Facing Lu Zhi's questioning. Ah Niu smiled, "Mr. is too careful, how can there be anything difficult to decide." Ah Niu rarely stays in Luoyang, and rarely has the opportunity to listen to his teachings, which he has always regretted; Besides, Mr. has settled in Fengxiang for so long, working day and night for the exhibition of the territory, how can Ah Niu be at ease? Today's drink with Mr. is to talk to you freely, you don't know a lot of things about Fengxiang, by the way to inform Mr. ”

Lu Zhi smiled, "Although I served as the Taishou of Luoyang, I am only in name, and Chen Shuo, Zhou Tai and others are basically responsible for daily affairs, and I can't work day and night." Anyway, since Ah Niu has this intention, Lu will get drunk with you today! ”

"That's right!"

Ah Niu smiled and poured a hundred flowers of wine for Lu Zhi, and he was very respectful, which showed Lu Zhi's weight in the mind of a city lord. There is no shortage of historical celebrities in Fengxiang City, and many of them shine brighter than Lu Zhi in the history of the Three Kingdoms, but this does not erase Lu Zhi's true ability and status in the slightest. It also can't affect Ah Niu's reliance on Lu Zhi.

To put it simply, if it weren't for Lu Zhiken taking over the post of Luoyang Taishou, Fengxiang's reconstruction plan would never have been so smooth, and the investment of several times the amount of money and manpower might not have reached the current scale. The identity of a famous Confucian at home, a civil and military official, and a former official makes Lu Zhi like a banner with full symbolic significance.

Moreover, Lu Zhi never relied on the old and betrayed the old, he refused the solicitation of many NPC princes, but stayed in Fengxiang City, where the strength was not outstanding (relative to the princes), which shows that Lu Zhi is not a greedy and vain person. In the Battle of Luoyang, Lu Zhi held on to the isolated city, and even agreed to exchange his reputation for valuable time for the defenders when the situation of the defenders was extremely unfavorable.

In Ah Niu's mind, Lu Zhi is like a kind elder, silently waving his residual heat for Feng Xiang to become strong, and personally came forward to say that Chen Shuo was thrown into Feng Xiang's arms, which is an example.

Therefore, Ah Niu's respect for Lu Zhi is by no means fake.

The two raised their glasses and drank them all.

"Sir must already know that in addition to the flying wing battalion led by Zilong, our Fengxiang City has another cavalry unit?"

"Not bad. When Luoyang was facing a siege and was in danger, Zilong told me that as long as I could hold out for three days, I could wait for another cavalry unit to come to help, but I had never seen it. Fengxiang City actually formed two cavalry troops, and with such financial resources, it is worthy of the title of the first city in the world. ”

When the Thunder Cavalry appeared on the battlefield in the Battle of Luoyang, Lu Zhi had already been picked up by Yuan Shu's people in Nanyang, when he was forcibly picked up by Ah Niu and others. Li Jinzheng led his troops to chase and kill the defeated troops of the Montenegrin army, and later returned directly to Liangzhou, but Lu Zhi only knew that there was a cavalry unit in existence, and did not witness it with his own eyes.

When he thought of Zilong, Lu Zhi couldn't help but have a smile of appreciation on his face, and after a moment of conversation, he asked Ah Niu: "How does the general of the other cavalry unit compare with Zilong?" ”

"The martial artist of the Thunder Rider is Li Jin, in terms of combat power, Li Jin and the fifth brother are quite indistinguishable, Zilong is at most on the first line, and the two of them want to distinguish the winner and loser, I'm afraid it can't be done without three or five lilies." Ah Niu thought about it and made such an evaluation.

"Comparable to Zilong?"

Lu Zhi was obviously shocked, what is Zhao Yun's strength, Lu Zhi knows very well, "Zilong is a rare genius", Lu Zhi has always thought that the reason why Feng Xiang can achieve his current achievements is largely due to Ah Niu's several sworn brothers.

Zhou Tai, a king-level military general newly stationed in Luoyang, had surprised Lu Zhi with his strength, he didn't expect that Fengxiang City still hid Li Jin's fierce general! For a moment, Lu Zhi had a little hard time accepting this fact.

