Chapter 213: Entering Xuzhou City
When an army of 3,000 soldiers approached the northern checkpoint of the city, even if this army was still a little uneven, even if the equipment of this army was inconsistent, and even the most basic position was not accurate.
But the momentum of the three thousand people came out, and when they fought there, the spiritual power on their bodies was faintly released, and the Zhong family army stationed opposite the checkpoint instantly confessed.
This is simply a battle with no suspense of victory or defeat, and everyone understands this, so when the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce was preparing to attack, the Zhong family finally surrendered.
This vote means that the entire northern part of the city, 50% of the area of Xuzhou City, surrendered.
Zhong Hong, the head of the Zhong family, took the entire Zhong family and nearly 2,000 soldiers to surrender to the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce without fighting.
Mu Changan said that he was very happy, patted his chest and promised not to take away a spirit stone from their Zhong family, and would give them a heavy responsibility, which made the Zhong family breathe a sigh of relief.
The surrender of the Zhong family also caught the Zhao family a little off guard, and after a quick weighing, the head of the Zhao family chose to take his clansmen and some of his subordinates to the west of the city.
The Zhao family did not choose to surrender.
But it doesn't matter, Mu Changan's subordinates don't need waste, and they will have to be cleaned up when the province surrenders.
The surrender of the Zhong family and the escape of the Zhao family also indicated that the entire Xuzhou City was now included in Mu Chang'an's bag, and Xuzhou City was also unified for the first time after five years of spiritual energy exhaustion.
As soon as the news came out, the residents of the entire Xuzhou City were happy, because the separation of the three families would inevitably lead to some conflicts, resulting in chaos in Xuzhou City and unspeakable people. Now that the city of Xuzhou is unified, it is bound to bring further stability to Xuzhou.
And according to this period of time, everyone has a certain understanding of the magnanimity of the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce, and they all think that the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce will definitely bring certain benefits to the residents of Xuzhou.
The forces surrendered, and the people's hearts were submitted, so that Mu Chang'an's reception of the entire Xuzhou became much smoother, and it took only one day to complete the recovery, and the rest of the miscellaneous events belonged to internal affairs.
Mu Changan has been in Xuzhou City for a long time, and the national competition of the Global Martial Arts Conference is approaching, Mu Changan has no time to continue to spend here, and he is not good at how to govern the city, so he must find a city lord who can take over the entire Xuzhou City for him.
For the first time, Mu Changan thought of the woman who helped him seize Xuzhou City.
Immediately, he called someone in.
"Young Master Ben wants you to be the lord of Xuzhou City, what do you think?" Mu Changan asked straightforwardly.
The veiled woman shook her head and replied, "The little girl is only a shallow learner, and I am afraid it will be difficult to take on a big responsibility." ”
"Excessive modesty is hypocrisy, Young Master Ben thinks you can do it, you can do it!" Mu Changan was a little unhappy, why is this woman so hypocritical?
"What does Mu Gongzi think of Zhong Hong, the head of the Zhong family? The Zhong family was originally one of the four great families in Xuzhou, and they were familiar with all aspects of Xuzhou City, and they were very handy in governing Xuzhou City, and they were one of the suitable candidates for the city lord. The woman in the veil didn't answer, took the initiative to change the topic, and introduced Zhong Hong to him.
"If he becomes the city lord, won't his power be even greater? What if he wants to turn against the water one day?" Mu Changan asked puzzledly, Zhong Hong still has two thousand men and horses under his hands now, if he becomes the city lord, won't so many people and horses in Xuzhou City have to listen to his dispatch, and when the time comes, won't he spend spirit stones to raise soldiers for others?
"Give him the position of the city lord, let him govern Xuzhou City, use the position of the city lord as a pacification, cut his military power, and appoint another person as the general of Xuzhou City, in charge of the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou City, to balance Zhong Hong. The veiled woman said word by word.
"Then who will be the main general?" asked Mu Changan. The method is feasible, but there is no suitable candidate! The only person who can handle the entire Yongle City is a Mengcheng general, but Mengcheng not only has to defend Yongle City, but also its own strength is not enough to deter Zhong Hong, and it will definitely suffer a loss at that time.
"The little woman knows a person, now hidden in a blacksmith shop in the north of the city, was once a famous general in a radius of thousands of miles, and was deeply used by the previous lord of Xuzhou City. ”
"Why are you helping me so much?" Mu Changan finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to ask.
This woman's patience is really good, she didn't put forward what she wanted from beginning to end, she just gave Mu Changan ideas.
When the veiled woman heard this, the corners of her mouth under the veil seemed to rise slightly, and she replied, "I'm just verifying whether my guess is correct." ”
"What do you mean?" asked Mu Changan with a frown.
The veiled woman refused to answer directly, but got up and saluted, and said, "The little woman has no ill will towards Mu Gongzi, and she has nothing to ask for, and she hopes that Mu Gongzi can rest assured." ”
"No!" Mu Changan shook his head violently and said, "You have to ask for something, so that Young Master Ben can use you with peace of mind, otherwise he can only drive you away." ”
What are the jokes, the people who don't want anything are the most terrible.
Because she might be thinking about you as a person!
The veiled woman was stunned, and she didn't seem to expect Mu Changan to say anything to drive her away, so she chuckled, and then replied: "If Mu Gongzi has to ask the little girl to find a reason, then it should be that the little girl wants to seek a refuge." ”
"Heh, you really have a lot of thoughts about the beauty of this young master. ”
“......”
