From his point of view, Qian Zhide undoubtedly had good reasons for abandoning Caoguan, where he could set up an array at any time, and took the initiative to attack at night... Bai Yousi only felt that if he continued to kill like this, he would not be able to break through this army array in ten and a half days.
, his family naturally fell into a desperate situation, and it was simply a situation of certain death.
But that's really comparing yourself to a million-strong army.
From Qian Zhide's point of view, is this a situation where he was conquered by the Wei Dynasty and arrived at the gate of the capital, and then it was a matter of life and death for the country, but it was a situation where life and death was ignored for him?
of course not.
Although Bai Yousi is strong, Qian Zhide also has wings to support him and is not afraid that the other party will easily destroy his life.
What he can't bear now is for Bai Yousi to see through his falsehood and true nature, and then rely on his personal cultivation to kill him as unscrupulously as he did today, to kill his elite subordinates, the cultivators and officers of Dadong Shengguo.
The seeds are so easy to remove.
On the other hand, once the raid is successful, Bai Yousi cannot be killed, and they can only break through the small camp at night and then get involved in the opponent's main camp... This kind of team, which is not even a mob, will disperse in a hurry.
By then, the White Snake's return to the west will have no basis, and there will be no reason to target Caoguan, and these young men can continue to stay in Dadong Shengguo.
Of course, due to some reasons, Qian Zhide did hesitate for a while about the night attack, but he did not hesitate for long.
Qian Zhide has been guarding this gate for decades. From the very beginning, he was an ordinary and unknown low-level ordinary guard, and now he has become famous all over the world. Even the king of the country respects him. He relies on his firm mind and courage to act.
Dare to do it, how can you be restrained by some big governor and a little lady?!
But again, once he came out, Bai Yousi also had a chance to win.
Kill this official, break the grass pass, and then leave!
How can there be any perfect truth in the world?
"Old General Qian!" Bai Yousi transformed into a mighty phoenix, pounced on his face, and immediately flew into the sky, shouting in the sky under the light of the crescent moon. "I heard that you have been in Caoguan for decades, and your reputation has spread throughout the world.
So much so that he is known as the God of Grass, claiming that this pass is like the weeds of the Eastern Yi, which are endlessly burned by the fire of war and regenerated by the spring breeze, and even cut off the head and limbs and can be resurrected. But I don’t believe it now, can the beheaded people in the day be resurrected?!"
Qian Zhide was shocked and angry... What was surprising was that the other party jumped out so quickly and was full of fighting spirit, obviously not frightened by the surprise attack; what was angry was that the other party was so provocative and still killed and wounded the soldiers he cared about most.
How can I endure being a raft?
But Qian Zhide still held back.
Just as he held it back during the day... The reason was very simple. After forcing himself to calm down, Qian Zhide realized that the other party reacted so quickly just because the other party was a top player, a master of geniuses, but he couldn't.
To say that one's own raid was discovered was not to say that the entire camp was prepared!
On the contrary, the white lady's provocation was more like pretending to be calm and bluffing.
If you are frightened by her, you will fall into the trap and let the troops in the small camp be tidied up, or wait for reinforcements from the big camp behind.
The top priority is to attack the stronghold with an entire army!
As soon as he thought of this, Qian Zhide immediately turned around and reiterated his military order to his deputy general: "Don't worry about her. The three of you are the vanguard. I will be one of them. We will press them together until we reach the rear of the stronghold. We will win completely!"
As of now, the zhenqi condensed on the top of his head could not be seen clearly by others. Bai Yousi could see it clearly from a high position, but it exactly looked like an emerald green city gate tower. And the three lieutenants who stood out first did not know whether they were condensed pills or Chengdan pills.
, connected to the city tower, it turned into three protruding branches, covering all the core assault troops.
It is truly a city built on people and a wall built on people.
However, it is not a matter of blocking the city and defending it, but laying it out like a city or a wall.
The effect is also extremely obvious, it can be said that the people who are in charge are destroyed, and the temporary camp is simply uprooted.
When Bai Yousi saw this, he laughed ferociously, and suddenly turned over and threw himself down. However, he no longer took out the money to pay for virtue, but went directly towards the light spot on the left side of the three-branched wall. The long sword went first, and his whole body followed straight up, glowing.
The true energy is connected as if it were one body. It looks like a huge sword, piercing like a falling star.
