Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Compared to the turbulent situation in Shangjing, this side of the border is much calmer in comparison.

They are all veteran generals with many years of experience and have gained experience in fighting with the Beiting people. Even if a small-scale battle breaks out from time to time, it is all within the controllable range.

It was not until the emperor’s decree came that Generals Xu and Fang were dumbfounded.

The emperor actually asked them to find a way to take Beiting. Seeing the order from above, Generals Xu and Fang suddenly found it difficult to breathe.

For a moment, the two of them even thought about how to die to atone for their sins without implicating their families.

Then they saw that the emperor had decided to send reinforcements and the reinforcements would arrive soon, and Generals Xu and Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, His Majesty still has some sense of propriety and does not ask them to destroy a country out of thin air. However, how to fight still requires careful planning.

Generals Xu and Fang originally thought so, but when they saw the reinforcements, they felt that there was no need to go through so much trouble.

The reason why Beiting can defeat ten with one is simply because they mainly feed on meat such as cattle and mutton. Eating more meat naturally gives them strength. However, this group of elite soldiers specially trained by Ye Shuo are exactly the same. In terms of comprehensive quality, they are much stronger than Beiting.

With advanced training methods, more advanced weapons, and two full years of experience on the battlefield of Chen State, this team as a whole is like a sword drawn from its sheath, and wherever the blade points, it makes people feel terrified.

The present is definitely different from the past. If this knife is used properly, conquering Beiting may not be a foolish dream. Even Generals Xu and Fang were slightly shocked. Then they looked at each other and sighed in their hearts that this was going to be a good show.

This was indeed the case. When this team was fully deployed on the battlefield, Beiting finally understood why the State of Chen had been defeated so quickly before.

But at this time they still did not take the support of the Great Zhou seriously. There was no way. The national conditions of Chen and Beiting were too different. Chen was fixed there, and if its capital was attacked, it would have to be destroyed. Beiting was different. It didn’t matter even if its capital was occupied by others. It could just wait until it had recovered and taken it back.

There were only two things that made Beiting irritated. The first was that the locusts came again. The second was that there seemed to be a few people from the Great Zhou who were holding something unknown and kept aiming at the heads of their generals.

They already knew that the leader of the locusts was one of Emperor Zhou’s men, but they had no idea what that black thing was. They only knew that once they were hit by that thing, they would almost certainly die.

At first, the generals of Beiting thought that they only needed to wear an extra layer of helmet or make the helmet thicker, but they found that the thing could not even protect the helmet. Ordinary iron tools were like paper in front of it and could be penetrated in an instant. Once the general died, the remaining soldiers would be nothing but a pile of scattered sand no matter how brave and good they were.

When the first explosion sounded, even Generals Xu and Fang were startled. What was that so loud? And when Generals Xu and Fang saw that the heads of the bodies being swept up were like exploding watermelons, they were more than just frightened. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were terrified.

Even crossbows made of fine steel are far from having such an effect. If everyone in the army is equipped with such a thing… they can’t even imagine what the scene would be like.

When they arrived at the battlefield, Generals Xu and Fang wanted to step forward and ask out of curiosity, but they were stopped in time by a man who claimed to be a supervisor.

Generals Xu and Fang then realised that the existence of these four people was top secret. The emperor had issued a gag order, and even they, the highest officials in the army, had no right to interfere. No wonder there was nothing written on the surface of the documents. It can be said that except Ye Shuo, the person who gave the order, and Zou Wu, the person who created it, no one else knew about this.

This can be said to be the second time that Ye Shuo has displayed weapons that are beyond this era. Compared to the previous purpose of deterrence, this time he just wants to reduce his own casualties as much as possible. As long as the enemy dies, won’t there be fewer deaths on their side?

Ye Shuo always felt that since his coming here was an established fact, the things in his mind were also part of him and could naturally be used. However, he had to think carefully about what to use and how to use them.

