Overlord the sky

Chapter 230 VII The Difficult River

Zhao Chaofan seemed to be very familiar with this path, turning left and right without hesitation. 26nbsp;

Zheng Qian followed behind Zhao Chaofan, and he could still hear the cheers and sounds of heated discussions coming from the mountain.

Zheng Qian's impromptu impromptu speech was quite successful, at least the blood of those men had been inspired by him.As long as there is blood, as long as there is a spirit of resistance, Zheng Qian can organize them well.

Zheng Qian's mobilization work has been completed, and now what needs to be considered is how to raise combat readiness and military pay.

War depends on good weapons and good training.

These people have been mining here for too long. If they are dragged to the battlefield rashly, more than half of them will be frightened by the bloody scene, and they will lose before the battle. This result is what Zheng Qian wants to avoid.

Every person is a life, and every life is very valuable, Zheng Qian thinks so.He also knows that people will die in war, and many people will die, but with the same result, as few deaths as possible, as few deaths as possible.

Everyone is capital available for development, and no one can predict what benefits will be produced in the future.

Zheng Qian thought about his own thoughts all the way, and unknowingly walked to the edge of a river.

The river Zheng Qian and the princess in "A Cave of Heaven" also saw it once on the tor rock above the cliff.But at that time, because of the height of the station, these rivers were as thin as ribbons in their eyes. Now when they walked to the edge of the river, they realized that the width of these rivers was actually so amazing.

In the river, there were already a few boats floating on it, swinging leisurely.

"Old Zhao, this is?" Zheng Qian didn't understand where Chaofan got the boat.

"Brother, you may not know that these ships were prepared by the brothers of Fulan City a long time ago. They have always planned to escape, but the Sky Meteor Group watched closely, and they never found a chance. These ships It was caused by them secretly. A lot of effort wasted."

"Under such an environment, it is not easy for the brothers in Fulan City to manufacture such a large ship." Zheng Qian had already thought in his heart that it was very likely that Xiao Shan did it.

"That's right. Their leader is Xiao Shan, a third-level overlord. Although his level is not too high, he is righteous and comes from a famous family. The prestige among the brothers in Fulan City is very high." Zhao Chaofan didn't seem to be idle during the time he was waiting for Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian nodded, "Is he coming here later?" Zheng Qian asked, "If he gets on the boat, you let him come to me."

"Don't worry, big brother, he has long thought of coming to visit big brother." Zhao Chaofan laughed.He was worrying about not being able to complete the important task entrusted to him by Xiao Shan.

After getting on the big boat, Zheng Qian felt that the craftsmanship of these boats is very good.The big boats used for evacuation are built so well. If he is given some time, it is possible to build some large boats that can go to sea.

Zhao Chaofan led Zheng Qian and the princess to a room in the cabin, he closed the door with his hand, and bowed to retreat.

Zheng Qian put Bai Ling on the bed in the room, and then went to see the tiger girl on the princess's back. She still looked like she was sleeping in a sweet dreamland.

The princess put Huniu on the same bed.

There are a total of five beds in this room, which is the largest room on this ship.This is specially prepared for Zheng Qian and the others.

"It's hard to think that Lao Zhao's rough personality can be so detailed." Zheng Qian sat by Hu Niu's bed and reached out to touch Hu Niu's face.

"Zheng Qian, I'm still very worried. You decide to fight against the imperial capital so rashly. It's hard to win." The princess has always been worried about Zheng Qian's rebellion against the imperial capital. It was a temporary idea, which made the princess feel uneasy.

"You don't have to worry about these things. During the war, you only need to do one thing." Zheng Qian looked at the princess solemnly.

"What's the matter? You mean take care of them?"

"Well. This time, you must protect them well, and you can't make any mistakes again."

When Zheng Qian said this, the solemn expression on his face made the princess feel guilty for a while.But if you think about it carefully, you can't blame the princess for these things. Compared with the envoy of the imperial capital, the princess is too weak.

"Okay. Even if I do my best, I will protect them well." The princess is a responsible person. Since Zheng Qian can entrust the second daughter to her to take care of her again, it shows that Zheng Qian still trusts her very much.Thinking of this level, the princess was already a little moved.

"Don't be desperate. What happened last time will never happen again. The current Winterfell is my city, and no one can act wild in my city!"

"Your city?" The princess widened her eyes.

Winterfell is the Duan family's city, the royal family's city, when did it become Zheng Qian's city?

"Don't be surprised. The current Winterfell is my city. I have an obligation to protect it from any infringement. Whoever wants to touch my city must have long enough claws and enough blood." Zheng Qian Yin Forest said.

The princess knew that Zheng Qian would not say these words for no reason.But no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't figure out why Winterfell already belonged to Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian forgave the queen and let her sit back on the queen's throne, just out of the idea of ​​having her own base.Only when he has a firm foothold and has his own city, can he have the capital to fight against the imperial capital and the snake clan.

"Okay. I don't need these things anymore. Since you said so, you must have a reason. I just need to take care of them." The princess comforted herself.

She knew that Zheng Qian, if he didn't want to say anything, even if he forced him to ask, he would still be slapped in the face.If he wanted to say it, Zheng Qian would naturally say it without the princess asking.

Saying or not, there is always his reason.The princess gave up the idea of ​​further questioning.

"Someone is coming." Zheng Qian stood up from Hu Niu's bed, and suddenly the cabin shook. Zheng Qian knew that the ship had already left.

Then there was a knock on the door.

"Brother, Xiao Shan is here to visit." Zhao Chaofan's voice sounded outside the door.

