Devil’s Advent

Chapter 625 Humiliation

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

The heavy but still rhythmic panting sound echoed in the yard.

As long as there are no accidents, in his free time, Zheng Houye will always spend half the afternoon practicing swords.

In the previous life, studying hard for the university entrance examination and for a good future seemed too illusory. At that time, not many people could really realize this.

But Zheng Fan often haunts the battlefields. At the same time, he also has to worry about assassination and life-and-death threats on weekdays. This is actually the most effective and direct spur.

The blind man appeared at the entrance of the yard and stood there watching the master practice the sword.

Warrior and swordsman are two different paths.

But a swordsman is a swordsman, the pursuit of a swordsman is the sword;

Warriors don't necessarily have to use swords, and the reason why warriors basically wear swords is because "swords" are weapons that are more suitable for warriors' physique.

Of course, if it is suitable, you can also use guns, sticks and meteor hammers.

Lord Zhenghou has always practiced swords,

Even though the sword master lived next door, Lord Zheng Hou didn't choose to change his family and play with a sword master.

The quality of the knife has been changing, from ordinary knife to Wuya all the way, but the original intention has not changed.

After practice,

Zheng Fan put the saber back into its sheath;

"My lord's sword technique is getting better and better."

"This flattery is too dishonest."

"The subordinate is really not flattering, but the subordinate really sees the sword intent. The talent of the master has been proven, and it is excellent."

Hetian Wujing, Juggernaut, and even Daxia Chen are naturally incomparable.

But Zheng Fan's aptitude is actually really excellent.

After all, he had been promoted to the sixth rank in a few years, but he didn't rely on drugs to push him. The road he walked was actually very solid.

"After a while, I have to take some time to take the two of them to practice. I feel that the heat is almost ready. I have to go out and see if I can find the bottleneck first."

"With Juggernaut?"

"But is Juggernaut too boring?" Zheng Fan asked.

If you take the Juggernaut as your bodyguard, is it still traveling?

"But the Lord's safety is the most important thing, and none of us are free."

The demon kings don't have time to clone themselves, because each is responsible for a lot of things.

"Bringing a sword master is too exaggerated, let's bring Daxia Chen."

"Well, Chen Daxia is a down-to-earth person." The blind man nodded, "However, I still suggest that the master should bring some spies trained by San'er to protect him in secret, so that if there is something wrong, he can notify the master in time .”

"I'm not going far, I'm in the Tianduan Mountains."

"You have to bring that with you, because once you encounter a major event, you still have to rely on the Lord to make up your mind. This is not flattery."

"good."

Zheng Fan picked up a dry towel and wiped his upper body.

The blind man continued to report: "That grandma is awake, what Si Niang means is that while she is awake, let's arrange San'er's marriage, go through the process, and offer tea at the end.

The subordinates feel that that Hu Bamei may be Yiyi Tiaozi, she is the one who brought us the prophecy, and we may continue to count on her in the future.

This is the same as Dragon Ball Radar, allowing us to take the lead.

For this reason, it is worth sacrificing San'er to win her over with favors, and besides, San'er is also willing to do so. "

"Okay, call me when the tea is served."

It stands to reason that the parents of the man and the woman have to sit together to receive tea.

"As for leaving restrictions on Tiantian, or leaving aura on him, my subordinates have thought about it, probably, it's just those few aspects.

After all, with the power of Dayan today, regardless of how empty the interior is, it is extremely powerful externally, and Prince Jingnan's son can be called the foundation of Dayan's future.

This foundation can support the empire, or it can collapse the empire. "

"No other specific news?" Zheng Fan asked.

The blind man naturally knew what the Lord was asking,

shake your head,

road:

"There is still no concrete progress in the matter of Du Juan, because the people on Tianhu Mountain are all dead, and even some of the people involved at that time also disappeared early.

