Chapter 234: The Wind Rises

The Windy Country is a country dominated by agriculture, but the Windy Country has been bullied in the torrent of history. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Gale Country is an old dynasty, has a history of more than 400 years, at the beginning of the founding of the country, Gale Country is still smooth, the national strength is rising.

But that was because the Tianyuan Dynasty was divided and the two countries were at war, giving the Gale Country a chance to breathe.

However, in less than ten years, the Gale Country was in chaos, and the reason for the chaos was very simple, Emperor Taizu of the Gale Country was infected with an emergency, and he died without leaving a testament, and several princes fought for the throne.

And the emperor finally had it, and bad luck came, the Tianyuan Empire and the Great Yuan Empire, the war that had lasted for more than ten years stopped, and the two coincidentally set their sights on the Gale Country.

Although the two countries have been at war for a long time, they are big countries after all, and their national strength is not comparable to that of Gale Country.

At that time, the emperor's fear of war bowed to the two countries, and it also laid the foreshadowing for nearly 400 years in the country of Gale that it could not raise its head.

Since then, the Gale Country has been like a gas bag in front of the two big countries, and the two countries have regarded the Gale Country as their back garden, and they will come to fight the autumn wind if they have nothing to do.

For nearly 400 years, the Gale Country was exploited, and the two countries regarded the Gale Country as a granary, and the Gale Country had to hand over a large amount of grain and grass to the two countries every year.

And in the later stage, it is not a matter that Gale Country does not want to resist, it has been oppressed for a long time, compared to the two countries, Gale Country is getting weaker and weaker, and there is no ability to resist at all.

And the problem is not only that, because the Great Wind Country is located in the core of the Four Kingdoms, and it is not only necessary to guard against the Tian Yuan Empire and the Great Yuan Empire, but also to guard against the Great Qi Kingdom behind him at all times.

As for Great Xia, it's better to say that it is separated by hundreds of miles of mountains, and Great Xia cannot threaten the Gale Country, so Daxia has not had any threat to Gale for a long time.

In addition to the second generation of emperors, the subsequent emperors of the Gale Country are still working hard, otherwise it would not be possible to continue in the cracks for four hundred years.

However, it wasn't until two years ago that the Luo family brothers, Li Fenglong, and Zheng Qianqiu rose up one after another, creating a gale, otherwise Gale Country would not have fallen to the point it is now.

Now, the Wind Emperor really can't hold on, he has been in power for nearly 20 years, and no one understands better than him that the current situation of the Gale Country, external factors are still secondary, and there is only one reason that really makes the Gale Country become the situation it is today, and that is land annexation.

A large amount of land is in the hands of the landlords, and the common people have no land, only cheap long-term labor for the landlords, and this is the real reason for the decline of the Windy Country.

Don't say anything else, let's just say that the Luo family brothers, the Luo family brothers were originally poor and had no background, but they were such two brothers who wanted money and no money, and they wanted no people, and they actually created a rebellion in the country of Gale.

And occupies a third of the territory of the Windy Country, doesn't that tell the story!

The common people are too poor, and they can't eat a few full meals from beginning to end after working hard to farm, and what is even more hateful is that those landlords and old fortunes would rather rot their grain in the granary and bury the silver in the ground than contribute to the Gale Country, and this is where the disease of the Gale Country lies.

In the long run, ordinary people can't see the slightest hope, and I'm afraid it's the opposite for themselves.

As for why the landlord was not destroyed, it was not that the Wind Emperor did not want to, but that he couldn't do it at all.

There are two kinds of armies in the Gale Country, one is from the imperial court, and the imperial court's tax revenue is very small, which leads to fewer soldiers that the imperial court can raise.

The current army of the Great Wind Country is only 300,000 people, of which 200,000 are guarding the periphery of the two major rebel armies, such as the 20,000 army stationed in Longjiang Mansion, or the 20,000 army squeezed out by the Wind Emperor from the limited force.

And those 20,000 people are not only stationed in Longjiang Prefecture, but also in charge of Linhe Prefecture with 500,000 people.

In other words, once Longjiang misses, then Linhe Prefecture will soon be unable to be saved.

