"Dingdong, hard work will bring you rewards. After unremitting efforts, Wushu Xiaoma Ge finally upgraded Jiangyi City to the third first-level capital. Congratulations to the player Wushu Xiaoma Ge."

A third capital-level territory appeared.

Before Aniu's county town was rented out, Aniu's allies did not have time to accept the famous city given by Feng Xiang. Wushang Xiaoma Ge had already taken the lead. This news made Emperor Wu of Han and Zong Wuyan, who were walking home, somewhat regretful.

This is a helpless thing.

The prerequisite for the lord player to attack the famous city. The territory must reach the peak of the fourth-level city, that is, all prerequisites for upgrading such as buildings and population should be met. Although A Niu is ready to hand over the city, the stone walls of Huoyun City and Maple Leaf City have not been built, and the population of the main city has not reached full capacity. Before these prerequisites are met, there is no way to start occupying the famous city.

Before this, everyone's evaluation of Jiang Yicheng was not low, and their comprehensive strength among lord players was ranked among the top ten. After all, people's impression of Jiang Yicheng was limited to the production of poisons and the aliens in the battle to attack Dong Zhuo. There was no human weapon, the armed army of Dahuang Crossbow, and there was no news that there were historical figures under his command. No one expected that Jiang Yicheng ranked third in the competition to advance to the capital.

This promotion made people realize for the first time that Wushang Xiaoma Ge's strength may be underestimated.

Without saying anything else, if Jiangyi City conquers famous cities, its military strength needs to be re-evaluated.

But then another news came out, which made everyone laugh and cry: Liaodong adventure players revealed that the famous city currently occupied by Jiang Yicheng was not killed by its own strength, but was rented from the Liaodong prefect Feilong Baby.

Aniu’s plan to rent a famous city was first announced, but he mainly rented a famous city. There are many factors that need to be considered. The distance between the leased land and the territory must be considered.

The territory that Aniu is fully controlled is in Qingzhou. It is naturally best to rent it to the Qingzhou Lord. The problem is that the best development of the Qingzhou Lord players is undoubtedly Aniu. The second place is Emperor Wu of Han. Even Emperor Wu of Han's Huoyun City has not reached the peak of the fourth-level city. Other lords in Qingzhou do not have to expect at this time. Of course, Fengxiang's famous city rental is not limited to Qingzhou, but is facing the whole country, but there is obviously a process for the foreign lords to make the decision to occupy Qingzhou. To receive the famous city, you also have to send troops from the territory.

Jiangyi City is in Liaodong, and Feilong Baby is the first to complete a deal!

Brother Wushang Xiaoma has rented Mingcheng to upgrade his territory to a first-level capital. It seems to be a bit tricky. Many players believe that Jiangyi City, Fengxiang City and Wuhu City are not at the same level at all.

But A Niu doesn't think so.

No matter how Wushang Xiaoma Ge's famous city is, Jiang Yicheng has upgraded its territory to the top of a level 4 city before it is promoted. It is an indisputable fact. Looking at the whole country, how many territories are there that have achieved this? Without looking at others, Fengxiang City's close allies and powerful territories, Huoyun City has not yet built the city wall. In any case, Jiang Yicheng's strength cannot be underestimated.

Shortly after Jiangyi City advanced, another capital-level territory appeared.

"Dingdong. One hard work brings rewards. Yun Danfengqing, the lord of the Inhuman City of Yulin County, Jiaozhou, finally upgraded the Inhuman City to the fourth first-level capital through unremitting efforts. Congratulations to the Yun Danfengqing player."

If Jiangyi City becomes a capital city, there is no suspicion of being a skillful person, then the success of the non-human city is not at all.

The barbarian general "Shapi Dog" under Yun Danfeng Qing's tent personally led 15,000 barbarian soldiers to fight. After 6 hours of fierce battle, he paid a 40% loss and finally successfully captured Guilin County. A city lord noticed that the non-hu City's troops were slightly lower than that of Wuhu City, and he won the victory in a shorter time and price!

"In the battle against Dong Zhuo, Wuhu City and Wuhu City were in Dong Zhuo's camp. The Barbarian General and Taishi Ci had no chance to fight. Taishi Ci's force should be stronger. Attack the famous city. The non-human army led by the Barbarian General was stronger than the Fivehumen Army. What does this mean... Well, it seems that the non-human city, which has always been low-key, is actually more powerful than imagined, and has been making a fortune in silence... interesting."

Huoyun City finally built a city wall. After taking over Xi'an County, it was successfully promoted to the capital for the fifth time.

