Chapter 326: Chaos in Jing and Yu, Zhou Rong Recruits
"He changed his mind."
"I know."
"Then should we tell the third elder?"
"Are you crazy? The three elders and them are all in Yuzhou. What did you want to do there? Just for this?"
"What should we do? Are we going to hinder Zhou Rong?"
"No need. Now that we, the Three Elders' Association, are at war with Shuilu Pavilion and Digrotto, isn't it appropriate to conduct a war in this world? What's more, Shuilu Pavilion is the territory of my Three Elders' Association, and now we are just trying to get back the lost territory."
"Are you sure you won't be blamed by Mr. Zhan for making decisions without authorization?"
"Haha, you have to make a decision. Sometimes, you have to be bold."
"Okay, then I'll listen to you."
The two figures exuded a faint chill.
…
Under the leadership of Zhou Rong, the Nu Tao Army launched an attack on Jingzhou.
At this time, Jingzhou was mired in natural and man-made disasters. Faced with the powerful Raging Wave Army that came to attack, except for a few county towns, most of the county towns surrendered directly!
As a result, the entire Nutting Wave Army attacked the city and cut down the land, as if entering uninhabited territory, and directly captured one-third of Wuling County. The entire Jingzhou only had five counties. With the attack, the Raging Wave Army directly attacked the county seat of Wuling County. Wuling City!
Zhou Rong's face was solemn. The county was tall and there were people with strong internal organs. This was going to be a fierce battle.
It is reported that Wuling County has a total of three major forces, one of which is the county guard in front of them, which is the state of the internal organs.
The other two major forces also have viscera realms.
However, no matter what, he will capture Wuling County!
With Wu Ling, even if he establishes a foothold in Jingzhou, he can advance and retreat freely.
Moreover, he has a strong military force and the superior number of strong people in the internal organs. This is a war that is destined to win. The only difference is the size of the loss.
But just when Zhou Rong was giving orders and preparing for a big battle.
Crunch.
The huge city gate was slowly pushed open.
An old man with a bright head led a group of people out.
"The governor of Wuling County, Wang Cheng'en, is willing to surrender with all the people in the city. I only hope that the general will help the victims and not massacre them."
? ? ?
It turns out that Wuling County is not strong in martial arts and is more of a place for literati. Due to natural and man-made disasters, many common people and wealthy families have fled to other states and counties in Xia Kingdom. The only ones left are those who can barely support themselves. That’s all.
There is a shortage of food, weak military equipment, no reinforcements, and no hope at all.
Not everyone wants to do their best for Xia Kingdom.
so.
A great war ended dramatically.
Zhou Rong strangely took over Wuling and occupied Wuling. Unfortunately, the other two major clans had already run away, and he only received one person in the Zangfu realm.
This scene even surprised the two emissaries of the Three Elders Association who were left behind.
"It seems that Jingzhou is very weak."
"Haha, this is a force that was separated from Yuezhou. No matter how strong it can be, if we weren't afraid of the God of Creation, we would have taken Jingzhou back long ago..."
"Indeed, there are very few fresh and powerful blood foods in Wuling. Unlike Yuezhou, there are several viscera-level blood foods in one county."
"..."
…
Just when Zhou Rong's power was expanding rapidly, Zhong Liming was speaking to Chen on behalf of Zhou Rong.
In a quiet little building.
Chen Deng drank tea calmly, and his behavior was quite Chen Nuo.
On the opposite side, the general Zhong Liming actually knew how to taste tea, and he sipped it carefully.
a long time.
"Your Excellency?"
Chen Deng chuckled lightly, "I am Chen Deng, the magistrate of Tianhe County, and our two families are related by marriage..."
"oh?"
"Chen Yong is my brother."
Zhong Liming raised his eyebrows slightly.
Subsequently.
However, the two of them quickly got into a rhythm.
"My general has now led his troops to attack Jingzhou. You must know this."
"We, the Chen clan, are peace-loving. It was a helpless move to deal with King Cheng before. Who allowed him to suppress our clan rudely?"
"We don't want to conflict with the Chen family, but..."
"We don't want to cause trouble, but our caravans in Ouyue and Juyan County..."
"In this way, my general is very sincere. Since there is no conflict, why not reach cooperation?"
"..."
"..."
The two talked deeply for a long time.
We talked about it until the night ended.
Looking at Zhong Liming returning to the inn, Chen Deng looked thoughtful, and then looked at the letter in his hand.
Zhou Rong didn't want to have a conflict with the Chen family. The reason should be because of Jingzhou.
In this regard, Zhou Rong seems to be able to make some concessions.
In this regard, Zhou Rong's conditions are also very clear. The Chen family can no longer expand, nor can they attack the territory of the Nutting Waves Army. They must even nominally surrender to the Nutting Waves Army and provide certain help. As a price, the Nutting Waves Army can recognize the Chen family. Under the rule of Hexia County, and within the sphere of influence of the Raging Wave Army, the Chen family can do business at will, and can sell even restricted items such as salt, iron, horse tea, etc.
Wait, there are a lot of discounts given.
Of course, this is the final clause. If you are not willing to surrender in name, then you can simply be a collaborator. However, in this case, some of the conditions will no longer exist.
It can be said that there are two options for Chen to choose.
Chen Deng had a hard time choosing.
When it comes to the family's external strategy, he does not have the power to act arbitrarily. Only Chen Nuo in the entire family has such power.
But before Chen Nuo went into seclusion, he gave Chen Deng the power to convene a family meeting to determine family affairs.
So.
Chen Deng clapped his hands, and his close servant came over immediately, "Go and inform..."
Then, he stood up and walked towards home. His old father was also a member of the senior management. He was his biological father, so he had to go and invite him in person.
There were also two wives, and he had to invite them.
The matter was urgent, and it was only dark a short time ago, so Chen Deng chose to hold a meeting overnight.
Not long after.
Family meeting hall.
The lights flickered, and rows of chairs were placed.
One by one, the senior management appeared here. Today, because the family size is expanding, the number of senior management has also increased a lot.
In addition to Chen Li, Chen Xiang, Chen Xiao and others, Chen Feng, Chen Lin and others also stood out.
The first seat was vacant.
Chen Deng consciously sat in the second seat.
Everyone found a chair to sit down according to their status.
Ning Hongye and Wang Qingxuan also appeared, and the two women sat on both sides of the first seat.
At this point, all the family leaders, except those who were away, were present.
The meeting officially began.
"My elders, brothers, and the clan leader are in seclusion, and I am in charge of all matters. I called you all here because there are important matters concerning the entire clan that need to be decided."
"I cannot make the decision alone, so I called this meeting."
"..."
Chen Deng spoke politely and courteously.
Chen Li and others listened quietly.
Everyone was familiar with Chen Deng.
