Obtain the divine power at the beginning

Zhao Minna hugged Luo Baozhong's left arm tightly, pressing it against her chest. Her whole body trembled. She was so moved.

With a man who loved her so much, she felt it would be worth it even if she died now.

Luo Baozhong suddenly closed his arms, put his arms around Zhao Minna, hugged her tightly in his arms, put his head on her weak shoulders, and couldn't help crying loudly. At this moment, Luo Baozhong could only cry to vent his five years of longing for Zhao Minna, and thank God for his eyes, so that he could finally see his beloved whom he had been thinking about day and night.

~

Zhao Minna couldn't help it in the end. She buried her head deeply in Luo Baozhong's chest and burst into tears.

After five years of longing for each other, the pain finally paid off.

For five years, in order to break free from the shackles of her family, Zhao Minna wandered alone in the world, searching for Luo Baozhong's whereabouts.

Without money, I would perform on the streets.

He has also been bullied by countless street thugs.

However, in order to find her beloved, Zhao Minna still went forward fearlessly without regrets, and went through many ups and downs. Five years of lovesickness, five years of wandering alone in the world, is it easy?
At this time, Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna hugged each other tightly and cried.

In an instant, Luo Baozhong's chest and Zhao Minna's shoulders were wet.

There was not a single guest in the inn who did not shed tears.

What a touching love story.

This is another timeless, wonderful and vivid love story. How can everyone not be moved when it is presented in front of them like this?

~

"Pa pa!" Shi Tianyu walked down the stairs, walked to Luo Baozhong's side, led the applause, and said loudly: "Fellow villagers, fellow martial artists, let's congratulate Luo Shaoxia and Zhao Miss for finally getting married! This dinner tonight is my treat, everyone please eat and drink as much as you want! Shopkeeper, serve the best wine and the best dishes to all the guests in the store. Let's directly help this handsome man and beautiful woman get married. Okay?"

"Great! Clap!" Applause suddenly broke out in the inn.

Cheers, cheers, and applause gathered together to form a song of blessing!

In an instant, the entire inn was filled with cheers.

In everyone's eyes, there were tears of sympathy for the unfortunate experience of Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna. Each tear also brought blessings, wishing that this pair of lovers who had gone through so much hardship would finally get married.

~

The "Longhu" Inn immediately became a sea of ​​tears, a world of applause, and a paradise of cheers.

He Xiangu and Ju Ping were also very moved and envious of Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna. They couldn't help but look at Wei Xueyan. They all hoped that Wei Xueyan would speak up and betroth them to Shi Tianyu, even if they were just two maids in the dowry!
However, Wei Xueyan turned her head away and would not say that.

Love is selfish.

Love is supreme.

Moreover, Luo Baozhong has now established an image of being very loyal to love in front of Wei Xueyan.

Therefore, Wei Xueyan would not give in.

~

At this time, Qin Zhengfang, Dudu, Yuchisong, and Luo Jinhua walked down from the second floor holding the hands of little Roger, all with tears in their eyes.

The applause finally awakened Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna who were immersed in love.

The two of them separated with an "Ouch" and looked at Shi Tianyu in a daze.

~

Shi Tianyu asked Zhao Minna with a smile: "Miss Zhao, do you still recognize me?"

Zhao Minna looked at Shi Tianyu, feeling somewhat confused. After all, she hadn't seen Shi Tianyu for many years.

So, Zhao Minna asked curiously: "You? You are? You?"

But seeing that Shi Tianyu was handsome and had an extraordinary bearing, one couldn't help but have a little more respect for him.

Luo Baozhong scratched Zhao Minna's nose with his finger and said, "Silly girl, have you forgotten the young man who saved us from the devil Yue Yaming from our hometown at the border of Sichuan and Shaanxi? How can you be ungrateful? Times have changed. Now, he is a famous general who fought against the Jin army, a meritorious official who suppressed the rebellion, an honest official who loves the people like his own children, and the supporter of the current court, Lord Shi Tianyu."

After being reminded, Zhao Minna finally remembered, jumped up excitedly, and said, "Oh, you are our savior, Shi Shaoxia? Yes, you are Shi Shaoxia, you have grown taller, I can hardly recognize you."

Luo Baozhong quickly corrected him and said affectionately: "Pig! What Young Master Shi? He is now the General of Longting, the King of Support of the current court, and an honest official who loves the people like his own children!"

