"Divine decree?" Liu Chen frowned slightly, looked at the thing in his hand at this moment, and said after a moment of silence, "Since it is the holy decree of His Majesty the Emperor, do I want to bathe and change my clothes and perform the three knocks?" ”

"Haha, Brother Liu, it seems that you really don't understand, if you are an ordinary person, of course you need to, but you are different. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Zhong Yi laughed and said, "In this world, the innate strong have a transcendent status, it can be seen that the emperor does not kneel, Brother Liu, you are a congenital strongman, how can you want to salute, this holy decree, take it." As he spoke, he handed the holy decree in his hand to Liu Chen.

Liu Chen looked at Zhong Yi with some suspicion, but in the end he took the holy decree and unfolded the holy decree in front of Zhong Yi, he hadn't read the content yet, but he was shocked in his own heart, but he quickly calmed down his mood and didn't reveal the slightest inappropriateness, and then looked at the content, there were only dozens of words on it, but it was his holy decree of reward.

The content of the holy decree is nothing more than that His Majesty the Emperor cherishes talents, Liu Chen has made meritorious contributions to resisting the Dongying people, sealing the town of Beihou, and Beiping County is the back cover, and it is even mentioned that Liu Chen will go crazy and try to be strong for the country to resist invaders from the north!

After reading the holy decree, Liu Chen sneered in his heart, he also thought that the emperor of the Donglong Empire was really so kind and wanted to make him a marquis, it turned out that he had made up his mind to let Liu Chen help him guard the frontier, Beiping is the land of four wars, although the current Beiping is still in the territory of the Donglong Empire, but it is facing three strong enemies.

Although Liu Chen came to this world not long ago, he still knows a thing or two about the current situation in this world, the three northeastern provinces have long fallen, and have been divided by the Jin State, the Liao State and the Goryeo State, among which the Liao State occupies the largest land area, and the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms are now hoarded in a place less than eight hundred miles away from Beiping, and fools know that Beiping is definitely an unsafe place now, but the fief given to Liu Chen was sealed in Beiping, which is the idea of killing people with a knife.

Liu Chen's heart is like a mirror, this knife is well borrowed, you can not only borrow the knife of the three empires to kill yourself, but also borrow your own knife to resist the three enemy countries, anyway, the emperor has nothing to lose, and when the time comes, he will really fight to defeat both sides, and the Donglong Emperor will attack and destroy it in one fell swoop, and this cheap will be picked up.

Although he knew the intention of the Donglong Emperor, Liu Chen still accepted this holy decree with a smile.

Seeing this, Zhong Yi also stood up, hugged his fists at Liu Chen and said: "Since Brother Liu, oh no, it is the Hou of Zhenbei, you have received the holy decree, and the task under it has been completed, or it won't be long before the content of this holy decree will be announced to the world, so I will no longer disturb the Hou Ye in the future, and I will leave!" As he spoke, he was ready to leave.

"Wait!" Liu Chen opened his mouth to stop Zhong Yi and said, "Brother Zhong has come all the way here to deliver the holy decree, how can he leave without a drop of wine?" Come, come, I have already commanded to go down, eat and drink at my place before leaving! ”

I don't know that I like to say that I am right: "Hou Ye, I really have the emperor's order in the next place, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, Hou Ye's kindness is in my heart, but I also want to say to Hou Ye, please Hou Ye think more about the people of Beiping County!" After Zhong Yi finished speaking, he once again hugged his fist at Liu Chen, and then turned around and left without looking back.

Looking at the back of Zhong Yi's departure, the corners of Liu Chen's mouth flashed a hint of curvature, he naturally knew the meaning of Zhong Yi's last sentence, which was urging him to enter Beiping County as soon as possible, but the current Beiping County is not a good place!

Liu Chen just sat down, only to see Xiao He, Meng Wu, Li Guang, Situ Qingfeng, Meng Tian and Liu Qi striding in, everyone bowed to Liu Chen, only to hear Xiao He say: "Lord, what is the matter with the people of Shadow Dragon Guard?" ”

They knew Zhong Yi's identity earlier, and they also knew that Zhong Yi was an innate master, so they had been waiting outside the hall for a long time, for fear that Liu Chen would make a mistake, and when they saw Zhong Yi leaving at this moment, they also walked in quickly.

