"The dean seems to have many worries? Disciples may be able to share their worries!"

Ye Fan saw Cao Hao's expression and knew how upset he was. He picked up the wine cup, drank a small sip, and stopped savoring it. His alcohol capacity was limited and he was not as good as Cao Hao.

"It's not just an upset, it hasn't stopped over the years. On the way to Donglai City, you must have seen millions of soldiers everywhere outside Donglai City, transporting labor, and wounded soldiers everywhere in the city."

Cao Hao smiled bitterly.

Ye Fan was surprised, "When the attack on the Scare Sun Mountains, Canglan's country's national strength only dispatched 200,000 to 300,000 troops. Now Donglai County has gathered a million troops, and the labor force has been recruited is even millions. Why is this?"

Gu Xinyue listened quietly on the side and poured them wine.

"It's been a long story!"

Cao Hao recalled and said while drinking.

Canglan Kingdom has three major Wu Kings, namely Bian Herong is in charge of the royal city, Jin Xinwei is in charge of the Scarlet Sun Mountains, and Lu Dahang is in charge of the Donglai Binhai. After Ye Fan led his troops to eliminate the Green Wolf tribe in the Scarlet Sun Mountains, Canglan Kingdom's defensive pressure was greatly reduced by more than half, without internal and external troubles.

Regent Ling Jiaojiao held the power of the government. With the assistance of Prime Minister Liu Guoliang and other wise ministers, he was considered to be a pity for the people. He greatly reduced military service and reduced civilian labor. The tax burden of the people also greatly reduced, which made the Canglan Kingdom reach an unprecedented prosperity in just a few years, with abundant national treasury and full grain.

This grand occasion was so exciting and inspired by the court officials and the people of Canglan Country. This was the best time in Canglan Country in hundreds of years.

But five years ago, a coup in the court made the grand occasion of Canglan Country burn and fell to the bottom.

"A court coup? How is this possible!"

Ye Fan frowned, a little unbelievable, "Before I left, I handed over the hundreds of thousands of elite troops of Canglan Kingdom to Princess Ling Jiaojiao. Ling Jiaojiao held most of the real power of the Canglan Kingdom court, as well as the protection of the two Wu Kings, Bian Herong and Jin Xinwei, and the support of the ministers, who can launch a coup? The faction of the king Ling Feizhuo is weak and cannot touch her at all!"

"Yes, I never thought so back then, but it was indeed a coup in the court, and it was a coup that no one expected. Even the Martial Kings were powerless to stop it!"

Cao Hao sighed.

He quickly explained.

Five years ago.

The Zixuan Dynasty dispatched troops from 800 vassal states to support the Zhongzhou front line. The Zixuan Dynasty sent a special envoy of King Wu to Canglan Kingdom and asked Canglan Kingdom to dispatch troops.

This is not a rare thing at all.

Almost every year, the Zixuan Dynasty would send special envoys to ask each vassal state to dispatch troops, and each vassal state would do whatever it could. It is a convention that a strong country would produce more troops and a weak country would produce less troops.

But something that no one expected happened.

That day, in the court, the king Ling Feizhuo, without discussing with the Regent Ling Jiaojiao, agreed on the spot to dispatch "two kings, three hundred kings, and five thousand martial masters!", all of whom were the most elite soldiers and generals of Canglan Kingdom.

He also presented a thick list of troops to the special envoys of the Zixuan Dynasty.

This list is almost all members of the faction that support the Regent Ling Jiaojiao, even including Bian Herong and Jin Xinwei.

The entire Canglan Kingdom was in an uproar and unbelievable. Canglan Kingdom is not a powerful country, and it takes a lot of effort to cultivate a Wuhou. It is entirely up to luck to give birth to a Wu King.

In this breath, almost half of the top elite troops were removed from Canglan Kingdom.

However, a monarch is a symbol of the vassal states. If you promise a thousand gold, you must never regret what you say.

In particular, this was the promise made by Canglan King to the Special Envoy of King Wu of Zixuan Imperial City in the court, and it could not be withdrawn. Otherwise, it would be a serious crime to be despised by the Special Envoy of the Zixuan Dynasty and teased the great crime of the special envoy of the dynasty.

With the help of the dynasty's special envoy, the king Ling Feizhuo made an unstoppable coup, which happened in the court.

The powerful faction of the Regent Ling Jiaojiao inside and outside the court was almost uprooted and sent to the Zhongzhou battlefield, while the strength of the king Ling Feizhuo faction increased relatively greatly.

Ling Jiaojiao was almost stunned.

If she strongly opposes, deposing the monarch Ling Feizhuo may be able to save the situation, but this will definitely offend the special envoy of the Zixuan Dynasty and be punished by the Zixuan Dynasty.

A great turmoil in Canglan Country is still inevitable.

She was disheartened and stopped fighting, and gave up fighting for power with Ling Feizhuo. After that day, she never went to court to participate in any discussions.

In the next few years, everything in Canglan will naturally change completely.

Ling Feizhuo was very proud. After removing the faction of the Regent Ling Jiaojiao, no one in Canglan Kingdom could stop him from becoming a legitimate true monarch.

The Canglan court was completely controlled by the king Ling Feizhuo. Prime Minister Liu Guoliang was demoted and Yan Xiuzheng was promoted to the new prime minister. Almost all ministers were replaced by ministers who defected to them.

Ye Fan was a little unbelievable. In order to regain the royal power, Ling Feizhuo actually did such a thing that almost destroyed most of Canglan Kingdom.

His eyes became cold as snow, "So that's it. He is so good at using his power to fight with his power! Ling Feizhuo's mind cannot think of such a skill. Only Yan Xiuzheng, a genius in the palace examination, can use such a trick that makes his opponent unable to resist and defeat his opponent completely.

