Hearing this name, the Chenla envoy couldn't help but frowned. He had never heard of this name before. When did Jiaozhou add such a character.

Zhang He came out with a smile on his face, and said kindly: "I am Zhang He, Counselor of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. I will personally explain this matter to the king of your country. This road is for the diplomatic relations and trade between the two countries."

"Diplomatic relations and trade?"

The Chenla envoy's mouth twitched. Looking at this guy's smile, he suddenly felt a little disgusting. He was talking nonsense with his eyes open, and he was clearly planning to use troops against Chenla.

Just as he was about to speak, he was dragged away by Zhang He, because Wang Xiu still had guests to entertain.

In fact, there were really no distinguished guests, it was just that Wang Xiu didn't want to talk nonsense with them, no matter how much he said, it was just nonsense, which was meaningless.

Looking at their backs, Pang Tong couldn't help laughing and said, "This Zhenla reacted very quickly. He actually gave such a big gift and even mentioned this road. I'm afraid he knows what the lord is thinking!"

Sending such a big gift for no reason, if they didn't know that Wang Xiu was going to attack Chenla, they would definitely not be so stupid.

"Hmph, I'm only giving gifts now, but it's too late."

Wang Xiu sneered, and said disdainfully: "If they sent troops to aid me in Jiaozhou last time, I could still regard them as true friends, but last time they chose to stand on the sidelines, it is clear that they are nothing!"

If there is grass on the wall, then we can't keep it.

This road must be built, and Chenla and Linyina must also be destroyed, otherwise it will come back sooner or later.

How could someone else sleep soundly in the couch? Lin Yi dared to go north to invade Jiaozhou at the beginning, and it is also possible in the future. The danger must be killed in the cradle.

Once an outbreak breaks out, places like Tanglin State in Iowa will be in danger.

Not to mention the fall of the place, I am afraid that the people in several states will also suffer heavy casualties. After all, these Linyi people are not good men and women, and they will kill people.

So Wang Xiu didn't mind being this villain.

Pang Tong nodded and said with a smile: "Foreigners are unreliable. These people compliment you when you are strong. Once there is a change in Jiaozhou, I am afraid they will be the first to strike."

"By the way, what happened to Shelong recently?" Wang Xiu smiled.

"Haha, the [-] elites of the Commander-in-Chief defeated the [-] elites of the enemy Shelong in one battle, and also defeated the courage of Shelong. Now they have taken the initiative to shrink the line of defense for more than ten miles, obviously out of fear." Pang Tong sent a letter Handing the battle report to Wang Xiu, he smiled.

Actively shrinking the defense line for more than ten miles, this Shelong is quite courageous.

Looking at the battle report in his hand and the casualty ratio in it, Wang Xiu couldn't help but suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "It seems that I overestimated this Shelong. Although they have a climate now, compared to the elites of the Tang Dynasty, they are still It's a lot worse!"

The opponent may have strong soldiers, but the problem is that fighting is not all about your strength.

Covered by Hao Zhao's powerful firepower, the barbarians were nothing more than targets, so the losses were so heavy and they had no power to resist.

The barbarians also have bows and arrows, but their bows and arrows are under the defense of the city wall, and they can't exert much strength at all, not to mention that the Jiaozhou army still has armor and armor.

This has virtually weakened the combat effectiveness of the barbarians. Coupled with Hao Zhao's strategizing, the famous butcher Li finally died under the butcher's knife of others.

"Haha, it's not that Shelong can't do it, it's that the lord is too strong. I'm afraid it's hard to find a few examples of the four thousand elite equipment configuration in the entire Tang Dynasty. Moreover, this Hao Zhao is exceptional. The lord has won a general!"

Pang Tong's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help laughing.

He knew in his heart that the 4000 people in Zhennan Mansion were definitely the elite among the elite. Compared with the [-] troops in Jiaozhou, their strength was simply not at the same level, it was much higher.

"Haha, Hao Zhao really didn't disappoint the governor. This battle really scared the barbarians, otherwise I really thought I was afraid of them."

Wang Xiu said proudly.

Hao Zhao fought this battle really well, and he also played the domineering spirit of the Jiaozhou army, and even defeated the barbarian soldiers.

As for the weapons and equipment of the army, they are all rewarded by the system, and they bring their own equipment when they are summoned, so these 4000 people naturally have the most elite equipment.

Especially for the camp, if Wang Xiu were to form this kind of heavy infantry, it would cost more than one million.

However, under the system rewards, he easily obtained thousands of camps, and they were fully armed. This starting point was a few blocks higher than Sheron.

