Chapter 543: The Lord of the World
Yes, this is incredible.
At least if you don’t personally go to the city gate and see the thrilling battle to defend the city gate, no one will be afraid of accepting the incident in the report.
In the report, the sky collapsed and the earth broke out to describe this war.
Such incredible results are for the monarchs and ministers of the Great Yan.
What else can be explained?
It cannot be said that the Yan army is like a scumbag. There are tens of thousands of people. Not only can they do anything to deal with hundreds of people, but they can also lose their troops and generals. Although it is a siege, the siege battle is extremely prone to casualties. The battle loss ratio will be more than the army guarding the city. But even so, it still makes people feel incredible.
Tens of thousands of soldiers were unable to capture a fortress, and they were beaten to pieces by Chen's army, killing and injured everyone. Such a thing is simply unbelievable.
Now, the emperor has found a reason... a sign of great danger.
Everything...is clear.
I regret not listening to Mr. Fang. At first... Mr. Fang said that the Empress Dowager of Dachen would definitely turn bad luck into good luck. After that, Mr. Fang predicted that there would be war in the south. Now... when Mr. Fang tried his best to stop this war, he still did not follow his advice. The emperor of Dayan Kingdom naturally had his own self-esteem. How could he allow hundreds of soldiers to go deep into the border of Dayan to be presumptuous?
But now...
Until now...
The emperor believed it. If it weren't for the sign of great danger, how could tens of thousands of soldiers be defeated by hundreds of soldiers? This was something he could not believe. At this moment, he was so impressed by Mr. Fang that he had to believe Fang Wucai's words.
He was a little annoyed and regretted that his original thoughts were lingering in his mind. He thought in his heart, if it were as if he had been told by Mr. Fang at the beginning, even if he had abandoned a small Jibei Prefecture? Although the land of Dayan was not widely praised, there were still four states and fifty-seven prefectures. At least, the elites suffered heavy damage and the court suffered a great loss. Because of the war, more than a dozen prefectures in the south were beginning to be in danger.
What’s even more terrifying is that even hundreds of soldiers are like this, is Da Chen armed with millions?
Could it be...Is this the destruction of heaven?
The Emperor of Dayan suddenly felt that the strength comparison between Yan and Chen was simply unbalanced. At this time, he had to examine and face it again.
However, at this time, the young emperor was confused.
In a blink of an eye, the world gave him a completely different understanding. His stubborn thoughts were now shattered by this war report.
When a person is confused, he needs to find a support, or someone will help him resolve his doubts.
But... he looked down and saw a group of civil and military officials at Dayan who were at a loss. They could not solve his doubts at all. For a moment, the corners of his mouth curled up gently and smiled bitterly. These people were afraid they were even more at a loss than themselves.
The emperor sighed deeply, feeling helpless, and the feeling of helplessness made him unable to breathe. The next moment he waved his hand and sleeves.
"Go up and go to Honglu Temple."
Today, no one stopped the emperor. Even Yan Jiuling could only be depressed and dared not interfere.
An hour later, in the heavy snow of goose feathers, the Emperor of Dayan had arrived at the Honglu Temple, and he was welcomed into the hall, where the charcoal fire was rising and warm as spring.
Fang Wucai glanced at the emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom and probably knew his purpose. In fact, Fang Wucai's source of information was faster than that of the Great Yan Kingdom. It was not because Fang Wucai and Chen Kaizhi had some powerful flying horses to convey the news, but because when the siege began, a special person was staring at the war. Before the war was completely separated, someone had already sent the news to Yanjing.
Fang Wu had just curled his eyes, and sighed, and said helplessly to Emperor Dayan: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry."
The young emperor seemed to be in a state of dismay, looking at Fang Wucai with his eyes, but there was no doubt in his eyes. He only admired him. He nodded at Fang Wucai, then sighed deeply, and lowered his eyes listlessly.
"I succeeded the throne and thought I wanted to be a wise emperor, and my civil and military achievements. Unexpectedly, I am laughed at by people now... It's really unexpected."
Mr. Fang said lightly: "Do your Majesty still remember what I said to you?"
The young emperor was stunned for a moment, looked up at Mr. Fang, and frowned in surprise.
Fang Wucai said word by word: "Your Majesty is the destined person of God. In time, you will definitely be able to sweep across Liuhe and complete your immortal achievements. But Your Majesty is too eager to achieve success, and..."
The next two words made the emperor's face slightly red, and... he was still very stubborn and did not listen to Mr. Fang's advice. Now... it was too late to regret.
He said solemnly: "I want to reorganize my flag and issue an order to allocate troops and horses, flatten Chen Kaizhi and his warrior camp, cut off their heads, and hang them in Yanjing City, how about?"
Fang Wucai seemed extremely calm today, and his heart was in a state of no trouble. In his opinion, the words of the little emperor could no longer scare him. He asked back: "If your Majesty thinks this can relieve hatred, then that's it. It's insignificant to be a mere warrior camp."
