Mid-October of the first year of the lunar calendar.

Zhao Hongqing arrived in Ningzhou and met with the King of Tang.

"The last general, Zhao Hongji, pays homage to His Majesty!"

The King of Tang, wearing armor, came to pick him up with all the civil and military officials from Ningzhou.

Zhao Hongqing helped him up and pretended to be angry: "Brother! How long have we not seen each other? Why are we so separated?!"

Hearing the sound, Zhao Hongji smiled bitterly.

He whispered in the emperor's ear: "It's not about birth. After all, you are already the emperor now. You must establish your prestige. Moreover, I am in the position of Prince Tang. I am really in the spotlight and must be seen by outsiders.

I strongly agree with you becoming the emperor, and I don’t have any unreasonable thoughts."

Zhao Hongqing shook his head helplessly.

His brother is good at everything, but he is too cautious.

It seems that since returning from the expedition with his father, he has become cautious in everything.

When he hides his identity and turns into a Jianghu person to fight the enemy, he is always cautious.

He gave most of the plundered resources to himself.

"From now on, you and I, brothers, will rule the country together, so why should we prioritize things?"

What Zhao Hongqing said is true.

He never treated his brother as a minister.

He also unconditionally trusts his brother and will not do anything rebellious.

There should be no pair of brothers in this world like these two brothers. No matter how many years have passed and the world has changed, their love is still there.

"Your Majesty, please don't say this kind of thing again in the future. I can't bear it. I am only willing to stay in Ningzhou and guard the country for Your Majesty."

Zhao Hongji immediately knelt down on one knee when he heard the emperor's voice.

He was surprised by the emperor's words.

I don't know if he is testing it or what.

But no matter what, you must make your position clear first.

"stand up!"

Zhao Hongqing helped his brother up again and said helplessly: "Let's discuss the war first."

"No!" Zhao Hongji replied in a deep voice.

The emperor sat on a tall horse and personally inspected the military camp. After letting all the officers and soldiers in the army witness his arrival, he went to the military tent without stopping to discuss the recent wars with the generals.

Overall, it's pretty good.

Before he even sent out troops, the demon army had already begun to storm several cities at the border of Ningzhou.

Zhao Hongji spent all his efforts to drive the demon clan out of the Great Wall.

In order to prevent the war from spreading to the Great Wall, he deliberately stationed all the general tents outside the border.

"Your Majesty, the 100,000 troops of the Demon Clan's vanguard were all captured by our army in the Battle of the Great Wall. Most of them were soldiers and generals, so there is nothing to worry about. There are just a lot of them. How should we arrange them properly? I hope your Majesty will give you a charter." Zhao

Hongji cupped his fists and said to the emperor sitting in the first place.

Zhao Hongqing did not hesitate at all and said instantly: "The demon clan is different from the human clan. If there is an internal conflict in our human clan, we can keep the prisoners. But the demon clan is different. After all, they are different from our clan and can never be of the same mind, so

, kill all the 100,000 demon army prisoners."

"No!" Zhao Hongji said.

In the military tent, all the soldiers felt that it was unexpected and reasonable.

In the last battle with the demon clan, so many soldiers of the demon clan were captured, but the Supreme Emperor did not deal with them.

Instead, let them return to their hometowns after the war is over.

But when we arrived at Xin Huang's place, there was no room for negotiation.

Kill them all directly.

Really domineering.

"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to report, and I hope your Majesty can agree to it." Zhao Hongji said respectfully.

Zhao Hongqing said: "Brother has something to do, but it doesn't matter."

Zhao Hongji nodded, faced the many generals in the tent, and slowly said: "Everyone should know that the demon clan broke through the Great Wall and captured the three cities in Ningzhou, but all were massacred by the demon clan.

For the demon clan, our human race is their best spiritual power to cultivate. They have never been charitable to our human race.

Now, we have finally contained the demon army's edge, and at this time, Your Majesty, led the army to come. It is time for us to take the initiative to declare war on the demon clan.

Facing the demon clan, we cannot be merciful."

After a pause, he focused his gaze on the emperor, "Your Majesty, I suggest that based on your order, we issue a demon-killing order. All demons that are unfriendly and hostile to our human race will be killed without mercy!

As a descendant of the human race, everyone is responsible for killing the demon race!"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a huge boulder sinking into a lake, setting off a wave tens of thousands of feet high.

The whole military tent was filled with heated discussions.

Demon-killing order?

This is a desperate plan!

So cruel!

At the beginning, the strategic policy set by the Supreme Emperor against the demon clan was mainly to focus on Zhao'an. If there was any abnormality in the demon clan, he would send a large army to suppress it.

At that time, the Supreme Emperor had suppressed the demon clan to such an extent that they could not raise their heads. He never thought of issuing an order to kill demons.

I still hope that the two ethnic groups should adhere to the principle of non-aggression and harmonious coexistence.

Therefore, the new emperor should oppose the proposal of King Tang, right?

After all, once this is done, from now on, there will be no chance for reconciliation between the demon race and the human race.

However, the next moment, what the new emperor said shocked them deeply.

After hearing what King Tang said, the new emperor immediately stood up and said fiercely: "Brother is right! The demon clan has been coveting our human clan for too long, and they will never change their ambition to invade our human clan.

Therefore, there is absolutely no need to be merciful when dealing with monsters.

According to the order, the demon clan has been messing with our human race for millions of years. The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors have succeeded each other and finally made the human race stronger and stronger. However, today's demon clan attempts to invade and enslave our human race. This is intolerable!

Special order to kill demons..."

Everyone was completely confused.

This war hasn't officially started yet, but the demon race has already been listed as the human race's unrelenting enemy?

Having said that, your Majesty is actually right.

The demon race has never really given up on the idea of ​​not attacking the human race.

Every time the human race is in chaos, there is always the shadow of the demon race behind it.

It's time for a great reckoning.

A few days later.

Zhao Changqing, who is thousands of miles away, is still living in seclusion in the imperial mausoleum.

At this time, Qi Jiguang came to the imperial mausoleum with the order to kill Hu that had just been issued by the imperial court. Outside the retreat place of the Supreme Emperor, he told him the original text of the order to kill Hu.

It has to be said that Zhao Changqing was also quite shocked by this incident.

He sighed slightly, "Qing'er is still too reckless in doing things. The demon clan's background is not as bad as we thought. This killing order will worsen the relationship between the two clans to an irretrievable point.

I had this idea before, but it was obvious that the time was not right. Anyway, since it has been done, let him go ahead and do it. As long as we old guys don't die, the human race will not be in chaos.

Also, send someone to inform the court that the demons of Qingqiu Tushan have been in harmony with the human race for generations, and must not disturb them. In addition, some demon clans that have reconciled with the human race must also be carefully screened out, and they must not all follow the demon killing order.

What is written is done.”

"promise!"
