Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 261 The First Queen of the Eastern Continent

Before leaving, Guo Jia suddenly remembered something and said, "Your Highness, should the candidates for the division commanders of the sixth and seventh divisions of the Southwest Corps be finalized?"

Although it was only a temporary reorganization of the divisions, Guo Jia believed that with the expansion of the fiefdom, it would be a matter of time before the two divisions were baptized on the battlefield.

Therefore, it is necessary to determine the candidate for the division commander.

Qian Yuan thought for a while, and said: "Let's decide Zhou Qing and Yu Jin, let the two take over and go to work immediately."

"As ordered!"

In this regard, Guo Jia did not express any views.

As the oldest general in the fiefdom, Zhou Qing was defeated in the competition with Yue Yun last time, but he still has abilities, and Qian Yuan didn't mind giving Zhou Qing a platform to play.

It depends on whether Zhou Qing can hold it.

As for Yu Jin, he can be regarded as one of the remaining summoned generals who is very capable of commanding troops. The rest, such as Qin Qiong and Hua Xiong, are more than brave but not talented.

Qian Yuan was worried about handing over [-] troops to their hands.

…………

Busy as it is, April is quickly coming to an end.

Luoyunzong set the time for the founding ceremony on the first day of May. As the time approached, it was finally too late to hide it, and it was learned by the neighbor Izumo Kingdom.

There is no way, such a grand ceremony, how could it escape the eyes of the Izumo spies.

Izumo Castle, the royal palace.

"It's a big treason, it's really a big treason, what is Luo Yunzong going to do, huh?" Upon receiving the news, the aged Izumo King Yunyi was so angry that his veins were about to explode.

Prime Minister Qin Di looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, like a Buddha in meditation.

"No, this king will never allow this." Izumo King's eyes were cold, "Luoyunzong, don't you want to establish a country? Very good, then I will let you taste the taste of ruining your country and your family."

Guo Jia really hit it off.

Only then did Qin Di say: "The Chaoge Army claims to be [-]. If we want to succeed, it is conservatively estimated that our army will dispatch at least three divisions. Your Majesty, what do you think?"

King Izumo did not lose his mind, thought for a while, and said, "Let the first, second and third divisions go out, it must be decided after a battle."

Of the five divisions of the Izumo Army, the first three are stationed in Izumo County, where Wangcheng is located, the remaining fourth division is stationed in Siyou County, and the fifth division is stationed in Yushui County.

It is equivalent to saying that King Izumo sent out all the troops stationed in the king's city.

Doesn't this mean that King Yun is stupid.

According to the geographical location of Izumo County, the north is Siyou and Yushuier County, the east is facing the sea, and most of the west and south are bordered by Chaoge County where Luoyunzong is located.

In other words, Chaoge County is the only threat to Wangcheng.

This time the army is going to attack Chaoge County, so naturally there is no need to keep any troops at home.As for the royal city, there are still three thousand imperial guards guarding it.

Can't lose it.

King Izumo continued, "Let Shijian be the coach of this expedition."

"Your Majesty, absolutely not."

No, Qin Di turned pale with shock.

Shijian, also known as Qin Shijian, is the eldest son of Qin Di. He currently serves as the deputy commander of the Izumo Army and the commander of the First Division. He is the leader of the younger generation in the Izumo Army.

The father and son of the Qin family, one is the prime minister and the other is in charge of the army. They are worthy of being the number one family in the Izumo country, and they have secretly aroused the envy of many people.

Even King Izumo is afraid that he will inevitably be jealous.

It's just that the history of the Qin family is longer than that of the Izumo country. It is indeed one of the oldest ancient families in this land. Through marriage, the relationship in the Izumo country is intricate.

He is also the representative and leader of the Izumo Family Group.

Therefore, even King Izumo did not dare to touch the Qin family, and could only choose to cooperate with the Qin family.No, the two sons of the Qin family both married the princesses of the kingdom, which shows King Liusha's great love for the Qin family.

Qin Di is also an old fox, so he naturally understands the principle that when the moon is full, it is bad.

It's just that when he is in his position, he can't do without arguing. In order to dispel the suspicion of King Izumo, Qin Di has pretended to be his grandson all his life, and has never been an early bird.

It can be regarded as a century-old tortoise.

Under such circumstances, how could Qin Di let Qin Shijian lead the army to go out? If he wins, with Qin Shijian's military exploits, he might be promoted to the commander of the Izumo Army.

Others envy that position, but to the Qin family, it is simply a powder keg.

It is absolutely impossible to sit still.

I don't want to, but King Izumo's attitude is very firm, "Shijian is young and promising, and he is worthy of a great responsibility. If you don't avoid your relatives, don't delay your love."

No one could hear the meaning in what King Izumo said.

Qin Di was so frightened that his palms sweated, but he didn't know how to refuse, so he could only agree with a wry smile.

Next, under the secret order of Izumo King, the Izumo Army quickly mobilized, preparing to mobilize the three master groups to attack Chaoge County.

Relevant food supplies are also being stepped up for preparation.

