In the main hall of the official residence, people are drinking and drinking!
Here, many ministers were seated, and Xun Shaoshang's generals were also sitting at the table.
Xun Shaoyu held up the bronze wine cup and paid tribute to Xun Shaoshang: "Brother's kindness is as high as the heavens and the earth is high; my brother's virtue is as high as the mountains. I have a deep feeling in my heart that I will only look up to my brother Ma Shi in this life."
"please!"
When Xun Shaoyu was toasting, many ministers also paid tribute to Xun Shaoshang.
"please!"
Xun Shaoshang was sitting at the table. The table was covered with delicacies. The broken knife was gently placed on the corner of the table. The fragrance of wine from the bronze wine bottle was settling.
Xun Shaoshang picked up the wine bottle, covered his face with his wide sleeves, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp. He felt that the wine was sweet and sweet, and there were drops of wine between his lips and teeth, leaving a lingering fragrance.
"Brother, please don't be so humble. My face will turn red..."
After all, Xun Shaoshang is the direct grandson of Xun Taiwei, one of the three elders. Although he is a branch of the Xun family, he is not as honorable as the main line of Xun Shaoyu. But Xun Shaoyu is only a bastard, and he is still a bastard without the support of his mother's family. Therefore, the two
In comparison, Xun Shaoyu, the son of the main lineage, was more than a head lower than the legitimate son of Xun Shaoshang, the branch lineage.
The act of looking at people's fortunes was not only done by the nobles of Yeting Palace, but also by ordinary people. Without the support of his mother's family, Xun Shaoyu was in dire straits.
If this were not the case, Xun Shaoyu would not have to be cautious and cautious in his conduct and self-cultivation.
Moreover, comparing the two, Xun Shaoshang is certainly qualified to call him brother and elder brother in front of Xun Shaoyu.
"Hahaha... come on, come on,"
Xun Shaoshang raised his drink and signaled, and everyone followed suit with eagerness.
The two of them had a deep brotherly love, but Xun Shaoyu did not say what trump card he had to fight the three barbarians independently. Xun Shaoshang also did not mention this sensitive issue.
It's just that he was drunk, so he couldn't help but use some probing words. But Xun Shaoyu was very drunk at the same time, staggering around, mumbling for no apparent reason.
"Singing and dancing..."
One of the chamberlains narrowed his eyes, and a long, high-pitched voice echoed from the hall.
Suddenly, a pretty and plump-looking female concubine appeared, with bright and eye-catching clothes, and silver bells on her arms that jingled.
Wearing foot bells, hand bells, and neck bells, eighteen young and beautiful girls shook the fragrance, making people feel softer.
There are only about a thousand households in Tangyi, with a population of less than 4,000. We have to choose from hundreds of people, and we only have a few people in front of us.
Although her appearance is outstanding, she is still at the level of a country girl, and she is still far away from the beauties of Dayi.
Xun Shaochang looked at the swaying female concubine with interest, smiled slightly, and said: "My younger brother Nan Cai is still capable of raising the female concubine. It seems that he is not as embarrassed as he appears."
The ministers were slightly embarrassed. Xun Shaoyu's face remained unchanged, he poured a glass of wine with a smile and said: "I'm showing off my ugliness. The people in Nancai are poor, but I can only entertain my brother with such singing and dancing. Shaoyu is ashamed..."
"
The silk and bamboo are sweet, cold and lingering, slowly turning and rippling in everyone's ears.
"Hahaha... my clan brother is so humble, unlike his demeanor during the Yuan ceremony!"
…………
The vast desert!
In the windy and sandy Gobi Desert, there are still a few white bones with empty eye sockets, silently staring ahead.
Jiang Yi's face was pale, standing among the piles of wind and sand, breathing out Zhou Za's dry and energetic ideas. His naked body still had many scars crisscrossing it, and he looked very hideous and terrifying.
"puff!"
Suddenly, Jiang Yi spat out a mouthful of black blood. When the black blood fell to the ground, it was stained with sand and dust, turning the golden sand on the ground black.
Looking at the eroded darkness under his feet, Jiang Yi smiled: "What a cruel and fast knife!"
Since Jiang Yi was the surrounding barbarian, he deserved to be the strongest man. However, after several battles, his essence, blood, and vitality were depleted, and he hit the Xuan Dao Gang with his finger, and the Dao Gang penetrated into the bone marrow. If he hadn't been one step away from becoming a great barbarian,
If the difference is too small, it is simply impossible to persist to this point. The Zhixuan Dao Gang contained in the bone marrow will tear apart the limbs, bones, and internal organs.
However, Xun Shaoyu's martial arts opened and closed, and he tried his best to sublimate one by one. Although it has great power that shakes the heavens and the earth, there is still some room for negligence when it comes to subtleties.
After all, the overbearing power of Hunyuan Yi Qigong only focuses on the physical body. If you want to be like Xun Shaoshang's Zhixuan Dao Gang, you can see that there is no true meaning in killing, but it is still a long way off.
