"When... When... When..."
The bells rang continuously, echoing among the thousands of pavilions in Zetian Temple. Stone walls carved with dragon patterns are lined up on both sides of the square. In the center is a avenue decorated with precious stones and red carpet, one in three steps. The imperial forest army and a 20-step imperial guard guarded the side. In the center, a line of Levinchen generals holding the jade wat, slowly walked on the avenue in front of the Zetian Temple.
When the officials entered the hall, a group of imperial guards slowly closed the golden gate.
"Marina!"
The moment the door closed, everyone was stunned. They looked up and saw a beautiful young girl sitting on the throne, with a graceful figure, and it was Tang Xiaoxi, the princess of the auxiliary country.
Qin Yan and Feng Jixing were standing on the left and right in the cloak of the king. Although they were the three kings, they all seemed to have acquiesced in Tang Xiaoxi's true control.
Feng Jixing stepped forward on the gilded king's rank, and said loudly: "My lords, I think everyone has also heard the news from the East. The Celestial Continent is already raising warships. At this moment, nearly 10,000 warships. Docked on the other side of the ocean, my Great Qin Empire is the enemy of the army. When I am ordered by Her Royal Highness, we must fight for the empire to the end!"
A group of generals clenched their fists one after another, and shouted, "Blood to the end!"
Zeng Yifan smiled, and said: "This time the letter to the king ordered all officials of Rank 4 and above in Lanyan City to come to Zetian Hall. I think it must be more than that simple."
; "Haha, everything is like a god, it's really not the case. It's up to Princess Xi to announce this matter."
"Ok."
Tang Xiaoxi stood up gently, with a clear and beautiful face that was fascinating, with no trace of impurities in his star pupils, as if he could see through everything in the world, his red lips lightly said, "Although Lanyan City is an imperial capital, it is far from the east. The coastline is a full 3,000 miles away, and it is very troublesome to transport materials and deliver military orders, so... My Royal Highnesses, King Xin and King Zhong, decided to set another capital in the eastern provinces."
"Set the capital?" Yifan Zeng was taken aback.
"Ok."
Suddenly, an old official walked out of the queue and knelt down on his knees and said: "Please think twice about your highness and Princess Xi! Lanyan City has been an imperial capital since ancient times, and the place where Ziweixing is located will inevitably affect the foundation of the country once the capital is moved."
"Master Murong is worrying a lot." Tang Xiaoxi smiled slightly: "It is not to move the capital, but to set a capital again. Lanyan City is the imperial capital, the new capital is the eastern capital, and the eastern capital is certain. Dongdu, there is no need to discuss this matter. I have to ask you which city is more suitable for this Dongdu?"
Xiang Yu pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, frowning, and groaning deeply.
"Gong Yu has something to say?" Qin Yan asked.
Xiang Yu nodded: "Finally, I will suggest that Linghan City be the eastern capital. Linghan City is rich in materials and close to the East China Sea. Its population, arable land and commercial prosperity are second to none among the three eastern provinces."
Several generals knelt to the ground at the same time: "I'll be second."
They were all members of Xiang Yu, and they were also the former members of the Qihai Tangmen's army.
"Ling Hancheng?"
Feng Jixing squinted his eyes, smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"Although Linghan City is prosperous, after all, it is separated from Lingbei by the natural danger of Qinling. Once Linghan City is attacked, it will be very difficult to rescue Lanyan City and Wugu City. It will take a lot of time for a large number of materials and troops to pass through Qinling. , I think a city in Lingbei should be chosen as the eastern capital."
Feng Jixing was justified and well-founded, and Xiang Yu couldn't say anything more. He clasped his fist and said: "His Royal Highness believes that what the King said is very true."
Qunchen you look at me, I look at me, no one talks anymore.
After nearly half a minute, the old minister Zeng Yifan finally opened his mouth and said: "I think, it is better to choose Dongshuang City. This city was once the garrison of the Gentian Corps. It was later remodeled by His Royal Highness Qin. The area of the city is It has been expanded by a full three times, and the Tiehelm Mountain’s mineral deposits are also mined and smelted in large quantities, which can provide the Imperial Army with weapons and armor on the spot, plus the gathering of businessmen, it is the best choice."
Tang Xiaoxi nodded happily: "I agree with what the Lord Fan said."
Qin Yan also smiled and nodded: "I also think Dongshuang City is the most suitable."
Feng Jixing raised his head and said: "We will set Dongshuang City as the eastern capital, and the three armies and six departments will be moved to Dongshuang City on the next day. Are there any dissenters?"
Everyone bowed to the ground.
On March 2, 7742 of the Imperial Calendar, the Daqin Empire set the eastern capital in Dongshuang City, and the six divisions and departments of the three armies began to relocate on the same day. At the same time, military orders were transmitted to the Seven Seas Province, Yunzhong Province, Earth Star Province, Xunbai Province, etc. The garrisons of the major provinces were deployed to prepare for battle in Lingdong Province.
…
In Zetian Hall, while the green trees in the imperial garden were sprouting, snow flakes fell in the sky.
"March."
Tang Xiaoxi looked up at the falling snow in the sky, exhaled, and said, "When will Mu Mu come back..."
