"Dad, if the real-life golden elixir hidden by the Zhang family is really that powerful, do you think it is necessary for them to marry us? Wouldn't it be bad to annex us?"
Feng Tiansheng sighed. This father was considered a smart man, but he couldn't understand things regarding his cultivation, which actually made him a little confused.
He, who had read two more books in his previous life, could imagine such a simple thing. Why, as the prince of the Shanhe Palace, could he not understand why?
"Is it... to test yourself?"
Feng Tiansheng suddenly felt something in his heart. After all, his father planned to go to war with the imperial court. Maybe there would be other arrangements later. Is this going to depend on his ability to handle time?
When you think of this, you should do well and correct your attitude immediately. Since you are going to assess yourself, you must at least accept the assessment respectfully and not be too lazy.
"Annexation? Son, have you ever thought that even if a real-life Jindan faces the heavy cavalry and Shanhe Army of our Shanhe Palace, he might die?"
Feng Jiuyang saw that his son had a correct attitude and a smile on his face. It seemed that he knew his plan, so there was no need to go round his questions.
"But whether we are heavy cavalry or mountain and river troops, facing practitioners with real-life golden elixir cultivation, we can only defend the opponent. It is impossible to catch the opponent by taking the initiative. Once this person gives up the Zhang family, then it will be us The Feng family must always be careful about being attacked by surprise. We have to face not only a real-life Jindan monk, but also the attack of hundreds of thousands of imperial troops. Now that the other party is cutting off our intelligence, if the Zhang family monks are really powerful, They just need to wait until the imperial army comes."
Feng Tiansheng sighed as he spoke. He still didn't know what kind of strength the real-person Jindan monk was and what spells he knew. He couldn't even fight against him.
"Facing the siege of the temple and the rivers and lakes, what are your plans?"
Feng Jiuyang looked at his son. From now on, he would naturally be the head of the Shanhe Palace, so now let him consider all possible problems.
He handles matters on both sides by just letting nature take its course. Whether it is the temple or the world, he has been suffering losses in both aspects, but the forces on both sides do not dare to be too blatant.
For example, in the ambush of the two families in the past few years, even if the Shanhe Palace did not express any position, their expansion in Hanyang City was still very small, so small that it could be ignored.
The imperial court took back the military power of the Shanhe Palace in the imperial court, so that the Feng family's military power could only be maintained within a thousand miles around Hanyang City. He also had no objection.
This is because the Shanhe Palace has never had that many soldiers and horses. Even at its peak, the heavy cavalry was no more than 100,000. They were used to resist the invasion of Great Qin.
After defeating the Qin Dynasty, the heavy cavalry was handed over directly to the court. Only 30,000 heavy cavalry were left in the Shanhe Palace. Those 30,000 heavy cavalry have been retained until now, and no one has ever been added.
The Shanhe Army was secretly formed to fight against Jianghu. After the next successor becomes the prince, he will meet all the Shanhe Army, four teams and twenty-eight people.
This was not created by Feng Jiuyang now, but by someone more than three hundred years ago, because at that time he felt that the imperial court might take action against the Shanhe Palace.
Naturally, the imperial court was open about it, and it could still resist. They were worried about letting the Jianghu take action. This was what they were worried about, so they secretly established the Shanhe Army.
"There is no plan. After all, we still don't know who the general of the imperial army is. No matter what we do now, it may cause panic in the imperial court. It is better to let the imperial court believe in our loyalty to the Feng family and that they control our intelligence. System. After all, if you get within a thousand miles, you will find that this distance is enough for us to adjust our army."
Although Feng Tiansheng looked serious, there was still a trace of disdain on his face. Hundreds of thousands of imperial troops were coming. How could he hide it from the Shanhe Palace with this momentum?
"No...if an army of 500,000 people really comes, they can't move so slowly. Even if they want to see the attitudes of both sides of us, they can't be silent. If it looks like this, I'm afraid our current Hanyang Inside the city..."
Feng Tiansheng's expression suddenly changed. I am afraid that the imperial court controls not only the external intelligence system, but now even the intelligence system inside Hanyang City has been penetrated.
"Haha, it seems that you have thought of this. This is the information obtained by the Shanhe Army's investigation. You see how to deal with it."
Feng Jiuyang laughed when he heard his son's analysis. He reached out and took out a piece of information from his arms and handed it to him. This was information that had been investigated a few days ago.
This is also the reason why he suddenly became angry and frightened. Hanyang City was infiltrated by the opponent, and the Shanhe Palace was really at a critical moment of life and death.
After his son was deposed by Zhen Qiang, he planned to break up with the imperial court. When the imperial army came over, the three major families would be completely destroyed.
