Zhang Beichen said: "Sir, we should indeed take the initiative!"
Gongzihua asked: "You mean to tell your father about this matter and let him take action against Zhao Yun?"
Zhang Beichen shook his head and said: "My master is kind by nature, so he may not believe it, and he may not take action against Zhao Yun. Doing so will only scare the enemy."
"I think we should try our best to avoid taking action in the capital. Instead, we should set up a trap outside and let Zhao Yun jump in. Kill her directly when she is not prepared!"
Gongzihua asked: "It seems you already have an idea?"
Zhang Beichen nodded and said: "Sir, my father's sand dune royal tomb is almost completed. You can suggest my father to inspect your royal tomb. My father will definitely agree and will bring Zhao Yun with him. You just need to go there in advance. By setting up an ambush at the Sand Dune Palace, Zhao Yun can be killed. It can even make the father-in-law hand over his power!"
"At that time, you will be the real king of Zhao country, the only king!"
Zhang Beichen's words made Young Master Hua very moved. He thought about it for a while and found that it was really feasible. He said excitedly: "Okay, Zhang Beichen, if this happens, I will definitely reward you heavily!"
Zhang Beichen said with a cold face: "Sir, I don't want any other reward, I just want to kill Zhao Yun!"
"Don't worry, it's me or her!" Gongzihua said with a smile.
…
[Gongzihua proposed to King Zhao Ling that he visit the Sand Dune King’s Tomb on his birthday. King Zhaoling readily agreed and ordered Zhao Yun and Gongzihua to accompany him there. 】
…
"Zhang Qing's plan succeeded!" Zhao Yun got the news and immediately made arrangements.
She did not use any forces in the capital. Instead, she asked Shinan, who was far away in Xindu, to lead a group of elite troops to the sand dunes in advance and ambush around them.
On the other side, Gongzihua also led his troops to ambush in the sand dunes. But at this time, Gongzihua was not in power, and he did not have many private soldiers.
In order to avoid arousing Zhao Yun's suspicion, he did not arrange too many people.
On the contrary, Xinnan jumped out all his elite soldiers, plus some generals, all of whom were masters of the fourth realm or above, well-equipped and capable of using military formations to coordinate. Even King Zhao Ling of the Ninth Realm couldn't last ten breaths under their siege!
…
Sand Dune, King Zhao Ling has arrived here with a group of cronies and his children.
The magnificent style of his royal tomb construction made King Zhao Ling very happy.
So that night, he held a banquet in the palace to entertain the officials.
At this time, neither party chose to take action. Because King Zhao Ling also brought some elite soldiers, he may not be able to win if he attacks rashly.
After the banquet, King Zhao Ling, Zhao Yun and Gong Zihua returned to their respective residences.
King Zhao Ling lives in the master's father's palace, Zhao Yun lives in Zhao Wang's palace, and Gongzi Hua lives in the temporary palace. The three palaces are all far away from each other because they are wary of each other.
…
【That night. Seeing that it's getting late, you remind Young Master Hua to take action. 】
"Sir, it's almost time!" Zhang Beichen reminded, "Zhao Yun must have gone to bed now, and the guards' defense has slackened, so take advantage of this moment to take action!"
"Okay!" Gongzihua had been looking forward to this moment for a long time, and he couldn't wait to say: "Zhang Beichen, I order you to bring five hundred swordsmen and axemen to the Zhao Palace to kill Zhao Yun!"
"I am waiting for news here. If you succeed, I will go to my father's palace and ask my father to abdicate!"
"Yes!" Zhang Beichen led the people and set off.
Not long after, Gongzihua stood on a high place and looked at the faint light of fire coming from the direction of Zhao Wang's palace. There must have been a disturbance.
Gongzihua was nervous and looking forward to it. After waiting for more than an hour, Zhang Beichen came back with the knife and axe.
He shouted: "Sir, I have fulfilled my mission. Zhao Yun is dead, and this is her body!"
Zhang Beichen was holding the body of a woman in his hand, wearing the clothes of King Zhao.
It was late at night and the distance was so far that Gongzihua could not see clearly and thought it was really Zhao Yun.
He was ecstatic and laughed: "Hahaha, Zhao Yun, you never thought you would die here!"
Young Master Hua hurriedly ran to Zhang Beichen and shouted: "Quick, let me take a look!"
"Master, please take a look!" Zhang Beichen put the body on the ground. Master Hua squatted down and was about to take a closer look. Zhang Beichen raised his knife and struck him directly from behind, cutting off his head!
