Chapter 199 War Escalation
There are countless giant cities in the great dynasty, but Di'an City is the only one that can be called the heart.
This is a city in the sky built on the top of Jiulong Mountain.
At least, Xu Yuan used to think so in Cangyuan, but there is always a slight gap between reality and the game.
After thousands of years of expansion and repair, Di'an City has expanded from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, and it is still spreading outward.
The majestic Jiulong Mountain has been shrouded by countless building complexes, including attic Xiaoxie, garden pavilions, and densely populated civilian areas.
Taking the Golden Throne on the Golden Temple on the top of the mountain as the central axis, several huge official roads that can pass through by large monsters run through and divide Di'an City, and four towering walls divide the huge city into palace, emperor, inner and outer. Four cities, from inside to outside, from high to low.
Sitting on the back of the Xuanying loft, looking around,
Among the misty rain, the white birds turned toward the phoenix, and countless monsters gathered from all directions.
Looking down, the city is bustling with people, and countless business travelers are unloading goods at the gates of each city, handling all kinds of necessary supplies for this giant beast.
The Xuanying loft leaped all the way, and after entering the imperial city, they were the only monster left flying under the clear sky in the big sky.
According to the Law of Great Flame, the imperial city is forbidden to fly, no matter flying monsters or high-level cultivators.
Seeing the familiar giant mansion in his memory gradually approaching, Xu Yuan slowly withdrew his gaze and landed on the man in Tsing Yi opposite.
Xu Changge's voice was calm, with a vague smile:
"How, this time back to Beijing, do you think there are changes in this city?"
Xu Yuan thought for a while and said:
"I didn't seem to see Tiangong Tower just now."
"." Xu Changge.
While speaking, Xu Yuan pointed to the river that runs through the imperial capital:
"Also, I see that there are a few new Goulan restaurants near the Long'an River, and they look very impressive, that is.
"Cough, anyway, the changes are quite big."
Xu Changge raised his hand to support his forehead, glanced at the sky, and exhaled:
"Father should be in the mansion today."
Xu Yuan nodded when he heard the words, not surprised.
Court meetings are not held every day. On weekdays, the important officials of the imperial capital spend most of their time in their own "offices" in Miyagi, but Xu Yinhe usually likes to work in his own mansion.
Pause for a moment, Xu Yuan suddenly asked Xu Changge:
"By the way, Xu Changge, which identity should I use when I return to the Imperial Capital?"
Xu Changge raised his eyes and glanced at the third brother:
"Which one do you want to use?"
Xu Yuan chuckled:
"I can use either."
Xu Changge sighed and said:
"You came back for the engagement, just be careful not to wear clothes."
Xu Yuan grinned and took off the human skin mask directly:
"okay."
The words fell silent.
The height of the Xuanying loft gradually began to drop.
And at this time,
Xu Yuan seemed to suddenly think of something, and said:
"By the way, I went north with the third prince before."
Xu Changge was not surprised:
"Well, I saw him on the way here."
Xu Yuan knocked on the table and stacked the armor first:
"Xu Changge, I want to ask you a question, nothing else."
Xu Changge glanced at the third brother helplessly, and nodded:
"Just ask."
Xu Yuan carefully considered his words:
"Who was that sister in red just now? The third prince saw her and knew she was coming after me."
Xu Changge's eyes were calm, and there was no emotion in his voice:
"She is the little celestial master of the celestial master gate."
"Little Celestial Master?"
Hearing this, Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment:
"Didn't you say that the little celestial master of the celestial master gate is a man?"
Xu Changge's voice is calm:
"Women who disguise themselves as men and travel around the world are rare?"
Xu Yuan thought for a while and shook his head:
"It's not uncommon, but it's rare to be able to hide it from the world for more than ten years."
"It's really rare."
Xu Changge smiled slightly, looked out the window with complicated eyes, and sipped his teacup lightly: "So you don't have to worry about the third prince suspecting you through her affairs."
Seeing this expression, Xu Yuan wanted to laugh, but held back, and asked seriously:
"So, my identity shouldn't be leaked from her?"
Xu Changge glanced at Xu Yuan, and spit out two words:
"Won't."
Heard the words,
Xu Yuan laughed, and while laughing, he got up and walked to Xu Changge's side, and patted the elder brother on the shoulder.
Xu Changge was still sitting upright holding his teacup.
Xu Yuan took out a futon and sat down, took the wine glass and poured himself a glass, saying earnestly:
"Xu Changge, I watched it just now, and there is something I think I can talk to you about."