What is a little funny is that, because the envoys for the summer harvest have not arrived yet, and the Izumo Kingdom has limited food reserves, the Ministry of War actually secretly purchased food from the Southern Border Protectorate through the Chamber of Commerce.

Let the grain merchants in the Southern Border Protectorate take advantage of the opportunity to make a small fortune.

…………

Due to the actions of the Izumo Kingdom, the news that the Luoyun Sect was about to establish a kingdom quickly spread in the Eastern Continent, which finally added a bit of after-dinner talk to the calm situation.

This news also made many people feel uncomfortable.

For example, the leader of the Kunlun School, Chihu Zhenren,
As the leader of the original sect alliance, the superpower in the later stage of Shenhun, the Kunlun sect led by Chihu Zhenren may have been the first sect to establish a country in the Eastern Continent.

The Kunlun faction even made a plan to establish a country, but in the end they were attacked back and forth by the court and the king of Chu, and finally ended up being committed to the thief.

Unexpectedly, the Luoyun Sect, which was the least favored, wanted to complete this great cause for the sect.

Really unpredictable.

Another example is the Zixiao Sword Sect who took refuge in King Wei, and Tan Taixiong who served under Qianyuan's command, I am afraid that they will all express similar emotions, which can be regarded as a complete end to the sect alliance.

The mysterious underground communication array has long been activated by no one, and when each is their own master, who can trust whom?
People's hearts are the most unpredictable.

If it was said that the big bosses of the sect were only emotional, then as a neighbor of the Luoyun Sect, the Quicksand King was also furious when he heard the news.

Once the Gain Luoyun Sect was established, it would be equivalent to erecting a strong enemy to the east of the Quicksand Kingdom.

How can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch?

For the quicksand country, this is really a leaky house and it rains overnight. Although it is uncomfortable, there is nothing to do. The current quicksand country cannot protect itself, so there is no ability to interfere in other people's affairs.

How about love.

…………

In this way, amid all the disturbances, it finally came to the first day of May.

On this day, the Luoyun Sect officially announced to the public that the Luoyun Kingdom was established with Chaoge County as the boundary, and its true disciple Luo Mengli was crowned as the first king of the Luoyun Kingdom.

At the same time, she is also the first Queen of the Eastern Continent.

The head of the Luoyun Sect, Yunwu Zhenren, was crowned as the national teacher of the Luoyun Kingdom and in charge of the Luoyun National Taoist Academy, which is actually another name for the Luoyun Sect.

Change the soup but not the medicine.

Needless to say, the establishment of the Taoist Academy and the National Teacher were all written by Qian Yuan.

In this state-building feast, there is always the shadow of the Southern Border Protectorate, but on the surface, there is no one from the Southern Border Protector.

Even as the special envoy of Qianyuan, Su Qin, the palace secretary who rushed to Chaoge City to participate in the founding ceremony again, did not show up at the ceremony in a very low-key manner.

As for Xu Rong, he stayed in the barracks all the time and never went out.

All of this is naturally to cover up the relationship between the Southern Border Protectorate and the Luoyun Sect, so as to confuse the Izumo Kingdom and make the latter less wary of the Southern Border Protectorate.

So far, this strategy has been very successful.

To this day, Izumo King doesn't know that Luoyunzong's trick to establish a country is actually the trick of Qianyuan who has been playing behind the scenes, otherwise, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Needless to say, Chaoge City was bustling on this day.

However, in fact, the eyes and all the thoughts of Luoyun Kingdom's senior officials were not on Chaoge City at all, but on the northern border, where an epic battle that would determine the fate of the two countries was about to take place.

The Chaoge Army, trained by Xu Rong, has already gone to the front line and is standing by at the border.

In order to meet this battle and defend the country, Queen Luo Mengli is hard enough, and almost all of the [-] Chaoge troops are deployed on the northern border.

This is the real war.

Of course, Luo Mengli's ability to be so willful is also related to Chaoge County's superior geographical location. The only neighbors are Liusha Country and Izumo Country.

A week ago, Qian Yuan promised Luo Mengli that the Liusha Kingdom would not take the opportunity to make trouble.

With Qianyuan's promise, Luo Mengli dared to give it a go. He must block the strongest attack from the Izumo Kingdom, even if it is a gift for the rebirth of Luoyunzong's nirvana.

Of course, Qian Yuan did not reveal to Luo Mengli his plan to covet Siyou County.

One is the need for confidentiality.

Except for Guo Jia, Xue Rengui, Xu Chu and a few people who carried out the plan to attack Siyou County, even the brigade commanders under the First Division were not very clear about it.

It can be said that the confidentiality work is done well.

Secondly, it is also a strategic need.

If Luo Mengli was informed of this plan in advance, wouldn't it be a reassurance for her, then, would she still let the Chaoge Army fight Izumo Kingdom?

If you don't work hard, how can you hold the main force of the Izumo Kingdom and create opportunities for the Southwest Corps?
Therefore, in a sense, Luoyunzong became a pawn in Qianyuan's hands this time. May I ask, which chess player would confess to the pawn?

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the current alliance between the two parties is not close enough.
