In the Forbidden City of the capital, Hu Guang didn't wake up until dawn because he was sleeping in his cage. When he started to wash up and eat, he heard the system prompt.

"Ding, achievement value +1, from Eunuch A!"

"Ding, achievement value +1, from palace maid B!"

"..."

Hu Guang was a little confused. He didn't do anything, so why did he get achievement points? This is not an ordinary flattery. I don’t know whether it is true or not. This is evaluated by the system. It must be sincere to have achievement value.

So, he looked at the eunuch who had contributed a little curiously.

When the eunuch saw it, he quickly said with admiration: "Your Majesty is as calm as a mountain. He regards the hundreds of thousands of Jia Lu outside the city as if they were nothing. The servants are so impressed that they fall to the ground!"

"I couldn't sleep well last night. I woke up early this morning. I'm really too far away from Your Majesty!" Another eunuch also followed suit.

"..." Hu Guang was speechless after hearing this. It seemed that these eunuchs and maidens had replaced the ones who were on night duty last night. They saw that he didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning, so they contributed to the achievement points!

Ah, this achievement value is really well deserved! Hu Guang thought in his heart, but there is no need to explain. Keeping calm can also calm people's hearts, right?

Not long after, Li Fengxiang came to see him and reported the battle last night. As he talked, it seemed as if he hadn't slept all night, and he just saw everything clearly before killing and wounding hundreds of Jianluo.

Hu Guang had enough sleep and was in good spirits. After hearing Li Fengxiang's description, he recalled the scene where he saw Jianlu attacking the city yesterday, and couldn't help but feel a little itchy again. He wanted to go up to the city again to see the war in the cold weapon era.

When this thought came together, I couldn't suppress it no matter what. Therefore, Hu Guang heard that Gao Shiyue, the eunuch in charge of the Royal Horse Supervisor, put on armor as usual and led a group of cavalry guards to the top of the city.

This time, due to the implementation of the highest level of martial law, the journey was smooth and there was no buzzing from the civil servants.

When he arrived near Deshengmen, Mangui, who had been informed by his subordinates, hurriedly greeted him.

Hu Guang was riding on the horse and looked at Man Gui who was approaching. He had a tired face and his eyes were bloodshot. From this look, he knew that he had hardly rested.

Seeing this, Hu Guang turned to look at Li Fengxiang who was beside him, and sneered in his heart. Then he turned back to stop Man Gui who wanted to greet him and said: "Man Qing, there is no need to be polite. I already know the battle situation last night. Thank you for your hard work, Man Gui." Got it!"

"This is the duty of the general!" Man Gui clasped his fists and responded loudly, with a slight hoarseness in his voice.

Hu Guang nodded and said happily: "I understand Man Qing's contribution very well. Even if Man Qing is modest or someone else wants to take the credit, it will be the same."

Having said this, he pointed to the city head and said: "Come on, you accompany me up there to take a look, and give me some common sense about the battle between the two armies."

Mangui originally wanted to dissuade him, but he didn't expect to be praised by the emperor, so he became excited. After thinking about it, Jianlu didn't attack the city anyway, so he had no idea. He immediately led the way and took Hu Guang to the city. head.

But Li Fengxiang was lagging far behind. On such a cold day, he felt like he was sweating a lot on his back. How could he not know that what the emperor just said was actually warning him not to take the credit from Man Gui!

The soldiers at the top of the city discovered that the commander-in-chief was actually accompanied by the Ming Emperor. Thinking of what happened yesterday, I suddenly became excited. Before Hu Guang arrived, all the soldiers knelt on the ground to greet him.

"Long live, long live, long live my emperor!"

Hearing this movement, the soldiers even in the distance knew that the emperor was coming, and they all knelt down to greet him, and the shouts suddenly became louder.

Even Jianlu Tanma, who was patrolling far outside the city, heard the movement and looked at the city head from a distance. Three or two riders lined up pointing at the city head and muttering. Then a flying horse went straight to the camp.

On the top of the city, Hu Guang couldn't help but feel a little helpless when he saw this movement. He didn't want to be so ostentatious, so he decided to let everyone know that he was at the top of the city again. It is estimated that even if there is martial law, it will not stop the imperial censors from submitting the memorial.

What's more important is that as the soldiers on the city head salute, there are continuous prompts from the system. Nothing was done, nothing was said, just the achievement value. Obviously, the last time he visited the wounded soldiers, he left a deep and beautiful impression on them, so that he had a high position in their hearts.

Hu Guang thought that based on his own experience, in situations like this, he should not try to get achievement points from them in the future.

At this time, he was standing near the city head of Deshengmen, accompanied by Man Gui, introducing various city defense equipment and various defense experiences to Hu Guang. From time to time, he pointed to the Jianlu Camp in the distance and explained. Why did Jianlu arrange it like that?

There is an old saying that goes well: if you read a book, you will eventually feel it is shallow, but you will definitely know that you must practice it. Mangui's introduction made Hu Guang feel fresh and new, and he learned more about the wisdom of ancient people in attacking and defending cities.

He was a little lucky. Fortunately, he promulgated the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the country, so that the Jianlu people who came from afar could not besiege the capital for a long time. Fortunately, there were not many craftsmen in the Jianlu army. Otherwise, all kinds of siege methods would be used, and it would be difficult to protect the city. The capital is not lost.

While the monarch and his ministers were talking at the top of the city, suddenly, the gate of Jianlu Camp opened wide, and a cavalry troop rushed out from inside. One of them was faster, galloping out and heading straight for Desheng Gate.

Such a big movement can be seen at a glance from the top of the city. The soldiers suddenly became nervous and prepared for the attack. Gao Shiyue, who was in charge of security, quickly admonished: "Your Majesty, the city is in danger. Just in case, please return to the palace, right?"

Mangui stared at Jianlu's cavalry with a stern face for a while, then suddenly said: "The slave chief is here."

Upon hearing this, Hu Guang ignored Gao Shiyue's words and looked around with his eyes wide open. He couldn't see very clearly. He couldn't help but think that it would be nice if he had a telescope.

Thinking of this, he immediately remembered that there was a telescope in the palace based on the memory of the former Emperor Chongzhen, which was donated by the Western missionary Tang Ruowang through Xu Guangqi, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites. Tang Ruowang also co-wrote a copy of "Distant Mirror Theory", but it was all left in the palace. When it was presented as a gift, Emperor Tianqi showed it to Chongzhen as a novelty.

Hu Guang immediately turned around and told Gao Shiyue, who looked nervous: "Go back to the palace immediately and get the telescope donated by the Westerners!"

Gao Shiyue was stunned for a moment. He had no idea what it was. After Hu Guang explained it again, he immediately sent someone there.

Fang Zhenghua stood close to Hu Guang, staring nervously at the speeding Jianlu. But what is more reassuring is that this rider is holding a piece of white cloth and does not carry any weapons.