Xu Changge glanced at Xu Yuan's movements, his eyes were calm, and he didn't speak.
“.”
Xu Yuan coughed lightly:
"I know that you, the boss, may be very upset if I, the third child, say that, but feelings are not spiritual practice, let alone fighting, and it's not that you have big fists."
"Om—"
One hum,
A black shadow was thrown from the Xuanying loft, and landed in the wetland lake in Xiangguo Mansion with a "boom".
Breaking his head out of the rain curtain of the lake, Xu Yuan raised his eyes and watched the whizzing past the Xuanyin loft in midair, and sighed helplessly.
Death to save face and suffer, deserves to be single for the rest of my life.
Wetly boarded the lake, and suddenly saw a figure waiting on the shore.
Xu Yuan was not surprised when he saw it. The most indispensable thing in Xiangguo's mansion is a master.
The figure is a woman, holding an umbrella, she handed the towel:
"Third son, towel."
"Thanks."
Xu Yuan glanced at the other side, and subconsciously glanced at the other side of the lakeshore.
There is a nine-story loft.
Cangshu Pavilion in Xiangguo Mansion.
The woman waiting on the shore in front of him is the maid in the library, and also his mother's personal maid.
Third-rank grand master.
Xu Yuan took the towel, nodded and said with a smile:
"Um."
The woman smiled softly, handed the umbrella to Xu Yuan, bowed and saluted:
"Master Xiangguo is waiting for you in the inner court, and the servants will leave first."
After finishing speaking, the woman stepped on the lake and walked towards Zangshuge despite the rain.
Watching the other party go away, Xu Yuan shook his head and wiped his hair with an umbrella and towel, while walking towards the inner court.
The Xiangguo mansion in the imperial capital is also very big, even bigger than the mansion in the Jingjiang mansion. The current emperor deliberately ordered that several nearby blocks be demolished in this imperial city where every inch of land was expensive to build for the old man.
Compared with the Xu Mansion in Jingjiang Fu City, the Xiangguo Mansion in the Imperial Capital is obviously much more lively.
In addition to the most basic maids and waiters, there are many people in the mansion wearing court official uniforms and brocade robes.
Some of these people came to visit the pier to give gifts, some came to give memorials, and some were his father's group staff.
I didn't know it before, but looking at it now, this Xiangguo mansion is another court hall in the imperial capital.
Those who can stay and work in the Xiangguo mansion are basically old people, so Xu Yuan, who took off the human skin mask, can be considered unimpeded in it.
There was no sudden appearance of a collateral son or high-ranking villain to make things difficult for him, the third son who had returned from going out.
Walking all the way, most of the people who bowed their bodies and saluted Xu Yuan had breaths that were thick and unfathomable.
If it were Cangyuanli, these people would probably all be elite bosses with **** question marks on their heads.
after all,
The Xiangguo mansion in Cangyuanli is the most difficult final boss room.
Concentrating his thoughts, Xu Yuan smiled lightly and shook his head, threw this unrealistic idea out of his mind, and raised his hand to press the wooden door in front of him.
Most of the area of Xiangguo's mansion is the outer court, and the inner court for the direct descendants is actually not that big.
There is one for each of the four brothers and sisters, one for Xu Yinhe, a study room, and a main hall where they eat together.
Thinking, Xu Yuan walked in.
What came into view was a familiar stone road, with some unknown flowers and plants planted on both sides, and the main hall was at the end more than ten meters away.
At this moment, an old and a young are already sitting in the main hall.
The rain was falling, falling along the old tiles from the eaves like bead curtains, and splashing ripples in the puddles formed in the yard.
But the two of them didn't wait for him, they had already started to move their chopsticks.
Seeing this, Xu Yuan smiled unconsciously, and quickly stepped forward
In the main hall of the inner court, there is no carved dragon or phoenix layout, just a square table, the kind that can sit two people on each side, which is quite simple.
Because this inner court belongs to the real restricted area of Xiangguo Mansion.
Xu Yinhe personally set the rules.
Except for their family members, no one else is allowed to enter, even Lou Ji's high-level officials are not allowed to enter the restricted area.
There are no outsiders, so naturally there is no need for those ostentations.
Although it was the day when Xu Yuanchu returned to the Imperial Capital, neither the father nor the son intended to wash him off.
The lunch meal is still four meat, two vegetables and one soup, the same as before.
This is the standard if there are not enough people. If there are all people, there will be more meat and one vegetable.
but
people, probably not all.
“.”
In the small main hall, there are only the crisp ding-dong sound of chopsticks hitting the porcelain bowl, and the sound of rain outside.
