Please ask me to be the emperor

Zhang Shun's departure made the elders in Meng County feel like they were mourning for their heir, and they all burst into tears. Some gentry even planned to give Zhang Shun the "Umbrella of All Peoples" as a gift. Fortunately, there were still people who were sober and quickly reminded him: "Other officers and soldiers coming here will be even more dangerous than thieves. If someone gets caught, I'm afraid none of us will survive!" The matter was finally given up.

Let's say that after everyone left Meng County, the generals felt as if they were in a dream. It is simply unheard of for a bandit to reach this level in the world. As a result, everyone looked at Zhang Shun and their hearts became even hotter: "This man is indeed the destined emperor, and he should not be regarded by ordinary people. If we make contributions, I am afraid that our descendants will not be able to use him in full."

There are even some people who know the "Yellow River Monument" who have already given up their hearts on Zhang Shun and are determined to be the loyal minister who founded the country. Even Zhang Shenyan vaguely heard about the "Yellow River Stele" and the "inscription" written on it like a heavenly book.

Zhang Shenyan was promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment. His knowledge was first-class and he could decipher the so-called "inscription" easily. He couldn't help but feel frightened and frightened in his heart. Whether this thing was created by Zhang Shun himself or it was God's will, this showed Zhang Shun's huge threat to the Ming Dynasty. He couldn't help but secretly made up his mind that things could not continue like this, and he must find a way to get rid of this person.

But Zhang Shun himself calmed down. If others don't know what "Qing" is, doesn't he himself know what "Qing" is? The current Manchu Qing Dynasty still calls itself "Da Jin", and later generations will call it "Later Jin". It has not yet been renamed "Qing Dynasty".

Only a few years later, "Dajin" believed that the five elements of the Ming Dynasty belonged to fire and their own five elements belonged to gold, so they began to change the name of the country to "Daqing", taking the meaning of water overcoming fire.

Although Zhang Shun has begun to get used to his "destiny", this time he couldn't help but fall into deep doubts. He thinks it's possible that this is his mission in time travel, right? Otherwise, there is really no way to explain why there is such a magical prophecy.

At this time, he was not panicked at all. He looked at Zhang Shenyan and smiled strangely, thinking: When "Dajin" changes its national name someday, I'll see how you react!

To attack Huaiqing Prefecture from Meng County, you need to cross two rivers, and the "Purple Gold Liang" only needs to cross one river. Therefore, although Jiyuan is farther from Huaiqing Prefecture, he arrived at Fucheng at about the same time as Zhang Shun.

Huaiqing Prefecture was located in Hanoi County, which was renamed Qinyang in later generations. As the name suggests, the city happens to be close to Qinshui River. A common saying in later generations goes: Qinyang city wall is made of bricks and covered with earth, and its circumference is nine miles and thirteen steps. This means that the city wall is strong, with bricks on the outside and earth on the inside, and a circumference of nine miles and thirteen steps.

This city is much larger than the small Douzhuang, not to mention it is close to Qinshui River and has a moat, making it even easier to defend and difficult to attack. There are Prince Zheng's Mansion and Huaiqing Guard in the city of Huaiqing Prefecture. Although the guard post has long been in disrepair, it is still much better than other counties where they are streaking. What's more, there was Prince Zheng, the idle prince of the Ming Dynasty, in the city. The prefect of Huaiqing didn't dare to make any mistakes, so he had to grit his teeth and order the city to be defended.

There are five gates in Huaiqing Mansion, and there are exactly two gates on the west side where "Zijin Liang" and Zhang Shun first came into contact. When the two troops arrived, it was already dark. They made a trial attack, but with no effect, so they set up camp outside the city and buried pots to make rice.

Not long after, "Lao Huihui" also rushed over. Although this person had had conflicts with "Purple Gold Liang" before, "Purple Gold Liang" could not do anything to him for the time being, and he did not dare to completely break up with "Purple Gold Liang", so everyone had to maintain the superficial harmony. Under the pressure of survival, he looked like he was letting bygones be bygones.