With Hao Zhao, an existence with invincible ability to defend the city guarding the city, Zhennan Mansion is impenetrable.

Not to mention Butcher Li, even if the big tiger Shelong went out in person, he would have to return home without a feather.

But this also reminded him that it seems that the strategy against Shelong needs to be adjusted. After all, the opponent's strength has obviously not reached its peak, and this is the time to destroy them.

It would be a pity if they were allowed to grow stronger.

He thought of one person, and that was Xing Daorong!

Although this guy's combat power is not good, but his special attribute skills are awesome. With his blessing, he can definitely beat the barbarians to cry, and even make the barbarians frightened.

This guy may not be good at other things, but bragging he is invincible.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking: "How is Xing Daorong handling the clan affairs recently, it should be almost the same?"

Since Du Ziteng and Cui Yulou were annihilated at the previous Hongmen Banquet, the clans and powerful families in the entire southwest region have followed the rules a lot, and they all took the initiative to move closer to the Governor's Mansion, and did not dare to violate it in the slightest.

What's more, they knew the emperor's favor for Wang Xiu, so how could they dare to make trouble.

Not only is she planning to marry the princess, but she is also crowning her personally, which is clearly treating her as one of her own.

If this is not interesting, there is no reason to die.

Chapter 85

"My lord, a young talent, will be crowned by the emperor himself. The future will be unspeakable. These people dare not continue to pierce!"

Mentioning these powerful clans, Pang Tong couldn't help laughing and mockingly said.

He disdains these so-called powerful clans, even aristocratic families, for being nothing more than a group of rice worms, sucking the blood of the common people.

All of them were extremely arrogant before, but now after the lord killed Du Ziteng, they were so frightened that they hurried over to join him, without any integrity.

When the time comes for the survival of the country, there are not many families who are really willing to work hard with the country.

To put it bluntly, the family is unreliable.

Hearing this, Wang Xiu couldn't help laughing and said: "This is also because Jiaozhou is relatively remote, so there are not many resources. This is why there are many powerful clans in Jiaozhou, but few aristocratic families."

Aristocratic families are families that have been officials for generations. These families control some official resources, so they basically have a lot of power.

But in this area of ​​Jiaozhou, most of them were sent from exile, which means that the Du family is a bit of a family.

The other aristocratic families were either exiled like the Chen Dian family, or they fled here at the beginning, and their roots are not deep.

If Wang Xiu did this in Chang'an, the impeachment memorials on Li Shimin's desk would be full before the next day, after all, the family is not alone.

Jiaozhou dragons and snakes are mixed, so most of them use their surnames to form clans.

However, although they have a large number of people, their official strength is not enough. It may be possible to deal with the governor without the support of the army, but they are powerless to deal with a tough character like Wang Xiu.

Surrender is their only option.

But since they have already made a choice, it would be a pity for Xing Daorong to stay here.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help saying in a deep voice: "The matter of the clan has come to an end. After this harvest, you will be responsible for expanding the number of recruits. In a place as big as the Southern Governor's Mansion, 3 people are too few. One hundred thousand."

"One hundred thousand?"

Pang Tong couldn't help but turn pale with shock. One hundred thousand troops is not a joke. He couldn't help persuading him: "My lord, once there are one hundred thousand troops, I'm afraid the imperial court won't just sit back and watch. There will be a lot of trouble at that time."

An army of [-] means that Wang Xiu can completely rebel. Although he will not reach Chang'an, the threat is so great that it is impossible for Li Shimin to ignore it.

"Hey, of course they won't sit idly by, but have you forgotten that we still have a Jiaozhou governor who hasn't come to take office? He is my guarantee!"

Wang Xiu laughed.

Such a governor of Jiaozhou is actually a complete display, overlapping with the governor's mansion of the capital, but why Li Shimin still sent people here, the meaning of this is understood by smart people.

This is to monitor him, this is definitely a confidant of Li Shimin.

Pang Tong suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "So that's the case. I almost forgot if my lord didn't tell me. I thought I wouldn't come."

When the decree was announced last time, it was said that the governor of Jiaozhou would come, but he didn't come, and he almost forgot.

"Hahaha, it's not that I won't come, but I don't even want to come!"

Wang Xiu couldn't help laughing, but all Li Shimin's confidantes are big figures who stir up the wind and rain in the court.

To be a governor in a poor country like Jiaozhou is undoubtedly exile and demoted, who wants to come.

And with what happened to Cheng Yaojin and Li Xiaogong, it would be strange for them to think about it.

