Because they all knew that since the matter of the Xiao Cavalry Camp earlier had been handed over to Shangguan Zhongxin to handle it with full authority, that person from the Qi King Shangguan Qingyun would definitely not easily participate in it again.

This is the consistent style of King Qi: on the one hand, bold delegation of power and absolute trust; On the one hand, strict requirements, clear rewards and punishments.

After everyone sat down, Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said in a deep voice: "An urgent secret letter came from the palace today, ostensibly in the name of Chief Manager Li, but in fact it was a letter written by Emperor Tianwei himself. ”

Shangguan Zhongxin said: "What's the situation, could it be that something big happened in Zhongdu?" ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "You still don't need to worry too much about this, this matter has nothing to do with the Zhongdu Jingshi." ”

Lu Weixin said: "That's very good. To tell you the truth, when I first received this urgent secret letter in the morning, I was really startled, and I thought it was the capital of the capital, or even something important suddenly happened in the palace. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "Actually, it's no wonder, after all, that Chief Manager Li rarely has any correspondence with our Qi Palace, let alone any urgent secret letters." What's more, not long ago, my father, you just came back from Jingshi, and there shouldn't be anything important. ”

Shangguan Zhongxin said: "What exactly is it talking about? ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "A month ago, Huo Xiaotian from Yungu Cottage actually robbed the overseas Gu Luo Kingdom to make a pilgrimage to our Celestial Empire's mission. You know, this is the first tribute from the ancient Luo Kingdom since the founding of our Celestial Empire. This time it's okay, the mission of the ancient Luo Kingdom passed through the Bohai County of the East China Sea Evil God, and there was no accident, but it happened to the territory of our Celestial Empire. ”

Shangguan Zhongxin said: "What do you mean, Emperor Tianwei wants us to send troops from the Qi Palace, go and level that Yungu Cottage, and then escort that Huo Xiaotian and other people and what envoys to the Jingshi?" ”

Lu Weixin said: "This doesn't seem right, Lord Wang, that Yungu Mountain does not belong to our Qi Land, but is on the territory of Xiahou Wangye's Yan Land." ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "Yes, what Wei Xin said is extremely true. According to our previous practice, it is indeed difficult for our Qi Wangfu to interfere in the affairs of Xiahou Wangye Yandi. ”

It turns out that the Yungu Mountain, where this Yungu cottage is located, has a very special location. It is located at the intersection of the Central Plains and Qi and Yan Land, and even has a certain border with Bohai County, which is the evil god of the East China Sea, which is a standard "four regardless" intermediate region.

However, according to the administrative division of the Celestial Empire, since this Yungu cottage is indeed located on the territory of Yandi, it is natural to assign this Yungu Mountain to Yandi.

In addition, there is an extremely important reason, that is, the old owner of Yungu Cottage in the past, known as the "impregnable" Huo Heren, this person is extremely unusual.

It is said that he is not only the eldest brother of the current Yan King Xiahou Zhengjin, but also once saved the life of the current Holy Emperor Tianwei. Of course, it is precisely because of the special relationship between these two layers that the status of Yungu cottage is not trivial.

For a long time, especially after the Celestial Empire settled the world, this Yungu cottage has always been like this, and it has existed independently in this sensitive area of the so-called four regardless.

Fortunately, although people call themselves Yungu Cottage, they rarely do those things that rob houses, and they are basically self-sufficient on weekdays.

Even if they occasionally go down the mountain to plunder, they are also specially aimed at dealing with those powerful bullies who are notorious for being rich and unkind, and they can really be called "killing the rich and helping the poor, and doing the right thing for heaven".

In addition, they never had any major conflicts with the garrisons in various places, and even if there were occasional small frictions, they could be quickly explained and never cause any major trouble.

As a result, due to the relationship between all aspects, whether it is the Central Plains region, Yandi, Qidi, and even Bohai County, they get along very well with them.

