Late March.

Chaos is obvious in various places in Liyang.

The current emperor's uncle, Prince Langya, was detained in the capital and executed. This move caused an uproar. Three vassal kings rose up together, proclaimed themselves emperors, and said in unison that there was something fishy about the previous emperor's succession to the throne.

Eastern Wu, Northern Han, and Western Liang each established their own kingdoms, and local aristocratic families and powerful men fell one after another.

At the same time, King Ji returned to Jizhou.

……

Dazhan City in the southern part of Jizhou.

Since he was crowned king, the military and political center was moved from Hengshui City on the border to the hinterland in an attempt to strengthen control over various places.

Opposite the palace is still Pei Street.

Old man Pei avoided his half-daughter, but gave her a house next to the palace as a gift, with a complicated attitude.

In the palace compound, all the military and political leaders of the state gathered.

The cavalry commander was Zu Kai, the deputy commander was Lao Jibei, and they had 40,000 cavalry.

The infantry commander is Li Huoli, the deputy commander is Duyan, and there are 40,000 of them.

The commander of the Huichu Army was Ning Shijian, with 7,000 infantrymen.

The governor of the state was He He, and the royal staff member was Guo Si.

The local garrison commander-in-chief, deputy mountain master, and ten thousand infantry and cavalry.

The manager of Tanyingxuan is Liu Sancai.

The eight main subordinates are all veterans. Among them, Liu Sancai took the initiative to join them after the New Year, and they have already had basic coordination with each other.

Jiang Yuan sat in the main seat and listened to the report.

"...First of all, due to the unrest in Jiangnan, the imperial court has cut off its grain supply, so the military rations in Jizhou can only last until the beginning of next spring. With 900,000 households in one state, it is not enough to support an army of 100,000."

After saying this, the governor He He sat down. As the prince was promoted step by step, they, the followers, also gained a lot of benefits, especially Zu Kai who was stationed at the border. After fighting a few small-scale cavalry battles, he even got the title of Siping General.

Zu Kai stood up and reported, "The Northern Mang General Chen Yinzan and the Orange State General Murong Baoding have joined forces. 60,000 White Feather Light Cavalry and 140,000 Infantry have deployed their troops in the Hongxiang City area. There are currently no signs of an active attack. We have 50,000 troops stationed in Hengshui City. In Yinyao City, Wei Jingtang's 40,000 Fenwu Army has taken the initiative to cut off contact with the court. It should be because of the death of his mentor Zhang Julu that he was dissatisfied."

"There are 100,000 cavalrymen from Liao who went south. Half of them stayed in the camp in the capital, and the other half went to Jiangnan. Gu Jiantang's daughter will soon become the new queen of Liyang. The Prince of Jiaodong is leading an army of 140,000 soldiers to confront the two generals of Beimang on the border between Liao and Liao."

At the long meeting table, a crow first brought a box to someone, and then informed everyone about the situation in each place.

"The King of Western Liang, the Fifth Prince, has a tendency to form an alliance with Western Chu. The court has recently obtained 50,000 elite cavalry from the border army and is preparing to send troops to attack the King of Eastern Wu. There is a deep hatred between the Second Prince and the new emperor. As for the Northern Liang, the border has been lost and the battle situation is not optimistic. 600,000 troops have already arrived in Gusaizhou and Longyaozhou. Previously, the King of Northern Liang sent his adopted son Chu Lushan to take back Hutou City, but was blocked by Helian Jiang."

At the long table, Guo Si pondered for a while and said, "Your Highness, it seems that Beimang is determined to fight Beiliang to the death. South of the Yangtze River, Xichu, Nantang and Gu Jiantang are fighting like tigers. The capital has a conservative estimate of 200,000 troops. In my opinion, we should first suppress the King of Beihan under the banner of loyalty to the new emperor. He is in Xiongzhou, which is close to us. If we swallow Xiongzhou, we will have enough fertile land. Mingzhu Mountain in the west will resist Beiliang, Wushan Mountain in the east will reach the capital, and Xiongnan Pass will watch the south of the Yangtze River. In this way, our great cause can be accomplished."

