Chapter 703: The Tiger of Kaiping, the Fierce Lion(2/2)
Yang Qingyuan said that the fact that King Kaiping is still alive is probably considered top secret in the palace. How did Zhang Xiaomeng know?!
"Not only does he know how to live, he has now entered Buddhism and has to compete with Erhu every few years..."
"Senior brother, what I'm asking is, why did he know that Chang Boren was in Wudang..."
Yang Qingyuan felt that Zhang Sanfeng was not old either, so why was he so confused?!
Just when Yang Qingyuan was thinking about it, he felt a pain in his forehead, and Zhang Laodao flicked his fingers.
"Although I'm experienced, it's not good for you to arrange it like this!"
Yang Qingyuan's eyes were puzzled, could he read minds?! He could read his mind?!
"I don't know how to read minds, but your face says you are old and deaf!"
Yang Qingyuan shrugged to show his helplessness, but he also updated an achievement.
Isn’t Xu Fu awesome!? He died after being pointed between the eyebrows by Zhang Sanfeng!
Yang Qingyuan is the only one in the entire world who has been able to defeat the Zhenwu Taoist Master nineteen times without dying even though he flicked his forehead with his finger!
"Although Zhang Xiaomeng and Erhu are sworn enemies, their martial arts skills and mental methods are of the same origin. They are probably from the same school."
At this time, Yang Qingyuan also recalled what was recorded in his "Records of the Great Zhou Dynasty" that Taizu wanted to kill Zhang Xiaomeng to comfort the spirits of the fallen soldiers, but King Kaiping persuaded him to do so.
If there is no connection between the two, you would not believe it even if you beat Yang Qingyuan to death!
The old man has a hot temper even when he is young, but he can still give advice?!
But these two old men are also funny. One came to Wudang to live in seclusion, and the other became a monk. Are they really at odds with each other?!
"However, it is a good thing to have King Kaiping here. At least you don't have to worry about the Fourteenth Prince!"
That’s right, Wudang Mountain is also known as the Royal Asylum of the Zhou Dynasty.
Now there are three and a half officers on Wudang Mountain. The King of Wei is the legitimate son of Emperor Taizong and the brother of the Emperor, so his status goes without saying. The King of Kaiping is the four founding kings of the country. Although only the rites of a county prince are used to inherit the title, Chang Boren is definitely the king.
The treatment of Ban Chao Luan Jia; there is also Lao Zhangtou, the imperial advisor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with the same position as the crown prince.
No one with such a status can be found in the capital of the gods. As for the clan princes in the court, they are just county princes on the left and right, let alone incomparable.
After solving the case of the Fourteenth Prince, Yang Qingyuan also settled in Wudang with peace of mind.

Youzhou, Yancheng.
"Your Majesty, we have gathered together the tribes of Houjin and obtained a total of 180,000 young men to control the strings. We have initially trained 100,000 cavalry."
"so much?!"
Zhu Kai was surprised when he heard this. He originally expected that getting 50,000 cavalry would be a good harvest.
After all, Hou Jin once used the whole country to attack the Great Zhou Dynasty, and lost 500,000 troops in the Great Zhou Dynasty. In this way, he could still scrape together 180,000 young men.
"Your Majesty, the people we have recruited are all from the small and medium-sized tribes of Houjin. Although King Nurhaji of Houjin once conquered the young men of the country, Houjin is a barbarian after all, and the imperial court does not have enough control over the tribes.
These tribes were photographed under the influence of Prince Nurha of Jinqing. Although some of them are young and strong, it is impossible for all of them to be young."
"After all, we have not been civilized, and tribes annex each other from time to time. If there is really no young and strong, it will be fat meat that is slaughtered by others!" King Zhao guarded Youzhou all the year round, and often went north to deal with Hou Jin. For Hou Jin,
It is also very understanding.
Although this war to destroy the gold was completed by the imperial army, at least 50% of the benefits were secretly swallowed up by King Zhao.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Before Yang Qingyuan and Yu Yanyi sent troops, King Zhao took the lead and moved a large number of tribes, cattle and sheep into Youzhou.
There are hundreds of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses, and a population of more than one million.
This is also due to the fact that Houjin is a fishing and hunting people, and their grazing level and natural conditions are not as good as those of the nomadic people. If Beigan were replaced, the number of cattle and sheep would have increased more than ten times.
This also led to the emergence of a big hole - people have to eat.
It is difficult for Youzhou alone to support this sudden population.
Moreover, the fall of Houjin caused an economic crisis for King Zhao.
Originally, the royal court only allocated 30,000 soldiers and horses to King Zhao for the troops he was openly preparing. The 40,000 soldiers and horses of the original Longwu Army under his control were all allocated separately.
The remaining soldiers and horses are all supported by King Zhao himself, and they cannot be found out by the court.
Although the Taizong Dynasty knew that King Zhao had secretly expanded the army, they never obtained solid proof. Moreover, the people of the Later Jin Dynasty were indeed brave and brave, which put a lot of pressure on them, so they did not commit suicide.
King Zhao earned a huge amount of money by monopolizing the merchant goods. You must know that Dongzhu, mink skin, and ginseng were all highly sought after by the powerful and wealthy merchants of the Zhou Dynasty.
Moreover, Houjin also had silver mines. King Zhao secretly had two mines, but the Houjin court didn't know about them.
Now that Hou Jin has been destroyed by the Great Zhou Dynasty, although the old land of Hou Jin has not yet been developed by the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is not as safe as before, so King Zhao had to think about it.
But King Zhao was also a decisive person. After ten breaths, he made a decision, "I will pass on this king's order to move to the hometown of Houjin!"
The soil in Houjin's hometown is fertile, but the fishing and hunting tribes don't know how to cultivate it!
Although the destruction of Hou Jin affected King Zhao's business, it also gave King Zhao an opportunity. If he could completely take over the hometown of Hou Jin and develop it, he could even compete with the imperial court!
King Zhao looked towards the southwest.
