Guan Zhong paused and continued: "However, Qingzhou is also troubled by disasters. In recent years, there have been disasters one after another, which has led to it becoming the main place of the Yellow Turban Uprising. The years of chaos have made the politics here desolate, the crops deserted, and bandits swarming everywhere. , the reason is that the general system has been weakened and the people cannot survive, so they can only rise up. Moreover, due to various internal and external troubles, the place has been in constant turmoil and fallen into an endless cycle of chaos! Just now Yuan Zhi said, just regular bandits There are seven to eight million people, as well as bandits roaming around and mountain bandits who have taken over as kings. Qingzhou alone supports tens of millions of vicious bandits! And this place has become a scorched earth. People need to eat food, so these bandits The people plundered the land cleanly and there was no oil or water left, so they invaded the surrounding states and counties, and this trend will become more and more rampant, so many nobles in Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Jizhou and Yangzhou are already restless!"
"Stability! I understand, sir, what you mean is that without food and order, all the people in Qingzhou will become bandits. As long as the situation gradually stabilizes, there will be fewer bandits in Qingzhou. If Qingzhou is governed, the bandits will naturally disappear!" Qin Ge suddenly snapped the case. He stood up and gave a thumbs up to Guan Zhong.
Tian Feng and Xu Shu were a little confused, but Kinderman seemed to understand something. Why did Qin Ge feel that the more he listened to Guan Zhong's words, the more familiar he became, because Xun Yu once said similar words to him!
Unexpectedly, Qin Ge could understand his strategic intentions so quickly, which really surprised Guan Zhong. It seemed that he had underestimated the lord. He was not a brainless man, and his strategic vision was shocking.
Seeing that Xu Shu and Tian Feng were still in the dark, Qin Ge smiled awkwardly and said: "Sir, continue, I was too excited just now and lost my composure! I lost my composure!"
Guan Zhong's face remained as usual, and he said meaningfully: "I hope my lord will lose his composure more often!" After saying that, his thoughts turned back and said: "Qingzhou bandits are swarming, but they are all a group of looters, except for the yellow scarf bandits of Xingyao who are slightly Paying attention to the development of people's livelihood, other bandit leaders only know how to dominate the mountains and rob the people everywhere. Many powerful people and nobles have to form private armed forces to protect themselves. These people are civilians in peaceful times, but they become bandits in disaster years! This is especially true for the people of Qingzhou. The bandits who caused trouble in Qingzhou are still ordinary people in essence. As long as they have enough food and clothing, no one will become a bandit! Therefore, conquering Qingzhou does not rely on a strong army, but on a peaceful and prosperous era!"
Only then did everyone understand what Guan Zhong meant. Guan Zhong wanted Qin Ge to enter Qingzhou not as a crusade against bandits, but as an attitude to build Qingzhou and restore people's livelihood. By then, as long as the people have enough food and clothing, countless bandits will become Countless obedient people!
Guan Zhong continued: "Of course, if you want to gain a foothold in Qingzhou, you need a strong army to rely on! This is the second benefit of my lord becoming the governor of Qingzhou. In this national war, many soldiers fought bloody battles, and there were many brave heroes. They enthusiastically joined the army, but many people died on the battlefield. Due to their humble origins, these warriors who survived were very few able to receive awards! And the lord can take the opportunity to ask for credit for them. You must know that many official positions in the yamen of counties and counties in Qingzhou are now almost There is a vacuum, and even if the imperial court appoints, no one dares to come here to serve. It just so happens that the lord can ask the imperial court to let these soldiers get rewards. On the one hand, he can recruit a large number of brave warriors for his own use, and on the other hand, he can build a new army in Qingzhou. Establish a system team that is completely loyal to you, my lord, and thus establish a governing system that belongs to you, which will have immeasurable strategic value for my lord’s future development!”
Qin Ge's eyes lit up when he heard this, he put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "Just because of this, I finally have an explanation to my brothers!"
