The Birth of a Peerless Sword!
Just as the people in the royal study were still digesting the fact that Chu Xiu had killed a martial grandmaster...
A young eunuch respectfully knocked on the door of the royal study, interrupting everyone's thoughts.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has a secret edict for Your Majesty!”
"Bring it over!"
Following the little Emperor's order, the little eunuch respectfully presented a secret edict.
The little Emperor took the secret decree and glanced at it. Then, a smile appeared on her face.
"This is a pleasant surprise. Chu Xiu, take a look!”
After the little Emperor finished reading it, she naturally passed it to Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu didn't mind and directly took it.
In the eyes of Li Xiangguo and Han Yanjin, this scene had another meaning.
The relationship between His Majesty and the Viceroy was really close!
"Li Xiangguo and Commander Han should also take a look!”
The little Emperor naturally wouldn't favor one over the other. After Chu Xiu finished reading it, he handed it over to Li Xiangguo and Han Yanjin.
The two of them looked at it respectfully, and then their faces were filled with joy.
The Empress Dowager's secret letter only contained a few words.
"Old General Zhao of the Winter Solitude Army is trustworthy!"
After Li Xiangguo and Han Yanjin finished reading, Chu Xiu said thoughtfully,""In other words, although there are signs of rebellion in the Four Gods Army!”
"But among them, Marshal Han of the Spring Death Army and Marshal Zhao of the Winter Solitude Army are loyal to His Majesty!”
"As for the other Autumn Killing Army and Summer Wind Army, they might have other intentions?”
"That's right. Over the years, the Autumn Kill Army and Summer Wind Army have been the ones that have asked the Imperial Court for the most military pay. They have asked for pay every year, and they have been plagued by border troubles every year.”
Li Xiangguo, as the prime minister of the current dynasty, knew the changes in the Four Gods Army the best. He spoke in dissatisfaction.
"How many of them have entered the capital this time?”
Chu Xiu asked curiously again.
"Three thousand!"
"Every year, the Four Divine Armies would return to the capital to report on their work. They would bring an elite army of 3,000 people. On one hand, they would report on their work, and on the other hand, they would review the army for His Majesty!”
"Therefore, these 3,000 people are also the elites of the Four Gods Army. Each of them has the strength to fight against 10!”
Han Yan's golden body was the commander of the Dragon Legion Guards, so he had a better understanding of the military's data.
"In other words, each division has 3,000 people, a total of 12,000 people!”
"Now, there are two people who are on our side. It's two against two!”
"Each side has 6,000 elite troops!"
"However, we still have the Dragon Stallion Guards and the Five Cities Military Department.”
Chu Xiu analyzed the situation again and asked curiously.
"We can definitely win, but there's a high chance that we'll win miserably!”
Han Yanjin pondered for a moment and said.
"If the two sides start a war, the main force will be the internal battle of the four divine legions, with the Dragon Legion Guards assisting from the outside!”
"However, even the victorious side of the Four Gods Army will suffer heavy casualties!”
"Not only that!"
" The most important thing is that the elites of the Four Gods Legion are here. If there are any major losses, it means that the Four Gods Legion will lose a large number of middle-level commanders!" Li Xiangguo continued.”
"This way, the Four Gods Army's combat strength will be crippled by more than half!”
"Moreover, if we can't wipe them out completely, the news will spread to the borders. The probability of the Summer Wind Army and Autumn Kill Army rebelling at the borders is extremely high!”
"Once they betray the country and cause unrest at the border, the problem will be even more serious!”
Li Xiangguo frowned and said solemnly.
"What if we kill their commander?”
Chu Xiu asked again.
He had never studied military affairs, so he would not make his own decisions on such military matters.
"It's still the same sentence, treating the symptoms but not the root cause!”
"In recent years, the Imperial Court has been unable to do anything about the Four Divine Armies for many reasons. The most important one is that apart from the Commander-in-chief, many of the people in the army are their own people.”
"If the commander-in-chief dies, there is a high chance that their family members will rebel instead of submitting to the imperial court.”
"Of course, this can at least intimidate the Four Divine Armies for a short period of time!”
Han Yanjin nodded in agreement and said,""That's right. In the past, the Viceroy's martial arts could intimidate them, but now, the Imperial Sword Guards had appeared.”
"Even if the Governor killed that martial grandmaster, the Divine Sword Guards have more than one martial grandmaster!”
"Therefore, the Governor's intimidation might be limited!”
"Then what if the Winter Solitude Army and the Spring Death Army don't make a move and annihilate the Autumn Killing Army and the Summer Wind Army?”
Chu Xiu pondered for a moment before asking again.
Han Yanjin thought for a moment and said in a deep voice,""If that's the case, I think it's feasible!”
"The reason why the Four Gods Army is so difficult to contain is because they are too powerful!”
"Within the borders of Great Xia, other than the Four Divine Armies that are equally famous as themselves, the rest of the troops are much weaker!”
"Even the imperial guards of the capital are much weaker than them!”
Chu Xiu nodded.
"Understood!"
"Leave this matter to me. I'll settle it!”
Chu Xiu said thoughtfully.
Since it was so troublesome, he might as well summon the Snow Dragon Riders!
However, before that, Chu Xiu decided to open the treasure chest first.
To Chu Xiu, the rebellion of the Four Gods Army was just a minor problem.
He hadn't brought out the Snow Dragon Knights before because he didn't want to interfere too much in the royal court and cause the officials to oppose him.
However, now that his strength had increased, it did not matter.
After returning to the East Hall, Chu Xiu took out two golden treasure chests from his system inventory.
One of them emitted a dense golden light.
This was something that had been condensed in Li Changhe's body.
As for the other one, it was shining with golden light, mixed with an even more crystalline white luster.
Compared to the golden light, the Fate Treasure Chest condensed by the Empress Dowager seemed to be of a higher level.
Do you wish to open the Fortune Treasure Chest?

Chu Xiu opened the gold one first.
Congratulations to the host for obtaining a divine weapon and a peerless sword.
Congratulations, you have obtained the character Kali Ruohai.
Congratulations to the host for obtaining the strange poison formula, Sad Breeze.
Chu Xiu didn't get any martial arts from this treasure chest, but he got a peerless sword.
There was also the Character Summon Card, Evil Spirit Li Ruohai!
This was a character who could be said to be second only to the Devil Master Pang Pan and the Overflowing Rain Sword, Lang FanYun.
He was known as the most handsome man in the world, but he was obsessed with martial arts. In the final battle with Pang Ban, he even blossomed with his own glory.
However, the most important thing was that Evil Spirit Li Ruohai was an expert in riding.
His 10,000 Snow Dragon Cavalry were lacking a commander, and Evil Spirit Li Ruohai was a suitable candidate.
As for the last one, the strange poison, Sad Crisp Breeze, it was also a good thing.
Perhaps this poison alone could deal with the Four Gods Army.
As expected, opening treasure chests was the best.
After Chu Xiu calmed down, he looked at another treasure chest that seemed to be of a higher level.
(Thank you for the gift, Zheng Xiaoyu, the melon chef. I bow and thank you!)）
