The new era of chaos begins in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 360

Chapter 89 Ergou wants to open a branch mine
Of course, although Ergou didn't think that what Duke Shen Yang said that "the fourth lady of the Shenhou clan fell in love with him" was true, he would not belittle himself or even praise the bad guys of the Shenhou clan.

He is convinced that as long as he is given enough time and space to develop, he will never be inferior to any organization or force in the future, including the Celestial Clan, which is considered superior in people's minds.

That's why Ergou had to focus on finding a stable enough rear base for himself. Earlier, he had set his sights on the seemingly non-existent Shenyang Realm, and now he has set his sights on Lishan Garden.

As for why Ergou didn’t choose to develop directly in the Song Dynasty, it’s not that Ergou didn’t want to, but that the forces in the Song Dynasty were complicated. If he wanted to integrate the manpower and material resources of the entire Song Dynasty, he needed to break all the original order and re-establish it. Only a new human order can be achieved.

However, people in the Song Dynasty were not yet confused, and that land would face a great catastrophe in the future. Ergou could not forcefully go against the people's trend, but had no choice but to open a separate mine and develop it secretly.

As for why Ergou insists on opening the mine in advance, it is because he has already sensed the crisis.

According to reports from the demon-suppressing people from the Liao Kingdom, the Mohe tribe in the northeastern region was rising at this time, and they were now at war with Goryeo.

Although the invading party was the Goryeo army, the demon-suppressing people were more optimistic about the fighting power of the Mohe people, because they were more barbaric, more brutal, more warlike, and full of fighting spirit. Especially, there was a very powerful figure among the Mohe people.

The so-called Mohe people are actually the early names of the Jurchens. At this time, they had a very powerful figure. The only one Ergou could think of was the later Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda.

To be honest, the Song Dynasty in this era is really unlucky.

Since Zhezong's death, the emperors of the Zhao and Song dynasties have continued to pull their hips. The opponents they faced were one after another terrifying. In the past, there was the invincible commander of the Jurchen clan, Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda, and in the latter, there was a generation of geniuses from Mongolia. Genghis Khan.

Maybe this is the so-called pig teammate meeting a divine opponent, and even the gods can't bring them along.

If this were an ordinary world, Ergou was confident that even if the enemy in the future was extremely powerful, he would be able to turn things around with his foresight and advanced knowledge.

But there is weirdness and evil in this world.

The Jurchens in the north are not just barbaric tribes, but they also worship gods and often offer their blood and lives as sacrifices to the gods.

The key is that this kind of sacrifice by the Jurchens is responded to.

It is said that if any skinny boy from the Wanyan tribe enters the place of sacrifice to offer sacrifices to the gods, when he comes out, he can immediately stand on people with his fists, race horses with his arms, and race roe deer with his legs and feet.

That's right! Only the Mohe people's sacrifices from Wanyanbu will be responded to.

Moreover, those warriors of the Wanyan tribe who had undergone the sacrificial baptism were not only bloodthirsty but also fond of cannibalism, but most of them would only eat people on the battlefield.

As soon as such information was received, Ergou and many demon-suppressor bosses basically guessed that Wanyan Department was worshiping the evil god, and that he was worshiping the headless god who was famous for his cruelty and bloodthirsty.

In this way, Ergou finally realized that there was a reason why Wanyan Aguda could lead thousands of people to defeat the Liao Kingdom's more than 700,000 troops.

As the saying goes, even a broken ship has three pounds of nails. No matter how bad the Liao Kingdom was, it was impossible for all its armies to be useless.

After all, only a group of remnants of the Liao Kingdom defeated the Northern Expedition Song Army led by Tong Guan. There must be heroes among the orthodox army.

On the other hand, the Jurchens who had just started their army had thousands of men and horses, all of whom were able to wear heavy armor and ride fierce horses to charge back and forth among the thousands of troops for hundreds of rounds. This was like the resurrection of Guan Zhang and the reincarnation of Shu Bao.

Thinking about thousands of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Qin Qiong forming heavy armored cavalry to attack, the Liao army's rumor that "there are less than ten thousand Jurchens, and ten thousand are invincible" is no lie.

You must know that in the decades from the end of the Han Dynasty to the end of the Three Kingdoms, the Han nation sacrificed tens of millions of lives to cultivate Gu, but they could only produce more than 200,000 super heroes who could defeat one level.

How could the Wanyan tribe, a mere humble clan, produce such heroic men?

It would be really damning if there were no problems here.

Of course, this kind of super warrior spawned by the power of the evil god is not without its shortcomings. The biggest problem is that its service life is relatively short. It is a consumable item that has a lifespan of ten times and is burned in exchange for combat power.

