"But it's not, I heard that General Wan is very fond of his daughter, and with such a daughter, what kind of war are you fighting!"

"yes...... I also heard ......"

“......”

Obviously, this kind of gossip is no longer to answer the question of Zhu'an, and it has gone in a strange direction, but it has become more and more enthusiastic, and the general Wan, whom he has never met, has repeatedly whipped countless times, which is really ridiculous, but he still heard a lot of information from their conversation.

In the eventful autumn, the Xiongnu countries made a comeback, the border friction in Wucheng continued, and the garrison did not even manage the rampant robbery of sand bandits.

Zhu'an all the way, from Fanzhou City to the Northwest Desert, more or less also captured some signs, all say that the temple is far away from the rivers and lakes, and there seems to be no connection between the two, but there are inextricable links in this world, the changes in the situation of the court will affect the forces of the rivers and lakes, the rise and fall of the rivers and lakes are so similar to the situation of the court, the connection between the two is closer than imagined, and even many of the forces above the court secretly benefit from the support of the family of the rivers and lakes, and the power is also promoting the rise of the family, which seems to go their own way but are inextricably linked。

In the time since he went down the mountain, no matter how much news he heard, he himself captured a lot of changes, such as the experience of Qin Sui, who was unjustly imprisoned in Linlang City, such as the trip to the Phantom Flower Palace.

Even if he has been living in seclusion before, he has seen many things more clearly, as far as the trip to the Phantom Flower Palace is concerned, although it can be understood that the treasure is indeed a huge temptation for people, but it is rare that the major families in the rivers and lakes will gather people to find it together, and the last time such a large-scale collective dispatch between the clans was to encircle and suppress the rampant unscrupulous and evil demon sect. Although the Phantom Flower Palace also has another name like the Phantom Demon Palace because of the mysterious existence of the Phantom Flower Divine Skill, the Phantom Flower Palace people rarely appear in front of the Jianghu people, their whereabouts are mysterious, and the location is a mystery, if they have to blame the siege of such an escaping martial arts force by the major martial arts families, it is because the Phantom Flower Palace is too far-fetched to do a lot of evil and cause trouble to the rivers and lakes, thinking about the reasons behind it, it is not difficult to find that in addition to the desire to find the Phantom Flower Treasure, there are other deep-seated reasons, that is, because the world has begun to turmoil.

The people of the rivers and lakes have a variety of ways to obtain the news, which city has something to do, which sect has what treasure, it can be spread throughout the entire rivers and lakes in less than a day, it is conceivable that the news of the smoke on the northwest border has also spread all over the world, although the border friction is really ordinary, but this time it is not reassuring.

Originally, the national strength of Chaoyue was strong, and the combat power of the army should not be underestimated, in the hands of General Huwei, the border pass was impregnable, no matter what war broke out, it would not take long to calm down, and even the army of the Xiongnu countries was directly driven back to their base camp. On the other hand, the fact that it has taken a year to quell the calamity committed by the foreign enemy is enough to disturb the people's minds and put everyone in danger! Even if there are no major problems at present, we must not take it lightly.

No matter when, strong can stand up, so the families of the rivers and lakes will form an alliance again,

Just to find the treasure of the phantom flower, the person who gets the treasure can greatly consolidate his own power, so that no matter whether it is a troubled era or a prosperous era, he can stand firmly, at least ensure that he will not be invaded by the troubled times and decay.

After all, if the dynasty is overthrown, the person who bears this terrible consequences is the ruler of the dynasty, whether it is the people or the families of the rivers and lakes, what needs to be faced is to change the emperor in the final analysis. The forces of the rivers and lakes are not working hard for the court, the change of dynasty has an impact on the forces of the rivers and lakes but is not fatal, as long as they can be alone in the torrent of troubled times, then, the treasure of the phantom flower is the best guarantee, so the trip to the phantom flower palace will make the heroes respond to the call, and the large and small families and sects are actively involved.

It is normal for people to be prepared for danger in times of peace.

The days are long, and the moon is full and waning.

The change of dynasties is inevitable and inevitable.

The things in this world are nothing more than the waxing and waning of the moon, even if the Chaoyue Kingdom has been standing still for hundreds of years, it cannot escape the fate of prosperity and decline.

