Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 216 Failed in April
When it comes to Ganji, the commander of the Second Army, he is also a well-known figure.

First is his identity.

Qianji was the younger brother of Emperor Qian and the uncle of Emperor Qianyuan and others, and was granted the title of King of Jin.

The King Jin is in charge of the Second Army, which not only shows the strategic position of the northern border in the empire, but also proves from the side that King Qianji of Jin has won the trust of Emperor Qian.

As an imperial family, Jin Wang Ganji supported the Eighth Prince Ganyou in the battle for the heir apparent, but when it comes to right and wrong, his power field must be clear and firm.

At the critical moment, Jin Wang Ganji did not embarrass the imperial family, showing the bloody nature of the imperial family.

In contrast, the hesitation shown by the eighth prince when the enemy country invaded was infinitely magnified by the ruling and opposition parties, and he was characterized as cowardly fighting, disregarding the interests of the empire for his own selfishness.

It is a disgrace to the royal family.

In addition, since the Eighth Prince took office as the Governor of the Northern Territory, he has only been busy wooing noble families and gentry in the Northern Territory and consolidating his power in the Northern Territory, and he has seldom worried about the battle of the Beidi Kingdom.

Even last winter, after Beidi Kingdom's frequent provocations, the Eighth Prince did not pay enough attention to it and did not send heavy troops to guard the border of Shaoyang County.

The logistics support of the Second Army was also not done well.

In this way, the Eighth Prince was regarded as the biggest culprit of the defeat, and became a scapegoat rather than a scapegoat.

Fueled by people with good intentions, the Eighth Prince has lost the hearts of the people. Although the battle for the heir apparent has not yet been decided, it is foreseeable that the hope of the Eighth Prince's victory is already very slim.

This was unexpected by everyone.

The people of the empire are proud.

They can tolerate the invasion of monsters, and can even tolerate the sects causing chaos within the empire and regard it as the internal affairs of the empire, but they will never tolerate the invasion and division of the country by the empire.

On this issue, there is no room for bargaining.

It is also true that Qian Yuan, who was refining the natal magic weapon, took the time to show up and issued a statement: "The empire's territory is sacred and inviolable, and the Southwest Corps is obliged to do whatever the imperial court orders."

To show determination to fight against war.

The Ninth Prince Qianshen, who is in the capital of God, is even more savvy. While taking the opportunity to suppress the Eighth Prince, he announced in a high-profile manner that he promised the Second Army to urgently expand a division.

In this way, the Second Army became another full-scale army after the First Division.

What outsiders don't know is that the Ninth Prince has reached a tacit understanding with Jin Wang Ganji in private, and the newly formed Fifth Division of the Second Army will have the Ninth Prince's shadow.

In other words, the Ninth Prince took the opportunity to extend his hand into the Second Legion.

Really vicious.

In addition to urgent military expansion, facing the Beidi Kingdom's [-] cavalry, the Second Army Corps alone was not enough. The Ninth Prince urgently ordered the First Division of the City Guards to go north for reinforcements.

What is intriguing is that the Ninth Prince expanded the army of the Second Army and moved the city guards northward, but turned a blind eye to the Third Army stationed in Gushe County.

It can be seen that after all, there is still selfishness, and he cannot escape the shackles of the struggle for succession.

Another side effect of this move is that due to the northward march of the city guards, the threat to the north of Kunwu County was lifted, allowing the Kunlun faction to concentrate their forces to deal with the conquest of the Fourth Army.

Let the Fourth Army pay more casualties than previously expected.

This is another surprise.

…………

Throughout April, the Eastern Continent was raging with flames.

On the battlefield in Kunwu County, after nearly [-] casualties, the Fourth Army finally captured the Bell and Drum Mansion in Kunwu County and obtained an "advance base".

It's a pity that throughout April, the focus of the ruling and opposition parties was on the northern border, and this victory of the Third Army didn't even stir up any waves in the ruling and opposition parties.

The fifth prince Ganke was very depressed.

On the Shaoyang County battlefield, the Beidi Iron Cavalry really lived up to its reputation. Even if the Second Army Corps put on a stance of fighting to the death, it still forced a breakthrough and went to the palace.

The one that fell was Huqi Mansion, which was handed over to Baisha Mansion.

It was only when the First Division of the City Guards arrived at the front for reinforcements that the battle finally stabilized, forcibly blocking Beidi's cavalry from heading south.

But when it comes to counterattack, I'm afraid it's too weak.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, it may be difficult to subdue Baisha and Huqi prefectures in a short period of time.

In addition to Dagan, small-scale conflicts also broke out between Liusha Kingdom and Wanhuamen, and between Izumo Kingdom and Luoyun Sect, testing each other.