Therefore, Jiang Yi and Xun Shaoyu attacked fiercely, but they still fought hard and refused to retreat. However, after a Zhixuan Dao Gang shot, they decisively evacuated on the spot and no longer stayed for a long time.
The ruthlessness of that sword was such that even a figure like Jiang Yi was amazed by it.
"It's a pity. Could it be that this great opportunity is about to slip away from my fingertips, and I will no longer have any hope of human luck in this life?"
"In my entire life, I will never hope to dominate the world!"
Jiang Yi murmured to himself, his majestic body standing in the Great Gobi, especially conspicuous.
The wind and sand washed over him, and the roar of the storm echoed in his ears, making Jiang Yi's face look increasingly sad.
Tread! Tread! Tread!
Lou Jie took steps that were neither light nor heavy, and walked to Jiang Yi's side and stood still.
"Lao Jiang, you are our backbone now, we must not make any mistakes. I see that you have been severely injured after the battle on the valley road. I wonder how much fighting power you still have, Lao Jiang."
Lou Jie's eyebrows were heavy, looking at Jiang Yi's face, he said tentatively.
Barbarians respect the strong, and Jiang Yi is respected by the three major tribes with his bloodline power that is close to that of a barbarian.
If Jiang Yi loses his own strength guarantee, not only will the three major tribes immediately renounce their moral integrity, but if they want to form a force again, they will have to expend a lot of effort.
Even the tribes under Jiang Yi's command may be a little unstable. Some aggressive tribesmen may not try to challenge Jiang Yi's territorial status.
"You can try,"
Jiang Yi's eyebrows twitched and he spoke calmly.
The coldness of the words made Lou Jie's expression condense. Seeing the coldness in Jiang Yi's eyebrows, his heart skipped a beat.
The alpha wolf of a wolf pack is not always the same. As the alpha wolf, since it enjoys priority mating rights and even predation rights, it has to withstand the provocations of old and new wolves all the time.
Jiang Yi now looks like a wolf in the eyes of many people, full of dangers and extraordinary opportunities.
Lou Jie Shanshan smiled and said: "Brother is also worried about you, afraid that you might make a mistake... Alas, I made a mistake."
Jiang Quan said indifferently: "How could the sacred land of ancient Jiuzhou be so easy to get involved in? I didn't expect it to return without success this time."
"did you mean?"
Lou Jie seemed to be listening to the deep meaning behind Jiang Yi's words.
Jiang Chen recited them one by one, and it seemed that the people in the four corners of Cai Di were quite familiar with each other.
"They are all famous and proud sons of the Xun family. Now they are all living next to each other in this area. If there is no big or small foul play, we will not believe it."
The coldness on Jiang Ye's face seemed to become more and more obvious.
Lou Jie nodded thoughtfully and said, "Hu Yanming has always said that he has some eyes and ears on Cai Di."
Jiang Yi and Lou Jie looked at each other, each thinking clearly.
I am afraid that Hu Yanming's so-called eyes and ears are one of the four Xuns. Even if the scope is narrowed down a bit, it is very possible that it is one of Xun Shaohe and Xun Shangyi.
They have all heard for a long time that although ancient Kyushu was a place where luck flourished, there were fierce internal battles, but the more rude barbarians were extremely ruthless. The forces of all parties were locked in a stalemate, either for use or inducement.
It is not impossible to use a foreign tribe's knife to kill one's own eyesore.
"It cannot be said, it cannot be expressed,"
Jiang Yi sneered lightly, which made Lou Jie think deeply.
"It's not hard to guess what Hu Yanming is thinking. Our tribe has suffered heavy losses, but it has not broken our bones after all. As long as we reach the peak of our barbarian body, we will get back the lost dignity sooner or later."
Jiang Dao talked lightly, his face became more rosy, his breaths were long and deep, and ugly scars gradually sprouted. The granulations became intertwined and slowly closed.
Seeing his aura becoming deeper and more unpredictable, Lou Jie's eyes narrowed slightly.
This is the aura of a Dacheng barbarian, a pure-blooded barbarian, almost the essence of an innate master, the true soul of the soul.
Pure-blooded barbarians are born with a powerful nature. They can become saints when they reach adulthood and can fight against real dragons and phoenixes in hand-to-hand blood.
Throughout the history of hundreds of tribes in ancient times, the barbarians were among the top ten or even the top five tyrannical races. They once held the power of heaven and earth and were regarded as the protagonists and overlords of the world.
"It seems that you are getting closer to that step."
Once the barbarian body is fully developed, its own humanity becomes weaker, the barbarian blood becomes pure and magical, and it will never be a barbarian again.
A faint sigh came from nowhere, slowly echoing in the wind and sand of the Gobi Desert, and disappeared along with the wind and sand.
…………
Tangyi, Yimen!
A famous soldier patrolled the city, in front of the city gate. Xun Shaoyu and a group of ministers watched as many chariots and horses were prepared, and the three thousand army gradually moved away.
