The Legend of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 386 Seizing the Inheritance - 1
In the recent period, everyone in the Zhongshi Rong clan is in danger, all because of the [Black Nightmare Army] that has the full support of [Yanhuang Country], it puts too much pressure on them!
The [Yanhuang Country] that was originally thought to be just a small country is too scary, and I don’t know how their border, which is no more than Wantuo, swallowed so many people like a giant beast, and I don’t know how such a small place is. How to produce such a huge amount of various products.

Raising tens of millions of troops with the power of a country is definitely an act of militarism. Even when [Zhongrong County] is in its best situation, it would not dare to be as extravagant as [Yanhuang Country].

Just like before the Great War, Zhongrong County "claimed" to have 4000 to [-] million soldiers and horses, while each prefecture had tens of millions of soldiers, but in fact, it was true that those who were actually soldiers could be counted as soldiers. how many?

The so-called "soldiers" are not a group of peasants recruited from behind, and they are considered soldiers with a wooden stick. According to the military system of the [Dayou Dynasty] that has followed the thousand-year military system, they have only [Jiepin] or above combat strength, and have at least six months of off-the-job training , Only those who have complete armor and weapons can be regarded as [war soldiers], and those who are below [Jiepin] can only be regarded as [force pawns].

Considering that [Zhongrong County] lives in a small corner, and after thousands of years of experience, it is already considered that one-tenth of the "combatants" among the "twenty-four million soldiers and horses" that are "so-called" The above is the result of the management of Wang Xiongtao and martial arts in the past dynasties.

According to the rough statistical method of "ten people produce one animal, ten animals produce one pig, ten pigs produce one pig, ten pigs produce one horse, and ten horses come out of one prison", among the 400 million [combatants], can There are only 240 million people who have reached [彘品], only 24 people who have reached [Ji Pin], and only 4000 people who have reached [Long Pin].

And those who have reached the level of [Tai Lao], half-step level, I am afraid there are even fewer, and it is not bad to have more than 2000 people. From this point of view, in the Twelve Army, most of the generals are not in the [Shao Lao] level. It can be seen.

Those who went beyond ordinary body forging and entered the level of practice, there are only more than 200 people in the four ranks of "leopard, tiger, bear, and 罴". It can be regarded as the top high-end combat power in this wild secular world.

Moreover, with the low productivity of the wilderness, the more than 2000 million [combatants] are not as imagined as full-body heavy armor holding swords and armed to the teeth. In terms of equipment supply, they also strictly follow the "cloth, leather, leather , A" level for armed.

That is to say, it is not bad for an ordinary [Jiepin] soldier to wear at most a set of "cloth armor" made of thick cloth, and a [彘pin] soldier can also wrap a set of "cloth armor" on the cloth armor. With a thin layer of hard leather, [Ji Pin] soldiers can wear thick leather, and [Long Pin] generals are qualified to wear armor.

Iron armor with strong defense?
That has to be qualified to be worn by a commanding general with status!
But look at the [Black Nightmare Army], to be precise, look at the Yanhuang Army. Although there are not many high-end combat powers above the [Ji Pin], the soldiers below, even those in charge of logistics, are generally [Jiepin] and [彘pin], I don't know how they were raised, each of them is fat and strong, with big arms and round waists.

Look at the equipment and equipment of the Yanhuang Army, leather armor?what is that?
They don’t have that kind of thing, let alone the soldiers of the main battle, even the servants who have just been gathered in Zhongrong City to serve as logistics logistics, they directly issued a whole set of black iron full body armor that looks like an iron pot !
As long as you have the strength to run, you can choose from the "light armor" of one tantalum and five, the "medium armor" of three tantalums, and the "heavy armor" of four tantalums and five, not to mention the unique characteristics of Yanhuang. All kinds of weapons with extremely exquisite shapes.

Good quality and beautiful shape are almost the standard features of Yanhuang products.

