Chapter 190: Dragon Head Raises Its Prestige(1/2)

Chapter 190 Dragon Head Shows Power

Jiuhu City, Lianyun Mountain City, Xiaoling Mountain City, and the three cities began a earth-shaking rectification. This was what Wang Bing originally planned. After taking over these three cities, he would no longer move forward, but instead reform on the spot. After the three cities stabilized, he would advance towards Longshou City, face Shang Linbai directly, and then control other cities.

Wang Bing knew very well that the unification of the Dalong Kingdom was a matter of time sooner or later, and it was something in my pocket. What is not certain is how much blood and tears the people had to pay in the middle. As for the moment, in the control of the situation, only a few nobles became victims of my reform path.

One advantage of slowly advancing reform is that it allows everyone to accept it, completely change the status quo, and realize the reform and opening-up policy in cities in their hands. I believe that the power of the people is strong, and there are many examples on the earth. As long as the people of Dalong Kingdom realize the benefits of reform, wake up the string deep in their hearts, and make them realize the resistance to the current status quo, then the goal will be achieved, and it will be a matter of time before the reform is realized on the planet Juli.

The reform of the three cities is easier than that of the Qincheng. Qincheng began to implement the reform plan. For the first time, everyone has seen this unimaginable way. Whether it is following Wang Bing, the people, or the nobles, they feel very unfamiliar. With the precedent of Qincheng, the people of the three cities have long realized the benefits of reform and are very envious of the people of Qincheng who can be the masters of their own. At the beginning of the reform, they actively cooperated and fought against the obstacles of a few nobles, because they knew from the reform of Qincheng that the nobles would become the past and would no longer have the chance to turn over. What are they afraid of?

The nobles knew that their current situation would be their own life if they did not cooperate. Therefore, only a few people resisted, and others cooperated very actively and obediently handed over private property, including slaves, private armed forces, large tracts of land, etc., which had a certain effect on the reform and opening up policy.

Relatively speaking, because of Qin Cheng's work experience, the people around Wang Bing are familiar with the reform plan and are easy to use. They don't need Wang Bing to say anything next to them. They know what they want to do and cooperate with each other.

Among the three cities, the city lord Yue Baixuan of Jiuhu City and the city lord Xiao Luoai of Xiaoling Mountain City actively cooperated and supported the reform. Qi Ming of Lianyun Mountain City was taken down and locked up.

Yue Baixuan and Xiao Luoai knew that the general trend was not something that their power could stop, so they simply cooperated actively. Besides, they did see the benefits of the reform. Yue Baixuan himself is a cultivator and has a relatively weak view of things in the secular world. His desire for power is relatively less favorable than others. Besides, Yao Yan and others are supporting him later.

It would be false to say that Xiao Luoai has no desire for power. He is an ambitious person. He used to think about strengthening Xiaoling Mountain City into the city with the best economic power in Dalong Kingdom. Therefore, the people of Xiaoling Mountain City have a better life, but after all, they are nobles and they put themselves in their shoes. In addition, the current situation of Dalong Kingdom, everyone is living a very bad life. Under the threat of the troops at the city, he compromised.

Yue Baixuan handed over Jiuhu City and never participated again. He watched with a bystander. Xiao Luoai led Ge Yang Qinzhong and Zhou Sina to actively participate in the reform. It can be said that in the reform process of Xiaoling Mountain City, the three of them made an indelible contribution and played a certain role.

Among the four cities controlled now, there are nearly 100,000 slaves, which is a huge number. The Dalong Kingdom itself is not big. In various countries, the Dalong Kingdom is a small poor country that is not valued by the world. And having so many slaves is shocking, which shows that the people's lives are indeed very bad.

