MTL - Getting Simulated By The Empress Is Not My Intention-Chapter 158 【Emperor Yan: Yan Qingwu】

  Chapter 158 [Emperor Yan: Yan Qingwu]

  Wei Guo, Wei Yao wants to carry out reforms, she thinks that if this continues, the fate of Wei Guo will definitely be the same as before, slowly being emptied by Yan Guo until it can no longer support it.

  In the court hall, Wei Yao said: "In recent years, our country Wei has traded with Yan country, and money and food have been flowing out of our country Wei. On the other hand, our country has not earned money from Yan country. In the past, the treasury is empty and the national strength is declining."

   "This king wants to implement the new law and get rid of the disadvantages. Who has a feasible strategy?"

  In the court hall, all the ministers of the state of Wei lowered their heads, and no one came out to speak.

  First, they don't understand this kind of commercial policy, and the sage books never mention it; second, these courtiers are all landowners.

  If reforms are carried out, their own interests will be damaged, and they are naturally unwilling to contribute.

   After a long time, Gongsun Yan came out and said: "Your Majesty, I think that following the example of Yan State, the government will come forward to manage commerce and markets."

  Although Gongsun Yan is willing to contribute, he is not very proficient in this area, so he can only offer some opinions.

   "That's all." Wei Yao said.

  【Wei State began to carry out commercial and trade reforms. The reform has been successful for several years. However, due to the gap in productivity and production technology, the wealth of Wei State is still being lost to Yan State. 】

  With the loss of wealth, the problem of land annexation in Wei State became more serious, and more and more people lost their land and became refugees.

  Some of these refugees became bandits, some fled famine, and some even directly raised the flag of rebellion and caused chaos in the country.

  At this time, Zhang Beichen began to send money, food and equipment to the "rebels" in Wei State, so that they could continue to make trouble.

  【Three years later, the state of Wei became even more chaotic. The king of Wei used Gongsun Yan to carry out drastic reforms, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the nobles of the state of Wei. The above policies could not be implemented when they arrived. 】

   "It's time!" Zhang Beichen saw that everything was almost ready, so he asked King Yan for orders to conquer Wei.

  【The king of Yan appoints you as a general, leading 500,000 troops, to march against Wei. 】

  【Wei Wang appointed Pang Ming as a general, and dispatched 400,000 troops to fight. 】

  …

  Wei Guo, Pang Ming entered the school field in armor and inspected the soldiers.

  After breaking through the holy realm, he extended his life for more than a hundred years, and he is still in his prime. Before that, he was suppressed by Zhang Beichen everywhere in the Battle of Chu State. After returning, he even started to learn how to cultivate himself. Now he seems to be much calmer.

   But as soon as he arrived at the school, Pang Ming's more than ten years of self-cultivation was immediately broken!

  On the school grounds, the soldiers were listless, and there were many old, weak, sick, and emaciated people among them.

  Even the military soldiers of Wei whom he was proud of contained many impostors. Pang Ming knew at a glance that these people had not been trained at all, and they were all recruited by temporary Latin heroes.

  He asked the adjutant angrily: "What's going on? In just ten years, how did my Wei army become like this? What kind of fighting power can such an army have?"

  The adjutant said helplessly: "At present, these people are all drawn from all over the country. It is not bad to be able to gather so many."

   "Bastard!" Pang Ming looked at the demoralized army, feeling furious in his heart.

  He got a deeper understanding, only to find that Wei Jun's situation was worse than he expected. Over the years, some people have been corrupting Wei Jun. Some of his former subordinates all had big bellies, oily mouths, and neglected training.

   Corruption is endless. Military pay is deducted, military rations are embezzled, and even combat weapons are stolen and sold.

  Pang Ming knew that if such an army faced Zhang Beichen, it would only be defeated.

  So he began to rectify military discipline and started killing. Killed hundreds of officers, large and small, and disbanded as many as 200,000 old, weak, sick and disabled.

  Not only can these people not increase their combat effectiveness, they will also hold back and consume food and grass. Instead of this, it is better to leave only those who can fight and defend the city, and there is still a chance to stop the Yan army.

  …

  【You lead troops to fight against Pang Ming. Pang Ming has rich experience and relies on the city to block the attack of the Yan army. 】

  Zhang Beichen had to sigh with emotion, this Wei country is indeed prosperous, and there are still many talents in the country. It is too difficult to destroy it quickly.

   But he is not in a hurry at this time. Pang Ming can indeed block the attack from the outside, but can he block the attack from the inside?

  【Relying on the strong national power of Yan, you and Pang Ming started a protracted war. Pang Ming adopted the strategy of only defending but not attacking. He fought for half a year and lost only a few cities. 】

  …

  In the state of Wei, many officials in the court have begun to attack Pang Ming.

   "Your Majesty, Pang Ming is cowardly and incompetent. He hasn't taken the initiative to attack once in half a year. I think he is not suitable to be a general."

