They are undoubtedly a group of people who will rise in the midst of this great change.

Liu Xin and the Tiger Sukhbaru fought bitterly for hundreds of rounds.

Liu Xin relied on the powerful exercises and the internal force support provided by the star change.

Now, Liuxin's star transformation has been completed. It can provide double the cultivation speed at night, and even during the day, it can bring him a part of the cultivation speed.

And above his dantian, the cluster of stars was also several times larger than before.

Today's cluster of stars is like a starry sky on Liuxin's dantian.

It provides him with a steady stream of powerful internal force all the time.

And the total amount of internal force contained in this cluster of stars is several times the total amount of internal force in his dantian!

This is equivalent to Liu Xin's combat endurance several times higher.

He doesn't have to worry about the consumption of his internal strength at all.

He fought for hundreds of rounds under the powerful onslaught of the Tiger Sukhbaru.

You must know that the Tiger Sukhbaru is a real master of the top-grade Dacheng Realm!

And Liu Xin did not lose in the end, which shocked the tiger Sukhbaru.

also let the fifth uncle escape with the golden retriever devil.

And the male lion Arislan blindly tracked the fifth uncle for a long time under such circumstances, but did not find his whereabouts.

This made Arislan very angry.

But he was helpless, and when he came back, Liu Xin had already gotten rid of the tiger Sukhbaru.

The two originally planned to use one to keep at least one of the other.

That is, the tiger Sukhbaru left Liu Xin behind.

In this way, even if Arislan can't catch up with the fifth uncle, they can at least leave one person behind.

These two young people are very strong, and they must be Zhengyang's characters with a certain identity.

But now neither of them remained.

The most important thing is that they didn't even leave a clue.

For this young man who appeared in Zhengyang, whether it is the tiger Sukhbaru or the lion Azhislan.

I was very shocked in my heart.

There is no such young master on the grassland.

It can be said that there is no one among the three major tribes, and the strength has been broken.

In today's grassland, it seems that all the young masters have appeared in the tribe of the Red Blood Prince.

The fox prince is now seriously ill.

After seeing the three major tribes so unbearable, his heart also changed a little.

Just like himself, the three major tribes have also reached the point of surviving.

And yet like the Red Blood Prince.

He represents the fresh blood of the grassland.

I heard that the red-blooded prince has found a steppe lifeline from the East China Sea.

Even the tribe of the Red Blood Prince is the poorest place in the entire steppe.

They are still able to guarantee their self-sufficiency.

Even the standard of living is much better than that of the three major tribes.

And the escape of the small tribes of the three major tribes before was actually related to his plan.

The Fox Prince had even instructed the Iron Prince that if he died, he would have to surrender to the Red Blood Prince with his entire tribe.

And because the Fire Prince broke through a border pass, and at the same time did not cause much damage.

Among the three major tribes, his prestige suddenly surpassed that of the fox prince, who was now in a coma and occupied most of his time.

Even the big and small princes who had already taken refuge in the fox prince fell to the fire prince at this time.

Because the fox prince thought that such a victory was simply stupid.

But the great and small princes also thought that such a victory would boost the morale of their army.

Even despite opposition, he worked out a strategy with the Fire Prince to continue attacking the border passes.

The Fire Prince is also a general who reads through military books.

He knew that his previous actions would definitely make the other party guarded, so now he was very fast.

He immediately contacted the eldest prince and the youngest prince, and worked out a strategy for attacking the border pass together overnight.

The three of them can be described as full of ambition.

And at this moment, Liu Xin and the fifth uncle appeared and disrupted their plans.

Liu Xin directly captured the weapon master in the hands of the Fire Prince.

That is, that Westerner.

Without his guidance, the Fire Prince was not half sure about how to refine those powerful firearms.

Therefore, he could only send the strongest warriors to capture those two hateful Zhengyang people.

But it turned out to be a failure.

This caused a direct delay in his offensive strategy.

Not only that, but after a month.

When he prepared everything and sent troops again, Zhengyang Border Pass had already been prepared.

The Fire Prince and the Great and Small Princes suffered great losses in this battle.

Not only did they not break the border, but even all the offensives were directly blocked.

The powerful firearms were hit by the accurate musketeers on the walls before they could get close to the city gates.

And it caused an explosion.

The explosion occurred in the crowd, and the eldest prince was brave and good at fighting, always rushing to the front.

As a result, he was engulfed by an explosion and was seriously injured on the spot.

Without saying a word, the little prince took the eldest prince back to his own territory.

Then there was a secret correspondence with the fox prince.

