Therefore, another purpose for the young lady Lu Qinglian to be summoned here is to assist in identifying the identity and count the specific loot, and then be responsible for taking over part of it through the channels of Himizawa Domain. For example, those ozeki ships and return ships that were captured intact by the Kaidong Army.
As one of the post-event rewards of secret transactions and agreements, she can let people take away part of it, and then use it as a secret transportation force between Fuso mainland and Haidong. In this way, after the naval forces in Qinghai Town were destroyed, Himezawa Domain regained the ability to conduct maritime trade.
In addition, she can also select some prisoners as the results of negotiations with the Himezawa clan on the surface. Then, secretly contact them at the Fuso family to redeem them for a large amount of money; or exchange them for the key members of their respective feudal families at other prices.
In this way, she is responsible for the specific negotiations. Not only can she obtain sufficient benefits for her family in the middle, but she can also privately obtain the gratitude and kindness of these local feudal clans, and even turn them into various political resources and influence that are beneficial to the Himezawa clan, and even more Further strengthen the domain.
Even further, she could directly redeem some of the vassal soldiers who had lost their master's family from the Kaitong Army and could only become ronin and wanderers; and then use the background and personal name of Himizawa Domain to win over and offer favors. In a short period of time, a personal armed force can be organized...
However, behind all these seemingly generous conditions and rewards, the more the young lady Lu Qinglian learns about the current situation, the more she feels panic, dilemma, and worry about gains and losses. This state of mind lasted until she completed her initial mission and returned to life.
That night, the true ancestor who never showed up, although he did not take away the precious thing she was waiting for, but in front of the young official, on the grounds of verifying his heart and sincerity, he Every part of her body from head to toe was tortured with shameful means.
As a result, she had difficulty moving after the incident, and her back ached for several days before she recovered. But she still could not imagine that, relying solely on some outdated information provided by Jizawa Domain, this Haidong Army could actually sweep across Wuzhou and destroy Fuso Domain's strongest navy.
Together with a batch of reinforcements and supplies that had just arrived from Fuso, they were also finished. This was far beyond the upper limit of what she had guaranteed to her mother. The Himezawa clan needs a proper balance and confrontation between the two camps, rather than a one-sided overwhelming force!
Once the news of her role leaks out, the young lady Lu, whose residence is still in Fusang, may become a lost cause. It can be said that man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation. The true ancestor's magical power is so vast that it can make all plots and calculations become a joke.
Therefore, it seems that she has only one choice left to continue on. It is to win the trust of the revitalized Haidong Palace as much as possible, and then use this to strive for more benefits and ways out for Ji Zefan and his sister Lu family, as well as himself and his mother behind him.
You know, she had some thoughts that could be called disrespectful. If King Demei's Eastern Expedition was defeated, the internal disputes and conflicts would break out, and the Himezawa clan would not be able to take into account the interests and gains of the clan. On the contrary, I can find a middle ground and make everything possible.
After all, there are more than a hundred large and small vassal families in the land of Fuso's five regions, seven roads and sixty-six states, and not all of them are willing to participate in this sea-crossing expedition; but most of them are either due to royal authority or restricted by Due to the situation, or being lured to his advantage, he had no choice but to send troops to comply.
Otherwise, facing the support of more than half of the vassals in the country, especially outside the royal family, and the participation and endorsement of the most powerful vassal lords, any vassal who dares to resist or reject it on the basis of excuses , they will be hit by public disapproval, and even be expelled from the vassal.
Therefore, even the Himezawa clan, which had already made a lot of efforts in advance, recruited 1,500 loyal followers for this purpose; led by an elder of the main war faction, they embarked on a cross-sea expedition. Now, all he can do is stay on Tamna Island, herding cattle and guarding the horse farm for the General's Mansion.
The next moment, the young lady Lu Qinglian, who was holding a freshly baked directory with the ink still wet on it, filled with the family backgrounds and treatment suggestions of hundreds of people, heard screams and whines from a distance. However, her thoughts suddenly calmed down and she showed a reserved smile.
Because she had heard earlier that among the Haidong Army under the leadership of this young prince, there was actually a tradition of taking captured enemy prisoners after the war and then selecting some of them to perform blood sacrifices (killings); especially Those who have a certain status are the targets of priority execution.
However, after passing through several closely guarded sentries and gates, what Miss Lu Qinglian saw was not the awe-inspiring scene of massacre that she expected; instead, there were many seriously injured people on the ground soaked in blood. There were both soldiers of the Haidong Army and ordinary young men.
However, they seemed to have broken limbs and were dying, but their expressions were quite calm and serene, and they even had a little bit of expectation; they tried hard to endure the pain and not let themselves cry out loudly until someone took them. The stretcher was carried into a courtyard, and then he completely lost his voice.
Then the next moment, fierce screams and cries, like howls of ghosts and wolves, suddenly sounded in that courtyard; it was like they had suffered some extremely brutal torture. However, this sound disappeared just as quickly as it came; a moment later, several staggering figures were helped out from the side door.
