Qi Jian didn't know what flaws he would find, while Zhou Li doubted what kind of agreement Bai Liyu and the Lord of Liu Kingdom would reach. If it is said that the previous two times Baili Yu was occupied by Zhou Li, then from this moment on, Bai Li Yu's counterattack began. So the next day, after talking to Bai Liyu and Qi Yin, Qi Jian made a move to kill him. This was not a temporary idea, but the visit of Baili Yu and Zhou Li hastened the decision. This killing was not within Baili Yu's calculations, he didn't expect Qi Jian to be such an impulsive person, but he quickly revised his plan. Qi Jian's plan was to use his henchmen to incite mass riots, and then take the opportunity to kill the person who threatened his position the most - Jiang Di at the meeting.

And Qi Shen will become his puppet and continue the royal family of Liu Kingdom. Qingwang knew that Qi Jian was indeed a Yinchi Warlock, so he believed that he must be hidden behind the scenes, so he was relieved to go to the Zongshui Special Loan Association, but Baili Yu was not a person who was in a dignified array, he took the opportunity to transfer the only assassin in Xuantian Pavilion, Tianluo, who was proficient in archery, and took advantage of Qi Jian's chaotic people to get rid of Qingwang.

Baili Yu chose to expose Qi Jian on the spot at the meeting, and did not give him any chance to plead and accuse, even if Qi Jian did not resist, he would kill him, but Qi Jian resisted as he expected. Baili Yu immediately killed him and laid all the charges on his head. When Chu found out that Baili Yu had pushed all the guilt on the dead people, they immediately knew that they should push the boat down the river at this moment, and Tang Guo had no other way. In this way, the real Qin Heavenly Eunuch Bai Li Yu took advantage of the chaos to achieve almost all the benefits he wanted.

This is probably something that Tianluo can't be good at, and the major event in Huai'an is settled, and Zhou Qing began to prepare for the greatest cause of his magnificent life - the Northern Expedition. Zhou Qing set the name of the year as Zhenyuan, which has tortuously expressed his dissatisfaction and even hatred for the regime in the north, which almost ran through his life, and when people mentioned Zhou Qing, the emperor of Zhou Wu, the focus was not on the forbearance he showed in seizing the heir or created the military armor and qin monarchy system that influenced later generations, but two successive Northern Expeditions. Seven years before Zhenyuan, he successively issued an edict to amend the military system and set up a military merit system. and ordered Ye Wang of the Ming Kingdom to raise horses, while Li Dangxin began to make vans under the guidance of Su Shen.

The old man let go of the carrier pigeon, closed the window, slowly took out the tea set, and began to let the water flow between the empty cups, and the green tendons intertwined on the hands like dead branches, but the old man's hands were as firm as a sword-wielding samurai without trembling. The bitter aroma diffused in the small bucket room, and the visible Zhou Qing-colored steam circled slightly above the spout, and the corners of the old man's mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, as if he was satisfied with the precise operation of each step. "Chungong," the uninvited guest slammed into the hut, "Qingwang...... Qingwang he ...... "I already know," the old man's tone revealed a bit of coldness, as if he was dissatisfied with the sudden air flow brought in by the visitor to destroy the environment he had carefully created, "You go back, take the door slowly, be careful not to let the wind in." "But......" The old man raised his head suddenly, his eyes like an axe splitting a sword, "If you want to drink tea, you can't be anxious, otherwise you can only burn yourself." I can wait for an old man, so what can't you wait. The old man spoke, but his hand did not stop, "Go back quickly, an hour's work is on this aroma, and it is not good if the tea fragrance is dispersed." ”

The door was slowly closed. When Zhou Qing was planning for the Northern Expedition, the ancestral hall party secretly swallowed the bitter fruit of Qingwang's death, and as soon as Qingwang died, their original investment in Qingwang could be said to have all come to naught, and more than millions of gold baht disappeared in the financial market of Wanzhou. After the death of King Qing, the ancestral party no longer had a single available person who could directly threaten Zhou Qing. Although they knew that Qingwang's death in the chaos must be inseparable from the imperial party, there was no way to fight back, but Zhou Chun suddenly got a title from Zhou Qing.

