Dayu Execution Officer, begins to torture the demon girl's fiancee

"The Two Rivers Navy has conquered the State of Wei!"

Zhao Cuo sat in the tent of the Chinese army, his eyes glanced brightly and sharply at the generals present, and all those who met his gaze would bow their heads unconsciously.

"Total victory is imminent. The people of the six countries have endured wars and chaos for too long. My royal master is definitely not fighting for war, but for the peace of the world. There is no delay in restoring the southwest."

Mr. Zhao said calmly, they are now in Changsu Pass in Qi State, this is their first victory after several days of siege.

It wasn't that he was dazzled by the victory, but that the suspense of the battle situation had indeed disappeared, and the victory or defeat was only a matter of time.

What he has to do now is to completely defeat the deposed emperor in Qi.

"After the Xisha Kingdom saw the mission sent by this general, they also withdrew their troops yesterday. The enemy army is now fighting alone."

General Zhao said in a calm tone. Actually, he still had something to say, for example, the Six Kingdoms had been separated from Emperor Yongzhao.

"Generals, there is no need to continue the conservative siege strategy. The next step is to force the rebels to fight us."

Now the only thing that can stop the southern army is the one hundred thousand rebels in the hands of the deposed emperor. This is the only threat.

As long as he wiped out the enemy army in Qi, he could directly write to the capital, declaring the basic victory of the Pingnan Campaign.

After the Six Kingdoms are gone and completely lose their resistance, he can gradually control them, and the governance after the battle is also the top priority.

"Great General! Our army has a combat strength of 25 and is fully capable of encircling the rebels."

Zhao Yuanqing nodded in agreement.

They chose to attack the city frontally these days out of caution.

Now that the Kingdom of Wei is restored and the Xisha Kingdom has withdrawn its troops, the Southern Army no longer has to worry about any changes that could threaten itself.

"Since Emperor Fei likes to defend the city, we will leave him a city and let him defend it to the end."

Zhao wrongly patted the Southwest map behind him.

"The main force of the rebel army is now in Yancheng."

He picked up the wolf hair and circled a place on the map.

"The enemy's next three cities are the capital of King Qi. We will set up an encirclement circle around this, and attack the city all the way to consume their energy. Finally, we will fight in the capital of Qi."

Mr. Zhao explained his strategy simply and clearly. This is a draft based on the current situation, and what he said is to work together to perfect it.

"General..."

The discussion in the Chinese military tent suddenly became louder.

Bandit Zhao had given an order that everyone in the Chinese military account could speak freely, and even if the strategy implemented at the end of the ceremony was wrong, the proposer would not be held accountable.

From a certain point of view, he thinks that he still has the right way to run the army. The commander himself may not have the ingenuity to win every battle, but he must be able to employ people, which is the key to victory.

"This battle has reached its final juncture. Please don't be afraid of hardships and fight for Great Yu."

After Zhao Cuo agreed on the offensive strategy, he said in a more emphatic tone.

"Remember the general's lesson!"

All the generals in the tent stood up and saluted him.

At this moment, there was a sudden movement outside, and a handsome soldier came in.

He stepped forward quickly and whispered a few words in Lord Zhao's ear, and Bandit Zhao stood up immediately.

"Come in quickly."

"Yes!"

After Zhao Cuo watched the soldiers go out, he also stepped up to the curtain of the big tent.

The generals of the Southern Army looked at each other, and quickly formed two teams behind Mr. Zhao, bowing their heads.

This is a barracks!Who else can let the mighty General Zhao greet him in person?I'm afraid it's an angel from the capital.

"Minister Zhao Cuo respectfully invites the Empress Dowager to be safe."

The little father-in-law bowed to the outside of the tent and saluted.

This is a group of palace people dressed in dark purple robes.

They looked like normal men, except that their beards and hair were thinner, but their identities were revealed as soon as they opened their mouths.

"Sheng Gong'an!" The leading middle-aged man said in a sharp voice, "General Zhao received the order by mistake."

He held a black silk book in both hands.

This is the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager, and these palace servants came here to represent the imperial power.

Even if it is Zhao Cuo, he has to be the devil queen in front of him now, and the greeting just now is also directed at the bad woman.

"Zhao received the order by mistake."

"Shangyu."

The palace man who delivered the decree opened Yi's decree and said.

"Great General Zhao Cuo has made great achievements many times since he led the army, regaining Huainan and southern Xinjiang, and now he has taken the South China Sea..."

This East Palace Yizhi is a formal Yizhi. Judging from the extremely long words of praise to Lord Zhao, it is to be sealed.

"The south will be settled and a thousand wastes are waiting to be rejuvenated. General Zhao is ordered to open the mansion and carefully appoint the newly returned officials!"

