Chapter 76 The water gradually falls, and the stone gradually emerges!
The so-called fiefdom of thousands of miles and millions of mortal slaves sounds scary. In fact, in the vast and vast real world, he is just a small person.
You must know that the three counties of Qing clan alone have a radius of 20,000 miles, and there are not 100 million but 80 million mortal slaves in the territory. A vassal with millions of mortal slaves is really not a big shot.
This is only a C-level warrior who owns three counties.
And powerful vassals and super powerful vassals with dozens or even hundreds of counties have no idea how big their territory and population are. How powerful are they?
There are more than a dozen super powerful vassals in Shenzhou with nearly a hundred commanderies alone. There are also dozens of first-class powerful vassals with dozens of commanderies.
Not to mention the larger number of Class B, Class C, and Class D warriors.
Therefore, Jiang Yao was only happy for a while and then calmed down completely.
There is still a long way to go, and this achievement is nothing.
If you are not the leader of a clan, you would be embarrassed to boast about being a successful person.
"Jiang Zhongda, those who aspire to the world cannot let the clouds obscure their vision for the sake of temporary success or failure."
Ginger medicine hints at itself.
…
On the second day after the Qing Army occupied Longguan City, they did not receive the reinforcements of more than 10,000 cavalry led by Lord Zheng himself, but instead received the envoys sent by Lord Zheng.
It turned out that Lord Zheng was shocked to hear the news of the fall of Longguan City, and knew that even if he fought with the Qing Army, he would not be able to recapture Longguan City. The important capital town was occupied, and nearly half of the resources fell into the hands of the Qing Clan. Zhangtai County could no longer be saved.
Already.
Zheng Clan's vitality has been severely damaged. In such a situation, it is impossible to fight on two fronts.
He could only compromise with one party and concentrate his forces on the other. Therefore, instead of continuing to go back, he turned around and headed south again.
Lord Zheng's choice was the right one. He chose to compromise with the Qing clan who had captured his hometown, and to fight with the Gan clan in the south. It was best to defeat the Gan clan and obtain compensation from the Gan clan.
Because the loss of Zhangtai County is a fact and it will be difficult to recapture it in the short term. The other two counties can still be preserved. He must first resist the Gan clan and save the remaining two counties.
At the same time, people were sent to contact the Meng clan and form an alliance to deal with the Qing clan.
When the Qing Clan came back to protect themselves from the attack of the Meng Clan, he regained the lost ground.
This arrangement can be said to be Zheng Clan's best solution at the moment.
"Qinghuang Jun, my lord does not care about you occupying Zhangtai County. He only hopes that the two clans will cease war and repair. Zhangtai County can be ceded to Qing clan, as long as Qing clan does not send troops again..." Zheng clan's envoy said straight to the point.
Zheng Shi looked calm and polite, but his heart was full of resentment.
Are you idiots? The Meng clan is about to take over two of your counties. Instead of resisting the Meng army and defending Qinghuang County, you mobilize your precious troops to go south to sneak attack on our Zheng clan... You are sick!
So what if you despicably take over my Zhangtai County? If your homeland is lost, the Meng Clan will keep going south, beating you until you can't even stay in Zhangtai County.
When the time comes, you will have nothing. You will just make wedding clothes for the Meng Clan and the Dushan tribe.
How long can the tens of thousands of Mohu water pirates hold the Meng clan back?
snort!
Zheng Clan will not forget today's shame. One day, he will have to avenge this great revenge. Not only will he take back Longguan City, he will also attack Qinghuang City and retaliate in kind!
…
Lord Qing would naturally not refuse Lord Zheng's request for peace. He had already received the benefits and was content with having Zhangtai County in his pocket. At this moment, he had no intention of continuing the fight with Lord Zheng.
The Meng clan in the north is the most dangerous enemy.
It is also a good thing to retain Zheng Val as a buffer between Qing Val and Gan Val.
"...Report to your lord, saying that since I have captured Zhangtai County, that's the end of it. Let him use all his strength to deal with Gan Clan, but Zheng Clan's troops will all be withdrawn to the south of Zhangshui..."
Qingzhu immediately said that he only wanted Zhangtai County and promised not to go south again.
Zheng Shi was relieved. As long as the Qing army no longer went south like "a fool playing chess without caring about his family", the Zheng army could wholeheartedly fight against the Gan army and save the remaining two counties.
Losing Zhangtai County is indeed an unbearable huge loss, but now we can only swallow our anger and save the remaining two counties first.
So Zheng Shi reminded the Qing Lord in good faith: "Your Excellency Qinghuang Lord, foreign ministers have heard that after the Meng army occupied Guowei County, they will soon swallow up Yunshan County. Only half of the Gui clan's territory is left, and Qinghuang County
The county is in danger, so we should lead the army back north."
Lord Qing smiled and said: "You don't need to remind me. Tomorrow, I will personally lead 15,000 cavalry back to the north, leaving 10,000 cavalry to garrison Longguan City."
