Although Yu Cangmiao and Qin Fan have the same goal, they have completely different ideas in the process of moving forward. Therefore, the two have a tacit understanding not to interfere with the other's decision, and at the same time they are also using the other's layout to improve their own plans.
.
The effect of Yu Cangmiao's strategy of combining vertical and horizontal lines was a variable that was slightly beyond Qin Fan's expectations.
For example, Zhang Sanfeng, who originally said that he would personally participate in the battle for the Qianlong List, had to personally take charge of the Dao Domain. This also made Qin Fan realize that the degree of chaos in the situation this time would be far greater than expected.
Then the help that Dao Domain, which was regarded as a powerful ally, would be greatly reduced.
Therefore, he needs a more powerful force as a helping hand, not only in this battle for the Qianlong List, but also in the subsequent chaos in Kyushu.
So after thinking for a moment, he targeted the Daxuan Dynasty, which was in a state of isolation and helplessness like the Ghost City to a certain extent!
Install the latest version.]
Of course, to be more precise, it is the Emperor Xuan who sits in the position of the Nine-Fiveth Lord!
Qin Fan didn't know much about Emperor Xuan, and even the world knew very little about Emperor Xuan. The most powerful decision he made after he ascended to that position was to arrange for Yu Cangmiao to become the prime minister.
Although this move was influenced by the power of cause and effect, there is no doubt that Emperor Xuan's own considerations must also be involved.
And the result it produced was the optimal solution in that difficult situation, because just when Yu Cangmiao stepped forward to rectify the court and began to consume the power among the academic clans, Emperor Xuan, who was hiding behind the scenes, targeted
Put it in the military.
Nowadays, the eight Daxuan states have fallen into chaos, but the Six Paths Legion, which is the real power of the Daxuan Dynasty, has not wavered on the side of Emperor Xuan.
After Yu Cangmiao started to implement Hezonglianheng, Murong Qiudi and others also began to secretly connect, including the eight major families with considerable say in the court. Didn't any of them try to speak out against the Six Paths Legion?
.
Obviously they must have made preparations for this, but they undoubtedly failed.
This also made Qin Fan realize that Emperor Xuan was not as mediocre as he usually behaved. He did not lack courage at critical moments, and he also had considerable wisdom and personal charm.
And being able to confirm this would have met Qin Fan's basic requirements for cooperation.
Then what he has to do next is to contact Yuhuang Xin through the sound transmission token, and then wait for Emperor Xuan's reply.
As time went by, after increasingly bad news reached the center of the imperial city, he believed that Emperor Xuan would make the right decision, even if the other party knew that he was no different from those forces that stood up to rebel.
The ambition is even greater when it comes to ambition.
But Qin Fan is still confident that Emperor Xuan will agree to his conditions, because today's Daxuan Dynasty needs a force that still supports Daxuan's orthodoxy to contain Baihutang and other forces in the south. At the same time, Daxuan Dynasty also needs sound transmission tokens and airship technology
Such a battlefield weapon.
This not only represents the final face of the Daxuan Dynasty, but also is the key to the victory or defeat of this war.
Qin Fan also needs Daxuan's name to help him stabilize the entire Nanxuan Prefecture in the shortest possible time.
The dark tactics he used before wiped out the people's expectations for the Daxuan Dynasty with blood and killing, but this does not mean that when Qin Fan raises a counter-flag to split the Nanxuan Prefecture, he will get the support of all the people.
The orthodoxy of Daxuan has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people after thousands of years. It took many years of efforts in the Buddhist and Taoist realms to completely tear off this label. It also took other forces a long period of time to establish their own prestige.
The Wangyou Ghost City has only been established for less than a year. Even if the dark righteous methods are rough and direct enough, and the spread of the Wuyou Sect's teachings has received support from many people, it cannot replace other forces in a few months.
Decades of hard work.
Not to mention that in today's troubled times, any small hidden danger will be directly magnified hundreds of times. If the ghost market is allowed to delay the precious development time of the entire Nanxuan Prefecture, it will be called a loss outweighing the gains.
Therefore, Qin Fan needs a name that can restore order as quickly as possible.
This name can only be given by the person sitting on the throne.
"Actually, this is not an imperial edict, it is just a transaction treaty." At this moment, Shang Zhonghe stood up, and then under Qin Fan's instruction, he unfolded the scroll and pointed to the mark at the end representing the Daxuan Dynasty.