The Chinese army tent returned to tranquility.

All the generals of the Southern Army shrank their eyes almost at the same time.

Among them, Zhao Yuanqing, the chief soldier, took a breath of air-conditioning directly.

'The empress dowager actually handed over the appointment of officials to the general? '

They were all shocked in their hearts. It is the power of the general to establish a mansion and establish a tooth. Under the structure of the master and the weak, the mansion of the general will even become a small court and control the court.

The key to opening the government is the right to recruit subordinate officials and the right to appoint and remove personnel, which can form a military and political system that is relatively independent of the imperial court and has strong personal attributes.

This time, Queen Mother Zhao not only asked Zhao to open the mansion by mistake, but also directly put most of the south under the jurisdiction of the General's Mansion, giving the power to appoint and dismiss officials.

"The south of the Bajiang River will have the surname Zhao in the future? I am afraid that officials in the south will not know the court and only recognize General Zhao."

The generals of the Southern Army were confused.

They are also included in the category of Southern officials.

In other words, even if this battle is over, they are still generals under Zhao Cuo.

"General Zhao quickly accept the order."

Changing faces is an art.

The palace man who read out the decree put on a flattering expression almost instantly.

While bending over, he carefully held up the decree and handed it forward, not daring to take any airs.

"Thank you for coming here from the capital."

Zhao Cuo is still unhurried.

To him, the opening of the Grand General's Mansion was justified by changing the name of the exercise of power.

Before that, he had already got his hands on the power to appoint officials, and he directly let Ji Ming take care of Huainan and Southern Xinjiang, but now he can skip the process of going to the court.

"Don't dare, we are all doing things for the empress dowager, no matter how hard it is."

Several inner eunuchs laughed along.

Their attitude towards thief Zhao is much more respectful than the generals of the southern army.

Without him, what thief Zhao did in the palace is not a secret, and most of these people know the relationship between the empress dowager and him.

"That's exactly the case. A certain soldier is serving the country by leading troops to fight, and you are also contributing to the country when you go out of the palace."

Zhao Cuo said gently and amiably.

"Dare not to be compared with the Great General..."

The general of the southern army in the tent still did not dare to look up at this time.

They were already silent at this time, the attitude of the palace officials who delivered the decree shocked them more than the content of the Yi decree, and the people in the inner palace also respected General Zhao so much!

Palace people are directly under the orders of the Empress Dowager, and generally have limited contact with the foreign court, so there is no need to take the risk of currying favor with the ministers, it should be the courtiers who please them, why is it the other way around?

"Come here, take your father-in-law to rest in the city, don't neglect."

Master Zhao held Yizhi and gave instructions to his subordinates.

"Then I'll retire first."

The visitor from the palace spoke humbly and authentically.

"One more thing."

Zhao made a mistake and looked back at the general of the southern army.

"This battle depends entirely on the lives of the soldiers. Before you leave tomorrow, I will write a statement. You can bring it back to Beijing and play it directly in the East Palace. There will be no mistakes."

When he was talking about business, he put away his politeness and directly used a commanding tone, which was beyond doubt.

"Follow the orders of the general!"

All the inner eunuchs hurriedly bowed and saluted.

They really have no affiliation with Lord Zhao. As members of the inner palace, they only obey the Queen Mother Zhao.

But when General Zhao was in the palace, he was always able to speak well, let alone ordering them, Aunt Feiwu had to be obedient when she came.

"Go and rest. If you have anything to say, you can come and tell me. I won't embarrass you."

After sending away the visitors from the palace, he turned to look at the generals of the southern army.

"My subordinates, I would like to thank the general for asking the empress dowager for credit."

The General of the Southern Army obviously saluted with a little gratitude.

General Zhao is a capable person, and he will report to you if he has meritorious service. Some generals love to do false meritorious deeds.

In the way of leading the army, the commander can show his attitude of loving the soldiers like sons without eating and living with the soldiers, but he must let the soldiers know that he will have meat to eat with him.

"You don't have to be like this, generals. The general will see the merits of you, and the empress dowager will definitely not treat the heroes slowly."

Zhao Cuo said with a straight face.

"General Renyi!"

The generals of the Southern Army immediately sighed.

"All the gentlemen have heard what the Empress Dowager Yi said. This general is entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and I am afraid of betraying the trust of the Empress Dowager. Please also work together with me in the future."

He also revealed the meaning that the Great General's Mansion will also reuse heroes after it is opened.

"Willing to die for General Zhao!"

Zhao Cuo talked with the generals again before inviting them out.

He himself did not leave, and sat down on the big chair in the Chinese military tent again, looking at Yizhi in his hand with a pensive expression.

