Chapter 569 Midnight Shelling

Sometimes good things happen one after another. Just when Li Xian was about to go to the beach to practice for Hao Youcai and other naval exercises, suddenly a guard rushed over, "King Xian, the news from Qingcheng (a colony of the Yue Kingdom) is that News from Governor Fu Minghui!"

Li Xian took over the thick document, glanced at it, and saw that the first page read: The State of Yue destroyed the State of Wu, fulfilling the promise; Mainly, request to send officials to govern. After the war, rectification was urgently needed, and about 35 million people in Qingcheng were waiting for rescue.

"Is this a happy event or a sad event?" Li Xian frowned tightly. Suddenly there was an additional land of 6,000 miles, which almost doubled the size of the Shang Kingdom; but the distance of 40,000 kilometers was still a piece of land that had been torn by war, and I was really powerless!

"There is only one way, let this year's graduates graduate early and let them start internships early!"

At the order of King Xian, the graduates who were still worried about graduation this year immediately cheered! Last year, there were very few graduates in the first class, but this year there were more than a thousand graduates. Everyone is graduating with headaches—the competition is getting fiercer; now it’s all right, no more headaches.

All fresh graduates who are willing to go into politics will be transferred. Whether it is Qidi or Qingcheng, a large number of officials are needed. Obviously, the only ones who want to be competent officials of the Shang Kingdom and gain Li Xian's trust are the students they cultivated themselves.

Li Xian asked Yan Ze'an and He Zhiguo to handle this matter together, while he took Li Yuanming and others to the port to practice.

At the same time, Zhu Fu, the representative of Zhu's mission, also headed for the port under the leadership of Li Xian's personal soldiers.

Zhu Fu saw the warships in the port from a long distance. Although he had heard about the power of countless giant steel ships, Zhu Fu was still shocked and infinitely shocked when he saw the giant steel ships with his own eyes.

The iron male body was motionless in the undulating waves, as if rooted in the mountain peaks deep in the sea. The steel cannon barrels exuded a ferocious aura of cold light. The superstructure of the warship reveals the breath of magic weapons everywhere, giving people a sense of indestructibility just by looking at it.

"For this military exercise, a total of two 30,000-ton capital ships were dispatched, namely General 2 and General 3.

Five frigates of the 10,000-ton class and 12 destroyers of the 5,000-ton class. "

The soldiers leading the way briefly explained the general situation to Zhu Fu.

It's just that Zhu Fu also keenly discovered the problem, "Isn't such a huge warship heavy?"

"No, very flexible!" The soldier said proudly, "A warship is equivalent to a hundred thousand elite soldiers. Is a hundred thousand elite soldiers heavy? Or is it a single warship heavy?

Moreover, compared with 100,000 elite soldiers, warships are small in size, which is more conducive to defense. As long as three or two masters are enough to protect the safety of the warship! "

After hearing this analysis, Zhu Fu was stunned. Yes, a warship is indeed more flexible than a hundred thousand elite soldiers. But does it compare?

With such doubts, Zhu Fu met Li Xian, and met this thunderous and virtuous king.

It should be said that anyone who sees Li Xian, who is dressed casually and has a tight cut, will be disappointed. But then he was in awe. It was such a virtuous king like a big boy who shaped the current Shang Kingdom and moved the politics of Yingzhou East.

Li Xian just said a few words to Zhu Fu, and then sent Zhu Fu to Li Yuanming for entertainment.

Li Xian stood on a temporary high platform, "Recently, the situation in Yingzhou East is unpredictable and volatile. Many people are concerned about the dynamics of Shang Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Shang upholds a peaceful, open, and fair attitude and will not take the initiative to join the war. This is for sure.

But we are not afraid of war. Anyone who dares to challenge the Shang Kingdom will face the wrath of the Shang Kingdom.

Today's exercise is to prove that the Shang Kingdom is capable of maintaining peace on one side. "

Immediately, cheers like a sea came from all around. People, in fact, don't like war!

Li Xian turned to the navy again, "Soldiers and warriors, I am here to assure you that the Kingdom of Shang will never launch an unjust war, and will never launch a war for personal selfish desires.

Your mission is sacred. You must protect the country, protect happiness, and protect the value of your dreams. "

More violent cheers came. From the sea to the land, the people of Shang Kingdom cheered for their dreams.

Li Xian waved his hand, and Hao Youcai, the vice-marshal of the navy, gave the order to set sail. 19 warships left the port like a mountain, rolled up boundless waves, and quickly went away. New warships are even faster!

But no matter how fast the speed is, it will still be dark when they arrive at Ziyan County.

After bidding farewell to the warship, Li Xian was about to leave, but at this moment, a figure flew out, "Hello, His Royal Highness, I am Yan Bo, Minister of Honglu Temple from Yan Kingdom, and I have a question to ask the Xian King. Please forgive me if there is any presumptuousness."

"Please tell me." Li Xian was smiling, but he raised his heart - if you dare to ask any nasty questions, I will blacklist Yan Guo!

Yan Bolai said loudly: "Now that the east of Yingzhou is in chaos, wouldn't the virtuous king take this opportunity to expand his territory?"

"Yes!" Li Xian agreed very simply, but before everyone could react, Li Xian continued: "But Shang Kingdom adheres to the principle of capitalism, and we prefer to expand the country by 'purchasing'. In this way, we will To avoid war and killing as much as possible.

