Chapter 404: Plunder
readx;?
After reading Suba's very 'sincere' biography, Shangguan Xiu was overjoyed, being able to sit on half of the gold mine was too important for Zhenjun, who was currently short of money. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
He ordered Guangfang that he did not need to return to Xijing at the moment, but could stay in Huya Pass for the time being, waiting for the opportunity to move, as long as he felt that the time was right, and he could lead the brothers of Huya Pass to sneak attack the territory of the Xi tribe, and the garrison of Huya Pass could all obey his command.
For the next period of time, the defenders of the Huya Pass were like hungry tigers, constantly plundering out of the pass, at first, they were limited to attacking the territory of the Xi tribe, and then they really did not benefit from the Xi tribe, and they attacked the Shah tribe farther away.
In the northeastern and southeastern part of the Shah region, except for the Ba tribe, the rest of the tribes, large and small, were attacked and looted by the wind army.
In this regard, all the tribes in the east of Shah were indignant to the extreme, and they came to the rescue of the large tribes in the central and western parts of Shah. The Ba people are happy to see that it is too late to succeed, and how can they give them any assistance.
The rest of the big clans did not dare to challenge the Zhenjun army, they formed a coalition of 200,000 troops, joined forces with 200,000 Ningnan troops, and were all defeated by the Feng army when they attacked Huya Pass, and now they only rely on themselves to crusade against the wind people, isn't that going to find death?
The Shah clan turned a blind eye to the plundering of the Zhenjun army, and completely ignored it, and the attacked tribes could only change the direction of seeking help, send envoys to Shangjing, and complain to the court of the Feng country, accusing Shangguan Xiu of conniving at the ministry and constantly harassing the Shah tribe, and asking the court of the Feng country to severely punish them.

The current Fengguo Imperial Court is full of holes and ruins, the Central Army has suffered heavy casualties, and it urgently needs new recruits to fill it, and Tang Ling also intends to take this opportunity to remove all the former veteran commanders and replace them with the upstarts of the Young Zhuang faction that she cultivated and promoted herself.
Tang Ling herself was so busy that she had no extra energy to take care of the 'small things' that happened on Shah's side, and Tang Wanyun was in charge of the affairs on Shah's side, and she didn't want to worry about these trivial matters.
Tang Wanyun is naturally unswervingly on Shangguanxiu's side, she has met with the envoys sent by the Shah tribe, and also listened to the dissatisfaction and accusations of the Shah envoys against Shangguanxiu, but her statement is that Shangguanxiu did this, there must be a reason for him to do so, and the Shah ministries should not put the responsibility on him alone, but should also find the reasons and problems from themselves, and the contradictions between the two sides should be resolved through face-to-face consultation, rather than blindly going to Shangjing to complain.
This is Tang Wanyun's reply to the Shah envoy, of course, her reply also represents the opinion of the Imperial Court of the Wind Country.
The Shah envoys returned in vain, and they also wanted to negotiate with Shangguanxiu, but Shangguanxiu didn't see them at all, or rather, he couldn't see them now, and he was on his way to Tia.
Guangfang led the army to plunder the wealth from the Xi tribe and even other Shah tribes, which solved the urgent need of Zhenjun's shortage of money, and it can be said that it laid a solid material foundation for the construction of Zhenjun's recovery.
With sufficient financial support, Huya Pass was able to continue to be built, the Zhenjun army was able to re-purchase armaments and rations, the forge was officially operated, everything in Zhenjun was getting back on track in an orderly manner, and Shangguan Xiu finally had the opportunity to take a break and complete his trip to Tia.
Tia is located to the west of the Windy Country. To the east of Tia, adjacent to Ningjun of the Wind Country, and to the south of Tia, adjacent to Ningnan, its location is similar to that of Shah, but its area is far less vast than Shah, only equivalent to one-fifth or sixth-the size of Ningjun, and the population is even more sparse, less than one million.
For a long time, Tia has been known for its advanced science and technology, and in terms of the height of Tia's civilization, it was definitely the world's first power at that time, but the fatal thing is that Tia is small and the population is too scarce, which also leads to the serious lack of Tia's own national strength, and for hundreds of years, it has been under the rule of the Wind Country.
Although Tia continues to seek **, Tia also has to admit that without the rule of the Wind Country and the loss of the protection of the Wind Country, for hundreds of years, Tia may not be able to be destroyed by the surrounding powerful countries many times, not to mention Ningnan, just the behemoth in the north - the Kingdom of Besa, has coveted Tia for a long time.
Besa is not only the northern threat of Tia, but also the northern threat of the Windy Country, and the historical feud between the Windy Country and Besa has gone through hundreds of years, so I will not mention it here for the time being.
From Zhenjun to Tia, the road is long, and when he and Shangguan Qingyan went on the road, Shangguan Xiu only brought two people, Xiao Jue and Wu Yufei.
A group of four of them, they went all the way north, passed through Huan County, Yujun, and entered Ning County. In the national war between the Wind Country and Ningnan, Ningjun was a county that was too seriously damaged in the Wind Country, and in the two or three months of the invasion of the Ningnan Army, Ningjun was seriously damaged, and until now, many traces and ruins can still be seen after the war.
If it weren't for the urgency of time, Shangguan Xiu really wanted to revisit his old place and go to Luo Ying Town to see if it had recovered some vitality, and even more wanted to go back to the sinkhole to see those monster friends who were ugly on the outside but simple on the inside.