Such evil soldiers can only prolong their lifespan through constant bloody killing, and the target of the killing must be a strong man of a certain level.

For example, if such an evil demon soldier can kill a demon-suppressing general head-on, he can definitely extend his life for several years. But if he slaughters civilians, women and children who have no power to resist, a life that can keep him alive for ten seconds will be earned.

Thousands of evil soldiers want to extend their lifespan by killing. Even if they kill the entire population of the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty, the average life of each individual will not be extended by much.

And this is where the bloodthirsty evil god’s blessings on evildoers are quite tricky. If you want to survive, you have to find a sufficient number and weight of opponents to fight with, and then you have to enter the blood domain of the evil god to participate in a grander war. .

Because the little Karami in your hometown really can't meet your survival needs.

If the future historical development of this world does not change, the Song Dynasty can reestablish the Southern Song Dynasty court after the fall of Bianliang and the capture of the second emperor, and continue to persist for more than a hundred years. Ergou guesses that it should be during the period when Bianliang fell. During this period, the lifespan of the Jin people's evil warriors came to an end.

Even though the top Jin people wanted to continue to attack the Southern Song Dynasty, they were unable to do so.

Even though he guessed the golden man's trump card, Ergou couldn't be happy.

Because he knew that no matter how well he developed in Xiangzhou, when the Jin people's evil god's blessing army came, Xiangzhou would not be able to stop him.

No matter how conceited Ergou is, he doesn't think he can cultivate tens of thousands of enemies in more than 20 years unless he uses technology to explode troops.

What? You mean developing thermal weapons?

Stop dreaming, the evil god's blessing is not a decoration. He will turn any long-range weapon into a mosquito. If you want to kill the evil god's soldiers, you have to rely on hard bridges and hard horses to chop at close range.

It can be said that any war involving followers of the bloodthirsty evil god will basically turn into the most primitive and brutal blood and flesh massacre in the end.

The followers of the Blood God are best at fighting to support war. If you want to fight against them, you must either resist their waves and then continue to consume them, leaving the followers of the Blood God unable to make ends meet.

Either use the tactic of avoiding the real and attacking the fictitious, luring the enemy with one side of the force, and attacking their back with the main force. The purpose is to bleed the followers of the evil god, so that they can't make ends meet with their killings.

And all of this requires a very important prerequisite, that is, one's own side has a strong enough logistics base.

What, you also want to play the game of fighting to support war?
wake up! The followers of the Blood God are the ancestors who feed on war, and their soldiers really get stronger with more cuts, in a literal sense.

Can you imagine that the more you kill, the stronger you become, run faster, and wield weapons more quickly and violently? Even if you suffer an absolutely fatal injury to an ordinary person, you only need to kill a few more enemies and get some blood. Is there an opponent who can recover, and such an opponent is not just one or two, but an entire legion.

They also take long-range damage!
So when Ergou realized the problem, he left Xiangzhou, where he had been operating for a long time, and ran out to find a new way out, which was to open a mine.

Of course, to open a mine, you need a "mining area", which is fertile soil enough for a large number of human beings to produce and live. Needless to say, there is no need to say more about the desert Gobi, deep mountains and old forests. What Ergou wants is a good industrial base, not a bad land where it is trapped.

It's not that there are no suitable places overseas in the Great Song Dynasty, but those places are not truly no-man's land. The followers of the evil god have long been established there.

Not to mention the large amount of manpower and material resources required for overseas colonization, as well as the troublesome time cost. If you want to achieve something, it will take a whole country to achieve it.

If Ergou had that kind of power and capital, why would he go overseas to colonize and just concentrate on development in the Song Dynasty for twenty years? Then he would just start working with the Jurchens.

Originally, Ergou was interested in the land of South Vietnam, but Meiling and his party showed him a better opportunity.

Wouldn't a new livable planet with a convenient network connection be more fragrant than a poisonous and miasmatic place like South Vietnam?
Shenyang Realm can only be said to be an unattainable dream. Although Ergou hopes that it is true, he cannot indulge in the dream.

Thanks to the Tianren clan, Ergou saw new hope.

As the once prosperous land of the Celestial Clan, Lishan Garden's basic environment is absolutely top-notch. As long as the ecology here can be restored, this place can definitely become a new starting point for mankind in the future.

The more he learned about heaven and humans, the more Ergou felt an indescribable sense of urgency.

What kind of mythological race are these people? They are obviously a high-ranking civilization in the universe, a powerful family flying among the stars.

However, this wealthy man seems to be in decline now, and has even fallen to the point of being dependent on the human race, a primary civilization that has not yet left its home planet. There must be some big secrets that he does not understand.

Although it is said that there are tall people who can hold up the sky when it falls, Ergou is not sure if there are any tall people in the current human race who have the potential to be taller than him.