Sima Kongming, who was closest to him, did not look at the contents of the scroll, but asked Shang Zhonghe in confusion:
"Why do you have this thing? Have you joined forces with the ghost market a long time ago?"
Shang Zhonghe shook his head and said: "Your Majesty prepared this early in the morning. It could have been given to you, to Mu Zhou Mu, to Pavilion Master Zhu, to Chief Yuan, or even to Miss Murong, but only Gui Zun
Your Excellency made the most correct decision."
Sima Kongming frowned slightly. He had completely boarded the pirate ship. Since there was only one way left, he had enough courage to face all this.
Even though he knew that he might have lost a rare opportunity just now, he had no regrets.
At this moment, his eyes were also looking at the contents of the scroll.
"If the Wangyou Ghost City side kills the three great masters and rebels, then Sang Chifang, Huang Shenghai, and Lu Qing will be appointed as the city lords of the giant city of Nanxuan Prefecture respectively.
If Wangyou Ghost City kills five great masters and rebels, Yan Kuangshan will be appointed as the prefect of Nanxuan Prefecture.
If the Wangyou Ghost City kills more than ten Grand Masters and rebels, the leader of the Ghost City, Qin Fan, will be appointed as the King of Daxuan Zhennan, and the eleven regions of Nanxuan Prefecture, five regions of Southwest Prefecture, and Southeast
The five areas of the state capital and the dangerous lands and deserts to the south are divided into their personal territories."
"Crazy! Emperor Xuan is completely crazy! There has never been a king with a different surname since ancient times! Not to mention that he actually agreed to establish this country, China!" Sima Kongming felt dizzy, and he even thought his eyes were blurred.
All representatives of the forces present felt that it was ridiculous for Emperor Xuan to make such a promise!
But a few of them quickly calmed down and thought of Emperor Xuan's intentions.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gong Ziyu held up the bronze mask and looked at Qin Fan seriously:
"Your Excellency Ghost Lord, do you know what it means to kill the so-called ten great masters and rebel generals?"
Qin Fan nodded and said:
"It means that I, Guishi, will fight to the death with you, but even without this promise, can we just go back to our respective homes?"
Hua Yaoyue sneered and said:
"More than that, any force that splits Kyushu will be a natural ally, and we all know how powerful the Daxuan Dynasty is, so we can't be stupid enough to consume each other before solving Daxuan.
Even when Young Master Gangyu learned that the Northern Barbarians had plotted against his adoptive father, he did not fall out because he knew better who the primary enemy was.
And once you take over this scroll, you will also be our primary target, especially..."
"Especially when troubled times are approaching, wealth and resources are top priorities. In addition, the machine train technology mastered by Ghost City is a treasure that other forces must get their hands on." Qin Fan's tone was still so gentle, but
Hua Yaoyue was also blocked until she couldn't say a word.
"But as I just said, even if we, the Gui City side, choose to stand with you, will the result change?
The reason why you forces appear here at this critical moment seems to be because of the various promises secretly made by the idiot Sima Kongming. In fact, the most important thing is to divide the wealth of the ghost market.
After confirming that Linxue Nuanxiang Pavilion had planted several spies in the ghost market, I knew that the wealth in the ghost market could not be hidden.
Anyone with a little bit of savvy only needs to observe the passenger flow in the Ghost Market and the daily consumption of major core buildings to come up with an astronomical figure that would make any power move.
Money is needed in troubled times, money is needed to fight wars, and money is needed to strive for hegemony, and no one will object to having too much money."
"Then do you, Lord Ghost, believe in Emperor Xuan's promise?" Murong Qiudi began to tell from another angle at this moment.
"He obviously wants to use this to provoke us to fight against each other. If the Gui City side wants to avoid the war, there may not be a too cruel bloodshed. But now he has given you a reason to let you
I have to stand here.
Of course, what I am more suspicious of is why Emperor Xuan made such a crazy promise. Head Shang, you should have just seen His Excellency Guizun write down some secret words that only you and Emperor Xuan know, so you chose to believe him.
.
But how can you be sure that the other party did not learn these secret words through other means.
After all, there has never been a king with a different surname in the Daxuan Dynasty since its establishment. Even if it is just a seemingly unrealistic transaction treaty, Emperor Xuan should not agree to it so easily."
These words made Shang Zhonghe hesitate, and all the forces present also realized that Murong Qiudi's move was to beat the ghost market to the unjust side, and their act of dividing Daxuan's territory was unjust.
