The villain system of Mingyue in Qin Dynasty

The sky is blue and the clouds are white, and the water and grass are lush. The green fields are long and the plains are flat. Soldiers rode horses and bent their bows in the wild, while herdsmen drove sheep and cattle in the suburbs.

Standing on the city wall, you can see far into the distance. The green mountains and gurgling white water merge into one, stretching as far as you can see.

The terrain of Yunzhong City is high and steep, surrounded by fertile plains, with Wuquan and Baiqu flowing through it.

Since King Wuling of Zhao was riding and shooting in Hu uniforms, the military strength of the Zhao state had become stronger. Zhongshan was destroyed, and Loufan and Lin Hu were driven to the north. Zhao Jun attacked all the way north and established a city here for a hundred years.

For more than a hundred years, Yunzhong County has been providing war horses, food and grass to Zhao State, and also has the important task of defending Beihu. The Great Wall of Zhao State built along the Yinshan Mountains passes through the three counties of Dai, Yanmen and Yunzhong.

After Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, it brought Yunzhong under its jurisdiction. In order to defend Beihu, Emperor Qin ordered the construction of the Great Wall to begin, connecting and adding to the original Great Walls of the three kingdoms of Qin, Zhao and Yan.

At this moment, hundreds of thousands of laborers are building the Great Wall on the long border of the empire. The Great Wall has a beacon built on it. Depending on the terrain, the specific defensive measures for each section of the Great Wall are also different.

In Yunzhong County, the Great Wall is used as the defense line and Yunzhong City is supported. The territory is long and narrow from east to west, with two large cities, Yuanyang and Xianyang, built at both ends. Extending westward from Yunzhong territory to Jiuyuan, it is now where Da Qin gathers heavy troops.

It has been four years since Ying Ziyi was demoted to Yunzhong.

In the past four years, the world situation has changed drastically.

Since that year, Beihu went south in large numbers, invaded border counties, burned, killed and looted, and even Jiuyuan City almost changed hands.

Emperor Qin was furious and decided to attack the Xiongnu in the north and capture the land of HN.

Within four years, the empire, a weapon of war, was once again in action. Soldiers and horses were mobilized from all over the country to transport grain and grass. After a long period of preparation and planning, the border areas had experienced several small-scale battles for livestock land in the past few years, and the war between the empire and the Huns was about to begin.

The area inside and outside the Hetao was originally a place for the Huns to herd horses and sheep. Since the death of Touman Chanyu, the rights of the Xiongnu tribe have been controlled by the nobles of the three surnames, and the territory directly under Touman in the past was also divided among these three surnames.

Faced with the aggressive offensive of the Qin army, the three surnames were forced to jointly respect Mao Dun as the new Xiongnu Chanyu, and gave him a small piece of territory on the northern edge of Yinshan Mountain as the royal court. The nobles of the three surnames each occupied fertile livestock lands inside and outside the Hetao.

The three surnames set up the Shanyu Royal Court to the north of Yinshan Mountain, which is not far nor close. Firstly, it is convenient for them to monitor and control, and secondly, they are afraid of getting too close to the traditional territory of the Xiongnu, gaining prestige and getting out of their control.

Regarding this situation, Maodun Shanyu didn't seem to mind. He took the small tribesmen and horses he had surrendered in the north and settled in the royal court peacefully.

Moton took his men with him every day, rode horses, shot eagles, and hunted in the wilderness. He seemed to be happy to be his empty-handed Shanyu.

The nobles of the three surnames felt very relieved when they saw the appearance of their new Shanyu. In addition to taking their own soldiers and horses to worship the Shanyu at intervals, they usually transported some cattle, sheep and horses, as well as some from the south. Cloth and ironware.

Until now, the war was about to break out, and there was still controversy within the Xiongnu over whether to fight the empire. Among the three surnames of the Xiongnu, the Lan family and the Subu family advocated resisting Qin, while the Huyan family said that the Qin army was powerful and could not resist.

The reason is that the territories of the Lan family and the Xubu family in the Hetao area are mainly concentrated in the fertile plains along the Huang HN Bank and connected to Jiuyuan, while the Huyan family's territories are from the north bank to the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain.

In other words, the Huyan clan was unwilling to lose soldiers from their own tribe for the sake of the territory of the other two clans. There was a lot of quarrel within the Xiongnu over this.

Within the empire, the old forces of the Kanto countries have become increasingly peaceful in recent years.

First, the Prince of Qin was demoted to Yunzhong, and their expected son Fusu was more and more likely to inherit the throne. There was no need to carry out such head-turning activities as fighting against Qin.

Two, four years ago, the Xiang family held a wedding banquet for the prince of Chu and the princess of Zhao, but they were attacked on the wedding night. The nobles from various countries and key figures from hundreds of families who went to attend the wedding banquet were ambushed by the army and suffered heavy losses. The prince of Chu State, Xiong Xin, was even brutally killed.