He doubted that he might have to face these troublesome problems as a tall man in the future.

As the saying goes: If you don't plan for the overall situation, you can't plan for a region; if you don't plan for the eternity, you can't plan for a moment.

Ergou thought he had such ability, but he had no choice but to do his part.

The two dogs of the Phoenix Staff were determined to win, and soon he guided through words to induce the relevant memories in the mind of Shen Yanggong.

Then he discovered a very annoying problem.

It is impossible to get the Phoenix Staff by Ergou alone.

Shen Yanggong must go to pick it up in person, and it must be Shen Yanggong himself who is in good health.

Because only Shen Yanggong himself or other members of the Shenhou Celestial Beings can hide in the hiding place of the Phoenix Staff, and no one else can get in.

Ergou can only say one thing about this!

But he had no choice but to let go of Mr. Shen Yang, and said with a somewhat coy smile: "Mr. Shen Yang, please forgive Chen for being rude and neglecting Your Majesty. But I don't know if I can restore Your Excellency's body to its original state. Your Excellency, would you like to take the Phoenix Staff and use it with me?"

Unexpectedly, Lord Shen Yang laughed bitterly and said, "Chen Ergou, you don't have to bother with it! Not to mention that I can't recover from this injury, even if I recover, I won't give it to you. I am the wicked son of the Shenhou family, and I am not qualified to give the Phoenix Staff to others.

If you really want to get the scepter, you can only ask the fourth lady. Only she is qualified to get the phoenix staff and give it to others. Hahaha! After all, sooner or later you still want to marry my dear sister! "

Ergou was silent. He forced out a smile and said, "Your Majesty, is it true that you can't take out the scepter?"

Duke Shen Yang sighed and said: "If I could have access to the Phoenix Scepter, I would have taken it out and used it a long time ago. Why bother living here and living in vain!"

Ergou sneered: "I understand, it turns out you are just a watchdog!"

Mr. Shen Yang showed some anger on his face and said, "You guys, don't be so arrogant, and don't ask me to say nice things to you until the fourth lady comes here!"

Ergou smiled when he heard this and asked: "You mean that the fourth lady is willing to give me some help?"

Duke Shen Yang snorted coldly and said, "I don't know what it is about you that my sister is interested in, but she wants to marry and form an alliance with you?!"

Ergou smiled and said: "If the fourth lady doesn't mind being an equal wife, I don't mind getting married to her or anything like that."

Duke Shen Yang said angrily: "You are just daydreaming!"

Ergou's expression suddenly changed. He looked at Shen Yanggong and said, "Since the Fourth Lady is interested in a certain family, I can't refuse it directly. I'd rather spend some time with her. I just have a bad mind and I'm afraid You want to ruin my good deeds, but you can’t!”

As he spoke, Ergou slapped Duke Shen Yang on the forehead, knocking him unconscious.

Sandoku Donkey, who had been hiding nearby to watch the excitement, exclaimed: "Master, did you kill this guy?"

Ergou turned back and said with a smile: "I'm not stupid. How could I really do such a thing to make a mortal enemy? I just wanted to scare this guy a little."

Indeed, since the reproduction of heavenly beings is very difficult, the life of every orthodox heavenly being is very precious to the heavenly beings.

If Ergou really kills Shen Yanggong himself, not to mention other heavenly beings, even the Shenhou clan will definitely not turn a blind eye. When the time comes, they will not even act with the fourth lady to borrow the phoenix staff, and will not immediately swing their swords at each other. That's good.

What's more, Lishan Flower Garden is legally the old land of the Shenhou clan. If the two sides really become mortal enemies, Ergou doesn't think he can occupy this planet without the obstruction of the Shenhou clan.

To Ergou, Heavenly Man is like a certain northern big brother in later generations. He can neither offend him to death, nor be too groveling. This kind of pulling and beating routine really tests Ergou's pulling ability.

As for Shen Yanggong himself, although he cannot be killed directly, he cannot be made easy for him.

Although such a guy is not successful enough, he is definitely more than capable of failing.

At least before Ergou gets the Phoenix Staff, he must not be allowed to meet the fourth lady.

Ergou turned back to Sande Donkey and said, "If I want to go to Shenyang Cave, is it possible?"

Sande Donkey said: "This is not difficult. As long as we have the coordinates of the Web Road, we should be able to get there. What should we do with this evil son of the Shenhou clan? If we leave him alone, I'm afraid he won't survive until the sun rises the next day. ”

Ergou wondered: "I didn't kill him, so why can't he live?"

Sande Donkey smiled bitterly and said: "This guy has almost reached the end of his life, and now he has been hurt like this. I'm afraid he can't think about how he fell into the Sixth Ring."
