Liu Zhang and Deng Shaojian fight!

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang won.

In the first month of the third year of Tianhe, Liu Zhang ascended the throne and became emperor, and he still used the national name "Wei", which people call it the Northern Wei.

The year name is "Yongding", which is Emperor Yongding.

In this year, the Northern Wei Dynasty began to use the Yongding year, which was the first year of Yongding.

Liu Baoshun became the eldest prince, led his troops to fight, killed all directions, and captured all the small forces and warlords around the Northern Wei Dynasty in one go.

only……

Young Master Deng still disappeared.

These two people seem to have never existed, as if they are just legends.

During this period, something else happened.

Empress Dowager Tao of Southern Wei actually secretly sent a letter to Liu Zhang.

As long as she can kill Hou Xiao Chengli of Hengyi, she is willing to exchange her rich conditions for Xiao Chengli's head.

This promise will always be valid as long as she does not die for a day.

Empress Dowager Tao, who thought she would not get a response, unexpectedly received a reply from Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang promised that, as a minister of the Great Wei Dynasty and now the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, he was willing to share the worries of Empress Dowager Tao. He vowed to chase Xiao Chengli and his master and servant to death. Even if he overturned the northern land, he would find the master and servant.

This promise is Liu Zhang's promise to Empress Dowager Tao and also his promise to himself.

The master and servant of Hengyi, Xiao Chengli, and Deng Shaojian, would not be able to sleep for a day if he did not die.

These two people are alive, as if they are stuck in their throats.

Liu Baoshun volunteered, "Don't worry, my father, my son will share my worries with my father, and I will kill Xiao Chengli and Deng Shaojian. I will not give up if I don't take down the heads of their master and servant in one day!"

"Very good!" Emperor Yongding Liu Zhang was very pleased.

Liu Baoping said from the side: "My son believes that the master and servant Xiao Chengli and Deng Shaojian, the Hou of Hengyi, are already at a loss and pose no threat to the father. The biggest hidden danger at the moment is not the master and servant, but Yan Yunge, Pingyang County."

"Don't exaggerate!" Liu Bao naturally stood up and scolded him.

Liu Baoping was unmoved and continued, "Yan Yunge promised that Emperor Xiao Chengwen of the Southern Wei Dynasty would not go south, so she would definitely go north. After she had finished rectifying Bo County and Dongyang County, it would be the time for her to go north. My son asked to go south to build the Nanjiang Camp to prepare for the southern expedition, and to prevent Yan Yunge from going north."

This is to compete with him for military power!

Liu Baoshun naturally would not agree.

He strongly opposed, "Hou Hengyi, Xiao Chengli, and Deng Shaojian, the master and servant, are the great troubles of the father.

Back then, the master and servant had no soldiers or generals, and relying on the plot, he forced the rebel Sima Dou to support the rebel Sima Dou from a penniless little thief to the king of a country.

I have to be careful of such methods! Who can guarantee that this pair of masters and servants will not use the same tricks again and support the second Sima Dou ascends the throne and becomes emperor? By that time, everything will be too late.

As for Yan Yunge, it would not take her to rectify the territory of the two counties overnight, and it would take at least two or three years.

The son minister believed that the master captured the two masters of Hengyi, the master and servant, and then advanced eastward.

Yan Yunge opened the sea route. In order to prevent her from advancing from the sea, it is inevitable to advance eastward. At the same time, we also need to prepare our own navy. My sons ask for an order to share the worries of the father!”

"Okay, okay..." Emperor Yongding Liu Zhang said three good things in a row, obviously very satisfied with Liu Baoshun.

"Our Northern Wei court, apart from the troops and horses of Liangzhou, must have their own naval commanders. The boss has been in military affairs for many years, not only knows how to fight but also uses his brains. It's not bad! I will leave the matter of preparing for the navy to Baoshun!"

Liu Baoshun was overjoyed and accepted the order loudly, "My son will definitely not have the high expectations of his father."

He bowed and secretly looked at Liu Baoping, with a look of pride between his eyebrows and eyes.

He was very happy to suppress his legitimate brother Liu Baoping.

Both brothers are born!

