Chapter 83 Everyone has something to gain (thank you Canmo Niyu for the 5000 reward)
Of course, Huang Xiaoshi was only known as a good member of the Shennong Baicao Sect, but Huang Xiaoshi actually squeezed into the Tianlong Sect, which was a surprise to Bai Jiuchi.
From a certain perspective, Tianlong Sect is more important than Shuzhong.
Let’s start with the big things.
In fact, the development of major events and sects are the same and cannot be separated from three points: people, wealth, and land.
Let’s talk about people first.
In Bai Jiuchi's "Longzhong Pair", he divided the forces used in the rebellion into the first wave of combat forces and follow-up troops.
The follow-up soldiers have been mentioned before, and this also includes the on-the-spot recruitment of Yunnan, Guizhou and the territories where King Cheng is located.
The follow-up soldiers are far away. The first important thing is that in the event of an attack, there must be the first wave of soldiers who can be used and fight.
The sources of these forces are divided into several parts.
The first part is the existing military strength.
For example, the group of people from the imperial court who went south to Jiaozhi to quell the rebellion happened to be King Cheng's people.
The people who started the rebellion in Jiaozhi happened to be King Cheng's people.
Do you think this happened by coincidence?
unfortunately.
This is all something Bai Jiuchi has spent several years planning and arranging.
The rebellion in Jiaozhi was inevitable, and it was inevitable that the imperial court would send troops to quell the rebellion. When the imperial court sent out troops, it was also inevitable that it would send out the army secretly controlled by King Cheng.
For Bai Jiuchi, this is a matter of course, and there is nothing surprising.
The second part of the existing force is the naval force.
Many people may think that the Central Plains is a continental country and the navy cannot play a big role.
This is because they do not understand some of the situation in this DPRK.
The current situation is that there is more rice in the south and less wheat in the north.
Every year, a large amount of rice from the south needs to be transported to the north, so as to ensure the normal food supply in the important areas of the capital.
Note that this is still a normal food supply.
Most of the grain transportation routes are by water transport, a small part are by sea transport, and a very small part are by land transport.
When it comes to water transportation, many people think of the phrase "one million water workers depend on their food and clothing", but they often don't think about why there are so many water workers.
That's because water transport throughput is huge.
Coincidentally, Hangzhou is the southernmost point of water transportation.
After King Cheng raised his army, the first thing he did was to go north along the canal and abolish the water transport first.
Coupled with the naval blockade of shipping, there will definitely be a famine in the north within half a year.
At that time, not to mention the instability of the people's hearts, even the morale of the military could not be maintained.
This part of the naval force was originally done by the Japanese.
However, under Bai Jiuchi's fierce opposition, King Cheng sent people to take the Haisha Gang under his command.
All the troops in the south can only be called positive.
The right way is the interdependence of right and wrong.
The third part of the force is Bai Jiuchi's carefully planned surprise troops.
This is the Tianlong Sect.
The Tianlong Sect was originally rooted in the Western Region, but in fact it has been spreading eastward and southward in recent years.
I won’t talk about going south, but let’s talk about the eastward expansion of the Tianlong Sect first.
Now the Tianlong Sect has expanded eastward to Ganzhou (near Zhangye, GS Province today) and occupied the Hexi Corridor.
Once King Cheng raises his troops, the Tianlong Sect can take the northern route (today's Inner Mongolia), bypass the hinterland of the Central Plains, and go straight to the capital.
Bai Jiuchi has already arranged the route to enter the pass from the north. The Great Wall Pass is just a door that opens with one push.
The Tianlong Sect has all the people, money, and land needed to raise an army. It has satisfied the three major conditions on its own.
The Tianlong Sect has done so many things, provided so much property, and killed so many people. The only thing King Cheng had to pay was that he promised to make the Tianlong Sect the state religion once he ascended to the throne.
It's that simple.
However, Bai Jiuchi still has doubts about the current head of the Tianlong Sect (he is not clear about these positions), the Dragon King.
After all, the court can also offer the price offered by Prince Cheng.
For example, when the Tianlong Sect's troops arrived in the capital, the emperor suddenly issued an edict, naming the Dragon King as the national preceptor and the Tianlong Sect as the state religion.
You said that the Tianlong Church would not turn its gun and just attack King Cheng directly.
