my unparalleled way

Chapter 293 Entering Qiansong
When Rong Yu and Tang Xiaozhi met, Lin Si had already traveled four to five thousand miles deep into the hinterland of Southern Qi.

After the fierce fight that night in Xihou's residence, both Nan Qi and Qing Chuan also understood that killing Yue Luo Ning had become an extravagant hope.

As a result, the Southern Qi border, which had been stockpiled and searched by heavy troops, has once again returned to its former appearance.

Naturally, this kind of guard strength cannot stop Lin Si, Mu Zheping, and Xie Shaoying from entering.

After entering the Southern Qi Kingdom without any surprises or dangers, Lin Si felt completely out of danger.

Although in Tianhe, Lin Si was wanted by the whole country, but in Southern Qi, this was not the case.

It's just a simple disguise, and no one here knows them anymore.

This way, no one will stop them on the way forward, and no one will spy on them around.

The six countries in the southeast belong to the marginal zone in the Cangluo Continent.However, Southern Qi, because it is located in the northwest of the other Qingchuan Yue Kingdoms and is relatively close to the central area of ​​the mainland, has instead become the strongest country among the six southeastern countries.

Along the way, Lin Si and the others also saw this.

Compared with the Moon Kingdom, the city here is larger, the buildings here are more complex and exquisite, the caravans passing by here are more numerous, and the population here is denser than that of the Moon Kingdom.

But this is only compared with ordinary cities in Yue Kingdom. As for the Academy City, it is an anomaly.

Along the way, the practitioners the three of them met were more common than those in Yue Kingdom.

When passing through a city named 'Liangcheng', Lin Si finally couldn't help asking: "The Southern Qi is indeed stronger than the Yue Kingdom, why hasn't it been able to unify the six southeastern countries?"

The object of his question was naturally Xie Shaoying.

Although Xie Shaoying doesn't like military affairs, but he is a child of a family after all, and he knows more than Lin Si after being influenced by his ears and eyes since he was a child.

"Although Southern Qi is strong, it is not much stronger than Yue Kingdom Qingchuan. If you want to unify the six countries, that is still far away!" Sitting on horseback, Xie Shaoying calmly replied even when passing by the bustling streets.

He was born in Qian Song Dynasty, and Qian Song Dynasty was only a state in Southern Qi Dynasty 200 years ago, so he naturally has a good understanding of this.

"But at least he can expand his territory!" Lin Si casually said while looking around.

Mu Zheping said with a smile: "The territory of Southern Qi should have expanded to its limit. The Qianlan Kingdom to the west and the Purple Star Kingdom to the north are both stronger than them. They should be wary of the invasion of these two countries."

Xie Shaoying nodded and said: "That's right, in order to defend the two countries, the main forces of the Southern Qi Dynasty are actually located in the west and north. And this is the reason why our Qian Song Dynasty has not been attacked by the Southern Qi Dynasty. If Qian Song Dynasty perishes, then Southern Qi will also face the invasion of the grassland country in the southwest."

Although he is from Qiansong, his judgment of the situation is calm enough, and he does not feel that Tianhe is strong like Tianhe people, and no foreign enemies dare to invade.

Speaking of the fact that Qian Song was just trying to survive in the cracks, his expression remained the same.

"How strong is the Prairie Country? Isn't Nan Qi their opponent?" Lin Si asked curiously.

He often heard the name Prairie Country, and it seemed that Yue Country Qiansong had been deeply poisoned by this nomadic country, and most of the wars were started by them.

What he felt was that this country seemed to be a cancer, and it would be great if it could be completely wiped out.

In the past, he would naturally not have such thoughts. After all, he would not consider such important national affairs at that time, and he may not be from the Yue Kingdom. If the Yue Kingdom is destroyed, he will go to other countries at worst.

But now after he became sworn brothers with Yue Luoning and Xie Shaoying, his thoughts gradually began to change.

Yue Luoning is the prince of Yue, and Xie Shaoying is the son of General Qian Song.

If Yue Kingdom and Qian Song were wiped out by the Prairie Kingdom, what would they do?
Hearing his question, Xie Shaoying shook her head and said: "The grassland country should not be the opponent of Nan Qi. In terms of national power, the grassland people can't compare with Nan Qi. No matter the population or the number of practitioners, they can't compare with Nan Qi. As for the degree of wealth , the Prairie Country can’t even compare to our Qian Song Dynasty.”

"Then why didn't Nanqi destroy the grassland country?"

"Although the national strength of the grassland country is not as strong as that of Southern Qi, their army's combat capability is not weak! Haven't you heard a saying?"

Lin Si asked enthusiastically, "What do you say?"

"Nomadic, fishing and hunting peoples are often more bloody and aggressive than farming peoples, and their soldiers are often braver and better at fighting. The light cavalry of the grassland people and the mountain soldiers of the Tianhe people are the best in the six southeastern countries. It's just that the Tianhe area is too small and the population is too small."

"Is there still such a theory?" Lin Si was stunned: "But a country like Yueguo in Southern Qi should have many iron-blooded warriors, right?"

"Of course there is. We Qian Song have fought against the Prairie Country for years, and our soldiers are also brave and fearless. But Qian Song is too small after all, and the entire Prairie Country is full of people who control strings, so it is extremely difficult to deal with."

"Can't Yue Kingdom and Southern Qi Qiansong join forces to completely wipe out the Prairie Kingdom?"

