Chapter 534: The Emperor Descends

~8 min read 1,409 words

"Rong'er, you are right; I was too pedantic."

"Fortunately, you scolded me awake."

"I will go and apologize to Master right now!"

Guo Jing said to Huang Rong and was about to go find Hong Qi.

"Brother Jing, it is so late; let us wait until tomorrow to see Seven Old Man!"

"I presume Seven Old Man is still angry with you right now!"

Seeing that Guo Jing was about to go find Hong Qi, Huang Rong hurriedly pulled him back and explained to him.

However, seeing that Guo Jing had finally awakened, Huang Rong was also happy for him.

Very quickly, the day of Liu Bian's cross-boundary arrival arrived.

In the Shen Diao world, the original Great Song capital, Lin'an City, had now been designated by Guo Jia as the Great Han's temporary seat of government.

And within these three days, Zhao Yun had also led the one hundred thousand Xiangyang Army and arrived in Lin'an City.

The other cities of the Great Song had now all defected to the Great Han.

Only a few cities in the south that were relatively far away had not yet had personnel arrive.

However, those cities had also already dispatched personnel to head to Lin'an.

And in Lin'an City, under Guo Jia's thunderous methods, those great clans had all obediently handed over the land in their hands.

At this time, quite a few common people had already been distributed farmland.

The common people of Lin'an City were now exceptionally enthusiastic toward the Great Han.

At this moment, in Lin'an City, countless common people poured onto the streets.

They all knew that today would be the day the Great Han Empire's Emperor arrived.

Everyone wanted to see Liu Bian with their own eyes.

They wanted to thank Liu Bian properly.

It was Liu Bian; they now possessed their own land, and their future lives had hope.

At this time, outside the South Gate of Lin'an City, Lü Bu, Zhao Yun, and Guo Jia stood before the one hundred thousand Divine Martial Army.

One step behind the three were the returned Li Mochou, Hong Qi, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and Hong Lingbo.

Behind the five of them were the middle-level generals of the Divine Martial Army.

The one hundred thousand Divine Martial Army exuded a dense baleful aura.

The common people who came to watch were all somewhat excited.

However, regarding the baleful aura exuded by these Divine Martial Army soldiers, although they felt somewhat uncomfortable, no one felt afraid.

"Truly a tiger-wolf army. With such a great army, it is no wonder the Han Kingdom could destroy the entire Great Song within half a month."

Feeling the momentum of the great army behind him, Guo Jing could not help but think to himself.

"Hahaha, the Great Han Son of Heaven is arriving; I must see His Majesty's dignity with my own eyes!"

"Exactly, the Son of Heaven is coming in person; this is a great event!"

"Hahaha, His Majesty is wise!"

"Previously, under the rule of those corrupt officials in the Song Kingdom, we lived lives worse than death. Now, fortunately, His Majesty dispatched the Heavenly Army to destroy the Song Kingdom."

"He even distributed the land of those great clans to us common people, provided us with high-yield seeds, and reduced taxes. We finally have hope to live. Today, our Great Han Son of Heaven is arriving; I must thank His Majesty properly!"

"Well said. When His Majesty arrives, I must also kowtow to His Majesty a few times to express my gratitude."

The watching common people all cheered joyfully.

Just like this, in the anticipation of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, time slowly passed.

And the others in the grand hall also looked at him with disdain.

"As for Jia Sidao, Ding Daquan, and you people, I presume you know what you have done over these years; I do not want to say any more."

"Jia Xu, you handle these people!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Xu understood immediately and responded to Liu Bian:

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty; this subordinate understands!"

Jia Sidao and the others, seeing this scene, also had faces like death.

Quite a few people even begged for mercy with a fluke mentality:

"Your Majesty, spare my life!"

"I am wronged; I beg Your Majesty to spare my life!"

Facing everyone's begging for mercy, Liu Bian merely waved his hand at the soldiers.

Instantly, the soldiers ignored everyone's begging for mercy and dragged them out of the grand hall.

"Very well, now it is time for us to talk about sending troops."

"Fengxiao, you still tell the beloved subjects about the situation of other countries in this world."

Liu Bian, seeing Jia Sidao and the others being taken away, said to the crowd.

This time, he had brought forty thousand great troops from the Great Han Main Realm to cross the boundary.

Naturally, he wanted to pacify the Shen Diao world quickly.

"This subordinate obeys the decree!"

Subsequently, Guo Jia slowly introduced the situation of the Shen Diao world to Liu Bian and the crowd.

"Your Majesty, the continent of the Shen Diao world is not much different from our Great Han Main Realm."

"To the southeast of our Great Han, there is a small country called Dali."

"To the north of our Great Han, it borders the two countries of Western Xia and the Jin Kingdom."

"However, these two countries are currently being beaten to the point of near-destruction under the iron cavalry of the Mongol Kingdom in the north. This is not something to be feared for our Great Han."

"Our main enemy is the Mongol Kingdom on the grasslands."

"The Mongol Kingdom of this world is the number one force in this world."

"Moreover, this subordinate speculates that the Mongol Kingdom already knows that our Great Han has destroyed the Song Kingdom."

"What is most powerful about this Mongol Kingdom is their cavalry."

"However, these Mongol cavalry are still not enough to look at for the six major legions of our Great Han Empire."

Speaking to this point, Guo Jia smiled confidently.

No matter how powerful the Mongol cavalry were, they were an army composed of ordinary people.

And the Great Han Empire's six major legions were all armies composed of Postnatal martial artists.

The combat power of the two sides was simply not on the same level.

"Your Majesty, this subordinate's meaning is to divide the six major legions into three routes."

"The first route army departs from Lin'an Prefecture to the north, attacking along the direction of the Jin Kingdom."

"The second route army departs from Xingzhou, attacking Western Xia and the Mongols."

"The third route army attacks Liaoxi and the Western Regions."

"As for the remaining Tubo and Dali, just wait until our Great Han destroys the Mongols, and then send a few Tribute to go."

When Guo Jia began to speak, soldiers immediately opened the map that had been prepared long ago.

And as Guo Jia introduced, everyone looked at the map and listened seriously.

After Guo Jia finished speaking, everyone began to think.

"Your Majesty, this subordinate feels that Fengxiao's words are feasible."

"Since the Mongols are mainly cavalry, they will not ambush us."

"As for the Jin Kingdom and Western Xia, they still have to guard against the Mongols in the north, and they cannot dispatch many troops; we can just happen to conquer them quickly."

"Our great army is equipped with Spirit Stone Cannons; attacking cities is actually much easier for us."

"As for Dali, it is merely lingering on its last breath; it is not worth worrying about."

"And Tubo, because of the terrain, is not conducive to great army conquest, so it is most suitable for a few Tribute from the Hall of Worship to take action!"

Jia Xu, who had been thinking below, said solemnly to Liu Bian.

"Your Majesty, this subordinate agrees with the two adults' strategy."

Just as Jia Xu's voice fell, Xun Yu also said to Liu Bian.

After listening to the three people's words, Liu Bian nodded slightly.

He said with authority to the crowd:

"Very well, since you all agree, then follow what Fengxiao said."

"Adding the 100,000-strong Xiangyang Army, it is exactly 600,000 troops."

"Divided into three route armies, each route army is exactly 200,000 people."

"As for how to divide them specifically, you decide among yourselves; I only want the results." ===== CHAPTER 537 =====