"Hahahaha!"

Everyone in the inn found it funny and started laughing.

Zhao Minna made mistakes repeatedly and felt very embarrassed. Her face flushed red. She quickly bowed to Shi Tianyu, bowed her willow waist and said, "This?! This, I'm sorry, I pay my respects to Lord Shi."

~

The guests in the inn finally came to their senses and finally heard clearly that the young man in brocade clothes in front of them was actually the world-famous Shi Tianyu. So, the crowd immediately became excited and started to discuss: "This kid is the King of Backers?"

"What? This person is so young and has become a prince?"

"Prince Shi is so handsome! Does he have a princess? My daughter!"

"Go away, you've only drunk half a liang of wine and you're talking nonsense again. Just now you said you would marry your daughter to Zhang San!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Don't laugh, Lord Shi is an honest and kind official who loves his people like his own children!"

"Yes! Be serious! Lord Shi is an honest and good official! Come on, everyone, shout with me, Huang Sha wears golden armor after a hundred battles, and Shi Lang has a brilliant plan to bring peace to the world! Huang Sha wears golden armor after a hundred battles, and Shi Lang has a brilliant plan to bring peace to the world!"

"Yellow sand wears golden armor after a hundred battles, Shi Lang's clever plan brings peace to the world!"

Suddenly, everyone in the inn raised their fists and shouted loudly.

When the shouting first started, people's voices varied.

Gradually, everyone shouted in unison, and the shouts became more and more powerful.

~

Wei Xueyan felt complicated again when she saw this scene.

Sometimes, Wei Xueyan felt jealous and really wanted to leave Shi Tianyu.

But now, seeing that Shi Tianyu is so popular among the people, and feeling that Shi Tianyu is very cute and amazing, I really can't bear to leave him.

~

Shi Tianyu said to Zhao Minna, "Miss Zhao, no matter how unpredictable the world is, Brother Luo is the brother I recognize for my whole life. You will soon become Mrs. Luo, so you don't have to be polite. Today, I will make the decision for Brother Luo and prepare this wedding for him. Ask the shopkeeper to find you a room upstairs and ask the waiter to bring you water for a bath and change clothes."

After that, he turned around and said, "Fellow villagers, I want you all to be witnesses. Let's hold this wedding for Luo Shaoxia and Zhao Miss together and vacate the best guest room in the inn. Now, everyone go and make the arrangements, and I will be responsible for paying.

I will leave two gold ingots here with the shopkeeper. Everyone go out to hire a sedan chair and find a tailor to make a bright red wedding gown. Add a price and gather the best tailors in the city to make the wedding gown. Later, everyone will come back to the inn to ask the shopkeeper for the bill. Anyway, I will cover all the food and accommodation expenses for today and tomorrow, okay?"

~

"Okay! Bang bang!"

All the guests cheered loudly and went out laughing to buy things for Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna's wedding. Although it was hasty, money makes the world go round, and many hands make light work, so things could be done quickly.

~

When the shopkeeper saw the two big gold ingots on the counter, he was so happy that his face was full of tears. He quickly told the cook to prepare new dishes. Upon hearing the news, the shopkeeper's wife hurried over, held the two big gold ingots in front of her chest, and hugged them tightly.

Luo Baozhong turned to Shi Tianyu and said, "My dear nephew Chu Feng, you are making such a fuss, isn't it too much of a scene?"

His handsome face flushed red, and he felt very embarrassed.

Wei Xueyan, He Xiangu and Ju Ping hurried down the stairs, clasped their fists and bowed to congratulate Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna.

Shi Tianyu pointed at Wei Xueyan and said to Luo Baozhong: "This is Wei Xueyan, the wife of King Kaoshan! You know her. However, her status is different now. She is now Madam Shi, ranking after me."

Hahahaha! Qin Zhengfang, Dudu and others burst into laughter.

~

Luo Baozhong hurriedly clasped his hands and bowed to Wei Xueyan.

Having fought side by side with Wei Xueyan before, he is not unfamiliar with Wei Xueyan, nor does he dislike Wei Xueyan at all.

On the contrary, I feel that Wei Xueyan is a good person, beautiful, kind-hearted, and very talented. She used to be the commander of the Jinyiwei, who was admired by everyone. She is no worse than any prince. Luo Baozhong had already seen that Wei Xueyan would be with Shi Tianyu.

