Age of mythical princes

Chapter 115 Da Sima's False Day Axe, Governor of the Five Counties' Military Forces
Chaoguo, Chaohe, Liujiagang.

Ever since that earth-shattering blow appeared in the sky of Liucheng half a month ago, the young master who was originally in command of the army dropped the pick without saying a word.

This matter is too difficult, and even if he is not careful, his life will be in danger. In addition, his mother's family is also a daughter of the Qing family, so it will not matter in the end. At this moment, it is another person who came to command this army A son, son Yang Sheng.

At this moment, Young Master Yang Sheng was discussing with his family Cheng what to do next.

Jiacheng's family background is not good, he is not from the Qing clan, not even the son of the eldest son, but just the son of a doctor.Fortunately, this bastard is also a genius, and now he has awakened his blood at a young age, comparable to three generations of doctors.

However, the bastard was obviously not satisfied with this.

Land reclamation is too difficult, out of ten doctors who go to land reclamation, nine will die at the hands of demons, and the remaining one succeeds by luck, and most of them are short-lived, and they will not live long at all. The son may not be able to hold such a large territory, and in the end only one is left Township is also a common thing.

There is only one township after exhaustion, so it is better to go to a certain Qing clan from the beginning and become a guest of the Qing clan, and the Qing clan rewards the land of one township as a fiefdom.

But this kind of life is obviously not what this concubine wants, so he defected to Young Master Yang Sheng. It is not shameful to burn a cold stove. What if Young Master Yang Sheng succeeds?

This concubine's name is Hu, Jia Chenghu.

"My lord, the commanding army to attack Yancheng this time must be in great danger. Even if the king rewards you with a drop of the true blood of the Heavenly Emperor, no lord is willing. Otherwise, it won't be your turn, lord."

Hearing this, Young Master Yangsheng laughed at himself: "I don't have a prominent background. My mother died of illness shortly after giving birth to me. Naturally, I don't have any support. Apart from this life, what else do I have? For me, If you don't even dare to try your best, how can you succeed to the throne?"

"If you work hard, there is a high probability that you will not succeed to the throne, but if you don't work hard, it is absolutely impossible to succeed. What's more, this time is my chance. The father rewarded this drop of the true blood of the Emperor of Heaven. It is genuine. With this drop of true blood, I will be able to succeed With a breakthrough, returning to the ancestors has become an existence comparable to the second generation of ministers."

Jia Chenghu nodded: "My lord, the current situation is very complicated."

"For this battle, our goal is Yancheng. For this battle, the monarch prepared two yellow-rank Taoist soldiers for you, son, and also recruited [-] people from the capital, [-] followers and warriors, and asked you to lead the East. The land of the five counties, supervising the military affairs of the land of the five counties, can be said to be generous."

"But the more generous the monarch is, the greater the risk of this trip."

"Young master, to put it harshly, these soldiers and the young master are just pawns used to test Yancheng. If they are not careful, they will be sacrificed. At that time, the young master's death will be worthless."

"Since the blow half a month ago, everyone knows that Yancheng is not easy to fight. Even if the young master breaks through, plus those two Taoist soldiers, it seems that the strength of Yancheng is only about the same as it is now. Whether Peng Bing is dead or alive."

"Although it is rumored that he is dead, who can guarantee it? We are the key to the test."

Hearing this, Young Master Yangsheng nodded very seriously: "That's the truth, but it is also possible that Peng Bing is dead. If he is dead, and Yancheng has no other backup, then this battle can be fought a dozen times." , after all, Uncle Bochang will also participate in this battle."

"This is my chance! Maybe this is my only chance. If I don't seize it, how can I succeed?"

Even if you know that the front is likely to be a trap, so what?
In many cases, it's not that you don't know that there is a big pit ahead, but that you have no choice.

Many choices are considered stupid and foolish after the incident, but in the environment at that time, it may have seemed the best choice.

Young Master Yangsheng is like this, he has no choice.

"Then let's make good preparations, anyway, there are also five eastern counties." Jia Chenghu said seriously.

The five counties in the east are all located outside the Chaohe River.

Since the decisive battle between Peng Bing and Bochang, many legends of the past have been rediscovered, and many legends are now regarded as history books.

