The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

Was Liu Bang confident?

Given such a vast difference in national strength, it's really hard for him to say.

Although the second spot for the immortal could be filled by anyone chosen from all dynasties.

But among the people he knew, there were very few who could be chosen.

Those who chose the Qin Dynasty?

Bai Qi is useful, but he probably won't obediently listen to me.

Could it be that we can choose a nationality?

Upon entering the challenge, Xiang Ji's first action would most likely be to kill him with his knife.

As for Li Er, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhao Kuangyin and others, although they were all extremely capable, they were also the founding emperors. Wouldn't it be a huge loss of face for them to ask others for help?

So, although he seems to have many choices, in reality he only has two.

Zhang Liang and Han Xin!

[Wise Ruler Challenge Participant: Liu Bang; Assisting Challengers: Zhang Liang, Han Xin!]

Liu Bang quickly made his decision.

Liu Shan was still struggling with his decision.

He and Zhuge Liang were now facing each other in bewilderment.

Although the Ming Dynasty held a significant advantage in national strength compared to the Oirat Mongols.

But Liu Bang was by no means an ordinary man, and he also had Zhang Liang and Han Xin to assist him.

Therefore, the second candidate is worth considering.

"How about we bring Uncle Zilong along?"

Liu Shan hesitated before asking.

Even now, he still remembers the time when he and Uncle Zilong were rampaging through Cao Cao's camp.

Uncle Zilong was in charge of the rampage, and he was in charge of the screaming.

"Zilong is brave but lacks strategy. If they meet on the battlefield, he will suffer a great loss, whether facing Emperor Gaozu or Han Xin."

Zhuge Liang was somewhat tempted, but after thinking for a moment, he shook his head.

Having both courage and wisdom is the bare minimum requirement!

Yun Chang might be able to, but he is too arrogant.

or……

The late emperor!

The moment the idea popped into my head, it became unstoppable!

Among the people he knew, the late Emperor Liu Bei was considered both brave and resourceful, and there was no better choice at the moment!

Just as he was about to make a suggestion, he saw a line of subtitles flash across the sky.

Zhu Zhanji: "No one understands the Ming Dynasty better than me, and no one understands the officials in the court better than me!"

"I, too, can lead troops into battle!"

"I have no demands, I just want to kill that bastard with my own hands!"

Upon seeing these words, Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up.

Yes!

Liu Bang dared not gamble because he was in the Oirat camp, and even if he chose the Zhu family as emperor, it might not have much effect.

But Liu Shan was different!

Since he was already in the Ming Dynasty during the challenge, choosing an emperor of the Ming Dynasty as an ally would definitely make things much easier!

"Your Majesty, we are unaware of this person's abilities. Please ask Zhu Di and Zhu Qi, who participated in the challenge earlier, if they are willing to help us."

Compared to the unfamiliar name Zhu Zhanji, Zhuge Liang preferred to believe in the names of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty.

Liu Shan nodded blankly.

"The Prime Minister does not believe in your abilities. He asked me to ask Zhu Di and Zhu Laozhu if they are willing to assist us in this challenge."

Zhuge Liang: "?"

My goodness, do you really have to ask me so bluntly?

Zhu Zhanji: "?"

Old Zhu: “…”

Zhu Di: "Prime Minister Zhuge, please rest assured, my good grandson is quite capable, and his son should also be left to him to handle."

Zhu Di had no doubt about Zhu Zhanji's abilities.

It was because of this holy grandson that Zhu Gaochi was able to sit firmly on the throne as crown prince.

"Father, they don't seem too willing."

Liu Shan's gaze was somewhat innocent.

Zhuge Liang: “…”

Your Majesty, since you've said so, if they agree, wouldn't that be a sign of distrust towards their own descendants?

However, Zhu Di was probably not the type to say things against his conscience just to protect his offspring.

Zhu Zhanji's abilities were at least passable.

"Your Majesty, choose this man. He has a better understanding of the situation between the Ming Dynasty and the Oirat Mongols, and he also has a stronger control over the court officials."

After a moment's thought, Zhuge Liang made his decision.

At present, he can't think of a more suitable option.

[Challenge for a Tyrant: Participant: Liu Shan; Assisting Challengers: Zhuge Liang, Zhu Zhanji]

[The challenge begins!]

The subtitles in the sky slowly faded away, and the moment the image appeared, many people revealed amused expressions.

"Liu Bang is in for a rough time now!"

The timeline is wrong!

The difficulty of this challenge depends not only on the comparison of the two countries' national strength, but also on the timeline.

If you enter the challenge, the timeline will directly take place at Tumu Fortress, where the troop strength of both sides will be barely considered equal.

But at this time...

"I understand now, the immortal wants Emperor Gaozu of Han dead!"

Li Er suddenly stopped envying the fact that the challenge had been taken over by the Liu family.

At this point in time, if it were him, he would probably be just as helpless!

"The number one person after Yao and Shun, I never expected that I would fail miserably in my first challenge."

Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but laugh out loud as well.

"How should I put it, the only remaining question in this challenge is how long Emperor Gaozu of Han can hold out."

Old Zhu also shared his opinion.

The reason is that Liu Shan, Zhuge Liang, and Zhu Zhanji appeared in the scene within the Beijing garrison.

The 200,000-strong army has just been assembled!

There was no loss whatsoever, nor was there any damage caused by any absurd decisions.

The Beijing garrison is still at its most elite level!

"..."

After confirming the current situation, Zhu Zhanji was somewhat bewildered.

Is this challenge really that simple?

"The Beijing garrison has not yet been mobilized; the Oirat army should have just broken through Yanghe."

"If nothing unexpected happens, there will be heavy rain along the way. We should avoid this period and then send reinforcements to the area outside the pass."

"And during the torrential rain, even if the strategist and the military genius had the greatest abilities, they would never be able to breach the borders of our Great Ming!"

In a short time, Zhu Zhanji analyzed the best option at hand.

Zhuge Liang agreed with his words.

But there's another problem.

"After the rainy season, if we need to send troops, who should lead them?"

"Prime Minister Zhuge, you will be in charge of logistics, and I will personally lead the troops!"

Zhu Zhanji did not hesitate at all!

The shame left by his son should be washed away by his own hands!

His grandfather had personally led military campaigns many times, and he himself had done just as many!

"Are you sure?"

Zhuge Liang hesitated for a moment and then asked again.

"I'm 99% sure; the remaining 1% is just to give face to the strategist and the military genius!"

The stark disparity in troop strength between the enemy and ourselves convinced Zhu Zhanji that he had no room for defeat!

"Could Liang meet Yu Qian first?"

Given Zhuge Liang's personality, it was absolutely impossible for him to listen to Zhu Zhanji's one-sided opinion on this matter.

He will ask Yu Qian to confirm.

Compared to the harmonious discussions here.

On the other side of the screen, Liu Bang, Zhang Liang, and others didn't look so pleased.

Although the Oirat army under their command had just won a battle and was in high spirits, they were not happy at all.

The Battle of Yanghe did not damage the foundation of the Ming Dynasty at all!

He only had 30,000 men under his command.

Given enough time, the Ming Dynasty could even mobilize an army of over 500,000!

"The immortal really thinks highly of me. Thirty thousand against five hundred thousand, he's treating me like Xiang Yu!"