At least, in the last five or six years, I really haven't heard of any major incidents in their Yungu cottage.

At this moment, Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said lightly: "I can't hide it, it is precisely because of the particularity of this Yungu cottage that Emperor Tianwei gave me this secret decree." It is said that the deadline is two months, and we must properly handle this matter of the Gu Luo State Mission. Okay, let's have a rough discussion and see what we should do with this tolerance. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "Don't say it, I'm afraid this is really a problem, otherwise the Holy Lord will definitely not throw this hot potato to our Qi Palace." By the way, Wei Xin, you Shenji Camp must have relevant information about the current situation of their Yungu Cottage, you should first introduce to you, what is the current situation of Yungu Cottage? ”

Lu Weixin said: "The prince has already said earlier, this time it is no one else who detains the envoy of the ancient Luo Kingdom, it is Huo Xiaotian from Yungu Cottage. ”

Shangguan Zhongxin said: "Then what is the relationship between this Huo Xiaotian and the 'solid' Huo Helun earlier, is it his brother or what son, what kind of disciple?" ”

Lu Weixin said: "Huo Xiaotian, known as 'Iron General' by the people of the rivers and lakes, he is none other than the youngest third son of the 'impregnable' Huo Helun in the past. Don't look at him, although he is not very old, he is now more than twenty-two or three years old, but this person is better than blue. It is said that he is not only far superior to his father's time, but the two elder brothers above him are even more willing to bow to the wind and are now in charge of Yungu Cottage. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "In this way, this Huo Xiaotian is really a character, it seems that we really can't underestimate him." By the way, his father Hokhren has a solid name, which we have all heard of, which means that he is good at defense. So what does Huo Xiaotian's name of 'Iron General' mean, is it possible that it is also a continuation of his father's 'good at defense'? ”

Lu Weixin said: "Of course, this is only one of them. In addition, Huo Xiaotian is most famous, that is, he invented and manufactured an ironclad chariot with both offense and defense. ”

Shangguan Zhongxin said: "Ironclad chariot, what the hell is this?" This ironclad army is not unusual, and now the prince of Xiahou is relying on this ironclad army to shock the northern frontier. As for this chariot, it is easy to understand, but now the chariot combat method of the Grand Army has long been a thing of the past, and now it is basically a coordinated operation of infantry cavalry. In particular, the defensive function of the walled city is becoming more and more significant, which has accelerated the demise of the chariot warfare of the Great Legion. ”

Lu Weixin said: "Actually, it's not, although you are familiar with the battle array and are good at using soldiers, you still don't really understand what Huo Xiaotian's ironclad chariot means." ”

Shangguan Zhongxin said: "I said Wei Xin, aren't you talking nonsense, you better hurry up and explain it roughly, I want to see what new things this kid can play." ”

Lu Weixin said: "Let's put it this way, I'm just simply telling you, who is the ancestor of the Huo family in Yungu Mountain, it is estimated that it is not difficult for everyone to understand, what is the magic of Huo Xiaotian's ironclad chariot." ”

Speaking of this, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and then continued: "Of course, let the prince introduce this point to you, after all, it is still the old man who knows more about it." ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Okay, since that's the case, I'll show off here." The ancestor of the Huo family in their Yungu cottage is said to be none other than the world-famous carpenter ancestor Lu Ban's personal disciple, and later generations are respected as 'Huo Shenxian'. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "I see, it seems that it is really necessary for us to go to that Yungu cottage in person, so that we can really see Huo Xiaotian's 'Iron Armored Chariot' and why he is called the strange title of 'Iron General'." ”

Lu Weixin said: "Yes, I don't hide it, I only have a rough idea of the situation of the 'ironclad chariot', but what is going on, my people really don't have more detailed information." It is said that the defense of their Yungu cottage is extremely tight, and my subordinates have sent more than a dozen waves of manpower one after another, but they have not been able to really break into the Yungu cottage, let alone get any detailed information. ”
