The great victory of Melan City shook the whole world with the spread of the news. The capitals of the cities also saw that Duan Lang had become a big trend, and the Zhao royal family was no longer able to return to the sky. After receiving the invitation, even the cities that did not take refuge in Duan Lang set off one after another and rushed to Xiadu Mansion to assemble.

Half a month later, Beiming Moro and other countries received the news belatedly. The surprise of the lord of Beiming Hongshi also contained remorse, he didn't know his daughter, and he didn't recognize Beiming's maiden family. Although Great Xia was ravaged by war, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and Great Xia still had a strong population base and a vast fat land. It only takes three or five years of cultivation and recuperation, and Great Xia can recover its vitality. Especially now that the bright moon of Tantai is powerful in all directions, even if he is the lord of the country, he is not as famous as his daughter. Tai Hongshi hesitated again and again, and finally decided to send the eldest prince Tantai Moli as an envoy to Xiadu Mansion to meet the bright moon of Tantai.

In Dawan City, the capital of Xiyue, after receiving the news of Lu Mu's defeat, the lord Zhou Zhongde lost his hair in a few days. Zhou Zhongde was in an expedited manner for 800 miles, and Lu Mu immediately returned to the court to discuss matters. Zhou Zhongde did not want to hold Lu Mu responsible for the defeat, but to consider that after the defeat with Great Xia, there was a fear that there would be a war on the northern Moro border. With today's plan, the border of Great Xia has the dual guarantee of Landu City and Liangjie Mountain, and Zhou Zhongde is not worried that Duan Lang will be able to enter. However, the Moro Kingdom on the northern border can only let Lu Mu hurry over to suppress the position.

In Nanping, the lord of the country, Song Yucheng, received a secret report from Feiyu and learned that Mo Kun had died with the army, and he was immediately frightened and overwhelmed. As soon as the news was announced, those families who originally wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Mo Kun also felt that a catastrophe was coming. Zhao Pingdu and Ying Shoushan had not yet returned from Great Xia, and the lord Song Yucheng hurriedly mobilized 20,000 horses to strengthen the defense of Wuling Pass. Now no one dares to think about encroaching on the territory of Great Xia anymore, even if Xining City does not have a single soldier, Nanping does not dare to occupy it for himself. Song Yucheng was worried that once Duan Lang was angered, he would let the army of Lidu City go straight to Nanping Fudi. Therefore, he would rather stick to Wuling Pass than dare to occupy an extra inch of Daxia land.

At this time, in the western part of Great Xia, Duan Lang's army rubbed the edge of the desert and came to Dingluo County. Liu Xusheng, who had already received the news, took the people of the capital city to greet him outside the county early. The arrival of the army made the people burst into cheers. Everyone was looking forward to the moment when they could finally return home.

Liu Xusheng clenched his fists and arched his hands, with a bright smile on his face, "The last general, Liu Xusheng, welcome Duan Shuai's arrival." ”

Duan Lang jumped off the war horse and grabbed Liu Xusheng, "Xusheng, why are you tanned more than me." How about it, the families of the brothers and the folks of the capital city are all right. ”

Liu Xusheng smiled happily, "Everything is fine, Lu Mu's kid didn't dare to come here, he didn't even dare to stay in Lidu City, and directly led his troops to Landu City." ”

After Liu Xusheng finished speaking, he clenched his fists at the Mingyue and said, "The last general will see the military master." ”

"Brother Xusheng, don't come unharmed, you have worked hard." Yutai Mingyue also got off the war horse.

Liu Xusheng looked at Zhou Long, Zhou Wu, Lu Zhengshan and others, and happily stepped forward and hugged a few times. This war has lasted for more than a year, and it is not easy to survive several major wars. Although the time of separation is not very long, Liu Xusheng sees the brothers at this moment, but it is like a world away.

Duan Lang and Tantai Mingyue greeted the villagers, and in the cheers of the people, the soldiers and horses entered the temporary camp.