Lift.
By fighting injustice against injustice, they can force them to a starting point.
Don't underestimate the word "righteousness", it will affect the morale of the soldiers, the speed of pacification after the war, the support of the local people, including the victory or defeat of the entire battlefield.
Even if they are great masters and masters, if they participate in an unjust war, their own strength will be affected to a certain extent.
Qin Fan just smiled and said:
"What you said makes sense. It's really not easy to get that person to agree to my conditions. Even though the hotel in my ghost market offered a lot of favors for this, I even invited the old man to do it.
Even though Emperor Xuan came to help, he didn't let go."
Everyone knew that the hostess of the ghost market was Princess Daxuan, Yuhuang Xin, but the old man he mentioned left a few people present a little confused.
Only Yu Lianrong's face turned pale, apparently thinking of something.
But at this moment Qin Fan looked at Sima Kongming and said:
"Thirteen years ago, the Red Robe Army sent troops to carry out a large-scale suppression of bandits in Xuanyang Territory. You should be very clear about it. Who gave the order at that time?"
"Too...the Empress Dowager."
"The past events from seventeen years ago are also yours..."
"enough!"
Sima Kongming was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. He had only told two people about this matter, one was Yu Cangmiao and the other was Ying Tianhong. No matter which one of these two people Qin Fan learned about, it would not matter to him.
Neither is a good thing.
At the same time, he also realized something: Qin Fan might have known for a long time that he had evil intentions towards Wuyou Villa.
"idiot!"
The sound in his ears woke up Sima Kongming, and he saw Ge Shutian looking at him with disdain and saying:
"You are really cooperative. You answer whatever others say."
Sima Kongming realized later that he mentioned the Empress Dowager, which undoubtedly confirmed the relationship between the other party and Qin Fan, which also confirmed the authenticity of this imperial edict.
After all, what he said as a person who wanted to kill Qin Fan was the most convincing.
Then he realized that what Qin Fan just mentioned was that even though the Empress Dowager spoke, Emperor Xuan still did not agree to this condition.
"The time has come."
Qin Fan suddenly looked towards the darkening horizon and saw two red-eyed black falcons flying past. After taking two of the letters, Murong Qiudi showed a rare hesitation. She vaguely felt that this message was
What's coming is not good news.
"Don't you question the authenticity of this edict? You should understand it after reading the information inside."
Murong Qiudi bit her lip, then opened the first letter, glanced at Yu Gucheng quickly, and then said:
"In the Yue Ling Mountains, the capital of the northwest state, Qiu Xiangshan, one of the Eight Wolf Generals, and his thirty-six generals were assassinated by the ghost city Tianshou Night Emperor. A total of thirty-seven people died on the spot, which led to the formation of this army.
The situation fell into chaos, and fierce conflicts broke out between local and Jianghu forces."
"Heaven's Head, Earth Su, Yanshi, Master, Poison Doctor...I am not the only one in my ghost city." Qin Fan looked at Yu Gucheng who looked calm beside him, and behind him he wanted to be extremely angry.
Cang Lie took action, but was suppressed by the momentum of the black-robed men and could not move, so he continued.
"Qiu Xiangshan is one of the top five famous generals in the world. As the saying goes, a hundred generals are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. If his numbers are not enough, how about adding another famous general?"
Murong Qiudi opened another letter tremblingly, obviously she had thought of some possibility, and then her face suddenly turned pale.
"In the Tianyuan Gorge, the capital of Northeast China, the famous marshal of the Northern Xinjiang royal family, Gong Xiche, was attacked by the leader of the Sihai Gang, Qiao Baxian.
After four attacks, he broke through the heavy defenses and blasted Gong Xiche to death. After that, he relied on his own strength to take advantage of the terrain of Tianyuan Gorge to fight against thousands of troops, leaving this army stuck in Tianyuan Gorge for an hour.
"
"Two of the top five most famous generals in the world have died. Isn't this pledge of honor not enough to be a promise of the throne?"
At this moment, Shang Zhonghe no longer had any doubts and stood firmly beside Qin Fan. He knew better that the death of these two people at the beginning of the war was the most important thing to save Da Xuan's face, so that Emperor Xuan made this thousand gold purchase.
The behavior of the horse bones is not surprising.
"Calculating, it's almost time. Stop playing with the three over there and start the Hidden Dragon List."
As Qin Fan finished his sentence, the atmosphere at the scene became solemn.