Ye Shuo never underestimates the wisdom of the ancients. With the current productivity, if the production method of the things he can produce is leaked, State Chen and Bei Ting will also be able to make them. As for the more advanced ones, others cannot make them. Even if there are production methods and drawings, Ye Shuo still cannot make them. 𝘙�

Ye Shuo wanted to achieve peace as much as possible, instead of bringing greater disasters to the people of this era, so he could only be cautious. Because of the absolute confidentiality, even though Zou Wu had worked hard for so many years, only these four people had special weapons, and even the users did not know the specific structure of the weapons. Each part of this thing had a number on it, and with the supervisors watching, it was difficult for such a secret to be leaked.

However, even if the number of people is small, it is enough. In the absence of any cover, it is almost impossible for the target to escape.

As for Generals Xu and Fang, when the supervisor said the words “the emperor’s secret order”, they were tactful and dared not ask any more questions. Even though they were extremely curious, they did not intend to continue exploring.

With various advantages added up, the attack of the Great Zhou was advancing steadily and rapidly. Based on the understanding of Generals Xu and Fang about Beiting, unless the other side had a genius who could achieve a surprise victory, they were all old rivals and would not be able to win the game if they knew each other’s abilities and methods in detail.

However, how difficult is it to expect a genius to come down from heaven and turn the tide? Generals Xu and Fang did not think that Beiting would have such good fortune.

The fact turned out to be just as the two had expected. Once Beiting’s advantage was broken, it collapsed like usual.

It was not until the Great Zhou army headed straight for the heart of Beiting that Beiting launched a counterattack, but it was already too late.

Generals Xu and Fang predicted that by the end of the month at the latest, Beiting would be forced to retreat to the foot of Duanshan Mountains due to the encirclement and suppression from several sides. Duanshan Mountains are high and dangerous, and once they cross it, it would be difficult for the enemy to come back.

Beiting is in the most danger at this time, and success or failure depends on this one move.

In order to prevent the enemy from launching a desperate counterattack, Generals Xu and Fang kept their nerves tense and did not dare to relax for a moment.

Just when Generals Xu and Fang were desperately thinking about how to completely expel the Beiting people from this land, more things were sent over from Shangjing.

In addition to the necessary food and fodder, there were also carts full of things tightly wrapped in oilcloth, of which no one knew what they were.

This was also something that Generals Xu and Fang could not interfere with. When Generals Xu and Fang saw this situation, they felt relieved but also a little nervous.

The dozen or so people escorting these carriages had long breaths and were all wearing masks. I guess they must be the legendary secret guards.  

And since the secret guards appeared, it means that the emperor gave the order personally.

Generals Xu and Fang watched helplessly as a dozen people emptied all those carriages in just one night. As for where the things went, they could guess without even thinking.

As for Beiting, they did not expect that the counterattack from the Great Zhou would be so swift and decisive.

Beiting and Chen State had cooperated once before, but they ended up breaking up. It was all because the two sides had completely fallen out at the beginning. Now that Chen State is in trouble, it will be difficult for Beiting and Chen State to join forces again.

There was no other way, Beiting had to settle for the second best and began to plan to reap the benefits. However, who would have thought that the Chen State would suffer a crushing defeat, and after the demise of the Chen State, the Great Zhou State still retained its strength. Now the Great Zhou State was pointing its spearhead at them again, which was really a cause for distress.

Especially the four people in the opposing team, who made them unable to rest in peace. No less than ten generals have died at the hands of these four people. No one knows what material their clothes are made of or how they are made. They can become perfectly invisible just by lying there. Even with an expensive telescope, it is difficult to distinguish them from the surrounding objects. Often by the time they discover them, the opponent has already taken their lives from hundreds of steps away.

King Zuo Xian also tried to force the four men to show up, but he didn’t know how they were trained. Even if the people of the Great Zhou died in front of them, they could remain motionless and hide there for two days and one night.

