The ninth day of the second lunar month in the first year of the Ming Dynasty.
Yuebo Juncheng, Xuanyin City.
The special envoys of the sixteen Qiunan Wu clans, namely the Zheng clan, the Lu clan, the Song clan, and the Gan clan, all gathered in Xuanyin City of the Yue clan to discuss how to deal with the change of Jiang Yaoyi Banner becoming king.
In the Changle Hall, the music master sits in the middle, with important ministers on both sides of the music clan, and below are the plenipotentiary envoys of the Qiunan clans.
Representatives of the Qiunan Wu family nobles are all here.
The music master said: "Everyone, I have just received news that the three clans of Zhao, Wei and Yuan are resisting the Biluo tribe, and they have no time to pay attention to it. The Jin clan, for some reason, completely turned a deaf ear to it. The Ying clan, the Su clan, the Luo clan, the Zuo clan, and the An clan are beyond the reach of the whip. At the moment, they can only
You can rely on me, Qiunan."
Le Po Di, the leader of the Le Clan, was originally a general of the Le Clan clan. He had perfect martial arts cultivation and was also the cousin of the previous Le Clan leader. After the previous Le Clan Master Le Tianzuo was beheaded by Zhuang Xian in Qinghuang City, Le Po Di
The enemy took over the throne.
The Le clan is the weakest of the nine major vassals in the Western Regions, and does not even have a martial saint. The previous clan leader, Letian Zuo, was only a quasi-sage and was killed by Zhuang Xian.
Today's Yu Clan only has a few Wu Xian supporting the scene. In fact, it is no longer a first-class force. However, it is still the backbone of the Qiunan W Clan.
In fact, strictly speaking, the Le clan is not the Qiunan Wu clan. The Kela clan is the closest Jia clan to the Qiunan area. It has always regarded the Qiunan Wu clan as its own vassal, and of course it is happy to make the decision.
But the last time the music clan organized a coalition to attack Qing, they were defeated by Jiang Yao one by one, and they were defeated in all directions.
The Wulord coalition was defeated twice, and it took several years to recover. Although they were extremely hostile to Jiang Yao and the reform, they did not dare to act rashly because Jiang Yao had the Wusheng behind him and the support of many poor families.
Over the years, they have repeatedly planned to interfere with the reform and made constant small moves, but they were all cracked by Jiang Yao and others.
Especially after they learned that Jiang Yao was Jiang Longcheng and that Mu Clan and Yu Clan were standing behind him, they did not dare to raise troops again.
But this time, they couldn't bear it anymore.
Because Jiang Yao blatantly usurped the throne, established a Ming Dynasty, and claimed to be a Ming Gong. This completely exceeded their bottom line.
Moreover, it is not unknown to them that Jiang Yao has been strengthening his troops these years. In these years, they have not been idle, they have been expanding their troops and restoring their combat strength.
The music host continued: "There are Mu Clan and Yu Clan behind Jiang Yao. It is impossible to expect Shenzhou Camp to suppress and interfere."
"Right now, we can only rely on ourselves. It's time to form a coalition to attack Ni Ming and the Jiang thieves. My Le clan ancestor Shi died in the hands of Jiang Yao, and this revenge must be avenged. We can't just sit back and wait for death.
Jiang Thief promotes reform."
The special envoy of the Song Dynasty stood up and said: "Lord Lejun, when the foreign minister came, my lord told the foreign minister that this time to rebuild the coalition, the 30,000 Wu Zun soldiers of the noble clan should be the main force."
The special envoy of the Lu clan also stood up and said: "The 30,000 Wu Zun soldiers of the Gui clan are indeed the main force. Although the number of soldiers against the Ming Dynasty is unknown, the Ming army is also training the Wu Zun army, and the number must be quite large."
"The pseudo-Ming is secretly training troops in Mingshan. Among them, the Wu Zun soldiers are probably no less than 30,000."
When it comes to the Wu Zun army secretly trained by Pseudo Ming, people feel a little helpless.
They also want to train an army of Wuzun. However, the centralized power of each lord's government is low, the central government has little income, and there are too few people with Wuzun cultivation in the army. It is difficult to do it like Pseudo Ming. The central government has a lot of money and good soldiers.
