Please call me Your Majesty!

Chapter 49 I don’t care about your mother’s head!

No.

Aren’t you being too aggressive?

Huan Yi really has something to say.

Who are you, Wang Shouyi?
He started an uprising in the south and established the Southern Dynasty in ten years, which was named Song. If nothing else, he was indeed a monarch who successfully exercised powerful rule over the local area.

Although he was born in a humble family, with so many years of military experience, Huan Yi really did not treat Wang Shouyi as an ordinary person.

What's more, in the previous simulations, there was a scenario where Wang Shouyi captured Chang'an and directly unified the world.

An army of one hundred thousand men is like one hundred thousand pigs. If you let two thousand cavalrymen trample them back and forth, no one knows how long it will take.

The massive four-way siege headed straight for Luzhou.

It just collapsed in an instant?

You must know that Luzhou is the Southern Dynasty government represented by Wang Shouyi, a separatist force in the south with Yingtian Prefecture as its capital, and a way out must be opened up.

If Wang Shouyi fails to capture Luzhou, he will not be able to conquer the north. This is a critical juncture, and also the first hurdle for the southern separatist forces to succeed in their northern expedition.

At the first line of defense, this 100,000-strong army not only failed to capture Luzhou, but was instead broken down by Chu Shizhao's black-armored cavalry.

This was an unprecedented and huge blow to Wang Shouyi's forces. If he wanted to launch another Northern Expedition in the future, whether Wang Shouyi's subordinates would be willing to support him was another matter.

After all, for Wang Shouyi's men, their lives had already improved without the need for the Northern Expedition. Now they had all become high-ranking officials and could enjoy a good life.

Not everyone wants to fight for their life and live a life of life and death.

Among the Northern Expeditions, only the first one was the most united, because for Wang Shouyi's subordinates, there was not much risk in giving it a try for the first time, and if it succeeded, they would take a step forward.

If we continue to march north, we will really have to gamble our lives and property.

There isn't much benefit.

Therefore, after losing for the first time, the majority of people will be unwilling to do it again.

In the long run, the Northern Expedition is more meaningful only to Wang Shouyi himself.

Therefore, in the first Northern Expedition, Wang Shouyi could not miss the opportunity. He would certainly seize such an opportunity and spare no effort to deal with the Battle of Luzhou.

In fact, Wang Shouyi's response to the Battle of Luzhou is also very clear in the information of the simulation content.

He was not simply seeking stability. On the one hand, he was planning an offensive route, and on the other hand, he was seeking to politically dismantle the ties between Chu Shizhao and the court in Chang'an.

It's not a matter of just relying on military capabilities to get by.

But he never expected that Chu Shizhao could lead 2,000 cavalrymen to defeat his troops head-on.

So, this is the most exaggerated point.

This was a 100,000-strong Northern Expedition Army that was well prepared and united.

I just haven't fought head-on.

The number of two thousand people exceeded one hundred thousand.

Wang Shouyi was beaten to the point of fleeing north in panic. This was truly due to Chu Shizhao's amazing performance.

Li Fengning also found such a record incredible.

The down-and-out fourth brother was displaced and guarded the capital Chang'an. If you want to say whether the previous Chu Shizhao had military talent, Li Fengning thought he did.

After all, without any military power, Chu Shizhao held on to Chang'an with the temporarily recruited troops.

When the Huns attacked, all the members of the Zhou royal family who should have fled ran away, and Chu Shizhao held on for ten days.

When the rebel army attacked, all the members of the Zhou royal family who should have fled fled, and Chu Shizhao held on for twelve days.

It’s normal that we can’t win, the gap in strength is too big.

But now, Chu Shizhao has achieved a result that Li Fengning could hardly have imagined.

Anyone who has experience in leading a team knows how difficult it is to achieve such results.

When you see a huge crowd of people in front of you and you only have two thousand people on your side, this feeling of oppression alone may cause desertion.

First of all, you have to convince these two thousand people to follow you.

This is why Chu Shizhao had to lead the charge, because he himself took the lead and he was not afraid of death, so there was no way these two thousand black-armored cavalry would not follow him.

But no matter what, people always weigh the pros and cons, and it is human nature to want to run away when faced with a danger that exceeds their ability to bear.

If Chu Shizhao fails to win the support of his troops, he will not be able to achieve such an effect.

This is almost a battle that is difficult to replicate.

You need a commander who dares to charge into battle, a well-trained cavalry, and a cavalry that highly trusts the commander, only then will you be qualified to draw your sword.

But so many pre-requisites are just the conditions for them to dare to charge with an army of 100,000.

In fact, even if he didn't win, Chu Shizhao's courage to draw the sword would go down in history books.

If you win the battle, it’s not a question of whether it will be recorded in history books or not, you may even be able to enter the Temple of Martial Arts.

This is the highest palace for a military commander.

Li Fengning dreams of entering the Temple of Martial Arts.

