Chapter 15 - The Witch Clan's Formation
The magnificent mansion in front of him, which covers an area of about five acres, is nothing else, as Baoyi Tongzi said, this is the highest metropolitan office for daily decision-making on military affairs. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 According to the situation introduced by Baoyi Tongzi, here are the outstanding generals or generals selected from all over the world who came to the royal city and were personally tested by His Majesty the Emperors of the Youchao Dynasty. These people are all outstanding talents selected from all over the world, and they will go through a series of selections and tests, and eventually His Majesty the Emperor will personally test them, and if they are satisfied, they can directly use them to enter the governor's palace to hold important positions. A series of military issues, such as armaments, armies, logistics, recruitment, and so on, were basically carried out by the Governor's Office, which was within the scope of their powers. Their decision was then submitted to His Majesty the Emperor, and if His Majesty agreed to their plan, they could send the order directly.
If, on the other hand, His Majesty the Emperor felt that this plan was not very feasible and debatable, the Emperor of the Hidden Dynasty, who was generally more enlightened, would hold talks with the representative who had come to report the news to find a mutually acceptable outcome. Generally speaking, His Majesty the Emperor would agree with this final result, after all, this is a conclusion that has been finally reached after discussion and even debate among many forces and outstanding talents, and its reliability and stability are naturally beyond doubt.
Of course, not every monarch in the history of the You Dynasty was enlightened and virtuous and able to listen to the opinions of his subordinates. According to historical records, in the middle of the Yu Dynasty, there was a monarch who was very fierce and more rigid and self-serving, and in a discussion on the issue of logistics and sending troops to attack foreign tribes and eliminate foreign troubles, the original advice given by the Governor's Office was because the country experienced a natural disaster last year, so it should not send troops like this. Rather, we should take a break to recuperate, reorganize our armaments, and talk about the specifics when we are fully prepared. In fact, it's about taking a long-term view.
However, at that time, His Majesty, the ruler of the Yu Dynasty, sternly rejected the proposal made by the Governor's Office. Instead, he insisted on dispatching the army to the north to conquer foreign tribes, and for him, because he was more brutal and harsh to the people, he had basically lost the support of many ordinary people in the country. That's why he's ready to wage a massive war to regain his reputation. After all, since ancient times, emperors have mainly relied on a hearty victory to restore their reputation, which is enough to redeem everyone's original dissatisfaction with him, so this monarch naturally understands this truth, so he ignores almost everyone's opposition. Single-mindedly chose an extremely dangerous path and sent troops to attack foreign tribes in order to reap the dividends of war.
Enraged, His Majesty the Emperor even went so far as to kill two generals who tried to stop his military campaign in the name of rebellion. In the end, in exchange for a battle that he had been waiting for for a long time, he sent troops from two sides, reorganized an army of nearly 150,000 and launched an attack on the foreign tribes. For this reason, he did not hesitate to personally take command, and in the name of His Majesty the Emperor of the Youchao Dynasty, he sent troops to prepare to fight against foreign tribes. It's just a pity that he is too light on the enemy, and his own timing is not very clear, and the foreign army has already arranged a countermeasure after urgently preparing for a period of time. As a result, the foreign tribe initially showed weakness and sued for peace, and confused the monarch of the Youchao Dynasty with a cowardly attitude, making him think that the foreign tribe no longer had the ability to confront him. He then led an army on a massive invasion and wanted to destroy it in one fell swoop
Then, after adjusting their war preparations, the foreign tribes immediately dispatched their armies from two sides, using the strategy used by wolves to encircle their prey, and annihilate them on both sides. The foreign army that was waiting for work at ease had directly defeated the army of the Hidden Dynasty that was lightly defeated in an instant. The 100,000-strong army of the Youzhao Dynasty was almost wiped out, and His Majesty the Emperor was captured by a foreigner and taken prisoner. In a series of negotiations, the foreign tribes took advantage of His Majesty the Emperor to arbitrarily enter into unequal treaties with the Youchao. So much so that the Youchao paid millions of stone of grain and 50,000 pairs of armor, as well as a barrier in the north, and the conditions of the cities and counties, which reluctantly redeemed the emperor of the Youchao. But it was precisely because of this that the Youzhi Dynasty became weakened, and the foreign tribes used these counties to start the internal migration of the northern nomads and launched a simultaneous campaign, annexing the two surrounding tribes and establishing a highly unified nomadic people.
