Chapter 65: Dragon Tyrant

Outside the Tianshui County of Gansu Province, more than 300,000 troops are stationed here, a large flag embroidered with the dragon flutters in the wind, this is the famous dragon army of the Eastern Dragon Empire, it is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven since ancient times, only listen to the emperor's orders, and only the emperor can mobilize the dragon army, so the dragon army is equivalent to the emperor of the East Dragon Empire here.

The Emperor of the Eastern Dragon Empire, Long Batian, is a middle-aged man in his forties, different from the general pampered emperor, this Long Batian was born very tall, two meters tall, although he was wearing a dragon robe, but he couldn't hide his explosive power.

Long Batian's road to the rise of the throne is a bloody road, he has a total of more than 170 brothers, when the throne was fighting, he personally killed more than 70 of them, and now the rest are those princes who have no heart to compete for the throne, if anyone dares to peep at the throne, Long Batian will definitely kill to the end.

Since the little dragon overlord has been extremely tyrannical, after becoming the emperor, he increased the conscription, expanded the army, and waged war against neighboring countries, it is precisely because of this that many people who could not bear the heavy conscription rose up, and the situation became more and more intense, and finally the princes, generals, and princes outside supported the army to stand up against the dragon overlord one by one, and for a time the Eastern Dragon Empire was in civil strife.

And at the right time, the countries that had been invaded by Long Batian began to retaliate, and all other countries saw the opportunity to take advantage of it, and they also came to burn and plunder, the Eastern Dragon Empire had a total of twenty-three provinces, and now Long Batian only had five, namely Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Hubei and Sichuan, and the other provinces were no longer under the control of Long Batian.

The rebellion in the country, Long Batian was also furious, and constantly personally sent troops to suppress it, this time he sent troops to Gansu, because of the rebellion in the west of Lanzhou County and Baiyin County in Gansu Province, that is, the boundary of Xiliang, he personally divided the Xiliang Hou Dong Zhuo to rebel, holding 300,000 Xiliang iron horses, even Long Batian was also afraid.

"Your Majesty!" At this moment, Long Batian was drinking in the royal courtyard of Tianshui County, a middle-aged man with a relatively short stature, in his forties, a pale face, and a sharp voice from far and near, and then knelt down on one knee in front of Long Batian and said, "Minister Zhao Gao knocks to see Your Majesty!" ”

Long Batian glanced up at Zhao Gao, and said lightly: "Zhao Aiqing, why do you have time to come to me today?" Although he drank a lot of wine, Long Batian's face was not the slightest drunk.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!" Zhao Gao said.

"Oh? Zhao Aiqing, what news is there from your factory guard? Is there another rebellion in that place? Hehe, a group of rabble, waiting for me to sweep away Xiliang, I am going to clean them up one by one, a group of clowns who jump off the beam, just killing. Long Batian said coldly.

Zhao Gao is the supreme leader of the factory guard controlled by the royal family of the Eastern Dragon Empire, and he directly obeys the emperor's orders, don't look at Zhao Gao's feminine appearance, who would know that he is actually a strong man in the innate realm?

I only heard Zhao Gao say with some solemnity: "Your Majesty, half a year ago, a force suddenly rose in Weihai County, Shandong Province, facing the Dongying people, winning more with less, three battles and three victories, and now the scale is for the Han army, with more than 30,000 horse infantry troops. ”

"Three battles and three victories against the Dongying people? Okay, good! Hmph, just an island country, taking advantage of the civil strife in my Donglong Empire, I dare to send troops to invade, I will one day cross the sea to slaughter the Dongying Island country! Long Batian laughed and said, "I thought that most of the people of the country were useless, but I didn't expect such a character to appear in a remote coastal area, I should be rewarded!" ”

Looking at Long Batian's happy appearance, Zhao Gao hesitated for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, you have instructed before, for those who rebel, there is no need to assassinate those who rebel, unless there is someone who can rule the world, this Han army leader Liu Chen is young, not only established an army to resist the Dongying people, but also implemented benevolent government in his ruling area, won the support of many people, and the ministers were afraid that it would become bigger, so they united with the Shadow Dragon King to dispatch the top thirty Shadow Dragon Guards to attack and kill him!" ”

"The result?" Long Batian's expression froze, and he looked at Zhao Gao and asked.

