C544 order

The thirty mules were lined up in a row. On top of each one was a randomly woven wicker basket covered with thick, withered grass. Inside the basket, however, there were thirty whole baskets of gold bars. This was used to purchase a batch of high-quality weapons. Ye Lvdayong watched from afar as he spent all his money like flowing water. He had already used quite a few of the treasures his ancestor had left behind, and it was not even the time of war yet. He frowned deeply, only to see a tall figure hurrying over from the distance. The deer cutter was horizontally across his waist, and the sheath of the sword seemed to be dripping with cold dew from the valley.

He laughed strangely. "Good son-in-law, you're late."

King Qin was unhurried: "It's just right for me. It will take a few more days for the buyer that I contacted to come out."

"Still in the process of being refined?"

King Qin waved his hands: "They are all living things, to be able to get the order, laozi has already expended a lot of effort, what else do you want?"

"Alright, King Qin, you have worked hard.

"This old man does not dare to accept credit. Old ghost, as long as you aren't sneaking around behind my back, it's fine. "

"When will this batch of swords and spears be ready?"

"About half a month."

"You still need that much time?" Can you hurry it up? "

"No way. The quantity is too big. Furthermore, Old ghost, as you know, even though you took the risk of being beheaded by Golden Man, they might not be willing to pay such a high price. "

"Then when will you be able to catch up with the rest of the army?"

King Qin laughed: "Don't worry, this daddy doesn't want you to stay in the army. Just keep your three thousand men behind you and this daddy will catch up with you."

Ye Lvdayong was worried about the army that King Qin had requested to stay, and upon hearing that he did not want anymore people, he immediately sent out his no-name army of three thousand barbarians. He was naturally relieved, but he was still worried. King Qin looked at his eyes that were shaped like snakes and scorpions. He was sure that they were even more terrifying than the venom of venomous snakes. He casually said, "Old ghost, Qin Gui has reached the border. If you don't leave now, you might not be able to anymore …"

Ye Lvdayong's voice trembled with excitement: "Could it be true? Was the Fourth Prince really going to support Song Qinzong? If there is a chaotic battle between the north and south of Song Kingdom, or a chaotic battle between Song Jin, wouldn't that be … "

"Yes." You can fish in the water. "However, you should now avoid them and conceal your strength. Otherwise, don't even mention fishing, you won't even be able to catch a single prawn."

Ye Lvdayong's eyes lit up: Alright, King Qin, you bring your weapon and catch up. This old man will immediately begin to make preparations.

The chance had come, he knew the importance of having a good general to support him, the time had come for the King Qin to play its role.

Ye Lvdayong, who was dreaming with the emperor, finally led his army and left. King Qin looked at the empty valley.

Liu Wu stood by his side and sighed emotionally: "Great King, do we really have the chance and strength to contend against the entire world?"

Who knows? Besides, he didn't care. The King Qin did not care at all. "This might be an opportunity for the Old ghost Jeru. If it really succeeds, you guys can also take it too. "

At first, it was completely because of Ye Lvdayong's orders. However, as time went by, it was the expectation of a soldier to succeed. He looked at the troop of barbarians and suddenly had the illusion that these barbarians were standing in a formation. Previously, it was not like that. It was tilting all over the place without any pattern. But when Ye Lvdayong left, the troop immediately became upright, like a well-trained elite.

"Great King, when are we leaving to receive our weapons?"

"It's still early, what's the rush?"

"So, what should we do?"

King Qin laughed: "Soldier training."

"Huh?"

Liu Wu was shocked to find that the smile on King Qin's face carried a calmness that he had never seen before. It was definitely not like the tyrannical leader of the Pirates' King back in the day, but more like the calmness and stability of a true warrior general. This was something that he himself, including even Ye Lvlongxu who was known to be capable of fighting, had never realized.

"Great King, what is this?"

"I am practicing a new type of formation. Liu Wu, help me move the formation."

Liu Wu was stunned. How could the King Qin understand formations?

King Qin ignored his surprise, as he already memorized the few thin sheets of paper in his arms. That was all the painstaking work that Yue Pengju had done before he died. It had condensed the intelligence and military strategy of this genius general. He had seen with his own eyes how he commanded a great battle in the Imperial Court. He had never been willing to admit to anyone that he had that kind of lightweight attitude, but he admired it from the bottom of his heart. Because of this, his comprehension was exceptionally easy. It was as if there was heaven's will that was guiding him, deeper and more understood than what Hua Rong had written. It was far beyond the enlightenment brought by those few pages.

Liu Wu and the others naturally did not know that he had obtained Yue Pengju's military skills. They only faintly felt that "one must have a whole new level of respect for a warrior", that after not seeing the King Qin for a while, especially after Da She's tribe suffered a destructive attack, he had felt that the King Qin had completely changed. Ambitious or even more ruthless, in short, he was more passionate than ever about military power, and feverishly absorbed in an unprecedented operation — all his energy was focused on the army.

He subconsciously asked, "Your Majesty, we only have 3000 soldiers, right now Golden Army is running amok, to send this batch of weapons, I'm afraid …"

"So what if you have three thousand? Have you never heard of the Three Thousand Steel Armor that can swallow Wu, and the Hundred Qin Mountain Pass is Chu?! "

Liu Wu was completely dumbfounded.

