This immortal was pacing on the cliff, the wind blowing the sleeves of his crimson robe, and his words were cold.
"But now the new King of Chu, Jingzhuang, has gone through the process. Although the unification was not successful, it was the result of the Cai Dynasty's containment. His ability is still visible, and he has accumulated some resources. As soon as he takes office, the King of Chu has become the leader in fire virtue... Of course
, you have taken all the land of Xiaoxiang, and you can compete with the Chu State."
"But now it's just Shonan...do you understand what I mean?"
Zhang Weicun was stunned when he heard this, and his face was hard to distinguish. Fighting for the dragon in the world, even in terms of five virtues, is a huge investment, and it is impossible to give it again and again.
"Heaven and God cannot take it, but they are to blame." If Ye Qing were here, he would say this, but even without this sentence, there are similar principles in this world.
"That means I only have one chance next time... If I don't take Xiaozhou, it will be difficult to compete for the dragon?" This actually means that the higher-ups are about to withdraw their investment.
"It's like this... It's cruel, but it's still not as sharp as Bai De's fierce and dedicated fight. They even fought each other, and the winner survived."
"Our Chide emphasis is on spreading fire seeds everywhere. There are many fire princes, and recently the seeds of potential have been emerging."
"You... have a better chance, but now... you really only have one chance to get lucky. Of course, we are not unreasonable. Xiangzhou's setback is not a problem of ability. It's just bad luck that Cai Chao picked the fruit and hit again.
To the only Immortal Marquis in Qingmai."
"While this round of war against foreign lands is almost certain, I am here to bring you the heavenly merit reward. Especially since you have persisted in Xiangnan for so long and accumulated a lot of heavenly merit. Come here early so that you can go to Xiaozhou as soon as possible.
Strength...you choose carefully." The immortal handed him a red jade disc.
The Xiangyin Cave Heaven is the core battlefield in the lower reaches of the Qianjing River. Being the host of the Cave Heaven has persisted for so long, and indeed has a lot of heavenly skills. It can be said that it was paid for with blood.
It was originally going to be used as fuel to attack the Immortal Realm, but now it seems that it needs to be realized in advance and turned into combat power as soon as possible.
Zhang Weicun thought for a moment and checked some magical formations and magic weapons that were very targeted at besieging and killing foreign ships. The immortal put them away and glanced at them, knowing that his ambition was still there, and he was a little satisfied.
The red light flew into the sky, and soon fell one after another. They all concentrated this round of rewards, and quickly completed the handover. The immortal seemed to have other tasks to convey to the princes, and stepped out of the cliff with one last wish: "There
Make the noodles well and don’t let us down.”
"Yes, congratulations to the immortal."
Zhang Weicun bowed on the ground. The rocks on the cliff were a bit cold to the touch. From the corner of his eye, he saw a red light disappearing into the sky. He seemed to be heading to the northwest. He remembered that there were several Huode princes in Yunzhou...
The presence of the fairy spirit disappeared from the induction, and he got up, thoughtfully, and sighed deeply.
There is a top-secret story in Zhang Weicun. It is said that his mother accidentally stepped into a huge red footprint and dreamed of a red dragon falling into her arms when she returned.
Looking at it now, physically, he is still the blood of his father, but with the red energy in his womb, he can be regarded as a descendant of a certain person.
I just don’t know who he is. Judging from the treatment, he actually has a very high status in Chide, but he still can’t cover the sky with one hand. There are so many competitors.
Not only is there competition with other countries, there is also fierce internal competition, and no one can get the resources alone.
By this time, he was a little envious of Ye Qing in the north, or Wei Yu further away.
Although the rain became lighter, the mountain breeze suddenly felt cold, and Zhang Weicun's heart gradually became hot. He paced back and forth on the cliff for a while, and finally looked to the east.
Hearing the chaotic footsteps behind him, he said: "Send the order, assemble the army and prepare for war. We will pursue Xiaozhou and continue to encircle and suppress the enemy ships."
"I just finished the reward and you didn't even take a break...Isn't it a little too hasty?"
"If we don't take advantage of this opportunity, we won't have a chance until Prince Xin or the Marquis of Han reaches Xiaozhou... Also, let's find out how the Han Marquis Mansion responds to the Chu alliance... If Ye Qing announces an alliance,
We also declare our alliance with Chu."
Zhang Weicun said, looking back at the crowd: "I know this will cause Cai Dynasty's Northern Army to target, but we, Huo De, are all on the same page. It will be a matter of time. At most, Yingzhou can take the lead and delay for a few days."
It's just that the risk is reduced day by day... After all, Cai Dynasty's great fortune has been suppressed."
"I have no objection."
Everyone agreed and went down to prepare. The previous defensive battle in southern Hunan had risen to an extremely dangerous intensity. It was difficult for one family to compete. This experience and lesson was not only gained in southern Hunan. There were many forces in the north who were paying attention to this fairy war. They must also
Be wary.
It can be foreseen that in the not-too-distant future, as long as the Han Dynasty Mansion responds to Chu's alliance, it will be a signal to start alliances and mutual assistance in the north. Even if other princes are not qualified to receive Chu's invitation, they will choose the nearest one based on their own strategic interests.
Allies, support each other and resist foreign lands... Of course, it is also important to counter the Cai Dynasty, force it to stop expansion and annexation, and turn to mutual cooperation.
