Xu Jingyang had already changed into a new robe, and when he appeared in front of Li Shaoyang at this time, the whole person was full of energy, and he was no longer as decadent as a few days ago. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Shaoyang nodded and motioned for him to sit down.

Xu Jingyang sat down slowly, and the two of them silently sipped tea.

Li Shaoyang is not a deep person, but more often, he has a more introverted personality, even in this world, there is a sense of loneliness.

And Xu Jingyang is also a quiet person who does not speak easily.

The two of them were silent in this room for a long time, because at this moment, there was no need to say a lot of things about each other. Since Xu Jingyang agreed to stay, as a strategist, when he came to see the lord, he must have already thought about what he wanted to say in his heart.

Xu Jingyang put down the teacup and said in a deep voice: "Lord, now that you have subdued the cities of the entire Eastern Mountain Range, what are your plans next?" ”

"There are no further plans for the time being, let's take one step at a time." Li Shaoyang glanced at him: "Mr. Xu, do you think I can defend these cities?" ”

This question is very strange, if it is to ask Dongfang Yu, he must be at a loss, he does not know what Li Shaoyang means. But Xu Jingyang is different, he has thought about many things repeatedly in the past few days.

So he immediately said: "The Lord Monarch has opened a precedent for fighting for the city, and the delicate balance between the imperial counties has been broken, if it was before, it may be because it is too barren and close to the border of the demon race, this place is not of interest to everyone, but now it is different." ”

He muttered: "Now that there is a triple spiritual rain of watering, the eastern land is already a treasure land with sufficient spiritual energy, you took the city by force, then others naturally have this idea." ”

Li Shaoyang nodded silently.

Xu Jingyang took out a jade talisman from his sleeve, and after smashing it, a complete map appeared on the table.

He stretched out his hand and nodded at Southwest County, and then pointed at Zhongzhou County: "The person I am concerned about is not in Southwest County, but in Zhongzhou County." ”

"Those people in the southwest county are short-sighted, as long as they hold the rich land of the plains in their west, they will be satisfied, and the lord you are now the number one master in the southwest, with this deterrence, they don't dare to act rashly, but Zhongzhou County is different."

Li Shaoyang got up and looked at the map, this is the map of the entire empire, the north is Hanzhou County, Yongzhou County two major regions, the central is the imperial capital, the imperial capital is left and right, the west is Chuanzhou County, and the east is Qingzhou County.

To the south, between Zhongzhou County and Southwest County, the largest ethereal mountain in the empire can be seen on the map, while Yangzhou County in the southeast is the richest place in the empire.

Xu Jingyang pointed his finger on Zhongzhou County and nodded: "The southern family of Zhongzhou County under the command of Zhennan Hou is your biggest threat now, Zhongzhou is based on the Hengduan Mountain Range as the line, the imperial capital in the north, and the northern mountain range in the south, all the territories of the southern family are the land of mountains, but the monk is the place with the most land of the six states of the empire." ”

Li Shaoyang looked at the map with interest: "The land is thin and the people are wide, and if the southern family led by Zhennan Hou wants to expand, it can only go in three directions, the northwest into Sichuan, the southeast into Yang, and directly through the northern mountain range to enter our territory." ”

Xu Jingyang glanced at him in surprise, but he didn't expect Li Shaoyang to have this kind of understanding just by looking at the map.

Xu Jingyang said in a deep voice at this time: "Originally, our territory was the most unsightly for Zhennanhou, but now I am afraid that it is what he wants the most, we only have four cities, and the real monks are only 40,000, excluding those who are weak in cultivation and can really fight, the monks above the combined realm add up to only 10,000, and you have not completely subdued them yet." ”

"So if Zhennanhou really makes a move, we have no power to fight back." Li Shaoyang said.