"Young Master!" During this trip, Tian Buyi and Yan Fang were both there. When they saw that Zhang Beichen actually killed Young Master Hua, they were horrified!
Tian Buyi hurriedly ran back and shouted: "General Yan, we have fallen into a trap! Hurry up and kill Zhang Beichen!"
Yan Fang wanted to mobilize troops, Zhang Beichen smiled and said: "It's too late!"
Around them, several groups of cavalry came from all directions, and it was Shinnan who led the people to surround them.
[Tian Buyi and Yan Fang tried their best to resist, but in the end they were defeated by the army and killed with random swords! 】
"Okay! Zhang Qing, you did a great job!" Zhao Yun couldn't help but be overjoyed when she saw it.
She ordered Xinnan and others, "Go to the Lord's Father's Palace with Gu!"
Zhang Beichen shouted at this time: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment!"
Zhao Yun asked doubtfully: "What else are you going to do?"
"Your Majesty can't go!" Zhang Beichen emphasized.
"If you don't go now, if the master learns the news, leaves the sand dunes, and then mobilizes troops, the Zhao country will inevitably fall into turmoil again!" Zhao Yun said.
"What I mean is that the king continues to return to the Zhao palace and pretends that he doesn't know what to do. I will go to the master's father's palace!" Zhang Beichen analyzed: "The king is the master's father's daughter. The master's father has a very high reputation in the country. If the king kills Father, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction in the country and cause chaos!"
"Let me take the blame for this kind of crime!"
Hearing Zhang Beichen's words, Zhao Yun was extremely moved. This was so thoughtful!
She realized that she really couldn't live without Zhang Beichen! Whether it's simulation or reality!
…
[You and Xinnan led troops to surround the Lord's Father's Palace. 】
In the Lord's father's palace, King Zhao Ling had already discovered something was wrong.
He stood on the top of the palace and cursed angrily at Zhang Beichen and Xinnan: "Zhang Beichen, Xinnan, do you two want to rebel?"
Xinnan was in awe of King Zhao Ling and did not dare to reply.
Zhang Beichen smiled and said: "Master, there are thieves making trouble tonight, and they have killed Young Master Hua. We are here specially to protect Master!"
"Bastard!" King Zhao Ling yelled, "Leading troops to surround my palace is what you call protection? You rebellious minister, I will kill you!"
Zhang Beichen ignored his insults and threats and said, "Master, please go back to the palace to rest. I will deal with the rebellion on my own!"
King Zhao Ling also knew that he was no match for so many sergeants, so he had no choice but to return to the palace.
At this time, Zhang Beichen ordered again: "Release all the other maids, servants, and soldiers in the master's father's palace, leaving only the master's father here!"
"As you command!"
The soldiers released all the palace servants in the lord's father's palace. Seeing that they had a way to survive, the palace servants fled one after another without caring about King Zhao Ling.
King Zhao Ling wanted to leave, but was stopped by them.
King Zhao Ling was furious and fought with the soldiers. Even though he was a strong man in the Nine Realms, his two fists could not beat the four hands, and he was firmly suppressed by the soldiers.
Zhang Beichen emphasized: "No one is allowed to kill anyone. We cannot bear the crime of eating the master!"
…
[You lead the troops and besiege King Zhao Ling in the Lord's Father's Palace, depriving him of water and food. Zhao Yun left the sand dunes and returned to the capital to purge the cronies of King Zhao Ling and Gong Zihua, truly taking control of the highest power in the Zhao Kingdom! 】
[Two months later, you will enter the Lord’s father’s palace. King Zhao Ling has already starved to death. You ordered that King Zhao Ling be buried in his royal mausoleum with the courtesy of a king. 】
King Zhao Ling never expected that he would come to visit his royal tomb and actually live in it!
"Hey!" Xinnan couldn't bear it and sighed: "My father abdicated the throne but refused to truly abdicate, which led to this tragedy!"
[After Zhao Yun came to power, he appointed you as the prime minister of Zhao State and began to govern Zhao State. 】
…
"Damn it, why is she so fast this time?" Yan Qingwu from Yan Kingdom felt bad after hearing the news. She also said that she would quickly conquer the Hu tribe in this game, and then take advantage of Zhao's country to attack Zhao.
As a result, only a few months after the game started, Zhao Yun killed his brother and father and took control of power.
"It's that Zhang Beichen again!" Yan Qingwu was filled with hatred, "If Zhang Beichen is on my side, I will kill him first!"