Within the Youchao, there was a disagreement about the throne and the terms of defeat, and there was a fierce **** within the Youchao. This **** had a far-reaching impact, and even lasted for nearly three years, and later, although the God Emperor ascended the throne, in fact, the situation within the Youchao had become uncontrollable. This **** directly and fundamentally affected the stability and rule of the Youchao, and the fundamental reason for the later decline of the Youchao was actually because of the **** this time. Even though the Divine Emperor ascended the throne, the internal instability of the Yu Dynasty was so unstable that the subsequent situation could not be reversed, and the Divine Emperor worked hard for a long time without yielding results, and finally he still chose to escape from reality and indulge in the immortal arts of alchemy and alchemy. The already internally unstable Yu Dynasty was all pressed on the body of the imperial concubine Phantom Moon, so that it eventually led to destruction and the jade was burned.
Now, these past histories have long been buried in the deep sea and turned into nothing. Feng Yuchong and Baoyi Tongzi, who came here at this time, didn't want to delve into what secrets were once hidden in it. The main reason why they are still here is because now Baoyi Tongzi mentioned that there is the mansion of the general who rebelled and secretly contacted foreign clans on the edge of this governor's mansion. So, Feng Yuchong and Baoyi Tongzi, after a period of visiting and exploring, also appeared in front of this mansion.
Although time has passed, this place has long since lost the prosperity and hustle and bustle of the past, and the entire royal city, including here, seems lifeless. But these buildings have not changed much because of this, the mansion in front of you covers an area of five acres, although the area is not very large, but the construction is relatively exquisite, especially like the breeze blowing up the red eaves at the gate. During the more than 300 years of immersion in the deep sea, the mansion was surrounded by semi-enclosed ice. At this moment, it seems more comfortable and comfortable.
Feng Yuchong and Baoyi Tongzi glanced at each other, but finally decided to push open the door in front of them and enter this mansion. Although it is not clear whether the Qimen gossip was sealed in the mansion by this general, it is at least a more effective method. It's a lot more reliable than looking back and forth in the royal city.
The whole mansion still maintains a relatively cold and cold environment, but the overall architectural effect should basically look the same as in the past. As a result, Feng Yuchong and Baoyi Tongzi scattered, and Baoyi Tongzi continued to look for Qimen gossip that might exist in this mansion, while Feng Yuchong went to other parts of the royal city alone to find his companion who did not know where he was now.
Baoyi Tongzi took the lead in looking at the front hall in front of him, and a red plaque still hanging here above the front hall aroused his great interest. This red plaque has the four big characters "Loyal to the Country". Baoyi Boy knew the ins and outs of these things, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly, this former general was rumored to be the most prominent and loyal general who supported Emperor God in the civil strife of the Yu Dynasty back then. Emperor God reciprocated him, and after Emperor God ascended the throne, he was named the commander of the army, and this general entered every army through ten years of cultivation and training, and he basically completely mastered the entire army of 300,000 people.
Nominally, this army was loyal to the Yu Dynasty and to His Majesty the Emperor of the Gods. But in fact, many low-ranking soldiers in all walks of life didn't even know who the God Emperor was. In their minds, there are only generals who live with them and don't have any generals. But he never thought that this general actually had a different heart, and he wanted to use the support of foreign clans to seize the power of the Youchao and replace it. So, after two years of planning, the general finally seized an opportunity to encourage foreign troops to invade, and he took advantage of the situation to coordinate the army with foreign troops. In less than a month's time, the last new force of the Youzhao Dynasty was completely destroyed, and more than 100,000 elite troops of foreign clans approached the city of Wangcheng. Immediately, the royal city was broken, and the Youchao perished.
At the critical moment of the life and death of the foreign invasion of the Yu Dynasty, the general's seemingly imminent reaction had in fact foreshadowed the outcome of the entire battle. Although Sheng Zhu's rebellion seems to be due to a series of coincidences, in fact, it mainly depends on the internal strife of the Youchao, and the demise of the Youchao was already doomed decades ago.
Now everything has become a thing of the past, but when Baoyi Boy walked into this place, he still unconsciously remembered a lot of the past that he had intersected with this Sheng Zhu before, and his memories of the past were still very deep for this elder. In his impression, Sheng Zhu is a generous elder, and for juniors like Baoyi Tongzi, this is really an inevitable and even indispensable existence on the road to growth, and Baoyi Tongzi has never forgotten it. For Baoyi Boy, the most important person in life is nothing more than the Phantom Moon, which does not need to be repeated, but in fact, the ability and skills to teach Baoyi Boy some ordinary affairs and distinguish government and military affairs are very important for Baoyi Boy. For him, this is basically a mentor-like figure, his rebellion, this matter is too harmful to him, and it is precisely because of this that he chose to accept the request of Phantom Moon gloomily, and went to the Demon Spirit Continent to find Tian Xuan and Bu Qingyun, two self-respecting generals who led the army, to come here to help. This led to a series of consequences.............
Baoyi Boy sighed angrily, the situation in front of him made this series of memories that he had originally hidden in his heart appear in front of him again. Even though he didn't want to think about it, it was inevitable after all.