Instead, the original Wei Feng was taken into the body.
For masters of Ningdan and above, night is so different from day... When the deputy general saw Bai Yousi coming to attack him, he raised his hand to resist early, danced his spear, and with the help of the military formation, it seemed as if a tree more than ten feet tall appeared out of thin air.
Green trees stand above me.
Unexpectedly, when the golden sword stabbed down, it was like fire attacking the grass, like light turning into snow. The green trees scattered on the spot, and the deputy general was also bullied by the white lady. He was horrified for a moment.
Only Bai Yousi couldn't break through the shackles of his cultivation at this time. His sword broke through the green tree and he was already exhausted. But when he saw the opponent's fear, he knew there was still a chance. But as soon as he landed, he was ready to swing the sword again.
Try to take the opportunity to kill this person.
However, with Qian Zhide right behind her, how could she be allowed to easily break through her inner alchemy and kill her most trusted general?
The man shouted angrily, brandished his long sword, and everyone stepped forward with the sword. First, a strong wind blew up. The wind was mixed with some objects and water vapor. Ordinary soldiers could not bear it. Even if they were far apart, many people were instantly alarmed.
Look here.
Bai Yousi was originally leaning sideways to face the wind, but suddenly turned around and looked back, as if he was startled by the wind.
After the wind passed, the true energy came. Qian Zhide, who was pressing forward, happened to see the other person's face under the faint moonlight, but he was frightened for a moment... Without him, Bai Yousi, who had been smiling ferociously before, was now expressionless.
The thick glowing Qi that had turned into a majestic phoenix was gone at this time, and even the protective Qi on the body surface was gone. Only the eyes were filled with light, and then the completely solidified golden glowing Qi stopped.
The live ones escape from the corners of the eyes.
It really looks like a puppet but there is a god, it seems that the god is still real.
Even if you don't know the basics of this situation, people with a little common sense can still see the strangeness. Qian Zhide was also panicked and naturally cried secretly.
Sure enough, Bai Yousi didn't turn around to face the wind, this Qi and Qian Zhide. He brushed the Changsheng Qi that had rubbed his face, and continued to turn his body. The angle of turning was not flat and circular, but diagonal.
Laterally, as the person flipped in the air, the sword in his hand followed the owner's torso, limbs, and sleeves, drawing a circle diagonally in mid-air.
Specifically, he drew a circle in the air with the body of the deputy general.
The moment the circle was completed, the lieutenant's entire body was split diagonally into two sections from the shoulders to the waist. The entire body seemed to be easily cut through silk, with only the plasma slightly adhering between the two.
, like a thread breaking.
And then, before falling to the ground, the two sections of the corpse were blown up by the immortal energy from behind like rags and fell into the air.
Bai Yousi was also hit by the true energy. Her whole body was also rolled up by the true energy. She was obviously out of control. However, she barely used the true energy to immobilize herself in mid-air. Then she turned back to look at Qian Zhide. She was still the same as before.
He looked horrifying, with obvious blood stains on his body and corners of his mouth.
There were splashes on his body, and the corner of his mouth was caused by internal injuries and blood vomiting caused by being hit by the true energy.
However, despite the unexpected success, Qian Zhide was actually heartbroken... He was not feeling pity for a lieutenant, or it was not entirely because of the death of his own lieutenant. He had been guarding the gate for so many years and encountered so many famous generals.
He was a hero, and many of his officers and soldiers had died. Of course he would feel sorry for him, but he would never be shaken or even lose his composure because of these things.
There is essentially only one reason for Qian Zhide's current vacillation, and that is that the determination and state displayed by Bai Yousi at this time have exceeded his imagination.
He doesn't know what the other person can do or what he will do.
The situation is likely to get completely out of control in a very short period of time and turn into a situation that he can hardly imagine.
This is indeed the case.
Bai Yousi only glanced at Qian Zhide in the air, then dived again, heading towards the right side of the military formation.
Qian Zhide was frightened and hurriedly caught up, but he was still one step behind. He tried his best to strike, but he couldn't stop the opponent from killing him again... After two more attempts, Bai Yousi killed the three arrowheads, and the entire army was also destroyed.
In an instant, he shrank to Qian Zhide's side.
At this time, Qian Zhide completely regretted going out to attack at night.
