Tang Xiao was sitting on a chair. The coarse rice bread in front of him was already cold. There was only a plate with a few grains of coarse salt and a bowl of water beside him.
That's right, this was the Tang Army's marshal's dinner.
He was not picky. He was used to it.
However, he couldn't eat it now. He made this decision in a short period of time and felt a little emotional.
Without the system, he would not have any background to rebel.
The confusion he felt when he transmigrated, what dynasty was this?
Great Zhou, he had never heard of it.
He had thought that this was a strange era, but the Huashan Sword Seminary, Ming Cult's Zhang Wuji, Demon Sect's Pang Ban, Little Li Flying Dagger, these were all household names in his previous life. He was completely confused.
The golden age of martial arts!
The imperial court and the martial world were closely intertwined.
Zhang Sanfeng, the living immortal of Wudang Mountain, and Patriarch Bodhidharma of Shaolin Temple.
What a mess.
When he was 18 years old, the system appeared.
He finally understood why his martial arts had progressed so quickly. It was all thanks to the system's secret help.
The system didn't have any missions, but there were all kinds of strange missions for him to complete and reward him.
This was also why Tang Xiao was still unmarried at this age, because his nickname was Crazy Tang.
Chancellor Kong of the Imperial College once said helplessly,
"Tang Xiao is a person who has contributed to the country, but has lost his personal virtue!”
He didn't want to either. The system told him to run naked on Chang 'an Street. The mission reward was Luo Yi and the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun.
He really didn't dare to do it. He just wanted to take advantage of the dark to secretly run around.
In the end, that day was an important festival of the Great Zhou. How could he remember?
When he ran out of the door, all the young ladies on the street were scared away by him.
He also went all out and really ran one round. In the end, if it wasn't for General Huo's protection, he would have been taken care of long ago.
Tang Xiao had done this many times, and General Huo had punished him with military law.
However, he did not change his ways. He did not make any big mistakes and kept making small mistakes.
Because of this, General Huo had failed to find him a few wives. In addition, he had been fighting all this time, so his expedition to the north and south had been delayed.
When he was twenty-four, Tang Xiao really thought he was dead. It was said that he had bled a few liters of blood.
The System, which had always been a scammer, had saved Tang Xiao, but the quest was gone. It only had the ability to summon heroes every season.
All the other buttons had turned gray, and only the summoning button was lit up.
Tang Xiao actually missed the System.
Even though sometimes missions were really messed up.
General Huo had been suffering from consumption for several years. This was not his previous life, where he could not be saved. It was a pity that he did not see General Huo for the last time.
Now that he had rebelled, General Huo would probably not be able to rest in peace even in the netherworld. He was the person who valued the way of monarch and minister the most.
Of course, Tang Xiao only felt that this was just blind loyalty.
It was impossible to tell who was right and who was wrong now. He had no regrets since he had come this far.
"Report!"
The messenger at the door hurriedly ran over.
"Enter!"
The messenger panted as he reported," Commander, General Lin Chong has received news that the Turks have gathered two hundred thousand soldiers and have prepared siege weapons. They are expected to attack our Beiliang City the day after tomorrow!”
Tang Xiao knew it would be a bloody battle.
It must be known that the sixteen cities of the northern desert originally had over two hundred thousand soldiers stationed, but the Tang Army only had over a hundred thousand men. The rest could not be counted on.
At this moment, Beiliang City only had fifty thousand men. If it were just the two hundred thousand Turkic soldiers, it would not be enough.
But don't forget that the Great Zhou was in trouble, and so were the Turks. Tang Xiao and his generals estimated that the total number of Turkic soldiers should be between eight hundred thousand and one million.
If the Imperial Court could mobilize General Huo's subordinates, Tang Xiao was confident that he could drag the Turks to death. This was why he didn't dare to launch a surprise attack.
The number of Turkic soldiers was too great, so they could only delay!
But now, there was no more reinforcements. Not only that, but Tang Xiao could only rely on his own resources to provide food.
The most difficult part was not just this. Would the Great Zhou send troops to attack Tiger's Mouth, and would the remaining 100,000 soldiers in Mobei rebel?
Would the Jianghu people who were constantly entangled with the imperial court make any strange moves?
All of this was unknown.
Tang Xiao knew that if he decided to rebel, he would face countless difficulties. He might even die on this land.
However, he would rather die than bear a false accusation and be humiliated.
He admired Marshal Yue, but he would not walk the same path as Marshal Yue.
Tang Xiao clenched his fists, his face full of killing intent.
So what if I die? At least I, Tang Xiao, am still alive in this world. And he really doesn't believe that he can't stand on his own feet in this world with the help of so many heroes in his previous life.
Who am I, Tang Xiao? The undefeated War God of the Great Zhou, and now the commander of the Tang Army.
He picked up the cold cornbread and stuffed it into his mouth.