"Yes. Li Jin's force ranks second among many generals in Fengxiang, and a figure like Zhou Tai can't last long under Li Jin's whip, hehe. ”

Lu Zhi saw Ah Niu's extremely serious expression, and nodded silently, "Where is that Thunder Cavalry stationed?" When I used to live in Fengxiang City, I didn't seem to have seen that army or that Li Jin. ”

"Yes, this matter involves a big secret of Feng Xiang, we have a special territory in the border area of Jincheng County, Liangzhou, near the Qiang tribe. Thanks to the 'Special Territory Building Blueprints' obtained from the first place in the Yellow Turban Campaign, we now have one city and three towns in our territory in Liangzhou, which can be regarded as beginning to take shape. When Mr. and Wen Ji arrived in Defengxiang City, Li Jin and the others had already gone to Liangzhou, so naturally they had not met. ”

Although it is a core secret, Ah Niu has no intention of continuing to hide these things from Lu Zhi, and whether Lu Zhi is trustworthy is not a question at all. Lu Zhi had long regarded himself as a member of Feng Xiang, and he was qualified to know these secrets.

"The territory of Liangzhou?"

Lu Zhi was shocked again!

Ah Niu smiled and took the empty wine glass in front of Lu Zhi again, while indifferently telling the history of Long Fei City.

The Babao Valley, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, guards the secret passage between the Qiang world and Liangzhou, the big attack of the prison sister Qiang, and the strong friendship with the Qiang people...... Ah Niu told the story, and Lu Zhi listened with fascination.

"Who would have thought that Qingzhou, the first city in the world, would actually have a special territory in Liangzhou, the far west? Such an arrangement is very strategic! The special territory has been stored for so long, and there is no rumor of it, which shows that the secrecy work has been done quite well.

However, Ah Niu must not be careless, the Eight Treasure Valley guards the secret road to Liangzhou for the Qiang people, and the geographical location is very important, and they will not give up lightly. The annihilation of the enemy in a battle with the prison sister Qiang can certainly make the Qiang people jealous, but when they find out the actual situation of the special territory, the next time it will not be so easy to solve. Lu Zhi said with a stern face.

Ah Niu's heart moved and nodded solemnly.

"There is another thing, the newly established Heqi Chamber of Commerce is actually our Fengxiang industry."

Lu Zhi was not too surprised by this, maybe Ah Niu had enough surprises for him today, "Some time ago, I was still wondering why Ah Niu refused to allow many big chambers of commerce that had been inherited for many years to enter Luoyang, and chose a little-known Harmony Chamber of Commerce, which turned out to be like this." After the appearance of the Harmony Merchant, they only set up offices in Luoyang, Qingzhou and Liangzhou, and the goods they sold were mainly rhubarb crossbows, in fact, I should have thought of Fengxiang a long time ago.

Once the Chamber of Commerce gains a firm foothold and continuously obtains huge profits, Fengxiang's rapid take-off is just around the corner! ”

Thinking of this, Lu Zhi, who has been trained in officialdom for many years, has already cultivated the moody and invisible. Rarely, he was a little excited, and at this point, he could be regarded as having a more comprehensive understanding of the true strength of Fengxiang City. I have to admit that Ah Niu's accusations to him were far beyond Lu Zhi's imagination, and he never thought that the strong strength of Fengxiang City would be the result of a large "discount".

Fengxiang City, which has a profound heritage, is far stronger than Lu Zhi imagined!

And Ah Niu's unreserved trust in himself made the wise man feel very relieved, "It seems that my decision to settle in Fengxiang was not wrong." ”

The two raised their glasses again.

Maybe it was because of excitement, maybe the wine was surging, Lu Zhi's face was slightly red, and Ah Niu, who was not drunk in the game, had nothing to do, but his expression at this time was quite hesitant, hesitated, and still asked: "I don't know what Mr. thinks about the bloody case in Beiping that caused a lot of trouble in Youzhou a few days ago." ”

"Ah Niu asked, could it be the bloody case caused by the Beiping Army's accidental killing of Wuhuan merchants?"

"Exactly."