Therefore, when Shi Tianyu introduced Wei Xueyan as his wife, Luo Baozhong was not surprised at all.

Qin Zhengfang, Dudu, Yuchisong and others came over reluctantly, clasped their fists and bowed to Wei Xueyan, and bowed slightly to her.

~

Luo Jinhua was, after all, a village woman, and didn't know the big picture. She said nervously to Wei Xueyan's face, "There are wanted warrants for the princess everywhere! Wait, wait, wait." She wanted to tell Wei Xueyan not to attend the wedding, but she couldn't say it out loud.

Wei Xueyan was very annoyed when she heard this, but after all, she was a princess and had served as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard for seven years. She knew the general situation and had to give face to Shi Tianyu and Luo Baozhong in public, so she didn't say anything.

Shi Tianyu laughed and said, "It's okay. I'm here. Who dares to move? I'll sue him for attacking an official of the imperial court and sentence him to death!" Haha! Everyone laughed again and felt relieved.

~

Shi Tianyu looked sideways, then turned around and found that he was the only one left in the store, so he said, "Tomorrow, let's go back to Xiliang with me. I have built a small West Lake in Xiliang. The moat of New Ice City is also modeled after the moat of Xiangyang City, and is 280 meters wide. At present, the population under my rule has reached more than 4 million, and New Ice City alone can accommodate more than 1 million people. Next, New Ice City will be expanded until it can accommodate 10 million people.

Right now, the Central Plains will be in chaos. In Shaanxi, the drought may continue this year, so there will still be chaos.

Let's build the New Ice City together and attract people here. There will definitely be war in Xiliang. The war will start at the end of spring. We must seize the opportunity to expand our territory. This is where we can settle down. Tonight, Baodi is getting married and will become a father in the future. With so many children, he must have a home and cannot wander around! Right?"

~

Luo Baozhong said cheerfully: "Okay! For the sake of my beloved and my children, I will fight to the death!"

Before the wedding night, the topic of child was brought up. Zhao Minna was so embarrassed that she hid behind Luo Baozhong.

After a while, the guests came back one after another to hold the wedding for Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna.

Shi Tianyu held a grand banquet and, together with many guests, congratulated Zhao Minna on returning to Luo Baozhong.

Many guests were so excited to have a meal and a drink with the approachable prince that many of them got drunk.

However, Shi Tianyu instructed the shopkeeper to let the guests drink and make noise, and they could do whatever they wanted as long as no one was killed.

As for the possibility of damaging some things, that's no problem, I will be responsible for compensating for it.

This makes the atmosphere even more lively.

Shi Tianyu just took a few sips of wine to liven up the atmosphere, then led Wei Xueyan, He Xiangu, Ju Ping and his own BMW dog into the system space. Then, Shi Tianyu flew out and flew to the Old Huoyan Village base in Shanxi, and then flew back to the system space to pick up Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan, Shi Jiahan and several other children as well as Hu Sanniang to visit the Old Huoyan Village base.

~

Hu Sanniang never thought that her husband was so remarkable and he was able to maintain more than 300,000 soldiers in these deep mountains and forests.

After two hours of visiting, Shi Tianyu sent Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan and Shi Jiahan back to the system space and handed them over to Rouhui. Then, Shi Tianyu came out to live with Hu Sanniang in the cave, poured out a pill of "Ni Qiankun" for Hu Sanniang to eat, and then hugged Hu Sanniang and rolled into the bed happily, feeding Hu Sanniang well.

Although Wei Xueyan kept a close eye on him, Shi Tianyu had a large family and wealth, so he always had the opportunity to be with other ladies.

~

Early the next morning.

Shi Tianyu then brought the 200,000 soldiers under Hu Sanniang and Zhu Shuilong to the large garden of the system space, and let Hu Sanniang be responsible for training these 200,000 soldiers, giving Hu Sanniang the opportunity to display her military talent.

Shi Tianyu returned to the Flame Village and asked Zhu Shuilong to leave 100,000 soldiers and horses to continue to stay in the Flame Village to guard this base. He also had to recruit soldiers and wait patiently for the opportunity.

After Shi Tianyu repeatedly reminded Zhu Shuilong, he gave Zhu Shuilong and Qian Qilan each a "Ni Qiankun".

