The people all stood on the street and watched. Whether these pedestrians were out for fun or going to do something urgent, they tried to stay on both sides of the road.
A large number of Jiangzhou troops escorted large vehicles out of Qingshan City and headed north.
Qingshan City was built according to the mountains. Looking down from a high place, you can see that the motorcade is winding like a giant python, with no end in sight.
The people were all whispering, and the topic was nothing more than... Mr. Liu, are you really going to raise an army?
At this time, some scholars explained, saying, "Don't you understand the notice?"
I don’t understand the three words, which is pride.
Most ordinary people had never read a book, and they couldn't even learn the pretentious Mandarin, not to mention how to read, so they invited him to read it one after another.
Then the people suddenly realized that Mr. Liu had no intention of rebellion at all.
His Majesty's decree has arrived in Jiangzhou. Lin Ye, the general of the Cowardly Army, led his troops to station in Dengzhou. The required food and grass supplies were paid by Jiangzhou.
If Mr. Liu wanted to rebel, how could he possibly send Jiangzhou grain and grass to Dengzhou?
Then someone took advantage of the situation and provoked, saying that this was all intentional by Chaotian. The cowardly army was stationed in Dengzhou and Dengzhou did not provide food. Why did we let Jiangzhou provide food?
As a result, the people cursed the court one after another.
After enough scolding, someone started talking about the strange things in Luyun Alley. In recent days, I always heard the sound of tigers and leopards in Luyun Alley, which scared people so much that they couldn't even sleep well.
Some people say that the sound of tigers and leopards is just that. There is a louder sound, which sounds like a huge ship breaking through the waves, which is even more scary.
Some people thought that the Green Barbarians drove dozens of carts into the city before, and it turned out that this was the Green Barbarians' most brag-worthy tamed beast.
.
At this time, various rumors were abuzz in Qingshan City, and no one was sure which one was true and which one was false.
But people are terrified and can’t fake it.
Among the crowd, Luo Jinci frowned slightly.
He had heard rumors before that Liu Tingsheng was going to send troops and then hand over Jiangzhou to the barbarians to govern, so the people were very angry.
This matter is by no means groundless.
But what's unusual about this is that Liu Tingsheng's people will definitely not spread such rumors, so Luo Jinci speculates that there are still people from the imperial court in Qingshan City.
The war hasn't started yet, and various rumors seem to have exploded in Qingshan City. In fact, it is Liu Tingsheng and General Lin Ye who are fighting.
Therefore, Luo Jinci was more in awe of Lin Ye, and he also understood more clearly that General Lin Ye had many experts available to him. If he came to Qingshan City and failed, he might not have the face to go back to see the general.
"Find out a way to find out about the green beast soldiers, and... Yun Shengchu will continue to keep an eye on them."
Luo Jinci said: "I always feel that something will happen over there at Yunsheng, but there are no signs."
The fat eunuch nodded, did not respond, and walked away into the crowd.
On the other side of the crowd, several masters of the Ruyi Sword Sect stared at them without showing anything. Seeing that the fat man and the feminine young man were separated, they also stared separately.
On the surface, Qingshan City looks calm, but in fact, there are undercurrents. If any force cannot restrain itself and takes action first, it will stir up waves.
In a restaurant on the street, Quaqima leaned on the railing and looked down. The endless motorcade made him annoyed.
"Is Uncle Liu crazy?"
Quachima said to herself: "So
I don’t know what he thinks about sending more food to the enemy. "
Nie Lingshan, who was sitting next to him, took the opportunity to say: "I'm afraid I don't dare to disobey the imperial court's will. I don't want to give it, but I don't dare not to give it. It's a pity. There are so many good things, at least some of them should be given to Teller."
Hearing this, Quaqima's expression became even more grim.
"Did Liu Tingsheng trick us?"
He muttered to himself.
He was called Uncle Liu before, but now he calls him by his first name. This barbarian's character cannot hide his emotions at all.
Nie Lingshan said: "I don't know how to play tricks. Master Liu should be delaying the attack and send some food and grass to Lin Ye first so that Lin Ye can relax his vigilance."
Speaking of this, he reminded with a kind face: "I think Mr. Liu may not keep his word. Teller's troops may not really be able to take over Jiangzhou. Maybe he wants Teller to lead the troops to attack. Cowardly army."
After listening to the translation, Quaqima said: "Let's fight. I'm still afraid of war?"
A look of arrogance.
Nie Lingshan said: "Of course Teller is not afraid of fighting. Although it is a cowardly army that claims to have never been defeated, and it has also killed millions of Lou Fan's troops, it is definitely not as good as Lord Teller's heroic army."
"But... there are 100,000 people in the Qingmang army. Teller brings 50,000 soldiers this time. Even if they kill all the Qingmang troops, the white barbarian army will suffer a lot. If the green barbarians do this, , wouldn’t that be better?”
When Quaqima heard this, she felt it was particularly reasonable.
Zhu Xiaozhu added jealousy beside him: "Whoever Mr. Liu asks to do this is not to take anyone seriously and let Luman do it. Of course, he values Baiman. Let Baiman do it. Of course, he values Luman. "
Nie
Lingshan smiled and said: "I suddenly remembered something. It was just a joke. I don't know whether I should say it or not."
Quachima glared at him: "You two are my good friends. Is there anything you can't say to a good friend?"
Nie Lingshan lowered his voice and said: "Although Jiangzhou is a prosperous place, once it is really captured by Teller, the Dayu court will definitely send troops to attack. At that time, it is impossible to say how many people will die. Even if they can barely defend it, the fields will be destroyed. , the houses were burned down, and the city collapsed, leaving it in ruins, what’s the use of defending it?”
