Please ask me to be the emperor

Huang Shoucai is not someone who just sits back and waits for death, nor is he someone whose words and deeds are inconsistent. Since he agreed to Zhao Lizi, he must do it no matter what.

In desperation, he had no choice but to force the other boats and fishermen to beat the river surface with paddles and other objects to break He Bing, and reluctantly continued to move forward.

Here, Zhao Lizi and Huang Shoucai have gone through untold hardships and overcome all difficulties and dangers; over there, Zhang Shun, Zhao Yutou and the other troops are also as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

Zhao Yutou and Chen Jingzhi were both able to observe the sky. They saw that the weather suddenly warmed up after Zhao Lizi left, so they guessed that the weather would turn cold in the next few days.

However, they never expected that after the weather turned cold, the Yellow River would be covered with thick and thin ice. The ice was just thick enough to prevent ships from moving, but it was just not thick enough to carry people and horses across the river.

Zhang Shun couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw that the three-day appointment was approaching and the officers and soldiers were ready to move. This plan was originally devised by Zhao Yutou, and others also complained.

Zhao Yutou stood up quickly and said, "Don't panic, everyone. King Shun has his destiny. If the ice of the Yellow River still cannot cross the river tomorrow night, I, Old Yutou, am willing to be punished by military law!"

Zhang Shun was shocked when he heard this, and was about to persuade him, but he never thought that Zhao Yutou was not afraid at all. Instead, he smiled and said: "My old Yutou's life is my life, isn't the life of the thousands of rebel troops?".

Zhang Shun knew that Zhao Yutou was leaving a way out for him. If he broke the promise, he was ready to bear the responsibility with his own life.

Zhang Shun persuaded and persuaded, but Zhao Yutou still did not change his words. Zhang Shun really had no choice but to let him go. However, he kept praying in his heart, hoping that the weather would be colder, even colder!

Although Zhang Shun only agreed with other rebel commanders for just three days, now he really felt what it meant to live like a year.

Especially at that time, "Chuang King" captured a messenger of the officers and soldiers, and only then learned the reason why the officers and soldiers had delayed their attack recently.

It turns out that the encirclement of the rebels by the officers and soldiers has been basically completed, and the seemingly existing gap in Yuanqu County is just the strategy of the officers and soldiers to "encircle three towers and one". They were just waiting for the eunuch Yang Jinchao sent by the capital to arrive so that he could take over such great achievements.

Now that Yang Jinchao has arrived day and night, it only takes a day or two to organize the final attack on the rebels. If the rebel army were to delay at this critical moment of crossing the river, they would probably be annihilated.

Zhang Shun was not familiar with this period of history in the first place. What's more, even if Zhang Shun could keep it in mind, the details of the history would have been messed up by him.

Just to appease everyone, Zhang Shun had to suppress his uneasiness and in turn appease the rebels outside and the wives and concubines inside.

That night, Zhang Shun sat in the military camp, trying to calm down, but he did not dare to rest. He could only ask about the movements of the scouts sent out by the rebels from time to time, ask if there was any new information, ask if any of the scouts had lost contact, and judge the movements of the officers and soldiers based on this.

As for crossing the river, it was beyond human power, so he could only leave it to fate.

But at this time, the other rebel commanders couldn't wait any longer, and they came together to ask Zhang Shun about the time to cross the river.

Zhang Shun knew very well that an arrow had to be fired when it was on the string, so he forced a smile and said: "It's done now. Please pack your things when you are seated, and we will set off to cross the river at Yin Shi!" This delayed it for another half night.

The generals were overjoyed when they heard this, saying that Zhang Shun was confident, so they quickly packed up their belongings overnight and prepared to set off.

However, in the past two days, the weather has turned cold and strong winds have risen. Many rebel soldiers and family members were shivering from the cold and turning blue as they prepared to set off overnight.

The rebel soldiers couldn't help but complain, and some even cursed secretly: "If this guy can't take us across the river tomorrow, I will risk my life to get an explanation!"

Before the Yin hour, the "Eight Great Kings" ran over impatiently and asked: "The rebel army is ready, why wait until the Yin hour? Wouldn't it be better to cross the river now?"

