Zong Zhengxian sat down in the big tent and glanced at the few people who had followed him. These people were all the confidants he had to rely on now.
Among them was the city lord of Shenlu City, Hechi Niandu. After all, this was on the territory of Southern Xinjiang. Hechi Niandu had been in charge of Shenlu City for many years and was quite powerful in this area.
"What do you think of the man named my ancestor?"
Zong Zhengxianhe asked with a deep expression after he sat down. It was obvious that he didn't have much trust in Lin Ye.
Hechi Niandu immediately said: "Your Highness, if you ask me to say that this person's origin is somewhat unknown, I still can't believe it. Even if he is left here for use, more people should be sent to keep an eye on him."
Zong Zhengxian glanced at him and said, "Why else would I agree to his unreasonable request? He actually picked two of my maids, but this kind of person... doesn't seem to have any scheming intentions. "
He Chi Niandu said: "This... On the contrary, if this person is somewhat scheming, he would not dare to pick off His Highness's maid. However, maybe he doesn't know?"
Zong Zhengxian said: "If he is really a scheming person, can he tell that those two maids are unusual?"
He Chi Niandu only wanted to get back his Sun-Splitting Divine Bow, and he wished he could encourage Zong Zheng Xianhe to kill the man named Wuzu right now.
But it seems that Zongzheng Xianhe doesn't mean this, but he still doesn't believe in my ancestor, but he has to use it.
"Watch him for a few days. If he is really an ignorant little person who happens to be able to use a magic bow, then keep him by your side. If this kind of person is not pretending, he can be easily controlled."
Zong Zheng smiled prominently and said: "If this is God's will, then the good days of Lianhai Little Thief may really be coming to an end."
That's often the case with people.
In good times, I generally feel like I have no control over my destiny, and God will kill the Gods and Buddhas. Nothing can stop me from being happy and happy.
People tend to become superstitious in times of adversity, and even the slightest good thing will be regarded as a good omen.
Zong Zhengxian was in such a state now that he was no longer the one with the best chance of becoming emperor.
Nowadays, all the major families and tribes are waiting and watching. Although on the surface it seems that they are not helping anyone, in fact, not helping anyone is exactly helping Zongzheng's prominent opponent.
Because the little Lianhai he had always looked down on has now received the support of several major forces.
The scariest thing is of course the Loutai family.
"I hope the master in charge of Yunshang Temple will come over, and then I won't have to worry anymore."
Zong Zhengxianhe paused for a moment and looked at the person standing closest to him.
"Luo Zhi, how many troops have you recruited so far?"
Luo Zhi was a close confidant of Zong Zheng Xianhe, and he followed Zong Zheng Xianhe when he first led the army. This man was not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also very capable in leading troops.
Just because of his humble background, he was not reused by the Loufan court. Especially when Zong Zheng Shiquan didn't trust Zong Zheng Xian very much, Luo Zhi, who came from Zong Zheng Xian's family, had no future.
This time the prominent Zongzheng wanted to recruit troops to seize the throne, and Luo Zhi contributed the most.
Because he knew very well that if he could not follow His Royal Highness King Lu to seize the throne, then he would only die. Zongzheng Lianhai would never give up on killing Zongzheng Xinghe.
"Return to your highness."
Luo Zhi said: "There are a lot of soldiers recruited now. The number of brave soldiers recruited from the counties under the rule of Shenlu City has reached 200,000. If we give it another three to five days, it may be doubled."
Zong Zhengxian nodded with satisfaction.
In terms of numbers, he was very satisfied, but he also knew that these 200,000 people did not understand what fighting was at all.
They were all forcibly kidnapped villagers, with a large number of strong men but no training foundation. If these soldiers fought bravely to win a battle, once they were frustrated, they would be defeated like a mountain.
"We don't have much time."
Zong Zhengxian said: "Within a month, the army must move out. If the little thief Lianhai is given more time, he may bring back the border troops from the northern border."
Now in Loufan, the organization is still complete, the troops are still abundant, and there are only two places left that are good at fighting.