However, those who escaped that night remained silent about what happened at the wedding banquet that night, and no one wanted to elaborate. The internal organization of the anti-Qin forces, which was originally under the command of Prince Fusu, was severely damaged later. In the past few years, it has been dormant in the dark, recuperating and recuperating.

Within the empire, everything was calm for a while.

Yunling, a Taoist sect.

Green mountains and clear waters, a clear spring sliding down from the mountains.

Wangyou, the princess of Zhao and the widow of the prince of Chu, was sitting cross-legged on a protruding rock in the spring with a calm expression.

The zhenqi was circulating around her body, and her mood fluctuated with it, as anxious as the boiling spring water around her.

Xiaoyaozi came to Wangyou unknowingly, stroking his long beard and said: "Wangyou, you still can't let go?"

"Ying Zheng killed all my people, and Ying Ziyi even killed my nominal husband on my wedding night. Now I am homeless. Master, I can't let go." Wangyou didn't speak, and the sound of nature's sound transmission resounded between the two of them.

"I have already said that if you can't let go, my master will not let you go down the mountain." Xiaoyaozi sighed and said. Wangyou's mood changed at this moment, and he was filled with utter hatred, and his expression became more and more ferocious.

Xiaoyaozi felt helpless, and he could understand the hatred in Wangyou's heart. In the first battle, the Taoist clan also suffered heavy losses. Only a few of the elders and disciples who went to attend the wedding banquet escaped.

The Taoist sect was on relatively good terms among many forces. They acted secretly, and the elders of the sect who did not attend the wedding banquet were not assassinated after the incident. However, among other sects, there are many cases where the entire sect's chief helmsman was uprooted afterwards.

Four years ago, Wangyou Wangqiao escaped from an ambush. He wanted to go to Yunzhong immediately, but was stopped by Xiaoyaozi.

Xiaoyaozi understood that given their condition at that time, their emotions were extremely unstable, and they might be caught and strangled by the Qin army before they could reach Yunzhong.

For Wangyou, if he can't let go of this hatred in his heart, then even if he goes down the mountain, he will not end well in the end.

Therefore, Xiaoyaozi took the two of them back to the mountain gate and stayed there for four years.

"Wangyou, you can continue your cultivation here!" Xiaoyaozi said, turning around and planning to leave.

"Master, how is Wangqiao?" Wangyou asked.

"she's fine!"

Having said this, Xiaoyaozi had to sigh, maybe because of his different experiences since childhood, Wangqiao's temperament is more tenacious. Wangqiao has gradually let go of the hatred in his heart after these four years of self-cultivation.

No, to say let go is a bit exaggerated.

But at least she is not like Wangyou, who is obsessed with hatred and unable to extricate herself.

"Whether you want to go down the mountain or seek revenge on that person! As long as the spring water around you is no longer as scorching and boiling as it is now. I will let you go down the mountain."

Xiaoyaozi waved his long sleeves, turned and left, leaving only these words.

Farmhouse, Lieshan Hall.

Tian Yan sat in the yard, looking at the scenery outside the house that he had seen countless times with a sudden look on his face.

Since that night, the Sixth Hall of the Nongjia suffered heavy losses, but Shengqi successfully ascended to the position of the leader of the heroes.

After that night, none of the four heads of the Tian clan in the farmhouse survived. In order to save her, Tian Yan's father resisted the pursuing troops, escorted her away, and was eventually killed.

The Zhu family and Situ Wanli escaped by chance.

Afterwards, Tian Yan succeeded his father as the leader of Lieshan Hall, and Tian Ci succeeded his second uncle Tian Hu as the leader of Chiyou Hall. The remaining two hall leader positions are held by Shengqi's close confidant Guang and Shennong Hall's second leader Liu Ji.

For a time, the power of the Tian family in the farm family was extremely severely weakened.

However, after Shengqi became the leader of the knights, he did not exterminate the Tian family's influence among the farmers, but adopted a policy of appeasement.

The peasant disciples all knew that Sheng Qi was a member of Prince Qin, but after he became the leader of the knights, he went against the norm and adopted a neutral policy. He no longer bowed to Prince Qin as before, nor turned a deaf ear to the goodwill unleashed by Young Master Fusu.

Without the support of Sheng Qi, Prince Qin would not even have a foothold in the peasant family. The situation was different for the young master Fusu. Among the six farmhouse halls, except for Kuei Hall, which was run by Guang, Shengqi's cronies, the other five hallmasters all expressed their support for Fusu. And Chi Youtang and Lieshantang were his most important men.

Fusu was happy to see such a situation, so he didn't have much in the way of Sheng Qi inheriting the position of the hero.

"Hall Master, this is a silk letter from Young Master Fusu."