After thinking for a long time, Wang Bing decided to take these 100,000 slaves as members of the royal city. They were about to accept the elimination of the marks on their faces. They were basically homeless people. After transporting them to the royal city for treatment, they made arrangements based on their specific circumstances. After this idea was made, they moved all the slaves from Xiaoling Mountain City, Jiuhu City, Lianyun Mountain City, and the three cities to Qincheng, and merged with the slaves from Qincheng. After the Dalong Kingdom was unified, they transferred all the slaves to the royal city, and to a certain extent the power of the royal city was expanded.

When the reform of the three cities was in full swing and the people shouted happily, everyone in Longshou City was nervous and restless. In front of them, Princess Namei was unstoppable to control the four cities, and behind them, General Zhuo Baizhuo continued to harass her. For several months, everyone in Longshou City was left to be in danger and lived in tension.

Of course, the poor people privately hope that Princess Namei would take down Longshou City earlier and let them live a free life. Longshou City is the capital of the Dalong Empire and the concentration camp of the aristocrats of the Dalong Kingdom. As long as the nobles with status and status are concentrated in Longshou City and live a romantic and free life. The people of Longshou City will not live a better life just because they live in the capital. On the contrary, their lives are worse than those of the people in other places. They are all nobles at the bottom. They can imagine how they live.

The nobles are different. They have long received news about the changes in the four cities. There is no noble in the four cities now. Everyone is equal. The property of the nobles has been confiscated. Everything in the family is not for themselves. The nobles, like ordinary people, have to work and support themselves. How can these noble people to endure it? Therefore, they are very nervous, afraid that everything they have now will disappear in the blink of an eye. For their own interests, they are actively preparing.

Shang Linbai has lived the most difficult time during this period. On the one hand, he has to care about his rights, and on the other hand, he has to face the long-winded nobles of Longshou City, which has made him anxious. He holds meetings and discusses every day, but has not come up with an effective method.

Shang Linbai, who had a gloomy face, was discussing the current situation with the ministers all night last night. He had been arguing for the rest of the night, but it was in vain that these ministers were considering their own interests and supporting their opinions. As a result, they quarreled over the other night, and they didn't take out any opinions and ended when dawn was about to end.

Shang Linbai, with his exhausted body, just lay down and closed his eyes and rested for a while, but was woken up by a guard. Shang Lin Bai shouted loudly: "Bastard, haven't you seen me resting?"

The guards said in panic: "Your Majesty, it is those ministers who have come here again, they are waiting for you outside."

Shang Lin Baihuo said: "It's them again, damn it. Don't they sleep or rest. They usually show off their power. Now they are nervous, and there is nothing to do with it..."

Shang Linbai cursed like this, but he also forced himself to sit up. He knew that this was not the time to offend these people. Without the support of these people, he could not stop Princess Namei's attack alone.

However, he couldn't just go out like this and told the guards: "You ask them to wait for me in the chamber first."

After the guards went out, Shang Linbai stood up and washed it. It was as simple as it could not be simple. Now he was in the mood to sort out his appearance. After waiting for a while, he walked out of the dormitory and let the ministers wait for a while before he could show his noble identity as an emperor.

In the meeting hall, Shang Linbai looked at the frightened minister and said, "Dear dear ministers, are you not going to rest? What's the matter if you are so anxious to come to me? I won't tell me that you have agreed to my plan? In that case, I will be very happy to hear that if I still want to argue, I think everyone might as well go back."

Seeing that Shang Linbai knew the question, the ministers did not scold the ancestors of Shang Lin's royal family in their hearts. The situation was tense these days. Shang Linbai took the opportunity to ask the ministers to take out certain gold coins to support the war, handed over the private armed personnel of the ministers to form an army, and all the expenses of this army were paid by the ministers themselves. For this reason, the ministers began a fierce debate. They knew in their hearts that Shang Linbai wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the troops at the city to dismantle their armed forces and squeeze their wealth. These ministers were not vegetarians, so how could they be easily deceived?

General Huanhou, who is in charge of the military power, agrees to organize private armed forces. The current situation is serious, and the more force you have, the more chance of winning. He thought for a while and said, "I support Your Majesty. If we cannot block Princess Name and drive out of the Dalong Empire, everything in our own hands will disappear. Don't talk about those armed forces. The most urgent task is to deal with the current crisis rather than quarrel."

