Chapter 968 Holy Grail War? (Part 1)

"You still refuse to surrender, you are so stubborn, Song Jiang is really good at it."

Shen Fei shook his head secretly as he watched the people of Liangshan fall down one after another under the attack of the imperial army's Tiangang Wulei and thunder and fire bombs, but still refused to surrender.

Song Jiang is indeed capable, turning a group of bandits into such a strict organization with stricter discipline than ordinary troops, but it is a pity that he met Shen Fei this time, and his road to amnesty was completely failed.

To get an official position, kill people and set fires to be amnesty, this is one of the drawbacks of the Song Dynasty. Why the army of the Song Dynasty was so corrupt, one of the big reasons is this. Song Jiang wanted to be amnesty, but he had a lesson from the past.

The peasant uprisings in the Song Dynasty were the most in history. For these uprisings, those that could be suppressed were naturally suppressed, and those that could not be suppressed were amnesty, and then incorporated into the army. Over time, the combat effectiveness of the army naturally declined.

Some people say that the Song Dynasty was the richest dynasty, and Shen Fei also admitted this. With the wealth he had obtained during this period, he could have made the Song Dynasty a powerful country.

But the problem is that all this money came from the scholar-official class, and the common people were very poor, otherwise there would not be so many peasant uprisings.

It would rather send a large amount of annual tribute to various countries every year than use this money to improve the domestic situation. This is the Song Dynasty. It can be said that except for Dali, the Song Dynasty had to send a large amount of annual tribute to other countries every year.

However, after his arrival, these so-called annual tributes naturally stopped.

"I'm sorry, brothers, surrender."

What Shen Fei didn't know was that Ji Shiyu didn't want to surrender, but he fainted after vomiting blood. The subsequent battle was completely ordered by others. For these Liangshan heroes who were mainly based on loyalty, there was naturally no such thing as surrendering without a fight.

After a large number of brothers died, under the blessing of hatred, let alone surrender.

After waking up, Shijiyu was very distressed when he knew about this situation. Whether he was sad about the loss of his brothers or the great loss of Liangshan, and that he would not be reused if he surrendered, only he knew.

"You surrendered, so accept it." Since Liangshan surrendered, Shen Fei immediately ordered people to stop the attack, as enough people had been killed.

"You dog official, please accept your death."

In front of the Loyalty Hall of Liangshan, just when Shen Fei was about to accept the surrender of Song Jiang and others, a sturdy and dark-skinned man rushed over with two axes.

"Tie Niu, stop."

The sudden change made Song Jiang and others change their faces. They never thought that such a fatal change would happen at this critical moment.

"Black Whirlwind, it seems that you hate me very much."

Shen Fei naturally knew about Black Whirlwind Li Kui, and he could also see the other party's serious hatred. He just shook his head slightly and had no intention of taking action at all.

At the same time, the four people who had been behind him attacked instantly, and four long swords pierced the body of Black Whirlwind from four different directions.

Originally, Shen Fei wanted to get a six-sword slave, but it was difficult to get them together at the moment, so he could only get four first. I don’t know if he has them here, and Wuqing has four female guards trained by him using Zhenren Dan and Juxian Dan.

Some people will not give up so easily. It doesn’t matter for him, but Wuqing is the focus, just like Shen Luoyan.

"Dog officer."

Even though he was pierced by four long swords, his body was strictly controlled and could not move at all. Black Whirlwind had already roared loudly, and this was his last roar.

"Don't worry about the little episode just now, let's continue."

"The environment here is good, it can be used as a tourist attraction in the future."

After accepting the surrender of Song Jiang and others, Shen Fei handed the matter over to others, and he himself visited Liangshan Marsh. After all, it was a rare opportunity.

At the same time, I also met some people who were only famous before, such as Lin Chong, Hua Heshang, Wu Song and others. They had a bad relationship with Song Jiang before, so they did not take action and survived.

For Lin Chong, Hua Heshang, Wu Song and others, they went to Liangshan just to find a place to live, and did not want to do something big from here. To be honest, the previous Liangshan was what they yearned for, but after Song Jiang came to power, various disciplines were rectified and strength was expanded, and they were dissatisfied in their hearts.

Liangshan used to be just a den of bandits and did not have much strength, so although it was wanted, not to mention the court, even the local government did not care too much, but as Liangshan's strength expanded, the encirclement and suppression of the government army naturally came.

This is like the pirates in the pirate world. Ordinary pirates will naturally not bother the generals to go out. There are too many people who have become bandits in this era. Even Shen Fei can't solve all of them, not to mention that he has more important things to do.

