Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 433 Purple Ceka [Wu King Six Swords]

The huge turntable continued to rotate, and all kinds of light flowed on it one by one. After a while, it slowly stopped.

Gorgeous purple radiance filled the sight, and finally the purple radiance suddenly converged and turned into a card.

【Purple Ceka, Six Swords of King Wu
Card effect: After using it, you will get the Six Swords of the King of Wu.The quality of the weapons forged by the divine machine increases, and the probability of obtaining weapon treasures increases by 5%.

Card description: Sun Quan, Emperor Wu of the Three Kingdoms, picked copper and iron from Wuchang to make a thousand swords and ten thousand knives.There are six sword handles, one is called "White Rainbow", the second is called "Purple Electricity", the third is called "Dispelling Evil", the fourth is called "Meteor", the fifth is called "Qingming", and the sixth is called "Baili". 】

The purple radiance shattered, and the radiance flourished again. It rushed straight up, turned into six rays of light, and immediately fell to the ground suddenly.

The six precious swords were inserted quietly around Xiao Cheng.On the blade of the sword, there is a radiance that circulates by itself, or it is as bright as a white rainbow, or there seems to be purple lightning swimming on it, or there is a flash of green color...

A shimmering cold light emerged from the blades of the six swords, and the sharp sword energy revealed was as if it were real, piercing people's flesh so painfully that they dare not look directly at it.

Xiao Cheng casually took two long swords with his left and right hands, and held them across his chest to size them up.

In the line of sight that only he could see, above the two swords, a line of small characters appeared on each.

Xiao Cheng frowned, and continued to look at the remaining four swords.

The treasures of fourth-grade swords are extremely rare in the world. If any of these swords enter the rivers and lakes, it will attract many people in the rivers and lakes to compete for them.

But at this time, he was planted beside Xiao Cheng.

Xiao Cheng pulled out each handle, waved it casually, weighed it a few times, and then put it aside indifferently.

Swords are naturally good swords, and each has special skills with different functions.

But Xiao Cheng, who owns the fifth-grade treasures, the Raging Dragon Sword and the Dragon Shooting Bow, naturally has no shortage of handy weapons.

So even though this is a purple strategy card, what is useful to Xiao Cheng is that the forged weapon can improve the quality of the card attached to it.At most, plus a special skill, the evil spirit sword that can prevent evil spells from being added to the body.

But, the Son of Heaven has the Nine Seals, so naturally he can also have the Six Swords!In the future, you can reward the courtiers for meritorious service, or you can go on tour outside the courtiers, and give them as the Emperor's Sword, which is much more suitable than Shangfang's sword!

Xiao Cheng raised his head slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"Feng Bao!"

Feng Bao, who was standing outside the door, heard Xiao Cheng's shout at this time, and hurriedly pushed open the palace door.As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw the six swords with their own uniqueness beside Xiao Cheng, and his brows twitched.

However, Feng Bao has been serving Xiao Cheng for a long time, and he knows that there are many miracles around his Majesty.Seeing that there was no abnormal expression on Xiao Cheng's face, Feng Bao immediately restrained his surprise, walked quickly to Xiao Cheng's side, bowed and saluted, and said:
"What's your majesty's order?"

Xiao Cheng pointed to the six swords beside him and said:
"Arrange craftsmen to measure to make the scabbard and sword frame."

"Yes."

Feng Bao hurriedly signaled his young eunuch to come in and remove the six swords.

But at this time, Xiao Cheng suddenly remembered something, turned to look at Feng Bao, and asked:
"By the way, have you ever handed over the regulations on rewards that I asked the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Households to draft together?"

The reason why Xiao Cheng chose Jiangzhou County as the destination of his parade was to come here to award meritorious soldiers.

When Feng Bao heard this, he hurriedly said:

"The paper that was originally drafted was handed over this morning, and it is on the case of His Majesty."

Xiao Cheng heard the words, nodded slightly, and said:
"Find it out, I'll take a look."

Hearing this, Feng Bao hurriedly walked to the imperial case beside him, and found the memorial from the table full of memorials.

Xiao Cheng opened the memorial, and the materials needed for the army's reward, as well as the names of all the meritorious soldiers, were all listed on it.

Among all the meritorious officers and men, the one who ranked first was General Zhengbei who didn't know Cheng Cheng.After that, there was General Di Qing who was a martial artist.Wu Zixu, who was so powerful in the previous battle in Rongzhou City, only ranked third this time.Yang Dayan, General Anton, and Zheng He, who commanded the navy of Buri Prefecture and achieved the victory in Leizhou, were in the last place.

