Looking at the emperors of various countries, no one said that it could be compared to Zhao Changqing's great achievements, and even Emperor Liang Xu Fengyun personally admitted that Emperor Wei Zhao Changqing was a peerless hero who was rare for hundreds of years.

However, Emperor Duan can't distinguish the current situation at all, and he still thinks that with his own strength, he can really solve the country's troubles.

As everyone knows, the real problem is still to come.

The Tang army began to encircle the capital of Duanguo.

The important towns in the south of Duanguo have gathered 100,000 people, known as a million heroes to go to King Qin.

But the army of the Tang State has nothing to be afraid of at all, it should besiege the city, it should block and block, after the siege, outside the imperial capital of Duanguo, dozens of battles of all sizes were launched one after another, and the so-called army of Duanguo Qinwang was almost lost.

The people who came to King Qin were all some recruits, and many of them had never even been on the battlefield, so it was impossible for them to be the opponents of the Tang Army who won all battles.

The princes and ministers of Duanguo in the city knew that after King Qin's army was defeated again and again, they were already angry and discouraged, and they did not want to stick to the national capital and wanted to live.

Many people have this mentality, which leads to everyone in the capital now being frightened, and they all feel that a catastrophe is coming.

But Emperor Duan's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, after experiencing so many failures, he still feels that it doesn't matter, and still feels that it is just bad luck, and he will be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish to become an emperor through the ages, and change his life against the sky.

The defeat of the Qinwang army was just a big deal.

These days, the Tang army is only besieging the city and delaying the attack, and the eldest grandson Chong thinks in his heart that the Tang army is not sure of victory and can capture the capital, so it will besiege but not fight.

However, he, who didn't know how to fight at all, didn't understand it at all, this was the strategy of the Tang Army.

Encircle but not fight, first let the morale of the army and the people in the city be weakened, and then the so-called Duanguo and the national capital will naturally be self-defeating.

What's more, the Don Army still has a solid ally who has not yet appeared.

He is the State of Wei!

The Tang Army needs to know what their exact movements are in order to truly make bold decisions with confidence.

Luoyang Imperial City.

The crown prince was accompanying Zhao Changqing to play chess in the pavilion.

Zhuge Liang told the recent information about Duanguo one by one.

Now, the Tang army is besieging the city, and the timing is just right.

Zhao Changqing was not in a hurry to make a decision, he looked at the crown prince Zhao Hongqing, and deliberately asked, "Wu'er, how do you think you should make a choice about this matter?"

Zhao Hongqing hesitated for a long time before dropping the chess piece that he had been holding on the chessboard, and then said: "Father, can we send the capital of Duanguo to Tang? ”

After Zhuge Liang heard the prince's answer, he showed a surprised expression.

Zhao Changqing laughed and said: "What a good prince, then the father will ask you again, why did you give up the capital of Duanguo to Tang Guo?"

The crown prince said solemnly: "Father, this capital, to put it bluntly, is just a city and county, although it is the richest town in Duanguo, but the value of the southern towns is far more important than a capital.

Tang Guo did not hesitate to attack the capital of Duanguo so much, just to take the capital, the temptation of the capital is enough to contain their nerves, why bother to earn a capital with them and give up a few towns in the south of Duanguo?

According to the children, the southern towns of Duanguo are rich in horses, which can enrich our cavalry and provide assistance for the development of cavalry in the future, but what can a capital bring us? ”

Zhao Changqing got up and said to the prince, "Okay, I'll do what you want." ”

The prince was frightened when he heard this, and hurriedly got up and said, "Father, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, the sons and ministers are soft-spoken."

Before Zhao Changqing could speak, Zhuge Liang spoke, and he said: "You are the prince of a country, the prince, and the country, under the whole world, who dares to say that you are a soft-spoken person?"

The prince said to Zhuge Liang: "The teacher is right, but after all, the disciple is still young, I'm afraid"

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "The prince doesn't have to worry, when Your Majesty is your age, he has already begun to accumulate his strength with Shen Wansan, His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen also believes in your judgment." ”

He knew that the emperor's mind was to take advantage of national affairs and cultivate the crown prince from an early age.