The subordinates feel that from the perspective of King Jingnan's change of attitude towards the court, Emperor Yan's side may not be completely clean, but if his subordinates are Emperor Yan, they should not be short-sighted enough to kill the chicken and take the eggs at that time. This is not to avoid future troubles, but to lay mines for future generations.

After all, at that time, although the First Prince had taken the position of Marshal of the Eastern Expedition Army, Dayan was far from the time when Asuka had exhausted his bow.

the most important is,

Yan Huang is not Lao Zhu, Tian Wujing, or Lan Yu. "

"go on."

Zheng Fan threw the towel into the water tank to wet it, and began to wipe his body again.

"It probably won't happen in Qianguo, because the subordinates definitely can't figure out how stupid Qianren must be to play such a trick.

Perhaps, in this matter, the one who suffers the most and is the most angry is that he committed suicide, and they will be very wronged. "

"Where's Chu State?" Zheng Fan asked.

"In this battle against Chu, we fought against Fengchao's internal guards a lot, and we got a better understanding of this yamen. In fact, Fengchao's internal guards really gained momentum after the regent took power. In the past, it was not so much. Great power, at least, the Chu court did not give him that much support;

In addition, many nobles stretched their hands into the inner guards of the Phoenix Nest to divide the cake. It was the regent king who reshaped the yamen after he came to power to make it tidy.

And when Du Juan died in Tianhu Mountain, there was still a rebellion among the princes in Chu State. It stands to reason that your uncle, my lord, should not have the opportunity to do such a thing.

Although, he was actually the most motivated, because at that time, once the death of Du Juan led to Tian Wujing, the Jingnan Army and the Yan court turned against each other, then it was impossible for the Yan people to annex the entire land of the Three Jins. It is impossible for human soldiers to touch Chu State.

Moreover, this trick can also lead to misfortune. Whether it is leading the hatred of the Yan people to himself or to the opposing country, he, the Chu country, is undoubtedly the party that benefits the most.

But still what the subordinates said before, the regent may have the ability or by chance, through his own channels, know the identity of Du Juan, he can do some things, and the state of Chu also has that ability, but the regent at that time Wang was able to move so delicately when he started, several parties were very surprised, and there was no place to vent their anger;

This is obviously impossible, and this is definitely not something that can be done hastily, even if he is the prince of Chu.

The difficulty of being able to do this is equivalent to that the regent re-summoned a real fire phoenix instead of a spirit on the ruins of Yingdu. "

"Heh." Zheng Fan smiled, "After such a rule, it can't be Gou Moli."

After all, the wild man king at that time was also at the poker table, although at that time he was everywhere calling himself a puppy to greet his grandfather;

"That's naturally impossible. If he really has that means, he wouldn't hold the princess's embroidered shoes and sniff them for so many years."

"What about the barbarians?" Zheng Fan asked, "It is said that the old barbarian king of the barbarians has two brushes."

"If the barbarians are possible, then Rome in the west is also possible. They have a premonition that a new great empire is about to rise in the east, so they made a stumbling block in advance."

Zheng Fan nodded.

The blind man also smiled and remained silent.

It is indeed possible for the barbarians and the West, but this possibility is very small, because the operation is too difficult.

The biggest problem is,

They are just too far away.

"The person who can push this to happen should also be on the chessboard, and it can't be too far away." The blind man said, "It's like us.

In the eyes of outsiders, even though you have been named the Lord, our team is still not valued by outsiders, but in fact, we are capable of making some big conspiracies and tricks. After all, the princess we You dare to make her unconscious, don't you?

so,

It seems that we have already sorted out the major forces, but under the water, it may not be said, there are still hidden forces like ours that have not come to the table. "

Zheng Fan picked up a robe and put it on himself,

road:

"There is a more extreme possibility, Hu Bamei's prophecy, that there is a guy who seems to be awakening in the cold pool, but who knows, has one of them awakened before?

just in case,

where they,

What about a deaf person? "

When the blind man heard this, he nodded his head and took it seriously.