The history books contain: "Zhou Chun is in charge of the ancestral hall with his lordship, and he is the province of respect, and he is especially the lord of the 'Northern Wujun', in order to show the meaning of Fenwu Pingbei." This is probably a hint from Zhou Qing to the ancestral hall. As an ordained elder, Zhou Chun also gladly accepted such a title. The ancestral party had to accept the fact that the new emperor decided to go on a northern expedition, and they were completely defeated in the secret war with the emperor. The clouds of war began to gather in the skies of the North Continent, and at this time, the North Continent barbarians, who had just experienced a turmoil, were still satisfied with a short period of peace, unaware that the East Continent Chinese tribe, whom they regarded as sheep, had already loaded their fangs and claws, and were about to fight for the life and death with the tigers and wolves of the past......

Zhou Qing divided the country into 281 prefectures, divided into upper, middle, and lower three classes, 1,200 soldiers in the upper government, 1,000 in the middle government, and 800 people in the lower government. Each prefecture has 1 lieutenant and 1 lieutenant on the left and right. 300 people for the 1st regiment, with a captain; 50 people for 1 team, set up a team; 10 people for a fire, set the fire chief. Civil 20 served, to 60 exempted from service. The soldiers brought their own armor, food, and clothing, and deposited them in the official treasury to receive them when they went out. In addition to the Yulin Army, there are ten additional guards, and the Jinwuwei is divided into left and right, a total of 12 guards, each guard under the command of more than 10 mansions, a 2,500 people. Therefore, the total number of troops stationed near Tian Yuan all year round was about 60,000. The Twelve Guards have a military government, but they are not allowed to recruit and transfer on their own, and the transfer of troops must have an imperial order, and there is no order from the local government; The vassal states did not directly lead troops except for the number of troops specified in the edict, and their duty to the subordinate military governments was to inspect and supervise;

The commanders of the military government must use the fish charm as the basis for sending troops; The military government to which each guard belongs is not concentrated in a certain country, and several military governments in a country also belong to different guards. This design effectively prevents the formation of parties. Each guard has one general, one general on the left and right, and a battalion under the guard, and the battalion has a regiment under it. The system of military merit and knighthood, Zhou Qing set a precedent for the award of the iron cart in the first battle of Liu and Wu. Su Shen, as the leader of the Chinese army, made great contributions, and was awarded the title of marquis because of his merits, and the other three in the iron cart were not enough to be knighted after all.

Emperor Zhou Ning, the ancestor of the Zhou Qing Dynasty, stipulated that "the non-Zhou Qing clan shall not be crowned king, and the marquis cannot be awarded without great merit", the Zhou Dynasty has been partial to the Eastern Land for a long time, and the so-called great merit generally refers to the merit of Wenzhi, and by the time of the Zhou Qing Dynasty, the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty has not been awarded military merits for more than 100 years. In order to quickly improve the status of his team, Zhou Qing set up a set of military meritorious, which is divided into ten grades: first-level public husband, second-level non-change, third-level doctor, fourth-level public passenger, fifth-level chief, sixth-level middle guard, seventh-level Shaoshangzao, eighth-level Dashangzao, ninth-level middle marquis, and tenth-level liehou. Among the ten-level military merits, the first two levels are still soldiers, and they can eat in the middle of the year, and the last two levels are equivalent to feudal marquis. And Da Shangzao is second only to Hou, which is a very high title.

Reward and punishment systemIn order to encourage the Northern Expedition, Zhou Qing greatly improved the status and treatment of soldiers, and the reward and punishment system in the army was stricter than before, with thicker rewards and stricter punishments. Under the stimulation of such a reward and punishment system, the Eastern Army was completely renewed, and it has long been said in the army that "barbarians are like tigers, and military punishments are fiercer than tigers; Officials are like honey, and military rewards are sweet like honey". According to the records of the "Zhou Tongdian", the rewards and punishments during the Northern Expedition were roughly as follows: 1. If an individual soldier kills one person in the war, the whole family is exempted from one year of conscription. 2. A soldier who kills an enemy officer in a war and receives his first rank shall be knighted with a field of nine acres. 3. Fighting in a squad of less than 100 people, killing more than 33 enemies in the battle will be rated as full merit, and the leading officer (team leader, fire chief) will be promoted to the first level. Fourth, in the case of a large army, more than 8,000 beheadings in siege warfare and more than 2,000 beheadings in field battles, and officers at all levels in the unit are promoted to one rank, and those who have made great contributions can be promoted to three levels in a row. 5. Ten soldiers shall be set on fire, and one of them shall escape, and the rest shall be sentenced to two years' imprisonment for saving the others. 6. If an officer is killed in battle, the guards with the guard shall be punished. Those who behead the enemy in the guard can be punished with knights. 7. In the battle of the fortified positions, the heroic men are selected from the main direction to form the commandos. Those who escaped from the assault team were sentenced to death and could be executed on the spot. If the task is completed, each person will be awarded the first level. 8. Those who have won the war in a row, and who have reached the sixth rank of the middle watch, can "eat 300 households", that is, enjoy the tax of 300 households. If you break the law (not military law), you can be convicted of the crime. This extreme contrast between rewards and punishments made all the soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty in the battle array serve to the death, move forward bravely, and be able to train sheep into tigers, I have to say that Zhou Qing still has some talent in governing the army. In fact, as an emperor who liked to conquer in person, Zhou Qingqing was a qualified general.