Lu Zhi stood up without saying a word, paced to the window and stood with his hands in his hands, his majestic body was a little lonely, and he sighed, "Bo Qi (Gongsun Zhan) is wrong. Liu Bo'an (Liu Yuzi) in Youzhou to the northern alien policy of Huairou has made good progress in recent years, our Han people and Wuhuan and Xianbei and other foreign races live in harmony, Shangguhu City trade so that everyone can profit from it, the people have enough food and clothing, this is why Youzhou can attract millions of displaced people to settle down. ”

Under these circumstances, Bo Jue figured out Guò's tough tactics against foreigners to establish his prestige in northern Xinjiang, without seeing the shape clearly and without taking into account the wishes of the people of Youzhou, dragging many people who could have lived and worked in peace and contentment into the quagmire of war. It's stupid. At the end of the day, it's his personality that he's too belligerent! ”

Lu Zhi's tone was a little sad and sad, Gongsun Chan and Liu Bei were both his disciples, of course Lu Zhi didn't want to see Gongsun Chan go astray, at least in his opinion, Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu, who had the blood of the Han royal family and were deeply supported by the Han and Hu people in Youzhou, were the expression of the misguided path.

You must know that Lu Zhi had high hopes for Gongsun Zhan, who had outstanding military talents, and now he was disappointed by the actions of Beiping Taishou.

Ah Niu felt Lu Zhi's slightly sad state of mind, and blurted out: "I think Gongsun Zhan may not know what he is doing, but at present, the emperor is being held hostage by Dong Zhuo, and the princes of Shandong are each sharpening their swords, hoping to take this opportunity to make a difference, and even replace the Han family." If Beiping Taishou didn't have such an idea, it would be a little strange.

If Gongsun Zhan wants to embark on the road of hegemony in the world, it is the first step to put Youzhou under his full control, and the reputation of Youzhou Mu Liu Yu among the people is in full swing, he is a capable official, and he is also an excellent politician, but he is not an excellent military strategist, this is the only chance for Beiping Taishou!

Therefore, in Ah Niu's view, Liu Yu used gentle means to outsiders, and Gongsun Chan could only adopt a tough attitude; Liu Yu implemented benevolent governance, and Gongsun Zan implemented the re-canonization in Beiping. Whenever he goes against Liu Yu, the styles of the two are in stark contrast, not necessarily just because he is belligerent, but because the situation requires it and interests dictate! ”

Lu Zhi was shocked!

Lu Zhi had never thought about this aspect before, he really didn't want to believe that the Gongsun Chan he valued was no longer the humble disciple he used to study, and after he was full-fledged, Gongsun Chan already had great ambitions.

But Lu Zhi knew that what Ah Niu said was probably the truth!

"According to Ah Niu, the Beiping Army's detention of the goods of the Wuhuan merchants may be just an excuse for Gongsun Zhan?"

Ah Niu nodded, "I'm afraid yes, the Beiping soldiers who executed the order may really think that those Wuhuan merchants are dressed as robbers, but Gongsun Chan may not know the truth." If not, why did Gongsun Chan refuse to apologize when Liu Yu later confirmed that those Wuhuan people were indeed merchants who went to Shanggu, and even refused to return the goods detained by the Wuhuan people? ”

Lu Zhi's face changed again, as if he didn't want to believe this fact, and said: "But in this way, his situation will become very embarrassing, and the people's evaluation of him will inevitably be lower, and the aliens are inseparable from him, why should he do this?" ”

"It's simple.

First. Hit Liu Yu. Youzhou Mu Liu Yu's mediation failed to achieve results, and his prestige and reputation were bound to be damaged, at least people will realize that in Youzhou, Liu Yu's words may not be effective, at least there is a Gongsun Zan who does not give him face.

Second, we should seize the opportunity to expand the armed forces and strengthen our strength. Gongsun Zhan's military vision is indeed unique, before making this decision, he has already considered carefully, most of the nomads are good at sports warfare, even if the Beiping army can't bargain in the field, as long as the city is defended, the Wuhuan people can't pose a substantial threat to the Beiping army.