But Bai Yousi still didn't stop, but continued to pull out the targeted points around Qian Zhide, killing three Ningdan, and then went to kill Qijing again, this time with one sword. Qian Zhide wanted to do it again.
It would be difficult to take the opportunity to hurt her... After killing more than a dozen people in a row, Qian Zhide was in despair. Suddenly, fire broke out behind both sides of the small camp, and then there were shouts of killing. He looked at two people.
Soldiers and horses rushed from the fields on the left and right to outflank him, and there were even more obvious spots of light passing by. There were many masters among them.
Qian Zhide finally fell into an ice cave - his last hope was gone.
Can I withdraw at this time?
To fight?
Do you want to fight hard?
Are you still trying to escape back to Guan?
The old general did not hesitate. At this point, he had no choice but to retreat and fight. And only by fighting desperately could he have a chance to survive and save as many subordinates as possible.
What I was thinking in my heart, but for a moment, it seemed to be half a beat too late. Just when I was about to find the enemy, I first noticed a strong wind coming from the side. I quickly dodged, only to see a cold light when I turned my face.
Watching himself fly past, when he came back to his senses, he realized that his cheek was punctured and bleeding. He looked where the cold light went again, and became more and more frightened - it turned out that the white lady had been covered in blood until now, and now she was standing in front of her.
In front of him, his face was still expressionless, but his murderous intent could not be suppressed.
Qian Zhide's eyes turned from the other person's expressionless face to the other person's body covered in blood, and finally fell on the long sword that didn't seem to have any vitality attached to it. He couldn't help but touch his cheek that had just been pierced.
He took a sip of his own blood, then looked complicated and shook his head slowly:
"White Snake, can this old face of mine still have some effect when used as a whetstone?"
Bai Yousi remained expressionless, but finally spoke slowly: "Thanks to Old General Qian's kindness, but if the old general doesn't die, how can we talk about hard work?"
After saying that, he didn't stir up his energy or jump up. He just walked towards him with his sword drawn and hurriedly walked towards him.
Qian Zhide exhaled, raised the sword given by the king, and held it flat against his side. With this movement, the broken zhenqi tower in front of him was instantly repaired and solidified a lot.
At this time, Bai Yousi also forced himself in front of the seemingly huge zhenqi tower. His long sword flew up, like cutting wood and bamboo, peeling off the opponent's inner alchemy layer by layer.
Qian Zhide narrowed his eyes slightly, suddenly jumped up and drew his sword, using up all his strength and energy, he slashed towards the opponent's shoulder and neck.
The sword was swung horizontally, and the true energy was not huge, but layered on top of it, like dragon scales, and there was a faint dragon's roar.
Bai Yousi didn't even raise his head, he just accelerated violently, jumped two feet to pass the tip of the knife, then raised his sword to hold the blade, turned his body, turned the tip of the sword, pressed it, swung it, and then swung the blade.
Open it, and then stab it back with your hand.
Just stab it into the opponent's chest.
This scene is like a person without cultivation relying on strength and skill to fight, but in fact, everything happened in the Zhenqi tower of Qianzhi De Neidan.
Even Qian Zhide's blade had strange phenomena.
But Bai Yousi broke it down step by step without any fancy.
Qian Zhide looked at the long sword on his chest, pressed the wound, looked at the collapsing zhenqi gate tower around him and couldn't help but ask the person in front of him: "What were you doing when you were dancing with the sword in my gate tower just now?"
Feel?"
"It's like being in water." Bai Yousi answered calmly.
"I see, that's it, I can't do it." Qian Zhide nodded. The energy accumulated in his chest seemed to be dissipating, and he wanted to touch the sword body at the wound with one hand.
That is to say, when his left hand touched the blade of the sword, the man's eyes suddenly widened in anger, and his whole body was full of vitality. While still holding the sword, his right hand exerted force again and stabbed the opponent's ribs.
Bai Yousi held the sword and wanted to retreat, but unexpectedly Qian Zhide grabbed the blade of the sword. It was held back for a moment, and the opponent's sword penetrated the inside of his left arm, straight to the bone.
When Bai Sanniang saw this, she was furious. Instead of retreating, she advanced. She raised her injured left hand and clamped the opponent's right arm. She stabbed the opponent's chest with the long sword in her right hand, and then stirred up the opponent with all her strength.
