Chapter 238 The Situation of Northern Yan
But this does not affect Cheng Dieyi's potential, although she is still a rookie in the realm of qi, her various behaviors in her previous life have been able to show her strength, although it is only a ten-year contract, but Yan Xuelan believes that she can definitely control it.
Su Tianyu was slightly worried, "Your Highness, is it just that the Heavenly Dao Contract can really guarantee her loyalty?" And ten years is still a martial artist with a qi realm, how much role can she play? ”
Yan Xuelan looked confident: "Don't worry, I really don't need to offer any verbal words such as loyalty, I just need Cheng Dieyi to be used by me, loyalty is such a thing, just talk about it, as long as you give enough benefits, you don't have to worry about loyalty at all, and there is potential, maybe Lao Su you found out that Cheng Dieyi does have some good points, but you still don't know enough about his potential, don't look at it now that he is just a martial artist with a good realm, maybe it may be no less than your achievements in a few years, Don't forget, when you were about the same age as him, didn't you also soar to the sky, and in just a few years, you reached the Tongmai realm, but it really attracted the attention of many noble girls. ”
"Hehehe, too, since His Highness has confidence, I won't say much, but I don't know what His Highness has to discuss when he came over with me and Little Brother Chen." Su Tianyu inevitably thought of himself again, indeed, because Cheng Dieyi is actually not the identity of the human race, he does have some disdain, but Yan Xuelan must have something to look up to, and it is because of this that Su Tianyu retracted a cynical expression and began to be serious.
"Of course, it's the form of the court today, hehe, seeing that spring is about to begin, the aliens in the north are going to be in turmoil again, the outside is unstable, and the court has not stopped recently, and there are still people secretly who are starting to do things." Yan Xuelan's face was gloomy, and she slowly told some of the big and small events during this period of time.
First of all, foreign affairs, that is, the alien races in northern Xinjiang, now the winter has passed early, the heavy snow covering the northern Xinjiang is slowly dispersing, and the grass on the grassland is also beginning to take root. The warriors of 10,000 enemies are more often a competition of the country's comprehensive national strength, and with sufficient logistical support, the soldiers will have a guarantee, and the generals will have room to play.
Don't think that a warrior can reach the stage of Bigu that does not eat the fireworks of the world in the script. On the contrary, the more profound a martial artist's cultivation is, the more he needs a lot of nutrients to maintain his qi and blood. It's just that at the beginning, it was an ordinary home-cooked meal, and later on, it needed some more precious spiritual food to maintain the activity of qi and blood, so this is also an important reason why high-level martial artists are relatively rare.
In the spring, the people of Northern Xinjiang will also start grazing, and the northern wolves who have recuperated for a winter will also show their fangs at this time, and the target is the fat of Beiyan.
The nomads in northern Xinjiang are not good at farming, so many times when they go south to Beiyan to fight the autumn wind, in addition to robbing gold and silver treasures, they are also population.
is different from the imaginary rumors of the murder of the alien race in northern Xinjiang, in fact, the alien race is reluctant to kill the people of Beiyan, and these people often have a great effect. Men and women, young and old.
Young adults can provide labor for the aliens, become slaves or be part of the cannon fodder on the battlefield. In the harsh environment of northern Xinjiang, population is often an important aspect that restricts the development of alien races.
And those children are even more loved by foreign races, because the children are young and the world view has not yet been finalized, the children of Beiyan can be caught by the foreign races playing and educated according to the methods of the clan since they were young, and within a few years there will be one more warrior in the tribe who can contribute.
Unless the old man is seriously ill or unable to move, he is often taken by a foreign race to do farm work.
After years of contact, the alien race is not without a little progress, they are not good at cultivating land, but it does not mean that they cannot kidnap the common people of Beiyan to farm for them.
Of course, the lives of these captured Beiyan people are not very good, and even if they maintain an immortal state in ordinary life, it is not necessarily in the event of a war.
After so many years of fighting, the alien races in Northern Yan and Northern Xinjiang can roughly know when they can invade, and now the imperial court has begun to mobilize defense, trying to reduce the time as much as possible.
Although there is a Great Wall in northern Xinjiang, it does not completely isolate the alien race from the northern Yan, and many of them have mountain roads, paths, and even waterways. The roads are complex and changeable, and even if the passes are established, there are only dozens or hundreds of people at most, and such a small number of people is simply delivering food for the alien races in northern Xinjiang who can fight well.
Therefore, all parts of northern Xinjiang are in a state of active preparation for war every year, except for winter.
However, in the eyes of the losses of the alien races in northern Xinjiang last winter, the news came from the side of the Great Wall that some relatively small tribes, sheep and cattle were hit by the blizzard.
For some small tribes of 100 people, it is a catastrophe, without cattle and sheep, they have no daily food source, there is a lack of wool, goat milk, milk, etc. for trading, there is no food, there is no money where to ensure the survival of the tribe, there are only two ways, either to defect to the big tribe, start again as a tribal warrior, or to seek refuge in Beiyan.
Just like the Beiyan people, not everyone likes to fight and kill with other races, and some people especially like to turn their elbows outside, obviously they are orthodox in the Central Plains, but they like to make eye contact with other races. The same is true for people of different races, if you don't enjoy the good life of Beiyan, you have to fight with the wind and snow on the grassland, is there a problem with your brain, and besides, Beiyan also has a preferential policy for treating the aliens who have defected, whether you want to settle down or want to mix a position in the army, it is very feasible.
It is because of such a policy that every winter some unfortunate small tribes defect to the Northern Yan, which brings good cavalry instructors to the Northern Yan.
