The Ming Dynasty was full of chaos, and its roots have been around for a long time.

Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang himself was a monk and a flower, and he did not have the eloquence of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so the statecraft first went wrong.

For all foreign countries, the so-called preferential policies for ethnic minorities are fully implemented.

The real land area of the Ming Dynasty is all within the limits of the Great Wall, and it is not even one-third of the original.

Not only that, but the imperial court also has to take out a large amount of money every year to subsidize those Fanbang waiyi who enjoy preferential policies.

As long as there is the slightest inadequacy, those Fanbang foreign Yi will come to the city and loot and threaten the imperial court.

Throughout the more than 200 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it is more than 200 years of fighting around the Great Wall, and there has not been a single day of peace.

Not only was there no peace outside the Great Wall, but the Fanbang barbarians inside the Great Wall also had no peace.

Speaking of this, Wan Lian was a little indignant: "Qin Liangyu, who is so divine, is the widow of the Lao Ma family, and she is a big toast. The so-called big toast is the most powerful slave owner, and he is the super big slave owner who has the power of life and death in the place, and he is the king of a place. ”

"The entire Shiqi and Kuizhou belong to the Lao Ma family, because there are natural dangers in Shitong Pass and Puguan, so Qin Liangyu is the super first hegemon of Yunguichuan, and no foreign forces can enter Kuizhou, nor can the imperial court. ”

"Lao Ma's family has always adopted slavery, which is contrary to the national policy of the imperial court. Like Yanshan Luo Yi of the Sui Dynasty, one side listened to the tune and did not listen to the announcement, because it had an army of 50,000 strong combat effectiveness. ”

"When the people of the Lao Ma family die, not only must there be living people and livestock to be buried, but in order to ensure that the tomb is not leaked out, even the people who built the tomb and finally buried it must be executed. It's just inhumane. ”

"The lord has been in Mongolia for so many years, and he should already know about it. The Mongol army was strong because its soldiers were slaves. The white pole soldiers in Qin Liangyu's hands are also slaves, because they have the same cruel rewards and punishments as the Mongolian soldiers, so they can be fearless of death and dominate one side. ”

"Qin Liangyu is the same as the Mongolian tribal Great Khan, she has the final say in the military and civil affairs, and she can't fight with the eight poles of the imperial court. It's just that her name is Tusi, not the Great Khan, and she is not publicly called the king, but Shi Yanxuan's envoy is hereditary. ”

"In recent years, because the imperial court has to fight against the Jurchen Tartars of the Later Jin, Qin Liangyu can still listen to the tune, and her white pole soldiers can also resist for a while, so it has dragged it down, which has boosted her arrogance. ”

"If we really want to gain a firm foothold in Daguan Fort, the capital of Yongzhou, and ensure that there is no foreign interference, the objects to be destroyed are a few hereditary local slave owners. ”

"The first one is Qin Liangyu of Shiyan and Kuizhou, the second is Lu Chongming of Yongning, and the third is Shuixi Tusi An Bangyan, and then he can start a confrontation with the imperial court. ”

"The lord must know that why Zhuge Liang personally went south back then? It was because the southwest region was a mess. If you give a little benefit today, he will surrender, and tomorrow if there is no benefit, he will rebel. There has never been a single imperial court in history that has really controlled these areas, and all of them are officials and bandits. ”

"More than 4,000 war horses, for any tribe, that's a great fortune. Without the protection of a combat-ready force, they would have been robbed on the way, and the escorts would have been killed. ”

"And what I mean by strong combat power is to be able to defeat Qin Liangyu. We were able to defeat Qin Liangyu's troops, only Xiong Kaishan's hussar battalion and Liu Guozhi's Xiao cavalry battalion. In other words, unless Huo Lianshan's former army camp was pulled over, Qin Liangyu would not dare to act rashly. ”

Prince Xiong shook his head: "Although Qin Liangyu's Lao Ma family practices slavery, her army is also at the disposal of the imperial court. Four years ago, in the battle of Daling River, he also contributed a lot to the country and made great contributions. So it's better not to have conflicts. ”

Military Advisor Wan Lian sighed: "As for whether or not to kill Qin Liangyu, this is not the main problem at present. ”

It was only at this time that Xiong Chu discovered that all the favors in the big tent were not high.

Thinking that he had only come back for more than nine months, and there was no scene of jubilation, Xiong Chu was a little strange: "You are all full of bad faces, what is going on?"

Military advisor Wan Lian shook his head: "This matter is very strange, I don't know where to start for a while." ”

When Prince Xiong saw everyone's expressions, he knew that there must be a big problem, so he was also a little anxious: "Since you all think things are very strange, let's start from the beginning." I've been gone for less than a year, so I'm out of control?"