However……

There is only one throne.

The eldest prince has the best chance to inherit the throne. However, it does not mean that the eldest prince will definitely inherit the throne.

In all dynasties, many eldest princes died before the throne changed.

In the end, the throne fell into the hands of neither the legitimate nor the eldest.

These lessons are wary.

And the first person he, Liu Baoshun, had to be guarded against was his brother Liu Baoping, who was also a legitimate brother.

As for other concubines, he will solve them one by one.

When he is the only one heir to the throne, who can compete with him?

Nothing can ensure that the throne falls into his hands than killing all the opponents.

All opponents are dead, who else will be left to the throne?

On the other hand, Liu Baoping looked calm even though he was a little regretful.

He asked again to build the Nanjiang Camp to prepare for the future Nanxing expedition.

However……

Emperor Yongding Liu Zhang shook his head slowly, "The court has limited financial resources and cannot support you in the construction of the Nanjiang Camp for the time being. Moreover, Yan Yunge will not go north in a short time. Future wars may involve water wars, and the construction of a navy is the most important thing."

Liu Baoping was very regretful.

Liu Baoshun was even more proud.

...

Between Youzhou and the Northern Wei Dynasty, there is a mountain range that stretches for hundreds of miles.

There is one of them, which the locals call Tongjiangshan.

In the valley, fields are in the same order and fields are crisscrossing.

This is a rich place with mountains and waters, self-sufficient.

The only road leading to the outside world is particularly neatly repaired and two carriages can be used in parallel.

Some people are working in the fields and preparing for spring plowing.

More young and strong people practice in the square and practice combat and killing skills.

Children grazing cattle and sheep, mowing grass and feeding chickens, ducks and pigs...

This place is like a paradise, not affected by the outside world.

The soldiers guarding the mountain gate roared a long time, "Sir, you are back, you are back!"

In the valley, everyone was in full bloom.

The mountain gate is open, and Deng Shaojian, who is known as Mr. Deng, returns with the defeated general.

Liu Zhang is vicious!

He sent out a large army to pull out one stronghold after another they set up outside, and suffered heavy losses.

Fortunately, he is very smart.

He has never disclosed the real base camp, and he is always on guard against being followed and stalked.

This time, foreign affairs were not going well, so he had to choose to go back to the base camp to recuperate and take a rest in order to achieve the future.

Their group appeared in the valley and had the brains to turn quickly, so they naturally saw that Mr. Deng was not going out this time.

Immediately afterwards, the cheers gradually became smaller.

Shaojian Deng ordered his confidant to calm the people and cheer everyone up.

The trusted person took the order and left.

Young Master Deng himself hurried to meet the Hou Xiao Chengli of Hengyi.

At this moment, Xiao Chengli was personally teaching his eldest son's studies.

When I heard the movement outside, I knew that it was Shaojian Deng who was back.

He urged the eldest son to complete his studies with care, and then the master and servant went to the secret room to discuss

Only after the outsiders were present did Deng Shaojian show his weak side.

Hou Xiao Chengli of Hengyi was shocked, "Sir, are you injured?"

Shaojian Deng nodded, tore open his clothes, revealing the wound on his back.

The wound showed signs of inflammation and puscism. He insisted on it without saying a word, pretending to be fine, retreating from the Northern Wei Imperial City to the valley base camp. This tolerance is extraordinary.

Hou Xiao Chengli of Hengyi immediately called the doctor to treat the wounds of the young supervisor Deng.

"Why would you be injured if you have someone to protect your husband? Did Liu Zhang thief hurt Mr.?"

Deng Shaojian shook his head, "It's not Liu Zhang, but Liu Baoshun, the eldest son of Liu Zhang. Fortunately, it was that boy who was not familiar with our family and did not recognize our family's disguise, so our family escaped and ran away. If it were that boy Liu Baoping, our family would have to be told outside."

"Sir, don't talk nonsense! Mr., I will definitely live a hundred years old. This failure is not the responsibility of Mr., it's just that we are slow to hear the news and failed to receive the news of Xiao Chengye's death as soon as possible, which allowed Liu Zhang to seize the opportunity."
