Xiao Yibo surprisingly did not refute Huang Yuanwu's words, he quietly looked at the young man in front of him, and there was a trace of vicissitudes on his resolute face. I haven't seen him for a few months, and Huang Yuanwu has grown from a single general to a real commander. In this regard, Xiao Yibo nodded secretly, very relieved in his heart.

Of the four heirs of the Eastern Palace, there is indeed not a single misson.

"You led the men and horses to the imperial capital, what are you going to do next?Let them open the city, and then hand over Yang Qin?" Xiao Yibo still asked the question in his heart, for these things, he didn't think too much about these things at all, he only knew that in the all-out struggle, strength is the first important, and if you don't have enough strength, you will be ruthlessly eliminated.

Huang Yuanwu smiled at Xiao Yibo, did not answer his question directly, but squinted his eyes, and said: "Uncle Xiao, I know what you think, but this trip to the imperial capital, I am afraid that I will really not be able to complete this goal, and the first priority of this trip is to delay as much time as possible." ”

"Hey......" Xiao Yibo frowned, sat back in the chair with a look of great annoyance, and then looked at Huang Yuanwu, and said, "You can do it, if you don't need my old bones to go, I won't go." With that, he stood up, turned and went out, without saying another word.

Huang Yuanwu looked at Xiao Yibo's back, the originally strong back had lost a lot of weight. In the past few months, Xiao Yibo has almost single-handedly carried all the matters related to the preparation of the army and horses in the East Palace, including cleaning up the enemy spies inside the palace, and he is really tired.

"Uncle Xiao has changed a bit lately. The voice of the rest of his life came at an inopportune time, and his voice was very low: "What he thinks in his heart, you and I both know that he has the most important affection in this life, and he knows the news that the old prince died in battle, and it is not appropriate for him to take the troops of Pingjin City to kill God without authorization." ”

"I know. Huang Yuanwu nodded lightly and said, "The current situation, Uncle Xiao sees it better than us, he just doesn't say it." ”

Xiao Yibo's figure disappeared into the front yard and went straight out of the courtyard, Huang Yuanwu sighed softly, and then asked Yu Sheng: "Are the soldiers and horses ready?"

"The 150,000 troops you want have been assembled outside the city. The rest of his life returned: "Among them, 50,000 cavalry are elite, and the ration and grass baggage have also been allocated. Little prince, are you sure that this expedition does not require long-term supplies?"

"No, you don't. Huang Yuan Wu said: "No accident, within 20 days, the army will return, and this time to go to the imperial capital, there should be no war." He is not a fool at the beginning of the emperor, he has dragged our Dongwang Mansion for so long, he will not be confused at this critical moment. While we all know that we will eventually fight each other, now is not the time. ”

"Once he takes the throne, he will definitely do it to us. Yu Sheng is still a little worried, but there is no good solution, he has been thinking about this matter for a long time, there is no way to solve it, every time this time, he misses Ye Guan very much, but Yu Sheng does not know, Ye Guan, may never come back.

"Things are by no means as simple as imagined, look at it, that Yang Qin is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp, he will force himself into death, this is absolutely impossible. Huang Yuanwu's eyes were deep, he had always believed that this suddenly rebellious leader of the Guards was definitely not as simple as it seemed, and he must have a bigger plan to implement, because the current situation in the imperial capital seemed to be very unfavorable to him. To say that he has not made any moves since he obtained the imperial capital, Huang Yuanwu will never believe this.

"How about Yuchen?" couldn't think of these things clearly, so Yu Sheng simply stopped asking, diverted the topic, and asked about Huang Yuchen.

"He's still like that, he's been in a coma, he's been in a coma for almost a month, he's been healed from his injuries, but he's never woken up. "Speaking of Huang Yuchen, Huang Yuanwu also has a headache, now Huang Yuchen's state can not be explained by anyone, whether it is from the meridians or physical condition, Huang Yuchen has recovered to the peak state, there is no problem with his body, but he has been in a coma, and he has not woken up at all.

Liu Xing'an and Qi Zhengye have been guarding Huang Yuchen's side, almost not leaving an inch, but even the two of them have never seen such a situation.

Generally, after being seriously injured and unconscious, the aura will be somewhat disordered, and if it is a cultivator, the fighting qi in the meridians will also become chaotic. But Huang Yuchen's state is different, his breath is gentle, there is no trace of chaos, the fighting qi in the meridians is normal, and there is no problem with each cycle, but he just can't wake up.

"I brought him to Pingjin City this time, also because I put myself in the palace, and I was a little worried. Huang Yuanwu said in a deep voice: "Although the attack on Tianqing City has subsided, the person who snooped on the secrets of my palace is still there, Yuchen's identity has been revealed, after I leave, the palace will no longer be safe, Brother Yu, you ......"

Yu Sheng saw Huang Yuanwu's speechless appearance, and immediately nodded, and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of him." ”

"Huh......" Huang Yuanwu let out a sigh of relief, and then he didn't know whether to say to Yu Sheng, or to himself: "Things are much more complicated than imagined. In this world, there is really a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. ”

Yu Sheng didn't speak, he looked at Huang Yuanwu and fell into deep thought.