Qian Zhide couldn't bear it anymore and stumbled back to sit on the ground. Although he covered the wound with his palms, he still couldn't stop the immortality energy from his body from pouring out crazily. The energy was so strong that the weeds around his body actually grew wildly at night.
Qian Zhide's face was pale, but he seemed relieved when he saw this scene: "I don't think that even though I die, my remaining energy will still be able to fertilize the grass of Dongshengguo. What's the pity?"
After saying that, he simply let go of his palm and allowed the true energy to leak out.
Bai Yousi didn't care about this at all, he just stepped forward and killed him with one sword, and beheaded him with one sword.
Turning around, it changed back to its original vivid face, the body-protecting Qi also returned, and the long sword was re-wrapped in the glow. When it flew again, it showed the majestic phoenix again, moving horizontally and vertically.
On the battlefield where the overall situation has been decided.
However, I don't know if it was an illusion, but the mighty phoenix seemed to have grown a lot bigger.
In this way, when daybreak came, Caoguan was also broken.
At the same time, when the troops marching westward heard that Bai Sanniang had killed the master, they naturally cheered up, while the escapees and prisoners accompanying them were purged.
Because after this night, everyone no longer doubted that the white lady could bring them back to the Central Plains. At least from the perspective of force, as long as the governor did not regret, who could be this powerful?!
"Is that what they said?" At the west exit of Caoguan Pass, Bai Yousi, who had a white cloth wrapped around his arm, turned around, half-smiling.
"Not only what he said, but also what he thought. That's what I thought." Wang Zhen held his head high, but felt a little regretful. "I really didn't expect that before the two-wing attack arrived, Mr. Bai, you would
Qian Zhide has been killed... Mr. Bai, it was so easy for you to kill Ningdan when you were condensing the pills. Now that you have become a master, you can kill the grandmaster so easily. You even killed all three lieutenants without leaving any of us...
…Are these three lieutenants the guards guarding the three directions of Caoguan?"
"It must be so." Bai Yousi answered calmly, but then looked to the west and shook his head. "It must be so!"
"It must be so. Why does Mr. Bai shake his head?" Wang Zhen seemed to notice something.
"It must be so. You are right about the three lieutenants. You are shaking your head because how could it be so easy to kill the grandmaster?" Bai Yousi reminded softly. "He suffered such injuries after killing a Qian Zhide, or his own family
Once this pass has been exposed, we must be more cautious and strike first, and we can’t cover it up with the help of troops.”
Wang Zhen suddenly understood and no longer cared about the other party's weirdness: "Yes, if we go further west, there will be layers of defenses set up by the Dongyi people against the Wei Dynasty. Although they are facing the west, they are still obstacles; kill them.
Qian Zhide doesn’t even know the Dongyi people’s attitude... Such a situation is just like the poor invaders entering an alley, so we can’t think about whether the alley is open or not, and everything has to be thrown out.”
This analogy suited Wang Zhen very well, and Bai Yousi just nodded this time, so it didn't seem weird anymore.
Just after Bai Yousi showed off his power and killed the grandmaster, a warm south wind in summer and autumn set off again. They rolled in from south to north, from east to west, and were unstoppable. Wherever they passed, the fields were all over.
All golden.
But there is no doubt that we have entered the autumn harvest season.
Strange to say, when the troubled times just started a few years ago, there were frequent small-scale natural disasters, which caused a lot of suffering for everyone, including the gang, and even became the cause of the previous round of huge turmoil. At that time, people with insight
I feel that if things continue like this, coupled with the turmoil in the world and constant military disasters in the next few years, it will inevitably lead to a real famine that is difficult to restore and unbearable for everyone.
However, thanks to various favorable factors, such as the warehouses of the Wei Dynasty being widely and timely released, for example, almost all the major forces have maintained some semblance of harmony after Midsummer, and for example, several major forces are skilled in
Taking over and using the local government, in short, with this time the whole country is golden, it seems to be continued.
During the horse fight, across thousands of miles of fertile fields, the farmers and women were busy again. When they saw the group of knights, they just gave way slightly in the road, and there was even a vague feeling of a peaceful and prosperous age.
"It's better to fight with moderation." On the official road outside Baima City, Shan Tonghai gave his opinion as he walked forward. "Qiao County will not be able to harvest this year, and I heard that Huainan will not be able to do it either..."
"The harvests in Wuyang County and Ji County are not good either," Zhang Xing said on the yellow horse. "A lot of miscellaneous grains were replanted in late spring, but they are still not as good as serious beans and millet."