After Xu Yuan said hello, Xu Yinhe nodded, and then he sat down.
There were no pleasantries, no greetings, as if he hadn't been out for two years, but went out in the morning and came back at noon.
Hangchi Hangchi planed the food, the father and son did not speak.
It's not that there are any rules, Xu Yinhe is not a strict father, let alone talking while eating, even if you overturn the table after eating, he won't say anything.
As long as you are ready to be hung up and beaten by Xu Changge afterwards.
After a long silence,
Xu Yinhe slowly put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Yuan who was returning home:
"Your marriage contract will take some time to complete."
Xu Yuan raised his eyes when he heard the words, pondered a little, and asked:
"Why?"
Xu Yinhe didn't mean to hide anything, and said directly:
"Marquis Wu Cheng has gone to the north, so the marriage has to wait for him to come back."
Xu Yuan frowned immediately when he heard this.
Wu Chenghou went to the north?
This message is a bit big.
Now he has already experienced the power of the military formation, and learned a lot of information along the way, so naturally he will no longer underestimate this Great Yan military **** as he did before.
The first-rank and second-rank powerhouses can use some casual tactics against the army formation, but this style of tactics is rarely used on the real battlefield, because basically as long as they go there, there is a high probability that meat buns will beat dogs.
Military exercises are different from conventional exercises and belong to a completely different path.
Gather the strength of thousands of soldiers into one body.
Although except for some perverted and ruthless people, any practitioner of the same level can hang up and fight the generals who build the army formation, but as long as the soldiers perform their exercises, even if they do not form an army formation, the strength of the generals will be geometric under the resonance of Yuan Qi Shape growth, five senses, mind and soul, strength and so on.
As long as the strong follower stops the attacker for a while, the strong attacker will basically never return.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan asked in a low voice:
"Only Mr. Zong can't handle it?"
Zong Qingsheng commanded the Black Scale Army. Of course, there is no need to say much about the cultivation of the army. Now one is not enough, and even Wu Chenghou has gone.
Hearing this question, after pondering for a moment, Xu Yinhe calmly replied:
"Things are a bit complicated. Generally speaking, those foreigners in the desert seem to have reached an alliance with the barbarians."
This father said it lightly, but the meaning contained in it almost includes many aspects.
Xu Yuan sorted out his thoughts a little and asked:
"Father, can you let me see the specific situation."
Since parting with Lou Ji, the intelligence leader, Xu Yuan's source of information for the past two months has been basically only relying on the official newspaper issued by the government.
And the newspapers in that mansion are basically all about singing and dancing, and the war in the northern border is basically smooth sailing.
During the past two months, the fighting in the northern border has not stopped, but seems to have escalated again.
This war, which has never been written in Cangyuan, seems to be the beginning of a troubled world.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan felt a little heavy in his heart.
Xu Yinhe stared at Xu Yuan's expression for a few breaths, and smiled softly:
"Changtian, are you interested in this battle?"
Xu Yuan put down his chopsticks, took out three teacups, poured each person a cup, and said:
"The emperor wants to eradicate the surrounding alien races. If the barbarians form an alliance with the desert, we don't have to meet the Li family's swordsmen for the time being."
The rebellious words fell gently in the room, Xu Yinhe didn't show any expression:
"The situation in the northern border is not very good now. Many of our supply lines have been cut off, and now a large part of them are just relying on Sumeru."
Xu Yuan immediately understood when he heard this, and asked:
"The sect made it?"
Xu Yinhe didn't answer, but the darkness in his eyes still told Xu Yuan the answer.
Xu Yuan sighed upon seeing this.
Nearly a million troops face each other, and what they are fighting is a logistics.
Today's Dayan Royal Family and Xiangguo Mansion have all kinds of war supplies after decades of operation, but they can't send them to the front line.
The sect's eyeliner is almost all over the northern border, and people can sneak there in batches, but this method cannot be used for large-scale material delivery.
In other words, it can only be sent with Sumeru Ring.
But the capacity of a conventional Xumijie is about 4X4X4.
Thinking for a few breaths, Xu Yuan suddenly remembered something and said:
"Father, do you mean that now we can only use Sumeru Ring to deliver supplies?"
Xu Yinhe didn't answer, but glanced sideways at Xu Changge.
Seeing this look, Xu Changge, who has always been the boss, honestly took out a paper file from Xumijie and put it on the Sifang table.
Xu Yuan didn't look at it right away. He had to report some things to the father first:
"If you need Xu Mijie, I found a secret place near the Guanyin Mountain Range during this trip."
A few minutes late, sorry
