Youzhou.
Since ancient times, it seems that they have been excluded from the political center of Long Yan.
Because it's too far.
However, in the history of Longyan, Youzhou is not an unknown place, and it can even be regarded as an important military town in Longyan. During the Han Dynasty, Youzhou was the place where the Huns often fought. After all, Youzhou was the border area of Chinese civilization. It was also the long-term battle between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu that forged a world-famous army, the Youzhou Cavalry!
Whether fighting the Huns or Goguryeo, Youzhou is an indispensable military town.
In Liu Zheng's world, every time Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty went to Korea, he would gather troops and horses in Youzhou, allocate grain, weapons and equipment.
If you say this, it is not straightforward enough.
Then, at the end of the Tang Dynasty, Anlu Mountain raised troops here, so we can know what kind of place Youzhou is.
The folk customs here are fierce, and the people of Youzhou have admired the beauty of books and swords since ancient times. There are many heroes in Youyan, so you know how many capable people there are in Youzhou.
only.
Under the rule of King Zhao Xie Sheng, Youzhou was very low-key, extremely low-key.
It's almost outrageously low-key.
Let's put it this way, since Xie Sheng inherited the title of King Zhao from his father, he has never been to Beijing.
Not once.
No matter what happens to your emperor or the royal family, Xie Sheng can just say, I am not in good health.
then.
In this era when communications were not developed enough and information was not enough, everyone thought that King Zhao Xie Sheng was just a tuberculosis ghost, and no one took him seriously.
And this time.
The prince's state funeral was held, and Xie Sheng said that there was no way he could shirk it.
and……
In fact, he didn't want to shirk it in his heart.
"Thirty years..."
In the simple carriage, Xie Sheng laughed: "It's been thirty years, and it's really time to visit Beijing. Do you think our Holy Lord can still recognize me?"
People on the left and right laughed.
Xie Sheng is in his forties, neither fat nor thin. It can be seen that he has always paid attention to his physical exercise and has a strong general's temperament. Having said this, he smiled coldly: "The world says that Xie Tianyao can endure this contraction in the womb for more than thirty years. I think he is not bad at all!"
Others immediately flattered him and said, "What King Zhao said is wrong. Our land in Youzhou is much larger than that of the imperial palace, and King Zhao lives a more comfortable life than that of the Holy One!"
Everyone laughed again.
"Xie Tianyao, Xie Tianyao..."
Xie Sheng's eyes flashed with strong fighting spirit.
This time.
Long Yan is about to be in chaos, Xie Sheng thinks that his chance has come!
Yes.
coming.
As the King of Zhao, he was a die-hard member of the old aristocracy. In the north, he was on the same front as King Han of Jizhou, King Zheng of Xuzhou, and King Feng of Yanzhou. In terms of political stance, there is no doubt that the old nobles have always supported Prince Xie Fang. But, this time... Xie Fang is dead!
The prince is dead!
The other members of the old aristocracy were all panic-stricken, but Xie Sheng became excited.
Why?
Because he felt that their family’s opportunity had come!
Since the old nobles can no longer find a spokesperson...then Youzhou will naturally take the responsibility!
Look at the vassal kings of Longyan at this time, which one is stronger than them in Youzhou?
His 300,000 Youzhou cavalry are waiting for battle!
He has three sons, all of them are dragons and phoenixes!
now that……
Xie Tianyao's branch of the Xie family was able to defeat the Tang king hundreds of years ago and successfully ascend to power. Then... why couldn't he?
As soon as this idea came up, it was in his heart and he couldn't contain it anymore.
Although he has never been to Jinghua these years, he has never stopped running Jinghua.
Even one of his sons, his favorite eldest son, Xie Chen, was working as a eunuch in the palace...
Be a eunuch.
Thinking of this, Xie Sheng's eyes flashed with sadness. How could his son be a heavenly eunuch! However, this is no longer important. He has decided that if he can seize the throne, he must first let his eldest son have a good time! Yes, he must pass the throne to his eldest son first!
"How did those old guys reply?"
Xie Sheng thought for a moment and then asked calmly.
The group of counselors and generals around him looked at each other.
"Your Majesty..."
"them……"
When Xie Sheng saw these people hesitating, he immediately sneered: "You must think Gu is crazy, right?"
A group of people stopped talking.
Xie Sheng laughed loudly: "Do you also think Gu is crazy?"
"Um?"
He suddenly shouted: "A bunch of losers! The 300,000 Youzhou sudden cavalry alone are invincible in the world. Coupled with the equipment from Liangzhou, even if the Liangzhou army comes, I will not be afraid! A group of guys with no structure! If they If you are willing to send troops to Gu, a million-strong army, why worry about not being able to level the Long Yan River and the mountains? Why worry!"
He spoke domineeringly.
All because he has kept a low profile for so many years and hidden it too deeply! He was so low-key that he was frustrated!
Looking at the Qingzhou soldiers, looking at the Liangzhou cavalry, looking at these and those, Liu Shilang, the imperial examination, looking at the ever-changing Long Yan, he couldn't help it anymore, and finally couldn't help it anymore!
He wants to prove to the world that he exists!
His existence in Youzhou!
"Your Majesty, although these idiots are as timid as mice, in fact, they are all just outsiders."
Next to Xie Sheng, a counselor with small eyes chuckled.
Xie Sheng shook his head: "But their soldiers are useless."
The counselor continued to smile and said: "Your Majesty, looking at the current situation in the world, the Liangzhou Army is the strongest, followed by the Qingzhou Army... Your Majesty, please calm down for the time being, and let us Youzhou Cavalry ignore it for the time being. Therefore, these vassal kings are actually the most afraid in their hearts. Yes, it’s still the Liangzhou Army.”
Everyone nodded.
The Liangzhou Army in recent years has become too powerful.
Xie Sheng looked at the counselor.
The counselor continued: "However, although the Liangzhou army is powerful, it is too scattered and extremely difficult to dispatch. And it relies too much on the reputation of Liu Shilang..."
A flash of light flashed in his eyes: "Your Highness, if your Highness's plan is successful this time, you can successfully assassinate Liu Shilang at the funeral! These old immortals will definitely look up to you one by one! When Your Highness thinks about it, if Liu Shilang dies, The Liangzhou army will definitely be leaderless, and the entire Liangzhou will collapse! Even if it is as beautiful as the forest wind, it will be destroyed. When the time comes, the collapsed Liangzhou will be like a piece of fat meat waiting to be slaughtered. Who doesn’t want to take a bite! Your Majesty, this is a big deal. Why!”
When everyone heard this, they became excited.
"My lord, great things can be done!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
"good!"
King Zhao Xie Sheng also happily slapped his thigh hard.
Great things can be done!
He believes that the time has come to prove that he is the right one!
kill!
