The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Han Xin led troops to garrison in the western Tibet county, so it only took one day to get to the county. Chen Qingzhi was in Jiangquanzhou, and the journey was relatively long, so he had to be a few days later.

Although Zhang Liang did not clearly state the reason for urgently summoning him to face the Holy Spirit in the eagle letter, he had already sensed His Majesty's intentions, so he was very excited. His eyes have long been locked on the west, and he wants to cross the river to meet the soldiers of Qin State.

Now it's finally time to wait.

The next day, Han Xin rushed to the county town and went to Duhufu to meet Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui asked him to stand up and looked him over carefully. It's been three or four years since the two separated, and he who was once a servant has completely transformed into a commander, full of the demeanor of a general.

Among all the characters that Xiao Rui came to, Han Xin had the worst background, after all, he was a servant of Princess Yan's mansion, but he was also the one who was most grateful to Xiao Rui, without Xiao Rui's appreciation for him, he would not have achieved what he is today .

"The humble Han Xin greets His Majesty, long live my emperor!" Han Xin bowed on his knees, which shows his excitement after seeing Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui helped him up himself, and said with a smile: "There is no need for a gift, get up quickly. I haven't seen him for a few years, and he has indeed become a commander. It seems that he has honed himself well on the battlefield, and he has not disappointed me."

Han Xin stood up, and replied: "His majesty has valued me as much as I can today. I have reported to His Majesty that I am willing to shroud Daxia's horse leather!"

"You don't need to shroud your body in horse leather. You just need to lead the army well and open up the territory for me. I don't want someone to conquer the world for me, but no one will accompany me to witness. The last time Zifang returned to Beijing to report on his work, he said that you are studying the battlefield Fa, what time is it now?" Xiao Rui asked curiously.

Han Xin was a little embarrassed, and said embarrassedly: "I have already studied the formation of five tigers and sheep, and it is all on paper. Usually, suppressing rebels is a small matter, so there is no need to let it go. Let Your Majesty laugh!"

"Who says you can't use it, it's time to show your talent!" Xiao Rui laughed.

Han Xin excitedly said, "Your Majesty wants to attack Qin?"

Xiao Rui nodded, and said: "It's not a large-scale national war. The current Great Xia should focus on savings. But now the opportunity is rare, so I am going to send you and Qing's soldiers to split into two groups, and divide the sixteen counties of Zhao into two groups. I heard that Meng Yi is a famous general of the Qin State, who has won countless battles and is proficient in formations. Do you have the confidence to defeat him and drive them to the west of the Qinling Mountains?"

Han Xin said arrogantly: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the humble job will definitely complete the task!"

"Good!" Xiao Rui naturally believed in Han Xin's ability.

Three days later, Xiao He, Shen Wansan, Dian Wei, Chen Qingzhi, Wu Zhanfa and others rushed back to the county seat.

Zhang Liang hosted a banquet, and this was Xiao Rui's first meal with them since he took the throne. It's a pity that his status has changed. He used to be a prince, and he was able to get closer. Now he is an emperor, and everyone is in awe.

Except Dian Wei.

"Your Majesty, I heard that someone broke into the palace to assassinate you? Who is it? Go down and kill him!" Dian Wei yelled.

Gai Nie, who was drinking at the side, choked and coughed a few times, feeling a little embarrassed.

Along the way, accompanying Xiao Rui to Yingzhou, Anbei Zhuzhou, and then here, he has a lot of feelings, one of which is that there are too many masters around Xiao Rui.

Li Yuanfang and Qinglian Swordsman stepped into super-grade, Wang Dazhi was half-step super-grade, I heard that Li Cunxiao and Yang Youji were also super-grade, now add this big man.

Nima...

Gai Zinie couldn't help but sigh.

In the past, a super master in the mainland of China could not exceed the number of hands, but now there are five people gathered around Emperor Daxia. Could it be that Xiao Rui has a panacea?

Yes, there must be!

