The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

In the morning of the next day, because Xiao Rui had already discussed with His Majesty the matter of attacking the Qi State, he directly ordered the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to dispatch troops and generals, and ordered the champion Hou on the front line to attack across the board!

The civil and military officials were not surprised, but felt a sense of relaxation that had finally begun. The soldiers and horses have been recuperating for so long, and it is time to attack.

In this way, the imperial envoy led Hufu to Fengtian City, and the household department's grain, grass and supplies also began to be mobilized.

In this attack, Champion Hou was still the main general, Li Cunxiao and Yang Youji were the left and right Generals Huwei, and the troops were divided into three steps to attack the imperial capital of Qi. They will not stop until the imperial capital is destroyed!

When the champion of Fengtian City saw the imperial envoy, after checking the tiger talisman, he immediately called the scouts and summoned all the legions with a military order!

In this way, armies from all over the world started to move and assembled as quickly as possible!

Finally able to fight Qi, hold back for a long time! All the soldiers were gearing up, thanking the state of Qi for their military exploits.

The news of the Xia army's assembly was rushed to the imperial capital of the Qi state by the spies of the Qi state. After the Qi emperor learned about it, he leaned on the dragon chair and was speechless for a long time.

Immediately after that, important ministers were summoned to discuss, Zhonghai Yuntian served under the door, Wei Nanzheng was ordered by Zhongshu, Guo Yu was ordered by Shangshu, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Shangshu of the Ministry of Households and others.

After everyone entered the palace, as soon as Emperor Qi announced the news that the Xia army had gathered an army, there was complete silence in the Golden Palace.

After worrying for so long, Xia Jun finally made a move!

The Xia army two years ago was ferocious and unstoppable, and hit Fengtian City. Now Daxia has enough rest and recuperation, and the soldiers are even more eager to try. On the other hand, the Qi army is no longer the Qi army two years ago!

"How many sons do I have left to fight against Xia Jun?" Qi Huang looked at the important ministers and said nothing, so he spoke first.

Shangshu ordered Guo Yu to say: "Your Majesty, the 400,000 troops are resisting the Yuan army in the north, and the 150,000 troops are encircling and suppressing the uprising rebels. You can only use other soldiers and horses. If you add the army guarding the city outside the imperial capital, you can barely mobilize 400,000 troops."

"There are only 400,000 sons, how can we defeat Xia's 700,000 soldiers?" Qi Huang muttered to himself.

Shang Shuling Guo Yu glanced at Shang Shu of the Ministry of War and saw that he was wiping off a cold sweat, so he gritted his teeth and didn't say much.

Unexpectedly, the left minister Hai Yuntian asked directly: "Master Guo, the army guarding the city outside the imperial capital weighs 100,000 people. If you subtract this 100,000 troops, you can mobilize 300,000 troops. The 300,000 troops you mentioned Wan is the theoretical force, or the real force?"

Guo Yu was speechless for a moment, and then said: "It's the number of soldiers receiving military pay!"

When Emperor Xia heard this, he almost had high blood pressure.

There are 300,000 soldiers receiving military pay, but there may not be so many people, and the situation of empty pay is too obvious. In his previous life, Ming Dynasty was known as an army of millions, but in the end he really fought and found a lot of moths who were eating nothing!

Qi's domestic and foreign troubles are more likely to cause corruption, and it is common to be empty-paid. So Guo Yu said that it would be good to be able to gather 400,000 troops, and finally 300,000 combatable troops.

"The humble minister deserves to die." The Minister of the Ministry of War was already so frightened that he knelt down.

Shang Shu Ling Guo Yu also bowed down.

Emperor Qi really wanted to push out the Minister of War and the Yushi of Yushitai to kill them, but now was not the time to kill generals, he looked at Hai Yuntian and asked, "Master Hai, do you have a good strategy?"

Hai Yuntian is the left chancellor, leading the servants, and the elders of the two dynasties. Facing the hopeful eyes of Emperor Qi, Hai Yuntian, as an important minister to protect the country, should set an example and propose a solution, but he said simply: " Even the humble minister has no good plan!"

The Zhongshu Ling Wei Nanzheng shouted immediately: "Master Hai, look at your tone, you seem to be confident without a good plan! Is this the attitude that a courtier should have?"

Hai Yuntian glanced at him, and asked: "Judging from Mr. Wei's tone, it seems that he has a plan in his chest, and he must have a good plan. Why don't you tell me and listen!"

Qi Huang's eyes immediately set on Wei Nanzheng, and hurriedly asked: "Wei Aiqing, tell me quickly!"

Wei Nanzheng said: "Your Majesty, I suggest that some of the soldiers and horses resisting the Yuan army in the north should be transferred back. The northern area is already empty, and the people are fleeing south. In addition, the Yuan army's whereabouts are strange and moving fast. It is difficult to encircle and suppress, so there is really no need to send 400,000 troops there. Secondly, the imperial court can issue a recruiting order to recruit those soldiers and horses who rebel. They have to be rewarded with enough benefits."

Qi Huang hesitated and said: "It's no problem to transfer some of the northern soldiers and horses back, but to recruit rebels... Will this group of rebels agree to recruit security?"

Now there are many heroes in the state of Qi, and there are five rebel leaders in the top row, occupying a state one after another, buying refugees to resist the imperial court of the state of Qi. They have more than 200,000 people in total. If all recruits are recruited, it will indeed be a big force. If you gather here and there, you should be able to gather 700,000 troops.

Wei Nanzheng smiled and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I know these rebel leaders well, and they will definitely be willing to recruit them!"

