Chapter 165 The whole world is in shock, has the time for the righteous army to be destroyed come? (Subscribe)

Hanzhou, inside the Qianqing Palace.

"Prince Zhenbei requests to return to Beijing!"

When the young emperor Liu Wulie heard this series of news, his brows furrowed, his face became extremely ugly, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, he did not show a happy expression on his face as the civil and military officials expected. On the contrary, the gloom between his brows became deeper.

King of Zhenbei,
Liu Jiuren!
He knew his uncle best. He had great ambitions but lacked talent.

Since taking over from Shang Chuqing to guard the northern border, although he has prevented the northern barbarians from breaking through the border and invading Daqian from the south, he has never gained an advantage when facing the northern barbarians.

Not only that, in recent years he has even relied on his status as the emperor's uncle to gather troops at the border and win over the hearts of the people.

The most outrageous thing is that the military expenditures requested from the court have been increasing each time over the years, which is simply an exorbitant amount.

There has never been a major victory on the border in these years, but the military expenditure has been increasing year by year. He said that the reason why they did not gain any advantage was because the equipment was not sophisticated enough. He even suspected that his uncle had secretly embezzled the military funds.

It's just that he had just ascended the throne in these years and his prestige in the court was still shallow, so he had never had a suitable opportunity to take action.

And now at this critical juncture, first the Northern Barbarians withdrew their troops, and then took the initiative to return to the capital to suppress the rebel army. It was hard for him not to suspect the real purpose of his uncle's return to the capital at this moment.

Liu Wulie sat on the dragon throne, tapping his fingers lightly on the armrests, his thoughts racing.

He knew that the ambitions of his uncle Liu Jiuren went far beyond this. He had been looking for opportunities to further expand his power and even to seize his position.

And this time,
This was obviously his best opportunity.

Just thinking of this, he took a deep breath and a look of helplessness flashed across his eyes.

Because even if he knew this, what would he do? What could he do?
Could he refuse to let in his uncle, who commanded a large number of troops, when Daqian was in turmoil and short of manpower?
But if it is granted, what about the safety of the North?

Will those northern barbarians really keep their promise and withdraw their troops from the northern border?

And what will happen after his ambitious uncle returns to Beijing?
Once he really suppressed the rebel army, his power would only become greater, the situation in the court would become more complicated, and his throne would face greater threats.

At this moment, there was only one way before him, even though he was the emperor of Daqian.

Choice,

It has always been the emperor's privilege, and it is usually he as the emperor who gives choices to the people of the world.

But now, he, the emperor, has to face this difficult choice.

All of this made him extremely melancholy.

He turned slowly and looked at the lifelike golden dragon behind him, his eyes flickering. He recalled his ambition to ascend the throne at a young age, his eyes flickering.

Finally, he turned around, looked at the civil and military officials, and even more at the magnificent and kind Daqian outside the palace. He took a deep breath, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, "Pass the order down, I approve the request of the King of Zhenbei."

"Order the King of Zhenbei to return to the capital immediately and assist me in suppressing the rebel army."

Although his voice was calm, the firmness in it was unquestionable!

……

Afterwards, the news that the Northern Barbarians had withdrawn their troops and the King of Zhenbei had returned to the capital spread throughout the world, causing an uproar and much discussion.

"Prince of Zhenbei? Now the emperor's uncle? He is coming too!"

"It seems that the rebels have pushed the imperial court into a corner, and even the King of Zhenbei has been invited to suppress the rebels."

"I heard that the King of Zhenbei returned to the capital this time, bringing back his 400,000 elite troops from the northern border, vowing to suppress the rebels and eliminate all unrest for Daqian!"

"Hiss, the elite troops of the Northern Territory? They are the elite soldiers who have been stationed in the Northern Territory for many years and have fought life-and-death battles with the Northern Barbarians. They are far beyond the reach of ordinary soldiers. The rebel army is in danger now!"

"According to this calculation, the imperial court has already gathered nearly two million soldiers. Even the rebel army probably has little chance of winning!"

"The situation is becoming increasingly confusing. After all, the foundation of the Daqian Kingdom, which has existed for more than 500 years, cannot be compared to the rebels who have seized one or two hilltops..."

……

Such shocking news.
This result was something no one had expected, and it caused everyone to talk about it and be shocked.

No one expected that the usually competitive northern barbarians would actually take the initiative to give in and withdraw their troops this time. This was totally out of the ordinary.

Moreover, the return of the King of Zhenbei with his 400,000 soldiers made the already tilted balance become confusing again. Even in terms of numbers, the court had an absolute advantage.

At this time, some people who were originally frightened by the might of the rebels and were wavering in their hearts began to reconsider their positions. They understood that in this war, it was not important who was king, but whether their interests were harmed.