Ah Niu heard that after Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's rebellion was pacified, Liu Yu had strict restrictions on the military strength of the various departments in Youzhou, and no one was allowed to take a step beyond Lei Chi, and Gongsun Zhan's establishment was only more than 10,000 people, and it was obviously not enough to fight for hegemony with this point of troops, even if it was recruited privately, the Youzhou government would not recognize its legitimacy, and it was even more delusional to supply the corresponding grain, grass and ordnance! The attack on Beiping by foreigners gave Gongsun Chan a good excuse to expand his armaments, and perhaps this was his main purpose.

Third, raise your momentum. Although Gongsun Zhan's hard-line attitude has made many peace-loving Han people resentful, there will be radical nationalists everywhere, especially in places like Youzhou, where foreign people from the north have plundered our Han people from time to time, and there are not a few people who have blood feuds with foreign people. Gongsun Zhan's actions just catered to the wishes of those people! ”

After finishing speaking, seeing that Lu Zhi was silent, a certain city lord couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, after all, Gongsun Chan was Lu Zhi's proud disciple, and it seemed very impolite to say bad things about others in person, "Ah Niu just said what he thought in his heart, this random analysis is difficult to get into the hall of elegance, Gongsun Taishou may not be such a person, and I hope that Mr. Don't blame Ah Niu for being frivolous." ”

Lu Zhi looked at a certain city lord a few times, as if he had never known Ah Niu, and said with a wry smile, "I underestimated Ah Niu, although I have always known that Ah Niu is extraordinary, I still didn't expect you to have such insight." Only at this point can I say with certainty that Fengxiang's success is by no means fortunate! ”

Ah Niu's old face flushed, this opinion was actually not his own credit, Pang Tong's contribution was indispensable, but after a fierce ideological struggle, a certain city lord still swallowed this honor very calmly, "Well, anyway, Mr. Lu doesn't know how bullish Pang Tong is in history, don't give him more stimulation today, I'll reluctantly ...... it"

After learning Lu Zhi's thoughts on the situation in Youzhou, Ah Niu's heart was relieved, and today he came to Lu Zhi for a private drink, in addition to contacting feelings and telling secrets, there is also one of the most important purposes: once he receives the invitation of Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, Feng Xiang will send elite soldiers to enter Youzhou, and wave his army to fight with Youzhou's male Gongsun Zhan, before that, Ah Niu must first make a secret with Lu Zhi, even if he can't get his support, he must be understood.

After all, the opponent that Fengxiang City was about to face was Lu Zhi's disciple!

You must know that although Lu Zhi settled in Fengxiang and has been doing his best for the exhibition of Fengxiang City, he has never officially appeared. If the handling of this matter is a little careless, it is easy to make Lu Zhi feel disgusted, and the strict zhòng person may lead him to leave Fengxiang, if he really goes to that point, it will be an irreparable heavy loss.

Ah Niu couldn't ignore Lu Zhi's attitude towards this matter, and it was obviously inappropriate to hide it from the world and wait for the raw rice to be cooked and then sue Lu Zhi.

If it weren't for this, before a certain city lord came to Luoyang this time, he would not hide in the city lord's mansion with Pang Tong, racking his brains to think badly about Gongsun Zhan, and portraying Gongsun Chan as a big villain who is "selfish, disregarding the national righteousness, disregarding the life and death of the people, and having a heart of disobedience to the Han Dynasty", then Feng Xiang's move of "doing the right thing for heaven" seems to be easier for Lu Zhi to accept.

After all the foreshadowing, Ah Niu began to go straight to the point.

"Sir, maybe in the near future, a unit of our Fengxiang will go to Youzhou."

Lu Zhihu turned around and said in a loud voice: "Are you going to intervene in the conflict between the Wuhuan people and Gongsun Zhan?" ”

Ah Niu nodded.

"If I'm not mistaken, the enemy that our troops in Fengxiang City have to face is the Beiping Army?"

"Yes. Sir should know that Fengxiang has a long-term trade relationship with the Talan tribe of the Wuhuan tribe, and we bought high-grade war horses from the Talan tribe and resold them to the Mi clan of the East China Sea for huge profits; They got a large amount of urgently needed food, weapons and other materials from Fengxiang, everyone took what they needed, this trade cooperation is very important to Fengxiang, Ah Niu believes that there is no room for loss.

