"It's going to change......"

Zhang Nan stood in front of the window, looking at the dim sky, his eyes were quite strange. On the table in front of the window, there are large piles of briefings.

This is all the intelligence of various forces in Qingzhou in recent years, and Zhang Nan specially asked Chu Wenting to send it.

Zhang Nan hadn't cared about these things before, but now that he had some new ideas, he had nothing to do to recuperate, so he wanted to take a brief look and understand.

I don't know if I don't see it, but after watching it, Zhang Nan is completely frightened.

The potential danger of Qingzhou in the northern region is even more serious than Zhang Nan expected. Chu Yunguo is just a microcosm, and the situation is not bad.

Taking the seven great powers representing secular forces as an example, Qin Fengguo was in power, the royal family was in decline, the courtiers were fluctuating, and the army listened to the tune and did not listen to the announcement. The dust has settled on the five dragons of the ancient Song Kingdom, but the four defeated princes are unwilling to go out, and the clouds of civil war are thick. The situation varies from other countries to others, but there are problems of one kind or another.

All in all, all countries are now under the cloud of war. The last time the Seven Nations were in a scuffle, the decree was quite unified. But if there is a real big war this time, many countries may be divided.

Faced with this situation, countries have adopted different approaches.

Chu Yunguo and the Southern Tang Kingdom were the victors of the last war, but they did not make the domestic situation stable, knowing that another foreign war was to quench their thirst. Therefore, the Chu family brothers and sisters and Situ Xia Zhen all wanted to make the transition in a peaceful way.

However, there is also the Qin Feng State and the Ancient Song Kingdom, hoping to seize this opportunity to reintegrate the power structure of Qingzhou before Chu Yun and the Southern Tang Dynasty are completely stabilized.

......

"The two monarchs have been thinking about it for three days, and they still can't make a decision?"

The capital of Qinfeng country, Xianyang City.

National Teacher Qin Qianqiu smiled and looked at the two kings in front of him.

Emperor of the Northern Yan Kingdom, Emperor of the Western Zhou Kingdom.

The Xianyang group of heroes will be in the alliance, mainly with the seven major powers. In addition to Qin Fengguo, the master's family, a total of three kings came here. One was the emperor of Wei Wuguo, and the other two were Northern Yan and Western Zhou.

Qin Fengguo had an agreement with the ancient Song Kingdom and Wei Wuguo for a long time, and was ready to attack Chu Yun and Southern Tang. This time, I took the opportunity of the alliance to prepare to tie Beiyan and Xizhou to the same boat.

In fact, for the small actions of the three kingdoms of Qin, Song and Wei, Northern Yan and Western Zhou were not completely unaware. It's just that these two monarchs don't want to wade into this troubled water.

Chu Yun, Southern Tang, Qin Feng, Ancient Song, Wei Wu, these five countries are all located in the Central Plains, each with its own borders, and the border has never been less frictionless. Now Chu Tang is clearly wearing a pair of pants, and it is naturally reasonable for the other three countries to hold together.

The Northern Yan and Western Zhou were relatively remote, bordering only the Qin Feng Kingdom and the Ancient Song Kingdom respectively. Successive monarchs have been pacifists, and they have lived a peaceful life in small fights. Others don't dare to bully them casually, and they don't have the heart to fight for hegemony. The last time the scuffle was just a symbolic mix-in. The benefits were not reaped, but they were not considered losses.

This time, Qin, Song and Wei wanted to fight, but they thought that they would just not add to the chaos. The monarch personally came to the alliance to save face for the organizers, but he didn't think to pull them in.

After arriving in Xianyang City, after the Three Kingdoms greeted them, these two monarchs did not sleep well and kept prevaricating. But today, not only Qin Qianqiu came over, but also Zhao Xiao, the second prince of the ancient Song Kingdom, and Emperor Wei Wuguo were also here. The triumvirate is all the value of not agreeing and not giving up.

"Qin Guoshi. The Emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty sighed: "Such a major event, it is said to be three days, even if it is thirty days and three months, it is not so easy to make up your mind." Moreover, although I am the lord of the Western Zhou Dynasty, I also have to discuss major and minor matters in the country with my ministers. But you have to reply now, even if I agree, I may attract the opposition of the ministers when I return to China. ”

"What Lord Zhou said is extremely true. Emperor Beiyan also said: "Besides, our two countries are remote, and if we use troops against Chu and Tang, we must pass through the border of Qin and Song." With such a labor expedition, logistics and supply are very difficult, and the soldiers are far away from their homeland, so I am afraid that they will not be able to help much. ”

Emperor Wei Wu snorted: "The two of you have repeatedly shirked, but they have already secretly communicated with Chu Tang." ”

The two emperors of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Yan did not speak up, and they did not even glance at Emperor Wu of Wei.