Although it is said that no matter how gorgeous the equipment looks on the battlefield, it is useless if one's own strength is not enough, but considering the image and momentum, under the premise of passing the quality, the exquisite shape is very necessary.

Think about it, the two armies are facing each other, one side is dressed like Brother Sharp, and the weapon in his hand is like a fire stick, while the other side has clanging iron armor and cold steel blades. The watch was off the charts, and the morale of "Brother Sharp" would have plummeted before the fight even started.

Fuck?Just one glance and he is so handsome!
Compared with other people's Black Nightmare Army, those Rong soldiers of the original Central Rong Army have become farmers. They are ashamed to go out these days. How can they compare with others?The kitchen soldiers who cook the fire are all wearing black iron armor, the shovels used for cooking are all black iron shovels, and the food bowls used by soldiers when they eat are all black iron basins...

In contrast, although there are many soldiers under the Rong clan, how many of them can wear armor and hold iron weapons in their hands?If you can have a rusty iron spearhead and pierce it with a stick, you are considered an elite soldier.

Damn that is black iron!

Although it is [low-grade black iron], it is not comparable to the treasures of heaven and earth such as star gold, but it is also a luxury item worth a tael of ten thousand gold!Why are they willing to use them as shovels and pots?

A set of black iron armor worn by the cook and the groom who raises horses is worth tens of millions of gold, which is enough for these Rong families to raise a huge bodyguard army, not to mention the soldiers below, just The generals of the Rong tribe didn't say that they were so extravagant that they could make a full body armor out of black iron, and that they could have a heart shield that would be enough for them.

Not to mention envy, jealousy and hatred, when the people of the Rong tribe watched the soldiers of the Black Nightmare Army roaming the streets, they all wanted to snatch them!

However, no one dared to move!
Not to mention that the Black Nightmare Army, which has become a climate, is stalking outside the city of Zhongrong, and the Shirong clan whose destiny has been tied to the Zhuansun clan of Zhongrong's royal family, once they dare to plot rebellion, they will be punished. The world won't tolerate them, and they won't tolerate them within the military system alone.

After all, the Shirong and Rong tribes have been dependent on the royal family since ancient times, so they naturally have their own set of survival rules. Once they violate this set of rules, they will be rejected by the entire tribe.

The so-called [gentry clan] and [Rong clan] do not just refer to a certain family or the Rong clan in a certain place. They are distributed throughout the wilderness, just like terms such as "workers, merchants, farmers", etc. It is a huge professional group that is inherited by force.

The biggest taboos of these two ethnic groups are treason and devouring the lord. Once a Rong family is loyal to a certain royal family, before the "master" disappears, it will not only be condemned by the world Rejection will also be rejected by the entire ethnic group of Rong people.

The strange thing is that if the original owner's inheritance is cut off and the Rong people regain their freedom, they don't have to abide by this so-called loyalty rule, and they can even immediately gain the trust of the new owner who wiped out the old owner's inheritance. He should be a general in the new dynasty Still a general, this is the way of inheritance of the Rong people.

This is also the reason why none of the Zhuansun family of the Zhongrong royal family has fallen into a great crisis, and no family of the Rong family has turned their backs on him. Of course, "non-betrayal" and "inaction" are two different things. Aristocratic families have their own way of survival in order to ensure the continuation of the group.

But now, the value of the Rong clan seems to be gradually becoming weaker. The appearance of the [Black Nightmare Army] supported by [Yanhuang Kingdom] makes their existence seem to be irrelevant to the Zhuansun family.

Not only the Rong people, but also the gentry who are in charge of managing the country for the royal family, also suffered from the same predicament as the Rong people because of a new management group from [Yanhuang Kingdom].

[Yanhuang Foreign Secretary Group], this kind of "scholar" system from [Yanhuang Kingdom] is gradually entering the power class of the central palace. Xiang Gui and Ji's management team replaced the role of the gentry bureaucrat system in a short period of time, and the current female ministers simply don't need them, civil officials who are up for grabs.