Having lost the eldest prince, the little prince's force did not have an advantage among the top ten masters.

This failure also made him see one thing clearly.

There is only one person in the entire grassland, and that is the fox prince who has fallen into a coma from time to time.

But the fox prince's reply made the little prince very unwilling.

Because the fox prince asked the little prince to surrender to the red-blooded prince with his tribe.

But at this time, a few blondes came to the tribe of the little prince and cured the eldest prince with a miraculous medicine.

At least the eldest prince recovered his spirits and his injuries improved.

The little prince saw the possibility of the eldest prince being cured, and his heart became scornful of the fox prince again.

And with the help of the Westerners, the Fire Prince once again created that powerful firearm.

At the same time, they began to launch a fierce attack on the border gates of Zhengyang.

And this time, there were precision tools brought by Westerners, and those powerful firearms were directly thrown onto the walls of Zhengyang.

A huge war broke out between the two sides.

The Zhengyang side also arranged several red-coated cannons on the city wall, and the two sides fought hotly, and the artillery fire was continuous, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the entire sky.

The battle ended in victory for the Fire Prince.

The Fire Prince has shaken off his previous decadence and regained his self-confidence.

The previous defeat was not that his firearms were not strong enough, but that there were some problems with the use of them.

Nowadays, the Westerners have brought powerful siege equipment, and he can bomb the border passes of Zhengyang.

That's right, it's bombing!

The word bombing was also taught to him by the Westerners.

As long as there is enough firepower to cover, it is enough to destroy all the cities of Zhengyang.

Make their so-called fortified walls a ridiculous, stupid joke!

In the following period, the Fire Prince repeatedly blasted through several border cities.

This made his self-confidence extremely strong.

But there's also a big problem that is buried, waiting to erupt at some point.

At this time, the Fire Prince did not find that everything was in Wu Guogong's calculations.

You must know that what Wu Guogong is best at is defending and counterattacking.

Liu Xin went deep into the grassland, and in addition to capturing a Westerner, he also found out one thing clearly.

There weren't that many firearms in the Fire Prince's tribe.

The number of firearms possessed by the Fire Prince was drastically reduced after being made into such powerful explosives.

In the past, the Fire Prince also had a musket team of 5,000 men.

Able to continue operations for a long time.

But now, all of these muskets have been converted into those powerful explosives.

At full risk, the Fire Prince now has no more than a thousand of these explosives.

Generally speaking, a few dozen or hundreds are enough to break down a city.

However, Wu Guogong spent a lot of manpower and material resources to strengthen the gates and walls of these cities.

In order for the Fire Prince to blow up these cities, a lot of gunpowder is needed!

This number has even doubled!

The bombed-out gates and walls were nothing but charred stone and wood.

If you look at it at a cursory, you can't tell if it has been reinforced.

The rough nature of the steppe people also means that they don't care about these things.

And that damn Westerner found out about this, but they didn't think it deeply.

He didn't have the energy to think for the stupid steppe people in their hearts.

As a result, the fire prince's gunpowder was consumed very quickly.

In the end, he suddenly realized that if he continued like this, he would not be able to complete the battle plan he had formulated at all.

He was originally going to tear a big mouth at the Zhengyang border pass.

At least seven or eight border gates must be torn apart.

Let this gap widen to tens of miles.

In this way, the grassland people can freely enter the land of Zhengyang.

But he's only halfway there.

Moreover, after that, he did not find gunpowder for his use in these border gates as he had previously expected.

Originally, he expected that after these borders were broken, at least some gunpowder could be found in them to make up for his losses.

Make his combat endurance stronger.

But it turned out to be nothing.

Even when the border pass where the red-clothed cannons were located was broken by him, the Zhengyang people directly blew up the red-clothed cannons, which made the Fire Prince feel sorry.

It wasn't until the moment he ran out of explosives that he realized that he had breached so many border cities.

But he didn't catch a single captive of Zhengyang.

It didn't even cause too many casualties to the Zhengyang military.

The mode of battle between the two sides is like the reckless pouring of gunpowder on the city walls of the border gates and cities by the prince of fire.

smashed the gates of the other party's city to pieces.

Then the steppe people used their best side horses to gallop and attack inside.

But they found out only after the attack.

The Zhengyang people inside had already fled.

As for the reason why they want to escape, the steppe people take it for granted.

In the battles between the Northern Barbarians and Zhengyang, in most cases, the Northern Barbarian cavalry steppe people had a natural advantage.

The Zhengyang people rarely dared to compete with them in the steppe cavalry.

Except, of course, Qin Guogong.