"If you can't find it out, don't check it out. Anyway, if you have the opportunity to pick one by one in the future, you will always come across one." Zheng Fan is very open about this, "Now, you are busy developing, I will be busy Find out how to improve your strength.

This division of labor is also very good. "

The seven of you help one of me develop power,

I will level up on behalf of the seven of you.

"By the way, my lord, there is one more thing I need to report to you, and you should like it."

"explain."

The blind man took a few steps back,

clapped hands,

shouted:

"Enter."

for a while,

There was the sound of heavy footsteps outside,

Immediately afterwards,

Figures climbed down from the gate of the courtyard and the wall, and quickly came to Zheng Fan in an extremely neat manner, and knelt down several times densely.

"See Lord Hou!"

About two hundred people knelt down and worshiped together.

everyone,

Wearing a flying fish suit and holding an embroidered spring knife.

For a long time, Lord Zheng Hou has been obsessed with this neat and orderly ostentation since the earliest time when he briefly commanded the guards of the Marquis of Jingnan.

It's not the "Ula" that fan Li likes to shout,

but the pure kind,

wave yourself,

The guards around you understand what you mean very well, they move neatly and with the same purpose, to go up the mountain of swords and down the sea of fire for you...enjoy.

Although,

On the battlefield, Lord Zheng Hou was able to call a large number of knights to sacrifice their lives for him, but that was not neat.

at this very moment,

Kneeled in the middle by a group of "Jinyiwei\

,"In Zheng Houye's heart, there is really a sense of satisfaction of being a "factory owner".

"My lord, this group of people has been carefully selected and trained by San'er, and they will gradually replace your original guard battalion to carry out your security work.

In your original personal guard battalion, those who should be sent to the army can be sent to the army. Those who are not suitable to be captains and are loyal can go to training again, change their outfits and come back. "

Zheng Fan didn't speak, but walked up to the soldier closest to him, stretched out his hand, and touched his clothes.

Flying fish suit looks cool,

Especially when hundreds of people wear it like this, it's very pompous.

But Lord Zheng Hou is also a person who likes to talk about reality, especially, the strength of his personal guards is directly related to his own safety.

Fortunately,

Feiyu put his head down, and Lord Zheng captured the inner armor.

After knocking,

Judging from the feel and echo, it is not surprising that it is a refined iron inner armor.

The defense power is very high, but... very expensive.

This is raising the flashy to a higher level, making it flashy and still considered real.

"Outside the city, there are still many refugees who haven't got their winter clothes yet, and many people have caught the cold because of it. But you let the Garment Bureau make their flying fish clothes first."

"But it's beautiful, my lord."

"The change of our army's clothing has just begun. Many soldiers are wearing old armor, and the standard is not uniform, but you let the casting bureau first help them cast inner armor that is more time-consuming, labor-intensive, and costly."

"But it's beautiful, my lord."

"They should be the best spies trained by San'er. After training, they left me here as security guards."

"But it's beautiful, my lord."

Zheng Fan nodded,

Laughed,

road:

"It's really pretty."

Zheng Fan clapped his hands,

road;

"Stand back."

"Shua! Shua! Shua!"

All of a sudden, the two hundred "flying fish suits" all retreated in an orderly manner.

That shoulder knife, the sound of sleeves rubbing against each other, neat, beautiful and pleasant.

"This, the number doesn't need to be too much," Zheng Fan said.

"Yes, this subordinate understands."

"In addition, there is another matter that needs to be reported by the subordinates. Maybe, the Lord, you already know."

"explain."

"The princess is going to see Qu Peiluo today."

"I know, she reported it to me."

"Is the princess planning to imitate Da Yuer in persuading Hong Chengchou?"

Zheng Fan shook his head and said: "First of all, Qu Peiluo surrendered a long time ago, and secondly, I wouldn't let my woman use sex to recruit men for me.

