The Holy Emperor of Ming

Chapter 294: Saints Are Hard to Kill
"Old Wang, I knew you would be able to break through.

How can a small heavenly realm be difficult for you?

Bang! Bang! "

He smiled excitedly and clapped twice more.

“Cough, cough, cough.” Wang Shouren’s face flushed and he coughed twice. He said helplessly, “Your Majesty, if you hit me a few more times, I will be seriously injured.”

"Oh my." Zhu Houzhao was startled and quickly let go, and asked worriedly: "Old Wang, are you okay?

You have already broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm, why is your body still so weak?"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but complain out of habit and put the blame on others.

Hearing this familiar tone, Wang Shouren smiled warmly and said, "Your Majesty, your power is too strong, and I do not practice martial arts."

"Yes, you still don't know how to fight." Zhu Houzhao joked and laughed, "Whoever believes me is a fool, but you are right, my power is too strong."

"I really don't know how to fight."

Wang Shouren said this very seriously in his heart.

"By the way, Lao Wang, how did you make the breakthrough? What is that righteous energy?" Zhu Houzhao immediately asked curiously.

“Once I figured it out, I naturally made a breakthrough.

As for the great righteousness, it can indeed be considered as great righteousness. It is a kind of power condensed by my mental strength, and it is more powerful against the enemy.

I thought that there would be many enemies in the future, so I condensed it.

Among them, I think there is also the art of war, so I will integrate it with it so that it can be more integrated with the power of the army. "Wang Shouren explained in the most concise words that his majesty could understand.

Sure enough, Zhu Houzhao understood.

Once you understand it, you have a breakthrough. This is very Lao Wang, only slightly worse than me.

Righteous and upright spirit is the concentrated spiritual power and is suitable for the military.

Well, it's simple.

He nodded seriously and praised: "Not bad, you are worthy of being my old king."

Beside them, Zhang Sanfeng and the other two remained silent.

There was a strange and complicated look in his eyes as he looked at Wang Shouren.

Is this the Confucian saint who entered Taoism through Confucianism?
It's really unreasonable.

Once you figure it out, you’ll have a breakthrough.

The legendary righteousness directly joins the path of war.

Thinking~!

That's so easy to say.

Perhaps only His Majesty thinks it is really easy. After all, His Majesty’s cultivation is just as easy.

The three of them looked at Zhu Houzhao again, their eyes met, and they continued to remain silent.

At this moment, even Lord Zheng, who was most familiar with Wang Shouren, could not help but feel surprised and sigh.

It is true that the new generation pushes the old generation forward.

Wang Shouren was considered extraordinary back then, but I didn’t expect him to be so extraordinary.

In such a short time, we have reached this point.

The legendary realm of the Confucian sage.

"By the way, Old Wang, it's a good thing that you are here. Let's discuss how to teach Temujin a lesson and see if we can kill him?" Zhu Houzhao reacted and immediately said hatefully.

"Your Majesty, even if we add more ministers, we can't do anything to Temujin." Wang Shouren shook his head and said solemnly.

"Why? Then Temujin added a Thirteenth Wing, which is equivalent to three Heavenly Realm strength at most. Add the Eighth Master and the two little turtles, and that's six Heavenly Realm combat forces.

I am leading the Emperor Wu Dragon Cavalry, which is equivalent to two people in the Heavenly Realm. Add the four of you, that’s equivalent to six.

And the six of us are definitely stronger.

Give it a try, maybe you can kill him." Zhu Houzhao counted on his fingers.

“Your Majesty is right, Lord Zheng, Master Zhang, and Saint Wuji are all stronger than those three.

Even if they were to fight in a large army, they could still suppress them, and even the aftermath of the battle would be enough to inflict heavy damage to the Thirteen Wings.

But the problem is, Your Majesty, I do not practice martial arts, and the army is my nemesis. Without the army, the power I can exert against the Thirteen Wings will be far less than that of a normal celestial being.

Moreover, Emperor Wu's dragon cavalry only had 10,000 soldiers, and they would surely be defeated if they fought against the Qiexue Army and the Thirteen Wings.

Even if we dispatch several Grandmasters and Grandmasters to fight together, even if we win, how many Wudi Dragon Riders will be left by then?" Wang Shouren said solemnly.

Zhu Houzhao was stunned and suddenly woke up.

He nodded seriously and said, "Old Wang, you are right. How about we lead the army to fight?

Lao Wang, your three armies will attack together."

“Your Majesty, the Thirteenth Army is not at the border, and if nothing unexpected happens, Temujin will soon, at least before we attack, receive news that I have broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm. He will definitely take precautions and will not engage in a head-on confrontation with us.

The Thirteen Wings are all cavalry, and the three armies I lead are mostly infantry, so we can’t catch up with them.” Wang Shouren said slowly.

Zhu Houzhao frowned, thought for a moment and said, "What about directly drawing most of the Ming Dynasty's strong men? Old Wang, facing a large army, you are at least equivalent to half of the realm of heaven and man, plus two great masters of the extreme realm, which is enough to stop the Eighth Division.

The rest of the Grandmasters at the highest level and Grandmasters helped the Emperor Wu Dragon Riders to deal with the Thirteen Wings.

First destroy Temujin and his Thirteen Wings, then return to reorganize the Ming Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, what you said is a method that may succeed." Wang Shouren nodded, and without waiting for Zhu Houzhao to smile, he continued: "The biggest possibility of this battle is to destroy the Thirteen Wings and Quexue Army.