A smile appeared on Guan Zhong's lips, and he continued: "According to my estimation, it will take at least five years to conquer Qingzhou. This way, I can keep my lord's reputation alive and well-known throughout the world, and also escape the upcoming political disputes in the court. In the military, you are the disciple of the great general, and you have always won a good reputation for him. In the world, you are a strong general of the court. You are fighting for the powerful nobles to conquer the bandits and safeguarding the world's peace. When Qingzhou is pacified, my lord, your prestige and control will The power of Qingzhou will be the foundation for you to enter the court! Of course, by then, the world may have begun to be in chaos!"
After saying that, he cupped his fists and smiled at Tian Feng and Xu Shu and said: "As for how to conquer Qingzhou, I am new here. I still need to discuss with Mr. Yuan Zhi and Yuan Hao to formulate a detailed strategy plan!" Xu Shu and Tian Feng heard this He quickly smiled at Guan Zhong.
After hearing this, Kinderman looked at the crowd and said: "It seems that everyone agrees with your husband's strategy. I don't think anyone has any objections. Then I suggest you follow Mr. Guan Zhong's strategy. By the way! I also hope that the three gentlemen will write a letter to the court." When writing a petition for war, the tone should be extremely sincere, expressing gratitude for the nurturing grace of the Holy Emperor and the General, but it should be written in a crude way! Those nobles and rotten scholars like to hear this tone the most!"
Guan Zhong and the other three looked at each other in shock when they heard this, while Qin Ge held his hands and laughed.
Kinderman turned back to Qin Ge and said: "Husband, as for the Yuan brothers sending their confidants to visit, we can take the opportunity to blackmail them. Anyway, these noble children have a lot of money, and it is a good thing to make more money!"
Qin Ge felt funny when he heard this, but Kinderman's words were a good idea.
…
In the Karasuma tribe, in front of the Golden Wolf tent, Lian Zhao was leading his tribe to worship the Sirius God. They were leaving this homeland, and Tadun, covered in bandages, knelt in front of the tribe where their ancestors had lived for countless years. land.
At this time, Wu Yan led a group of warriors to escort Lou Ban over. He saw that Lou Ban's body was as dry as a bone. This was a sign that his blood had been taken away.
According to the rules of the Karasuma tribe, he committed crimes and killed his brothers and sisters. According to the rules of the Karasuma tribe, his bloodline was stripped and he was expelled from the tribe!
Tadun stood up from the ground, looked at Lou Ban with a gloomy face and said: "Da Shan Yu is merciful, spare your life, from now on, you will be expelled from the Karasuma tribe! Get out!"
Lou Ban climbed up from the ground with difficulty. Without saying a word, he mounted a war horse beside him and rode away. His skinny figure could fall down at any time, but his figure gradually disappeared into the horizon.
Tadun watched Lou Ban go away quietly, knowing that this farewell might be forever, and that Lou Ban would not be able to live long in his condition.
Qianzhao raised his wolf flag and roared: "From now on, we will move south and become Han people. From now on, there will be no Karasuma tribe. I hope the tribesmen will cherish the continued vitality of the tribe that countless warriors have exchanged for it! Let's go!"
After leading the troops and riding their horses, Taton and a group of Karasuma generals mounted their horses to follow. After attacking the Goryeo coalition, there were now less than 200,000 Karasuma tribal rangers left. It can be said that they suffered heavy losses!
However, many women and children of Karasuma survived. The Karasuma tribe now has a population of more than two million, and they began to migrate to Youbeiping in a mighty manner, where they were brought back to Qingzhou to settle down on the ships arranged by Qin Ge.
…
At the vanguard camp on the left, next to the main tent of the Chinese army, two figures were quickly entangled.
Qin Ge was seen holding a white jade sword in one hand and a tiger sword in the other. He had transformed into the body of an ancestral dragon and was fighting fiercely with Xu Tu in front of the military tent.
The tiger soul was wrapped with thick chains, and the huge blade was burning with blazing flames. Under Qin Ge's dance, it looked like a giant bird soaring with wings spread, which was exactly the shape of the Qin family's Suzaku.
The Suzaku shape is famous for its explosive power. The tiger soul has the ultimate power of Qin Ge. It has a huge power when it is swung. Coupled with the continuous burst of flames, it actually makes Xu Tu retreat continuously!
