Chapter 1257: The Four Kings Stand Up

The return of the LĂź Bu Expeditionary Force also announced that the armed forces of Hengwu Kingdom had returned to their peak level, which made Sun Cao Liu and others nervous, worried that Shang Ji would take advantage of the situation to launch a unified war.

However, to their relief, the Shang Ji did not seem to have this intention, and still slowly strengthened their rule over the North, the Western Regions, the Wa Kingdom and other regions.

In the following year, the Shang army suddenly entered a period of silence.

There were no large-scale troop movements, and there were no major wars, and it was unbelievable for a while.

However, the three families of Sun Cao and Liu in the south made great moves and attracted enough attention.

First of all, the Cao Liu coalition army finally succeeded in taking the whole territory of the body poison through a bloody battle. Ashoka, the legendary emperor of the body poison area, was also the only SS-level general in the body poison area was killed by Guan Yu, the Peacock Empire collapsed, and Cao Liu and the others divided the huge body poison area, and the soldiers pointed directly at the countries of Central Asia.

Compared with Cao and Liu, Sun Ce's side did not show weakness. It not only mastered the entire territory of the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia, but also extended its tentacles to Australia and gained a firm foothold in Western Australia.

If calculated purely from the area of the domain, the area controlled by Sun Cao and Liu is not much less than that of Shangji, and at this time, Huaxia District has become a super giant, and all the national districts adjacent to Huaxia District have been annexed, and none of them have been spared.

And as the sphere of influence of Sun Cao and Liu became larger and larger, the ambitions of the three began to swell.

First of all, Cao Cao, under the control of Cao Cao, Liu Cong, the son of Liu Biao, the Mu of Jingzhou, asked the imperial court to canonize Cao Cao as the King of Wei in the name of Cao Cao's great contribution to the country.

This news was written by Liu Biao to Liu Biao, who was still in Chang'an, through public channels, and as soon as the chapter came out, it immediately stirred up a thousand waves.

Of course, Liu Wei did not dare to make decisions on his own, and immediately solicited (requested) the opinions of Shang Ji.

At the same time, Cao Cao also began to build momentum in Jingzhou, and people from all walks of life emerged in an endless stream, and there was a great posture of rebellion if Cao Cao was not crowned king, and celebrities from all over the country also spoke out in support of Cao Cao.

In addition, Liu Bei and Sun Ce also spoke out publicly, supporting Liu Cong's invitation and supporting Cao Cao as king.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is what the three of them have discussed, and now it's just singing a double reed.

Shang Ji was also a little hesitant about Cao Cao's request to be crowned king, but finally discussed it with his ministers and decided to allow it.

Now the situation is already obvious, even if Shang Ji refuses, Cao Cao can still claim the throne in a way that the public will belong, but in this way, Liu Wei's already small role will be completely cleared.

Now canonized Cao Cao as king in the name of Liu Wei, no matter what the facts are, but theoretically he is still a subordinate of the Han court, and Shang Ji can still get a little cheap in the general righteousness, although this effect is getting more and more chicken, but it is better than nothing!

In the end, with the acquiescence of Shang Ji, Liu Wei passed Liu Cong's request and canonized Cao Cao as the king of Wei, and the second king of Huaxia District was newly baked.

As Shang Ji expected, in the second month of Cao Cao's crowning of the king, Liu Zhang, the son of the former Yizhou Mu, and the former Jiaozhou Mushi Xie respectively asked the imperial court to canonize Liu Bei and Sun Ce as kings in the same name.

This time, Shang Ji didn't hesitate and passed directly. make

Sun Ce was named King of Wu, and Liu Bei was named King of Shu.

Liu Bei wants the name of the King of Han, but now Liu Wei is still nominally the co-owner of the world, don't you want a King of Han to make it clear that you want to rebel? Therefore, according to Liu Bian's canonization will, Liu Bei could only choose between the king of Hanzhong and the king of Shu.

The King of Hanzhong is obviously one level lower than the King of Shu, the King of Wu, the King of Wei and the like, Liu Bei naturally will not choose, so he can only pinch his nose and recognize the name of the King of Shu who made him quite unhappy.

So far, King Wu built the capital of Jianye, King Shu built the capital of Chengdu, King Wei built the capital of Xiangyang, King Hengwu built the capital of Xindu (the capital in the planning, called the new capital, is still under construction), the world is divided into four, and the pattern of the four kings is formed.

However, what is more embarrassing is that Shang Ji, the king of Hengwu, is obviously stronger than the other three kings, which can be reflected in both the quality of the army and the quality of the generals, and the other three also know it.

Therefore, the three kings of Wei, Shu and Wu are ready to run away at any time, and once the momentum is not right, the three of them will retreat to Australia, poison the local area, and go overseas to be a free man.

For this reason, these three kings are not less prepared. Among them, the most prominent is Sun Ce, in the past few years, Sun Ce has smashed most of the looted money on the sailors, and built a large number of shipyards in the Philippines, Malaysia, Jianye and other places.

Because of the massive investment of funds and resources, the development of the Wu State Naval Division was very rapid, but in just two or three years, it already had the strength of the Shang Ji Army Naval Division and the Wave Evil Alliance Naval Division before the decisive battle.

On the contrary, in the past two years, the Shang Ji Army Navy Division has not made any moves, and some of them have disappeared, so that many people in the outside world think that the strength of the Wu State Navy Division has surpassed that of Hengwu State.

However, Shang Ji laughed at this rumor and didn't care at all.

Although the main energy of Hengwu Kingdom in recent years has been focused on the construction of the new capital on the surface, the development of the military has not fallen behind at all, and the water division has been the focus of the Shang Ji, and the development speed has even surpassed the construction of the combat legion.

Of course, these are not clear to the outside world, even the three kings of Wei, Shu and Wu. The difficulty of keeping the water division secret is much simpler than that of the combat legion, and the spies of the Wu State have died wave after wave, and they have now figured out what the strength of the Hengwu State Navy Division is.

After three years of construction, under the premise of investing a large amount of manpower and material resources, the long-awaited new capital of Hengwu finally completed the first phase of the construction task, and the main project of the inner city was completed!

In other words, Shang Ji is finally moving!

After repeated calculations by Huangyang Zhenren, the auspicious day of the zodiac was finally finalized, and Hengwu held a grand ceremony to move the capital.

Needless to say, the ceremony process focused on majesty and grandeur, and the whole process of moving the capital lasted for a month, and the Shang family finally moved into the newly built palace.

After Shang Ji entered the palace, the sky will be auspicious, the purple air is full of sky, the palace is surrounded by golden lotus, there is a hidden sound of dragons and phoenixes and chirping, the fragrance lingers in the whole city, the beasts and birds are endless, and all kinds of visions do not disperse for a long time, and it lasts for half a month!

During this period, breakthroughs and epiphanyes came and went. There are as many as eight life professionals who have broken through to the god-level realm alone, and the number of generals who have broken through from super-first-class to human-level during the anomaly period has exceeded a thousand!

As soon as the vision came out, the whole world was shocked, and Sun Cao and Liu felt that their necks were cold.

In fact, because Shang Ji had not set the capital for a long time, the Hengwu State was just established in the official definition, which was later than the establishment of the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu.

At the time of the Three Kingdoms, although there were also auspicious visions, they were far inferior to Hengwu in terms of scale and strength, and the vision of the founding of the country was directly related to the fortunes of the country.
