Time flies.

When Xu Yi and Wang Qiujin walked out of Pingcheng in a carriage.

It's June 22.

During the five days of staying in Pingcheng, Xu Yi sat and played with Xu Qi every day, in addition to touring the mountains and rivers with Wang Qiujin.

During this period, the residence of the husband and wife has been in the Tangxi Courtyard of the Wangfu of that generation.

Because of this, every move of the husband and wife in Pingcheng is under the supervision of Xu Qi.

Inside the carriage of the Yanwang Mansion.

Xu Yi sat upright at the small wooden table, his eyes slightly closed, and his fingers slowly tapped on the small wooden table in front of him.

In my mind, I kept repeating the scenes when I came into contact with Xu Qi in the past five days.

There are no impermeable walls in the world, let alone absolute camouflage.

It's just a matter of being careful or not.

Since Xu Yi calmed down, he tried several times without a trace.

I also found some clues.

Xu Yi's fingers paused slightly, and two big words slowly appeared in his heart - 'strong enemy.' ，

Xu Qi, the king of that generation, must have had a similar purpose to him.

But Xu Qi has been in the domain for many years after all, and the accumulated heritage is by no means comparable to Xu Yi at this time.

If a few years later, there will really be a sudden change in the territory of the Great Zhou.

Then sooner or later there will be a real life-and-death battle between Xu Yi and Xu Qi.

Without him, Yanmen County, Dai County, Shanggu County, and Yuyang County, the distance between these four counties is too close.

Can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch?

If Xu Yi wants to take the land of Guanzhong, he must first take Xu Qi, otherwise the logistics and the nest will not be guaranteed at all.

In the same way, if Xu Qi wants to enter the land of Guanzhong, he must solve Xu Yi as soon as possible.

If not, there is a risk that it will be smashed at any time.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi couldn't help but start to examine himself.

Compared with Xu Qi's secret control of the two counties, it is generally different to turn the two counties into iron buckets.

Although Xu Yi has not yet arrived in Yandi, he has already established two enemies invisibly.

First, Li Guangli's son, the former No. 1 gentleman in Chang'an City, and now Li Yu, the captain of Shanggu County.

Second, Sun Daohua, the county guard of Shanggu County.

Although Xu Yi didn't know how much Xu Yong and others had to pay, they were able to protect Sun Daohua under the final court game.

But Xu Yi understood that if he wanted to save a feudal official from the Xiongnu invasion, the price he needed to pay would be extremely large.

If Sun Daohua's ability was mediocre and his loyalty could not be guaranteed, Xu Yong would definitely not pay a great price to protect him.

Leave aside the two enemies who are already on the bright side.

Xu Yi's influence in Yan Land cannot be compared with Xu Qi's influence in Dai Land.

Without him, one has not yet arrived in the domain, and the other has been secretly operating the domain for more than 20 years.

How to compare?

In addition to this, there is also the military aspect.

The strength of the three guard battalions of the king was 15,000 on the surface.

On average, a guard battalion of five thousand people.

This amount is in line with Xu Qi's mediocre character.

But judging from Xu Yi's observation of Xu Qi in the past few days, this person's degree of caution is no weaker than Xu Yi's own.

If Xu Yi is Xu Qi, then he will definitely cultivate more soldiers in secret.

….

If Xu Yi was Xu Qi, the number would definitely be controlled at about 5,000 people.

None of them.

If the quantity is large, the consumption of grain and grass alone is tantamount to self-detonation.

Not to mention issues like training grounds.

And now Xu Yiming's troops are only 200 soldiers of Gu Dengyun.

If you count all the 3,000 troops in the trapped camp, it is only 3,000

The rest of the troops are gone.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi couldn't help but pause his fingers tapping on the small wooden table, and his brows furrowed slightly.

I couldn't help but think in my heart, "The issue of including the troops trapped in the camp into the escort battalion is urgent."

"Besides, I don't have much time left, and I must expand all three escort battalions within a year."

The military is the foundation of life.

There is no need to be reminded of this, Xu Yi is naturally very clear in his heart.

Moreover, the strength here refers to the real elite army, not the indiscriminate army.

And if you want to train elite soldiers, you can't do without a lot of money.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi couldn't help but sigh heavily.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Xu Yi sighing, Wang Qiujin couldn't help but say softly and concernedly, "Are you still worried about the affairs of the palace?"

Although Wang Qiujin didn't know why Xu Yi sighed, it was not difficult to guess with his intelligence that Xu Yi's sigh must be due to the royal palace of that generation.

None of them.

Wang Qiujin did not forget that Xu Yi was drunk on the night he first arrived at the Daiwang Mansion.

In the next five days, anyone who goes out to enjoy the mountains and rivers must be a real tour.

Xu Yi's various abnormalities have only existed since he entered Pingcheng.

