Dang! Dang! Dang! From in front of the Huayang Palace, the Huanglu Bell rang seventy-two times, and the melodious and far-reaching bells echoed in every corner of the Lu Kingdom's Yeting.
In the sky over Quanpu, the capital of the country, the sound of bells rang out one after another in an unhurried manner.
After Xun Shaoyu led his army to cross Qingxiakou, it only took three days to march quickly, and hundreds of thousands of troops entered the capital city.
Naturally, there were dozens of scouts and Qingqi before this, constantly going back and forth between the capital and the front line, informing the government and the public about the military situation on the front line, and the people of Lu State were all cheering.
Hundreds of thousands of people in the capital were eagerly waiting to see the appearance of Lu's army.
This is a grand event since the founding of the Lu State. For the Lu State, which has been in existence for 800 years, the attack on the capital of the Song State is not only to cheer up the tens of millions of Lu people, but also has extraordinary significance.
The country is truly taking a solid step towards eternal hegemony.
At this moment, incense burners were set up on the main roads between Quanpu one by one. Three incense sticks were burning in the stoves, and green smoke curled up. People from Guizhou Province on both sides of the main road stood on both sides of the main road, and their cheers shook the place.
The people of Guizhou shouted loudly: "Ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories!!"
Hundreds of thousands of troops poured into the capital and dispersed into the main roads of all parties one by one. Ten men were horizontal and ten were vertical, just like war fortresses. The military power from top to bottom was solemn.
This move is to declare the military prestige. The new victory of the army must have its prestige. Military prestige is the prestige of the country!
The hundreds of thousands of troops were in the midst of a new victory. Their morale was sharp and their fighting spirit was eye-catching.
"Wonderful victory, ten thousand victory, ten thousand victory!!"
Witnessing the power of Lu Guojun's army, hundreds of thousands of people in Guizhou cheered.
Dang! Bang! Bang!
The four palace gates in Yeting were wide open, and the heavy palace doors were opened one by one. A famous minister and general dressed in court clothes, wearing official boots, and holding a gold and jade board in his hand, filed into the palace gate along the main road.
These hundreds of important ministers and generals, followed by thousands of people with meritorious deeds, stood from the gate of Huayang Palace along the main road.
These are all the military exploits that were achieved in the Battle of Luzon. They are the backbone of the entire Lu State. They can be called one of the cornerstones of the great prosperity of the Lu State. They played an important role in the war against Song.
"Welcome to you, Your Majesty!"
"Welcome to you, Your Majesty!"
"Welcome to you, Your Majesty!"
The ministers leaned over and nodded, saying: "...Ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand years!!"
"Ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand years!!" Eight thousand sturdy Euphorbia warriors, wearing thick armor, stood on both sides of the main road in Yeting with uniform steps.
Each of them is tall and burly, like an angry-eyed Vajra. Their strong and solid bodies are arranged in a row, just like fortresses filled with copper and iron.
"My lords, please excuse me!"
The ministers in the Huayang Palace paid homage to the emperor. Xun Shaoyu, wearing a imperial robe and a Wu sword on his waist, sat high on the throne, overlooking the ministers below, and pressed his palms.
After Xun Shaoyu entered the city with his army, he simply washed himself, put on a princely crown and court uniform, and held a large court meeting directly in Huayang Palace.
After years of accumulation, Xun Shaoyu was able to use his authority in the Lu State. Whenever he gave an order, all important ministers and generals would obey him, and no one dared to slack off. This is the majesty of a monarch.
The grand master heard that Yuanming stepped forward and said: "The prince is attacking the Song Dynasty to promote the prestige of our country of Lu. The old minister is here to congratulate the prince and the country of Lu. Hegemony can be expected!"
All the ministers echoed, kowtowed and shouted in unison: "My ministers, congratulations to the king and to the country of Lu, we can expect hegemony!!"
In the Shangyang Dynasty, Zhu Yuexing and other important ministers of the Lu State were very excited. They had personally experienced the Lu State and became stronger step by step. These important officials of the Lu State were also proud of you.
Moreover, as one of the princes of the Nine Provinces, Lu State enjoys the luck of humanity. As the most important part of the State of Lu, these important ministers of the State of Lu naturally enjoy some luck of humanity.
It has immeasurable benefits both for yourself and for future generations.
This is a matter of gaining both fame and fortune. It is no wonder that with the cultivation of these important ministers, it is difficult to control their own moods, and they are full of joy and anger.
As the Lu State became stronger and stronger, these important ministers and generals also unknowingly improved their spiritual practice due to their luck.
So much so that today, the innate master has the hope of a great master, and the great master has the hope of a martial arts saint and a wandering immortal on earth.
Xun Shaoyu slapped the table and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, we can expect a great hegemony. This sounds encouraging, I like to hear it!"
He chuckled softly, then suddenly changed his voice and said: "However, it's enough to just listen to such empty talk. We, the monarchs and ministers, must not take it seriously. When it comes time to truly compete for hegemony, we still have to rely on our hard power."
"This time, during these days when I went on the expedition, it was all thanks to the concerted efforts of all the ministers to keep the government and the public at bay, so that I have no worries. I would like to thank you all." Xun Shaoyu looked around at the ministers and smiled slightly.
Bow your hands and salute.
The ministers once again bent down and kowtowed, and said in unison: "This is the duty of ministers. Your Majesty's words are true!"
Xun Shaoyu's face was slightly solemn, and he said calmly: "Don't say serious, don't say serious. If you don't stabilize the rear, I won't be able to lead the army, and we will fight the Song Dynasty in a bloody battle."