The maid Xiaolan came from the far corner of the corridor and handed a small wooden box to Tian Yan.

She opened the wooden box, took out the silk strip, glanced at it, and put it aside.

"Hall Master, what did His Highness the eldest son say?" Xiaolan asked.

"His Highness said that the wood for the construction of the new capitals of Chang'an and Taosai was transported from Baiyue and passed through our territory of Lieshan Hall. The emperor attaches great importance to this batch of wood and hopes that we will take care of it." Tian Yan said without interest. .

"Chang'an and Taosai, wasn't it suggested by Prince Qin to build them? Have they not been completed yet?" Xiaolan said doubtfully.

"No. The scale of the new capital is very large, and many places have not yet been completed. The wood transported this time is mainly used to build the Weiyang Palace, the main palace in the imperial city. As for Taosai? If it is completed, it will be After Hangu, it is the first pass in Guanzhong."

"Huh? Although this matter is important, is it necessary for His Highness Fusu to send a letter in person?" Xiaolan said doubtfully at this time.

Over the years, Xiaolan, a maid from Fusu Mansion, has been by Tian Yan's side, becoming like a sister.

Xiaolan picked up the silk strip, took a look at it, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much. How is the girl doing? It turns out that His Highness sent you a special letter, which is to 'pretend for public benefit for personal gain'!"

Facing Xiaolan's teasing laughter, Tian Yan also had a smile on his face: "You little girl, are you laughing at me? Make sure I don't tear your mouth apart."

The two immediately started fighting.

………

Mohist family.

After Guancheng was captured and destroyed, the surrounding area was occupied by the Qin army.

It was only after Prince Qin was banished to the north. The prince helped Su go to the Qin Emperor and withdrew the Qin army stationed around Guancheng. The reason! Although the mountains near Guancheng are dangerous, the distance from nearby towns is too remote, making it difficult to transport food and grass. Moreover, there are few people around, and the cost of garrisoning a large army is too high.

Emperor Qin finally agreed.

After the Qin army retreated, the Mo family returned again and occupied the city.

However, this organ city has been completely destroyed, and many places are in ruins.

During the past four years, several leaders of the Mohist family recalled Mohist disciples from various places, gathered manpower, cleared away the ruins and stones in the city, and rebuilt several major areas in the city.

Gao Jianli stood on the top of the mountain. The gears in the ink core below were slowly turning, maintaining the operation of the entire machine city.

"If it weren't for Young Master Fusu, we in the Mo family don't know when we would be able to return to Guancheng City, and I'm afraid we wouldn't be in the same state as we are now."

Gao Jianli let out a long sigh and heard the thieves behind him. Master Ban and others nodded repeatedly.

After that night, surprisingly, the six leaders of the Mo family were all safe and sound without any damage.

"Yes, Young Master Fusu's kindness to us is indeed profound, and we will definitely repay it with our own lives," said Thief Zhi.

"At present, all the facilities in the agency city have been completed, except for that place." Master Ban said with a strange expression.

"Don't rush to build that place now. After all, it is the most important place for our Mo family. It won't be too late to wait until dawn when we come back." Gao Jianli thought for a while and said.

"By the way, how is Tianming doing now?" Xue Nu asked. Their little giant has been wandering around in the world for many years, and there has been no news for a long time.

Gao Jianli smiled and said, "Information was sent just last night. Tianming and Shaoyu Shilan are in Nanyang County at the moment."

"Have you not found Yue'er yet?" Duan Murong asked.

"It is said that they found it. They found the Yin Yang family's stronghold in the mountains and saw Shao Siming there, but Yue'er did not see them in the end." Gao Jianli said.

"Why?" Duan Murong asked anxiously. She has taken care of Gao Yue since she was a child and grew up. She has a very deep relationship with her like sisters and mother and daughter. Over the years, Duan Murong never gave up looking for news about Gao Yue.

"I don't know either." Gao Jianli shook his head and said, "But Tianming didn't give up just yet. He is still outside the stronghold of the Yin Yang family, pestering the disciples of the Yin Yang family every day, trying to find Yue'er."

"Haha! That's the good thing about our giant, he is thick-skinned." Big Iron Hammer laughed. Looking at the eyes of the other people, he felt a little embarrassed and then changed his words: "It's perseverance! Yes, it's perseverance." Don’t pull it out!”

As he said this, everyone also laughed.

"It's great that Tianming Shaoyu and the others were able to recover from that blow and become so energetic."

As the snow girl finished speaking, the expressions of those present became very subtle. Not only Tianming Shaoyu, but also these people also suffered a big blow after that.

Unlike Tianming Shaoyu, they are more mature.

But that's it, the leader of the Moh family still can't believe that shocking fact, that dust-covered taboo that hundreds of schools of thought, princes and nobles dare not mention.

That man who was exiled to the north!
