Chapter 62 Art of War 1

As the voice of the middle-aged man in Confucian clothes came out, a silver bell-like laughter suddenly came from outside the courtyard!

The gray-haired old man was shocked. He was paying attention to the surrounding scenes and didn't know when someone appeared outside the courtyard! He was about to open the courtyard door and go out to check it out. At this moment, a woman in black suddenly appeared on the courtyard wall. The old man was about to stop him. The woman in black had already fallen. She was extremely fast, almost like a shadow, and appeared in front of the bamboo house after a moment!

"Who?" The old man hurried over. He raised all his strength and was ready to take action!

"You retreat!" The middle-aged man in Confucian style waved his hand and said lightly.

Hearing this sound, the old man with gray hair retreated and hid in a corner of the yard.

"I haven't seen each other for more than ten years, Brother Xiaoyao's skills are even better than the past! I was outside the yard just now, Brother Xiaoyao actually discovered my whereabouts. His internal strength is so strong that he has reached the state of innate Great Perfection!" The woman in black said with a giggle.

Her face was covered with a gauze, and she couldn't see her appearance clearly, but her body was extremely graceful, and just her body gave people a sense of being charming in the city!

It turned out that the middle-aged man in Confucian clothes was nothing but Xiaoyaozi! He helped Wanyan Zonghan cross the Yellow River and conquered Kaifeng! Later, he promised Wanyan Zonghan to kill the Prince of Song Dynasty and regain the imperial seal! Therefore, he is now in Hanzhong City!

"I haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and the Demon Queen's light skills are even better. I'm afraid that it's not far from the innate Great Perfection now! The Demon Queen came to the foremost for the Jade Seal of the Nation?" Xiaoyaozi said lightly.

"Not bad! Rumors from the rivers and lakes, this imperial seal was brought to the northwest by the little prince of the Song Dynasty. Now the little prince of the Song Dynasty is in Hanzhong City, so this imperial seal is naturally in Hanzhong City! The imperial seal is crucial to me, and I must get the imperial seal!" The woman named "The Demon Queen" said.

"I promised the Jurchen Marshal to help him get the imperial seal..." Xiaoyaozi said.

"The imperial seal is a treasure of the Central Plains. How can it fall into the hands of the barbarians?" The demon queen interrupted Xiaoyaozi and said.

"The Jurchens helped me destroy the Song Dynasty's royal family, and I should help them do things, which should be." Xiaoyaozi said.

"Now, the royal family of the Song Dynasty has only King Kang except this little prince! With your skills, you can get rid of them all by yourself and no longer need to rely on the Jurchens! Xiaoyaozi, I am going to make up for this imperial seal. Are you going to fight with me?" said the devil queen.

"This..." Xiaoyaozi showed a embarrassed expression on his face.

"I don't think so. I will help you kill the Prince of Song. This imperial seal belongs to me! Although the Prince of Song is young, there must be many guards beside you. If you want to kill the Prince of Song alone, there may be some twists and turns! If I help you, killing the Prince of Song is easy to turn your hand! After killing the Prince of Song, I will go north with you and kill His Highness Kang of Song! King Kang is no better than the Prince. Zong Ze is by his side, and Zong Ze is a top master! In addition, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and others of the Western Army are also rising stars in the Song Dynasty, and they have also entered the innate realm! Without my help, if you want to assassinate King Kang alone, it is not easy!" said the devil queen.

"Let me think about it!" Xiaoyaozi frowned and said.

"The Song Dynasty is already declining. As long as the Jurchens go south again, the Song Dynasty will persecute! The millions of people in the Central Plains will fall under the rule of the Jurchen Tartars in the future and suffer all persecution! Xiaoyaozi, although you have a grudge with the royal family of the Song Dynasty, you have no hatred with the people of the world? You are also a Han Chinese in the Central Plains. When you helped the Jurchen Tartars in order to avenge revenge! Now that you have revenge, there is no need to help them again! You give me the jade seal of the nation. We are all fellow demon sects. In the future, you will be a founding hero. Isn't that good?" said the Demon Queen.

Xiaoyaozi was silent for a long time and said, "Okay! Then let's make up. Help me assassinate the Prince of the Song Dynasty, Your Highness Kang, and I will give you the imperial seal! As for the prosperous era of Datong that you mentioned, I am not interested! How can there be a prosperous era of Datong in this world? It's okay for you to deceive the foolish people. If you want to deceive me, Xiaoyaozi, it's impossible!"

The demon queen laughed and said, "Whether you believe it or not, this is the ambition of the ancestor of my sect. If I take over this sect, I will naturally have to fulfill the ambition of the ancestor! Otherwise, I will not have the shame to meet the ancestor when I come underground!"

Xiaoyaozi shook his head and said, "Your ancestors have gone astray and actually fantasized about establishing a prosperous era of great harmony! Our devil has always been free and free, ignoring all the rules of the law and only seeking freedom for ourselves. This is the right way!"