Originally, the civil service system in Zhongrong County was so huge that almost the entire Zhongrong County was filled with their people. Once the gentry "strike", it can be said that the entire Zhonggong ruling system will be completely paralyzed.

But now, the [-] secretaries of Yanhuang who directly serve the female ministers can easily do the work of thousands of officials and tens of thousands of envoys in Zhongrong County.

No one knew how they did it, nor saw them running around, nor saw them handling paperwork, but they were able to handle the government affairs in a huge Zhongrong City in an orderly manner, and it seemed that it was easy, It didn't take much effort.

These fifty Yanhuang secretaries are not even officials, and they don't have any rights themselves. They just convey the government affairs that need to be handled and given instructions before reaching the female minister's case, and let the female minister decide.

For example, due to the increase in the number of hungry people in Zhongrong City, the patrolmen asked Shangguan to open warehouses to release grain, so as to prevent civil unrest.

If it was handed over to the original gentry official system, the warehouse officials in charge of the granary at the lowest level would report upwards, and only after passing the review of a dozen or [-]-level officials could the documents requesting instructions for releasing grain be sent to the desk of the Zhonggong, and then the Zhonggong After the warehouse opening was approved, the instructions went down one level at a time, and finally the documents were passed back to the warehouse officials, and the procedures could not be completed within a month or two.

And now?
The storekeeper at the bottom asked for instructions through a magic weapon called "spiritual ring": the number of hungry people in the city is increasing, can food be released to relieve the people?
Secretary Yan Huang received the request and asked the female minister: Do you want to let her go?
Female phase: let go!

Secretary Yanhuang told the warehouse official: The girl agrees, let her go!

If the central palace is busy, it will take about a cup of tea. If it is not busy, the central palace will have an order in no more than ten breaths just after the inquiry. But I don't know how many times faster.

I heard that this system is just beginning to be used in Zhongrong City, and it will be placed in [Yanhuang Kingdom]. I heard that there is a special term called "Miaohui", and most of the government affairs do not need to ask for instructions. , Directly follow the regulations that have been perfected to "a few cents per thread", and the people below will deal with them if they have their own examples to follow.

How can the tens of thousands of gentry officials in Zhongrong City, who are already idle and almost grow green hair, not panic?If you don't find something to do, they really have nothing to do!
But who's to blame?

The former emperor passed away, and the selected candidates seized the throne. They all wanted to follow the dragon's merits, and they even cared about foreign enemies and internal troubles, eager to hug the thick thighs of the selected candidates.

It is precisely because of their inaction to retain their own combat power during the national crisis that almost brought the military and political affairs of Zhongrong County to a standstill. Yanhuang's reinforcements were also attracted, and the surname of Zhongrong County was not Zhuansun.

Nowadays, the elders of the Zhuansun clan never mention the succession of the county king, and hand over the full power of the [Chuan Guojun] to the female prime minister. Although there is a lesson from the assassination of the previous king, doing so also has the meaning of protecting the new king. But it was mainly because the elders in the clan were too disappointed with the princes.

Instead of handing over the county to these prodigal sons, it is better to suppress the matter of the new king's enthronement, and let the female prime minister, who is extremely powerful in terms of ability and means, take charge, and get through the current predicament first.

And the attitude of the female minister is also very clear, among the candidates for the county, whoever can calm down the external and internal troubles of this Zhongrong County will be the one who will take over this [Chuan Guojun] and become the king!
In order to show fairness, Zhonggong will not support the county candidates with money and food. Whether you go to the rich in the city to solicit sponsorship and investment, or go to rob houses, everyone will fight for the position according to their own abilities!
The selected county sons and the two families of soldiers behind them are very clear that the purpose of the female prime minister is to force out the forces behind them, and make them show their strength that they have been hiding all along, and do their best. Suppress the self-reliant mansions in the county.

But this is easy to say, but so difficult to do!
The support of the two lines of Shirong to the candidate is also limited. They can't overwhelm all the vitality of the family for the selected county, otherwise, even if Conglong succeeds, what's the use of the family's vitality being seriously injured?