When the translator, Dong Doha, heard these words, he felt that Mr. Nie was indeed a thoughtful person.
After hearing this, Quaqima was obviously touched. He was stupid, but not really stupid.
Zhu Xiaozhu sighed: "If the Green Barbarians can be prompted to send out troops to fight to the death with the cowardly army, and Teller goes back with 50,000 elite soldiers and annihilates the Green Barbarians in one go, the territory gained by then will be larger than Jiangzhou. Moreover, You won’t have to worry about retaliation from Dayu’s court.”
After hearing these words, I understand that Mr. Zhu is also thoughtful.
"No more playing!"
After hearing this, Quaqima seemed to have thought of something, turned around and left: "I'm tired, go back to sleep!"
After he left, Nie Lingshan and Zhu Xiaozhu looked at each other and said to themselves that that idiot really couldn't even lie.
Judging from the way Quaqima left in a hurry with her people, she knew that the idiot was going to see the great wizard Baiman.
"If we can really provoke Quaqima to attack the Green Barbarians, will we be able to leave a mark in history?"
"Don't worry, no matter how much we do, our reputation will not belong to us. At most, it will be brushed aside in the annals of history."
The two of them looked at each other, but neither of them
Some thought this was unfair and even laughed.
"That's great."
"Yeah, let's just keep silent and make a fortune. If there are really long and lengthy records in the damn history books, we can't get away with taking dirty money from both sides."
"rational!"
"The credit goes to the general!"
"That's right!"
"What should we do next?"
"Want to listen to some music?"
"Change to an oiran?"
"Walk!"
The two left happily.
After they left, a person wearing a green shirt and a black gauze covering her face came out of the next room. Even through the black gauze, you could see her frown.
This man is tall and thin, with a fat green shirt, but you can tell by the wind that he is definitely not a man.
There are men with thin waists, but there are definitely not those with thin waists, big hips and fat buttocks.
The woman in green clothes disguised as a man seemed to be hesitating whether to tell Liu Tingsheng such a thing, or...
After thinking for a while, she left quietly.
At the same time, in the spacious backyard of Ruyi Sword Sect.
At least hundreds of Jianghu people gathered here. They looked at each other and I looked at you. No one knew what it meant to be suddenly summoned.
Some people say that it was related to Master Liu delivering food to the Cowardly Army. He probably gave in to the imperial court, so when they came this time, they probably had nothing to do but thunder and rain.
While they were whispering, an elder from the Ruyi Sword Sect walked slowly over. The whispers stopped immediately, and everyone looked at the old man with extraordinary bearing.
After being in contact for a while, they all got to know this person. His name was Zhao Fengnian, and he was the third most important figure in the Ruyi Sword Sect.
"Everyone."
Zhao Fengnian walked to a high place, raised his hand and pressed down
Pressed, the crowd became even quieter, waiting for him to continue.
"I have been sorry for you all in the past few days. Mr. Liu has some very important things for you to do, but the exact date has not been set yet. In order not to leak the news, I can only ask you to stay here temporarily."
"In a moment, the disciples of the Sword Sect will set up tents for you in the backyard. All your daily needs will be provided by the Sword Sect."
"besides......"
Zhao Fengnian looked into the distance and saw a group of Sword Sect disciples carrying many large boxes.
"Each of you will receive a set of clothes. When Master Liu's order arrives, you will have to change your clothes before going out. Remember this."
Everyone started talking again, but they couldn't figure out what they were going to do.
At the foot of Qingcheng Mountain.
Ding Luoshan lowered his head and looked at the jade bottle in his hand, his expression tangled.
She wanted to bring this jade bottle to the priest of the Dali Sect, but she was afraid that the master would doubt her after seeing it.
Extremely confused.
She didn't know how long she had been here, but she seemed to have made up her mind and looked around to make sure no one had noticed her, then she quickened her pace and rushed towards the place where Nie Wuzhi was hiding.
About a few dozen feet behind her, by the window on the second floor of a teahouse, Wei Pu, who was wearing a robe and covering his face, was frowning. She kept staring at Ding Luoshan's back, but in those eyes, there was No emotion.
Another half an hour later, Wei Pu appeared at the Zhouzhi Mansion.
When Liu Tingsheng saw Wei Pu arriving, he smiled and motioned for her to sit down and talk.
"Sect Master's visit to me now has something to do with Deputy Sect Master Ding?"
Liu Tingsheng didn't hide anything when he spoke, the meaning revealed in his words was...
.....Don't think that I don't know anything. Nothing about the Ruyi Sword Sect can be hidden from me.
Wei Pu nodded and said, "I don't need to worry about Ding Luoshan's matter. It's an internal matter of our Sword Sect and I will handle it myself."
Liu Tingsheng said: "Of course I will not interfere in the affairs of the sect leader. As long as you don't miss the big event in a few days, I don't care whether you kill her or do something else."
Wei Pu said: "Aren't you afraid, if you don't do it well, it will be counterproductive?"
Liu Tingsheng said: "Do you know who is the best and worst person to cheat in the world?"
Wei Pu shook his head.
Liu Tingsheng said: "People's hearts."
He walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his back.
"If I can't even grasp the hearts and minds of the people close at hand, what qualifications do I have to win the hearts and minds of the people all over the world..."
Liu Tingsheng said: "It's time to let the other news go out. Now, we need to use Lumasi."
Wei Pu said: "Everything is as per your orders."
So, not long after, news spread quietly in Qingshan City, and soon it became a flood, spreading throughout the streets and alleys of Qingshan City.
It turns out that so many Jianghu people coming from outside recently have nothing to do with Mr. Zhouzhi, and I don’t know who summoned them. He is trying to control them.
Suddenly, the dark clouds seemed to be getting denser and denser above the Qingshan City.
