Celestial Wind City, General's Mansion.

Nearly two months have passed since the battle of the wedding banquet.

The Ji family, who came to take over the military power by the emperor's order and occupied the general's mansion, had already all been evacuated, and the general's mansion naturally belonged to the Qin family in name only.

In the meeting hall of the General's Mansion, Qin Lie, who was busy handling military affairs, didn't have time to take a breath, and three more scout soldiers rushed over.

After Qin Lie rubbed his sore temples, he pointed at one of the scout soldiers and said, "You say it first." ”

In the wedding banquet battle, the Qin family won a great victory, which caused heavy losses to the Ji family, and the Qin family completely consolidated its position in the northern region.

After Qin Lie took over the position of the head of the Qin family and the general of Zhenbei, with the help of the Qin family's heritage and many resources, it only took half a month to completely control the overall situation.

The Cangyan royal family had already parked all the salaries of the Zhenbei Army, but it did not affect the Qin family's layout in the Zhenbei Army at all.

The power of 100,000 troops is firmly in the hands of the Qin family, and the current helmsmen of the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce, Qin Wanyue and Shang Junjie, rely on the background of the Qin family to expand wildly, and the branches are all over the Northern Regions, becoming the veritable first chamber of commerce in the Northern Regions.

The taxes of all the towns in the Northern Regions have also been requisitioned, and now the Northern Regions are equivalent to completely breaking away from the control of the Cangyan Imperial Family, and have a very special independent status.

Firmly control the military power, and have the financial support of the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce and the increased taxes, plus the support of many forces and families such as Mochizuki Valley and Lingyun Villa.

On the bright side, this is a very good sign of prosperity for the Qin family.

But in fact, the Qin family is still in danger, and if they are not careful, they will perish.

Without the support of the royal background of the Cangyan Kingdom, there were many bandits in the Northern Regions, and those rebels in the name of justice in the name of crusading against the Qin family were even more protruding like bamboo shoots after the spring rain.

These rebels and bandits are not much of a threat to the Qin family, which has stabilized its position.

Under Qin Lie's leadership, everything was handled in an orderly manner, and it did not cause much loss to the Qin family.

The most important thing is not the rebels who are rebels and rebels who are chaotic bandits and rebellions, but because after the royal family of Cangyan Kingdom lost control of the Northern Regions, they attracted the peeps of the two evil wolves of the Crazy Sword Alliance and the enemy Chu Yun Kingdom.

"Report to the general, within the jurisdiction of Iron and Stone City on the periphery of the Mangshan Mountain Range, traces of the Crazy Sword Alliance have been found again. ”

"And Qiushui Town, two hundred miles south of Iron and Stone City, was attacked by the Crazy Sword Alliance, and when General Qin Hu arrived with six hundred fierce tiger guards, the town had been burned down, and none of the more than 20,000 people in the town survived. ”

The scout who was pointed at by Qin Lie truthfully told the latest military information about the Crazy Sword Alliance.

"I see, you go down first. ”

Qin Lie sighed lightly, feeling very powerless, and after a moment of emotion, a belief quickly rose in his heart: "No matter how bad the current situation is, it is not as bad as when the Ji family came to snatch the military power some time ago. ”

"In that situation, the young general was able to turn the situation around by himself, and now the young general's whereabouts are unknown, I don't know whether he is dead or alive, the Qin family can only rely on me to support this burden, I can't live up to the young general's expectations of me, I must hold on." ”

Since Qin Lie took over the position of the head of the Qin family and the general of Zhenbei, he hadn't slept well for a day, and this incomparably heavy burden made him unable to even breathe.

But he can't just give up, he must hold on, he doesn't want the major general's previous efforts to be in vain, even if he can't bear this burden, he will go on hard.

Qin Lie knew that the current situation of the Qin family was from the hands of the eldest prince.

In that wedding banquet battle, Qin Yu did not choose to defect to the eldest prince, and also caused the Ji family to suffer heavy losses, which undoubtedly disrupted the chess game of the eldest prince.

In the past two months, the eldest prince did not use the means of the Cangyan royal family, and sent troops to forcibly crusade against the Ji family, and the eldest prince was afraid that the Ji family would really take refuge in the enemy Chuyun country.

