The system forced me to be emperor

Xiao Rui fell silent.

He was thinking, what would he do if it was him?

Knowing that the city cannot be defended, but also defending the city to the death, to serve the country?

Or give up resisting and bear the infamy for the sake of the people of the city?

Xiao Rui didn't know what he would do, because he was not in that environment, and it would be irresponsible to speculate from outside the matter now.

"Now that the Eastern Tibetan Commandery has been destroyed, the remaining two resisting prefectures are at your fingertips. In a few days, Eastern Tibetan Commandery will also be completely in Daxia's hands!" Xiao Rui said happily.

Zhang Liang and Guo Jia nodded.

Guo Jiadao: "You can know the whole leopard at a glance. This is the case in East Tibet County. Further west, Tibet West County, Lingshan County, and Qishui County are also in a state of powerlessness to resist. Moreover, East Tibet County voluntarily surrendered, which further formed a chain of influence. The hearts of the people are scattered. Zhao Guo wants to save himself, but he may not be able to recover!"

Xiao Rui nodded to express his approval, but at the same time, he became a little impatient.

The purpose of his coming here is to destroy the State of Zhao, more precisely, to kill the Emperor Zhao and avenge his mother, but now the army is moving westward too slowly, and it is estimated that if Qi Jiang is attacked, the State of Qin will take the State of Zhao If it is destroyed, Xiao Rui will not be able to avenge Xiao Rui's great revenge.

So Xiao Rui should speed up his speed.

Could it be that the time he went to Qi State, he led Iron Dragon Riders across the Qi River, entered Qiao County, and then went straight to Huanglong and entered Zhao Huang's capital?

I'm afraid I won't be able to learn this time.

First, Emperor Zhao already knew Xiao Rui's whereabouts, so he was naturally worried that Xiao Rui would personally lead the Iron Dragon Riders to kill him, so he must have set a trap.

Second, once the Iron Dragon Knight crossed the Qi River first, they would be really helpless.Once caught in the siege of the army, the natural danger of Qi Jiang will completely trap the Iron Dragon Knights and prevent them from going east. This is very dangerous.

Thirdly, even five thousand iron dragonriders would not be able to break through Zhao's imperial capital, let alone enter the imperial city and kill Zhao Huang.

So all of the above made Xiao Rui give up the idea of ​​leading the iron dragon to ride the waves.

At this time, Zhang Liang saw Xiao Rui's meditation.

How clever he is, he immediately guessed what Xiao Rui was thinking about, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness, if you want to kill Zhao Huang, you can only go to Zhao Guohuang Capital."

Xiao Rui came back to his senses, looked at Zhang Liang's smile, and suddenly remembered that he brought A'Zhu here on purpose, and immediately understood his intention.

"Has Zifang already guessed this step?" Xiao Rui asked.

Zhang Liang nodded and said: "Our army can at most take the territory east of the Qijiang River. It is impossible to cross the river, because there is a lack of a large number of boats to cross the river. This is a natural barrier, and we can only plan in the future. Since we can't destroy it with our own hands. To avenge Concubine Rong's concubine, according to His Highness's temperament, he will naturally kill Emperor Zhao. Therefore, going to Emperor Zhao is a certainty."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "I still need to inform Chang Shenghou about this matter, and then choose a confidant to put on the special mask of Miss Azhu, pretend to be His Highness and continue to stay in the camp. If there is nothing to do, come out and take a few steps, so that Zhao Guo's The scouts and spies knew that His Highness was in the barracks, so they relaxed their vigilance. But we disguised ourselves and went west to the capital of Zhao Kingdom, and no one noticed. This time, we brought a lot of explosives, and we have a chance to let Zhao Huang taste what it is smell."

"Haha... Those who know my heart, the two gentlemen also." Xiao Rui laughed loudly.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang said again: "Actually, the one who knows Your Highness best is not your subordinates, but His Majesty today!"

"My father?" Xiao Rui asked in surprise.

Zhang Liang nodded, then took out a list from his bosom, and said: "Your Highness, before departure, His Majesty secretly summoned Mr. Wen He and handed it to him, and warned us to keep it from His Highness. Take them out again!"

"What?" Xiao Rui asked curiously. When he opened the list, his eyes showed surprise.

This turned out to be the list of spies of Xichang in Zhao Kingdom's imperial capital!

And many of the people on the list turned out to be dignitaries of the Zhao Kingdom!

His Majesty handed over such a confidential list to Xiao Rui, but after helping him go to the imperial capital of Zhao State, it will be easier to carry out operations!

Prince Xia went to Zhao Guohuang to assassinate Zhao Huang. This is really daring, it is interesting to think about it!

Chapter 483: There is nothing wrong with this logic

Now that you have decided to go to the imperial capital of Zhao, you need to make good preparations before going, and don't rush for a while.

