The Qin State in November is destined to go down in history and become a colorful January that changed the foundation of the Qin State for more than 100 years. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Deng Hong, the head of the Deng family, was transferred from the border army and returned to Yongdu, but at the same time he was named the king of Kaiping, leading Kaiping County from afar, allowing Kaiping County to be tax-autonomous, and at the same time commanding the national army, that is to say, Deng Hong replaced Li Zhi's previous position, but he had the glory that Li Zhi did not have, that is, he became the first king with a different surname in the history of Qin.

After leaving the army for nearly two years, Deng Pu once again returned to the border army and took over the position of his father Deng Hong.

But corresponding to this is the change of Bian's position. On the surface, the Bian clan was defeated in this Qin internal strife, the Ju clan was expelled from Yongdu, left the power center of the Qin State, and fell from the first clan of the Qin State that originally overpowered the Deng clan to a local powerhouse, but it cannot be seen that the Bian clan arrived at the Qin-Chu border with 20,000 thunder troops. Bian Wushuang succeeded his son Bian Wenzhong as the commander of the Qin-Chu border army, and the 100,000 border troops plus the 20,000 thunder army also fell into the hands of the Bian family.

With such an arrangement, the Qin State actually formed two major military groups, and although the Bian clan was defeated in an internal fight, it was defeated and not deadlocked, and its strength should not be underestimated. In fact, fundamentally speaking, the Qin State has changed from the previous triangular confrontation to the current confrontation between the two powers, and the Bian family and the royal family have been more firmly tied together after an incident, and the Bian family will make the royal family more assured to use them after losing the ability to threaten the royal family. Although the Deng clan won this infighting, on the other hand, they also completely embarked on the road of competing with the royal family.

And Deng Fang's death made Deng lose a big arm. In the Deng family, although Deng Hong is the head of the family, in fact, Deng Hong leads the border army all the year round, and Deng Fang is responsible for the operation and planning of the entire family, and Deng Fang is the head of the Qin intelligence organization. Without the strong support of intelligence, Deng lost his brightest pair of eyes in the future.

After Li Zhi knew that he would not be spared, he killed Deng Fang and accurately pinched Deng Shi's seven inches. Whether it is Deng Hong or Deng Pu, they lack the ability to control the overall situation above politics.

Deng Mansion has become the hottest place in Yongdu, and not long ago, this mansion was still the boundary of Yongdu. Although the Deng clan has great strength in the border army, in Yongdu, it has been extremely suppressed, and the people who are touching the Deng clan are all pressed and unable to turn over.

Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, now, outside the Deng Mansion, there is a lot of traffic. Countless officials flocked to him, and everyone wanted to dare to hug this freshly baked thigh.

If Deng Fang was still there, he would definitely open the door to welcome these guys who had avoided the Deng family in the past, even if he was disdainful in his heart, he would welcome them into the door with a smile on his face and accept them. But now, Deng Fang has become a corpse in a huge coffin in the Deng family's hall, and whether it is Deng Hong or Deng Pu, they are typical military styles, even if they don't hate this kind of wall grass, they are never willing to let them appear in the Deng Mansion at this time.

The only people who can enter the gate of the Deng Mansion to mourn are the frustrated officials of the Deng family who were previously suppressed by the royal family and the Bian family. Keeping the clouds open and seeing the moon, although his face was full of grief, his heart was really excited. Everyone knows deep down that their good days are coming.

In the side room next to the mourning hall, Deng Hong, the king of Kaiping, took off his armor and put on civilian clothes, but he looked even older, his hair was sparse and snow-white, his face was wrinkled with wrinkles, and his sharp eyes in the past also looked much more muddy at the moment.

The old man lost his son, and the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, so that this meritorious veteran of the Qin State couldn't hold on a little.

Sitting on the chair in the center, holding the back of the chair with both hands, his eyes passed through the open door, looking at the coffin in the middle of the lobby surrounded by cigarettes and Deng Fang's wife and children kneeling on both sides of the coffin.

Under him, Deng Pu and the officials of the Deng family sat on both sides to accompany him.

"Li Zhi, Li Zhi, you and I have been friends for a lifetime, and at the end of the day, it was you who killed my son with your own hands, my Deng family, in your heart, is it the root cause of the chaos in the Qin State?" He whispered angrily. "I, the Deng clan, just want to gather the strength of the whole country and boost the prestige of Great Qin, why do I think that this is the evidence that my Deng clan wants to rebel? Daqin, relying on the Bian family, these corpse vegetarian people, can protect the national fortune forever? ”

Everyone in the room was silent.

