Chapter 34 Han Xin recruits soldiers, the more the better! "Tell me about the situation in various places and how it's progressing?" Yuan Tiangang leaned back on the couch, tapping his fingers Yuan Tiangang's leisurely and contented expression, Qin Yong said solemnly: "General, news has come from Raojiang that the two groups of insect masters in the Ten Thousand Poison Cave established by the Witch King and the Gu King are at loggerheads with each other. The Raojiang Bad People they lead have become their diehard followers. Although the Raojiang Ten Thousand Poison Cave is small in number, the insect masters are quite powerful, especially those who are good at controlling insects, who are extremely difficult to deal with. If the General does not step in to suppress them, their ambitions will probably swell and they will completely leave the Bad People." "Haha, these two, one is kind-hearted and the other is ruthless, they can't coexist. If two tigers fight, there will be chaos in Raojiang in the future. This is within my expectations, and I will leave them to Your Highness for the sword sacrifice. The road to becoming a king must start with blood and end with blood. What's the situation in Mobei?" After Yuan Tiangang finished speaking, Qin Yong immediately felt relieved. Sure enough, everything was still under the Marshal's control. Qin Yong cupped his hands and said: "Your Excellency, news has come from Mobei that since Yelu Abaoji changed the Khanship to a hereditary system last year, many nobles in Mobei have rebelled because they are dissatisfied with the hereditary system. However, Yelu Abaoji is a man of extraordinary means. I'm afraid that Mobei will be unified in a few years. Marshal, do you think we should place some people around him in advance to prepare for any emergency?" Yuan Tiangang snorted and said, "Some old guys in Mobei have been hiding in the depths of the Great Snow Mountain and dare not come out. Besides, the great shaman of their tribe also has some tricks. Even if he goes undercover with the disguise skills of the Three Thousand Courts, he will easily be defeated. To deal with those barbarians in Mobei, the simpler the tricks, the better. Spend more gold and silver to bribe those conservative nobles for future use." Talking about restoring the Tang Dynasty and actually taking action are two different things. It is far from enough for Yuan Tiangang and his bad guys to unify the world. If you want to achieve hegemony, you must have your own base. Thinking of this, Yuan Tiangang tapped his fingers on the table three times. "Since Wang Jian and Li Maozhen have agreed to send troops, the border between the two can be used as a buffer for Your Highness to station troops and store food. Jingzhao Prefecture must be taken!" Jingzhao Prefecture, including Chang'an and Daxing, has a total of more than 20 counties and is currently controlled by the Liang State. However, Yuan Tiangang has been operating in Cangbing Valley for 30 years, and the entire Jingzhao Prefecture has been infiltrated by bad people like a sieve. Once Zhu Wen dies and the Liang State is in chaos, then this place can be taken over! Qin Yong was puzzled when he heard this and said, "General, Jingzhao Prefecture and Chang'an were looted when Zhu Wen moved the capital. Now the richest places in the world are Bianjing and Luoyang. Even if we take Jingzhao Prefecture, we are short of soldiers and food. I'm afraid it will take some time to recuperate before we can recover." Swish! Yuan Tiangang looked at his clenched fist and said, "Yes, Jingzhao Prefecture is now much poorer than before, but this place also has the biggest advantage in the whole world. The noble families have been cleared out by the thief Huang Chao, and there are no more rubbish that drags them down. Once Your Highness has a foothold here and plots to take over Qi State and other places, then Guanzhong will be firmly in the hands of Your Highness alone!" "I see!" Qin Yong suddenly realized. He had no good feelings towards those aristocratic families. At this moment, Qin Yong remembered something and asked, "Marshal, are Luoyang following the original plan? According to His Highness, they might want to do something big this time."