You can figure it out with your toes.
Bai Jiuchi firmly believes in one sentence when it comes to foreign races: "If they are not of my race, their hearts must be different."
Therefore, the Tianlong Sect must be in the hands of its own people.
However, it was too troublesome to bribe the top leaders of the Tianlong Sect. Bai Jiuchi searched for a long time but could not find a breakthrough.
This really can't be blamed on him, the main reason is that the current senior leaders of Tianlong Sect are falling apart. They don't even understand it, and outsiders can't understand it.
At this time, Bai Jiuchi discovered that, hey, this Huang Xiaoshi had managed to get into the Tianlong Sect by relying on his own ability, and his position seemed to be quite high.
Who is Huang Xiaoshi? He is Li Huan, the crown prince's eldest son, and the great-nephew of King Cheng.
If this is not one of our own, there will be no one of our own in the world.
We must top up Huang Xiaoshi at all costs and let Huang Xiaoshi control the Tianlong Sect.
Unintentionally, Huang Xiaoshi became an important factor that could determine the success or failure of King Cheng's army.
This is also the reason why Xu Ziyi was present to listen when Huang Xiaoshi met with King Cheng.
It can be said that the moment Huang Xiaoshi was "appointed" as the crown prince, all the previous scripts were invalidated.
No one knows how this world will change, not even Huang Xiaoshi, the troublemaker, can control it.
Of course, the easiest way to "clear up the source" is to expose the news that Huang Xiaoshi is the fake prince.
But currently, Xu Ziyi seems to be enjoying it.
Anyone watching the fun doesn't think it's a big deal?
…
Huang Xiaoshi, who had always been obsessed with keeping the old plot unshakable, had no idea how big a ripple his saucy moves had caused.
At this time, Huang Xiaoshi was fighting back and forth with Weiming.
However, what is different from the initial fighting style is that Huang Xiaoshi is using Drunken Fist and Wei Ming is using Chicken Claw Kung Fu.
Like Huang Xiaoshi, Wei Ming, who studied hard and practiced day and night, also reached the fifth level of [Shadowless Xiaoyao Kung Fu], and he finally mastered the ability of [Imitation].
At the beginning, the two were cautious when sparring, especially Huang Xiaoshi, who was afraid of injuring Wei Ming with one move.
However, during the month they spent in Xiaoyao Valley, the two of them had a lot of exchanges with each other. In fact, they still had a general idea of their abilities.
After getting used to each other, the two of them moved faster and faster, showing their actual combat skills.
Only masters of their level dare to play like this and are not afraid of losing it.
After all, both Huang Xiaoshi and Wei Ming have very high resistance to beatings, so it's no problem to take one or two hits.
In fact, in modern combat sports, athletes’ combat training is also done in this way.
For high-level people, the risk factor of fighting at this level is actually not high.
Of course, if ordinary people who don't know anything dare to play directly like this, they will usually lose their partners by mistake.
After playing for a while, Huang Xiaoshi saw the system prompt.
"System prompt: You have imitated the [Drunken Fighting] skill."
Next, Huang Xiaoshi punched Wei Ming with a [Drunken Punch] punch, but Wei Ming dodged.
Seeing this drunken fist, Weiming's eyes showed surprise.
Brother Xiao Shi is worthy of being Brother Xiao Shi. He has already mastered his drunken fist before he even touched his martial arts routines.
After this punch, Huang Xiaoshi continued to use the Chicken Claw Kung Fu on Wei Ming. He used [Chicken Eats Rice] and [Chicken Claw Double Kill] together to see which one Wei Ming could comprehend.
After a while, Weiming suddenly turned his fingers into claws and grabbed Huang Xiaoshi. Huang Xiaoshi was unable to dodge, and a large piece of his clothes was torn directly.
"good!"
Now that Wei Ming had seen and mastered the [Chicken Claw Double Kill], Huang Xiaoshi directly used [Drunken Strike] to fight Wei Ming, and Wei Ming also used the newly learned [Chicken Claw Double Kill].
Whether it is [Double Kill with Chicken Feet] or [Drunken Fight], they are both extremely excellent skills, which at the same time meet the requirements of low consumption, no cooldown, and easy use.
