In the early days of Xixia, although the country was small and weak, Shi Le was able to take charge of the overall situation, and everyone listened to Shi Le's orders.
Although Nanliang now has an army of 2 million and looks strong, it is already in chaos internally.
The ghost controlled the Nanliang court with a vengeful mentality, and Li Chengdao became a slave. The government was left to Xuan Jizi, and Nanliang was divided and disorganized.
The ghost fetus appeared in Jinling City, which seemed to strengthen Nanliang's strength, but in fact it caused it to fall apart internally.
For Long Chen, this was unexpected.
Things are always changing, and many things are uncontrollable. Sometimes they get better, sometimes they get worse.
At the beginning, Li Chengdao tried his best to clean up the government affairs, win over the people's hearts, and prevent the situation in Xixia where the monarch, ministers and people were alienated from each other, leaving Long Chen with no opportunity to take advantage of him.
Unexpectedly, Li Chengdao's several years of hard work were easily destroyed by ghosts.
Guitai knew this problem well, but he didn't care.
His purpose was just to let Nan Liang and Dong Zhou fight to the death and exhaust both sides.
As for what will happen to Nanliang after the war, that is not important.
His country is in the snowy plains of the north, not here.
Xuanjizi is a lewd thief. He just wants to have fun in the harem and doesn't care about the survival of Nanliang.
Yunqi City is already an isolated city. Yu Ziming wants Wang Quan to withdraw his troops, but Xuan Jizi disagrees and thinks Long Chen can be contained.
"How can we contain a mere 30,000 troops? Even if Long Chen sends troops, Wang Quan dares to leave the city?"
Yu Ziming disagreed with Xuan Jizi's statement, but he had nothing to do.
Guitai asked Xuan Jizi to be the national advisor, and he had the final say in the daily affairs of the government.
"If you don't agree, you can go to the Holy Son and let the Holy Son decide."
Xuan Jizi was a little unhappy. He now had great power and could take over any woman in the palace. His feeling of power was inflated. Yu Ziming, the Minister of War, was not in his eyes.
Yu Ziming didn't want to see a ghost, so he had to say: "The Holy Son has entrusted the affairs of the state to the Imperial Guards. If the Imperial Guards feel that they will not withdraw their troops, then they will not withdraw their troops."
After saying that, Yu Ziming turned around and returned to the military headquarters.
Xuanjizi pointed at the big-breasted palace maid and said with a lewd smile: "Ruyan, come here!"
The palace maid ran over with a smile, Xuanjizi hugged her in her arms, and said with a laugh: "They all say that concubines are good, they are just of nobler birth. In terms of figure and appearance, there is no way they can compare with you."
The concubines and concubines in the palace have played all the mysteries, and they are tired of them.
In the end, I still felt that the palace maid was beautiful and her body was more plump and interesting than the concubines.
Ruyan chuckled and said, "Can the Imperial Master make me your concubine?" ⑧①ZW.????m
Xuanjizi laughed and said: "Of course, I have the final say in Daliang today, and I will canonize you as Concubine Yan today."
Ruyan hugged Xuanjizi and said softly: "I would like to thank the Imperial Master for the title."
When the other maids saw Ruyan being conferred as a concubine, they all gathered around and wanted Xuanjizi to be conferred.
Xuanjizi was so happy that he actually canonized them.
In one day, Xuanjizi consecrated more than 30 concubines and more than 50 concubines.
After the officials and people of Jinling City found out about it, it became a joke for a while.
East Palace.
Zhong Gui entered the secret room, and Li Chengdao was studying the Long family's secret method.
"Your Majesty, the Fairy Zhehua is doing mischief in the harem, consecrating nearly a hundred concubines in one day..."
"Not only that, he also clamored to choose a concubine and let the people produce beautiful girls!"
This matter is so ridiculous that Zhong Gui really can't stand it.
Li Chengdao's face was expressionless, his mind always focused on the Long family's secret method.
"Today's government has been made into a mess by them, and both the government and the public are at a loss as to what to do. How can we deal with the enemy in such a situation..."
Zhong Gui was very worried. He felt that the government of Nanliang was in complete chaos.
In the current situation, the imperial court was completely unable to resist the invasion of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Li Chengdao slowly accepted the Long family's secret method and said, "Zhong Gui, remember, don't worry about external matters!"
"You only need to do one thing now, which is to practice and improve your cultivation."
"You have never practiced seriously before. I think you have good qualifications and you will be able to break through given time."
"What happens to the government will be dealt with by the Holy Son. Don't talk about it in the future."