"It's not easy to destroy them. In history, the Southern Qi Dynasty and the Moon Kingdom have both invaded the hinterland of the grassland country. But they have a vast territory and no city supplies. When wars happen, hundreds of miles are often deserted, and hundreds of thousands of troops penetrate thousands of miles. What to eat? What else can I do except return it?"

"What do the prairie people eat?"

"They herd for a living, live by water and grass, and are used to living in no fixed place. When there is a war, they will stay away from it, and when the war is over, they will return to the original place, and they violate our border from time to time, which is extremely difficult."

He paused and added: "What's more, it is extremely difficult to penetrate their hinterland. In a large plain area, if you compete with the light cavalry of the prairie people, the Southern Qi and Yue Kingdom will probably be at a disadvantage. Because the opponent's light cavalry In the open area, they can come and go like the wind, and their riding and archery skills are far superior to ours. In fact, not only us, but also the Qianlan Kingdom in the north of the grassland country, which is stronger than the Southern Qi, is also their hunting target."

Hearing Xie Shaoying's description, Lin Si finally understood the difficulty of the grassland country.

They are too mobile, fight if they can beat, and retreat if they can't.Their territory is vast, their hinterland is extremely deep, and they have no supplies. If other countries invade, they will only face the danger of being alone.

Therefore, although they are not the strongest in the southeast, they are often the only ones who take the initiative to fight others.

Mu Zheping interjected and asked, "Why don't countries like Yueguo and Qianlan build their cities step by step and encroach on the territory of the grassland country? In this way, one day, they will lose their original space."

Xie Shaoying smiled wryly: "The land in the grassland country is not suitable for farming, and our people migrated there, and it is difficult to survive. Their soil is very loose and the bricks are very loose. How can they build a city? Otherwise, they will not have only one city themselves."

"So that's how it is." The two of Lin Mu suddenly realized.

"It's really not easy for you to stop the invasion of the grassland country!" Lin Si sighed sincerely.

Qian Song was originally just a state in Southern Qi, and he had just learned about the power of the grassland country.Qian Song was able to block the mighty grassland for 200 years, in his opinion, it was really not easy.

"You can't say that. After all, you Yueguo and Ganlan are more bordering on the grassland. The border between us Qiansong and the grassland is only a thousand miles away. Although the wars are numerous, they are mostly small groups fighting, and big battles are rare. .”

Only then did Lin Si suddenly realize that before this, he had always thought that Qiansong was a country full of wars, and everyone lived in dire straits.

Now it seems that I thought it was wrong.

The three of them gradually left Liangcheng, and the journey westward was still uneventful.

Seven days later, the three of them finally crossed the Southern Qi and entered the Qiansong Kingdom.

If it wasn't for Xie Shaoying's reminder, Lin Si wouldn't even feel that he had entered another country.

The border between Qian Song Dynasty and Southern Qi Dynasty was not heavily guarded by troops, and the exchanges between the two countries were extremely frequent.

After all, they were originally a family.

The architectural style and landforms of the Qian Song Dynasty are the same as those of the Southern Qi Dynasty, and it is not because of the grassland country that people are in a state of intense preparations for war every day, nor are all the people all soldiers.

But Lin Si still found a slight difference.

Compared with people from Qiansong, people from other countries seem to be more laid back.

In the villages, towns and cities that I passed along the way, the people of Qian Song Dynasty I saw were all busy with their own affairs, and few of them sat idle.

There are even fewer restaurants and tea shops in the city here than in other countries.

In Dingchuan City, the capital of the Qiansong Kingdom, Lin Si and Mu Zheping and Xie Shaoying rode side by side on the wide and clean street, he looked around curiously.

Even though it was broad daylight, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and it looked quite deserted, not like the capital of a country at all.

And when Xie Shaoying entered the city, there was no great momentum at all.

Even though he is the son of General Xie Chi, even though he is the most talented practitioner of Qian Song's younger generation, only the soldiers guarding the city saluted him just now.

No bosses rushed over upon hearing the news, and there were no crowds watching.

"It seems that you don't have much popularity in Qian Song Dynasty. The son of a dignified general, no one cares about you when you enter the city." Lin Si joked.

Xie Shaoying pouted, he was used to this kind of situation.

What's more, he didn't care about this kind of ostentation.

It wasn't until the three of them arrived at the General's Mansion that a servant at the door finally saw his young master.

Then Lin Si finally realized the feeling of being welcomed...

Also traveling back home with someone else, Lin Si felt that the welcome he and Xie Shaoying received when they returned home was not as enthusiastic as when they returned home with Hua Susu.

Although the General's Mansion is far more magnificent than Washington's.

Xie's father did not appear, and Xie's mother had passed away long ago. Except for the two gatekeepers who said with a smile when they entered the door, "Master is back", only two other servants stepped forward and led the horse away.

Regarding Lin Mu's arrival, they didn't ask a word.

Under the leadership of Xie Shaoying himself, the two entered the main hall all the way.

When a servant came up to offer tea, Xie Shaoying asked casually, "Where is my father?"

"Still in court." The servant turned his head and replied.

Xie Shaoying said lightly, and then said nothing.

Seeing this scene, Lin Mu and the two were amazed. This family is really different from others.

Xie Shaoying has been away for at least a month and a half, right?And it is said that he left home quietly.

He has also experienced repeated battles and escapes along the way, and now it is rare to return home, and he is so calm, as if nothing happened.

He can be called the master of this family, but now he looks like a guest.

Could it be that he doesn't feel anything about this family?

But Lin Si remembered that when Hua Susu returned to Washington from Qingyue Forest, it was not like this at all.
