In the past five years, the situation in the Shanhai Realm has changed greatly. The Beizhao Continent was almost occupied by the Donglin Dynasty, leaving only the small vassal alliance headed by Yancheng to occupy the southeastern area. This small vassal alliance is also called the Southeast Alliance.
The adjacent Nanfeng Continent is completely under the jurisdiction of Jingyao Kingdom, and Jingyao Kingdom has also been promoted from a large country to a dynasty.
The situation where hundreds of princes co-existed and divided their territories was broken, and turned into a tense situation between two dynasties, with the Southeastern Alliance caught in the middle.
The Southeast Alliance is an obstacle to the Donglin Dynasty's unification of Beizhao, and it is also the object of support of the Jingyao Dynasty. The three parties are in a stalemate. Under the surface peace, the current arms war has evolved. The three parties have gathered talents and material resources from all over the world.
This also means that the resources available to other forces are declining.
Zhan Changfeng learned about the situation in the two continents from Wen Chen, and knew that the two continents had been completely divided, and there was no room for new princes to rise.
Melee is undoubtedly the best time to fight with small things.
If you miss that melee period, it will be difficult to gain a place. This is the conclusion Zhan Changfeng drew from the various events that occurred in the Shanhai Realm in the past five years.
It's too late. If it had been five years earlier, we might have been able to carve out one side through war and use the Southeast Alliance to gain a foothold.
Zhan Changfeng frowned and thought deeply. From the corner of his eye, he saw three stewards outside the flower hall and asked Wen Chen, "Where is Lianwei?"
"Who is Lianwei?" Wen Chen looked at her doubtfully.
Surprise flashed across Zhan Changfeng's eyes, he rubbed his black jade finger, and then he asked, "Where is the helmsman of the Shang Ding Association?"
"The president's whereabouts are mysterious, and I don't know either." Wen Chen is not sure what her relationship is with the president of the Shang Ding Association. In the early years, the Day Clan followed the Shang Ding Association, but five years ago the Day Clan was arrested again.
After separation, no matter whether they are separated or united, the president of the Shang Ding Association and the Day Clan will be in charge.
He was suddenly worried. Over the years, he knew to some extent that Shang Dinghui and the Day Clan had gone through several major blood changes. If Zhan Changfeng came to bring back the Day Clan, it would be unlikely to succeed.
Wen Chen thought about the original question. Zhan Changfeng didn't really bring people to cause trouble, right?!
This...who should he help?
"Where is Shuo Yu?" Zhan Changfeng asked.
"Shuo Yu left four years ago. I heard he was going to the Wilderness Realm." Wen Chen became more and more uncertain. In fact, there were rumors at the time that Shuo Yu was in the way of the president's rectification of the Day Clan, so he was squeezed out. There were also rumors that Shuo Yu was pushed away.
Dissatisfied with the president's governance, he ran away.
"You should be able to contact Rannian and You Buhui, right?"
They were Bai Hen's disciples and later joined the Day Clan. Wen Chen was still very familiar with them, "Rannian went to Shennongmen to learn skills, and You Buhui is still here. Can I help you call You Buhui?"
"
"Thank you." She currently doesn't know much about the situation of the Shang Dinghui and the Day Clan, and she can't find Lianwei, so she can only look for old friends first.
While waiting for others, she asked a few more questions about Ran Nian. She was a little surprised that Ran Nian would go to Shennongmen to learn skills, but it was also reasonable.
Before his debut, Bai Hen was a direct disciple of the Shennong Sect. He was qualified to accept disciples and teach the Shennong Sect's exercises to his own disciples, and their disciples would also read the Shennong Sect's Taoist book.
However, it is said that although he accepted two disciples, he did so in his personal capacity and did not teach them medical skills, so Ran Nian and You Buhui have nothing to do with the Shennong Sect.
Ran Nian entered Shennongmen this time, perhaps to commemorate Bai Hen and hope to have some contact with the master's sect.
Because of the Rendan incident, Zhan Changfeng had reservations about Shennongmen.
However, the Shennong Sect has retrieved their Taoist inheritance Shennong Book, and there is hope that they will be able to join the sect again in the future. The future is theoretically good, and Ran Nian may be able to gain some fortune from it.
