The young master and the supervisor called the two to ask, and sure enough, the iron spear that fell out was lost after Zhou Zhan led his troops to attack the Ming Palace, and it was actually lost in the battalion, and the young master knew about it very well, but he thought it was a small accident and did not report it to heaven. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After hearing this, Zhou Bian couldn't help but be angry, and he specially instructed him, but he didn't think about it, but he was still negligent by his subordinates, and he was still a serious minister, Zhou Bian couldn't help but scold a few times.

The young master also understood the before and after of the matter at this time, but he didn't expect that a little thing he neglected would attract 20,000 Korean troops. The young master was full of self-blame, kowtowed, choked and shouted, "Please punish the king!" ”

Looking at the white-haired young master's body kneeling on the ground trembling slightly, and there seemed to be wet marks on the ground, Zhou Bian was also a little unbearable, and stretched out his hand to help him up, "Okay, this king won't say more, this time you will be fined a thousand yuan, just pay attention to it in the future, how about it?" ”

Unexpectedly, the young master was full of tears, "The minister is terrified, please surrender the title of the minister to apologize for the royal family." ”

"Forget about the demotion of the lord, in fact, Guo Heng said that it is serious, if you really fancy the iron spear, you can come to the royal family to discuss, and Guo Heng is the same, and you don't have to raise a large army to attack, but you can't get the iron spear technique." Zhou Bian explained, in fact, since Guo Heng left, Zhou Bian thought of this.

The young master was stunned for a moment, but then bowed his head, "Don't enlighten the old man, the old man is guilty." However, this matter cannot be left as such, and it can be immediately inquired about one by one in the army, and be sure to ask the person who sent the spear point. ”

Seeing that the young master refused to forgive himself, Zhou Bian didn't say anything more, but shook his head, "This is not necessary, I know who the person who went to see Han Hou with the tip of the spear is." ”

"Who is it?" The crowd was shocked.

"Do you remember when General Long claimed that the property in the house had been stolen?"

Could it be that General Long did it, but looking at the old general's bright and upright appearance, it doesn't look like it, so some of the people nodded, and some shook their heads. Nodding his head naturally meant that he remembered the matter, but shaking his head was defending Old General Long.

"This king is talking about the soldiers who were punished by the royal family for appeasing the anger of General Long. Among them, one was crippled, and later was still on the Luoyang market, left to fend for himself? ”

Oh, it turned out to be this person, and everyone nodded, "This person really hates the royal family, and he also has access to the iron spear under Zhou Zhan's men, and it is very likely that he wants to steal one." ”

So the ministers condemned this man one after another, claiming that there were many people who wanted to take this person's life.

Zhou Bian also nodded, "This person's life, the royal family will get it." In fact, after thinking of this possibility, Zhou Bian couldn't hate it at all, saying that he had indeed wronged them at the beginning, and this lame man was only disgusted by Zhou Bian because he casually identified stealing Longfu property as a companion in advance in order to get rid of his crimes, so he ordered to be beaten to death. But in the end, this person is indeed not a crippled crime, and it is indeed extremely sad to live on the streets and beg for a living afterwards.

So he wanted to order an assassin to assassinate this person, but Zhou Bian himself first vetoed it in his heart, but at this time, the crowd was angry, and it was not convenient to say it immediately.

However, another matter was decided after convening the ministers to discuss it, and that was Guo Heng's proposal. The royal family decided to cooperate with the Guo family and become arms dealers.

After the matter is settled, Bai Gui and them will naturally work hard and make further contact with Guo Heng, believing that they will strive for the greatest benefits for the royal family.

And Zhou Bian also has his own busy affairs, although the battle of Gongyi was a big victory, but the royal army also suffered large casualties. In the afternoon, Zhou Bian chose several families close to Luoyang, went to the door to offer condolences, and personally distributed bereavement benefits.

But the painful cry of the loss of relatives could not be shaken out of his mind, although the accompanying guards stopped, but the soft crying of covering his mouth was even more distressing. If it can be avoided, who would be willing to give their lives to their people? Zhou Bian returned to Luoyang sullenly, but repeatedly told Taishi and others to do a good job in comforting their families, and to open a new school in Luoyang City to take in orphans and widows born in the war.

A few more days have passed, but fortunately, there is still no news of any movement of the Korean army, everything in South Korea is calm, and I don't know what Han Hou is thinking. However, Zhou Bian was relieved, because Han Hou had lost the best opportunity to pursue Luoyang, and now the repair of the Luoyang city wall has entered the end, Zhou Bian is also ready to continue to strengthen and install the female wall, and the thousands of new recruits have also been trained, all of which were completed in just twenty days, and the speed is really unbelievable.