However, after Huang Xiaoshi and Weiming fought for more than ten moves, he stopped.
"No fight, no fight." Huang Xiaoshi waved his hands repeatedly.
Although the two exchanged skills, their movements did not.
Wei Ming still used the drunken fist pace, and Huang Xiaoshi still found it difficult to hit Wei Ming.
However, Huang Xiaoshi didn't dodge any of the unknown [Chicken Claw Double Kill]. After more than ten consecutive attacks, less than half of Huang Xiaoshi's energy and blood were knocked out.
No more playing, no more playing, it’s already in place.
Huang Xiaoshi looks miserable now. Although he is fine, the clothes all over his body were torn into rags by chicken claws.
This is the first time Huang Xiaoshi has been attacked by chicken claws. To be honest, Huang Xiaoshi only deeply understands the power of chicken claws after experiencing it personally.
This trick can blow up your clothes!
Fortunately, Huang Xiaoshi had put all his valuables in the backpack in advance, and there were also a few sets of changes of clothes in the backpack. Otherwise, Huang Xiaoshi would have had to temporarily pretend to be a member of the Beggar Clan.
Unming gained a lot from this sparring session.
Weiming beat Huang Xiaoshi to the point where he surrendered without using the choke technique or drunken stick. The key reason for this was that [Chicken Feet Double Kill] was too powerful.
[Chicken Claw Double Kill] has the effect of left and right fighting. The efficiency and frequency of this attack far exceed that of [Drunk Attack].
No matter how fast [Drunken Fight] is, it can only be used one move at a time, while [Chicken Claw Double Kill] can only use two moves.
[Chicken Claw Double Kill] also has the [Armor Breaking] effect, making it more lethal.
If Wei Ming, who has mastered [Chicken Claw Double Kill], encounters [Crazy] again, he can just scrape him without a stick.
However, what Weiming and Huang Xiaoshi didn't expect was that the trick Weiming mastered [Double Kill with Chicken Feet] would eventually cause him a great disaster.
On the other hand, Huang Xiaoshi has mastered a [Drunken Fight], which can only be said to be better than nothing. The only advantage of [Drunken Fight] is that Huang Xiaoshi can use it to activate his leg skills.
This discussion ended with Huang Xiaoshi admitting defeat.
This doesn't mean that Huang Xiaoshi can't beat Wei Ming.
Even if Wei Ming is in full state, holding a stick and drinking wine, Huang Xiaoshi really wants to kill Wei Ming.
Yes, in terms of "killing", Huang Xiaoshi also has a unique trick to press the bottom of the box, the killing fist.
Huang Xiaoshi now understands that there is no killing intention, or if you don't want to really kill someone, it's best not to use the killing intention fist.
Once the [Killing Intent Fluctuation] is activated, the feeling of killing intent is overwhelming and one cannot control the strength at all.
Killing Intention Fist is for killing people, not for practicing martial arts.
After punching for a while, the two of them rested for a while and each performed a few rounds of internal energy to replenish the internal energy and blood they had just consumed.
After returning to the city, Huang Xiaoshi took Weiming to a restaurant.
They had already had a decent meal at noon, but Huang Xiaoshi was determined not to make do with it any more in the afternoon.
Money and ability are good. Huang Xiaoshi found a restaurant that seemed to be the largest and most luxurious, and dragged Wei Ming, who had never seen the world, into it.
After arriving at the store, Huang Xiaoshi didn't even look at the menu and said directly to the waiter: "Waiter, give me the best banquet you can have, the kind with a lot of meat."
"Okay. Gentlemen, please sit down for a moment." The waiter skillfully led the two of them to the private room and left happily.
A big fat sheep came.
Huang Xiaoshi doesn't care about being treated like a fat sheep, what he wants is the best experience.
It was an eye-opener for Wei Ming, Brother Xiao Shi was so generous in what he did.
…
After having enough wine and food, Huang Xiaoshi and Weiming picked up the tea that the waiter enthusiastically served. The two of them drank tea and digested their food in the restaurant. After a while, it was getting dark.
In winter, it gets dark early, and as soon as it gets dark, it's Xu time.
Huang Xiaoshi didn't know the time and place of the meeting, so he could only follow Wei Ming.