Xu Jingyang nodded: "This is certain, so even if you don't kill the envoy sent by Zhennanhou to contact Zhao Tianchen, the southern Zhao family will not let go of here." ”

He picked up the teacup: "When I was in Zhao Tianchen's staff, the last idea I gave him was to open the city gate widely, welcome the army of Zhennan Hou into Ziri City, and then in the name of Ziri City, unify the southwest county, but Zhao Tianchen was unwilling, he just wanted to keep his small place." ”

Li Shaoyang smiled: "Then what advice do you have for me now?" ”

Xu Jingyang looked at him seriously: "This is a suppression of strength, it is not possible to resist hard, but Zhennanhou will not do it so quickly, he also has to observe the next change in Southwest County, it is best if you and those monks in the west of Hengdao Mountain are inspired by contradictions, and fight directly, then he can get our territory without bloodshed." ”

Li Shaoyang didn't speak.

Xu Jingyang continued: "But we can't wait for death, so I want to ask the Lord Monarch to give me 50 million square spirit jade, 100 pieces of enlightening magic weapons, and 60 carts of various materials, I will take these things to Zhongzhou County and fight for you for three years." ”

After Xu Jingyang finished speaking, he was a little uneasy.

He didn't know what Li Shaoyang would think, if it was Zhao Tianchen, I was afraid that he would have to turn his face directly at this time.

If you want so many things, you have to give him this strategist, and even let him go to Zhongzhou County.

But Li Shaoyang decided without hesitation: "Enlarge this map, leave me a copy, you will set off tomorrow, I will let Dongfang prepare 50 million square spirit jade and materials tonight, as for the magic weapon, it is not so fast, ten days later, I will let the disciples of the Mingshen Sect escort the magic weapon you need and hand it over to you." ”

Xu Jingyang took a breath: "Lord, don't you ask me what I want to do?" ”

Li Shaoyang smiled: "You want to buy people, the people around Zhennanhou?" ”

Xu Jingyang also smiled: "Yes, Zhennan Hou Zhao family, the most talkable person around the Hou Ye is his third lady, the relationship is complicated, but this woman and the family behind her are very greedy, with these things, I can bribe the third lady and let her blow the pillow wind, it is expected that within a month, there will be results." ”

"Is 50 million square spirit jade enough?" Li Shaoyang asked directly.

He had long been alert to the threat of Zhongzhou County, and on the day he took Purple Sun City, Shangguan Hongyu of Red Moon City in the north received news that on the side of the Northern Mountain Range, a large number of monks had appeared, but they had not crossed the boundary of the Northern Mountain Range.

Xu Jingyang nodded and said that the spirit jade was enough, then he put away the map, and suddenly asked again: "Lord, do you want to be the guardian of a county, or do you want to be the overlord of a party?" ”

"Does it make a difference?" Li Shaoyang said with a smile.

"There is a difference, the guard of a county, that is, the land is good, the people's livelihood is cared for, the emperor is the emperor, and the monks in the county can practice in peace."

Xu Jingyang paused as he spoke, and then said: "The overlord of one side is to gather troops and armor, recuperate, serve the emperor's feelings, watch the changes in the world, wait for the opportunity to rise, and become a hegemon!" ”

"It's a bit early to say that." Li Shaoyang said flatly.

"It's not early, it's just the right time, if the lord only wants to be the guardian of a county, then the resources you have at your disposal now, plus me and Dongfang Yu, one inside and one outside, are enough." Xu Jingyang said solemnly.

Li Shaoyang immediately said: "Then what if I want to be the lord of the empire?" ”

Lord of the Empire! This sentence shocked Xu Jingyang's body, his eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "Then the lord needs a better strategist, this strategist is different from a strategist, some can seek a city, some can seek a county, and some can seek a country." ”

He pointed to himself: "I, Xu Jingyang, am confident that I can seek a county, and Dongfang Yu, he can seek a city, but the lord wants to seek a country, and neither of us can do it." ”

Li Shaoyang suddenly became serious: "Then who can seek a country, please Mr. Xu speak up." ”

Xu Jingyang got up and walked back and forth, and finally said: "There is a place called Lianshan Star Palace, which is a place that only a few people in the empire know, and there is only one person in Lianshan Star Palace per generation, and that person is a talent for seeking the country." ”

Lianshan Star Palace...... Li Shaoyang has been in this world for a long time and has never heard of it!