Marquis Chang Sheng had already led troops to take over the eastern Tibetan county, and then the army set out to completely occupy this majestic county, and Xiao Rui also moved into the prefect's mansion.

Two days later, when the situation in the county had completely stabilized, Zhang Liang and the others were also ready.

Among the soldiers of the Iron Dragon Rider, a man with a figure similar to Xiao Rui was selected. A Zhu taught him the skills of wearing masks and makeup. fake.

When Chang Sheng Hou Tian Boyuan was invited, he saluted the fake Xiao Rui. The fake Xiao Rui raised his hand to signal. Chang Sheng Hou stood up, always feeling that the prince in front of him was different from the previous two days.

But when the real Xiao Rui from the side room came out, Chang Shenghou was stunned, pointing at the real and fake Xiao Rui, speechless.

Xiao Rui laughed and said: "Even Lord Hou can't tell the truth from the fake, it seems that this palace can go to Zhao Guohuang's capital with peace of mind."

Chang Shenghou's stunned expression immediately turned into horror, and he immediately shouted: "His Royal Highness is going to the imperial capital of Zhao Kingdom, no, absolutely no! A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, let alone a majestic crown prince of a country! If Your Highness There are three advantages and two disadvantages, even if the last general dies, he will not be able to explain to His Majesty!"

Xiao Rui knew that Marquis Chang Sheng would not agree, so he didn't bother to explain to him. He took out the gold medal, waved it at him, and said, "This is an order from His Majesty, and don't worry, Lord Hou, I will pretend to be fake, and I will not give up." This person will pretend to be my palace and continue to supervise the army, confusing the enemy's eyes and ears, believing that the enemy is just trying to break his head, and he doesn't know that this palace will come to Zhao's imperial capital in person. Is it true, Lord Hou?"

When Marquis Chang Sheng saw that it was "as if I were here in person", he knew that the crown prince could not be stopped, and at the same time, he slandered in his heart that His Majesty loved the crown prince too much, and even rewarded this gold medal, and would not take it back.

But then again, what His Highness said was right, he couldn't believe that the crown prince of a country would swagger to the imperial capital of the enemy country, it was so bold.

"Your Highness, this matter is still too dangerous!" Chang Shenghou still discouraged.

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Two sixth-rank masters, two fifth-rank masters, two resourceful counselors, my cultivation base is not bad, plus a disguise master, why would Zhao Guohuang not dare to go?" ? Lord Hou can put your heart in your body, I will come all the way to the west in Zhao Kingdom's imperial capital, Lord Hou!"

Chang Shenghou said again: "Going to the imperial capital, we will definitely encounter interrogations along the way! What if we accidentally reveal our secrets?"

Zhang Liang explained: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, we have secretly forged the identities of the people in East Tibet County, and all the procedures for household registration certificates have been completed. We will pretend to be merchants who escaped from the city of East Tibet County. The city is in the hands of Lord Hou, Zhao Guo has no way of verifying it, but it can be guaranteed that nothing will go wrong."

"In that case, fine." Chang Shenghou had no choice but to nod his head.

……

On the same day, Xiao Rui, Zhang Liang, Guo Jia, Dian Wei, Li Yuanfang, Yang Youji, and A Zhu, a total of seven people quietly left the eastern Tibetan county and headed west.

As for the gunpowder, Wu Zhanfa arranged for a reliable caravan to transport them to the imperial capital of the State of Zhao. People in the State of Zhao had never seen gunpowder, so they could be faked into materials for alchemy even after investigation. Zhao Huang likes to eat elixir, so it happened Borrow this rhetoric.In addition, merchants have their own channels, and if they are given enough money, they will find a way to get in.When Xiao Rui arrives, he just needs to take over.

Leaving the Eastern Tibetan County City, he entered the territory of the Western Tibetan County the next day.

With Eastern Tibet County falling into the hands of Da Xia, the Western Tibet County is also full of grass and trees. Many wealthy families have moved their entire families and fled in the direction of the imperial capital. They are afraid that they will be robbed if they fall into the hands of Da Xia.

This is their worry!

As the prince of Great Xia, Xiao Rui dared to promise with all his heart that he would never move a single stitch from the people of Zhao State in a short time!

After all, it is a big deal to appease the people of Zhao State.

As for the future...

The local tyrants and family gentry of Zhao State, you oppress the people, squeeze the people's fat and the people's anointing, people are doing what God is watching, and you will have to pay the price in the end.

In addition, Xiao Rui also saw that the garrison in West Tibet County was only tens of thousands of regular troops, and they also relied on conscripted men to garrison. However, the surrender of Xun Qing, the prefect of East Tibet County, cast a shadow over West Tibet County.
