Self-cultivation of bad people can be done automatically

Chapter 64 The Northern Expedition
But after finishing these things, Liu Shouguang was still not satisfied.

Human desire is like a rolling stone, once it starts, it can never stop.

After dominating the land of Youzhou and becoming the king of Yan, Liu Shouguang's desire and ambition grew.

He wants to be emperor!
On this day, Liu Shouguang was wearing ochre-yellow clothes, sitting on a dragon chair, and asked the generals below: "Is this king wearing this clothes and sitting facing south, can I be emperor?"

All the generals and officials dared not speak, but Sun He, the surrendered minister, dared to speak out.But Liu Shouguang didn't listen to Sun He's advice, and still wore a yellow dragon robe every day.

Just at this time, Zhu Wen sent Wang Tong, the cabinet envoy, to give Liu Shouguang the post of Hebei interview envoy, and added an official to Shangfu.

However, when it came to the day of the canonization ceremony, Liu Shouguang was dissatisfied, and asked his subordinates, "Why don't you sacrifice the sky and change the Yuan in this ceremony?"

The person in charge of the etiquette replied: "Sacrificing the heaven and changing the yuan is the gift of the son of heaven. The king of Yan honors the position of his father. Although he respects it, he is still a courtier."

Liu Shouguang said angrily, "I'm still my father, who can be the emperor? Now that the world is divided, all heroes rise together, the big one is called the emperor, and the small one is called the king. This king has two thousand miles of Yan land. Can't he be called the emperor?"

So he ordered Liang Guo's envoys to be imprisoned, set up axes and other instruments of torture in the court, and ordered the officials of Yandi: "Whoever dares to remonstrate will die!"

None of the ministers dared to speak out, but only Sun He dared to remonstrate with Liu Shouguang, saying: "The army in Cangzhou was defeated, and I thank King Yan for not killing him. I dare not not remonstrate with the matter of falling ill with Liang and proclaiming himself emperor."

Liu Shouguang wanted to be the emperor and went crazy. He didn't listen to dissuasion at all. He ordered Sun He to be pushed on the axe on the spot, and the soldiers cut his flesh one by one.

Sun He's life was dying, but he was fearless, he just yelled: "Liu Shouguang, you won't live long! Within a hundred days, soldiers will arrive!"

Liu Shouguang was furious, and ordered the sergeant to gag Sun He's mouth and chop him into meat paste.

After killing Sun He, no one dared to persuade Liu Shouguang again, so Liu Shouguang presumptuously proclaimed himself emperor.

He called himself Emperor Dayan and changed his name to Yingtian.

Three months passed slowly, and the weather has come to winter.

In these three months, Zhu Youning can be said to have worked hard in Pinglu.

Not only was the potato planting a great success, but it also allowed the soldiers to practice their internal strength and become even more powerful.In addition, the first batch of students of the military academy also graduated successfully.

The cadets graduated from the military academy, and the formation of Zhu Youning's naval and artillery units was also put on the agenda.

In addition to the "Ziqing Nei Ordnance Institute" established a long time ago, Zhu Youning expanded another organization responsible for the construction of artillery "Daliang Invincible General": the Pinglu Manufacturing Bureau.

Of course, there are many other institutions, and Zhu Youning has also figured them out.

For example: the layout of Dengzhou Shipping Bureau, Yanzhou Iron Works, and Zizhou Weaving seems to be a small Westernization Movement!
It stands to reason that normal people would definitely not be able to do this.

But Zhu Youning has a system, and most of the items and technologies seem to be redeemable from the system store.

Of course, it just seems like that.

After all, the system is a mutation of a martial arts game.It is impossible for Zhu Youning to exchange for something that fully meets the conditions.

He can only exchange some useful items.

