Xiao Jiang didn't like to be involved in any forces, but his game mode has been turned on. In a sense, he has become a gamer like Liu Doudou. Anyway, he has a mission, so he plans to play while completing the mission.
Think of this game as a place to hone your thinking and strategic vision.
Xiao Jiang has not officially become a vassal force. Only when the battle against Dong is over and all forces start fighting for supremacy in the late Han Dynasty will he officially become a vassal force.
During this crusade against Dong Zhuo, all the ministries in Guandong received correction orders, but Xiao Jiang's Qingzhou did not. As for why Xiao Jiang and many people knew it well, Xiao Jiang was now the King of the North Sea, the General of Hussars, and the Shepherd of Qingzhou.
, although Liu Bian stepped down and Liu Xie came to power, no one dared to cancel his status as Tai Tu.
If he came out, he would be more authoritative than the state pastors of the Han clan clan, and he would have to completely control the troops and horses of the more than ten princes, and the others would only become his subordinates.
Is Yuan Shao willing to do this? Is Cao Cao willing? Is Han Fu willing? Is Tao Qian willing? These people are all people with different aspirations, how can they be willing to give away their strength to others?
No, then these people have selectively forgotten the powerful Taifu and the Hussars General, who are the most powerful, famous, and most qualified to defeat Buchen.
Forget it, Xiao Jiang would naturally not be able to get together, otherwise the princes would think he was here to seize power, and he would not be able to lead all the troops to Luoyang. The land of Qingzhou is rich and stable, so it is the land coveted by so many people.
Meat.
And the reason why he asked Zhang Yang to agree to raise troops was very simple, that is, for his own convenience, he could sneak in and see the faces of these princes. If he saw clearly, Xiao Jiang would not hesitate to kill them in the future.
At dusk, Zhang Yang entered the tent with a disdainful smile. He put down his helmet and said to Xiao Jiang:
"My lord, if it is as you said, the major princes did not dare to take the lead in taking the oath, it was Zang Hong, the meritorious officer of Guangling Prefect, who made the oath on behalf of the allied princes.
Now Yuan Shao is the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shu is the grain officer, and Sun Jian is the vanguard. We are going to let him go to Sishui Pass tomorrow. This coalition is tutting... I guess we can share the blessings, but we can hardly share the difficulties."
Xiao Jiang already knew the details, and his detector was also at the site of the Jujube Oath. He looked at the performance of the major princes and found that the only people who were really willing to deal with Dong Zhuo with all their strength at this time were Cao Cao and Sun Jian. The others all wanted to retain their strength.
Xiao Jiang said:
"It's normal. You also remember my instructions and you can't take risks. When you return to the Shangdang, you will start recruiting troops and training them so that I can easily mobilize troops when I need them."
Bingzhou leads from Youji to the east, Sili to the south, and borders Hetao and Liangzhou to the west. It is itself a place of four battles. If not prepared, other forces will find ways to annex it.
Xiao Jiang has already made up his mind to play games, so he has to be more serious. He currently has hundreds of civil and military personnel under the hidden monarch sequence. Although he does not have any high-end military generals and civil servants, under his deployment, his existing strength has developed extremely.
powerful.
The Bingzhou army is mainly composed of cavalry, and the infantry is mainly used for defense and attack. Including Lianzhou soldiers and county soldiers, Bingzhou also has 40,000 troops. In addition to Qingzhou's 60,000 troops, Xiao Jiang is also a powerful figure with a hundred thousand troops.
Nowadays, everyone in the world with a little bit of insight will find that it is already in chaos. Everyone is waiting for an opportunity. Once someone starts to take action, the separation of the princes will naturally begin.
After carefully explaining what happened next to Zhang Yang and Mu Shun, Xiao Jiang left quietly under the cover of night. Ten days later, a battle began in front of Sishui Pass, but Xiao Jiang appeared in Zhaojiazhuang, Changshan, Jizhou.
There is a hut in front of a new tomb. In front of the hut, a young man in white is practicing martial arts with a bright silver gentian spear. He is like a dragon and the spear is like a rainstorm. He is flashing around like a pear blossom, and the tip of the spear is turning over.
It was like hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix, and the sound of the tip of the spear piercing the air caused waves of air to flow around.
"Good marksmanship."
Xiao Jiang's voice appeared, but the man was not surprised. There was a sneer on the man's face, and he flicked his bow and stabbed Xiao Jiang with a wave of meteors in his hand like a startling dragon.
This man did not do it to kill people, but because he saw the huge cross halberd in Xiao Jiang's hand.
Warriors will feel itchy when they see a master, and the same goes for Zhao Yun. When Xiao Jiang saw that he was a master, he made a test move.
Xiao Jiang was not surprised either. He just made a sweeping sweep of the big halberd in his hand. It was simple but extremely domineering, as if everything before him could be defeated instantly.
The man turned the gun in his hand and heard a few jingles. The man turned over and landed on the ground. He looked at Xiao Jiang's calm face in surprise and said:
"You can conquer ten societies with one force. This halberd technique is so domineering. Even the halberd god Li Yan does not have such a terrifying halberd technique in this world. Only the legendary overlord can fight unparalleled with one halberd. Who is my brother?"
Xiao Jiang took back the spurge and said:
"Xiao Jiang, I'm here to find my brother's master, the Gunslinger, to prove his skills."
The man was stunned for a moment and came to his senses. He put the gun on the ground and clasped his fists in salute:
"Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong have met Prince Xiao."
Xiao Jiang said with a smile:
"Brother, there is no need to be polite. I had a battle with senior Li Yan some time ago. His halberd skills have reached the realm of transformation, but his skills are more than his strength, and he is old and weak. Although he is better than him, he laments that time has not spared him.
Man, if he is still at his peak, I don’t know how confident I can be against him.”
Zhao Yun laughed dryly and said:
"When Prince Xiao was granted the title of Marquis of Wu, it was rumored that you were the best general in the world at that time. Today, when I see that the prince's power is comparable to that of an overlord, and you can defeat senior Li Yan with your skills, you are worthy of this title.
The prince said that he wanted to compete with my master, which is not easy. I went to see my master a few days ago but could not find him."
"Zilong... There is no need for Prince Xiao to look for me, Tong Yuan will come."
Suddenly, a figure rushed towards him on the path in the distance, and soon he was approaching. It was a man in his fifties with a ruddy face. Although he was running wildly, his face remained calm and his breath was even. At first glance, he was still in peak condition.
"Disciple has met Master."
After Zhao Yun saluted, Xiao Jiang cupped his fists and greeted:
"Senior Tong, I have heard about the name of the Gunslinger for a long time. Xiao Jiang is so famous today when I see him. Senior is full of energy at this time and is much stronger than other warriors who will lose their energy and spirit as they age. This is really Xiao Jiang's luck.
"
Tong Yuan looked at Xiao Jiang with a smile and said:
"Prince Xiao is indeed a hero among men. No wonder my junior brother would ask me to come to challenge you. With your huge strength and extremely high cultivation level, I will not be stronger than your junior brother if I fight with you. So just fight with your heart, so that I can
I will compete with you in skills with the same level of cultivation."
Xiao Jiang nodded and said:
"That's fine. In the realm of mental battle, you can prove the peak of your skills. Then, Senior Tong, let's get ready to start."
Tong Yuan nodded and pulled out the silver gentian spear from the ground. He stepped back three feet away and said:
"In today's battle, I will use my unique skills. Prince Xiao, please..."