Prime Minister Junzhuo agreed: "Mr. Huan said it right. We should support Your Majesty's idea now. Only by protecting Longshou City is equivalent to protecting everything we have. If Longshou City is broken, no matter how much you have, it will be useless. At this time, we should give up our immediate interests. As long as we pass this level, are we still afraid that we will not have the chance to have what we have to pay?"

The ministers looked at Junzhuo in surprise. This time he was a hardliner against Shang Linbai. Why did he change in less than an hour and instead support Shang Linbai?

Shang Linbai was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "So Jun, how many gold coins are you willing to spend and how many people can you hand over?"

Prime Minister Junzhuo secretly scolded Shang Linbai for taking advantage of the situation. He sneered in his heart, but said without hesitation: "I will pay 10,000 gold coins and the armed forces of 10,000 people. Your Majesty, this is all my ability. Now I will hand over everything I have. Dear sirs, you should also express it."

Shang Linbai was stunned. Ten thousand gold coins, ten thousand people? What's the use? This old fox has been operating for many years and is rich enough to rival a country. The armed forces that have been privately raised are at least 100,000, and only 100,000 gold coins are paid. Ten thousand million are almost the same. All the armed personnel should be handed over to achieve his goal.

The other ministers also knew the details of each other. The old fox Junzhuo was purely dealing with it. They were not stupid and responded immediately, but the expenditure was less than one-tenth of them.

Shang Lin slapped his chair with a big fire and said, "What do you mean? I want to watch Longshou City be taken down by Princess Namei, confiscate all your wealth and armed forces, and let you go to farm. Is this what you want to see? Then what do you want to do to me? Let everyone die, why bother to let me come and listen to your nonsense again."

To this day, everyone has no respect for Shang Linbai as before. He disagreed with Shang Linbai's anger. Junzhuo first counterattacked: "Your Majesty, this is your fault. The current situation is that your Shang Lin royal family is in internal struggle. We have no reason to get involved in internal struggle. Besides, Princess Namei has the support of saints behind it. This is something everyone knows. As your ministers, it is good to be able to support you like this. If Your Majesty sincerely fights against Princess Namei, you should not use this opportunity to make things difficult for all ministers. The gold coins in the treasury should be taken out to support this war. Are you not a 200,000 guards under your command? They are usually pampered. Now it is time to use it. If Your Majesty is willing to take out the gold coins in the treasury and transfer the 100,000 guards to the front line, we are willing to take out our own private armed forces and gold coins."

Shang Lin's face was very dark and shouted: "Master Prime Minister, what do you mean? Don't you know how many gold coins are in the treasury? My guards are on the front line? Are you not afraid of being laughed at by other countries? The saint supports Princess Namei. We just heard that, but who can be sure of being a saint? Besides, we don't know the news from Huijian City. He Zhelu released a rumor and said that the saint is fake. Who knows whether it is true or false? Can you be sure? Can anyone tell me whether it is you or you Prime Minister?"

The ministers were stunned and did not dare to oppose Shang Linbai immediately. After all, Shang Linbai was the king and was cruel and ruthless. If it were the past, they would be trembling when they met. The situation was different, so they dared to be arrogant in front of Shang Linbai. Now Shang Linbai is angry and they are a little scared. If Shang Linbai really attacks them, they will suffer.

Although they did not admit the legend of the saint in their hearts, they knew it must be true. If the saint was fake, He Zhelu's Dragon Fire Legion would disappear inexplicably? Can it easily capture four cities in succession, and can the countries on the planet Qili stare at it but dare not take action?

All of this shows that the saints are true, but the behavior of the saints makes them afraid of losing everything they are now. At this time, everyone knows that if the Dragon Shou City is taken down by the saints, they will have nothing. However, people are selfish. They hope to firmly control everything they have now, and then they will have more self-protection power. For their own interests, who is willing to hand over these things, not only does not want to hand over, but also try to strengthen their personal power in private to cope with the future situation.