Of course, Shen Fei had no intention of making use of these people. What he was looking for now was talent in governing the country, and he was not short of martial arts masters. With the popularization of the Five Thunders of the Heavenly Gang, it would be more and more dangerous for martial arts masters to face the army.

"This magic weapon technique is not so useless. It uses golden needles and drugs to achieve an effect similar to that of Gu technique. If it is combined with thunder and fire bombs, it is completely a low-profile version of the Impure World Reincarnation."

After the Liangshan Marsh incident was resolved, Shen Fei did not personally take action against the remaining peasant uprisings. The Song Dynasty had the most peasant uprisings, with more than a dozen large and small uprisings occurring at the same time, probably because they were stimulated by Fang La and Liangshan.

For these uprisings, the main approach was to appease them. With food and policies in place, they could be quickly disintegrated. In comparison, the organized and disciplined uprising in Liangshan Marsh was the most dangerous.

At the same time, Shen Fei also studied the skills and mechanisms of this world, and planned to directly popularize those mechanisms that could improve life.

"The Jin Kingdom, the Liao Kingdom, even the Xixia and Tubo have come to join in the fun. This time, you will definitely come and go."

Not long after Shen Fei returned to the capital, the border was in danger. Such a fierce momentum immediately made some people jump up and attribute the reason entirely to Shen Fei. It was because he cancelled the annual tribute that the surrounding countries attacked.

"Your Majesty, treacherous ministers are in power, treacherous ministers are in power."

"Master Jia, you said it well, it's really well said, treacherous ministers are in power, I wonder if you know who the treacherous ministers are." Shen Fei couldn't help laughing at this impassioned performance.

"It seems that you have nothing to say, then I have something to say. I just caught two spies from the Jin Kingdom. Coincidentally, they have met Master Jia. I wonder how Master Jia will explain it."

"Your Majesty is wronged, and this old minister is wronged."

"Come on, take them away."

"You can't win on the front battlefield, so you want to do this. Unfortunately, the Song Dynasty is different now, but the name of this dynasty is still a bit uncomfortable. Find an opportunity to change it."

The Song Dynasty couldn't beat the Jin people, how could it be possible? Look at Yue Fei, and think about how he died, and you can know the specific situation. Originally, Shen Fei didn't want to change the dynasty, but the actions of those people today made him angry all of a sudden.

Under his leadership, Song will definitely become stronger and stronger, but giving this reputation to the Song Dynasty makes him feel a little unhappy. These wimps are not worthy of it.

"Kill this traitor, kill him."

On the street, the prison car carrying Mr. Jia was driving slowly. The people on both sides of the street looked at him with disgust. At the same time, rotten eggs and rotten leaves, led by someone, threw them at him.

"It's really hard for them to collect so many rotten eggs."

"Wow, what is this cow tongue ghosts and gods jumping out? I haven't done anything to you yet, and you jumped out, so don't blame me."

With him providing logistics in the rear, and weapons such as Tiangang Wulei that are beyond this era, and famous generals like Di Qing on the front line, it is naturally impossible to lose. To put it bluntly, as long as there is enough support in the rear, even without weapons such as Tiangang Wulei and Leihuo bombs, the Song Dynasty will not lose to the surrounding countries.

The reason why the Song Dynasty could not even defeat the tiny country of Xixia was that although the army of the Song Dynasty was weak, it was not all like this. There would be Yue Family Army in later generations, and the army under Di Qing in this era still had considerable combat effectiveness.

The reason for the poor performance was entirely due to the ghosts in the rear. For example, in the Battle of Changping between Qin and Zhao, Bai Qi left, but Zhao also had famous generals. However, in the end, not only did they change the generals in front of the battle, but the people sitting in the rear actually questioned their strategy in the front.

Shen Fei naturally gave full trust to Di Qing. Now he has counterattacked, and the so-called three kingdoms attack together is the same.

Under the Tiangang Five Thunders and Thunder Fire Bombs, the cavalry had no room to play at all, and they were completely live targets.

In such a good situation, in addition to some corrupt scholars saying that killing and wounding would harm the harmony of heaven, another group of forces also jumped out to say so, that is, the Buddhist sect, and people from several major temples headed by Xiangguo Temple jumped out.

"That's what you said about General Di Qing killing people wantonly on the front line." Shen Fei looked at the fat monk in front of him, his expression looked unusually calm.

"Ah."

