Chapter 533: Confucian Sage Cao Changqing! The orphan of Western Chu! Leading the army to Tai'a
Guangling on the Yangtze River.
The towering ships and huge warships exude a ferocious appearance.
Hundreds of thousands of troops continued to gather here.
The 100,000 Dragon Elephant Army led by Chen Zhibao, 100,000 Great Snow Dragon Cavalry, and 100,000 Northern Liang Iron Cavalry were also on their way.
Although Cao Changqing had just arrived here two days ago.
But as early as the demise of Western Chu.
Cao Changqing had already begun planning for the restoration of the country.
Therefore even if it has just arrived.
But just relying on the fame of Cao Changqing, he was able to gather hundreds of thousands of troops.
What's more, Beiliang's current momentum is so exaggerated. Longhu Mountain was destroyed in one day, and the 300,000 elite troops led by Gu Jiantang were destroyed in half a day. However, in just ten days, seven states including Qingzhou and Yongzhou had fallen into the hands of Beiliang.
With such momentum, who could fail to see that Western Chu had truly restored its country this time?
As for why Beiliang would support the restoration of Western Chu, this is not something that the world can consider.
All they could see was that Western Chu was already showing signs of destroying Li Yang.
This situation is worth their bet.
Not to mention that Western Chu has now actually occupied the entire southeastern region.
Not to mention the destroyed Longhu Mountain, the Wu Family Sword Tomb also surrendered to Western Chu two days ago under the physical persuasion of Li Chungang and Peach Blossom Sword God Deng Tai'a. What else could these people complain about?
Even in the areas under Li Yang's jurisdiction, many people came to surrender.
These people are the real speculators.
................
And on the huge ship named after the capital of Da Chu - Shenhuang.
Cao Changqing, a scholar in blue, is reporting the current situation in Western Chu to Zhu Houzhao.
He said softly: "I intend to establish the capital in Tai'an City, and..."
Cao Changqing told almost everything in an orderly manner.
After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao just nodded slightly.
He looked at Jiang Ni and the two young generals on the side: "Is this the future general and admiral you recognize? What does Xuanyuan Jingcheng think? Can he serve as the future prime minister?"
The two people are Song Yuanhang and Kou Jianghuai.
Don't underestimate them because they are not well-known among the snow.
But in the later period of the Snow Period, he became the real leader of Western Chu.
In particular, Kou Jianghuai is a general who will replace Chen Zhibao in the future Northern Liang.
But now these two are still a little immature.
After feeling Zhu Houzhao's gaze, Kou Jianghuai became a little rebellious, and looked at Cao Changqing in surprise, as if asking who this person in front of him was. Didn't he say that he would support Princess Taiping Jiang Ni as the empress?
Song Yuanhang didn't have so many thoughts. He just felt that Zhu Houzhao's aura was indeed a bit exaggerated. Just that plain glance made his heart tremble, as if he was being watched by the heaven and earth.
Cao Changqing took in the reactions of both men. He did not explain the existence of Zhu Houzhao, but said respectfully: "If I return to the Ming Dynasty in the future, Xuanyuan Jingcheng's intelligence and strength will certainly be enough to serve as the Prime Minister. In addition to this person, I also think that Zhang Julu can continue to serve as an important official of Western Chu."
However, he admired Zhang Julu very much.
Zhu Houzhao had only asked casually before: "You can decide how to arrange the court, but since Jiang Ni is a female emperor, you should also choose some female officials to serve you. Xuanyuan Qingfeng and Xu Weixiong are good."
Just like the empress with a female official beside her among the young men on white horses.
Today's ginger paste is also a bit more immature.
Of course, some female officials are needed to assist.
As for the eunuchs in the palace?
This is not a suitable candidate at all.
Unless Han Shengxuan, the cat, intends to come to the snow again to play the role of the big devil of the Spring and Autumn Period.
Cao Changqing also knew this: "I promised the Lu family that Lu Yancheng would also serve as a female official."
Zhu Houzhao nodded: "That girl is also fine."
With just a few words, the two of them decided the future structure of the court.
Wudang was even established as the state religion.
Such casual words also surprised Song Yuanhang and Kou Jianghuai.
Zhu Houzhao continued, "Beimang has already made some moves. It seems that Liyang has promised something. With Xichu's current strength, how many days can it take to completely control the entire Liyang?"
What he asked was not how many days it would take to destroy Liyang Tai'an City.
But control the entire Li Yang.
Cao Changqing hesitated for a moment and then said, "If we want to destroy Tai'an City, it will only take two days. But if we want to completely control Liyang, it depends on the cooperation of the Emperor of Liyang. If he can pull most of the masters of the forces to Tai'an City, then after Tai'an City is destroyed, he can quickly control the entire Liyang."
"Otherwise, it would take some effort, but if you want to take charge of Liyang, you don't need to leave any troops behind."
"It won't delay the destruction of Beimang either."
As soon as these words came out.
Kou Jianghuai's eyes widened instantly. He had previously thought that this battle was about attacking Tai'an City, but as he listened, why did they suddenly talk about taking charge of Liyang, or even destroying Beimang? !
This is because Kou Jianghuai has too little experience.
Zhu Houzhao nodded: "Try to handle the matter as cleanly as possible to avoid trouble in the future."
So much for the snow.
All that was left was a clean and efficient horizontal push and crushing.
As long as Western Chu can completely unify the world, with this national destiny, Zhu Houzhao will be able to devour the world at will. He does not want to have to go through the trouble of cleaning up the situation after unifying the world.
At that time, people like Cao Changqing and Chen Zhibao will also need to return to the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible.
Only in this way can it play a role in the upcoming conquests of Legend of Sword and Fairy and A Chinese Ghost Story.
Cao Changqing knew this, "The most troublesome people in Liyang right now are the Qi-refining practitioners of the Guanyin Sect in the south, such as Tan Tai Pingjing. The next most troublesome people are the immortals who might come to the mortal world. However, after His Majesty dragged all the forty-two immortals into the mortal world and killed them at Mount Longhu, I don't think many immortals would dare to come to the mortal world."
"Besides that, only the Southern Border Army under the command of Yan Chi Wang Zhao Bing has some combat effectiveness."
"The rest of the people are just fence-sitters, just sitting on the fence and watching."
"We can slowly deal with these people after we destroy Li Yang."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about anything."
Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly: "Then it's up to you from now on."
After he said that, he stood up and walked out of the cabin.
The situation has developed to this point, but there is no need for Zhu Houzhao, the Human Emperor, to do anything.
All he had to do was watch the battle calmly.
But before that, I might as well go and see what Princess Pei is like.
If a woman lowers her head and her toes are not visible, does that mean she is the most beautiful woman in the world?
Zhu Houzhao chuckled.
Song Yuanhang and Kou Jianghuai saw Zhu Houzhao disappear in an instant.
They also came back to their senses from the incident of the forty-two immortals being dragged into the human world and falling.
Cao Changqing didn't care about what these two people were thinking.
Instead, he looked towards the direction of Tai'an City: "Lead the troops to Tai'an City!"
