On the morning of March 10, 1546, in a conference room in Jiedu Mansion in Luoshan City, the capital of Luoshan Town, Cheng Jun, the envoy of Luoshan Jiedu, said in a deep voice to the other four Jiedu envoys of the Northwest Army: "According to reliable information, the five countries of Golden Lion, Red Tiger, Black Bear, Silver Wolf, and Flying Leopard have sent representatives to prepare for peace talks with the Zhou family.

Although it is a little unbelievable, in this war between the Zhou family and the six beast countries, the Zhou family is the final winner. ”

After the integration of the five feudal towns in the northwest region, the Northwest Army formed has undergone another round of expansion, bringing the total strength to more than 6 million, with 200 infantry divisions and 320 independent brigades under its jurisdiction.

According to the establishment formulated by the General Headquarters of the Northwest Army, the infantry division of the Northwest Army is about 20,000 people, and the independent brigade is about 5,000 to 8,000 people.

In addition, thanks to the joint pressure of the five Jiedu envoys, all the military power in the hands of other families in the five feudal towns was confiscated by the general headquarters of the Northwest Army.

The command of the General Headquarters of the Northwest Army is jointly controlled by these five jiedu envoys.

Of course, because the composition of the Northwest Army was too complicated, the factional struggle within the Northwest Army was very fierce, and the military power of 200 infantry divisions and 320 independent brigades was actually divided among the five jiedu envoys.

However, only in terms of the number of land forces, the Northwest Army, with an army of more than 6 million, is second only to the Zhou army among the six major forces of the Han and Tang Empires.

Tang Fengxiang, the envoy of the Botai Festival, immediately frowned and asked Cheng Jun: "Cheng Dashuai, you are in a hurry to find all of us, not just to tell us a few people, the news that the Zhou family is going to negotiate peace with those five beast countries, right?"

The news was no secret and was reported in newspapers everywhere. ”

Luo Shan Jiedu made Cheng Jun say slowly: "You must know very well that once the Zhou family ends the war with the six beast countries, the Zhou family will definitely transfer their energy to the country.

At present, the Zhou family's territory in the Eastern Continent has been blocked into two pieces by our five towns in the northwest, so if the Zhou family wants to do something in the country, our five towns in the northwest are likely to bear the brunt. ”

Fang Chengen then sighed and said, "The Zhou family is really a little too fierce, and now they are almost all about to capture the territory of the Barbarian Bull Empire in this world.

and forced the other five beast countries to take the initiative to find the Zhou family to negotiate peace.

If the Zhou family wants to make a move against our five towns in the northwest, with the strength of our Northwest Army, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist the attack of the Zhou family's army. ”

Liang Lichen, the envoy of Xiangxi Jiedu, also sighed and said: "Now the army strength of the Zhou family is as high as tens of millions, and the weapons and equipment are also stronger than our Northwest Army.

Moreover, the Zhou army is also equipped with tanks and fighters, if our Northwest Army really starts a war with the Zhou army, our Northwest Army will definitely be defeated. ”

Tang Fengxiang, the envoy of Botai Festival, said loudly at this time: "Why should we grow the ambition of others and destroy our own prestige.

The Zhou family army is very strong, but our Northwest Army is not papery, not to mention the other four forces of the Han and Tang Empires, presumably they should know the truth of cold lips and teeth. ”

Just as Tang Fengxiang's words fell, a person suddenly pushed open the door of the conference room and walked in.

"Tang Dashuai, if the six beast nations are united, our Zhou family can win the battle.

Even if the Northwest Army, the Imperial Forbidden Army, the Southeast Army, the Shuodong Army and the Shuonan Army are united, will they be able to resist the attack of our Zhou Army?

Tang Dashuai is inevitably too optimistic! ”

Botai Jiedu made Tang Fengxiang see the person who came in, and immediately stood up from the chair, "Fox Er! How did you end up here? ”

Then Tang Fengxiang's right hand was immediately placed on the holster on his waist, and he turned his head to Cheng Jun, the envoy of Luoshan Jiedu, and asked, "Cheng Dashuai, what's going on?"

Don't tell me, you don't know what the identity of the fox is! ”

With the appearance of Hu Er, Luo Shan Jiedu made Cheng Jun behave very calmly, "Tang Dashuai, don't get excited, there are some things, I think it's best to solve them peacefully."

If it starts, the five Northwest armies will not be able to defeat the Zhou family's army! ”

Fang Chengen, the envoy of the Fuping Festival, Liang Lichen of the Xiangxi Festival, and Wen Changqing, the envoy of the Ding'an Festival, saw the appearance of Hu Er, although they all showed surprised expressions, but they were not as excited as the Botai Festival made Tang Fengxiang Xian.

Fox Er naturally walked to the conference table, in front of an empty chair, sat down, and crossed Erlang's legs.

"Tang Dashuai, I don't know if you can reconsider my proposal from a few months ago?"

