When the time comes, I have to go.

At this time, it was already November, and it was very cold in the morning and evening, like winter; It's hot at noon, like summer.

There is an old locust tree next to the station of the West Chang'an Military District - very old. How old is it? It was half destroyed by shells, and only half of the trunk remained. The remaining half of the trunk required more than a dozen people to hold hands and hug each other.

Looking at its growth rings, there are probably hundreds of stripes. If you look at those rings, you know what happened back then. If the annual rings are thick, the wind and rain will be smooth that year; If the rings are thin, it will be a year of great drought; There are traces of string binding on the annual rings, which must be the year of great killing; There are traces of swords and axes on the annual rings, probably because of the mutiny of the imperial army; There are bullet marks on the annual rings, presumably there must have been a mutiny of the forbidden army; There is also a clear circle of scars on the most central ring, which shows that hundreds of years ago, when this old locust tree was a small locust tree, it was once tied up, but it still survived, and lived for hundreds of years; Last year, it was half blown up, but it still survived and still grew lush.

In late autumn in November, the west wind blows and leaves fall like snowflakes. It is said that leaf litter is a protective measure that trees have evolved to avoid water loss in winter. It is said that the sign of the fall of the leaves of trees is the deviation angle of sunlight, not the temperature of the day. It is said that in the far north, the trees there do not lose their leaves even at temperatures below zero. It is said that in the Far South, the trees do not shed their leaves all year round – in fact, there are no seasons and no direction.

I was thinking about these things when Wang Yuquan shouted to me in the armored car: "Let's go quickly!" Come back early when you're done. ”

I said, "Yes, early death is early and early transcendence." ”

So I got into the armored car.

The army marched north, against the flow of pilgrims.

Since the first two defeats, I have known that the charlatans and cults are not so easy to deal with.

There are a large number of people in the rivers and lakes and a long history, who knows what moths will be in the future.

In addition, I know that the Mongolian boss Cao Mu is really not easy to deal with. Although the imperial court has intelligence agencies such as the Secret Department, the Intelligence Department, the Jinyi Guard, the East Factory, and the West Factory, they really don't know anything about the plants and trees of Mongolia!

Sooner or later, these grassland people will be a big problem for the mainlanders, and the imperial court will not pay attention to it at all. Besides, that guy has long wanted to be the emperor! The Mongols were originally one against ten, and now that they are united, how will they deal with them in the future? The imperial court didn't come to fight the real Mongolia, but it competed with Liu Xingchao's Jinling!

Therefore, I brought all my belongings with me. Wang Yuquan and Zhang Kangning brought 13,000 forbidden troops, including hundreds of tanks, hundreds of armored vehicles, hundreds of cannons, thousands of trucks, and even the ten super weapons.

At the beginning, the Holy Land and Sichuan had already made it clear: "Some people in the mainland dare to use a super poison gas once, and they will be killed!" "Why do I have so much to do now!

Lu Chengzhi brought hundreds of thousands of brocade guards, all of them were cavalrymen, and they were all children of the scholar clan.

Dongfang Tian brought 500,000 Xiliang cavalry, which was the entire strength of Dongfang Yongbai.

As the "head of the rivers and lakes" appointed by the imperial court, I naturally have to bring a group of people from the rivers and lakes. However, most of them are unpopular Jianghu people, such as the Shaolin monk who was expelled for drinking flower wine, the Wudang disciple who was expelled for stealing things, the beggar disciple who was expelled because he was too poor, the eunuch disciple who was expelled for pretending to be a eunuch, the Emei disciple who was expelled for joining the Qinglou, and so on.

Hong Ah San and the others were too scared to come, so the only people I knew were Wan Wanbao and Ah Qiang. Cuong didn't want to come yet, but I got it because I said it was a bad idea.

Among these Jianghu people, I am most satisfied with the Five Poison Gang. They sent hundreds of thousands of main forces. Moreover, they invented a poison that greatly strengthened their strength. They extracted the soybean enzyme produced by the soybean fungus, and then mixed it with wheat, rice, rye, corn, oats, barley, millet, sorghum, barley, buckwheat and ten kinds of grains to ferment it to extract a highly poisonous drug, called "Ten Poison Powder". This poison is colorless and odorless, a single drop can poison hundreds of people, and there is no cure.

The army first passed through Liangzhou.

Dongfang Chengping didn't come, and his younger brother Dongfang Chengding came to meet us. Dongfang Yongbai took away half of Xiliang's troops, Dongfang Chengping was angry, and now the 500,000 Xiliang army under him passed by Xiliang, he was out of sight and out of mind. Dongfang Chengding and Dongfang Chengping look about the same, but their temperament is far behind. He said a bunch of things to me that I didn't know, and I said a bunch of things to him that I didn't know, and we parted.

The army continued northward and came to the territory of western Liaoning.

This time he was greatly welcomed, and Jin Yuguang came from afar with all the officials of Liaoxi.