The special envoy of the Gan clan said: "Lord Lejun, although the Pseudo-Ming is wild and tyrannical and has joined forces with the Ming bandits, after all, it only has twenty-three counties, so how many Wu Zun soldiers can it have?"
"But our sixteen families in Qiunan, plus the noble clans, have more than a hundred counties, a martial arts population of hundreds of millions, and our strength is several times that of Fake Ming!"
"Although the Ming army is not weak, our seventeen families will go all out to mobilize a large army, with the elite soldiers of each clan as the main force, and with Mr. Lejun as the commander, we will surely be able to defeat the false Ming Dynasty with one blow!"
"When Jiang Thief is captured, the worst he can do is to spare his life and send him to the Mu clan. The Mu clan will definitely not like the reform and will not embarrass us."
Just as Gan Shi said this, a Yue clan retainer quickly walked into the palace and said loudly: "My lord! I just received an urgent report from the south. Shang Xuan, the leader of the Yangshan bandits, has led the Yangshan bandits and defected to the Fake Ming Dynasty!"
"The two counties under the control of the Yangshan bandits, as well as the Yangshan Pass City, have all been renamed to the Ming Dynasty! The Jiang bandits have granted Shangxuan the title of Doctor Yinqing Guanglu, Yangshan Bo, Shangzhu Kingdom!"
What?! Are the Yangshan bandits and pseudo-Ming collaborating?
Even Le Po Di was horrified when he heard it.
Everyone looked ugly.
Why?
Because the location of Yangshan is extremely important, it guards the main route northward in the Qiunan area.
In the Western Region, the Qiunan area is a remote and closed area. Because it is surrounded by either deserts or tall mountains and rivers, it forms a relatively independent area.
Needless to say, the Infinite Desert in the east is a desperate place. The mountains and rivers on the other three sides are dangerous and either the rules are disordered and the space is unstable. Or they tower into the dangerous void and are difficult to overcome.
Yangshanguan City to the north of Qiunan is the main passage from north to south of Qiunan.
This passage has been occupied by Yangshan bandits for many years. With its top-notch natural formations and terrain, they have repeatedly thwarted the conquests of the Qiunan martial clan.
Now, the Yangshan thieves have turned to Pseudo Ming, which means that Pseudo Ming and Jiang thieves have taken control of Yangshan City Pass and are connected to the north of Qiunan.
Le Po Di was silent for a while and said slowly: "We sent out troops twice and failed twice. We cannot fail again this time."
"Although the merchant thief has taken refuge with the Jiang thief, the strength of our coalition is still far greater than that of the false Ming thieves. The only one to worry about is the mysterious Martial Saint."
"We want to invite a Martial Saint to help in the battle. Without a Martial Saint to take charge of the camp, it will be difficult for us to defeat the Ming army."
Everyone feels that this is indeed a problem that needs to be solved urgently. However, the Martial Saint is so noble. In the Western Region, almost all of them are the masters of a clan, or they have all gone to the Shenzhou Camp to become senior military leaders. How can they come to help the coalition forces?
?
It’s difficult.
Although they have several Martial Immortals, the gap between Martial Immortals and Martial Saints is really huge and they cannot be compared at all.
Le Po Di continued: "Don't attack Fake Ming for the time being. Each clan will prepare for another year and a half. The main thing is to invite a Martial Saint, or if we are sure of victory, it will not be too late to send troops."
"After you go back, you should immediately select elite soldiers and generals and come to the music clan to train the army together. You can't just fight on your own. The military and domain coordination will not be good."
"Over the years, we have jointly trained soldiers and horses, but we still can't integrate into one. Next, let's jointly train 50,000 martial soldiers and 500,000 elite warriors!"
"I want to see how Puppet Ming and Jiang Thief can resist with such elite soldiers!"
………
Not mentioning how the seventeen martial clans negotiated to annihilate the "false Ming", it was explained that Gong Jiang Yao was entertaining Shang Xuan and his entourage from Yangshan in the Wuji Hall.
"Senior Sister Shang, you and I have been old friends for many years. I am very happy that you did not treat me politely."
Jiang Yao, wearing a brand-new Ming Dynasty bullfight uniform and a seven-beam crown, sat on the main seat, holding a jade cup with a spring breeze on his face.
