[484] Distant marriage

The Xuan robe made of silkworm silk was loosely draped over Xiao Shizhu's body, and with his lazy expression, the whole ghost didn't look like a son of a god at all, let alone a noble ghost kingdom Hades. On the contrary, it is like a market ghost who is idle and has nothing to do all day.

After a long yawn, Xiao Shizhu glanced at Hu Biao, who looked nervous, and asked disapprovingly, "What kind of armistice agreement?"

"Here's the thing, half a month ago, the corpse of Luxe and King Taishan led their troops to fight a big battle in Mingfeng Valley, which resulted in heavy losses on both sides. At this time, our army took advantage of the situation and seized the Langya Pass on the Langya Mountain in the east of Xiazhou State. But after he learned that the corpse failed to ally with our country, he simply offered to make a truce with the corpse. After sorting out his thoughts, Hu Biao said to him and the ghost mother.

"Will Emperor Xudu agree?" Xiao Shizhu's overconfidence was done again, and he still didn't care, but he didn't care about it after a long yawn unhurriedly.

"Yes. Hu Biao then nodded his head, and then said urgently: "According to the internal report we arranged in the Xudu Army, the Blacktooth Soul Army in the Black Tooth Country and the Xudu Army stationed on the Retreat Plain have moved south, pinning down the army of the Corpse Country from the north and west. Although the corpse is not afraid of the Black Tooth army, it is also busy dealing with the northwest and north of the country of the corpse, borrowing from the country of the Black Tooth, and has already suppressed the army of Xudu, so the current situation is that not only the Emperor of Xudu, but also the corpse of Xubi has agreed to the proposal of King Taishan and is actively preparing for peace. ”。

The cool breeze of the early morning was used through the gaps in the doors and windows of the gods, and as Hu Biao's words came towards Xiao Shizhu, he suddenly sobered up for a while, and his previous disbelief faded.

Xiao Shizhu, who was already gradually frowning, suddenly cheered up.

In this way, it means that King Taishan is very likely to merge with the Xiazhou National Army after a short rest and carry out a key attack on the Jiuyou National Army in Dongyizhou.

Although Lin Cong and Xuan Sailor have far more troops than Ying Zhao during the siege of Shuoyue Island, and the soldiers and horses that King Taishan can adjust in Dongyi Continent are much less than those of the Chinese New Year's Eve, but Aoki County is different from Shuoyue Island; the Nine Ghost Country has deep roots on Shuoyue Island, but Aoki County is in the critical period of post-war reconstruction at this time, once the war is brought to the county, it will inevitably arouse the disappointment of the local people in the Nine Ghost Country, and the civil rebellion will also be stirred up at any time.

This is really not a hasty thing!

Xiao Shizhu's brows furrowed a little tighter, and after putting away his rashness, the whole ghost also stood straight.

After a little mover, Xiao Shizhu asked Hu Biao Zhengse: "Has our Neiying sent back the information on how many troops and the number of weapons King Taishan still has in his hands now?"

"It's so big that I said it. After Hu Biao recalled for a while, he said slowly and thoughtfully: "After the battle of Mingfeng Valley was started in the night rain, King Taishan's non-waterproof artillery was mostly scrapped after a few fights because of water ingress. Now there are only 160,000 troops left, only 70 or so artillery pieces can be used, and there are only more than 3,000 intact firearms. ”。

After hearing this, Xiao Shizhu breathed a sigh of relief, and the ghost mother, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said unhurriedly in an affirmative tone: "In this way, King Taishan will not dare to divide his troops." ”。

This can be seen from the fact that he signed an armistice agreement under the pretense of rest and recuperation under the condition that he had an army to help him contain the corpse soul army, so as to go south, and may advance eastward at any time to solve the Jiuyou National Army, so it can also be seen that the ghost of King Taishan is really not an idle person.