One is the imperial army in the capital, numbering about 50,000 people, and the other is the border army in northern Xinjiang, numbering about hundreds of thousands.
The total number of border troops in the eastern and western frontiers is about 100,000, which is difficult to mobilize.
There are also organized soldiers and horses, most of which are in the hands of the major tribes. Nowadays, the major tribes are not at ease, and the fighting is also very lively.
Outside of Northern Xinjiang, Loufan is not without any threats. Although there are no ferocious tigers, there are wolves everywhere.
Once Lou Fan brings back the northern border troops, those small countries that have had enough of Lou Fan's oppression may not dare to unite and invade the borders.
"I'll leave the training and recruitment to you. You should work harder."
Zong Zhengxian said to Luo Zhi: "Although one month is short, I believe that with your ability, you can train the new soldiers."
Luo Zhi also had troubles that he couldn't express.
In one month, train a group of common people who have never known what fighting is into soldiers? Not to mention him, even if the gods came, it would be impossible for him to do it.
"My lord, do your best."
"It's not about trying your best, it's about doing it."
Zong Zhengxian said: "I will hand over all my troops to you, you must not let me down."
Luo Zhi had no choice but to lean in again: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will train the army well."
Zong Zhengxian nodded and said, "Go and do your work. You don't have to worry about other things."
Speaking of this, he looked at He Chi Niandu, the lord of Shenlu City: "I left the military food and supplies matter to you, how did you do?"
Hechi Niandu said quickly: "Back to Your Highness, I have tried my best. Not a grain of food has been left in Shenlu City. All the food from the states and counties under Shenlu City are on the way. It will definitely arrive in less than a month." "
Zong Zhengxian asked him: "Can it support an army of 400,000 or 500,000 for three months? It would be best if it would be needed for half a year."
He scolded Niandu and stopped talking.
He also had troubles that he couldn't express.
When the army of one million people marched south, they had already plundered Shenlu City. All the excess grain, grass, cattle and sheep were forcibly taken away by the army.
Now, let alone cattle and sheep, there are not even a few chickens and ducks in Shenlu City.
Seeing that He Chi Niandu didn't answer, Zongzheng Xianhe also knew that this matter was difficult to handle, so he just gave a few words of encouragement.
"Just do your best. Remember, don't be afraid of offending anyone now. If we win, we won't be afraid of offending anyone. If we lose temporarily, who will we be afraid of offending?"
When He Chi Niandu heard it, it seemed that this was indeed the case.
He really didn't want to have a bad relationship with the tribes in Shenlu City before, so he didn't press too hard.
Now it seems that people are bound to be offended anyway, so it is better to offend them to the end. If you win in the future, you will be compensated, and if you lose, everyone will die together.
"Your Highness, don't worry."
Hechi Niandu patted his chest and promised, "I will send people out now to try to collect more food and supplies."
Zong Zhengxian made a hum, raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his eyebrows: "I am indeed a little tired today. You guys can discuss other matters. In short, the army must march to the capital within a month. Who has delayed this important matter? , I will chop off whose head."
"yes!"
The group of people under him agreed uniformly, then bowed and left.
After everyone left, Zong Zhengxianhe called in his personal soldier, the captain.
This man's name was Bu Di Sang. Like Luo Zhi, he had followed Zong Zheng when he was a prominent young man leading the army.
However, Budi Sang was more shrewd and tactful, so Zong Zhengxian always stayed by his side.
"What is that man named my ancestor doing?"
Zong Zhengxianhe asked, rubbing his eyebrows.
Budisang replied: "Since Lulin and Bainiao entered his tent, they have not been idle. Either he was calling or Lulin and Bainiao were calling."
Hearing these words, Zong Zhengxian's face darkened.
Although the two maids were not his personal maids, they were also chosen by him personally. Lu Lin and Bai Niao were not very young when they followed him, and he had planned to keep them for later.
As a result, the flowers that I had finally grown up were picked by my ancestor for no reason.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
On weekdays, because there is no shortage of women around him, Zongzheng is prominent and he doesn't like young girls, so he doesn't pay much attention to the two maids, but that's because he doesn't want to.
