Yunzhou City.

Today's sky is not good, and the gray sky is like a pot lid that oppresses mountains and rivers, which makes people feel a little breathless.

Because there was no sun, the spring breeze blowing through the city walls was quite cold.

Zhao Ning, whose clothes were flying, stood on the Xicheng Tower with his hands in his hands, looking at the southwest direction silently, motionless as if a stone carving, and he didn't know how long he had been standing.

Finally, a figure swept in from the northwest and landed beside Zhao Ning, breaking the silence for a long time.

"Brother Ning, can you sense it, there is a terrifying fluctuation of cultivation power in the direction of Bianliang!" Wei Wuxian couldn't wait to speak as soon as he fell, "The cultivation power of the Wang Ji Realm is far surpassing!"

The distance between Yunzhou and Bianliang is only six or seven hundred miles, and for the cultivators of the Wang Ji Realm, the huge fluctuations in the cultivation power of this level in the Heavenly and Human Realms can be felt even if Rao can't see it.

It was the bright moon in the long dark night, and it was difficult for people on earth to notice it.

Zhao Ning looked at Wei Wuxian, who was like an ant on a hot pot, and motioned to the other party not to get excited, "If I hadn't sensed it, I wouldn't have stood here." ”

This was actually said with some reservations, and he had already come to the castle tower today.

In his judgment, Tian Yuan Khan should make a move today, and the target chosen by the other party is most likely Bianliang, the Great Qi Imperial Court and the Great Qi Emperor in Tokyo.

"With such a strong force, it must be the Tianyuan Khan who made a move! You were right before, he is really the Heavenly and Human Realm! His target is really not a city or a place, a few Wang Extreme Realm cultivators, but my heart!"

Wei Wuxian also wanted to stabilize his state of mind, but the situation was so difficult and dangerous, the country was destroyed, and the society was sinking in the blink of an eye, but he couldn't do anything, how could he stabilize it if he wanted to?

However, he was in a hurry, he didn't lose his mind in the end, and he could see Zhao Ning's attitude and expression clearly.

Seeing that no matter what he said, Zhao Ning was in a posture of not moving, no matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like his eyebrows were burning, Wei Wuxian couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Why aren't you in a hurry?"

Zhao Ning's answer was very simple: "Great Qi will not die today. ”

Wei Wuxian was surprised and delighted: "What about Your Majesty and the imperial court?"

Zhao Ning's eyes were complicated: "There will be some minor troubles." ”

"What do you mean by a little trouble?"

"Troubles that aren't fatal are small troubles. ”

Wei Wuxian finally reacted and looked Zhao Ning up and down: "How can you be so sure?"

Zhao Ning said calmly: "Because that's the case. ”

Of course he was sure.

He had already experienced today's events. Although the situation is somewhat different, the essence has not changed - in his previous life, Tian Yuan Khan also directly killed Bianliang in Tokyo.

The other party is the realm of heaven and man, the strongest cultivator in the world, and he has the means to follow the law, since he wants to make a move in the national war, there is no reason not to strive for a one-for-one result.

If Motomu Zhen had killed the Great Qi Emperor on his own, inflicted heavy losses on the Great Qi court, and made the Great Qi army and people lose the will to resist, then his army would have been able to sweep away the leaves in the autumn wind and capture the land of Kyushu without having to pay huge casualties.

However, the Central Plains Dynasty is the Central Plains Dynasty after all, even if it is now too sick, in the end, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the legacy of the saints and sages is still there for thousands of years.

Zhao Ning knew very well that in the previous life, when the Great Qi did not even have a cultivator in the late stage of the Wang Extreme Realm, the reason why Yuan Muzhen had to wait until he achieved the Heavenly and Human Realm before launching a national war was that the other party also knew this.

Yuan Muzhen didn't know what kind of chips Daqi had to press the bottom of the box, but he at least understood that Daqi would definitely have this means to press the bottom of the box—even a lot of hidden and powerful means.