Running all the way, Duan Lang let the soldiers relax a little. In the temporary tent, Duan Lang and the others did not relax, they were studying the plan to attack the Landu City. Since Landu City also had a secret passage into the city, Duan Lang and Tangtai Mingyue didn't think that this battle would be difficult.

After the battle was discussed, Tantai Mingyue looked at Liu Xusheng and said, "Brother Xusheng, when we go to attack the Landu City, you will return to the Lidu City with the villagers." The grain harvest in Wuliang City and Xuanhua City is good, and some of the grain stored in the desert is temporarily taken out and distributed to the people of Lidu City. The rest can be transported to Xiadu Province for unified arrangement. Many of the cities in Bactria need to be rebuilt, and there are many more victims of the war who need to be resettled. When we come back from Landu City, we will go to Xiadu Mansion together. ”

Liu Xusheng said in a humming voice, "This year's harvest in Dingluo County is also good, and the villagers have reclaimed a lot of wasteland, although they are not self-sufficient, they are not much worse. Duan Lang, this time when you go back to Xiadu Mansion, shouldn't you also consider which city to set up the national capital? After all, Kyoto is the Kyoto of the Zhao family, and once the Zhao family's royal family is destroyed, it will be a little unlucky to become a country there. If you want me to say, it's better to set up in Chengyang Mansion. It can be used to take care of the east and west, and it can also be avoided from the fighting. If you want to set up a national capital, I think it's a very suitable place. ”

Duan Lang was stunned, "I really haven't thought about this, I've been thinking about Lu Mu's bastard in my mind recently, how can I think about anything else." What's more, I didn't say I wanted to be an emperor. When the war is over, don't bother me, I really need to rest for a while. ”

Liu Xusheng said with a smile, "You don't need to think about these things, with Li Jianshan in Chengyang Mansion, it is estimated that he will think about it very comprehensively." By the way, how is Jianshan doing now? I heard that he was also seriously injured. ”

Speaking of Li Jianshan, Duan Lang sighed slightly, "This is all the sin created by Feng Zhun and Zhu Wenjun, Brother Jianshan's legs are completely crippled." ”

When Liu Xusheng heard this, a sour feeling suddenly rose in his heart. Liu Xusheng sighed slightly, and said sadly, "Alas, Jin Ge Iron Horse is hot in blood, and it would be good to survive." Duan Lang, be careful when you go to Landu City, and you must not suffer any major losses after victory. ”

Duan Lang nodded silently, looking at Zhou Long, Zhou Wu and the others, Duan Lang was also silently praying in his heart. The decisive battle has been won, and he does not want to see his brother lost again in the closing stages.

Just when Duan Langbing sent out the capital, Xiadu Mansion City became very lively. Li Jianshan was the closest to Xiadu Mansion and came to the city in advance. Yin Zhang Guangzhi, the governor of Xiadu Prefecture, was full of red light, and almost every day, there were officials from other prefectures and cities. In order to welcome the officials of the capital of the world, Zhang Guangzhi specially convened the big businessmen in the city to discuss the meeting, and vacated several better mansions for reception. And Zhang Guangzhi's mansion is completely renovated inside and out, waiting to welcome Duan Lang and others to move in.

More than ten days later, Zhang Ruming, Pang Gang and others came to Xiadu Mansion with a large group of wounded soldiers. Outside the city gate, Li Jianshan sat on a push chair and led all the dignitaries in the city to greet him.

Zhang Ruming got out of the car and waved his little fat hand to greet everyone. Zhang Guangzhi took the government officials and knelt down. In any case, Zhang Guangzhi was the first to swear allegiance to the gods, and in the face of Shangguan Xuanwu, who was a divine envoy, he had to bow down to greet him.

"I'll wait for the members of the Xiadu Mansion to greet Shangguan Heavenly Master."