However, King Taishan, who did not have much artillery, did not dare to venture. Moreover, the strength of the troops in his hands, as well as the advanced firearms and bravery of the Nine Shadows Army, etc., did not allow him to dare to advance. Once he really wants to fight the Nine Shadow Country, then it is only possible to concentrate all the forces and give the Nine Shadow Kingdom a strategy that hurts its ten fingers rather than cut off one of its fingers.

The ghost mother's words reminded Xiao Shizhu, so as long as the Xudu army dared to attack the idea of Aoki County, it would be very easy to deal with.

"Inform Xuanshui to stop all attacks, and don't provoke the Xudu army for the time being. After a little hesitation, Xiao Shizhu had already drawn up a plan in his heart, and then he walked to the ghost mother and sat down, and after a pause, he thought about it carefully, thinking that no matter how the supply ships of the Northern Yin Dynasty went, they would unload materials from the coastal area of Xiazhou Kingdom, so he said: "Tell the sailors under the command of Gonggong that from today onwards, they will only cruise along the coast of Xiazhou Kingdom, and there is only one goal, that is, to attack the coastline of Xiazhou Country and the granaries of the towns on the coastline." ”。

"Ordered the Gonggong to send a large number of flying troops to reconnoiter along the coastal areas of Xiazhou State, and once they found that there were materials hoarded on the shore, they immediately rushed to the local area. The ghost mother took over and continued to Hu Biao: "There is also a military camp. ”。

"That's right, let all the fortifications along the coast of Xiazhou become slag. Xiao Shizhu nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "In addition, tell Hei Wuchang to let him board the Gonggong flagship and fight side by side with him, if the sergeant needs to disembark and land for battle, it will be commanded by Fan Baye." ”。

"No. After Hu Biao answered, Xiao Shizhu waved his hand and motioned for him to step back.

"It was an overnight tea bar. After Hu Biao left, Xiao Shizhu raised his teapot again, and before he could put it to his mouth, the ghost mother reached out and grabbed it: "Don't drink the overnight tea, let's make you a new pot." ”。

Yubi's ghost mother clapped her hands, and Su Su followed suit.

"Give it to Dr. Tea, and let them make another cup for the lord. The ghost mother snatched the purple clay pot in Xiao Shizhu's hand and handed it to Su Su.

"The Northern Yin Dynasty is full of ghosts, which makes me really a little anxious. Xiao Shizhu, who had always been calm and composed, had been frowning slightly today, and after careful calculations based on the intelligence from all sides, he could see that in the past three or four months, the Beiyin Dynasty had transferred nearly one million troops to Dongyizhou.

In addition, the ghost kingdoms that relied on the allegiance to the Emperor of Xudu and captured the army of Dongyizhou for the Northern Yin Dynasty were conservatively estimated to be more than three million.

With such a large formation, it is clear that it is imperative to win Dongyizhou. If the Xudu Army and these forces that were loyal to the Northern Yin Dynasty were not restrained by the forces of other parties, and they were marching towards the Nine Shadows Kingdom, they would definitely be able to expel the Nine Shadows Kingdom from Dongyi Continent within a month.

Xiao Shizhu frowned and sat in place, thinking about something in a daze. He now looks at the vast territory and has a lot of troops, but it is precisely because his territory is expanding too fast that he has no troops to adjust.

This is also where he is distressed, otherwise he would not have taken the more than 3 million enemy troops in Dongyi Continent seriously.

"Let's take it one step at a time. Despite the great strength of the Xudu Army, our soldiers and their advanced firearms are not vegetarians. The ghost mother saw the distress in Xiao Shizhu's heart, so after pursing her lips and chuckling, she calmed him down a few words in a soft voice, and said: "Why don't you distribute the first batch of falling star cannons to Lin Cong and Xuanshui, as well as the soldiers who are fighting bloody battles in Dongyi Continent?"

"Advanced firearms can also make or break the difference. The ghost mother took her husband's hand and slowly clenched it: "With the Falling Star Cannon, King Taishan's army of more than 100,000 is not to be feared at all. ”。

"Hmm. Xiao Shizhu nodded in response, and his brows furrowed. This is currently the most effective method.

