Chapter 154: Ye Xiang Buddha Goes Out of the Mountain
"What are you doing? Do you know whose convoy this is?"
"You Jingguo are so bold, dare to intercept and detain our Liu family's convoy, do you want to be destroyed?"
"Let's join forces, kill out, and see if they really dare to do anything to us?"
"Who's your commander, let him come out to me!"
In the middle of Jingguo, an official road east of Yucheng, hundreds of carriages were intercepted by an army, this army is not large, only 3,000 people, but all the swords and armor are on the body, murderous, it seems to be an elite division.
Yucheng is the only way to go south, Yucheng is still in the middle of Jingguo, not too far from Jingcheng. It was naturally Li Yunyi's idea that the army would not intercept in the north, but in the center. Put these convoys in first, so that they can't go, and then intercept and collect taxes.
The chief officer of this army is Xiong Jun, he rode a high-headed horse, carried the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Knife and walked over slowly, looked condescendingly at the people gathered in front of the carriage, and said in a deep voice: "What are you muttering about? I will give you two options, either we will detain you and report to the Southern Chu Imperial Court, or you will pay the money and leave in a low-key manner, we will not see it." ”
"Who are you?"
A middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe walked over with his hands behind his back and said, "Here is the big housekeeper of the Liu family, our Liu family knows, right?
"Huh!"
Xiong Jun touched the big bald head, and said with a big grin: "This will be Xiong Jun, the general of the Jingguo Huya Army, I don't care how many princes you have, this general only listens to orders, this general is a rough person, if you want to do it, then even if you do it, this general is too lazy to talk to you, see the real chapter in your hand." ”
"Steward Liu!"
A young man in a luxurious carriage walked out, and said with a gloomy face: "What are you doing with him talking so much nonsense? Kill him directly, this son sees if Jingguo's army dares to do anything to us? ”
Steward Liu's eyes flickered for a moment, and his body suddenly rose into the air and flew towards Xiong Jun. This housekeeper is very fast, and he is obviously a master of the nine grades. As the great butler of the Liu family, he is also a figure with a head and face in Chujing, and a general of a third-class vassal state dares to do this to him, which makes him angry, thinking about taking Xiong Jun first.
"Huh!"
Seeing Steward Liu flying over, Xiong Jun sneered a few times, and sat on the war horse without moving. After Steward Liu approached, the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Knife he was carrying suddenly picked up and swept heavily at Steward Liu.
"Wipe ......"
Xiong Jun's reputation is not obvious, and the sense aura is not strong, originally Steward Liu thought that he was just an ordinary general, who knew that Xiong Jun's sword speed was so fast? It was too late for him to dodge, so he could only instantly pull out the sword on his waist and block it against the sword.
"Bang!"
Without any accidents, Xiong Jun's violent power split the sword in Steward Liu's hand, and the speed of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Knife continued to slash, but Steward Liu couldn't dodge it, and was slashed on the head by a knife.
How sharp is the Great Xia Dragon Bird Knife? Xiong Jun's strength is so great that Steward Liu was directly cut into two pieces by a single knife, and a blood mist flew up, and Steward Liu was split into two, and the corpse flew to both sides, smashing heavily to the ground.
"Hiss~"
The audience gasped a few times, looking at the corpse on the ground that had turned into two petals in disbelief. That's a master of the nine grades, and he was killed with one move? Could it be that this huge ugly bald head is a grandmaster? I haven't heard of this person.
Xiong Jun took out a black cloth from his arms, wiped the blood on the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Knife, glanced ahead, and said slowly, "Who else?" If not, cooperate early, it will be dark soon, and General Ben will go back for dinner. ”
The audience was silent, Xiong Jun was impatient, and waved his big hand: "Since you are unwilling to cooperate, then all the carriages will be taken away, and if anyone resists, you will be killed!"
"Whoa!"
Three thousand troops dismounted, carrying swords and slowly approaching, these troops were the Shaking Mountain Battalion but did not have shields. After such a long period of training, this army is now very strong in combat power, and it is also very strong in terms of discipline, and Xiong Jun's order does not dare them to hesitate.
"Wait!"
A majestic voice came from inside a carriage, and then a middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe walked out, he looked at Xiong Jun from the air and said, "General Xiong, we are willing to cooperate and pay taxes according to the three transactions." ”
"Uncle Six!"
The young man in the robe who spoke before was anxious and wanted to say something again, but the middle-aged man in the robe waved his hand and said, "Shut up, I'm in charge here!"
The principal of the Liu family is willing to cooperate, and the next thing will be easy to do. Xiong Jun sent several school officials to count the gold and silver treasures in the carriage, gave a rough estimate, and finally with the cooperation of the Liu family, he left ten carriages of gold and silver treasures as taxes.
"That's it!"
Xiong Jun nodded with satisfaction, a token in his hand flew out, and threw it to the middle-aged man in the gorgeous robe, he said with a smile: "This is the token of this general, holding this token Jingguo can be unimpeded, Lord Liu, I wish you a smooth journey." ”
The middle-aged man in the robe smiled and arched his hand: "General Xiong, there will be a period later!"
"Let's go!"
Xiong Jun took ten carriages and drove them to the city, and after handing them over to the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Xiong Jun waved his hand and said, "Brothers, go to the east, there is still a convoy over there, let's go!"
Xiong Jun marched out of the city with an army of 3,000 and continued the next wave of harvesting.
The officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who were in charge of counting the gold and silver treasures, carried boxes of gold and silver treasures inside, and then began to count them.
While counting them, they were all secretly speechless, this time they were too ruthless, and the Liu family left at least hundreds of millions of taels of silver treasures. Jing Guo tore off a big piece of meat from these big families, are you sure it's okay?
Ten days!
Li Yunyi asked the Huya Army to dispatch 10,000 troops, and intercepted them in several ways at the same time, and in just ten days, Heilongtai reported that one billion taels of silver had been collected. This is not a small amount, and there are only so many taxes in Jingguo a year, which is still a part, and it is estimated that there will be another billion and 800 million in the future.
Wu Jian was a little panicked!
Li Yunyi broke ground on Tai Sui's head, those big families have accumulated wealth for so many years, and they were bitten by Li Yunyi like this, and they also used swords and soldiers many times, killing a lot of people, this is a feud with most of the big families in the entire Southern Chu.
Li Yunyi didn't think so, and let Xiong Jun and them continue to do it, it's not a big deal. He has always done things like this, as long as he decides, he will not think about it so much, and he will do it first.
In ten days, the situation in Nanchu deteriorated further.
Three counties in the southeast have already fallen, and the prefectures and counties of Southern Chu are not the same as those of Jingguo, and one prefecture and county there can be one-third of the territory of Jingguo. In other words, the territory of Southern Chu has lost one Jingguo, plus the fall of Tengguo, the land area of Tengguo is twice that of Jingguo, that is to say, Southern Chu has lost three Jingguo.
The most important thing is that Nanchu has been defeated again and again, and the morale of the army is extremely low, and Ram Qiu and Sima Yue both want to win a battle and reinvigorate their morale. It's a pity that several counteroffences have not taken advantage, the morale of Dongqi is booming, the sergeants are not afraid of death, plus the intelligence of Dongqi is much stronger than that of Nanchu, Nanchu's every move feels under the supervision of Dongqi, Sima Yue and Ram Qiu can't win even if they are gods.
The court is noisy every day, and the bear has been obviously haggard a lot lately, and his white hair has come out a lot. However, it may also be because he has been taking the Pill of Bliss every day recently, and he indulges in lust every day, and the foundation of the grandmaster can't bear it.
The fighting on the North Vietnamese side was in a stalemate, and several cities were captured in the first few days of the Great Zhou, but each city was breached at a huge cost. The North Vietnamese side is under the leadership of their female god of war, and every inch of land will be contested, and if the Great Zhou wants to break through any city, it will need to pay several times the price.
After five days again, the Eastern Qi army gathered all the way to the west, and the army of Ram Qiu had a hard encounter, the battle lasted for a day and a night, the Eastern Qi army suffered more than 50,000 casualties, and the Southern Chu side suffered more than 80,000 casualties, and the Ram Qiu army was defeated. The Eastern Qi army drove straight in, and in two days, five cities were conquered.
Defeat is like a mountain!
After the news spread, countless courtiers and big families in Southern Chu were desperate, and the military department Shangshu and Yushi Dafu knelt outside the Mixiong Palace with a group of ministers, and jointly asked Mixiong to invite Ye Xiangfo out of the mountain.
Mi Xiong stayed in the room for three hours, and finally walked out, promised the ministers, and took a few officials to drive the Ye Mansion!
The king drove to the outside of the Guogong Mansion, and Ye Xiangfo's eldest son came to greet him with the people of the Ye family, but Ye Xiangfo did not come out, and the shelf almost made the bear leave with his sleeves brushed away. Mi Xiong held back his anger and entered Ye Mansion, and finally entered Ye Xiangfo's room.
Ye Xiangfo did not lie on the bed, but stood by a wall with a huge map of Eastern Shenzhou. After he waited for the bear to come in, he turned to look at the bear, there was no cloudiness in his eyes, and he didn't salute the bear, so he looked at the bear calmly.
Mi Xiong was a little flustered in his heart, his eyes wandered, he waited for a while, gritted his teeth and looked up at Ye Xiangfo, and said a word: "Ye Qing, I know that you hate me, but for the sake of the hundreds of years of foundation of Southern Chu, for the sake of thousands of people in Southern Chu, for... Qingyu, please help me, and also help the thousands of people in Nanchu. ”
"Your Majesty is serious!"
Ye Xiangfo spoke, his tone was lukewarm, he glanced at Mi Xiong a few times again, and said: "As long as Your Majesty agrees to the three conditions of the old minister, the old minister can go out of the mountain!"
Mi Xiong's face showed joy, and he hurriedly said: "Ye Qing, please say, don't say three, even if it is ten!"
"First!"
Ye Xiangfo said calmly: "The old minister wants the right to transfer all the troops and horses of Southern Chu and the major vassal states, before the end of the war, all the orders of the old minister, Your Majesty must not interfere, and any generals and major vassal states of Southern Chu must listen to the old minister alone." ”
"This ......"
Mi Xiong frowned slightly, Ye Xiangfo This is a lion's big mouth, if this right is given to Ye Xiangfo, Ye Xiangfo will be half the emperor of Southern Chu, he can do whatever he wants. Even if he sends someone to kill the bear, he can ascend the throne as the emperor.
Ye Xiangfo didn't speak, quietly waiting for the bear's decision, the bear's eyes flickered for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "I'm ready!"
