"The Emperor personally leads the troops? The Emperor of the Great Tang?" Li Changhe and the Moon God were taken aback.
"Your Majesty... doesn’t he know that if anything happens to him, even if the Ratn are defeated, the Great Tang would still be considered a loser?" Li Changhe hadn’t thought about this. Is this trying their utmost?
Shouldn’t it be using all the officials, the imperial guards, and the yan attendants, and then let those civil and military officials devise a tactic that would make up for the technological gap between the two sides as much as possible?
At this ti, the Great Tang had many masters, such as Fang Mou, Du Duan, Li Jing, Qin Shubao, and Cheng Zhijie in literature and martial arts...
Even the existence of many Transcendents. No need to choose such a dangerous thod.
"Didn’t you guys dissuade him? His Majesty is very fond of rits. But these Ratn are different from the countries around them. It’s too dangerous." Li Changhe frowned and said, "The Eternal Prosperous Tang he seeks hasn’t been realized yet, why would he take the risk himself?"
Father Xia’s face took on a strange look, and then he sighed with relief, "His Majesty has foreseen that you would say so. Well..."
"His Majesty summons the General of the Thousand Cattle Guard into the palace to discuss." Father Xia suddenly said solemnly.
Who? Li Changhe was puzzled. Seeing the Moon God looking at him, he then realized, patting his forehead, that it seed to be about himself... having been made so general yesterday.
It’s ridiculous, Li Changhe isn’t even from the Tang Dynasty... it’s useless to make him an emperor...
What more to discuss now? Why not go to the sky? Are they giving a salary?
Li Changhe silently complained in his heart. After exchanging glances with the Moon God, he followed Father Xia out of the mansion.
But the smile on Moon God’s face disappeared. Li Changhe being taken into the palace ant that [Players] could no longer stay out of the matter.
"Well, this is the sa as our plan. Since [Evolution Ga] doesn’t allow us to stay idle, let’s see if those Ratn can withstand my Moonlight Throne!" The Moon God muttered, then turned and inford the other [Players].
On the other hand, Li Changhe also thought of this but showed no expression.
As it should be, [Evolution Ga] wouldn’t let Li Changhe and the others pass so easily by involving [Players] in the plot.
The scorching noon sun shone fiercely on the imperial palace, making it sowhat dazzling.
Li Changhe instinctively observed the surroundings with his [Eagle’s Demon Eye], and many soldiers were watching him in secret.
At this ti, Yun Ting hadn’t recovered yet, and Li Changhe didn’t dare let her risk sensing the surroundings. Even so, he discovered more than forty masters lurking in the shadows with just the [Eagle’s Demon Eye].
Judging by their incomprehensible speed and body techniques, they were all Transcendents.
Are they on alert for the Ratn? Or the [Players]? Li Changhe felt both were possible.
Along the way, Father Xia did chat with Li Changhe and introduced the layout of the palace.
After about half an hour of walking, Li Changhe finally saw that handso uncle.
At this mont, the emperor was wearing the Armor of Light, holding a cross knife in his hand. In the sunlight, he looked like a shining deity.
Many armored soldiers stood behind him, ready for battle at any ti.
"You’ve arrived?" The handso uncle saw Li Changhe and smiled faintly, showing an unrivaled aura.
"I’ve arrived," Li Changhe silently complained in his heart. Of course, these words were just thoughts in his heart. Saying them out loud would result in getting chopped up.
"Your Majesty." Li Changhe honestly bowed.
"You can relax. I’ve seen your history. Calling an ancient man like ’Your Majesty’ must feel rather strange to you." The handso uncle waved his hand, appearing quite laid-back.
"I heard you want to personally lead the expedition?" Li Changhe thought to himself, you might not care, but the soldiers behind you don’t think that way. Just getting near them, their eyes were already on my neck. It’s as if they were considering where to start.
"That’s right. With the enemy having reached Changan, how can a man like , an emperor, hide in the palace?" The handso uncle laughed and ordered soone to bring a map of Changan. His finger pointed at Huaiyuan Square on the map: "I will lead the troops here to kill the Ratn."
Li Changhe frowned slightly. He had roughly calculated the Great Tang’s attack plan before coming.
Since they were fighting on their ho turf in Changan, they didn’t have to worry about logistics or morale. It could be said that the soldiers at this ti were even stronger than when they fought in foreign lands.
There were many thods as well.
Since the range of the Ratn’s activities was limited to the underground of Longevity Square, it could be deduced that the underground was full of crisscrossing tunnels. Master Yuan seed to have calculated this aspect, so there was no need to worry about Ratn suddenly erging from other places.
The first thod was fire attack. As long as they could determine the ventilation points in the tunnels and destroy them, they could use the upgraded incendiary bombs provided by the [Players] to burn the entire tunnel system. Even if they couldn’t burn all the Ratn, they could suffocate them. If they were lucky and encountered so marsh gas or sothing, the effect would be even better. Explosion is art! After witnessing the power of the incendiary bombs, the Tang generals completely agreed.
Unfortunately, the scouts couldn’t find the ventilation points before they were killed by the Ratn. They probably alerted the snakes by then...
The second thod was a water attack. The Ministry of Works of the Great Tang calculated the distance between digging a canal and directly connecting it to Longevity Square. They said they could do it in five months. If they could use incendiary bombs to clear the way, it would be faster... This wasn’t useful anymore.
The third thod was a siege. Like laying siege to cities, they would surround Longevity Square completely, build defensive fortifications, use catapults, Eight Ox Crossbows, and incendiary bombs to prevent Ratn from breaking out. Starve them! Wear them out!
But this thod wouldn’t work either. Ratn were different from other cities; they had Teleportation Gates... The number of soldiers wasn’t a problem, and as for food, they could eat the corpses of their own kind...
Then, the fourth thod was to attack from all sides. In the past, Li Yunlong used this tactic to conquer Ping’an County City. They would also send elite teams to destroy the Ratn’s Teleportation Gates directly. At that ti, the Ratn could only submit.
However, this thod would result in too many casualties, and the technological power gap would be hard to make up for. The Tang soldiers attacking the Ratn would have a slim chance of survival.
Moreover, the Ratn weren’t stupid. They didn’t lose to humans in their wisdom, so they wouldn’t be easily lured out. Unless there was bait they couldn’t resist...
Bait? Crap!
"You want to be the bait?" Li Changhe’s face changed, thinking that he had t a big shot. It was normal for such thoughts to occur in heroes and martyrs, but for an emperor, it was too ridiculous, right? Sacrifice an emperor?
The handso uncle noticed Li Changhe’s expression and laughed heartily, "Sure enough, soone who dares to negotiate with ! You saw through it in an instant!"
"You’re right. I’ll lead the Thousand Cattle Guards and Mysterious Armor Army straight to the Ratn’s lair. Let them pour out of their nests! And you will infiltrate their nest and destroy it!" The handso uncle laughed openly, "As for bait, who can be more attractive than ? I’ll be your bait!"
Li Changhe stared blankly at the handso uncle, thinking that the historical evaluation of him was not unfounded. How arrogant, how proud! Truly befitting of the Li family!
"Dou Jiande’s loss is not unjust. You should indeed be an emperor!" Li Changhe recalled this uncle had once broken through Dou Jiande’s 100,000-strong army with just a hundred cavalryn and unhesitatingly offered his praise.
The handso uncle’s face changed for a mont, and he chuckled softly, "Actually, back then, I just wanted to die with style. While I was posing with my long spear, I accidentally poked the horse’s eye... And then you know the rest."
Li Changhe was stunned, thinking to himself, what kind of horse is this? Give one too!