I saw Weiming and Huang Xiaoshi walking around on the street where the lanterns were first lit. Finally, they came to a brightly lit courtyard.
Wei Ming stood in the distance and looked at the beautiful women at the door, his expression a little twitchy.
Along the way, Weiming repeatedly emphasized to Huang Xiaoshi several times that the place he wanted to go next was really not his choice.
Regarding this, Huang Xiaoshi expressed that he was very calm and calm.
After all, it’s not like Huang Xiaoshi has never experienced anything like heaven and earth. In this regard, Huang Xiaoshi can be said to be well-informed.
Compared to the coquettish Wei Ming, Huang Xiaoshi can be said to be majestic and high-spirited.
It's not like there aren't places like this in Luoyang, but the quality is worrisome. Huang Xiaoshi was almost frightened to death when he was dragged to see the world.
So Huang Xiaoshi walked among thousands of flowers, and not a single leaf touched him. Not to mention asking him for money, even if he was given money, he couldn't bear it.
Everyone agrees: Jiangnan is of high quality. Today Huang Xiaoshi wants to personally judge what Jiangnan’s advantages are.
Of course, they say a man’s wallet is his courage.
Unlike Weiming's little bit of courage, he has a thousand taels of silver banknotes weighing on his body, and his courage is as strong as gold.
…
At the gate of Yichun Court, there were three people waiting impatiently.
"Stupid painter, do you think that boy will come on time?" The scholar looked aside with a nonchalant expression and spoke in a funny tone, but it was difficult to hide the anxiety in his heart.
"Old bookworm, you let him go at that time." Dan Qing said angrily from the side, "You also said that when heaven assigns a great responsibility to this person, there must be some tests. Now I am worried about whether it is too late.
Already?"
Scholar and Danqing abandoned Wei Ming and ran away as soon as they arrived in Hangzhou. On the one hand, the fact that they were going to do it later was kept secret. The less others knew about it until it was necessary, the better.
On the other hand, the scholar wanted to test Wei Ming to see that although Wu Xia Zi sent Wei Ming, it was still unclear whether Wei Ming could take on the big responsibility.
To put it simply, if Wei Ming can gather at Yichun Court on time, he must have at least three qualities: punctuality, trustworthiness, and a certain ability to collect intelligence.
Don't look at the three conditions as simple. In future generations, just any young person may not be able to meet them. At this time, it is a relatively high standard.
The three of them were not kept waiting for too long, and they saw the majestic Huang Xiaoshi dragging Wei Ming over.
When he saw an unexpected person, the third person standing with Scholar Danqing immediately became serious. He asked in a low voice: "Who is this person?"
The scholar opened his fan and shook it for a few times before saying, "What a coincidence. This person is Huang Xiaoshi, the master of the Baicao Sect of Shennong in Luoyang and a registered disciple of Xiaoyao Valley."
"Huang Xiaoshi?" The man felt as if he had heard this name before, but he still asked uneasily: "Is this person trustworthy?"
Dan Qing nodded and said: "It's credible. The last batch of goods was all transported here thanks to him."
"Oh! Come to think of it, no wonder it sounds so familiar." The man finally remembered who Huang Xiaoshi was. Isn't it the same Huang Xiaoshi that his third brother Shi Yi had told about at least ten times.
Okay, okay, with this person joining, the strength of the heroes tonight can be increased by one point.
"Two gentlemen." Weiming arrived at the gate of Yichun Court and shouted shyly to the scholar and Danqing.
"Come on, let me introduce you." The scholar smiled and pointed to the third person standing with them and said: "This is the young escort chief of Jinfeng Escort Agency, Lu Shaolin."
Lu Shaolin smiled gently and said, "Disrespectful, disrespectful."
The scholar pointed at Weiming and Huang Xiaoshi and said: "The third disciple of Xiaoyao Valley, Dongfang Weiming. The master of Luoyang Shennong Baicao Sect, Huang Xiaoshi."
Huang Xiaoshi and Weiming saluted everyone in unison.
The scholar closed the fan and patted it in his hand. He turned around and looked at Yichun Court and said with satisfaction: "They say a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold, so let's not delay any longer and let's go."
In this way, the three old drivers with evil smiles and Huang Xiaoshi, who had seen the world, strode towards the building with the only chick Wei Ming between them.
