The emperor went to see him off in person. It is said that before leaving, Huang Chunhui asked the emperor: Where will the Tang Dynasty go? The emperor said: It is a distant place that no one has ever thought of.
Huang Chunhui closed his eyes with satisfaction.
On the second day after Huang Chunhui was buried, a messenger smelling of sea came to Chang'an and brought a letter from King Wei asking for help.
"Ask for help?"
The emperor was stunned. In his impression, King Wei was a tough guy who could break bones and refused to bow his head. What kind of opponent did he encounter?
He read the letter carefully.
This is the second time King Wei has written to him. The first time was when he had just found a place to stay overseas.
But this time, they found a new base, a large... King Wei said that as for the land that has not yet been explored to the end, there are deserts, endless grasslands, and endless forests, and the huge trees are jaw-dropping.
They just searched and found several large mines, including iron ore, gold and silver mines...
The land is so fertile that if you drop any seeds, they will grow wildly.
"Have you found a treasure?" the emperor smiled.
King Wei said that this was a treasured land that must not be occupied by others. He named the place Zhongzhou and erected a stone tablet to indicate that it was a new territory discovered by the Tang Dynasty. Exploration and development followed.
But the good times didn't last long. Just when they had just harvested food and the bison herd was about to give birth to a wave of calves, several ships came. A group of aliens who looked like ghosts got off the ships. They were holding knives and axes, and they were menacing.
He asked King Wei and others to get out, otherwise, they would become the first batch of human skeletons on this land.
King Wei responded with a horizontal sword, slashing and killing most of them, and captured a group of them, but they escaped on a ship.
Soon, a merchant ship with sharp ends arrived, and the ship owner cunningly hoped to exchange a piece of news about Zhongzhou's life and death for gold sand... at least fifty kilograms.
King Wei agreed without hesitation... He values more these guys who understand Tang dialect and those foreign languages.
——There is a piece of land just north of Zhongzhou, with more than a dozen countries on it. The largest country is called Luoluo. These countries are very poor, so they sent out fleets to find the new world. The aliens who luckily escaped last time brought back
The news of the discovery of a cornucopia-like continent attracted the covetousness of those countries.
Then, the first battle began. Five thousand people came over there, and they were killed by the three thousand warriors led by King Wei.
But unfortunately, the prisoners told King Wei that the dozen or so countries were negotiating. Although the process was very troublesome, once successful, they would form a coalition to capture Zhongzhou.
The next time they come will not be 5,000 people, but at least 50,000 or more. If Luo Luo is interested in this place, then King Wei's best choice is to run, the farther away the better.
That would not be an army of 50,000, but... more than 100,000.
--Help!
This was the first time King Wei asked for help.
——This is a treasure land that cannot fall into the hands of foreigners!
——Even if this king dies, he will not withdraw from Zhongzhou!
The emperor raised his head and asked: "Is that place suitable for people from the Tang Dynasty to settle down?"
The envoy said: "Zhongzhou is simply a place tailor-made for the people of the Tang Dynasty. It has forests, rivers, fertile land, and a crazy amount of various minerals... The king said that he is waiting for His Majesty in Zhongzhou. He wants to join forces with Your Majesty in
Overseas, build a new Datang!"
The emperor swore that he was moved by this vision.
Deeply moved.
"Someone is coming!"
"His Majesty."
"Call the civil and military officials to discuss matters!"
During the discussion, the emperor waved a letter from King Wei and expressed his filial piety: "I will not sit back and watch King Wei be besieged. Even if he goes there alone, I will not sit back and watch him fight alone."
Liu Qing lowered his head, knowing that the emperor was moved.
"Hurry up and prepare. I will march westward at the beginning of spring and destroy Luoluo. Let those so-called 100,000 troops come to nothing."
Then, he will go to sea!
The emperor became excited for the first time in a long time.
"Only the flames of war can excite Your Majesty." Liu Qing sighed.
In his opinion, the emperor had been suppressing his own nature in recent years and imprisoned himself in Chang'an City.
Now, he finally found a new toy.
…
The waves crashed on the rocks on the shore, and the waves splashed.
King Wei, who was quite dark, stood on a rock and watched the fishing boats operating in the distance.
Farther away, the navy was practicing.
The two fleets were constantly changing their formations, and after getting close, they simulated attacks in various ways.
The people on the fishing boat were cheering loudly for them, but no one could hide their worry.
There are more than ten countries, even if they are small countries, it is not something Zhongzhou can resist if they join forces.
"We are short of people."
Sun Jia, the governor of Zhongzhou appointed by King Wei, stood under the rocks and said helplessly: "This place is too far away from the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, people from the Tang Dynasty will come in a steady stream. In just one year, we can take the initiative to launch an attack."
King Wei said solemnly: "Luo Luo is not weak. Zhao Song is no match in Western Xinjiang. If they were not afraid of the huge strength of the Tang Dynasty, they would have swarmed into Western Xinjiang like locusts."
"According to the date, the messenger should have arrived in the Tang Dynasty. I don't know what decision he will make."
