At the same time, an extremely heated argument was taking place in Cangzhou City, Hebei Province.
The reason for the quarrel is quite complicated, but it has something to do with Lao Po Kong.
This matter started a few months ago.
Before, not long after Lao Pokong was placed under house arrest, Jiang Feng had already learned the news from a spy. But Jiang Feng didn't tell Po Kong because he was afraid that he would be too excited to find Xiao Yifeng.
Later, Xiao Yifeng acted in a high-profile manner and Lao Pokong never showed up again. In addition, the world's public opinion was discussing a coup in the Menis Empire. Xiao Yifeng and some military officers secretly plotted against Lao Pokong and directly controlled the imperial government.
Po Kong finally couldn't hold it any longer and went to Wangcheng, the capital, to ask Jiang Feng if he knew about Lao Po Kong.
Jiang Feng knew Po Kong's character, so he no longer concealed it.
After all, Po Kong and Lao Po Kong are the same person, so Po Kong cannot ignore Lao Po Kong. He hoped that Jiang Feng would ask Xiao Yifeng for an explanation and ask Xiao Yifeng to release Lao Pokong.
But Jiang Feng rejected Po Kong, because no matter what the reason, Xiao Yifeng would never release Lao Po Kong. Unless Jiang Feng goes to war against the Menis Empire and uses war as an excuse to force Xiao Yifeng. But it is impossible to start a war. With the current strength of Yan State, it is difficult to conduct a landing across the sea.
In layman's terms, Jiang Feng does not have the kind of marines that can fight both at sea and on land.
Jiang Feng has always focused on training the army. After all, the biggest problem in Yanhuang is the local area. As for the navy, it specializes in training naval warfare and is not good at land warfare, mountain warfare, terrain warfare, siege warfare, etc. It is not appropriate to put the army in warships. They are not good at water and will be difficult to play their role. I am afraid they will lose a lot before they even land on land.
All in all, no matter what the reason is, Jiang Feng will not mess with Xiao Yifeng for the time being. After all, even the Yanhuang problem has not been solved yet, so how can we have the thought and energy to deal with the American emperor across the sea.
Although Po Kong is an impulsive person, he is not the kind of unreasonable person. He also understood Jiang Feng's difficulties and knew that it was impossible for him to quarrel with Lao Pokong and the Menis Empire.
Pokong had no choice but to return to Northern Province in disgrace.
Ye Wuxue persuaded Po Kong not to care about Lao Po Kong's situation. After all, Lao Po Kong was Xiao Yifeng's master and taught him many space skills. No matter how villainous Xiao Yifeng is, he will not really kill Lao Pokong. Otherwise, everyone in the world would scold Xiao Yifeng for bullying his master and destroying his ancestors.
Even though he said this, Po Kong was still a little worried. After all, he was still another version of himself.
Originally, as time went by, Pokong gradually faded away from this worry.
But yesterday, Xiao Yifeng issued a notice and personally led 500,000 marines to carry out a military attack on the Ghost Clan.
In other words, the army at sea came to land. Xiao Yifeng, who was far away in the United States, came to Beiming in person.
How could such an opportunity be missed? Na Po Kong planned to go to Xiao Yifeng to talk about Lao Po Kong.
However, Po Kong also thought that if he went to talk alone, the other party might not look down on him. In order to keep up appearances, Po Kong planned to mobilize 100,000 or 200,000 troops to negotiate. Seeing such military strength, Xiao Yifeng will definitely pay attention to it. You know, although Xiao Yifeng's Marine Corps has also fought on land, there is still a certain gap compared with the Yanguo army, which specializes in land warfare.
Presumably, as long as Xiao Yifeng sees this kind of force, he will definitely be willing to put down his posture and have a good talk with Po Kong.
But it seems not easy to gather 200,000 troops.
In this Hebei Province, there are very few troops stationed in each city. Only the Northern Front Military City and the Great Wall Army have many troops.
As the largest military city on the northern front, Cangzhou City has about 100,000 troops, and the Great Wall Army responsible for protecting the construction of the Great Wall has more than 200,000 troops.
But in general, the 100,000 troops in Cangzhou City are relatively elite.
For this reason, Po Kong came to Cangzhou City last night and asked to mobilize 100,000 troops to talk to Xiao Yifeng.
At this time, the city lord of Cangzhou City is Jiang Wei, and Zhang Feng is the deputy city lord.
Jiang Wei's straightforward temperament directly refused Po Kong's request.
There were many officers present at the time, but Jiang Wei did not give Po Kong any good looks. At that moment, the scene was extremely embarrassing.
In fact, normally speaking, Po Kong, as the governor of Northern Province, has a higher official position than Jiang Wei.