In the past, Zhong Gui only worked as a slave for Li Chengdao, taking care of daily life, and had almost no practice.
During these times, Zhong Gui followed him in training, and Li Chengdao discovered that Zhong Gui's aptitude was surprisingly good.
As long as Zhong Gui is willing to spend time, it will not be a problem for Zhong Gui to break through to Emperor Zun.
Zhong Gui nodded and sighed: "I remember, it's just that Daliang has a good family, and being tormented by them like this, I feel uncomfortable."
Li Chengdao didn't care at all and said: "Don't worry, even if the beam is gone, I will still be the master of the world!"
Zhong Gui didn't understand what Li Chengdao meant. If Daliang was gone, how could he, the emperor of Daliang, be the master of the world?
"Continue to practice, I have new insights. The Long family is really powerful, no wonder they dare to go against the Martial Saint."
Li Chengdao smiled coldly and continued to practice with his eyes closed.
...
Monkey Maze Pass.
The warships on the riverside were lined up in rows. Guard Liao Yong commanded the navy in the city to board the ships, and all the bows, crossbows, hooks and sickles were ready.
"King Wu, you are ready and you can set off."
Long Chen stood by the river, looking at Yunqi City opposite, and Liao Yong came up to report.
This time, Long Chen quietly arrived at Houmi Pass and prepared to attack Yunqi City.
After conquering Yunqi City, the upper reaches of the river were completely under the control of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
"Set off!"
Long Chen got on the boat, and Liao Yong also got on the boat.
The flag was waving, and the warship drifted towards Yunqi City in the south, taking advantage of the wind and current.
On the other side, Yunqi City.
The guard, Wang Quan, was standing on the city wall, and the deputy general was mobilizing troops to prepare to defend the city.
The warships moved upstream, and there were many fast boats moored on the northern city wall, filled with firewood and poured with kerosene.
When the warships of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty came over, the warships from upstream rushed down the river and hit them. The clipper ships quickly rammed into them, igniting the firewood and kerosene inside and burning the warships of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
"We have become an isolated city, and the Ministry of War does not allow us to retreat, and wants us to contain Long Chen!"
"How can we contain Long Chen with only 30,000 troops?"
Lieutenant General Chen Sheng went up to the city wall and complained.
When the order from the Ministry of War arrived at Yunqi City, everyone was very dissatisfied.
The cities around Yunqi City were all controlled by the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and Houmi Pass in the north of the Yangtze River was preparing to cross the river. It was meaningless to hold on here.
The guard, Wang Quan, felt helpless and said: "It is difficult to disobey the emperor's order. The Ministry of War asked us to stick to it, so we can only stick to it."
King Quan is the commander-in-chief, and he has no choice but to stick to it.
Lieutenant General Chen Sheng looked at the warship floating over, turned around and shouted: "Bang the drum!"
The war drums are beating, and the soldiers in the city are preparing to fight.
Wang Quan looked towards the river and could vaguely see the handsome flag of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty...
"Look what that is!"
Wang Quan pointed at a building boat on the river and shouted.
Lieutenant General Chen Sheng felt strange, what is it that deserves such fuss?
A school captain next to him exclaimed: "Dragon-character flag! King Wu is on board!"
Wang Quan saw Long Chen's military flag and was frightened.
I thought the leader of the army was Liao Yong, but I didn't expect it was Long Chen.
The largest building ship has the word "dragon" hanging high on it!
The warship next to it has the character "Liao" hanging on it.
Obviously, the commander this time is Long Chen, and Liao Yong is just the deputy general.
"It's over, Long Chen is here in person."
Lieutenant General Chen Sheng felt cold all over.
Other generals and commanders also exclaimed in fright.
If Liao Yong leads the army and Wang Quan dares to defend the city, Liao Yong may not be able to succeed.
But Long Chen personally led the troops, and Wang Quan felt that Yunqi City had been destroyed.
"General Wang! What should we do?"
Lieutenant General Chen Sheng's face turned pale and his voice trembled as he shouted.
Wang Quan also looked bad, but he couldn't show any cowardice.
"Whoever he is, kill him when he comes!"
"I think this is Liao Yong's bluff. Long Chen is guarding Linjiang Town, how could he appear here!"
"Brothers, don't be afraid, this is a lie, Long Chen is not here!"
Wang Quan shouted loudly to embolden his generals.
"Yes, Long Chen can't appear here, don't be afraid, let me kill him!"
Lieutenant General Chen Sheng comforted others and himself at the same time.
The war drums were beating, the royal flag was hoisted high, the bows and crossbows were on the move, and the sailors got into the fast boats and rushed towards the warships of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