   "It's a big taboo for military strategists to change generals before the battle. Does this principle still need to be taught by the king?" Wei Yao scolded.

   "Your Majesty can issue an order to urge General Pang Ming to go to war."

   "General Pang Ming is too cautious."

  These courtiers didn't feel pain in their backs when they stood and talked, and Pang Ming was not here anyway, so they attacked him one by one.

   This is because when Pang Ming directly rectified military discipline, he killed many of their people and took away their benefits, which caused their dissatisfaction.

  Furthermore, you can also take the opportunity to place your own people in the army.

  In the beginning, facing these attacks on Pang Ming, Wei Yao suppressed them all and let Pang Ming play by himself.

   But time passed and the situation changed.

   "Your Majesty, I report that Pang Ming's son is corrupt and broke the law. He is greedy for military pay!" A courtier presented evidence to report Pang Ming.

  Of course Wei Yao knows that Pang Ming is not a clean and honest person, he is just as greedy for enjoyment as Young Master Jiu. Young Master Jiu was kicked out of court by her as early as the beginning of the imitation.

   But Pang Ming is talented, so she temporarily tolerated Pang Ming's problems. She still understands the truth that when the water is clear, there will be no fish.

  But because of this, Pang Ming and his family became more arrogant. Pang Ming himself rectified military discipline in the front, but he didn't want his son to start greedy for military pay.

  Wei Yao began to feel embarrassed. Now that Pang Ming is fighting on the front line, if he disposes of his son, it is inevitable that he will feel dissatisfied and even defect.

   If it is not dealt with, it will deal a great blow to Wei's law and order and his own dignity.

  Wei Yao had no choice but to say: "At this time, the king personally sends people to investigate, and we will make a judgment after the evidence is solid."

  She was actually procrastinating, and at the same time, Wei Yao ordered someone to send a letter to Pang Ming. Tell him to concentrate on fighting, and his child's affairs have not yet been decided.

  When Pang Ming saw the letter, he was both moved and suspicious.

  The confidant asked: "General, Your Majesty obviously wants to keep the young master for you. Why are you so unhappy?"

Pang Ming sighed and said, "Your Majesty has a lot of trust in me. But I have been fighting outside all year round, so the Majesty is inevitably dissatisfied. There is another courtier in the rear who criticizes this general. It's okay if the time is short, but the time is long. You can't stop the ministers Youyou's mouth!"

  Pang Ming knew very well, not to mention his own children, he had done a lot of illegal things in these years, and when letters of reports were flying all over the sky, how could King Wei protect him?

  【Pang Ming continued to defend the Yan army. In the court of Wei State, courtiers reported more and more illegal activities of Pang Ming. 】

  Because of Wei Yao's protection of Pang Ming, the members of Pang Ming's family became more arrogant.

   No, Pang Ming's grandson Pang Mu's car was rampaging in the city and killed someone in the street.

   This person is also a well-known local sage who once served in the court.

  After hitting someone to death, the yamen sent someone to arrest him, but he actually beat the servant to death with a whip, and charged the county yamen with his servants, and the county magistrate fled in embarrassment. This kind of behavior caused anger and resentment.

  The common people jointly reported and asked the king of Wei to make decisions for them.

   "Your Majesty, if you don't kill this son, it will be difficult to quell public anger!" The courtiers seized the opportunity and suggested that Wei Yao kill Pang Mu immediately.

   "Your Majesty, don't take him into custody anymore, otherwise the next time the people will be angry, not Pang Mu, but your Majesty!" At this time, even Gongsun Yan came out to suggest murder.

   "Kill it!" Wei Yao sighed secretly in her heart, she knew that with Pang Ming's suspicious character, if she killed Pang Mu, he would definitely be suspicious.

   But if she doesn’t kill her now, she won’t be able to step down herself.

  【You ordered Pang Mu to be executed, and the people applauded. 】

   When this incident spread to the front line, Pang Ming became seriously ill after hearing about it! As a holy land, ordinary diseases will not affect him at all. This disease is caused by a heart disease and a problem in his practice.

  Pang Ming said to his cronies: "Get ready to fight."

  The confidant was puzzled and said: "General, we are not the opponents of the Yan army. Isn't it self-defeating if we go to war in this matter?"

  Pang Ming sighed: "Your Majesty can no longer suppress the mouths of the ministers, and soon there will be a king's order to fight."

   Sure enough, more than a month later, the king's order to fight came.

  Pang Ming could only drag his sick body and lead troops to meet the enemy.

  Zhang Beichen has been recharging his energy these days, and Pang Ming is defending the city, so he will not attack, only put pressure on Wei State, and block the road for Wei State to import Yan State products.

  Wei State is heavily dependent on Yan State for its domestic commodities. As a result, there will inevitably be a shortage of supplies in Wei State, and the domestic chaos will become even worse.

  【Pang Ming's army was dispirited, and the general himself had no intention of fighting. He was defeated in a row, and the Yan army took dozens of cities in a row. 】

  In Wei Palace, Wei Yao has sent Gongsun Yan to fight.