Military advisor Wan Lian sighed: "I set up the big tent of the Chinese army in the mountains of Longnan Didao, and it is not possible without a certain defense. So I decided on my own that Huang Yanying's Chinese army camp occupied Qinzhou (Tianshui) in the north, and Huo Lianshan's front army camp occupied Hanzhong in the east. ”

"This forms a horn momentum, and then waits for the lord to return. It was okay at first, except for the guerrilla general Wen Jie who led his troops to attack Qinzhou and failed, and there was no army from the imperial court in the next few months. ”

Last month, Wang Jiayin united with Yang Liu, Bu Mud, and other people's armies to launch the first large-scale military operation in Fugu, Yan'an, Qingjian and other places, Zhang Xianzhong Lianke three cities. Yang He, the governor of the three sides of Shaanxi, was too busy appeasing the people's army to take care of us. ”

"Later, Zhou Laosi's scout camp came back with the news that the Emperor of the Apocalypse had died, and more than one million victims needed to be resettled, so we were given a period of peace. ”

"But a month ago, there would always be mysterious deaths of soldiers from Qinzhou and Hanzhong. The strictest time was that the two ten-person teams sent by Huo Lianshan to collect grain and grass all died unharmed. ”

"In the past month or so, more than 50 people have died mysteriously, but we have found no clues. Originally, for our army of nearly 10,000 people, it was normal for forty or fifty people to have accidental casualties. But the death of our soldiers is very strange, and I don't think it's normal. ”

After repeated autopsies, Mr. Chen of the Lang squadron finally came to a conclusion and talked about the poison of the shadowless. If this is the case, once the news spreads, it will cause the morale of the military to be weakened. ”

"According to Master Chen, since it is a shadowless poison, it means that it is impossible to prevent it. How to deal with the people who secretly poisoned us, now we can't find a way to deal with it, so we are at a loss. ”

Xiong Chu suddenly remembered that when he was in Heifengling last year, Chen Fuzi specifically talked about the poison of the shadowless.

Because the Shadowless Poison is very rare, only two families in the Ming Dynasty have mastered this thing.

One is the imperial court, which is used to deal with the damned ministers, and the other is the Tangmen in Shuzhong.

If Chen Fuzi did not make a mistake in inferring the root cause of the mysterious death of the soldier, it means that the ghost of the Tang Sect is still lingering.

Because the imperial court would not be so naïve as to think that poisoning a few inconsequential soldiers would wipe out an army.

Xiong Chu believes that according to Chen Fuzi's cautious character, since he has already said the poison of the shadowless, he must be absolutely sure.

"Master Chen is a very careful person, and you can't blame him for this. Xiong Chu looked at the military advisor Wan Lian and said, "If my judgment is good, it should be the Tang Sect in Shuzhong that is secretly making it bad." ”

"Maybe you don't know yet, their deputy master Tang Miao has been killed by me. Now the Tang Sect found that they couldn't win the head-on battle, so they turned light into darkness and sent out all their killers. ”

"The Tang Sect did not come for the army, and their assassination of our soldiers was not the purpose, but to force me to come forward. You can make it clear to the soldiers, the matter will be resolved immediately, there is no need to panic. ”

"Having said that, this kind of assassination trick of the Jianghu sect is mainly to create an atmosphere of terror, and it is useless to deal with them sending a large army. You did not act rashly, but took all the troops into the city, and your decision was very correct. ”

"However, it is certainly not okay to be beaten passively, and we will collapse without a source of food and grass. Since this Tang Sect must die, isn't it true that the killer name of my throat-locking Kenhachiro is to eat dry rice and not use it to kill people?"

Xiong Chu's words really played a role in boosting people's hearts, and everyone finally remembered that they should hurry up to hold a reception banquet to celebrate the safe return of Xiong Chu and others, and also bring back a big beauty.

Anything can be said with a mouth, but this is not the case.

After the feast, the bear prince disappeared from people's sight and did not show up for three days.

The shadowless poison is mysterious and unpredictable, and no one on the rivers and lakes can solve it.

Prince Xiong didn't know exactly how to deal with the Shadowless Poison, so after stabilizing everyone, he secretly found Old Master Chen for advice.

Old Master Chen did not hide the truth: "My lord, there are only two ways for the shadowless poison to cause the death of humans and animals. The first is to swallow it directly, and the second is to pierce the skin and see blood. The fact that the dead soldier had no injuries indicates that someone had poisoned his diet. ”

"The old man took people to check all the corpses, and also carefully inquired about the location of the death, and finally found a similar place, that is, the people who had the accident were close to Guangyuan County and had eaten at a roadside stall. ”

"Since it is necessary to poison food, there are many poisons that can poison people. This time, it appeared directly and was a rare shadowless poison, so the old man deduced that it was the Tang Sect who started it. They use the Shadowless Poison to identify themselves. ”

For the situation of the Shadowless Poison, he has a bottom in his heart, and Xiong Chu is also at a loss.

Even if they don't eat outside in the future, who can guarantee that the food purchased from outside is not poisoned? If there is no food coming in, more than 9,000 people will be doomed immediately.

As for the place where the accident happened near Guangyuan County, this is of course easy to understand. Because two hundred and forty miles southwest of Guangyuan County is the location of the Tang Gate in Shuzhong, which is the mighty Jianghu: Eagle's Beak Rock.

Xiong Chu hid in the tent alone and didn't come out, because there was a problem that he didn't figure out.

"The soldiers are all in trouble near Guangyuan County, which is very tasteful. If we don't want to have a conflict with Qin Liangyu, we definitely can't go to Kuimen from the east stone. In this way, we can only go to the Sword Pavilion in the west, and to get to the Sword Pavilion, we must pass through Guangyuan County. ”

"Because Guangyuan County is the gateway for Gansu and Shaanxi to enter Chengdu, it has become the only way for us to go south. Did the Tang Sect create this terrifying atmosphere to block the passage of the Sword Gate Pass, or did it simply want to lure himself into showing up, and then go all out to take revenge?"

If you don't understand this problem, there will be no way to make decisions in the future, and Xiong Chu will become another Wan Lian at that time, and he will also be at a loss.

Because of this, Xiong Chu kept turning in circles with his hands behind his back in the tent, and there was only one question left in his mind: how to break the deadlock?