Zhu Shuilong and Qian Qilan were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears, and they thanked Shi Tianyu repeatedly.

Last time, after the couple ate a pill of "Ni Qiankun", their power increased greatly. They knew that their son-in-law gave them two magic pills.

The couple hurried to eat "Ni Qiankun" and then went to sleep in each other's arms.

~

Then, Shi Tianyu flew back to the "Longhu" Inn in Kaifeng Prefecture. Seeing that nothing was wrong, he walked into locker No. 19 at the easternmost end of the Ice and Fire Island in the system space, took out two "Blood Bodhi" from the demon-absorbing bottle and handed them to Wei Xueyan.

"Haha!" Wei Xueyan suddenly smiled brightly, she finally got the "Blood Bodhi".

Immediately, she took two "blood bodhi" pills with warm water, and felt that the effect of this "blood bodhi" was better than that of the clam dragon meat. Suddenly, Wei Xueyan felt hot all over and became manic, thinking about sleeping with Shi Tianyu. In this way, Shi Tianyu also calmed Wei Xueyan's restless mood, hugged Wei Xueyan and rolled into the bed, intoxicated, and continued to enjoy their honeymoon.

~

Three days later, early in the morning, the sunlight came in through the window screen.

Zhao Minna lay on Luo Baozhong's strong chest, stroking his face with her hands. Just as she was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.

The two of them quickly got up, washed up, and returned to the team to abide by discipline.

The sunshine is gentle and kind, and it makes people feel warm all over.

Shi Tianyu had already finished breakfast and was strolling in the courtyard of the inn with Wei Xueyan, thinking about how to expand the territory in Xiliang.

After breakfast, Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna came to the courtyard and handed Shi Tianyu Yuan Weiqing's "Yuan's Qingping Sword Manual" and Tian Lufeng's "Seven Evils Sword Manual", as well as a Liaodong military map, and said that this was when they were suppressing the rebellion in Sichuan last time. Yuan Weiqing and Tian Lufeng were worried that they would die in the battle, so they entrusted Luo Baozhong to give the sword and sword manuals to Shi Tianyu.

Luo Baozhong told Shi Tianyu that Tian Lufeng and Yuan Weiqing once hated Shi Tianyu very much.

However, after experiencing a battle to quell the rebellion, Tian Lufeng and Yuan Weiqing finally realized that Shi Tianyu was a loyal and capable minister of the Ming Dynasty court, an honest and good official, and a rare and fierce general. They were also afraid of dying in the battlefield, so they gave the sword and knife manuals and a military map of Liaodong to Luo Baozhong in advance, and entrusted Luo Baozhong to give them to Shi Tianyu.

Shi Tianyu put away the sword and knife manuals and the map, and led everyone into locker No. 19 on the Ice and Fire Island in the system space.

This is the place where the three beauties Wei Xueyan, He Xiangu and Juping relax.

However, in order to improve the relationship between Wei Xueyan and Qin Zhengfang and others, Shi Tianyu brought Qin Zhengfang, Dudu, Yuchisong, Luo Jinhua, Luo Baozhong, Zhao Minna and others here, which was a good intention.

Then, Shi Tianyu took out a few bottles of Feitian wine and asked Wei Xueyan, He Xiangu and Juping to continue to congratulate Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna on their wedding. After that, Shi Tianyu flew out of the system space and directly returned to the New Ice City in the northwest on the "Somersault Cloud".

It is still freezing cold here in the northwest, and the mountains are covered with snow.

However, under the governance of veteran bureaucrats such as Dai Kun, He Baofu, Liu Cong, and Lu Yuan, the areas of Xinbingcheng, Liangzhou, and Ganzhou were built very well this time. After all, this area was poor and there was not much money to be made.

Moreover, Dai Kun's daughter Dai Ruyi has already given birth to two sons for Shi Tianyu, and is now pregnant with her third child.

It was impossible for Dai Kun to rebel against Shi Tianyu, so he could only receive double salary, lead a group of officials, and work hard for Shi Tianyu.

~

At this time, Wang Er in Shaanxi had already led his troops in uprising, and the news had already reached Xiliang.