The further you go to the northwest of Ning County, the fewer traces of the war remain, and the ethnicity of the people becomes more and more complex and diverse.
In the northwestern part of Ningjun, there are the yellow-skinned and black-eyed Fengren, the black-haired and white-skinned Tia, and the blonde-haired and white-skinned Bessa.
However, there is no exotic architectural culture here, and even the Tia and Besa people who settled here have been completely assimilated by the Wind Country.
Passing through Ningjun, you will come to the junction of Ningjun and Tia, where there is a fortress called Yongsheng Pass.
It is called a fortress, which is actually a small town, there are not many garrisons in it, most of them are people of various nationalities living in it, in addition, there are many merchants of various ethnic groups in the past, and the city is not large, but it is very prosperous and lively.
Shangguan Xiu, Shangguan Qingyan, Xiao Jue, and Wu Yufei walked slowly forward along the people who entered the customs. When they approached the city gate, several wind soldiers came over and looked at the four of them, and one of the captains raised his head and said, "Show me your customs clearance documents." ”
Shangguan Qingyan took out his customs clearance papers, and Shangguan Xiuxiao and Wu Yufei directly showed their military cards.
After the Feng army commander saw Shangguan Qingyan's customs clearance documents, he didn't check more, and returned it directly, and took the military cards of Shangguan Xiu and the three of them, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Shangguan Xiu's military badge only indicated Zhenjun Jun and his name, and did not clearly write his specific title. Captain Feng looked over and over again, frowned and said, "Your military card is fake, right?"
"There is a fake exchange. Shangguan Xiu said with a smile.
"If so, why doesn't it state your military position? "Even if it is a lowest-level soldier, it will be written which legion, which corps, which battalion, which team is from, and Shangguan Xiu's military card is good, and there are three words on it: Zhenjun Army.
Seeing that he was not finished, Xiao Jue was quite impatient, frowned and said, "Brother, look at the back of the military card." ”
The captain of the wind soldiers consciously looked at the back of the military card, and the source of the other party was not written on it, only one name was written: Shangguan Xiu.
Seeing that his face was still full of inexplicability, Xiao Jue said in a deep voice: "Do you think that in the Zhenjun Army, there are still a few Shangguan adults?"
After he reminded him like this, the captain of the wind soldiers suddenly remembered who Shangguan Xiu was, no wonder he felt very familiar when he heard this name.
He hurriedly raised his head, looked at Shangguan Xiu, and stammered, "You...... This lord is the commander of the Zhenjun Army, Lord Shangguan?"
Shangguan Xiu nodded with a smile and asked, "Now, can I pass the level?"
The captain of the wind soldiers looked at Shangguan Xiu blankly, and did not come back to his senses for a long time, stunned in place, like a wooden stake. Xiao Jue was almost angry, and asked loudly: "What about the adults asking you, can we clear the customs now?"
"Yes...... Yes, of course you can!" The captain of the wind soldiers was shocked, nodded instinctively, and hurriedly handed the military badge in his hand back to Shangguan Xiu, and then involuntarily took two steps back, and was stunned for a moment, he suddenly remembered something, turned his head and hurriedly ran towards the city.
Now the name and prestige of the Zhenjun army in the country of wind should not be underestimated, first, the Zhenjun army is the only local army that has entered the territory of Ningnan, second, the Zhenjun army is also the only local army that has defeated the Ningnan army on the frontal battlefield, and it is also the enemy army that has completely annihilated 200,000, and its brilliant record is completely comparable to the central army.
Now that he learned that Shangguanxiu, the commander of the Zhenjun Army, had passed through Yongsheng Pass, the captain of the wind soldiers certainly did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ran to the city to report the news.
Shangguan Xiu and the four ignored him, passed through the city gate smoothly, and walked into Yongsheng Pass.
After entering the city, the four of them were a little dizzying, there were vendors on both sides of the street, selling everything, and there were many street performers, some performing traditional tricks, some performing foreign magic tricks, some juggling acrobatics, and some selling martial arts.
Shangguan Qingyan was so happy that her mouth couldn't close together, her eyes were shining, she held Shangguan Xiu's hand tightly, and said excitedly: "Ah Xiu, I am most familiar with this place, I know that there is a tavern in front of me, and the food is very authentic, let's go quickly!"
Shangguan Xiu was coming to Yongsheng Pass for the first time, and he really didn't know anything about this place, so he was pulled by Shangguan Qingyan and followed her forward. Shangguan Qingyan led them to a tavern, handed over the horses to the guys outside the store, and the four of them walked into the tavern.
It was bustling and full of people, especially on the second floor, which was constantly noisy. Shangguan Xiu frowned slightly and asked, "Why is there such a mess here?"
Shangguan Qingyan said with a smile: "The first floor of the tavern is for eating and drinking, and the second floor is for gambling and making money. ”
Shangguan Xiu shook his head secretly, looked at Shangguan Qingyan deeply, and said dissatisfiedly: "In the future, you will come to this kind of place less." "It's said to be a tavern, but it's actually a gambling house, a girl's house, and it's too unreasonable to often haunt this kind of place.
"Got it, got it, let's hurry up and order, I'm starving. Shangguan Qingyan impatiently dragged Shangguan Xiu and walked inside.
