Chapter 353 Turmoil
But there is no time for Ye Weirong to think about it! Under Huang Fu's repeated provocations, the seeds of doubt planted a few days ago have grown into towering trees. The angry Cai Guo finally made up his mind. "Deprive Cao Guobin of all his positions and reflect at home! Without orders, don't go out!"
In the end, the emperor was nostalgic, and all his reason was not burned by the anger. He always felt that this matter was a bit weird, and he kept it a little bit; and Cao Guobin was a grand master after all, after all, he had made great contributions to Cai Guo, and the emperor Cai Guo also had to take into account the influence force.
But how could Huang Fu give Cao Guobin this chance? After all, Cao Guobin is not an idiot, as long as he has time, he will definitely come back slowly. In political confrontation, the most taboo is to be soft-handed. When it is time to strike, you must be ruthless. After defeating the political enemy, you must step on it, so that the enemy will never stand up again!
Moreover, Emperor Cai Guo was not completely confused. After the golden cicada escaped his shell this time, Emperor Cai Guo seemed to be waking up and waking up little by little under the stimulation of the disaster. During the golden cicada's escape, Huang Fu had to be cautious because of the decisiveness and rationality shown by Emperor Cai.
Therefore, Huang Fu immediately made a suggestion: "Your Majesty, be careful of Anyang, the Yan family may already be making preparations. The lessons learned from the past must be guarded against; now that Anyang is stronger, it has the ability and many ways and means to save people."
Yes, be careful of Anyang, be careful of another Yan family coming out; now Anyang has the ability to intervene to save people! Moreover, the Yan family has already brought so many benefits to the development of Anyang, if the Cao family fled to Anyang again, the consequences would be disastrous!
Emperor Cai finally made up his mind to kill! Among other things, a "great achievement" has already killed 80% of Cao Guobin's life. The situation of the Great Xia Kingdom in the south is the most direct reference for Emperor Cai! Those who rebelled are all the generation of "superior achievements".
Coupled with these doubts, the Cao family was ransacked and beheaded. Cutting the weeds means eradicating the roots. With the precedent of the Yan family, this time the Emperor Cai will show no mercy. This matter was carried out overnight!
Before dawn, Cao Guobin's family has become history. But this incident also cast a shadow over Cai Guo.
Then Emperor Cai ordered the withdrawal of all defenders at the western and northwest borders. The plane delivering the order arrived at the border at dawn. Because the family members of these generals are all in Sanchuan, these generals can only lead the army to retreat to Sanchuan.
…………
To the west of Cai State, it was very dawn. Chen Guangyi, the general of Chen State's border gate, looked at the east and always felt that something was missing.
"Why is there no cooking smoke?" The military division pointed out the key point!
Chen Guangyi suddenly realized, "Send someone to check, be careful."
Immediately, a master of the Jindan stage flew to the mid-air to investigate; there were also a large number of scouts to attack in an all-round way. Just during the cup of tea time, there was a message that the border of Cai State was empty! All the pots, pans, etc. were left where they were, but they were all smashed; and the wells etc. were filled. In addition, cattle, horses and livestock that could not be taken away were all beheaded.
"Explore again!" Chen Guangyi's face was serious, what's going on? If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
Soon, the Jindanqi expert in sky reconnaissance sent back more accurate information that the more than 200,000 Cai Guo border guards had all retreated! While hesitating, someone came to report that there was a letter from Cai Guo's envoy.
When Chen Guangyi opened the letter, he was stunned; it has only been a few days, and Cai Guo has changed so much? What the letter said was quite clear, Cai Guo had already retreated and defended, and the vast land beyond Sanchuan was given to Chen Guo.
"It's so generous, you just gave it to us like this?" Chen Guangyi sneered, "I wonder if our neighbor in the north, Zheng Guo, has also received such a letter?"
The military adviser immediately gave a suggestion: "General, at this moment we should first control Cai's border and hold the dangerous place in our hands; then report the matter to the imperial capital. Then send scouts to investigate more specific situations.
Also, through the embassy in Anyang to investigate the whole story and specific circumstances of this matter. I think that there will definitely be detailed information in Anyang! "
"That's right, let's do it!" Chen Guangyi immediately accepted the advice of the military adviser.
At the same time, similar things happened in the states of Zheng and Deng further north.
But only Chen Guo and Chen Guangyi were more cautious here. They just occupied the border of Cai Guo and held the dangerous places in their own hands, so they didn't continue to march. However, the border generals of Zheng Guo and Deng Guo sent troops directly after confirming the situation.