And the other kind of army in the Gale Country is the private army, the tenant army of the landlord and the old wealth, such as the Wangshan Town captured by Shen Mufeng, although this Wanshan Town is under the rule of the imperial court, but it is a few big landlords who have the final say, and the local yamen must consider the opinions of several big landlords in some major matters.

Each of those large landowners had hundreds or thousands of tenants, but Longjiang was a special place, because there had been no war for decades, so the tenant army had little combat power to speak of.

But then again, with the cold weapon and Shen Mufeng's black-skinned army, the two are no longer on the same level at all.

To give you the simplest example, are there no rivers and lakes in the four states? Obviously, no, and there is no shortage of masters of rivers and lakes, but are these masters of rivers and lakes really willing to obey the law and be ordinary people?

Obviously, not all martial arts masters will choose this way, and where have those martial arts masters gone, the answer is very simple, either flee from the four states, or stop living the life of ordinary people, if you don't choose either way, then you can only be an absenteeism that does not see the light of day.

And the Gale Country does not have Shen Mufeng, and the Wind Emperor also does not have such a strong foundation, although his heart is higher than the sky, and he governs the Gale Foundation wholeheartedly, when will he not wait for him, and when he learns that the north gate of the Gale Country is wide open, where are the other state capitals still capable of resisting the attack of Daxia.

"Your Majesty, you are so tired, why are you so difficult for yourself!" The queen's eyes were red, and she couldn't help but cry.

Feng Chenhan's face was bitter, and he poured himself a glass of wine and was about to drink it, but at this time, a eunuch hurriedly walked in, and when he saw that Empress Guo was also there, he couldn't help but bend his body lower.

"See the Emperor and Queen!"

Feng Chenhan sighed and said, "Say, what's the matter this time?"

Feng Chenhan's face had returned to normal, but his hand had betrayed him, and his trembling hand put the wine into his mouth, suppressing the bitterness in his heart with a mouthful full of spiciness.

The eunuch swallowed his saliva and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, Linhe Prefecture, Linhe Prefecture has lost ......"

As soon as the words came out, Feng Chenhan's face changed greatly, he only felt that his throat was sweet, and the blood mixed with the wine suddenly spurted out, and then he rolled his eyes and fainted.

The eunuch screamed in fright, and Empress Guo's face changed, and as soon as she shook her hand, a dagger that exuded a cold glow flew out, directly killing the eunuch who was delivering the message under the knife.

Only then did he hurriedly come to his husband to check his husband's situation, it didn't matter, Guo Rendai's face sank, his breath was weak, and his pulse was weak.

Feng Chenhan has been in power for nearly 20 years, and it can be said that he has invested all his energy, and his health is already very poor, and hearing this news, he is obviously a great blow.

Guo Rendai knew that there was no time to delay, so she hurriedly put her internal strength into Feng Chenhan's body, barely protecting Feng Chenhan's heart, and the treatment of this disease was only secondary, mainly in conditioning and mood.

Don't look at Guo Rendai is less than forty years old, but the two ways of medicine and martial arts are comparable to everyone, and the illness of wind and morning cold naturally does not affect Guo Rendai.

But what really worries her is not just the illness, but also the fact that once this Windy Country is shattered, even if the husband is cured, the husband may be hit again, and I am afraid that the husband at that time will really not be able to stand it.

Guo Rendai carried Feng Chenhan to the bed, and then cleaned up the hall, and then called the eunuchs to announce the decree, and the ministers of various ministries handled military affairs, and then called a pair of children to discuss countermeasures.

Feng Chenhan has not made any achievements in governing the country in his life, but what he is most proud of is his pair of children.

His son Fengrui is twenty-two years old, with outstanding appearance, both civil and military. Daughter Feng Hui'er is eighteen years old, with unparalleled wisdom, and is in charge of the Shenji Battalion, if there is no pair of children in the past two years, Feng Chenhan may not be able to hold on to it now.

So when Feng Rui and Feng Hui'er arrived, Guo Rendai told the matter directly, and Feng Hui'er's face rarely showed a solemn look.

"Your father's condition needs to be recuperated now, and the burden on his body is too heavy, and you all know what our family is like now.

Now that your brothers and sisters are older, what should you do, you brothers and sisters have an idea!" )