Shan Tonghai nodded, paused and said: "When winter comes, I will try my best to send some new grains from Jiyin to Qiaojun. If they eat all the old grains that have been broken into dregs, the morale of the army and the people will be depressed..."
"I think it's feasible. Just discuss it with Manager Chen." Zhang Xing obviously agreed.
Unexpectedly, Shan Tonghai frowned when he heard this: "Chief Zhang, I wanted to ask before, is it Mr. Chen who is in charge of everything? It is these clerks, staff officers and preparation generals, if it weren't for Li Shu's
I'm afraid everything has left you and gone directly to Yecheng, right? Will it also go to Mr. Chen?"
This was a public complaint, and following behind were Yu Changnan and Feng Chang who were also mentioned. One was expressionless, the other was thoughtful.
"It should be like this." Zhang Xingze was obviously more relaxed. "Not to mention other things, some systems in the Wei Dynasty are still good. The Nanya system is still good. Manager Chen should work harder."
"Then what does your chief do?"
"There's still a lot I can do."
"I'd like to hear the details." Baima City is right in front of him, but Shan Tonghai is still chasing after him. "You can't just keep wandering around the countryside, right?"
"It definitely can't always be like this, although it's important to see more of the field villages and communities." Zhang Xingyi answered. "We should also see the markets, towns, and government and military camps... Seeing these things is not to do big things, but to do something important.
Discover problems and then solve them, just like you used to stay in the military camp, and even earlier, you ate and lived with your brothers on the road. But as the chief, you should have more places to stay."
Shan Tonghai was suddenly enlightened, truly enlightened.
"There are many other things." Zhang Xing continued to introduce. "For example, the personnel arrangements between the Daxingtai and the core members of the local Xingtai, such as the decision-making of military operations and diplomatic actions, and the mediation between Xingtai and Xingtai.
Conflicts and personal grudges between leaders inevitably lead to the need to continue to organize the troops and refine their combat capabilities..."
"If it can be done like this, it will certainly work." Shan Tonghai suddenly reined in his horse, as if he didn't want the people greeting him in front of the city gate to hear the following conversation. "But, if Mr. Chen...I am using an analogy, such as Mr. Chen
This kind of person who directly handles specific matters...is also responsible for middle and lower-level personnel, right?"
"right."
"Then what if he did it wantonly and deceived the superiors and concealed it from the inferiors?" Shan Tonghai asked seriously.
Many people's hearts skipped a beat. Even Feng Chang secretly looked at Zhang Xing's profile. But to his disappointment, Chief Zhang showed no anger or other emotions at all. He just stopped his horse and explained patiently:
"So we have to go to the villages, towns, and military barracks offices in person.
"What you can see is always incomplete." Shan Tonghai seemed to be arguing, but also seemed to really want to know the solution.
"Then let me fill in a form." Zhang Xing suddenly laughed.
"If you want to read the form, it's really endless." Shan Tonghai frowned more and more. He was actually not unfamiliar with forms.
"Look at the specific table." Zhang Xing blurted out. "The first is the population. How many people are there? How many household registrations are there? How many strong men can join the army? How many strong women can work at home to run the family business? How many old and weak people can build buildings?
How many young men are there, how many cultivators there are, and what level of cultivation there is; then there are the acres, where is the narrow township and where is the wide township, where the land is granted properly and where it is improper, whether there is overpayment or underpayment; and the army
The quantity... You are an expert on this; the number of officials and their levels; there are also finances, taxes, land and taxes, how much of the people who eat the public food occupy, how much grain, how much land, and where the rest is stored; and cattle, horses and livestock
The status and quantity of iron armaments... Master these dozen or so tables, check the authenticity from time to time, check them, and make sure everything is correct."
Shan Tonghai was slightly dazed, as if he had realized something again, but also seemed a little confused.
Zhang Xing remained patient and waited there immediately.
After a while, Shan Tonghai seemed to realize that it was difficult to digest these things, so he pressed them down and continued to ask: "What if Manager Chen is domineering and authoritarian?"
Zhang Xing still had no unnecessary expression and just continued to explain: "As Manager Chen, what does he have to do to be considered authoritarian? After thinking about it, it is nothing more than starting a war and sending troops? But don't talk about him, it is me who decides to send troops.