As for Temujin, we can't kill him.

The price to be paid will be the death of countless dragon riders, grandmasters, and even grandmasters at the highest level. The Ming reform will be delayed for several years."

"Is it really impossible to kill Temujin?" Zhu Houzhao frowned.

As for those costs, how can a kind-hearted person command an army?

Anyone could die on the battlefield, and he would never hesitate.

He would not do that unless he specified what someone had to do by dying.

In his opinion, these are two different concepts.

Those who die on the battlefield are heroes.

If victory is achieved by specifying someone's death, that is betrayal and cowardice.

How can a real man do that?
Even if the reform is delayed for several years, it is worth it as long as Temujin can be killed.

Wang Shouren shook his head and said sternly: "Temujin is a rare hero in ancient and modern times, he is not a hero.

When he was young, he would do anything to survive, let alone now?

When the critical moment comes, he will abandon anyone and escape without hesitation.

Such a person is extremely difficult to kill, and no one knows how many tricks he has up his sleeve.

Even if we do it at all costs, the chance of killing him will not exceed 30%. "

Zhang Sanfeng, Wuji, and Zheng Gong all nodded.

It is difficult to kill people in the realm of heaven.

Just like Zhang Sanfeng and Wuji, it was not difficult to defeat the Xiao brothers, and it was even easier to suppress them.

But if they escape, Zhang Sanfeng and the other two will be helpless.

What’s more, he is a hero like Temujin.

"It's not worth it if we can't kill Temujin." Zhu Houzhao shook his head.

In his opinion, it was not worth it at all for the Thirteen Wings and the Qiexue Army to sacrifice their lives for the Dragon Cavalry and the powerful men of the Ming Dynasty.

He took a deep breath. Although he still couldn't kill Temujin, he was not discouraged. Instead, he became more excited.

He said confidently: "Okay, then I will spare Temujin's life for a while. When I am strong enough, I will kill him myself."

"Your Majesty is wise." Wang Shouren said sincerely.

Then he said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Your Majesty, although Temujin is difficult to kill, as long as the reform of the Ming Dynasty is completed, a million strong troops are trained, and the martial arts forces of the Ming Dynasty are integrated.

By then, the Ming army will be able to march forward and flatten Khotan with honor, destroying the Mongols in one fell swoop."

"Hahaha, well said, we'll just push it over when the time comes." Zhu Houzhao's eyes suddenly lit up and he laughed.

"Your Majesty, I would like to transfer the 13th Army back to the border. If I lead three armies, I believe I will be able to fight with the strength of two gods.

Your Majesty is equivalent to the fighting power of two celestial beings. In this way, we can spare one or even two celestial beings.

There are many things that can be done." Wang Shouren said with a smile.

The eyes of everyone present lit up and they smiled.

If one or even two people of heavenly realm can be spared, then the Ming Dynasty will be sure to win.

After all, if we can't kill Temujin, we can attack Kublai Khan or even other Mongol khanates.

"Wait." Zhu Houzhao suppressed his excitement and thought: "After Temujin knew that you, my king, had broken through to the heavenly realm, would he also understand this?

Then he led the Thirteen Wings directly towards the Sui Kingdom and attacked it desperately.

If we all go to Sui and fight together, wouldn't that be bad?"

"Your Majesty is right." Wang Shouren smiled with satisfaction. His Majesty has really grown up. He said in a serious tone, "If Temujin does this, it will be perfect.

Fighting in the Sui Dynasty would not be a good thing for our Ming Dynasty and the Mongols.

But relatively speaking, it was worse for the Mongols.

For our Ming Dynasty, it is nothing more than being in a foreign country, not being trusted, having some supply problems, and the fact that Your Majesty is not in the Ming Dynasty, which is not appropriate.

Forcing Temujin to the Sui Dynasty and fighting with him would completely plunge the Mongols into the quagmire of war and drag them to death.

This is the best way to weaken the Mongols at the moment.

Before this, Temujin had kept Your Majesty here and prevented You from getting close to the Sui Kingdom because of this concern.

At the same time, it can also make sure that the Sui Dynasty will never have a chance to revive, and clean up the aristocratic families in the Sui Dynasty in advance."

Zhang Sanfeng and Wuji were shocked and couldn't help but look at Wang Shouren again.

As expected, he is worthy of being the Grand Commander of the Military Cabinet, he is very ruthless.

If they had run to the Sui Kingdom with Temujin and his men, they would have fought each other.

The Sui Dynasty will inevitably be destroyed.

"However, Your Majesty, we still need to worry about one thing." Wang Shouren suddenly said again.

"What?" Zhu Houzhao asked.

"What I am most worried about now is not the Mongols or the Sui Dynasty, but the Song Dynasty." Wang Shouren looked towards the west, his expression becoming extremely solemn.

"Song!" Zhu Houzhao's eyes flashed, and he frowned and said, "According to the latest intelligence, 200,000 Liao cavalrymen are attacking the western border of Song with great momentum.

The Jin Kingdom's 200,000 cavalrymen attacked Bian Jing with great momentum. If the Song Kingdom could no longer stop them, the Jin army would reach the city of Bian Jing in a few days.

However, Bianjing City was the capital of the Song State, and the Song State had a strong foundation, so it was not easy for the Jin State to conquer it.

Although Zhao Ji is a bit useless, as long as Bianjing is not lost, with the strength of the Song State, it should not be a problem to maintain a stalemate with the two countries. "