Zhou Wutie's brigade made two northern expeditions, and it was not once or twice that the barbarian army threatened Zhou Qing's Chinese army array, but he had never heard of Zhou Qing panicking in front of the enemy, even if the situation was very urgent. As an emperor, this composure is very rare, and it is difficult to say whether it is due to Zhou Qing's perseverance or his own "experience" in the dark streets in his early years. What's even more rare is that as an emperor born as a concubine, Zhou Qing is very sympathetic to the soldiers under his command: in addition to often going to condolences in person, Zhou Qing often likes to go to a certain barracks without notice, have fun with the soldiers, or have a competition, although after the soldiers release the water, the victory or defeat is about five or five, but the victory and defeat itself is not important, this kind of affinity in a high position and not arrogant should also be one of the reasons why the soldiers are willing to die for Zhou Qing. The scars left by the horses and locusts on the Zhou Dynasty have not yet been smoothed, and the cavalry that comes and goes like the wind in the northern continent has become a nightmare in the hearts of the people of the Eastern Continent, and it is also deeply feared by Zhou Qing. As early as in the Xuantian Pavilion, Zhou Qing had discussed with Bai Liyu and many officers, and everyone felt that if there was no good horse, it would be difficult to restrain the barbarians' strong horses, so at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, Zhou Qing painstakingly wanted to create an elite cavalry that could compete with the barbarians. The battle against Liu and Wu enabled Zhou Qing to find a loyal ally - Zhu Tingshen, in Zhou Qing's opinion, this young man who was determined to go on the Northern Expedition could provide him with a lot of help, so he was also relieved to send his confidant, Ye Wang, to the Ming State to lead the three armies. Facts have proved that Zhou Qing's decision was wise, because what he wanted to train in the Ming Kingdom was a fast-attacking iron cavalry, and the person who led and trained this iron cavalry was the most unruly tiger Ye Wang.

Ye Wang is not interested in complicated copywriting work, and when he is in office, he likes to do three things the most: first, horse training in horse farms; 2. Military exercises on campus; 3. Hunt down and kill small groups of brute locusts. Among them, the most important is the first item, there is no large-scale horse farm in the Eastern Continent, so even if it is a good breed in the Northern Continent, it has degraded very much after the Eastern Continent, and the Ming Kingdom has established a horse breeding system since Ye Wang took office, and the whole Zhou has not been replaced. When Ye Wang took office, the Ming Dynasty had 2,000 Beilu barbarian horses found in various parts of the Zhou Dynasty, and hundreds of Donglu horses bought from Yebei, and took the land in the upper reaches of the Ming Dynasty near Mingluo Mountain as pasture for breeding and domestication. Within a few years, the number of horses approached 100,000, and they were divided into four directions: east, west, north, and south. In addition to the pastoral superintendent, each supervisor also has the posts of deputy superintendent, chief supervisor, direct director, regimental officer, shepherd, horse platoon, shepherd, etc., who are in charge of different numbers of horses according to the size of the function, and supervise at all levels. In the horse prison, the horses are graded, and every time they fight, they will first take the upper class, and if the number of the upper class is insufficient, they will take the middle number, and then they will take the lower class. Among them, the superior horse breed is matched with the night horse, which has both the endurance of the North Continent horse and the magic horse of the night North horse, which has become a great magic weapon for the East Continent against the North Continent cavalry. Zhou Qing's emphasis on horses has been rewarded accordingly, so that in the two northern expeditions of his life, he has never been troubled by the lack of horses, and the establishment of the Ming State Horse Farm has a far impact beyond Zhou Qing's imagination.