However, Zhou Bian still did not relax his vigilance, and the spies scattered all over South Korea were monitoring every move of the South Korean army's barracks day and night, and they would report back as soon as there was news.

After a few days of bargaining, the royal family provided a few more samples, and after winning Guo Heng's approval, the business with the Guo family was finally settled, and the other industries of the royal family, the Guo family provided smelted iron ingots, and the royal family provided iron spear tips, iron swords and other things according to two-thirds of the weight of the iron ingots, and the Guo family needed to pay 1,000 yuan for each iron spear tip, and the Guo family needed to pay 2,000 yuan for each iron sword. Although I don't know how much the Guo family sells, but since he paid such a high price, there must be someone who pays the more expensive price, and the wealth of the princes and powerful countries can be seen, thinking of this, Zhou Bian couldn't help but sigh, when will my royal family be so rich.

But soon the royal family also had money, and after agreeing that the Guo family was not allowed to sell it in South Korea, the Guo family's first deposit was paid, which was actually the full amount of 1,000 spear tips, 10,000 yuan. The Guo family is really generous, and they can mobilize such a huge amount of money so quickly, but I am afraid that the local Guo branch in Luoyang will have a lot of deposits here, so it seems that the Guo family is rich and rivals the country.

And Guo Heng only took ten spear tips, claiming that the remaining 990 could be produced by the royal family and then delivered, and the time was not limited. In this way, the pressure on the royal family was greatly relieved, after all, the situation of the Korean army is unclear now, and Zhou Bian does not want to immediately deliver so many weapons to outsiders. But then again, this Guo family is really atmospheric, and if one million is handed over like this, aren't you afraid that the royal family will regret it? Thinking of this, Zhou Bian was also curious about the legendary Guo Zong, how bold is this to be able to do business to such a point.

But after all, it is the royal family who earns it, and with this huge amount of money in the warehouse, the confidence of the royal family hardened, so the reward of the Gongyi War was rewarded like flowing water, and the whole Luoyang City was talking about it, but I was afraid that it would be more envy.

Taking the opportunity of Gongyi's victory, Zhou Bian rewarded the ministers again, and spent 200,000 yuan, no matter how much, each family was full of joy, and I didn't want to do it at this time, but there was a discordant voice coming, but it was General Long who resigned and was ready to move away.

Inside the palace, Zhou Bian received the white-haired and bearded old general.

"King!" After saluting respectfully, General Long said, "The old man is too old to bear the heavy responsibility of defending the city, and the child is too young to inherit the position of the old man. And the old man's nephew was in Anyi, Wei State, and he had already asked the old man to go to Luoyang to take care of him. The old man's intention is the same, not to dislike Luoyang, but to enjoy the joy of serving future generations, and to ask the king for permission! ”

Although this reason is far-fetched, but General Long's intention to leave is resolute, and after some retention, Zhou Bian finally agreed, anyway, this person is also dispensable, and nothing is always more beneficial than something.

General Long kowtowed again, "The king, I wanted to resign to my king a few days ago, but the Han army attacked, and I didn't dare to abandon Luoyang and settle down at this time of crisis, so I only proposed it now." Moreover, although Long is in Anyi, he has always been my Luoyang native, and after a hundred years, his remnants will return to Luoyang. ”

Everyone has their own ambitions, as long as it is not very important, Zhou Bian will naturally not force it. However, what he didn't expect was that within a few days, General Long would have dealt with everything in Luoyang, even the old mansion was sold, and he took more than 200 domestic servants and dozens of carts on the road to the north, and his speed was really like fleeing.

Zhou Bian didn't send it, but he rewarded him with 10,000 yuan, how to say that he was also a local minister in Luoyang. If it was normal, Zhou Bian naturally wanted to pay attention to why the Long clan moved away in a hurry, but at this time, Zhou Bian was attracted by more important things, that is, the Korean army in South Korea began to move. Over the past few days, multiple pieces of intelligence have shown that tens of thousands of troops are being mobilized from the southeastern border of South Korea to the Korean capital of Sinzheng.

This Han Hou still didn't give up, fortunately withstood the pressure and did not immediately return the borrowed house slaves of the Luoyang nobles, Zhou Bian couldn't help but be a little secretly happy. After summoning the ministers, the whole city of Luoyang immediately began to be busy again, and the joy of the great victory had disappeared without a trace at this moment.

At the same time, the news of Gongyi's victory had just arrived in Linzi.

In the center of Linzi City, there is a luxurious and tall palace group, which occupies a wide area, and the tall building is not inferior to the Luoyang Palace, but the luxury degree is far better. As far as the eye can see, densely packed, one after another are cornices and cliffs, the cyan palace roof shines with a sense of simple luxury, and the savings of hundreds of years of powerful countries are presented in front of the world here.