In the last simulation, her father Li Jin fought in many battles for many years and put down the rebellion in the south, but he did not have the opportunity to enter the Temple of Martial Arts because Li Jin did not achieve convincing military results and make great contributions to the court.

With just this one battle, Chu Shizhao had already stepped half a foot into the Temple of Martial Arts.

It can even be said that this battle is not simply a reflection of military capability, but also requires absolute personal charm and the ability to gain the trust of the troops.

as predicted.

The chain reaction of winning the battle appeared immediately.

[In February of the third year of Zhenping, after the battle of Luzhou, Wang Shouyi's hair turned white overnight. Facing the Northern Expedition, he gradually began to have the intention of retreating and decided to stay in a corner and rule by dividing the river.]

[In March of the third year of Zhenping, Chu Shizhao launched a war to destroy Shu, and defined Zhou Shu, founded by his uncle Chu Xuanhong, as a local rebellion.]

[Chu Shizhao dispatched his troops, and their morale was high. King Chu Xuanhong of Shu put up a desperate resistance, trying to use the dangerous mountain terrain to hold on.]

[In April of the third year of Zhenping, the army marched forward, and Chu Shizhao was unstoppable, using the order to suppress the rebellion to advance all the way.]

[Many places were forced to avoid the sharp edge because of Chu Shizhao's reputation and the previous feat of 2,000 cavalrymen defeating Wang Shouyi.]

[In April of the third year of Zhenping, most of the subjects in Shu were forced to pay more taxes to prepare for the war, and they did not want to fight against the famous Chu Shizhao. Many of them surrendered without a fight and submitted to Chu Shizhao's army.]

[Chu Shizhao attacked Shu all the way and even conquered nine cities in one day.]

[In May of the third year of Zhenping, Chu Shizhao recovered Shu. Within a year, he defeated Wang Shouyi's army of 100,000 and recovered Shu, thus achieving the feat of destroying a country.]

[In June of the third year of Zhenping, Chu Shizhao led his army back to the court and entered Chang'an. He immediately dispatched his own troops to replace the official troops originally stationed in Chang'an to ensure his own safety.]

[In July of the third year of Zhenping, Chu Shizhao asked the court to lead the army south to try to defeat Song and return the mountains and rivers of the Great Zhou Dynasty so that his father who had passed away could rest in peace.] [The court did not dare to go against Chu Shizhao's wishes.]

[In August of the third year of Zhenping, the Xiongnu took advantage of the fact that Chu Shizhao's army was constantly being dispatched and took the opportunity to enter the country and plunder the people in the north.]

[They believed that Chu Shizhao would not fight back against them in order to destroy the Song people in the south.]

[But something unexpected happened. Chu Shizhao stopped his move southward and instead dispatched his troops to actively prepare for defense against the Xiongnu invasion.]

[In September of the third year of Zhenping, when faced with the Xiongnu invasion, the governor of Daning, Lü Zhuo, retreated again and again and gave in again and again in order to preserve his own strength, causing the people of Daning Prefecture to be brutally slaughtered by the Xiongnu.]

[Faced with this situation, his defense to the court was that the Xiongnu were powerful and as the governor of Daning, he was powerless. Rather than burying his troops here, it would be better to temporarily avoid them and wait for reinforcements to gather before fighting back.]

[In order to win over Da Ning Jiedushi Lü Zhuo, the imperial court naturally accepted this explanation.]

[But Chu Shizhao thought that he had already mobilized troops to rush to Daning Prefecture for assistance. As long as Lü Zhuo could delay the Xiongnu for a certain period of time and prevent them from attacking the city, he would be able to reach the battlefield in time. Why did the people of Daning Prefecture suffer such a terrible fate? ]

[“All the people in the world are citizens of the Great Zhou. If we allow our people to be humiliated just because the Xiongnu are so powerful, will anyone be willing to defend the country in the future?”]

【“Giving in and compromising is never the way a country should go.”】

[“The mountains and rivers of the Great Zhou are not only the mountains and rivers of the emperor, not only the mountains and rivers of the ancestors of the Great Zhou, nor are they the mountains and rivers of my Chu family. They are also the mountains and rivers of the people of the Great Zhou. Shi Zhao is not talented, but I am willing to protect them with my life.”]

[You used military law to punish the governor of Daning, Lü Zhuo, and those generals who retreated without fighting.]

[In October of the third year of Zhenping, Chu Shizhao led his army to recapture Daning Prefecture, but the entire Daning Prefecture had already been ruined.]

[The Xiongnu were puzzled by Chu Shizhao's behavior. They believed that Chu Shizhao should first attack the Song Dynasty in the south instead of provoking them.]

[Soon, the Huns sent a talented wizard from their tribe as an envoy.]

[“Why did your Majesty start a war with us again?” the Xiongnu envoy asked disapprovingly.]

[In the eyes of the Xiongnu, they were just killing a few people and stealing some things, and the Great Zhou Dynasty had plenty of people and things.]

