Chapter 538 - The Royal Conquest
Back to Emperor Shun Li Chuang.
When he learned that the 70 million taels of gold and silver had disappeared out of thin air, Li Chuang was shocked, hurriedly checked it himself, and tortured a dozen soldiers guarding the silver warehouse.
The resulting news was even more astonishing.
The seventy million taels of gold and silver were lost at the end of the repatriation, and the interval between the two batches of silver carriages was only a stick of incense.
In other words, it took less than a stick of incense to disappear all the seventy million taels of gold and silver.
In such a short period of time, extraordinary people can do it.
Not to mention disappearing without a sound, even if you have a boat with hundreds of people, it will take half a day to move this batch of gold and silver up.
The clear answer sent chills down Li Chuang's back.
He fought in the South and North for more than ten years until he became the number one member of the rebel army. Although Li Chuang was addicted to alcohol, he was not a mediocre person.
On the contrary, Li Chuang was very alert when he was awake, otherwise he would have died countless times in Shaanxi and Gansu.
His strong intuition told him that the capital, as Song Xiance said, had become a dangerous wall.
Liu Zongmin, Aqige, and Aqina are lessons from the past.
Li Chuang also tried to muster up the courage to encourage himself not to be afraid, he was lucky enough to be the master of the world, and it was not so easy to follow in the footsteps of the first three.
But Song Xiance couldn't stand it and kept talking beside him.
Li Jing is in danger!
Li Jing is in danger!
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall!
After talking too much, the anger in Li Chuang's heart was vented. The strength of the three guys in front were all stronger than him.
He fell asleep in the middle of the night, and when he closed his eyes, he dreamed that his head had exploded, and white and red dragon chairs were everywhere.
Over the next day, Li Chuang didn't dare to drink anymore, and for the first time, he summoned a group of advisers and generals under him for an early morning court.
A group of civil servants and military generals had not received any serious early court training. After chatting about a few irrelevant issues, Song
The suggestion came again, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, the Nine Frontiers have not yet been settled. The old generals of the previous dynasty were stubborn and unresponsive. Supporting soldiers and self-respect is really a serious problem for our dynasty. I ask Your Majesty to personally march and settle the Nine Frontiers as soon as possible."
This request finally reached Li Chuang's heart.
Yujia personally conquered and settled the Nine Sides.
Listen, this is no better than "the class teacher returns to Beijing".
They are all temporarily leaving the capital. This name is justified.
And it's not just in name, to be precise, it should kill two birds with one stone.
The unresolved matter of Nine Sides' surrender is indeed a worry in Dashun's heart.
It is also a top priority to promote talks by fighting and calm down the nine sides as soon as possible.
Song Xiance was obviously preparing in advance. As soon as he spoke, half of the advisers agreed, let alone generals. Who would refuse to fight.
Ever since, in the midst of popular expectations, Li Chuang "followed goodness like a stream", approved Song Xiance's proposal, and decided to send troops northward immediately.
As for the capital city, he also made arrangements and did not just leave.
The first is to leave 50,000 people guarding the capital.
The second is to order Li Yan to appease the hearts of the people, respect the beliefs of the people, and rebuild the burned Qingniu Immortal Temple.
In this way, at noon, Li Chuang personally led 5,000 cavalry to go north, followed by the remaining 300,000 troops. The target was Jizhou City.
...
At the same time, Bazhou.
The camp of the Shun army stretches forward, and will surround Bazhou City into an iron barrel, and the shouts of killing are loud.
A moment later, Shun's army retreated like a tide, leaving behind a pile of corpses.
Beacon smoke is everywhere at the top of the city, and many places have collapsed and been blocked again, repaired and repaired, and it feels like it will collapse at any time.
However, it was this seemingly crumbling city wall that blocked the siege of the Shun Army's 200,000 troops for more than a month.
More than a month ago, Li Chuang led the main force to bypass Bazhou and go straight to the capital, but the besieging army he left behind was still very strong.
The main general Hao Yaoqi is the only one in the Shun Army.
Second to Liu Zongmin, the commander of the army, his strength is around the third rank of Waijin.
Lieutenant General Gao Yigong is also a titan, and his strength is also at the level of external strength.
Li Chuang was lucky, and the strength of his generals became stronger and stronger, breaking through to the level of external strength one after another.
Although there are not as many strong outsiders as Shen Lian, there are many others.
With an army of 200,000, there are countless people with strong inner strength. If there are too many ants, they can completely kill an elephant.
Personal strength aside, firecrackers and cannons are enough to make Shen Lian unbearable. Especially the bird gun and hand cannon, even if you are at the peak of your internal strength, you will be injured if you get hit by a gun or a cannon, not to mention the terrifying thing like the thunderbolt cannon, which can be operated by an individual.
Unlike Di Lu who is good at using bows, Shunjun prefers to use firearms. Although they don't practice well, they are as scary as they are in large numbers.
Regardless of whether you are external or internal, if you leave the protection of the city wall, you will most likely be beaten into a hornet's nest.
In the battlefield of the Dharma-ending era, individual strength is very important, but the number of groups is more important.
So Bazhou City was completely trapped to death.
At the top of the city, the defenders raised their arms and shouted, but Shen Lian looked beyond the camp outside the city to the farther north.
Although the situation in Bazhou is fairly stable, it has become a dead end here, and the only place where the situation can be broken is the capital.
One day before, Wei Yuanji sent information on the capital, and Liu Zongmin set fire to Qingniu Daxian Temple. When Shen Lian heard the news, even though he was serious, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
He waited for more than a month, and finally heard the news he wanted.
That bad guy was finally pissed off.
As if specifically to confirm Shen Lian's expectation, a white dove flew from a distance and landed on the top of the city.
Several soldiers hurried over to take out a letter from it and presented it to Shen Lian.
Shen Lian quickly opened it, and there were only four words written on it: "The tiger has left the nest!"