General Huanhui was the only person who considered the war. He felt very sad inside. These selfish people were not doing well in a good Dalong Kingdom. At this time, they were still considering their own interests. The matter was obvious. If Longshou City was broken, what would be the use of any more plans? He still couldn't figure it out. It has been almost half a year since Qin City was controlled. These people started to quarrel, and they were still quarreling. If these momentum could be placed on national affairs, the situation might be better. He was completely disappointed with these people. If Longshou City was not broken, he thought it was a miracle.

Until now, he did not understand how the four cities were taken down. No war happened. Every time the city was controlled, there was no trace before. It was said that it was very good and very good. Jiuhu, Lianyunshan and Xiaolingshan were taken down at the same time. It has been a month now. Princess Namei showed no sign of launching a dragon-shou city, but was rectifying the three cities. Because of this, these ministers were not very nervous. If Princess Namei launched an attack, first of all, he was the general blocking the front, and these ministers would not run to the front. However, Huanhou did not think so. If the war did not happen, then what if the four cities were silent during the process of being captured, and only during the process of rectification would no longer be killed.

Huanhui saw that he was facing a state of emergency, and all the ministers showed their ugly faces. A thought that even he was surprised in his heart would be asked to take these people down. At least, Princess Namei would not be so ugly when discussing and deciding major events in the future. At least, everyone would not rack their brains to gain more of their own benefits every day.

While the ministers were racking their brains for their own interests, a guard came in and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Name is here to send a message and ask for an interview with you."

Everyone was shocked and immediately stopped the quarrel and looked at the guard in shock. This means that Princess Namei was about to attack Longshou City. The interview must have asked Shang Lianbai to step down and she would manage the Dalong Empire. Not to mention that Shang Linbai would not agree, they would not agree. They were all new nobles after Shang Linbai came to power. As the saying goes, one day the emperor and one day the princess Namei came to power, that is, when they stepped down, let's talk about Princess Namei's control of the four cities, the nobles will become the past, and these nobles will be the first to be unlucky, so they are waiting for Shang Linbai's decision one by one.

Shang Linbai looked at the faces of these ministers and was very angry. If these people could give up their interests, the situation would not be like this. Now he is nervous, and looking at him, what's the use?

Shang Linbai said with a dark face: "Where are she? Who else is there together?"

Everyone knows Shang Linbai’s intention and wants to know if the saint is with him. In fact, everyone wants to know this problem and looks at the guard nervously.

The guard said: "According to the guard post at the city gate, a very skilled master appeared at the city gate just now and said that Mr. Namei saw His Majesty, and then he disappeared without waiting for us to react."

Shang Linbai slapped his chair and shouted: "Bastard, you can't even catch anyone. What's the use of me raising you? Take it and chop it down."

The guard said in horror: "Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want to. The other party doesn't give us a chance at all. We have never seen that kind of master before. It's so horrible."

Shang Linbai has been dealing with these ministers every day with anger for half a year and has long wanted to vent. Now the guard just happened to run into it. He was too lazy to listen. He waved his hand expressionlessly, and the unlucky guard was taken down.

General Huanhou shook his head in disappointment. What does this matter to the guard? He is just a messenger. He even wants to punish the city defense master or him as a general.

Thinking of this, he looked at Lord Li Maozhong, who was covered in cold sweat on his face. He knew clearly the abilities of the city guards. What other skills could these city guards have besides showing off their power, and no one of them could be useful.

Li Maozhong was taken by Huanhou and took a breath in his heart. If Huanhou stood up and said something bad for him at this time, Shang Linbai would definitely take advantage of the issue to cure him. Fortunately, Huanhou did not take any other action after taking a look, which made him feel relieved.