After dinner, the camp had been set up, and Zhang took Wukong and Ji Dan to visit "Purple Golden Liang". It happened that "Purple Gold Liang" had also finished his dinner, and the two of them exchanged polite farewells. However, they happened to hear that "Purple Gold Liang"'s subordinates had come to report, and "General" Huang Lai'er had already arrived and would come to pay him a visit soon.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shun became interested. This was the fourth rebel commander he would see since joining the rebel army. The two sat for a while, only to hear a commotion outside, but a man came in, bowed to "Purple Gold Liang", and said hoarsely: "'Second Master,' Huang is here!"

Zhang Shun looked up and saw that this person had high cheekbones, round eyes and narrow nose, which is the so-called high nose and deep eyes. His appearance did not look like the people from the Central Plains.

"Purple Gold Liang" saw this man and smiled and said: "Huang Lai'er is here, let me introduce a new brother. This is 'Optimus Prime'. Don't look at his young age. He only used a thousand people before." They defeated the Shanxi Governor Song Tong and Yin's ten-thousand-strong formation. It is rare in the world, and it is true that 'heroes have emerged from youth since ancient times'!"

"Little brother 'Optimus Prime', this person is the famous 'Champion' Huang Lai'er. Although he is a few years older than you, he is just like you. He is also a brave young man who is good at fighting. You two will get closer and closer in the future."

When Huang Lai'er saw Zhang Shun sitting at the foot of the "Purple Golden Beam" at such a young age, he couldn't help but look at him. It's just that he was dull and not good at words. He just offered Zhang Shun's hand and was at a loss. .

Seeing that this man was quite honest, Zhang Shun suddenly felt good about him. He quickly stood up and patted his shoulder and said, "Hello, old man. I've heard about the name 'Chuang Jiang' for a long time. We met by chance today and I really like it. I'll have a drink with you when I get the chance." Have a couple of drinks and move around a lot.”

When Huang Lai'er heard this, he just said hello quietly. Zhang Shun was secretly happy that it was rare to find such an honest person among the mixed rebels. However, Zhang Shun did not notice that this person was from the direction of Xiuwu County, which everyone in Meng County was talking about. Came over. The three of them chatted for a while in the "Purple Golden Liang" camp. Huang Lai'er couldn't continue the conversation, so he left. Seeing this, Zhang Shun couldn't stay long, so he said goodbye and returned to the camp.

At this point, all four troops gathered together, "Purple Gold Liang" besieged the north gate and the west gate to the north, Zhang Shun's small number only besieged the west gate to the south, the south gate was in charge of "Lao Huihui", and the east gate was in charge of "Chuang Jiang".

It is said that Zhang Shun returned to the camp and did not bother to rest. He inspected the camp again and arranged for the generals to be on guard at night to be careful of night attacks by Huaiqing Mansion before returning to the camp to rest.

That night, Huaiqing Mansion launched a night attack, but the direction of the attack was in the east of the city. The "Invading General" Huang Lai'er still had some abilities. Not only did he resist the attacks of the officers and soldiers, it is said that he also killed and injured many officers and soldiers, and almost took the opportunity to invade the city. At this point, the officers and soldiers of Huaiqing Prefecture no longer dared to leave the city. They just huddled in the city and no matter how the rebels yelled and cursed, they never went out to fight.

In desperation, "Purple Golden Liang" had to resort to the old method, asking Zhang Shun to take action and bombard the city of Huaiqing Mansion with artillery. However, this artillery did not have the expected effect on the small Douzhuang of the other side, let alone the larger Huaiqing City?

Zhang Shun fought for a long time, saying that he really couldn't help. This method of siege cannot be lazy, it must be done with a lot of lives. As a result, at this time, both "Lao Huihui" and the "insurgent general" Huang Lai'er proposed to drive away the people and fill in the moat.