In addition, there were some other reasons that forced Feng Xiang to send troops to Youzhou. In fact, I am not sure at all whether Feng Xiangjun can bargain with the Beiping Army, and if there is any other choice, I will never let Feng Xiangnan touch that hard nail. ”

Ah Niu shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly, and did not shy away from telling Lu Zhi about the cause and effect of the matter one by one, although he was quite helpless, but Ah Niu's words and deeds all showed that Feng Xiang had to fight!

After listening to a certain city lord's statement, Lu Zhi lowered his head and was silent, which made the atmosphere in the room even more depressing. After a while, Lu Zhi raised his head and asked lightly, "Ah Niu has made up his mind?" ”

"Hmm."

"The reason why you want to send troops to Youzhou is just because of Feng Xiang's close connection with the Wuhuan Taran tribe?" Lu Zhi's voice gradually became stern.

Ah Niu looked at Lu Zhi's question, and his eyes did not give an inch, "Ah Niu really wanted to say to Mr. : The reason why I decided to send troops to Youzhou is because I don't want to see Gongsun Zan continue to act perversely in Youzhou, provoking the contradictions between the Han people and the northern ethnic minorities to intensify, so as to realize his wolf ambition of winning the world based in Youzhou, so Feng Xiang had to stand up and set things right, and return a stable Youzhou to the people of northern Xinjiang."

Such a reason is admittedly beautiful, but Ah Niu does not want to deceive himself, let alone say these empty words in front of his husband. As the lord of Fengxiang, Ah Niu has to consider the interests of Fengxiang people, and I have the responsibility and obligation to let those villagers who love Fengxiang live a better life! ”

"Knowing the relationship between Gongsun Chan and me, does Ah Niu still want to send troops?"

"I think that even if it is difficult to accept it for a while, Mr. will be able to understand Ah Niu's distress in the future!" A certain city lord said with great sincerity.

The chill on Lu Zhi's face suddenly melted like an iceberg, and he laughed, "Okay! Ah Niu is indeed not a pretentious person, if you really used such a reason to prevaricate just now, it will only disappoint Lu. Ah Niu did not compromise because of Lu's feelings in the situation just now, which shows that Ah Niu is determined and assertive.

Even if Ah Niu's original intention of sending troops is just for the future of Fengxiang City, he can still give him a head start, if Fengxiang Army's battle can make him wake up and stop the useless struggle, it is also the blessing of Youzhou and the blessing of the Han Dynasty!

The decision to send troops to Youzhou is no longer changeable, prepare for war, my disciple is not so easy to deal with. If he asks about this matter in the future, Ah Niu needs to know that I have been busy with the reconstruction of Luoyang, and I don't know anything about Fengxiang City's dispatch of troops to Youzhou beforehand, so don't forget this. After all, he used to be one of my most valued disciples, and just half a month ago, he sent an envoy from Beiping to invite me to Beiping for a reunion. ”

Ah Niu secretly rejoiced, "Fortunately, I listened to Pang Tong's words and didn't use these high-sounding reasons to play treasure." "Lu Zhi has been mixed in officialdom for most of his life, and he is pretentious in front of him, which is purely lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot.

A certain city lord solemnly saluted: "Thank you Mr. for your understanding, Ah Niu will go all out!" ”

Lu Zhi smiled and said, "Isn't this exactly what Ah Niu wants to hear when he asks me for a drink today?" ”

After getting Lu Zhi's understanding, Ah Niu had no scruples about sending troops to Youzhou, Ah Niu did not try to ask Lu Zhi about the characteristics of Gongsun Zhan's use of troops, such a reluctant invitation was really unspeakable in front of Lu Zhi.

The third brother Liu Xing also knew the result of the trip to Xianshan, and Liu Xing, who had always been brainy, was very open to the fact that there was only one copy of the elixir in Xianshan, "Before the fourth brother and the eldest brother came out, I was prepared for the worst plan to return empty-handed after nothing, and it was great to be able to get one!" In fact, my second brother and I have discussed it a long time ago, if you really want to get the elixir of the fairy mountain, what you want is to complete the eldest brother, and the earth wandering immortal is the legendary storage zài! ”

Before coming to Fengxiang, Wang Yue, Li Qi and Liu Xing traveled the rivers and lakes together, a typical friend of life and death, this sincere affection is not something that a fairy mountain elixir can disintegrate!