He was really happy. He didn't expect that Yangshan, which had just merged with Daming Mountain, and Shang Xuan would take the initiative to change its flag.
Sitting at the head of the guest seats was a graceful and elegant woman, who was none other than the former head of Yangshan, Shang Xuan.
Shang Xuan was wearing a brand new Ming Dynasty "Zhai Guanyun shoulder Xiapei shirt". She felt a little uncomfortable, but she had to admit that this so-called Zhai clothes for female officials did look very solemn.
Over the years, Jiang Yao has become famous in China, and she feels more and more that she was right. Because of her trust in Jiang Yao's talent and character, she decisively led her troops to return to the Ming Dynasty without hesitation.
This determination and courage alone are far superior to many people.
"Junior brother Jiang, I have this temper. Even if you dominate Qiunan, I will still not have any contact with you, senior sister." Shang Xuan said in a cheerful tone, without any hesitation in her words and smiles.
Jiang Yao suddenly stopped his cup and said, "Remembering what happened back then, I suddenly feel regretful."
Shang Xuan couldn't help but narrow her clear eyes, "Oh? What regrets does Junior Brother Jiang have?" Gu
Jiang Yao sighed: "I wish I could see my senior sister picking her feet and ears."
Hearing this, Shang Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, bending over and over with laughter.
She laughed unscrupulously and pointed at Jiang Yao, "You, you! Do you really think that the Sa family is a woman? Haha!"
Everyone sitting with them was a little confused when they saw the two people laughing and talking. But they also knew that the relationship between the Lord and Shang Xuan was extraordinary.
Shang Xuan finished laughing and said: "Needless to say, the reason why Yangshan changed its banner is a good thing and the only way out. But you have given me a lot of officials, but I have a big headache."
Jiang Yao smiled and said: "You are the first person to be knighted in my Ming Dynasty, and you are also the highest knighthood today."
Shang Xuan asked: "What about your senior brother Ouyang Feng?"
Jiang Yao shook his head: "I don't know when he will come back. Let's talk about it when he comes back."
After Jiang Yao finished speaking, he took out a volume of jade slips and said, "Although Senior Sister Shang led the soldiers and civilians of Yangshan to change flags and return to the Ming Dynasty to create great achievements together, I not only have to give an explanation to Senior Sister, but also to the brothers of Yangshan."
"This is the application for official positions in our Ming Dynasty, for civil and military officials above the ninth rank and below the third rank. Senior Sister Shang can fill in the list by herself. Whoever is suitable for which official can be appointed by you."
"Of course, our Ming Dynasty came from a poor family and became an official. This official position is not passed down to descendants like the nobles of the Wu family. Except for the hereditary and non-replaceable titles, it is the survival of the fittest and the best ones are hired."
Shang Xuan smoothed her hair, took it without any pretense and said with a smile: "I just fill in the name? Do you believe me like that?"
Jiang Yao poured her a glass of wine himself, "Yes, I just believe you."
"Haha." Shang Xuan grabbed the cup, "Okay, my lord, I thank you for your trust."
Everyone was smiling. Although this Shang Xuan was a woman, she was really free and easy-going, more refreshing than a man, and it was easy to make people like her.
Jiang Yao said: "Senior sister is very talented and has already reached the level of the God of Martial Arts. Over the years, Yangshan has been studying political reform. Senior sister is no stranger to political reform. She has also been in charge of Yangshan for many years and is good at political affairs."
"I want to set up the Zhongshu Province and take charge of the six departments and temples. I want to appoint my senior sister as the Pingzhang of Zhongshu Province to manage all the officials for me."
Although Jiang Yao was named after the founding of the country, his official system did not copy the Ming Dynasty. Because he felt that the Ming Dynasty official system was too elaborate and not suitable for the real world.
On the contrary, the system before the Sui and Tang Dynasties was more suitable.
Therefore, Jiang Yao abolished the official positions such as "commander of Chinese and foreign military affairs, recorder of ministerial affairs, and general", and did not adopt official positions such as cabinet bachelor, but planned to establish three provinces and six ministries.
