Chapter 140 Strategies for Pinghai
Zhao Jiuxiao secretly stimulated his inner strength, causing three strands of true energy to rise from the dantian one after another, circulating around the meridians of his whole body.

In the beginning, these three strands of zhenqi conflicted with each other and did not merge.

But after Zhao Jiuxiao worked continuously, they finally became one.

As a result, Zhao Jiuxiao's internal strength has been greatly improved, and his internal strength has reached a new level.

Originally, with the help of top-notch internal skills such as [Wedding Dress Divine Art], [Mingyu Art], and [Nine Yin Manual], his internal energy has already reached the level of a demigod. Like a tiger with wings added.

Zhao Jiuxiao couldn't help being secretly excited, happy that he had such a cultivation base.

However, just as he was thinking about it, the Quicksand King City was already at the end of its strength.

The scimitar cavalry and musketeers in the city were no match for the army, and the wizards were even slaughtered.

In the end, all the remaining enemies in the city surrendered, and the Quicksand King City was also under the control of Tiansheng Kingdom.

Zhao Jiuxiao only had the last step left, to conquer the palace.

Looking at the oval-shaped domed palace in front of him, he had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

Gongsun Wuji also stood aside and asked, "General Zhao, as long as the emperor of the Quicksand Kingdom surrenders, the Quicksand Kingdom will be completely destroyed."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "That's right, but the Emperor of Quicksand Kingdom hasn't shown up yet, so he obviously doesn't want to surrender."

Gongsun Wuji: "That's easy, since he doesn't want to surrender, let's go in with our army and capture him directly."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Okay."

After speaking, he ordered the army to rush into the palace.

"Kill!" The soldiers bravely moved forward, and soon beheaded the guards of the Quicksand Kingdom in the palace.

The maids and servants of the Quicksand Kingdom fled in all directions and disappeared.

Zhao Jiuxiao walked along the unique style of the palace, and finally came to the front of the main hall.

I saw a middle-aged man with a pale face sitting here.

The ministers beside him knelt down on the ground with their heads bowed, expressing their submission.

The middle-aged man had a big black beard and a pair of blue eyes looked at Zhao Jiuxiao faintly, as if he had indescribable helplessness.

But the crown on his head and the golden robe on his body told Zhao Jiuxiao that this person was the emperor of the Quicksand Kingdom.

The Emperor of the Quicksand Kingdom stared at Zhao Jiuxiao, slowly stepped down from the throne, took off his crown, and put it on the ground.

He spoke in the language of the quicksand country, with tears in his eyes.

Although Zhao Jiuxiao didn't understand, he also knew that the other party was in despair.

After speaking, the emperor of the Quicksand Kingdom fell to his knees, took out a machete from his arms, and stabbed himself with the knife.

Zhao Jiuxiao didn't stop him, but just looked at each other quietly.

"Bah!" Blood spattered out and fell to the ground drop by drop.

The corpse of the Emperor of Quicksand Kingdom lay there, staining the ground red.

The ministers on both sides didn't say anything, just kept silent.

But their eyes were red.

Zhao Jiuxiao waved his hand: "Send me an order to take all these ministers down, and find someone who can speak the language of quicksand to question carefully, and then we can talk after confirming their identities."

The soldiers cupped their hands: "Yes, General Zhao!"

After speaking, they carried all the ministers down.

Zhao Jiuxiao walked up to the throne, looked at its golden appearance, and couldn't help sighing: "From today onwards, the Kingdom of Quicksand will be destroyed."

The soldiers were shouting loudly, excited.

But Zhao Jiuxiao felt a little regretful.

For some reason, when he was happy, he was always a little bit reluctant to see himself destroying such a powerful kingdom with his own hands.

But instead of thinking about it all the time, he turned his attention to the next thing.

After the fall of the Quicksand Kingdom, Zhao Jiuxiao recruited capable ministers to manage the area.

These ministers are not only proficient in the language of the Quicksand country, but also familiar with the customs of the Quicksand country, and know how to combine the culture and system of the Central Plains with their own conditions and control them well.

Zhao Jiuxiao's attitude towards the people of Quicksand Kingdom is also very simple, that is to treat them generously.

As for the merchants here, he issued strict laws and regulations to collect taxes.

In addition, Zhao Jiuxiao also set up an organization to supervise tax collection to prevent local officials from corrupting the law.

This organization directly told him the important letter, similar to Jin Yiwei.

After finishing all this, Zhao Jiuxiao led the army back to the capital.

In this battle in King City of Quicksand, he lost 10 horses, but destroyed all the elite of the enemy army.

In addition, after getting the business from the Quicksand Kingdom, the Tiansheng Kingdom became richer and more powerful.

And Zhao Jiuxiao's kind attitude towards the people was welcomed by the people of Quicksand, which made Tiansheng Kingdom gain a firm foothold very quickly.

In this way, he can concentrate on dealing with Zhen Nanguo.

That night, in the capital, in the general's mansion.

Zhao Jiuxiao sat there, with all kinds of delicacies in front of him, and dancers dancing gracefully.

Gongsun Wuji sat aside, his eyes full of thought.

Luo Wenyuan also frowned, hesitated to speak.

Nan Guofeng was the happiest. He kept drinking, and he drank three cups in a blink of an eye.

Although He Zhengyang's expression was not happy, he did not drink less wine.

At this moment, Zhao Jiuxiao asked: "Gongsun Shaoxia, I want to attack Zhennan Kingdom, do you know anything about it?"

Gongsun Wuji smiled: "General Zhao, I already guessed that you would ask this question. To be honest, compared with Xuantie Kingdom and Liusha Kingdom, Zhennan Kingdom is the real formidable enemy."

"They live far away overseas. If they want to defeat them, they can only use the navy. However, Zhennan has four very powerful admirals. Once the two countries go to war, our army may not be able to defeat each other."

"The emperor of Zhennan Kingdom, Lu Qingxuan, is a well-known diligent ruler in the world. He does everything by himself, and he is more powerful than Murong Kuang and the emperor of Liusha Kingdom."

Zhao Jiuxiao frowned: "Then our army has no chance?"

Gongsun Wuji shook his head: "That's not the case."

As he spoke, he looked at Luo Wenyuan.

Luo Wenyuan also cupped his hands and said, "General Zhao, I am finally willing to lead the Fuzhou Navy and the Guangzhou Navy to jointly attack Zhennan Kingdom and find a way to defeat the four generals of Zhennan Kingdom."

Zhao Jiuxiao smiled: "Great, with General Luo here, why worry about the big things not being done? General Luo, I will ask the emperor for an order tomorrow to let him make you General Pinghai, a third-rank official!"

Luo Wenyuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General Zhao!"

Immediately afterwards, he changed the subject: "General Zhao, although our army is strong, our navy is not strong enough. So far, there are only 40 troops."

"This still includes all of the Fuzhou Navy and the Guangzhou Navy, but the number of Zhennan's navy is far greater than ours, at least 200 million."

Zhao Jiuxiao frowned: "So, how many troops does General Luo need?"

Luo Wenyuan: "At least 150 million sailors."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Okay, just as General Luo said, our Tiansheng Kingdom is not short of money now, I will give you half a year, I hope you will train well and create a strong navy for me!"

Luo Wenyuan cupped his hands and said, "The last general obeys!"