He didn't care now, it was too late.
When I think of Lulina
A pair of slender and straight legs, and when he thought of Shiratiao's two round and plump breasts, he became even more angry and wanted to slap the table.
"You never came out?"
Zong Zhengxianhe asked angrily.
Budisang was equally angry.
He also took a fancy to those two maids. He planned to ask the prince to reward him with these two maids after they had made great achievements in the future, not to mention two, but one would be fine.
He likes both of those women, and he once struggled with this. If he has made meritorious service, but the prince doesn't want to give him both, which one does he want?
Everyone feels satisfied with either one, but they all feel at a loss.
Now he doesn't have to worry about it. The ancestor who appeared for no reason has taken both of them.
When His Highness King Lu asked him if he had never come out, Budi Sang was so angry that his teeth itched with hatred. At this moment, when he thought of my ancestor's face, he wanted to bite it.
"Never...never came out."
"Lu Lin and Bai Niao haven't come out either?"
"without......"
"It's been almost two hours, has it really not stopped?"
"yes......"
Zong Zhengxianhe cursed in his heart, saying that he would definitely cut my ancestor into pieces in order to vent his anger. Now that you are needed, I will let you be arrogant for now.
Actually, Lin Ye can't be blamed for this. He wanted to spy on my ancestor, so he asked Lu Lin and Bai Niao to go to the group of maids and wait for my ancestor to choose. If my ancestor was chosen, then let them both. A surveillance forest leaf, if you can't pick it, it doesn't matter.
"You go out first."
Zong Zhengxianhe waved his hand impatiently: "I'm very tired today. If there's nothing important, don't disturb me at night. I want to have a good sleep and we'll talk about everything tomorrow morning."
Bu Di Sang responded and went out to guard outside.
The single-room tent that Lin Ye lived in was actually not that far away from the big tent. With his cultivation in the Immortal Realm, he could clearly hear what the people in the big tent said, and it didn't delay what he was doing. .
Asking Bai Niao to wash his feet was not over yet. He suddenly became interested again and asked Bai Niao to ask the soldiers outside to bring another large bucket of water. He asked the two maids to scrub his body.
Lin Ye thought that it was really hard for me to play the role of an idiot with no knowledge.
Could he have done this kind of thing before?
After Bai Niao helped Lin Ye take off his clothes, his face couldn't help but change. He immediately turned red like a ripe peach.
Although they have to receive training in this area as the prince's maids, they have never seen the real thing.
Just scrubbing, she could only turn her head and not look, but Lu Lin couldn't help but peek at it one by one.
Originally, they thought they could just deal with it casually, but they didn't expect that Lin Ye would catch them for not being serious, so now they had to fight back to catch Lin Ye.
Alas, injustice is repaid.
However, this man's body is really... so beautiful, majestic, and slender. It looks like the most perfect work carved by the most powerful master sculptor, without any flaws.
Lu Lin was older, so she took the initiative to take on most of the tasks. Bai Niao was shy, but couldn't really do nothing.
Lu Lin was more courageous. She was a little uncomfortable being teased by Lin Ye before, but now she seemed to have accepted her fate. She was responsible for finding out what happened.
Shiratiao was shy and couldn't let go. With such a personality, he hesitated when talking or anything else, but he persisted.
Early the next morning, Lin Ye stretched out after leaving the tent.
The sun is so nice and so is the sky.
He felt that his limbs were healthy and his heart was beautiful.
Although it is acting, the fake act must be done for real.
He saw the captain who had been on duty all night. Why were the dark circles under Bu Di Sang's eyes so heavy?
It seemed like he really did his job and didn't sleep a wink all night.
At this moment, Zongzheng Xianhe also lifted the door curtain and came out, stretching like Lin Ye.
But why did he come out with a pair of dark circles under his eyes?
Lin Ye said with emotion: "Your Highness is really worried about the empire. Fortunately, I was also worried about it last night."
Zongzheng Xianhe subconsciously touched his waist knife.