Early the next morning, Ah Niu rode on Dahei and left Luoyang and went straight to Liangzhou.

When Da Hei landed in the Eight Treasure Valley, the villagers of the special territory and the three surrounding subsidiary territories were all overjoyed. Knowing that the city lord had suddenly visited, Chen Gong was also very happy, and hurriedly rushed from Longfei City to the valley, and collided with a certain city lord at the city gate.

"Lord!"

Chen Gong was about to give a salute, but he was already grabbed by Ah Niu, and a hearty laugh sounded in his ears, "Don't be polite on the public platform, take me to patrol the Liangzhou territory first, and let's talk while watching." ”

Chen Gong smiled and no longer insisted, "Okay! ”

The placement style of all kinds of buildings in Longfei City is very different from that of the main city of Qingzhou, and there is very little pursuit of beauty, and many of the details of the buildings reflect a purpose: easy to defend!

Under such a principle, the distribution of the urban area of Longfei City seems to be a little deformed, and the vast majority of the territory of Longfei City is at the mouth of Babao Valley, but in order to facilitate defense, after successive upgrades, Chen Palace will consciously extend the new urban area to the depth of Babao Valley, and the city lord's mansion is built in the middle of Babao Valley. In this way, even if Long Fei encounters a strong enemy and is attacked into the city from outside the valley by a powerful enemy and destroys the city lord's office, he will not be able to destroy Long Fei immediately.

If any of the City Lord's Mansion and City Lord's Office are deposited, the territory will not be destroyed!

After more than half a year of construction, the Babao Valley Fortress renovation plan has achieved initial results, and the tail and two ends of the Babao Valley have been built first, and they have taken shape so far.

On the ground, there is only one side of Longfei City that needs to be defended, and a dense arrow tower has been built in the only city wall, and the space close to the inner side of the city wall is completely occupied by the arrow tower and the stone staircase to climb the city; In mid-air, the plank road system divided into three layers stands in the air, compared with the simple plank road that was rushed before the prison sister Qiang invaded, the plank road is now more practical, and there is a female wall to provide protection for the crossbowmen on the plank road. The three-story plank road and the arrow tower on the ground constitute an all-round defense system.

This defense system has terrifying lethality!

Ah Niu even thinks that even if someone wants to make a little benefit in Longfei City, they can only return in vain in the face of the impregnable defensive force. Unless the enemy is all armed from top to bottom with canned scalps, there is no need to think about capturing Long Fei at all.

At the other end of the Eight Treasure Valley, at the exit of the secret passage, the same security is heavily guarded, and the same fortifications are lined up. Now outside the secret passage are the Qiang people, friends of Fengxiang City, and trading partners of the Harmony Chamber of Commerce, under normal circumstances, Fengxiang does not need to worry about the Qiang people sneaking over from the secret passage and making a surprise attack on the defenders of Longfei City, but Chen Gong, who has always been strict in his style, has never relaxed his vigilance.

There are not many troops in Liangzhou, and the defenders outside the secret passage at the bottom of the valley have never been less than five hundred people, and they have reached the base camp of the dead first, not far from here!

Ah Niu is very satisfied with the defense system of Babao Valley, and attacking this kind of fortress head-on can only mean that the opponent's commander has been caught in the head by the door, or accidentally ravaged by the donkey's hooves, more than once!

"It's only been more than two months, and the defense system of the special territory has been so sophisticated, and the public platform has made great contributions. I am a little puzzled that our territory in Liangzhou is almost impregnable, why does the public station think that it is inappropriate to transfer the first dead soldier away? This question, since communicating with the five rats in Jincheng a few days ago, has been in Ah Niu's heart.

Chen Gong smiled bitterly: "Lord, this is not what it used to be, the times are changing!" ”

In the stunned expression of a certain city lord, Chen Gong told the new shape faced by the special territory of Liangzhou in detail, and in the process of listening, Ah Niu's brows became tighter and tighter, and his expression was stern.