"Senior Wen, are you looking for me?" Before anyone could be seen, the casual voice came first. A person entered the flower hall, wearing a pink robe and a tiger-head copper belt around his waist. The collar was wide open, revealing a firm wheat-colored chest.
The same appearance all year round.
The only thing that has changed is probably that he has grown a beard, leaving only a small patch on his chin.
He looked at the three people in the hall in surprise. Wu Feiyu had seen him before, but the other one was unfamiliar.
Wu Feiyu saw his expression and said happily, "I used to wear a mask to fool people, but now you are dumbfounded. No one recognizes you."
Of course, this was said to Zhan Changfeng, who felt helpless, "When I met you again, I was also wearing a mask. How did you recognize me?"
Wu Feiyu said with a cryptic expression, "Extraordinary talent."
Wen Chen coughed and Chaoyou Buhui pointed out Zhan Changfeng's identity.
You Buhui seemed to have been struck by lightning, "No, aren't you plain-looking? No, aren't you trapped in Xiaoli Realm?!"
"Ask Senior Wen for details." Zhan Changfeng didn't want to explain it a second time and went straight to the point, "Do you know where the leader of the Shang Dinghui is?"
"President." You Buhui hesitated for a moment. He didn't expect Zhan Changfeng to come back. Who does the Day Clan belong to?
You Bugui muttered, "The Day Clan has changed a lot, and there have been changes in personnel."
He first gave Zhan Changfeng a brief introduction, and then said, "The president has developed the Day Clan in the direction of sects, built a military academy, and recruited young disciples. During this period, there were some frictions between various sects and dynasties, and there was no need to worry about spiritual resources.
He said that the distribution of these disciples alone is not good enough. In order to enrich the reserve army, the dynasty is busy selecting and training talented children from all over the country. Every sect also wants disciples. How can we watch them take away all the talented people and go back and forth?
, shouldn’t we make trouble?”
"Moreover, the Shanhai Alliance, which was originally composed of princes and sects, collapsed during the melee. Now the forces are all working on their own, and no one is coming to mediate. All aspects are in chaos."
"Bingshuyuan originally only took in some children in Yang Jiecheng and didn't extend its reach. However, some people may have realized that the Zhou clan has several realms of life and death and has great potential for future development. They have made many actions overtly and covertly. Some people want to directly
Some of those who destroyed it wanted to keep it in their pockets to provide civil and military talents for their own families. Among them, Cang Xihou was the most important."
You Buhui said solemnly, "Cang Xihou suffered a loss from the president, and actually pushed the Shang Ding Association and the Day Clan under the eyes of the Southeast Alliance. I want the Shang Ding Association and the Day Clan to serve the Southeast Alliance, and the Southeast Alliance
There is a shadow of the Jingyao Dynasty behind the alliance, and the president is under a lot of pressure. I don’t know the details. I only know that the president promised to support the Southeast Alliance in materials in the name of the Shang Ding Association, and this calmed the storm."
"I heard that the president will send a batch of supplies to the Southeast Alliance recently, and they should be back soon." You Buhui added, "There are people in Yaoguang who are participating in the escort. How about I ask for you?"
"No need." It was her original plan to open a military academy within the Zhou clan and cultivate military talents from an early age. It was not surprising that Lian Wei would do this.
But the pressure on the Shang Ding Hui and the Day Clan was greater than she imagined.
She didn't expect at the time that the world of mountains and seas would undergo such drastic changes in such a short period of time.
Zhan Changfeng said to Wu Feiyu, "I'll go to the Southeast Alliance to have a look. You can rest here for a few days."
"Don't you need help?" Wu Feiyu also heard that the Southeast Alliance was a bit too bullying, "Let's see if they have magical powers to take over. If not, they are just a bunch of rabble."
Anyway, they can kill anyone with magical powers.
"It's not that simple." She had just heard from Wen Chen that the lord of Yan City was Yan Weishan, and Yan Weishan was also the leader of the Southeast Alliance.
Others may not know that Yan Weishan is a disciple of the Holy Land, and his strength cannot be underestimated.
What's more, according to what they said, the Southeast Alliance is related to the Jingyao Dynasty.
Involving the Southeast Alliance would not only facilitate the Donglin Dynasty to unify Beizhao, but would also enmity the Jingyao Dynasty, which would outweigh the gains and losses.