As more and more player forces complete the preliminary preparations, players' attacks on famous cities will soon take action. From the scarcity of famous cities and their irreplaceable territory promotion symbols, once players have the ability to launch a war, whether successful or failure, it will inevitably trigger a series of fierce competition and conflict, and may even directly lead to a reshuffle of regional forces.

An era of famous cities is coming.

After Yilong became effective, Juxianlou made some changes.

Hua Xin accidentally sighed and became a direct inducement: "Juxian Building is good, but unfortunately it has not been developed much, and its role has been greatly reduced..."

The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional.

A certain city lord believed that Hua Xin would not say such things without any brainstorm.

Historical figures came to the front and took the initiative to become an official. This was the first time since A Niu took charge of Fengxiang. The three senior officials did not go to the city lord's office, nor to the city lord's mansion, or the tavern, but they just expressed their purpose in Juxian Building. A Niu believed that it could actually explain some problems.

Juxianlou is attractive to NPC talents in the wild and has many ways to improve the effect.

A certain city lord was a little aesthetically tired of the so-called "attractive" statement of the system. He always had a negative attitude towards "I am lucky if I get it, but I am lucky if I lose it." Therefore, after the Juxian Building was built, it would be fine if it could be operated and never took the time to strengthen it. However, Hua Xin's subtle meaning was not difficult to guess that this special building did not play its full role, at least there was something that made Hua Xin dissatisfied.

A slight dissatisfaction may lead to the talent being abandoned, which makes A Niu sweat in a cold sweat.

Can't bear it!

It was fine if I didn’t know it before, but now I know there is something wrong, and it would be unreasonable not to correct it. Following good deeds and correcting mistakes in time is the quality that a good lord should have.

The former intermediate chef was transferred to other positions, and a senior chef entered Juxian Building.

The equipment and services of Juxianlou have been upgraded. After the upgrade, Juxianlou can provide Baihua wine and top-quality fragrant tea, and musicians can play to help you entertain them.

A Niu didn't expect Juxianlou to attract talented people for his territory every now and then. A Niu knew very well that the real decision of whether the talents in the savages were willing to contribute was the lord's personal reputation. It might be the comprehensive strength of the territory, some appealing figures (such as Wang Yue, Zheng Xuan, and Lu Zhi), or an opportunity to improve their abilities (the hometown of martial arts, the hometown of benevolence and righteousness), or even a certain product (such as Baihua Wine), but it would never be just because of this building. This special building can at most have some amplification effect.

The size of the increase is unknown, but it will add points to attracting talents.

If useful, it is worth doing.

As for when Juxian Building will bring surprises again, a certain city lord does not expect it and let it go.

Jingzhou, Xiangyang City.

Xiangyang has always been an important town in Jingzhou. More than a year ago, Xiangyang was only a county in the southern county of Jingzhou. In the second year of Chuping (191 AD), Emperor Xian of Han appointed Liu Biao as the governor of Jingzhou.

The situation in Jingzhou was not good at that time. Wang Rui, the former governor of Jingzhou, was killed by Sun Jian. Nanyang, the largest county in the country, was occupied by Yuan Shu. Su led the prefect of Changsha, and Bei Yu was the chief of Huarong. Each of them blocked the army and caused chaos. Liu Biao's life was very difficult when he took office. At that time, the thieves of the Jiangnan clan were prosperous. Liu Biao joined forces to station in Xiangyang and moved the Jingzhou capital from Hanshou to Xiangyang. Since then, the importance of Xiangyang City has increased greatly.

Fortunately, Liu Biao was also quite good at it. He was a relative of the Han Dynasty and had a "soft look". He was famous in the world when he was young, and was named "Ba Jun" with the seven wise men. After taking office in Jingzhou, Liu Biao used the Kuai brothers, Cai Mao and others as the support, and used both kindness and power, and was able to induce things well. He quickly opened up the situation. Since he took office alone, in less than two years, in addition to Nanyang, he was also occupied by Yuan Shu, and other territory in Jingzhou was under control. With such actions in a short period of time, Liu Biao was indeed qualified to be proud.

In the past six months, Liu Biao has been in a good mood and has been talking and laughing with his subordinates.

However, today, in the conference hall, most of the people under his command looked bad, and the Kuai brothers looked as if they were ashen. Cai Mao and other generals glared at the hilt of their swords. Liu Biao, who had always shown gentleness, was also frowning at this time.

The atmosphere was very tense.

Leng Gang stood tall and looked calm, as if the attitude of the people in Jingzhou had no effect on him, but in fact, his palms were covered with sweat. The pressure like a mountain hit him, which made Leng Gang almost unbearable, but he still withstood the pressure. As the envoy of the Prime Minister of Qi and the student of Zheng Xuan, Leng Gang was not humble or arrogant when facing the people in Jingzhou.