Qi Huang looked at Hai Yuntian and asked, "Master Zuo, what do you think?"

Hai Yuntian smiled sarcastically, and said: "I feel that Master Wei's idea is really whimsical. To deploy the northern army is to let the Yuan army continue to go south to plunder. To recruit rebels is to lure wolves into the house. What's more, most of the rebels are refugees. Even the Qi army Don’t dare to fight head-on, you can only use sneak attacks and use the terrain to fight. Do you think it’s possible for these untrained refugees to fight Xia’s army? When the time comes, the army will be defeated like a mountain, and it will greatly affect the morale of the army.”

Wei Nanzheng blushed from the sarcasm, and said angrily: "Master Hai, you can't do this, and you can't do that. Could it be that in the face of Xia's invasion, you just sit and wait to die. What's your intention?"

"This official is completely sincere, this is a matter of fact." Hai Yuntian shouted.

"Okay, stop arguing!" Qi Huang slapped the table angrily, then roared.

All the ministers silenced one after another.

Qi Huang sighed, the status quo of Qi State had exhausted him mentally and mentally, at this moment he understood the difficulty of being an emperor, and the country cannot be made strong by relying on dreams.

Looking at the important ministers in the palace, Emperor Qi understood that this situation can only be counted on himself, because even if Da Qi is destroyed, these important ministers will live in peace. Didn’t Zhao Guo’s collapse explain everything?

That being the case...

"Guo Shangshu, follow Wei Aiqing's will and immediately mobilize 200,000 troops from the north. In addition, Wei Aiqing personally drafts the edict to recruit security! Fight Xia with all your strength!" Qi Huang solemnly said.

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.

Afterwards, Wei Nanzheng asked again: "Your Majesty, who will the general leading the army send this time?"

"Is there anyone for Wei Aiqing?" Qi Huang asked.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Wei Nanzheng's mouth, and he said randomly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, this time against the Xia army, I suggest appointing a highly respected old minister, which can improve the morale and morale of the soldiers! Therefore, I recommend Prince He!"

As soon as these words came out, Hai Yuntian said angrily: "Wei Nanzheng, stop talking nonsense!"

Wei Nanzheng sneered and said, "Master Hai, is there a mistake in my recommendation? Prince He is the Prince of Qi. When the country is in peril, shouldn't he step forward?"

Hai Yuntian looked at Emperor Qi and said: "Your Majesty, you must not let Prince He be in charge of this military incident!"

Qi Huang frowned, how could he forget his uncle Prince He. He was once the Generalissimo of the Great Qi. Although he has not led troops for decades, his prestige is still there. What's more, he is also Emperor Xia's father-in-law and the grandfather of Prince Xia, so it's interesting to think about letting their relatives kill each other.

Of course, in order to prevent Prince He from rebelling, his descendants and grandchildren had to stay in the imperial capital as hostages!

"Master Hai, don't panic, I will seriously consider it." Qi Huang said with a smile.

Hai Yuntian sighed, seeing His Majesty's tone, he knew that His Majesty had already made a decision.

It is because I and Prince He are good friends that I clearly understand Prince He's character and some of his secrets! Not allowing Prince He to preside over military affairs is not for Prince He's safety, but for Daqi! Once Prince He is allowed to lead the troops, Da Qi will be destroyed even faster!

"Why…"

Hai Yuntian sighed in his heart, feeling sad in his heart.

Now Daqi, no one has the ability to turn the tide!

 …

What is the fastest?

It's not Cao Cao, it's bad news.

Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles. While Qi Huang was discussing how to resist Xia Jun, the news that Xia Jun was going to attack Qi had spread throughout the imperial capital.

Prince He, Ye Wendao and Ye Qianying naturally also heard the news. They were very concerned about the situation in Xia Kingdom, and knew that Emperor Xia and the crown prince were promoting new crops.

"Qi Huang doesn't have any troops to resist this time." Ye Qianying asked.

Prince He and Ye Wendao laughed immediately, and Ye Wendao said: "Wei Nanzheng will definitely give His Majesty bad advice. At the very least, he will suggest that His Majesty bring back the northern troops. This person has already taken refuge in the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom, and the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom must also give him He promised. From the very beginning, he said that Qi State and Yuan State would cooperate, let the Yuan army borrow the way, and then repeatedly obstructed the military affairs in the north. He has hidden it deeply enough. If we hadn’t found out the clues, he would never have believed it.”

Prince He stroked his beard with a smile and said: "Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Qi to fall into such a miserable state. Since he took office as Emperor Qi, he has planted the root of disaster, and he deserves to be reused!"

"Father, I have a hunch that Wei Nanzheng will target us this time," Ye Wendao said.

Prince He hummed: "It's okay, just wait and see what happens. By the way, where is Suzhen?"

"Entered the palace." Ye Qianying replied.

Prince He said: "When she comes back, let her stop running around. This period of time is more critical, so be careful."

"Father, don't worry, my daughter understands." Ye Qianying smiled.

At this time, Bai Su was really in the harem, chatting with Concubine Hui and Empress Yuan Yuan.

The two had no intersection at first, but after Concubine Hui was captured by Xiao Rui and came back, they had an intersection with Bai Suzhen.

Bai Suzhen is the goddaughter of Prince He, it is not difficult to enter the harem.

At the same time, since Bai Suzhen got acquainted with Concubine Hui, she knew what she was thinking, and it turned out that she was thinking about someone.

That guy not only took people away, but also took away his heart. Now that the person has returned, the heart has forgotten to return.

Pity the infatuated people in the world, who will mislead all living beings.
