The storm is coming, and no storm can be hidden, especially those old foxes who have been fighting for their whole lives.
In the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion in Jiangning City, Ninth Commander Zeng Guoquan is now the most powerful person in Jiangnan. He has inherited the last power of the Hunan Army and has become the leader of the Hunan Army after his brother.
He is already old, and has lost the ambition he had in the past since his brother passed away. He would never dream of becoming an emperor, but as a military and political official who has controlled Jiangnan for decades, he has a natural affinity for conspiracy. Vigilance.
Ever since the famine started in the North, he has sensed the danger here!
"Fuck! I think I'm blind. Such obvious battles have been laid out. If there is no ghost in it, then I am a ghost!"
"Eagle...what information did the spies you planted in the North send back?"
"Hey! The secret telegram sent back by the spies from the North is very strange. The victims of the four provinces seem to have been commanded, and they are all converging on Zhili, and their destination is the Gyeonggi region!"
"Maybe it's all for the capital's food..."
"Haha... what food? This so-called famine is a lie! Haven't you encountered several famines in your life? Although snow disasters are terrifying, they are never fatal!"
"Since the beginning of history, what we in China are most afraid of and what causes the greatest harm are actually floods and droughts!"
"Floods destroy homes, drown people, engulf farmland, and finally bring plagues... This kind of disaster is the most difficult to control, especially the Yellow River floods are even more terrifying!"
"Then there's the drought. Sometimes droughts in Chidi Qianli last for a year or two, and all the people's food reserves are consumed, and even people cannibalize them!"
"Snow disaster is nothing! Among all disasters, snow disaster lasts the shortest and has the fewest deaths..."
"Because snow disasters only happen in winter, which is not the time for farming, and people just have a year's worth of grain in their hands! No matter how heavy the snow is, it won't last until summer!"
"What's more important is that the snowstorm will bring melted water and good soil moisture, so the crops will grow better and the summer grain harvest may be bumper!"
"Such a disaster is just a few months of chaos..."
"But... but there are indeed tens of millions of disaster victims in the north now?" Eagle asked rhetorically.
"That's a man-made disaster! It's a man-made disaster! In this disaster, the destructive power of rumors is much greater than that of food! Do you still remember the song "The Mouse is Good"?
"Don't try to hide it from me. There is a conspiracy behind such prophecies. It is impossible without anyone instigating it...Who is amplifying fear?"
"Haha... apart from Xiling, there can be no one else!"
"Ah! Prince Gong's little trick?" Eagle thought for a while and it was really possible. "Prince Gong can't stand his loneliness anymore and will finally take action!"
The Ninth Commander opened the window and took a few deep breaths. "During the winter, didn't Ito, the subordinate officer of the Chinese prince, come to visit me? At that time, he spoke in a strange manner, and there was something wrong..."
“Although it’s not stated explicitly, it’s really fitting the situation up to this point!”
"Haha... Some people in the Chinese clan are anxious. Xiao Letian is not anxious. They are anxious. They are hoping that the Manchus will die soon!"
Eagle pondered for a moment, "My subordinate is stupid and can't understand it anymore. If you have any orders, please give me the commander-in-chief's orders. I will obey my orders..."
"Orders? No, no, no... there are no orders. I'm old and don't want to move anymore. I'll beat whoever I love, but I'll just watch the show quietly!"
"The current situation in East Asia no longer belongs to our Zeng family! But no one in our Zeng family dares to underestimate it!"
"Whether it's the Japanese who take advantage or the Chinese who finally win the throne... we brothers can still keep our wealth!"
"Haha, you want me to join you... You win first and let me see your strength, otherwise there is no need to talk!"
"Pass me an order... I have found out that there is a riot in Jiangnan's treasury that is harmful to the public and private affairs. From now on, I will start checking the accounts! All treasury must wait for the audit before they can be opened!"
"I always have to sell the face of the Chinese prince, isn't it just to let me delay transporting grain for a while? Then just delay it. It is estimated that in a few days, the land and water transportation in the north will be cut off..."
"By the way, where is the old farmer now? Do you still have contact? My eldest brother told me before he died that we must take care of the old farmer. We can't ignore him!"
Eagle smiled and said, "Brother Nong, he is happier than us! After the death of the commander, he became a free agent and went to the Far East Kingdom to meet the King of the Far East!"
"The King of the Far East spent his own money to establish the Chinese Jingwu Sect, which is known as the world's first martial arts university and invites elites from all over the world to teach!"
"Brother Nong Da sent me a telegram before! It briefly introduced the motto of their Jingwu University... Take a look!"
Jiu Shuai suddenly became interested and took the telegram and read the text inside carefully.
China Jingwu Sect, also known as Jingwu University, is the only martial arts university in Asia, including the world, with the mission of discovering, protecting and passing on the martial arts of martial arts all over the world.
Xiang Shaolong founded Jingwu University to break through the closed sect walls of the past!
Xiang Shaolong, who was born in the green forest, is very clear about the reasons why martial arts families in the past cherished their broomsticks. In the past, martial arts students would rather let many of their unique skills be discontinued than teach them to disciples. The reasons are as follows.
First, martial arts has been mainly practical since ancient times. Many sects are local tycoons or even generals. Martial arts skills are their trump card for conquering the world. They cannot just pass them on to others to create enemies!
Regarding this point, the King of the Far East explained very clearly that in the future, cannons and muskets will be the main means of killing people. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you will have nothing to do when encountering a new type of army.
It’s time to throw away the delusion of hoping to conquer the world by practicing martial arts.
Second, the disciples of the church starve to death of the master. Many sects prefer family inheritance and do not like to teach to outsiders. This is a very cruel rule of survival.
Not only martial arts, but also many medical skills, handicrafts, carpenters, masons... They are unwilling to pass on their unique skills to outsiders, for fear of teaching competitors.
On this point, Jingwu University will also dispel your doubts. After entering Jingwu University, your life will naturally be taken care of by the university, and you will have your salary and income.
Isn't it better to be a professor than to perform tricks on the street? It’s still more than the tuition fees you charge for taking on an apprentice!
As long as you have special skills, Jingwu Sect will give you an iron rice bowl that will last you a lifetime and put your worries to rest.
Third, these martial arts professors at Jingwu University all have status, and are recognized by the Chinese as an iron rice bowl. This is a social identity recognition.
You are no longer a pariah, you are already a professor at the university, and as long as you are willing to work hard to teach and improve your martial arts... once the military adopts your moves!
Your status can be raised to that of a Chinese army instructor, and your income and status will be improved even more. It is not impossible to be knighted if you have great merit!
"Oh... he's so awesome... I didn't expect that this young dragon would not only be able to fight, but also build a university? I really underestimated him before!"
"Send a congratulatory message to Xiang Shaolong and the old farmer, and tell me when his university will be listed! I still want to give you the face of congratulations!"
