Chapter 218 Han Xin's Plan to Force the Emperor to Abdicate

"These guys, at this time, are still thinking about some bullshit imperial edict! Do they think that a piece of scrap paper can decide everything?!"

Chu Yang couldn't help but curse under his breath.

Xun Yu took the letter, read it carefully, and then shook his head slightly.

"It seems like we are facing a bad time. However, since this centurion dared to come with a letter, it means that they don't want to fight anymore."

"Don't want to fight? Then what do they want to do? Do they think that they can force me to surrender like this?!"

Chu Yang was so furious that he wanted to lead his troops to attack immediately and kill all those stubborn guys.

"Your Highness, calm down."

Xun Yu still looked calm, "In my opinion, this matter needs further consideration. Since they want the imperial edict, we will give it to them."

"Give it to them? Mr. Xun, are you confused? We don't have any imperial edict in our hands now? Even if we have it, it's fake. Will they believe it?"

Chu Yang looked at Xun Yu with confusion, wondering if he was confused because of anger.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. We still need to make long-term plans. I observed the stars yesterday and found Sirius..."

the other side.

The Imperial City of Great Zhou.

A few days later, Han Xin led a huge army and arrived at the towering imperial city.

He was wearing armor and riding a black warhorse, like a god of war descending to the earth.

Thinking back to the beginning, he surrendered to Chu Yang but was not valued. He was just given 50,000 troops and told to do whatever he wanted.

Now his 50,000-strong army not only defeated the entire Turkic territory, but also made Chu Yang the emperor of the Great Zhou.

"Report! General, Lord Xiao sent a message saying that His Majesty has been sidelined and now the Imperial Guards can no longer be mobilized!"

A scout came riding over, knelt on one knee, and reported loudly.

"Oh? It seems that things are going better than we thought."

Han Xin curled his lips into a sneer, then dismounted, took a golden seal from his personal soldier, and strode towards the city gate.

"I am Han Xin, the general guarding the Great Periphery Pass. I am now in charge of the entire Turkic territory. I have come to the palace to report!"

Han Xin held up the golden seal, and his voice was like a loud bell, echoing throughout the entire city wall.

The defenders on the city wall looked at each other in bewilderment; no one had ever seen such a scene.

They had never heard of "Han Xin", let alone knew that the Turks had been conquered by the Great Zhou.

"General, are you mistaken? Did the Turks fight with me?" a guard asked bravely.

Han Xin sneered, took out the golden seal and held it high above his head.

"Open your dog eyes and see clearly, what is this?!"

The guard looked puzzled, then trotted downstairs and rode his horse to Han Xin's side.

Seeing the golden seal in Han Xin's hand, he looked it up and down and took it.

"Is this true or false? How can we tell the difference?"

"You don't know whether it's true or not, but I'm a key official in recovering the entire Turkic territory. If something goes wrong, can you afford it?"

Hearing this, the guard said with disdain: "That means you can't get in."

Just as the two were discussing, Xiao He came running with a secretary and several nobles.

Shouted: "Welcome back General Han!"

Hearing this, the guard turned his head and felt relieved.

He knew that if he didn't let them go, he might get into trouble, but what if he let them go and these people turned out to be rebels!

After thinking for a moment, he said, "General Han, please let your army set up camp outside the imperial city, and you can lead your personal soldiers into the city."

"Hmph, you're just wasting time."

Han Xin sneered and then led more than a hundred personal soldiers into the imperial city in a mighty manner.

at the same time.

In the Jinluan Palace.

The atmosphere was suffocating and depressing.

Emperor Yongning sat upright on the dragon throne, his face looking terribly gloomy.

Ever since being placed under house arrest by Chu Zhenzhou, he has been in extreme anger and fear.

"Your Majesty, General Han requests an audience!"

A eunuch reported cautiously.

"Han Xin? Which Han Xin?" Emperor Yongning frowned and searched desperately for information about 'Han Xin' in his mind, but found nothing.

"Your Majesty, I don't know. However, General Han claimed to be the border guard and said that he had pacified the Turks and came to report to you."

The eunuch lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Emperor Yongning's eyes.

"Pacified the Turks?"

Emperor Yongning stood up suddenly, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.

He didn't expect that there was such a powerful general in the Great Zhou. Now all his sons had led their troops away, and he had no soldiers available.

Now a fierce general suddenly appears on the border!

Thinking about it makes me excited.

"Quick! Tell him to come in!"

Emperor Yongning said impatiently, as if he had grasped the last straw.

"General Xuan Han is here to see you!"

The eunuch sang loudly.

Over time.

Outside the Golden Palace, Han Xin strode with big steps, like a dragon and a tiger, followed by more than a hundred personal soldiers, all of whom held their heads high and looked murderous.

Inside the hall, civil and military officials stood on both sides, with their heads lowered, silent as a mouse.

The old hands in the court know the situation of the Turks better than anyone else. They are a tough nut to crack and the Great Zhou has suffered a lot from them over the years.

Now, several princes have their own troops. At this moment, a little-known "Han Xin" appears and claims to unify the Turks. How can this not be shocking!

No one was sure what to do and could only secretly look at Emperor Yongning's expression.

At this time, Han Xin knelt on one knee, raised the seal in his hand high above his head, and spoke loudly.

"General Han Xin pays respect to His Majesty!"

"I love you!"

Emperor Yongning couldn't wait to stand up from the dragon throne, took two steps at a time to come to Han Xin, and helped him up with his own hands.

"My dear minister, there is no need to be polite. Tell me quickly, what is going on with this Turkic people?"

Han Xin did not pretend. He stood up and handed the seal of the Turkic Khan to the eunuch beside him.

"Your Majesty, I discovered that the Turks were in turmoil a few days ago, and the border commander was transferred by the crown prince to suppress the bandits. I took the initiative to conquer the entire Turkic territory in one fell swoop. Today, I come to apologize to Your Majesty!"

"Hahaha……"

Hearing this, Emperor Yongning not only did not blame him, but burst into laughter.

"What crime have you committed? When a general is on the battlefield, he may not obey military orders. Moreover, you have unified the Turks, which is an unprecedented achievement!"

"Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. I am ashamed to accept it!"

Han Xin cupped his hands and said.

"My dear minister, you are too modest. I have decided..."

Having said this, Emperor Yongning paused, glanced at the civil and military officials in the hall, as if to demonstrate his authority, and he raised his voice and continued.

"From today on, Han Xin will be appointed as the commander-in-chief of the border, guarding the western border and in charge of all military affairs!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire court was in an uproar.

You know, not everyone can be the commander-in-chief of this frontier. He is a high-ranking official who commands a large number of troops and is in charge of a region!

Now, Emperor Yongning actually gave such an important position to an unknown "unknown young man". How could this not be shocking!