If you are not fully sure and start the war rashly, once the war is unfavorable, in the hands of this generation, the grassland will completely lose the possibility of entering the Central Plains.

The Central Plains is vast and rich, with 80 million households and millions of people in the grasslands.

Yuanmu Zhen was able to dispatch an army of nearly one million, relying on the Meng'an Mouke system in which the whole country was a soldier, and it was the national condition that every herdsman was a warrior as long as he rode a horse.

Yuan Muzhen went to Bianliang today and made a move against the Great Qi Imperial Court, which was a great joy for everyone, and as long as he was not hit hard if he failed, there was nothing to lose.

"In this way, what do we not have to worry about? The overall situation of the national war will not be fundamentally affected?"

Wei Wuxian asked for a long time, but he didn't ask from Zhao Ning's mouth, the latter was completely sure of the root cause, and in the end he could only choose to give up and care about the situation in the future, which was more important and urgent than that.

Contrary to Wei Wuxian's expectations, Zhao Ning shook his head: "It will have a great impact." ”

In the previous life, relying on the Yellow River moat, Daqi stabilized its position for a period of time, relying on the naval division and the defense system of the coastal fortress, which did not allow the Beihu army to cross the Yellow River easily.

But the previous life is the past life after all, and there is a difference from the current situation.

In the previous life, the national war broke out in the ninth year of Qianfu, and now it is the twelfth year of Qianfu.

It seems that there is only a difference of three years, but it is in these three years that the new army of regimental training envoys and defense envoys has appeared in Daqi; from the court to the prefecture and county, the officials of the Hanmen have already overwhelmed the officials of the family.

The most important thing is two aspects.

First, the successive appearance of the Magistrate's Yuan and the Cabinet caused the rule of the Great Qi officials to be dark, and the atmosphere of officialdom was basically rotten; second, the Zhao family not only did not fall into the middle of the family, but became even more powerful.

In the previous life, because of the change in Daizhou, the Zhao family suffered heavy casualties, Zhao Xuanji went crazy, which had a great impact, and the family was collectively angry, and to a certain extent, Song Zhi, who instructed Xu Minglang to create this scene, was worried that the family forces would jointly counterattack and slow down the process of suppressing the family.

Therefore, when the national war broke out in the previous life, the family was still the backbone, and the Yellow River defense line built by various families was not impregnable, but it was enough to make the Beihu army suffer a lot.

This life is different.

After Zhao Ning was reborn, he overthrew the Liu family, the Pang family and other families, and made the Xu family and several other families decline greatly.

In the eyes of the world, this is the internal dispute of the family, which shows that the family is rotten, which not only destroys the unity between the families, but also allows Song Zhi to basically realize the intention of dividing the generals and the family, and also gives him a reason to vigorously support the poor family.

In the process of breaking the Liu family, Pang clan and other clans, Zhao Ning borrowed the power of Song Zhi, objectively speaking, Song Zhi suppressed the centralization of the family, and also borrowed Zhao Ning's power.

Zhao Ning's goal was achieved, and Song Zhi's plan also made great strides.

Today, the power of the family is not as much as in the previous life, and those moths are gone, but the entire family group has been affected by this trend, and the momentum has been greatly reduced.

Therefore, Gao Furui, who did not appear in the previous life, was able to hold a high position in this life and guide the battle situation in Yunzhou.

The new army of the regimental training envoy and the defense envoy seemed to have strengthened the national strength of the Great Qi, but the result was that Xihe City was easily breached-this kind of thing did not appear in the previous life.

Zhao Ning's rebirth is like a butterfly with its wings.

Even though everything he did had to be done, it was all for the sake of Daqi not to be destroyed by Beihu, which was of great significance, but he could not control the temporary adverse effects of these things.

The gods can't control it.

"How much of an impact will it have?" Wei Wuxian asked.

Zhao Ning overlooked the direction of Bianliang City.