The grassland people unanimously believe that Qin Guogong is a pervert.

obviously has such a strong strength, but he is a Zhengyang person.

This simply doesn't make sense!

A man as brave and strong as him can still train a powerful cavalry.

Such genes should belong to the grassland.

Because of the inability to succeed, the Fire Prince could only send troops to garrison these breached border cities.

He was going to wait to find a new source of gunpowder from the steppe to make that powerful gunpowder.

Otherwise, the tactics he has just excelled at and invincible will not be able to continue.

But he didn't think about when the Northern Barbarians were good at garrisoning cities...

The Fire Prince has not yet waited for the gunpowder to be mined.

But waited for the death of the fox prince.

In the next half month, the grassland was plain.

In Liu Xin's memory.

When Zhengyang completely counterattacked, the fox prince had just died.

That was nearly a decade later.

But in reality, the fox prince died of illness ten years ahead of schedule.

Maybe it's because it's in Liu Xin's memory.

The Northern Barbarian Grassland does not seem to have shown a tendency to be defeated so early.

For the fox prince, whether the Northern Barbarians survive or not, the survival of the three major tribes has a great relationship with his lifespan.

It can be said that the situation of the three major tribes of the Northern Barbarians is good.

The fox prince will have a breath in his heart that will be held there all the time.

Help him stay alive, even ten years longer than he is now.

And the biggest difference between it and Liu Xin's memory now is that the three major tribes have revealed the situation of defeat in advance.

And in this situation, the fox prince is powerless at all.

When he truly lost faith in the three tribes in his heart, he no longer had that breath to hang his life.

Maybe that's the right solution.

Liu Xin thought so when he heard the news.

And falling into the ears of the emperor represents a perfect time that has never been greater.

The three major tribes and even the entire grassland are extremely hostile to Zhengyang.

This hostility is the hatred that has been imprinted in the bones of the two sides for hundreds of years.

And now the emperor saw that he could take down the whole steppe.

How could he ignore this great opportunity!

So, after receiving the news, he gathered many ministers all night to discuss together.

And now the situation of Zhengyang is incomparably good.

Naturally, many ministers would agree to the current emperor's proposal for the Northern Expedition.

Liu Xin also sighed in his heart when he heard the news.

If it weren't for the extra memory.

Liu Xin may not have such feelings.

Because in his memory, his last Northern Expedition was with the seriously ill emperor.

That is, Emperor Xuyang ten years later.

And at that time.

Emperor Xuyang's life is like the current fox prince has come to an end.

Like the fox prince, he also wants to accomplish the ending that his ancestors have been looking forward to in the last moments of his life.

Liu Xin even thought of if he really let Emperor Xuyang finish it.

What he had been hoping for in his heart was whether he would live longer than he remembered.

Ten years from now, will he still be able to fight the enemy on the battlefield?

Emperor Xuyang did not practice any martial arts in Liu Xin's knowledge, and he was able to live to that age ten years later.

In fact, it can be regarded as the normal lifespan of ordinary people like them.

You must know that although the emperor has the best imperial physician to organize his daily meals.

The food is also delicacies from the mountains and seas, and the hundred-year-old ginseng used by ordinary people to hang their lives may be just something used to make tea and gargle in front of the emperor.

There are also countless capable people who have solved his physical ailments.

There are masters who cross into the internal force for him every day and clear the meridians.

But the mental energy he consumes every day is unimaginable to ordinary people.

So he actually ages much faster than ordinary people.

Not to mention that the first half of Emperor Xuyang's life was actually spent in danger.

Kowloon wins!

During that time, the assassination of Emperor Xuyang was extremely normal for him.

Many times he got away with life and death. 、

After all, he left a lot of scars on his body.

In the final analysis, these injuries may have hit an ordinary person's vitality hard.

But the emperor is different, and there is a panacea to repair his body, and capable people help him recuperate.

This is what makes him look like an ordinary person when he is young.

But as he gets older, the dark wounds in his body will actually slowly recover.

To sum up, Liu Xin thinks that Emperor Xuyang may be able to solve the great problem of Beiban.

His physical function must be much better than he remembers.

Unfortunately, the crisis that the country is facing now seems likely to erupt sooner.

He had seen the message from the covert investigation team.

Whether it was the gunpowder explosives used by the Northern Barbarians this time.

and the generals of Shu State, ready to rush out of the border of Bashu at any time.

There are Westerners behind this.

It seems that the Westerners are making a comeback!

And judging by the information obtained so far.

This time the leader of the Westerners was still the same one named Gaius. Prince of the West of Gust.

He was like one of the more prominent princes of that country.

