Chapter 13: Without Delay!
Qin Zhao couldn't help but be a little happy at this time, but fortunately, he didn't give up the five thousand luck and exchanged this artifact.
In addition to the matter of Emperor Xia and Li Fu, there is too much additional information given on this imperial list!
First of all, the huge luck of the relics of Wu Guo and Zhou Guo made him a little shocked!
When the Five Kingdoms were in turmoil, the northern part was the territory of the former Xia State, and the southern part was divided between the Qian State and the Jin State in the west and the east.
The two countries of Wu and Zhou are the second most powerful countries in strength after Great Xia.
Among them, the Wu State occupies the eastern territory of the Terran territory, adjacent to the East China Sea, rich in materials and extremely strong in economy.
The Zhou State occupied the western part of the country, and although the materials were slightly inferior, they were close to some smaller foreign tribes, and the fighting was continuous, and even the combat effectiveness of ordinary people was generally stronger than that of other countries.
The point is that there is a feud between the Wu Kingdom and Great Xia! Just looking at the luck show, Great Xia, a newly unified dynasty, is in danger of overturning at any time!
Moreover, it is clearly written on the emperor's list that some people have not yet entered a state of good luck at this time.
The current Great Xia is simply a sieve! And those relics of the old country are the moths that are still eating away at this veil!
Qin Zhao's biological mother, Lu Shi, was the former princess of Wuguo. Her death was related to a rebellion. It was precisely because of this incident that Emperor Xia did not hesitate to swing the butcher's knife at the remaining royal family of Wuguo at that time, and all of them were killed.
As for the Liang family, it was a strong clan in the Five Kingdoms period, and it also had royal blood in its body.
If it weren't for this imperial list, he didn't expect that there would be more private soldiers in the remnants of Wu and Zhou!
You must know that now the Great Xia Dynasty plus the Black Household Dingtian has a population of seventy or eighty million, and it is already very difficult to raise a million troops.
But this imperial list shows that not only the Wu State and the Zhou State each had 150,000 private troops. Even the remnants of the Qianguo have 100,000 soldiers! At the time when the five countries were vying for power, the Qianguo was notoriously weak.
The reign of Great Xia was not long, the foundation was still unstable, and many laws were not comprehensive. For example, the area of raising a private army is a big problem.
At the beginning, the five countries competed for power, and each country was in a state where all the people were soldiers, and they could not only work in the field but also go into battle to kill the enemy. It is precisely for this reason that after the reunification, this problem in the fiefdoms cannot be cured for the time being.
However, considering the cost of raising soldiers and the high taxes on some fiefdoms, I didn't think that there would be too many hidden dangers.
But I never thought that these legacy elites of the old era had developed to such a field silently!
And looking at the strength of this luck, he estimated that the soldiers of the Wuzhou relics were by no means indiscriminate, but elite troops.
Qin Zhao couldn't help but sigh secretly again, there is a long way to go......
However, what made him a little puzzled was why his imperial sister Qin Xuan had such high luck.
For Qin Xuan, Qin Zhao was not wary. Unlike several other imperial brothers, Qin Xuan is the sister of his mother's compatriots, and she is absolutely reliable regardless of blood relationship or political position.
But now is not the time to consider these issues, since it has been determined that Emperor Xia has an accident, some plans must be changed.
His idea at this time was to quickly enter Beijing before Li Fu could react and make a time difference.
was originally the eldest son of Emperor Xia, and he had the position of the crown prince, as long as Qin Zhao appeared in the capital, the throne would be his, which was equivalent to being directly invincible!
Li Fu is a eunuch, and there will be no threat at all.
Thinking of this, Qin Zhao's eyes shone brightly, and he turned his head to look in the direction of the capital.
"I wonder what your choice will be? Prime Minister Chu! ”
......
In the front hall of the General's Mansion, Yan Qingjun looked at Qin Zhao who came over, and was a little puzzled.
"Your Highness, I have already asked the soldiers to hurry up and collect those things you arranged, but it will take at least a day or two to do it."
"No, I didn't come to you for this matter, those ant kings don't want it first."
He didn't want to make a rebellion Gu first, and going to the capital as soon as possible was the key to breaking the game!
"What's wrong?" Yan Qingjun couldn't help but get nervous when he saw his serious face.
"I have confirmed that something happened to my father, and I must rush to the capital immediately, and I can't delay!"
"What?!" Yan Qingjun looked shocked, and his lips trembled slightly.
"Your Highness, what do you mean by accident......"
In fact, she had already guessed it, but like Qin Zhao just now, she couldn't believe it at all until she got clear information.
Qin Zhao's expression was sad, but more resolute and serious.
"I have my information channels, and I am ninety percent sure that my father is no longer alive."
Yan Qingjun's eyes were blank when he heard this, and his body shook slightly.
"What should I do?"
"Without further ado, leave for Beijing immediately! The later you go, the greater the variables! Qin Zhao said without hesitation.
As a general who led 300,000 troops, Yan Qingjun was not an ordinary person after all, and after the initial panic, he quickly calmed down.
His eyes stared at Qin Zhao, and he said in a deep voice: "The question now is, how do we enter Beijing?" The talisman is with His Majesty! ”
Qin Zhao understood what she meant.
Emperor Xia patrols the world, and it is impossible for the talisman to be handed over to others, and it must also be in the emperor's car.
Now that Emperor Xia's death has been concealed by Li Fu, he can completely use the name of Emperor Xia to transfer troops to blockade the capital.
It was impossible for Qin Zhao to sneak into the capital without hiding the hundreds of thousands of troops around the capital!
As for the 300,000 Xuanjia troops at the border pass, this cannot be mobilized.
Yan Qingjun only has the right to command, and he can be fully responsible in Shangyang County. But if you want to lead these 300,000 soldiers into Beijing, no matter how you think about it, you know that it is impossible!
Moreover, once these armies make large-scale moves, neither Li Fu nor the northern alien race will turn a blind eye, and the already poor situation will collapse even more.
However, on this point, Qin Zhao has already made up his mind.
"Directly from the south of Shangyang County across the Heavenly Canal, we will pass through Anning County and enter Beijing in the name of my sister Qin Xuan!"
After the unification of Great Xia, the world was divided into the capital city plus nine counties.
It is centered on the capital city of Yangcheng.
Beishan County in the north, stationed 100,000 Black Eagle Army, according to foreign races in the north, guarding the capital.
Donghai County in the east, most of which was given to the relics of the Wu Kingdom, is now the base camp of the Liang family. There is also a part of the garrison of the right general Bai Mu, commanding 100,000 Xuanjia troops.
Sanchuan County in the south, which is also adjacent to the East China Sea, has most of the land divided into Jin nobles, which are managed by the Shantai clan. At this time, Li Fu was here, and Emperor Xia was nominally touring here.
Nanyang County in the southwest, Great Xia was divided into the heroes of the old country, and 150,000 Flying Tiger troops were stationed to defend the capital and resist foreign races in the south. However, there is a long river that acts as a natural danger barrier, and the southern alien race does not pose much threat to this place.
Surabaya County is located to the west of Nanyang County, most of which is administered by the Ji clan, a relic of the Qianguo Kingdom, and part of the northeast bordering Anning County. In addition, there are 50,000 Red Python troops commanded by Ling Heng, the general of Annan, stationed at Wugao Pass, monitoring the movements of the Ji clan.
Just west of Yangcheng is the Anning County he is going to go to this time. The central and eastern regions of this place were both fiefs given by the Xia Emperor to the princess Qin Xuan. As far as Qin Zhao knew, she also raised about 50,000 private soldiers in the Hundred Flowers Army.
