Seeing the comer, Cai Hui hurriedly greeted him, took the boy's place, and supported the young man with gray temples. His voice trembled slightly, and he asked:

"National teacher, our Lan country, is it really saved? Don't you want to deceive the widow? ”

The national teacher is also very excited, he will calculate the future of the Lan Kingdom once a day at the meridian time, even in recent years, the hexagram shows that it will always be a 'death' word, and it has never stopped.

He doesn't believe that there is a certain death in this world, even if he is ambushed from all sides, there is still a glimmer of life. It's a pity that the hexagrams in the past few years have hit him a little badly - because of his eyes, there is no life at all.

Until today, he routinely performed a hexagram, but found that a small hope appeared in the situation that was supposed to die. Although in the vast darkness, that little hope is extremely small, it is also set off very dazzling!

"Poor Dao naturally doesn't dare to deceive the king! Speaking of which, Poor Dao also thought that he was dazzled today, so he deliberately made another hexagram, and he was indeed still alive! King, my Lan Kingdom, the sky is immortal! ”

The national teacher's name is Zhang Yidao, and he was born in the top Taoist cultivation sect - One Qi Dao Sect! Although Zhang Yidao is still a young man, he is already an out-and-out 500-year-old lifespan! Naturally, he is also a strong man in the Tuojiang Realm! And it is a very small number of Tuojiang in the camp of the Lan Kingdom!

"Good! All right! Heaven will not die, my Lan country! Heaven will not die, my Lan country! Did the national teacher ever see where this glimmer of hope came from? ”

Cai Hui's whole person was a little crazy, grabbing Zhang Yidao's arms with both hands, and exerting so much force that his muscles burst out. As the king of Lan and the prince of Cai State, he shouldn't have lost his temper like this, but even if a person who talks about etiquette no matter how much he talks about etiquette, after experiencing Cai Hui, I'm afraid his performance is not as good as him.

He used to be the most inconspicuous of the many princes of Cai State, and inheriting the unification of Cai State, unless all the princes and princes die, it will definitely not be his turn. Who would have thought that this premise was actually realized, or rather, half realized.

One day, the state of Cai fell, and most of the princes died under the iron hoof, only Cai Hui and the two princes who were hiding relatively hidden, escaped, but in the subsequent rush to escape, the other two also died.

Cai Guo died, and the princes and grandsons were almost dead. As for those princes, during the period when Cai was defeated, most of them stuck to their own territories, and even more, they also funded the three kingdoms of Chang, Kun, and Rui at that time.

Later, Rui Guo was destroyed because he accidentally killed the disciples of the Qi Source Taoist Temple, so that Cai Hui, who had already been supported by some people with lofty ideals, found an opportunity to establish the Lan Kingdom!

In the time when Kun Guo and Chang Guo did not react, Cai Hui immediately included all the cities of Rui Kingdom into his sphere of influence! At that moment, he was full of ambition and ambition, vowing to unify the Three Kingdoms and regain the unification of Cai!

It's a pity that this ambitious prince, or King Lan, was still severely beaten by the society. As soon as he arrived at the Kingdom of Switzerland, Cai Hui thought that his relationship with the other two countries had become a three-legged stand.

But in fact, when the Qiyuan Daoist Temple took revenge, except for the people in Rui who left their lives, all the others, whether they were ministers, military attachés or soldiers, turned into ashes. It can be said that what Cai Hui got was just an empty shell.

After realizing this, Cai Hui began to frantically select talented people in the private sector, and at the same time, he also began to recruit soldiers on a large scale, intending to quickly fill the framework. But Chang and Kun were not given for nothing. They didn't react when the Rui Kingdom was destroyed, but when Cai Hui entered the Rui Kingdom, they were already sober.

Taking advantage of Cai Hui's fledgling, they began to take the opportunity to seize the land left by the previous Rui Kingdom. If it weren't for Cai Hui holding high the banner of recovering Da Cai, he quickly gathered a group of civil masters and forces to form a relatively simple corps to resist.

This newly established Lan State is afraid that it has been swallowed up by the other two countries.

But even so, the land of the Lan Kingdom has shrunk a lot. The territory of the original fifteen states has been directly reduced to seven states. It can be described as a great loss of vitality.

In the years that followed, Lan Guo almost kept suffering defeats! In this process, there are still many former hermits and good hands who come to take refuge in the Lan Kingdom, but those who feel that they can't see hope go more.

If it weren't for the appearance of the national teacher Zhang Yidao and the great general Hou Shi, Lan Guo would not be able to hold on to the present. The national teacher Zhang Yidao was born in a top Taoist sect, proficient in divination and fortune-telling, and he is also a good hand at marching and arranging.

In addition, he is also a great monk of the Tuojiang Realm, when he chose to join the Lan Kingdom, it can be said that he stabilized half of the country with his own strength!

Later, in several battles against the pressure of the Kun and Chang armies, they were repelled by various tricks. In those few battles, the strength of the enemy army was not less than 500,000 at each time, but what about Lan Guo? There are only 200,000 soldiers and horses, and most of them are stragglers.