"If he goes to sea, my bones will be cold by the time he waits. His only way is to attack Luoluo..."
In another world, this move is called surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao.
"Once Luoluo is attacked, those small countries will also be shocked and turn their attention to the east. In this way, we will win a breathing space."
"Tell them that our first priority right now is to have children!"
…
King Wei returned to his temporary residence.
In the wooden house, Concubine Shu was weaving. She looked much more rosy and comfortable than when she was in Chang'an.
A girl, the daughter of King Wei, was accompanying her beside her, raising her head from time to time to ask questions. When she saw Queen Wei, the girl ran over cheering, "Aye!"
"Madam!" King Wei picked up the girl and said to Concubine Shu: "Madam, don't be too busy, your eyes are important."
"You have already told the outside world that if you don't work, you won't be able to eat. I'll set an example for them anyway." Concubine Shu raised her head and said with a smile, "By the way, my eldest sister took people to pick the fruits, and she said she would make wine for you."
"Aye." The girl hugged King Wei's neck and shook her, "My mother-in-law said that she will open a blacksmith shop later."
"Then let's go!" King Wei smiled.
"Your Majesty." A follower came in, "That businessman is here again."
"I'm going to meet him." King Wei carried his daughter out and soon saw the cunning businessman.
Fifty pounds of gold sand was exchanged for that news, and King Wei felt that he had made a lot of money.
Subsequent merchants would bring some news from time to time, and King Wei generously rewarded him with gold and silver.
To King Wei, the gold and silver at this moment were nothing more than rubbish, not worth as much as a group of warriors.
"Dear King, your faithful servant has brought you bad news."
"Oh! Tell me, I will trade with you based on the importance of this news."
"Not long ago, Luoluo began to expand its army. It is said that they will form an army of 200,000 this time. 200,000! My king, this will be an existence that can crush the world."
"But Zhongzhou doesn't need an army of 200,000 to conquer." King Wei bluntly exposed the merchant's lie.
"Yes!" The businessman rolled his eyes, "I heard that there is a powerful country in the east. They are confronting Luo Luo and preparing to attack Luo Luo. God, there is a country more powerful than Luo Luo.
?"
"have!"
"What is that country called?"
"Datang!"
…
Chang'an.
Helianguang has adapted to life in Chang'an, studying with King De every day, or going to the military camp to practice and hang out.
His life was very fulfilling, but it was too leisurely to compare with the prince.
The prince was so busy that he didn't get a holiday until the emperor showed his kindness.
"Go out for a walk." The emperor was very reasonable.
"yes!"
The prince changed into civilian clothes and left the palace with several guards.
After arriving at Lin's Dessert Shop, the prince found that Wang Qin and Guo Xiu were not there.
"I said I had something to do at home, so I asked for leave with a sad face."
Guo Xiu was away, so the shopkeeper Lin Huo could only go shirtless and knead the dough himself to make snacks for the first time in a long time.
The prince hesitated for a moment, then asked for the address of Guo Xiu's home, and then went to look for Wang Qin.
When they arrived outside Wang's house, they heard someone yelling inside, "The imperial court is planning to build a market here. This is a major event. Your Majesty has said that anyone who blocks this will be a sinner."
"But is it wrong for my family to just change to another house?" Guo Xiu's voice sounded very angry.
"That's right, isn't this going to compensate your family?"
"But that house is in the monastery, and there are many cemeteries in it. Not only my family's house, but also a beggar's family would not trade that place for it."
"This is an order from the court, Wang Fu, why can't you control your wife? If you can't control her, Ye Ye will take her to the county house for correction. Don't blame Ye Ye for not warning you, once you get in there,
When you come out again, it won’t be like this.”
"That's it, madam, that's it."
"What the hell! I'll just say one thing today, the Wang family won't change the residence of the practice house."
"If you don't eat the toast, you will be fined with wine! Take her down!"
"Aniang!"
Wang Qin screamed, "I will fight with you."
Knock knock knock!
Just as they were preparing to fight inside, someone knocked on the door.
But the door is not closed at all!
The two subordinates turned around holding chains in their hands.
Wang Fu, who was holding Guo Xiu, looked up.
Guo Xiu raised his head.
Wang Qin, who was holding a broom, slowly turned around.
Outside the door, A Liang asked politely: "Can you be reasonable?"
"Hit the motherfucker!"
A subordinate official shouted about filial piety.
"Why bother?"
Ah Liang rolled up his sleeves and rushed over.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
While the Wang family was stunned, two subordinates were severely beaten by A Liang and lay on the ground wailing.
Someone had already reported to the police outside the door, and soon the people from the Jinwu Guard arrived.
A brigade commander was responsible for escorting the land acquisition. Hearing that the matter was getting serious, he personally brought a team of sergeants to deal with it.
He walked into Wang's house.
"It's over!" Wang Fu's face was ashen.
Guo Xiu's face turned pale.
Wang Qin said to A Liang: "It's my family that has dragged you down..."
The brigade commander came in and looked around majestically... Finally his eyes stopped at A Liang.
