427 Rest in Peace, I

The last time Liu Bei was confined, after Liu Hong ordered him to be released, he also paid attention to him for a while. It's just that it didn't take long for him to drop out of the martial arts hall, and Liu Hong felt that he had left the army, and he would definitely not be able to toss any storms, so he didn't continue to pay attention to him. Therefore, he was so surprised now that he knew that Liu Bei had formed a mercenary group.

"Made, this guy is really a little strong, he can come out again like this!"

Liu Hong has long experienced the tenacity of these historical celebrities. After all, in another time and space, the Yuan Shao brothers, he took a lot of effort to clean up. Now that he saw Liu Bei coming up again, he was a little surprised, and he returned to normal.

"Since this guy has mixed up with the mercenary pile, I will set up a mercenary group this time, in addition to monitoring other mercenaries, another main task is to monitor this guy!" Thinking of this, Liu Hong smiled, "I didn't expect that I came to see the excitement on a whim, and I had such a big harvest!" ”

Although Liu Hong doesn't care much about the money made in this auction, he can't solve two "hidden dangers" at once, and he can't be excited.

"Okay, if I stay here any longer, I won't gain anything, I'd better go back quickly and form a mercenary group!" Thinking of this, Liu Hong didn't stay anymore and went back to the palace directly.

For Liu Hong, forming a mercenary group is a fairly simple matter. However, for the selection of the leaders of these two mercenary groups, Liu Hong made it difficult.

The candidate for the head of the mercenary group is easy to choose, but it is difficult to choose, and it is almost as difficult as climbing to the sky. In order not to let people have anything to do with the royal family, this candidate can't be too close to him. And if this regimental commander wants to be in charge of the mercenary group for him, he must be loyal enough to him. And as the head of the regiment. It is also necessary to have sufficient military literacy or something, which is definitely not an easy task to pick two such characters at once.

Liu Hong pondered repeatedly, for several days, although he thought of several candidates, he just couldn't make up his mind.

"These people are all quite suitable, and they are all historical figures. But these people, all of them stay in the army, enjoying the high-ranking officials, are they willing to give up all this. What about joining those mercenary groups? After all, as long as you are a person, you can see that staying in the army is much more promising than a mercenary group. ”

In fact, Liu Hong also knew that as long as he said it, those people would definitely give up everything now. Join the mercenary group without regrets. But the more this is the case, the more unbearable Liu Hong becomes.

Liu Hong is not the truth party of later generations. Good at sacrificing the interests of one's own people. So. He had to think of a way to get the best of both worlds, which would solve the hidden dangers and at the same time not let those who were loyal to him suffer.

"Otherwise, I'll set up a special department in the army. Those people were discharged from the army on the surface, but in fact they were all transferred to this department. As long as this department is kept secret, I think it will be possible to keep it secret. "Come to think of it. Liu Hong shook his head, "It's not enough to just set up a department in the army, since it is two mercenary groups, then a department under the direct management of the emperor should also be established in the imperial family." Separate the two mercenary groups completely! ”

"That's it, a mercenary group is under the direct jurisdiction of the commander of the Military Aircraft Department, and a mercenary group is directly under the jurisdiction of the secretary general of the secretariat, so that the secrets of the mercenary group can be guaranteed to the greatest extent!"

Thinking of this, Liu Hong found the candidates for the head of the regiment in his mind and explained this special task to them.

Although they are discharged from the army on the surface, in fact, they are still people in the army, and they will have all the credit they deserve, and they will be richly compensated. So, the personnel accepted the assignment very happily. And Liu Hong also happily let Huang Gai and Yan Yan serve as the head of each regiment and go to form a mercenary group.

Of course, it is impossible for Liu Hong to let them be the commander of the light pole, so he also allocated a lot of people to them. Most of these people are looking for them in the special forces. After all, the training of special forces is difficult, the task is difficult, and if you are a little older, it is not suitable to stay in it anymore. Now that the special forces have been established for so many years, many people are no longer suitable for staying in the special forces, so they are just arranged in the mercenary group, which can not only keep secrets, but also improve the strength of the mercenary group.

Liu Hong happily formed a mercenary group, but he didn't know that he was sending troops abroad and auctioning muskets, which had already attracted the attention of the three superpowers, Kushan, Anxi, and Rome. In particular, his king Vologis IV instinctively felt that this Han action would pose a threat to his empire.