There was only a gloomy sky in his field of vision, and nothing else could be seen, but in his perception, two powerful forces had collided.

However, at this moment, the two forces have just collided, and it is far from the time to distinguish the winner and loser.

But Zhao Ning has already seen the results.

He saw a lot more.

He answered Wei Wuxian's question: "The Beihu army, which has assembled in Weizhou and is preparing to attack Yangliucheng, will cross the Yellow River and attack the Central Plains. ”

For Wei Wuxian, it was a thunderbolt of news, and he was stunned for a moment.

"Will Bianliang fall?" Wei Wuxian asked with difficulty.

Tokyo Bianliang is only a few dozen miles away from the Yellow River, it is the core of the wealth of the Central Plains people, and it is the heart of the defense line along the river in the Central Plains Theater.

Zhao Ning looked at Wei Wuxian: "Do you think I will let Bianliang fall?"

When he asked this, his tone was still normal, but a majestic confidence and arrogance made it feel like these words were coming out of the mouth of the Lord of the World, which made Wei Wuxian's heart flutter!

"You've got an arrangement?"

As soon as the words came out, Wei Wuxian himself first felt unbelievable, "What arrangements can you have?" You were still in Jindi the day before yesterday, and now you have just arrived in Yunzhou, and you have never done anything ...... in Bianliang."

Speaking of this, Wei Wuxian suddenly realized that something was wrong, and his eyes widened: "You...... You've traveled the world for a few years...... Did you have the arrangements at that time? This, this can't be!"

Zhao Ning did not answer this question.

Even if it was a brother, he couldn't answer.

If he answers this question, then a big question will come to the surface.

Now is not the right time.

Raising this question at this point will only make the relationship between brothers awkward.

Zhao Ning patted Wei Wuxian on the shoulder and sighed: "Toad, you only need to know one thing, if you want to win this national war, then no one can expect it, everything has to rely on us, and you can only rely on us."

"In this world, we are the mainstay of the world – it's not a choice, it's no choice. ”

After saying this, without waiting for Wei Wuxian, who seemed to understand whether he understood or not, to speak, Zhao Ning continued: "I want to go back to Jinyang, you can take care of it first." Don't worry, I won't be away for long, maybe I'll be back tomorrow. ”

As he spoke, Zhao Ning smiled, waved his long sleeves, turned around and flew into the sky.

Looking at Zhao Ning's distant back, the stunned Wei Wuxian gradually became thoughtful.

......

If he wanted to go to Bianliang, Zhao Ning should go southwest, but his trip was straight to the northwest. This shows that the battle situation between Yuanmu Zhen and Song Zhi, he didn't even plan to stop by to take a look.

He knows where his battlefield is.

I also know that it is a more important battlefield.

Different from the previous life, in this life, when the Northern Hu army attacked the Central Plains, it did not capture the Jin land, and the Zhao clan still firmly controlled the land of Hedong. For the overall situation of the national war, the existence of the Zhao family and Hedong is very important.

This is true for both Daqi and Beihu.

This time I was reborn, and there were many things that were no longer the same as in my previous life. Because of what Song Zhi has done over the years, Zhao Ning has recognized many things that he didn't have time to recognize in his previous life, and Song Zhi didn't have a chance to show them.

This is a good thing for Zhao Ning.

This made him realize that in the future, there must be a question that must be particularly crucial: if the national war is won, what will the internal situation of the dynasty be like.

What will happen to Song Zhi?

What will happen to the Maison?

What will happen to the Hanmen?

What about centralization?

What will happen to the imperial power?

What will happen to the historical currents?

What will happen to the Zhao family?

At the beginning of his rebirth, Zhao Ning had only one goal in life: to protect the Zhao family and win the national war.

Until now, this goal has not changed, but the position of the four words before and after may need to be changed.

Some things, Zhao Ning had to lay out.

Whether this is the original intention or not.

But as he said to Wei Wuxian, some problems are not choices, but no choices.