In the past, the use of equipment carts and carts in warfare was very simple - to transport heavy grain and grass, but in Li Dangxin's place, the carts have undergone fundamental changes in both structure and function. It is rumored that Lee Beware is a steady person outside the battle formation, but not only that, but in the eyes of many, he is simply a dull person. Li Careful's style of acting can be summed up in one sentence - plan and then act, that is, if this person does not move, he must have calculated that he has a great chance of winning. In the end of the Zhou Dynasty, I am afraid that this person can give full play to the word "temple calculation" to the extreme. After Zhou Qing ascended the throne, the Xuantian Pavilion still met from time to time, and after having the support of the emperor of the current dynasty, their topic shifted from "how to promote Zhou Qing to the throne" to "how to make the Eastern Continent army victorious in the Northern Expedition". In the lavish discussion, this group of ambitious imperial cronies and the backbone of the army encountered an inevitable obstacle - the barbarian cavalry, and if this obstacle was not resolved, it would be difficult for the Eastern Continent army to win in the Pingguang Hokuriku. It is difficult to describe the weight of the barbarian cavalry among the people of the Eastern Army, and in any case, this pressure will not be summed up by the simple word "heavy". The times create heroes, and this heavy pressure makes the future generals of the empire look for their own paths - Ye Wang began to raise horses in the Ming Kingdom, and Ye Zheng also began to train his "Seven Columns of Wolf Teeth", and at this time, Li Beware had no clue here.

When a person is faced with an unsolvable problem, he will have an emotion called bitterness; So the bitter and stubborn Lee carefully locked himself in his room and began to do what he did best - calculate. Li Beware calculated countless possibilities for the Eastern Army to compete with the barbarian cavalry, and the symbols he wrote on his calculations were unintelligible, and the way he counted the numbers in rows was not even seen by the doctors of Qin Tianjian, and it is said that every day his drafts were thrown everywhere and often covered with the meals brought in by the servants. Ten days later, Li Jingxin, who was described as withered, walked out of the room with his draft and went straight to Su Shen's house. Su Shen patiently listened to Li Caution's explanation with two pairs, and only said one sentence "Don't attack", and Li Caution turned around and left.

Li Beware is a master of the study of battle formations, but in the overall grasp of the battle situation, it is not as good as Su Shen, the two countries are at war, in addition to winning on the battlefield, they also pay attention to logistics and national strength, Li Beware shows Su Shen the result, it is the tactics of fighting head-on with the barbarian cavalry, and Su Shen asked how to deal with the barbarians if they avoid fighting. For another half a month, Li Beware revised the previous answer and handed over an answer sheet that was not very satisfactory - luring the enemy. In the conquest of the Northern Continent, of course, logistical support is crucial, the transportation of ordnance, grain and grass is related to the success or failure of the front line, and the mobility of the barbarian cavalry makes them a great threat to the transportation team of the Eastern Continent, which is also a problem that the Xuantian Pavilion has not been able to solve.

Li Careful started with the shape of the carts used for transportation, and instead of using the open bellies of the previous cars, he supervised the construction of a number of carts with thickened compartment walls, iron sheets wrapped in the interchange, and asbestos inside. After having this batch of carts, he selected a group of recruits from the Yulin Army and practiced on his own, and the training items were divided into two parts, one was archery, and the other was the technique of halberd shield. When the drill was completed, he pulled this new army to the Ming Kingdom for a "trip", and by the way, he had a competition with the Wind Tiger Cavalry trained by Ye Wang. The Wind Tiger sprinted towards the cart from a distance, and under the command of Li Jingxin, the soldiers quickly formed a circle around the van, with the soldiers with halberds and shields on the outer layer and the bows and crossbows on the inner layer. Once the wind tiger in steel armor approached, it was shot back by the rain of arrows, although people could be unharmed, but the horses were covered by the rain of arrows with their heads broken, and they still fell to the ground in pain, and the cavalry who rushed in was blocked by the van and the big shield, and it was difficult to get close at all, and the wind tiger returned in vain three charges.

