Chapter 1311: The City of Twilight

In the spring of March, the ice and snow melt, everything recovers, the grass grows and the eagle flies, and there is a green and vibrant scenery everywhere.

But in Twilight City, it's a different story.

The land here is barren, the mountains and forests are undulating, and there are poisonous snakes and beasts everywhere, and there are few crops growing at all.

This barren and remote city, 3,000 miles south of Seoul, is divided into three counties and 12 counties, with a population of about 40,000 or 50,000. Moreover, with the exception of most of the exiles who were formed by sin, they were all made up of uncivilized clans and tribes. According to preliminary statistics, there are about three or four hundred tribes, large and small, all of which are in the semi-agricultural era. This is a poor and backward remote mountain town, and it is a real barren land.

And here, it is the fiefdom of King Yue.

There are no official documents, no subordinate officials, and no seals, when King Yue followed Zheng Zheng into the city of twilight with a single gun, he said with a wry smile: "Real person, the city of twilight is called the city of exile, and the little king was named the prince of this place, and he was exiled in a different direction." ”

Zheng Zheng said quietly: "The sword is sharpened, and the plum blossom fragrance is from the bitter cold, in the eyes of the poor road, this place is no different from other cities, but because of the lack of elbow system, there is no family, it is easier to let go of his hands and feet, let King Yue show his strengths, and create an immortal industry." ”

After hearing this, King Yue praised: "The words of a real person make Xiao Wang's ears refreshed, and his mouth is suddenly opened." ”

Zheng Zheng smiled lightly: "I gave this fief back then, but what did your father want?"

Speaking of King Qi, Qi Zhen's expression obviously became a little depressed, and he smiled bitterly: "It's not my father's decision, but Xiao Wang personally asked for it." ”

Zheng Zheng was a little surprised: "You asked for it yourself?"

Qi Zhen seemed to recall some things, and his eyes became a little confused: "When Xiao Wang was young, he was often able to serve his father, so he also knew some things. Although his father did not have the ambition to expand the territory, he was still very angry about the invasion of foreign enemies. ”

"In the twenty-seventh year of Gaoyang, the five-nation coalition led by Nanfuguo, taking advantage of the drought in China for many years, thousands of miles of red land, no harvest of crops, and many princes mutinied, formed an army of 100,000, crossed the barbarian mountains, and stormed Zhennanguan, due to the rebellion of the guards, Qu Ao and Hanchi were lost one after another, and lost 300 miles of land in ten days, and finally the troops came to Silla City, the whole country was shocked, and the government and the opposition were angry. ”

"For this matter, my father and emperor successively convened important ministers to discuss the military, and since that half a decade, he has been worried about the battle on the front line, and he has hardly slept well. Since then, Xiao Wang has secretly made up his mind that he must take care of the frontier defense line for his father and guard the gate of the country. In this world, only I, a big country in Central China, can reign over the world and be proud of Yuhuan, how can I allow those small countries outside the country to be arrogant and domineering, jumping up and down?"

Zheng Zheng couldn't help but bow his head and said, "Yes, that's a good thing." ”

King Yue respectfully bowed to Zheng Zheng and said, "I hope Mr. will help Xiao Wang." ”

Zheng Zheng didn't dare to accept the big gift, hurriedly supported it, and then said solemnly: "Don't worry about this matter, Poor Dao will naturally not stand by." ”

"Then we ......," Yue Wang asked in a low voice.

Zheng Zheng smiled indifferently and said: "Since King Yue is here, let's start step by step, and do what you should do." With Zheng Rong and the Hundred Demon Lin Wei, I believe that no one in Twilight City can move you. As for the poor road, you have to take a walk around, the terrain here is steep, the mountains are stacked, and the leylines are barren, there must be a reason, maybe there is a big demon hiding and stirring up trouble. ”

King Yue once again bowed his hand and said, "Then there is Lao Zhenren." ”

In fact, at this point, King Yue already understood very well in his heart that Zheng Zheng meant to hand over those powerful demons and monsters to him to deal with, and in terms of governing the country and marching and fighting, it was up to him and Zheng Rong to deal with it.

Twilight City has a wall, it's not high, it's less than two meters, it's made of simple stones, and it's done with a paste, and the defense index is equivalent to zero. There are only two streets in the city that are not spacious and loess flying, and the surrounding areas are scattered with large and small earthen houses.

Walking on the streets, there are all big men with open chests and arms, with weapons at their waists, and the folk customs look quite strong. When they saw King Yue and his party, their faces were full of ill-intentioned expressions, but they moved their eyes to the back again, and suddenly showed a look of fear, it turned out that there was another team of big men following them, all of them were five big and three thick, with hideous appearances and fierce anger, and they looked like murderous guys.

At this time, everyone was curious, and couldn't help whispering.

The City Lord's Mansion in Twilight City is a little larger than that of ordinary officials in Seoul, and it is very cold. Zheng Zheng really couldn't stand it, so he simply found an upright reason to leave, and let King Yue start to gather the officials in the city and start discussing major matters.

After leaving, he took Moyu and deliberately flew around the Twilight City, and couldn't help but sigh: "I really don't know how to say that King Yue is good, what way is not good to show loyalty, I have to pick such a backward, barren and bitter place." ”

Mo Yuxian was a little worried: "This place is indeed not good, I am afraid it will have a great impact on the great cause of King Yue in the future." ”

Zheng Zheng smiled: "That's not necessarily, in fact, as long as you solve a problem, things will be much easier." ”

Mo Yu couldn't help but ask, "What's the problem?"

Zheng Zheng raised his fingers and wrote lightly: "Population problem." ”

Mo Yu nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, Brother Zheng is right, population is the foundation of everything. The land here is vast and sparsely populated, and as long as there are enough people, they can open up wasteland for farming and produce materials. But what is the best way to recruit so many people in a short period of time?"

Zheng Zheng laughed and said: "This is not something we have to think about, it should be the work that King Yue has to do, let alone the first big test after he takes office." ”

Mo Yu chuckled and said, "Also, not in his position, not in his position." ”

Zheng Zheng observed the geographical trend of the entire Twilight City again, and had a preliminary idea in his heart, but he still needed to go back and improve it. After pondering for a while, he said aloud, "Let's go." ”

"Hmm. Mo Yu also obediently didn't ask much.

The two of them rose into the air, Zheng Zheng summoned the Dapeng, sat on it and roamed the sky, and began to inspect the mountains, rivers and seas here, to see if there were no big demons hidden here, if there were, they had to find them out, and exterminate them, so that they could not affect the future development of Twilight City.

In the air, Mo Yu sat in the back seat, naturally hugged Zheng Zheng's waist, leaned his face on his back, and asked with a satisfied face: "Brother Zheng, why didn't you see Sister Xiang this time, where did she go?"

Zheng Zheng smiled bitterly: "Because of the Shiwa incident, your sister Xiang is still sulking, so she hid and didn't come to see us this time." ”
