I became emperor in the Tang Dynasty by relying on the palace fighting system

Chapter 90 Crossing the River and Attacking Pyongyang

Li Zhao secretly observed their expressions and quietly gave Qingluan a "yeah" gesture in private chat.

Qingluan sighed at the host's superb acting skills, and at the same time, she also knew what the host meant.

Although Li Zhao acted as if she was taking the opportunity to elevate the status of a goddess, she was truly thinking about the soldiers.

Every promise she made to those soldiers was true.

Li Zhao saw the suffering of the people in this world and was also working hard to solve these problems.

No matter how big or small the things she does, she wants to make life better for the people of this world.

"I'm so annoyed. Let's go out for a walk and see how the soldiers are doing."

Having said that, Li Zhao took the opportunity to lead them out of the tent and start the next performance.

Li Zhao led his officers and walked throughout the entire camp, asking all the soldiers about their well-being.

When they reached the Heavenly Doctor Group, Li Zhao threw out a [Happy Face Puppet] and placed it on the roof of the lookout tower.

When she finished greeting the wounded and was about to leave, someone discovered the puppet on the roof of the watchtower.

Di Renjie was the first to protect Li Zhao and shouted angrily, "Who is it?"

The surrounding soldiers immediately became alert, drew their swords and looked at the woman who had appeared out of nowhere.

She was a woman in a green dress with a straight hem. She had a cross bun on her hair and a pair of red bird flower and gold leaf hairpins in her hair. She had long hair by her ears and her temperament was as gentle as the spring breeze.

Hearing this, she turned around and smiled, then jumped off the roof of the observation deck which was several meters high, moving as lightly as a swallow.

Qing Luan, who had memorized the script, was surprised: "The God of Spring and Summer Growth, Your Highness Nuyi?"

Nüyi smiled faintly and said nothing. She just sat down, took out a handful of grass, then took out a linen robe and a pair of straw sandals, and quickly stuffed the grass in.

After doing all this, Nuyi disappeared out of thin air.

Li Zhao used his telekinesis skill to fetch the linen robe and straw sandals she left behind.

Li Qingning's mind moved: "Xuanzun, why not let the soldiers try it on."

Li Zhao agreed: "Okay."

Di Renjie found a soldier and asked him to put them on. The soldier said excitedly, "It's not cold anymore! Xuanzun, it's not cold anymore!"

Zheng Yuanyin hurriedly said, "Xuanzun, I've seen this kind of grass! It's everywhere in the nearby mountains."

She was just bored and saw it while she was out strolling. Now she could just tell it about it to please Yu Dou Xuan Zun.

Li Zhao's eyes lit up, and he ordered, "Give a handful of this grass to the soldiers for identification, and immediately organize people to look for it."

The three old treasures of Northeast China are ginseng, sable fur and Ula grass.

Ula grass is a treasure for the poor to keep warm.

The people under him took action immediately. In early September, when heavy snow fell from the sky, everyone put on robes and shoes filled with Ula grass.

Lu Bicheng and He Xiangning sent a large amount of honeycomb coal under the pretext of recruiting soldiers. The soldiers put on their clothes, gathered around the stove, and roasted the fish caught from the river. What a wonderful life they had.

As the days approached December, the Yalu River gradually froze over. The Goguryeo soldiers on the other side became more nervous, and patrols were increased several times.

Meanwhile, in the Tang army camp, there was constant laughter and joy. Li Zhao ordered his soldiers to break ice to catch fish, have a good meal, and prepare to cross the river in a few days.

The soldiers responded one after another, and kept competing to see who could catch the biggest fish.

The cooks carried baskets of fish to the stove, cut open their stomachs and scaled them, and then boiled or roasted them in preparation for the army's midday dinner before crossing the river.

Someone glanced at the stove and saw that the honeycomb coal under the stove was burning red, the fish soup in the pot was bubbling, and the fish was sizzling under the stove. The aroma spread three meters away, making people drool.