When Zhou Qing heard the news, he was very pleased, and divided two of the twelve guards with Li Beware, which was for the left and right van guards. Obstacles that can be moved by rejecting horses are often used to block road traffic, trenches, city gates, etc. Generally, the log with a circumference of two feet is used as the trunk, the length is determined according to the need, the cross hole is drilled in the log, the root of the horizontal wood with a length of one zhang is installed, the upper end is sharpened, and it is set up at the city gate, the alley mouth and the main road, blocking the passage of people and horses. During the Northern Expedition, he drilled holes in the rejection horses and inserted spears to block the cavalry, which had a lot of effect. The seagoing ship Zhou Wuchao learned the lessons of the previous dynasty, broke the ban on the sea that had been implemented for more than 200 years, and began to build a sailor. The foundation of the naval army is shipbuilding. According to the records of Emperor Wu, from the early years of Beili to the eleventh year of Beili, there were 2,867 large and small river ships and 1,275 sea ships manufactured under the supervision of the government alone, not counting the boats and private ships. The navy of the Zhou Dynasty was counted as a group of 50 to 100 ships, and set up water villages in various places along the coast, with at least one group of ships in each village, and two groups of ships in Quanming and Bizhi. The ironwood tower ships manufactured in Quanming can accommodate an average of 450 people each, far surpassing the Wanzhou warships and becoming a sharp weapon to contain the Tiantuo Strait.

Due to the limitations of communication and other conditions, the navy did not develop into an independent branch of the army at that time, but was divided according to the defense zone and was under the control of local coastal defense officials. If Ye Wang is the commander of the three armies of the Ming Kingdom, of course, he will also be in charge of the entire coastal defense army of the Ming Kingdom, of course, Ye Wang has not thought about this at all, thanks to the operation of the people below.

When Chuyun Alam Khan Shuofeng led the Shuofeng Tribes to reign in the Northern Capital again, it had been seven years and three months since he left here. He rode a horse taller than him and slowly marched on the official road outside the northern capital. Behind him was the Iron Floating Massacre, for which the Shuofeng Department was famous, and the people of the northern capital were crawling on both sides of the road. He clenched the reins, held his head high, and struggled to maintain a calm and composed look. Chu Yun reined in his horse outside the Muwu Gate, and kneeling in front of the door was the Minister of Culture and Military Affairs of the Alutai Ministry, and the old minister Guoyingtai, who was kneeling in the front, took a few steps on his knees, and raised the descending table above his head. They had been kneeling here for more than a pair, and their knees were swollen and congested despite the cotton bags secretly tied in their trousers. Even so, they were luckier than their lord - he had lost his life in the battle ten days earlier, and his head was now buried in a wooden box filled with lime.

At this time, if the person who was prostrate on the ground had the courage to raise his head and sneak a glance at Chu Yun's face, he would definitely find the irrepressible look in his eyes, which was not the excitement of ascending to the throne of the Great Prince, but the curiosity of seeing the huge circle of city walls erected in the grassland for the first time. This year, Chu Yun was less than ten years old, and he was only two and a half years old when Shuofeng abandoned the northern capital seven years ago and fled, and this was the first time this half-old child had seen the walls of the northern capital since he could remember. Now Chu Yun can draw a one-stone bow, shoot a red heart a hundred paces away when riding a horse, can recite more than fifty poems of the Eastern Continent, and can announce to the courtiers in the golden tent the decree that his mother held his hand the night before and taught him to be silent, in addition, he, like other children of this age, will be curious about the bluestone slabs that have been picked from Gouge Mountain to pave the way under his feet, and will be amazed by the grandeur and majesty of the walls of the northern capital.

The military general who followed Chu Yun jumped off his horse to pick up the surrender table, but the old and weak Yingtai didn't know where the strength came from, and he clenched the surrender table tightly, and his cloudy white eyes stared at the general's face, which seemed to give birth to teeth to bite off the general's throat. Chu Ye Morag Shuofeng, Chu Yun's own uncle, gave the leopard tail, was crowned the king of the Han Dynasty, hereditary replacement, and beheaded the lord of the Alutai Department in front of the battle ten days ago. However, the surrender table was finally taken over by Chu Ye, and after he read it out in public, he turned around and knelt down to offer Chu Yun, Chu Yun took the surrender table, and the Tiefutu cavalry behind him dismounted and drove the old ministers of the Arutai Department who refused to leave for a long time to scatter left and right.

Chu Yun stepped into the northern capital city amid cheers, half of the cheers came from the victory of the Shuofeng soldiers, and the other half came from the people who were prostrate on the left and right - they didn't really care who put up his Golden Horde flag in this city in the end, they only cared that the grassland finally ushered in a new round of short-lived peace. Chu Yun's white silk rose at the head of the city, Yingtai crashed and died under the wall of Muwumen, and the historian of the Shuofeng Department hastily said, "In the year of the rat, Alutai Yu reversed the descending table, and the Shuofeng Department re-entered the northern capital, and Yingtai was killed in the opposite phase." "I finished the last page of the history of the Arutai Division. However, the focus of controversy among later historians has never been on Yingtai's death, and they are more interested in analyzing why Chu Ye willingly supported Chu Yun, who was less than ten years old, to ascend to the throne of the Great Monarch of the Northern Continent, and has been in charge of military power for nearly ten years, but has never moved the idea of replacing him.

