Just like Zhang Chao, he is not a war maniac, if everyone in the world is willing to belong to the Celestial Empire, of course he will not shout and shout and kill, but this is just a fantasy, why should others merge into your Celestial Empire, not your forces into their kingdom?

In this way, you also want to be the emperor, and he also wants to be the king, and there is a conflict of interest, and it cannot be reconciled, and then the war will play a decisive role.

This time, the military action against the Rus' country was just to defend his dignity, it was just a way for him to prove his ability to the outside world, and he must say that he would occupy or even annex it, he had no idea now.

In any case, Rus is also a European army, whether it is territory, military and financial strength is far beyond itself, and it is not an overnight thing to annex them.

Even if it occupies a certain initiative now, it is nothing more than because of the good planning in advance, and with the arrogance of the other party, he caught others off guard. If it is really one-on-one, not to mention defeat, even if it is a victory, it will be a miserable victory, at that time, I am afraid that he will be greatly injured, which is equivalent to giving others a chance to take advantage of.

Zhang Chao is not stupid, on the contrary, before doing everything, it seems to be impulsive, but in fact, he has already considered his own requests, and even made the worst and best plans.

Just like this war with the Rus' country, the worst plan will naturally end in failure, and at that time, he will cede the newly occupied Buyeo Rulou forces, believing that with these benefits, he can satisfy the appetite of the Rus' country. Of course, now it seems that there is no need for this, the battle has been fought to this extent, everything is under his control, which is very good, which allows him to think of a good way, that is, to teach Rose a lesson through this battle, so that they dare not underestimate themselves, of course, and more importantly, also take this opportunity to prove to the world that no matter who you are, if you provoke my Celestial Empire, there will be no good fruit to eat.

In order to achieve this goal, Zhang Chao decided that the army would stop advancing, and he had already occupied a Haipaolan, which was equivalent to teaching the Rus country a lesson, and it was not appropriate to occupy any city in the future, otherwise, it would really be an invasion.

Of course, if the war ends now, it will not be possible to achieve the goal of teaching the Rus a lesson, and on the contrary, it will make people think that they are afraid. But what can be done so that they do not occupy their city, and when they are given face, they are dealt a heavy blow?

Zhang Chao thought about it, and the final decision he made was to show his strong military strength, and the best way to show it was naturally to see the truth in the war. That's why he asked the dragon and tiger legion's dragoon to stop in front of the city of Adan.

Zhang Chao didn't plan to occupy the city anymore, after hearing the news from the scouts, especially when he knew that there was a huge wide land in front of Adan City, he decided to show his strength there, and he wanted to let the army of the Rus Kingdom know that he was powerful through a battle. Only by suffering such a big loss, when they face the Celestial Empire in the future, will they have more eyes and learn more lessons.

Adan City is in front of you, and Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, who have received the order, are stationed ten miles outside the city with a large army at this moment.

Both of them were a little puzzled by His Majesty's order, but under the holy decree, they categorically did not dare to disobey the order, and all they had to do was to wait for themselves. Fortunately, the waiting time was not too long, only five days later, Zhang Chao, the First Emperor of Heaven, arrived here with the main army of the first, fourth, and seventh legions.

The reason why it is said to be the main army is because it is not all, first, the two countries of Buyeo and Rulou, which have just occupied, need to send people to garrison, and there are a lot of captives that also need to be retrained, and this matter is mainly done by a legion, after all, this is the old foundation of Zhang Chao's family, although in the end, many people went to other legions to take up high positions, but still half of them stayed, so it is appropriate for them to train soldiers.

But although it is not the main force, the three legions also have a total of 400,000 people, including 100,000 in the first legion, 150,000 in the fourth legion, and 150,000 in the seventh legion, plus the two legions of dragon and tiger and dragoon who came here first, which is equivalent to having 800,000 troops.

There are 800,000 soldiers, and there are generals such as Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, and Wen Chou.

After Zhang Chao arrived, he entered the big tent prepared by Zhao Yun early in the morning, and all the equipment in it was prepared according to the etiquette, and even the ground in the tent was covered with golden blankets, which was also to show the majesty of the emperor.

Zhang Chao didn't care about these. In the past, when he was in the palace of Jinyang City, Lu Su would teach him how to do it, and even there were rules on which leg to take first and which one to take later, and he had long been used to it. Now it has been changed from Lu Su to Zhao Yun, but it is just a different person.

