Chapter 218: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell

Daduan and Beiyuan, two huge neighbors, naturally have a very wide border.

But according to the setting of the Beiyuan Imperial Court, it is only the land of four states.

The four prefectures of Hujiao, Jinxiong, Ansai, and Jingnan are lined up from west to east on the border between the two countries.

Beiyuan takes Changsheng City as the center, and sets up thirteen Jiazi prefectures to dominate the vast territory, and the Jiazi prefecture has set up a section to make the military and political power over, and the weight of authority is not much better than that of a vassal king in Daduan.

Under the first state, the head is set up under the military state, city, and county, and the three levels of management.

In the entire Beiyuan, there are only more than 200 military states under the head, and it can also be seen from this that Ma Qi, who holds twelve military states under the head, is so powerful.

For example, Xiongzhou, opposite Yinyang Pass, is a military state under the head of Ansai Prefecture.

Helian Qingshan sat quietly at the head of the city of Xiongzhou, watching the hustle and bustle of Yinyang Pass gradually decrease and the beacon fire gradually disappeared.

As the only person in the Beiyuan military who could see Xue Zheng's back from afar in prestige, Helian Qingshan was naturally sent to the front line of Yanyang Pass by Yuan Emperor Xue Lu at the first time to defend the strategic advantage that Xue Zheng had exchanged for his life.

It is said that the commander-in-chief does not sit on the front line of the war, but controls it remotely in the rear, which inevitably gives people a sense of cowardice and fear of war.

But at this moment, no one in the Beiyuan officers and soldiers in the Yanyang Pass will have any such thoughts.

Just because it was Helian Qingshan.

It was Helian Qingshan, who had 300 horsemen who raided the 30,000 troops of the Bohai Kingdom and took the head of the King of Bohai among the 10,000 troops;

It was the Helian Qingshan who led 5,000 cavalry, fought 600 miles, penetrated deep into the enemy's belly, cut down the grass and eradicated the army of the Western Regions powerful countries that dared to invade the Northern Abyss, and built the "Skull Platform" at the first level;

It was Xue Lu who once personally praised "If the Qingcong rises, the Bohai Sea will be flat, the troops will be safe in the Western Regions, and the enemy will be stationed in Beijing." "The Beiyuan Wuwei Hou, Helian Qingshan.

What's more critical is that on the heavenly list released a few months ago, the tenth person, the lower grade of the Hedao realm, Beiyuan Helian Qingshan.

He spoke softly, "Substitution, and then half of the newcomers." ”

The guards beside him wanted to speak and stopped, but they still responded with their fists.

Helian Qingshan was unconscious, only looking at the Yinyang Pass from afar, as if he wanted to penetrate this Xiongguan in the world and go to the legendary splendid Southern Dynasty.

As for the thoughts of the Yuan Emperor who had been dormant for many years, these guards did not understand, but he knew very well.

What he wants is not just to plunder his horses, but to dominate the rivers and mountains.

But the Southern Dynasty did not have a wide and flat grassland like the Northern Abyss for this million-strong man to gallop and fight.

Narrow roads will trap horses' hooves, cities will stop charges, and strong fortresses will make cavalry and scimitars weak, and they will not learn to attack and defend the city.

"General!" a guard hurried up the wall, still holding a piece of information in his hand.

Helian Qingshan stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and looked at it, and immediately fell into deep thought.

Xue Zhen returned to China, the palace gate was humiliated, and after entering the palace, he was canonized Prince Jing with a fief of 800 miles.

Helian Qingshan easily grasped this key information from a long line of information.

The tigers were about to come out of the mountains, fearing that the wolves and bears might rebel, so they instigated the leopards to fight them.

A guess gradually welled up in his mind

Since then, Emperor Yuan is going to drive the royal expedition.

I didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

His gaze was fixed on a place under the Dead Sun Pass, where Xue Zheng had died.

Lord Warlord, people are going to die, a lot of people are going to die!

But aren't those of us who are soldiers here for this?

The wind blew across the plains, kicking up the smoke and dust, and then gradually subsided.

Just like in this world, the end of the hustle and bustle is tranquility, and the hustle and bustle must brew in the tranquility.

------------------------------

In the Immortal City, countless pairs of eyes were gloating and quietly staring at the newly hung Jingwang Mansion.

Just as no one thought that Pei Zhen would be able to snatch the position of the first prince of the royal family, no one could have thought that on the second day after Pei Zhen was crowned king, he would offend Xue Yong, the head of the royal family who was closest to him in the Immortal City.