Shi Tianyu led Wei Xueyan, He Xiangu, Ju Ping, Luo Baozhong, Zhao Minna, Liu Rufei, Xi Fangzhi, Zhang Hui and Helan Minyue out, and then led Rouhui, Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan, Shi Jiahan, Mu Qing, Ruxue, Wodan and others out. Wei Xueyan told Shi Tianyu on her wedding night that from the moment she married him, Shi Tianyu would not allow other wives to appear in front of Wei Xueyan, but now, Shi Tianyu must let all his wives appear.

Because Helan Minyue is in charge of the Tiandihui and the Ming Cult.

All the news about the Tiandihui in the world would be gathered here by Helan Minyue.

After analysis by Helan Minyue, it was reported to Shi Tianyu.

Ganzhou, Liangzhou and Xinbingcheng are the old bases of Liu Rufei, Xifangzhi and Zhang Hui. Most of the generals here were promoted by Liu Rufei, Xifangzhi and Zhang Hui. The three beauties are more familiar with the soldiers here.

Rouhui was going to teach Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan and Shi Jiahan how to read, write and practice martial arts, and also help Shi Tianyu write articles.

Wodan was supposed to copy official documents and perform official duties for Shi Tianyuyu.

Ruxue and Mu Qing need to assist Liu Rufei and Helan Minyue in handling intelligence and city defense affairs.

However, when Wei Xueyan saw the many Shi ladies appear, she became jealous and angrily accused Shi Tianyu of violating her ban. She rode away angrily. He Xiangu and Juping hurriedly rode to chase after him.

~

The situation was urgent and Shi Tianyu was unable to chase after them, so he asked Helan Minyue to pay attention to them through the disciples of the Tiandihui branches all over the world.

Helan Minyue had no time to care about the affairs between her husband and Wei Xueyan. It was important for her to report intelligence to Shi Tianyu and expand her territory.

At dusk on the fifteenth day of the second lunar month, the sky was as red as blood.

In Qin, on a ridge outside Chengcheng County, hundreds of ragged farmers gathered, all with their faces painted black, holding various weapons such as hoes, sickles, flails, kitchen knives, and pig-killing knives.

With a feeling of nervousness and excitement, they rose up under the leadership of Wang Er, a burly martial artist from Baishui County, drove away the yamen runners, killed the wealthy families in the villages, and robbed food to feed the common people in order to rally the people's hearts.

Before this, the Qin area was already full of "thieves".

However, they were limited to the countryside, where they robbed houses, killed the rich and helped the poor, and no one dared to attack the county town directly.

Now, after Wang Er seized Chengcheng County, he killed officials and rebelled, just like a spark, which suddenly ignited the silent volcano of Qin. At this time, Qin included the Xingdusi of Shaanxi, which was very vast, and also included Suzhou Guard in Jiuquan, Xining Guard in Huangzhong, and Lanzhou Guard in Jincheng. By the end of the Wanli period, the population of the province was about 12 million, living in this fertile land.

However, the good natural conditions did not bring prosperity to the people, but made them struggle in misery. Because the Zhu family emperor successively enfeoffed eight princes in Shaanxi, three of them were later removed because of the extinction of the heir.

However, by the end of the Wanli period, there were still five vassal kings.

Among them, the King of Qin was enfeoffed in Xi'an.

Prince Qing was enfeoffed in Yinchuan.

Prince Su was enfeoffed in Lanzhou.

King of Han was granted the fiefdom of Pingliang.

King Rui was granted the title of King of Hanzhong.

These five princes seized a huge number of royal "estates" under various pretexts.

The farmers on the farm were transformed from self-employed farmers into serfs of the royal palace.

All income from the farm belonged to the royal palace, and the palace did not have to pay a single cent of tax to the court.

Within the jurisdiction of Xi'an Prefecture alone, the Qin Palace occupied at least 8,900 hectares of fertile farmland.

One hectare is equal to one hundred acres.

~

However, within the jurisdiction of Guyuan Prefecture in Pingliang Prefecture, there are only more than 1,300 hectares of farmland owned by the people.

However, the farmland occupied by the royal palace amounted to tens of thousands of hectares.

In order to raise military funds for the war against Jin, Emperor Wanli ordered an additional levy of "Liao salary".

After several additional increases, by the Tianqi period, the levy had risen to nine cents per mu.

Because the "Liao salary" was levied based on the number of acres of land.

The population of Qin was not large, but because of the large number of acres of land, the "Liao salary" it received was as high as 260,000 taels of silver each year, even exceeding that of the wealthy Nanzhili.