Liu Chen waved his hand, signaling them not to be polite, and then picked up the holy decree, handed it in advance, and said, "See for yourself!" ”

Xiao He stepped forward and opened the holy decree, and several other people also came over, reading the content of the holy decree together, and slowly, their faces also had thoughtful expressions.

"Lord, the emperor's holy decree is obviously uneasy and kind, although the Han army is now strong, but that Beiping County is not something we can suppress now, now Beiping County is always facing the threat of hundreds of thousands of troops from the three major powers, if we let Beishan at this time, it will definitely be annihilated!" Meng Wu was the first to speak.

"It's not without benefits!" Situ Qingfeng also spoke, and said thoughtfully, "At least we have changed our identity now, and we are no longer a civilian armed force, with the cover of the empire, our Han army is more easily recognized by the people!" ”

Everyone else nodded, Meng Wu and Situ Qingfeng were not wrong, this holy decree has advantages and disadvantages, it mainly depends on how Liu Chen chooses.

"What do you mean, lord?" Xiao He glanced at Liu Chen and asked.

"Hehe, naturally it's the order!" Liu Chen smiled and said, "With this tiger skin, who would dare to say that our Han army is an improper army?" Besides, the area of Beiping County is not small, with an area of more than 2,000 miles, and having such a piece of land is an opportunity for our Han army! ”

"But my lord, Beiping County is not safe now!" Xiao He said with a solemn expression, "Whether it is the Jin Kingdom, the Liao Kingdom or the Goryeo Kingdom, their strength is not weak, if we go to Beiping County, we will face the three major powers, plus the Dongying Empire on the east side of the sea, one is not good, maybe we will be surrounded by foreign powers!" ”

Looking at everyone's somewhat sad faces, Liu Chen smiled and said: "I didn't say that I would pull all the Han troops to Beiping County now, now it's purely to send them to death, I'm not so stupid!" ”

Everyone looked at each other, Liu Chen's smile made them a little confused, if they didn't go, it would definitely not work, if they didn't go, it would be against the emperor's order, and if the princes from all walks of life wanted to crusade against the Han army, they would be famous, and if they went, they would be sent to death, they didn't understand what Liu Chen was thinking.

Seeing everyone's doubts, Liu Chen smiled and said: "There is no difference between going to Beiping County and sending them to death now, and the territory here in Weihai County has made us work hard, I will not give up, but then again, Beiping County will still go, but there is no need for all the Han army to go!" ”

"Why is that?" Li Guang felt that his mind was a little swollen.

"It's easy!" Liu Chen said with a smile, "I will send soldiers, but only send a battalion of troops, here is not less than four thousand miles away from Beiping County, even the marching speed of the cavalry takes nearly two months, if our army arrives in Beiping County, and Beiping County has fallen, then we can only come back?" This march is considered a training, take your time, we are not in a hurry! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly realized, and looked at Liu Chen with some tears and laughter, this is obviously a trick!

"Lord, if we sit back and watch the fall of Beiping County like this, I am afraid that it will be true, and it will also be a big blow to the reputation of our Han army!" Meng Tian suddenly said aloud.

Everyone fell into a quiet state again, their faces changed slightly, and it was obvious that they also thought of this stubble, the purpose of the Han army was to put people first, and if they sat and watched the people of their fiefdoms trampled on by foreign enemies soon, they would indeed lose people's hearts.

"Hey!" Liu Chen sighed and said, "Save Beiping, we can't do it with our current strength, but the number of people in Beiping County must not be many now, my idea is to let the intelligence officers under Liu Qi go to Beiping, evacuate the people of Beiping County as much as possible, and let them move south, in addition, our sailors will also be used, go to the area of Tianjin, and be ready for battle at any time, no matter what, in Beiping County, we must fight a battle!" ”

Xiao He, Meng Wu and others listened to it, and they all felt that this was the only way at present, after all, the time when the Han army was established is too short, the 130,000 army, and the new soldiers account for seventy percent, which is not suitable for large-scale use of troops, and it is already the limit of the Han army to achieve this.

Several people glanced at each other, and then bowed to Liu Chen in unison and said, "Everything depends on the lord's choice!" ”