The Demon Queen shook her head and said, "That kind of free and easy is meaningless! A hundred years later, who remembers you Xiaoyaozi? Your Xiaoyao Sect has a long history, and it has been passed down from ancient times to the present! The ancestor of your Xiaoyao Sect was among the hundreds of schools of thought! But until now, besides our fellow demons, who remembers Xiaoyao? Forget it, this is a dispute over ideas, I won't say much to you! Let's discuss how to assassinate the young prince of the Song Dynasty and obtain the imperial seal!"

Now Xiaoyaozi and the Demon Queen discuss the assassination of Zhao Chen in the bamboo house, and I won’t mention this!

*******

On this day, Zhao Chen was staying in the palace. He was originally waiting for the arrival of Li Gang, Li Ruoshui, Zhe Keqiu and others! Today they were going to discuss the matter of ascending the throne. Things were complicated before ascending the throne, including the determination of the year number, the determination of the date of ascending the throne, the preparation of the throne ceremony, etc., all of which needed to be discussed carefully! Although he, the prince, did not have much practical power, these things could not be avoided by him!

But on this day, Zhao Chen did not see these ministers coming! He wanted to leave the palace, but the soldiers of the Zhe family army refused at all!

At this moment, the captain of the Zhe Family Army, Kang An explained in front of Zhao Chen, and only heard Kang An say: "Your Highness, for your safety, you cannot leave the palace. Please forgive me!"

Zhao Chen smiled. He knew that he could not leave the palace. The reason he did this was just to see these leaders of the Zhe family army! He didn't expect that this person was Kang'an!

"You are now in charge of the guards of the palace?" Zhao Chen said.

"The last general is now the chief manager of the Imperial Camp!" Kang An said.

"Imperial Camp?" Zhao Chen was stunned.

"General Zhe has divided 10,000 soldiers to protect His Highness, which is the Imperial Camp! Currently, there are 2,000 people in the Han Palace, and 8,000 people outside the city! Your Highness is relieved that these Imperial Camp soldiers are the most elite among our Zhe family's army! With them here, Your Highness's safety will be worry-free!" Kang An said.

Zhao Chen sneered in his heart, thinking that with these tens of thousands of elite soldiers, he was completely under house arrest!

"Why didn't you see General Zhe today?" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Highness, we just entered Hanzhong yesterday, and there are still many things to do today! General Zhe is summoning ministers from various prefectures and counties in Hanzhong to come to see Your Highness! In addition, the 100,000 troops entering Hanzhong also need to arrange food and accommodation! In addition, just last night, General Zhe Yanzhi returned, General Zhe was very happy and probably had to ask him about the situation of the battle at that time!" Kang An said.

"Is Zhe Yanzhi actually back?" Zhao Chen felt disappointed. He thought Zhe Yanzhi had died under the iron hoof of the Jurchens, and he did not expect that he could come back!

He disliked the Zhe family very much and wanted to die all the Zhe family troops! He was naturally unhappy when Zhe Yanzhi returned!

"Your Highness, it seems that it will rain. You might as well go back and rest first! Once General Zhe arrives, I will definitely come to inform You!" Kang An said.

"Okay, so I'll have to work hard for the general!" Zhao Chen nodded with a smile.

Kang'an has left. Zhao Chen looked at Kang'an's back and wondered in his heart whether he could recruit Kang'an! Kang'an is now the so-called "Imperial Camp" supervisor. If he could recruit Kang'an, it would be much easier for him to fight against him in the future!

"Zhe Keqiu ordered this person to be the chief supervisor of the Imperial Camp and to guard me, then he must be Zhe Keqiu's confidant! It is not easy to recruit him! It seems that I want to ask someone to investigate his details first and see how close his relationship with Zhe Keqiu is. This is enough! But who can help me investigate?" Zhao Chen's eyes showed a thoughtful look!

After thinking for a while, Zhao Chen couldn't think of a good candidate for the time being! However, he had some ideas of confrontation and struggle!

He stood outside for a moment, and it was drizzling in the sky!

Soon, the endless spring rain fell!

The weather in early spring was still very cold, but some soldiers from the Zhe family had already brought the stove. Zhao Chen sat in front of the room, holding a book in his hand, and was reading it!

Yue Fei was standing beside him at this moment. Yue Fei glanced at him and found it was "The Art of War"!

"Is Your Highness interested in this military strategy?" Yue Fei said curiously.

"This is natural! To recover the Central Plains, to defeat the Tartars, and to eliminate King Kang, the traitor, you must fight! You must understand the art of military affairs when fighting, right?" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Highness is saying!" Yue Fei nodded.

"Although I, the prince, don't have to go to the battlefield in person, it is still necessary to learn military tactics! Brother Yue, I heard that you have also learned military tactics, so let's discuss it together." Zhao Chen said.

"Okay!" Yue Fei was obviously very interested in military tactics and said with a smile.

The two of them discussed together. After a while, Yue Fei said: "Your Highness, the strategy of war is nothing more than a surprise to win! It's just how to do it. This requires the general to master it himself. The way to use the military depends on one's heart!"

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "You are right! The way of using military forces must not be rigid! I have some experience in military tactics to tell you!"

Yue Fei was curious and said, "Your Highness, come on!"

Zhao Chen smiled and said, "I don't know whether it's right or wrong. These were taught to me by a teacher in the palace back then..."