For example:
[Secret Code of Saltpeter: Jia Ming's father devoted his whole life to comprehend the art of nitre mechanism all over the world, recorded it in this book, and passed it on to his son Jia Ming when he was dying.It's a pity that Jia Ming is ignorant and unable to learn the secrets. 】

[Iron-clad ship blueprint: The treasure of the Qinglong gang, which records the method of manufacturing the iron-clad boat. The Qinglong gang used the iron-clad boat to run rampant on the sea, and the government was extremely troubled. 】

[Giant Whale Battleship blueprint: The treasure of the Giant Whale Clan, which records the manufacturing method of the Giant Whale Battleship.The Giant Whale Gang was originally a small overseas sect, and it was by virtue of the power of the giant whale battleship that they were able to dominate the sea. 】

On this day, Zhu Youning met an envoy from Bianzhou.

Of course the envoy came with an imperial decree.

"Liu Shouguang imprisoned his father and murdered his brother. According to Lu Long, His Majesty had named him the King of Yan, but he never thought that he would pretend to be emperor and imprison the envoy. The imperial court had to issue an edict to punish him."

Zhu Youning was a little surprised that the messenger who came to Qingzhou was actually Li Zhen.That's what he told Zhu Youning when he came to Qingzhou.

Zhu Youning asked, "Is Liu Shouguang proclaimed emperor?"

"Yes."

Li Zhen nodded, and said word by word: "Liu Shouguang imprisoned his father first, and then Liu Shouwen, the governor of Yichang, sent troops to denounce his brother Liu Shouguang's imprisoned father for his dishonesty. The Khitan Khan Yelu Abaoji dispatched tens of thousands of troops, including several thousand from the Tuyuhun tribe, to aid Liu Shouwen. And Liu Shouwen also dispatched all the soldiers from Cangzhou and Dezhou, gaining more than [-] soldiers, and joined the Khitan Tuyuhun army , with [-] soldiers, fought against Liu Shouguang at Jisu, winning first and then losing."

Li Zhen explained to Zhu Youning the situation on the Lulong battlefield in detail.

In fact, Zhu Youning knew all of this. It was difficult for Zhu Youning to know about the large-scale war that was waged in Lulong.

"What does His Majesty mean?"

Li Zhen took out the imperial decree and handed it directly to Zhu Youning, saying: "Liu Shouguang has usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. Your Majesty is furious. He has ordered Wang Yanzhang to be the emissary to recruit from the north and lead the army to attack Cangzhou. In addition, your majesty has also appointed His Highness to be the envoy to recruit from the east." The envoy, as a partial division, chooses a day to send troops to the north."

Seeing Li Zhen, he just went through the motions, and Zhu Youning didn't bow his head to welcome the imperial edict.

"The land of Youzhou is the barrier to the north, so it should be taken back. Your Majesty has ordered me to send troops overnight."

After sending Li Zhen away, Zhu Youning quickly summoned the army.

In this Northern Expedition, Zhu Youning was the Eastern Route Army, only a partial division, and the main force was still the main force led by Wang Yanzhang from the west, so Zhu Youning didn't need to bring too many soldiers.

After thinking about it, Zhu Youning planned to lead the Hujie Army to the north with a total of more than [-] people.

Of course, there is a reason why Zhu Youning led the Tiger Army with 2 troops.

First, the generals of the Hu Jie Army have completed the first period of advanced training at the An Wang Military Academy, and they are already ready to fight.

Second, most of the soldiers of the Shengjie Army are practicing martial arts such as the essence of Xiyi archery, the essence of divine arm bow archery, the Mo Dao Dao method, and the Mo Dao Grand Formation, and they have not yet mastered them.

Third, although the Long Jie Army claims to have [-] cavalry, it only has [-] horses. The organizational system has not yet formed, and most of the soldiers are still training.

After the soldiers of the General Tiger Jie Army had assembled, Zhu Youning went back to the mansion first.

"My lord, what are you doing?"

Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian looked surprised when they saw Zhu Youning in armor.

Of course, they had already guessed something in their hearts.Although they stayed in Prince An's Mansion most of the time, they could still feel the tense atmosphere of the upcoming battle.

Sure enough, Zhu Youning spoke immediately.

"The battle of the army is imminent, and this king is going to send troops to the north, so you should stay in the mansion well."

"Yes."
