On February 10th, as if it had been agreed upon, various academies issued statements one after another, which immediately attracted the attention of all parties.
The imperial court never expected that this would happen, that the academy would dare to accuse the new king.
If Yamazaki were here, he would explain it to them.
The academy is here for its reputation, not to mention someone trying to instigate it behind the scenes.
For example, people from Dawu, people with different intentions, or people competing for the academy.
In short, there are some people who are afraid of chaos in the country, and they hope to see chaos.
As for how far those people can see, God knows.
…
The power of the academy is quite huge, especially there are many seniors, so I can only persuade them first.
As a result, all the old guys were very stubborn, and many even pointed at their noses and cursed.
On February 15, during the mid-month court meeting, the new King Zhao was so angry that he lost his temper directly in court and punished a group of officials who came from the academy to express their attitude.
But instead of stopping the momentum, more people turned against him.
Not only these, but at the court meeting on March 1, a new issue was added, that is, enclosing land to build Buddhist temples.
All the land around Zhao Capital has its owner, let alone within Zhao Capital.
The new King of Zhao was expropriating the so-called ownerless land, but after conquering it, a bunch of people came out who owned the title deeds to various pieces of land.
The new King of Zhao could not refute it, because when he escaped from the Zhao capital, he did not take many documents with him, and now there is no way to check them.
In the middle of wrangling, the new king of Zhou submitted a document to Zhao, requesting a treaty to end the war based on the current boundary.
But the new King Zhao refused and accelerated the reorganization and expedition.
Every time an army was formed, it was sent out to recover cities in various places.
…
On May 1st, the main force of the Zhao army vowed to send troops and rushed directly to the west, aiming directly at the Eastern Route Army camp of the Zhou Dynasty in Dongsheng Shenzhou.
At the same time, various information was sent back to Zhoudu.
Of course there is no recent information here, but seeing that Zhao has changed to a new king, he still insists on fighting.
Although Da Zhou was reluctant, he could only respond passively, which just soothed the restless military morale.
The frontline military power was directly thrown into Zhou Yanyu's hands. She was of sufficient rank and was close.
…
A piece of flying paper fell into the hands of Zhou Yanyu on May 20. Zhou Yanyu was very happy to see it and immediately took Gu Ling'er to the camp to meet up.
This time it was not Da Zhou who bullied others, but people who bullied Da Zhou. Half of the elites of the Imperial Prefecture were directly sent over.
Seeing that his former rivals had become colleagues, Zhou Yanyu ignored the past grudges and settled their grudges with the Imperial Master Zhou over wine.
Anyway, not only did it not hurt Yamazaki, it also encouraged her practice.
…
On June 5, Dongsheng conquered the western part of Shenzhou and reached the camp of the East Route Army of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Zhou Yanyu settled down and asked the guards to invite Grand Master Zhou to come over for discussion.
"Your Highness Princess, do you have any advice?"
"I don't dare to give you advice. Your Majesty the National Preceptor is highly virtuous and highly respected, and is beyond my reach."
"Her Royal Highness the Princess has outstanding meritorious service and outstanding military exploits. Everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty respects her, and I am no exception."
"Master Imperial Master is too modest."
"Her Royal Highness is the one."
"Yes, I, a mountain man, don't have any polite words to say."
"I'm not good at words, and I don't have much left in my stomach."
The old man and the young man looked at each other and laughed together. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
…
Without avoiding Gu Ling'er, Zhou Yanyu explained the tactics, hoping to gain support.
This time, they still traveled tens of millions of miles to carry out beheading tactics, and the target was naturally the capital of Zhao.
The Imperial Master pinched his beard, "It's not that I doubt Your Highness, it's just that I don't think we have a quick way to fight. I wonder if the princess has any trump cards?"
"There are two of them, but one can't talk about it, and the other can only do it. I guarantee that no matter how bad the situation is, you can get away with it."
"Oh, if that's the case, I will accompany Your Highness for a while."