Don't you want to tell you first and then notify the battalions? In fact, when I return to Hebei this time, I have decided to take the opportunity to establish a tiger talisman system. Any deployment of a team of soldiers must be verified by the tiger talisman dissection..."
Shan Tonghai finally became anxious: "If this is the case and the enemy attacks, how should we respond?"
Zhang Xing smiled and said nothing.
However, Feng Chang waited for a long time and twisted his beard to explain: "Single leader overthinks it. If you want to dispatch the leader, naturally it should be General Manager Xu or the chief himself to issue the talisman; but if it is just a team of soldiers,
The dispatch of a battalion of generals is enough; the dispatch of a battalion of soldiers and horses may be more complicated. Everyone from the chief to the chief, including the leader and the generals led by specific big leaders, should be able to dispatch."
Shan Tonghai knew he was making a joke after listening to it halfway, and nodded repeatedly: "It's good to have a system... but the army is locked up everywhere, how about daily use?"
"The patrol camp, military law camp, and government officials are not among them." Zhang Xing said casually.
Shan Tonghai thought for a while and nodded again and again.
At this time, Qin Bao, who had been standing in front of the city before, saw Zhang Xing and his entourage stuck hundreds of steps outside the door without moving. Was he worried about Zhang Xing's safety, so he rode up to meet them in person just in case.
As soon as he made such a move, Zhou Weishi, the prefect of Dongjun, and others who were waiting outside the city also followed him.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Xing put away the answer to Domineering's question, reined in his horse and stepped forward. Of course, Shan Tonghai also knew that there were some key points in Baima City, so he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly caught up with the accompanying leaders.
They all quickly followed.
There were too many people, and a few clerks were far behind. Feng Chang couldn't hold it back for a moment, turning to Yu Changnan and smiling: "Yu She...Yu Clerk, did you see that Shan Longtou also turned against Manager Chen, but unexpectedly?
The chief refuses to take hard or soft advice... Although Mr. Chen has taken the blame for the chief, it is really worth it!"
Yu Changnan slowly shook his head: "I only saw the chief seriously teaching Shan Longtou how to govern the country."
Feng Chang smiled and said no more.
Immediately, everyone entered Baima City and then gathered at the county government office.
Chief Zhang was straightforward as always. After sitting down, he made assignments. He said that after a day's rest, Yu Changnan and Feng Chang would lead the team across the river to Yecheng to find Chen Bin for a report; and that the members of Jiyin Xingtai, including Shan Tonghai, should be on the spot.
Disband and go about the autumn harvest on your own; then declare that you will stay in Baima for a few days, and then return to Yecheng after the autumn harvest...or possibly go to Jibei or Dengzhou.
That's right, Zhang Xing explained the news of Bai Yousi's return to the west to everyone.
At least according to the last letter, she should be on her way to the west... and according to the time, if her return to the west goes smoothly, she should be able to arrive before winter.
Therefore, he not only had to organize and dispatch a team to respond, but also had to do possible resettlement work in Dengzhou.
Bai Yousi is the general manager of Dengzhou, and there are five other battalions, several leaders, and a fleet involved in Dongyi this time. Whether they are public or private, there is no reason to object.
Things settled naturally.
Li Shu was not mentioned during the whole process, even though a reward of thirty taels of silver had been placed all over Baima City.
After the show ended, everyone went to rest and get busy. Among them, Shan Tonghai immediately asked several leaders to lead the way and went to personally visit several elders in the city, which was naturally what the title meant.
Zhang Xing did not rush to visit the elders. On the contrary, he encouraged others to do unfilial acts.
"You two go to Yecheng and let Auntie stay here." Zhang Xing suggested, sitting under the shade of a tree in the small courtyard, holding what might be the last bowl of sour plum soup this year.
"What's the point of not caring for your mother yourself?" Qin Bao was obviously uneasy.
"Of course." Zhang Xing began... to persuade. "Think about it, if your mother followed you to Yecheng, would you be frightened every time you sent out troops?"
Qin Bao swallowed immediately.
It was not that he was frightened by these words, but that he suddenly realized that the outcome of this conversation had already been decided... This third brother of his could always make himself willing to adopt his plan... This kind of thing was not the first
He came back, but his sudden return inevitably caught him off guard.
"And she stays here, living with people like Mrs. Ding and Mr. Huo, but she has no worries... Think about it, it's hard to know yourself in life. They all have the same origin. They were left behind by the officials of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, and they are here again.
