Everyone was shocked.
Half a million?
this……
You know, Nanyang just lost 300,000! If we want to count the actual combat effectiveness of the army, they only have 400,000.
But now.
Xie Chengqian opened his mouth and it was half a million.
Obviously, he wants to bring the newly recruited recruits to the battlefield! War is the best way to train soldiers! This time, Nanyang is going to make a desperate move?
"His Majesty……"
"Your Majesty, think twice!"
"His Majesty……"
A group of civil and military officials wanted to dissuade him.
Xie Chengqian laughed at himself: "My dear friends, what have we done in Nanyang these years?"
A group of people were silent, bowing their heads in shame.
When Xie Chengqian inherited his father's throne, the territory was like this. During his reign, he only expanded the land that was not worth mentioning. But what did they pay? Three hundred thousand troops, the elite troops they have accumulated in the past few years, the countless funds, food and grass, weapons and equipment, and various investments...
To be honest, Xie Chengqian's governance of Nanyang was still serious.
But in his heart, he still did not regard this place as his home.
Due to his concept, he always felt that sooner or later he would fight back Long Yan...
Then I thought about it.
yes.
Why don't you really develop this Nanyang into a country that can be comparable to Longyan? Even if it is not comparable to Longyan, you still have to catch up with Longyan, right? This is what you should do, this is what you need to do! This is the more practical, easier and more appropriate way for you to realize your own life value.
So……
conquer.
You should also conquer what you can conquer.
This time.
He planned to believe this Liu Shilang.
He said, if you want to conquer the world with yourself, well, then give it a try.
"My dear friends, from today on, I will also establish a cabinet, promote imperial examinations, and run schools in Nanyang, all in accordance with Liu Shilang's policies! I will also build Nanyang into a more prosperous and wealthy place than Liangzhou. A stronger place!”
Xie Chengqian suddenly found his own direction in life.
A group of civil and military officials looked at each other in shock.
They were all overjoyed, and they who had just stood up continued to kneel down and worship.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
"Your Majesty's move should be celebrated throughout the country!"
"Amnesty to the world!"
Amnesty to the world.
The entire Nanyang exploded.
Xie Chengqian figured it out. Whatever he has done, he will make peace with it. No matter what the hatred of his predecessors is, no matter what Longyan's country is, no matter what he is doing in the Northern Expedition, now, he just wants to manage, develop, and bring Nanyang, which has been with him for so many years, good. Do it well.
A wave of his hand.
Half a million troops.
Three hundred thousand regular troops and two hundred thousand reserves gathered together in a mighty manner.
Warships lined up on the Pacific Ocean. Although these warships are not as powerful as the Yinzhou ships, they look just as tall and tall, and are much stronger than the Japanese pirate ships. Five hundred thousand, this is no joke, for Nanyang, it is already the strength of the whole country.
A war.
Three countries, with the strength of the whole country.
The Japanese state, with all its strength, made a desperate move.
The Li Dynasty, with the whole country's strength, resisted the Japanese.
Nanyang, the power of the whole country, is involved.
Now it's fun.
Xie Chengqian held a swearing-in meeting and ordered troops and generals. As the emperor of Nanyang, he naturally could not lead the expedition in person, because he was still needed to be in charge in the country.
then.
The eight generals under his banner set off at the same time.
This time.
Nanyang gambled all its capital.
…
Liu Zheng finally arrived at the front line.
What greeted him was a group of generals led by Xiao Qian, including Long Yan and Li Chao. Everyone was full of expectations for Liu Shilang's arrival.
"Shilang Liu is finally here!"
Xiao Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Liu Zheng.
When Liu Zheng saw so many people, he was startled. He quickly jumped off the carriage and walked over with his hands raised: "You don't have to be so polite..."
Everyone said hello one after another, and everyone was amazed at the youth of Minister Liu.
Especially the generals of the Li Dynasty, all of them found it incredible.
Having heard about Minister Liu in legends, they thought he must be at least in his thirties. At that time, they felt that it was a great loss to the Li Dynasty that their eldest princess and the most beautiful woman, Li Hyuna, fell in love with such a person. They did not expect that he was so young. But while they were surprised, they were also worried. Can such a young man with a hairless mouth and a weak mind really be able to turn things around and turn the tide?
Are those miraculous deeds an exaggeration of him, or are they just lucky?
But now, this is a real thing...
A group of people suddenly showed a lack of interest.
Liu Zheng naturally felt this emotion easily and did not explain anything. He just smiled and greeted them one after another.
"Where is General Li? Let me go and see?"
Liu Zheng asked.
Xiao Qian and others then brought Liu Zheng to Li Zhenzhu's hospital bed.
When Liu Zheng saw Li Zhenzhu, he was shocked. Is this still the Li Zhenzhu I saw before? The two met in Jingcheng at that time. At that time, Li Zhenzhu was energetic and majestic. However, now, he is a dying old man with sunken eyes and no energy.
When she saw Liu Zheng, Li Zhenzhu's eyes regained some brightness.
"Old General Li!"
Liu Zheng couldn't help but feel a sore nose.