As soon as the words "great cause can be accomplished" were uttered, the yard suddenly fell silent. In the past few years, the world was generally a prosperous era with singing and dancing, but unexpectedly, it suddenly turned into a chaotic era with many kings rising up.

"Attack Northern Han first, and then serve the king." Jiang Yuan said.

Everyone was confused. Guo Si said in disbelief, "Your Highness, you mean that the imperial court might be defeated by the King of Dongwu? That's Gu Jiantang's 50,000 cavalrymen."

"I think so." Jiang Yuan said perfunctorily. After the meeting, Zu Kai headed north again and returned to Hengshui City, where there were 50,000 Jizhou troops and 2,000 Huichu troops.

Old Jibei is now a general of the fourth rank. He goes out to the military camp and personally selects 8,000 elite cavalry. The mounts of these cavalry are all first-class war horses captured from Beimang before, and their iron armor is also excellent.

Jiang Yuan rode alone into the wilderness and practiced the Baiyujing secret technique. A Wudi City suddenly appeared before his eyes. One of the city walls was affected by the fighting among the warriors at that time, causing it to collapse completely.

The length and width of Emperor Wu's city are both nine miles, and the height of the city is twenty feet.

The crow brought a brocade bag with thirty-three gold and copper coins in it. It had sent people to search the entire state to find this little bit, and this was despite the fact that no one had ever collected them in history, otherwise ten coins would have been a problem.

Jiang Yuan took out three lucky coins. These things were very valuable. One part came from the broken golden body of the mountain and water gods, and the other part came from the incense and power of the people.

In Haoran World, the currency system is:
1000 taels of silver = 1 snowflake coin.

1000 Snowflake coins = 10 Minor Heat coins = 1 Grain Rain coin.

Snowflake Money, Lesser Heat Money and Grain Rain Money are all rich in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and are called fairy money. They are widely used and indispensable.

One gold-refined copper coin is approximately equal to 1-7 Grain Rain coins. The method of making this special coin is not widely circulated and is limited to the Dali Dynasty in the upper realm. It is very likely that it was originally only in the hands of that national teacher.

How do the immortals on the mountain nourish their magic weapons? It's nothing more than spending money. They keep spending money to improve the quality until they reach the limit of the material of the magic weapon itself.

Jiang Yuan sent out three gold-refined copper coins, and this special coin immediately turned into white light and fell.

The walls of Emperor Wu City rose from the ground, extending to a hundred miles in length and width. The city was a hundred feet high and as majestic as a mountain, far surpassing the previous number one city in the world, Xiangyang City.

At the same time, Jiuding Tower merged with Wudi City and was located in the center. Jiang Yuan smashed down another gold-essence copper coin again, and the height of Jiuding Tower reached 150 feet.

“It really costs money.”

This investment is based on the secret technique of Baiyujing, and the cost is still not light. If the city is truly built on flat ground, the demand for immortal money will increase exponentially.

Jiang Yuan opened the wooden box, and twelve miniature swords flew out. These flying swords were properly refined and originally belonged to Deng Tai'a, the Peach Blossom Sword God. But that guy was targeted by Cui Nan, and it was estimated that he was either dead or living a life worse than death. The tempers of the literary saints in the world are not very good.

Black armor, childhood sweetheart, childhood sweetheart, morning dew, spring water, peach blossom, eyebrow, red bird, flavonoids, ant, golden thread, and Tai'a flew into the Jiuding Tower one by one and merged with the talisman formation.

Jiang Yuan simply threw five more gold-essence copper coins, transforming the Nine Tripod Tower and the Twelve Flying Swords into a whole, elevating it to the level of a magic weapon.

This refining was equivalent to investing dozens of Grain Rain coins. The attic itself represented a holy place for martial arts in the world, and the flying sword came from the careful feeding of a master of swordsmanship. Although it was only a low-grade magic weapon, its power was destined to be extraordinary.

"How is it?" asked the crow curiously.

"If three or four flying swords come out, it should be enough to kill you." Jiang Yuan estimated. These flying swords are not his natal flying swords and do not have magical powers, but they are still sharp and tough.

"Why do you always want to kill me?" The crow said helplessly.

"Because you are almost a floor tile in the Celestial Realm."

Old Man Pei: “…”

Okay, okay (palms)