Xie Mo's book "The Source of Beihan" made a very bold speculation about this, after the death of the eldest monarch, Chu Ye had an affair with Chu Yun's mother, Qiu Yueli of the Shuofeng Da Yan clan, and even hinted intentionally or unintentionally that Chu Yun was actually the illegitimate son of Chu Ye and Qiu Yueli, so he willingly assisted Chu Yun in running government affairs and commanding the three armies, and cited a series of things such as Chu Ye's childlessness as evidence. However, considering that "The Source of Beihan" is the same as "Weekend Chronicle", it was also compiled by those crazy people raised by Xie Mo, and many of the speculations and vicious attacks on foreign races have always been despised by historians, so this statement is difficult to stand, but it is quite popular in the market and is common in drum books.

According to the records of other historical materials, Chu Ye's main duty is actually to lead the troops, and there is actually someone else who really controls Shuofeng's government affairs, and it is a woman, she is Chu Yun's mother Qiu Yueli. Historical records record that Qiu Yueli is the youngest daughter of the Ming Duke Qiu, born in the 34th year of Zhou Wen, and in the 50th year of Zhou Wen, Qiu Yueli was awarded the title of Princess Yueli, and married the new lord of the Shuofeng Department, Chuhui Suyele Shuofeng. There are very few records about Qiu Yueli's married life with Chu Hui, only that Qiu Yueli married Shuofeng four years after Zhou Wen had a son for the Great Monarch in the fifty-fourth year of his marriage, that is, his third son, Chu Guang Tuke Shuofeng; Three years later, in the fifty-seventh year of Zhou Wen, he gave birth to his fifth son, Chuyun Alam Khan Shuofeng.

Two and a half years later, Chu Hui was defeated and died, and he didn't have time to add a younger brother to Chu Yun, so Chu Yun sat firmly on the throne of the prince. However, the prince is still not a small distance from the monarch, and after the Shuofeng tribe withdrew from the northern capital, he fled to the birthplace of his tribe, Youxiong Mountain, preparing to regroup and make a comeback. In the process of escaping, several Khan kings of the Shuofeng Department gradually became disobedient, some of them coveted the throne of the lord and planned to replace him, and some even planned to sacrifice Chu Yun to the Arutai Department in order to protect themselves, and Chu Yun, who was only two years old, was completely ignorant of the impending crisis. It's hard to say how deep Qiu Yueli's love for Chu Hui is, who was forced to be sent to Hokuriku to make peace, but this does not hinder the mother's great determination to protect her son.

Qiu Yueli knew that at this moment, as a woman who had married from the East Continent, she had no support from her mother's family, and she could only protect her son with her own strength. How do you reunite the tribe around your son? Qiu Yueli chose to do the opposite, and she further provoked disputes within the tribe. Qiu Yue was only twenty-five years old at the time, and her extraordinary appearance was enough to make all the men on the grassland fall in love with her. She cleverly used her best advantage to spread rumors that she might remarry. The barbarians on the grassland did not have so many concepts of etiquette, and even it was common for the Da Yan clan to remarry after the death of the lord. So the khan kings were red-eyed, the prince was only two years old, and marrying Qiu Yueli could not only get a beauty, but also become the de facto monarch as Chu Yun's stepfather. The tribes, which were already disunited, became more fragmented, and a very embarrassing situation arose, in which each faction became an absolute minority, so that no one dared to act rashly. Qiu Yueli calmly and unhurriedly maneuvered among the various factions, left and right, strict with morality, and promised benefits.

Chu Ye, who was in charge of the cavalry of the Tiefutu, was the first to swear allegiance to Chu Yun, and then the khans and kings joined one after another. Qiu Yueli, a weak woman from a family of princes of the Ming Kingdom, taught the barbarians a lesson with practical actions - in terms of power and scheming, you are still far away. The climate of the grassland did not erase the bright light of the autumn moon, and what made her look haggard was the sinister political situation in the North Continent. As a woman, and a woman who married from the Eastern Continent, she was able to gain the trust of the Shuofeng Ministry, and she undoubtedly paid a lot, including some very unbearable suspicions. To everyone's surprise, Qiu Yueli immediately announced the restoration of the ancient "Five Elders Discussion of Politics" system almost as soon as Chu Yun gained support.