If it weren’t for these four people, the Great Zhou would not have arrived here so quickly. King Zuo Xian hated them to the core.

However, no matter how angry the two princes and the Wolf King were, it was useless because Da Zhou was still pressing forward step by step, with no intention of giving up.

It seems that the other party has made up their minds to expel them completely.

But what good is that? Once they are given time to recuperate, they will surely come back.

King Zuo Xian thought so until dawn, when the two generals of the Great Zhou launched another surprise attack.

However, before the sun rose as usual, a sound like thunder suddenly rang out, and at that moment the earth shook as if the sky was collapsing.

When the aftermath of the tremor died down, Zuo Xian waved away his guards and took a closer look. He saw that half of the mountain had been destroyed by the sudden loud noise.

This miraculous scene made King Zuo Xian’s pupils shrink sharply.

At the same time, Ye Shuo couldn’t help but reach out and fiddle with the shells on the wind chimes. The shells collided and made a ringing sound, and Ye Shuo couldn’t help but smile.

According to the time, the “gift” he personally supervised should have been delivered. I wonder if Beiting likes it.

The next moment, Zuo Xian came to his senses. After the panic, he couldn’t help feeling a burning sensation in his heart.

Although they didn’t know how Emperor Zhou did it, since the other party could do it, they could do it too. If they could get this thing, what would the current predicament be?

However, immediately afterwards, Zuo Xian Wang was awakened by howling and screaming——

“It’s a punishment from heaven! It’s a punishment from heaven sent down by the gods!”

If they could flatten half of a mountain in an instant, what else could it be but a miracle? They had accidentally angered the gods, so this disaster had occurred.

The Beiting soldiers were defeated all the way. The locusts and the army of the Great Zhou were like steel knives hanging around their necks every day. No one knew if someone would suddenly appear in the next blink of an eye. Their spirits were already on the verge of collapse, and Ye Shuo’s move completely destroyed their remaining sanity.

At one moment, some people knelt down and kowtowed, some burst into tears, but there were more people who threw down their weapons and climbed up the nearby snow-capped mountains as if they were risking their lives.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Compared to half a mountain, they are just like ants.

King Zuo Xian wanted to order people to stop the attack, but he was powerless. Everyone, including the Wolf King, was frightened by what they saw.

Once the seeds of fear are planted, it is difficult to pull them out. And once a person develops fear, he can only exert 10% or 20% of his strength at most.

King Zuo Xian immediately realised that the people before him were useless and could no longer be used. Before a new batch of soldiers grew up, they were no longer able to fight.

If I don’t run away now, I might really be killed by the people from the Great Zhou.

Once an avalanche is formed, it cannot be controlled by one or two people. Seeing that things were impossible to do, Zuo Xian made a choice without hesitation. Since he had to choose, he must choose the best path.

When Beiting was around, it was naturally glorious to be the Zuo Xian, who was second only to the emperor. When Beiting was gone, the so-called prince was nothing more than a stray dog. Instead of having to please others after failure, it is better to just be the one giving orders.

Who knows, will there be a different world behind the broken mountain?

Looking at the panic-stricken Wolf King, a sinister look flashed across Zuo Xian’s eyes. In the shocked and horrified eyes of the Wolf King, Zuo Xian raised his sword and slashed, killing the Wolf King instantly on the spot.

Several personal guards of Zuo Xian first widened their eyes, and then after they realised what was happening, they followed suit and dealt with everyone who saw this scene in the shortest possible time.

Under the Wolf King there is only the Left Wise King. The Huyan clan, the descendants of the Wolf King, have their own hands to deal with by Emperor Zhou. As for the Right Wise King, he is really not a concern, so as long as they are not stupid, they will know what to choose.

Finally, King Zuo Xian took a deep look in the direction of Shangjing, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and then, under the protection of several people, he walked into the steep snow and wind on the Broken Mountain without looking back.