Wei Dawei has suffered a lot in the past few decades and is of the same age. How can he not be happy and insist on taking her to Hebei to suffer?" Zhang San lived up to Qin Er's expectations. "Not to mention, when we get to Hebei, besides worrying about you,
Besides, there is another big trouble, that is your uncle’s family..."
Qin Bao was even more speechless.
"Luo Shu's actions do not mean that it is impossible to surrender and then become a leader and live in peace, but the possibility of dying a good death is greater." Zhang Xing took a sip of sour plum soup and finally gave an irrefutable reason. "Let's take a moment.
After resting, the next thing to do is to sweep Hebei. I guess your uncle will get involved when we start with Xue Changxiong..."
Qin Bao could only nod.
At that moment, the door curtain of the kitchen next to her was opened, and Yueniang, who was already dressed as a young woman, rushed out, placed a bowl of fried dough in front of Zhang Xing, and then rushed back without saying a word.
Zhang Xing put down his last cup of sour plum soup this year and ate his latest bowl of fried dough.
Qin Bao was beside him and didn't say a word.
This day should have passed by so easily, but in the evening, two pieces of news suddenly came from behind:
The first news was nothing serious. It was that in Dongdu, with the official return of Yu Jiuluo, Sima Zheng, who had been planning for a long time, finally proclaimed the new emperor of Wei.
No one cares about his name. They only know that he is a grandson of Cao Che.
Correspondingly, Sima Zheng formally inherited Duke Rui, added the title of Marshal, established Daxingtai, and served as governor of the Eastern Capital, Kinki, and the military administration of thirteen counties in the Central Plains.
I finally got that legitimate brand.
In addition, it is said that Zhang Xing was made King of Qi, with the governorship of twenty-seven counties in the east, Huaibei, and Huainan. Bai Hengqiu was made king of England, with the governorship of thirty-six counties in Jin, Guanzhong, and Hebei.
Xiao Hui became the king of Liang and the governor of Bashu and the thirty-one counties of Jingxiang.
This is just a disgusting political performance.
And another thing, although not so unexpected, can be regarded as a serious matter - Bai Hengqiu endured it for most of the summer, just when everyone thought that he was short of food and couldn't do it under the noses of the Wu tribe.
When he was transporting grain from Jin and preparing to start the war again after autumn, just before the autumn harvest in Guanzhong, he suddenly sent out troops.
The latest news is that a war broke out between the two sides in Weibei, and the status of the war is unknown.
Everything was a matter of course, Zhang Xing didn't care at all, he could only say that he knew about it, but he also knew that these two things would still be very shocking to ordinary people.
However, even he would not have thought that these two incidents would have some kind of chemical reaction with the completed Li Shu incident, which would further make the atmosphere within the gang more subtle.
But let's not mention these for now. The next day, Zhang Xinghun, who had eaten and drank enough, didn't care. He just waited here with peace of mind, preparing to survive the most troublesome days of the autumn harvest, so as not to cause trouble up and down.
As a result, after staying for two days, Yu Changnan and others crossed the river early, only to find that Dan Tonghai had also stayed in Baima... Considering that this was their direct territory, it was hard to say anything.
Only he clearly noticed that there were more and more messengers from Henan and Hebei in the past few days, and many of them came to see him, but most of them expressed their loyalty, as if they had just finished digesting the matter about Li Shu.
Among them, the only one that has some practical significance is that Jia Wugen took the initiative to request to be transferred to another place on the grounds that it was inappropriate for father and son to command the army together.
Zhang Liang was in the south, so he couldn't ask, and it seemed there was no need to ask.
A few days later, it was clear that the busiest autumn harvest line had crossed the river, so Zhang Xing decided to leave for Yecheng, where he had not settled much yet.
Then, Shan Tonghai, who was waiting here, offered to accompany him.
At this time, Zhang Xing has noticed the strangeness in the other party's eyes... It seems that there is some expectation, but some unwillingness to show it... At this time, Zhang San has guessed something, but it is already difficult to stop it at this time, so it is better to face it face to face
Let’s do some analysis later.