Botai Jiedu made Tang Fengxiang snort coldly, did not answer Hu Er, and continued to ask Cheng Jun, the envoy of Luoshan Jiedu: "Is Cheng Dashuai willing to accept the pension given by the Zhou family?" ”

Luo Shan Jie Du made Cheng Jun shrug his shoulders and said, "Tang Dashuai, 300 million silver coins is a lot."

As the saying goes, those who know the times are the best men.

Even the alliance of the six orc nations was defeated, why did our Northwest Army do that act of hitting a stone with an egg? ”

Tang Fengxiang, the envoy of Botai Jiedu, found that the other three Jiedu envoys were very calm at this time, and couldn't help gritting his teeth and asking: "Could it be that Fang Dashuai, Liang Dashuai, and Wen Dashuai are all ready to accept the pension given by the Zhou family?" ”

Wen Changqing, the envoy of Ding'an Jiedu, immediately asked Hu Er in a deep voice: "Mr. Fox, what do you mean by appearing here today?" ”

Hu Er said with a smile: "Our Zhou family has given a pension of 300 million silver coins to the five marshals here, each or each family, hoping that the five marshals can lead the Northwest Army to return to our Zhou family."

Now only Cheng Dashuai of Luoshan Town has clearly expressed his willingness to accept 300 million silver coins, and Tang Dashuai of Botai Town has rejected the kindness of our Zhou family.

And Fang Dashuai, Liang Dashuai, and Wen Dashuai didn't express their position for a long time, so I entrusted Cheng Dashuai to invite the four of them over, and everyone sat together and discussed it again.

I'm here today, but it's very sincere. ”

Botai Jiedu made Tang Fengxiang slam the table hard, "Cheng Jun, Hu Er, even if Lao Tzu dies in Luoshan City today, he will never let your conspiracy succeed!"

And even if Lao Tzu is dead, the Zhou family doesn't want to annex Botai Town! ”

Botai Jiedu made Tang Fengxiang come to Luoshan City for a meeting this time, and he only brought 1 guard regiment in a hurry, but Luoshan City is the old nest of Cheng Jun, the envoy of Luoshan Jiedu, if Cheng Jun wants to attack Tang Fengxiang, Tang Fengxiang will not be able to leave Luoshan City alive, and he will not even be able to leave Luoshan Jiedu Mansion alive.

Hu Er said with a smile: "Tang Dashuai, don't be so angry.

I specially invited a lobbyist for Tang Dashuai today, come in! ”

As soon as Hu Er's words fell, an officer of the Northwest Army wearing the rank of lieutenant general pushed the door and walked in.

When Tang Fengxiang saw the lieutenant general of the Northwest Army, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Ruifeng, why are you here?" ”

It turned out that this lieutenant general of the Northwest Army in his thirties was Tang Ruifeng, the eldest son of Tang Fengxiang, the envoy of Botai Jiedu.

"Father, today's Zhou family is no longer something that our Northwest Army can compete with.

For the sake of our entire family, I discussed with a few younger brothers and decided to accept the 300 million silver coin pension given by the Zhou family and hand over all the troops in the hands of our Tang family. ”

Botai Jiedu made Tang Fengxiang furious when he heard this, and directly took out a pistol and aimed it at the head of his eldest son Tang Ruifeng, "Rebel, believe it or not, Lao Tzu killed you!" ”

Tang Ruifeng said with a wry smile: "Father, the bullet in your pistol has been secretly taken away. ”

Hu Er said at this time: "Tang Dashuai, you are not as wise as your sons.

The pension of 300 million silver coins is enough to ensure the glory and wealth of your Tang family for several generations, so why do you have to drill the horns!

To tell you the truth, even without the cooperation of your five jiedu envoys, it would be easy for our Zhou family to annex the remaining five feudal towns in the northwest region.

More than half of the divisional-level and brigade-level officers of the 200 infantry divisions and 320 independent brigades of the Northwest Army have received money from our Zhou family.

If the two sides start fighting, at least half of the troops of the Northwest Army will defect, and I am not exaggerating at all! ”

After Hu Er finished saying this, he swept his eyes at Fang Chengen, the envoy of the Fuping Jiedu, Liang Lichen, the envoy of the Xiangxi Jiedu, and Wen Changqing, the envoy of the Ding'an Jiedu.

Botai Jiedu made Tang Fengxiang withdraw the magazine of the pistol, and found that there were no bullets, so he angrily slammed the pistol on the ground, "Who stole the bullets from Ben Shuai's pistol?" ”

"Father, within our Northwest Army, there are too many people who have been bought by the Zhou family.

The person who stole your pistol bullet was actually Mr. Fox looking for him. ”

When Tang Fengxiang heard this, he immediately sat back in his chair with some frustration, "Your Zhou family is too despicable, and you will only use money to buy people."

Have the ability, do it with real knives and guns! ”

Hu Er said with a smile: "Tang Dashuai, everyone is from the Han and Tang Dynasties, why kill each other?"

It is precisely because our Zhou family does not want to see the internal friction of the Han and Tang Empires that we are willing to spend a large amount of money to peacefully solve the problem of the five feudal towns in the northwest region.