So this matter has been delayed again and again, and it has been delayed like this. That female figure is also cruel enough. Anyway, this Zhongrong County belongs to your Zhuansun family. You are not in a hurry. I am an outsider, am I?

Anyway, the Guannan army has been temporarily repelled, and [Dingjun Mountain] is guarded by [Black Nightmare Army], so I just need to do my duty well.

As a result, after three months, there was no progress in the external affairs. On the contrary, the internal affairs in Zhongrong City were taken care of in an orderly manner by the woman. There has not been any case of civil unrest, but it has prospered a lot.

Even the Eighth Office of the City Guards, which is still nominally under the jurisdiction of the Central Palace, has caught many spies and spies under the encouragement of the female prime minister. It was sent by a rising force in the county.

Seeing that the female minister is stabilizing the county, the newly-built Black Nightmare Army has become popular again. Hearing that the female minister summoned the two leaders of the Black Nightmare Army to Biyun Central Palace to discuss matters, the county princes who are eligible for election and the families behind them are all panicked They got up and rushed to Zhonggong one after another, intending to find out some useful news.

Concubine Ji is also suffering from headaches recently. Although she has taken on the errand of governing the country, she is not really here to protect the family and the country for the Zhuansun family. "Zi" forces also frequently haunted various government houses in China to inquire about news.

The chess game of this "World of Great Controversy" has changed from the early "dark game" to the current "bright game". In the war, the members of the "Zimu" of "Mingyue Sect" also began to enter the world to experience calamities.

The forces of all parties showed their magical powers, and they almost turned this secluded place into a pot of gruel. She was too far away, and she was naturally out of reach, but in this county of Zhongrong County, the robbery that had surfaced had already surfaced. There are no fewer than a dozen members of Zi and Zimu, and the outside forces with many sects located in Zhongrong County also jumped out of a group of demons to fight for power.

Fortunately, she was ahead of the others, first occupying the power in the middle palace, and then took such a good move from [Yan Huangguo], faintly suppressing the others. Within the middle range, she can be regarded as the most powerful It's a "robber".

But what gave her a headache was that the nine princes of the next generation of the Zhuansun family (there were originally ten, but the one who ascended the throne after Zhuansun Mishi was assassinated was killed before he ascended the throne.), it is really too disappointing , there is no half majesty and grand strategy of Zhuan Sun Mishi who was assassinated and died.

They didn't say they tried their best to persuade the soldiers and clans and the powerful clans to help them win the heir apparent, but they turned their attention to her. Some showed her great hospitality, some made secret promises, and some even threatened her. , which made her angry and funny, didn't these people just fancy the Yanhuang power behind her, and wanted to help them?

Now Biyun Palace has become her domain, although she knows how many secret guards of the Zhuansun family are watching secretly, but Concubine Ji doesn't care at all, she has no plan to seek the prince of the Zhuansun family In this position, as long as she is still planning for Zhuansun, Zhuansun will not touch her at all, so naturally there is no need to worry about anyone being unfavorable to her.

And her identity as "Jiezi" was only known to the elders of the Zhuansun family, and this identity could somewhat calm them down and fully support her in taking over the power of Zhongrong County.

"My lady, the two generals of the Black Nightmare Army have arrived!"

While busy with the seemingly endless government affairs, a female official came in to report respectfully. Only then did Concubine Ji let out a sigh of relief, stood up and greeted her personally. Others might not know it, but she knew that among the two , there must be one who is the mysterious Lord of Yanhuang.

Right now, the Yanhuang Kingdom has become the biggest force she can rely on, so naturally she can't be neglected, but before she and Yanhuang have met the ceremony, the female officer hastily reported that the generals and ministers of the two lines of soldiers and soldiers, as well as the nine All the county princes came to ask about politics.

Sighing, Concubine Ji greeted the two of Yan Huang to enter the palace, and at the same time sent people to invite those guys with their own ghosts to come, which was regarded as an impromptu court meeting.
