcome the weakness of the heavy armored cavalry and improve their mobility and marching speed.

The arrival of the auxiliary soldiers made Xiao Rui's heart active.

Jeju is only 800-900 miles away from Yandu. These days, Guangguang is busy managing Lingxun, and has not paid attention to the situation in the north. Now the champion has 300,000 troops guarding the northern border, and the follow-up troops are being sent to him in a steady stream. , at this time, he should be fighting with the armies of Qi and Yuan!

So Xiao Rui, who was active in his heart, wanted to go north, with a horse made of meteorite and an armored iron dragon rider, to kill the Quartet, like a sharp knife directly tearing the flesh of the Qi army and the Yuan army.

Zhang Liang at the side noticed Xiao Rui's thoughts, and immediately asked with a smile, "Your Highness, do you want to go north?"

"The one who knows my heart is the ovary! Why don't you take the Wu hook and conquer countless states in the enemy's country! I also have this blood, but because I am a prince, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall and stays in the palace far away from the battlefield. Naturally, I dare not Mess. But now it’s different, the horse lance has been polished, and the bright armor has been polished, so we can’t just hide them.” Xiao Rui said sincerely.

After a pause, Xiao Rui asked, "Will Zifang support me?"

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "As a subject of His Highness, in terms of status, naturally he cannot support His Highness to go to the battlefield. His Highness also understands the reason why a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. Once there is a mistake in going to the battlefield, it will be too late to regret. However, from a strategic point of view, Daxia is now facing enemies on both sides. The three kingdoms of Zhao, Qi, and Yuan attacked Daxia, and Daxia also rested and recuperated for more than ten years without fighting. attack."

Xiao Rui nodded in approval.

When the Yuan army invaded Great Xia by way, although the plot was blocked by the champion, but the news spread back to the capital, several governors and cabinet scholars in the Hall of Mental Cultivation looked very dignified.

Even senior officials are worried, let alone ordinary people!

Don't be afraid to fight alone, one against three will make people think too much. Although His Majesty believes in Daxia's strength, he can't stop the ministers and the people from thinking too much.

Even, with the entanglement of the war, it will be difficult to decide whether to win. Once the enemy spreads rumors in Daxia, it will make the people even more irritable.

Once the morale of the army and the people is unstable, it will be difficult to restore it.

Zhang Liang said again: "So, in order to solve the worries in the hearts of the people of Daxia and gather strong determination, the army of Daxia needs to win a big victory on the battlefield! Only a big victory can sweep away all suspicions. But the current situation is still in the The two sides are stalemate, whether it is the champion, Chang Shenghou, or Zhenyuanhou of Xiangzhou, it is difficult to obtain an overwhelming victory."

"So, is there any other way?"

"Of course! This is what my subordinate said just now. From the perspective of strategy and situation, if His Highness can lead troops into the territory of Qi State and kill all directions, as if entering the land of no one, the news of success will be sent back to Daxia. What will the subjects of Great Xia think?"

Xiao Rui was shocked, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, what will the subjects think?

Their incomparably handsome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led five or six thousand people casually into the Great Qi Kingdom, attacked several cities in succession, and defeated the enemy army. What awe-inspiring power this is!

From the side, it also reflects that Qi State and Yuan Army are paper tigers, and they are not opponents of Daxia at all! This move will immediately condense the self-confidence of the subjects of Great Xia, and also stabilize the morale of the army.

Suddenly, Xiao Rui realized something.

He was shocked and said: "We came to Caozhou to govern Lingxun. Your Majesty sent auxiliary soldiers and brought horses and armor. Did you expect that I would go north?"

Zhang Liang laughed and nodded.

As expected of Zhang Liang, he has already seen His Majesty's thoughts, and he didn't tell or induce Xiao Ruiming, because he knew that Xiao Rui would definitely do this! This is a high IQ, good at speculating and speculating, and predicting things like a god.

Xiao Rui couldn't help giving a thumbs up, and praised: "Ovary really knows everything, and knows things like a god."

However, Zhang Liang shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is the man of God today! After he learned about Ling Xun, he guessed that His Highness would take the initiative to invite Ying, so he had the next series of operations. This strategizing method, my subordinate Be willing to bow down."

To have such a royal father, I really dare not have the slightest thought of treason.

Zhang Liang said again: "Your Highness, today His Majesty understands the truth that a gentleman should not take risks, but His Majesty understands even more that a crown prince must have the momentum to sweep the world. If His Highness lives in the palace for a long time, the world will only know that His Highness is the Crown Prince, and in the future it will be the Xia Dynasty. Emperor. But if you go out and kill a bloody path, the world will understand that Xia Guo will produce an emperor with the spirit of sweeping the world! This is His Majesty's respect and trust for His Highness, so even if there are many dangers ahead, His Majesty will let you go !"

Xiao Rui nodded, understanding His Majesty's good intentions.

My goal is to unify China. If I can't show a ferocious aura, how can I fight for hegemony in the world?

"Zifang, let's straighten out our troops and set out now! My big sword is already hungry and thirsty!" Xiao Rui was eager to try.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang smiled mysteriously, and said, "Your Highness, since you have decided to fight against Qi, let's play a big game, so that Qi can feel the fear of fear, so we don't go north!"

Xiao Rui was stunned, seeing his plan in his chest, he immediately understood that he, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia had already started planning when he left the capital!

Well, only I was kept in the dark!

How embarrassing!