Zhang Ruming hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Zhang Guangzhi up, "Lord Zhang, get up, the gods will definitely bless you." ”

After Zhang Ruming greeted everyone, he came to Li Jianshan, "I said Jianshan, you are still the best, now don't say that the emperor has to bow down with you when he sees you, even if the gods descend to earth, you don't have to kneel and worship." ”

Li Jianshan scolded with a smile, "Shut your crow's mouth, you have the ability to do the same to me, let's be a companion." Get out of the way, I have to give a salute to Master Pang Gang and Master Fan. ”

Pang Gang, Jiang Zhuming and others were greeting Zhang Guangzhi, and when they heard this, Pang Gang smiled heartily, "Lord Li doesn't have to be polite, the old man is already a cloth cloth, how dare you let Lord Li see it." ”

Everyone greeted Li Jianshan with a smile, and everyone knew that Li Jianshan was one of the troika of the capital city. Duan Lang is in charge of the army, Yutai Mingyue is making suggestions, and Li Jianshan is in charge of large and small government affairs, which can be said to be the busiest person in the Lidu City system. If Duan Lang sits on the throne, the phase of the head of the hundred officials is none other than Li Jianshan. As for the divine envoy Shangguan Xuanwu, his status is somewhat extraordinary, even comparable to the position of the emperor.

Zhang Ruming and others welcomed into the city in a grand ceremony, and the soldiers and horses entered the camp, and Li Jianshan did not follow to the palace, but came to the camp to see the brothers. Knowing that Huang Zhi, Wang Fuzhong and others were heroic and heroic, Li Jianshan's mood was also very heavy. He had a deeper affection for these generals who were the first to join the capital.

The arrival of Zhang Ruming and others made Xiadu Mansion very lively. In the following days, officials from all over the country arrived one after another, and even Cui Zhiliang, Feng Ming, Wei Du and others also came to Xiadu Mansion from Xuanhua City, Wuliang City.

The generals reunited after a long absence, and the twelve generals of the former capital city are now missing Geng Zhishan, Huang Zhi, Wang Fuzhong and others. Moreover, Yan Facheng and Chen Zhanxuan are still being treated in Molan City, and their lives and deaths are still uncertain. Feng Ming and Wei Du's two veterans were even more emotional, they were Fang Jiye's old department, when Landu City fell, no one would have thought that one day, the army of Lidu City would be able to control the world.

Zhang Ruming received visits from officials every day, and it was lively at first, but he couldn't stand it after a few days. Zhang Ruming simply threw away his hands and ignored them, happily at ease, and handed over all the burdens to Li Jianshan to deal with.

In the palace, the most headache for Li Jianshan was not the reception of the dignitaries, but the fact that Jiang Zhuming and others were urged to ask about the establishment of the capital all day long. Duan Lang has not returned yet, these people seem to be more anxious than him, and the noise makes Li Jianshan's brain hurt.

After a busy day, Li Jianshan was just about to take a breath, when he saw Zhang Ruming, who was full of alcohol, walking in with He Lianjia. Since returning to Shun, He Lianjia has been following Cui Zhiliang to stay in Wuliang City. Now that the world is settled, he also followed him to Xiadu Mansion.

As soon as he saw He Lianjia, Li Jianshan couldn't help complaining, "I said Lao He, don't follow him around, can you help me block those local officials." ”

"Jianshan, don't think I'm easy, I'm not like you, I'm surrounded by people every day. By the way, when will Duan Lang come back, is there any news? He Lianjia asked.

Li Jianshan glanced at Zhang Ruming, "You have to ask him about this, the information transmission is our Shangguan Lord." ”

Zhang Ruming rolled his eyes, "My wife followed me to Lidu City, how do I know when they will return." I went back and asked the scout camp to see if they had received any news. ”

Li Jianshan smiled bitterly, "Nonsense, they received the news yesterday, and because they couldn't find you, they sent the news to me." I said, Fat Zhang, can you still do something serious? ”

"Fuck, Lao Tzu drinks with those generals every day, isn't this the right thing. Otherwise, they will come and pester you every day, and you kid will have even more headaches. ”