The Shuofeng Department is composed of five families with big surnames, namely the Chu family, the Chao Tuluding family, the Li family, the Yan family, and the Tie family.

However, in the hands of the son of Alam Khan, that is, in the hands of our Zhaowu Emperor Asule's father, the entire Shuofeng Department was held in the hands of the Shuofeng family.

In the era of King Xun, Chu Shuofeng, the recognized ancestor of the Shuofeng family of the Chu family, established the Shuofeng Department, and after the death of King Xun, Chu Shuofeng entered the northern capital and became the king of Kulig. Chu Shuofeng served as the Great Monarch of Kulig for fifteen years, and when he died, his successor Chu Duo Gulal Shuofeng was only eleven years old, and Chu Shuofeng appointed an elder in each of the five families, including the Chu Shuofeng family, to jointly govern the Shuofeng Department, until Chu Duo became an adult at the age of fifteen, the five elders returned to the monarch, and this history is called "Five Elders Discussing Politics". The proposal of the "Five Elders to Discuss Politics" expressed the Chu family's highest respect for the other four families and maintained the face of the five families, so it was strongly supported by the other four families.

Qiu Yueli's political literacy in this incident completely conquered the Shuofeng Ministry, so although the final candidate for the elders of the Chu clan's Shuofeng family was Chu Ye, the Five Elders Association made an exception to allow Qiu Yueli to participate in the meeting on behalf of Chu Yun, and Qiu Yueli has since become more and more involved in the discussion of tribal politics and even military affairs. The elders of the other families are Chaozhe Suhehoman Heludin, the patriarch of the Chao family, which means "insurmountable mountain"; Li's Chaodra and the patriarch of the family, Li Qianyi Tienuo Chaodra, Tienuo means "north wind"; The patriarch of the Gan Gurrayan family, Yan Zhu Duo Kuoting Gulayan, Duo Kuoting means "boundless sea"; and the patriarch of the Tie clan Jirado Tiebayue Handarei Jirado, Handale means "Black Panther".

In the later stage of the Five Elders' Conference, Chu Ye gave the right back to Chu Yun, and he no longer participated in the Five Elders' Conference, and Qiu Yueli and Chu Yun participated together. Chu Yun has grown into a teenager, and he talks eloquently in the face of the four patriarchs, as if he already has the style of a Ming monarch. And the Arutai Division, which entered the Northern Capital to seize the throne of the Maharaja, was unable to convince the people and was attacked everywhere, and did not have the ability to pursue the rest of the Shuofeng Division, which gave the Shuofeng Department time and opportunity to recuperate. The Shuofeng Department recuperated and multiplied in the Bear Mountain, planning a counterattack on the northern capital all the time. But such days did not last long, and there were robbers from the foot of the bear mountain who intended to take advantage of the fire to rob - northern Shuobei. But the northern part of Shuo had come at an inopportune time, and their decision to send troops was made too late, so that by the time they arrived, the largest giant of the grasslands, the Shuofeng Tribe, had already relieved himself.

When Chu Ye was alive, he had already used his wisdom to threaten the famous generals of the grassland, and he had always been suspicious of Chu Hui, who was stubborn and self-serving. The Alu Taibu set up a counter-plot to divide the Chu brothers, and the elder brother could not directly relieve the younger brother of the Tiefutu cavalry power, so he sent Chu Ye to lead the elite cavalry of the Tiefutu, which was supposed to be the security of the northern capital, and the Shuofeng Dajun's personal guard army went to the north to conquer the northern part of Shuo. Therefore, when the Arutai raided the northern capital, they chose the time when Chu Ye was far away in Yin Yuyuan and confronted the famous white wolf cavalry in the north of Shuo.

The war was in a stalemate, and it was difficult for Chu Ye to withdraw, so he ordered someone to fetch a few live sheep, hang their hind hooves, and put their front hooves on the drum. At nightfall, the lights were extinguished in the camp, and the soldiers took off the luan bells, the horseshoe wraps, and the bridles of the horses, and the groups withdrew from the camp at night. When he found out on the second day in northern Shuo, Chu Ye had already gone far away. After Chu Ye escaped, he returned south in the starry night, but the road was far away, and when he arrived, the northern capital had already fallen, and his brother was killed in battle, Chu Ye had to join the remnants of Shuofeng who broke through the force and fought and retreated to the north.