Obviously, if Daqian can maintain this state, their interests will be the greatest.

……

Jianghua County, Yunfu City.

Yuan Chenghuan had just come down from the city wall at this moment. He looked extremely ugly and gloomy as if water could drip out of him.

At this moment, he did not know the news that King Zhenbei had returned to the capital, and was still immersed in the sadness of the annihilation of Chu Yun and his group.

In his plan, Chu Yun can be said to be an extremely important part of his plan, playing an important role in attacking Lin Zhongyun from the front and back.

But now, Chu Yun is dead, and attacking from both sides has become a fantasy, and his plan has completely failed.

These days, no matter how hard he tried, he could not find any way to defeat Lin Zhongyun.

After all, the rebel army’s current momentum is too alarming.

If war really breaks out, he can only take these 300,000 people with him to die.

But, is it really worth it?
"hateful!"

Thinking of this, he could no longer remain calm, and the gloomy look on his face finally turned into boundless anger at this moment.

Even though he usually did not show his emotions and was always on guard to stay calm, he could not help but let out a low roar.

This roar was very low, more like the impotent rage of a common man.

Impotent rage,
That's right, it's impotent rage.

In recent days, he had felt powerless more than once when it came to Lin Zhongyun, and that deep feeling of powerlessness seemed to be drowning him.

The most difficult thing for him to accept was that he had obviously taken Lin Zhongyun seriously enough and did not underestimate the enemy at all.

After learning that Lin Zhongyun was going to take action against Chu Yun, he immediately sent a pigeon message asking Fei Junzheng to rush to Chu Yun's aid, but even so he was still one step behind.

It seemed as if every move he made was behind Lin Zhongyun's back, which made him feel extremely frustrated, as if all his strategies seemed like a self-righteous clown in front of Lin Zhongyun.

But at this moment, the deputy general beside him came up excitedly holding a secret letter and said, "General, General, good news, the court has sent reinforcements!" "Reinforcements?"

Hearing this, Yuan Chenghuan's eyes became even more fierce, and he was furious. "We are still sending reinforcements at this time? If people are not united, what's the point of sending more reinforcements? It's just a waste of money and manpower!"

Speaking of the so-called reinforcements, Yuan Chenghuan felt even more angry. If those aristocratic families could really be united, the reinforcements would not have arrived until now, and the situation would not have collapsed to this extent.

"General, this time the reinforcements are coming from none other than Zhenbei King Liu Jiuren!"

The deputy general handed the secret report to Yuan Chenghuan with a trembling voice, and said carefully: "It is said that the King of Zhenbei brought 400,000 brave soldiers from the northern border this time. They are all experienced soldiers who have fought against the northern barbarians on the battlefield!"

"King of the North? The Northern Frontier Warriors?"

Hearing this, Yuan Chenghuan calmed down instantly, his brows lowered, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.

He had heard of the title of King of Zhenbei.
However, he was not very interested in the King of Zhenbei, and even sneered at him.

The 400,000 elite soldiers under his command were brave and powerful, but it was the Prince of Zhenbei who was in the lead who held them back, otherwise how could the war in the north have made no progress over the years?

This made him doubt the ability of the King of Zhenbei to command troops, and he was afraid that he was just a mediocre person.

At this time, the deputy general handed over several secret letters and said excitedly: "General, these are letters from several surrounding counties. They have agreed to your request and will join you in encircling and suppressing the rebel army."

"Oh! You are really going to change your attitude according to the situation at this time?"

Looking at the secret letters in his hand, Yuan Chenghuan curled his lips slightly, revealing a hint of sneer, and sneered: "These guys are really good at being fence-sitters. When they heard that the King of Zhenbei was coming, they couldn't wait to show their faces."

He knew very well the purpose of these people.

The reason why these people are so excited now is not because they want to encircle and suppress the rebel army for Daqian, but just want to get a piece of the pie from this war.

Therefore, the people they sent out would only be the old, weak, sick and disabled, and not the elite main force at all.

Once there are more of these people, not only will they not be a help to them, they may even drag down the entire army.

But what else can he say at this time?
When the Prince of Zhenbei arrives, the right to speak in the army will change hands, and whatever he does will be in vain.

……

At the same time, Jialing County.

Everything in Jialing County has been revived. There are vendors walking around on the long street, and smoke from cooking fires is rising. Everything is developing well.

At this moment, Lin Zhongyun has also arrived in Leling City.

One reason for his visit was to inspect the defense of Leling City. After all, Leling City was the throat of the entire Jialing County and no losses were allowed.