"This great victory of the Song Dynasty, thanks to your mediation, at least 40% of the success was achieved!"
The ministers bowed to each other and heard Yuanming's blunt words, saying: "Your Majesty is like this, I am ashamed..."
Seeing Wen Yuanming's respectful demeanor, Xun Shaoyu praised: "Old Taishi is loyal to the public body and sets an example for all ministers. If all the ministers in our Lu State are like Old Taishi, Lu State's hegemony is in sight."
Xun Shaoyu glanced at the ministers and said, "Where is Taifu Shangyang?"
Shangyang came out of the queue and said, "I'm here!"
Xun Shaoyu asked: "How did you deal with that evil dragon? Has it been put to good use?"
Shangyang bowed to the court and replied: "Your Majesty, I have ordered many masters of the soul enshrined in the court to collect the blood of dragon corpses day and night. The dragon corpse in the wilderness has been ordered to wait for me.
All collected. Except for some precious materials, which were handed over to the inner treasury, all were used on the [Wu Hui Soldiers] and [Black Water Warriors] according to the Lord's instructions."
"These two elites who have fought hundreds of battles have been tempered by dragon blood and have the foundation in the past. They are about to be promoted to Taoist soldiers. In three or two years at most, or one or two years at least, my Lu country will be able to produce two more Taoist soldiers.
"
[Black Water Warriors] and [Wu Hui Martial Soldiers] are both elites in hundreds of battles. They have already reached the level of Taoist soldiers. Now there is another evil dragon who has practiced the Taoist prototype level for thousands of years. As two
The resources for the elites of the Great Hundred Wars.
As long as the two hundred battle elites completely digest these qualifications, it will not be difficult to step into the Taoist level.
Xun Shaoyu nodded and said: "In this way, our Lu State will have three major national defense soldiers. This is the first time in Yuzhou!"
Yuzhou is located in the south of Jiuzhou, and among the princes of Jiuzhou, it is the weakest.
The princes who had several Dao soldiers in other big states may have a lot of people there. But in a barren land like Yuzhou, Xun Shaoyu's Lu State was the first powerful country to have three Dao soldiers stationed there.
The hegemonic power in Yuzhou may only be at the top level compared to other major states, but it can never be said to be superior to the others.
Zhu Yuxing spoke bluntly and remonstrated: "Your Majesty, it is gratifying to say that our Lu Kingdom will now have three avenues of troops. However, to maintain the consumption of three avenues of troops, I am afraid that our Lu Kingdom's current strength will not be enough."
Each of the armored soldiers in a Taoist army is at least a master of martial arts who can cut off hair and cleanse marrow. They have the power of several mammoths. They can eat several stones of meat in a day and consume mountains and seas in one day. It is impossible for a small country to do so in a leisurely way.
Can't be consumed.
Zhu Yuxing said: "I don't know what the princes are thinking, but this attack on Jie and Song Dynasties is a great opportunity for my country, Lu. If we can annex the territory of the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop, we will no longer have any pressure to maintain the troops of the three avenues."
This statement expressed the feelings of the ministers of the Lu State. The Song State was now defeated steadily, and even the Daxia Dragon Bird Sword was smashed by Xun Shaoyu.
The unprecedented weakening of Song State's power was a great opportunity for Lu State to annex Song State.
Several generals said in unison: "The princes and ministers are willing to lead the army to enter the Song Dynasty again!"
"I am waiting, I am willing to lead the army to enter the Song Dynasty again!" The eyes of the ministers flickered, revealing a fiery look.
Which of these important ministers did not covet the territory of the Song Dynasty?
This is an opportunity to seal the land and ennoble the king. There is no big war. Even though these important ministers have the ambition to open up the land, there is nothing they can do.
Who doesn't want to be granted a title of land, a king, and a glorious life? This is a bright opportunity.
What's more, the Song Dynasty today is like meat on a felt board, letting people slaughter it. Such an opportunity is right in front of them, and no one will give up lightly.
Facing the ministers in the palace, Xun Shaoyu shook his head gently and said: "I know that you must all have some doubts in your hearts at this time. The great situation of the Song Dynasty is right in front of you, but I am returning to the court at this time.
, handing over the opportunity to the four countries of Dongguo and sitting back and watching the four countries of Dongguo enjoy great benefits, this will be the loss of Lu State from now on."
"But, why don't you think about it carefully, can the four countries of Dongguo really defeat the Song Dynasty easily?"
"The ten thousand years of Song Dynasty's foundation cannot be completely exhausted by one or two failures!"
He said quietly: "I have received a report from the scouts. Sijiu, the prince of Song Dynasty, is guarding the northern border of Song Dynasty. He still has a broken [Xuanniao Heavenly Soldier] under his command, and his combat power is very impressive."
"However, a incomplete Taoist army, which is also a Taoist army, cannot defeat Sijiu just by itself. It is not an easy task for the four countries of Dongguo to swallow up the Song Dynasty.
"
"I understand," Wen Yuanming said with a hint of surprise on his face. The eyes of several important ministers touched each other, and the more thoughtful ones also gained some understanding.
"Sure enough, the prince is killing someone with a borrowed sword, and killing without blood!" These important ministers had the same idea, and they all thought of the key to Xun Shaoyu's arrangement.
After all, the Song Dynasty was not as vulnerable as imagined, and it still had an incomplete Taoist army.
Xun Shaoyu's move was to make the four countries in the East and Guo think they were sure of victory, and then engage in a fierce battle with the Song army in the north, causing both sides to lose.
Let the hundreds of thousands of troops from the four kingdoms of Dongguo be trapped in the battlefield of Song Dynasty, and continue to 'bleed' themselves.
