Guo Jia, who was on the side, heard this, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, according to the laws of our Celestial Empire, when the lower officials meet the upper officials, and when the courtiers meet the emperor, they must dress appropriately, and they cannot wear rags, otherwise they will be shown disrespect." ”

Zhang Chao, who originally didn't know why Zhao Yun said that he was guilty, was stunned after hearing this. In his view, a great country should have the appearance of a great power, and this should be stipulated not only in terms of spirit and method of doing things, but also in terms of clothing and behavior.

And it is precisely because of this regulation that Zhao Yunnei wears clothes with patches to see him, which is naturally disrespectful.

"Quick, Zilong, please get up." Zhang Chao stretched out his hand to support Zhao Yun who was kneeling, and said to Guo Jia behind him: "Fengxiao, pass on my will, and the law that you can't wear old clothes to see Shangguan will be canceled." ”

In the earliest days, when Zhang Chao established the Celestial Empire, he did have all kinds of ideas, and he always wanted to build a perfect country. But as time went on, and after some things, he felt that the original law was not very sound. Like the current one, he thinks it's inappropriate. It's not that wearing old clothes to see Shangguan is disrespectful, on the contrary, it's not that wearing new clothes is respect.

"Obey." Guo Jia has long been unaccustomed to this law. Many times, when he went down to inspect the area, he could not meet the local officials at the first time, and asked the reason for this, because they had all gone back to their homes to change their clothes. In his opinion, this makes some things more efficient to do, so he has the intention to remind him, but there is no suitable time, and Zhao Yun's matter solves this problem.

After ordering the revocation of this law, Zhang Chao wanted to take a look at the underwear that Zhao Yun was wearing.

What the emperor wanted to do, Zhao Yun couldn't stop it, so he reluctantly took off the official uniform outside, and the exposed underwear really had a patch at each elbow. Obviously, this is because Zhao Yun has reviewed too many articles.

"Zilong, I'm sorry for you, I've put too much burden on you." When he saw the obvious patch on Zhao Yun's elbow, Zhang Chao was a little choked up when he spoke.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have thought that the first-class member of the Celestial Empire, and at the same time the identity of the army commander, or the king of Goryeo would have patches on his clothes? Even Zhao Yun was like this, so one can imagine what would happen to the officials and generals at other levels of the entire Dragon and Tiger Legion.

In the past, he always thought that Goryeo was rich, after all, the territory expanded, the land area also increased, and the people increased, so the taxes collected were naturally very large, and they only needed to pay half of the profits and taxes every year, and the rest was used for military expenses and the construction of the city.

He thought that under such a ratio, Goryeo was rich, but now he realized that the situation here was far from as good as he imagined.

In other words, the Celestial Empire opened trade routes early, which indeed created the best opportunity for them and earned a lot of money. However, over the years, the wars of the Celestial Empire have continued, fighting Xianbei, Xiongnu and Yuan Shao, conquering Cao Cao, fighting Liu Bei, and fighting for Sun Quan, including the recent dispute in the Western Regions, which one does not require a lot of money to supply and support?

In contrast, the money made in business has long been insufficient. And it is precisely because of the unity of the whole family that the Celestial Empire can be advanced to this day, just like Zhao Yun, if he is a loser, where can he prepare for war in addition to his own economic tension? I'm afraid that if it is replaced by someone else, it will be good to be able to maintain the situation.

Thinking of Zhao Yun's dedication and deeds, Zhang Chao patted the other party's shoulder with emotion and said, "Zilong, I'm sorry for you." I used to let you follow me to enjoy glory and wealth, but now, it is indeed my fault that I have made you live so poorly. ”

"Your Majesty." Hearing Zhang Chao take the initiative to admit his mistake, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, Fa Zheng, Xu Chu and others in the account all knelt on the ground one by one, obviously humiliating the courtiers, and they were also self-examining.

"All right, get up, all of you. Now I know how hard it is to you. Please also rest assured that the Celestial Empire will definitely get better and better, and your efforts will definitely be rewarded. Zhang Chao has made up his mind at this moment, he must take charge of the country well, so that these people who believe in him can live a good life, otherwise, no matter how big the country is, he will not have the slightest sense of glory.

Seeing that Zhao Yun had put on his coat, Zhang Chao's face quickly returned to a bland color, and then asked Guo Jiadao, the minister on the side, "Is there any news from the Sixth Legion?" ”

"Back to the emperor, not yet. But I think it should be fast, as far as we know, the situation of the second prince Ivan is not very good now. Guo Jia knew what Zhang Chao meant by asking, that is, he was a little impatient. If it was said that it was because he was worried about the problem of grain and grass that the army was too concentrated, then now that he saw the true situation of Zhao Yun, he was afraid that he would only be more anxious in his heart, and naturally he was more urgent about going to the Rus country.