Chu Shizhao received the Xiongnu envoys in Daning Prefecture. He thought the Xiongnu wanted to make peace with him, but he did not expect that the Xiongnu would not only not show a conciliatory attitude, but also questioned him why he wanted to be an enemy of the Xiongnu.

[He did not get angry but laughed and said, "It is you who are my enemy."]

[“I heard that a group of people in the south of the Great Zhou started a rebellion and established a new dynasty named Song. Your Majesty, instead of attacking the Song people, you come to fight us. Isn’t this courting your own destruction?”]

[“Since the 28th year of Yongjin, you Xiongnu people have invaded the border every year.” Chu Shizhao threw the memorial in his hand to the ground. ]

[“In the second month of the twenty-ninth year, he killed a thousand people and fled.”]

[“In May of the 29th year, he seized the Hundred Households and left.”]

[“In August of the 29th year, the Lujin County was massacred.”]

[“Do I need to personally read out to you all these evil deeds?”]

[“The strong prey on the weak, this has been the truth since ancient times.” The Xiongnu envoy hesitated for a moment and said, “Besides, if Your Majesty wants to go to war with the Xiongnu just because of these trivial matters, wouldn’t that give the Song people an opportunity?”]

[“Your Majesty, you should weigh the pros and cons.”]

[“Although we have invaded the border, we have no intention of taking over the Central Plains. Your Majesty, if you can give us some benefits and let us, the Xiongnu, spend the winter, we will retreat on our own.”]

[“But the Song people are different. They are against your Great Zhou Dynasty. Once the Great Zhou goes to war with us Xiongnu, they will have the opportunity to profit.”]

[“Your Majesty is going to war with us Xiongnu, and you are also going to war with the Song people. You are being attacked from both sides. Do you need me to tell you the pros and cons?”]

[“How about this, Your Majesty, just make sure that we Xiongnu people have enough food to survive the winter, and we will naturally not come to our borders so frequently in the future.”]

【Watching the Xiongnu envoy talking, and believing that Chu Shizhao would compromise, Chu Shizhao raised his hand slightly. 】

[“Come here, behead this man and show him to the public.”]

[At this moment, the Xiongnu envoy's face immediately changed. He thought Chu Shizhao would definitely not dare to offend the Xiongnu after weighing the pros and cons, but he did not expect Chu Shizhao to be so stubborn.]

[“Your Majesty, when two armies clash, you should not kill envoys. Besides, I am just weighing the pros and cons for you!”]

Chu Shizhao sneered: "Attacking you Xiongnu is disadvantageous, not attacking you Xiongnu is beneficial."

[“You weighed the pros and cons for me, so that I can see the suffering of the people at the border as unjust?”]

[“Since the Yongjin period, our dynasty has lost the trust of the people. It was this king who gradually gained the trust of the people, which led to the peaceful situation in the North today.”]

[“If you want to fight, then fight.”]

[“You are just trying to blatantly invade our surrounding fortresses by wasting your breath.”]

[“Besides, when my army marches south to capture Yingtian Prefecture, will you Xiongnu people really sit back and do nothing?”]

[You killed the Xiongnu envoy.]

[In September of the third year of Zhenping, after the death of the Xiongnu envoy, the Xiongnu Khan immediately assembled his army and wanted to fight a battle with the Great Zhou Dynasty to show their anger over this matter.]

The Huns sent the envoy to speak in this way, believing that Chu Shizhao would weigh the pros and cons and give priority to attacking Wang Shouyi's separatist forces.

However, if Chu Shizhao believed it, that would be really stupid.

He defeated Wang Shouyi's proactive advance because Wang Shouyi gave up the natural defenses and took the initiative to attack.

The attacking side is actually the most difficult one, as they have to consider many things, while the defending side has cities and natural barriers for protection.

Generally, defensive battles can achieve an excellent damage-to-death ratio.

Unlike the rebellion in Shu, Wang Shouyi's rule was effective. A rash or small-scale attack would not accomplish anything.

If you want to fight, you must give it your all to have a chance.

So at that time, if Chu Shizhao used all his troops to fight Wang Shouyi, would the Huns keep their promise and not fight?

It's noisy.

You can never trust what outsiders say.

The only person Chu Shizhao can trust is himself.

And let’s not talk about who to fight for now. What the Huns did was disgusting. They were only allowed to come, and Chu Shizhao was not allowed to fight back.

As long as Chu Shizhao fights back, it means he does not take the overall situation seriously.

But is Chu Shizhao a good-tempered person?
The Huns attacked your cities, beat your people, plundered your population, and robbed you of your food. After that, they even stepped on your head. In particular, they pretended to care about the overall situation and persuaded you that this was wrong and that was right, and that we should consider the overall situation.

I'll take care of your mother's head!

Cheap or not?

Chu Shizhao couldn't be timid at all.

That's the kind of bastard he was beating.

Like to take advantage of others' misfortunes.

Like watching plays?

I, Chu Shizhao, am here to watch the show first!