There are even alien soldiers in the Iron Cavalry, but now they have all faded away from the previous barbaric acts, and they are all glorious Northern Yan soldiers, and there are many foreign races among the high-level generals of the Iron Cavalry, and even the Iron Cavalry has a Lou Fu battalion. It was the army composed of the first foreign warriors of the Loufan tribe, a large tribe of Northern Yan, and they also made great achievements in the battle with their former compatriots.
At present, the imperial court estimates that today's alien races in northern Xinjiang are likely to make a big move again, and when the time comes, as the closest to the Great Wall, Jianzhou will definitely have all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes, gods and the like, and the burden of embroidered clothes and guards may be very heavy, Yan Xuelan is to give the two of them a thorough understanding in advance, so that they can have a psychological preparation, and when they return to Jianzhou, Su Tianyu and Chen Zheng's leisurely life is very likely to end, and they will fall into a long period of overtime, of course, the possibility of some important tasks is not ruled out, and it is also possible to go into battle to kill the enemy.
After talking about external troubles, of course, there will be internal worries. Of course, this internal worry is mainly aimed at the internal affairs of the Beiyan Imperial Court, and many times the discourse power of some major sects is even heavier than the weight of the imperial court, don't look at Yan Xuelan, the eldest princess, who is still more valued in Beiyan, if she goes to some major sects, no one may have much respect for her, but more often it is to give Yan Chaohui a face.
The previous lords of Northern Yan acted recklessly, completely ignoring the livelihood of the people in the country and many contradictions, and even wanted to transfer the domestic crisis through war, but unfortunately, not only did they lose the battle against the alien races in Northern Xinjiang, but they were also defeated in the battle with Great Xia. As a result, the country has been empty for many years, and the people are struggling to make a living, and some martial arts families and martial arts sects have wantonly expanded their influence at this time, and gradually formed a situation that can compete with the Northern Yan Imperial Court, but fortunately, there is no such dizzy guy who wants to add a certain crown to his head.
If someone does do this, it is likely to attract a joint attack from several other countries. Why is that? In fact, the current five major countries are actually the products of the previous Great Zhou Dynasty falling apart, although each country has the idea of annexing the other four countries, but they are all orthodox of the Great Zhou, some of you Jianghu families and martial arts sects and our five parties are not people in the same circle, if you want to reach in and play, but you have to face the five people.
Just like more than 200 years ago, there was a very serious crisis in South Vietnam, when many tribes of the Nanban united and jointly elected a Nanban king, and this Nanban king is indeed a man of the hour, not only the martial arts are very deep, but also the chest is full of strategy, under his leadership, the Nanban tribes laid down two-thirds of the land of South Vietnam in one breath, and the destruction of the country is imminent.
If someone had come to pick peaches at this time, South Vietnam would have been properly destroyed, and there were many people in the land of South Vietnam who still survived at that time who had such thoughts.
Just when they were about to carry out the operation, an eye-catching scene appeared, and the Western Liang, Daxia, and Donglu, who had often attacked South Vietnam, sent a large number of reinforcements, and the Northern Yan, who was entangled with the aliens at that time, also sent a partial division to support.
No matter how powerful the Nanban King is, the hearts of those who pick peaches are even bigger, and in the face of the combined strength of the five countries, they will quickly fight the gg. When the South Vietnamese were relieved of the danger of national annihilation, reinforcements from the remaining four countries quickly returned to their home countries as if nothing had happened.
This is the current complex situation of the five major countries, sometimes intimate, sometimes hostile, but in essence, it is the five little dolls under the big roof of Da Zhou who are grabbing the position of the boss, they can allow each other to fight to the death, but it is absolutely taboo for outsiders to reach in.
It's okay for each of the five of us to play, but the rest of you don't want to be one of the five or even the sixth. Therefore, those martial arts sects of the Jianghu family expanded their power under the compromise of the previous generation of Emperor Yan, and even helped Beiyan repel the invading Daxia army, nominally they still focused on Beiyan, it was indeed they who saved the weak Beiyan, but in fact they became parasites under the big tree of Beiyan, absorbing the nutrients of Beiyan little by little to strengthen themselves.
Thanks to the current Yan Emperor Yan Chaohui was born, not only swept away foreign enemies, but also vigorously improved people's livelihood over the years, and dealt with I don't know how many government affairs.
The livelihood of the people in Beiyan has just improved, and some people have moved their minds and want to stretch out their hands, but Yan Xuelan also knows that this is the acquiescence of the old man Yan Chaohui, otherwise it would be a dare for those princes, and they would not dare to blatantly form a party for personal gain like now, win over the courtiers, and even stretch out their hands to the six departments of the imperial court.
And Yan Jiuli, the eldest prince and Yan Jiusi, the second prince, who are known as the most favorable candidates for the throne, have not been an ordinary jump recently.
Maybe it's because of his age, Yan Chaohui is also thinking about the heirs of the next generation of Northern Yan, usually the princes run their own princes' mansions, train private troops, make friends, and develop industries, which are all small fights, and a real ruler also needs to be familiar with the operation of the imperial court and many government affairs.
Yan Chaohui has always believed that just listening to the guidance of famous court teachers has no effect, and only by really devoting himself to the cause of the country can he truly give full play to his talents.
The day before yesterday, Yan Chaohui just announced a news above the court, all the princes and princesses under his knees have the right to choose one of the six parts of the court to start learning to deal with government affairs, this is not only a test for them, but also a test for the prince and princess The forces behind them, of course, the best people are the future crown princes, as for the others, there are different levels of rewards for the situation, and the benefits are so great that both those princes and princesses and ministers above the court can't help but want to drool.
Many people with lofty ideals are secretly praising His Majesty Emperor Yan today that he does have the means, and now that Emperor Yan is in good health, even if he is competing for the crown prince, he can control the danger within a certain range, so as not to have a tragedy in the same room.