Therefore, Zhang Xing also changed his plan to take Yueniang with him. He only took Qin Bao and a few cavalry with Shan Tonghai to cross the river lightly, and quickly arrived at Yecheng. Then he was surprised to find that he was not caught off guard... In fact,
Not only Chen Bin, Xu Shiying, Wang Shuyong, and everyone from Daxingtai to Daxingtai, but also the local leaders of the Xingtai led by Wei Xuanding, Li Ding, Dou Lide, and Chai Xiaohe also arrived.
Even King Xiongtian and Wu Dalang actually crossed the river from Xingyang and arrived first.
A group of people came to meet them under the shed in the south of Yecheng. There were also many people standing in the newly harvested farmland, including Niuda who was farthest away, Cheng Zhili and Xiao Zhou who was recovering from his injuries.
Zhang Xing didn't have any extra thoughts at this time - whether it was to persuade him to move in or to encircle and kill him, he was right in front of him.
"What are you going to do?" At this time, it seems inappropriate to pretend to be confused, so Zhang Xing simply pointed it out. "Do you really want me to be rewarded by Sima Zheng and do nothing to become the King of Qi?"
The eldest Wei Xuanding had put on a new suit today. Hearing this, he stepped forward, cupped his hands and smiled slightly: "We know that the chief doesn't care about these false names, but now that Li Shu, the thief, has left, the gang should unite as one, so as not to
The other princes thought we were in trouble."
Zhang Xing waved his hand to refute.
Chen Bin, who was full of energy, also stepped forward and handed over: "Chief, we have always known your ambitions, and we have no intention of letting you call yourself a loner, but at least you have to show your face and establish a name and system, so as to communicate with you.
If we fight against each other in Kansai and Dongdu, we will not fall behind."
Zhang Xing calmed down a little this time and asked seriously: "What are you going to do?"
"First, establish a system, and all the leaders, big leaders, and leading family members will live in Yecheng." Dou Lide stepped forward, raised his hands, and spoke.
He certainly doesn't care about this.
And this suggestion is indeed effective.
Zhang Xing thought for a while and said seriously: "It's feasible, but you shouldn't be too hasty and wait until the end of the year to do it."
Seeing Zhang Xing nodding, many people thought that things were going to continue like this, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
So Li Dingran also stepped forward and pretended to hand him over. Whether it was an illusion or not, Zhang Xing always felt that the smile in the corner of his eyes was mocking: "Determine the color and grade of the uniform."
"There's no need for that." Zhang Xing immediately waved his hand to stop him. "We can design clothes for the leading sergeants and non-commissioned officers according to their grades, but there is no need to formulate uniform colors for all the people. Everyone can wear purple and red after taking off their official uniforms and going on vacation.
You are not allowed to imitate official uniforms, seals and ribbons."
"Chief Zhang is right." Of course Li Zhizhi didn't argue in public, he just nodded and put down his hands, attracting many people to look at him.
"In any case, the chief must do the last thing." Chen Bin saw this and spoke quickly.
"What?" Zhang Xing couldn't help but be curious. He wasn't pretending, he was really curious.
Because it is difficult for him to imagine how to decide on a name without being called a loner?
"It's very simple." Chen Bin turned sideways and pointed in a certain direction in Yecheng behind him. "Chief, please move into the Yecheng Palace."
"Oh!" Zhang Xing was stunned, and then nodded immediately. "Okay."
Except for newcomers like Feng Chang, the simplicity of this reply surprised everyone.
There is no way. For a long time, Zhang Xing has maintained a seemingly open-minded, but actually resistant attitude towards this matter, otherwise he would have definitely been persuaded to move in today.
And for such an act with obvious political implications, he agreed so easily, which even made some people a little disappointed...but it was difficult to say anything.
In fact, the disappointed people, including Shan Tonghai and Li Ding, quickly convinced themselves in their hearts... This was necessary sooner or later.
But the next moment, Zhang Xing put his hands behind his hands and looked at the inner city, which still looked majestic despite the outer city wall, and asked directly: "Is this palace city quite big? How does the Five Capital System compare with the Jiangdu Palace City?"
"Almost." Chen Bin blurted out.
"Then I'm relieved." Zhang Xing nodded and pointed to everyone present. "Let's all move in... The entire Daxingtai and Yecheng Xingtai have moved in, so we can create a name and appearance.
Is that so? The family members of the leader from out of town are here, and they can all live in them. At least they are safe and secure... How about that?"
There was silence all around.
After a few breaths, Qin Bao suddenly couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing.
