Shortly after Queen Zhen Luo's death, Sun Hao issued an edict to abdicate the throne to Crown Prince Sun Heng.

Sun Hao, who was promoted to the emperor, moved out of the imperial palace in Anyang City with his concubines and lived in a royal garden outside Anyang City.

This royal garden was started to be built more than ten years ago. It was a place for Sun Hao to live in his retirement. Although it cannot compare with the imperial palace in Anyang City, it is also extremely luxurious and large in area.

Sun Heng, who had become the emperor, accompanied Sun Hao to this royal garden and advised him, "Father, after the palace was expanded a few years ago, the total number of rooms has exceeded 20,000. Father, please stay in the palace!"

Sun Hao waved his hand and said, "I have decided to live here for the rest of my life and enjoy my old age.

By the way, if you don’t have anything to do, you don’t have to come here all the time. Since you are the emperor, you must put national affairs first.

Regarding the war in the New World, is there any new news these days?"

"Father, Marshal Xue has already led his troops to defeat the main force of the coalition forces of the Orser Empire and the Donglu tribe. Currently, Marshal Xue is leading his troops to attack the capital of the Orser Empire.

With the strength of our Han army, it should be easy to capture the capital of the Orser Empire."

"The policies I previously implemented in the New World must be carried out no matter what, regardless of the opposition of those civil officials.

Immigrating to the New World is the best way to resolve the Han Dynasty's land annexation problem. Even if you and I are branded as butchers, this policy must be implemented."

Sun Heng nodded and said, "Don't worry, Father. I will not listen to those civil officials on this matter."

Sun Hao then said: "Those civil officials are full of benevolence and morality, but the group of people who are most aggressive in annexing land in our Han Dynasty are the families of these civil officials.

You need to impose more restrictions on these civil officials. If they become too rampant, you can single out a few and kill them as a warning to others."

After Sun Hao abdicated, it took the Han army another four years to completely conquer the New World. The New World, which originally had more than one billion black people, had now dropped to less than 200 million.

The reason why it took the Han army so long to occupy the entire New World was mainly because the Han army spent most of the time cleansing the blacks.

The New World was divided into ten provinces by Emperor Sun Heng, bringing the number of provinces in the Han Dynasty to thirty-two.

Commander Xue Rengui, who led the Han army to conquer the New World, fell seriously ill shortly after returning to Beijing.

After learning from the imperial physician that Xue Rengui's illness was incurable, Sun Hao hurried to Xue Rengui's house.

Even though Sun Hao had seen too many old friends leave in the past few years, his face was still filled with sadness when he saw Xue Rengui who was unable to get up.

"It seems that I can no longer stay by the side of the Retired Emperor. After I leave, please take care of your health." Xue Rengui said weakly while lying on the bed.

Sun Hao said sadly, "I am where I am today, and the Han Dynasty is where it is today, all thanks to you generals.

Seeing you all leaving me one by one, but I can't do anything about it, it really... really hurts!"

"My Lord!"

Xue Rengui suddenly changed his address to Sun Hao. "We have been given a second chance to live and to follow our lord in building such a powerful Han Dynasty. Even if we die, we will have no regrets."

Hearing Xue Rengui mention his second life again, Sun Hao couldn't help but ask, "Rengui, don't you really know where it comes from?

"The Three Kingdoms, Water Margin, Sui and Tang Dynasties, Qin and Han Dynasties, Song Dynasty, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period, Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, what do these represent?"

Xue Rengui smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, none of us should know about our past lives. It is only because we have experienced past lives that we have the experience of leading troops and can fight for you on the battlefield."

In recent years, many of the brave generals and strategists summoned by Sun Hao from the "annual signing system" have died of illness.

Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Liu Bowen, Yao Guangxiao, Zhang Liang, Xiao He, Guo Jia and Jia Xu, the ten great strategists had all passed away at this time.

Sun Hao had asked Xue Rengui these questions to many generals and counselors, but still no one could answer the doubts that had been in Sun Hao's mind for many years.

After leaving Xue Rengui's house, Sun Hao, still feeling sad, suddenly heard the guards outside the carriage shouting, "Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor! There's an assassin!"

Sun Hao never expected that he would be assassinated in the capital.

However, Sun Hao was not at all panicked. He had fought on the battlefield for many years and had seen all kinds of battles.

Moreover, even though Sun Hao is already 71 years old this year, his combat power value is still 100 points. Sun Hao doesn't even take a few assassins seriously.

The carriage that Sun Hao rode was specially made for him. Although the carriage looked wooden from the outside, there was actually a layer of iron plate added between the wooden boards.

As soon as the assassin launched the assassination, he used a powerful crossbow to shoot dozens of crossbow arrows at the carriage at the same time, but they could not penetrate the iron plate in the wooden planks of the carriage. The four war horses pulling the carriage were all killed by the powerful crossbow.

As soon as Sun Hao stepped out of the carriage, he was surrounded by dozens of guards holding shields. Sun Hao instructed a guard leader, "Try to leave as many people alive as possible."

The retired emperor was assassinated in the street in the capital, which immediately angered Emperor Sun Heng. He immediately mobilized the first and second regiments of the Imperial Guards to take over the entire capital.

Li Rui, the commander-in-chief of the First Regiment of the Imperial Guard, was Li Cunxiao's eldest son, and Ran Lie, the commander-in-chief of the Second Regiment of the Imperial Guard, was Ran Min's eldest son.