The Imperial Master thought one of them was the magic sword, so he nodded.
He didn't think too much, otherwise he would have figured out that Da Zhao was now Buddhist territory and the magic sword couldn't be used at all.
This was the reason why Da Zhao dared to take action. The monk agreed that if Da Zhou dared to use the magic sword, they would deal with it and surrender absolutely.
Yes, Buddhism is interfering in the war, but it is a fact that the magic sword kills too much.
Buddhism insists on discussing matters, and Taoism can never refute him. Why didn't you ignore it before?
That would be lifting a rock and hitting yourself in the foot.
So, in the end, we had to let it go.
Yamazaki's second strategy was to appeal to heaven, saying that Buddhism had established a Buddhist kingdom in the human world and was oppressing Zhou Dynasty.
In this way, it depends on the Jade Emperor's choice.
If he is reconciled, his position as emperor will really be a show-off.
Originally, the Heavenly Court was the Taoist Heavenly Court.
It is true that Buddhism founded the country, but openly fighting against the Zhou Dynasty means fighting against Taoism.
This is tantamount to a declaration of war. If he still shrinks, who among the entire Taoist disciples will pay attention to him?
What is left in that court? The heavenly soldiers and generals who simply pulled up?
…
Zhou Yanyu still selected 200,000 elite men this time. Before setting off for the expedition, he led his army to burn incense and pray.
Then they drink and smash the bowl, because there is no guarantee that many people will come back alive this time, and they have to fight a tough battle with their opponents.
More than 200,000 bowls were smashed to the ground in a majestic and spectacular scene.
This time, we didn't make many detours and flew straight to Zhao's capital to avoid the main force of Zhao.
Because the other party has the support of Buddhism, these matters are of great importance and can definitely be calculated clearly.
And because the other party knows about it, they can't barge in and have to choose a place.
Not only can it be a place to stay, but it can also be convenient for the opponent to ambush or sneak attack, so that the opponent can come over.
…
The one Yamazaki chose for Zhou Yanyu was outside the mountainous area more than 2,000 miles outside Zhaodu.
Worried that the new Zhao King was eager for quick success, he sent people to ambush in the mountains, and then used thunder pills or even thunder spells to intercept them in the air, causing casualties. Therefore, to fly 10,000 miles away, he had to fly at low altitude on the ground.
All of this was told to the soldiers, but the most important thing was not mentioned because once it was told, it would be figured out.
…
On October 14, the 140th year of the Linghai calendar, after 16 months, Zhou Yanyu led an army of 200,000 to cross 40 million miles and reach the destination.
Camp was set up and repaired, and tents were put up one by one.
Although we only stayed one night, we were close enough that we had to be wary of Zhao’s attacks at night.
Zhou Yanyu ordered the quartermaster to give each person a small jar of wine to mobilize before the battle.
After doing this, although there has not yet been a fight, everyone has already seen the tragic situation of blood flowing all over the mountains tomorrow, and the camp has a tragic atmosphere.
Zhou Yanyu knew she shouldn't laugh, but couldn't help it. She finally cried but she could still cry with a smile.
When I touched my tears, I laughed openly.
In the eyes of others, compared with the heroic spirit of a man who bleeds and sheds no tears, there is another touching sense of heroism.
…
On the other side, the new King Zhao ordered his troops.
Since he abandoned the Tao and turned to Buddhism, the national preceptor has been changed to a monk, and Si Tianjian is also a monk.
They figured out Zhao's military strategy and the exact route. During the evening class, they figured out where to stay and reported it to the new King of Zhao.
…
Thousands of miles away, with the blessing of the talisman elixir, I quickly reached it.
From gathering soldiers to sending out troops to conquer, it took a few hours to reach the destination. It happened to be just after midnight, and it was just in time for a night attack.
Facing the quiet Zhou army camp, the new King of Zhao, who was leading the expedition himself, was not polite and ordered all generals to use thunder pills.
