Please call me Your Majesty!

Chapter 156 It’s not that Chenka’s strength is too low, it’s that the game’s strength is too strong!

However, Chu Shizhao soon found that he was too happy too early.

The emergence of the musket was indeed an evolution of military strength, but in reality it was still impossible to actually engage in combat and demonstrate effective combat power.

Development is a long-term process.

Chu Shizhao was forcing development in a certain direction, which resulted in the fact that although the musket was born ahead of schedule, the mass production results were not satisfactory.

The most important thing is that before firearms reached their peak, there was still no way to fight against cavalry.

Range is a big issue.

In other words, the musket that Chu Shizhao took out now was only suitable for efficiently suppressing bandits and fighting against the infantry of the rebel army who could only fight at close range.

When facing cavalry, the musket is still at a disadvantage, and active attacks are difficult to be effective.

However, the development of gunpowder has brought Chu Shizhao extremely strong defensive power. If he fights in the city, the thunder bomb is enough to dissuade any cavalry units and siege troops that actively attack.

It can be said that Chu Shizhao on the defending side has already established himself in a truly invincible position.

The shortcoming is that Chu Shizhao does not want to be satisfied with just dividing the south by the river.

[In October of the fourth year of Shengwu, Chu Shizhao began to implement horse policy in the south, actively encouraging rural people to raise horses.]

[In November of the fourth year of Shengwu, the Xiongnu royal court, which had been defeated by the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, requested an alliance with the Great Zhou Dynasty to jointly resist the Mongol Yuan Dynasty.]

It is true that Chu Shizhao was short of thugs and cavalry who could confront the Mongols head-on, but it was impossible for Chu Shizhao to accept the conditions of an alliance with the Huns.

This is just like why the Southern Song Dynasty was unable to form an alliance with the Jin Dynasty.

Many people analyzed from a macro perspective and believed that the rise of the Mongols had already taken shape at that time, and that the Southern Song Dynasty should put aside past grudges with the Jin Dynasty and work together to fight against the more powerful Mongols in order to have the possibility of continuing the dynasty.

In fact, it is impossible.

Would you ally with an enemy who steps on your head?

It's the same reason why Liu Bei would never form an alliance with the Eastern Wu that killed his second brother Guan Yu.

The Jin Kingdom was far more hateful than the Eastern Wu.

Let’s not talk about the Jingkang Shame for now. After the Jin people were unable to resist the Mongolian attack, they began to tear down the east wall to repair the west wall.

Simply put, the Mongols fought against the Jin people, and the Jin people suffered heavy losses. Where did they get compensation? They got compensation from the Southern Song Dynasty!

If I can't defeat the Mongols, can't I deal with you people from the Southern Song Dynasty?

So the Mongols kept fighting the Jin people, and the Jin people kept fighting the Southern Song Dynasty to restore their country's economic strength. However, the Jin people survived in this way, but in the end they could not survive any longer. No matter how hard they fought, they could not defeat the Mongols, so they had to swallow their pride and ask for an alliance with the Southern Song Dynasty.

You call this sincerity?

Not to mention that we are enemies for generations, we know that we have a common enemy, but instead of fighting the common enemy first, we fight me to replenish the country's strength.

The emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty was mean, cowardly and cowardly, but on this matter, he did not form an alliance with the Jin Dynasty. Instead, he joined forces with Mongolia to kill his archenemy first.

Therefore, the problem facing Chu Shizhao is obvious.

The Huns sought cooperation with Chu Shizhao. Was he sincere in cooperating?
not necessarily.

He simply couldn't defeat the Mongols, and faced with the double losses of economy and territory, he had to seek Chu Shizhao to suck his blood.

Moreover, it is impossible for Chu Shizhao to keep an ungrateful person.

Chu Shizhao also saw what kind of people the Huns were doing in the north. If he joined forces with the Huns, the people would lose their support.

[In December of the fourth year of Shengwu, Chu Shizhao rejected the alliance with the Xiongnu, adjusted his strategy, and sent troops to Sichuan.]

