"Qingfeng." Chang Sheng frowned in Changyang City and said the word calmly. Beside him, Chang Shiro became confused.
"In other words, the little boss has another big plan?"
"That should be the case. In the matter of the five states in the South China Sea, Qingfeng personally intervened and defeated Deng Zhou."
"I just picked one up, and he has another one... How come there are so many conspirators in the world now?"
"In troubled times, talented people emerge in large numbers." Chang Sheng raised his head, and the worry on his face suddenly became more serious.
"If Zhao Di doesn't die, there will be no chaos in the five states of the South China Sea. If I am not mistaken and the situation in the five states of the South China Sea is stabilized, that Qingfeng will probably come to the front."
"It's a pity that the situation in the Western Region is too difficult for the iron torture platform to infiltrate. I can't figure it out at the moment, and I can't judge the origin of this Qingfeng. However, there is no doubt that he has a plan."
Changshiro held the wine cup and took two sips in silence.
"Don't be anxious, always win, be more stable."
"I'm just afraid that I will disgrace my clan brother."
"There is a trivial matter. If you follow my temper, I will kill you directly. Whoever wins will become the emperor."
Chang Sheng smiled bitterly, "Brother, we have to worry about the opinions of the noble families in the north. Moreover, Western Shu is famous for water warfare. It may not be easy to cross the Yangtze River and attack south."
"I understand all this. I'm just worried that if I keep playing like this, I won't know what to say when I see my little boss again. Oh no, I seem to have told him that we will never see each other again unless we go to mourn. "
Chang Sheng nodded helplessly.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, I believe in you." Chang Shilang stretched and stood up, and comforted, "In a few days, I will go to Hebei again. In the past two or three years, I have been taking care of everything. Let’s go to war.”
Chang Sheng stood up and bowed. When Chang Silang walked away, he clenched his fists and faced the darkness ahead, his eyes becoming sharp.
…
Bang.
In the Jiaozhou Palace, Deng Zhou was tightly bound and thrown to the ground by his guards.
Thanks to Chen Que's symptomatic medication, Zhao Di, who was sitting on the throne at this time, had softened his expression a lot. He lowered his head and looked coldly at Deng Zhou below.
"Thieves, thieves from the five states of the South China Sea!" Deng Zhou shouted angrily, without any intention of begging for mercy.
Two guards came over and threatened to slap them, but they were driven away by Zhao Di.
"Let him speak. I want to see what truth he can tell. Zhao Dong, listen carefully."
Zhao Dong, who was rescued, was covered in wounds. Hearing his father's words, he hurriedly held his hands and sat down with his body propped up.
Li Liuyi sat aside, with a smile in his eyes. How could he not know that the King of Jiaozhou in front of him wanted to take the opportunity to educate his son.
"Zhao Thief, did you know that Western Shu is going to annex our five states in the South China Sea!" Deng Zhou shouted while breathing heavily.
"What is annexation?"
"Haha, silly, you are so silly! Do you think that Xu Buyi, lying on his side, will let the five states of the South China Sea be separated from each other?" Deng Zhou laughed like a madman.
Zhao Di smiled and said, "Since ancient times, the law of the jungle has always been about preying on the strong. If we don't carry out military campaigns in the Great Era, we will be in danger of destroying the country. Let me ask you, Deng Zhou, what would have happened to the five states in the South China Sea a hundred years ago?"
Deng Zhou stared and did not answer.
"Dong'er, tell me."
Zhao Dong thought for a while and said, "As a minister, as the guard of the southern border of the Central Plains."
"That's it." Zhao Di raised his head, "Whether it's me or your father Deng Yu, after all, we don't have the ability to compete in troubled times and get to the top of the Ninth Five-Year Plan."
"Back then, the unification of Daji allowed me, the five states of the South China Sea, to surrender as vassals. So, if Western Shu were to be unified, would I, Zhao Di, have done something wrong by proclaiming vassals?"
On both sides of the palace, there were many kings of the five states, as well as civil servants and military generals. They were all as silent as a cicada at this time and did not dare to answer.
Deng Zhou gritted his teeth and snorted coldly.
"Three years ago, some of you asked me to help Demon Queen Su, saying that Demon Queen Su was orthodox, but Western Shu won and King Xu Shu won."
"Last year, someone among you asked me to help Dongling, saying that if Dongling cooperated with the King of Grain, he would definitely defeat Xishu. But Xishu still won, and King Xu Shu won again."
"It's good now. There are still some of you who want me to defect to Beiyu, saying that Beiyu is so powerful that Western Shu will be destroyed -"
Bang.
Zhao Di slapped his palm heavily on the desk. Not only the civil and military officials in the palace, but also Deng Zhou, who was kneeling on the ground, were suddenly startled.
"It's extremely stupid. Beiyu doesn't like southerners, and all of you here are southerners. If one day Beiyu really rules the world, I can tell you that the best outcome for our five states in the South China Sea is to be like before.
Similarly, it has become an alienated place on the edge of the Central Plains, selling rotten fish and shrimps to make a living. But you need to know that if Western Shu is unified, we and the five states in the South China Sea can become a major place for shipbuilding and going to sea. Rice in the south of the Yangtze River,
The white leaves in cold areas can also be planted in the five states of the South China Sea."
"Let's not talk about anything else. The official road leading from the Nanlin Mountains to the five states of the South China Sea has an endless stream of people selling goods every day."
Zhao Di stopped speaking and looked coldly at Deng Zhou below.
"Of course, some people must be thinking, in these troubled times, everything is in chaos. Western Sichuan and Northern Chongqing can compete for the world, why can't we in the South China Sea?"
"You idiot with a great reputation! You are fighting for nothing, just like your idiot father, sooner or later you will bring the five states of the South China Sea into despair!"
"When two tigers are fighting, don't reach out. If you stretch out your hand, it means death." Zhao Di raised his head and exhaled, "What we have to do is to find a way to help this thin tiger in Xishu.
After eating and drinking enough, I completely defeated another tiger in the north."
"Of course, you idiot, you won't have such a vision. Being born in troubled times and not being able to become the emperor of the new dynasty is a real injustice to you."
Zhao Di waved his hand in disgust.
Deng Zhou, who was on the ground, gritted his teeth and still refused to accept the decision. However, the guard who came over picked up a melon hammer and slapped him down. Suddenly, his body collapsed limply and he was dragged out like a dead dog.
"Dong'er, do you understand?"
"Father, I understand." Zhao Dong said seriously.
"Then you all understand, do you?"
"Leader, we all understand!"
"Very good." Zhao Di turned his head and hugged Li Liu.
Li Liu didn't dare to express his gratitude and hurriedly stood up to return the favor.
"From now on, within the five states of the South China Sea, there is no need to talk about surrendering to Beiyu. I have already intended to let Ruan Qiu first lead 40,000 soldiers to cross the camp and enter the south of the Yangtze River to obey the orders of the Eastern Military Advisor."
Ruan Qiu, who was nearby, had already received the order. At this time, he cupped his fists and stepped out of the queue steadily.
"Starting from tomorrow, the five states in the South China Sea will recruit another round of new troops. This time the new troops will be sent to Bailu County in Chengdu for training and will become the Western Shu Navy."
"The war is about to begin. We, the five states in the South China Sea, will never stand by and watch. We are willing to help Western Shu and seize the thirty states in the Central Plains!"