One is that it is impossible for me to be willing, and the other is, Qu Peiluo, he is also worthy? "

talking,

Zheng Fan took out two cigarettes and handed one to the blind man.

road:

"The news from the Fan family didn't go to your place?"

"The news from the Fan family came directly to the mansion."

Because the affairs of the Fan family will involve Ji Chengjue, and how to handle the relationship with the sixth prince according to the situation, this matter has to be decided by the master.

Of course,

The most fundamental reason is that,

The blind man was worried that the Lord would be bored, so he intentionally left an opening so that the Lord could do something.

"Next time, you'd better integrate the news and go through it from you first."

"Yes, this subordinate understands."

"The news from the Fan family said that Nian Yao personally led a team of troops to Qu's outlying counties."

"Oh?" The blind man was slightly surprised, "So fast?"

"The Qingluan army was defeated first on the green beach, and then surrendered. Qu's crime of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country was punished as it should be."

"That's what I said, but Qu's repetition is..." The blind man said, nodding his head, and said, "Perhaps it's because the subordinates have used too much conspiracy and trickery, so, for these dignified things, some lights are darkened." .”

"So, my uncle probably doesn't plan to start another war in the short term. He seems to be single-minded and wants to follow the dog's route."

In a short period of time, if you want to gather strength, you will naturally have to unite all forces.

Just like when Yan State invaded Jin;

but now,

That uncle seems to be planning to cut the mess quickly.

Don't say that Qu Shi committed a serious crime, crusade against him is justified, that is, Qu Shi is innocent, but you occupy such a large fiefdom and once controlled so many private soldiers,

this,

This is not tolerated by the central government.

"Would you do that, the Regent of the Chu Kingdom, like Emperor Yan back then..."

Zheng Fan nodded and said: "I have been in contact with him, how should I put it, the feeling he gave me at that time was really a bit similar to when he was face to face with Emperor Yan, and he should be sure that he can live for a long time, I think , this should be related to the spirit sealed in his body.

Moreover, when he does things, he pays too much attention to objective laws and is too calm.

In the battle against Chu, after I set fire to Jingcheng, he immediately lay down and started killing nobles with a knife, and even Ying Du gave up when he said he would give up, wanting to bet Tian Wujing's life.

He is sure that there will be a catastrophe in the land of Yan and Jin, and the national strength of Yan does not allow the scale of the war to continue to expand and continue.

Now,

Since he has already done the first day of junior high school, he will not hesitate for the remaining fifteen years.

First destroy the Qu family in the name of righteous punishment,

Then use other means, even less caring, to further clean up the great nobles who have been hollowed out. After centralizing power, they will develop patiently and wait for the opportunity.

say,

I will never live like him, without passion or emotion. "

"Then, my lord, you let the princess go because you want to send troops to help the Qu family?"

"The land of Fan's family, the piece of Mengshan, is my bottom line, and it is also written in the agreement, Qu, in fact, it was not mentioned at all in the agreement.

It's an exchange,

it's me,

I sold Qu Peiluo, who was defeated and surrendered to me,

In exchange,

It is the Fan family and Mengshan who continue to maintain their independence.

I believe that my uncle understands my bottom line. "

Zheng Fan exhaled a puff of smoke ring, shook the ash again,

road:

"The most important thing is that after Laotian and the main force of the Jingnan Army withdrew from the land of Eastern Jin, it is impossible for us to launch an offensive against Chu alone, let alone rescue Qu.

even,

To put it bluntly,

Even the small land of the Fan family, Chu people really want to take it back with determination, we are beyond our reach.

but,

If he moves the Fan family,

Then I will definitely let Jinshuke do something in Shanggu County, no longer everyone will live in peace and even do war horse smuggling business in the future;

I will ask Jin Shuke to keep sending small groups of cavalry out of Shanggu County to harass the territory of Chu State and add obstacles to him. "

"In matters of military affairs, your subordinates are not as far-sighted and clear as your master."

