readx;? Chapter 1069 Master

The signing of the new contract between the two countries was completed, and it was announced to the world, which naturally reached Shangguan Xiu's ears. After reading the contents of the peace treaty www.biquge.info, Shangguan Xiu said two words - weak.

The biggest difference between Tang Ling and Tang Yu is that the former is not afraid of war and is an emperor immediately, while the latter is afraid of war and is an emperor who guards his business. Therefore, Tang Ling was able to accept Shangguan Xiu's diplomatic concept of ending the war with war, but Tang Yu couldn't.

Tang Yu was worried that the Feng Kingdom would be mired in the Northern War for many years because of the relationship between the Northern Counties, and he wanted to ask if his concerns were justified and reasonable, but the premise was that the Bessa Kingdom would always exist.

And in Shangguan Xiu's diplomatic strategy, he didn't plan to fight a protracted war with Besa at all, his goal was to destroy the entire Besa country, if the Besa country no longer exists, then, who would come to ask the Wind Country for Beijun?

Tang Yu wanted to keep his business, and Shangguan Xiu and Tang Ling wanted to expand their territory and permanently eliminate the northern threat of their country. Different philosophies naturally lead to completely different national policies.

At present, Tang Yu has been proclaimed emperor in Shangjing, and the Tang Yu court controls the four eastern counties of the Feng Country, from north to south, respectively, Feng County, Mo County, An County, and Sichuan County.

The Tang Ling court, which retreated to Zhen County, controlled the four counties in the western part of the Wind Country, which were Ning County, Yu County, Huan County, and Zhen County from north to south, plus a northern county in the Great North.

As for the Divine Pool, it was originally not within the jurisdiction of the Wind Country Imperial Court, whether it was the Tang Ling Imperial Court or the Tang Yu Imperial Court, they couldn't control the head of the Divine Pool.

Relatively speaking, the four eastern counties of the Wind Country are far more developed than the four western counties, and they are much richer, the Wind County is the origin of the Wind Country, a dominant family, despising the counties, Mo County is the main production area of the Wind Country's war horses, Anjun is the economic center of the Wind Country, and Sichuan County is the agricultural and industrial center of the Wind Country.

It's just that Tang Yu has just become the emperor, and the foundation is not deep, and the power of the Wind Country is still in the hands of the nobles, and the nobles everywhere control a large area of land and manpower, and the new laws implemented by Tang Yu are not supported by the nobles.

In addition, the treasury of the Tang Yu court was empty, and the treasury of Shangjing that they took over was completely empty, and the occupied imperial town was also an empty city where people went to the building, and the eastern nobles and merchants also took away huge wealth when they fled to the west.

Without silver, in terms of weapons and equipment, the Besa country can still provide some of it free of charge, but it is too difficult to recruit troops and buy Marco. Therefore, although Tang Yu controlled the four traditional strong counties of the Wind Country, the troops under his command were very limited.

In contrast, the Tang Ling court has a large number of generals, and the central army that controls all the wind country undoubtedly occupies an absolute advantage in terms of military strength. It's just that the Central Army in Tang Ling's hands is on the battlefield in Ningnan, and he can't withdraw if he wants to withdraw in a short time.

Once the Central Army is forcibly withdrawn from the battlefield of the National War, it will not be able to maintain sufficient strength to suppress Ningnan, not only will it be pursued by the Ningnan Army with victory, but next, the Tang Ling Imperial Court will also face the situation of being attacked from both sides by Ningnan in the west and Tang Yu in the east.

Now, the situation in the Windy Country is in this delicate stalemate.

Tang Yu did not have enough troops in his hands, and he was unable to continue to advance westward, which was not enough to eliminate Tang Ling's court in one go, and a large number of central armies controlled by Tang Ling were all in the battlefield of the national war, and they could not be drawn out, nor could they advance to the east to counterattack.

Half a month later, Shangguan Xiu and his entourage, who entered Huan County, finally passed through Huan County and entered Zhen County, and after another ten days, the team arrived in Xijing.