Shan Xian Cun.

This was Song Jin's intersection. Although it was called crossing borders, it was actually completely controlled by the Golden Army. This place was shaded by trees and the mountains were dangerous. There was only one road leading down the mountain, and it was easy to defend, but hard to attack. Thus, it was not easy to be noticed by outsiders. In order to keep this a secret, they even moved the surrounding villagers to the swamps. The villagers did not dare to say anything, so they moved to the outer regions to cultivate. At that time, the land was divided into "familiar" and "birthplace", which were barren wastelands, and the villagers thought that it was the Golden Army's bullying, which was why they were even more angry. In fact, of course there were Jinguo who discriminated against the Chinese, but most importantly, there was no such thing. There was a secret hidden here — this was the only way for Liao Song to "exchange blows". Fighting was not a war, but an agreement that Zhao Deji had reached with the Jinguo since he had ascended the throne. One of them was to pay tribute to the Jinguo every year, to have 250 thousand silver silks each. For fear of arousing greed or robbery, all the armed forces within a hundred miles of Shan Xian Cun were completely exterminated. It was a very safe passage for tribute. During the years since Zhao Deji ascended the throne, he had paid tribute and the Golden Army had never failed once.

250 thousand silvers was not considered an astronomical amount during the prosperity of the Northern Song, but ever since Zhao Deji had settled down, a rich generation of Ming Yue Yang had been robbed by the Golden Army. They were unable to recover in a short period of time, thus, just relying on the tax collected in Jiangnan alone, not only did he have to support a few large armies, he also had to pay the 250 thousand silvers and silk cloth cloth cloth was an astronomical amount. But what made the Golden Army satisfied was that Zhao Deji had never objected to this. Especially regarding the quality of the silk, it was the highest quality silk from Sichuan and other places, even Zhao Deji himself did not want to use it.

Every year's tribute will be delivered at the turn of spring and summer, called "Spring Silver". But this year, because Qin Gui was outside of open seal, it was slightly delayed. Qin Gui knew clearly that the goal of the Jinguo was to help Song Qinzong and Zhao Deji to fight against each other, but no matter how shrewd and scheming he was, he had long been scared to death by the Golden Army. Furthermore, he had not openly broke all ties with the Fourth Prince, so he did not dare to risk detaining the silver.

The Shan Xian Cun had a special Golden Army to take care of them, so they were escorted back to the Shang Jing. This year, because of the matter of relocating to the capital, the imperial court decided to send two taels of silver to the Yanjing. The original palace size of the Liaoning was naturally far better than that of the Shang Jing, but after moving to the capital, she naturally wanted to have a magnificent atmosphere. He had long envied the son of the Han family and hoped that the Yanjing could be made into the same magnificent palace of the open seal.

The people who came to support the silver were ten thousand elite soldiers led by the King Longhu. As for the escort of the silver taels, it was from Qin Gui's faction, the Featherfield Sect. In order to guard against accidents, Qin Gui asked him to lead 20 thousand troops to escort them back this time. He was afraid that if something were to happen, not only would he treat Zhao Deji the right, but if it were to go out, he would also encounter suspicion from the Fourth Prince. Although he was burning with power, he was completely reliant on Song Jin's protection of the "Lifelong Prime Minister". Otherwise, according to Zhao Deji's usual practice of moving across the river, he would have been deported long ago. And because of this, even though he was surprised at Wang Junhua's death, he could not get the exact information. He did not dare to have any doubts about the Fourth Prince either, and only took it step by step.

It was a cloudy day, and the two armies met in Shan Xian Cun. King Longhu was still somewhat polite to the tribute troops who were escorting them. In front of the white and flowery silver, he could not care less about prestige, he ordered others to take a look and said, "General Tian, thank you for your hard work." It was the first time that Tian Shi had received such favor from the Golden Man. He was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor.

The King Longhu asked casually: "Where is Prime Minister Qin currently stationed at?"

Tian Shi laughed sinisterly, "To be honest, I have to wait for Fourth Prince's orders."

"Ha, go back and tell Prime Minister Qin that Fourth Prince has something to discuss with him."

"My family will definitely tell me."

After King Longhu finished counting the contribution points, he waved his hand. The mule horses loaded with large amounts of huge materials started to head towards Jinguo.

The King Longhu follows Jin Wushu's orders. As long as one passes the Shan Xian Cun, aside from the marshland, there will be also a great road leading to the Yanjing. With the Fourth Prince's army supporting them, there will be no problem at all. Moreover, nothing had ever happened around here, so there was no need to worry. He looked at the silver taels with great pride. He chatted with the several captains around him in a complacent manner, each of them eating and drinking from a wineskin and beef they carried with them.

Passing Shan Xian Cun was a very smooth journey. If they continued, they would reach the marshland. This swamp was not a dead swamp, but rather a swamp. Although it was not a deadly trap, it was still very muddy and could sink in half without being able to move quickly.

One of the Captains suddenly felt that something was amiss and hastily said to King Longhu: "Someone seems to be coming."
