If it is said that the rivers and mountains of the Great Qin Dynasty are thousands of miles, which one is the most intense, there is no doubt that it is Fuluo River.

Located on the edge of the southwest ice field, Fuluo River is shrouded in ice, snow and yellow sand all year round, and even the cities here are made of sand. This place is the old capital of Bailan, bordering the West Sea in the west, the Hexi Corridor in the east, and Liangzhou in the north.

Because the terrain is cold and high, close to the sand and the sea, and the territory is vast, if there are feudal officials here, it is very easy to breed the ambition of secession. After Bailan was annexed, the direct members of the royal family deliberately moved from Fuluochuan to live in Lintao, which is close to Hezhou, to show that they have no two intentions to serve the country loyally from now on.

At this point, the control of the Bailan Murong clan in Fuluochuan gradually weakened, and the Great Qin court was also difficult to form a strong control over this place due to geographical reasons. If this place is deserted, it would be fine, but this place was originally used as the capital of Bailan, and after years of development, there are also a lot of people.

There are too many people and they can't effectively govern it, and over time, Fuluochuan will cause trouble.

The Fuluochuan bandits are not strong, and the imperial court can always be easily pacified. However, the victory is frequent, and the source is continuous, and often as soon as the officers and men are eliminated, the bandit trouble stops, and as soon as the officers and men retreat, the bandit trouble rises again within a few months. Geographical reasons also made it inconvenient for the officers and soldiers to supply here, and it was impossible to garrison the troops for a long time.

Gradually, a common practice was formed, and every few months, the officers and soldiers would enter the Fuluo River to clear the river. The suppression of bandits in Fuluochuan is usually the responsibility of Mao Xing, the assassin of Hezhou who guards the Hexi Corridor. In the past, Fu Deng was crowned the king of Nan'an with his military exploits, and seventy percent of his military exploits came from Fuluochuan. Sometimes, in order to make military merits, the garrisons in various places will also take the initiative to apply to suppress bandits, and the imperial court usually does not refuse. Last time, the general of the Great Realm did not transfer the garrison without authorization, and he used the excuse of entering Fuluochuan to suppress bandits.

"Tell Mao Shuai, Tanma has found out that the stronghold where Jukou Xiangguang is hiding is ten miles ahead!"

The sentry, dressed in a cold suit, gasped for breath and leaned heavily on one knee. Although it is July, which should be the hottest time of the year, it is still cold as winter in Fuluochuan, but there is no more snow.

In front of the sentry, a middle-aged man riding a white horse with a light fur, a sword at his waist, and slightly gray sideburns is one of the top ten generals of Great Qin, the biological father of Great Qin after the war, and Mao Xing, the assassin of Hezhou!

Behind Mao Xing is a black iron cavalry, they are the Longxi iron cavalry, one of the most elite armies in the world. The death guard that shocked the princes of the world in the early dynasty was based on the Longxi Iron Cavalry.

Mao Xing turned over and dismounted, picked up the sentry with his own hands, looked up at the wind and sand in front of him, and said loudly: "Soldiers, cheer up, today we will pacify the bandits!" ”

"No!"

The three armies responded in unison, and the momentum shook the sky.

Ten miles away, there is a dilapidated and low abandoned earthen city.

This is the camp of the bandit Xiangguang.

There are no towers in Tucheng, and there are no people standing on the city walls, and countless bandits carry large swords and spears in their hands, walking and sitting in the city at will, and there are no rules at all. However, it can be seen from their panicked expressions that they are still afraid of the officers and soldiers coming to suppress them.

In a simple earthen house, the bandit Xiangguang is discussing with a few henchmen.

"Damn, there was only one officer and soldier who came to Fuluochuan last month, why did Mao Xing come this month!"

Xiangguang is a middle-aged man, with a short body, a face full of meat, and a hideous expression. He spat the ground, his face gloomy.

According to the original experience, as long as officers and soldiers from other places came to Fuluochuan to spontaneously suppress bandits, Mao Xing would not come again in the next few months. After all, Mao Xing also knew that the bandits in Fuluochuan were difficult to eradicate, so they could only be cleaned regularly. If you clean too diligently, you will only waste resources.

