Obviously, not only Cihang Jingzhai's family thought of using the disputes in the rivers and lakes to stop Wu Guogong Leihu from integrating the south, but other forces in the North that were determined to dominate the world also did not watch.
Yuwenshi and his family went south to Jiangdu, and they brought with them enough martial arts players trained and recruited by Yuwen Clan. The combination of a dozen first-rate and second-rate players was a very powerful force no matter where they were placed.
Their purpose is to collect the "Secret of Immortality" secrets scattered around Jiangdu, under the guise of working for Sui Emperor Yang Guang, but their real purpose is to disrupt the Jianghui area and block or destroy Wu Guogong's northward expansion.
.
The task is quite arduous and extremely dangerous. The only downside is that there will be no return.
But the Yuwen Clan had to send its core members south, otherwise they would have no chance.
On the deck of a large ship with five teeth, Yu Wenshi and his masters communicated in low voices without paying any attention to the picturesque scenery on both sides of the canal.
"Your Majesty is still too cautious. If General Yuwen can be allowed to take over the post of staying in Jiangdu, we can complete the mission better!"
Although he was well aware of this mission to the south, he was an expert in this field and spoke and communicated in a very high-sounding manner, as if he was really dedicated to Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty.
"The Jianghuai area is not very peaceful. Neither Du Fuwei nor Li Zitong is a fuel-efficient lamp. Which one does the general plan to start with first?"
"It depends on the situation. The Haisha Gang that used to run across the Yangtze River Basin was a subordinate gang of our Yuwen Clan. Unexpectedly, they rebelled and joined Wu Guogong's sect a few days ago. I would like to ask the senior officials of the Haisha Gang whether the Yuwen Clan's ship is
It’s so easy!”
"General, I'm afraid it's better not to be too tough. After all, this is Wu Guogong's territory. If we provoke the world's best master, we won't be able to just walk away!"
"What are you afraid of? We are acting according to the Holy Orders. Even Mr. Wu Guogong has to give him some face in person!"
"..."
As for the so-called collection of "Secret of Immortality", they didn't even mention it, obviously they knew it well.
It is said that Lei Hu obtained the secret book "Secret of Immortality" from Shi Long and directly made the seven luck diagrams drawn on it public, causing an uproar in the Central Plains.
The various branches of the Martial League even sold it publicly for a period of time. A set of power luck maps cost one price. It is not difficult to collect seven complete sets of power luck maps. Of course, the money and points required are not a small number.
Most people in the martial arts world really can't afford it.
But just like that, with the energy of Yuwen Clan, he had already collected all seven luck maps. The masters recruited and trained by his family did not waste their energy in pondering and understanding, but unfortunately they all ended in failure.
Later, everyone thought that the secret book of "The Secret of Immortality" was incomplete and that it was impossible to practice with the luck chart alone, so they gradually gave up their enthusiasm.
This time, the Yuwen Clan sent out experts who wanted to make trouble in the Jianghuai area and even the Jiangnan area. They happened to use the "Secret of Immortality" as an excuse and went directly to Jiangdu through the relationship with Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty.
When he first revealed the seven luck maps of the "Secret of Immortality", Lei Hu had no intention of being too secretive. Everyone in the world with some energy knew that the "Secret of Immortality" secret book was first handed down to the number one master in Yangzhou.
Pushing the mountain hand and stone dragon's hand.
It's not like no one has had Shilong's idea before. They need to be able to obtain the complete "Secret of Immortality" secret book, but naturally there is no result.
Pusher Shi Long jumped out of the pit of "Secret of Immortality" early. With the help of the broad platform of the Martial Alliance and the sporadic guidance of Wu Guogong Lei Hu, his martial arts has advanced by leaps and bounds and has reached the late stage of innateness, not far away from the peak of innateness.
.
With such strength, he can definitely be called a top master.
As long as the top expert from a powerful family does not take action, or the top experts from Buddhist, Taoist and Demonic sects take action, or a master-level expert takes action, he can be said to be invincible in the world.
In the original work, Yu Wenhua, the young master of the Yuwen Clan at this time, was also defeated by his opponent Shi Long. This meant that all the masters and forces in the world who wanted to take advantage of him often failed.
This time, the core members of the Yuwen clan took advantage of the opportunity of the powerful Sui Emperor Yang Guang to persuade the emperor who was obsessed with life and death to pursue the idea of immortality, and obtained the emperor's order to "act cheaply" and go south to Jiangdu.
In fact, the best candidate to go south is Yuwen Shiji. As the apparent number one master among the younger generation of the Yuwen Clan, his strength is much better than that of Yuwen Shiji, and with his official position, he can do more things.
Quite a bit, but it's a pity that he couldn't get out at this time.
No matter how absurd and unreliable Sui Emperor Yang Guang was at this time, his orthodox status was still crucial.
As the commander of the Imperial Guards, Yuwen Wenji is the most important presence placed by the Yuwen clan around Yang Guang. He can accomplish something by influencing Yang Guang, and it is quite useful. Naturally, he will not give up easily.
Therefore, this time Yuwen Shiji can only come forward. Whether it can succeed is another matter. Yuwen Clan must intervene to stir things up, otherwise it will be really uneasy.