Moreover, if Jiang Wei wants to become the lord of Cangzhou City, she needs a seal that breaks the sky. In other words, Po Kong has the power to appoint, remove and dismiss Jiang Wei.
Good guy, Jiang Wei directly contradicted Po Kong, and Po Kong was so angry that he wanted to remove Jiang Wei from his military post on the spot.
Then Jiang Wei simply revealed her identity.
"Pokong, I am the princess of the Yan Kingdom, and my father is the king of the Yan Kingdom. If you depose me today, my father can also depose you."
"I don't care whether your father will depose me, but I will definitely take off your hat today. You stinky girl, just because your father is the king, you don't take me seriously. If I, the governor, are just a If it’s for show, I’d rather not be the governor.”
"I don't care whether you do it or not. Anyway, you can't even think of ordering me."
"It's disgusting, it's extremely disgusting."
Good guy, that scene was so exciting. Po Kong's eyes were all red and bloodshot. He was so angry that he wished he could grab Jiang Wei and beat her up.
But Tianpeng was standing next to Jiang Wei. His combat power had increased to 400, which was the highest among everyone present. But everyone knows that Tianpeng's power is not the highlight at all. His strongest thing is his Cang Yan. In short, no matter what the considerations were, Po Kong could only scold Jiang Wei angrily, but he did not dare to approach Jiang Wei at all.
With Tianpeng here, who dares!
Deputy City Chief Feng kept trying to persuade the two to calm down, but to no avail.
In desperation, Zhang Feng had no choice but to give up persuasion, and instead left the scene first, ran to the city lord's office, and made a long-distance call.
An underground cable was successfully opened between Cangzhou and Wangcheng not long ago. This cable line passes through more than 20 large cities and more than a hundred small cities. A small number of troops are operating and maintaining along the line. So now it is possible to make long-distance calls between cities. However, the cable opening is now limited. After all, the environment in the wild is relatively harsh, and ferocious beasts often attack workers. Therefore, Jiang Feng can only give priority to connecting important large cities and their affiliated cities.
This Cangwang line alone took about half a year to be completely completed.
Jiang Feng, who was in Wangcheng, was in the office looking at Wangcheng's financial income for this month. Suddenly, the long distance phone rang.
Jiang Feng was suddenly shocked, because under normal circumstances, long-distance calls would not ring if it was not a particularly important matter. Moreover, only high-ranking officials at the level of city lord or deputy city lord are eligible to use long-distance calls.
Jiang Feng looked up and saw that it started with C and came from Cangzhou City.
"Hello." Jiang Feng immediately answered the phone.
"Prince Jiang, it's me, Zhang Feng."
"What happened?" Jiang Feng asked anxiously.
"Jiang Wei and Po Kong had a quarrel, it was so loud..."
Soon, Zhang Feng told Jiang Feng the general situation.
After hearing this, Jiang Feng sighed repeatedly: "Oh, it's just a moth. Let's do this. You tell them not to make noises and not to move the troops. Just tell them that I will come over overnight."
"Okay, got it."
After being helpless, Jiang Feng immediately took a plane and rushed to Cangzhou City overnight.
A few hours later, at around four o'clock in the morning, Jiang Feng arrived in Cangzhou.
After Na Po Kong saw Jiang Feng, he originally wanted to take off his hat, but threw it in front of Jiang Feng and shouted: "This official position is embarrassing, I don't deserve it anymore."
However, reason still defeated impulse. He knew that there were too many people at the scene, and he must not deliberately show off his temper.
As a provincial governor, he should have the demeanor of a provincial governor, so Po Kong immediately walked up to Jiang Feng and explained to him: "Prince Jiang, why are you here? You really don't need to come in person for such a small matter."
"Are you sure this is a trivial matter?"
"Hey, speaking of it, this is my fault. The princess is young and has a bad temper. As an elder, I really shouldn't quarrel with her. I lost my grace."
I have to say that Po Kong's words were really wonderful. Everyone was stunned and even Jiang Feng was shocked.
This Po Kong was originally the kind of impetuous person who used to be very open-minded, used foul language, and played with tempers first-rate. However, after becoming the provincial governor, he learned a lot of official accents.
Jiang Feng had no choice but to teach Jiang Wei a lesson: "Po Kong is your superior, don't you even know basic courtesy?"
"Po Kong wants to transfer my soldiers? How can I be polite?" Jiang Wei retorted.
"What is a provincial governor? He is the governor of a province. He has the right to remove you from office. Then Po Kong is still the chairman of the Central Military Commission of the province. He has the right to mobilize troops in the province."
