Chapter 24: Becoming Emperor

"Bastard! Darn! Useless stuff! Han Xiu clenched his fists and slammed the table hard, looking gloomy as if he was about to drip water. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

He planned for a long time, and finally found an opportunity to send the elite main force to sneak attack, but he didn't expect this to be the result.

Chu Yang!

Perfidious villain!

Now that an armistice agreement has been made, he ignored the alliance at all, annihilated all his elites, and did not even leave a single mouth alive!

"Chu Yang! Insidious child! The muscles on Han Xiu's face trembled with anger, and an uncontrollable anger flashed in his eyes.

If he could, he would like to kill Chu Yang, cramp and peel his skin, and crush his bones and scatter ashes!

Pity......

"Report, Zhang Xiangguo came to ask to see!" The soldiers standing guard outside the tent spread loudly.

"Accurate!" Han Xiu agreed in a deep voice.

Zhang Xiangguo, whose full name is Zhang Li, is the most relied on adviser of Han Xiu. Soon after Han Xiu's uprising, he defected, and then he has been following Han Xiu and giving him advice.

Pretending to be friendly with the King of Jin, avoiding the main force of the Jin army and Dali, and secretly developing his power, this was Zhang Li's original plan.

Then, he repeatedly attacked the Jin army, burned the grain and grass of the Jin army, and attacked by surprise soldiers, leaving when he was defeated, and not facing the Jin army head-on, which was also Zhang Li's offer.

It can be said that Zhang Linai is the head of Han Xiu's advisers and the military advisor of the entire Nanxiang.

"Your Majesty, this dispatch of troops has failed, and the troops have suffered serious losses. Nowadays, warlords in various places are divided, and many forces are unwilling to surrender, and it is really not easy to start a war again. Zhang Li's painstaking persuasion.

The Northern Jin Dynasty has already obtained grain and grass, and under the strength of the soldiers and horses, if Nanxiang wants to achieve victory, even if it is a sneak attack, it is not easy.

Moreover, the two armies signed an armistice agreement, and Chu Yang kept his promise that he would not attack Nanxiang in a short period of time, and there was no need to waste money with the Northern Jin Dynasty.

If Han Xiu refused to give up, the two armies would be stalemate, just like the Northern Jin Dynasty and Dali at the beginning, but it would give other forces a chance to develop.

Those local warlords, as well as the rebels from all over the country, all defected to Han Xiu on the surface, but who did not have the ambition to be the king and emperor behind the scenes?

The private soldiers in various places were not under Han Xiu's command, but followed their own lords. Once these generals have a rebellious heart, under internal and external troubles, Han Xiu will easily fall into a crisis.

"If peace is made at this time, how can this king be worthy of his brother who died in battle?" Han Xiu clasped his hands and pounded the table with resentment, his face full of grief.

"Your Majesty, don't be rash! Of course, the great revenge of the soldiers must be avenged, but now, what you should think about the most is - to be the emperor! ”

"Since the armistice agreement has been signed, then the Northern Jin Dynasty will definitely not have the courage to invade again! We won't be able to destroy the Northern Jin Dynasty for a while, it's better to be the emperor before the King of Jin, occupy the orthodox position, and have a reason to crusade against the rebellious party in the future! ”

Zhang Li's tone was calm, but every word was fine.

"Emperor?" Han Xiu's expression was shocked.

It's not that he didn't think about being the emperor, how many times he dreamed back at midnight, he dreamed that he was standing on the court and accepting the kneeling of hundreds of officials.

However, if he becomes emperor now, he has many concerns in his heart.

First of all, the most difficult to avoid is the post-seal. Who does he want to be the queen? Is it Jiao'e? He's not that generous yet.

Liu Suizhu is a good choice, but unfortunately, her background is too low, and the ministers will not agree.

If Shi Jiao'e had been trapped in the enemy camp, he would still have an excuse to postpone the seal. But now, he didn't even have an excuse to shirk.

Also, how should he be rewarded? Those local princes, the generals who can be used by their side, and the brothers who follow their birth and death...... To whom will he be crowned king, and where should the fief be divided?

He has promised many people that he wants to sit on the world with everyone, does he want to fulfill them one by one?

Thinking of this, Han Xiu's face sank suddenly.

Before fighting the world, in order to make everyone die, he was more generous than anyone else, and he couldn't wait to promise all the world that he had not yet reached to these brothers.

However, when it was really time to seal the land and give him a knight, he was so distressed that he was not even willing to divide a barren county!

Especially the Shi family, recruiting troops and horses for him, providing money and materials, and pacifying the rear, if you want to be rewarded, wouldn't you want to be named a king with a different surname?

It's definitely not okay not to reward him at all, but he feels unwilling to reward him.

Once he doesn't reward the Shi family, some people will scold him for treachery, unloading the mill and killing the donkey, which chills the hearts of all the soldiers. If this is the case, who will be stupid to die for him in the future?

"Your Majesty, you have to make up your mind! In case the King of Jin takes the lead, establishes the country and is called the emperor, and then gives you the next will to be crowned king, then you ......" Zhang Li said this, suddenly paused, and saw Han Xiu's face change slightly, so he stepped aside.

Zhang Li is a counselor, and his duty is to give advice and timely advice. As for whether to accept it or not, this is the matter of the lord.

At least in Han Xiu's eyes, it must be thought that this is how Han Xiu accepted his advice, not that he influenced Han Xiu's choice.

Enough is enough, not overdone.

This is the survival rule of the minister.

Zhang Li did stop in moderation, but Han Xiu couldn't help it and followed his words.

Chu Yang made an order to crown himself king?

As long as Han Xiu thought of this scene, he couldn't help but feel a burst of anger in his heart. His face grew darker and darker, black as the bottom of a pot.

He would never allow that to happen! He won't let Chu Yang claim the title of emperor in front of him, and he will also give himself the title of king!

He wants to be the emperor before Chu Yang!

He wants to occupy orthodoxy!

Compared with the orthodox throne, the fiefdom and knighthood are trivial things, and they are simply not worth mentioning.

"You...... That's a good point. Han Xiu slowly let go of his clenched hand, adjusted his mentality, and Tie Qing's complexion relaxed.

"The king has agreed to be the emperor, and he only needs to choose an auspicious day. However, after becoming the emperor, he always has to divide the meritorious heroes, what advice does Ziyuan have for the title of king and knight? Han Xiu raised his head and looked at Zhang Li with a sincere expression, as if he was really humbly asking for advice.

Zhang Li suddenly found it funny. He could see the temptation hidden in Han Xiu's eyes. However, since ancient times, the emperor was suspicious, which is not a big shortcoming.

"Fiefdom is an attractive form of reward. Rewarding those who had served in the war to encourage them to follow was an important measure to maintain their loyalty. ”

"Of course, fiefdom is also a necessary means to win over and appease local forces......" Zhang Li stood in place, dropping his bookbag, and talked eloquently.

If he answers this kind of question positively, he will be a ghost! If he dares to mention a name today, Han Xiu will find an opportunity to kill him tomorrow! And, of course, the unlucky guy he nominated.

Zhang Li is not stupid, and he doesn't want to kill himself.