In addition, there are some names that Xiao Cheng is familiar with in the list.

Such as capturing Yangping Pass, besieging the Xia Army in Jiangyang County, and capturing alive Zhao Yun and Yang Zaixing, the commander of the Xia Army along the way, Qiu Tianlu.Riding alone to the camp, Jiang Wei rushed to the aid of Jianzhou Pass at a critical moment.There is also Zhuge Liang who led his troops to stick to Jianzhou Pass and transferred to other places to maintain the operation of the army's food and grass.

Xiao Cheng read through the memorial carefully, pondered for a while, and said:

"There is a problem with the rewards of the generals, we have to change it!"

Feng Bao was taken aback for a moment, and said with some uncertainty:
"What does His Majesty mean?"

"The general who conquered the North did not know Cheng. He was granted the title of Marquis of Kaiyuan, moved to the general of Wei, and was changed to be the governor of the Chinese army's governor's office. He also took charge of the capital camp and guarded the capital."

Today's Cheng Bushi, among the frontline generals, has been reduced to a second-rate ability.However, with his rigorous temperament, strict military management, and Xiao Cheng's status as a loyal minister, he is most suitable for shouldering the responsibility of defending the capital!
"General Di Qing of Wuxiang, Feng Yanshanbo, moved to Zhennan General, and the former governor of the army Zuo Dudu, led an army of [-], guarding the two counties of Anshun and Xiangzhou. General Yang Dayan of Andong, named Fu Anbo, moved to the town General Dong, who is also the governor of the post-military governor’s office Zuodudu, dispatched [-] troops to guard Shaoyang County. Zheng He was reappointed as an internal officer and eunuch, named Jing Hongzi, and also the commander of the navy, and led his troops to Leizhou.”

Feng Bao at this time, when he heard that His Majesty rewarded the courtiers, he didn't feel anything.Until he heard that Zheng He, who was also a eunuch, was also made a viscount because of his military exploits, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.

"Wu Zixu, Marquis of Qujing, moved to the Zuo Dudu of the Governor's Mansion of the Right Army, and led an army of 15 to garrison Jiangzhou County!"

Xiao Cheng's arrangement has not changed in terms of titles and rewards.However, in terms of the arrangement and scheduling of military positions, almost all the regulations handed over by the Ministry of War were rejected.

But in fact, after thinking about it carefully, I found that Xiao Cheng didn't make this decision in a flash!
Among the frontline commanders, Cheng Bushi was the most stable, he was loyal to Xiao Cheng, and he was good at running the army and training soldiers.

Di Qing was good at attacking cavalry, used troops quickly, and was good at commanding infantry, so it was most suitable to arrange to garrison in Xiangzhou and Anshun counties.

Yang Dayan's personality is a bit reckless, but fortunately he listened to the advice of others, and Xu Shu was on the side to assist him, and Zheng He led the navy to assist him, so he could be a part of the army and restrain the Xia army soldiers in Rongjun and Yuzhang counties.

Wu Zixu, on the other hand, is good at water warfare. He led most of the soldiers and horses, stationed in Jiangzhou County, controlled the two armies on the water, and threatened the land in the south of the Yangtze River.
Feng Bao's intelligence and strategy are not low, but after careful consideration of his majesty's arrangement, he immediately understood Xiao Cheng's deep meaning, and quickly responded:

"Yes, the servants have written it down!"

Xiao Cheng nodded, and continued to ask:
"Where is Shen Wansan?"

"Because the supplies rewarded by the army were sent by Shen Daguan and gathered merchants to transport them, the water and land routes all need to be dispatched. Even if there are miscellaneous families to help, the speed of progress will not be fast... But according to the information sent back yesterday The news, if there is no delay, it will only take five days to reach Jiangzhou County." Feng Bao quickly replied.

To reward 30 troops, the required wine, meat, rice, cloth, etc. are huge, and it is really expensive to transport them from the court.

Anyway, it is not the supplies needed for the army to fight, it is not extremely urgent, and there is no delay.So Xiao Cheng asked Shen Wansan and Zajia to come forward, gather merchants from all over the country, and transport them here.At that time, the imperial court will allocate the bank notes, which can be said to save time and effort.

"Five more days?"

Xiao Cheng moved his eyes and asked again:
"What about Zhang Yi who went to Jinling City in Xia Kingdom?"

"Half a month ago, the news was sent back that Zhang Yi, the head of the court, threatened with words in the court hall of the Xia Dynasty, which made the Emperor Xia and all the officials of the Xia Dynasty deeply panicked, so they could only bow their heads and agree, and sent envoys to come to see him with the letter of credence. The mission will return and go upstream along the river to Jiangzhou City, and it should be arriving soon."

