When the fresh air outside the palace was breathed into his chest, Ji Fa perked up and waved his arms. If you want to read the complete version for free, please search it on Baidu.
The ministers argued for a long time and then dispersed, but in fact anyone with a discerning eye knew that nothing could be achieved from the dispute.
To deal with external affairs, one must first settle internal affairs. The internal conflicts in Xiqi have actually been brewing for a long time and have been suppressed by Ji Chang with clever means. Now that they have broken out, it is no longer easy to stop them.
But it doesn't matter, external force is both the catalyst for the outbreak of conflicts and the mediator for the quelling of conflicts.
Even San Yisheng, who opposed the reform, would not be too fierce. The San Yi family had long been completely tied to Xiqi's chariot. If they were held back at this time, everyone would suffer.
Therefore, it is impossible to demote soldiers into slaves again. It is an act of suicide, allowing the aristocratic opposition to express their dissatisfaction until they face the enemy before they can use their strength in one direction.
Ji Chang admired Ji Fa's methods of governing his subordinates and has been learning from them. Just from the fact that he called his officials "virtuous friends", we can see his brilliance.
However, in the current situation, the tactics and tactics have been greatly weakened. Su Hu's army is approaching, and it is time for a real confrontation with real swords and guns.
"This is my chance!"
Ji Fa's eyes showed excitement.
Boyikao is usually compassionate, but he can't come up with any constructive suggestions at this moment, and he will turn the tide in a critical moment. By then, Ji Chang will naturally be able to see clearly who should inherit the position of Xibohou and who can lead Xiqi
Keep flying.
With this belief, Ji Fa returned to his courtyard and saw bursts of singing and dancing coming from it. He frowned slightly and walked in without showing any displeasure on his face.
Above the main hall, the dancers were dancing gracefully, the musicians were beating out beautiful rhythms on the bells and drums, and the graceful maids were carrying plates of delicious food, shuttling back and forth like butterflies. Most of the people at the table had strange looks.
, and some hugged the maid and teased her, acting wildly.
When Ji Fa walked in, some people stood up and some simply turned a blind eye.
Ji Fa didn't take it seriously. He sat at the main seat and waved his hand. The dancers and musicians immediately worked harder and served various dishes more diligently.
With such courtesy, the stranger at the table was satisfied.
They were all strange people who defected to Xiqi during this period. During the battle in Jizhou City, Ji Fa was very jealous of the magical power of Zhang Kui, Gao Lanying and General Heng Ha. After returning to Xiqi, he immediately spent a lot of money to seek help from the world.
Master.
He has learned literary and martial arts, has goods from the emperor's family, and the worldly glory and wealth are enough to impress some people from outside the country. In addition, Ji Fa loves talents and is courteous to the virtuous. Whenever you get along with him, you feel like a spring breeze. It is said that reciprocating a favor is like eating and drinking.
After that, one of the tall and tall men stood up and said: "Your Highness, I heard that Hou Suhu of Jizhou led his army to attack the border. If there is anything you can do to help, just say it!"
Everyone agreed, and Ji Fa cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gao. Su Hu defies heaven and deceives his heart. He will definitely be defeated. It's just pity that our people in Xiqi will suffer from military disasters!"
He sighed. Gao Jineng was born in the bitter cold. Seeing that Ji Fa really loved the people like his father, he admired him in his heart. He patted his chest and said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will definitely stop Su Hu's army outside Jinji Ridge. No matter what,
Tell them to offend me, Xiqi!"
Jinji Ridge outside Sishui Pass is the only place to go east. In Fengshen Romance, Kong Xuan's troops blocked Jinji Ridge and beat Xiqi almost to autism. Now Su Hu's army is also approaching Jinji Ridge.
It is a coincidence that Gao Jineng was originally a general under Kong Xuan's command. He fought fiercely with Xiqi's army at Jinji Ridge and achieved great results. Huang Tianhua was the dead soul of his subordinates.
In terms of battlefield martial arts and supernatural power, he is actually not as good as Huang Tianhua, but he has a magic weapon called the Centipede Bee Bag, which can release overwhelming centipede bees to disrupt the enemy like locusts. The eye of Huang Tianhua's jade unicorn mount was bitten and he fell to the ground during the battle.
Come and be shot to death.
The only enemy of Gao Jineng, the centipede bag, is the iron-billed condor, which worships the black tiger. Now that Beiyuan is also the target of a crusade, it is natural that he is not afraid of being defeated, so he is full of confidence and wants to stop the enemy from outside.
Ji Fa was so moved that he stood up and bowed far away. Seeing Gao Jineng's statement, the others were not to be outdone, and they all expressed that they would not allow Su Hu to come or go. Only a bald Taoist priest said nothing and was just playing with a car made of paper.
windmill.
Ji Fa looked at this man and said sincerely: "Master Fa Jie, can you help me?"
"nature!"
The bald Taoist threw the windmill, and everything that was originally a few inches in size suddenly enlarged and fell into the hall, turning into a strange car.
There is a turntable in the middle with four flags on it. There are talismans and seals on the flags, corresponding to earth, water, fire and wind.
Everyone stepped forward subconsciously, and heard a sudden mechanism inside. Four flags turned away one after another, clouds and mist suddenly rose, the wind rustled, flames soared into the sky, and tens of thousands of blades flew out, whizzing straight to the front door.
Everyone was shocked and fled, and they were in chaos for a while.
Fajie laughed, his Taoist robes fluttered, and the windmill suddenly retracted, leaving only scattered traces on the hall, proving that it was not an illusion.
Fa Jie showed off his authority and stood up slowly and introduced: "This thing is called the Ten Thousand Blade Chariot. A single chariot can defeat a hundred elite soldiers. Pindao has prepared three thousand chariots. Even a hundred thousand troops can be destroyed with a snap of a finger."
,Why bother, Your Highness?"
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Ji Fa couldn't help being happy and praised him repeatedly.
Ji Fa originally did not attach much importance to the art of mechanism. The productivity of this era was indeed not enough to support the research of fantastic ideas, and the investment and harvest were too disproportionate.
However, the Hundred Crossbow Machine made by the Mo family under Jizhou City showed off its power and killed hundreds of Qingqi almost like a massacre, which left a deep impression on him.
If we can obtain this kind of technology, we will have stronger confidence whether it is to resist Su Hu's army or to advance eastward in the future.
Of course, Dashang seems to have already done some research and would normally catch up. However, Fa Jie is a sorcerer and the mechanisms he studies are extraordinary.
This is not blind faith. The Wanbian chariot really showed its power in the Conferred Gods. It was the first group of offensive weapons. It once killed the Zhou army until it was bleeding like a river, and was defeated. Huang Tianlu also died among them.
Both Gao Jineng and Fa Jie possess means of mass destruction, and the two Huang killers deserve the most attention. The rest of them all have their own strengths. Seeing that there are so many talents, Ji Fa is so proud that he laughs out loud.
"With your help, why worry about not accomplishing anything?"
…
…
The other side.
The army marched towards Jinjiling. Su Hu ordered his generals to set up camp and guard the choke points with heavy troops.
Shen Gongbao looked at the weather in Xiqi, frowned slightly, and said to Su Hu: "I'm afraid there are some variables in Xiqi!"
Su Hu asked for advice: "What should we do among the Taoists?"
Shen Gongbao flicked his long sleeves: "No problem, I will go to the famous mountain and invite one or two people who are skilled in Taoism to come and help!"