However, these are things that happened five years ago. What has happened recently? Mobilizing millions of troops from Canglan Kingdom to come to Donglai County?"

"Not bad! Since the court coup, things are far from over!"

Cao Hao nodded, his expression becoming more and more desolate.

The two Wu Kings, Bian Herong and Jin Xinwei, were recruited by the Zixuan Dynasty and went to the front line of Zhongzhou to participate in the war. The other Wuhou and Wu Zun were transferred by a large number and sent to the battlefield in Zhongzhou.

In Canglan, only King Wu of Lu Dahang is left in charge, and Lu Dahang is standing by the monarch.

In recent years, the sea disasters in Donglai County have become more and more serious, and sea beasts attack cities have increased year by year. Sea beasts have increased by almost two or three times more than ten years ago. The threat of sea beasts to Canglan Kingdom exceeds that of the Green Wolf Tribe in the Scarlet Sun Mountains.

The consequences of the king Ling Feizhuo's transfer of a large number of high-end troops to the Zhongzhou battlefield finally began to show.

A Martial King wanted to maintain the peace of the vast seas of Canglan Kingdom, which was obviously a bit difficult to support, and he spent most of his energy to deal with powerful sea beasts. There were not many powerful Martial Martial Masters who could fight sea beasts in Canglan.

Two years later, a big happy event finally happened in Canglan Country.

After practicing Gu Han Jian to the peak of Wuhou, he broke through the Martial King with his natural martial arts heart and became a rare Martial King of Heaven.

The king Ling Feizhuo also knew that he had made a big mistake before and hurriedly pleased the newly born King of Wu.

There was an extra King of Martial Arts, and I thought it would help Canglan Kingdom breathe a little.

But Wenxin Sect, one of the seven major sects of Shenwu, soon sent an envoy to come, hoping to take Gu Han Jian as a disciple of the sect.

Such opportunities are rare, so Gu Hanjian agreed. Moreover, he didn't want to help the king.

The envoy of Wenxin Sect brought Gu Han Jian to Wenxin Sect, which was also a bright future.

I am pitiful to Canglan Country, there is still a mess that cannot be cleaned up, and the sea disasters in Donglai County are becoming more and more serious and uncontrollable.

"Senior Brother Gu has indeed become a Martial King, and he is also a Martial King of Heaven. It's a joyful congratulation!"

Ye Fan was quite relieved when he heard this.

Gu Han Jian is a natural mind of martial arts. After practicing to the peak of Wuhou, he can automatically be promoted to the Martial King, which is difficult for ordinary people to reach. Moreover, this natural mind of martial arts has a very high understanding of the secrets of martial arts and is also one of the best among the Martial Kings.

After going to Wenxin Sect, the leader of the seven major sects of Shenwu, you will definitely be able to do something in the future.

"At that time, my elite soldiers and generals of Canglan Kingdom, the 200,000 to 300,000 troops were enough to suppress the Qinglang tribe, making it afraid to invade the boundaries of Canglan Kingdom. But now, two were missing from King Wu, and Wu Hou and Wu Zun were recruited in large numbers.

The high-end battle was insufficient, so the court could only recruit a large number of military service and labor service across the country, using a large number of military officials or even ordinary soldiers to make up the numbers, otherwise it would not be able to defend the long sea defense line. Therefore, there were millions of troops and millions of labor service outside the city of Donglai County!”

Cao Hao sighed.

Originally, ten Wuhous and one thousand Wu Zuns could have been able to defend a county and prefecture well, but more than 300 Wuhous were transferred away in one breath, which was a tremendous impact on the national strength of Canglan Kingdom. It is conceivable.

After listening to it, Ye Fan had already fully understood the current situation in Canglan Country.

He immediately said goodbye to Cao Hao and prepared to leave.

"Are you going to find the monarch?"

"Um!"

Ye Fan nodded.

"Don't be impulsive. King Wu Lu Dahang supports the camp of the king Ling Feizhuo. If you have a conflict with the king, you will definitely fight with Lu Dahang. No matter what the outcome is, the situation in Canglan Kingdom will probably be even worse! Now Canglan Kingdom has thousands of warehouses and holes, and it can no longer hurt the bones!"

Cao Hao hurriedly said.

Ye Fan couldn't help but remain silent, "Don't worry, Dean, I know the right way!"

Leaving Cao's Mansion, Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue were wearing straw hats and straw raincoats, walking quietly on the streets of Donglai City.

Although the streets of Donglaicheng are crowded, there is no longer the prosperous scene ten years ago.

Groups of soldiers hurried past, their leather weapons looked worn out. The ragged laborers were carrying loads of transporting supplies and strengthening the city.

Low grass huts can be seen everywhere, with wounded people placed. Most of the citizens in the city also seem poor and busy with numb expressions.

There were no beggars or wandering people on the streets, and they were all charged with labor and work.

Only the wealthy families in Donglai County have bright clothes and armor, barely maintaining a glorious face, but their foundation has long been weak, and even the janitors have almost been replaced by late-stage martial artists, not martial masters.

The war of sea beast attacks on the city that broke out in Donglai County over the years also caused great losses to the powerful clans, and the personnel losses could not be supplemented.

Ye Fan walked around the city and looked around, his heart getting heavier and more disappointed.

Before leaving Canglan, he once warned the kings Ling Feizhuo and Yan Xiuzheng that his departure did not mean that he would not come back. It seems that they did not listen and did not hesitate to take the entire Canglan Kingdom as a bet in order to compete for the royal power.

Now, a big mistake has been made and a mess.

How should he save this situation of collapse?

Another problem is that he cannot stay in Canglan Kingdom for too long. Otherwise, once the people from Zihuang Sect chase after him, it will be a bigger problem.