Sure enough, His Royal Highness King Jing, who had just returned from the palace, didn't have time to take a breath, so he hurried to Xue Yong's mansion.

I didn't even sit in a carriage, but it seems that there is no carriage in King Jing's mansion, right?

Thinking of this, those with bad intentions are even happier.

Then a piece of news came that made these happy even happier.

King Jing ate the closed door.

Xue Yong directly ordered someone to close the door, and King Ren Jing waited for a long time, but he still didn't even let him step through the door of the mansion!

Pei Zhen returned to the mansion dejectedly, and when Cui Xian led a large group of hired subordinates back to the mansion, and as soon as he settled down a little, he immediately called him together and went out of the city.

A group of four people, Pei Zhen, Cui Xian, Chi Xuance, and Fu Tianqi rushed towards the outside of the city in a panic.

While the people who were secretly observing were wondering, a conversation in the Hall of Eternal Life in the morning was spread to everyone for some reason.

One hand accumulates wealth, insatiable greed, and the other hand is afraid of death, cowardly as a mouse.

A look of disdain appeared on the faces of many people, how could the great general Xue Zheng I fall in love with such a good person.

Cowardly Xue Wei, Emperor Yuan's personal guard.

Those who are not skilled in archers and horses and strong in combat are not allowed to enter, and those who are not loyal and innocent are not allowed to enter.

Cowardly Xue Wei is extremely strong, and loyal to Emperor Yuan, Emperor Yuan almost never allocates Cowardly Xue Wei to others, in the past hundred years, many times the prince has been a vassal, at most there are only five hundred, most of them are only one or two hundred.

Therefore, in Pei Zhen's edict to the king, what really shocked the top magnates in Beiyuan was the thousand cowardly Xue Wei given to Pei Zhen.

In the eyes of many people, this thousand cowardly Xue Wei is Pei Zhen's real talisman.

Not far from the east gate of Immortal City is the long-term residence of 15,000 cowardly Xue Wei.

These fifteen thousand cowardly Xue Wei were divided into three branches, which were directly led by the three absolute descendants of the Yuan Emperor, and the position of the leader remained hereditary for hundreds of years.

Therefore, it is also known as cowardly Xue Sanwei.

Today's three commanders are: Li Hua, the chief of the left guard, Wen Chi, the chief of the central guard, and Hu Yanbo, the chief of the right guard.

The three people are on duty, and every half month, there are 5,000 cowardly Xue Wei on duty in the palace, and the other two guards stick to the camp in case of accidents.

Hence the number of people in the camp

It is basically stable at 10,000.

As soon as Pei Zhen and the other four approached the camp, they heard the noise of horses' hooves in the camp and the sound of bowstrings, obviously performing martial arts.

Dismounted at the gate of the camp, Pei Zhen took the lead and bowed his hand to the sentry on duty, "I'm tired of informing General Li and General Wen, and Xue Zhen asks to see him." ”

He had already inquired, this half month was Hu Yanbo who led the right guard to be in charge of the palace ban, and at this moment there were only Li Hua and Wen Chi in the camp.

The background of Sergeant Xue Wei is not low, at least they are more than 100 families, so they are naturally not unfamiliar with the name Xue Zhen.

He saluted at once, and then turned and rushed into the camp.

In the camp, Li Hua and Wen Chi were sitting on the stage of the martial arts arena and watching the cavalry march in the field.

Cowardly Xue Wei's bravery, the first is riding and shooting.

The most powerful cowardly Xue Wei can instantly adjust the direction on the back of a galloping horse and shoot at a target anywhere within the range.

When the sentry came to report, Wen Chi subconsciously wanted to get up to greet him, but Li Hua unexpectedly grabbed his hand and shook his head slightly.

Wen Chi's expression changed, and he wanted to say something, but Li Hua waved his hand at the sentry first, "Got it, take His Royal Highness King Jing to the camp to rest." ”

Waiting for the sentry to walk away, Wen Chi looked at Li Hua and said suspiciously: "Lao Li, you are not that kind of person!"

Li Hua pressed Wen Chi's thick shoulders and said with a smile: "It's good that you know that I'm not that kind of person, how about listening to me this time?"

"Do you seem to be asking me?" Wen Chi said angrily, turning back to sit down in his chair.

There's no way, who doesn't let his brain turn as fast as Li Hua.