"Pokong made a wrong decision to mobilize troops to find trouble with Xiao Yifeng. Now Xiao Yifeng has arrived at Langfang City and may launch an attack at any time. His conflict is with the ghosts and gods. If Pokong mobilizes troops to find him at this time It’s really unwise to bother you.”
"Jiang Wei, don't talk nonsense. I didn't say anything about going to trouble Xiao Yifeng. I just went to talk to him. I moved my troops just to save face and make him afraid, otherwise he wouldn't talk to me." Po Kong was excited. road.
"But when the two armies intersect, once a quarrel or quarrel occurs, it is easy for a firefight to occur, and then it will be out of control."
"Am I such a careless person? I moved the army over, but I wouldn't really get too close to them. I just let Xiao Yifeng's scouts know that I was leading the army over. When our army is far away from the opponent, When the time comes, I will personally use my powers to get over. I have teleportation, so I can get over alone. I won’t really let the two armies fight."
"You are an impulsive person, who will believe you." Jiang Wei's tone was still not good.
"Prince Jiang, look at it, she always has this tone and is arrogant, that's why I got into an argument with her." Po Kong said.
"Okay, let's stop arguing for now. Jiang Wei, your temper must change. You can't act like a princess every day."
"I don't……"
"Still talking back?" Jiang Feng raised his voice.
"I..." Jiang Wei saw that Jiang Feng's expression was a little serious, so she suppressed her unhappiness in her heart and stopped talking.
"Jiang Wei, as the city lord of Cangzhou City, if you have any objections to the orders of your superiors, you can calmly discuss it with your superiors. If the negotiation cannot be resolved, you can immediately make a long-distance call to me or Su Kouye. If it doesn't work, Cai Huadao can't Okay. As long as the official is bigger than Po Kong, you let them discuss with Po Kong, and they have the right to stop all Po Kong's actions. Originally, I planned to teach you a lesson directly on the phone, but in order to attract your attention, I I came here specially today.”
"..." Jiang Wei didn't speak any more, but her eyes were moist and she looked aggrieved. It seemed that she still couldn't stand her father's education.
"Do you know what to do next?"
"I know." Jiang Wei replied softly.
"louder please."
"Got it!" Jiang Wei shouted.
"Okay, then you go down first." Jiang Feng saw that Jiang Wei's tears were uncontrollable. In order to prevent her from losing her composure, Jiang Feng quickly let her go down first.
Jiang Wei left quickly and angrily, and Tianpeng immediately followed.
"Okay, let's get down to business, Po Kong. I'm here in person this time just to explain to you that you really can't lead troops to find Xiao Yifeng."
"Why? I won't really fight with Xiao Yifeng."
"This is not a matter of whether we can fight, but once we send troops north to find Xiao Yifeng, world public opinion will think that we are colluding with the ghost and god tribe, and Xiao Yifeng may also incite this public opinion, which will have a very bad impact on us. After all, The Ghost Clan is a race that everyone calls for fighting. This time Xiao Yifeng sent troops to the Ghost Clan, which not only won the support of civilians in the country, but also received verbal support from all over the world."
"Is world opinion so important?"
"Of course, now is no different than before. You can fight whoever you want. We, Yan Country, are a big country in Asia. We must have the stance and demeanor of a big country. Moreover, since Xiao Yifeng wants to fight with the ghosts and gods, what will happen to us? It’s a good thing, let’s just see the excitement.”
"But Xiao Yifeng is in Beiming now. I feel really uncomfortable if I don't ask for details."
"Well, actually, I'm also very curious about whether Xiao Yifeng will fight with the ghosts and gods, so I'll go there with you in person to see the excitement first. When the war is over, we will go and talk to Xiao Yifeng. If the king shows up in person, Xiao Yifeng will definitely give him face."
"Okay, thank you very much."
"It's okay, it wasn't a big deal originally."
Time returns to the present. It is around six o'clock in the morning. Jiang Feng and Po Kong are wearing telescopes and standing on the top of a high mountain, looking at Langfang City.
At this time, the sun has not yet risen, but the sky has begun to get brighter and visibility has improved.
"Woo~~~~~~"
As the trumpet sounded, countless siege troops rushed towards Langfang City carrying hundreds of siege rams.
At the same time, dozens of large catapults began to continuously throw special boulders, and the barrier continued to take shape. Many soldiers in Langfang City had never seen such a shocking siege scene, and they didn't know how to act for a while.
"Shelling."
At this time, the leaders of the guard regiment issued orders one after another, and all the forts at the East City Gate were activated, aiming not only at the boulders, but also at the battering ram troops.
"Good guys, we really started fighting." Jiang Feng smiled in surprise.
