Chapter 512: A Different Beginning of a Story
Obviously, not only Cihang Jingzhai's family thought of using the disputes in the rivers and lakes to block Wu Guogong Lei Hu's footsteps to integrate the south, but other forces in the north who were interested in dominating the world also did not look at it.
Yuwen Shi and the south went to Jiangdu, with enough Jianghu experts trained and recruited by Yuwen Valve, a combination of more than a dozen first-class and second-rate experts, no matter where they are placed, they are a very strong force.
Their purpose was to collect the secret books of the "Recipe of Longevity" scattered in the Jiangdu area, under the banner of doing things for Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, but their real purpose was to disturb the rivers and lakes in the Jianghuai region and block or sabotage the expansion of Wu Guogong to the north.
The task is quite arduous, and it is also very dangerous, and one bad thing is that there is no return.
But Yuwen had to send core members south, otherwise they would have no chance.
On the deck of a large five-toothed ship, Yu Wenshi and his men whispered to each other, not paying the slightest attention to the picturesque scenery on both sides of the canal.
"Your Majesty is still too cautious, if General Yuwen can lead the post of Jiangdu to stay behind, we can better complete the task!"
Although he knows what to do about this southward mission, he is a good player in this line of work on the bright side, and his speech and communication are quite high-sounding, as if he is really dedicated to the Sui Emperor Yang Guang.
"The Jianghuai region is not very peaceful, whether it is Du Fuwei or Li Zitong, it is not a fuel-efficient lamp, which one does the general plan to start with?"
"It depends on the situation, the Haisha Gang that crisscrossed the Yangtze River basin before was a subordinate gang of our Yuwen Valve, I didn't expect that a few days ago it would mutiny and join Wu Guogong's men, I would like to ask the top management of the Haisha Gang, Yuwen Valve's ship is not so good!"
"General, I'm afraid it's not good to be too tough, after all, it is Wu Guogong's territory, if we provoke this world's number one master, we won't be able to eat and walk around!"
"What are you afraid of, we are acting on the orders of the saint, even Wu Guogong has to give some face in person!"
“……”
As for the so-called collection of the "Recipe for Longevity", they didn't even mention it, obviously they had a lot of it in their hearts.
It is said that Lei Hu got the secret book of "Longevity Formula" from Shi Long, and directly made the seven pairs of luck and exercise pictures painted on it public, causing an uproar in the Central Plains.
The branches of the Wumeng even sold it openly for a period of time, and it was not difficult to collect seven complete pairs of Xinggong luck charts, but the amount of money and points needed was not a small number, and ordinary martial arts people really couldn't afford it.
But that's the case, with the energy of Yuwen Valve, he had already collected all the seven Xinggong luck maps, and the masters recruited and cultivated by the family did not spend energy to ponder and comprehend, but unfortunately they all ended in failure.
Later, everyone thought that the secret book of "Longevity Formula" was incomplete, and the luck chart alone could not be cultivated at all, so they slowly extinguished their fiery thoughts.
This time, Yuwen Valve sent a master to toss in the land of Jianghuai and even in the south of the Yangtze River, and just took out the "Recipe for Eternal Life" as an excuse to directly kill Benjiangdu through the relationship of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui.
When the seven pairs of exercise luck charts of "Longevity Formula" were first released, Lei Hu did not hide the idea too much, but everyone in the rivers and lakes who had some energy knew that the secret book of "Longevity Formula" fell into the hands of Shi Long, the first master of Yangzhou.
It's not that no one has ever beaten Shi Long's idea before, and he needs to be able to obtain the complete "Recipe for Longevity" cheats, but the result is naturally nothing.
The mountain pusher Shi Long jumped out of the big pit of "Longevity" early, with the help of the broad platform of the Wumeng, as well as the sporadic guidance of Wu Guogong Lei Hu, his martial arts have advanced by leaps and bounds and have reached the realm of the late congenital stage, and he is not much different from the congenital peak.
With such strength, he can definitely be called a top master.
As long as it is not the first master of the gate valve family, or the top masters of Buddhism and the Demon Gate, or the grandmaster-level powerhouse, it can be said that it is invincible.
It is the first master of the younger generation of Yuwen valve at this time in the original work, Yu Wenhua, and the opponent Shi Long is also defeated and invincible, which is called the masters and forces of the rivers and lakes who want to fight his idea, and they often return in an instant.
This time, the core members of the Yuwen Valve, taking advantage of the opportunity of Emperor Yang Guang of the Tiger Wei Sui, said that the emperor who was obsessed with life and death pursued the idea of immortality, and got the imperial order of 'acting cheaply' to go south to Jiangdu.
In fact, the best candidate to go south is Yu Wenhua, as the first master of the younger generation of Yuwen Valve, his strength is much stronger than that of Yuwen Shihe, and the official position on his body can do a lot more, but unfortunately he can't withdraw at this time.
No matter how ridiculous and unreliable Yang Guang was at this time, his orthodox identity was quite crucial.
Yu Wenhua and as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, he is the most important existence that Yuwen Valve has placed beside Yang Guang, and he can do some things by influencing Yang Guang, which is still quite useful, and naturally he will not give up easily.