Something was wrong, how did the villain begin to hand over crucial powers to him?He now feels that his words are more authoritative in the southern army than the court's will.

"I want to support the empress dowager to ascend the throne after the war in the south is over. It's not a good thing for me to have too much prestige..."

The little man frowned unconsciously.

Although he didn't tell the female devil about his plan, she definitely knew about it, so why didn't he cooperate with him!

Anyone with a discerning eye in the Dayu Dynasty can see that the Chu family's power cannot be preserved. Emperor Wu Cheng, a puppet emperor who has never been to the court, will be abolished sooner or later. The key lies in the successor...

"History has reached the present point, and it's almost time for a powerful minister to usurp the throne. In the eyes of many people, I am the one who steals the country, right?"

Thief Zhao is convinced that no matter who has reached this stage of power, they will basically seize the artifact either actively or forcedly.

If it weren't for the powerful heroine in the DPRK, his pressure would probably be much greater than it is now, and everyone would think that he wanted to usurp the country.

But now the fact is that the empress dowager is not an existence that will be shaken by powerful officials, so the future of the Dayu Dynasty is in doubt.

"Sister Lan completely handed over the south to me, which is not conducive to the unification of the court. After the war, power must be returned to the center."

Zhao Cuo was dissatisfied with the bad woman who allowed him to open a house.

Isn't this doing him a disservice?He wants the empress dowager to be emperor, so it is enough for him to maintain his power within the scope of the general.

His power is too strong, and there is no guarantee that some generals will persuade him to go further. He has wiped out the seven kingdoms' illustrious martial arts, which is definitely enough to usurp power and seize the throne. This is unprecedented in 400 years.

"Forget it for now, the south is in my hands for the time being, and we can wait until we return to Beijing."

Mr. Zhao stood up with a long breath.

Inexplicably, there was a sense of uneasiness in his heart that a big event was about to happen.

This nervousness does not come from the southern battlefield, but from the capital. He still doesn't know the whereabouts of Prince Chu Feng.

"The empress dowager said that the king of Han was harboring evil intentions. Was the prince's assassination related to him? Why didn't Sister Lan deal with him..."

General Zhao is full of doubts. The current situation seems to be going well, even if the court will change after the end of the Southern War.

He feels that he is unstoppable, but can the matter of helping the empress dowager ascend the throne be smooth sailing, and what are the hidden resistance?

At this time, he suddenly felt that victory in the war was the best way to solve the problem.

"If I bring the Southern Army into Beijing, no one will be able to stop me, including the bad woman..."

Zhao Cuo had this dangerous idea in his mind, but he knew that he couldn't do this unless he had to. Maybe he would really be "added in a yellow robe".

"I seem to be thinking too far? But the days of triumphant return to Beijing are only two months away, and we are really going to get to this point..."

The little father-in-law glanced at Minggong.

The Dragon Vein Worm is very aggressive at this time.

Dayu's reunification is a foregone conclusion, if he does not change the world, he will be swallowed by the inflated fierce gu after the battle.

"Write a secret letter for the secret guards of the Eastern Palace to send to the capital. Let's vent our anger with the bad woman. There can be no mistakes in this matter."

Zhao thief secretly made up his mind that the situation in the south is no longer a problem for him, the most important thing is the ultimate goal to be achieved after the war.

"Take Emperor Yongzhao within a month, and then gradually stabilize the new homeland. I will be able to return to Beijing before summer."

When he thought about it carefully, he had really done a remarkable career, enough to leave his name in history.

Dayu's more than 300 years of semi-split situation was ended by him.

It even expanded its territory and seized the South China Sea.

"Six Kingdoms, Huainan, Nanjiang, and the South China Sea were all brought back by me for Sister Lan..."

Zhao Cuo felt a little proud when he thought about it. He is not a soft eater. A quarter of Dayu's land is his dowry.

"What are you having fun with?"

The cold and immature female voice rang in the ears of the little father-in-law.

He turned his head to look, and saw Chu Biezhi with a pale and childish face standing aside, his black eyebrows slightly frowned.

Looking carefully, he could find that there was a red mark on the white and delicate swan neck of Master Guoshi, which should be the reason for her cold face.

"The meal has been delivered to your account, why don't you go back to eat? What are you doing here alone?"

Xiao Biezhi asked a little unhappy.

"Of course I'm waiting for you."

The little father-in-law hugged her with a smile.

Regardless of the little beauty's resistance, he placed her on the map on the table, her petite body spanning the Seven Kingdoms.

General Zhao was very majestic. He fought all the way from Huainan to the South China Sea and then counterattacked to the state of Qi.