Yuan Tiangang waved his hand and said, "Notify Meng Po and start preparing. Your Highness is going to put the knife on Zhu Wen's neck, and he cannot do without the help of his eldest son..." "My subordinate understands!" …… night! Crack... Crack... Li Xingyun, who was sitting cross-legged on the head of the bed, had blue lightning flashing continuously on his body, and there was also golden flames constantly floating in the air. At the same time, there were black and white flames circling around his body. Li Xingyun, who had obtained the complete Five Thunders Heart Sutra and the Supreme Saint Qiankun Gong, plus the Longquan Sword Sutra and Tiangang Jue, and possessed the four great magical skills, jumped from the early stage of the lesser celestial realm to the middle stage of the lesser celestial realm overnight. And this was just the beginning! Wow! A golden flame with blue lightning slowly gathered into an irregular ball in Li Xingyun's hand. "Huh..." Li Xingyun let out a long breath and finally showed a look of relief on his face. After traveling here, he could finally relax his tense heartstrings. The success of the initial plan also gave him greater confidence in the future! In the other room, Ji Ruxue leaned over the table and wrote, "Your Highness, ... So, today Li Xingyun has obtained the Five Thunders Heavenly Heart Art and the Supreme Saint Qiankun Gong, and has received full support from the Heavenly Master's Mansion. Now that the matter in Yuzhou is settled, we will go to Luoyang soon." Just as Ji Ruxue sealed the letter and was about to tie it to the pigeon's leg, a voice suddenly sounded behind her, "How can you be so brief? Add one more sentence." The appearance of Li Xingyun made Ji Ruxue's heart skip a beat. She suppressed the urge to take action. Ji Ruxue couldn't help but ask, "Are you a ghost? You came in without making any sound?" "That means my Qinggong has reached a new level." Li Xingyun seemed to be in a good mood. He snatched the secret letter from Ji Ruxue's hand, took a look at it and smacked his lips, "It's too thin. If I were you, I would have to add one more sentence. Is Yun Ji doing well these days?" "Give it back to me!" Ji Ruxue was a little embarrassed and angry as she tried to snatch it, but her movements were so slow in Li Xingyun's eyes. Li Xingyun turned around and stuck to Ji Ruxue. The two stood back to back. Li Xingyun smiled and said, "I'll give it back to you, but I still have to add this sentence." Li Xingyun leaned against Ji Ruxue and started writing. Ji Ruxue frowned and reached out to grab her, but Li Xingyun was so strong that he pulled Ji Ruxue into his arms. The two leaned over the table in an ambiguous posture. Ji Ruxue was restrained by Li Xingyun's hand in his arms. Not only was she hot all over, but the faint smell of alcohol on Li Xingyun made her feel uneasy. Ji Ruxue said angrily, "Let me go! You are a descendant of the Li Tang Dynasty, but you are so lustful!" "Don't worry." Li Xingyun picked up the pen and added the eight words of greeting. After thinking for a while, he drew a cartoon avatar of himself in the lower right corner of the letter paper. "Tsk, it seems like something is missing? That's right!" Li Xingyun smiled slightly and added a small sun on it. Then he rolled up the secret letter and tied it to the pigeon's leg. "From now on, I will write a secret letter to the empress once a day. Follow this format. Have you remembered it?" "Let me go first!" Ji Ruxue gritted her teeth, her pretty face turning red, not knowing whether it was because of anger or something else. Li Xingyun, who had successfully acquired the magical power, was obviously a little excited today, and even his usual steadiness could not suppress his nature as a playboy. "You have a junior sister by your side, and you're still... thinking about the empress. I didn't expect you to be such a person." Ji Ruxue struggled free and said to Li Xingyun with an angry face. Li Xingyun grabbed Ji Ruxue's shoulders with both hands and said half-jokingly: "What's wrong with the empress? You and I want one too. My women, Li, are like Han Xin selecting soldiers. The more the better! Hahaha, ah...hiss..." "Bah!" Ji Ruxue stepped on Li Xingyun's foot and crushed it hard, saying, "That's a nice thought. The Tang Dynasty hasn't even been revived yet, but you've already started dreaming!" Li Xingyun hugged his feet and smacked his lips, "Are these two things in conflict? If you love the country, does that mean you don't love the beauty? What's the logic behind this?" "You!" Ji Ruxue wanted to refute, but then she thought that this was Li Xingyun. He asked the empress for her, and the empress couldn't even refuse... Li Xingyun, who had recovered his breath, turned his back to Ji Ruxue and said with his hands on his waist: "I, Old Li, want both the kingdom and the beauty!" However, Li Xingyun still knew what to do and what not to do. He waved his hand and said: "Rest early, we have to travel tomorrow." …… Ji Ruxue stared at the open door in a daze. Li Xingyun was very different tonight from usual, as if... was his true nature? "Hmph, you scoundrel... You're just talking nonsense!" A low cry brought tonight's drama to an end. Ji Ruxue leaned against the door and looked at the full moon outside the window. She was a little absent-minded for a moment... Thanks to Rui King for the reward, thanks to book friend 2021030110402434018 for the reward, and thanks to both big guys!