The first thing to be set up is the Zhongshu Province. For the time being, the Zhongshu Province does not have Zhongshu Ling and left and right servants, nor does it have Zhongshu Shilang. It only has Pingzhang political affairs, and under it there are two left and right ministers, as well as Zhongshu She.
Four people.
It's very concise, but it can also play a role in saving books.
Shang Xuan did not refuse and asked directly: "What about your lord?"
Jiang Yaodao: "I have to go to the Central Region, and I won't be able to come back for a year and a half. I have to rely on my senior sister to pay more attention to the important military and political affairs of the imperial court."
In fact, he is not going to the Central Realm, but to the Witch Realm.
Li Xi has been summoned and she is going to the Witchland. This is the deal between her and Yu Kuan: take herself to the Witchland to borrow the "Wanxiang Gu Sutra".
He only has three years left, and he must break through the Medicine Saint mark within three years.
Otherwise it's a dead end.
Only by studying the "Wanxiang Gu Jing" of the Wu clan and gathering together in the "Shen Nong's Pharmacopoeia" could he use his medicinal spirit body to break through the barrier of Medicine Saint within three years.
Therefore, he must leave the court.
Why choose Shangxuan?
Because among the reform officials, no one has the level of martial arts. And no one has the political experience to manage a power system.
Only Ji Xin of Daming Mountain and Shang Xuan of Yangshan had the ability to rule the court.
Shang Xuan, on the other hand, has higher cultivation and stronger abilities. Although Ji Xin has managed Daming Mountain for many years, he mainly manages military power and is not good at political affairs.
Overall, Shang Xuan was the most suitable and the most reassuring for him.
Shang Xuan was indeed very happy. She had no intention of refusing: "Okay, I will do this Pingzhang political affairs. But you have to come back soon. I guess that the Wulord Alliance will launch troops soon."
Jiang Yaodao: "I have arranged the military affairs, you don't have to worry."
After the banquet, Jiang Yao simply announced Shang Xuan's appointment and dismissal, and also announced the establishment of Zhongshu Province.
It can be regarded as a fledgling Zhongshu Province.
Then, Jiang Yao, accompanied by Qi Daosi, secretly left Qinghuang City and came to a secret underground secret hall in Mingshan Mountain.
Whether this place is secretive or not, no one except Jiang Yao and a few others knows.
Jiang Yao entered the secret hall, passed through the heavy formation restrictions, and saw rows of airplanes at a glance.
That's right, it's an airplane.
There are fighter jets and bombers, thousands of them.
At first glance, these aircraft looked very similar to the modern Earth fighter aircraft that Jiang Yao was familiar with, but once he examined them with his spiritual sense, he felt that they were very different.
Earth's modern fighter jets use modern technology.
These fighters use the tools and formations of the true world, as well as some earth's scientific and technological achievements.
They look similar on the outside, but the principles are very different.
There is a lot less sense of technology and a lot more Taoism and aura.
It looks more advanced and mysterious. As for its power, it is not comparable to Earth's fighter planes at all. But it does plagiarize a lot of Earth's ideas.
This is the result of secret development by Jiang Yao ordered by Qidao Temple six or seven years ago.
He designed the drawings himself, and the weapon performance requirements were also designed by him. To this end, he also referred to the information in Wang Zhonghua's computer at the China Five-Dimensional Research Institute, which contained China's latest weapons on display.
Ever since Ou Yanyi's grandfather, the Saint of Ou Qi, was transferred to this secret base, the bottlenecks of these weapons were overcome one by one, and mass production began soon.
It can be said that these weapons that resemble Earth's combat skills are unique in the real world today.
"Lord, this is the magic weapon of the Flying Tiger generation fighter that you want. The details are all here." The European Artifact Saint handed over a jade book.
His attitude was very low. After all, Jiang Yao took Ou Clan in and saved Ou Clan.
Otherwise, their family would still be in the hands of Yongzhenbi, or they would be captured and given to the Taoist master of Qidao Shrine.
This jade book is also a specification formulated by Jiang Yao. It is very terrestrial and unique in the real world. It is actually a description of the results of the product and weapon projects.
Jiang Yao took the jade book and opened it. The first thing he saw was:
There are 520 flying tiger generation fighter jets; 300 thunder generation bombers;
Next, there are the parameters of the magic weapon of the Flying Tiger generation fighter!