Seeing these figures who were walking reluctantly, other people waiting there showed expressions of envy, encouragement, relief, and even joy. At the same time, the young lady Lu Qinglian who was waiting nearby could not help but widen her eyes with a bewildered expression.
Because she suddenly recognized the people who were helped out. The seriously injured people who previously had either their hands and feet broken, their stomachs cracked, or their necks cut in half could only lie on the frame, dying. There are even beings whose heads have been deflated and only one breath left.
But after entering this courtyard, they all came out alive with their limbs intact. Although his face looked miserable and gray, he looked like a corpse that had just been dug out of the ground. But his limbs are intact, his body is intact, he is breathing heavily and talking normally, and he is truly alive.
I saw these people who had come back to life, but they knelt down on the ground without hesitation, and shouted in front of a loud and uneven voice in a certain direction: "Thank you God Ancestor and True Immortal for giving me the opportunity. I can only work hard and work hard." In return..."
In an instant, her whole body trembled; she suddenly understood why these Haidong troops had such high morale and the fighting spirit to risk their lives. This is probably the method of the True Ancestor and Immortal; it can not only make the dead transcend the afterlife, but also restore the dying people to their original state.
Since there is such a mysterious and extraordinary method to inspire, the Haidong Army is united and everyone is striving to be the first. In contrast, the Fuso Allied Forces each have their own agendas, and even King Deming may not be able to restrain them all. How can there be any reason to be invincible under the circumstances of one and the other?
She also suddenly understood; why it was said that the young official had been assassinated by assassins from various Fuso vassals, dead soldiers who rebelled against the northern princes, fanatics of the Maitreya Sect, spies of the Baekje Army, and even close followers; But he is still safe and sound.
Because as long as this true ancestor is here, not to mention turning disaster into good fortune every time, it will be difficult to die as long as you have a breath. She even felt a little envious, jealous, and resentful of this young official who was particularly favored by God. I don’t know what price she paid to have such an opportunity.
Immediately after being summoned, the young lady Lu Qinglian came back to her senses. Since the other party dares to show all this to her, what does that mean? Is it further trust, or some kind of unspoken threat; or is it the last scene she can see before her death.
You know, what does this method that can almost bring people back to life mean to those powerful people who have been sick and dying all year round? At least, it's enough to make many people in this world chase and worship him crazily.
So after a while, the young lady Lu Qinglian knelt down on the ground and climbed up to Jiang Tian on her hands and feet. She loosened her robe in a smooth motion, revealing her exquisite body-hugging curves; with a charming and demanding smile, she said, "I would like to ask the True Ancestor to test my sincerity."
Because she had already figured it out in this moment. Since the Fuso Army that came across the sea was doomed to fail in the face of this powerful man. Then why does she continue to insist on the mission assigned by her mother, and let Himezawa clan be tied deeper to the loser and pay more price?
Or to put it further, if the Zhenghai General's Mansion headed by King Deming was destroyed in the land of Haidong, the underage prince who stayed in the Pingcheng Jingchao Hall could still suppress the people who were forced to follow him. Will the royal family and the feudal clan, which suffered heavy losses, launch a collective attack and counterattack? .
At that time, the Himezawa clan, whose relative strength was relatively intact, had the potential backing of the Kaitō office, and it also controlled sea routes. Don't say that he is proud to have both left and right, coming from all sides, even if he takes advantage of the trend and dominates one of the Five Kingdoms and Seven Paths, he has the hereditary position of exploring issues and leading. It's not unimaginable.
Therefore, while devoting herself, at this moment, her heart even felt tragic and decisive like self-martyrdom. Because, all these sacrifices are for Ji Zefan, for the young lady Lu family led by her mother; and also for the vigorous ambition that she has always hidden in her heart.
And at the moment when her emotion reached its peak. Jiang Tian, who was watching the lively and lively performance silently but with interest, suddenly let out a sigh. Because in the void above Miss Lu Qinglian's head, the position of the note entry for Mohu finally took shape: "Mingqi Hunduo".
And in Lingao County, Liangzhou, hundreds of miles away, in Niyu Town at the foot of Bagong Mountain. Hong Dashou, whose body was covered with scars and his armor was stained with blood, stared at the Fuso Army with bloodshot eyes, nervously watching the critical moment of the siege, when he suddenly stopped and retreated desperately.
The next moment, he couldn't help but let out a hoarse cheer to his subordinates with withered faces and disheveled beards and hair: "Your Highness... Your Highness, we have succeeded. The Fuso Army has been defeated..." Immediately, cheers came one after another. Diffused in this newly recovered city.
Because these Fuso troops retreated so hastily that they had no time to clean up or burn down the wounded who were still alive before the battle, as well as the equipment and forts they had built; they just withdrew in such a hurry. Obviously something very serious went wrong somewhere else.
Then, as if to confirm Hong Dashou's idea, a group of people also came to the abandoned camp. But it was He Taiping who led thousands of newly formed volunteers from Shahuo Town to come to support and respond. At the same time, he also brought the latest instructions from the platform and forwarded them here.