Zhang Beichen has not ruined his own affairs once or twice. In many simulations, Zhang Beichen led troops to destroy the Yan Kingdom!
…
After Zhang Beichen became prime minister, he began to think about how to play this game.
This game has a lot more development time than the previous game. Zhao's national strength can actually dispatch some troops for conquest. But after Zhang Beichen thought about it, he gave up the idea.
In the last game, Zhao State failed in the end because of repeated battles, and finally lost due to lack of food and grass, and was defeated without a fight!
This is an error that shouldn't happen.
Zhang Beichen took a look and realized that Zhao State should not be short of food at all!
Zhao State is rich in land resources and has grain-producing areas such as the Hetao Plain, North China Plain, Datong Plain, and Taiyuan Basin!
In these places, the land is fertile and the rain is abundant, making them very suitable for growing food.
Moreover, the land of Zhao State spans a large distance from north to south and has a variety of climatic conditions, so there are many crops that can be grown.
Logically speaking, with such innate conditions, Zhao State can definitely become the world's granary!
But because King Zhao Ling liked the nomadic lifestyle, the entire country did not attach much importance to agricultural production.
Because the land is fertile, famine is unlikely to occur. So they don’t care much about food security, which means when something goes wrong, there’s no way to remedy it!
Zhang Beichen decided to vigorously develop agriculture first. Now that we have food, we have a population and an economy, we have people, and we have money, why are we still afraid that our military power will not be strong?
…
[As Prime Minister, you began to go deep into the people and investigate the land, climate and crop conditions in various places. 】
[You began to vigorously promote iron farm tools. Iron farm tools greatly improved the efficiency of agricultural production, and Zhao's grain output increased. 】
[You invented the keel waterwheel for irrigation and the columbine for sowing. With these two weapons, Zhao's grain output has been increased again. 】
[You inspect the environment of Zhao State and find that the rainfall belt is within the territory of Zhao State at this time. So you proposed that grain planting should be done with two crops a year or three crops every two years, and ordered officials from all over the country to vigorously promote it. The grain output of Zhao State was directly doubled! 】
[In order to cooperate with food planting, you began to promote deep plowing, medium hoeing, fertilizer accumulation and fertilization techniques, and established dry latrines across the country. The promotion of fertilizers greatly increased food production. 】
[In order to cooperate with agricultural production, you summoned the people to build water conservancy projects such as canals and reservoirs in Zhao State, which once again promoted agricultural production. 】
[In order to increase food output. You set up a food officer, traveled to various countries to select excellent crop seeds for cross-breeding, and improved the seeds of many crops. 】
[Seven years later, Zhao State has become a major agricultural country, and its grain industry has increased several times, enough to be called the granary of the world! 】
…
[You get a new skin. 】
[Fruit harvest: Zhang Beichen] Four golden stars.
On the screen, Zhang Beichen is wearing a straw hat and standing in the waves of golden wheat with a simple smile.
Skin effect: Farmer's cultivation speed increases by 18%, crop yield increases by 5%, and crop growth speed increases by 5%.
Skin skills [Hybridization: There is a certain probability of cultivating excellent crop seeds. 】
This time, Zhang Beichen got the skin related to the farmer.
Farmers are also one of hundreds of scholars and can be found in all countries. However, the peasant family did not have a complete organization, and because most of the members of the organization were ordinary people, they were not valued by the nobles.
…
"The grain of our country, Zhao, has been piled up to the point where the granary can no longer fit in it?" Zhao Yun was surprised when she looked at Zhang Beichen's report.
In the past, every time Zhao sent troops, there would be a shortage of food and grass.
Now, more than twice as many new granaries have been built across the country. Even so, there is still too much food to eat!
According to calculations, even if the population of Zhao State were doubled or tripled, the current food output would be enough to feed them!
This means that Zhao State can have a large population!
Zhao Yun was overjoyed and immediately issued a new decree.
[You issue an order throughout the country to encourage childbirth. Anyone who gives birth to a child will be rewarded with money and food by the government based on their population! 】
This is the first time for Zhao Yun to experience the feeling of having both money and food in hand!
In this era, food is money!
Using grain trading, Zhao Guo can buy Korean crossbows, Qin Guo's horses, Wei Guo's swords... Resources from various countries are continuously flowing into Zhao Guo!
"Zhang Qing is really a god!" Zhao Yun already "can't put it down" for Zhang Beichen.
