Chapter 1742 Bai Zhu Zhang Bing [Free]

Of course, anyone with a discerning eye knows that these seven princesses are actually fighting for the supreme throne, and Zhu Shiba is just a bonus to the throne. Just like Wu Sangui couldn't really fight for Chen Yuanyuan, to put it bluntly, if he surrendered to Li Zicheng and guarded Shanhaiguan for Li Zicheng, he would be completely treated as consumables by Li Zicheng, and his troops would fight the Qing Dynasty until they were exhausted.

Only by surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, and in order to win the world as quickly as possible and defeat Li Zicheng, the Qing Dynasty would definitely spend a lot of money to buy horse bones and make use of people like Wu Sangui who surrendered. Therefore, surrendering to the Qing Dynasty would bring greater benefits. Chen Yuanyuan was actually just an excuse for Wu Sangui to cover up his true purpose, or it might just be something made up by later generations to write novels.

But people just love this kind of drama where a man is willing to risk his life for a beautiful woman, so the Rebellion of the Seven Princes became a battle between eight princesses to conquer the world for Zhu Shiba, which was full of drama and deeply loved by the people.

Although among all the princesses, the Crown Princess was legitimately enthroned and held the greatest power, the other seven princesses also knew this, so in order to resist the Crown Princess, they united closely and did not give their opponents a chance to defeat them one by one.

In addition, among the seven princesses, there is the eighth princess. Although she is the youngest, she is an extraordinary genius. The soldiers she leads are victorious in every battle. No general in the court can compare with the eighth princess.

So although the overall military strength of both sides is actually equal, the Crown Princess actually has more troops, and she also has a solid fortress city like the Imperial Capital. However, there are too many talented people on their side who are not good at fighting and are a drag on the team. As a result, the Crown Princess was defeated and committed suicide, and the Imperial Capital was captured by the coalition forces.

The remaining seven princesses initially elected the third princess to succeed the throne because she was the weakest among all. Then they left only the imperial capital to her, and the rest of the empire was divided up among the six princesses.

As a result, the disaster of the entire Baisong Empire did not end at all, and it fell into a 10-year-long melee among the six kings. The reason for the melee among the six kings was that the third princess was the weakest and had nothing except the imperial capital. She could only stay in the imperial capital and watch the show, waiting for the strongest princess to eliminate all opponents and eventually become the final winner.

In the end, amidst all kinds of conspiracies, alliances, and backstabbing, the princesses were defeated and killed or imprisoned one after another, until the eighth princess, with her unparalleled military talent, defeated all the conspiracies and schemes, and arrived at the capital with an army of tens of billions. Although the fourth and fifth princesses were still alive at this time, they only had about one billion soldiers left. They could only rely on the third princess, who was still the empress, to unite and defend the imperial capital in despair.

At this time, everyone firmly believed that the war among the six kings had come to an end, and the eighth princess was about to become the real empress and push the Baisong Empire to another peak.

At this time, something no one expected happened. Zhu Shiba, who had followed the three princesses for ten years and was now 34 years old and had reached the peak of a man's physical, mental and intellectual abilities, suddenly found the three princesses and asked them to hand over the 10 billion troops to him to command. He said he had a way to defend the imperial capital.

The three princesses naturally didn't believe it, but at this time the Third Princess's troops had completely exhausted their morale, and their generals were basically dead. More importantly, no one dared to lead the army to fight against the invincible Eighth Princess.

Complete defeat is inevitable.

"Since our heads are destined to fly high, why not let Zhu Bai lead the troops, so that we can leave our names in history!" said the Queen. At this time, Zhu Shiba already had a new name, Zhu Bai, which was given to him by the third princess. The word "Bai" naturally came from the words on his head.

The other two princesses did not refute. They had already given up completely. Besides, Zhu Bai was so handsome, why should they reject him?

Therefore, the three not only did not refuse, but even gave the master part of the Baisong Empire's unique "Bai Shou Jing" to Zhu Bai. After all, if you want to lead the army, you must be a marshal who can control the power of the "Bai Shou Jing" in all soldiers. Otherwise, you can't lead the army at all. Even the royal secret book was given away directly. It can be seen that these three have completely given up treatment.

Then Zhu Bai, who was on the battlefield for the first time, directly led an army of one billion to guard the imperial capital. Everyone inside and outside the city regarded him as a joke. The eighth princess even announced a ten-day ceasefire as a gift to her beloved Zhu Bai.

Of course, according to the later recollections of some people who had personally experienced the war, the reason for the 10-day ceasefire was that the fighting had lasted for 10 years and the economy of the entire empire had almost completely collapsed. It was difficult to supply food and grass. The siege of the city by an army of tens of billions looked mighty and majestic, but the amount of food and grass consumed was astronomical. The eighth princess was actually short of food and grass at the time, and a forced siege without sufficient food might lead to the complete collapse of the army.

That's why they called it giving face to the beauty, but in fact they were waiting for food and supplies to be delivered from the rear.

Zhu Bai took advantage of these precious 10 days to start unifying the army. No one knew what he did, but it only took him 10 days to completely regain the morale of the army and make these one billion proud women willing to obey the orders of a man like him.

More importantly, during these 10 days, Zhu Bai submitted a famous memorial to the three princesses, titled "The Unbeatable Men Memorial". In this memorial, Zhu Bai argued in detail the advantages of male soldiers, and believed that the combat power of one male soldier was equivalent to that of five female soldiers, and the combat power of one billion male soldiers was equivalent to that of 5 billion female soldiers.

There are more than 300 billion people in the imperial capital, 120 billion of whom are men of marriageable age. However, they are all oppressed by their families and live a life worse than pigs and dogs.

If the imperial court is willing to recruit 30 billion men as soldiers and at the same time liberate these men so that they have the same rights as women, then these men will be able to unleash a combat power equivalent to that of 300 billion female soldiers for their own freedom, and the imperial court will also be able to rely on the extra power to continue to stalemate with the eighth princess.

Although the entire court regarded this certificate as a joke at the time, the empress had already made a desperate decision to let a man be a general, so it would not be a problem to recruit another 30 billion male soldiers.

Anyway, if you lose you will die, so it doesn’t matter whether you liberate the man or not.

But if she wins, she will be the queen again.

So Zhu Bai led 30 billion female soldiers to fight, and at the same time recruited 30 billion male soldiers for training in the imperial capital. As a result, as soon as the order was issued, more than 30 billion men in the city signed up in two days in order to be liberated, and Zhu Bai had billion more soldiers out of thin air.

It’s just that these male soldiers have not received any training and need time to grow.