"So, the reason why I agreed to let the princess go to see Qu Peiluo is... I want to let him go, and now let him go back."

Speaking of which,

A faint smile appeared on Zheng Houye's face,

"I'll ask A Cheng to separate some of the prisoners from the Qingluan Army and let Qu Peiluo take them back with him. When he returns, he should be able to see the Qu Clan's Ancestral Hall being burned by Nian Yao, and the members of the Qu Clan were slaughtered. An empty scene."

"My lord thought that Qu Peiluo would rebel against the court of Chu for revenge? But my subordinates feel that after watching too much with a filial son, it seems that this kind of thing has become less certain."

The hatred of extermination is irreconcilable;

It stands to reason that it should be like this, but in reality, there have been many counterexamples.

And the regent of Great Chu, that person, his courage to do things, will really destroy the whole family while continuing to promote Qu Peiluo, as long as he is useful.

"So, I asked him to take some of the prisoners of the Qingluan Army back. You must know that most of the people in the Qingluan Army are actually members of the Qu family and the generations of servants of the Qu family.

He, Qu Peiluo, can bear the hatred of one person, but can he bear the hatred of that group of people? "

Zheng Fan threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped on it with the sole of his boot,

"Who told us that we are unable to send troops now, so we can only throw another fly into my uncle's bowl, and let Qu Peiluo, the young master of the Qu family, pick up the pillar again after returning. The banner of the country, summon those nobles who will be liquidated next, and give him a whole thing."

"Let the Fan family give them some support?" The blind man said, "This is really interesting."

The former master and slave relationship,

After going around,

The slave is about to subsidize the master.

"The reason why Emperor Yan's stepping into the door is so straightforward is that not only with the support of the two Marquis, he has mastered the two armies that Dayan can fight the most;

The main reason is that Dayan won a series of victories in the following foreign wars. While successfully enhancing its prestige, it also diverted internal conflicts. In fact, at that time, you and I could both see and understand that once the foreign war was frustrated and hindered, what kind of chaos would immediately ensue within the country of Yan.

Look now, Zuo Jiqian has been promoted to a guerrilla general with me, but he was born as a prisoner of a powerful family.

As for my uncle, hehe, where can he transfer the conflict?

never possible,

How about going to fight the country? "

...

The military stronghold of the Royal Guards appeared on the edge of Qu's fiefdom.

In the past, this was actually a great provocation.

Because in terms of political status, the private fiefdoms of the great nobles are sacred, and the great nobles recognize that the Xiong family is the royal family, but the great Chu world was brought down by them and the Xiong family. Naturally, they have to sit together.

It's just that your bench is higher, and ours is shorter.

It's not that the nobles have declined, been annexed, and abolished, and it's not that the emperor of Chu State wanted to strengthen the centralization and suppress the nobles, and it's not that they didn't achieve results at all;

But for one thing, the nobles have an instinctive sense of crisis, and when necessary, when the imperial power oppresses them, they will know how to unite;

Second, during the transition of imperial power, the princes will inevitably need the support of the nobles, so it often happens that when Lao Tzu managed to cut some of the nobles' fiefdoms and powers when he was in power, he returned them back when his son succeeded. .

However, Qu Shi, it is different after all.

Even if his young master was defeated and surrendered to the Yan people, even if the Qingluan army turned back and became the Yan people's servant army,

However, Qu Shi is Qu Shi after all.

Its background is here, as is the prestige of its Zhu Kingdom lineage.

Even if it is such a big crime, in the past, it was nothing more than three cups of wine as a fine, expelling Qu Peiluoge from his clan, and denying this descendant.

In fact,

The Qu family did indeed do this. After hearing the news of Qu Peiluo's defeat and surrender, the Qu family's first reaction was to hold a clan meeting. The identity of the direct line; and send someone to write a letter to the regent to show Qu's attitude.

