The Chu Dynasty was the largest country in the Qianlong Continent. The heads of the Qin family and the Shangguan family among the four major families were in a quiet courtyard.

Qin De sat at the stone table with a calm look on his face, while Xu Yuan stood beside him and waited quietly.

"Haha...Brother Qin De, long time no see." An old man with silver-white hair strode over. This old man actually had golden earrings on his ears, and his eyes were even colder, but at this moment he was full of...

enthusiasm.

Qin De stood up, pointed to the side and said with a smile: "Brother Shangguan, please sit down."

Shangguan Hong, the king of Zhenbei in the Chu Dynasty, controlled the two counties in the northern region. There were only four people in the courtyard at the moment, Qin De and Xu Yuan. The other two were Shangguan Hong and his subordinate Zhuang Jun. Outside the courtyard, there were

There are a large number of experts who are secretly on guard.

"Brother Qin De, what are you doing with me, an old man, this time?" Shangguan Hong smoothed his silver hair slightly before sitting down. It was obvious that Shangguan Hong was very concerned about his hair. His subordinate Zhuang Jun was standing there

behind him.

Qin De smiled and said: "I won't beat around the bush, you help me, and we will take over the Chu Dynasty together."

Shangguan Hong was startled. He didn't expect Qin De to be so straightforward. Although he had already guessed Qin De's intention to meet him secretly this time, Shangguan Hong then laughed dryly: "Brother Qin De, don't be joking. This is terrible."

If you want to lose your head, I can pretend that I have never heard of this."

Qin De shook his head slowly and said, "Let me ask you, do you want to do it or not?"

Shangguan Hong did not answer, and was silent for a long time. Then he raised his head and asked, "Even if we join forces, how sure are you?"

"Eighty percent!" Qin De said calmly.

Shangguan Hong laughed and said: "Brother Qin De, don't fool me, the Mu family has an army of 600,000, and the four counties in the Western Regions have an army of 800,000, which adds up to 1.4 million.

Our two counties in the northern region only have a total of 400,000, and yours is only 600,000, how come you have 80%?"

"If I want to destroy the Xiang family, it will take more than 600,000 troops." Qin De said with a smile.

Shangguanhong narrowed his eyes: "Oh? It seems that brother Qin De also has a lot of troops secretly. But the Xiang family and the Mu family add up to 1.4 million. How many troops do you have secretly? I dare say you are 80% sure, and you

With so many people in the dark, how can they escape the Xiang family's intelligence investigation!" Shangguan Hong obviously didn't believe it.

"There are still 200,000 secretly." Qin De said with a smile, "The total is 800,000. Although our Fierce Tiger Army only has 50,000, its real attack power is equivalent to an army of 200,000 to 300,000."

Shangguanhong's eyes lit up.

Of course he knew how powerful the Fierce Tiger Army was. He thought about it in his mind and said with a smile: "Indeed, if we just talk about the quality of the army, your army in the three counties of the Eastern Region is the strongest. If there are really 200,000 secretly, there is still some hope.

But as far as I know, the bandits in the Blackwater Mountains still need your 200,000 troops to deter them. Otherwise, the bandits in the Blackwater Mountains will wreak havoc on the three counties of the Eastern Region, which will disrupt your home base."

Qin De said nonchalantly: "There is no need to worry about this, they are just some bandits. Although the Blackwater Mountains are extremely vast, it is extremely difficult to eradicate them. But there is one thing...the bandits in the Blackwater Mountains are just bandits.

As long as we talk about it and give them some benefits, they will settle down."

Qin De's eyes suddenly lit up: "In this case, my army can completely attack. You have to know that our three counties in the Eastern Region are close to the ancient times. The army often trains in the ancient times and attacks the ancient monsters. It is definitely not the same as the four counties in the western regions.

The kind of soldiers who haven't fought in decades or hundreds of years can be compared."

Qin De is very confident.

Shangguan Hong nodded in affirmation.