Shang Linbai gritted his teeth and said, "Now everyone knows that he is nervous. There is Princess Namei in front and Yuanbai Zhuo behind. If we don't unite, it will be a matter of time before we go to destruction. I ordered all the private armed forces to be taken out, and each minister took out 100,000 gold coins. If anyone is still blocking them at such a critical moment, they will be executed. General Huanhou. This matter is left to you. You let go, and I will give you the responsibility of organizing the private armed forces. If anyone disagrees, he will rectify the Dharma on the spot. It will be decided and the meeting will be dismissed."

Shang Linbai did not give these ministers a chance to oppose them. After saying that, he left in a hurry and left the problem to General Huanhou. At this time, he was still petty about taking down the private armed forces of these nobles, which made Huanhou extremely disappointed.

The ministers looked at Huanhou. If there was another person here to consider the country, it was Huanhou who held military power. If the person they feared the most was Huanhou, the general. After all, Huanhou's military power in his hands made them afraid.

Huan knew that this was a rare opportunity, so he looked at everyone coldly and said, "Since Your Majesty asked me to deal with it with it with all his power, everyone, I'm sorry, this afternoon, if anyone dares to hide his troops privately, don't blame me for being rude. As the country is in danger, everyone should give their all. If you still want to show off your power in Longshou City in the future, don't let me come to you. Now that's it, I will send someone to wait in the square." After saying that, he slapped his butt and left.

These ministers knew that Huan Hui would act seriously and secretly scolded Shang Linbai for being cunning, but they did not dare to delay. They were afraid that Huan Hui would bring soldiers to fuck their home, including Prime Minister Jun Zhuo. His little force did not dare to appear in front of Huan Hui. In addition, Huan Hui had never had a good impression of him, and was afraid that Huan Hui would take advantage of this opportunity to be detrimental to him, so he hurriedly left.

Huanhou looked at the messy crowd in the square, frowned and cold, without saying a word. These private armed forces were not in formation at all, and were far from the regular army he needed. If he was asked to train these to the command, it would not be possible in one or two days. But now he did not have this time, so he could only train simply. He just sent soldiers to the door and asked him to check if there were any private armed forces. He did not have this time. He didn't have the time to do so and knew that those nobles would not hand over all the armed forces to him. He was too lazy to ask, the matter was important.

When the defense was in full swing in Longshou City, Wang Bing took Princess Namei to the back of Longshou City to meet General Yuanlei Zhuo. Yuanlei Zhuo was nearly fifty years old, with a burly figure, a straight nose, a beard all over his face, and a relatively shabby light blue outfit.

Yuan Baizhuo knelt down with the guards, and Yuan Baizhuo whispered: "See the Saint and join the princess."

Wang Bing smiled and said, "Yuan Jianjun should not do this, everyone should get up."

After everyone sat down in the dilapidated tent, Princess Name said excitedly: "General, thank you for your hard work. Looking at your current appearance, I feel so uncomfortable. I don't know how you came here for so many years. It's really hard for you."

Yuanlei Zhuo smiled heartily and said, "The princess is so serious. When we separated, I said that I will train a strong army for you to wait for you. Now that we have finally arrived, everyone is very happy. The princess should be happy. Yes, we have been through the difficulties in the desert over the years, and life has been very difficult. However, everyone has a common goal, that is, to wait for the princess to grow up and lead us back to home."

Princess Namei nodded and said, "This day is not far away. Now I am here. I am discussing with everyone the plan to win the Dragon Shou City. Believe me, I will give you an explanation and let everyone live a good life."

Yuanlei Zhuo Xi said: "We have been waiting for the princess' words for ten years. Princess, as long as you say something, we will sacrifice our strength and life without hesitation. We have heard of your deeds in Qincheng and other four cities. Everyone is full of confidence and hope, so we are waiting for this day."

Wang Bing smiled and said, "I won't talk about these things. Now let's talk about Longshou City."

General Zhuo Yuanbai said: "Sage, everyone is grateful to you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know about the princess. Everyone got your help in the most difficult time and solved the food and clothing in front of us. You tell me, what do we want us to do? We will do our best to cooperate with you."