"Okay, okay, I won't argue with you. Lao He, Duan Lang's side has already taken Landu City. However, Lu Muna's kid is not in the city. According to the news, Zheng Bi led the remnants of the defeated army to flee into the defense of the Two Realms Mountain, and Duan Lang temporarily handed over the Landu City to Zhou Wu to garrison, and they were on their way back. I estimate that it will be at least twenty days away. ”

He Lianjia nodded and looked at the two of them, "I said, there are no outsiders here, we are all old buddies who were with Duan Lang in Yushan Pass back then." Since there are still twenty days to go, I think it's time to discuss the establishment of the country and the enthronement. The governors of the various cities are waiting for news, and only if we take action can we reassure them. ”

Zhang Ruming waved his hand, "I agree!" ”

Li Jianshan thought for a while, "Don't just agree with the two of you, this matter must be done together." Since the two of you have said this, let's discuss it, draw up a roster, and everyone's division of labor must be implemented. ”

"Okay, then let's talk about it now." He Lianjia hurriedly took out pen and ink and other things.

The three of them began to seriously discuss the matter of Duan Lang's accession to the throne, from Pang Gang Fancheng to Jiang Zhuming and others, everyone carried out a detailed division of labor. Li Jianshan deserved to be the chief administrator of the capital city, and according to the prestige characteristics of each person, he made a detailed list. It can be said that this roster is not only the preparatory personnel before the founding of the country and the enthronement, but also the roster of court members after the founding of the country.

Early the next morning, Li Jianshan announced the roster and the division of labor for each person in the government office. Don't look at Li Jianshan, who is neither a minister nor a divine envoy, but the roster he announced, everyone takes it as seriously as if they had received a holy decree.

Xiadu Mansion was crowded with guests, and at this time, the Elephant City, which was not very far away, also ushered in a heavy guest. Wu Guangguang, the Xiangguo of Great Xia, did not go to Xiadu Mansion for the first time, but came to Yixiang City. After all, the titular emperor of Great Xia is now Deguang instead of Delong, even if Wu Guangguang wants to go to Xiadu Mansion on behalf of the court, he needs to come to Yixiang City to say to Deguang. What's more, Wu Guangguang wouldn't have appeared in Xiadu Mansion so early, he had to wait until Duan Lang arrived before he could appear. This is the pride of the literati, and it is also the dignity of the face of a country.

Just when the capitals of the world gathered in Xiadu City, merchants from all over the world also smelled business opportunities and went to Xiadu Mansion one after another. The city was overcrowded, and even many houses in the city were temporarily converted into inns.

In a small courtyard not far from the city gate, it was chartered by a salt merchant in the Xiding Sea. Unlike other merchants who chartered inns, this salt merchant did not open the door to welcome customers, or take the opportunity to get close to dignitaries from all over the world. They just closed the door and waited for Duan Lang to arrive. This so-called salt merchant boss is the head of the palace prison and the elder court. These palace guards also received the news that Duan Lang would come to Xiadu Mansion in 20 days.

Shuzang sat alone in the room, and in front of him was a holy decree that was not stamped with a jade seal. The top of the table was blank, and only the names of three people were written, each with a black cross on top of their name. Duan Lang's name bore the brunt, and the second name was Yutai Mingyue. And the last one is the seemingly harmless Shangguan Xuanwu.

Shuzang rolled up the decree and took out a fire sickle to light the decree. Looking at the flames, Shu Zang felt that these people, like this holy decree, were about to give their last lives to fulfill their vows. Shu Zang had already made detailed arrangements, and as soon as Duan Lang arrived, he would immediately implement the secret guard's assassination plan.

Shu Zang did not order to take action against Shangguan Xuanwu in advance, although it was easy to find an assassination opportunity these days, but Shu Zang was worried that killing Shangguan Xuanwu would alarm Duan Lang. When the time comes, Duan Lang will definitely be heavily protected. Therefore, their assassination plan must be carried out at the same time.