"He will come back naturally when he wants to. We don't need to worry." Feng Jixing came from the corridor with his hand on the handle of the knife, and smiled: "Princess Xi doesn't have to worry too much, Ayu is more concerned about the empire than any of us. In the future, he will definitely come back before the official war begins."
Tang Xiaoxi leaped forward and sat leisurely on the mahogany guardrail in the attic. The snow drifted around her, making her look like a fiery flower in a sea of snow: "The wind is commanded, is there any news from afar, Tianji Empire, Blackstone? Has the empire come?"
She is still accustomed to calling Feng Ji's behavior "Wind Commander", as if she still lived in the past years, when Qin Jin was still there, Qin Yin was still there, Lin Muyu was the commander of the Longdan Camp, and Feng Jixing was the commander of the Forbidden Army. Performing his duties, drinking alcohol and playing the piano in idle time, everything is as beautiful as a dream. Tang Xiaoxi's eyes reddened, and he couldn't help raising his face, for fear of tears falling.
"not yet."
Feng Jixing said: "Our war eagles and letter birds are flying continuously over the sea, and the news they bring back is almost the same. Most of the forces of the Tianji Empire and the Blackrock Empire are gathered on the coast, waiting for the ships and materials to be ready. Let’s set off, but it seems that there will be at least half a year before they are truly ready."
"Is there any news from the north?" Tang Xiaoxi asked.
"Yes, about 200,000 people of the Demon Race entered the wilderness of the snowy plains, and Wei Qiu led the Longdan Camp to guard the Eight Wastelands. The Demon Race has really been completely expelled from the mainland."
"So..." Tang Xiaoxi pursed her red lips, and asked suddenly: "So what about the area north of the Eight Waste Plains, where do we have news?"
"no."
Feng Jixing shook his head and said: "The eight wasteland is the frozen polar region to the north. It snows all year round and it is extremely cold. Using the temperature rules set by the Huoquesi, it is minus 40 degrees. Ice, and there is no food in the polar regions, and the snow that is several meters high makes it impossible to travel, so we did not send scouts to enter."
Tang Xiaoxi looked at Feng Jixing with bright eyes, and said, "I have an ominous premonition."
"Why?"
"I don't know." She nodded: "It's just a hunch, how much is the total strength of the Tianji Empire?"
"According to the news from Ayu, there are 800,000 total troops."
"So, how many people gathered along the coast?"
"Nearly 300,000." Feng Jixing frowned: "Adding the defense forces of the four major provinces of the Tianji Empire, it is about 40w. In our sight, it is 700,000 troops. What Princess Xi is still questioning ?"
Tang Xiaoxi said: "But don't forget the commander of the wind, Mu Mu also said that they are aggressively conscripting troops. They started aggressively conscripting a few months ago. With the prosperity of the Tianji Empire, recruiting hundreds of thousands of troops in a short period of time shouldn't be a problem. Besides, we only spied on their troops. As far as I know... Our spies saw the main force of the Yanji Army and the Lanji Army among the four armies of the Tianji Empire, but the other two, the Longji Corps and Liu The main force of the Jibing regiment is missing. The most urgent thing is to find out where the two regiments are."
Feng Jixing was said to be sweaty, and said: "Princess Xi means... Maybe they have other preparations?"
"Ok."
"Where will they attack from?"
"I don't know..." Tang Xiaoxi frowned, "This is also where I am confused."
"Could it be... the frozen polar region in the north?"
"No, ordinary people can't survive in the frozen polar region..."
"Yes… "
Feng Jixing clenched a fist and said, "Don't think too much, please Princess Xi to deploy the march plan for the relocation of the imperial army in the afternoon. I will go to the dock in Daojiang in the afternoon to see how the boat is prepared."
"Well, go ahead."
The silence in the imperial garden and the falling snow made it even more lonely.
Tang Xiaoxi spread her hands and caught the snowflakes, but the snowflakes melted in an instant, and she suddenly wanted to cry.
"I can't hold it... I can't hold it..."
…
The place of exile, Feixia Valley, is said to be a valley, but in fact it is a plain between the valleys, dozens of miles away, very vast. At this time, the sky over Feixia Valley is covered with dark clouds, it seems that the mountains and rain are coming, but no one avoids it. This coming heavy rain, because if you go to avoid it, you may miss an opportunity to meet the king.
Ugly humans with skins on their heads stood on the hillside, dancing their arms, and exuding the stench that they hadn't taken a bath for several years, screaming like madness: "Darkmoon Lord! Darkmoon Lord! "
The valley is crowded with people, maybe it's not a crowd, because there are not only humans, but also some orcs, and alien species that have been mutated by genetic radiation.
"Wow..."
The tidy steps sounded, and the crowd stepped aside. It was an army, a powerful army equipped with crossbow arrows, Yuanli guns, and flamethrowers. There were nearly five thousand people, and the sound of the engine rumbled. The chariots were slowly advancing under the escort of the army, and at the very center was a huge chariot nearly ten meters high. The wheels with a radius of three meters seemed to be crushing everything slowly pressing down on the canyon. Rocks and bones.
"Darkmoon King! Darkmoon King!"
Everyone is even more crazy.
Above the chariot, a beautiful figure stood there, a short skirt transformed from a special material fabric wrapped her attractive figure, a short and torn cloak, a shawl with long hair, and a beautiful face. It looks so beautiful in the sunset light.