"Failed, the two innate masters were killed by Liu Chen alone!" Zhao Gao was a little frightened, knelt down, and nodded his head to the ground.

When Long Batian heard this, his eyes flashed, and he muttered: "Ranking in the top thirty, that is the master of the early congenital realm, the two masters of the early congenital realm are dead, this Liu Chen is really not simple!" ”

Long Batian was muttering to himself, and Zhao Gao didn't dare to disturb, just prostrate his body like that, waiting for Long Batian's order.

At least half an hour passed, and Long Batian drank a pot of wine in a row, and then said, "Zhao Gao! ”

"The minister is here!" Zhao Gao responded.

"From today onwards, it is not allowed to sell and attack Liu Chen and all the generals of the Han army, and in addition, pass on the decree to make Liu Chen the Marquis of Zhenbei and the fief Beiping County!" Long Batian said word by word.

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Gao raised his head suddenly, and looked at Long Batian with a puzzled expression, he didn't understand why Long Batian had such thoughts, instead of destroying them while the Han army was still weak, he also made them marquis, Zhao Gao found that he had followed Long Batian for nearly thirty years, but he never understood what Long Batian was thinking.

Looking at Zhao Gao's somewhat dazed look, Long Batian sighed and said: "Zhao Gao, when I was still a prince, you followed me, more than thirty years have passed in a blink of an eye, many people think I am tyrannical and unreasonable, but who knows, many things are involuntary." ”

As he spoke, Long Batian's thoughts seemed to return to the past, and he said slowly: "Born in the royal family, there will never be family affection at all, if I wasn't ruthless, the current I would have been a pile of white bones, although I destroyed them and killed my own brothers, but they still have huge power, which can shake the foundation of the country, in order to weaken them, I can only launch wars against other countries to mobilize troops from them." ”

"The country's civil strife, all this is in my imagination, the Eastern Dragon Empire has gone through more than 800 years, many things have long been decayed, in this case, it is better to mess up to the end, so that many people will die, if once the chaos is rectified, this world will be peaceful again, and even the Eastern Dragon Empire can be stabilized again, but there is a little bit of surprise I really didn't expect that those countries that bowed down to us in the past would dare to show their fangs to us, it is simply an unforgivable sin!"

Zhao Gao listened below, not daring to say a word.

Long Batian continued: "When the princes rise up today, the heroes are competing, but in my opinion, the vast majority of them are rabble, and they can't get on the stage, only a small number of people such as Xiang Yu of Jiangdong and Wu Sangui, the king of Yunnan in Yunnan, can enter my eyes, but I believe that when my troops are in the front, even they are vulnerable. ”

"The country needs to quell the rebellion, for the foreign invasion of the enemy, I really feel a little powerless, the ridiculous thing is that those princes, who keep saying that they oppose my brutal rule, secretly collude with the empire, and kill the people of the Donglong Empire, they are the unforgivable crime, this Liu Chen dares to make a move against Dongying, it is enough to see his heroism and courage, there is such a person, I am very happy in my heart."

"Maybe you will think that I am conniving at the strength of the Han army, but if the Han army in Liu Chen's hands can really fight against foreign invaders, even if it is strong, I will not regret it, when I calm the world, then the last battle, I would rather fight with the Han army, Zhao Gao, do you understand?" After Long Batian finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao trembled, held back the shock in his heart, and said: "The minister understands, Your Majesty is Shengming, and the minister firmly believes that Your Majesty will be able to set things right and calm the world in the end!" ”

Taking a deep look at Zhao Gao, Long Batian laughed and said: "Get up, remember my words, go and arrange it, by the way, send someone to find out all the forces under Xiliang Dong Zhuo, in the near future, I will find him for a decisive battle!" ”

"Command!" Zhao Gao said firmly.