Back then, the first monarch of the Chao Kingdom used his supernatural powers to directly open up the Chaohe River near the Yangtze River and divert the water from the Yangtze River into the Chaohe River.

He first used his real body to make a random arch on the ground, and arched out this chao river that looked like a circle, and then diverted the water from the Yangtze River, and finally there was the current Chao River.

There are a total of 26 counties in Chaohe, and these 26 counties are the essence of Chao Country.

It is said that when the first monarch of Chao State was in power, Chao State had a total of 96 counties, and it was also a proper big princely state.It's just that after his death, the second-generation descendants couldn't defend such a large territory. All kinds of conspiracies and evil kings emerged one after another. When the third generation succeeded, the [-] counties became [-] counties.

Finally, it became what it is today.

The four Qing clans, each guarding one side, are located in the four directions of the southeast, northwest, and outside of the Chaohe River. The east is the Hu family of the Qing clan.Of the five counties in the east, the Hu family occupies one county, and other nobles, big and small, occupy two counties, and there are only two counties that are directly under the rule of the monarch.

These five counties were often submerged by seawater 1 years ago. Until 1 years ago, Mo Sheng was in charge of the East China Sea, teaching the dragons to be human with his own strength. Even the Dragon Lord of the East China Sea was helped by the fists of Mo Sheng From then on, I learned the principle of good-neighborliness and friendship.

Since then, few evil dragons have set off infinite waves towards the mainland in order to become real dragons.It's not that they have become better, but that they have changed directions.

The land of the five counties east of Chaohe River has only gradually gained value since then.

Before that, the land of these five counties was often submerged by the waves, only wild people would survive here, and the great nobles would not come here at all.There are too many monsters and aquariums, and they can't be killed all.

"These five counties have a relatively short period of time, there are not too many nobles, and the inheritance is not very good. The overall strength is far behind the 26 counties in Chaohe. The land of the five counties is added together, plus today's Yancheng , may be equivalent to the land of two counties."

"After we go there, we must first find a way to integrate the five counties."

Hearing this, Young Master Yangsheng directly sighed: "Let's not talk about the land of the five counties, now there are only four counties left. And it will take at least half a month for the army to leave Liujiagang for the east of the Chaohe River. Maybe there are only three counties left."

Jia Chenghu smiled: "Young master, this is actually a good thing. There are only three counties left, so two counties have already fallen into the hands of thieves. Moreover, the land of the five eastern counties is shallow, and most nobles are pioneers. The nobles are not the nobles entrusted by the monarch, these lands of the nobles are their own, so they pay very little tax to the monarch on weekdays, even if they lose it, the monarch has only a small amount of obligations."

"So, young master, you might as well carry out publicity with great fanfare, mainly in two aspects."

"In the first aspect, there are two counties that have already fallen into the hands of thieves. You don't need to defeat Yancheng. You only need to take back the land of these two counties. There will be at least thirty counties, and at least thirty doctor-level pioneers will be born. Noble. Young Master, you are the Grand Sima with a fake festival yue, and you are in charge of the military forces of the five counties, so you still have the right to reward nobles."

There are not many other things in Chaoguo, but the bastard is much older!
People in the country will train their own sons strictly according to the requirements of the army since they were young. When they grow up, they must be qualified grassroots officers with muscular muscles and basic military law.

In addition to military training, scholars would also send their concubine sons to private schools run by doctors to learn some supernatural knowledge. Many scholars' concubine sons were better, and even awakened their blood.As for the doctor's concubine, there is no need to say more.

Most of these bastards are full of martial arts, all of them can read and write, and they are also good at using weapons to hack and kill.

The poorest son of a poor countryman, when he left his father, he would also be given a weapon and some money by his father.The bastards of scholars usually have a horse and armor, and there are even more bastards of doctors. These bastards can become elite soldiers with a little training.

"As long as the young master is willing to award the reward, the bastards from all over the country will quickly gather towards Liujiagang. In this way, the young master will have no shortage of elite soldiers. With a little training, the young master will have his own team. Moreover, among the bastards, there are also real geniuses. , there are dozens of them in the capital alone who are comparable to three generations of doctors at a young age."