Princess Namei looked at her in surprise and said, "Young Master, you didn't tell me about this, I never knew about it. Thank you very much."

Wang Bing smiled and said, "No need to say that, aren't it just some gold coins? It's useless to put it here. General Ape can use it. This is a trivial matter and is not worth mentioning."

Yuanlei Zhuo shook his head and said, "Sage, it is not worth mentioning to you, but for these 200,000 of us, it is like a drought that is met with nectar."

Wang Bing didn't want to waste his time on these grateful topics and smiled: "There are 200,000 people behind Longshou City and 200,000 people from Princess Namei in front, which makes Shang Linbai anxious and unable to move. We are about to face Shang Linbai. I have sent someone to notify Shang Linbai, hoping to talk to him face to face. I think he also knows the purpose of doing this. If he doesn't want to see Princess Namei, a strong attack will be inevitable."

Princess Namei said: "In order to avoid excessive sacrifice, Prince Wang wants our troops to encircle Longshou City and force Shang Linbai to surrender. If it fails, he has to attack."

Yuanlei Zhuo nodded and said, "This is also a good method. However, the military power of Longshou City is in the hands of General Huanhou. This man is very talented and very skilled in the military management. Many people admire him for his strictness in the military. He now has nearly 600,000 troops in his hand, plus other troops, reaching a million troops. Our 400,000 to one million, a bloody battle is inevitable. If we can convince General Huanhou to surrender, we can avoid excessive sacrifices."

Wang Bing nodded and said, "General Ape did hit the vital point with one word. We have also discussed this, but it has not been decided yet. Considering that Huanhui is a talent promoted by Shang Linbai, you can give it a try."

Yuan Baizhuo looked at Wang Bing and admired me in his heart. He thought of all these things. Can Shang Linbai not fall down? He thought for a while and said, "Saint..."

Wang Bing raised his hand to stop him and said, "General Ape, don't call me a saint. There is another person in the saint, just call me Wang Bing."

Yuanbaizhuo was stunned and said, "This..."

Princess Namei smiled and said, "There are many things in between, and now I can't explain them clearly. General Ape still calls Prince Prince the same as me, and you will understand in the future."

Yuan Baizhuo couldn't understand the situation, so he nodded and nodded, "Young Master Wang, when are you going to start showing off to Shang Linbai?"

Wang Bing said: "If you are ready here, the faster the better."

Yuanlei Zhuo said: "I have been on standby and can cooperate with you at any time. I have been ready. To be honest, I have been waiting for ten years, just waiting for this moment."

Wang Bing smiled and said, "Okay, we will act tomorrow night and then talk to the monk Lin Bai."

Yuanlei Zhuo laughed and said, "Okay, Mr. Wang is decisive enough. I can't wait, haha..." He is not excited now. Ten years of waiting is coming soon. How can he not be excited?

Next, after discussing some details, he said goodbye and decided to take action tomorrow night. The meeting finalized the measures to take on Longshou City and the work to be done after taking down Longshou City. It can be said that Princess Namei established her political status in Dalong Kingdom and her future development direction. Although it is empty talk, it has an important role to be ignored.

Huanze actively mobilized the army to set up a miscellaneous army with 200,000 people obtained from the nobles, hoping to use it in an emergency. In the past two days, in order to make this miscellaneous army come in handy, he spent a lot of effort to rectify and train, and felt physically and mentally exhausted. It was already night, and he was still looking at the map of Longshou City, a little angry. If it was just a frontal attack, he still had confidence, but who could know that an army appeared behind was the fatal weakness. Even if Longshou City had nearly one million troops, fighting on both sides would greatly reduce the strength to a certain extent.

After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't come up with a comprehensive strategy. He put down the map in his hand and said to himself: "Is Longshou City really taken down in this battle? Or is it a foregone conclusion that I failed to thirst?"
To be continued...