Li Hua beckoned to a sergeant below, "Go and call Yelu Jincai." ”

Not long after, a young man in light armor rushed to Li Hua and Wen Chi.

The grassland is good at riding and shooting, so there are few people wearing heavy armor, and most of them only use a small amount of armor to protect the vital points, and this Yelu Jincai is no exception.

After he saluted Li Hua and Wen Chi, Li Hua seemed to smile, "His Royal Highness King Jing has come down." ”

The doubts in Yelu Jincai's eyes flashed, and he immediately remembered who King Jing was, and then his expression quickly became gloomy.

"Why? or unwilling?" Li Hua smiled.

Yelu Jin was silent for a while, and finally nodded.

Li Hua smiled and stood up, and then unexpectedly reached out with a lightning kick and kicked Yelu Jincai in the chest, and Yelu Jincai was kicked to the ground defenselessly.

The surroundings fell silent for a moment, so Li Hua's voice could be heard clearly, "When will it be your turn to say whether you are willing or not?" What is the number one thing for us to be cowardly Xue Wei, is loyalty! Is it His Majesty Emperor Yuan's pointing to where to fight! If you are fucking and let you die, you have to do everything you can to kill yourself! Pick fat and thin, you should fucking choose a girl on Red Tent Street!"

After scolding this paragraph, Li Hua looked at the middle of the field and snorted coldly, "Is it lively and beautiful?"

The horses in the field were suddenly suffering, and there was a neat scream, and the smoke and dust that had not yet completely fallen drifted again.

Yelu Jincai turned over and knelt on the ground, "General Li has learned a lesson! ”

Li Hua leaned down and leaned close to Yelu Jincai's ear, "Old."

No matter what you think in your heart, since Emperor Yuan let you follow the four princes, then you only need to do a little bit to the four princes, what is it?"

Yelu Jin tentatively spoke, "Obedience?"

"Louder!"

"Obedience!"

"Get out of here with your guys!"

Wen Chi didn't say a word from beginning to end, and it wasn't until Yelu Jin got up to say goodbye that he looked at Li Hua, "Yelu Jin is also a talent, don't beat a few more words?"

Li Hua smiled mysteriously, Wen Chi pursed his mouth, and had a headache, "So it's mysterious!"

Li Hua squinted at the smoke and dust in the field, the four princes raised by the military god single-handedly, the four princes who can be called cultivation geniuses in the four realms in a year, why would you be looked down upon by an ordinary military man?

Then again, if you can't even convince a Yelu Jincai, the incense of the military god back then can only be returned slowly in another way.

In the camp sentry, Fu Tianqi watched the other three people sit calmly and calmly, as if nothing happened, and he had to forcibly press down the worry in his heart and pretend to be fine.

You can't be a fool again.

Just as his heart slowly calmed down, Cui Xian suddenly smiled slightly, "It's here." ”

Nine hundred and ninety-nine cowardly Xue Wei, under the leadership of Yelu Jincai, appeared neatly at the door of the camp outpost.

One man, two horses, one thousand, two thousand horses, neatly and neatly.

Pei Zhen walked out of the camp sentry tent first, Yelu Jin turned over and dismounted, kneeling on one knee, "Yelu Jin only visited His Royal Highness King Jing." ”

Everyone behind him immediately followed him and knelt on one knee, "Meet His Royal Highness King Jing." ”

Pei Zhen stepped forward quickly, helped Yelu Jincai up, and said loudly: "Everyone, please be exempt!"

Everyone immediately stood up straight, and saw Cui Xian's expression frozen.

Pei Zhen took out the edict of Emperor Yuan from the square inch and handed it to Yelu Jincai.

Yelu Jincai unceremoniously took a closer look, asked the sentry to hand it over to the two generals, Li Hua and Wen Chi, and then said to Pei Zhen: "His Royal Highness King Jing, let's go." ”

Pei Zhen was unaware of the unruliness and disobedience in the eyes of these people, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go." ”

Pei Zhen's four horses were tied to the gate of the camp, and when they turned over and got on their horses, Yelu Jin had already led the team to wait on the road, facing the direction of Immortal City.

Pei Zhen stepped forward on his horse, holding the horsewhip and pointing in the opposite direction, "General Yelu, our direction is over there." ”

Yelu Jincai's pupils shrank sharply.

--------------------------------

Xue Jun came out of the palace, and his noble concubine mother, who was born in the great grassland clan, also failed to find out the secrets in the Immortal Palace that day, leaving him with nothing to do.