Jin Yuguang held my and Lu Chengzhi's hands, and tears appeared in his eyes. He said: "Damn, I was beaten by Liaodong a few years ago, Liu Xingchao last year, and Mongolia this year!" One is fiercer than the other! I don't know how many pieces of music I sent to the Chang'an court, and Qian Zhaoding didn't care about me as that bastard. You're finally here this time. ”

He looked at my tank artillery and the army behind him with no end in sight, and nodded: "This time, I'll see how those Mongolian cavalry fight!" Those Mongol cavalry ran faster than us, shot farther with bows and arrows than us, fought better than us, and we suffered a lot! ”

I said, "Jinyiwei is one million, my army is more than 10,000, Xiliang is 500,000, and Liaodong also has a few million." Watch us sweep through Mongolia! ”

Jin Yuguang: "I heard that you are actually here to fight the cult, right?" ”

Me: "Don't worry, there is no such thing as a cult, they are all mental illnesses." It's like if you want to usurp power, you must be involved with some kind of royal descendant, the chosen one, or something. These bastards want to rebel, so they get involved with cults, gods, apocalypse, or something. Nothing strange. ”

Jin Yuguang: "I see that you are also tired, come to Liaojing to rest." ”

Me: "It's better to be respectful than to obey." ”

There are only 100 million people in western Liaoning, which is a small province in terms of population, but the area is not small, larger than the Central Plains. It's a grassland province, and the whole province is grassland. It is bordered by Hebei in the south, the Western Regions and Xiliang in the west, Liaodong in the east, and Mongolia in the north. The capital of western Liaoning Province is Liaojing City, in addition to Chengde, Fengning, Duolun, Mengnan four counties, under the jurisdiction of more than 200 counties.

At this time, the western Liaoning prairie is extremely beautiful! The grass is full of wildflowers of all colors, bees and butterflies are flying in the air, birds are bouncing in the grass, roe deer and yellow wolves are shuttling in it, and golden eagles hovering in the air and swooping from time to time. The stream was full of fatty fish, and the girl scooped it up, skewered it on a wooden stick and roasted it, and it was fragrant.

In this vast grassland, there is a city, which is Liaojing City.

This is a very strange thing, as a grassland people, the people of Liaoxi actually established a fixed city. This is also why the Mongols were able to plunder the Liaoxi people who were also steppe people at will. Mongolia came to attack Liaoxi, and as soon as it came, it attacked 200 county towns on the grassland, and if it could fight, it would fight, and if it couldn't, it would withdraw, and even if Liaoxi wanted to fight back against Mongolia, it could not find the main Mongolian force, because Mongolia had no city!

But now, the Mongols are finished! Because they dared to collude with the cult, they completely angered the imperial court. These millions of people are enough to plow Mongolia from beginning to end, and directly exterminate all Mongolians!

Although Liaojing is at the level of the provincial capital, it goes deep into the grassland, so the scale is not as good as Kaifeng, at most it is at the level of Anding County. There are more than a dozen main streets and dozens of districts in Liaojing City, with a total of one million people.

The army was encamped outside, and only a few went inside. The large army stationed outside was also well entertained, which was naturally not a problem.

The banquet was held in the compound of the Liaojing County Government.

In the middle is a row of roasted whole lambs, which are sizzling with a charcoal fire below. There are also all kinds of meat and milk wine on the table, and even there are few fruits and pasta, it seems that the people of Liaoxi are really bold.

Jin Yuguang sat in the main seat, and Zhu Mengsha sat next to him.

Zhu Mengsha, the former princess of Daming, was originally going to marry Jin Yuguang and his brother Jin Yuming, but unfortunately Jin Yuming was "killed by Jin Yuguang". When Zhu Mengsha saw the handsome and dashing Jin Yuming, she had already secretly agreed, so Jin Yuming "was killed by Jin Yuguang", she wanted to die or live and did not agree to pass on the short and obscene Jin Yuguang, but Emperor Zhu Honghua had to do this, and she had no choice but to do this.

But it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, "after Liu Xingchao's rebellion", except for Zhu Honghua, Sun Hongfeng, Li Hongsi, Zhu Mengzi, and Zhu Mengsha, all the more than 100 princes and princesses were killed by Liu Xingchao, and Zhu Mengsha was taken by the vigilant Jin Yuguang to flee for her life and survived.

Jin Yuguang is surrounded by young people, civil and military officials are quite young, and it seems that he has killed all the old people. This is very natural, once a son of heaven and a courtier, there is nothing strange. Kim Woo-kwang introduced his cousin Kim Woo-kyo to us. Jin Yujiao will take the Liaoxi Army to the north with us.

There are quite a few people on our side. I sat on the main seat with Lu Chengzhi and Dongfang Tian, and below me were Wang Yuquan, Zhang Kangning, and the group of Xiliang army commanders under Dongfang Tian.

In addition, the group of Jianghu people are also there, Wan Wanbao, Poison Wanqiang, and Ah Qiang...... Besides, there don't seem to be any big figures. Originally, the head of Wushan, Wuyue, and Lulin all agreed to come, but as soon as they heard the slander against me on the rivers and lakes, they were all "seriously ill"! Although I have the beggar gang leader, the eunuch gang leader, the private gang leader, and the Wudang Shaolin head around me, but you just have a fart for "the court appointed", and people don't recognize it!

But - I don't care about any of that. As long as I go straight to the Yellow Dragon, overturn the grass and trees that secretly support the cults in the rivers and lakes, and wipe out the ten major cults, the rivers and lakes will not have to obediently listen to the words of the imperial court, just like they have been for tens of thousands of years!

At the banquet, people bragged, no problem.