…………
As night fell, Li Xian and his party came out from the Dragon Palace.
But at this moment, Li Xian sighed a little: "Although the state of Dragon Palace's book collection is a bit bad, there are a lot of good things; we need to set up a special department to sort out these things. But for the time being, we don't seem to have any talents in this area."
No one spoke; after waiting for a while, Xiao Yuquan opened his mouth and said, "Maybe I have a direction here."
"Oh?" Li Xian looked over.
"Mangshan Cultivation Dojo!" Xiao Yuquan's tone was affirmative, "I have contacted the dojo many times before; several Nascent Soul stage masters in the dojo are a little tempted and want to come to Anyang. But they are a little inexplicably worried and not sure. .”
Inexplicable worry? Li Xian knew what their so-called worry was when he thought about it on his knees - it was just interests. What kind of benefits can be obtained by taking refuge in Anyang, this is naturally a question of great concern to everyone. In this regard, it is difficult for Anyang to give a standard, because there are too many cultivators of all kinds, and there are no two identical people in the world.
After thinking about it, Li Xian said: "The matter of sorting out the data of the Dragon Clan is one of the most important things in Anyang, and it must be kept secret.
In this way, Qingqing, you draw some teachers and students from the school, Fang Shijing, you draw some elites from the group to form a special 'archaeological team' to take charge of this aspect temporarily. However, there is a lack of Nascent Soul stage masters in the school and the group, and the Mangshan Cultivation Dojo is a good choice.
Yan Ze'an, Yuan Yong, you two and Xiao Yuquan go to the Mangshan Cultivation Dojo and have a talk.
It is already a gift for them to have the opportunity to study the Dragon Clan's collection, so there is no need to promise them more conditions; if they are not satisfied, it's okay not to. Nowadays, there are more and more Nascent Soul stage masters here, so we don't have to worry about finding talented and reliable talents! "
"Understood." Yan Ze'an responded, "Xiao Yuquan, let's go tomorrow. Let's rest tonight."
Xiao Yuquan hesitated for a while, "Master, I'll hurry back to Mangshan tonight, I'll persuade you first."
"Alright. For your sake, I can give Mangshan Xiuzhen Dojo a little guarantee; they can get enough resources from Anyang, including martial art technology business, etc., to develop their dojo."
Xiao Yuquan was overjoyed, this is indeed a very generous condition. For the Mangshan Cultivation Dojo, they were originally a sect, but later due to various resources and the rise of the country, they had to transform into a dojo. If Anyang can provide enough resources, then Mangshan Xiuzhen Dojo will hopefully restore the "school" tens of thousands of years ago and continue to pass on.
For a sect, inheritance is the most important thing.
Xiao Yuquan left overnight, planning to discuss with his former fellow Taoists, or to dissuade him in advance.
Here, Li Xian and his party should go back to Qingyun Valley in Qingyun Valley, and return to the City Lord's Mansion in the City Lord's Mansion. But when Li Xian just stepped into the city lord's mansion, Chen Jinbing, who had been waiting anxiously for a long time, chased after him, "Young Master, something is wrong. The plane detected the latest news. Cai Guo is still hiding in Sanchuan and defending all the western frontiers." The troops were all withdrawn, and Chen Guo, Zheng Guo, and Deng Guo were allowed to enter the pass.
Now, Chen Guo has occupied the Cai Guo Pass, and there is no danger within five hundred miles inward.
Zheng Guo and Deng Guo have already dispatched troops, and the two families will not interfere with each other for the time being. "
Li Xian was stunned for a moment, "We didn't continue to attack, Cai Guo still did this?"
Xu Ren pondered for a while, "It seems that Cai Guo also has a sensible person who knows the truth of cutting off the tail to survive. He was not attracted by the immediate interests, and he had already given up on Shangyong City, let go of a large area of land, and still carried out the wolf drive The strategy of swallowing tigers."
Li Yuanming immediately analyzed: "In the future, the situation in the northwest will become a mess. Chen Guo, Zheng Guo, Deng Guo, Xiao Guo, Tang Guo, the five countries are fighting for hegemony."
Yan Ze'an was also thinking, but at this moment, someone came in again, it was Wang Cong, another soldier beside Li Xian. "Young Master, there is news from the southwest that Nanyang County, Guangling County, and Songzhou County have united. They still retain the name of the Great Xia Kingdom in the past, and they elected the third prince as the emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom."