Moreover, what the prince said was indeed quite similar to the strategic intentions they had adopted against Duanguo from the beginning.

Zhao Changqing said: "Leave it to the cabinet to draw up the decree, let Chen Qingzhi wait for the opportunity, grasp the opportunity, and be sure to take all the important military towns in the south of Duanguo." ”

Zhuge Liang solemnly said: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Changqing looked at the crown prince and said, "You go down first, write down the plan you said today on paper, and my father will read it later." ”

The crown prince said, "It's my father." ”

After he retreated, Zhao Changqing asked Zhuge Liang, "Kong Ming, what do you think of the prince?"

Zhuge said excitedly: "Your Majesty has a successor!"

The evaluation he gave was already very high.

Zhao Changqing is obviously very satisfied, after all, as a father, he likes others to praise his children, and he will have a sense of pride in his heart.

He spoke again: "If the crown prince succeeds to the throne in the future, what do you think can be done at most?"

Zhuge Liang replied without thinking about it: "Create another prosperous era." ”

"Another prosperous world?"

Zhao Changqing fell into deep thought.

Perhaps, this world can be handed over to oneself to defeat, but it is absolutely impossible to rule by oneself.

Because from beginning to end, what he wanted to do was to dominate the world and get enough mediocrity to help him live forever.

In the future, the burden of ruling the world will still fall on the crown prince.

After Zhuge Liang retreated, he immediately dispatched a master to pass the holy decree to Chen Qingzhi's hands with the fastest foot strength.

Zhao Changqing came to the East Palace to visit Jing Ke.

Since the last time he was seriously injured and dying, Jing Ke has barely been able to stand and walk, but he still can't lift his strength up and down, and his cultivation has been lost.

Zhao Changqing looked at Jing Ke writing on the sand table, and saw that he had written several fonts, so he asked, "What are these words?"

Jing Ke, who was immersed in writing, was taken aback when he heard the sound, and hurriedly bowed to the emperor and said, "My subordinates see Your Majesty, I wish"

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Changqing stopped him and said: "If you are injured, you don't need to be polite, you know, I have always hesitated to give this vulgar courtesy." ”

Jing Ke nodded and said, "Why is Your Majesty free to come over today?"

Zhao Changqing scolded with a smile: "What, can't I come to see you?"

Jing Ke suddenly panicked, and hurriedly smiled: "I haven't seen Your Majesty for a long time, but I can see it today, and I am a little excited in my heart." ”

Zhao Changqing shook his head and asked with a smile: "You haven't told me what these words you wrote, what do they mean, I only know one word 'sword', and I don't know the rest of the words." ”

Jing Ke said: "Actually, these are sword words, but I don't complain about Your Majesty, because these words are all words produced in other countries during the Five Hegemons and the Warring States Period. ”

"Nineteen ways to write?" Zhao Changqing was taken aback and couldn't believe it: "A 'sword' word, there are nineteen ways to write it?"

Jing Ke nodded and said, "Your Majesty, if you add ancient characters, it is estimated that there will be more than twenty ways to write a sword character." ”

Zhao Changqing pondered for a moment and said: "There are only nineteen ways to write a sword character and they don't recognize each other, after I unify the six countries, I will abolish all these miscellaneous words, leaving only one, wouldn't it be happy!"

Jing Ke was stunned, and he said, "Your Majesty is still far-sighted!"

Zhao Changqing already has a plan in his heart, after dominating the world in the future, he must unify the writing of the whole world, this matter, in contemporary times, must be an extremely mediocre thing, after all, words are the source of literature, and leaving only one kind of writing is a kind of harm to literature.

Scholars all over the world will definitely not agree.

However, this event is conducive to the unification of future generations.

Isn't it a win-win-win thing to be able to earn mediocre value and think about future generations?

In fact, Zhao Changqing's thoughts at the moment can be summed up in one sentence, that is, 'living in the present generation, benefiting the future'.