This auspicious light is the great coward of Fuluochuan, who is accustomed to hiding, and has evaded countless purging by officers and soldiers. Last month, he hid in Tibet, and finally escaped the officers and soldiers who came to make military achievements. I thought that I would have a few more months to get away with it, but I didn't expect that it would be less than a month before Mao Xing came again. It's just that he was unprepared at this time, and he was blocked by Mao Xing, so he couldn't help but be depressed.

A roe deer-headed rat-eyed bandit said hatefully: "I have inquired clearly, Mao Xing would not have come, it was his prince and son-in-law who wrote a letter to him, saying that Longxi's armament was slightly relaxed, and told him to train his troops diligently, so Mao Xing decided to march into Fuluochuan in advance." This matter spread throughout the city of Hezhou. ”

Xiangguang was so angry that he shouted: "What a grudge this pair of dog sons-in-law, they can't be happy with me!" ”

Some bandits couldn't stand it, coughed dryly, and said, "It may not be that they are coming for the big boss, maybe they just happened to bump into it." ”

You are a little bandit, and you don't deserve to let the dignified Hezhou Assassin send troops to clean it up.

Another bandit shouted: "It's useless to talk about this now, the officers and soldiers are less than ten miles away, let's think about how to deal with it!" ”

The bandit with the roe head rat at the front said: "By the way, didn't the big boss receive that letter a few months ago, it is better to let the person who wrote the letter come forward, and in that person's identity, it is just a matter of one sentence to make Mao Xing retreat!" ”

When Xiangguang heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he slapped the head of the roe head rat-eyed bandit, and shouted: "It will take half a month for us to get to Chang'an from Fuluochuan, and this back and forth will add up, not to mention a month." Can Lao Tzu last so long under Mao Xing's hands? What's more, it's July now, and we didn't enter Chang'an as agreed, how could that person ignore us. ”

When the roe head rat heard this, his expression was also dark, and he muttered: "If we had known that there was such a catastrophe today, we might as well go to Beijing for an appointment." ”

Xiangguang shook his head and sneered: "Is it a good deal for you to enter Beijing?" Don't forget, rebellion is a mortal crime. That is also a righteous prince, he knows that the emperor is a bodhisattva, and even if he fails, he may not be willing to kill him. But we are cheap lives, the emperor will not look at it, once we fail, do you think we still have a way to live? When the time comes, it is better to be escorted to the entrance of the vegetable market with a thousand cuts, than to be chased and killed by Mao Xing? ”

The roe deer man sighed and said: "Alas, this is not good, that is not good, what should I do now, you can say something!" ”

As soon as he said this, all the bandits looked at Xiangguang again.

Xiangguang can become the leader of the bandits, naturally it is not pure criticism, there are still some ruthlessness and treacherous schemes.

But he saw that Xiangguang rubbing his huge belly, his eyes were rolling around, and finally he gritted his teeth fiercely, and said angrily: "This Fuluochuan is our territory, so what if Mao Xingzong is a famous general, the strong dragon can't suppress the head snake!" Since he has to find our bad luck, let's set up a formation to clean him up, so that he can know whose territory this Fuluochuan is! ”

......

When the sun was sinking in the west, the Longxi Iron Cavalry entered Tucheng, and the bandits suffered heavy losses, and the rest surrendered.

Xiangguang was tied up by five flowers and escorted in front of Mao Xing. He said unruly: "Lao Tzu is not convinced, Lao Tzu's Tai Chi Bagua Array was circulated from the Bailan Military Department back then, it is a wonderful array, why was it broken by your old man as soon as he saw it!" ”

Mao Xing glanced at him disdainfully, shook his head slowly, and said: "In the past, Ben Shuai fought for His Majesty in the south and the north, sweeping away the countries, what formation has not been seen?" Bai Lan is only a small country, what wonderful formation can he have? ”

Xiangguang's face turned pale, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly shouted loudly: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I am not a bandit, I want to change my ways, and beg my grandfather to take my life!" ”

Seeing that the bandit's attitude had changed so much, Mao Xing couldn't help but smile dumbly, and waved his hand slightly: "Drag it down and cut it." ”

If you are a bandit, how can you capture but not kill?

The two armorers responded and dragged Xiangguang to the side and beheaded him.

"Grandpa don't want to kill me, grandpa doesn't want to kill me, ah!"

With a terrible scream, the bandit Xiangguang, who had a great reputation in Fuluochuan, was killed.

