Great Tang Southern Emperor

The first thing is the speed of marching. Li Zhi naturally couldn't allow Li Zhen to drive towards Chang'an so fast, so he kept sabotaging him on the road ahead, cutting down a section of the road today, tearing down a bridge tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow. He planted bombs on the side of the road, and poisoned the water source the day after tomorrow... and so on. He used all kinds of methods. Although these methods could not cause too many casualties to Li Zhen, but the toads on the feet - bite can't die Man, he is disgusting.It brought countless troubles to Li Zhen and seriously slowed down the marching speed of the army.

Li Zhen has no good way to do this, she can only spread the rangers to farther places for early detection, but some road sections were destroyed several days in advance (for example, the bridges along the way are all was blown up long ago), Li Zhen could only walk while repairing, as slow as a tortoise.Fortunately, Li Zhi was not brain-dead enough to fight Li Zhen. This only caused him a little trouble, but it didn't cause too many casualties.

Another trouble is that the local officials on the way do not cooperate or even obstruct them. For example, Li Zhen wants to collect local grain, but the keys to the grain depot are all in the hands of the highest local officials, and Li Zhineng stretched out his wooing hand to By Li Zhen's side, the officials along the way would naturally not be spared by him. Under the pressure of various big cakes and sticks, many people were persuaded by his envoys to surrender and joined his camp.When facing Li Zhen, these officials from the King Jin family would naturally not cooperate with his work. Instead, they obstructed him in various ways, and even refused to allow Li Zhen to enter the city, which caused Li Zhen a lot of trouble.

However, Li Zhen is still not good at what to do with them (directly sending troops to attack is definitely not acceptable, otherwise Li Zhen will be positioned as a rebel, and Li Zhi will definitely smear him the next day. In the end, Li Zhen's chamber of commerce bought a large amount of food, which solved the army's food crisis.As for the inability to enter the city, it is not very troublesome. Li Zhen is the prince of the Tang Dynasty after all. Even if Li Zhi usurped the throne and made him the crown prince, he still recognized him as the king of Yue. Even if the local officials still stood in line Li Zhi, but they didn't dare to really neglect Li Zhen, at most they just obstructed it, if Li Zhen insisted, they really didn't dare not open the door.

And the last trouble, which also caused Li Zhen the most headache, was the harassment from Confucianism.Of course, the Confucian harassment was not military harassment. Although the Confucianists had their own military power, they could not pose any threat at all in the face of a 20 army, and they did not dare to blatantly attack Li Zhen.But Confucianism is indeed a master at playing tricks. Since we can't play martial arts, then we will play with you.

What is text?Naturally, it is language lobbying and exhaustion bombing... The specific method is that whenever Li Zhen arrives in a place, there will be local elders and sages asking to see him.However, Li Zhen had to meet these people because of his reputation, but something happened when he saw them... because these elders didn't say how to support him after meeting Li Zhen, but advised him to put the country and society as the most important thing. After all, the uncooked rice has been cooked, and now Li Zhi has succeeded to the throne. If Li Zhen and Li Zhi go to war, then the lives of the people will be ruined, and the Tang Dynasty will inevitably fall into war... So I hope that Li Zhen can exert his spirit and carry forward Kong Rong. Let Li's style, voluntarily give up the throne, don't compete with Li Zhi, to avoid the loss of Tang's national strength, just let foreign countries take advantage of it...

In short, what they said was the same thing, they wanted Li Zhen to withdraw from the battle for the throne... Li Zhen was so angry that he wished to kill all these old things one by one, but unfortunately he couldn't do it.These elders are very prestigious in the local area, and it can be said that they are highly respected. If Li Zhen dares to kill them regardless, then he will lose the support of the local people for a long time, and even once the news spreads, then Li Zhen's reputation will plummet, and it will completely change from being popular at the beginning to notorious.