"Do you think 10,000 soldiers and horses can defend Zhangtai County? If your lord sends troops to recapture Longguan City, at least 20,000 soldiers and horses will be deployed. Then you will not be able to stop Gan clan in the south, and Zheng clan will
I'm going to die. I can promise not to go south again, but what if..."
"If you want to take back Longguan City, that's another matter. I don't mind fighting the Meng army, but you will also unite with your feuding Gan clan to destroy Zheng!"
Zheng Shi, who was cultivated in the Wuzong realm, looked ugly, but he did not dare to refute. He smiled with blood dripping from his heart and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Qinghuang Lord, our army will never dare to recapture Longguan City again."
When Zheng Shi left in despair, all the officials of the Qing clan couldn't help but laugh together.
Smiling very happily.
"Lord." Lan Sheng stood up, "It's time to order the dethronement of Zheng Clan's retainers in the city."
Lord Qing nodded and said, "Send the order, the former retainers of Zheng Clan in Zhangtai County are deposed in name and position. Anyone who wants to serve as an official in Da Qing, I will naturally select the best... Anyone who dares to resist will be eliminated."
With this order, all the former retainers of the Zheng clan in the city lost their status as retainers of the Wu clan.
This can be considered a tradition. If a martial arts clan is wiped out, the clan leader and his family will be unlucky, but the retainers will also have nothing to eat, and they will definitely lose their identity.
Even if he works for the new valve owner, it is difficult to be reused.
Jiang Yao felt awe in his heart. If Qing Clan was destroyed, his status as a retainer would be gone. He would have no choice but to look for a new boss.
On the third day, Lord Qing left 10,000 people to garrison Longguan City and led 15,000 cavalry back north.
No matter what type of resources there were in the Zheng Clan's mansion, the Qing Clan took a look at them and made a huge fortune.
There are more than 10 million spiritual jade alone!
There are also real materials, spiritual herbs, real weapons, elixirs, magic weapons, armor, talismans, real clothes, books...
In addition, thousands of horses were seized.
The financial resources of the Qing clan suddenly became abundant.
On March 12, Lord Qing returned to Qinghuang County, thousands of miles away from Qinghuang City, and finally received the news he had been waiting for.
After Lord Meng captured Qingyun City, the second largest city of the Qing clan, a sudden spiritual explosion occurred in Qingyun City, killing seven or eight thousand elite men of the Meng army.
Three Wuzong-level generals were killed in the explosion!
This was an unprecedented loss after the Meng army invaded Qingba.
The loss of seven to eight thousand people was definitely a big defeat for the C-level warriors who only had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses!
Almost at the same time, a Qing army suddenly emerged from the ground and appeared at Qingtai Pass, which had been occupied by the Mongolian army for a long time. The three thousand Mongolian troops guarding Qingtai Pass were defeated. The crucial Qingtai Pass returned to the Qing clan.
in hand.
The channel between the Meng army and the mainland was cut off.
At the same time, thousands of demon bone puppets suddenly appeared in Qingyun County's Demon Bone Ridge. Under the control of a group of puppet monks, they formed a puppet army and attacked a nearby Meng army.
Where had the Meng army seen such a large puppet army? After a fierce battle, four to five thousand people were killed and injured, another great defeat!
The Meng army, which was originally arrogant and had the upper hand, lost 15,000 elite troops in one day. It also lost the Qingtai Pass inexplicably and fell into complete passivity.
Already become a lone soldier!
After Jiang Yao learned about it, he understood what Qingzhu's killer move was.
He is really forbearing and insidious enough.
He actually deliberately abandoned the Qingtai Pass and allowed the Meng army to enter the pass and roamed the territory of the Qing clan for so long.
During this period, the Qing Army retreated again and again, and was defeated again and again. Half of its territory and resources fell into the hands of the Meng Army. The Meng Army also became more and more arrogant and underestimated the enemy.
It seems that the Qing clan really had no choice but to take the risk of "losing the north and making up for the loss in the south".
However, all these are Qingzhu's means to lure the enemy deeper.
Fighting against the Meng army to poison the homeland and fighting for both sides to suffer losses, this grand plan was of course meant to wipe out the Meng clan and the Dushan tribe in one fell swoop.
Does this Qinghuang Lord still have martial virtue?
Yu Yan guessed one step of his plan, but how did he do the other two steps?
At this time, Lord Qing no longer concealed the secrets from his retainers. Even if there were spies among the retainers, it didn't matter.
Master Qing still looked indifferent, his method was more than just these three moves, "Send the order, don't go back to Qinghuang City, go directly to Qingyun County, I should meet Master Meng. This person has been proud for so long, it's time to take a rest."
."
Jiang Yao quickly said: "Master Meng, the light of the rotten grass and fireflies, dares to compete with the Lord Tianxin and the bright moon. It is really a mantis trying to control his chariot. He does not know his own strength and makes the whole world laugh. When he is captured, I don't know how he can have the dignity to be a leader."
Lord."
"However, Master Meng is also a hero of his generation, and he is quite capable. His mistake was that he chose the wrong opponent."
When Master Qing heard this, he couldn't help but smile.
