Chapter three hundred and seventy-fifth: benefit in the future
Looking at the emperors from all over the world, no one can compare with Zhao Changqing's great achievements. Even Liang Emperor Xu Fengyun personally admitted that Wei Emperor Zhao Changqing was a peerless hero that rarely appeared in hundreds of years.
However, Emperor Duandi could not understand the current situation at all, and still thought that with his own strength, he could really relieve the country's worries.
As everyone knows, the real problem is yet to come.
The Tang army began to surround the capital of Duanguo.
In the important southern towns of Duan Kingdom, another 100,000 people were gathered together, known as a million-strong army, to serve the king.
But the Tang army had nothing to fear. It should besiege the city and block the attack. After the siege, dozens of battles of various sizes were launched one after another outside the Duanguo imperial capital. The so-called King Duanguo Qin’s army also
Almost all was wasted.
The people who came to King Qin were all new recruits, many of whom had never even been on the battlefield, and there was no way they could be the opponents of the Tang army who were victorious in every battle.
The princes and ministers of Duan Kingdom in the city became discouraged after knowing that King Qin's army was defeated again and again. They were unwilling to defend the capital and wanted to survive.
Many people have this mentality, which has caused everyone in the capital to be frightened and feel that a disaster is coming.
But Emperor Duan was not afraid of tigers when he was born. After experiencing so many failures, he still felt that it didn't matter. He still felt that it was just bad luck. He would definitely be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish to become the emperor of the ages and change his destiny against the will of heaven.
The mere defeat of King Qin's army was not a big deal.
These days, the Tang army only besieged the city but did not attack. Changsun Chong thought in his heart that the Tang army was not sure of victory and could capture the capital, so he besieged but did not attack.
However, he, who did not understand fighting at all, did not understand at all that this was the strategy of the Tang army.
If you encircle without attacking, you will first let the morale of the army and the people in the city be distracted. Then the so-called Duanguo capital will naturally collapse without attack.
What's more, Tang Jun still has a solid ally who hasn't shown up.
He is Wei Guo!
Tang Jun needs to know what their exact movements are before they can truly make bold decisions with confidence.
In the Imperial City of Luoyang.
The prince is accompanying Zhao Changqing to play chess in the pavilion.
Zhuge Liang told the latest information about Duan Guo one by one.
Now, the Tang army is besieging the city, and the time is just right.
Zhao Changqing was not in a hurry to make a decision. He looked at the prince Zhao Hongqing and asked deliberately: "My son, how do you think you should make a choice about this matter?"
Zhao Hongqing held his move and hesitated for a long time before he dropped the chess piece he had been holding on to the chessboard, and then said: "Father, can we give the capital of Duanguo to Tang? Let's capture the south of Duanguo and occupy Duanguo.
After going south, we can cooperate with the three major armies that are at war with the Liang Kingdom and completely destroy the Liang Kingdom."
Zhuge Liang showed a surprised expression after hearing the prince's answer.
Zhao Changqing laughed and said: "What a good prince, then my father will ask you again, why did you give up the capital of Duanguo to Tang?"
The prince said solemnly: "Father, to put it bluntly, this capital city is just a city and county. Although it is the richest town in Duan Kingdom, the value of the towns in the south is far more important than a capital city.
The reason why the Tang State spared no effort to attack the capital of Duan State was to capture the capital city. The allure of the capital city was enough to restrain their nerves, so why bother to gain a capital with them and abandon several towns in the south of Duan State?
According to what Haichen learned, the southern towns of Duan Kingdom are rich in horses, which can enrich our cavalry and provide assistance for the future development of cavalry. However, what can a capital city bring to us? It is far less valuable than the southern towns. "
Zhao Changqing stood up and said to the prince: "Okay, I will do what you want."
The prince was frightened when he heard the sound, and quickly stood up and said: "Father, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. I am talking lightly..."
Before Zhao Changqing could speak, Zhuge Liang spoke. He said: "You are the prince of a country, the heir apparent, and the foundation of the country. Who in the world dares to say that you are a man of low words?"