Then,

When Yan Jun started digging the noble family's graves under the leadership of Ping Xihou, Qu Shi was still a little nervous. For this reason, he also sent someone to contact Yan Jun.

Hey, don't say it, Lord Pingxi is very generous!

After all, at that time, the Yan people were powerful, and the capital of Ying was burned by the Yan people, so Qu sent people to the Yan people to contact the Qingluan Army and Qu Peiluo, and brought letters and greetings.

In short, the meaning is that it is forced by the current situation to expel you from the clan. You are still the young master of the Qu family, and you are still a good son of the Qu family.

Betting against each other, every big noble is well versed in this.

The war ended, the peace treaty was concluded, the Yan people withdrew their troops, and the Qu family once again announced to the world, reprimanding the unworthy descendant Qu Peiluo for forgetting his family.

Then,

Qu felt that he had done enough, so he also sent the patriarch selected by the new lineage to go to Wang Jia to plead guilty again, crying bitterly to show his loyalty.

Things, it's almost like this, it's been like this for hundreds of years, isn't it?

A great nobleman, especially one of Qu's size, even if he committed the crime of treason and finally confessed his mistake, that's all. What do you want?

Qu's people feel that they have done a good job, and their attitude is very correct. Even, quite a few Qu's have been speaking out, planning to re-form the Qingluan Army, and then attack the Fan's family and take back the Mengshan boundary .

They are not trying to recover the lost land for the Chu State, but to recover their own fief.

Then,

A royal imperial army under the banner of the general,

Appeared on the edge of Qu's fiefdom.

for a while,

The whole Qu family panicked, and they immediately sent people to the military camp to inquire about the news and ask to see the general, but they were all rejected by the general. General's call.

dreadful haze,

For the first time the depths descended upon this region,

Even when Yanren's soldiers missed from here, they were not so depressed.

...

"Do you really want to do this?" Xiong Tingshan asked while sitting in front of the regent.

"Interesting, whose side are you sitting on?" the regent asked while reviewing the memorial.

"I can't swallow this breath."

"Swallow it or not, you have to swallow it. In fact, you also know that since my sister-in-law burned Jingcheng, we will not win this battle."

"But, it shouldn't be like this."

"This is the best result, fifth brother, I hope you can help me, we two brothers, hand in hand, first clean the house thoroughly, and then plant a few crops, the granary is full, and the dolls will start Running, dancing and making trouble on the field;

Let's get back the lost face and face. "

"Fourth brother, I'm feeling panicked in my heart. I didn't expect it to be like this. Really, I didn't expect it to be like this. I thought I could help you and keep the Yan people from the north, but you..."

"Okay, okay, let's do things, hurry back to your Wutong County, take charge of the situation, suppress a group of people, but also support a group of people.

Those Shanyue people have been conquered by my Great Chu for hundreds of years. Their leaders have long spoken and written Xia language. What's the real gap?

I can open the door of the imperial court, let them enter the court as officials, and let them become my own people. "

hear this,

Married to a Shanyue woman who gave birth to several children of Shanyue blood, the former fifth prince of Chu, now His Royal Highness Xiong Tingshan clenched his fists and stood up.

almost roared;

"Fourth brother, how dare you do this!"

"Why don't you dare? Fifth brother, I originally thought that you would see it more openly than I did, and you would even be more happy to see this scene, didn't you?"

"This... this is not right."

"There is nothing wrong, can you say that your child is not from Chu?

Learn Xia Yan, write Xia characters, and follow Chu rituals. This is Chu people. For hundreds of years, I have been making troubles in the south of Great Chu, and it is time to end.

Not to be the emperor of the great Chu nobles,

I want to be

He is the emperor of the entire Great Chu people.

As long as the southern border can be accommodated and the troubles of mountains and rivers can be completely cut off, the recovery of our Great Chu's national power will be faster, and even after the recovery, the Great Chu will be stronger than before.