As the leader of the steam age and the firearms age, Xijing has long since become the largest town in the western part of the Wind Country.

Especially after the rebellion, a large number of officials, nobles, and wealthy merchants fled to Xijing for refuge, and even the emperor and the imperial court moved here.

Fortunately, there is a palace in Xijing, and when Tang Ling arrives here, he doesn't have to live in the palace, and he doesn't need to build another palace.

On the second day after Tang Yu became emperor, Tang Ling promulgated a document in Xijing to rebellious the people, telling the people of the ten counties of Fengguo to be loyal to the imperial court and work together to resist the tyranny of the rebels.

When Shangguan Xiu and the others arrived in Xijing, they didn't even see the city walls of Xijing. A large number of officials and wealthy businessmen lived in Xijing and spent a lot of money to buy real estate in Xijing, so that a large number of people in the city were squeezed out of the city and could only settle outside the city.

When people build houses outside the city, they naturally need earth and stones, but where can they get so much earth and stones in a short period of time?

Forsythia, the county guard of Zhenjun, made a decision immediately, and gave an order, asking the people to dig up the city wall stones themselves, take as much as they could, and use the city wall stones to build houses. It was only ten days of work, and the huge Xijing, if the long Xijing city wall, was demolished by the people. This incident also made Tang Ling a lot of fire, the city wall of Xijing, you say that it will be demolished, and the courage is too great, once the rebels attack, what will Xijing do to resist the rebels.

Tang Ling summoned Forsythia to the palace overnight, and asked him straight to the point, did he want to surrender to the rebels?

Forsythia is not Shangguan Xiu's person, but was sent by Tang Ling to Zhenjun to be the county guard, and Tang Ling was disappointed in his current actions.

In front of Tang Ling, Forsythia patted his chest and assured that the rebels could not beat Xijing, if the rebels were really allowed to hit Xijing, it could only mean that they had been beaten by the rebels and had no power to fight back, in this case, it made no difference whether Xijing had a city wall or not.

In addition, the expansion of Xijing has long been a plan formulated by the Zhenjun County Government, even if there is no rebel rebellion, there are not so many people pouring into Xijing, he also plans to demolish the city wall, the expansion of the city, now it is just the opportunity to take advantage of the needs of the people, let the people to demolish the city wall, not only can leave a labor cost to demolish the wall, but also will let the people be grateful to His Majesty, killing two birds with one stone.

Forsythia is not only a person with strong political ability, but also excellent eloquence, and the dead can be said to be alive, Tang Ling's original anger in his stomach gradually came to naught under Forsythia's eloquent talk. Forsythia connived at the people to tear down the walls and build houses, and that's it.

After Shangguan Xiu and others arrived in Xijing, they only saw that construction was being carried out inside and outside the city, but they did not see the city wall of Xijing, and this is the reason.

Upon hearing the news of Shangguanxiu's arrival, the ministers of the court and the central government all went out of the city to greet them.

Forsythia, who is the county guard of Zhenjun, is even more busy and prepares a grand welcoming ceremony. He also deliberately found Gaidang and Ziyin and asked them to select the elite from the gendarmerie as the honor guard to take over.

For this matter, of course, he and Ziyin will not be ambiguous, the two sent out all the gendarmerie, there are still ten miles away from Xijing, and the two sides of the official road are full of gendarmerie soldiers, five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, and the guard is heavy.

Forsythia and Caidang and Ziyin Yingying were the farthest, and they were still more than ten miles away from Xijing, and Shangguan Xiu saw them waiting on the official road.

When everyone approached, Shangguan Xiu stepped out of the carriage. Forsythia took the lead in kneeling on the ground, kowtowing forward, and bowing to the monarch and ministers.

Gu Qingling and Qian Jin, who were sitting in the carriage, lifted the curtain slightly and looked out.

Even though it is still more than ten miles away from Xijing, both sides of the official road are full of onlookers, and the crowds are surging, and the black pressure is overwhelming. At the moment when Shangguan Xiu appeared, there were overwhelming cheers on both sides of the official road.