At first glance, it is still a prosperous era of peace and well-being, but under this gorgeous and exquisite shell there is already an undercurrent surging and precarious.

Perhaps it is precisely because the Chaoyue Kingdom has spent too many years safely, internal and external troubles, that this prosperous era has begun to gradually decline. However, it is a crisis and an opportunity, and the country of Chaoyue will finally usher in a baptism, either it will be reborn stronger and stronger, and it will dominate one side, or the building will collapse and the ancient kingdom will be destroyed.

These are just objective analyses that stay out of the way.

He grew up in this land, how can he stay out of it?

○

It's just that before arriving in the northwest, he didn't expect that the situation had reached such a difficult situation.

As for why they fell into today's situation, on this point, Zhu An and Uncle He have different views.

The common people put all the blame on the general surnamed Wan, believing that the failure to fight with a group of Huns who had been defeated and fled was due to the lack of ability of General Wan.

However, a person's ability has always been limited, when General Wan first sat in the commander of the three armies, he also led the troops to defeat the Hun army, although it took a long time, compared with his father's iron and blood, there are indeed shortcomings, but each has its own strengths, there is really no need to compare, let alone say that this general has done nothing, so many years it is he who has worked hard to guard the border pass, in exchange for more than ten years of peace and prosperity.

However, the scorching war and the complaints of the people have exposed one of the biggest drawbacks.

The Asahuki Kingdom now has no available generals.

This is a fatal problem.

As the saying goes, only when the army is strong can the country be safe, only when the country is safe can the family be blessed, and only when the family is prosperous can the people live and work in peace and contentment, and if the army is strong, the general is the soul of the army.

However, in the past ten years, there has never been a general as famous as General Huwei in the past ten years, and he has been fighting with foreign enemies for so long, but he is still General Wan in charge, obviously not because General Wan is invincible, but because no one is available, this is the crux of the problem!

This is the same as the country of the moon in recent years

Wen Qingwu has a lot to do with it.

Unlike the southern country, where everyone is martial, Chaoyue encourages young people to study and enter the military, resulting in a normal state in which the status of civil officials is higher than that of military officials.

The increase in civilian officials is of great benefit to the governance of the country, but it also makes the military attachés more and more declining, and once war breaks out, this hidden drawback will surface, and they will face an embarrassing situation of having no generals to use.

Although the martial arts of the rivers and lakes are as masters as clouds, most of the martial arts people are self-cultivated and profound, which is not the same as the generals who are proficient in the art of war and can lead the troops to fight.

In peacetime, this drawback is not inconspicuous, but now that Wucheng is facing a war, even the sand bandits who are doing evil can't get out of their way to deal with it, which shows the depth of the problem, which is tantamount to a thorn in the back.

As he listened, he was still confused.

These people have lived in the northwest for generations, which is the closest to Wucheng, and he originally thought that after coming to the northwest, he would find out different answers, but the cause of his father's death in their mouths was no different from what they heard in the Central Plains - General Huwei died on the battlefield and died heroically, it is clear that this is not the case, why is everyone insisting that his father died on the battlefield?

There must be something strange in this.

As it seems now, unless you find someone who knew about the year, it will be difficult to make new progress.

If you want to say the words of those in the know, he has two candidates in his heart. First, General Wan. After his father's death, it was this General Wan who took over the post of commander-in-chief of the three armies, and he must have known the reason, even if he didn't know the whole picture, he would definitely not be able to get out of it. Second, the leader of the sand bandits who only had a one-sided relationship in the daytime. This person's identity must be unusual, he is clearly a martial artist but is willing to be a bandit in this desert, which is really confusing, and the long saber in his hand is also a concern, today's situation is special, even if he feels suspicious, he must not be able to ask anything when he immediately asks, saying that he has something to do with this matter, it is just a guess, he has to find a time to meet that person to finalize, but it is likely that his hope will be disappointed.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground from the room, accompanied by a very suppressed scream...... It seems that he deliberately lowered his voice, for fear of attracting the attention of others.

Zhu'an squeezed out of the chatting crowd, ran into the house quickly, and was startled.

Weaving Dream fell to the ground, with a thick stone slab pressed on her body, and the two children surrounded her, anxiously to help her, but the two children were too weak to move the stone slab that pressed Weaving Dream.

"Ameng?"
