The end of the military era

After Feng Zhihuan, the envoy of Haonan Jiedu, learned of the real gold reserves of the Pingluan Gold Mine, his eyes turned red.

It's a pity that considering that the owner behind the Pingluan Gold Mine is the Zhou family, Feng Zhihuan, the envoy of the Southern Jiedu, has never dared to reach out to the Pingluan Gold Mine.

However, in the past two years, natural disasters continued in the territory of Yannan Town, which caused the fiscal revenue of Yannan Jiedu Mansion to drop sharply.

Last year, a large-scale animal horde broke out at a node in different time and space in Beinan Town, breaking through the army's defense line, causing huge casualties and property losses.

In the end, the financial deficit was so serious that Feng Zhihuan, the envoy of the Southern Jiedu, who could hardly pay the military salary, directly sent troops to take over the Pingluan Gold Mine forcibly on May 1543, 5.

In the Yanan Jiedu Mansion of Longping City, the capital of Yanan Town, Xie Xun, the division commander of the First Infantry Division of the Yanan Army, persuaded Feng Zhihuan, the envoy of the Yanan Jiedu: "Marshal, quickly send the Pingluan Gold Mine Bring back the troops!

The Pingluan Gold Mine is the property of the Zhou family. Once the Zhou family sends troops for the Pingluan Gold Mine, the consequences will be disastrous! "

Xie Xun is Feng Zhihuan's confidant and Feng Zhihuan's brother-in-law, but Feng Zhihuan sent troops to take over the Pingluan Gold Mine this time, but he did not discuss it with Xie Xun before.

Feng Zhihuan shook his head and said: "Now our Nanjiedu Mansion is so heavily in debt that we can't even pay the military salary.

If we don't find a new source of income, we don't have to wait for the Zhou family to send troops to attack, our Nanjiedu Mansion will directly fall and the monkeys will disperse.

I sent troops to occupy the Pingluan Gold Mine, and there was no other way, and I didn't want to provoke the Zhou family, but at present, only the Pingluan Gold Mine can save our Nanjiedu Mansion. "

Xie Xun said bitterly: "Commander, I know the difficulties of the Jiedu Mansion, but I can't go grab the Pingluan Gold Mine!

The Zhou family controls millions of troops. If the Zhou family sends troops to attack Nan Town, we can't stop it at all! "

"Tell me, if we don't rob the Pingluan gold mine, where else can we get a large amount of money?"

"Marshal, can't we borrow some more money from Yan's bank?"

"The Jiedu Mansion has already borrowed 3 million silver coins from the Yan Family Bank. Yan Shaoqiu told me that the Yan Family Bank can no longer provide more loans to the Jiedu Mansion. Otherwise, there will be problems with the funds of the Yan Family Bank.

If there is a problem with the Yan family bank, not only our Nan Town, but even Bei Town will be messed up. "

After a pause, Feng Zhihuan continued: "Now the Silver Wolf Column of the rebel army supported by the Zhou family is fighting fiercely with the Barbarian Bull Empire.

Our South Town has joined the Southwest Alliance, and the Southwest Alliance has also formed a military alliance with the Northwest Five Towns against the Zhou family. Maybe the Zhou family can bear it this time. "

Xie Xun said sadly: "Commander, the Zhou Rui who controlled the Zhou family was the master who dared to fight the Silver Wolf Empire when he only controlled a few cities.

This time we Nanjiedu Mansion forcibly occupied the Pingluan Gold Mine, which can be said to have slapped the Zhou family in the face. With Zhou Rui's character, he would never let it go. "

After being silent for a while, Feng Zhihuan said in a firm tone: "If you fight, you will fight, anyway, you will meet the Zhou family sooner or later.

I will never give up the Pingluan Gold Mine. If I return the Pingluan Gold Mine to the Zhou family, what will I do to pay the troops below!

Immediately let the armies of the major families in Yannan Township, as well as the 5 infantry divisions and 4 mixed brigades under the jurisdiction of our Yannan Jiedu Mansion, fully prepare for battle. "

When Xie Xun left the Jiedu Mansion of Yanan and returned to the station of the [-]st Infantry Division of the Nanan Army in Longping City, there were already two other infantry division commanders and two mixed brigade commanders of the Nanan Army who were in Xie Xun's camp. The office awaits him.

"Old Xie, what does the handsome say?"

Xie Xun sighed and said, "Get ready to start a war with the Zhou family!"

"What? Go to war with the Zhou family! Isn't this courting death?"

"What's the commander thinking? You can't rob the Zhou family's Pingluan gold mine if you don't have money!"

"Even if the 5 infantry divisions and 4 mixed brigades of our Jiedu Mansion are tied together, as well as the troops of the major families of the Beinan Army, they may not be the opponent of any of the Zhou family's feudal troops!"