He had seen Xiao Rui taking a kind of elixir, so his cultivation was able to improve steadily.

I'm so envious, but it's a pity that I don't have the cheek to ask for it.

Xiao Rui glanced at the embarrassed Gai Nie, and then said to Dian Wei: "It was a misunderstanding last time. I heard that Zhang Liang and Xiao He were assassinated several times, and you risked your life to save them. Good job!"

Dian Wei scratched his head and said with a chuckle: "Your Majesty has told you to do it, and you have to do it well. By the way, Your Majesty, I heard that the Qin army is going to be attacked, and I want to participate. I beg Your Majesty to agree!"

"Okay! I'll let you fight the enemy! Han Xin, Chen Qingzhi!" Xiao Rui took advantage of the banquet and immediately gave orders.

"The humble job is here!" Han Xin and Chen Qingzhi immediately came out to listen to the order.

Xiao Rui ordered: "Han Xin, I ordered you to be General Yunhui, and to mobilize soldiers and horses from the guards of West Tibet County and Lingshan County to form an army of 100,000 troops and march across the river to the west. Your task is very simple, go north to encircle and suppress Mengyi. The Mongolian tribe Guo Jia is there as an internal response, and he will persuade Temujin to cooperate with us to encircle and suppress Mengyi together."

"The low-ranking leader!" Han Xin responded.

Xiao Rui looked at Chen Qingzhi again, and said, "Chen Qingzhi, I ordered you to be General Guide, and dispatch soldiers and horses from Jiangquan Prefecture, Jiangzhong Prefecture, and Yuanzhou's internal guards to form an army of 100,000 troops and march across the river to the west. Your mission is different from Han Xin's. , your goal is the southern counties of the sixteen counties in Dongqi, starting from the south, and sweeping away the Qin army one by one. I want to include all sixteen counties in the Daxia territory!"

"The decree from the lowly position!" Chen Qingzhi also said excitedly.

Xiao Rui looked at Zhang Liang and Xiao He again, and asked, "Before gathering troops, is there a way to make the old Zhao people in the sixteen counties revolt?"

Zhang Liang nodded and said: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I have a good plan, just spread rumors that Emperor Ying ascended the throne, and plans to impose additional taxes and corvees on the original Zhao people in the sixteen counties, and at the same time rumors that people who did not marry Qin people People of Zhao are not allowed to be officials in the court for five generations!"

At this time, Jia Xu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of my humble minister, you can send someone to burn the imperial tombs of Zhao's royal family, dig up the tombs, and pretend to be Qin people."

If Zhang Liang's strategy is to intensify Zhao people's resistance, then Jia Xu's poisonous strategy is to provoke Zhao people's anger. Now in the sixteen counties, all the brothers of the former Emperor Zhao are trying to restore the country. Now that their ancestral graves have been dug up, if they can bear it, they will feel sorry for the underground ancestors.

"Okay, let's do it according to your two ideas, Zifang, and leave this matter to you." Xiao Rui smiled.

"The humble minister leads the decree." Zhang Liang answered with cupped hands.

After the banquet, Han Xin and Chen Qingzhi retreated holding the tiger talisman, and immediately left the county in the dark. They were going to dispatch troops and prepare food and grass. The faster they prepared, the sooner they could attack Qin.

At the same time, Wei Guang took Xiao Rui's letter and rushed to Qijiang County to inform Gan Ning to prepare him to cross the river. Yingxin also flew back to Kyoto with Xiao Rui's order, and informed the cabinet and the Ministry of War of his arrangement.

The Anxi prefectures, which had been quiet for more than two years, became active again. Han Xin and Chen Qingzhi quickly mobilized soldiers from the guard station to assemble. Within 12 days, 200,000 troops were assembled, food and grass were ready, and they set off immediately.