"Your Highness!" "It's really Your Highness!" "Your Highness has finally returned to her virginity—"

For a while, the crowd on both sides of the official road knelt on the ground together, shouting endlessly, "The villain greets His Highness!" "Your Highness works hard, Your Highness take care!"

As far as the eye can see, the crowd of people kneeling on both sides of the road stretches beyond the horizon at a glance.

In the past, Gu Qingling only heard that Shangguan Xiu's prestige in Zhenjun was extremely high, but to what extent, she didn't know, and now she finally understood what it meant to be highly respected, and what it meant to be called for a hundred calls and thousands of calls, I am afraid that the emperor's prestige in Zhenjun is far inferior to Ah Xiu.

Shangguan Xiu jumped out of the carriage lightly, and walked to Forsythia, Caidang, and Ziyin, he first stretched out his hand and pulled Caidang and Ziyin up, and said with a smile: "I already know the battle between the two of you in Huan County, and the battle is good!"

Caidang and Ziyin's faces showed excitement and excitement. The two of them were commended by His Majesty, and what they won was only honor, to put it bluntly, it was all a virtual thing, and when they were appreciated by Shangguan Xiu, what they won was real power and status.

The two of them were in a happy mood, and said in unison: "Your Highness has praised falsely, in this battle, your subordinates have contributed very little, and they all rely on the blessings of Your Highness!"

Shangguan Xiu looked up and smiled, his eyes turned to Forsythia, and asked, "......Who is this?"

Don't look at Forsythia as the county guard of Zhenjun, but Shangguan Xiu really hasn't seen him. Shangguan Xiu didn't care who was the county guard of Zhenjun, when he transferred Liu Yun out of Zhenjun, he was 100% sure that he could firmly control everything in Zhenjun, and whoever was the county guard was the same, and it had no effect on him.

There is no need to be introduced by He Ziyin, Forsythia immediately answered: "Weichen Zhenjun guards Forsythia, see Your Highness!"

"It turned out to be Lord Lian, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be! His Highness tortured the ministers!"

"Get up!" "Your Highness!" Forsythia cautiously stood up.

As soon as he got up, Shangguan Xiu said with a smile: "I heard that Lord Lian demolished the wall of Xijing, you know, the wall of Xijing City was still reinforced brick by brick with my brothers in the army, and Lord Lian said that it would be demolished, and the courage is commendable!"

Shangguan Xiu's words were said lightly, and he didn't seem to blame Forsythia, but when he and Ziyin invariably raised their hands to hold the hilt of their swords, their eyes when they looked at Forsythia also became sharp.

A mere county guard is nothing in the eyes of the gendarmerie, as long as Shangguan Xiu gives an order, both of them can draw their swords without hesitation and stab him to death on the spot.

Forsythia dared to boast in front of Tang Ling, but in front of Shangguan Xiu, he was simply walking on thin ice, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

Hearing his words, he shuddered with fright, and the body that had just stood up immediately knelt back on the ground, kowtowed again and again, and said in a trembling voice: "Weichen deserves death, please forgive your highness." ”

Ziyin rolled his eyes and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, even the Lord has informed the two gentlemen Yuan Mu and Qin Chuan about this matter, and he ordered this after getting the approval of the two gentlemen. ”

"I see!" Shangguan Xiu smiled and said to Forsythia: "Lord Lian has benefited the people of Xijing, what is the crime, get up!"

"Your Highness Xie!" Forsythia secretly sighed, peeked at Shangguan Xiu, and saw that he looked happy, as if he didn't take this matter to heart at all, he flicked the sweat on his forehead with his cuffs, and the heart that mentioned his throat and eyes fell back into his stomach.

Shangguan Xiu didn't scare Forsythia for no reason, and he was idle and had nothing to tease him, but let him understand a truth, if he wants to live well in Zhenjun, he must know who he should listen to, and who is the master of Zhenjun.