In fact, we have implemented this method many times, and both sides are mutually beneficial and win-win.

Dongyuan County was purchased by us; and now the Yuan family is in the Kingdom of Shang, and it is rising again and at a high speed in the form of a group.

Songzhou County was also purchased by us; now Gao Bin, the former governor of Songzhou County, has established the "Sunshine Group", which has developed very well and belongs to the upper-middle group; in the future, there is a lot to do. "

"Thank you King Xian for your explanation." Yan Bo came down, seemingly satisfied with Li Xian's answer.

Later, someone asked some small questions, including the sale of munitions, technology, and important industrial products such as machine tools. Li Xian only answered a few principled questions, and asked these people to ask 'Chen Jinbing' when it came to specific situations.

Chen Jinbing is now in charge of this area.

Back at the City Lord's Mansion, Li Xian continued to be busy. The Shang Kingdom has developed to the present, and there are so many things that Li Xian can't completely be the shopkeeper. As Li Yuanming said, the current Shang Kingdom is in a critical state and it will take three years to adjust and optimize.

To this end, Li Xian will try his best to take measures to fight for three years.

…………

Night fell quietly, and the Shang Kingdom continued to be lively; here in the Shang Kingdom, the evil and righteous people can fight for drinks in a bar, and the evil and righteous people can also wrestle arms at a table.

Here, everything is so new and thriving.

But further south, in Bianguo, south of Liu State, it was a different scene. Here, it is the private land of the magic way, and it is the paradise of the magic way.

As for whether the people living here are "in dire straits", it's really hard to say. Bian State, a strange country that cannot be called a country, has lasted for tens of thousands of years. Some people even say that it has been longer than Zhao State. The people here are already used to life here.

It's just that the outside world knows very little about this country, and there is very little information circulated. It seems that everyone is 'secret about this country'.

But tonight, the silence may be broken.

Sima Xuan, Prime Minister of the Jin Kingdom, quietly came to Yicheng, or Yicheng Fanzhen, the most northeastern regime in Bian Kingdom. The person who guards and rules here is naturally the "Yicheng Jiedushi", named Cao Rong, a master of magic in the transformation stage.

"How dare you come to Bian to negotiate!" Yicheng Jiedu envoy Cao Rong looked down at Sima Xuan.

As soon as Cao Rong spoke, the surrounding guards immediately released a faint magic breath, forming a faint haze, and even more invisible pressure spread. Immediately, Sima Xuan felt heavy all over his body, it was difficult to breathe, and his legs seemed unable to support the weight of his body.

But Sima Xuan was neither humble nor overbearing, he stood upright with his head held high, his whole body straight: "Your Majesty has given you the honor, it's just that righteousness comes, and he will go through fire or water."

I'm not praising you~~~ Cao Rong was speechless after being choked by Sima Xuan's soft knife. "Okay, okay, what does your righteousness have to do with me?"

"Because what I'm going to say next is not only related to the interests of Jin, but also related to the future of the king. Moreover, mutual non-interference, mutual benefit and win-win."

"Oh...you want to bully me? Tell me, if you dare to bully me, I'll have you steamed immediately. Come on, boil the water first!"

Mo Dao did things simply, and immediately lit a fire outside the hall. With the help of spells, the seven-foot cauldron (pot) quickly rolled over.

If an ordinary person sees this kind of scene, his legs and feet will definitely be weak and his body will be covered in cold sweat. But Sima Xuan remained calm and turned a blind eye. He just looked at Cao Rong quietly, and even pretended:

"Your Majesty, if I say it empty-handed, I'm afraid Your Majesty won't believe it. Why don't we wait until midnight, and Your Majesty will know."

"In the middle of the night? Do you want someone to assassinate the king?"

"Is Your Majesty afraid?"

"Haha, aggressive generals are useless to this king! Assassination in the dark night or something, this king will tell you clearly - this king is really afraid, otherwise there is no need to arrange so many guards around."

Sima Xuan: ...The way of thinking in the orthodox way of magic is really straightforward!

"Haha..." Seeing Sima Xuan's embarrassment, Cao Rong laughed loudly, "Okay, I will wait with you until midnight. If nothing happens by tomorrow, then not only will you be steamed, but you will also be killed." Take your soul out and fry it on fire, and then suppress your remnant soul in the 'Yin Yang Stone Mill' to crush your soul bit by bit!"

Hearing this vicious punishment, even though Sima Xuan was full of confidence, he still shuddered. The way people of the devil way do things is really... unacceptable to ordinary people. No wonder the surrounding countries have always been 'secret' about this land.

Time passed by, the sun set, the moon rose, the temperature gradually became colder, and the surrounding torches seemed to be flickering.

Sima Xuan stood in the hall without even a place to sit; Cao Rong yawned on the spacious throne. Suddenly, Cao Rong opened his eyes and asked the left and right: "What time is it?"

The guards next to "at the end of six quarters (30 a.m.)" didn't even bat an eye.

Cao Rong turned to Sima Xuan, "It seems that there is no..."

"Boom...boom..."

Before Cao Rong finished speaking, there was a roar from the north. The huge sound made the whole world tremble, and countless ordinary birds and beasts were frightened into panic.