"Come in, my brother, don't be so polite." Zheng Qian faced the direction of the hatch.

Zhao Chaofan led Xiao Shan in.

Xiao Shan was still dressed in tattered clothes.He can build a boat, but he has no material with which to make clothes.His clothes were still worn when he was captured by the Tianyun group, and now he can't see the original color.

"Xiao Shan, I want to talk about my thoughts, right? When I first saw you, I knew you were not simple." Zheng Qian said to Xiao Shan in an old-fashioned tone like a big brother.

"Thank you benefactor for the compliment." Xiao Shan cupped his fists.

"Xiao Shan, I would like to ask. Can this boat allow us to leave this 'hidden world'?" Zheng Qian asked.

"Yes, benefactor. Since you know that there is a cave here, you should know that the name of this river is Tongtian River." Xiao Shan imagined Zheng Qian's mighty mighty, and believed that there was almost nothing in the world that Zheng Qian didn't know. that's it.

Zheng Qian secretly wiped his cold sweat.

This river is the Tongtian River, and this is the first time he has heard of it.

"The exit of the otherworldly place is in the Dark Night Forest?" Zheng Qian pretended to be nonchalant and continued to ask.

Xiao Shan felt that Zheng Qian really had a wide range of knowledge, and he knew that the source of this river was the Dark Night Forest when he heard about Tongtian River.

"Yes, benefactor. The direction we are going now is the direction of the Dark Night Forest. In order to find out this way, we have lost countless brothers in the past three years. That's why the Sky Meteor Group came out to pretend to be rescuers and deceive We were fooled. Grab some more brothers and execute them on the spot."

When Xiao Shan said this, his eyes were burning with anger.It was as if those scenes were appearing before his eyes one after another.

"Brother Xiao, please allow me to call him like this..." Zheng Qian really admired Xiao Shan.Three years, three years, but he hasn't polished his heart to fight. This person's willpower is quite good.

"Benefactor, don't call me that, you're going to kill me." Xiao Shan shook his hands again and again with a look of panic.

"It's okay, just call me that. Don't call me benefactor. I sound awkward. Just call me Zheng Qian."

"Zheng... Hero." Xiao Shan still couldn't call Zheng Qian by his full name. This man could fight against the Meteorite Group for three years without stopping, and his life was hanging by a thread every day, and he never flinched.Now it's just a change of name, but it makes this passionate man feel so imprisoned.Zheng Qian looked at Xiao Shan with interest, this man is really a contradiction.

"En... Zheng... Hero, the river we are walking on now is a tributary of the Tongtian River. There are some places in the Tongtian River that are the territory of monsters in the mountains. Once our brothers in a boat escaped by chance, But it became the bait of those monsters in the deep mountains. This road is really difficult."

"Brother Xiao, as far as I know, there are generally no third-level hegemons in every city. You are also a member of a certain Jianghu organization?" Zheng Qian turned around.

"I'm a direct descendant of the orthodox Fulan City Guard Army." Xiao Shan replied.

"Hey, didn't you say that all the third-level hegemons will be summoned by the imperial capital?" the princess wondered.

"This girl may not know that this rule is only limited to Winterfell. There are still some third-level hegemons in other cities, but there are not many of them. The emperor will strictly limit the number of third-level hegemons. More than Part of it will be forcibly summoned by the imperial capital."

"It's good to draw the salary from the bottom of the pot." Zheng Qian knew that this was the rule of the imperial capital, and it was also a way to weaken the local power.As long as the new forces of various local forces are not allowed to take shape, they will not pose a threat to the imperial capital.This not only saves the trouble of sending personnel abroad for a long time, but also has the effect of restraining local forces, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"Hero Zheng, I have 15 people in Lancheng who were saved by you. This kindness will never be forgotten in this life. Once Zheng Daxia is sent, my brothers who survived with 15 people in Lancheng will go through fire and water, and will not say anything."

"Don't worry, you will have a lot to do." Zheng Qian said with a smile, Xiao Shan seems to be very reliable and will be of great use in the future, but Zheng Qian then said, "Brother Xiao, just let go of this journey It’s just sailing at a high speed. As for the monsters in the deep mountains, there are me, Lao Zhao and the others, and nothing will happen.”

"With a word from Daxia Zheng, I'm relieved. Then I'll tell my brothers to speed up."

Zheng Qian sent Xiao Shan away with a smile.Turning back, what I saw was the princess looking thoughtful.

"Princess, what's on your mind?" Zheng Qian asked.

"Zheng Qian, tell me, why can't there be a third-level overlord in Winterfell, but there are other cities?" the princess said.

"It goes without saying that if there is a strong opponent in Winterfell, it will definitely cause big trouble." Zheng Qian thought for a while, and then said, "I suspect that not only me, but the Duan family, including Duan Hun and Duan Feng, have already Then there is the heart to resist the imperial capital. Otherwise, how could the Snow Wolf Battalion seem to have not heard of such a big commotion in front of Qianfenglou?"

This reminded the princess to remember.

"Oh..." The princess suddenly realized, "It turns out that the Grand Duke has already had this idea."

While talking, the princess thought about Duan Feng's usual words and deeds, and she really felt that there was something abnormal about Duan Feng.

"So, the current Winterfell City is my city. Even with Duan Feng, this city is now mine too."

"You said that the Huben Regiment is yours, but the Snow Wolf Camp is not yours. Also, you have not subdued the Jixiang Tea House, one of the four major powers, so how could it be possible that Winterfell is yours?" Princess I really want to know the reason why Zheng Qian said these words, and finally I couldn't help it, and said it straight out.
