Donghai County, Linyungang.

This is a few deep-water ports in Dongchen. Two pieces of land are like horns extending into the sea, forming an excellent shelter bay.

It is another trade season. I don’t know how many ships set off from this port and head to the countries and the south of the East China Sea, bringing a steady stream of pearl agate, ore and yam, which quickly transforms into huge amounts of wealth.

But at this time, the real upper-class people in the port had a layer of haze in their hearts.

Northern Yan went south, and although he mainly attacked Qing Kingdom, Eastern Chen was also attacked.

In addition, the turmoil that occurred in Dongchen was no less than that in Qingguo. For example, when the Qingdu was broken, the masters of Zhengyangdao came out in full swing and started a massacre in Dongchen. It was even rumored that even the king of Dongchen was attacked, and people were panicked.

In the ninth year of Yunzhong, the country of Qing was in turmoil and the heavy pressure fell on Dong Chen.

Once you think of this, no matter how much money you make, you will rarely see joy on your face.

"Oh... the storm is coming!"

In a chamber of commerce, Gongsun Xiaobai stared at the sky and sighed.

The Gongsun family is a powerful family in Dongchenzhong. Once Dongchen is in trouble, it will inevitably affect its foundation.

"The family has secretly transferred personnel to the south... However, I heard that the national policy of Beiyan has also changed since the death of the previous generation of kings, and began to win over major families. Therefore, the elders of the family are ready to wait and see again..."

This kind of aristocratic family has lush branches and leaves, and its foundation is in Dongchen. How can it be moved away just by moving?

Even if the Dongchen country was destroyed, if the latecomers wanted to consolidate their rule, they had to compromise with them!

Before, Beiyan massacres and had to leave. At this time, it seemed that there was a turning point.

"Young Master! All the things have been done. Everyone has boarded the boat, clear water, all the doctors have been prepared, and the secret guards of the clan are accompanying..."

A manager came and saluted respectfully.

"Is that so? That's good... Since you are going to the south, the gifts must be prepared! The path of King Jing has been opened, and the vassals below cannot ignore it..."

Gongsun Xiaobai ordered.

The wars in the south were affected for a while, but King Jing quickly calmed down and soon recovered, even more prosperous than before.

However, when he thought of King Jing's identity, Gongsun Xiaobai couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Ten years ago, the incident of Donglinggang was immediately vivid in my mind.

He and King Jing can be said to have a friendship.

Even went out to sea with the other party to trade in Izumo.

Although I was cheated, the Fujiwara family has risen and defeated the Hei clan, but it can't be considered a cheat. Instead, it smells like jumping out of the fire pit.

As for the later period, the other party occupied Yunzhong and took the position of Yunzhongjun, Gongsun Xiaobai was also a little envious.

Even if the young master of the aristocratic family truly masters the strength, he may not have a true county lord.

Afterwards, the opponent killed the demon Kun, defeated the coalition forces, became famous in the East China Sea, and officially left a group of peers behind. Then, Long Fei Jiutian was out of control.

By now, they have been unified in the south and called "King of Jing"! Ning, Yue and other countries have all surrendered!

"The other person is only twenty-seven years old? This is really... how should people talk about it?"

Gongsun Xiaobai sent him to take charge of the affairs and smiled bitterly in his heart.

If he had the intention to compete before, he would have lost all his thoughts now.

The king in the south seemed to have emerged from the sky, taking away the glory of all young people in this generation, making people almost unable to look directly at it.

Even though he was still a little old relationship with Xiong Hei and other subordinates, he followed the path of Jing Kingdom and transferred some property and tribe members.

Although my family has taken root in Dongchen, it is like a big tree and cannot be moved without authorization, it is a matter of course to divide some side branches to avoid it.

"When the Northern Yan destroys Qing Kingdom, the next one should be Dong Chen?"

Gongsun Xiaobai sighed: "I don't know what choice will be made in the end of the family?"

For aristocratic families, all national honors are empty, and only their own interests are worth protecting at all costs. It is even more common to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens.

Gongsun Xiaobai had already guessed what choice would his family make if Northern Yan defeated Dongchen.

"But as today's trend is going on, King Jing will take the lead in unifying the south and take the lead!"

While thinking, bursts of exclamations suddenly came from outside: "Boat! There is a boat!"

