Of course, Chu Fan was completely clueless about what Eunuch Li had done. He had no idea how much of a qualitative change the Sunflower Manual he had gifted would cause in the Wei Imperial Palace.

Chu Fan's mind at this moment was completely focused on how to complete the system task. Since he was being ridiculed by the system, he could not tolerate anything.

Chu Fan firmly believed that he could force the court officials and royal family members to revolt. As long as he persisted and continued to pursue his own goals, he would definitely achieve his goal. When the court officials and royal family members could no longer tolerate him, they would definitely raise the flag of rebellion.

Not long after, an idea that he had never tried before suddenly flashed through Chu Fan's mind, which was to adopt a strategy of aggressive military expansion.

Throughout the history of Blue Star, we can see that many emperors relied too much on force and sent all their soldiers out to fight, which eventually led to their dynasties being overthrown by rebellions led by aristocratic families.

For example, during the Shang Dynasty, King Zhou sent most of his troops to attack the Dongyi, which allowed the Xiqi to take advantage of the situation, successfully launch a rebellion, and ultimately successfully overthrow the rule of the Shang Dynasty.

For example, during the Qin Dynasty, due to the stupidity of Qin II and the eunuch Zhao Gao's interference in politics, rebellions broke out everywhere in the country and the situation was turbulent.

At the same time, all the powerful armies of the Qin Dynasty were sent to the border areas by Qin Shi Huang to resist the invasion of the Xiongnu and the Baiyue in the south. After the rebellion broke out at home, these soldiers were unable to return to rescue in time.

It was precisely because of this situation of internal and external difficulties that Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were able to overthrow the rule of Qin relatively easily even if they united the remnants of the six countries.

During the Sui Dynasty, if Emperor Yang Guang had not personally led the army to attack Goguryeo, and if the Sui army had not suffered huge casualties and losses on the front line, the peasant uprisings launched by those aristocratic families would not have been able to easily overthrow the rule of the Sui Dynasty.

During the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, was constantly engaged in wars, which made the soldiers exhausted and the people suffered terribly from years of war.

Had Emperor Wen of Sui been able to halt its expansionist policies, particularly its campaign against Goguryeo, the Sui dynasty would not have depleted its vast reserves of supplies and food. Perhaps the dynasty's national strength could have been better preserved and restored. Even if the Sui dynasty had ambitious plans, such as the ambitious Grand Canal, these ambitious projects could have been carried out more smoothly if excessive military spending had been avoided.

Then it would be impossible for the common people to follow those aristocratic families in rebellion. In addition, as long as Emperor Wen of Sui could firmly control the army, he would not be easily overthrown.

Chu Fan's heart was filled with conflict and struggle. He knew very well that if he gave the order for all Wei soldiers to take the initiative and launch a fierce attack on the Xiongnu, the Wei soldiers would inevitably suffer heavy casualties and sacrifices in this battle.

Chu Fan couldn't accept this tragic scene at all. He couldn't stand seeing the soldiers bleeding on the battlefield, and he couldn't stand seeing the soldiers' parents die in grief without even being able to see their children for the last time.

Sometimes, even after the soldiers died, their bodies could not be transported back to their hometowns, and they had to remain in a foreign country and become unknown heroic souls.

Chu Fan knew that war brought not only casualties among soldiers, but also the destruction of countless families and endless grief. He could not ignore those innocent lives and the pain of those families who lost their loved ones in the war.

Chu Fan couldn't make the decision to let the children of the Wei people die on the battlefield just to complete the system task.

He was unwilling to become the culprit who plunged countless families into grief, and he was unwilling to sacrifice these young lives just so that he could complete his mission and return to Blue Star to live a carefree life.

Chu Fan pondered for a moment, but when he couldn't come up with a good solution, he decided not to dwell on the problem at hand. His thoughts turned to another, more important issue: how to cleverly arouse Cao Mengde's ambition and make him covet the throne.

In the spacious room, Chu Fan suddenly raised his voice and called out, "Little Leo."

However, the loyal little Leo who always appeared by his side quickly whenever he called did not respond this time.

Chu Fan was confused and was about to call out again when a eunuch walked in respectfully and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Li has some urgent personal matters to attend to and is unable to come. Therefore, I will be serving Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will not blame me."

Chu Fan's heart was filled with understanding and emotion when he heard the young eunuch's words. After all, Little Leo had always been faithfully by his side. No matter when or where he needed him, Little Leo would always be there. The time Little Leo had spent working by his side even exceeded the time spent working those so-called 996 blessed jobs.

Leonardo DiCaprio serves him around the clock, that's 007's working hours, so it's only natural that he has things to deal with now.

Chu Fan said to the eunuch who came in, "What did Cao Mengde do after he became the Minister of War?"

Chu Fan's eyes were sharp, and he asked the eunuch who had just entered the hall in a serious tone, "Since Cao Mengde took the position of Minister of War, what measures has he taken and what has he done?"

The young eunuch stood respectfully by and answered cautiously, "Your Majesty, since Lord Cao took over the position of Minister of War, he has first dealt with those officials within the Ministry of War who occupied positions but did nothing, and those who violated military discipline and laws.

He ruthlessly removed those members who were in office but doing nothing and breaking the law from the Ministry of War in order to eliminate the bad atmosphere within it.

Cao Gong then decided to thoroughly overhaul the city guards of Kaifeng and the three surrounding citadels. He was determined to expel the corrupt officials and ensure that the city guards could regain their fighting capacity and discipline.

Cao Gong's series of measures have given the entire Ministry of War a new look and laid a solid foundation for national security."

Chu Fan fully recognized and supported the restructuring of the Ministry of War. He knew that only through thorough restructuring and reform could the City Guard regain the trust and respect of the people. Only when the City Guard once again became the guardians of the people could the city's long-term stability be ensured and the safety of people's lives and property be protected.

Such a reorganization will not only enhance the combat effectiveness of the army, but also fundamentally improve the relationship between the army and the people, allowing the entire city to prosper and develop in a harmonious and stable environment.

But Chu Fan had a doubt: Could it be that Cao Mengde really had no intention of rebelling?