You should know that Leng Gang had just started his official position and was reborn from the ashes. Fengxiang City, which was reborn from the ashes, needed a large number of talents. Under Lu Zhi's instigation and call, Zheng Xuan's disciples who were determined to establish fame and fortune walked out of the study and officially entered into Aniu's tent. They became the backbone of Fengxiang's official class. Leng Gang was appointed as the county magistrate in Donglai. This time he went to Jingzhou, he shouldered a special task. This time, it was not a common communication between the princes. At present, Leng Gang was mentally prepared for this embarrassing and tense situation.

Liu Biao didn't take the lead in Pang Ji broke the silence: "Mr. Leng said that Qilin City sent troops. We just heard this statement. Whether Qilin City attacked Fengxiang needs to be investigated and understood before a conclusion can be made. Can you ask, Mr. Qi, the Prime Minister is so confident, is there any evidence?"

"Of course there is, otherwise the Prime Minister would not have sent me to come here."

Leng Gang's answer made the people of Jingzhou feel in their hearts.

Seeing the atmosphere tense, Kuai Liang said: "The Prime Minister of Qi seemed to have determined that the Lord Qilin City participated in Zang Hong's attack on Fengxiang City, which was a war without declaring. The Prime Minister of the State is famous in the world, and I think he will never slander people subjectively. We attach great importance to Lord A Niu's accusations. But as far as we know, the Lord Wuxin City has always been law-abiding and never caused trouble. Mr. Leng, there may be some misunderstandings in this."

"Misunderstand?"

Leng Gang smiled faintly and said, "The Lord of Qilin sent troops to attack Fengxiang twice, and even colluded with foreign races. The desire to put Fengxiang in death was obvious. If there was a misunderstanding, it could only be Wuxin had a misunderstanding about our master. My master was the prime minister of Qi who was enthroned by the court. This status was not obtained out of thin air, but because my master was not willing to rebuild the capital for some reason. My master was puzzled. What kind of "misunderstanding" was that the Lord of Wuxin dared to ignore the laws and regulations of the country, colluded with foreign races, and intended to destroy a prince..."

Cai Mao glared and said angrily: "Hmph, don't be labeled as a big shot! Although Lord A Niu is a new prince and has a unique reputation, Jingzhou affairs will be handled by Jingzhou Prefecture. Does the Prime Minister of Qi still want to take care of Jingzhou's housework? Is this hand stretched too long?"

Leng Gang's eyes cold and responded without hesitation: "My lord has no interest in the internal affairs of Jingzhou. However, Wuxin fought twice and sent troops to Fengxiang, wanting to kill my lord. He will not give up this revenge... This matter must be settled! Hehe, before leaving, our lord said that Qilin City did not act according to the rules and should bear all the consequences. Even if this matter is caused by the emperor, Wuxin cannot rebel against the sky!"

Cai Mao was stunned and Fengxiang envoy said he wanted to make trouble for the emperor. Although Cai Mao was angry, he did not dare to say anything again.

Cai Mao knew the truth whether Qilin City had attacked Fengxiang.

Jingzhou Prefecture not only knows it, but also has direct participation!

Wu Xin was originally a favorite of Jingzhou. After the failure, he knew that it was impossible to be good, so he spent a lot of effort to move around Jingzhou Prefecture. He naturally had some advice on the protection of Liu Biao, the Kuai brothers, and Cai Mao.

After discussing it, the Jingzhou Prefecture thought that Liu Biao was a relative of the Han Dynasty and his official position was above Aniu, and the two territories were no less than a thousand miles apart. There were other forces in the middle, so Aniu was unlikely to risk arguing with Jingzhou Prefecture and cross-border expeditions. According to what Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue thought, Fengxiang, who had just won a terrible victory, urgently needed rest and recuperation, and the obtained territories also took time to digest, so it was not appropriate to fight again. Jingzhou Prefecture only had to deny it at the beginning, even if it could not let a certain city lord retreat. It also made Aniu understand that Jingzhou Prefecture could not tolerate Qilin City being attacked, and later made a gesture of mediation from it, so that Wuxin could pay some compensation and give Aniu a step. Of course, the Prime Minister of Qi would not cause trouble.

They underestimated Fengxiang City’s determination!

From the Qi State envoy, they realized that A Niu didn't seem to be planning to give up!

The development of the situation completely exceeded the script that Jingzhou people believed, and they were somewhat caught off guard.

Why do the prime minister dare not give face to the governor? The Han clans who are ranked among the "Eight Horses" dare to offend them? Have you ever thought about the consequences of offending Jingzhou Prefecture? If you want to force a cross-border battle, you have no intention. Feng Xiang has only a lot of soldiers. Do you consider the Jingzhou army a native chicken and a tile dog? It is said that Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Zhang Yang are deeply hostile to Fengxiang. A Niu is not worried that these princes will take advantage of the situation to rob?