Everything is in line with the overall situation of cultivating seeds in heaven. The great fortune belonging to the Cai Dynasty is being suppressed. Its general trend is ebbing, and many naked swimmers will be exposed. But the era of vertical and horizontal alliances belonging to the princes is coming - who can lead it?
In this new trend, who can continue to stand at the top of the wave?
The mountain wind surges across the pine forest, penetrates the clouds, and howls to the north. The destiny hangs high in the blue sky of Kyushu, waiting for someone to hand over the answer sheet.
Central Hunan·Fengliang City
The weather seems to be improving. It has rarely rained in recent days, but the atmosphere in the county palace has become more and more dull. The officials who come and go are in a hurry and try not to stay here for fear of provoking the wrath of the prince... Ha, in the land of a county
Your Majesty, you are really the king of the county.
Under the darkening clouds, a streak of dragon energy was clearly visible. It seemed that because the Xiangzhou Navy was away away from work in Qianjing River, the support from the county level alone was gradually insufficient, and the weakness of the dragon energy was finally exposed.
Although he is not alone with only his life left, it will be difficult to see the true nature of the prince until the Cai Dynasty is overthrown, but the aura of the entire palace is already visible to everyone.
There has always been a tradition in human society that when a tree falls and the hozens scatter, and when a wall falls and everyone pushes it away, the prince's palace has not yet fallen, but it does not prevent some monks who know how to look at the energy from making mental calculations.
Rumors even spread to the public. A big reason for this is related to the rumor that the Marquis of Han raped the princess. At that time, it was out of political necessity and no ban was imposed, but this invisibly weakened the majesty of the royal family in the hearts of the local soldiers and civilians. Until now
Such rumors cannot be stopped even if they are blocked.
"I haven't seen the princess out for a long time..." someone asked strangely, finally feeling that the recent rumors had gone too far: "You are gossiping so much now, sooner or later you will have to settle the matter.
Someone laughed: "Now that the county and prince's palace is about to collapse, there is nowhere left to take care of this. I heard that even the princess has gone back to her parents' home..."
"Hey...he didn't run to Yingzhou, did he?"
"Don't be joking. Just listen to the rumors and don't take them seriously... But our Fengliang County has been isolated recently. The Marquis of Han and the Marquis of Xiang have formed an alliance, but..."
A team of carriages and horses passed by on the street and turned the corner. The wheels bumped and swayed on a raised brick. The lights on the tables in the car swayed, causing the young man who was reading the information to frown and pay attention.
to reality.
The low-key black curtain blocked the scene inside and outside, but it could not block the sound. Many of the comments coming from outside the car curtain were vulgar and unpleasant. The young man frowned deeper: "What is this brother... doing..."
Knocking on the window twice, a servant reported: "Your Majesty, the Prince of Qing County has arrived."
"Let me know."
There were some whispers outside the car curtain, and footsteps hurriedly entered. After a while, the royal door of the palace opened with a creak, and the motorcade rumbled in...
Everything was very low-key, the people in the car did not even appear in public, and the visit will not be recorded in any official history.
Not long after, Prince Qing hurriedly entered the main hall and saw the familiar and long-lost generous back of this man. His expression became a little subtle: "Brother Wang...why are you here suddenly?"
"Are you worried about a private visit?" Prince Xin turned around, looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "I have already reported to the palace. The current situation is special. I am here to talk to you, brother."
There were no servants in the hall. Prince Qing poured the tea himself. After the host and guest sat down separately, he asked eagerly: "Brother, do you want to attack central Hunan...or northern Hunan, or Yingzhou?"
"you……"
Prince Xin thought about his words, picked the tea leaves with the lid of the teacup, and sighed: "You should know...this is impossible."
After hearing this, Prince Qing's face darkened and he said in a low voice: "Why are you looking for me? Are you kidding me? The prince of my county is very ridiculous. He has lost our royal family."
"Let's go to the East China Sea."
"...face...what did you say?" Prince Qing raised his head in confusion, and the mist obscured each other's sight, as if the words just now were just an auditory hallucination.
Prince Xin repeats calmly: "Go to Dongzhou to open up. I will support you to get started as soon as possible. Once you have established a foothold, the court's assistance to you will not stop... To be honest, I originally planned to go by myself, but now the states
The situation of the series connection is complicated and there is no way to escape... But the same goes for Ye Qing. Once he leaves, I will take advantage of him. He doesn't dare to take this risk. I can help you hold him back here... You don't have to be afraid.
he."
"Am I afraid of him?" Prince Qing snorted, but he quickly thought about it. Such a sudden request caught him off guard and made him a little suspicious: "I also have a foundation, how can I abandon Xiangzhou... This suggestion is your own, brother."
What do you mean, or what does your father mean?"
"Are you afraid that I will cheat you?" Prince Xin was a little funny, and Yu Jian said bluntly: "Xiangzhou, you only have one county left, what else do you have to be afraid of... I can even tolerate people with foreign surnames like Yu Fan.
, are you still coveting this bit of territory for your own family?"
This was true, but Prince Qing was still a little confused and frowned: "Then why don't you tease Yu Fan over?"
"Don't be ridiculous...Brother, can we let people do this development lightly?"
Prince Xin didn't have much emotion and said patiently: "To be honest, even if the peace negotiation was successful, the imperial court was going to send clan members to restrain the other side and use the long river waterway to restrict the other party... Who would really let Ye Qing succeed in pioneering?"
"Now that the peace talks are in a stalemate, this is even more important. You don't have to worry too much. The real decision-makers are the prime ministers of the two governments, the emperor. I am just a suggestion authority."
