Chapter 265: Kings of Two Kingdoms

(Literary Master M) "Did something important happen? Look at your weeping words. It really surprised us... These people looked at each other in blank dismay. The whole of Zhongzhou was turned upside down last night. There is a bloody smell... Could it be that you didn't hear it at all in the prime minister's mansion?

No one of us believes this.

However, although the three of them thought so in their hearts, seeing Wu Qingrou's calmness and comfort at this moment, they couldn't help but feel at ease. It seems that such a big thing is really not worth taking to heart...

When he first came in, Zhou was impetuous, already unconsciously running to nowhere.

"A big thing happened!" Jing Menghun said, "Last night, more than 20,000 Jianghu people fought for the Wentian Sword and the Huangquan Sword in many places in the city, destroying the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Household Affairs. The yamen, the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, and even the garrison office in the capital are in ruins. There are countless casualties of personnel and soldiers, and the statistics are now being counted."

"Oh..." Wu Wuqing nodded slightly: "Is that all?"

Is that all? The three were speechless at the same time. Are these still few?

Especially Jing Menghun was depressed, because of the chaos last night, Di Wuqingrou strictly ordered the Golden Horse Knights Hall not to participate in the quelling of the chaos. This led to the chaos in Zhongzhou City.

If the Golden Horse Knights Hall had been dispatched, there would definitely not be such a mess!

"King Hades of Chu's plan is really vicious!" Han Buchu said worriedly: "Besides, it seems that it has been done, and it has caused chaos in Zhongzhou. Right now, the city is already like a battlefield, and the outsiders are actually Yue Yue. There are more and more, and Zhongzhou City is about to be saturated, and the bloody fights are becoming more and more fierce. Now there are hundreds of fights every day, and many people from the rivers and lakes even dare to attack the army...,

"Ordinary people are panic-stricken. If this continues, what can happen?"

"Hmm..." Fifth Qingrou raised his face, and said thoughtfully, "Gao Sheng, how about that Ji Gong?"

"He knows Chu Yan Wang, and he has a good personal relationship. He didn't hide anything about it." Gao Sheng frowned: "However, he refused to disclose any information, and...he said that when the Ji family came to Zhongzhou, he would Just return with the family..."

"Hmm... It really does not leak water." Wu Wu softly sighed, nodded, and said: "A younger brother from such an aristocratic family, and also the second lord, seems to be extraordinary. Originally, there would not be any breakthroughs here; but ...Have you brought our attitude?"

"I brought it, but Ji Mo doesn't seem to care much about it.

Gao Sheng said: "His reaction was very flat." "

"Well, we need to send an expert to keep an eye on Ji Mo's whereabouts." Wu Wuqing softly pondered: "Is that blind? Is there any doubt?"

"As for the ignorant man, he is the descendant of the thief..." Gao Sheng said cautiously, "This person's identity is extraordinary, if two masters with the peak cultivation of the ninth-rank throne walk around him, there may be endless troubles. And looking for him...is not within the rules of the Nine Heavens..."

"As long as the identity is verified correctly, it's not worth moving even a small incomprehension..." Fifth lightly smiled softly, and said, "Didn't the garrison outside the city be dispatched last night?"

"No." Han Buchu said solemnly: "Master, we have to dispatch troops from outside the city to come in, only relying on these in the city... I'm afraid, I'm afraid our strength is too weak."

"No!" Wu Wu gently waved his hand, and said decisively: "Let him make trouble! Let him make trouble! The bigger the trouble, the better, and the more chaos the better. This will attract people from all corners of the country within a thousand miles of Dazhao. , it doesn't matter!"

"Ah?!" Han Buchu never expected that Di Wuqingrou would say such a sentence.

"Master Xiang, if you let the trouble go on...I'm afraid that Zhongzhou City will..." Han Buchu gasped and said hastily.

"I don't know, you are still stuck in the old mode of dynasties fighting for hegemony; you regard a city as very important." Fifth softly said: "You have to look at the long-term."

"Longer term?" Han Buchu was a little at a loss. It was the first time that he felt that his thoughts could not keep up after so many years with Wu Qingrou.

Zhongzhou is the capital of Zhao, how important is it? Isn't it important in Wu Wuqingrou's eyes?

"Zhongzhou is the capital of Great Zhao. It is located at the core of Great Zhao, surrounded by many cities and guarded by heavy troops! Even the closest enemy is six thousand miles away! It is no exaggeration to say that it is impregnable. !" Fifth lightly smiled lightly: "But in my eyes, this is simply a joke! A joke that makes people cast aside infinitely!"

"A joke?" Han Buchu frowned and lowered his head to think about the meaning of this sentence. Not only him, but also Gao Sheng and Jing Menghun couldn't help thinking about it.

"Building the capital in such a protected location on all sides is simply the cradle of cowards!" Fifth said softly and lowly: "Even if the capital cannot be built on the front line, it should not be in the cradle, and an appropriate distance should be set. , there is a sense of crisis all the time, and then no matter whether it is a civil servant or a military general, they will work hard and protect with all their strength! Moreover, they will do their best to expand the territory and eliminate threats! This is the way to a strong country!

