Chapter 163: Undercurrents are surging

Like the Thousand Song Dynasty, Tianhe has only been founded for more than 200 years, and its national strength is not strong. "Ke * Le * Words * Love * First * Fa ()". vodtw.co this address is 7777772e626971692e6d65

It's just that unlike Qiansong, the territory where Tianhe is located originally did not belong to any of the three of Qingchuan, Southern Qi, and Yueguo. It is located near the Qushan Grand Canyon, where there are often monsters, and there are also large mountains and rivers in Tianhe, and the terrain is complex and inconvenient to use troops, so it has always been a disputed area.

Trying to occupy this place will inevitably lead to a joint confrontation with the other two countries, and it is not of much value, so there has been no clear belonging.

Two hundred years ago, the major tribes that had lived in the mountains and rivers of this place for generations united and established a state in Linjia City, and the Tianhe Kingdom was established since then.

As for the name of the Tianhe, it comes from the rolling Lanjiang River, which also flows here, and in the eyes of the locals, this river that is not tens of thousands of miles long is the Tianhe River flowing down from the sky.

Therefore, they finally named the country Tianhe, but in fact the part of the Lanjiang River that flows through the country of Tianhe is only a few thousand li, on the contrary, the length of the river flowing through the country of Yue and Qingchuan is thirty or forty thousand miles.

Although the Tianhe people who have lived in the mountains for generations, most of them can be regarded as natural hunters. Tianhe's soldiers are often more brave and skilled than other nations, but due to their population and resources, and the fact that they are surrounded by large powers, they simply cannot make it to the climate.

Their territory was the same as that of the Thousand Song Dynasty, which was tens of thousands of miles away, and it was only one-tenth the size of the Moon Kingdom. And because the terrain of mountains and rivers is inconvenient for farming, their population is only 10 million.

If there are fewer people than other countries, the fewer cultivators they will appear, and the lower the possibility of intermediate and high-level cultivators appearing among them, which is very easy to understand.

Therefore, Tianhe has always survived in the cracks of the Three Kingdoms. Unlike the Thousand Song Dynasty, which has been constantly fighting against the grassland country since the founding of the country, Tianhe has not had a war with neighboring countries in the two hundred years since its founding.

Occasionally, there are small-scale border frictions, and it is generally the Tianhe Kingdom that takes the initiative to calm things down.

Therefore, Miao Xuan was right, if Yue Luoning died in Tianhe, it was really possible for Yue Shan to send troops here to vent his anger regardless of a single qiē.

He Rong hesitated: "Although Tianhe is weak, it is not easy to attack, and after it is defeated, it will be even more difficult to occupy here."

He is right, maybe it is not difficult for the Moon Kingdom to conquer Tianhe, but after the defeat, how to completely occupy and govern this place is definitely a big problem

Once the Tianhe people retreat into the mountains and forests, the Moon Team will have no way to pursue, and when the time comes, facing the Tianhe people who are good at jungle warfare and constantly harass themselves, the casualties of the Moon Army will probably be an extremely terrifying number.

What's more, this is a barren land at all, and there is no value in occupying it at all, and the price of attacking here is completely worth the loss.

It is precisely because of this understanding that for two hundred years, the Three Kingdoms of Yueguo, Qingchuan, and Southern Qi have acquiesced to the existence of the Tianhe Kingdom, and have not raised troops against it.

Miao Xuan said calmly: "We don't know about Yueshan, and no one knows what he will think. But even in order to make an angry and tough gesture to others, in order to deter the various forces that were ready to move after Yue Luoning's death, he had to send troops. Otherwise, it will only be seen as weakness. ”

"But"

"But it's not good to occupy Yueshan here, and he doesn't need to occupy Tianhe, all he wants is to send a large army to take down here and cause great damage to Tianhe. Maybe after the Moon Army withdrew, Tianhe would be able to continue to rule here, but the blow would definitely be heavy. ”

Although everyone present nodded one after another, Miao Xuan's inference was completely reasonable.

He Rong asked hesitantly, "Then you mean that Tianhe will try his best to prevent us from killing Yue Luoning."

"This is not necessarily, it depends on how the king of Tianhe decides, maybe he will make a gesture to help Yue Luoning, but secretly the two don't want to help. ”

"I understand, I'll send someone to report to Your Majesty and ask him to send a master. ”

Miao Xuan agreed: "That's right, if you don't kill Yue Luoning at the beginning, then it won't be easy to kill later." After the Yueguo side gets the news, they will definitely send a master to rescue him, if the strength of our side is not enough, then we will not be able to do anything at that time."

"Without further ado, I'll arrange it" He Rong stood up.

"I hope I can solve Yue Luoning as soon as possible," Miao Xuan muttered to himself.

At the same time, the Southern Qi Outer Pavilion, Tianhe Palace, and the discussion on how to deal with Yue Luoning's abduction are also in full swing.

It is foreseeable that when Lin Si and the five of them walk out of the Qushan Grand Canyon, the scene that greets them will be very grand.

All parties are in full swing in advance for this matter.

So, what about Yue Luoning's compatriots, the people of the Moon Country

The Moon Foreign Pavilion, which was supposed to be busy working together to rescue His Royal Highness the Prince, was extremely noisy at this time.

Yes, just noisy

"His Royal Highness the Prince is in deep danger, what we need to do now is to rescue him immediately and report back to my country, I don't understand why you are still arguing here, it will be too late to drag it on," a middle-aged envoy shouted hoarsely.

But soon someone refuted him: "However, who knows if this news is true or false, if it is false, then we will report it for the crime of defrauding the king."

The conference room immediately echoed the voice: "Yes, yes, the crime of bullying the king is to be killed." ”

However, after all, there were still people who understood the situation, and a young secret agent said in a deep voice: "Whether this news is true or not, we can't sit idly by, after all, the matter is serious."