It's just that although he has long been used to it, Zhang Chao couldn't help but joke when he entered the tent: "Zilong, this can't be what the Queen of Goryeo taught you." ”

Zhao Yun is the king of Goryeo, and he can be regarded as a horse master, and he has lived in the palace for a long time, so naturally he is more aware of the etiquette of these royal families, so it is no wonder that Zhang Chao will say this.

Zhang Chao suddenly made a joke, which Zhao Yun had not thought about. Although such things had happened before, it was when the Celestial Empire had not been established, and at that time the lords and ministers did not distinguish so clearly.

It's just that Zhao Yun was only surprised, and then he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this is all Lord Lu Su's letter to Yu Chende." ”

"Oh, hehe, this son is really lenient, I'm so far away from the palace, he still doesn't feel at ease." While speaking, Zhang Chao shook his head, it was a little painstaking, obviously for the direct minister Lu Su, he liked it and had a headache.

Zhang Chao said that Lu Su was lenient, but no one would really take it to heart, because everyone knew that this sentence was not derogatory, and it was not to blame anyone.

Zhang Chao strode towards the dragon chair in the tent, and Zhao Yun and the others naturally stood two feet away and waited. It's just that at this moment in the team, there is one person whose face is not good-looking, and he is Ma Chao.

Ma Chao wanted to sue, and it was Zhao Yun who was sue.

In the battle of Dahu Mountain, Zhao Yun actually ordered his dragoon army to cooperate with them in battle, although the final facts proved that they were right, but he really couldn't swallow this breath, he just wanted to ask Zhang Chao today, who is also the commander of the legion, whether Zhao Yun has the power to control and manage them.

But just now, after Zhang Chao came, he made a joke with Zhao Yun, which made him feel shocked, he had long heard that Zhao Yun and the First Emperor had known each other for a long time and had a good relationship, but he never thought that there would be no more changes after becoming the emperor, even if this is the case, is it wise for him to stand up and sue now?

When Ma Chao was hesitating, Ma Dai, who was standing not far away, was indeed very anxious. He also saw the scene of Zhang Chao and Zhao Yun joking just now, and he couldn't help but feel Geden in his heart, this is a signal, and it is also a proof of the closeness of the relationship.

Even so, if his brother wants to sue Zhao Yun now, isn't that unhappy? The Ma family has not been in the Celestial Empire for a long time, and its foothold is not stable, so it is not suitable to go against Zhao Yun, who has deep roots.

Ma Dai is a military general, but he is also a wise minister, and he naturally has more ideas than others, and it is precisely because of this that he thought of all kinds of troubles and possibilities, so he hurriedly signaled to Ma Chao with his eyes, hoping that he could suppress the idea of complaining and think about it in the long run.

It's just that Ma Chao at this time didn't even look at him, just lowered his head and thought about his own affairs.

Zhang Chao finally walked to the dragon chair, and then slowly sat down. As he sat down, all the civil and military in the tent fell to their knees, and then shouted the words of long live.

"Okay, this is the barracks, no need to be polite in the future, let's get up." Zhang Chao said with a smile.

Everyone stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

"Hehe, you have performed very well, attacking Lou Zhanfu Yuzhen Rus, showing the strength of our Celestial Empire army, after returning to the Dynasty, I will reward them one by one." Zhang Chao said with a smile, obviously, he was in a good mood at this time.

Listening to Zhang Chao's praise, everyone in the tent had a smile on their faces, looking very happy. And at this time, Ma Chao did suddenly stand up, and then half-knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a play." ”

"Oh, it's Meng Qi, what's the matter, get up and speak." Seeing Ma Chao say that there was a book to play, Zhang Chao was stunned for a moment, this place is far away from the court, he really can't think of anything else to play, can it be said that he was possessed by Lu Su?

Ma Chao didn't get up after hearing this, but still bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask if I am the commander of the Dragoon Army." ”

"Well, that's natural." Zhang Chao didn't understand what he meant, but he nodded first and agreed.

"Your Majesty, did you say that you will not grant the order of the foreign monarch, as the commander of an army, do I have the right to mobilize my own military horses and adapt to the enemy?" Ma Chao continued to kneel on the ground and clenched his fists and asked.

"Not bad. Unless I have expressly willed, you are free to do your own thing. Zhang Chao's face was also solemn at this moment, he had a hunch that Ma Chao should have something to say, but he hadn't figured out what he wanted to say.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhang Chao just replied, and another general stood up in the team and knelt on the ground, shouted loudly and said: "Our regiment commander just wants to find out what other people's authority is, and has no other meaning, hehe." ”
