Chapter 926

The southern border is vast and sparsely populated, and the people will not easily become pirates unless they are forced to.

Even occupying the mountain as king is much better than being a water bandit.

After all, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains depends on the water to eat the water. If the water bandits have no source of survival, how can they live?
Except for the medicinal materials that can be obtained in southern Xinjiang, there is basically not much output. Therefore, although southern Xinjiang has many waterways, water transportation is not well developed.

Except for a few major water transport routes, basically no one is in the business of losing their heads and not getting enough to eat.

Therefore, Shangguan Qiuyu, who has experience in recruiting water bandits, will naturally not let go of these good sources of water troops.

This is also one of the reasons why Yingyi and the others recruited so many water bandits without any scruples.

There was not much difference between soldiers and bandits in essence at that time, it was just that one was powerful and the other was weak.

The powerful and upright robbed the world of money, and called its no-cost business beauty taxation, because the former was powerful, and everyone had to pinch their noses to recognize it.

The weak latter originally wanted to follow behind to drink some soup, but he didn't want the people who had been robbed once to be unwilling, and insisted on working hard with him.

After all, the former is only seeking money, which is more or less acceptable to people, but most of the latter not only seek money, but also kill.

This kind of behavior that has no strength but also learns from others to do business without money, what is it to seek death without death?

Therefore, one is a soldier and the other is a bandit. Although their essence is the same, their identities are very different.

It can be seen from this that Shangguan Qiuyu's actions contained much kindness and how many people were indirectly saved.

As for those who unfortunately died during the compilation process, he could only mourn for them, lamenting that they did not have this blessing.

Well, although it is a bit shameless, as long as it can strengthen his own power, he has no time to pay attention to it.

Just when Shangguan Qiuyu was meditating and retreating, Tie Liu and others recruited water bandits and organized a naval army, and the five surnamed families responded silently.

Far away in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion in Nanning City, all the servants were trembling, for fear that a big disaster would happen if they were not careful.

Now both the Zhennan Prince's Mansion and the entire Nanning City are under martial law.

Lord Zhennan Shangguanxiong ignored the warning of Zhennan King and still led his troops into the south, which made Zhennan King both angry and frightened.

He is well aware of the strength in the hands of Shangguan Xiong, Lord Zhen Guo, who controls the Southeast Army, one of Dayu's most elite armies.

With the combat power of the Southeast Army, even if he gathers all the garrisons in the entire southern land, it may be difficult to stop his troops.

Therefore, ever since he learned that Lord Zhen Guo led the troops into the Southland, he has been unable to eat or sleep well, and his temper has grown day by day, making everyone around tremble with trepidation, and he dare not even speak too loudly.

"What? Hasn't there been any news from the generals stationed in various places?"

As early as ten days ago, when he received the warning from Lord Zhen Guo, Shangguan Xiong, to forcefully continue marching towards the south.

So he ordered the garrison generals from all over the place to gather troops to attack the progress of Shangguanxiong, the Duke of Zhen.

However, ten days have passed, and the generals stationed in various places seem to have never heard of it.

Not to mention that there was no one who blocked the advance of Shangguan Xiong's army, and there were not many who even led troops to Nanning City.

It is the current situation that is the king of Zhennan's greatest worry. After all, it is self-evident that the generals stationed in various places are in this way.

"Returning to the prince, the generals from all over the country have already received the order of the Lord of the Town, and the Lord of the Town ordered them not to leave the station without authorization, so they all..."

Speaking of this, Xiao An, the general manager of the Zhennan Palace, saw that his prince's face was gloomy again, so he didn't dare to continue talking.

For the prince of his own family, all the servants of the palace are still in awe.

After all, the ability of a prince who can sit on one side is absolutely beyond doubt.

Due to the special geographical environment in the South, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is often obstructed by the forces of the five surname families.

So much so that the King of Zhennan has always chosen to give in and retreat. In this kind of almost aggrieved retreat, the King of Zhennan himself is becoming more and more gloomy and terrifying.

The chief manager Xiao who was close to him beside him also didn't dare to overstep in the slightest, for fear that if he was not careful, his prince would miss him, and he would die without knowing how.

The generals stationed in various places did not obey their own orders, which made Zhennan Wang a headache, waved his hand and said:

"Let's forget about this matter for now, can there be a reply from Yucheng?"

The King of Zhennan knew that although he was the governor of the town, he did not have direct command of the generals stationed in various places.

The generals stationed in various places refused to obey orders, and he, the prince, had no way to convict him directly.

After all, the Dayu court was also afraid that once the power of the governor of the town was too great, it would cause chaos by the vassal princes.

Therefore, King Zhennan also gave up the idea of ​​forcibly dispatching troops to various places.

"My lord, there has been news from Yucheng that His Royal Highness Yu said that there are unknown forces behind the Shangguan's family who are secretly supporting them, so we had better not be enemies for the time being."

Hearing his ninth brother's reply, King Zhennan frowned, and couldn't help laughing at himself:
"Not to be an enemy? Whether to be an enemy now is not up to me.

Now Shangguan Xiong doesn't listen to the imperial edict and openly leads the troops into the Southland.

Who knows what he wants to do, and this king also wants not to be an enemy, but is it possible?
Could it be that Brother Jiu wants the king to surrender to that bastard Shangguan Xiong? "

Seeing that his lord was talking more and more, even the Ninth Prince made arrangements, Chief Manager Xiao was sweating like he didn't want money.

Hastily replied:

"My lord, King Yu sent a letter saying that the five surnamed families would never let Lord Zhen Guo mess around in the south, so"

Before Xiao An could finish speaking, King Zhennan raised his hand and interrupted:
"You also believe this?"

Ignoring Xiao An's embarrassment, King Zhennan continued:
"The warrior Shangguanxiong, the king is very clear about what kind of person he is, if he wants to do something, how can the five surnames family be able to stop him.

The king admits that the five-surname family is powerful in the south, but he wants to restrain the ambition of Shangguanxiong's tyrannosaurus.

If you don't show some real ability, it is absolutely impossible.

That's fine, I want to see if the five-surnamed family is really as unshakable as the legend says after so many years. "

After talking to himself, King Zhennan seemed to have thought of something again, and then asked in a deep voice:

"You can find out, who is behind Bashui Yinlong who is supporting him?
A little reptile, now wants to transform into a dragon, it really doesn't know how to live or die. "

"Return to the lord, if the old slave's guess is correct, the person behind Yin Long is very likely to be a major general of the Duke of Zhen."

Speaking of this, Xiao An was also a little puzzled. He didn't understand why Yingyi and the others were suddenly so loyal to the Shangguan's family that they didn't even listen to the orders of the Dragon Guardian Order.

Now, after voting for Shangguan's family one by one, all of them abruptly stepped into the Xiantian realm, which is very different from before.

Now the six people are assisting Yin Long, the leader of the bandits, to incorporate all the bandit forces in the southern waters, and the power is growing like a snowball. He can't help being shocked when he sees it.