In the luxurious and atmospheric main hall, the middle-aged Marquis of Qi sits on it, and the hall is full of Qi courtiers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have all heard about the matter of Luoyang, Han Hou dared to offend my king, and my Qi Tian clan was deeply favored by the king, should I save it or not? If so, when will the troops be sent? ”

"Your Majesty, Kuang Fu royal family, Shen Dayi in the world, is the cause of Qi Huan and Jin Wen in the past. A few years ago, Tian Ping visited the royal family on behalf of my lord, and asked for a fang uncle for my lord but couldn't, but now it is the right time, if my Qi division can drive away the Han army and magnify the royal family, then the position of Fang Bo, the name of the princes, will be obtained! As soon as Qi Hou's words fell, a beautiful young scholar flashed out of the hall, and when everyone saw it, it turned out to be Zou Ji, who was known as a ghost.

These words were dignified, but Qi Hou shook his head slightly.

After Zou Ji retreated, he stepped forward with a young scholar and said, "Your Majesty, the minister Duan Ganming thinks that if you don't save it." ”

Qi Hou was suddenly interested, "Oh, joke, but why?" ”

"Your Majesty, first, the royal family did not send anyone to ask for help, and now our spies have reported the news, if the royal family comes, it should have arrived as soon as possible, since the royal family does not need it, why should we work hard to mobilize the people? Second, His Majesty thinks that the royal family has enough ability to protect itself, and the combat power of the royal army may exceed our expectations. ”

"What do you mean by that?" This is not only Qi Hou, but the whole hall is interested.

"Intelligence said that Wang's army attacked with 10,000 enemy South Korean troops of 20,000, and beheaded nearly 10,000 Korean soldiers. However, not long ago, Tian Ping returned to his life, and a spy reported that the royal family had a total of nearly 10,000 troops. Judging from the time when the royal family returned to Luoyang and the size of Luoyang City, this number should be credible. And when the Korean army attacked, how could the royal family let Luoyang have no troops to defend, and pour all its troops to Gongyi to meet the enemy? You must know that there are many nobles in Luoyang City who are not subject to the royal family. 10,000 people had to defend Luoyang, and they had to be dispersed into Zhou, Mengjin, and Jinjin, so the ministers thought that the maximum force that the royal family could use was 5,000 people. Although the beheading of 10,000 people is an exaggeration, it can force back the 20,000 Korean army with 5,000 people, which shows the combat power of the royal army. Duan Ganming said slowly.

As soon as Duan Ganming's words fell, there was a lot of discussion in the hall, and it didn't stop until a quarter of an hour later.

"The widow has decided that my division will not move, but we need to pay attention to the affairs of Luoyang at all times, and as soon as there is any movement, the widow must hear the news in the shortest possible time." Qi Hou's deep voice made the final conclusion.

"No!" The sound of neat consent echoed in the tall hall.

also just received the news of Gongyi's victory, as well as Liyang in the west.

Liyang City is in the east of Qi Zhou, the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the west of the Hexi land of the Wei State invaded the Qin State, which is a strategic place, and it is said in the history books, but Rong Di in the north, and the three Jin Dynasty in the east. At this time, it was the capital of Qin, and now the Duke of Qin is good at martial arts, and after succeeding to the throne, in order to facilitate the defense of Wei, he moved the capital to the forefront of Qin and Wei, and there is a great intention of not dying.

In the slightly humble palace, a young man's voice came out, "Father, father, father! ”

"Why not?" Embraced by his own crown prince Yingquliang, the Qin Gongshi who was covered in clothes yelled, "Now that the royal family is humiliated, it is the opportunity for my Qin Shi to go east, why not?" ”

It is said that as soon as the Duke of Qin heard that the Han army had attacked the royal family, he immediately took the halberd, put on the armor of the whole body, and went out to gather the army to go out. In fact, this Liyang is not so much the national capital, but rather a military town, even the palace is more like a barracks, there are Qin Gong, who is determined to recover the land of Hexi, which is not difficult to understand.

"I have a relationship with the royal family, and I don't want the royal family to get into trouble. But didn't the royal army defeat the Korean army in Gongyi, and besides, my Qin State had just formed an alliance with Korea, and immediately crusaded against it, I was afraid that I would please the royal family, but I lost the hearts of the princes of the world, and the gains outweighed the losses, my father! Besides, our main enemy is the Wei State, so let's wait and see what happens! ”

"Well, that's fine." After being persuaded for a long time, the Duke of Qin dropped the halberd and sighed, when will the old Qin people take back Hexi and remove the shame imposed by the Wei State!

Luoyang can be said to have attracted the attention of the princes of the world, but before the Han army had a big move, an incident happened in the city of Anyi in Wei State, but it suddenly shifted the focus of the world's attention to himself, and it also led to the beginning of a new round of disputes between the countries.