The changes in the current situation in Liangzhou are out of Ah Niu's imagination!

Han Sui and Ma Teng seized one side in Liangzhou and did not obey Dong Zhuo's orders, and Ma Teng, one of the two major warlords, also directly participated in Cao Cao's campaign against Dong Zhuo and became one of the princes of the Eighteen Towns. It was with this opportunity that Ma Teng changed from "the rebels who rebelled with the Qiang people in the past" to "a member of the princes of the Han Dynasty", and his identity has been bleached since then.

Ma Teng's actions naturally aroused Dong Zhuo's strong dissatisfaction, Dong Zhuo did not dare to march to the princes of Shandong lightly, but he was unwilling to swallow the bitter fruit of "losing Luoyang and moving the capital to Chang'an" lightly, and always hoped to find someone to vent his nameless anger.

Sending troops to Shandong may lead the divided princes to unite again, but sending troops from Sili and Yongzhou to Liangzhou to exterminate Ma Teng is something that Dong Zhuo can do lightly, which is his back garden.

The battle against Dong Zhuo has been over for so long, Ma Teng has been alive and well, not because Dong Zhuo is very generous, but because Ma Teng and Han Suiyi have joined Jin Lan to advance and retreat together, so that Dong Zhuo can throw himself into a trap, and he doesn't want to tear his face with Han Sui and recruit one more strong enemy for himself.

Dong Zhuo's strength, it is not difficult to defeat Ma Teng, but if you want to defeat the Han and Ma coalition forces, you can no longer have an overwhelming advantage, once the war is dragged into a stalemate, the Kwantung princes are waiting for the opportunity to work together to go west, Dong Zhuo is worried that he will not be able to eat and walk around!

Dong Zhuo's most trusted adviser and son-in-law, Li Ru, believes that Ma Teng and Han Sui, who have the friendship of Jinlan, were the only one who responded to the call to raise the banner of rebellion in the battle of the Kwantung princes to attack Dong Zhuo, which may be the result of the discussion between the two. If the alliance of princes succeeds in killing Dong Zhuo, Ma Teng will speak for Han Sui in front of everyone; Even if the crusade against Dong Zhuo fails, Han Sui, who remains neutral, can become a buffer between the two when Dong Zhuo asks Ma Teng to settle accounts.

During the Three Kingdoms period, there were many such examples, the most famous was the Zhuge brothers, the three brothers served in the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, no matter which country unified China, the prosperity of the Zhuge clan was guaranteed; No matter which of the three brothers misses and is captured by the other party, there are brothers who want to save it, and the hope of survival is greatly increased!

This is the embodiment of the concept of "don't put all your eggs in one basket".

Dong Zhuo has not officially used troops against Ma Teng, but all signs show that the Eastern Han Dynasty Taifu did not give up the idea of revenge, and Ma Teng and Han Sui knew that the war of arming had never stopped. No one knows when Liangzhou will be shrouded in beacon smoke, maybe tomorrow.

Due to the tension of the form, Han Sui and Ma Teng desperately raised military supplies to enhance their strength in order to protect themselves, and many lord players in Liangzhou in their sphere of influence became the natural targets of exploitation. After a long period of deliberation, three days ago, Han Sui and Ma Teng issued an order together, and the lords were required to hand over varying amounts of money and grain according to the size of their territory.

Such a request immediately caused an uproar in the game!

To be sure, Han Sui and Ma Teng didn't ask for much money and food from the lord players, at least far from what the lords could afford, but they set a precedent: in addition to normal taxes, NPC princes collected supplies from lord players in their sphere of influence for the first time.

This is clearly slaughtering the player as a fat sheep, which is tolerable or unbearable!

If there is oppression, there will be resistance, not to mention that most players think that the NPC princes in the game are just supporting roles sent by the system to play with everyone, and the players are the masters of the game, how can there be a reason for the protagonist to be exploited by the supporting characters?