To put it bluntly,

The rich land of the world,

One point goes to Yan, one point goes to Jin, five points go to Gan, and three points go to Chu, but in fact, those three points go to Chu, which doesn't count towards my big southern border of Chu.

Let's see how other Yan people toss and make trouble,

His family background,

that's all

let him make it,

After really fighting,

Don't be afraid of him! "

Xiong Tingshan took a deep breath, bit his lips, and asked a very practical question,

road:

"Fourth brother, you want to let the Shanyue people into the dynasty and suppress the nobles. Those nobles will go crazy, and even the common people will go crazy too."

talking,

Xiong Tingshan pointed outside,

"Forbidden Army, will they also go crazy?"

By implication,

This is a defeated country, but internally, it has started to act so violently. Is your dragon chair still sitting securely?

Hearing this question,

The Regent laughed,

road:

"Actually, you also know that I have always admired the emperor of Yan Kingdom very much, so I plan to see the virtuous and think like him."

...

for many days,

None of the Qu clan could see General Nian, they could only watch General Nian's flag flying in the military camp.

The rebuke from the imperial decree and the questioning of the teacher are far more comfortable than this complete silence.

finally,

In the early morning of this day, the imperial guards were dispatched. They divided into several groups and formally marched into the heart of Qu's fiefdom.

The Qu family's fief is very large, and the population is actually quite large, but there are only a small number of people with the surname Qu.

Although the entry of the imperial guards made the members of the Qu clan panic, the local people seemed very indifferent.

The imperial guards holding the general's flag marched directly outside the city where the main clan of the Qu clan was located.

A eunuch holds a decree,

to the front of the army,

Under the watchful eyes of members of the Qu clan on the top of the wall and some private soldiers who barely pulled together,

The decree was read:

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said: Qu's family has received the country's favor, but he does not think about serving the country loyally.

This is a very brief decree,

When chanting this out loud,

The eunuch raised his head,

Looking at the densely packed human heads on the city wall,

A cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth,

"His crime should be punished!"

...

Min'an City, located in Minshan Mountain, is a strategically important city. In the early years, it used to be the border of Qi State.

Qi State is the heartland of Zhuxia, that is, a country that was separated during the chaotic period after the collapse of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Originally, Qi State did not intend to get involved in the war in the Central Plains, because it felt that its opponents were getting stronger and stronger, so it simply opened up to the east to bully the Shanyue people there, and at the same time, to achieve the goal of expanding the territory and population.

At that time, the Chu people were actually constantly encroaching on the territory of the Shanyue people. In short, at that time, the Shanyue people were just a victim, and anyone could bully him.

In the end, the two sides bullied and bullied together, leading to a meeting. There was a war between Chu State and Qi State, but the main force of Qi State had to be placed in the west to prevent itself from being annexed by other countries, and this branch of Chu State was not The imperial guards are the private troops sent by a family of nobles.

Therefore, the scale of the war after the collision between the two sides is actually not large. Usually, today you pull out my army stronghold, and tomorrow I occupy one of your army fortresses.

Anyway, both sides are currently developing maps and don't have the energy to actually control them. Therefore, they just want to show off their strength in front of the local Shanyue people and make the local Shanyue people submit to themselves instead of the other side.

Then, with the increasing momentum of the Chu people to open up the southwest border, more and more manpower, material resources and military power could be projected, but it was taken for granted that Chu State formally attacked Qi State, but it did not appear.

Because, at that time, the Qian Kingdom was born.

Yes, the Qian State was born with abundant martial virtues. Under the leadership of the Emperor Taizu of the Qian State, they destroyed many separatist countries and completed the internal unification. Object.

Therefore, at that time, the Chu people actually turned into supporting Qi to resist Qian.

But the army and generals of the Qian State at that time were very capable of fighting, and the Qi State was eventually destroyed. For this reason, the Chu people and the Qian people fought several times on the border.