More than half of this country's land has been knocked down, the country is turbulent, the imperial power is unstable, basically equivalent to a lost dog, and now it is to bite whoever is caught, anyway, no matter how bad it is, it will not suffer anywhere. If it weren't for Qin Qianqiu of the Qin Feng Kingdom and the second prince of the Ancient Song Kingdom here, the two emperors of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Yan Kingdom would not have sat with Emperor Wei Wu at all.

"If Qin Guoshi is worried about the rear, I can send the prince to Xianyang to study for a period of time. The emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty said: "The war is not over, and the prince will not return." ”

"I, Beiyan, can also send the prince to study in the ancient Song Kingdom. Emperor Beiyan also immediately expressed his position.

Although they didn't look down on Wei Wuguo, the attitudes of Qin Fengguo and Gu Song couldn't help but take into account. took the initiative to take the prince as a hostage, which can be regarded as full of sincerity.

Qin Qianqiu glanced at the two monarchs and said, "If the Western Zhou Dynasty sends troops, the logistics and military needs will be taken care of by my Qin Fengguo. In addition, the land of the ten counties bordering the Western Zhou Dynasty can also be returned to my Qin Feng Kingdom. ”

The Western Zhou Emperor's pupils shrank.

Logistics and military supplies are still a trivial matter, but the land of the ten counties is too different.

More than 200 years ago, the land of the ten counties was originally from the Western Zhou Dynasty. Later, as the Qin Feng Kingdom continued to grow stronger, the border wars continued, and finally the ten counties were captured.

Although there are also calls for the recovery of the ten counties in the Western Zhou Dynasty, in the face of a behemoth like Qin Fengguo, it is still difficult to protect itself, and it is impossible to regain the lost territory a hundred years ago. If Qin Fengguo is really willing to return the land of the ten counties, the emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty will be equivalent to completing the feat that the previous monarchs have not done, and will leave his name in history and become the first emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

"Is this true?" The Western Zhou Emperor was short of breath: "It's not that I believe in Qin Guoshi, it's just such a big deal......

Soon, the Western Zhou Emperor himself stopped talking.

Because Qin Qianqiu took out a holy decree with the seal of the political affairs hall on it. And the content of the decree is to return the ten counties.

There is the seal of the government hall, which means that this holy decree is not false, but has passed the court and has absolute effect.

Not only the Emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty, but even the Emperor of Northern Yan had a strange look in his eyes.

I have long heard that in the past two years, the imperial power of Qin Feng has been hollowed out, and the national teacher is in power, it seems that it is really not groundless. Such a major event as the land can be used as a bargaining chip by Qin Qianqiu like this.

"The ancient Song Kingdom is also willing to cede the ten counties to Northern Yan. ”

Emperor Beiyan was thinking about it, and the words of Zhao Xiao, the second prince of the ancient Song Kingdom, suddenly startled him.

Zhao Xiao didn't seem to want to talk nonsense, and directly took out a holy decree, which was similar to that of Qin Fengguo, as long as Beiyan sent troops, it would be sent to the land of the ten counties.

In addition to being shocked or shocked, the Northern Yan Emperor and the Western Zhou Emperor looked at each other.

There was no territorial dispute between the ancient Song Kingdom and the Northern Yan Kingdom, and to say that it was a cession was a real cession. Moreover, the two holy decrees are clearly written, as long as the two countries send troops, they can take over the territory as soon as possible, without waiting for the war. In other words, the commission is paid in advance.

In an ordinary national war, even if it is fought very well, the victorious side may not be able to win as much as the land of the ten counties. The last time Wei Wuguo was beaten in half in one go, it was an individual case, and it was also due to lack of preparation. A little wary, it won't be like that.

Take the ten counties that Qin Feng Kingdom seized from the Western Zhou Kingdom, it was not a one-time success, but two hundred years of intermittent and little by little defeat.

Are these Qin Feng Kingdom and Gu Song Kingdom crazy? It seems that this time, they really want to destroy the two countries of Chu and Tang. Otherwise, you won't even be able to recover the cost.

After some negotiations, the two emperors of the Western Zhou and the Northern Yan made up their minds.

This is a sale, dry.

Rushing to the land of the ten counties, even if they are defeated, they will not lose. Unless Qin Feng and Gu Song are destroyed, the flames of war will not be able to burn on their territory.

Of course, they also understand. With such a big interest, this war is certainly not trivial, and it must not be dealt with casually, and it must be brought out with dry goods. Therefore, both monarchs changed their attitudes and were very active in making suggestions. Emperor Wei Wuguo was naturally very excited, and several people gathered there to point out the river, as if they could annex Chu and Tang in an instant.