"What is the idea of the Great Han this time, and he is too powerful now, they want to have bad intentions towards the Empire, how can I avoid it?" Vologis IV thought about it as he lit a spiced cigar.

After a while, the effect of the white powder became apparent, and Vologis IV closed his eyes, enjoying the intense pleasure while pondering how to solve the problem.

Vologis IV is special, under the effect of white powder, his mind is clearer, and his thinking will become faster. Therefore, it didn't take much effort for him to understand Liu Hong's intentions.

"The emperor of the Han Dynasty sent troops to me this time, and he must be planning to colonize me!"

Due to the prevalence of commerce and trade, the exchanges between the Han and other empires were greatly strengthened. Coupled with the popularization of telegraphs and telephones, all kinds of news spread very quickly, so this Vologis IV was very familiar with this colonial policy implemented by Liu Hong. There was even a time when he wanted to follow the example of the Han and colonize outward. It's a pity that around his country, there are either Kushan or Rome, and the Han people in the distance, none of which are worse than their empire, and in the end he can only give up this idea.

"Emperor of the Han Dynasty, although I admit that you are indeed very remarkable, but you also underestimate me!"

Since Liu Hong ascended the throne, as long as it is a country bordering him, he has almost perished. And even if he is far away, he uses a colonial policy to rule, how can an emperor like Vologis IV not guard against Liu Hong. However, in the past, Vologis IV had always believed that the Great Han was too far away from resting, and even if the Great Han did it against them, it would be countless years later. Therefore, he agreed to build a railway from the Han to them, just to use the power of the Han to enhance their national strength. But he didn't expect that before the railway was completed, Dahan was already planning to do something to them.

"Since the Great Han wants to colonize us, he will definitely use the power of some people in our empire, and I must stop this matter first!" Vologis IV took a hard puff of his cigar and made up his mind, he wanted to clean up the instability in his country first, "The relationship between Prince Anqing and the Han is too close, and he must not be left behind, this clean-up, let's start with him first!" ”

To get rid of his son, Vologis IV was also quite unbearable. But for the sake of the future of the empire, he couldn't help but do it, so as soon as he gritted his teeth, he called his chief guard in and asked him to arrest his son, Prince Anqing.

Hearing the king's order, the chief of the guard felt a huge shock in his heart, "What's going on, why did Your Majesty want to arrest the prince for no reason?" ”

Over the years, the Persian prince has received great benefits through the white powder trade. And he also knew that there were many people staring at his position as the crown prince, so after making a profit, he began to gather people everywhere. And this chief of guard is the one he focuses on.

The huge investment of the Persian prince was finally not in vain, and the chief of the guard sent someone to inform Anqing before leading his troops to capture Anqing.

"What, my father wants to arrest me?!"

Anqing, who was notified, was immediately anxious. Ever since he ascended to the throne, the Persian prince had clearly felt his father's alienation from him, and no matter how hard he tried, his father had not changed. Now that his father has ordered him to be arrested, is this still questionable, it must be that his father can't tolerate him and wants to do something to him.

The prince of Persia was not a good man, otherwise, he would not have traveled thousands of miles twice to go to Dahan in person. Now that he knew that his father was going to deal with him, he could not sit idly by.

"Father, you forced me to do this, so it's no wonder I'm going to do it!" As soon as the Persian prince gritted his teeth, he made up his mind and broke off with his father.

In the past few years of development, the Persian prince has secretly gathered a huge force, and now he is ruthless, and immediately gathered all his forces. All the people who came to arrest him were detained.

"Father, since you want to arrest me, I'll go and see what kind of medicine you sell in your gourd!" The Persian prince replaced all the guards with his men, and he followed the chief of the guards to the palace.

Seeing that the Persian prince was brought in, Vologis IV's tears fell, "Wang'er, it's not that your father can't tolerate you, if you want to blame, blame you for being too close to the Han." If we leave you behind, our country will be in danger. ”

"Father, just for me to get close to the big man, you can't tolerate me?" Hearing this, the Persian prince's heart was broken, "Father, if I hadn't moved to Dahan to rescue the soldiers, I don't know what our country would be like now." Now that the crisis has passed, you actually think that I am getting closer to the big man? ”

"Wang'er, you may think that this is unfair to you. But I am the emperor of this country, and I must be responsible for this country! As he spoke, Vologis IV took out a small porcelain vase and said, "Wang'er, this is a poison that seals the throat with blood, and if you take it, you will die, and you will not feel pain, this is the last thing your father can do for you!"