In fact, a considerable portion of the farmland in Qin has fallen into the hands of the royal palace.

The remaining people were forced to share the entire "Liao salary", and the burden on the people was greatly increased.

In addition, government officials and clerks at all levels manipulated the situation and arbitrarily imposed additional taxes, which eventually made it impossible for the farmers in Qin to survive.

~

Qin was an important military town of the Ming Dynasty and the frontline area against the Mongolian tribes.

Among the so-called "Nine Border Cities" of the Ming Dynasty, the four important military towns of Yulin, Guyuan, Ningxia and Gansu are all located in Shaanxi.

Most of the Ming Dynasty's elite soldiers and generals came from Qin.

However, the imperial court treated the border troops in Qin like pigs and dogs and did not regard them as human beings at all.

The salaries of the border troops had been in arrears for a long time, and the salaries were even used to build the three main halls.

In the year when Wang Er led his troops to rebel and kill officials, the imperial court owed the border troops in Qin more than 159,000 taels of silver.

Forced by life, the border soldiers had no choice but to sell their clothes first and then their weapons.

Then, he sold his children, his daughters, and his wife, until he finally begged on the streets and died tragically.

Many people were unwilling to just wait for death, so they took up arms, robbed houses, killed the rich and helped the poor, and thus became thieves.

Since the end of the Wanli period, the "Little Ice Age" climate has intensified, and natural disasters have occurred frequently in Qin, especially successive years of drought, which have caused an almost complete collapse of agricultural production, leaving thousands of miles of barren land and no harvest.

The starving people first ate leaves and grass roots. When all the leaves and grass roots were gone, they began to eat Guanyin soil, and finally began to eat people.

People who eat human flesh will suffer redness and swelling on their faces, internal heat and death within a few days.

In the face of such a severe famine, the imperial court not only did not provide any relief, but instead demanded the collection of taxes and "Liao tribute" in a hurry.

~

This spring, affected by continuous droughts, a large-scale famine broke out again in Qin.

Thousands of hungry people could not wait for the relief from the imperial court, but were unwilling to die of starvation, so they followed Wang Er's example, raised the flag of rebellion, killed officials and robbed food. At this time, there was a horse dealer named Gao Yingxiang in Ansai County, who was good at riding and shooting, had extraordinary physical strength, was righteous and indifferent to money, and was quite famous in the local area. In such a year of great disaster, Gao Yingxiang raised his arms and called himself "King of Rebellion".

Thousands of hungry people soon gathered under his command.

~

There was a farmer named Wang Zishun in Yichuan County.

Wang Zishun owed high-interest loans to landlords and local gentry and was unable to repay them. He was also being forced to pay taxes by the government. In anger, he raised the flag of rebellion, calling himself "Zuo Guazi", and his team quickly grew larger.

Several nearby armed groups of hungry people, including the Miao Mei, Big Red Wolf, Feishan Tiger, etc., all came under the command of Wang Zishun.

~

There was a scholar named Zhao Sheng in Qingjian County. Just because he lit a lamp to read in the temple every night, his enemies slandered him for reading military books at night and plotting rebellion. In desperation, Zhao Sheng had to gather a crowd to rebel and called himself "the lamp lighter."

Their tribe is active in the mountainous area in the eastern part of Qingjian County.

There was a small businessman named Zhang Cunmeng in Luochuan County. Seeing that there were starving people everywhere and bones covering the fields in the years of disaster, and the government was still demanding taxes, Zhang Cunmeng gathered the villagers, raised the banner of "not getting involved in the mud", organized a movement to resist grain and taxes, and killed the rich to help the poor.

The most powerful person is Wang Jiayin from Fugu County.

~

Wang Jiayin was originally a poor farmer in Fugu County.

Because Wang Jiayin's family had no land and could not survive, he had to run to the border camp in Yulin Zhending and become a border soldier.

As a result, the imperial court continued to delay military pay for a long time. Wang Jiayin could no longer survive and was forced to flee back to his hometown and launch an uprising.

Since he was born a soldier and had received special military training, his martial arts and military literacy were much better than those of ordinary hungry people. Therefore, he quickly became famous in Yan'an Prefecture where "thieves" were numerous.

Even Wang Er, the first "rebel boss" who killed officials and started an uprising, came to join him with his men.

In this way, the two of them formed a force of as many as five or six thousand people.