  The courtiers kept arguing in the hall every day, but Wei Yao didn't care at all.

  Ever since she killed Pang Ming's grandson that day, she knew that she was about to lose in this simulation. So instead of getting a headache from being noisy every day, it's better to just lie flat.

   These days, Wei Yao either hangs up the phone to host, or plays around, researching new clothes, singing and dancing.

  【The Wei army was defeated, news of the city's fall continued to spread, the country became more and more turbulent, and rebellions appeared everywhere. 】

  Originally relying on the background of Wei State, Wei State should be able to survive for a few more years, but Wei Yao chose to play badly, and the speed of Wei State's defeat directly super doubled.

  【One year later, King Wei was poisoned to death while enjoying a banquet in the palace. 】

   "Why did the king die?" This wave of Wei Yao is in trusteeship, and she doesn't care at all. She is still planning to wait for the state of Wei to perish, and go to Zhang Beichen's mansion to continue eating, drinking and having fun.

   I didn't expect my own people to disappear!

  When the country is about to perish, all kinds of chaos will appear. Until her death, Wei Yao didn't know who poisoned her.

   "It's really unlucky, it seems that we can only see Mr. Beichen next time!" Wei Yao felt a little depressed.

  When the king of Wei died, the state of Wei became even more chaotic.

   The Yan army can’t be stopped outside, and the palace is still fighting for the throne

   After tossing for half a year, the new king was finally about to ascend the throne, and the Yan army rushed into the city.

  【The king of Wei led the officials of the state of Wei to surrender to the Yan army. 】

   "Xiao Wang is willing to present a surrender form to King Yan, and please treat King Yan and the general kindly." The new King Wei tried to gain glory and wealth with Zhang Beichen.

  However, Zhang Beichen doesn’t like this at all, and Wei Yao is gone, so what do you need?

   "Kill them all!" Zhang Beichen ordered directly.

  The soldiers rushed up and started killing randomly.

   "Zhang Beichen, you butcher!"

   "This king is the king of Wei!"

   "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have surrendered!"

  No matter what the officials of the Wei State said, Zhang Beichen directly killed them all, lest they would jump out to make trouble again when the Yan State ruled.

  【After one year, you quelled the rebellion in Wei State. So far, the whole territory of Wei State was annexed by Yan State, and Yan State unified the world. 】

  …

   "This will rule the world?" Yan Qingwu was a little suspicious of life when she heard the battle report.

  In her mind, just keeping the country of Yan alive is an extremely difficult task.

  Who would have thought that the country of Yan would also annex the world!

   And to be fair, she doesn't think she has this level of talent. She only did one thing, that is, what Zhang Beichen said to support her was over!

   "Your Majesty, my country of Yan is going to prosper!" Guo Guang was overjoyed. He has never broken through the holy realm, and time is running out.

  But if the Yan Kingdom unites the world and the fortune of the country rises sharply, he has a chance to break through the holy realm and prolong his life for more than a hundred years!

   "Teacher, prepare for the enthronement ceremony. When the prime minister returns to the country, this king will ascend the throne!" Yan Qingwu said.

   "Okay!" Guo Guang immediately happily went to make arrangements.

  …

  Zhang Beichen's class returned to the court, and the king of Yan led the officials of the state of Yan out of the city to greet him.

  Yan Qingwu threw herself into Zhang Beichen's arms regardless of the king's image. Fortunately, they are already married, so it is not considered rude.

  …

  【Two months later, King Yan held a grand enthronement ceremony in Jicheng. 】

  On the altar, King Yan worshiped the ancestors and heaven.

  Zhang Beichen stood aside.

  Yan Qingwu was wearing an azure imperial robe with the totem of Yan country tattooed on it. Her appearance is exquisite, her skin is as white as porcelain, and her whole body is like a work of art carved from heaven, every detail is perfect! And her demeanor is a bit more cold and noble than before.

  After Yan Qingwu sacrificed to the sky, a golden swallow flew from the sky and landed on her shoulder.

   This is the totem of Yan State, a kind of black bird. In order to distinguish it from the black bird of Qin State, the people of Yan State call it the Golden Swallow.

   Immediately afterwards, the fate of the sky turned into a dragon and descended, and the fate of the country of Yan skyrocketed.

   "Yan Kingdom ruled the world and annexed the seven countries. From now on, I will be Emperor Yan, and rule the world!" Yan Qingwu said loudly.

   "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The officials bowed down and called the empress.

   "Another empress!" Zhang Beichen rejoiced in his heart, and finally assisted King Yan to become an empress.

   "Unexpectedly, Yan Qingwu can also become emperor." Zhao Yun was also present, feeling quite emotional in his heart, Zhang Beichen really has the ability to turn decay into magic!

   "Brother Beichen is even more powerful!" When everyone was watching Yan Qingwu, Hao Ziyi's eyes were all about Zhang Beichen. She knew that without Zhang Beichen, King Yan would definitely not be where he is today.