But it won’t work if you don’t deal with them. At the beginning, those elders were okay, speaking in a curved and soft voice, but as I got closer and closer to Chang’an in the past few days, their tone of voice was also It's getting heavier and heavier, and some even yell at Li Zhen because of their age... Although they can't do any harm to Li Zhen, the problem is that they follow you all day long, and they can't discuss military matters. Like a swarm of flies buzzing around the ear, disturbing, even Li Zhen's children were affected, they couldn't sleep well, and Li Zhen herself was miserable.

"Hehehe, I think about it." Li Zhen sent a group of old men back with a dry smile. It was already the end of Haishi at night, and these old people went back at this time these days to harass him. Difficulty sleeping and eating.

When the figures of these old people were no longer visible, the smile on Li Zhen's face disappeared immediately, and she ordered the guards: "Call Fang Yiai, Du He, Cheng Chuliang, Qin Huaiyu, and Chen Tianlu to this palace."

"Yes." Regardless of the time being midnight, the guard immediately took orders and left.

"Ah...I mean Li Zhen, it's fine if you don't sleep so late, why did you call me here? If you don't tell me clearly, then I will fight you hard." The first one It was Chen Tianlu who came, because he and Sizi were both from the royal family, and they lived in a specially opened royal residence in the military camp. The people who lived here were all the royal family who followed Li Zhen back this time, including Li Zhen. live in this area.

So he is the closest to Li Zhen, but his face at this time is very ugly. If he can't beat Li Zhen, he will probably beat Li Zhen. Even so, he has already deducted a handful of poison in his hand. Without giving a reasonable explanation, he promised to put the poison on Li Zhen's face. Anyway, he also has the antidote, and keeping it can detoxify Li Zhen. Don't you know that disturbing people's dreams is a very wicked thing?Don't think you can bully me because I'm an honest person. It's scary for an honest person to lose his temper, okay?

"Don't worry, I really have something to do with you. I didn't intend to disturb your sleep. I will trouble you for help later." Li Zhen quickly explained that Chen Tianlu is different from others, he made you do what he said, if It really made him unhappy, he really dared to put poison on his face.

"Since it's a serious matter, forget it. Are you worrying about those old people?" Chen Tianlu just has a low EQ, but his IQ is high, so he immediately guessed why Li Zhen called him here: "If you want me to say this You don’t have to be polite to them when you help people who don’t know what’s good or bad, and if you let them spray you, I’ll just sprinkle the poison on them to ensure that they die silently, and no one can find out the reason.”

"How can that be done? They had an accident on our land. Even if others can't find out the evidence, the shit pot will be held on our heads. Absolutely not." Li Zhen was taken aback. If Chen Tianlu Whatever you say and do, as long as you are not an idiot, you will know that Li Zhen did it, okay?After all, so many elders died at the same time, and they all died by Li Zhen's side at the same time, even if Li Zhen did not do this, others would place the first object of suspicion on Li Zhen.

"What can't be done?" Fang Yi'ai and the others opened the curtain and walked in: "I have seen Your Highness, I have seen your son-in-law, Your Highness, is there anything important for you to call your subordinates down this time?"

"It's not an urgent matter, but it is indeed a serious matter." Li Zhen frowned deeply: "You all know that my palace has been harassed by the senior sages who pass by the place these days..."

"We know about this, but for these immortals, there is nothing you can do about it, Your Highness, why don't you just endure it, after taking Chang'an, they will not do anything to your Highness if you think about it It’s gone.” Fang Yi’ai is the only old man who can’t do anything about it. If the younger generation came, then Fang Yi’ai would have served with old fists long ago, but now this group of old men is different. Many of them are half-bodied. It's buried in the ground, and it may fart at any time.

Don't say it's a fight at this time, even if you touch Fang Yiai, you don't dare to touch them-if you touch them, the old man lies on the ground and pretends to be dead, or if he really dies, then Fang Yiai is really The yellow mud fell into the crotch, and it was either shit or shit. Even if he was covered in mouths, he couldn't explain it clearly.Sometimes, just the verbal criticism from the people in the world can force Fang Yiai to commit suicide to thank the world, and even if he is dead, Li Zhen dare not rectify his name.