With Wang Qiujin's carefulness, it is certainly not difficult to find these.

Xu Yi opened his eyes and did not hide it: "Exactly, when I went to the county government for a banquet that day, as soon as Fang walked out of the palace of the acting king, he found a shadow behind him."

"Until I returned from the banquet and entered the palace of the king, I received a message from my heart again, and the shadow was still there."

Wang Qiujin was shocked when he heard this, and said, "Why would the acting king send someone to spy on you and me."

As soon as the words fell, Wang Qiujin seemed to suddenly realize something.

Hurriedly asked, "Have I ever lost my words in the past few days?"

Xu Yi shook his head slightly and said, "Don't worry, no."

The reason why I didn't tell Wang Qiujin until now was because I was afraid that Wang Qiujin would unconsciously show unnaturalness after learning that someone was watching.

After all, when Xu Yi and Xu Qi were playing chess, Wang Qiujin was also talking about the princess and other female scrolls.

With Wang Qiujin's intelligence, she naturally understands what to say and what not to say, of course, this is based on normal circumstances.

And if Wang Qiujin has something hidden in her heart, she will inevitably be distracted when talking to the princess and other female scrolls.

When a woman of the level and age of the princess is concerned, the slightest abnormality can make her suspicious.

When Wang Qiujin heard this, he instantly figured out the reason for this.

I couldn't help but put my mind at ease, and said again and again, "That's good, that's good."

Xu Yi smiled and didn't say too much on this matter.

Instead, they diverted from the topic and talked about other things.

Without him, it is just like this in the royal palace.

There are some things that are suitable for Wang Qiujin to know, so that she can take some precautions.

….

There are some things that are not suitable for Wang Qiujin to know, in case she inadvertently reveals unnaturalness.

As for the purpose of entering Pingcheng this time, Xu Yi never mentioned it.

In fact, the reason why Xu Yi entered Pingcheng with such a righteous and bright guard of honor with the prince this time.

It's just to meet Xu Qi in person.

If Xu Qizhen is as ambitious and forbearant as Xu Zhen said.

Then Xu Yi must be more wary of it.

If Xu Zhen looked away, or Xu Yi didn't notice the abnormality.

Then Xu Yi will delve deeper into the border defense with him.

borrowed the identity of a nephew to learn from Xu Qi's experience. ，

After all, Xu Zhen's base camp is still in the Western Regions and other places, and in terms of familiarity with the Mobei grassland, it is naturally not as good as Xu Qi.

What's more, Xu Qi also occupies Yanmen County and Dai County, which are of great significance

of the border counties.

Since ancient times, whenever there was a confrontation between the north and the south within the Central Plains Dynasty, its main battlefield would generally be in three places.

That is, the Huai River basin in the east, Nanyang and Xiangfan in the middle, and the Hanzhong basin in the west.

And it involves the north-south confrontation between the agrarian dynasties of the Central Plains and the northern nomads.

Its main battlefield usually appears in three places.

That is, the northern part of the North China Plain, that is, the area of Yuyang County.

The area of Yanmen County and Yandi Valley County on the Jindi Plateau is where Xu Yi and Xu Qi's respective palaces are located.

Beyond that is the Hetao region in the west.

If the Xiongnu went south from the desert grassland, the best choice would undoubtedly be Shanggu County.

And this is also the fundamental reason why Xu Yong wants to do everything possible to force Xu Yi to Yandi even if he knows that he has become the wronged leader.

After arriving in Shanggu County, the Xiongnu generally had three choices.

First, along the Yanghe valley all the way to the east, break through the Juyong Pass, and the troops pointed directly at the North China Plain.

The area where this passage is located is Shanggu County, which is why Shanggu County actually bears the heavy responsibility of sheltering the entire North China Plain.

This is also the core value of its existence.

This passage is the most convenient shortcut for the Northwest Grasslands to invade the North China Plain, but it is also the most heavily defended passage.

Without him, he is famous all over the world.

Because of this, the second passage came out.

Second, divide the troops to contain the soldiers of Shanggu County, and then divide the troops to detour to the Bauhinia Pass.

The core area where this passage is located is Daigun.

It's just that due to the containment of Shanggu County, the forces that can attack Bauhinia Pass are limited after all.

Not the first choice of the Huns.

The third passage is through Huai'an'er, Tianzhen, Yanggao and other places, directly invading the Jindi Basin.

Then go all the way south to Yanmen Pass.

The location of this passage is Yanmen County, and its core is Pingcheng.

To a certain extent, the core value of Yanmen County's existence is to provide effective protection for places such as Guannei Gorilla Prefecture and Jinyang City.

It is precisely because of this that although Xu Qi is named Daiwang, his palace is not in Daijun but in Pingcheng, Yanmen County.

