Luochuan did not stay in Ganyuan City for a long time, but left the next day after the team completed their repairs.
The long motorcade went all the way west, passing through the Xilan Grand Canyon, before reaching the Cangyan Basin.
But this group of red-armored blood knights passing through Ganyuan didn't seem to make any waves in this rich and powerful area. They came and left gently.
In the most spacious and luxurious carriage in the motorcade, Luo Chuan was leaning on the cushions in the corner of the carriage, holding a slightly curled piece of paper in his hand, his eyes lowered in thought for a long time.
It wasn't until Siqi, who was practicing Qi with his eyes closed in the other corner, was forced out of his state by a big bump that he came back to his senses and said to Siqi, "This carriage is bound to be bumpy when driving. It's not a place for cultivation. Why are you bothering yourself?"
.”
Siqi pursed her lips and frowned slightly. After a while, she leaned toward Luo Chuan as if she was discouraged, "Where did the news come from again?"
Luochuan nodded and handed the note to Siqi, "I met Mr. Yun's people in Ganyuan City and received the information from the cheap brother. I was a little emotional."
Siqi took the note and looked at it, and immediately changed his expression, "There's a fight over in Changzhou in the Northeast?!"
Luo Chuan nodded again, stretched out two fingers and pinched hard between his eyebrows, "Earlier before we left Zhongjing City, we heard that the turmoil in the Northeast was severe, and big monsters appeared frequently. Didn't they kill the border generals of the Zhong family?
A direct descendant, even one who assassinated a close official of the prefect's family, doesn't sound like a top priority, but when you think about it, he is definitely not an insignificant little player. Maybe he is just like me, who can make a big difference.
"Everyone in the body," he rubbed his hands and continued, "Winter has entered now. The Nu River north of Changzhou, which cuts off the ground between Zhongzhou and Beiyi, has probably frozen. Beiyi's small movements in the past few months are probably...
It’s almost fermented, so it’s a natural thing to go south and tuck the edges.”
"Changzhou is not a military state to begin with. Shanbei County, which was hit hardest this time, is also the most narrow and sparsely populated place. Once the surrounding counties fail to provide support and the northern barbarians drive straight into the city, it will be difficult to go south and fight with them.
Zhongjing County faces each other across the mountains, and thousands of miles eastward, you can see the fertile land of Changzhou being swallowed up by a whale." Siqi looked worried, and the hand holding the note couldn't help but tighten, "Among the four barbarians, the first one could not help but invade the central land.
The enemy is indeed the Northern Yi. If Changzhou loses in this battle, all the other barbarians in the world will be even more ambitious. Next..."
"Yes," Luo Chuan simply lay down in the carriage. The thick fur wrap on the floor gave him a rare warmth in winter. He put his hands behind his head and stared at the ceiling, but his thoughts had drifted away.
, "Although the gun shot the first bird, this time the Beiyi troops may not be able to march straight into the city as you expected, but it may be difficult for the human race to concentrate their efforts to drive them out, not to mention the one who was just promoted as the emperor by the people below.
Can a child be able to say something? Just say that in this world of troubled times, the dark clouds are slowly approaching. The original brothers and counties are probably on guard against each other. Who can fight side by side like before? What's more?
It’s hard to figure out the enemies in all directions, so everyone has to be on guard."
"In comparison, the enthronement of this little emperor is not a big deal. According to usual practice, each county has to send important ministers to bring protons to Beijing. Now that the protons from each county have just returned home, probably no one will be willing to go back.
Okay," Siqi picked up the note and read it carefully, then folded it and put it away, "Why did Mr. Yun tell us this?"
"No one can hide this kind of thing. I will know about it sooner or later. Now that he has spent some effort to send it to me in advance, doesn't it make him look closer?" Luo Chuan responded casually.
Siqi knew that his words were most likely perfunctory, so he did not ask further, "After all, things in the North are far away from us. If I were in Zhongjing City, I would probably have to worry about whether Zhongzhou is in danger of being invaded by the Beiyi.
Now that I am in Lijun, I only care about Nanyi and Xiyi, especially Xiyi, we are getting closer and closer to them."
Seeing Si Qi's sighing expression, Luo Chuan's depressed mood improved a little. "You still underestimate Xi Yi," he paused for a while before continuing, "Xi Yi is divided into north and south.
One of them is so much bigger than Lijun. Do you really think that just Lijun can fight against the Western Yi in the west and the Southern Yi in the south? Impossible. Cangyan and even Lijun are just a corner of the defense line.
On the front line, Lijun is definitely one of the hardest bones to crack, not to mention that even if Xiyi spends a lot of time to capture Cangyan, what if the Ganyuan army goes to the Xilan Canyon to defend, relying on the human and financial resources of the Ganyuan Basin, it will be a
The Iron-Blooded Pass is ten times more difficult to attack than Cangyan's Xigu Pass, so unless Lijun messes up his position and gives Xiyi a chance to capture Ganyuan in one fell swoop, it will be extremely difficult for Cangyan to become the first choice for Xiyi to invade and attack it.
It is laborious and useless, but it is hard to tell later. For example, if the Western barbarians march eastward along the Han River to invade, then Lijun will become a hidden danger for the Western barbarians to advance further eastward. They must be surrounded and killed unless...
.....”
Siqi frowned in thought.
Luo Chuan stared at the ceiling with a somewhat confused gaze, "Let's talk about the Northland. The Beiyi went south to attack the border city of Shanbei County. They destroyed the city and massacred it. It seemed that they were thousands of miles away from me, but in fact they had no influence.
It will take a long time for it to be transmitted, and it is a real pain, that is, food prices." He sighed, "In the past six months, the news of Lu Zu's death has spread all over the world. From Zhongjing to Licheng, food prices have increased in various places. It's just that
The founding of the Ding Kingdom has enjoyed nine hundred years of peace. How many people today would believe that once the barbarians invade the world, there will be real chaos? Especially the merchants, everyone is lucky, but in this battle in the north, tens of thousands of people were slaughtered in the city, and hundreds of people in the north were killed.
Without people in it, the miserable and desolate scene will be spread all over the world under the control of someone with deliberate intentions. The hellish scene of piled heads will probably frighten the courage of many powerful businessmen who are used to living in peace.
At that time, who will be willing to sell the food supplies in their hands?"
When he said this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, his voice was quite bleak, "Tens of thousands of people were slaughtered like this, tens of thousands of people..."
Thinking about it, Qi Qi felt sad, and after a long while, he looked up as if he had remembered something and asked, "So outside of Jincheng, you asked the woman's brother for ten thousand shi of food because you had the idea of collecting food earlier?"
"Of course we have to store grain, but ten thousand dan is not enough to do anything. It was just a casual move. At that time, I didn't expect that after returning to Licheng, I would go to Cangyan to settle down."
Luo Chuan sighed deeply and said, "From the time we left Zhongjing City until now, most of the time we have been involuntarily. Living in such a big era, no matter how much we can enjoy the freedom, we still have to
It's too far away... What you said just now is right, the world's major events are still far away from us, and all we have to do now is to capture this Cang Yan."
Siqi looked at Luochuan in surprise, "You have decided to...take down Cang Yan? That second young master..."
"The road must be walked step by step. Things that are too far away cannot be seen clearly from our current height." Luo Chuan looked indifferent, but there was a bit of chill in his voice. "I originally wanted to come back to watch his last dance. Since I think so