Mao Xing turned a deaf ear to this, and was about to give the order to bury the pot to make rice, but he saw a soldier holding a letterhead in his hand and walked quickly: "Report to the marshal, find this thing in Xiangguang's residence!" ”

Mao Xing took the letterhead and couldn't help frowning, only to see that in the middle of the letterhead, there were big words "Hero Post" written on it. This letterhead is made of fine kraft paper, and it is also edged with fire paint, and from the snow-white corner exposed from the edge of the envelope, it can be seen that the letter paper inside is made of the top rice paper. You must know that although paper has become popular in this era, papermaking technology still needs to be improved, and the finest paper is still a luxury.

Such an expensive letterhead should not have appeared in the hands of a bandit in Fuluochuan!

Something is wrong!

Mao Xing decisively took out the letter paper and put it in front of him to read.

In just a moment, only a few lines of letterhead had been read by Mao Xing.

At this time, Mao Xing was already covered with cold sweat.

He asked in a trembling voice, "What day is it?" ”

A general responded: "Marshal, today is the first day of the seventh month." ”

Mao Xing suddenly exclaimed: "Pass on my commander's order, the three armies will set off immediately, the target, the Beijing Division!" ”

......

Chang'an, the palace of the East China Sea.

Since the Mo Wei case, the king of the East China Sea, Fuyang, has been under house arrest for two months.

Fortunately, there is no evidence to prove that Mo Wei's rebellion was instructed by him Fuyang, so the imperial court did not embarrass him, but only restricted his travel.

Fu Yang was wearing a spring shirt and drinking tea alone in the gazebo, with a small pile of ice stacked beside him, melting the summer heat.

He said softly as if talking to himself: "In the middle of July, there is only half a month to change the world, and everything that should be there should have arrived." ”

A black shadow came out of nowhere, and suddenly appeared beside Fu Yang, who was not the shadow. The black shadow whispered, "Several forces have infiltrated the capital one after another, and the others must be coming soon." ”

The shadow voice paused, and then hesitated: "My subordinates think that after all, we still need to find a way to drag King Yue into the water to be more secure." After all, Jingying Zhai Liao is the person of the king of Yue. Those people in the rivers and lakes can disrupt the Jingshi, but in the end, they still need a large army to dispatch. ”

"I wanted to fake Fu Kui's order to let Wang Pi cause trouble, but I didn't expect Wang Pi to be so cautious, and I didn't see Fu Kui personally ordering and refused to cooperate; I also contacted Li Jiajie and Yu Tianqi in the name of Fu Kui, so that Tianxuan entered the palace to assassinate him, and wanted to force Fu Kui to comply. Who would have expected that the Jin Dynasty mission would assassinate Pei Shengqin at that time and take the suspicion for Fu Kui; I also ordered Tianxuan to kidnap Fu Kui and wanted to coerce him, but he was born with divine powers, but he turned against the guest and took my army, so that I didn't dare to design him again for several months. ”

"But ......" Fu Yang tilted his head and smiled slightly: "Does my former prince brother really think that after three setbacks, I won't be able to drag him into the water?" ”

The shadow laughed and said, "It seems that the Lord has a plan. ”

Fu Yang laughed: "One night in Wujiang Mountain, Ah Fu lost more than a thousand cronies, these people can't die in vain." I want Fu Kui not to stay out of it, and in the end I can only make a wedding dress for me, and fulfill my kingship in the world! ”

The shadow knelt down and bowed: "That is the case, Weichen will congratulate my emperor long live, long live." ”

The master and servant looked at each other and laughed wildly.

After a long time, Fu Yang said: "The puppet emperor Fu Jian only forbade me to leave the mansion, but he didn't stop me from feasting, right?" ”

"Having said that, it's just that there is a deacon of the Blue Fly Division outside the mansion to monitor, but anyone who enters the mansion to attend the banquet, the puppet emperor will know." The shadow thought that Fu Yang was planning to invite the people from the rivers and lakes who came to Beijing for an appointment, so he couldn't help but dissuade him tactfully.

"Heh, I'm not inviting those people from the rivers and lakes, I'm setting up a banquet this time, what if the puppet emperor knows?" Fu Yang smiled coldly and said, "Tell me to go down and go to the Zitong Mansion to seal the invitation to Pei Shengqin, and this king will invite Pei Hou to a banquet!" ”