"But,The news says,His Royal Highness the Prince was kidnapped by two teenagers all the way from the city of the school garden,Don't you think it's too ridiculous and traveled thousands of miles all the way to Tianhe,The most ridiculous thing is that they also entered the Qushan Grand Canyon"

"Yes, even if the news is true, I don't really believe that they can walk out of the Qushan Canyon and come to Tianhe, even if we know, what can we do?"

The middle-aged envoy who was the first to speak out angrily slapped the table in front of him and angrily reprimanded: "What are your intentions for rescuing His Royal Highness the Prince?"

"We're just taking it seriously"

It can only be said that the forces of the Moon Kingdom located in Tianhe have long been infiltrated by the nearby Northeast Military Region and Prince Liangyue.

This meeting on the rescue of His Royal Highness the Prince has been shifted from how to save it to whether it should be saved.

If He Rong of Qingchuan saw this scene in front of him, he would definitely laugh out loud. Obviously it was Yue Luoning's only reliance in Tianhe, and it was obviously the Yueguo Pavilion that was the first to get the news, and when Qingchuan and Southern Qi had already been arranged around, these people were still arguing about whether to rescue or not.

Feng Qinghua looked at the scene of the constant quarrel in front of him expressionlessly, and didn't say a word.

He was the ambassador of the Lunar Embassy, the highest-ranking person in the room, and his sentence was more useful than the ten sentences of the people below, but he had not spoken a word since his brief opening remarks at the beginning of the meeting.

It wasn't until the middle-aged envoy slapped the table angrily that he reprimanded with an unhappy face: "Under Ji Ping's court, what kind of system have you become like this?"

Ji Ping said excitedly: "However, His Royal Highness the Ambassador Prince has to be saved."

Feng Qinghua rubbed his forehead and seemed to have a headache: "I know, I know, but this needs everyone to discuss a solution, and arguing can't solve the problem." ”

"Save, it must be saved" A calm and unquestionable voice sounded beside Feng Qinghua.

The person who spoke out was Ren Xi, the secret agent leader of the Moon Kingdom in Tianhe, and his status here was similar to that of Miao Xuan on the Qingchuan side.

As soon as he spoke, the people below immediately stopped talking and waited for his next step.

"Whether His Royal Highness the Prince is in danger or not, it must be saved, and it must be reported, if His Royal Highness the Prince is really killed, you should be able to think of what the consequences are, and then we will be the sinners of the Moon Country"

As soon as his words came out, everyone present nodded slightly, even the person who was placed here by Prince Liangyue didn't dare to question it in person. Ren Xi's style is well known to many of them, and once they oppose it at this time, they are afraid that they will immediately be regarded as traitors.

Feng Qinghua changed his previous indifference, and echoed loudly: "Yes, it must be saved, and it must be fast, I don't know what the leader of Ren has to say, everyone in my outer pavilion obeys the dispatch."

"Very good" Ren Xiruo glanced at him meaningfully, and then began to arrange the task.

"The main task of the people in the outer pavilion is to find out the news on the bright side, especially the response of Tianhe to this matter, and all the clues that Tianhe can find in the middle of the court must be reported meticulously."

Feng Qinghua patted his chest and said, "No problem"

"In terms of my secret agents, some of them are sent to the outside of the Qushan Grand Canyon to be on standby to receive His Royal Highness the Prince at any time, and some of them are here to closely monitor the movements of Qingchuan and Nanqi, and I will go back to arrange the specific matters later."

"In the end, Ji Ping, you take someone back to China as soon as possible to report that we need support for this matter, even if you are lucky enough to save His Royal Highness the Prince, it will still be extremely difficult to leave Tianhe and return to the Moon Kingdom."

"Yes," Ji Ping shouted.

"That's it, Envoy Feng, do you have anything else to add?"

"No, Leader Ren's plan is very thoughtful"

Ren Xi stood up and interrupted him: "That's it, end the meeting, let's go and prepare"

With that, he was the first to leave here without looking back.

After Ren Xi left, Feng Qinghua coughed twice and said, "Ji Ping, you go and prepare quickly, the others have heard it just now, and they have to cheer up recently." ”

He paused, arched his hand high towards the Moon Kingdom in the south, and said, "For the Moon Country, everyone, work hard"

Everyone agreed, and for a while, it seemed that they were united.

After everyone dispersed, Feng Qinghua came to the side hall, opened a secret door, and a person appeared in the dark room in front of him.

Seeing this person, Feng Qinghua bowed down and said respectfully: "My lord, this is the way things are, I don't know if the prince has any arrangements that I need to do."

This person said lightly: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask." ”

"Yes, yes, yes"

"You should know about Ren Xi and the strongholds of those secret agents."

Feng Qinghua was shocked and lost his voice: "My lord"

He could tell what this person meant, he planned to destroy Ren Xi and all the secret agents of the Moon Kingdom

However, can you use it so ruthlessly, after all, it is a person from the Moon Country

This person said coldly: "I said, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't think about what you shouldn't think, just do your thing." ”

"Yes"

That night, Ji Ping and the others, who galloped in the direction of the Moon Kingdom after leaving the city, were killed in a wilderness ten miles outside the city.

That night, a fire broke out in a large mansion in the southwest of Linjia City, and hundreds of people were burned to death, and none of them survived.

Although Tianhe's official investigators of the case found that some of the unburned corpses seemed to have sword wounds, they did not make a statement.

The next day, the Yueguo Embassy issued a strong protest against Qingchuan and Nanqi, as well as the Tianhe Three Kingdoms, protesting that they had burned hundreds of civilians in the Yueguo Kingdom