"What should we do now? We definitely can't fight, we can't fight at all!"

The two infantry division commanders and the two mixed brigade commanders all exploded when they learned that Feng Zhihuan, the envoy of the Southern Jiedu, had no intention of stopping.

At this time, Xie Xun said something thought-provoking, "It seems that we can only find a way out by ourselves."

The Pingluan Gold Mine has more than 6 tons of gold reserves, and the ore mined has an astonishingly high gold content.

Now the Pingluan Gold Mine can mine more than 100 tons of gold every month, bringing a net income of more than 2000 million silver coins to the Zhou family.

No matter how rich and powerful the Zhou family is, it is impossible to give up such a gold mine.

After the Pingluan Gold Mine was seized by Feng Zhihuan, the Jiedu envoy of Yanan, the Zhou family immediately began to send additional troops to the border area adjacent to Fengwu Town and Yanan Town.

"Boom..." Wang Yongxing, the high-ranking martial artist, hit the desk in front of him so hard that it even cracked the solid wood tabletop.

"Did Feng Zhihuan get his head kicked by a donkey? Doesn't he know that the owner of the Pingluan Gold Mine is the Zhou family?" Wang Yongxing, the governor of Beibei, shouted angrily.

Yan Shaoqiu, the owner of the Yan Family Bank, said with a wry smile: "Marshal, Marshal Feng really has no money, otherwise he wouldn't go to grab the Zhou family's Pingluan gold mine.

Our Yan Family Bank has lent 3 million silver coins to Marshal Feng before, and we really don't have the ability to lend more funds to Marshal Feng. "

Last year, Yan Shaoqiu's father passed away due to illness, so Yan Shaoqiu took over as the head of the Yan family and became the new boss of the Yan family bank.

Before the establishment of the Southwest Alliance, Yannan Town and Beibei Town had been in an alliance for many years, so Wang Yongxing, the governor of Yanbei Jiedu, was even more angry.

Feng Zhihuan, the Jiedu envoy of Yanan, robbed the Zhou family's gold mine, which is equivalent to dragging Beibei town into the water.

Now that it was too late to hide from the Zhou family, Feng Zhihuan, the envoy of the Southern Jiedu, deliberately shot at the Zhou family's gun. Isn't this courting death?

It doesn't matter if you seek death yourself, but don't drag everyone to die together!

Wang Yongxing, the envoy of Bei Jiedu, gritted his teeth and said: "Not having money is not a reason, don't we also have no money in Bei Jiedu's mansion?

You must know that the Zhou family is very afraid of even those orc countries. Feng Zhihuan's crazy behavior is completely playing with fire and setting himself on fire! "

Yan Shaoqiu sighed and said, "Perhaps Marshal Feng feels that there are eight other feudal towns in the Southwest Alliance and Northwest Alliance to back him up.

In addition, the Silver Wolf Column of the rebel army supported by the Zhou family is fighting the Barbarian Bull Empire, so the Zhou family may not send troops to Nannan Town. "

"Will not send troops?" Wang Yongxing, the military governor of Beibei, suddenly became very depressed, "Pingluan Gold Mine is a mountain of gold, how could the Zhou family give up so easily."

Yan Shaoqiu hesitated for a moment and asked: "Marshal, if the Zhou family sends troops to the south town, shall we join the war in the north town?"

Bei Jiedu envoy Wang Yongxing said bitterly: "Let's see the reaction of Boting Town, Deyang Town, and the five northwest towns first!"

After Yan Shaoqiu left Yanbei Jiedu Mansion and returned to the Yan Mansion in Zeyang City, he immediately called his younger brother Yan Shaoen over, "Shaoen, you should immediately contact the ghost people and tell them that our Yan family is willing to help Zhou. The family is in the south of the town, and even in the north of the town, providing all the support that can be provided.

It can even help the Zhou family to instigate the rebellion of many generals of the direct line troops of the two Jiedu mansions. "

Yan Shaoen couldn't help being taken aback, "Brother, are you planning to completely join the Zhou family?

But the Zhou family already owns Zhou's Bank. If the Zhou family takes control of Yannan Town and Beibei Town, what will our Yan Family Bank do? "

Yan Shaoqiu said with a wry smile: "I understand that the so-called Southwest Alliance, and the Northwest Alliance, cannot possibly be the opponent of the Zhou family.

In order to prevent our Yan family from being eaten without even bones left, we can only give up some things. "

Yan Shaoen said somewhat unwillingly: "Brother, the combined strength of the nine feudal towns of the Southwest Alliance and the Northwest Alliance may not be much weaker than that of the Zhou family."