But both sides were very restrained, and no major war broke out.

It's not that Liusha Kingdom and Izumo Kingdom are not bloody enough, it's just that they are small and weak countries, and a single move can affect the whole body. If a war really breaks out, it will be a battle where the fate of the country is at stake.

If you don't fight, you have to win.

…………

On the first day of May, swagger the city.

Despite the turmoil in the outside world, the rhythm of Zhaoyao County has not been disrupted.

Whether it was the relocation of the Qin Palace, the selection of officials, or the reorganization of the army, they were all proceeding in an orderly manner without any disturbance.

On this day, Lu Bing, the commander of the black guards, rushed to the county guard's mansion, begging to see Qian Yuan.In the past month, Lu Bing was the most frightening presence in the whole county.

In order to make up for the mistakes in the Jiwei City Guards Brigade and restore the trust of His Royal Highness King Qin in the Black Clothes Guards, the Black Clothes Guards worked hard to completely wipe out the remnants of the Taixu Sect.

There were no less than [-] big and small families that were raided alone, and thousands of heads fell to the ground.

Some people joked that it was the second battle of Zhaoyao County.

It was also through this action that the Black Clothes Guard established a reputation for being ruthless and became the most feared existence in the fief, and the color of talking about it changed.

In the temporary reception room, Qian Yuan said: "I'm so in a hurry to see you, what's the matter?"

"His Royal Highness, the matter in Qingqiu country has been clarified." Lu Bing is really not easy. While eliminating the remnants of the Taixu sect, he still has the energy to pay attention to the movements of the monster clan.

"Say." Qian Yuan's eyes lit up.

Since that great battle, Zhulong Kingdom and Qingqiu Kingdom have been silent, falling into a strange silence, and even the border trade has stopped.

This made Qian Yuan instinctively feel a little uneasy.

Lu Bingdao: "Your Highness, there is definite news that Qingqiu Kingdom has negotiated peace with Zhulong Kingdom. The two parties agreed that Qingqiu Kingdom will cede a large area of ​​land centered on Qinghu City in exchange for the two countries to stop fighting."

Qian Yuan was silent.

This confirmed his conjecture.

Hu Zun and Zhulong are both extraordinary existences, once they realize that fighting will only hurt both sides and benefit the human race in vain, they will definitely end the fight.

It's just that Qianyuan didn't expect that Master Hu would have such courage, and he would take the initiative to give in and cede the territory under the situation of restoring the decline.

Apparently, Master Hu didn't want to squeeze out the last bit of war capital of Qingqiu Kingdom. The toughness before was just a gesture to win bargaining chips for the negotiation.

Really a tough opponent.

Lu Bing said again: "Your Highness, according to the reports from the spies, the Black Leopard Pass is also within the ceded scope."

Qianyuan's eyes flashed coldly.

Black Leopard Pass is the only pass between Qingqiu Country and Zhaoyao County, and it is also a trade channel for both sides.Now that the Black Leopard Pass has been ceded, the Yinshan Pass further north will naturally also be acquired by the Zhulong Kingdom.

This also means that there is no intersection between Qingqiu Kingdom and Daqian.

Qianyuan guessed that Lord Fox was trying to survive by cutting off his tail, in exchange for Zhulong's forgiveness and giving Qingqiu a chance to recuperate on the condition of completely giving up entering Daqian.

Years of wars have taken a heavy toll on Qingqiu Country.

just
By doing this, Lord Fox was tantamount to betraying the trade agreement with Prince Qin's Mansion.

Qian Yuan didn't believe it. After Zhulong learned that it was Qin Wangfu who funded Qingqiu's food and grass behind the scenes, making Zhulong's success fall short, how would he feel good about Qin Wangfu.

Opposition is inevitable.

In this way, not only the Yaozu trade that Qianyuan painstakingly planned will die halfway, but the strategic security of Tengshe Pass will be raised to a new level.

After finally taming the wild wolf in Qingqiu country into a sheep, he had to face a lion again.

"It's really unsettling."

Although a little regretful, Qian Yuan wasn't too worried, that is, the current Southwest Corps was not something that the Zhulong Kingdom could provoke if they wanted to.

Qian Yuan has already made up his mind to ask Bingjia Division to step up refining a few spiritual fortress cannons and deploy them to Tengshe Pass to strengthen the city defense of Tengshe Pass without giving Zhulong Kingdom a chance.

As for the punishment of Qingqiu Kingdom's "breach of faith", Qian Yuan is beyond his reach now.

"There's always a chance."

Qian Yuan is a very patient avenger.