So, this time it can only be brought forward by Yuwenshi, whether it can be done is another matter, Yuwen valve must make a move, otherwise it is really difficult to feel at ease.
What is hateful is that although Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty has lost his ambition and has been completely decadent in drunken dreams all day long, his brain is still sober, no matter how many means and strength Yuwen has used, Yang Guang has not let go of his mouth and left Jiang Du in the position, but is led by his confidants and important ministers.
This made the high-level Yuwen valve who was eager to find a foothold extremely depressed, and this time Yuwen Shi and the south went to Jiangdu, and with the emperor's order, he also took the idea of leaving the Jiangdu in the wrong place.
Will be outside, the king's order will not be granted!
If he could really catch the major mistakes left behind in Jiangdu now, Yu Wenshi didn't mind using that thunderous means to take people down and forcibly take over the military and political power of Jiangdu.
Yuwen valve has been a step slower in the process of dominating the world, and has not found a good foothold until now, and it is really difficult to do much in the north.
The land of Jin fell into the hands of Li Valve, and they also had direct support from the Turks, and Yuwen Valve was not sure that he would be able to do it over Li Valve, so he could only watch the other party recruit troops and expand his power in Jindi.
The land of Heluo is operated by Yang Lin, the king of the mountain, like an iron bucket, and the Yuwen valve has not much to meddle in, but the power in the hands of the Yang royal family is too strong, and hundreds of thousands of elite Sui troops can be invincible in the north as long as they command it properly.
In the vast area north of the Yellow River, there are still a lot of territory for Yuwen to gain a foothold.
It's just a pity that both Jidi and Ludi are too chaotic, and the heroes are rising one after another, and none of the guys who raise the banner of rebellion are good to live with.
Yuwen Valve secretly contacted these rebel leaders in private, or coerced or lured many times, and even had assassination and sneak attacks by masters, but in the end, they all returned in vain.
The powerful rebel forces north of the Yellow River are not just talking, and with the strength of the Yuwen Valve at this time, it is really tough.
Moreover, the martial arts of the rebel leaders are not ordinarily powerful, at least they all have a first-class mid-term level, even Yu Wenhua, the first master of the younger generation of Yuwen Valve, and he may not be able to win it in person.
In addition, these rebels are definitely outnumbered, and the Yuwen valve has no choice but to give up the idea of secretly controlling one or two rebels as shadows.
Moreover, Yang Guang is quite stingy with the position of staying in the important town of the Northland, which is not easy to get if he wants to, but it is difficult for Yuwen Valve to get a piece of land in the Northland, and in the end he has no choice but to give up temporarily.
Jiangdu is a good choice, although it is close to the Yangtze River and adjacent to the forces controlled by Wu Guogong, it is difficult to develop without even being affected by Wu Guogong's territory.
But this is really a good base, built according to the standards of the capital, surrounded by anointed land, if any party controls Jiangdu, they are qualified to participate in the hegemony of the world.
Of course, if you want to control Jiangdu or even make a difference, you must have strong strength as your hole card, otherwise you will not be able to withstand the terrifying pressure from the south of the Yangtze River.
Yuwen valve has this confidence, but unfortunately Yang Guang didn't give him a chance, and they could only plan secretly.
……
Qiantang Chengguo Mansion, as a well-deserved political center in the entire south, is full of people coming and going every day, and countless news from all over the world are gathered here, so that Wu Guogong Lei Hu can accurately grasp the overall situation of the world, make accurate judgments and formulate correct development strategies.
Although most of the government affairs have been handed over to his subordinates, some things have to be decided by Lei Hu himself.
Like what......
"Wu Gong, Yuwen of the Yuwen Valve and a dozen masters went south by boat, the purpose is unknown, do you want to teach them a lesson, and ask them to be honest when they arrive in Jiangdu?"
Yu Wenshi and the southbound did not hide from anyone, his whereabouts were naturally all under the watchful eye of the secret agents of the Wu State Mansion, and now he was about to arrive at his destination, and the important ministers in charge of intelligence collection and analysis in the Wu State Mansion naturally wanted to give him a disadvantage.
Fools know that this guy is definitely not at ease when he goes south, since this is the case, then there is no need to be polite, it is good to strike first to give Yuwen Shi and Yuwen Valve behind him a deep impression.
"Didn't he threaten to collect the entire book of the 'Recipe for Longevity', it is estimated that he will have a conflict with Shi Long, so let Shi Long teach him a good lesson!"
Lei Hu smiled lightly: "Just tell him to restrain a little, there is no need to strike too much, without the Yuwen valve tossing in the land of Jianghuai, the water there is still not muddy enough!" ”
Because of the good relationship with the orthodox Daomen, Lei Hu can get a lot of accurate news about the northern land, such as the causes and consequences of Yu Wenshi and going south to Jiangdu, as well as the news that Fan Qinghui, the lord of Cihang Jingzhai Zhai, quietly went down the mountain and did not know what to do, and Dugu Ce's Dugu Ce also went south, etc.
"Wu Gong, the news about Yang Gong's treasure has been spreading on the rivers and lakes recently, and the Goguryeo Rakshasa has assassinated several officials in the North!"
The intelligence officer was still unhurried to report......