"I don't think so about this matter. The problem is that people have given me an 'ultimatum' now." When it came to the word 'ultimatum', Li Zhen's tone deliberately increased a lot. You could hear the displeasure in his words.

"how do I say this?"

Li Zhen smiled wryly: "Just now, they have warned me, it is best to give them an answer tomorrow, otherwise they will hang themselves before the gate..."

"Hiss!" All five gasped, both frightened by the ruthless methods of Confucianism, and worried about Li Zhen's future.Not to mention anything else, once these people are really hanged in front of the gate, then as the master, Li Zhen will not be able to escape the responsibility no matter what. After the publicity of those who care, Li Zhen's reputation will be completely stigmatized for thousands of years However, even if Li Zhen wins the throne in the end, this matter will become a stain on Li Zhen's life just like Li Shimin's to Xuanwumen.Even if he did better than Li Shimin after he ascended the throne, it would be difficult to clean up this stain.

Chapter 1254 Solutions

Chapter 2 Solution

"It's such a vicious method, what should I do now?" Qin Huaiyu was impatient, now the other party obviously forced Li Zhen into a corner, or chose to obey their wishes, but in this case, Li Zhen was voluntarily giving up Throne, this is obviously impossible.But if their proposal is to be rejected, most of these old men will choose to hang themselves, and what Li Zhen loses is the popular support—don't think they can't do something like suicide, they are already old, and there are not many people. If you can use your own death to fight for a bright future for the future generations of your family, most of them will stand up and commit suicide without hesitation.

In other words, no matter which one you choose, Li Zhen is doomed to lose the most important thing, which can be described as an extreme dilemma.

"Or, let's beat them unconscious tonight, and then send them out secretly. Then we will set off as soon as possible, leaving them far behind..." Cheng Chuliang had no other choice but to come out with one bad idea.

Du He directly shook his head and vetoed it: "This idea is not good at all. You don't know how slow the marching speed of the 20 troops is. How could they not catch up? What's more, if you send them out, His Highness will fall into the trap." Downwind, you must know that there are spies from the King of Jin guarding outside our camp all the time. Do you believe it or not? body? And if you send out a batch today, there will be more people coming to see His Royal Highness tomorrow, you can't knock them all out, can you?"

Cheng Chuliang irritatedly said: "This is not okay, and that is not okay, so what do you think should be done?"

"How do I know what to do?" Du He said helplessly, "This Confucian move is really too ruthless, no matter what we choose..."

"This bunch of damned Confucians, after the crown prince succeeds, they must all be dismissed." Fang Yiai said bitterly: "At first, I still had a little affection for them, but who knew they would be so hateful For the sake of the so-called inheritance, it is really abhorrent to interfere with the change of the dynasty..."

Qin Huaiyu sighed and said: "This is normal. Academic disputes are life and death. Now His Highness has shown that he does not like Confucianism. Even if he will not depose Confucianism after he ascends the throne, he will definitely not use it. They have long been anxious. Crazy, now that King Jin is usurping the throne, of course they will support King Jin."

"Don't talk about them, let's continue to discuss countermeasures. Let's talk about what to do? Do you want to take the initiative?" Chen Tianlu said: "Actually, everyone don't need to be nervous. Look at Li Zhen's face. He looks like he has something. Do you look troublesome?"

"That's right." He didn't say that everyone hadn't paid attention to it, but seeing Li Zhen's expression now, it was clear that he was confident, so why was there a little bit of worry?

Qin Huaiyu said: "Your Highness, there is nothing we can do. If you have any tricks, come up with them quickly. It is already early in the morning, and the time is short. It will be dawn in a while, and they will come to harass you again. "

"Actually, I don't have any good solutions, but I have a crooked trick." Li Zhen was a little embarrassed, because this trick was not only crooked, but also very harmful. It's not worth it to kill people, and the wicked will die. He hasn't used this trick for a long time. One move, once the outside world knows that he did this, it will damage his majesty as an emperor.