But at this moment, Chu Ye had already taken all the military power of the Shuofeng Department in his hands, and Qiu Yueli, who was in charge of power on behalf of Chu Yun, expressed complete trust in Chu Ye, and he could finally continue this battle that was not fought back then without any restraint. The war between the Shuofeng Department and the northern part of Shuo lasted for a long time, but the two bones of the Shuofeng Department and the northern part of Shuo were too big for anyone to eat, and in the end, the two departments made a peace alliance as the final game. Although Chu Ye is in power, he has always taken care of Chu Yun and is loyal, so much so that some people say that Chu Yun is actually his son.

Qiu Yueli then proposed to the sovereign of northern Shuo that Chu Yun was engaged to Lou Xun Donalan Erhan, the daughter of the sovereign of northern Shuo. In fact, Lou Xun was only four years old at the time, and Chu Yun was only five and a half years old, so he agreed to wait until Lou Xun was fourteen years old to do family affairs for them. Everyone knew that with Lou Xun Donalan Erhan's noble background, there was no doubt that he would become the future of the Shuofeng Clan. Because of this relationship, a few years later, when the Shuofeng Department waved its army south to attack the northern capital, the galloping wolf riders in the northern part of Shuo stood on the side of the Shuofeng Division. At the end of the eighth year of Zhenyuan, Shuofeng and Shuobei walked out of Yin Yuyuan and went straight to the northern capital. The tribes that were already disgruntled with the Arutai tribe either chose to stand by or join the camp of the Shuofeng tribe. The following year, the Arutai tribe was crushed under the attack of the allied forces of various tribes, and as the last bloodline of the Golden Family, the Arutai tribe with the bear as the totem completely disappeared from the grassland.

And on the other side of the Tiantuo River, Zhou Qing's life was not easy. In his plan, the Arutai tribe, which had increased the income from the annual tribute, should use the money to strengthen armaments or strengthen diplomatic ties with other tribes, because the main forces of the elite of the Shuofeng tribe, the Iron Float and the Ghost Bow, had hardly suffered any losses in this war, and the Arutai tribe that had attacked the northern capital by cunning could be counterattacked by the Shuofeng tribe at any time. However, the lord of the Arutai tribe did not seem to see this clearly, and he did not know whether he had exhausted his ambitions in the battle of the northern capital, or whether he had been a little too light because the victory had come too easily, and he seemed to be more inclined to use them to buy luxury goods such as silk and jade, and to build a palace in the northern capital. Since the construction of the northern capital by King Akanti, the northern capital has not had any fixed buildings except for the inner and outer cities and the arrow tower, but it is centered on the golden tent of the great king, surrounded by countless tents. And the lord of the Arutai tribe made this plan, I am afraid that he still thinks that his feat can be compared with the merit of King Xun in building the northern capital.

Zhou Qing was angry and funny about this living treasure, he had long expected that the Alu Taibu would cause civil strife among the barbarians after entering the Northern Capital, but he didn't expect the Alu Taibu to be so uncompetitive. If the Arutai tribe is willing to strengthen its armament in a down-to-earth manner, and can buy him another year, he will be able to make all preparations for the Northern Expedition, when the army will swing north to Tiantuo, and the barbarian tribes trapped in civil strife will be like a plate of scattered sand, and they will be able to be defeated with one blow. And the rout of Arutaibu was faster than he imagined, the palace was only a prototype, and the northern capital changed hands. Qiu Yueli pointed to the palace and said to Chu Yun that the emperor of the Eastern Continent lost his throne because of the construction of the palace. The northern continent is already poorer than the eastern continent, and there are many tribes around the northern capital that are eyeing the northern capital, and the construction of palaces costs the people and money, and the gains outweigh the losses. The palace in the northern capital was soon demolished, and the gold-domed tents were re-erected on the ruins of the palace.

At the age of ten, Chu Yun convened the first Kulig Assembly in his life, becoming the youngest lord in the history of the Kulig Assembly, and the Bronze Family regained rule over the grasslands seven years after leaving the Northern Capital. Qiu Yueli selected young and brave warriors from among the aristocratic youths of her tribe to serve as Chu Yun's companions, and also let them follow Chu Yun's account to learn how to assist the Mahjun in handling government affairs, these young people who eat, drink, hunt and wrestle with Chu Yun all day long became Chu Yun's most loyal friends, and many of them became his advisors and fierce generals after Chu Yun became adults.