They used the Huanglong Mountain area at the junction of Yan'an Prefecture and Qingyang Prefecture as their base, and used the favorable terrain to resist the encirclement and suppression of the government troops, leaving the government troops helpless. In this way, peasants rebelled, merchants rebelled, scholars rebelled, and even soldiers rebelled.

Now, the entire Qin area has shown a situation of "nationalized rebellion".

The local officials in Qin were all terrified and unable to sleep well.

Officials with connections all tried to find ways to be transferred.

Officials who had no connections had no choice but to stick to their posts and, at the same time, constantly appeal to the court for help.

Shaanxi Governor Hu Tingyan submitted a memorial to Zhu Youjian, stating that "in Luochuan, Chunhua, Sanshui, Lueyang, Qingshui, Chengxian, Yijun, Zhongbu, Shiquan, Yichuan, Suide, Jiazhou, Yaozhou, Jingning, Tongguan, Yangpingguan, Jinsuoguan and other places, the bandits are plundering at will."

~

However, at this time, Zhu Youjian had no intention of caring about the lives of the starving people in Qin.

Restoring Liaodong and defeating the Jin soldiers were Zhu Youjian’s priorities.

In order to ensure the realization of Yuan Chonghuan's grand plan of "pacifying Liaoning in five years", Zhu Youjian had to give priority to ensuring the Ningjin direction with resources.

As for the rebels in Qin, leave it to the local officials to suppress them.

Because the area under Hu Tingyan's jurisdiction was too wide.

Therefore, Hu Tingyan, who was blocked by heavy snow and cut off from the news, did not know that Ganzhou and Liangzhou were already in the hands of Shi Tianyu.

Therefore, in his memorial to Zhu Youjian, he did not mention the situation of King Kaoshan Shi Tianyu and King Xiliang Zhu Junkai.

~

Through the establishment of the Nine Frontiers, the Ming court formed a stable border stretching from the Yalu River in the east to Jiayuguan in the west, which played a great role in resisting the invasion of the Mongolian tribes. However, since the reign of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, the Nine Frontiers began to gradually weaken, and a large number of soldiers sent from the inland to the Nine Frontiers fled. Moreover, the border military farms were destroyed and constantly occupied.

The decline in food supply and soldiers' combat effectiveness led to the decline in the defense capabilities of the Nine Frontiers.

In order to maintain the defense line, the Ming court had to make large financial allocations.

Originally a defensive battle line, it now placed a heavy financial burden on the Ming court.

Shi Tianyu seized the opportunity and asked Qin Zhengfang, Luo Jinhua and Xiao Luojie to cooperate with Yang Song and Master Liaoran to guard Ganzhou.

By the way, let little Roger learn some practical military knowledge.

~

Then, Shi Tianyu asked the three beauties Xiangxiang, Yiyi and Fanfan to ride cranes to escort the five beauties Shen Zhenzhen, Mu Qing, Huiwei, Rouhui and Wodan and the three children Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan and Shi Jiahan to fly to Xining, Biandukou Pass, Jiayu Pass, Dunhuang, Yumen Pass and Yangguan respectively, and cooperate with the subsequent armies to capture these important city passes.

Xifanghui and Yang Feng were ordered to lead 20,000 infantry and cavalry to attack Xining in the south. In advance, the three beauties Xiangxiang, Yiyi and Fanfan rode cranes to escort the five beauties Shen Zhenzhen, Mu Qing, Huiwei, Rouhui and Wodan and the three children Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan and Shi Jiahan. They cooperated with the infantry and cavalry led by Xifanghui and Yang Feng and quickly captured Xining.

Afterwards, Xi Fanghui and Yang Feng led their troops to garrison Xining.

~

Shi Tianyu also ordered Dudu, Yuchisong, Luo Baozhong, and Zhao Minna to lead 20,000 infantry and cavalry to control the Biandu Pass.

This pass is located at the Biandukou Pass in the Qilian Mountains.

The mountain pass is a canyon that cuts the Qilian Mountains in half.

The riverbed is cut down and the Tongziba River flows out from it, making the situation particularly dangerous.

This is the main thoroughfare from Ganzhou to Xining, an extremely important transportation bottleneck.

This is also the only passage from the southern route of the ancient Silk Road in Gansu Town to the Hexi Corridor.

During the Western Han Dynasty, the imperial court stationed a commander to protect the Qiang here.