In addition, the reason why our Zhou family was able to fight against the six beast countries on their own was that the biggest reliance was on two words - more money! ”

Tang Ruifeng walked directly to Tang Fengxiang's side, picked up the pistol on the ground, and handed it to Tang Fengxiang with both hands, "Father, our brothers are doing this to save our entire family.

Even a military power like the Barbarian Bull Empire is about to be driven back to the other side of the node in different time and space by the Zhou family's army, and if our Tang family chooses to confront the Zhou family, we will definitely not be able to escape the result of destruction in the end. ”

Tang Fengxiang, the envoy of the Botai Festival, said unwillingly: "You rebel, is our Tang family's foundation for hundreds of years only worth 300 million silver coins!" ”

"Father, 300 million silver coins is already a lot."

"What are you going to do with me next?"

"What my father said is serious, where can I talk about dealing with it!

I will take my father back to Botai Jiedu Mansion, but my father will not be able to leave Jiedu Mansion for the time being until the Northwest Army completes the change of banner. ”

Hu Er didn't pay attention to what Tang Fengxiang and Tang Ruifeng's father and son were talking about, but turned his head and asked Fang Chengen, the envoy of the Fuping Festival, Liang Lichen, the envoy of the Xiangxi Festival, and Wen Changqing, the envoy of the Ding'an Festival: "Fang Dashuai, Liang Dashuai, Wen Dashuai, how are you thinking about it now?" ”

The three festival envoys looked at each other, and they all showed helpless expressions.

Fang Chengen, the envoy of the Fuping Festival, first said: "Mr. Fox, Ben Shuai is willing to accept the 300 million silver coin pension given by the Zhou family. ”

"Ben Shuai is also willing to accept the 300 million silver coins."

"This commander supports the Northwest Army to change banners!"

Just when several beast countries were preparing to negotiate peace with the Zhou family, a major event suddenly occurred in the territory of the Han and Tang Empires.

Among the Northwest Army of the Han and Tang Empires, Tang Fengxiang, Fang Chengen, Fang Chengen, Liang Lichen, Liang Lichen, Wen Changqing, Wen Changqing, and Cheng Jun, the envoy of Luoshan Jiedu, jointly announced that the Northwest Army changed its banner on April 1, 1546, and then came under the jurisdiction of the Southwest Town Shoufu.

In this way, the six towns in the northwest and six towns in the southwest of the original Han and Tang Empires have become the territory of the Zhou family, which means that the Zhou family has accounted for half of the original Han and Tang Empire.

In the Forbidden Army's Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in Tiansheng City, the capital of the Han and Tang Empires, Zhao Rongguang slammed his beloved teapot to the ground, "The 6 million army surrendered to the Zhou family without firing a shot, a group of soft eggs!" ”

Then Zhao Rongguang transferred his anger to Zhao Shicong, the commander of the embroidery table, "What are you doing with the embroidery table!"

The imperial court gives you so much money every year for the embroidery table, but as a result, the five feudal towns in the northwest were annexed by the Zhou family without much effort.

Without the containment of the Northwest Army, the future days of the imperial court will become more and more difficult. ”

Zhao Shicong, the commander of the embroidery table, said bitterly: "Father, although our embroidery platform has also made some efforts to the Northwest Army, compared with the Zhou family, it can only be regarded as a small thing.

According to the information we have at the embroidery table, the Zhou family gave the five jiedu envoys of the Northwest Army this time, each of them is 300 million silver coins, and the Zhou family may have to spend almost 1 billion silver coins to buy those division commanders and brigade commanders of the Northwest Army.

The Northwest Army was able to change banners, but it was completely smashed by the Zhou family's money! ”

Zhao Shicong's words made Zhao Rongguang's anger disappear suddenly, "Your embroidery table must closely monitor all the generals of the forbidden army, but if you find that someone has received money from the Zhou family, you will immediately take decisive measures." ”

Zhao Shicong hurriedly said: "Father, rest assured, our embroidery table has eyeliner next to every division commander, brigade commander, and regiment commander of the forbidden army, if anyone dares to betray my father and the court, our embroidery table will definitely be able to pull him out!" ”

"Alas, now even those beast countries have been forced by the Zhou family to prepare for peace.

If the Zhou family wants to attack the country, the imperial court will be in danger. ”

Zhao Shicong hesitated, "Father, do we have to leave a way back?" ”

"The way back? Where can my Zhao family have a way back now! ”

The son born to a concubine of Zhao Shicong has been carried into the palace and has become the prince born to Empress Zhao Yan.

And the prince named Ouyang Jing, at the request of Zhao Rongguang, the governor of the forbidden army, has been officially canonized as the crown prince of the Han and Tang Empires.

"Father, although the strength of the forbidden army is as high as 4 million, it is far worse than the Zhou family's army, which has tens of millions.

I'm worried about ......"

Before Zhao Shicong's words were finished, he was interrupted by Zhao Rongguang, "No matter whether you can fight or not, the imperial court can't compromise with the Zhou family."

Don't forget, the grudge between your sister and Zhou Rui! ”