Du He laughed and said, "Your Highness, may I speak out, let's take a closer look?"

"Bengong's trick is very simple. It was Chen Tianlu who reminded me, and I still need your help - that is to poison..."

Before Li Zhen could finish speaking, Cheng Chuliang stood up suddenly: "Your Highness, you must not, poisoning everyone to death at once, it is too... Anyway, this is even more unreliable than my trick."

"Who told you that people must be poisoned to death?" Chen Tianlu interrupted: "Can't I inject a poison that will only hurt the body but not kill you? If it doesn't work, I will give a laxative, a dose of laxative Go down, make sure they can't walk."

"Laxatives are definitely not acceptable. You can't use laxatives." Li Zhen waved his hands again and again. If laxatives were acceptable, then he wouldn't need to look for Chen Tianlu at all. The crotonin in Xuelongwei's hands is not a vegetarian, but it is the most powerful in the world The laxatives are even more terrible things, one drop is enough to make a herd of elephants have diarrhea and kill them alive.

It's just that laxatives are too harmful to the body, even a strong man can't stand Santanxi, let alone an old man?Many of those old people walk tremblingly, their bodies are already exhausted to the extreme, this dose of crotonin may not cause diarrhea, but even their souls will be pulled out, and they may directly send people to heaven Well, what's the difference between that and poisoning?Moreover, the signs of laxatives are so obvious that anyone who has a little understanding of pharmacology can see it. Once people see through it, it will still damage Li Zhen's reputation.

"That's right, you have crotonin, so if you want to take laxatives, you don't need me." Chen Tianlu also wanted to understand the reason behind this: "But this is easy to do, it doesn't hurt the body and it looks serious. I still use it here. Yes. For example, I have a newly researched virus in my hand. Once infected with this virus, chickenpox will appear all over the body, which looks very scary. But you don’t have to worry, because this kind of chickenpox is not fatal. And it doesn't hurt or itch, at most it just consumes a little water in the body, and more importantly, this kind of chickenpox is not contagious, apart from being troublesome to treat, it doesn't consume the vitality in the body... Look at this May I?

If it doesn't work, I have several similar ones here, such as those that can make the whole body fester, the whole body is swollen like a ball, etc. In addition, there are poisons, some that make the whole body paralyzed, some that make people feel miserable, and some that make people feel sick. I'm sore and weak, by the way, I still have the bruised nose and swollen face that you have seen before, and I have improved it a little over the years, and the effect is better... In short, I have many means to make people lose their vitality Yes, but the best choices are the ones I listed. Which one are you going to choose? "

"..." Hearing Chen Tianlu's last sentence without any emotion, everyone shuddered uncontrollably. What kind of mentality did he have when he said this?Could it be that in his mind, human life is worthless at all?As expected of a murderous maniac.

In fact, Li Zhen also knew that Chen Tianlu had mixed up the name of a genius doctor in the Tang Dynasty these years, and some good people even put him and Sun Simiao side by side.But this only refers to his medical skills. If people who really know him, except for Li Zhen, few people would dare to deal with him. I'm afraid that the name of the devil has already been pressed on Chen Tianlu's head.

Dao said that although he seemed to have done nothing in these years, the number of people who died in Chen Tianlu's hands was not [-] but [-], because with Li Zhen's support, Chen Tianlu actually never stopped using living people for experiments. On the contrary, as he does more and more experimental subjects, more and more living people are needed, and every dead body that is sent out is often extremely miserable, because he has injected various viruses into it. After that, he was tortured to death.

Li Zhen once entered his laboratory out of curiosity... I won't talk about what he experienced in it. In short, Li Zhen ran out after only an hour in, leaning on the wall and throwing up. Within three days He didn't eat a bite of food, and he didn't touch any meat for a whole month, and he shunned Chen Tianlu's laboratory since then. The 300 meters near the laboratory was his restricted area, and he would never go beyond this line—to say that Li Zhen was a murderer Yingye is gone, and the number of people who died directly and indirectly at his hands has already exceeded a million, but after seeing Chen Tianlu's laboratory, they still reacted so violently, which shows how horrific the scene inside is.