When the fat monk was about to speak, his face suddenly twisted, and the whole person rolled three and a half times in the air before falling heavily.

"You." The fat monk with blood in his mouth got up from the ground and looked at Shen Fei in disbelief, as well as the green bamboo stick in his hand. He had thought a lot before coming here, but he never thought that before he could speak, the other party would directly attack.

"Come here, there is an assassin, he is an assassin from the Jin Kingdom, intending to assassinate the emperor." After several imperial guards rushed in, Shen Fei immediately pointed at the fat monk and said.

"You."

The fat monk's face changed all of a sudden. He was able to talk to Shen Fei as a representative, and he was also an extremely smart person. He understood the sinister intentions of Shen Fei's words in an instant, but even if he understood, he couldn't break the situation. Shen Fei's attitude had already explained everything.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? How was the talk?" The fat monk covered in blood had just returned to the temple when a group of fellow apprentices came up to him.

"Brother, it's over, it's all over."

Boom.

The fat monk was about to speak out the situation, but at this moment, with a loud bang, the door was directly broken open, and a group of imperial guards appeared in front of everyone.

"How dare you harbor the assassin who assassinated the emperor? Capture them all, and kill those who resist."

"It's unfair, it's unfair."

"You are so cruel."

Facing the attack of the imperial guards, some people cried out for injustice, and some people saw that it was a conspiracy, but it could only stop there, because Shen Fei would not show mercy this time.

Now that we have finally resisted, you come out and say that there is too much killing and it is against the harmony of nature. Why didn't these guys come out when the Jin soldiers burned and looted?

"You are so cruel." As time passed, the fighting gradually stopped, and the imperial guards began to search everywhere to see if there were any remnants.

"Thank you for coming out at this time, otherwise I would have to find a time to let that person be assassinated. Now it is much easier."

"You."

After hearing Shen Fei's words, the fat monk, who was already seriously injured, couldn't help but spit out a large pool of blood. He originally thought that Shen Fei was just framing them, but he didn't expect that the other party had a deeper purpose.

And then, what kind of situation will the Buddhist sect, which bears the crime of assassinating the king, face? It is conceivable.

"I was so angry that I died. This is really true. I wanted to let you see more of my methods." Shen Fei has accumulated a lot of experience in dealing with the Buddhist sect in the Tang Dynasty.

The first thing is to announce your property. Knowing how much wealth you have is completely different from actually displaying these wealth.

"Surrender, not accepted."

The continuous retreat on the front battlefield finally made the Jin Kingdom realize the reality and prepare to surrender, but unfortunately, Shen Fei would not accept his surrender, and their only result could only be the destruction of the country.

"Han and Tang Dynasty, let's change it to Tang."

Of course, these are just plans. To achieve this level, at least decades of effort are needed. After all, universal education and population cannot be achieved quickly.

"I'll leave this to you first. I'll come over when I'm free."

Looking at Wuqing in his arms, Shen Fei explained some things. As this side is on the right track, it only needs to develop slowly. With Wuqing watching, it is enough for him to come over frequently.

The time spent together has allowed the two to take that step.

"I'm in a good mood today, it's your bad luck."

On a pirate ship in the waters near Wano Country, W threw out several potato mines and completely destroyed the pirate ship himself.

Even with the power of the Explosion Fruit, W still likes to use potato mines. This is a habit she developed a long time ago. Potatoes have been W's staple food for a long time, so W can make a variety of different flavors of food with potatoes. It is also because of this that she occasionally thinks of using potatoes to hide mines when cooking together.

Not to mention, relying on this trick, W has tricked many people.

"Do you want to add that I am in a bad mood, it's bad luck for you." Whether W is in a good mood or not, it's bad luck to meet her.

"You are back."

"You are on patrol."

After the founding of Wano Country, a large number of foreign personnel arrived, which naturally attracted many pirates. Even with Kaido here, there are still some who are not afraid of death, and more importantly, many of them are not very strong.

"I'm free anyway, by the way, do me a favor." W immediately stated her request.

"Name, let Theresa give you one."

W is not her name, but a code name, the code name of the former captain of the mercenary group where Hedley is. W picked up his weapon, so he inherited his code name.

As for her real name, W, who was an orphan since childhood and survived by wandering around, never thought about it. It was only when she met Theresa that she would not care about the name at all.

ps: Qidian has some strict rules recently. You can't write anything. It's easy to be blocked.

By the way, can anyone help me think of a good name for W? I've found some, but I'm not satisfied.