"Also, you have another baby. In a blink of an eye, his face was slightly red, and the ghost mother with a faint shyness between his eyebrows and facial features took his hand and gently pressed his broad palm on his lower abdomen.

Xiao Shizhu was a little dumbfounded, and after staring at the ghost mother for a long time, he asked in a trembling voice with joy: "You, are you really pregnant again?"

The ghost mother nodded slightly and hummed softly......

In the northeast of the underworld, to the north of Dongyizhou, in the middle of Dongyingzhou in the Qinglong Sea, there is a ghost country called Qingqiu Kingdom. Most of the ghosts in the country are a kind of fox ghosts and demons with blue skin and blue skin, and although the body is no different from a human soul, there is a long fox tail on the back of the thigh, and the head is still a fox head, and there are often fox ghosts and demons with fox fur on the body.

Such a ghost country composed of demons is also one of the forces that are now rebelling against the Emperor of Xudu.

While Emperor Xudu was busy using Zhao'an to seize Fenglin Continent, and Xiao Shizhu and King Taishan were busy fighting for Dongyi Continent, this ghost country called Qingqiu was also rising in secret.

The fox ghosts possessed demonic arts, and the northern attack came to exterminate their giant kingdom at the request of Emperor Xudu, and destroyed this ghost country composed of tall mountain ghosts.

Immediately afterwards, they went south to conquer the Jingren Kingdom, and beat this ghost country composed of dwarf souls to the point that they had to pay compensation to the Qingqiu Kingdom. However, in just five years, Qingqiu Kingdom has expanded from the original land of four counties to a big ghost country with eleven counties of land.

He also beat the Xudu army in Dongyingzhou many times to the point of losing their armor, so that the Emperor Xudu, who was fighting in the east and west at the same time, had to agree to the request put forward by the fox ghost king, and promised to let the Qingqiu Kingdom implement autonomy and no longer pay tribute to the Beiyin Dynasty, so as to calm the war with the Qingqiu Kingdom.

And the capital of Qingqiu country is also very special, the national capital of other ghost countries are cities, but the capital of Qingqiu country is the pavilion row upon row on the Hengling, the ancestral hall looks at each other, and the Qingqiu Mountain in front of Qingqiu Spring is dug out of the grottoes all over the place;

These grottoes are like ant nests, extending together in the body of Qingqiu Mountain, the scale is magnificent, and the secret passages that extend in all directions, and the two sides of the mountain road are full of different sizes, richly carved stone chambers, these stone chambers are the palace of the fox ghost king.

In the south of Qingqiu Mountain, in the secret passage of a cave behind a grotto on the hillside, in the first stone room, sat a human soul with round eyes and thin eyebrows, square lips and a thin black beard.

In the Qingqiu Kingdom, human souls are rare. And the human souls that can live in the Qingqiu Fox Cave are only the souls of the Tu Shan clan.

These people who once participated in the Tushan Alliance in the world, helped Dayu control the water and excluded and suppressed dissidents, and finally helped Dayu win the world's human souls, and after arriving in the underworld, they lost the support of the Xia Hou clan (Dayu Xia Qi and their family), and naturally they were not so noble when they were in the world.

They had to rely on the fox ghosts to live a superior life than other ghosts. Even so, it is only a superior person in Qingqiu Country.

It's just that after dozens of generations, the souls of the Tu Shan clan are still ambitious. Among them, sitting in this simple stone room at this time, the middle-aged soul had the greatest ambition.

He is now the patriarch of the Tu Shan clan, named Tu Shigong.

At this time, Tu Shigong was staring at the young female ghost sitting opposite him, and this beautiful female ghost with faint frowning eyebrows was Tu Shigong's daughter Tu Yaoqing.

Tu Shigong looked at his elegant and beautiful daughter for a long time, and then said slowly: "Yaoqing, you have to be ready to marry far away." ”。