How fat is Zheng Aniu's courage?

Kuai Yue coughed lightly and said leisurely: "It seems that Lord Aniu has a deep prejudice against the Lord Wuxin City... However, even if there is a dispute between the two families, Lord Aniu is in Qingzhou, and Qilin City is under the jurisdiction of Jingzhou. Even if a mistake is made, it should be handled by Jingzhou Prefecture. If Fengxiang's army attacks Qilin City, we all know that there is a reason, but the outside world will think that this is a bad intention of Qi compared to Jingzhou Prefecture... Therefore, for the reputation of Jingzhou Prefecture and the reputation of the Prime Minister, we will never allow this situation to happen."

The people of Jingzhou couldn't help but feel relieved.

This statement not only showed the attitude of Jingzhou Prefecture, but also implied that if Feng Xiang brazenly sent troops to Jingzhou Prefecture, it would be possible to respond, but the Prime Minister of Qi could not break up. After all, Jingzhou Prefecture did this to ensure "everyone's reputation". Of course, if it really hit that point, Feng Xiang would definitely be the one who made the mistake, because "the mistakes in Qilin City should be handled by Jingzhou Prefecture", this statement will definitely hold up!

The resourceful Kuai Yue is worthy of being an important strategist known as the "scheming of a quarry".

However, since a certain city lord sent someone to Jingzhou Prefecture, how could he be unprepared for these situations?

Leng Gang seemed to have not understood the voice of Kuai Yuexian, and was not anxious or impatient on his face, bowed and said, "Mr. Yidu said so much. The lord of Jingzhou committed a wrong thing. He should first report it to Jingzhou Prefecture for handling. I believe that with the wisdom of the governor and the wisdom of the princes, he will definitely be able to make a fair decision."

When everyone heard that the Qi envoy agreed to be dealt with by Jingzhou Prefecture, they breathed a sigh of relief, but Leng Gang continued: "My lord is not only the lord, but also the prime minister of the imperial court. However, our lord is willing to resolve the matter according to the rules between lords. According to relevant laws, those who violate the rules and undeclared battles between lords will be attacked by the troops of the corresponding prefectures and counties until they are removed from the list of Shenzhou. Since the officials of Jingzhou Prefecture are willing to deal with it impartially, they will report the truth after returning to Qingzhou and wait for good news."

The court does have such rules!

There was an uproar in the hall, and Kuai Yue's face turned red!

To this day, some powerful territories have long established close ties with the power of the princes. Some lords do not actually take some rules seriously (such as Invincible Dongzi). Are the rules not used to serve the strong? Victims usually lack strength, powerless to stop or retaliate. As long as there is no big mess, everyone will generally be tacit.

However, the victim this time was Zheng Aniu...

Kuai Yue constrained Feng Xiang with rules, but Feng Xiang immediately reversed Jingzhou with rules.

He did not expect that Feng Xiang's counterattack would be so sharp, equally high-sounding, and equally impeccable!

Cai Mao could no longer hold back and shouted, "When will we say we want to attack Qilin City? We also say we want to remove the Chinese city, which is ridiculous! I don't believe it. If Jingzhou Prefecture does not nod, the army of Qi's Prime Minister dares to attack Qilin City!"

"Everything should be reasonable."

Leng Gang's eyes flashed with cold light: "My teacher once said: Those who are virtuous can be friends, while those who are vulgar cannot speak. If you do nothing, both people and gods will be angry. Our master originally wanted to punish him directly. Thinking of Liu Jingzhou, a relative of the Han Dynasty, has always been famous for his virtuousness, he sent him to report the news. Now it seems that this is really a waste of time."

"The evidence is conclusive, and no one can save it for personal gain. If Jingzhou Prefecture finds it difficult to deal with it, my family will take the evidence to Chang'an and ask the court officials to give an explanation and strive to punish Wuxin personally. Once the court judges Qilin as guilty, Fengxiang's army will come to Jingzhou. If there is any disturbance at that time, I hope to forgive it."

Cai Mao was furious: "Bold! Dare to threaten Jingzhou Prefecture!"

"I dare not." Leng Gang said he didn't dare, but he had no fear on his face.

Kuai Yue had calmed down at this time and said, "What if the court sentenced Qilin City to no accusation?"

"The court will not be wrong. If you say that Qilin City is not guilty, it is innocent."

Leng Gang said with regret: "However, I heard that the Lord Wuxin colluded with a foreign race and committed a big taboo. It is reported that some patriotic martial arts people will talk to him, so I hope to prepare early." (To be continued.