"Li Shuai, Li Shuai, you are wrong, the chaos has started, the great change has come, if you follow your set, you still can't concentrate the strength of the whole country together, my Daqin will really be finished. Looking at Qi Chuming, that country is not centralized and unified, under an order, the whole country dare not obey each other, only we Daqin, because of your Li Zhi's shrinkage, let us become like this? Containment, balance, what brings is internal friction, you do things, he pulls back his legs, how can it be successful? You're about to die, and you're still putting on a show like this, hahaha, it's ridiculous. ”

Deng Pu said in a deep voice: "Father, the emperor awarded you King Kaiping, which seems to be the honor of the first king with a different surname in the Qin State for more than a hundred years, but it is really harboring evil intentions. Kaiping is the territory we grabbed in the past, now the more the former is all returned to Ming, Qin Feng of the Ming Kingdom, will inevitably think about taking back this land, now he has no strength, but it does not mean that he will not do it in the future, once he quells the domestic turmoil, consolidate the domestic rule, once the national strength is enhanced, the eyes will inevitably be cast on us, this Kaiping King, is a medicine primer. ”

"yes, this eye medicine is not light. Taxes, officials are all in charge of my Kaiping King, that is to take Kaiping County as my Deng's private territory, so arranged, is to destroy our current cooperation with the Ming Kingdom, so that we both have a dislike, so as to pull the Ming Kingdom over. But this is a conspiracy, and that's what it is, but can I not Kaiping County, if not, how to raise an army? How to strengthen the army? Deng Hong sighed. Today's plan is only to make us stronger, so strong that the Ming Kingdom does not dare to provoke easily. You went to Kaiping County, and when you adhere to this strategy, you should give everything you should give, and you can't let you give a little. ”

Deng Pu nodded.

"In a year or two, the Ming Kingdom will not be able to do anything to us, it depends on our own situation." Deng Hong continued: "If we can't solve the problem of internal friction for a long time, then maybe it will be time. ”

"To eliminate internal friction, the first thing is to consolidate and strengthen our own strength. Father, a few days ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to see Xiao Qiang in the Tiger Prison Pass. Deng Pu said.

Deng Hong sneered, "He miscalculated, Xiao Qiang is the general I Deng Hong single-handedly raised, although he has now set up his own door, but let him betray me is something that I don't even think about." When I left Kaiping County, Xiao Qiang sent someone to see me with his son Jin. ”

"What did he say?" Deng Pu asked.

"He asked the old man for his son's beyond." Deng Hong's gaze passed through the door and looked at a young woman kneeling beside the coffin.

"Shu'er?" Deng Pu was taken aback.

"Exactly!" Deng Hong nodded.

"Father, there is a big mystery here, Shu'er is the eldest brother's daughter-in-law, and now that the eldest brother is gone, Shu'er should have a three-year filial piety period, Xiao Qiang's move gave him a three-year buffer period." Deng Pu frowned.

"All I want is his attitude." Deng Hong said: "You can get engaged first, and let Daqin take a look up and down, the border army of Qin is still firmly controlled by my Deng family." As long as we deal with the affairs of the court as soon as possible, Xiao Qiang will not repeat. ”

"The 100,000 border troops in the Luoying Mountains?" Deng Pu was unwilling. That's the troops he has led for many years, and he has poured half of his life into it.

Deng Hong shook his head: "Then don't think about it, Bian Wushuang is not Bian Wenzhong, Bian Wushuang's parents go, these 100,000 border troops are turned into Bian's private army, it's only a matter of time, don't forget, Li Zhi let him bring 20,000 Thunder Army in order to help Bian Wushuang hold these 100,000 border troops." ”

"Li Zhi'er!" Deng Pu slammed his fist on the table, this was the first time he had spoken ill of Li Zhi.

"People are going to die, what else to say!" Deng Hong sighed, "I don't even have a partner to seek revenge on him." However, these 100,000 border troops, our Deng clan will not give them happily. Didn't Bian Wushuang take away 20,000 Thunder Army? Then we will draw a part of the elite from the 100,000 border troops in Chudi to make up for this shortfall. Whoever you want or don't want, you pick it, go to the roster of the military department to pick, as long as you choose, you have to come back to me. Our Deng clan took out 100,000 border troops, and the Thunder Army had to give us half. If you don't agree to the deal, then you might as well let the situation go a little bit worse. ”

Deng Pu nodded slowly, "Father is right." ”

"Uncle Dai!" Deng Hong turned his head to look at a middle-aged man with a gloomy face on the other side, his status was not low, he sat on the second chair on Deng Hong's right hand, but the first chair was empty, it should have been Deng Fang's, but Deng Fang was already lying in the coffin. Dai Shulun sat in a very interesting position, his chair leaned back a lot, hiding himself in a shadow, hearing Deng Hong's name, he stood up silently and lowered his head slightly.

"You have always been the uncle's deputy, and you are also the uncle's most trusted person, now that the uncle is gone, the sand ants will be taken away by the royal family, you will definitely not be retained, you have to get out immediately, otherwise I am afraid that my life will not be guaranteed, how many people can you pull out of it?"

"Uncle left suddenly, we were completely unprepared, and now we can only pull away the most trustworthy person, and other uncertain candidates, even if they can be in the position, they can't be pulled." The voice was muffled, as if it had deliberately changed its voice.

"Li Zhi is about to die, your time is limited, as soon as Li Zhi dies and the funeral is over, the crown prince will do it, so hurry up." Deng Hong instructed: "The Deng clan can no longer trust the sand ants in the future, we have to build another intelligence system." ”

"Yes!"