Before the envoy Zhengyang, the head of the envoy group was also him.

He is now at the command of an unknown number of Western armies.

And whether it is from the Dongchang Jinyi Guards or from the intelligence transmitted back by the secret investigation team.

This Western army is very powerful.

Because even the major intelligence organizations have not been able to get many useful clues in their hands.

This actually means that there are not many loopholes in this army.

Because only a strong army can protect its army like an iron bucket, and prevent outside intelligence organizations from probing the truth in it.

But just from some intelligence on the periphery, the strength of this army can already be seen.

The Duke of Shu prepared the most powerful war horse in the land of Bashu for them.

Hanzhong was originally one of the military horse farms.

It was only after he owned the military horse farm that the Duke of Shu had the courage to provoke Zhengyang.

This is his confidence!

The horses used by the armies of the Westerners are all the largest and most capable of carrying heavy loads.

This means that the armor or size of this group of Westerners will be very heavy.

Otherwise, there would be no need for such a war horse with an extremely good weight-bearing capacity.

In addition, the covert investigation team also secretly stole fragments of armor from the Westerners' barracks.

This is the wear and tear that they experience on a daily basis during training.

And by comparing the armor worn by these Westerners, its material is even stronger than Zhengyang's current top military standard armor!

The hardness and defense of the armor are even comparable to the best of the imperial level!

You know, if this fragment was obtained from these ordinary soldiers of the Western army.

This means that their soldiers may be wearing a full set of Imperial armor and weapons.

This is definitely not good news for Zhengyang!

Because the opponent's weapons and equipment are much stronger than Zhengyang.

When Zhengyang's soldiers faced them, once they were close to each other, they would not have any advantage at all.

And when this news reached the mouth of the emperor.

But it became a different scene.

The emperor ordered the Ministry of Industry to raise the hardness and strength of the existing armor and weapons in the army by a notch no matter what method was used.

Emperor Xuyang's exact words were: "It is absolutely not allowed to have a situation where the armor and weapons worn by my soldiers are far inferior to those of the enemy!" ”

And the forging method of forging metal that Liu Xin offered before.

It has also become the best way to improve the armor and weapons on the soldiers.

Liu Xin got a big credit for this!

This news was also transmitted to Roselle Mountain Villa through a secret intelligence line.

When a young man saw this information, a strange expression appeared on his usually plain face.

"Liu Xin! How did you come to know about this art of blacksmithing? ”

Although there is a new art of blacksmithing.

But that doesn't mean the whole army will have time to replace them with the latest armor.

Because forging and reinforcement is also an extremely long process.

Now there's more to worry about.

Domestically, the Duke of Shu led the Westerners to prepare to break through and disintegrate Zhengyang from the inside.

And externally, Beiban is also a big problem.

The enemy that the current Emperor Xuyang urgently wants to solve is undoubtedly the Northern Barbarians.

Whether in terms of the severity of the old feud or the familiarity with the enemy, the Northern Barbarians are the best opponents.

You can also take this opportunity to train the soldiers.

Therefore, although Zhengyang now looks like the national strength and military strength are much better than before.

It can be said that it is in the heyday of national strength.

But we are still facing an extremely serious situation.

Even judging from the various measures taken by Westerners now, they have bad intentions, and they may even develop to the point of not dying.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the two countries to go to war as soon as they came up.

Even if there is a grudge between the two great powers, the first step will definitely be a negotiation process.

But now there is no such process.

At this time, Liu Xin, who had completed the grassland task perfectly, received a new order.

He will go to the Bashu border for the next period of time.

It is best to be able to go deep into Bashu and understand the situation of the army of Shu.

It would be better to be able to find out the details of the Westerners' army.

And this time, the emperor sent many elite soldiers.

It's not just the brocade commander who makes Liu Xin.

It also includes some masters in the Dongchang and pro-army and forbidden army.

And not long after Liu Xin set off.

There is another big event in Zhengyang.

In the middle of the rivers and lakes, a great war broke out between the Holy Sect and the Evil Sect.

The two major sects, one positive and one demon, suddenly broke out into war at this time!

This is something that no one can imagine.

The means laid out by the Holy Sect in many places were launched together, and before the evil sect had time to fight back, it was directly suppressed.

There seems to be a shadow of Emperor Wu City behind this.

But Emperor Wu City undoubtedly helped the Holy Sect.

Therefore, the evil sect has a hard time coping.

On Tianyun Peak, the evil gate was directly attacked.

A group of masters, including the master of the evil sect, scattered all over the rivers and lakes, and turned into pieces.
