The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

The night is slowly coming.

In Eastern Tibet County, the soldiers guarding the city chatted together in groups of three or five, and the conscripted men gathered together to discuss heatedly. The content of the discussion was naturally what happened during the day.

Just as Zhang Liang predicted, someone couldn't bear it anymore.

Guarding an impossible city, tying his life here, what is even more hateful is that even his family members cannot enter outside the city.

Hate the soldiers and horses of Xia Kingdom? Of course I would hate, but I hate my own country even more!

"Brothers, both left and right were dead, but now Xia Guo gave us a way to survive, why not cherish it? The Great Xia Prince is the grandson of our eldest princess, and has the blood of Zhao Guo's royal family. What he promised will definitely be fulfilled." A man Gritting his teeth, he suddenly shouted in a low voice.

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence all around.

"Do you want to do it?" the man asked ruthlessly.

After a while, someone also gritted his teeth and shouted: "It's done!"

"It just so happens that I know a captain guarding the city, who is from my hometown!"

"I know some people too!"

"Then I'll contact the others!"

...

A single spark can start a prairie fire.

Inside the Sheriff's Mansion, Xun Qing looked at the darkness outside, and felt a bone-chilling chill. The steward he sent out to investigate hurried back and said, "My lord, the atmosphere outside doesn't feel right. Many people are ready to move. I'm afraid there may be soldiers tonight." thing."

Xun Qing changed his mourning, since he was powerless to save, then let's break up and stand up. What are the chances of Zhao Guo being able to survive this crisis? Xun Qing knew it clearly.

"Call together your loyal confidants." Xun Qing made up his mind and shouted immediately.

The steward hurriedly said, "Yes, my lord!"

This night, it is doomed that the eastern Tibetan county will not be peaceful.

...

When the sky was bright, Xiao Rui got up to practice martial arts. As the saying goes, one is good at work but not at play. Xiao Rui is only a third-rank martial artist, so naturally he will not slack off.

He fought against Li Yuanfang, although it was far from Li Yuanfang's actions, but fighting against a master can greatly stimulate Xiao Rui's potential, Xiao Rui is improving every day.

When the fight was in full swing, Yang Youji rushed to report, "Your Highness, something happened."

Seeing that he was out of breath, Xiao Rui and Li Yuanfang took their moves and stood firm, Xiao Rui was surprised: "Could it be that Zhao Jun took the initiative to attack?"

Yang Youji shook his head and said, "No, the governor of Eastern Tibet County killed Linghufeng, the general guarding the city, and came to surrender!"

Xiao Rui glared at him immediately, and said: "This is a good thing, this is not an accident! I thought Zhao Jun was brave once. Let's go and see this prefect who knows the current affairs!"

When I came to the big tent of the Chinese army, I saw Changsheng Hou Tian Boyuan sitting at the top, and a middle-aged man standing below him, wearing the official robe of Zhao Guo.

Seeing Xiao Rui entering the tent, Chang Shenghou got up to salute, Xun Qing also turned to look at Xiao Rui, the first time he saw the Prince of Great Xia, Xun Qing's eyes lit up, there is such a handsome man in the world!

Afterwards, Xun Qing bowed his hands and said: "Xun Qing, the guilty minister of the Zhao State, and the governor of Tibet East County, pay homage to His Royal Highness Prince Daxia!"

Xiao Rui took the throne, seeing his extraordinary bearing, he smiled and said: "Mr. Xun, I would like to send you a sentence: He who knows the current affairs is a hero, and you are a smart person. This sentence is perfect to describe you. Since you have surrendered , I will not treat you badly. You should still be your sheriff, and comfort the people in the county for me."

After speaking, Xiao Rui looked at the box on the ground and said, "Is Linghu Feng's head in there?"

"Yes!" Xun Qing nodded.

At this time, Zhang Liang and Guo Jia came over upon hearing the news. They stood aside respectfully and did not speak, but Xun Qing recognized the identities of the two advisers and nodded slightly as a greeting.

Xiao Rui continued to ask: "You killed Linghu Fengtoucheng, and the soldiers in the city didn't resist?"

Xun Qing said: "I will kill all the generals who resisted. I have shown great righteousness to other officers and men, and have not aroused the anger of the army and the people. However, I still beg Your Highness to agree that after the Xia army enters the east of Tibet, it will not harm the people. Allow the soldiers to disarm and return home , Do not imprison them! If they are willing to become the people of Great Xia, the conditions promised by His Highness must remain the same. If this is the case, I am willing to give up the county city!"

"Okay, I promise you! You don't ask for something for yourself? If you take the initiative to surrender now, you will be listed as a sinner by Zhao Guo and bear a bad name. I can't let you be wronged." Xiao Rui said.

Xun Qing shook his head and said, "I don't ask for anything."

Xiao Rui nodded and said: "Okay then, Lord Hou, I will trouble you for the next thing."

Tian Boyuan nodded with a smile, then went out with Xun Qing, and began to take over the eastern Tibetan county.

At this time, only Xiao Rui and the others were left in the tent.

Guo Jia praised: "This Xun Qing is not simple, but can be of great use!"

"Yes! It's a pity that such a loyal man was delayed by Zhao Guo!" Zhang Liang also praised.

Xiao Rui looked at the two of them, he only thought that Xun Qing was smart, but he didn't see that he was a loyal man.

"Why did the two gentlemen say that? He is now a traitor, so why talk about loyalty?" Li Yuanfang also asked curiously.

