Chapter 290: King Zhao
Li Longji's thoughts were the same as Wu Zetian's. The Ming Empire already occupied a small half of the empire's territory, so how could there be any benevolence and righteousness to talk about.

Li Longji: "The Ming Empire invaded the Empire for several years and occupied our territory. The Empire and it have been fighting to the death for a long time. I agree with this method."

Seeing that the two of them agreed, Li Jiancheng remained silent for the moment, which was regarded as acquiescence.

After making a plan, Wu Zetian asked curiously: "The guard system of the Ming Empire was established by Zhu Hongwu."

Li Longji shook his head and said: "Yes and no. When the Ming Empire was founded, Zhu Hongwu did use the guard system to stabilize the territory, but the guard system at that time was just for raising troops. The current guard system was changed during the reign of Emperor Xiaokang However, I think this handwriting does not belong to Emperor Xiaokang, but to Prince Zhao."

Wu Zetian sighed: "Prince Zhao of the Ming Empire is really a genius!"

Li Jiancheng also nodded and said: "The first time I heard about Prince Zhao was because his saintly words were regarded as the 'Wen Zong' by the Ming Empire. I didn't take it seriously at the time. But later, his four disciples compiled the 'Xin Xue' I am so shocked! I heard that the current Emperor Wu Ying of the Ming Empire is his disciple."

Li Longji nodded and said: "That Prince Zhao has four disciples. The eldest disciple, Emperor Wuying, Zhu Xiongying, is a heroic leader. His literary skills and martial arts are outstanding in his generation. After the Ming Empire captured the Western Grasslands, he was still the crown prince at that time. Emperor Wu Ying, who was based in the grasslands, single-handedly brought the western grasslands under the rule of the Ming Empire, and his methods were extremely fierce."

"The remaining three disciples are also outstanding people. Especially Zhu Gaochi, the legitimate son of King Yan. There are rumors in the Ming Empire that this is a genius in governing the country that is not weaker than Li Shanchang, the founder of the Ming Empire."

"These three disciples are now in charge of governing the imperial territory occupied by the Eastern Expeditionary Army of the Ming Empire."

Looking at Li Jiancheng and Wu Zetian who were a little surprised, Li Longji continued: "The empire has been established for so long, and there are definitely not a few people who support the empire. In order to cause trouble for the Ming Empire, the empire also frequently resorted to tricks in the southern region. However, the Ming Empire occupied Not only has there been no major chaos in the territory, it has become more and more stable. Now, there is not even any information coming out from the southernmost region."

Li Jiancheng is a master of political management, so he naturally understands how difficult it is to do what Li Longji said. This is what people want!The war ahead continued, and the Tang Empire showed no sign of decline. The Ming Empire was actually able to achieve what the people wanted in its new territory, which was really scary.

Li Longji smiled bitterly and said: "In the past two years of fierce fighting with the Ming Empire, the empire has lost both military and political affairs! If the three of us don't join forces, I am afraid that the foundation of the empire will be dug up by the Ming Empire."

Looking at Li Longji with a bitter face, Li Jiancheng and Wu Zetian looked at each other and finally understood the terror of the Ming Empire.

Wu Zetian said quietly: "Zhu Hongwu is really lucky!"

Li Longji was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Indeed, if it weren't for Prince Zhao, the Ming Empire would probably still have a headache in defending against the grasslands."

Wu Zetian: "Wen passed down the world with 'Xin Xue', and he was known as 'Wen Zong'; Wu Neng destroyed six countries in two years, and killed Nurhaci with his own hands, so he was known as 'Military God'; this man could be a god coming to earth."

Li Longji said: "It is rumored that this Prince Zhao suffered from a serious illness when he was young and his life was in danger. It was Zhang Sanfeng, the national master of the Ming Empire, who taught him the method, and he was able to stay strong and survive. Who would have thought that this frail Prince Zhao It was actually able to soar into the sky and bring the Ming Empire to this level.”