[In January of the fifth year of Shengwu, the people of Sichuan and Shu missed Zhou Dynasty very much. The Dajing Dynasty had inherited the etiquette and culture of the Dazhou Dynasty, and many people were unwilling to refuse to be enslaved by foreign races.]

[In February of the fifth year of Shengwu, a mutiny led by aristocratic families and powerful people broke out in Chengdu. After expelling the barbarians in Sichuan and Shu, the local aristocratic families surrendered to Chu Shizhao's army and expressed their willingness to be loyal to Dajing.]

[In March of the fifth year of Shengwu, Huan Jie, who had been missing for many years, went to Chu Shizhao in the south.]

[In April, Chu Shizhao appointed Huan Jie as the general of Liangzhou and sent him to Liangzhou to gather his old subordinates to accumulate strength for another expedition against the Mongols.]

[In May of the fifth year of Shengwu, the Mongol Yuan Dynasty tried a conciliatory policy in order to melt the resistance of the northerners, thereby reducing rebellion and gaining the hearts of the local people.]

[The Yuan Taizu, the monarch of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, wore the traditional clothing of the Zhou people and took the initiative to win over the great clans in the north.]

[In June of the fifth year of Shengwu, after the policy change of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, the resistance of many aristocratic families decreased, especially after the Mongol Yuan Dynasty gave the power of taxation to these aristocratic families, those aristocratic families who suddenly gained power sensed an opportunity to take advantage of.]

[In July of the fifth year of Shengwu, Wang Shouyi was defeated again by the famous general Tuolei of the Yuan Dynasty. This time, Wang Shouyi had no choice but to abandon the strategic area and cross the river again.]

Chu Shizhao knew that there was no general who always won in this world, but Chu Shizhao didn't know why the ability value of Wang Shouyi, a general who always lost, was so high.

Chu Shizhao currently maintains a 70% winning rate when fighting against Wang Shouyi, and a 30% losing rate. This is because Chu Shizhao was initially in a completely disadvantaged position when he had no power, and he was unable to defeat Wang Shouyi.

However, Chu Shizhao had almost never lost in a serious fight, and there were many classic cases of him defeating the larger force with the smaller one.

The current situation is chaotic, and Chu Shizhao must stay in Yingtian Prefecture to strengthen the economic development of the south and replenish all the necessary logistics supplies for the front line.

However, Wang Shouyi, who holds a gold card, still has more defeats than wins.

I looked at Wang Shouyi’s numbers.

Chu Shizhao found that this person's abilities were too balanced. He was a gold card because his overall values ​​met the requirements, not because he had a specialty in one area.

Like the military officer card, if the military officer’s military power exceeds 80 points, he can become the corresponding golden officer card.

Similarly, if the command ability exceeds 80 points, it can also become a golden general card.

But one is a golden warrior, and the other is a golden commander.

It can be said that everyone has his own duties.

Wang Shouyi is different. His military strength is 75 points, command is 75 points, internal affairs is 75 points, intelligence is 75 points, charm is 75 points, ambition is 75 points, and morality is 50 points.

The positioning of this minister card is very special.

In other words, he can do everything and play any position. He may not be the best, but he will definitely not make big mistakes.

If you put him in an era where the average ability of the people is very poor, he may become a pseudo-hexagonal god of war. He is too balanced and can do anything.

But in an era when everyone is very capable, Wang Shouyi feels like he is powerless.

If Chu Shizhao were to choose someone, he felt that Wang Shouyi was a bit similar to Zhang He. If he was placed in the early period of the late Han Dynasty when there were many famous generals, he would be like an ordinary person. If he was placed in the later period of the Three Kingdoms period when many famous generals were dying out, Zhang He would be a bit like the hexagon.

Those who are stronger than him in military force cannot lead troops as well as he can; those who are better at leading troops than him cannot train troops as well as he can; those who are better at training troops than him cannot defend the city as well as he can; those who are better at defending the city than him cannot farm as well as he can.