Zhao Xiao, the second prince of the ancient Song Kingdom, although he occasionally joined the discussion, his eyes couldn't stop skimming Qin Qianqiu.

The territory of his ancient Song Kingdom was not taken out for nothing. It's because Qin Qianqiu has already cut the territory of fifteen counties and given it to the ancient Song Kingdom.

Before the war started, Qin Qianqiu had already sold a quarter of Qin Fengguo's place. Although in the division of interests after the war, Qin Fengguo will definitely take the lion's lead. But before this war started, the outcome was unpredictable, and Qin Fengguo had already paid so much, he was simply a gambler.

Moreover, what the Western Zhou and Northern Yan didn't know was that this premeditated war had always been led by Qin Fengguo, and his ancient Song Kingdom and Wei Wuguo were all passive. In other words, it is Qin Qianqiu who leads.

Qin Qianqiu is the reincarnation powerhouse of the Qin Feng Country, protecting the Qin Feng Country for hundreds of years. In the past, he had always been a relatively stable person, and he would not interfere with the imperial power.

But in the past two years, Qin Qianqiu seems to have changed as a person. First of all, he agitated the monarch, and if he couldn't agitate, he simply seized power and overthrew the emperor. With Qin Qianqiu's ability and background, it is not difficult to do this, but it is really incomprehensible.

If this premeditated war can be successful, Qin Fengguo will definitely be able to achieve hegemony. But if it fails, it will be doomed.

If Wei Wuguo gambled like this, Zhao Xiao would not be surprised at all. But Qin Qianqiu did this, and no one could figure it out. If it weren't for the fact that the benefits were so great that it was difficult to refuse, the ancient Song Kingdom would definitely not dare to accept it casually.

"Perhaps, Qin Qianqiu's longevity is coming to an end......" Zhao Xiao guessed.

In the ancient Song Dynasty, when they discussed it before, this was also the most recognized conclusion. Most of the time Qin Qianqiu's longevity is approaching, and Qin Fengguo has no successor. Qin Qianqiu wanted to get enough benefits for Qin Fengguo while he was alive, and finally went crazy.

Zhao Xiao stole a glance at Qin Qianqiu thoughtfully, and Qin Qianqiu, as a reincarnation powerhouse, also had a sense of it.

He knew Zhao Xiao's guess, and he knew that that guess was wrong. Just to not make people feel too distracted, he is willing to see this misunderstanding.

Qin Qianqiu's longevity is not over, and he can at least protect Qin Fengguo for three hundred years, far from when he was crazy about gambling. But because of the appearance of someone, he had to go crazy.

Zhang Nan.

The method that Qin Qianqiu practiced had a certain ability to predict. Although he can't predict the future, he will have a certain sense of many major events.

He clearly saw that the Qin Feng Kingdom was destroyed.

Qin Qianqiu's divination prophecies are many, but never have they been so clear.

He didn't know the cause of his demise, but there were many clues to refer to. After countless deductions, Qin Qianqiu confirmed that it was related to the rise of Chu Yunguo.

In the clearest deduction, he saw the fluttering Chuyun battle flag in the ruins of Xianyang City.

The flag is so clear, and Qin Qianqiu is so afraid.

He wanted to eliminate that fear, and he wanted to save the future of Qin Fengguo.

If Chu Yun Kingdom and Southern Tang Kingdom continue to be so strong, they will one day annex Qin Feng. And in the days when Zhang Nan is away, it will be his only chance to turn the tables.

It is certainly a good thing for Zhang Nan to die outside, but if he comes back alive, he must completely eradicate the hidden danger of Chu Yunguo before he comes back.

As long as Chu Yunguo is gone, even if Zhang Nan comes back to ask for the crime, it will be his own crime, and it will be a big deal to pay for his life. No matter how domineering Zhang Nan is, it is impossible to sweep away Qin Fengguo by himself.

He was the protector of Qin Feng Country, and he died for Qin Feng Country, where he died.

Uniting all the forces that can be united is only the first step, and now that the Western Zhou and Northern Yan are on board, the second step can be implemented.

If Chu Yun is destroyed, his wings must be eradicated first.

Southern Tang.

And the safety of the Southern Tang Kingdom is basically related to the body of one person.

Situ Xia Zhen.

Situ Xiazhen, who is in Xianyang City at the moment.

In Xianyang City, Situ Xia is really a turtle in the urn, and there is no need to worry about not succeeding. As for the adverse effects afterwards, it is not in Qin Qianqiu's consideration.

What Qin Qianqiu needs to consider now is just a choice.

Is it a simple captivity, or once and for all.

Do you want......

Kill her.
