How poor was the War God King, Feng Qingxiao?

Just like what Ouyang Baofeng had said, in order to support the Wind Chasing Army, he couldn't wait to sell himself out!

Even under the repeated suppression of the late emperor, the amount of money and resources required to support the two hundred thousand soldiers was still an astronomical figure!

There was no one who could support an army of two hundred thousand. Only the country could afford it.

In the end, Feng Qingxiao had no choice but to forcefully detain all of the taxes and money that the Northern Frontier had to hand over to the imperial government. Only then could he reluctantly support the Wind Chasing Army and alleviate some of the awkward situations. However, it was precisely this action that caused the late emperor to be so angry that his murderous intent rose to the extreme. He had been afraid that Feng Qingxiao's military might was too great, so he used the excuse of the northern border being at peace, a place where there was a natural disaster, and so on to order the northern borders to disarm.

In order to reduce the military strength of the northern border, the former emperor held the military power of the War God King. He even said that the treasury was empty as he repeatedly seized food and rations from the northern border.

In these two years, the imperial government had never given the Wind Chasing Army of the Northern Frontier a single silver tael, nor had it given them a single set of clothes or weapon!

Feng Qingxiao had even had the thought of selling off the capital's estate. Unfortunately, he knew that no one dared to buy it, so he could only give up. In order to amass enough money to feed the Wind Chasing Army, even Ouyang Baofeng couldn't wait to sell himself. He wanted to think of a way to go about this, and he wanted to put in a lot of effort. Originally, the tax revenue of the Northern Frontier was handed over to the imperial government and transported to the capital. These two years, it was all seized by the Northern Frontier and the imperial government no longer obtained any benefits from it.

Even so, it was not an easy task to feed the two hundred thousand soldiers of the Wind Chaser army. Previously, they had lost too much money and lost too much money.

If the main commander of the Wind Chasing Northern Army wasn't Feng Qingxiao, it would have turned into chaos a long time ago!

For this reason, Ouyang Baofeng had done many good things. For example, he had asked the Wind Chasing Army to disguise themselves as bandits and go to other places far away from the northern border to rob other prefectures of their goods. He had done this sort of thing many times, and he had kept it a secret from Feng Qingxiao. However, there was no wall that did not leak out any news. No matter how secretive and secretive it was, there was still some information that leaked out.

Especially this commander of the Nine Tailed Fox, he had his subordinates disguise as bandits more than once and robbed some of the officials that were flattering him, giving them to the previous empress dowager for her birthday present.

To dare to do such a thing in the Tianyuan Kingdom, he would disappear without a trace afterwards. His battle prowess, agility, and iron discipline were all amazing. The late emperor was not an idiot. Through some clues, how could he not know that these were all related to the north?

How could the previous emperor of the Tianyuan Kingdom tolerate her subjects doing something like this?

The contradictions grew deeper and deeper, and the relationship between the monarchs and officials became more and more rigid. The late emperor had been overly suspicious to begin with, but now he had decided to collude with the Barbarian King and destroy his own Great Wall.

"Sigh … You're amazing. So Feng Qingxiao was hurt by you."

Yun Zihuang was speechless. From this Nine-tailed Fox, she understood what it meant to act without fear, to be bold to the point of covering the sky.

Ouyang Baofeng was also a bit embarrassed. Up until now, he hadn't told Feng Qingxiao about this matter, and had confessed to him, "After some time, I'll explain this matter to the lord and ask for his forgiveness."

"Come on, do you think I'm an idiot? Or was it because Feng Qingxiao was an idiot? Even the late emperor was able to think of something related to the northern border, how could he not think of it? "

"Knowing is the same thing. I acted without thinking and deceived the Lord. It is a capital offense, so I will naturally explain myself."

She shrugged. "I won't take part in your brother's business, but your good brother shouldn't be poor anymore, right?"

The commander shrugged as well and said, "Poor, much poorer than before. In the past, our lord only needed to feed the two hundred thousand soldiers of the Wind Chaser Army. Now, he has to feed countless people in the Tianyuan Kingdom."

"Allow me to cry on your lap."

She rubbed his legs gloomily. "Isn't there any money in the treasury? Is the treasury really empty? "

"The emptiness in the treasury is real. As for how empty it is, I do not know. All I know is that all these years, the late emperor paid a huge price to support Ao Ri Ge and the northern region. "It's a pity that Ao Ziegler died too quickly, and many things haven't been revealed yet."

"Don't pretend, Oleg is dead. You don't know that I believe in these things. "Tell me, what tribute do you want the northern region to send over?"

Ouyang Baofeng smiled and said, "Talking to a clever monster like you is like sparing your mind. After eating so much Tianyuan, of course I have to make the northern region vomit twice as much."

"Do you know what I want the most?"

"What?"

"Open your head and see what's inside."

"Today, let's say ten years ago, when I led troops into the northern region …"

When he heard the princess mention opening his head, he immediately changed the topic and began to narrate the story of his brilliant military career and the fierce battle between him and the northern region. This sort of topic happened at least two or three times a day. Ouyang Baofeng and Yun Zihuang would tell stories at different times.

Looking at the beautiful figure of Yun Zihuang leaving, the great commander of the Nine-tailed Fox had a gaze that was a little sinister, yet also a little proud. It was mostly deep and serene. Humph, thirty-six?

Let's see if a little girl like you has anything good that I'll take out!

Walking out of Ouyang Baofeng's room, she lightly patted her head. "Why does it feel like I've been tricked by a fox?"

She had no idea that each day she took turns telling stories and analyzing military plans according to the facts, was a form of entertainment and relaxation, gossip and games for her. But to Ouyang Baofeng, the commander of the northern border, he had to dig out military secrets from her, and figure out the contents and mysteries of the thirty-six strategies.

Ouyang Baofeng would never directly ask what the thirty-six strategies were, nor would he ask for the details of the thirty-six strategies. However, in the midst of taking turns telling stories of battles, he had already obtained all the information he wanted from the monstrous princess.

"Thirty-six plans, thirty-six plans, Yun Zihuang, just who are you?"

He looked up at the sky.

How many treasures did the heavens bestow to Yun Zi Huang? And what kind of woman was given to Tian Yuan?

No one knew that the Great Commander of the Northern Frontier Tribe, who was supposed to be resting, was someone who could not rest. Even when he was healing himself, he did not display the talent of a Nine-tailed Fox.

There were no longer any needle marks on his legs. Other than the deep scars he had left on the battlefield, his legs, which were covered with needle marks, were completely undamaged. His emaciated legs were full once again. Although he was still very thin, he was no longer just a bag of bones. As he touched his legs, he gained new muscles and even felt a slight sensation.

"Can I really still stand up? Could he still be a real man? "If that's the case, then my lord, the princess, and Ouyang Baofeng will have to bow to their master until they die!"