But the problem now is that the generals from the Mongol Yuan Dynasty have crushed Wang Shouyi based on their numerical panels.

The per capita military strength exceeds 84 points.

It wouldn't be enough if they had more force in a single round, but their command abilities were also not low. They were all people who knew how to use tactics, make detours, and fight.

The actual feeling that this simulation gave Chu Shizhao was like a confrontation with the Mongols who were about to reach their peak.

Because in the past, there would be constant appearance of rebel troops in the rear, and these people were able to support Chu Shizhao. If it were anyone else, they would have been forced into a desperate situation by being trapped from both sides.

But even with such a fierce attack, with Yang Zhuting, Li Jin's former subordinates, including the rebellion of Lu En's descendants in Fan Yang, these people continued to make things difficult for the Mongol court. Chu Shizhao also sent troops to confront the enemy head-on, but still could not drive the Mongols out of the north.

Once the nomadic people take root and transform into an agricultural civilization, they will be very difficult to deal with.

Like the place where Goguryeo was located.

It had already posed a great threat during the Three Kingdoms period. Cao Cao had fought against it, and after that the Northern Wei had been fought against, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, had also fought against it. After that, Yang Guang continued to fight.

None of them achieved any results because Goguryeo had become a new agricultural civilization and had begun to form alliances with Silla, Baekje and even Japan. Its ambition was self-evident: it wanted to rule the Central Plains.

Any leader with a little bit of common sense knows that if a place like this is left unattended, it will become empty inside and sooner or later be taken advantage of by these people.

So Li Shimin also fought, and by the time of Li Zhi, Goguryeo was finally destroyed.

Once the Mongol Yuan Dynasty completely established its roots in the north and won over the old landlord class and powerful families of the Zhou people, Chu Shizhao would be in a situation from which he would be unable to escape.

Moreover, the Mongol Yuan Dynasty here would not necessarily perish in just sixty years like the Yuan Dynasty in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.

Because of the issue of being prepared for danger in times of peace, a country that is too comfortable can easily indulge in pleasure and accelerate its demise. In the late Yuan Dynasty, it was even a question whether the Mongolian nobles could take up arms.

But it’s different here. With the high-pressure counterattack mode proposed by Chu Shizhao, do you think the Mongol Yuan court here will slack off?

Now it is really the Monster House of East Asia, and Chu Shizhao is forcing the Mongol Yuan Dynasty court to follow him.

You see, when the barbarians first entered the country, did they consider integrating into the local Central Plains culture in order to resolve their resistance?
Being able to achieve this step is a kind of progress in thinking.

He is also a tough opponent.

This belongs to the peak game. Wang Shouyi is the kind of master who accidentally entered the peak game. He has no problem playing in normal situations and sometimes he can even have a burst of energy.

Fighting against people who were all stronger than him, he became confused, and the more he fought, the less confident he became. Originally, Chu Shizhao sent Wang Shouyi to cross the river and join forces with the rebels in the north, those Zhou people who wanted to recover their homeland, in order to continuously curb the development of the Yuan Dynasty. After suffering two major defeats, the morale of Wang Shouyi's troops plummeted, and he even gave up his strategy and had to lead his troops across the river to retreat. This shows that he was really afraid of losing because of too many defeats.

At that time, Chu Shizhao sent him there because he felt that Wang Shouyi's various indicators were relatively stable and there would be no major changes. Even if he could not defeat him, the strategic goal could be maintained.

Now, Chu Shizhao can only use more extreme methods.

To be honest, Chu Shizhao really didn't want to use Lan Shu.

Lan Zi is fierce in battle, ruthless in attack, and willing to take the blame for Chu Shizhao, but this man is just like Wei Yan, with crazy and insane ways of thinking, and he doesn't play by the rules.

You give him the opportunity to carry out the Ziwu Valley strategy and give him full responsibility for it, and he dares to go all in on such a small path.

Wei Yan wanted at most 3,000 elite soldiers to give it a try, but this man dared to go to 30,000 to take a high-risk attempt.