What is hateful is that although Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty had lost his ambition and was completely decadent from being drunk and dreaming all day long, his mind was still clear. No matter how many tricks and efforts the Yuwen Clan used, Yang Guang did not relent and gave up the position of Jiangdu.
Instead, he is led by his trusted ministers.
This made the senior officials of the Yuwen clan, who were eager to find a foothold, extremely depressed. This time Yuwenshi went south to Jiangdu, and he had the emperor's orders to find out the mistakes of Jiangdu.
You will be away, why don't you give me your orders?
If he could find out the major faults of Jiangdu's current left-behind forces, Yu Wenshiji would not mind using thunderous means to capture the people and forcibly take over the military and political power of Jiangdu.
The Yuwen Clan has been a step too late in its struggle for world hegemony. It has not yet found a good foothold, and it is really difficult to achieve much in the North.
Jin fell into the hands of the Li Clan, and they also had the direct support of the Turks. The Yuwen Clan was not sure that they could defeat the Li Clan, and could only watch helplessly as the other party recruited troops and horses to expand its power in Jin.
The land of Heluo is run like an iron barrel by the patron king Yang Lin, and there is not much room for the Yuwen clan to intervene. It is true that the power in the hands of the Yang royal family is too tyrannical. As long as hundreds of thousands of elite Sui troops are commanded properly,
He can completely conquer the Northland without any rivals.
In the vast area north of the Yellow River, there is still a lot of territory for the Yuwen Clan to establish a foothold.
It's just a pity that both the Ji and Lu lands are too chaotic. There are wars and heroes are rising one after another. Those guys who raise the flag of rebellion are not easy to deal with.
The Yuwen clan secretly contacted these rebel leaders many times, and used many methods of coercion or inducement. There were even assassinations and sneak attacks by masters, but in the end they all failed.
The powerful rebel force north of the Yellow River is no joke. With the apparent strength of the Yuwen Clan at this time, it is really hard to resist.
Moreover, the martial arts skills of the rebel leaders are not ordinary. They are at least first-class and mid-level. Even if Yu Wenhua, the top master of the younger generation of the Yuwen Clan, personally fights, he may not be able to win.
In addition, these rebels were absolutely powerful in numbers, so the Yuwen Clan was unable to do anything with them. In the end, they had no choice but to give up on the idea of secretly controlling one or two rebels as their secret agents.
Moreover, Yang Guang was quite stingy about leaving a position in a major town in the North. It was not easy to get it if he wanted to. It made it very difficult for the Yuwen Clan to get a piece of land in the North. In the end, he had no choice but to give up temporarily.
.
Jiangdu is a good choice, although it is close to the Yangtze River and adjacent to the forces controlled by Wu Guogong. It is very difficult to develop even without being affected by Wu Guogong's territory.
But this is really a good base. It is built according to the standards of a capital city and is surrounded by sacred lands. Whoever controls Jiangdu will be qualified to participate in the world hegemony.
Of course, if you want to control Jiangdu or even make a difference, you must have strong strength as your trump card, otherwise you will not be able to withstand the terrifying pressure from the south of the Yangtze River.
The Yuwen Clan did have this confidence, but it was a pity that Yang Guang did not give them a chance, so they could only plan secretly.
…
The Duke's Mansion in Qiantang City, as the well-deserved political center of the entire south, is bustling with people coming and going every day. Countless news from all over the world gathers here, allowing Duke Wu Leihu to accurately grasp the overall situation of the world and make accurate judgments and make correct decisions.
development strategy.
Although most of the government affairs have been handed over to his subordinates, some matters still have to be decided by Lei Hu himself.
for example……
"Wu Gong, Yuwen Shiji of the Yuwen Clan took a boat with a dozen masters to go south. The purpose is unknown. Do you want to teach them a lesson and ask them to be more honest when they arrive in Jiangdu?"
Yu Wenshi and Nan Xia were honest and honest, and his whereabouts were naturally under the watchful eye of Wu Guogong's secret agents. Now that they were about to arrive at their destination, Wu Guogong's ministers in charge of intelligence collection and analysis naturally wanted to give him a blow.
All fools know that this guy has absolutely no good intentions when he goes south. In this case, there is no need to be polite. It would be better to strike first and impress Yuwen Shiji and the Yuwen clan behind him.
"Didn't he threaten to collect the complete book of (The Secret of Immortality)? He's probably going to have a conflict with Shi Long, so let Shi Long teach him a lesson!"
Lei Hu smiled lightly and said: "Just tell him to restrain himself a little. There is no need to hit him too hard. Without Yuwen Clan to toss in the Jianghuai area, the water there is still not turbid enough!"
Because of the good relationship with the orthodox Taoist sect, Lei Hu was able to get a lot of accurate information about the North, such as the causes and consequences of Yu Wenshi and his journey south to Jiangdu, and the fact that Fan Qinghui, the master of Cihang Jingzhai Zhai, quietly went down the mountain without knowing his sect.
News about Dugu Clan's Dugu Ce also heading south, etc.
"Mr. Wu, recently there has been a lot of news in the world about Mr. Yang's treasure, and the Goguryeo Rakshasa women have assassinated several northern officials!"
The intelligence officer was still making the report slowly...