She didn't forget to give Zhang Beichen a good impression in this game. Because of their skin-to-heart relationship, the two of them had a very high initial favorable impression.
After many gifts and titles, the two's goodwill has reached the level of trust.
Of course, the same King of Qin, King of Wei and King of Han also did not forget to improve Zhang Beichen's favorability. Now their favorability with Zhang Beichen has reached a very high level.
…
With money, food, and population, Zhang Beichen began to train a new army. He wanted to more than double the number of troops!
[You spent two years training the new book, and the number of Zhao’s army expanded to 800,000! 】
These 800,000 people usually work in agriculture and can be mobilized at any time as long as they are recruited!
And now, only ten years have passed since the simulation of time and space began!
In ten years, Qin State is still attacking Yiqu State, Wei State is attacking Song State, South Korea is attacking Zhongshan State, Yan State is attacking Hu people, Qi's internal rebellion has been suppressed, and it is attacking Yue State.
As for the Chu Kingdom, although the King of Chu did not go crazy with her exercises this time, there was still no movement in her round.
Intelligence showed that she seemed to be concentrating on training and preparing to break through to the holy realm sooner.
…
[You wrote to the King of Zhao to launch an external expedition. The State of Zhao agreed to your proposal and summoned you, Shinnan, Hijian and other ministers to discuss the expedition. 】
Xinnan said: "We should go to Yan State first. Yan State and Zhao State are feuding. If we destroy Yan State first, Zhao State will have no worries in the rear!"
Hidden also agreed with his proposal.
This plan is naturally feasible for an expedition to the Yan Kingdom. After all, Zhang Beichen destroyed the Yan State in the last round. This round, the Zhao State is much stronger than before. Even if they fight directly along the Yellow River, the Yan State cannot stop them.
But Zhang Beichen said: "Your Majesty, I think we can ignore the Yan State for the time being. The Yan State's road to the Central Plains is blocked by us. No matter how the Yan State develops, it will not be stronger than us!"
"The neighboring states of Qin, Wei, and South Korea are powerful and developing rapidly. If we attack them first, Zhao will have a greater chance of taking over the world in the future!"
Fei Jian heard this and said: "The Prime Minister is right. If we attack South Korea, Qin, Wei, Chu, Qi, and Yan may all support South Korea, making us the loser."
"Wei is very powerful. Attacking Wei is asking for trouble."
"Then there is only the Qin State! Although the Qin State has conquered some Rongdi tribes, it is still the weaker one among many countries. It is advisable to send troops to the Qin State!"
Zhao Yun said: "Then attack Qin first!"
…
[Zhao Yun appoints you as a general and leads an army of five hundred thousand to attack Qin. 】
[The King of Qin learned the news and sent Ying Meng as a general to lead an army of 300,000 to defend. 】
[The King of Zhao sent an invitation to the King of Han and the King of Wei, asking them to send troops to attack Qin together. 】
…
Wei Guo, Wei Yao saw the letter of credence sent by Zhao Yun.
"Fight against Qin? I am good at this!" Wei Yao became interested and immediately ordered: "Pang Ming, I order you to lead an army of 300,000 to attack Qin!"
…
When Han Mengshu saw the news, he naturally agreed to send troops. Because if Qin wants to go east, it must attack South Korea, so if someone wants to attack Qin again, she will naturally help.
…
[The Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms led a total of one million troops and attacked Qin in three directions. Upon seeing this, King Yiqu also mobilized the power of the whole country to compete with the Qin army! 】
Ying Yin felt a headache looking at the situation in front of him. Qin State had done a good job in Yiqu. If no one interferes, Yiqu can be destroyed within a year.
Now the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces actually reached one million!
"How did Mr. Beichen do it? How could Zhao country have such a large population?" Ying Yin was absolutely powerless.
During this period, although the population of various countries increased, it was not as exaggerated as doubling.
And Zhang Beichen doubled the population of Zhao State in just ten years in Zhao State. This is too exaggerated!
How can she resist an army of one million now? What's more, there are famous generals such as Zhang Beichen and Pang Ming!
The people of Yingyin had no choice but to ask for help from Chu, Yan and Qi.
[The King of Yan agreed to send troops to assist, and she sent General Qing Bai to lead an army of 200,000 to assist Qin. 】
[The King of Chu agreed to send troops to assist, and she sent General Xiang Mu to lead an army of 300,000 to assist Qin. 】
[The King of Qi refused to send troops to assist. 】