The emperor's eyebrows became deeper and deeper: "I'm not just trying to understand hatred...I'm thinking about..."
Fang Wucai shook his head again and sighed: "Your Majesty, it is certainly good to relieve hatred, but those who accomplish great things can bend and stretch. I have long expected that there will be bad omen in the south. Within three years of Dayan, you cannot use troops to the south. Instead, the Japanese are the starting point for Your Majesty to be a grand career. If Your Majesty insists on doing it alone, then just kill all the dog thieves in the Warriors camp, just..." As he said that, he looked indifferent: "Just hope that Your Majesty will not regret it in the future."
The word regret made the emperor's heart tremble. He had already regretted it, and he could not regret it again for the second time. Therefore, he looked at Fang Wucai with great excitement and said unwillingly: "But these soldiers have penetrated deep into the border of my Dayan. Do you just sit back and ignore it?"
"Give up the three prefectures of Jibei..." Fang Wucai said sternly: "Your Majesty, let go of the three prefectures of Jibei immediately!"
"What...what..." This proposal was unacceptable to the emperor.
How can you give up? This is what many soldiers fight with their blood and sweat. Once you give up, will you become a tyrant monarch without reason?
Fang Wucai opened his eyes and said seriously: "Your Majesty, it's time for a hero to cut off his arm. The three palaces of Jibei are nothing but useless for Your Majesty. On the contrary, it has become your Majesty's burden. If Your Majesty is reluctant, I can already predict that Your Majesty will definitely be devastating. Your Majesty, the way of heaven is impermanent. Although Your Majesty is destined to heaven, once Your Majesty goes against the will of heaven, then..."
"This..." The emperor seemed to have been hit hard in his heart, and suddenly became depressed, his face was pale and bloodless, and he shook his head powerlessly, like a helpless child: "If I give up, how can I explain to the people of the world?"
Fang Wucai stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Majesty does not need to explain."
"What?" The emperor looked at Fang Wucai in amazement, as if he felt that he had heard it wrong, so why didn't he explain it?
Fang Wucai continued to laugh and said, "Because once you give up the three prefectures of Jibei, you will give His Majesty a great gift."
The emperor was stunned: "What does it mean?"
Fang Wucai said slowly: "I have observed the celestial phenomena at night these days. The Donghu people are very likely to take advantage of Your Majesty's majesty and send envoys to follow you."
The emperor was shocked and his eyes were shiny.
He actually felt that the three prefectures of Jibei were indeed a burden as Mr. Fang said, but it was not easy to give up. Once he gave up, how would the subjects view themselves?
Dayan is located in a bitter and cold place, and the people are strong. They are never willing to accept the rule of a weak king. Cutting the land means that the majesty of the court is ruined.
But... Donghu...
The Hu people are divided into Donghu and Xihu. Among them, the Yan Kingdom borders the Donghu. The Dayan and Donghu have been fighting for many years and have never been convinced by anyone. Donghu is a fantasy. Isn’t this a fantasy?
But...if Donghu really attached himself, this... would be a great gift. Even if the three prefectures of Jibei are gone, what would it be? Once Donghu is willing to surrender, who among the Yan Kingdom will not praise the emperor's martial virtues?
"But, how can this Donghu be willing to be with him?"
"This is the number of days. Why, Your Majesty doesn't believe it?" Fang Wucai said seriously.
The emperor was overjoyed. Yes, what reason is there? I don’t believe Mr. Fang. How many incredible things have been with you as Mr. Fang said. Although he also felt that it was impossible for Donghu to be attached, since Mr. Fang had spoken, what else is impossible.
He suddenly became excited, stood up, and walked back and forth with a burnt red face: "If this is the case, it would be great. It would be great. If I don't spend a single soldier, I can directly drive the troops eastward without any effort to deal with the Donghu, and kill the Japanese pirates without leaving any armor. Yes, Mr. Fang said it right. The three prefectures of Jibei are just small places. What's the use of keeping them? I need time and time to suppress the rear. Only in this way can I prepare for war and go south after three years. At that time, it's not just the three prefectures of Jibei. The world is within reach. If the Donghu is attached, I will give them a lot of rewards and let these 100,000 Donghu cavalry be my vanguard. Haha... I can rest assured."
Fang Wucai had a expressionless face and looked a transcendent attitude of not being happy with things or being sad with himself.
But the emperor was still in great joy, and Donghu was incest. This was a great good thing, enough to make him respected by the people of the world. At this time, he seemed to have seen a golden road. With a hundred thousand Donghu cavalry, it was enough to flatten the world. He raised his eyebrows and danced excitedly: "Mr. Fang, what I look at is the world, and I don't care about the gains and losses of several prefectures and counties. What I have to do is the First Emperor, the Emperor of the Great Han Dynasty. What can I do if I can bend and stretch and give alms to several prefectures and counties? "