Li Zhenzhu's eyes changed from surprise to relief, and his hand was held by Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng has already seen that this old general is on his last legs. He has been able to hold on until now only because of his breath.
"Shilang Liu..."
Li Zhenzhu, her lips trembled.
"In the……"
Liu Zheng also felt uncomfortable.
"Help Li Chao..."
Li Zhenzhu looked at Liu Zheng seriously, as if he was trying to use up his last strength.
Liu Zheng nodded heavily: "As long as Liu Zheng is here, the Li Dynasty will never be destroyed!"
"Okay, okay, I believe in you, I believe in you..."
Li Zhenzhu finally opened his mouth.
he believe.
He believes in this young man. He believes in this young man who has completely eliminated partisanship after coming to the Li Dynasty for just a few months. He believes in this man who is fascinated by a fairy like the eldest princess. He believes in this man who leads the way. With dragon flames, the young man becomes more and more powerful...
He smiled, then tilted his head.
This was the last old general of the Li Dynasty.
Just like that, I passed away forever.
"General!"
"Old General!"
"General..."
All the generals cried bitterly.
Liu Zheng sighed deeply.
Li Zhenzhu, Li Zhenzhu... why do you have to die at this time?
Dying at this time is really demoralizing. For a long time, the morale of the Li Dynasty's army was not very good, and it was all supported by the spirit of Li Zhenzhu. It's not a good thing for him to die at this time.
as expected.
In this day's battle between the two sides, Li Chao's side was once again defeated.
Big defeat.
After hearing the news of General Li's death, the morale of these Li Dynasty soldiers was completely depleted. The Japanese side seized the opportunity and beat up the fallen dog.
Twenty thousand.
Another loss of 20,000!
It was still raining, and there were dead bodies everywhere on the muddy battlefield.
As soon as these soldiers returned to the camp, they asked for the old general to come and see him off, which caused extreme chaos in the camp.
the next day.
Continued defeat.
The situation continues to be sluggish.
Everyone is waiting for Liu Shilang.
Everyone is waiting to see how he will turn the tide.
It was getting late that day, and Liu Zheng, who had been hiding in the tent, finally came out.
This made the generals of the Li Dynasty who were busy nearby stop and look at him.
"Call, all soldiers."
Liu Zheng shouted coldly.
"Gather together!"
"Everyone gather!"
Suddenly, the entire camp was shouting and cursing. They had been fighting all day and finally took a break. Why did they gather together again? Except for the wounded and those who were busy repairing the fortifications, everyone was cursing and gathered on the open ground of the camp.
Xiao Qian also came.
He knew what Liu Zheng was going to do.
mobilization.
Morale at this time is really important. When Li Zhenzhu was alive, even though the Li Dynasty's army was not very effective in combat, it still had a strong spirit. But after Li Zhenzhu died like this, it was an army of more than 200,000 people... There were all kinds of people, and so on. There are all kinds of psychological activities.
Then these emotions, fermented by the tension of this battlefield, will naturally amplify infinitely.
Of course, it's impossible for everyone to gather together.
But at a glance, it was still densely packed, and the whole place was filled with noises, shouts and curses, one after another.
Liu Zheng watched quietly.
These soldiers kept making a noise.
He just kept waiting.
Always noisy.
He just kept waiting.
Unknowingly, half an hour passed just like that.
These people don’t understand anymore.
What do you want to do?
Call them together and say nothing?
They continued to argue, but Liu Zheng still waited.
When they realized that they might have to close their mouths so that Liu Shilang could speak, everyone was furious, but the noisy voices in the scene still stopped.
"read!"
Liu Zheng then handed a piece of paper in his hand to the deputy general.
The lieutenant was stunned for a moment, then took advantage of the light of the torch to read loudly.
"To spread the word..."
"Hundreds of years have passed since the Japanese wolves invaded Li. They poisoned millions of lives and ravaged prefectures and counties for more than 2,000 miles. The land they passed through was like locusts passing through the fields, plundering them all and leaving no grass behind!"
Everyone was stunned.
What's this?
"Episode?"
Several generals of the Li Dynasty also looked at each other.
"Those who are captured by thieves will be stripped of their clothes, and their money and silver will be searched. If they have two taels of silver and do not offer it to the thieves, they will be beheaded in the wild. The men will offer a dou of rice every day, and drive them forward in front of the battle, building fortifications and dredging. Women. People are given a dou of rice a day, and they are driven to camp and keep vigil at night, and they are driven to transport rice and carry coal. If a woman refuses to remove her feet, she will be beheaded immediately to show the public! Those who hear it will shed tears, how sad!"
Everyone's expressions changed greatly after hearing this.
cruel!
Too cruel! These soldiers naturally knew how these Japanese people insulted their Li Dynasty, but as Liu Shilang described it in such detail, this was the first time they heard it!
As long as this group of Japanese come to the Li Dynasty, no matter men, women, old or young, they will become the targets of their killing!
brute!
This is a bunch of beasts!
Liu Zheng suddenly ignited the hatred in the hearts of these people, and those pictures appeared in their minds one after another.