Zhang Shun said with a smile: "We can't cross the river before the time comes! 'Eight Kings', please be patient. I said Yin time, and it must be Yin time to cross the river!"

After all the hard work, everyone came to urge Zhang Shun again. Zhang Shun had no choice but to extend his head with a knife, and to shrink his head with a knife was also a knife. He had no choice but to trust Zhao Yutou and lead them to the bank of the Yellow River.

Everyone followed Zhang Shun to the bank of the Yellow River, only to see that the surging river water was not flowing.

The surface of the river is as smooth as a stone and like a bronze mirror, reflecting the bright moon in the sky. It only shines brightly into the dark night.

It's just that as the saying goes, "It takes less than a day to freeze three feet of ice." Now the weather has only been cold for a day and a night. How thick can it be frozen? What's more, it has to be able to withstand the passing people?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yutou rushed over panting. Zhang Shun was about to ask, but Zhao Yutou just nodded, and then shouted loudly: "The ice of the Yellow River can be crossed, everyone, come with me!" He led everyone to the junction of Yuanqu and Jiyuan.

Everyone followed him for another mile or two and came to the river. Looking there, they saw that an ice bridge had already formed in the river. It is about six feet wide and three feet thick, which is just suitable for the rebel army to cross the river.

It turned out that after Zhao Yutou issued the military order, he stayed on the bank of the Yellow River day and night to watch the ice of the river.

But seeing that although the ice was thick, it was not enough to carry people, horses and cargo. Zhao Yutou knew that the rebels also had Hongyi cannons and other heavy objects passing through, and he was afraid that the ice would not be able to support them.

This place is the narrowest point of the nearby Yellow River and the shortest distance. He led his soldiers all night, found door panels, bed boards and other objects, and placed them one by one to form a bridge.

They personally led people to boil water and pour water to build it repeatedly. Just like the story of Cao Cao watering sand and building an ice castle, a special "ice bridge" was built overnight.

Zhang Shun couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it, and hurriedly boasted secretly: "It's like having an old man in the family, it's like having a treasure!" The rest of the rebels didn't know the key, and saw that this bridge was extraordinary. In addition, Zhang Shun sacrificed to the God of the Yellow River previously. His actions were regarded as a miracle.

Some people who were not determined had already knelt down and shouted loudly: "King Shun really has destiny in his heart. The river god formed an ice bridge overnight to help us get out of trouble!"

When one person shouts, a hundred people are awakened, and when a hundred people shout, a thousand or ten thousand people are awakened. For a time, like a mountain torrent and a tsunami, they all worshiped Zhang Shun.

Some people even shouted: "If King Shun had not taken advantage of this miracle to establish a system and become emperor, wouldn't he be better than that kid from the Forbidden City? The rest of the leaders would be divided into generals and prime ministers, and the merits of following the dragon would not be in vain!"

The other rebel leaders couldn't help but look at each other with ugly expressions upon hearing this. Even "Chuang Wang" couldn't help but snorted, "It's just a trick!"

"Chuang Jiang" heard this and quickly persuaded in a low voice: "'Chuang Wang' be careful, now King Shun is in the limelight, and he is the benefactor of the rebel army, you must not conflict with him!"

Although "Chuang King" wanted to compete with Zhang Shun, he didn't know the key and couldn't expose Zhang Shun on the spot. He also had to intimidate Zhang Shun's current prestige, so he had to snort again to show his disdain, but he no longer dared to say anything wrong about Zhang Shun.

At this time, the cheers and admirations of the rebels had already covered all the dissatisfaction. After all, those who succeed don’t get blamed!

Thanks to everyone for your support, this volume is finally over, and the protagonist is about to enter a wider world to show off his talents. Maybe everyone thinks it's a bit fast, or maybe everyone thinks it's a bit slow, but the author can no longer write in a long and smelly way like a foot wrap. Of course, I guess everyone can't wait.

The author actually wrote these two chapters yesterday. I have been unsatisfied and revised them repeatedly, hoping to satisfy everyone a little bit. The baby at home is sick today, so the author took some time and posted it in advance. There will be no update tonight. Please don’t wait, thank you!
