Chapter 601: No Weak Supreme Emperor
After the battle, Zhao Changlin did not follow Zhao Hongji back to take charge of the army and return to the court.
Instead, he chose to be stationed in Yanzhou.
In itself, his previous fiefdom was in Yanzhou.
I have a relatively good understanding of the situation here.
After Zhao Yuan learned about this, he just smiled and said nothing more.
However, in my heart, I was already bursting with gratitude to my imperial uncle.
The reason is the same.
He knew very well why Uncle Huang stayed in Yanzhou.
It's because Zhao Hongji is stationed in Yunzhou, and he is stationed in Yanzhou, so he can always pay attention to the movements of the demon clan for him.
After all, his surname is still Zhao, and he is thinking wholeheartedly about this country.
Unlike some aristocratic families, they are full of bad intentions.
After Zhao Hongji's troops returned to the court, Zhao Yuan personally greeted him ten miles outside the city as a solemn sign.
We have fought three major battles with the demon race, and each time they ended with the victory of the human race. What does this mean?
This shows that the human race is strong enough to serve as the 'primitive leader of all things'.
After welcoming the victorious army back in triumph, there were some things that Zhao Yuan needed to tell Zhao Hongji alone.
So, the two of them came to the Xuanzheng Hall.
Inside the palace.
Zhao Yuan personally poured him a cup of tea, and the two sat side by side.
He asked: "Uncle, this battle lasted five years. Have you encountered any trouble in the past five years?"
Zhao Hongji shook his head, "Everything is fine. If it weren't for His Majesty's strong support, I'm afraid it wouldn't be that easy to win this battle."
Zhao Yuan sighed: "You don't know the difficulties of being a master when you are not a master. Now I understand why my father said that he regretted issuing the order to kill the monsters. It is not an option to keep fighting the monsters. The lives of the people will be even more difficult.
Our human race is not like the demon race. They are naturally cruel and pay attention to whoever survives to the end will be the master of the family. This kind of life will make the demon race not pay attention to casualties, and every ordinary person in the demon race can become a warrior.
But our human race is different. One is the vast territory, and the other is that the base is too large. Our monks are equal in number to the overall number of the monster race, but in addition to cultivators, we also have ordinary people.
Most people have no power to restrain a chicken. Under this situation, our Wei Dynasty cannot compare with the demon clan in terms of overall combat strength. This battle will at least make the people of Kyushu tighten their pants.
Belt, I’ve lived a hard life for several years.”
Zhao Hongji is a complete militant, "Your Majesty, if we don't fight this battle, I'm afraid that the human race will become more and more difficult in the future. I once heard your grandpa say that in the distant ancient times, that is, the period of the Three Sovereigns and the Five Emperors, the human race suffered miserably.
Monsters and even alien races were slaughtered, and the human race at that time was worse than pigs and dogs.
If we want people all over the world to live a stable life, we can only fight with open hands and feet, and we must fight vigorously. It doesn't matter if the country is destroyed, we can still build after it is destroyed, but if we let it go
If the demon clan invades the human land, I'm afraid it won't just be as simple as smashing it to pieces."
Zhao Yuan nodded, "My uncle and I have the same ideas. When this war entered the third year, many civil and military ministers began to come to me to talk about peace talks with the demon clan, but they were all suppressed by me.
Came down.
Back then, before King Changlin took the oath to go on the expedition, I told him that the monsters he wanted to fight this time would not dare to go south for at least fifty years. Now, this victory can be considered achieved.
I have never had a good impression of the demon clan, but because of this, we cannot let the human race completely sever ties with the demon clan. We still want peace. No common people in the world are willing to fight."
Before the battle ended, Zhao Yuan received a letter from his imperial uncle, saying that Zhao Hongji's political stance was somewhat dangerous and that he was a complete militant.
After this battle is over, try your best to let him give up this idea.
Today's human race can afford to be tortured, but it can't be tortured all the time.
After Zhao Hongji heard the emperor's words, he frowned and said, "Your Majesty, you want to say that it is time for the current country to rest for a few years?"
Zhao Yuan nodded, "I heard that after returning to Yunzhou, my uncle intends to lead 200,000 elite cavalry deep into the hinterland of the demon clan to complete the achievements that General Bai Qi completed back then?"
Zhao Hongji said without concealment: "I do have this idea, but I need your Majesty's support. Your Majesty should know that your uncle has never wanted to do anything in his life, he just wants to leave a name in history.
In the future, when people mention Zhao Hongji, the first thing they think of is the God of War, not the descendants of the clan."
Zhao Yuan put on a wry smile, not knowing what to say.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Uncle, actually you don't need to be in a hurry. You really don't need to be in a hurry. I promise you that I will definitely have the opportunity to lead an army to conquer the demon clan in the future, but not now. After five years of fighting, it is really about to end."
It has impoverished the country.
My uncle may not know something. Although in the eyes of the outside world, our Wei Dynasty has a strong army and a strong treasury. However, it suffers from lack of background. How many years has it only taken since the Wei Dynasty unified the world?
Moreover, in the past few years, wars have occurred from time to time. If the Supreme Emperor had not exhausted all his efforts, the human race would only be a very weak existence now. We should take a few years of rest.
According to my prediction, after this battle, the demon clan will not be able to go south for at least forty years. At most, they will send a small army to harass the border. Taking advantage of this time, we should lie dormant for a few years and work hard to develop the military.
Raise your martial arts skills to several levels and strive to produce two or three heavenly masters.
At that time, it will be time for us to launch a general attack on the demon clan."
Zhao Hongji said "hmm", feeling a little unhappy, but he was still obeying the emperor's order.
In response, Zhao Yuan could only shake his head and smile bitterly.
After rewarding the three armies, Zhao Yuan led the army and went to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen.
Kunlun Mountain was too far away from Luoyang, and the trip back and forth took too long, so he was afraid that something might go wrong.
That’s why I went to Mount Tai to pray for Zen.
Mount Tai Jade Emperor Peak.
Zhao Yuan climbed up in one breath.
Here, he met the national master Xuan Lingzi and had a long talk with him.
I learned a lot about the past of the Supreme Emperor.
"To be honest, from the perspective of a poor man, Your Majesty is the person closest to the Supreme Emperor. You are as decisive as the Supreme Emperor, not afraid of anything, and have full kingly spirit." Xuan Lingzi was not complimenting.
This emperor really looks so much like Zhao Changqing.
It's almost like it was carved out of the same mold.
Not only looks, but also personality.
For example, the previous Xuanwumen Incident.
"I have spent my whole life just wanting people to say one word when they mention me." Zhao Yuan sighed with emotion.
"What are you talking about?" Xuan Lingzi asked curiously.
"In my entire life, I will never be weak to the Supreme Emperor."