Li Jiancheng also said quietly: "We have captured the crown prince of the Ming Empire. This Prince Zhao will definitely not be able to sit still. Then we will have a glimpse of his style."

Thinking of facing Zhu Qi, the three of them were silent for a while. They were under great pressure!
At that time, Zhu Qi destroyed the six kingdoms in two years. Xiaoyaozi, the land god of the Song Empire, defected to the Ming Empire and became a worshiper; Nurhachi of the Qing Empire was beaten to death by Zhu Qi in public; Temujin of the Yuan Empire was also rumored to have died in the hands of Zhu Qi. .

But there are more than just these land gods in the Six Kingdoms!
Huang Taiji of the Qing Empire, Kublai Khan of the Yuan Empire, Tuoba Sigong of the Xixia Empire, Yelu Aguda of the Khitan Empire, and Wanyanmin of the Jin Empire.Where have these five land gods gone?
If they were alive, how could they see their empire destroyed by the Ming Empire.

If they died, how did they die? Were they killed by the Ming Empire?How did the Ming Empire kill them?

If the Ming Empire really killed them, could the Tang Empire really stop the Ming Empire?
Every question, every doubt.Li Jiancheng, Wu Zetian, and Li Longji were extremely wary of the Ming Empire, but they could not abandon the Tang Empire.

Therefore, this battle is doomed.

"Grandpa Ninth, this battle of the Eastern Expeditionary Army not only crushed the counterattack of the Tang Empire, but also pushed the empire's defense line to the north for nearly a hundred miles. Now, the troops of the Tang Empire have been unable to retreat and they dare not fight against the empire."

Looking at the beaming Crown Prince Zhu Wenkeng, Zhu Qi said with a smile: "The Eastern Expeditionary Army fought well in this battle. The post-war military merit rewards have been arranged!"

Prince: "Xin Guozheng is urging us to step up the assessment, and we will be fine tomorrow."

Zhu Qi nodded and said: "Prince, you are the crown prince of the empire and the commander-in-chief of the army. Remember, military merit awards must not be lax in the slightest. Especially since the Eastern Expedition Army is filled with children of the royal family and nobles."

The prince nodded sharply, knowing that Zhu Qi was reminding him: "Don't worry, Grandpa Ninth, I will sort out the military merit book again when I go back."

Zhu Qi nodded with satisfaction. This prince was smart and capable and a great talent.

Zhu Qi: "Prince, what do you think the empire should do next after this battle?"

The prince thought for a moment and said: "I think the empire should shrink its defense line at this moment, prepare food and grass, and train troops and horses."

Zhu Qi: "Oh! Our army has won a great victory in this battle. Shouldn't we take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"

Prince: "For the empire, this battle is to force the three land gods of the Tang Empire to take action, not to seize territory; for the Tang Empire, this battle is to test the empire's combat power and force the empire to retreat." In this battle, faced with the terrifying combat power of the imperial army, the Tang Empire’s idea of ​​using a large army to repel the empire has been shattered. I think the three land gods of the Tang Empire should take action next.”

"With Grandpa Jiu and the Imperial Preceptor and the two enshrined here, the three land gods from the Tang Empire must have come and gone. In this case, the army should prepare food and grass, train troops and horses, and prepare to take over the entire Tang Empire."

Zhu Qi looked at the heroic prince and laughed loudly: "Okay! I haven't been dazzled by the victory. Just do as you say! In addition, since tomorrow you moved to live with me, the three people in the Tang Empire have I’m afraid I can’t help but take action against you.”

The prince was shocked and said: "Take action against me!"

Zhu Qi said with a smile: "You are the prince of the empire and the commander-in-chief of the army. If we can capture you, the Eastern Expeditionary Army will be in chaos, and the Tang Empire will be able to take the opportunity to regain the lost territory. Moreover, with you in hand, the empire will also be wary of the rat. .”