"Just a ship, what's the ghost called?"

After being interrupted, Gongsun Xiaobai frowned with a beautiful brow and walked out of the study.

"Young Master, there are so many boats on the dock!"

A manager ran over and looked panicked: "It's a troop transport ship!"

"Soldiers?!"

Gongsun Xiaobai looked shaking: "I haven't heard of any actions of the navy?"

"It's not from Dong Chen, but from the warships in the south!"

"hiss……"

Gongsun Xiaobai immediately took a breath, ran out hurriedly, and came to the dock.

I saw a towering fleet like clouds, slowly sailing into the port, and teams of ingenious soldiers came down and arranged neatly.

Bang bang! Bang bang!

Heavy footsteps sounded from outside the pier.

It was a group of Dongchen soldiers who were maintaining order: "According to the order of the county magistrate, the port will be temporarily requisitioned and martial law will be implemented. You will immediately return to our houses and there will be no mistakes!"

‘Why did my family not know about this news before?!’

Gongsun Xiaobai's eyes widened and he had already seen clearly. The ship coming was the ship of King Jing from the south!

A bad premonition instantly surged throughout the body.

Looking at the soldiers coming to drive away the crowd, he waved his hand and returned home with everyone.

Not long after, a senior manager came back and saluted: "Young Master... I have already found out clearly, and these county soldiers are also confused. But today I just received the military order and came to join the friendly troops!"

"Friends?"

"Yes, the king borrowed troops from Jing State, and the king of Jing personally led a large army of 100,000, and it's here..."

The manager wiped the sweat from his forehead and said tremblingly.

"Didn't King Jing send Xiang Wuji, the general of the North, to lead 100,000 troops to assist Qingguo?" Gongsun Xiaobai is indeed a smart person. His eyes rolled and he immediately understood: "What a trick to hide the world! The king... the king no longer trusts our aristocratic family!"

For King Dong Chen, all civil and military officials below can be surrendered. If the Northern Yan wants to consolidate its rule, it must win over the aristocratic families.

But only he, the king, has no way out!

Therefore, it is very normal to take over Duan Yu's olive branch.

The conditions offered by Duan Yu were even more relaxed than those given to King Wu and Yue. King Dongchen could still continue to maintain the country and the country and act as a mighty man, but he just recognized a sect leader country.

Giving up the title of great power and obtaining reinforcements is a great deal.

However, for Gongsun Xiaobai, it was a very dangerous signal that the king had borrowed troops so much that his family had not heard any rumors before.

"Does the king... have no longer trust our aristocratic families? Or do you simply distrust the Gongsun family?"

Gongsun Xiaobai felt that his heart was about to fall into the abyss.

Suddenly, he listened to the neat footsteps outside the door and suddenly realized: "King Jing's northern expedition, the situation in the north has changed drastically... My family probably has to change some strategies."

At least, he has some relationship with Duan Yu and must make full use of it.

...

Donghai County, military camp.

"The king, the vanguard has set up camp, and the prefect of Donghai County and the county magistrate are asking for a visit outside!"

Qin Feiyu bowed and said.

"Let them wait!"

Since he has come, Duan Yu doesn't care about what his attitudes are like for Dong Chen and his group of people.

In front of him, a grand map of Dongchen was set aside, marked with a large number of marks and arrows.

"In the Qing State, Xiang Wuji led 100,000 troops north, with Tianhe on his back, and Qing State as his ally. I don't want him to defeat Beiyan, just hold Yan Kuangshuo's main force!"

Duan Yu pointed to the direction of Qingguo.

After the troops transport was over, he would ask the Navy to lead the flexibly support, which was also the intention of being a military supervisor.

This time, the Jing Kingdom sent 300,000 troops, and the difference was also divided.

The 100,000 army led by Duan Yu personally is a real direct lineman, with the best training and equipment, and is also the capital to defend the throne by King Jing.

This time, he brought all of them to Dongchen Donghai County, and he personally led them.

The 100,000 army led by Xiang Wuji was the vassal coalition of the Jing Kingdom and the 50,000 support provided by the Yue Hou.

In addition, there was Ning Hou Yuechao who led 50,000 Ning Guo troops, plus many Southern Boguo coalition forces of 50,000, which was also 100,000, crossing the lower reaches of Tianhe and entering Dongchen.