It is true that the four major families each have their own armies. However, in terms of military combat effectiveness, the armies of the three counties of the Eastern Region are definitely the strongest, because the army bases of the three counties of the Eastern Region are on the border of the primitive world, and they often fight against wild beasts.

Bloody.

The armies of the Xiang family, Mu family, and Shangguan family have not had any wars for decades or hundreds of years.

Shangguan Hong kept thinking in his mind, and after a moment he raised his head and said, "Then what good do I do? How can you guarantee that you will destroy the Xiang family but not me in the future?"

Qin De smiled slightly and said: "It's very simple. The two counties of the four counties in the Western Region that are close to the northern ocean belong to you. Together with your original two counties, there are four counties in total. These four counties are close to each other and have the ocean at their backs.

, you have these four counties, with the ocean at your back, so you are not afraid that I will regret it in the future. How about that?"

"The four counties close to the ocean?" Shangguanhong's eyes suddenly lit up, and it was obvious that his heart was moved.

These four counties are close to each other. Once Shangguanhong belongs to him, even if Qin De wants to destroy him in the future, it will be difficult. After all, with the sea as a natural barrier and the four counties in hand, there will be no problem at least in self-protection. Moreover, after the war,

The Qin family probably doesn't have much power to deal with him anymore.

"What if the Han Dynasty takes the opportunity to attack?" Shangguanhong continued to ask.

Qin De stood up, waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about this, the Han Dynasty has absolutely no chance. As for the Ming Dynasty, I believe that the weak dynasty does not need many people who will only be attacked and dare not attack."

Shangguanhong was silent.

After a long time, Shangguan Hong nodded: "I promise you, but the troops from our two northern counties will never serve as vanguards."

"Okay, it's settled."

Qin De and Shangguan Hong high-fived and swore an oath of alliance.

"Haha..." Qin De and Shangguan Hong looked at each other and laughed. However, no one knew what they were thinking. Do they have to abide by the oath of high-five? In Qianlong Continent, there are not many people.

I believe in high fives and oaths of alliance.

…

On the second day, in the courtyard of Yizhuang, Shangguan Hong was sitting at the desk writing furiously, while Zhuang Jun was respectfully watching beside him.

After a while, Shangguanhong finished writing and read it carefully again. He couldn't help but be very satisfied.

"Hmph, that idiot Qin De actually wants to rebel and wants to drag me into trouble. Wouldn't it be nice for me to be my stable King of Zhenbei now? Although... the four counties are also very attractive. What a pity." Shangguan Hong looked at it.

Holding a piece of paper in front of the table, he couldn't help laughing.

Zhuang Jun said from the side: "Your Majesty, the conditions of the Qin family are quite good, and they are quite sincere. Do you really not give them hope?"

Shangguan Hong turned to look at Zhuang Jun and laughed: "Zhuang Jun, we can't lose. Do you know? So we both have to place bets. Whether the Qin family wins or the Xiang family wins, we all have to get something."

benefit."

Zhuang Jun was confused.

But Shangguan Hong smiled. Zhuang Jun was his most loyal subordinate and the second-largest person in the two counties in the northern region. Zhuang Jun saved Shangguan Hong's life twice. Of course, Shangguan Hong valued Zhuang Jun very much.

"Zhuang Jun, I am sure of this matter. You don't need to worry. You can go out." Shangguan Hong said with a calm smile.

"My subordinates, please leave." Zhuang Jun immediately left the room.

Shangguan Hong's face suddenly turned cold: "Send this letter to the Emperor." Suddenly a black shadow flashed, and the letter on Shangguan Hong's desk disappeared.

Shangguan Hong squinted at the window and said to himself: "Qin De, you have never imagined the relationship between my Shangguan family and the Xiang family. It's just your bad luck. Even if I don't help each other, how can your family compete?"

The Xiang family and the Mu family, when the three counties of the Eastern Region are wiped out, maybe I can still get some benefits."
