Chapter 268: There are demons in the world
If he hadn't been to Taishan Dao Palace and hadn't seen the Tianjizi seniors, Zhao Changqing wouldn't have believed the content of this letter at all.
How can there be demons in the world?
But after seeing all kinds of magical methods of Tianjizi's predecessors, Zhao Changqing felt that the world was so big, there were no surprises, and there was just a demon, what did it feel strange?
He handed the secret letter to Zhuge Liang, who was standing aside, to watch.
After reading it, the latter's face was shocked and incredible, and after componing himself, he muttered: "Your Majesty, the truth of this matter is not yet known, if there is a demon in the world, I am afraid that it will already cause trouble in the world, and Weichen is skeptical about this matter." ”
Zhao Changqing smiled after hearing this: "I think that this matter is eighty percent true, Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, the world we are in is more interesting than what we see."
In the Taishan Dao Palace, I once communicated with a worldly martial arts supreme powerhouse, according to what he said, there were indeed demons in this world, and indeed as you said, these demons have caused trouble in the world.
But fortunately, the warriors at that time were all self-reliant, and they worked hard to finally drive those demon clans out of the world. But at that time, there were really too many big demons that invaded the world, and it was not surprising that one or two fish slipped through the net.
Moreover, the lifespan of a demon is much longer than that of a martial artist of the same level, so it is no problem to survive in an ancient tomb for so long or even thousands of years. ”
Even though Zhuge Liang's wisdom soared to the sky, the first time he encountered something that changed his worldview, he couldn't help but be shocked, and secretly frowned: "It turns out that in this world, there are really things that I don't understand. ”
Thinking of this, he asked Zhao Changqing and said, "Your Majesty, if there really is a demon in this world, what should we do at this moment?"
Zhao Changqing frowned, this question is to the point, it is really too far away from the capital of Wei Kingdom to the north of the Jin Kingdom, one south and one north, it will take more than a month to go back and forth, and when the imperial court will send it there, I am afraid that the daylily will be cold.
After pondering for a while, Zhao Changqing summoned Jian Yi in the Xuanzheng Palace, asked him to read the secret letter sent by Lu Bing, and said: "I plan to send you to see the truth and the truth, in case a demon appears in Beiliang of the Jin Kingdom, you can wait for the opportunity to act, and we will have to fight for what those Jianghu sects want to get." ”
Jian Yi maintained a suspicion of this matter, but after hearing the emperor's words, he didn't say a word, and immediately clenched his fists and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen understands, so he will set off immediately and rush to Beiliang of the Jin Kingdom, but after Weichen leaves, who should protect Your Majesty in this palace?"
Zhao Changqing smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about my safety, just work hard to do the errand I gave you." After all, I now have the national fortune protection body, coupled with the cultivation of the land immortal realm, except for a few old immortals, no one in the whole world can endanger my life. ”
Speaking of which, he was also contemplating.
After the system wakes up, be sure to exchange a few masters.
The purpose is not to protect himself, but to let people do errands, so as not to let the sword go all the time, especially during this time, he has just lost a brother.
Jian Yi said, "Then go down and pack your things and set off immediately." ”
Zhao Changqing nodded and said, "Jian Yi, thank you for your hard work, my brother just died, and I want you to go out of this long way, I really feel ashamed." ”
Jian Yi said: "Your Majesty, don't be like this, it is the duty of a courtier to share your worries, not to mention, the minister is not only the brother of Jian Wu, but also the sword saint of Wei." ”
Zhao Changqing didn't know what to say, so he had to send Jian Yi out of the capital in person.
On the way back to the palace, he kept thinking, hoping that Jianyi's trip would be rewarding.
In the nearly a month since Lu Bing arrived in Beiliang and sent a secret letter, a lot of big things have happened.
The first is the construction of the canal. This time, the Ministry of Industry recruited more than 5 million people.
Of course, this is just the beginning.
The number of follow-up people will definitely continue to increase.
But in doing so, it undoubtedly increases the burden on the state.
The common people began to complain more or less.
This is what Zhao Changqing is happy to see.
It's good to have complaints, and if you have complaints, you mean that you have mediocrity.
But even if there is a mediocre value, I am afraid it is very rare.
Because the time for those complaints to exist is only fleeting, they are soon drowned out by the voice of 'fighting for the country, loyalty and patriotism'.
Then there was the conscription.
This time, Zhao Changqing planned to train the 300,000 army summoned into an invincible iron army, commanded by himself.
Whether it's a war horse or equipment, all use the best.
It's completely emulating the template of the heavy armor iron rider that was drawn out of the system at the beginning.
100,000 light horsemen, 200,000 heavy armored iron horsemen.
According to Zhuge Liang's meaning, this army is completely prepared for a decisive battle with the Northern Liang Iron Cavalry of the Jin State when it captures the Jin State in the future.
Looking up to Beiliang like this, Zhao Changqing felt that they should be content like Xu Cripple.
In the end, there is the battle at the border pass.
Half a month ago, the main forces of the two armies again waged war on the banks of the Wuding River.
In this battle, the two armies put a total of more than 600,000 men.
Later, Chen Qingzhi led the white-robed army to steal the city.
After a few days and nights of running with the enemy's main force exhausted, the white-robed army finally succeeded in burning about half of the enemy's grain and grass under the condition of super-intensive movement.
This approach also played the role of 'encircling Wei and saving Zhao', relieving the pressure of the forward troops in the Wuding River, but unfortunately, with the full cooperation of the three armies, it was only a little bit short of being able to capture the enemy commander Qin Hengsheng alive.
This Qin Heng is not a loss of being proficient in the art of war, and after feeling that something was wrong at the first time, he set up a suspicious situation, so that the main force could successfully transfer troops to snipe Chen Qingzhi.
So that the Wei army also successfully missed the opportunity to annihilate the Jin army in one fell swoop.
In general, the Wei army won a small victory, and there was no big victory as expected.
However, after burning the enemy's grain and grass and occupying the Tiger Roar Pass, it was even more difficult for the Jin army to obtain some supplies sent from China to the border pass.
In other words, the Jin army lost the support to fight a protracted war.
And the existing materials, for them, there is no way to continue to fight with the Wei army for a long time.
After Zhao Changqing learned of this military report, his response was only four words: 'Pursue with victory'.
Cao Shen thought that the battle would be able to rest for a while, but after receiving the holy decree sent by His Majesty, he knew that he would have to work hard for the whole army again.
His Majesty the Emperor's meaning is very simple, what is the pursuit of victory?
It means that if the Jin State does not surrender one day, this war will not be able to stop for one day.
The soldiers of the Wei army were very bitter and tired, but the soldiers of the Jin army were even more uncomfortable.
Two large-scale battles were fought, which gave Cao Shen great confidence that he would be able to continue the war.
Even though the Jin army has a lot of troops, there is always a limit.
Winning more with less is the strength of the Wei army.
Probably when Cao Shen and others were plotting to launch the third large-scale battle, Jian Yi also came to Lingzhou City.
His arrival made many knights in Lingzhou City notice, no way, the dignified Sword Saint of Wei State, no matter where he went, he was an extremely dazzling existence.
Although many people noticed him, no one wanted to follow him.
Because everyone sensed a terrifying aura from him.
may have angered him a little accidentally, then what awaits him will be a catastrophe.