Although Xu Yi has the heart to turn the tide and recreate the Great Zhou.

But deep down, he was extremely resistant to the entry of the Huns.

It's a pity.

Pingcheng and his party are destined to never be able to cooperate with Xu Qi sincerely.

And this means that if Xu Yi wants to implement his inner ambitions, he still has to abide by the bottom line.

The difficulty is tantamount to ascending to the sky.

However, if people have no bottom line, how is it different from animals?

As early as when he was in the Tangxi Courtyard of Yanwang Mansion, Xu Yi had already made a decision in his heart.

......

......

The carriage continued.

When the time comes to the last day of June.

Xu Yi's path to becoming a feudal lord is coming to an end.

Around noon, the sun is shining brighter.

The convoy with the banner of the Yanzi King slowly stopped ten miles outside the city of Fuyang City.

Not far from the front of the convoy, a large number of officials led by a man in purple official robes quickly walked towards the convoy.

When they were more than ten paces away from the convoy, a large number of officials slowly stopped.

More than ten steps away, they are arranged neatly in the order of civil and military.

The man in the purple robe was left to step forward slowly.

The man in the purple robe finally stopped three paces away from the convoy.

After straightening his clothes, he saluted respectfully in the direction of the carriage and said, "Xiaguan Shanggu County Guard Sun Daohua, welcome His Royal Highness King Yan."

After the words fell, the official behind him saluted respectfully and said, "We will welcome His Royal Highness King Yan."

After everyone saluted, Xu Yi lifted the car

The curtain slowly stepped out of the carriage.

walked in front of Sun Daohua and slowly helped him up, and said with a calm face: "Sun Junshou is polite, please get up quickly."

After Sun Daohua returned and got up completely with a thank you gift.

Xu Yi looked at the many officials who were respectfully saluting more than ten steps away, and said calmly, "Everyone, please get up quickly."

"His Royal Highness King Xie Yan." When the officials heard this, they bowed deeply again, and then slowly got up.

After everyone got up, Xu Yi's eyes flashed from the face of a young general in the crowd, and then he greeted Sun Daohua casually.

And the person who was deliberated by him was not an outsider, it was really the eldest son of Li Guangli, the general of the dynasty, and Li Yu, the captain of Shanggu County.

It is different from the portrait seen in Chang'an City.

At this time, Li Yuxu has experienced several years of tempering at the border, but there is not the slightest hint of smiling on his body.

On the contrary, it gives people an unusually capable feeling.

In particular, the extra scar on his face for some reason added a bit of iron and blood to his plainness.

However, what really made Xu Yi pay attention was not this.

It's that Xu Yi didn't feel the slightest hostility from Li Yu from beginning to end.

Maybe it's too far away.

Xu is Li Yu has experienced several years of beating at the border, and he has been completely reborn.

If it's the first one, it's fine.

If it's the second option, it's a little more troublesome.

It is important to know that dogs that bite people do not bark.

As for what kind of situation it is, Xu Yi is not in a hurry to verify it for the time being.

None of them.

No matter what the situation is, Xu Yi will have no less time secretly dealing with Li Yuming in the future.

Xu Yi settled down, and then focused all his attention on Sun Daohua in front of him.

Sun Daohua is about fifty years old.

The gray hair is meticulously coiled.

Facing the ordinary, but always with a hint of sadness.

I don't know if it was its camouflage or because of the Xiongnu invasion.

I don't know why.

The more Xu Yi greeted him, the more he felt that Sun Daohua gave him a feeling of discomfort.

Especially Sun Daohua's eyes, Xu Yi felt like a poisonous snake in the animal world in his previous life.

After Xu Yi exchanged pleasantries with him for a while, he and his respective carriages slowly drove into Fuyang City.

Two quarters of an hour later.

Xu Yi picked up the curtain and looked at the tall city wall not far away with an expressionless face.

Xu is because Fuyang City is the seat of Shanggu County.

Or maybe it's because Fuyang City is a border county.

In terms of the height of the city alone, Fuyang City is only half a chip weaker than Jinyang.

In terms of specifications, it is not much different from the previous Heijo.

After entering the city, Sun Daohua feasted Xu Yi on the grounds of catching the wind and washing the dust.

However, Xu Yi politely refused today's banquet on the grounds that the carriage and horses were tired.

Sun Daohua did not continue to insist when he heard this, and after the two exchanged greetings for a while, they immediately agreed to wash the dust for Xu Yi another day.

As soon as the agreement was made, the crowd dispersed again.

Under the sun, the two long dragons slowly ran in two completely different directions.

Sun Daohua took a group of officials to the Xicheng County Office.

And Xu Yi took a group of entourages and went to Dongcheng Yanwang's Mansion.

The first emperor of the ages who came out of Zongzheng Temple.