......

Huang Yuanwu took his escort to repair in Pingjin City for a day, and the next morning, the army marched out.

150,000 soldiers marched out of the city wall under construction, entered the vast Gobi, and went straight to the imperial capital.

Yu Sheng and Xiao Yibo stood at the head of Pingjin City, looking at the team that was gradually moving away, and the expressions on their faces were a little heavy.

Huang Yuanwu's expedition may change the current pattern, and if he is not careful, the East Wangfu will become the target of public criticism. But now the situation is such that we have to go.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, knowing that he was a puppet emperor, whether he respected the new emperor or opposed the new emperor. These two roads do not seem to be so peaceful.

There is no doubt that the Prayer Heaven Empire is going to change the sky. As for what will become of the future, no one knows.

Huang Yuanwu went out this time and took away 50,000 recruits who had completed their new training, and these sergeants had received Xiao Yibo's devil-like training, and they were already full of confidence in getting on the battlefield.

Pingjin City suddenly lost 150,000 soldiers, and it was suddenly a lot deserted. Xiao Yibo glanced at Yu Sheng, who was standing beside him, and said softly: "Recruits will continue to recruit, and we are afraid that our current strength is still far behind." ”

Hearing this, Yu Sheng nodded lightly, and then said: "It's just that now, what we lack is not troops, but time." ”

Afterwards, the two went down the city wall and went to work on their own signals.

Yu Sheng was responsible for the continued construction of the city wall on the edge of the Gobi, while Xiao Yibo was responsible for what he did best, military training.

The current development model of Dongwangfu does take time. The southern territory is vast, and between it and the Prayer Heaven Empire, it is blocked by a towering mountain range, and there is no road that can pass through each other, which makes the entire vast southern territory a vein of its own.

Although the land in the south is vast, most of them are virgin lands that have not been developed, and most of the areas are covered by jungles, among which there are many poisonous insects and beasts, and the swamps are full of fog, which is also one of the reasons why the tribes in the south have not been able to develop and grow for a long time.

If the Eastern Prince's Mansion wants to complete the development of the southern border, it is impossible for decades. This is also why, the strategy set by the old prince at the beginning was to take the enclave first. Although the southern frontier is a very good strategic depth, all the veins need to be rebuilt, and it will take too long, and no one can say what will happen to the entire empire in this long time.

But now, the fact in front of Huang Yuanwu is that the enclave is definitely impossible to enter again, and if the affairs of Tianqing City are not removed, the enclave is not something that the East Wangfu can touch. And it will take time to develop the southern border, build a city and thrive.

Huang Yanghui has done a very good job in the south, the location of the main city has also been chosen, and he is in the process of preparing for the start of construction, he does not know that there has been a turmoil in the palace, just as a trivial matter, and did not go to his heart.

He deeply understands how important it is to develop the southern territory for the Eastern Prince's Mansion, although he has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is a fierce general on the battlefield, but it is not impossible for him to recuperate. In addition to the 50,000 soldiers who followed him to the southern realm, there were also millions of people who had recently been transferred from the hinterland of the Eastern Palace, and these people were now temporarily living in the only city between the southern border and the palace, which seemed very crowded.

Huang Yanghui had to get more people to live outside the city, cut down the surrounding trees to build houses, and build new cities. After all, opening up new territory is not something that can be done overnight, it is a long-term work.

The first craftsmen in charge of building the city had come to this position under the protection of the troops, and their current work was mainly to cut down trees, prepare everything for use, and level the clearing between the mountains.

This kind of work is heavy and inefficient, but it is something that has to be done. If you want to build an unruly city, preparation is extremely important.

Huang Yanghui has been on the front line, living with all the craftsmen and sergeants, in addition to commanding the construction, he also personally went into battle for a lot of work. After all, compared to ordinary people, cultivators are much faster in terms of strength and efficiency.

As for the three people that Huang Yuanwu arranged to pretend to be Huang Yuchen by his side, Huang Yanghui has always been with him, he knows the importance of these people, if someone really stares at Huang Yuchen, after getting the news, there will definitely be a move.

On this day, the wind was mild, and many tents were set up at the foot of the southern mountains, in the jungle, in a dense temporary living area.

These white marching tents were very conspicuous in the green of the jungle, and in one of the inconspicuous tents, Huang Yanghui was resting.

This time, he did not carry the general's tent, in order to get more supplies, he himself chose this kind of small marching tent, which often appeared in his daily march, and his subordinates had long been accustomed to it.

The vicinity of the rest area had been cleared and temporary fortifications had been erected, mainly to keep out the beasts from the jungle, and the southern frontier was inaccessible to the people, and there was no living man to be seen except for the city a hundred miles away.

In the distance, under the mountains, many workers are working, a large area of trees has been cut down, and now they are digging a rock wall at the foot of the mountain, which will be a long project.

In the morning camp, there were no people, a large number of workers were working at the foot of the mountain, most of the rest were preparing, and the whole camp was very silent.

At this moment, two figures flashed out and wandered around the camp, extremely fast, after swimming more than a dozen tents, finally, they came to Huang Yanghui's tent.