Kun and Chang, who originally looked down on Lan State, seemed to be annoyed and angry after several defeats, and when they raised troops to suppress the border again, the combined strength of the two sides reached two million.

These are just ordinary soldiers, among whom there are countless martial cultivators involved, and the total number of people is not too much to say that three million.

In such a situation, Zhang Yidao, who is known for his strange ways, can only look at the sky helplessly, shouting that the sky will die for me. Kelan is a very magical country, just like the son of luck, when everyone is at a loss in the face of such a situation, sitting on the ground and waiting for death, a person named Hou Shi appeared.

This person was mixed in the army of the Lan State before, brave and good at fighting, and after only one year of joining the Lan State, he had already mixed into the position of the commander of the thousand! As for heels, this person claimed to be a disciple of a deceased general of Cai Guo in the past, and he had learned a lot.

Cai Hui and Zhang Yidao felt that Hou Shi was a little weird! You must know that this person is a martial artist in the realm of a great grandmaster! This kind of cultivation does not need to start from the grassroots level at all, and if you learn from Zhang Yidao and take refuge directly, you can be in a high position!

But on the contrary, Hou Shi started from a nobody and climbed to the commander of a thousand soldiers. According to his own words, if he wasn't facing such a dead end and no one was right at the moment, then he would definitely continue to take the military merit route and slowly climb to the position of a general! Unfortunately, time is running out.

Hou Shi's study of the art of war is indeed very deep, in the face of this invincible battle, all kinds of art of war emerge in endlessly, the rabble of the Lan country, but it is the feeling of being used out of the beginning of the royal road, several times with the weak to defeat the strong, pay a very small price, annihilate the enemy tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people!

This is only in terms of numbers, in terms of high-level combat effectiveness, Hou Shi relied on his extremely strong combat power to kill one Grand Master of Kun Guo Cai Guo and dozens of Grandmasters in the melee, although he was seriously injured, he killed the enemy with fear.

In the year-long war, nearly three million people of the Changkun coalition army were annihilated by the Lan State at the cost of 150,000 lives and the loss of a state! The loss of high-level combat power is almost a third.

That's not how the battle was fought! What a loss! This is a blood loss!

The Changkun coalition army was scared, really scared. Although there were less than 50,000 regular troops left in the Lan Kingdom, as well as the newly added 100,000 reserves, they were like ants in front of their million-strong army, but they really didn't dare to fight.

The benefits are not proportional to the pay! Unless they can directly destroy the entire Lan Kingdom and swallow all the territory, otherwise, if they continue to fight, they can only lose! Can they take the land of Lan?

I don't know. The commander-in-chief of the coalition forces really didn't know.

If Zhang Yidao is a master of trickery, he uses Taoism to establish countless endless logistics for the Lan Kingdom. Then when Hou Shi is in front of the coalition army, it is a towering mountain standing in front of the coalition army - hard welding, but it can't be done! You can't play the art of war!

Hou Shi is such a person, but it is like a mountain with no eye on the top, and the oppression, suffocation and despair really make the coalition forces feel a sense of powerlessness that they cannot overcome.

Whether it is in the coalition army or in the army of Lan State, Hou Shi relied on his own ability to win the title of 'God of War'!

After that battle, the coalition forces retreated. The domestic crusade against them reached its peak, but the allied generals could not refute it. Nearly three million to two hundred thousand, and in the end only half of them were left, not incompetence!

On the side of the Lan Kingdom, the morale of the country is also great after this war! Attract more people with lofty ideals to run. At this time, Hou Shi's ability to train soldiers has been reflected again, he is like a real military god, but he understands everything related to military affairs!

Looking at it this way, it seems that Lan suddenly really has the capital to compete with the other two countries. The situation has reached a three-legged momentum! But unfortunately, this is just an illusion of the people of Lan who have not won for a long time.

The gap between Lan and the other two countries is still huge, you must know that when Kun and Chang split Cai, they were wrapped in a lot of financial, material and human resources. This is the gap in the background!

Even if the Lan Kingdom wins a big victory now, it is completely impossible for them to counterattack the two countries! At this time, another ill of the Lan State in addition to the weak army and few people appeared, there was no money!

Since its establishment, the Lan Kingdom has been fighting! Relying on the remaining laws of Cai Guo and the remaining funds of Rui Guo before, it is okay to support all this. But after a few years of fighting, they have always been rebelling, rebelling, resisting!

There is no opportunity to go out and plunder resources, which leads to the lack of military spending. Even many ministers of the Lan Kingdom have not issued a fortune for a long time. Such ills were well disguised before.

At the moment of the great enemy, it is a question of whether he can survive or not, and not many people care about whether he can get the money or not. But when the war is over, and it is a big victory, then there must be a soldier who has to be added to the ranks, right? The arrears of military salaries have to be paid, right? It's not like the officials don't want to eat!

Coupled with the completion of a war that is known as impossible to win the Lan country, and for a while the fame has risen, don't you have to give money to those who take refuge?

For a time, Lan fell into a financial crisis.