While the tiger soul sword is powerful and powerful, the white jade sword is like a spiritual snake. The sword body is wrapped in a ball of pure white Confucianism. The dance of the white jade sword is filled with the thunder and power of the Tianwei Seal. Each sword strikes out the true energy of Xu Tu's blade. was directly shaken away.
"Boom!" With a roar, Xu Tu flew backwards and made a big hole in the ground.
Qin Ge stopped, stuck the knife and sword on the ground, and pulled Xu Tu up from the ground. He was already covered in sweat. Waving the Tiger Soul Sword was very tiring.
Moreover, while performing the Suzaku Form, one has to use Confucianism to communicate with the soul to perform magic and the power of heaven, which consumes a lot of mental energy.
However, now that Qin Ge's Eighty-nine Mysterious Techniques have been successfully established, they resonate with his Shilong Xingyun Jue, and Qin Ge integrates it into the sword martial arts he honed during the National War.
Because he absorbed nine powerful souls, Qin Ge inherited their innate understanding of various elements of vitality. When he displays the Five Sacred Forms, he can activate the Shilong Xingyun Jue to generate the true energy of the corresponding element.
With hard practice, Qin Ge gradually integrated the Five Sacred Forms into the Shilong Xingyun Jue, and with the combination of swords and swords, he was able to defeat Xu Tu!
Xu Tuan looked at Qin Ge in shock and said: "My lord's strength is really improving by leaps and bounds! I didn't expect that he could reach such a level in just a few months!"
Qin Ge grabbed the tiger soul and pulled it up from the ground. The extreme pressure of the tiger soul on his shoulders made him instinctively mobilize the Shilong Xingyun Jue in his body to continue running, in order to continuously stimulate and temper his body.
Qin Ge finally understood why on the ancient murals of the Qin family, many previous kings were carrying tiger soul swords. He used to think that they were showing off, but it turned out that the tiger soul was actually a body-refining artifact that put himself under extreme pressure at all times. Keep tempering your body.
At this moment, Guan Zhong walked leisurely over and reported to Qin Ge the negotiation situation with Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu: "We have just reached an agreement with the Yuan brothers. Yuan Shao promised to provide 50,000 Jizhou heavy crossbows and 300,000 Jizhou heavy crossbows." Wolfsbane Arrows, and provided us with the production drawings of Jizhou Heavy Crossbow and Wolfsbane Arrows! And Yuan Shu promised to provide 100,000 sets of Yulin armor sets, including the light and heavy infantry armor equipped by the fifth battalion of the Northern Army, as well as the Army-breaking halberds and broken-armor halberds. Sabers and other equipment! At the same time, the two of them are willing to let the nobles of the two states each contribute one million dans of grain and grass!"
In order for Qin Ge to choose the governor of the state run by the other, the Yuan brothers had already used their public power. The Jizhou heavy crossbow was a weapon exclusively configured for the Jizhou heavy crossbow soldiers. The Jizhou family controlled its forging method and jointly cast it with the imperial court.
Only the state capital has the authority to forge these standard armors. Each set is worth a lot of money, and even if you buy it, it will be priceless.
The Jizhou heavy crossbow fires arrows quickly and with great power. During the defense battle of Snow Wolf Castle, it can be called a lawn mower. It is definitely a powerful weapon in position battles and city defense battles!
Wolfsbane arrows not only have terrifying armor-piercing capabilities, but the arrows are also coated with special wolfsbane, which can instantly render the enemy incompetent.
Qin Ge once used wolfsbane arrows to severely injure Goryeo's elite demon cavalry in a defensive battle. Knowing the power of wolfsbane arrows, it can be said to be an artifact specially designed to restrain elite troops.
As for the armor sets of the Forbidden Army, Yuzhou’s forging technology is second to none among all the states in the world. The Han Dynasty court with insufficient finances could only forge the armor sets of the Northern Army and Xiyuan Army in Yuzhou. This time, the Yuzhou Army led by Ji Ling was extremely brave. It has weapons and armor unmatched by other state troops.
The Yuzhou heavy infantry can even defeat the Goryeo heavy cavalry, precisely because they are armored with Forbidden Army armor sets, which can arm the troops to the teeth.