Although he acquiesced in the fact that the Qin family was independent in the Northern Regions, the eldest prince resorted to the means of driving away the wolf.

The three major families of Zhennan, Zhenxi, and Zhendong were ordered to take refuge in the eldest prince with military power, and suppressed the bandits across the country with all their might, encircling them but not suppressing them, and forcing them to enter the northern border.

The eldest prince even deliberately let people say that the Cangyan royal family has now lost control of the Northern Regions, as long as these bandits enter the Northern Regions to make trouble, then the Cangyan Royal Family will not be able to control it.

As a result, a large number of bandits were attracted, causing rebels to revolt in the Northern Regions, and the evil wolf of the Crazy Knife Alliance was introduced into the Northern Regions.

As for Chu Yunguo's sudden dispatch of troops to the Northern Regions, this was completely out of the expectation of the Great Prince.

However, it also helped the eldest prince, and such a situation only has benefits and no harm for the eldest prince.

With the strength of the Qin family in the north of the town, it will definitely be able to hold the northern region and quell the bandits and rebels in the region.

However, if it continues to be consumed like this for a long time, the Qin family's financial resources and military strength will gradually be depleted.

All the Great Prince needs to do is to keep a close eye on the movements in the Northern Regions.

Once the dormant tiger of the Qin family was almost eaten away by the two evil wolves, the eldest prince would order Zhennan, Zhenxi, and Zhendong to send troops to forcibly control the northern region with lightning speed.

Since the Qin family does not know how to lift and cannot be used by the eldest prince, then the eldest prince can only let it perish like this.

In doing so, the price paid by the Great Prince, at most, was for Chu Yun Kingdom to devour several cities in the Northern Regions, which did not have much impact on the foundation of Cangyan Kingdom.

The current situation faced by the Qin family is very dangerous, and it can almost be said to be a minefield step by step.

Qin Lie didn't know how long it could last, he only knew that no matter what, he would do his best to hold on, hoping that the situation would always improve.

"There's any bad news, you two tell it together. ”

After adjusting his mentality, Qin Yu looked at the other two scout soldiers and said.

"General Yu, the Yanbei Fortress has been lost, our general Han Wu was killed by the enemy, with more than 3,000 casualties, the commander of the Yanbei Fortress has retreated to Beijiang City with the remaining soldiers and horses, and the current situation is unknown. ”

"General Yu, Lou Fengyu, a strong man in the Eastern Regions, led more than 600 disciples of Fengyulou to take refuge, and has now arrived in Tianfeng City, waiting for the general's arrangement. ”

These two pieces of news, one good and one bad.

The loss of the Yanbei Fortress had long been expected by Qin Lie, and he had already made a comprehensive deployment, taking retreat as advance and defending instead of attacking.

Lou Fengyu led the disciples of Fengyulou to vote, and this news was simply good news for Qin Lie.

This was also the only good news he had ever heard in the past few days, and it immediately made Qin Lie stand up excitedly: "Order, let Qin Wanyue immediately handle Fengyu Lou and other related matters, and do my best to meet all the requirements of Fengyu Lou." ”

To meet the requirements of the Wind and Rain Building, it is nothing more than to cut out a piece of land in Tianfeng City and send it out as the foundation land of the sect of the Wind and Rain Building, and then give a certain amount of human and financial support.

Fengyu Lou is the strongest sect force in the eastern region of Cangyan Country, and Lou Fengyu, the owner of Fengyu Building, participated in the battle of the wedding banquet at the beginning.

Now that the situation of the Qin family is unfavorable, the entire sect of Fengyulou has moved and come to join the Qin family.

It seems that the book "Xiaofeng Falling Rain Sword" that Qin Yu gave away at the beginning was not given in vain.

Perhaps the news of Lou Fengyu's participation in the wedding banquet was leaked out, so that Fengyulou was suppressed by the Zhendong Wang family in the Eastern Regions, and had to come to the Northern Regions to defect to the Qin family.

In short, the arrival of Lou Fengyu made Qin Lie very happy......