"No news yet?" Hearing Guo Jia's answer, Zhang Chao was slightly dissatisfied. Now that Goryeo's economic situation is not good, in the long run, even if the Rus' country can afford it, he can't afford it. Thinking like this, he said: "In this way, pass on the order, let everyone be ready to fight at any time, within five days, if there is no news back, then we will take the initiative to attack, don't have to consider Ivan's attitude, I don't believe it, at this time, my army has been killed, and anyone dares to resist us?" ”

Zhang Chao is really anxious. After receiving the news of the civil strife in Russ that day, he gave up the pursuit of Zhuge Liang and came north with a large army. I thought that I could take the opportunity to severely damage the Rus' country and even take this vast land. Unexpectedly, they only needed 500,000 reinforcements, which made Zhang Chao only suppress his temperament and send the Sixth Army Corps. But it's been almost a month, and there is really no movement, and if this continues, the food and drink of the army will become a problem, and he doesn't want to wait any longer.

Even if no one asks him to force himself to send troops now, it will attract the Rus State and the second prince to be full, and even if one is not good, they will join forces to deal with him, but he really can't care so much now. With the GI in hand, they really can't fight, but they have to consume a lot of food every day, and this kind of thing can't continue to happen.

"Yes." Although Guo Jia felt something wrong after listening to Zhang Chao's words, he did know that now was not the time to raise objections. Besides, isn't there still five days left? Maybe there's good news.

The real situation in Goryeo made Zhang Chao a little impatient, and the army also made a request to be ready for war at all times after an order. For a while, the atmosphere in the army became extremely tense.

All the high-ranking generals were well aware of the fact that without Ivan's permission, the entry of the army into the Rus' territory represented something, and it was not to help, but to invade. In this way, not to mention that it is not reasonable to say that it is not reasonable to say that Ivan will join forces with his brother Anatoly? If so, what will happen to them?

And just when everyone was thinking about whether the emperor would really order the troops to be sent if they didn't get the news five days later, the secret letter written by Li Ru and Dian Wei was finally sent to Zhang Chao's case.

Finally sent back the news, and it was still good news, Ivan Bu asked the Celestial Empire to send a large army to help, and at the same time would pay for all the food, grass and ordnance used in the war, all this news was placed in front of Zhang Chao, and finally that calm face relaxed at this moment.

"Zhong Kang, order all the deputy legions and below the rank of the rank to enter the account."

As the order was given, soon the chief and deputy commanders of the various legions rushed towards the emperor's tent, and three hours later, even the commanders of the legions, who were farthest away from the emperor's tent, rushed over. At this moment, the tent has already been crowded, and as soon as it is in the account, it gives people a strong sense of murder.

Seeing that the personnel had arrived, Zhang Chao first nodded with satisfaction, and then took out the letter written by Li Ru and Dian Wei and handed it to Guo Jia on the side, and asked him to read it out in public.

Hearing that this was Ivan's letter asking for help, a smile bloomed on the faces of all the generals. With this reason, at least there is no need to worry about the Rus' Congress uniting against themselves, so that after they enter the territory of Rus', the pressure they will face will be half less, and everyone can't help but be happy.

Seeing that everyone liked it, Zhang Chao stretched out his hand and pressed down in the air, stopping everyone's discussion below, and after everything was quiet, he said out loud: "The Sixth Army lived up to expectations and achieved the matter of leading our army into the country. So what do you do next? ”

"Kill! Kill! Kill! All the generals said almost in unison, listening to the emperor's meaning, the Sixth Army has made great achievements, and then it is time for them to perform well.

"Not bad. The only way to kill the word is to kill yourself. Please remember that this time we are entering the territory of Rus', where all will be our enemies, and the difference is only between the present and the future. Therefore, I ask everyone not to hide their skills, but to show twelve times the spirit to kill me, to kill the military might of our Celestial Empire, and to kill the momentum of our Celestial Empire. ”

"This time, we are facing an enemy who is much more physically and qualitatively than us. Because of their eating habits and genetics, they are born taller and stronger than us, and if they only fight alone, they are afraid that most soldiers are not their opponents, and this requires us to perform well. Commander Dian Wei has already said in the letter, if it is one-on-one encounter with the Rus soldiers, we are not advantageous, only by long-range bow and arrow strikes and cooperation, as long as everyone cooperates well, then I believe that victory ultimately belongs to us, because everyone is a veteran of the battlefield, are people who have experienced countless lives and deaths, this time I believe that you will have a better performance, I hope that when the war is over, I can still see everyone. ”