"Back then, although the first monarch of Dazhao was grand and grand, after conquering the country, it was clearly for pleasure and success! So the capital was set in Zhongzhou! It is a miracle that such a king was able to found the country! And the following Over the past few years, their misleading has delayed Da Zhao for hundreds of years! For generations, it is this invisible conservative thinking that has influenced the monarchs of all dynasties and completely delayed Da Zhao's hegemony!"

"Even if he is a promising monarch, but he is thousands of miles away from the battlefield, seeing and hearing everything is singing and dancing...how can he cultivate any enterprising ambition?"

Fifth Qingrou smiled faintly, but the smile was full of sarcasm: "So, Da Zhao didn't have the strength to expand until I, Fifth Qingrou, started to expand! Before that, it wasn't that he was unable to expand, but that he didn't want to; if it wasn't for me, the first Wu Qingrou, I dare say that one day, Da Zhao's entire country will collapse in ease!"

"And the biggest threat is Tie Yun!" Wu Wuqingrou walked to the window, raised his eyes to the north, and said slowly: "Look, when Tie Yun is snowing heavily, passers-by are wearing three-layer raccoon fur coats, and they can't help but feel cold." But here we can live through the winter wearing only a jacket. Three thousand miles south of Zhongzhou, it is like spring all the year round! Can’t you see such a strong regional difference?”

"What?" Han Buchu asked subconsciously.

"In a place of severe cold, there must be unruly people! The region is difficult, and martial arts are bound to be proficient! Moreover, the iron clouds are all over the prairie, approaching the northern border; iron cloud men, looking around one by one, it is like the sky and the earth are connected, how big is that? If things go on like this, how can we not practice martial arts?" Fifth Qingrou said: "For thousands of years, the northerners have been a symbol of toughness, and the chaos on the border is all driven by the northerners."

"Compared to Tie Yun, Da Zhao is too weak in person." Fifth Qingrou said lightly: "So we must make changes!"

Han Buchu remained silent, thinking about Wu Qingrou's words carefully, but felt that there seemed to be some truth in it, and it seemed to be full of other meanings...

"Looking at Tie Yun's country, you only see that it is now being suppressed and beaten by Da Zhao; but you have overlooked, how long has it been since Tie Yun founded the country?" Fifth Qingrou said lightly: "Three hundred years ago, Tie Yun's Tie family was just one Family; but after years of expansion, the family’s private army expanded enough to generate ambition, so it replaced it... more than two hundred years ago, Tie Yun founded the country! At that time, it was just a country with more than a dozen cities.”

"One hundred and thirty years ago, Tie Yun already owned the land of Dayi; nearly a hundred cities!"

"Eighty years ago, Tie Yun's land expanded again, with an army enough for millions of people..." Fifth Qingrou sighed deeply: "Forty years ago, Tie Shicheng was born, directly turning the already huge Tie Yun's territory has doubled in sixteen years! Gradually, even the vast prairie dare not invade Tie Yun!"

"But Tie Shicheng is still not satisfied, and sent a million troops south to fight against Da Zhao!" Wu Wuqingrou took a deep breath: "Up to now, although I have trapped Tie Yun with poisonous tricks, Tie Yun's Tie Butian, the monarch of a generation, turned out to be another one of the sky!"

"Over the past two hundred years, Tie Yun has changed seven or eight monarchs, but Tie Yun's territory has expanded from more than two hundred years ago to the present, and it is already thousands of times larger than when the country was founded!"

Fifth sighed softly: "Faced with such data, don't you feel pressure? Don't you feel fear?!"

"What does this mean? Haven't you thought about it at all?" Wu Wuqingrou had a trace of fatigue in his eyes.

"Could it be that... these iron-luck lords are all founding lords?" Han Buchu finally heard something. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly came up with an answer that left him dumbfounded.

"A dozen monarchs, a dozen peerless heroes!" Fifth Qingrou said with deep eyes, "There are also a dozen ambitious overlords!"

"And you think about the Great Zhao Empire, more than 20 monarchs appeared in the past two hundred years!" Fifth Qingrou sighed deeply: "How about comparing with Tie Yun?"

Han Buchu lowered his head in shame. He had to say that since the founding emperor, there were only a few emperors in succession who worked hard to make Da Zhao completely strong, but since then, they have never moved again, and they have always maintained the foundation of their ancestors. .

It seems to be conservative, but in fact, it is retreating.

In the past few years, the monarchs of all dynasties, there are not many faint monarchs, but all of them are mediocre and mediocre, without any domineering power to swallow the world.

Compared with the monarchs of the same period as Tie Yun, the monarch of Dazhao is directly equivalent to a waste

"Such a king is no longer worthy of being a king!" Wu Wuqing sighed deeply. Such rebellious words came out of his mouth, but Han Buchu and others only felt a kind of sincerity, which was taken for granted.

It is indeed unworthy!

If Fifth Qingrou says it's not worthy, then it must be unworthy! literature big m