Feng Tiansheng looked shocked. He didn't expect that his father had already noticed it and asked someone to investigate clearly. He was indeed the prince of Shanhe Palace.
"so many people……"
Feng Tiansheng took it and saw the densely packed names on it. There were more than twenty people. These people were now mixed in every inconspicuous corner of Hanyang City.
"Well, they sneaked in within a month. Now it seems that the correspondence between the three major families and the court should not exceed half a year."
Feng Jiuyang nodded when he heard his son's words. There were indeed a lot of people, but they came too fast. More than twenty people came in one month.
Although the intelligence system outside Hanyang City has been cut off, Hanyang City is its own courtyard to the Shanhe Palace. How many people can you come to block the master's eyes?
"It takes half a year to gather an army of 500,000 people. I'm afraid they will transfer the army directly from other places. Father, do you know any general who can command an army of 500,000 people?"
Feng Tiansheng looked at his father. The 500,000-strong army could not be led by a certain general. Otherwise, the court would be afraid of it and would have to mobilize it from other places.
"There is only one general who can command an army of half a million people... I'm afraid there is only one person, but it is only the person I know."
Feng Jiuyang sighed as he spoke, took a sip of the cold tea and let himself calm down for a while. This man really didn't want to bring it up.
"Looking at father's attitude, this person is not an old friend of father. I'm afraid he is someone from our Feng family branch, right?"
Feng Tiansheng looked helpless as he looked at his father. The only people who could make him worry like this were these two possibilities. After all, he was not afraid even of rebellion.
"You are right, it is our branch of the Feng family. Although our eldest son's lineage is a pure one from your grandfather's generation, the other branches have many descendants."
Feng Tiansheng became even more gloomy as he spoke. Previous generations had their own sons even if they were from a single lineage, but he was completely cut off from the lineage.
If he had a son, he would not be able to pick up Feng Tiansheng. Zhang Qi from the Zhang family was with Feng Tiansheng at the time, and both families chose the child they wanted.
"Ignoring the matter of the heirs, since the other party is from the Feng family, he is probably very concerned about destroying us. Maybe the emperor will also propose that as long as the other party can destroy us, he can inherit the Shanhe Palace. In this way It may be impossible for other generals, but it is not impossible for branches of the same clan."
Feng Tiansheng's expression became even more ugly when he heard his father's words. If it was someone from the Feng family branch, then he would be the biggest threat to them now.
This is because his family will be merciless when dealing with his own family. After all, the Shanhe Palace is extremely attractive to anyone, but it has always been occupied by the eldest son's lineage.
"Yes, so I originally planned to strike preemptively. Once a war breaks out, there will be no blood relations on the battlefield, and it will be okay to kill the opponent."
Feng Jiuyang sighed, if his son had not shown his strength, then the heavy cavalry of Shanhe Palace would have already attacked, and the army of 500,000 would not be worth mentioning.
"That's it. Then leave this battle to me. But I need my father to have a good talk with their generals and stay in the palace for a while. I'll handle it outside."
Since Feng Tiansheng understood that his father had no intention of taking into account any blood relationship, there was no need for him to be merciful and just take action.
The army of half a million people cannot be eliminated, but it is not that difficult for him to defeat hundreds of generals, not to mention the help of heavy cavalry and mountain and river troops.
"Okay, but what are you going to do? The Zhang family must be connected with the imperial army now, and it's not easy for us to cut them off. And the Zhen family and the Zhao family are probably also thinking of a way at this time, after all, they want to be here To survive a war, you must know in advance which side will win."
Feng Jiuyang looked at his son. Although the son in front of him was indeed very smart, the court's army of 500,000 people and the connections in the Jianghu were not something that could be dealt with by being smart.
"Now I need to mobilize the heavy cavalry and the mountain and river army. I hope my father can get a confidant to help me. Otherwise, I can't go to my father for any orders, right? It's fine during the day, but it's not good if I disturb you and mother's sleep at night. .Ha ha ha ha……"
Feng Tiansheng laughed as he spoke. Since he was not their biological son, they had to give birth to their own son, so he didn't bother them late at night.
"Haha, what are you talking about? Let's do this, I'll hand them all over to you. Anyway, you will be the successor in the future, and it will be a matter of time before they are handed over to you."
Feng Jiuyang looked at his son and smiled. These people would all belong to him sooner or later, so there was no need to mobilize them again.
It turned out that the reason why I didn't let him know was just to let him practice with peace of mind, but now it seems that he doesn't need to practice anymore, so there is no problem in leaving it to him.
"Leave it to me..."
Feng Tiansheng began to think deeply after hearing his father's words, and nodded after a moment, which made his subsequent command more smooth.