Zhang Liang explained: "To say that he is a loyal person is not to the State of Zhao, but to the people, and to the soldiers of the eastern Tibetan county. Under our scheming, the people in the eastern Tibetan county must be eager to try and prepare to kill. Hu Feng, no matter how you say it, this kind of behavior is collaborating with the enemy and treason. Soldiers and civilians will not escape the death penalty."

Guo Jia continued: "As for Xun Qing, the county guard alone resisted the crime of surrendering. In this way, even if Zhao's court blames him in the future, it will be his own business and will not involve the people."

Only then did Xiao Rui, Li Yuanfang and the others suddenly understand.

Zhang Liang sighed with emotion, and said, "Actually, there is no shortage of loyal and righteous men in the State of Zhao. It's just that the game of chess in the State of Zhao has been played badly by the Emperor Zhao. As far as Xun Qing is concerned, he will lead the soldiers in the city to defend to the death. Even if Zhao Guo is destroyed, he will not be able to wash away the reputation of treachery. Sometimes it takes more courage to live than to die !"

Xiao Rui fell silent.

He was thinking, what would he do if it was him?

Knowing that the city cannot be defended, but also defending the city to the death, to serve the country?

Or give up resisting and bear the infamy for the sake of the people of the city?

Xiao Rui didn't know what he would do, because he was not in that environment, and it would be irresponsible to speculate from outside the matter now.

"Now that the Eastern Tibetan Commandery has been destroyed, the remaining two resisting prefectures are at your fingertips. In a few days, Eastern Tibetan Commandery will also be completely in Daxia's hands!" Xiao Rui said happily.

Zhang Liang and Guo Jia nodded.

Guo Jiadao: "You can know the whole leopard at a glance. This is the case in East Tibet County. Further west, Tibet West County, Lingshan County, and Qishui County are also in a state of powerlessness to resist. Moreover, East Tibet County voluntarily surrendered, which further formed a chain of influence. The hearts of the people are scattered. Zhao Guo wants to save himself, but he may not be able to recover!"

Xiao Rui nodded to express his approval, but at the same time, he became a little impatient.

The purpose of his coming here is to destroy the State of Zhao, more precisely, to kill the Emperor Zhao and avenge his mother, but now the army is moving westward too slowly, and it is estimated that if Qi Jiang is attacked, the State of Qin will take the State of Zhao If it is destroyed, Xiao Rui will not be able to avenge Xiao Rui's great revenge.

So Xiao Rui should speed up his speed.

Could it be that the time he went to Qi State, he led Iron Dragon Riders across the Qi River, entered Qiao County, and then went straight to Huanglong and entered Zhao Huang's capital?

I'm afraid I won't be able to learn this time.

First, Emperor Zhao already knew Xiao Rui's whereabouts, so he was naturally worried that Xiao Rui would personally lead the Iron Dragon Riders to kill him, so he must have set a trap.

Second, once the Iron Dragon Knight crossed the Qi River first, they would be really helpless. Once caught in the siege of the army, the natural danger of Qi Jiang will completely trap the Iron Dragon Knights and prevent them from going east. This is very dangerous.

Thirdly, even five thousand iron dragonriders would not be able to break through Zhao's imperial capital, let alone enter the imperial city and kill Zhao Huang.

So all of the above made Xiao Rui give up the idea of ​​leading the iron dragon to ride the waves.

At this time, Zhang Liang saw Xiao Rui's meditation.

How clever he is, he immediately guessed what Xiao Rui was thinking about, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness, if you want to kill Zhao Huang, you can only go to Zhao Guohuang Capital."

Xiao Rui came back to his senses, looked at Zhang Liang's smile, and suddenly remembered that he brought A'Zhu here on purpose, and immediately understood his intention.

"Has Zifang already guessed this step?" Xiao Rui asked.

Zhang Liang nodded and said: "Our army can at most take the territory east of the Qijiang River. It is impossible to cross the river, because there is a lack of a large number of boats to cross the river. This is a natural barrier, and we can only plan in the future. Since we can't destroy it with our own hands. To avenge Concubine Rong's concubine, according to His Highness's temperament, he will naturally kill Emperor Zhao. Therefore, going to Emperor Zhao is a certainty."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "I still need to inform Chang Shenghou about this matter, and then choose a confidant to put on the special mask of Miss Azhu, pretend to be His Highness and continue to stay in the camp. If there is nothing to do, come out and take a few steps, so that Zhao Guo's The scouts and spies knew that His Highness was in the barracks, so they relaxed their vigilance. But we disguised ourselves and went west to the capital of Zhao Kingdom, and no one noticed. This time, we brought a lot of explosives, and we have a chance to let Zhao Huang taste what it is smell."

"Haha... Those who know my heart, the two gentlemen also." Xiao Rui laughed loudly.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang said again: "Actually, the one who knows Your Highness best is not your subordinates, but His Majesty today!"

"My father?" Xiao Rui asked in surprise.

Zhang Liang nodded, then took out a list from his bosom, and said: "Your Highness, before departure, His Majesty secretly summoned Mr. Wen He and handed it to him, and warned us to keep it from His Highness. Take them out again!"

"What?" Xiao Rui asked curiously. When he opened the list, his eyes showed surprise.

This turned out to be the list of spies of Xichang in Zhao Kingdom's imperial capital!

And many of the people on the list turned out to be dignitaries of the Zhao Kingdom!

His Majesty handed over such a confidential list to Xiao Rui, but after helping him go to the imperial capital of Zhao State, it will be easier to carry out operations!

Prince Xia went to Zhao Guohuang to assassinate Zhao Huang. This is really daring, it is interesting to think about it!