Although the first request is not too excessive, who can guarantee that there will not be similar things in the future? The princes who eat the marrow and know the taste, it is inevitable that they will be insatiable and ask for it again and again. The lord players outside of Liangzhou also expressed strong dissatisfaction with this, as well as solidarity with the lord of Liangzhou, it is the lord of Liangzhou who is being exploited today, who will be the turn tomorrow?

This is a very bad precedent, and if it is not nipped in the bud, it is likely that the princes everywhere will follow suit, and the interests of all lord players will be harmed. Unless...... can put those hatefulness with Huang Shiren's npnetbsp; Almost all the lord players in the country, as well as the vassal forces, are closely watching the situation exhibition.

The enraged lords of Liangzhou began a vigorous liberation movement of "resistance to tyranny" and "resistance to exploitation", refusing to deliver additional money and food.

Such a reaction was expected by Han Sui and Ma Teng, and many troops that had been prepared for a long time began a big competition to kill "chickens". Just yesterday, seven town-level and two city-level territories were breached, and after the princes' troops plundered the population and resources in the territory, they brazenly destroyed the territory, and nine territories were removed from Shenzhou!

- To explain that the two city-level territories that were removed were both personally attacked by Ma Teng's fierce general Pang De.

After being suppressed by the princes with thunderous means of rebellion, the protests of the Liangzhou lord players were much less loud than before, being exploited was painful, but being destroyed was obviously more painful. In fact, many lords in the game who are mediocre or started late have long been vassals of some powerful player forces, and for them, it is better to be affected by npnetbsp than to be exploited by players; It's not surprising that no player is willing to be eaten by their own "kind", just like the same death downgrade, most of them will be very angry after being attacked and killed by other players, but after being killed by the system monster, they may only feel bad luck (except for the public enemy like Yan Yan).

In just two days, the original agreement of the lord players to "never pay extra money and food" was declared a failure, and someone made a bad start, and under strong external pressure, many followed.

Long Feicheng, located on the border of Liangzhou, is located in Han Sui's sphere of influence, so Long Feicheng was also affected without any suspense, and received a "reminder notice", Chen Gongtong guò Jincheng Five Rats, and Huo informed Ah Niu of this situation.

According to Fengxiang City's practice of never bowing to the outside world, Ah Niu didn't plan to pay this batch of money and grain, if Qingzhou Assassin Shi Zang Hong now forcibly levied money and grain from the lord of Qingzhou, a certain city lord didn't bother to take care of it at all, and directly blasted out the matter. But considering the particularity of Long Fei, Ah Niu, who didn't want to make extraneous branches, still smiled bitterly and told Chen Gong, "It's not easy for them to reward others with a mouthful of food."

Ah Niu already knew about this situation in advance, but there was a new situation that he didn't know.

"Lord, yesterday when Han Sui's people asked for money and food outside Longfei City, it happened that Li Jin returned from the Xiongnu steppe with a thunderbolt and entered the city under the nose of Han Suijun. I am always a little relieved about this, more than 800 horsemen, all high-grade Xiqiang war horses, the leading military general of Han Suijun looked straight at that time, in case they ...... in the future"

Chen Gong's voice became smaller and quieter, and no one could have predicted in advance that the Thunder Cavalry led by Li Jin would return at that time, but Chen Gong thought that "if I had been more cautious and sent people to guard outside in advance, maybe that scene would not have happened", Chen Gong has always blamed himself for this.

A certain city lord's face sank, "Gongtai is worried that Han Sui will open his mouth in the future?" ”

"Possibly. Please also ask the Lord to show me how to deal with such a situation.

I'm not worried about whether they can attack Longfei City, the defense capability of Babao Valley is not something that ordinary people can shake, but we still have three subordinate territories outside the valley, and we have gathered a large number of craftsmen, once something happens, the production capacity of our Liangzhou territory will be greatly affected!

What's more, once things get bigger, it will be difficult for Long Fei's secret to continue to preserve. ”

This is the biggest problem of Chen Gong these days, and it is precisely because of this that he hopes to let the first deceased continue to stay in Liangzhou. In the defense system of the Eight Treasure Valley Fortress, the design of the three-story plank road is tailor-made for crossbowmen!

Ah Niu suddenly felt that his head was as big as a fight!
