In this era, Toei also achieved the nominal unification of Honshu Island in later generations.

In fact, the area that the entire country can fully control is less than half of the territory of the entire island, which is about the same size as the average county in the Central Plains.

The ministers are strong and the lords are weak, the country has long been in a state of disintegration, and the murder of the former queen Hu Ji only exposes the contradictions hidden in the dark under the public's nose.

There are a total of four major families in power in Yamatai, known as the four powerful ministers in history, namely the Gui family, the Liu family, the Ma family, and the Song family.

It is said that when the founding of the country was first established, the Song family was still dominant, and it could even decide on the abolition of the queen.

The situation is a bit like the three Zhi families before the Jin Dynasty, but that Zhi family has long been destroyed by Zhao, Han, and Wei and disappeared in the long river of history.

The Song family is currently suppressed by the other three, and its momentum is not as good as before, and it is the tail of the four.

But the other three families did not take any further action, because they each grew stronger in the struggle to weaken the Song family, but they were afraid that any one of them would annex the power of the Song family alone and become dominant.

The current Gui family seems to have fallen into the same situation as the Song family again, and even surpasses it.

Fortunately, Gui Tong, the head of the Gui family, is not a fool, so he suddenly made a move and sent someone to assassinate the previous queen Hu Ji.

Since the founding of Yamatai, the queen is nominally the queen in charge of the whole country, and the Liu family, the Ma family and the Song family can't care about arguing with the Song family, and the little queen is the thorn in their side.

It's a pity, don't look at the current queen's age, but she is very measured in her work, so she simply fled with some people who were loyal to her and went to a mountain range.

Things were unexpected by the four families in an instant, although each of them had the ability to destroy the still relatively weak queen power, but no one could make a bird.

Legend has it that the nobles of Yamatai all came from the distant and mysterious Central Plains.

What the four families are most worried about at present is whether the little queen will escape to the sea and return to the Central Plains to bring rescue troops.

The strength of the Central Plains was unimaginable to them, and a few years ago, a fleet of ships from the Central Plains passed by.

My God, with a random fleet, the number of non-commissioned officers is comparable to that of the entire country, and even the combat effectiveness is not on the same level at all, and it will be dangerous if you move here.

"The head of the family, there are people from other places who have come to contact, but it has been two days since Zhuzhen passed, and no one has come back to report."

The four families received this message in unison. Just in case, the port has to contact the main family every day, so as not to be run away by the little queen in carelessness, and it will become a bamboo basket to draw water.

Before a few families could react, more exciting news came immediately: all the silver mines of the Song family were occupied!

Zhang He and they are very safe, they have the attire of the locals, and they also know that the current power of the Song family is the weakest, who else can they do if they don't take this family?

For a while, there was a disturbance in the entire royal city, and rumors spread everywhere, among the small families, the most popular was that the little queen had made a move, ready to uproot the four families.

It is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, which is the same in the Central Plains and overseas. Those small and medium-sized families can rise, stronger than anything else.

The Song family originally wanted to send someone to the silver mine, but they didn't dare at all. Who knows if their soldiers will attack the door with their front foot?

Whether it is the other three families or other small and medium-sized families, they have long been displeased with their own families, and there are many people who fell into the well in the early years.

Not only the Song family, but other families are shrinking their forces at this time, although everyone knows that the little queen was driven into the small mountain range, how can you explain what happened to the Song family's silver mine?

Gui Sheng was a smart man, and he immediately hugged the lap of the expeditionary force.

The roars sent by the Ma family and the Song family are not fools, and they compete to flatter.

With these local snakes here, all kinds of information are many times more detailed than those in the royal city.

"Haha, Brother Hewen, it's really yours!" Zhang He laughed heartily: "The people of these merchants are not clear, everything comes from your plan, why don't I tell them?" ”

He knew that the other party didn't want to come out, although he didn't know the reason, it was okay to joke at this time.

"General, everyone knows that you are the one in charge." The Xu family quietly changed the topic: "At present, we have taken the first step to success, and the next step is to contact the queen." ”

"No," Niu Tong never understood why this Liangzhou man let Zhang He treat him so politely, and he didn't show weakness at this moment: "I'll take advantage of the victory to pursue." ”

I have to say that he still has some skills, and he has a sketch in his hand.

"Everyone, please see, this is the main silver mine of the Gui family, here is the Liu family, and here is the Ma family."

His hand drew a half-circle on the sketch: "Let's go to the little queen's residence, anyway, we have to pass through this area, why don't we pretend to destroy you?" Kill two birds with one stone. ”

"As for the little queen, she lives in her own silver mine, and it is not impossible to destroy her when the time comes."

Niu Tong didn't understand military affairs, but when he saw the soldiers coming down, the people of the Song family didn't have the slightest power to resist.

If you didn't want to send a few people to spread fake news, it can be said that none of them could escape.

Anyway, those words were all said by Qin Liujiao, and the captured natives were very obedient, some shouted to call the queen over, and some said that they should go through the Central Plains first.

As a result, the people in Wang Cheng received a lot of inexplicable news, and no one dared to approach them at all, so they came to catch one by one.

Not to mention, the natives are good materials for traitors, all of them seem to be second-class Han people, and they also grasp the Han soldiers one by one to ask for Chinese teachings, and they are proud to speak one or two words.

The Xu family solicited Zhuang Xu's opinion and sent many natives who had completely surrendered to the royal city to spread the news.

Niu Tong's words were carefully considered, and he had long wanted to find a suitable opportunity to replace the position of the Xu family.

The most advantageous thing is that he is a native of Changshan, and his neighbors are more reliable than outsiders.

However, what he didn't know was that Zhao Yun had already taught him face-to-face, and Zhang He was paying attention all the way, watching him jump up and down.

The Xu family looked at their nose and nose as if they hadn't heard this. Zhuang Xuan is an invisible person-like existence, and he is also an old god, and he doesn't say a word.

As for Wu Qiong, it is true that everyone is a fellow villager, but he has to be loyal to the Zhao family who promoted him and the leader Zhang He, and he doesn't even look at him.

"Then we'll send someone to contact the little queen right away," Zhang He didn't bother to explain to him: "Mr. Zhuang, did you send someone over there?" ”

Tigers are also afraid of wolves, and the name of each soldier is extremely precious.

"Actually, people have already sent it." Zhuang smiled elegantly, not at all like a member of the secret service.

"Haha, no wonder Zilong is very relieved of you!" Zhang He was stunned for a moment, and immediately burst into laughter.

"The little queen Beihumi also gave a letter for help," Zhuang Xu took out a scroll of wooden tablets from his cuffs: "The fire paint is still there, and it was originally intended to be shown to the general." ”

"Humble Mi? What a strange name. Zhang He picked up the wooden tablet, tore off the fire paint, and looked at it carefully. (To be continued.) )