Just as he was about to leave, he heard the news that the fourth child had entered the palace again this morning, which surprised him a little.

By the time he left at noon, the conversation about this morning had already spread both inside and outside Miyagi.

He snorted coldly and strode back home.

Xue Ming also simply withdrew some of his gaze from the Jingwang Mansion, but he didn't expect that the fourth child had become so unbearable in the warm fragrance and warm jade in the south.

I knew that why did the three of us work together in the first place

Shizi's assassination caused one of them to be kicked by his uncle Xue Zheng.

Xue Rui had already rushed back to the Sand Sea with his entourage, and was still planning how to deal with the newly rising fourth.

As for the rest of the magnates, it is more interesting to see the excitement than to see the doorway, the Spring and Autumn Period of the Yuan Emperor is prosperous, and it is still early to stand in line or something.

People like Ma Qi, who were originally inseparable from Pei Zhenhui, also sat on the wall for the time being because of an edict last night.

It's just that, on the bright side, it seems that more people still hope that Pei Zhen will sink here.

--------------------------------

In King Jing's mansion, Cui Pheasant and Suihe sat at the table, and you and I ate preserved fruits one by one.

The little girl has no natural resistance to this kind of sweet, and after eating one, she stares at Cui Pheasant, as if urging, after Cui Pheasant picks up one, she quickly grabs one, and then waits for Cui Pheasant.

Under the rhythm of being forcibly accelerated by Suihe, a small box of preserved fruits was quickly wiped out by the two.

Cui Pheasant smiled, almost unable to remember how long it had been since he had eaten so many sweets.

Sui He smiled contentedly and said casually: "Brother Zhen, they will definitely be able to reach the fiefdom safely this time." ”

In an instant, Cui Pheasant's heartbeat seemed to have missed a beat, and he exclaimed in a low voice, "How do you know?"

"For the sake of Sister Pheasant eating so many preserved fruits with me, let me tell Sister Pheasant a secret. Suihe shook his head, "I can see all the little tricks of Brother Luo before, he thinks I don't know, but in fact I know everything." ”

She waved her small pink fist, her face smug, "I'm a genius of Tianji Mountain." ”

Cui Pheasant said with a serious expression: "Suihe, don't tell others about this." ”

Suihe wondered: "Isn't Sister Pheasant sad? ”

"Isn't this still with me?" Cui Pheasant also smiled.

"Hmm. Really. Suihe's eyes narrowed with a smile.

"Let's play with the lotus first, and I'll deal with those subordinates in the house. ”

Cui Pheasant got up and nodded obediently with the lotus and waved his hand.

Waiting to see Cui Pheasant's back go away, Suihe sighed, sat on the chair, and silently pinched the trick.

-----------------------------------

The sun gradually set in the west, and those powerful people who had never seen King Jing turn around gradually had a bad feeling in their hearts, and hurriedly sent people to inquire about the news.

By the time the horse returned, it was already gray.

Shocking news spread throughout Immortal City in an instant.

King Jing directly took a thousand cowardly Xue Wei and went straight to the fiefdom.

When Xue Jun heard the news, he smashed a case table again, and this time he suffered wine jugs and ornaments.

Xue Ming stood in the courtyard with a gloomy face, no longer as calm and calm as before.

The courtyard was deep, Yuan Tao looked at the cicada hanging on the tree on the side, and a golden cicada flapping its wings, and said softly, "Do you understand?"

Yuan Mei sighed with emotion, "The child admires." ”

-----------------------------

----------

In the night, two people who stepped into the boundary of the North Abyss from Jinxiong Prefecture also arrived at the first city after entering the North Abyss, Iron Leaf City.

With these two men's stealth skills, it is not difficult to bypass the scouts on the border patrol.

Guan Youyou, covered with a black veil, looked at the city in front of him, and let out a long breath of turbidity.

The breath blew up the sand accumulated on the veil, and a cloud of smoke and dust rolled out in the air, and I couldn't help but laugh when I saw the clouds.

The city in front of him was not high, but it looked very majestic.

This statement may sound a bit contradictory, but it is really like this.

Tall and majestic is often just a relative concept.

Yunluo smiled, "Let's go, it's time to take a bath." ”

Guan Youyou's face blushed under the veil, how could this person be open-mouthed!

Snorted coldly and went first.

didn't get the expected response, as if he was still angry, the puzzled Yunluo scratched his head and followed.
