Chapter 3 Establishing Himself as King
Seeing that Guo Xuan solved his two subordinates so easily.
These two subordinates are masters of the innate realm, and above the innate realm, they are the martial arts sect.
Xing Fan himself was also a martial artist, and he didn't have the confidence to be able to defeat these two of his subordinates in such a quick time.
Not to mention, it was killed directly.
Guo Xuan's shot not only opened Xing Fan's eyes, but also Zhong Yang.
He can also be regarded as a person who watched Guo Xuan grow up, two years ago, when Guo Xuan went to Junshan, he had just stepped into the innate realm.
In two years, he actually reached the realm of Martial Sect from the innate one.
Although Zhong Yang couldn't see Guo Xuan's realm, he was sure that he was stronger than himself.
Zhong Yang can also rest assured at this time and let Guo Xuan handle this matter by himself.
Otherwise, he would have to do it.
After all, no matter what, he couldn't let Guo Xuan get hurt.
At this time, Xing Fan also drew out the long sword hanging on the horse's back, he turned over and dismounted, used his true qi, and stared at Guo Xuan.
The next moment, he swung his sword and slashed.
This swordsmanship practiced by Xing Fan, Guo Xuan just glanced at it, and he understood the origin of this swordsmanship.
In the Southern Tang Dynasty, among the mundane, there were nine swordsmanship inheritances.
And these nine families, Guo Tai visited them all before he became an official.
Therefore, Guo Tai is very clear about these nine swordsmanship.
He didn't just understand these nine swordsmanship, but even integrated them.
The swordsmanship he created is the culmination of these nine schools.
And Guo Xuan's swordsmanship learned from his father, so he naturally also understood the swordsmanship of these nine families.
In the same way, also understand the advantages and disadvantages of these nine swordsmanship.
Guo Xuan rushed forward, only to see the sword shadow heavy, and every blow could be directed at the flaw in Xing Fan's swordsmanship.
Xing Fan can only keep defending, but after a series of defenses, there will be times when he can't make up for this flaw.
After holding on for more than a dozen rounds, Guo Xuan picked Xing Fan's sword into the air.
The sword stabbed at Xing Fan's throat.
He just didn't have any armor in this place, but that was enough.
"Don't ...... Don't kill ......"
Before Xing Fan finished speaking, he was stabbed through the throat by Guo Xuan's sword.
Blood spurted out, and Xing Fan fell straight to the ground.
Soon blood was pouring all over the ground.
Seeing this situation, those who followed Xing Fan should not be stupid.
One by one, they hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed to Guo Xuan and said, "Son, spare your life, we were just forced to come with Xing Fan." ”
"Forced?" Guo Xuan glanced at everyone with disdain.
The arrogant expressions of these people before were not something that a forced person could have.
For the remaining ten people, Guo Xuan didn't have any extra words, and directly swung his sword to send them on the road.
After he dealt with these ten people, he shook off the blood on the sword and returned the sword to Cai Heng.
"My father was the Southern Tang Dynasty and worked hard for Li Jingyan for more than ten years, but now he ended up being harmed by the traitorous minister. What is the use of keeping this dim court? I want to stand on my own feet in Yanyun, destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty and Northern Liang, and recreate the old mountains and rivers. Would you like to help me? Guo Xuan then asked everyone at this time.
Although most of these people were followers of his father, most of them could be trusted.
But what he wants to do is to rebel after all, and he has to show his strength to rebel.
He had just slashed Xing Fan and the others with a sword, and he showed his strength.
"I followed the generalissimo before I waited for the purpose of returning to the north, and the generalissimo ordered me to form the northward return army, and its intention is here. Instead of supporting it, the imperial court stopped us three times and twice. Now it is the persecution of the generalissimo, since the court does not support it, then we are willing to follow the son, develop here, seek the north from the south, and unify the world. ”
The first to express his stance was Zhong Yang.
Zhong Yang is the most prestigious among the generals, and everyone responded to his statement.
In the next three days, Guo Xuan dealt with his father's funeral in the city.
On the fourth day, he officially took over military power.
Yan Yun originally had an army of 300,000 and confronted Beiliang.
However, while persecuting Guo Tai, the imperial court ordered someone to transfer Yanyun City's army.
Those who are not directly related to Guo Tai have been transferred.
Only 30,000 returned troops from the north, 30,000 rebels who returned to Guo Tai after the Southern Tang Uprising, and 20,000 regular troops.
A total of 80,000 people.
And after Guo Xuan took over the 80,000 troops, it was impossible to be the emperor, after all, the territory under the jurisdiction of Yanyun City was only a county.
Still, it's okay to be king.
After all, they don't plan to listen to the imperial court, and it is naturally best to command the three armies if they set themselves up as kings.
Because it is in the land of Yanyun, he calls himself King Yan.
After taking over military power, Guo Xuan immediately received two messages.
[Complete the mission: Take control of the military power 1 and get 100 points.] 】
[Complete the mission: Take control of the military power II and get 200 points.] 】
The previous task was only one, and now two tasks have been completed.
But based on this control of military power one or two, Guo Xuan quickly had a guess.
He then silently clicked on the system to check, only to see that on the system, there was indeed a task to control the third military power.
System: Imperial system
Host: Guo Xuan
Strength: Wuzong Fivefold
Credits: 300
Task:
Control of military power III: Have 100,000 troops, and the loyalty reaches 80% and above, reward points 500, and a royal flag.
Retreat: Resist the invasion of Beiliang three times, reward points of 500, and 1,000 white horses.
Logistics: Solve the problem of food supply, reward points 300, and plough 500 cattle.
Public security: Solve the arrogant and domineering three major families in the land of Yanyun, reward points of 500, and a Youlan jade seal.
……
In the task bar, there are not only three more tasks in control of military power, but also three more tasks at once.
Looking at these three tasks, Guo Xuan felt that the easiest to complete had to be the last two.
The task of retreating from the enemy has to be invaded by Beiliang.
It's not something he can control.
As for the problem of food supply, the super rice seeds he obtained before can be solved.
Moreover, it is planting season.
There's also the issue of law and order, which is much easier.
The three major families are nobles, and their hearts are also with the court.
There was Guo Tai before, and they didn't dare to oppress the people.
But now that Guo Tai has been killed, it is not surprising that they dare to come out and publicize it.
It just so happened that Guo Xuan could serve them in one pot.
It just so happened that many of the cultivated fields in the land of Yanyun were in the hands of these three families.
After solving these three families, some of them can be distributed to the people in the military tuntian, and part of them can be distributed to the people.
After deciding, Guo Xuan immediately ordered someone to investigate the affairs of the three major families, and at the same time, asked Xun Huai'an, who managed logistics, to come over.
Not long after, Xun Huai'an arrived.
"Lord!" Xun Huai'an came in and bowed.
"Lord Xun, please take a seat, I invited you to come over because I want to ask about logistics. How much food is left for the army today? Guo Xuan asked.
"Lord, this is not optimistic, you don't look for me, I plan to talk to you about it. Military rations are enough for two years at most, while Yanyun's grain production is extremely low and he is not self-sufficient at all. The people of Yanyun Land can barely guarantee their own food and clothing when they grow grain, and they can't pay taxes at all, and once they are forcibly taxed, they are afraid that they will starve and die in the wild. Xun Huai'an said with a sad face.
"Two years? That's enough time. Guo Xuan said confidently.