On the other hand, it was to supervise the armaments here. With the expansion of the military source, the equipment they had previously seized from Jialing County was no longer sufficient to cover the entire army, so he had asked the blacksmiths in this city to work day and night to rush to make equipment.

At this time, the advantage of Jialing County as an important county in Yangzhou was fully demonstrated. The county was extremely rich in various minerals, so he did not have to worry about the problem of insufficient materials for a while.

Theoretically, as long as he was given enough time, he could make the entire rebel army fully armed and in no way inferior to the imperial guards.

At this time, he had also received news that the Northern Barbarians had withdrawn, which was obviously not good news for the rebel army.

It was obvious that the imperial court had completely regarded him as a thorn in its side.

Having just resolved their front and back attacks, this time they sent the King of Zhenbei, who should not be underestimated.

Thinking of this, he also called out the system video upload interface to upload the video.

He selected five photos, namely, the photo of Chu Yun facing enemies on all sides, the photo of Leling City being revived and the scene of the fully armed rebels training in an orderly manner, the photo of Yunfu City being defended as impregnable, and the photo of blacksmiths in Leling City working spontaneously.

Among these five photos, the one he was most satisfied with was the one that showed the blacksmiths in Leling City spontaneously working overtime day and night to make equipment for the rebel army, because this photo best reflected the image of the rebel army in the minds of the people.

He also believed that if victory in a war was won solely by the bravery of the soldiers, the cost would undoubtedly be huge, which was something he did not want to see.

After selecting five photos, he immediately uploaded the video with the following caption:

"Besieged on all sides, Chu Yun hanged himself. The danger of being attacked from both sides has been resolved. The morale of the righteous army is high. However, the northern barbarians withdrew their troops. The young emperor ordered the King of Zhenbei to bring 400,000 northern troops to suppress them. The situation is critical. What can be done???"

After the input is completed, the video is uploaded directly.

Ever since he uploaded the video of three cities under fire at night, he has become completely popular on Douyin and his traffic has skyrocketed.

Once this video was released, the entire Internet was shocked, and the number of comments exceeded tens of thousands.

"Besieged on all sides, ambushed from ten sides? The host is using this tactic well!"

"As the saying goes, one can defeat ten with one's strength. The best way to deal with a situation like this is to directly break through the encirclement!"

"That's right. Now that we have captured Jialing County, we must make good use of it and arm the rebel army to the teeth."

"Arm, arm. With such armaments, the fighting power of the rebels will be raised to a level that is hard to imagine!"

……

Everyone was talking at once, expressing their own opinions in the comment section.

But without exception, everyone was enthusiastic, as if they had seen the day when they would ascend the throne and dominate the world.

At the same time,

[Shangguan Wolong: With waves of attacks coming one after another, it seems that the imperial court is really getting anxious now! ]

【There are turtles all over the ground, and I have the biggest head: Envy, this is the foundation brought by 500 years of national life. Even if Daqian is in such a mess now, it can still have such a huge military force. 】

[Cat Hair Processing Artist: I'm afraid this winter won't be that good. The reputation of the King of Zhenbei is well-known, and the brave soldiers under his command have all been tempered with the northern barbarians. They are far from comparable to those idiots in Yangzhou.]

[Lin Daiyu angrily kills Maitreya Buddha: It has to be said that the rebel army's foundation is still a bit weak. In terms of military strength, the rebel army is already at a disadvantage, and the situation is not optimistic.

Moreover, during this period of time, although we have crushed the imperial court's plot to encircle and suppress the rebels, this is tantamount to delaying our time. Now, judging by the time, the imperial court's reinforcements from all over the country will probably arrive soon. 】

[Cat Hair Processing Artist: That’s right. According to the degree to which the imperial court is keeping secrets about the rebel army, they must be afraid that things will get worse. I’m afraid that once the Zhenbei King’s army arrives, a war will break out. We don’t have much time left.]

[Lin Daiyu angrily beheads Maitreya Buddha: According to the current disparity in military strength, the best way is to mobilize all the current military forces. Perhaps it will make the imperial court afraid to act for a while.

Or maybe the imperial court would really take action at that time, after all, more troops means more chances of victory. 】

[Shangguan Wolong: That’s right. There’s no need to disperse our forces at this time. Whether we can conquer the world depends entirely on this battle.]

[Cat hair processing artist: I agree, it takes a thousand days to raise an army and only a moment to deploy it, and now is the time.]

But at this moment, Pidan Solo Zhou, who had been lurking, suddenly said:
[Pidan solo porridge: The suggestions you put forward are good, but you have overlooked one point, because we have done enough before, and we still have the initiative in the current situation.

Besides, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Do you really think Liu Jiuren, the uncle of the current emperor, will listen to Yuan Chenghuan? 】.