If you use Lan Shu, you either have to believe in him to the end or don't use him at the beginning.

So if you use Lan Shu, you have to take the risk of losing a general.

Dou Li left, Yang Fang left, and then Li Jin left. The generals who had fought side by side in the simulation all left in different ways in this simulation. This made Chu Shizhao cherish the use of every general card.

Even though Lan Shu was not Chu Shizhao's direct descendant this time, Chu Shizhao still gave him a very high status.

[In August of the fifth year of Shengwu, Lan Shu led the 40,000 new troops recruited by Chu Shizhao to join the war, exercising the authority of the Northern Expedition Governor-General as the General of Zhenbei.]

【At this point, people from all walks of life were dissatisfied. 】

【Wang Shouyi was a general in the early uprising. The main military force of the Dajing Dynasty was mostly composed of the Beggars Army. It is true that Wang Shouyi suffered a series of defeats, but as a general of the uprising army, he could fail but not lose power.】

【Wang Shouyi's loss of power made all the soldiers of the Qihuo Army feel uneasy.】

[Most of your team members started out as rebels. Most of these people value loyalty and loyalty, and care more about personal relationships. Therefore, many people do not want to see Wang Shouyi lose power.]

[Of course, this is only part of the reason. Most people are still dissatisfied with Lan Shu, a general who once served the Great Zhou Dynasty, holding such power.]

[In September of the fifth year of Shengwu, you dispatched Wang Shouyi back to Yingtian Prefecture and appointed him as Shao Bao to stabilize the army's morale. In order to strengthen the rebels' sense of identity with you, you finally married Jiang Youzhen, the daughter of Jiang Xing, the leader of the White Sleeve Army, who was once a fellow rebel, and made her your queen.]

[In October of the fifth year of Shengwu, Huan Jie returned to Liangzhou and summoned his old subordinates. As a result, he came into conflict with the Duan family in Liangzhou. After Huan's defeat, the Duan family became the most powerful family in Liangzhou and was unrivaled.]

[After Duan Qi's death, Duan Jiong took up the banner of resistance against the Yuan Dynasty, but unfortunately died in battle. The return of Huan Jie to seize power was something the Duan clan did not want to see.]

[The Mongol Yuan Dynasty saw an opportunity and tried to win over the descendants of the Duan family, telling them that as long as they were willing to help the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, the Duan family could inherit the post of governor of Liangzhou, and they only needed to help them collect taxes.]

[Under the pressure of Huan Jie's return to Liangzhou, the Duan family was worried about Huan's liquidation of them, and they also thought that they would not get any benefits if they continued to serve the Dajing Dynasty. After repeated defeats on the front line, they lost confidence in the Dajing Dynasty. The Mongol Yuan Dynasty just left a way out, leaving them no choice.]

[In November of the fifth year of Shengwu, Duan Chang, the eldest son of Duan Jiong, took over the post of governor of Liangzhou and accepted the transfer order of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty court. Thus, Liangzhou was incorporated into the control of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty court. Huan Jie, who had just returned to Liangzhou to gather his old troops, was driven out of Liangzhou by Duan Chang's troops.]

Every time Chu Shizhao made a move, the Mongol Yuan court would counter it; every time he made a plan, his path would be blocked.

Before Chu Shizhao could think of his next strategy, new content appeared on the screen.

[Congratulations to the Mongol Yuan Dynasty for triggering a new golden opportunity - the Whip of God. ]

This golden opportunity immediately attracted Chu Shizhao's attention.

[After several years of ups and downs, the Mongols finally pacified the chaotic situation on the grasslands. With the unification of the grasslands, the entry into the north of the Central Plains, and the increasingly developed handicraft industry, the Mongol Yuan Dynasty met the conditions for activating the Whip of God. ]

[In the next three years, the Mongol Empire will produce a golden-level monarch to lead the entire Mongol nation.]

[Congratulations to the Mongolian people for activating a new national term - zeal for war. ]

It is indeed the pinnacle competition!
This is the fucking peak Mongolia!