Xun Shaoshang was riding on a dragon-scaled foal. The foal spit out sparks and dyed the surrounding area red.
Xun Shaoyu pretended to be reluctant to leave, holding the colt, and said reluctantly: "Brother can only stay for a few days, and his few words of instruction have made everyone think deeply, and Shaoyu has learned a lot."
Shao Xun said sadly: "Brothers of the clan, there is no need to feel sad. Our brother's fiefdom is only four or five hundred miles away from Tangyi. We are neighbors, so why bother to argue about it."
Xun Shaoyu wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes and sighed: "Brother's words are reasonable, but when Shaoyu thought about it, we are five hundred miles apart, and he wished he could give up this small town to serve as a minor official next to my brother."
When Xun Shaoshang heard this, his face showed emotion. After all, Xun Shaoyu's status was respected, and he had been more respectful in the past few days, which made Xun Shaoshang have a good impression on him. Now seeing his sincere feelings, Xun Shaoshang made Xun Shaoshang very happy.
He couldn't help but look sad.
"well……"
Xun Shaoshang sighed decisively and said: "My brother is an honest man. Although he has great talents in the world, he must be careful of the open and secret arrows behind his back. In this way, he will not be seriously injured and his family's fortune will be long."
After Xun Shaoshang finished speaking, his face was slightly sullen with some embarrassment. He no longer paid attention to Xun Shaoyu's words. He slapped the horse's butt and got off the black dragon colt. He immediately neighed and the horse's hooves galloped like flying.
Xun Shaoyu was thoughtful, looking at the figures hurried away, and whispered softly: "Behind... open and covert arrows?"
"It seems that this cheap brother knows something secret, but he can't reveal it directly."
However, Xun Shaoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when Xun Shao wounded three thousand troops and left.
How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?
Xun Shaoshang's three thousand soldiers were stationed in the west city of Tangyi. They had some unspeakable thoughts. This powerful army could break through Tangyi overnight.
This level of deterrence would be several times greater if Xun Shaoshang could strike alone.
These three thousand soldiers are all elite and elite. They are a strong army mobilized by Xun Taiwei personally from his own fiefdom. They should not be taken lightly.
I am afraid that a true master figure, who is invincible against a thousand armies, will fall in front of these three thousand soldiers.
Now that Xun Shaoshang has left on his own initiative, he has been relieved of a lot of worries.
Since three thousand soldiers were stationed outside the city, Xun Shaoyu never slept soundly for a day.
Even though he always has his so-called attitude in front of others, deep down in his heart, after many struggles, he doesn't want to be judged by outsiders.
Looking at the three thousand soldiers, their steps were as fast as the wind and their movements were as unified as one. Xun Shaoyu's eyes showed a trace of fiery passion.
What Tangyi lacks most now is strong soldiers and elite troops.
With the few young men in Tangyi, if he gathered all of them together, and there were 1,500 of them, he would be considered as a military force.
But Xun Shaoyu knew deeply that Tangyi's outsiders were powerful. And given Tangyi's current situation, it was unwise to place his safety on the whims of others.
Moreover, the remaining 700 cavalrymen who had gone through the war still had some remnants who were defeated, and the number of them mixed together was more than a thousand. If you want to build an army as strong as Shao Xun's 3,000 soldiers and armors, you can do it in a short time. Impossible.
Most of Xun Shaoyu's true form of Mang Niu, which he had worked so hard to cultivate, was disintegrated and almost lost its true form.
And a large army without military strength and morale is not as good as some refugee armies, which have to be a deterrent.
The smile on Xun Shaoyu's face gradually disappeared, and his heavy face showed neither sadness nor joy, as he watched the front line of the army go away.
"Fang Zhongxing,"
He spoke calmly, and a hundred generals beside him immediately jumped out of the crowd.
Fang Zhongxing, wearing armor, knelt on one knee, shaking the leaves of his armor, and said: "Doctor,"
Xun Shaoyu glanced at Fang Zhongxing lightly, seemed to think about it for a while, and said: "You performed really well in the battle in the valley. You were brave and strong, and you fought hard without retreating..."
"From today on, you are my commander-in-chief."
The position of Sima is the mainstay of the military and the real power.
Generally, the hundred generals are the Xing Sima, then the Yu Sima, the Military Sima, the Junior Sima, and finally the Great Sima who commands hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Lu Kingdom.
This Fang Zhongxing was one of the fifty cavalry who followed Xun Shaoyu and charged directly at the barbarians, and he was also one of the few who survived.
Because his martial arts strength is not weak, he is an old face that he has always followed, his affection is extraordinary, and he is worthy of Xun Shaoyu's trust.
But whether this child's ability can be realized is still in doubt.
Therefore, Xun Shaoyu had to use him more seriously, or even use him extensively, in order to see the true nature of this person.
Moreover, the position of Yu Sima is more than simple. He directly surpassed the position of Sima, and he has already received many generous rewards. ( Yuanshi Heaven )
