Chapter 1017: The Front Line Shrinks, News from His Majesty
After hearing their suggestions, Chang Baishan was silent for a moment and then nodded slowly.
"Okay, but now there's a problem. How are we going to get back after we've taken advantage of them?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent. They all knew that the South Pass was blocked.
It’s obvious that they are not allowed to go back!
Since they are not kind and righteous, Changbai Mountain will naturally not give them more chances.
The two sides began to play the mantis catching the cicada.
However, this time he did not sit back and wait, but instead took the initiative to attack.
Since he was willing to take the initiative, Chang Baishan was not in a hurry.
He thought for a moment and then said:
"Everyone stay here tonight to rest and come back the day after tomorrow."
Upon hearing the news, everyone expressed their support.
So everyone prepared to leave and go back to rest.
They had been exhausted from the long journey and hadn't had a good rest yet.
Now that they have the troops just now, it would be a good thing to help them plunder.
"By the way, telegraph this letter back to Shui Liancheng and give it to Chu Ying."
At this time, Chang Baishan took out another letter and handed it to his troops.
Let them contact Chu Ying by telegram.
Soon, the situation in Changbai Mountain was connected with Chu Ying's.
Chu Ying also learned about Chang Baishan and their situation through telegram.
Just at this moment, Sun Jinshan, who was in charge of the local newspaper, ran over and found Chu Ying.
"I want to tell you something important!"
Sun Jinshan came in front of Chu Ying with a mysterious look on his face.
Chu Ying said in surprise:
"You're becoming increasingly dishonest. I gave you the telegram, and now you're even keeping the firsthand intelligence from me?"
Hearing his words, Sun Jinshan scratched his head and waved his hand quickly, saying:
"No, of course not. How could I dare to do that? I just want to tell you that this matter is really big!"
"What on earth is going on?"
"I just received news that the emperor behind us seems to be coming over."
"what?!"
The moment he heard this, Chu Ying immediately stood up from the stool.
"Your Majesty is coming over, such a big thing, and you're just telling me now!"
"Hurry up and arrange for people to prepare!"
Chu Ying has achieved what he has today and has gained control of the Tongbao Pavilion of the entire Shenmu Kingdom.
It’s all because of Qin Ming’s support behind the scenes.
Since Qin Ming and his team developed the technology of electrolytic silver, they have successfully produced large quantities of silver.
Such means also made them extremely rich in silver.
It can be placed here with Chu Ying for investment in Shenmu Kingdom.
It was through this path that Chu Ying ascended to a high position in Tongbao Pavilion.
It is because I know who I am counting on.
Although something happened in Changbai Mountain, when Chu Ying learned of Qin Ming's arrival, he had to do everything possible, both in terms of welcoming and etiquette.
This is the only way to show his attitude.
After quickly arranging someone to welcome them, Chu Ying took Sun Jinshan to think about the whole story together.
"Why did His Majesty come here so suddenly? Did something happen?"
"I don't know either, but it seems that Chang Baishan's status is very high, and it's worth His Majesty to make a personal trip."
Sun Jinshan rubbed his chin and spoke in surprise.
Originally, he thought Chang Baishan was just a small guard under Qin Ming.
Even if your martial arts skills are slightly higher, it probably won't be of any use.
But in fact, the situation was not as simple as he imagined.
For the safety of Changbai Mountain, Qin Ming was actually willing to walk out of the Western Region base camp.
Even came to the border of Shenmu Kingdom.
This situation really made Sun Jinshan, a businessman, feel very strange.
Hearing what Sun Jinshan said, Chu Ying immediately glared at him.
"Why do you have such thoughts? Do you think His Majesty is a heartless and ungrateful person?"
"You don't know, Chang Baishan followed him to conquer the world. Now, in order to raise money for the construction of the Western Region, he even took the risk alone and ran to the Shenmu Kingdom, which is why he is in danger."
"If I were His Majesty, I would definitely come here!"
When he heard the news, Sun Jinshan immediately slapped his mouth with his hand.
"I said the wrong thing. It seems we have to contribute a little on this trip, otherwise His Majesty will really think we are just slacking off here."
Chu Ying glanced at him and said lightly:
"Of course. Now we have to go gather intelligence on the South Pass and make sure they return safely. Since His Majesty has come here in person, Fang Yuanjian should be back soon."
Qin Ming and his team must have very powerful means of transportation.
If Qin Ming were to come over, Fang Yuanjian, who had been staying in the Western Regions, should also be back soon.
At that time, both parties will have a new communication.
After discussing these issues, Chu Ying's mind was in turmoil and he thought about many things.
Sun Jinshan quickly went downstairs to start preparing.
As for Chu Ying.
I am thinking hard about what to do next.
Just when everyone in Tongbao Pavilion started to get active.
Another force is also quietly paying attention to the changes outside the South Gate.
This force is naturally the local gentry.
These local wealthy and powerful families also have a lot of power, and some even have a group of retainers.
The most prosperous family has at least a thousand retainers.
With so many people, each one of them contributes to their combat effectiveness.
When they come together, they are naturally extremely terrifying.
As soon as the troops left today, some news was passed from Nanguankou to the local big families.
At noon that day, the three major local families, the Qian family, the Liu family, and the Sun family, all gathered together.
It is actually very rare that the three forces can work together at this moment.
The reason for saying this is mainly because the three of them fought fiercely in the past few years.
Not only because of local resources but also land.
Coupled with the struggle between the three parties, the three forces are basically jealous of each other whenever they meet.
However, when facing the appearance of Chang Baishan, their performance was surprisingly consistent.
There was no surprise in the alliance to fight against Changbaishan!
The reason is simple. The Wulin Alliance where Changbaishan is located has infringed upon their interests.
As the power of the Wulin Alliance gradually expanded.
Now many people below no longer listen to the three major families.
They even began to submit to the Wulin Alliance because the land and business taxes required there were less than those of the three major families.
This is also the reason why people are willing to go there.
But once the farmers and industries under his command are taken away by the Wulin Alliance.
It is equivalent to damaging their own interests.
There is a saying that goes, "Destroying someone's financial resources is like killing their parents."
Now the three major families have been enduring and waiting for the critical moment to make a move.