Pang Tong also couldn't laugh or cry, there is such an advantage in emotional friendship, people don't want to come, but let them be free.

Wang Xiu glanced at him and said with a smile, "Shi Yuan, do you know who I admire the most?"

"Champion Hou Huo Qubing?" Pang Tong guessed.

"No, this person's name is He Shen. He is a magistrate. He said something that I think is true." Wang Xiu said solemnly.

"What?"

Hearing that Wang Xiu was so solemn, Pang Tong couldn't help but look solemn. This is probably the most reasonable saying, comparable to the words of a saint.

Wang Xiu glanced at him, and said meaningfully: "This is a famous saying of being an official: no matter what you are doing behind your back, but on the bright side, you must always put loyalty and patriotism on your lips, and even more in your heart. As time goes by , you yourself feel that you are a loyal minister, let alone someone else?"

puff!

Pang Tong couldn't help but spit out his tea. Although he didn't know who this He Shen was, he knew that the one who could say this was definitely not a loyal minister, but a treacherous minister.

Just because of the first sentence, no matter what you do behind the scenes, it is clearly the same as the one behind the other.

But after thinking about it carefully, it really is so, he couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said: "My lord is really a wise saying, although I don't know who this He Shen is, but he can definitely have power over the government, even I can deceive myself, let alone It is the emperor, this is definitely a great talent."

"Haha, of course!"

Wang Xiu couldn't help laughing, if it wasn't for this, he wouldn't even have to give away the Mo Dao.

The reason why He Shen ended badly was entirely because he didn't have soldiers and horses in his hands, or he had no intention of rebelling in the first place, and of course there were Qianlong's checks and balances.

Why did Wang Xiu dare to support Li Shimin so arrogantly?

It's very simple, he has the system to obtain a lot of resources, loyal soldiers, and ideas that are centuries ahead, if he doesn't have this confidence, he should be the captain of the horse with peace of mind.

There are only [-] troops, and with Li Shimin's previous secret edict, Wang Xiu can recruit in the name of opening up the passage to the Pyu Kingdom and preventing the Nanzhao Chenla from invading.

This is not a problem, it must be said with loyalty, everyone is a loyal minister in the heart of the emperor.

The corner of Pang Tong's mouth twitched.

No wonder there were huge banners written on the military training ground in Jiaozhou, that is, to fight for the Tang Dynasty, and to fight for the emperor. He thought his master was really so loyal.

This is the credit of this set of wise sayings.

"Okay, let's go down first. The top priority is to build these two roads and prepare for the next big harvest of grain. These things can't be missed."

Wang Xiu ordered.

The output of high-yield rice is astonishing. If there is not enough storage preparation, there may be an embarrassing situation where there is no place to store the grain.

Therefore, everything in the granary must be built in advance, and of course the road cannot be stopped.

This is related to the Southwest Raiders, which is very important.

"Don't worry, my lord, we have reached an agreement with the clan before, and they will help build the granary, and they will definitely not disappoint the governor." Pang Tongtong said with a serious face.

"That's right. The governor of Jiaozhou is expected to come down soon. People need to be prepared for what to say, what not to say, what to do, and what not to do. You need to have a number."

Wang Xiu sighed, it is not easy to be loyal these days.

Chapter 86 Such an artifact, Wang Xiu Zhizhong

The situation in the southwest is very good, and Li Shimin in Chang'an is also in a good mood.

Because Mo Dao has already taken shape.

After having a complete production process, the weapon manufacturing department under the Shaofu Supervisor quickly completed the production, and a brand new Mo knife was born.

This is a complete Mo Dao, which is one foot long and weighs fifteen catties. It is one or two feet longer than the Mo Dao presented by Wang Xiu.

As soon as the new version of Mo Dao was created, its sharpness shocked the entire Shaofu Supervisor. The Shaofu Supervisor was so excited that tears filled his eyes, and he found Li Shimin overnight.

"Your Majesty, the power of Mo Dao is astounding!" the Shaofu Supervisor said excitedly.

For this reason, Li Shimin summoned his confidant generals overnight to test this peerless weapon. After all, they ordered the first batch of Mo Dao.

"Your Majesty, is this Modao really made?" Cheng Yaojin was about to drool, he had been coveting Modao for a long time.

"Not bad!"

Li Shimin waved the Mo Dao in his hand. As a general, the Mo Dao weighing fifteen catties was no problem for him.

The heavy feeling in his hand is incomparable. He can clearly feel that if the knife goes down, no one will survive.

"Is the thing I asked you to prepare ready?" Li Shimin looked at the Shaofu Supervisor.