The Chu people failed to take advantage of it. Ganren's own territory is too good. After the Qi State is gone, there is not much desire to open up to the outside world. At least, he does not intend to start a war with Chu State for a piece of Shanyue people's territory.

In addition, after the death of Emperor Taizu of the Qian Kingdom, Emperor Taizong was hanged and beaten by the first Marquis of Zhenbei in the Northern Expedition, which caused the military of the Qian Kingdom to slump since then. Slowly, he fixed his southeastern territory on the Minshan line.

In recent years, although Gan Chu had occasional frictions on the border, they were all within controllable range. Most of the time it was because when the Chu people were digesting their territory, the Gan people accepted the chain reaction caused by some Shanyue fleeing people.

then,

As the Yan people began to use their troops abroad, the border between the two sides became completely quiet.

Minzhou City is a "big city" in the surrounding area, and it is also a nearby material distribution center, including the Shanyue people in Chu State. Their so-called "going to the market" actually means bringing mountain goods or other products to Minzhou City for trading.

In the early years, the Gan people's armaments were slack, and the three sides were flooded with water and starved of wages, let alone the less important southeastern border guards.

Fortunately, cats have cats and mice have rats. If the court pay is not enough, the big soldiers can change their appearances and become businessmen.

The first is the local mutual market, and the second is the commission of caravan exchanges, which is the so-called smuggling. In short, military business was once a traditional skill of the leaders of the national army.

In this regard, the lords of the past dynasties have also turned a blind eye to this. After all, if you are really a "warrior who does not love money", the lords and officials will be even more afraid.

Today is the first day of junior high school, and as usual, it is the day of the assembly.

One by one, the soldiers in dry armor began to transfer goods and organize caravans to come in and out. Some young generals played their abacus more smoothly than their swords.

A caravan from Chu land came in,

The cadres and soldiers dispersed the Shanyue people who were blocking the road and let the caravan come in, one by one, with flowers on their faces, obviously happy.

They knew that when the Yan people attacked Chu, the Chu people were beaten terribly, many nobles were demolished, and even their ancestral graves were dug up by that Lord Pingxi.

Therefore, the aristocrats of the Chu State who have been seriously injured are in urgent need of blood recovery. Therefore, the goods will be better and the price will be cheaper, just to see the benefits of early shipments.

It is profitable for Ganren, who doesn't open his own business restaurant behind his back? Even if it is not open, it is still responsible for a business here for the big shots from Shangjing.

This kind of business that the other party is eager to sell is naturally more profitable.

even,

In order to belong to this Chudi caravan, several generals even pulled their subordinates to fight directly.

Because they know in their hearts that this batch of goods, no matter who eats it, will definitely make a lot of money.

The scene was once very chaotic.

It stands to reason,

As a military town, Minzhou City can't be so depraved, at least, it has to maintain a certain dignity.

But the problem is,

In the past two years, the imperial court has transferred troops from here twice to enrich the three sides.

Those thorns, those who still have some dreams, those who are not willing to join forces, and those who are really able to lead troops and show a little bit of appearance, have all been squeezed out by local interests.

so,

The current Minzhou City is a city of commerce and trade on the southeast border of the Qian Kingdom.

at this time,

The shopkeeper of the Chudi caravan, who had previously stuffed money everywhere to pass the customs with a smile on his face, suddenly took out a fire letter and pulled it out.

"Whoosh!"

next moment,

The caravan guys and the Shanyue people who came to the market today all took out their weapons and charged at the Ganren defenders in the city.

outside the city,

A well-rectified Chu army emerged and charged towards Minzhou City.

Along the southeast boundary of Qianchu, similar scenes happened in many places at the same time.

In a military camp,

General Nian Yaonian, who was suppressed by Jingnan Wang Tian Wujing for a long time at Zhennan Pass and dared not fart,

out of the tent,

today,

Old age is at last on man,

I found the joy of being a general again.