......
After another day of understanding and appointment, Mu Changan finally issued an order.
First of all, Zhong Hong took the initiative to surrender to sincerity, and voluntarily gave up the military power in his hands, and was appointed as the new city lord of Xuzhou City, in charge of all government affairs in Xuzhou City.
Secondly, Tuoba Wujing was appointed as the general of Xuzhou City, in charge of the 5,000 soldiers and horses left behind in Xuzhou City, guarding the safety of Xuzhou City.
Finally, the woman with a veil, that is, Zhou Shang, was appointed as the housekeeper of Xuzhou City to manage all financial expenditures of Xuzhou City.
At this point, the appointment of Xuzhou City was completed, and Mu Changan signed an equal contract with the three of them as a guarantee, and if the three of them escaped between the contracts, or violated any of the rules set by the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce, they would be severely punished.
After getting these done, Mu Changan left in a hurry, he had to go to the national competition, otherwise it would be too late.
As for how to govern Xuzhou City, this is a matter of Mu Chang'an, leaving five million spirit stones for Zhou Shang as development funds, leaving Zhang Mingyang in Xuzhou City to tell them the purpose of making money from the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce.
The twenty-person team ridden by Cangxue Lion was still leaning on a place ten miles away from Yongle City, and there were several times when Mu Changan wanted to fight directly, but then he thought that the other party did not show any hostility, so he simply let them stay there, and after returning to Yongle City, he found the little medicine fairy and took the latest batch of spirit pills and returned to the grocery store.
The time has come to December 8th, and the ninth day is the opening ceremony of the National Championship of the Global Martial Arts Conference, but fortunately, it will still be daytime, although Chang'an Mansion is far away from Hexi County, but it is a two-hour thing to take by plane.
Thinking of this, Mu Changan took out his mobile phone and prepared to buy tickets, but found that there were a few unread messages and several phone calls that he hadn't received.
Among them, there are Liang Tao, there are Zuo Qianqiu's, and there is even an unfamiliar number, all of which are 9999.
I don't know which big guy called.
Ignore the phone and open the social software to check the information.
Zuo Qianqiu: "Master Mu, I'm waiting for you in Chang'an Mansion." ”
This is a message sent five days ago.
The super fierce little brain axe: "The advertisement shot by you here has been completed, do you want to watch it first?"
This is a message from six days ago, and then there's a message from her below.
The super fierce cerebellar axe: "The advertisement is released, the effect is very good, 300,000 spirit beast eggs will be sold out soon, and you need to start supplying them here." ”
This is a message that came three days ago.
There are also later, but it's all ???, plus two voice call pop-ups, obviously because Mu Changan didn't reply to the message.
Mu Changan replied with a message: "Wait for the supply after the national competition." ”
Then he quit, and the third one was sent by the second dog.
Why did I see a contestant with the same name and surname as you, and they were all from Hexi County?"
"But it shouldn't be possible, that person also has a cousin, what is Mu Lifeng, or what is the world's number one master, which is completely inconsistent with your identity as an orphan of the Soft Rice King. ”
"Alas, this is probably the same name and different fate, other Mu Chang'an has unlimited scenery, Mu Chang'an I know sells sausages at home, tsk......"
After reading it, Mu Changan silently found the key to delete his friend and deleted it directly.
This kind of person, what do you keep it for?
After all this, Mu Changan booked two tickets to Chang'an Mansion in four hours, and there was no airport in Hexi County, so he had to go to Jinling Mansion to do it.
So I had to set off immediately to rush to the airport in Jinling Province.
Casually packed up and put on a backpack, Mu Changan first called a hippopotamus to take a taxi, and then took Lifeng out, during which he received a message from the super fierce little brain axe.
"What are you doing at home during this period of retreat, why don't you send you messages and calls?"
"Yes, cultivation is like this, there is no concept of time, what's the matter?" Mu Changan replied to the message, and took Lifeng into the car, and the car headed towards Jinling Mansion.
The other party is typing......
"We deliberately let Lin Li go some time ago, and accidentally found that he had found a group of people to enter the Aba Mountain area, and according to my inference, he should have gone to find the real ruin alone. ”
"Why did you leave you behind?" Mu Changan asked curiously.
The other party is typing......
"The things collected from the ruins last time were divided according to the previous agreement, and he probably felt that he had gained too little, and his mentality changed, so he thought about going it alone. ”
This belongs to human nature, after all, Mu Changan and Mi Zhu together account for the majority, and it is good that Lin Li did not get the benefits of the ruins, but now that he has tasted the sweetness, he will naturally not be willing to cut off most of the benefits to Mi Zhu and Mu Changan.
"Then what do you want to do?" asked Mu Changan.
He didn't care about this matter, but he still had to know the address of the ruins, after all, he had to find a time to destroy it when the time came, so as to avoid the dimensional rift from opening five years later.
"Of course I sent someone to follow me, how can my Mizhu be so easy to be used?" replied the super fierce cerebellar axe.
Mu Changan looked at this news and fell silent, if he said so, would he Mu Changan also use Mi Zhu? If so, does Mi Zhu also have a certain precaution against himself?
Thinking of this, Mu Changan was inexplicably a little uncomfortable, closed his phone and looked at the scenery speeding by outside the window, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