Han Xin went first. He set off from West Tibet County, but he didn't choose to go directly to the west. Instead, he played a sloppy eye, let 20,000 soldiers and horses create momentum and then quickly went north, so as to attract the scouts of Qin State. After the soldiers and horses going north left, he first led 20,000 soldiers and horses to the west in a low-key manner, and rushed to the east bank of the Qijiang River in a hurry.

The result of this is that although the Qin side noticed the movement of Han Xin's soldiers and horses, they thought that Han Xin was going north. Before they could react, Han Xin had already rushed to Qijiang with his soldiers.

Ever since Gan Ning uprooted Qin's Qijiang battalion, the Qin army did not form a new water battalion, but sent troops to defend on the shore. Originally, Meng Yi sent troops to garrison. Later, when Meng Yi went north, he left troops on the other side of Daxia's three water barracks for defense to prevent Daxia from crossing the river and invading.

Among them, 80,000 soldiers and horses were stationed opposite the Jinfan Battalion, just beside the Qi River.

If you cross the river during the day, you will be easily discovered by the Qin army. Although Daxia's warships are strong, if you force them to go ashore, you will lose your troops. Neither Han Xin nor Gan Ning wanted to suffer losses before they won the first battle.

So I chose night crossing.

So they first sent out elite soldiers to kill the scouts of the Qin army on the west bank, and then on the eve of the early morning, when the sky was still dark, all the warships were dispatched at the same time to transport Han Xin's most elite 20,000 advance troops.

Han Xin, who went ashore, led 20,000 soldiers and horses. With the cooperation of the Jinfan Battalion, he took the lead in launching a surprise attack on the camp of the Qin Army stationed there.

He was dumbfounded, and shouted: "Han Xin? Didn't he go north? It's only been a few days, how could he come from West Tibet County!"

Han Xin took advantage of the speed of his soldiers, and only brought rations and weapons, just to beat them. Moreover, the bow of Daxia was strong and the arrows were fast, and with the help of gunpowder, the defeat of the Qin army was inevitable, so in desperation, the Qin army had no choice but to retreat. .

After chasing for more than 20 miles, Han Xin stopped pursuing, then returned to the shore, directly occupied the magpie's nest, occupied the tents and food left by the Qin army's escape, and then set up a defensive formation.

After taking the West Bank, the follow-up army can go ashore safely, avoiding being stuck in the throat by the Qin army. Next, Gan Ning will also build a camp on the west bank, so that there is nothing wrong with it.

After waiting for a few more days, the army arrived one after another.

When all the 200,000 troops crossed the river, the real battle began. Han Xin and Chen Qingzhi divided into two groups, one going south and the other going north.

As early as when Han Xin and Chen Qingzhi were reorganizing their troops, Zhang Liang sent people to spread rumors in the counties of Dongqi, which caused panic among the people of Zhao Guojiu, and spread the news that the ancestral graves of Zhao Guo's royal family were dug. People started fighting again.

When Han Xin and Chen Qingzhi crossed the river, there were rebellions to varying degrees in the six counties in the south of the Dongqi area. Coupled with the news that the Great Xia soldiers and horses crossed the river to attack, the people in the sixteen counties were panicked.

The news was also sent back to the capital of Qin.

Emperor Ying was furious, unexpectedly, Xia Guo would also come to take advantage of the fire to loot. Because King Xiang and King Zhuang hadn't suppressed it yet, it was impossible for Emperor Ying to transfer Bai Meng and Meng Tian away, so he appointed Meng Yi as the general of Anguo, who was in charge of the military affairs of the sixteen counties of Dongqi, and the soldiers and horses of the sixteen counties were at his disposal. Xia Jun must be driven back.

It's a pity that Meng Yi's situation is not very optimistic at this time.

As Xiao Rui said, Guo Jia naturally persuaded Temujin and reached a tacit cooperation plan with Daxia. Temujin rashly went south with 150,000 cavalry. Even if there are 700,000 troops stationed in the sixteen counties, he still feels deeply troublesome about the Daxia soldiers who have been killed.