Tianyi Corps, there are many wounded soldiers here, they don’t have to cut grass, but their grass mats, clothes and shoes are the thickest.

During the dinner, many people ate meat and drank soup with big mouthfuls.

The soldiers praised the banquet, the Ula grass, and the goddess who brought the Ula grass.

"Oh my, what a delicious soup! It gives me strength after drinking it."

"This grass is really good. It can feed horses and it's light and warm."

A female soldier sighed, "Xuan Zun is really kind-hearted. Ordinary generals would never care whether we, the little soldiers, are cold or hungry."

Another male soldier laughed and said, "Yes, if there is a recruitment next time, I would like to work with Xuanzun!"

As they were talking, a petite child in brocade clothes came over. They quickly stood up and saluted: "Xuan Zun!"

Li Zhao came here as usual to show off and consolidate her prestige in the army. She sat down familiarly with a sweet smile: "Is the fish soup delicious? Are your clothes warm? If not, add some more Ula grass."

Some soldiers handed her the best grilled fish, and they smiled and said, "Everything is fine, thank you Xuanzun for your concern."

Li Zhao looked down at the straw mat they were sitting on, used the [Speaking Brilliantly] skill, and said in a bewitching tone, "That's good."

"The grass that Nuyi sent is good. I will thank her and Mother Goddess Taiyi later."

When Xuanzun mentioned the new immortals, a group of soldiers became eager to listen to her talk more about the immortals.

A male soldier disguised as a [Happy Face Puppet] asked, "Xuan Zun, I wonder what the title of this female Yi Highness is?"

"She brought us such a treasure, we should burn some incense and express our gratitude to her."

Someone started talking, and the others echoed: "Yes, please tell us, Xuanzun!"

Li Zhao pretended to be confused: "Treasure? The grass sent by Nuyi can be found everywhere in Goguryeo. What kind of treasure is it?"

Some soldiers whose families had fallen on hard times sighed, "Xuan Zun is not like us. You are an immortal, not afraid of cold or heat, but it is difficult for us mortals to survive the winter."

"If there were no grass, this winter would be miserable."

"I wonder how many lives this little blade of grass sent by Her Majesty Nuyi can save."

"Yes, please tell us the divine title of Her Highness Nuyi."

Li Zhao hummed: "Okay, it's okay for me to tell you."

"Nüyi, the goddess of heaven and earth, was born under the seat of Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun. She is in charge of the spring and summer seasons, the growth of all kinds of grains, animals, and plants, and she plays drums and sings to control the heaven and earth."

Li Zhao smiled and said, "If you offer sacrifices to her, your grains, animals, flowers and seedlings will grow better."

"It doesn't have to be too much of a hassle to make offerings. It is enough to send a handful of flowers, branches and a cup of water in front of the statue every month."

The soldiers nodded excitedly: "We understand now. Thank you, Xuanzun, for your guidance!"

With just a small move, he won over a group of fans. Feeling his faith value rising rapidly, Li Zhao smiled secretly.

It’s good that you understand. When I win the hearts of the people in the future and use Nuyi to spread miracles, it will be easier with your fan base.

It was a dinner party with singing and dancing, and everyone was having a great time.

In December, the Yalu River began to freeze under the watchful eyes of the public.

On the river bank, looking at the river surface that was as hard as stone, Li Zhao shouted an order: "Soldiers, cross the river!!"

She was riding on the Nine-Colored Bird and rushed to the front!

The Goguryeo army on the opposite side was defeated under Li Zhao's attack.

Li Zhao annihilated 40,000 enemies and captured 30,000. In the spring of the following year, he, Li Ji, Xue Rengui and others led the army to the outskirts of Pyongyang.

Staring at the Goguryeo capital in front of him, Li Zhao slowly raised a dangerous smile.

The weather is getting cold, let Goguryeo be destroyed.