Apart from Li Zhen, Qin Huaiyu and the others looked unhappy. Although they had never entered Chen Tianlu's laboratory, they knew how many people had died because of Chen Tianlu's virus over the years.Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about Borneo, Luo Zhe’s territory. When Datang occupied this island, the island was not uninhabited, only a group of barbarians, but had formed its own unique culture on the island Civilization, and not just one.

And when the army of the Tang Empire landed, the first enemy they faced was the Poli Kingdom. Although this country is located in the sea, because it is adjacent to the South China Sea, it still has some intersections with the countries on the Indochina Peninsula. Poli's national power is also the strongest on these islands.In addition, their people are very brave (the main race of Poli is the Dayak people, which is the legendary headhunters. Although they already have their own civilization, their civilization is only a little bit. , which is better than compatriots who still live in the jungle, and the custom of headhunting still exists), so facing the intruders Datang, they gave the most hearty block, and Datang was caught off guard and almost died were driven out of the sea by them.

Of course, their victory was limited to this, because Datang quickly reacted, and used cannons to drive them away, successfully landed, and then used cannons to wash the ground along the way, and soon captured their capital.

It's just that the Poli people are not easy to mess with. After losing their capital, they hid in the jungle, and would come out to attack Datang's army from time to time, which brought a lot of trouble to Datang.It was at this time that Chen Tianlu had newly developed a new type of virus, and was worried that there was no place to test it. It happened that Luo Zhe was also visiting Li Zhen, and casually said that Poli was the best place to test it.

So the next thing is very simple. After the virus was released, it quickly infected all the nearby Poli gathering points, and then within a month, the Poli people were completely exterminated. Not only that, the terrible virus also brought The headhunters living in the jungle were all stricken, and almost millions of them were infected to death by the virus. As a result, the northeast corner of Borneo centered on Poli, and within a radius of two hundred miles, there was no human population within that period of time. The wild beasts also ate a brain full of fat.

Just one Poli was killed by Chen Tianlu so many people, not to mention that Datang has used viruses to kill many people in recent years, such as those rebels in the Nanyang jungle. They hide in the depths of the jungle, and Datang is invincible , Later, viruses such as cholera and malaria were used, carried by mice or fleas, or simply thrown by hot air balloons, killing many rebels, and of course some ordinary people were also affected by pond fish.However, the natives of Nanyang are still slaves until now, and they die as soon as they die, and no one cares about them.

And these dead people were all counted on Chen Tianlu, so that some people who knew the inside story regarded him as a big devil, lest they would avoid him, even if it was Du He, Qin Huaiyu and others, although they could not see what he did He is used to it, but he didn't say anything, it's just that he doesn't get close to him very much, and only a few people, such as Li Zhen, still maintain a good relationship with him.

"What kind of expressions are you guys looking at?" Chen Tianlu was a little annoyed by everyone's weird eyes: "If it's okay, tell me, if it doesn't work, I'll go back and find a way... Otherwise, I'll just give them an answer." It's okay to plant a deadly infectious virus, and it's a matter of course to guarantee that they will die one by one. Others can't find out why.

Only then did Li Zhen come to her senses, and quickly said: "No, no, there is no need to get the virus, your chickenpox is good, I will choose the chickenpox, it is best not to hurt people's lives."

"Forget it. I also think that chickenpox is the best. As for killing people, it's impossible. After all, it's just a skin disease, and it can't kill people." Chen Tianlu heard that Li Zhen chose chickenpox, Immediately laughed: "Let me tell you, although my chickenpox virus is not fatal and not contagious, it looks scary, and it scares them to death when it is kept. Moreover, the chickenpox is very troublesome to treat. In addition to understanding this Other than me who has chickenpox characteristics, it is impossible for others to untie it, it is very fun..."