Although it felt a little humiliating to submit the truce credential voluntarily, it was not a credential to cede land and beg for peace.

Emperor Xia Yu Zhaoling had a straight temper, so he was unwilling to accept it.But Zhang Yi threatened to send troops to come again, so that Xia Guo's courtiers took the initiative to persuade Yu Zhaoling, and in the end he could only hold his nose and admit it, and sent a mission.

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng couldn't help showing a smile on his face, nodded and said:

"This instrument is quite interesting!"

Seeing Xiao Cheng's smile at this moment, Feng Bao couldn't help but say:

"Your Majesty, the Armistice Kingdom book is optional. Why do you insist on forcing Xia Guo to submit it voluntarily, Your Majesty?"

Xiao Cheng heard the words, chuckled lightly, and said:
"It is indeed a dispensable thing. If it is used well, it can still make some people completely give up on the Xia Kingdom court!"

Hearing this, Feng Bao blinked his eyes, revealing a thoughtful look.
-
At this time, outside the prison of the Jiangzhou City government.

A guard walked out of the cell, looked around a few times, and after making sure that no one was following him, he cautiously walked into the dark alley beside him.After a long time, the guard came out with his arms bulging and a happy face.

After a while, a middle-aged man dressed in Jianghu walked out of the dark alley with a normal expression, joined the crowd on the street, and wandered around the city of Jiangzhou for a long time before arriving at In a secret courtyard.

"It's been cleared up. The nephews of each family, as well as some rangers who participated in the assassination, were all imprisoned in the Yamen cell. The jailer who bribed said that except for those who resisted and were killed during the arrest, the rest were imprisoned. inside, was not killed, was not tortured."

In the courtyard, seven or eight elders and middle-aged people with deep and dignified breaths gathered here with serious expressions.

Hearing the words of the middle-aged man who went to investigate, one of the old men suddenly relaxed, let out a long sigh of relief, and said:

"My grandson was arrested... It's okay, it's okay, this Yunhuang should also be scruples about us Jiangzhou County Wulin people, so he spared our nephew's life."

"That's right, I'm afraid that even Emperor Yun himself felt that the killing was too much that day. He was afraid that the violent image would be known to the people and lose the hearts of the people of Jiangzhou County. You see, since he came to Jiangzhou City more than a month ago, , but has been giving grace to the people as a remedy.”

"If that's the case, we might be able to work things out to get the children and nephews out of each family, without breaking into the prison by force..."

The Wulin people in Jiangzhou County who were present at the scene, because their nephews were killed or arrested, they were all against the same enemy before, and they were determined to fight together. After trying their best to rescue their nephews, they set out to avenge the Emperor Yun and the court of the Kingdom of Yun .

But when some of them knew that their nephew was not dead, but imprisoned in a cell, they suddenly had strange thoughts.

Hearing these words, some of them turned pale.

Then I heard someone snort coldly, and said disdainfully:

"Hmph, the assassination on the Yuanjiang River more than a month ago has now spread all over the world. Two masters of the land gods and fairyland, more than a dozen elites of hundreds of schools, and nine-level masters were all slaughtered by Emperor Yun as pigs and dogs. Ask yourselves, this Emperor Yun is not afraid of offending even a hundred schools of thought, so is he still afraid of our Jiangzhou County Wulin?"

"Why do you care about the hearts of the people in Jiangzhou County? Those people are all vulgar and vulgar people who have no family and country. The Emperor Yun decreed that the land and acres of so many loyal people's homes should be confiscated and distributed to those who have no family. The troublesome people in the fields, the rumors among the people, suddenly changed."

"Exactly, besides that, Emperor Yun also put on a fake show, reassessed the tax reduction and exemption, built water conservancy, and set up academies, which deceived many ignorant people. Now no matter how many loyal people he kills, there are still people who stand against him. Come out and shout hello!"

These people, the so-called loyal people, are naturally those local gentry and wealthy people who have been found out and secretly colluded with Xia Guo.

"Emperor Yun doesn't kill the nephews of the family, I'm afraid he has other demands! Being threatened and coerced by him here, it's better to rescue them directly, and save yourself the infamy of betraying your family and country!"

"Yes, it makes sense!"

"That's the reason. Anyway, we are familiar with the prison guards. When the time comes, we will directly rescue the nephews of each family, and save ourselves from being threatened by Emperor Yun!"

Hearing this, there were a few people who were still hesitating in their hearts, but it was hard to continue talking at this time, so they could only nod their heads in agreement.