"As long as you are willing to unite these bastards and let them see hope, then after this battle, regardless of the outcome, your team will be able to gather smoothly. By then, you will have talents, an army, a territory, and Wealth, at this time it is possible to seize the heirloom."

"The second aspect is to tell those nobles who lost their land that now the monarch sends his son to recover the lost land, and they must contribute. If they don't contribute anything, after the lost land is recovered in the future, those who used to have a county as a fief will only be given a township. In the past, those who had a township and land were granted only one village, and those who had only one village in the past were given a thousand-mu manor. Those who had no land in the past only recognized honor and did not give any benefits."

"As soon as the news comes out, those nobles who have lost their land will definitely try their best to provide us with all the help they can, and this will give us information."

Speaking of this, Jia Chenghu cupped his fists: "Please also ask the young master to block the secrets."

Hearing this, Young Master Yangsheng blinked his eyes, and took out a jade pendant with a smile on his face. After crushing the jade pendant, a red light shrouded the area with a radius of several feet. The time is limited, so Jiacheng Lake will make a long story short.

"My son, the rebels in Yancheng must be suppressed, but they cannot be suppressed. The scale must be grasped."

"Even if Yancheng is really powerful, it's the monarch's business, the Chao country's business, not the son's responsibility."

"Our trip is to reach a tacit agreement with Yancheng."

"First of all, we can tell Yancheng that we will train the army in Liujiagang next, and delay the time as much as possible. Now it is the second month of autumn, and it is easy to delay until winter. In this way, we can obtain trade concessions from Yancheng, From then on, the trade between Yancheng and domestic nobles must be handed over to us. With trade, you will have money, son, and with money, we can raise soldiers."

"When it's winter, let's continue training on the grounds of our ancestral precept of not fighting in winter."

"Of course, if you don't fight, you can't really do nothing. The army still has to move forward. Next month, son, you have to show your determination and command the army to Guyang County, which has not yet been captured."

"At that time, son, you will be in Guyang County, and you will continue to send troops to fight. Whoever does not listen to you, you will send someone to wipe out the army outside Yancheng, and then use tacit understanding to eliminate the leader of this army. Immortal, and can be beheaded directly after defeat."

"Young Master, what you have to do is to use your own power and position to completely control Dongjun and Guyang County. At that time, Young Master, you can discuss with Yancheng in advance, they will withdraw from Dongjun, and we will occupy Dongjun. There is no need to really fight , can you send it abroad as a gift?"

"At that time, we also had a good record. At least we regained Dongjun. As for other records, we can kill wildlings, marinate them, and say they are soldiers from Yancheng. Who can say anything?"

"At that time, we only need the two counties of Dong County and Guyang County, and the remaining three counties will be handed over to them."

"What Yancheng needs most today is time. Yancheng looks strong, but there are already many internal problems. Jiang Hua also needs time to reintegrate the interior and make the interior united as one. He also needs time to cultivate a real confidant team. He still needs time to train Taoist soldiers, and also needs time to study new Taoism, so that more subordinates can become Taoist priests."

"So, don't worry about Yancheng not agreeing."

"The key lies in how to divide the interests. If the negotiation is good, by the spring of next year, the elite soldiers formed by the bastards will have been trained. You have also completely digested the true blood of the emperor, son. You can even build a team based on the bastards." It belongs to your Taoist soldiers."

"At that time, it will not be too late to decide whether to fight or make peace."

"In my opinion, to achieve this goal, the most important thing is tacit understanding. We will not do treasonous things, and we will not do private collusion with Yancheng. Everything is a tacit understanding, and everything is a coincidence."

"Next, we have to fight, and we can't really risk everything to fight."

"Young master, you must grasp the speed of it carefully."

"If you act too fake, son, you will lose the favor of the nobles in the country. No matter what, the nobles will not accept a traitorous son as successor."

"But if everything is a real fight, then you will really become cannon fodder, young master. Even if you die on the battlefield, other people will only say a few hypocritical words of praise for your bravery after learning about it."

Speaking of this, the surrounding red light began to dim, and Jiacheng Lake stopped talking. Before the red light completely disappeared, Young Master Yangsheng nodded: "Then wait until next spring, and have a good battle!"

Jia Chenghu said appropriately: "All this is for the overall situation!"