The prince bowed to Zhuge Liang and said: "Teacher is right, but after all, my disciple is still young, so I'm afraid..."
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Prince, there is no need to worry. When your Majesty was your age, he had already begun to rely on Shen Wansan to accumulate his own strength. Your Majesty, your Majesty, I also believe in your judgment."
He knew the emperor's intention, and wanted to take advantage of national events to train the prince from an early age.
Moreover, what the prince said was indeed quite similar to their strategic intention towards Duan Guo from the beginning.
Zhao Changqing said: "Leave it to the cabinet to draft the decree, and let Chen Qingzhi wait for the opportunity to seize the opportunity to capture all the important military towns in southern Duanguo."
Zhuge Liang bowed solemnly and said: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zhao Changqing looked at the prince and said: "Go down first and write down the plan mentioned today on paper. Father will go and see it later."
The prince bowed and said, "It's my father."
After he retreated, Zhao Changqing asked Zhuge Liang: "Kong Ming, what do you think of the prince?"
Zhuge said excitedly: "Your Majesty has a successor!"
The evaluation he gave is already very high.
Zhao Changqing is obviously very satisfied. After all, as a father, he likes others to praise his children, which gives him a sense of pride in his heart.
He spoke again: "If the prince succeeds to the throne in the future, what do you think is the most he can accomplish?"
Zhuge Liang replied without thinking: "Create another prosperous age."
"Another prosperous age?"
Zhao Changqing fell into deep thought.
Perhaps, the world can be conquered by oneself, but it is absolutely impossible to rule it by oneself.
Because from the beginning to the end, what I have been thinking about is to dominate the world and at the same time obtain enough stupidity points to help myself live forever.
In the future, the burden of governing the world will still fall on the prince.
After Zhuge Liang retreated, he immediately sent his masters to deliver the imperial edict to Chen Qingzhi as quickly as possible.
Zhao Changqing came to the East Palace to visit Jing Ke.
Since the last time he was seriously injured and dying, Jing Ke can barely stand and walk, but he still can't lift his strength, and has lost all his cultivation.
Zhao Changqing looked at Jing Ke writing on the sand table and saw that he had written several fonts, so he asked: "What are these words?"
Jing Ke, who was immersed in writing, was shocked when he heard the sound. He quickly knelt down to the emperor and said: "I see your majesty and wish..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Changqing stopped him and said: "I'm injured, so there's no need to be polite. You know, I always don't hesitate to use this common courtesy."
Jing Ke nodded and said, "Why are you free to come here today?"
Zhao Changqing laughed and scolded: "Why, can't I come and see you?"
Jing Ke suddenly panicked and quickly said with a smile: "I haven't seen your Majesty for a long time, but I am a little excited to see you today."
Zhao Changqing shook his head and asked with a smile: "You haven't told me yet what the words you wrote mean. I only know one word 'sword', and I don't know the rest."
Jing Ke said: "Actually, these are all characters for sword, but I don't blame Your Majesty for this, because these characters are all characters produced in other countries during the Five Hegemons and Warring States Periods. At their peak, a word for 'sword' would have
How to write the Nineteenth Middle School."
"Nineteen ways to write it?" Zhao Changqing was shocked and couldn't believe it: "There are nineteen ways to write the word 'sword'?"
Jing Ke nodded and said: "Your Majesty, if you include ancient characters, it is estimated that there will be more than twenty ways to write a sword character."
Zhao Changqing thought for a moment and said: "There are nineteen ways to write the word "Sword", and they all don't recognize each other. After I unify the six countries, I will abolish all these miscellaneous words and leave only one. How can I do that?
Not happy!"
Jing Ke was stunned. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty is still far-sighted!"
Zhao Changqing has already made a plan in his heart. After unifying the world in the future, he must unify the writing system of the world. This matter must be an extremely foolish thing from a contemporary perspective. After all, writing is the source of literature, leaving only one
The use of words is a kind of harm to literature.
Scholars all over the world will certainly not agree.
However, this matter is conducive to the unification of future generations.
You can earn stupidity points and also think about future generations. Isn't this a killing two birds with one stone?
