The second prince rode a high-headed horse, and he roamed beautifully.

"This is the county seat of Nanshan in Shangyu County......? It is not as prosperous as the small tribes in northern Xinjiang. ”

The houses on both sides of the street are depressed and dilapidated, and there are almost no traces of merchants.

"It is said that Shangyu County was also a good place in the past, and the merchants and traders were prosperous, but now things are not people. ”

The second prince's staff rode one step behind, and while looking around, he sighed.

"Hahaha - it's just a small town on the border of the Central Plains, where can it prosper if it is prosperous?"

The second prince laughed disdainfully, and the 20,000 private soldiers he brought were stationed outside the city, and he himself brought thousands of elites into the city.

The 20,000 elites were cultivated by him after he went bankrupt, and he loved them like eyeballs on weekdays.

In order to monopolize the benefits, he bit his teeth and crossed his heart, and directly pulled out all his belongings.

He took the initiative to ask the king of northern Xinjiang to take over the three cities of Shangyu, and the original guards were sent to other places.

The second prince sat down with a golden sword, and the chief secretary of Nanshan County stood tremblingly in front of him, waiting for orders.

"Report how many soldiers there are in the city?"

The chief bookkeeper trembled and said, "There are six thousand seven hundred guards in the city. ”

The second prince turned his head and sneered at the staff, "There are only 6,700 people in Nanshan County, what can such a small number of guards do? Chongzhou Liuxi is also enough to sneer...... The lonely king heard that those sour Confucian students in Dongqing had been saying that they wanted to regain their territory. The garrison of Nanshan County was so weak, and Liu Xi didn't even send troops to fight back? It seems that Dongqing's recovering territory is just a slogan. ”

The staff smiled and flattered the second prince, and said a lot of good things, which made the second prince feel comfortable.

The second prince looked confident in scolding Fang Yu and pointing out the country, and said eloquently, "Although Liu Xixiao has planted a little, she is a daughter's family after all, and it is normal for her courage to be inferior to a man." Although there are only 6,700 garrisons in Nanshan County, all of them are the elite of northern Xinjiang, and they can be used as ten on the battlefield. Liu Xi is touted by the outside world no matter how bad, in the end she is still a timid daughter's family, and it is difficult to become a big deal. ”

The smile on the staff's face was a little embarrassed, but on the surface, he still catered to the second prince and praised him comfortably.

Compared with the second prince's blind arrogance, the staff is still a little sober.

Not to mention anything else, he can understand why Jiang Pengji did not move troops to recover the three cities of Shangyu.

First, fighting a war is not something that can be fought.

No matter how the people of Dongqing complain, the three cities of Shangyu have been ceded by Dongqing to Northern Xinjiang, which is the territory of Northern Xinjiang!

If you rashly send troops to fight back, it means that you will completely tear your face with the northern Xinjiang and officially declare war on the northern Xinjiang.

Second, the cost of fighting a war is too great, and the preliminary preparations are also extraordinarily long.

If you go to war without any preparation, what is the difference between that and your own destruction?

Third, anyway, the three cities of Shangyu have been ruined like this by Northern Xinjiang, and there is not much difference between recovering it two years earlier or two years later.

He didn't dare to say these words to the second prince, so as not to spoil the other party's interest.

"What His Royal Highness said is true. ”

The second prince laughed and said to his staff, "You still know the heart of the lonely king best." ”

Under the great joy, the second prince feasted and drank for two days to win over the local nobles.

Don't look at these northern Xinjiang nobles staying in the three cities of Shangyu, as if they were exiled, but they are also local snakes who have been in business for many years.

The three cities of Shangyu are regarded as the buffer zone on the border between northern Xinjiang and Dongqing, and they are also the most widespread smuggling areas for many goods.

Most of these items are war resources, and the profits are huge, even if the second prince sees it, he can't help but be greedy.

However, the happy times did not last long, and an urgent piece of information reached his ears.

"Newspaper—"

Outside the house, the high-pitched and hurried voice of the messenger was heard.

The second prince was drinking with people with a wine bottle, and when he heard this voice, the two sword eyebrows frowned unhappily.

"What's going on, dare to disturb Lone's interest?"

The messenger was breathing rapidly, and spoke with a bit of apprehension and nervousness.

"Returning to His Royal Highness, the patrol cavalry found the corpses of our soldiers outside Nanshan County, a total of twenty-five people. ”

"What?"

The rich smell of wine erupted from his nostrils, and the second prince slammed the wine bottle on the wine table, slamming it with a loud bang, deafening.

The staff on the side restrained their smiles and asked the messenger before the second prince got angry.

"Who killed them, and how did the twenty-five people die?"

The messenger spoke 1510.

Last night, when the patrol was handed over, it was found that a group of cavalry had not returned.

On the second day, the patrol cavalry found the body of the missing man not far from the post, and there were traces of a struggle near the body.

When the staff heard this, they chuckled in their hearts - not good!

"Where are the corpses now?"

"It's outside the temple. ”

"Lift it up!" The second prince's chest swelled with violent anger, and he raised his foot and kicked over the wine table, "I want to see who dares to do this." ”

There was a loud bang, so startled that the singers and dancers in the hall did not dare to move, trembling, like quails.

After a small sound of footsteps, the soldiers of the northern frontier carried the corpse into the temple.

In addition to these corpses, there are many clues found at the scene, the most important of which is a token.

This token is none other than the token of the Chongzhou soldiers.

The murder weapon left behind and the handwriting engraved on the murder weapon all point to Chongzhou.

After reading these ironclad evidence, the second prince clenched his fists angrily and gritted his teeth.

"It's a good Liu Xi, the lonely king hasn't troubled her yet, she came to provoke it first. ”

The second prince's anger soared, and the staff on the side secretly complained.

"Second Highness, further investigation is needed at this time. So hastily conclude that it was Chongzhou Liuxi's provocation, in case it is not......"

Before the staff could finish speaking, the second prince interrupted him in a loud voice, "What's so hasty about this? Who else has done this besides Liu Xi? Besides, even if Liu Xi didn't do it, so what? Lonely and Liu Xi, sooner or later, there will always be a battle." ”

The second prince took the initiative to invite Ying to come to Shangyu Three Cities, originally wanting to use Shangyu Three Cities as a springboard to sneak attack Jiang Pengji's granary.

Originally, they wanted to cultivate for two days before they started, but now that Chongzhou can't sit still and test them, how can the second prince tolerate it?

The staff was speechless.

For some reason, he felt that this was very unreliable.

The second prince said, "Liu Xi killed 25 orphans, and the orphans must be repaid tenfold." ”

The staff's eyelids jumped fiercely, and they watched the second prince send someone to invite the soldiers to discuss the military.

"When Gu takes away her granary, Liu Xi will have no food in her hands, look at how arrogant she is!"

According to the map, there are three granaries.

In these three places, the second prince has already sent someone to confirm that almost every place has two million stone of military rations stored.

What is this concept?

300,000 stones are enough for an army of 100,000 to eat for more than a month.

The military rations that Liu Xi has hoarded over the years are enough for an army of 100,000 to fight for two years!

It's a pity that Liu Xi's vision for employing people is not good, and he actually leaked such an important grain depot distribution map.

Once there is no food, she is dead!

The second prince looked at the direction of Chongzhou from afar and gritted his teeth fiercely.

"If Gu can't transport this food, Gu won't leave you a single rice or a mile!"

Those who can move are moved away, and those who can't be moved are burned directly!