Xiangxiang, Yiyi and Fanfan drove cranes to escort Shen Zhenzhen, Mu Qing, Huiwei, Rouhui and Wodan and Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan and Shi Jiahan to sneak into the pass in advance, and cooperated with Dudu, Yuchisong, Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna to quickly capture Biandukou Pass. Afterwards, Luo Baozhong and Zhao Minna led their troops to guard Biandukou Pass.

~

Then, Shi Tianyu ordered Tian Lufeng and Yuan Weiqing to lead 20,000 infantry and cavalry, and with the help of Xiangxiang, Yiyi, and Fanfan, the three beauties riding cranes, escorting Shen Zhenzhen, Mu Qing, Huiwei, Rouhui, and Wodan, and the three children Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan, and Shi Jiahan, they quickly captured Dunhuang. Afterwards, Tian Lufeng and Yuan Weiqing led their troops to guard Dunhuang.

Then, Shi Tianyu ordered Dudu and Yuchisong to lead 20,000 infantry and cavalry to attack Yumen Pass. With the help of Xiangxiang, Yiyi and Fanfan, who rode cranes to escort Shen Zhenzhen, Mu Qing, Huiwei, Rouhui and Wodan, and Zhu Junkai, Shi Haichuan and Shi Jiahan, they quickly captured Yumen Pass. Afterwards, Dudu and Yuchisong were responsible for leading their troops to guard Yumen Pass.

Afterwards, Hu Sanniang was responsible for leading the troops to guard Yangguan Pass.

In this way, in less than half a month, by keeping the news secret and cooperating internally and externally, Shi Tianyu occupied the entire territory from Liangzhou to the northwest and southwest, and his territory was expanded several times.

A touch of sunset covered Mount Song with a veil.

At the foot of Mount Shaoshi, there was a commotion in the Beggars' Sect headquarters. The leaders and disciples of many martial arts sects in the world, as well as the leaders and chiefs of some underworld gangs, brought their capable men, dry food and drinks, and came to the Beggars' Sect headquarters one after another. They gathered together and discussed how to go to Xiliang to assassinate Shi Tianyu and Wei Xueyan and avenge the martial artists who had died in the previous battle.

The bloody murders that happened in the martial arts world seven years ago, such as Feima Village, Yinma Village, Shima Village, and Wulian Gang, were brought back to the tattered desk.

Han Fu, the head of Songshan Sect, clasped his hands, bowed, and said with a sob: "Lei Ting and Qi Guandi are rising stars in the martial arts world who grew up under my watch. They died tragically at the hands of the Stone Demon. Han swears that I will immediately unite with the Five Mountains Sword Sects to sacrifice the spirits of Lei Ting and Qi Guandi, the two rising stars in the martial arts world, by beheading the Stone Demon and Wei Yao. Once I obtain the treasure map of the skin on the back of the Stone Demon, I will share it with all the martial artists in the world. Wei Zhongxian plundered the people's blood and sweat and had countless wealth. Once I seize Wei Yao's money, Han will also distribute it to the poor in the world."

"it is good!"

"Clap!"

In the thatched hut of the Beggars' Sect's headquarters, thunderous applause and thunderous cheers suddenly rang out.

The head of Hengshan Sect, Tie Bing, stood up angrily and said loudly, "I now completely understand that Shi Mo and Wei Yao were the executioners of the series of bloody cases in the martial arts world. The two of them are now married, and this is the best proof. The martial arts world has always been deceived by Shi Mo's reputation as an honest and good official. Now, it can be proved that Shi Mo is the biggest liar in the world, the biggest fame seeker."

Song Chaogang, the leader of the Taishan Sect, also stood up suddenly and raised his arms to shout in agreement.

Seeing that Master Ruoran, the head of Hengshan Sect, was silent, Han Fu walked up to her and asked, "Master, what do you think?"

Nun Ruoran made her opinion clear and said calmly, "I think that the little thief named Shi is good at martial arts, cunning and resourceful, and now he has a large army under his command, and he has generals like Qin Zhengfang, Luo Baozhong, Po Chou and Xifanghui under his command. Killing the Stone Demon is not an easy task. We have to think of another foolproof plan." Her senior sister, Nun Liangran, has now returned to Yang Song's side.

Therefore, she also had to consider the personal safety of her senior sister.
