   Chapter 253 Troubled times will rise

  In the past, Longwangzhai was entrenched in Huyang. Although it seemed to be a rebel, it was still a group of green forest bandits in name.

   Now, Chen Feng openly declared a rebellion and rose up, which immediately shocked the world and the imperial court.

During the more than 180 years since Daxia established the country, there have been many bandit rebellions, but very few really shouted the slogans of uprising and rebellion, and they were basically suppressed quickly.

   And Chen Feng was the only person who openly rebelled over the years. His identity changed immediately. He was no longer a bandit, but a gang of rebels.

   Such actions have caused uproar and stirred up people's hearts. In some people's eyes, this is a sign that the Daxia Dynasty, which represents the orthodoxy of the country, is beginning to lose its control over the people.

  People of insight are worried and feel that the country is in turmoil. If the imperial court can quickly put out Chen Feng this time, the world can still be stable. If the imperial court's vitality is seriously damaged or even defeated, then the result is feared that all parts of the country will respond and troubled times will come.

   And since Chen Feng was born, he has achieved a brilliant record, and it is really difficult for people to have confidence in the imperial court's suppression of thieves.

  If Daxia loses its deer, those who are willing will chase it away together!

  When the world is turbulent and changing, the tyrants from all over the world have to make preparations early, spend their family wealth, secretly recruit troops and buy horses, and seek self-protection.

   No matter how rich the family business is, if there is no sword and soldier to guard it, it is just someone else’s granary.

   And some ambitious people began to have different thoughts when they saw the world change.

  Chen Feng is against it, and so can I.

   However, before this imperial conquest is settled, the ambitious people from all walks of life did not dare to follow suit rashly, but just watched and prepared silently.

  …

  Huyang, Longwang Village, Council Hall.

  The leaders gathered together and were discussing how to meet the imperial army.

   There is no way out after rising from the pole, and everyone is now full of fighting spirit and actively offering advice and suggestions.

   Zhou Jing sat in the main seat, browsing the panel while listening to the discussion.

   Not long ago, he rebelled openly, and a lot of news appeared on the panel. He has confirmed it many times these days.

  [Trigger achievement [Anti-thief and rebel]! ]

  [Get 6000 star boundary points, 10 information state particles]

  [Trigger the achievement [Lead the Armies]! ]

  [Get 5000 Astral Points, [Quality Enhancement - Commander (Medium)] x1]

  [Trigger the achievement [Ten Thousand Enemies]! ]

  [Get 4000 Astral Points, [Quality Improvement-Comprehensive (Small)] x1]

  [Get 50 Information State Particles]

  [Career Goal [For Heaven] Completed]

  [Get 40 Information State Particles]

  [Current Apostle Constant Progress: 567/240]

   This time, he rose to power and directly completed two life goals. In addition to the already completed [Xiao Gathering Mountains and Forests], three of the five goals have been eliminated.

  ‘Chen Feng has only two career goals left. [The prince and general Xiangning has a kind] is relatively simple. As long as he becomes a major force in the separatist side, and when the imperial army is repelled and Huyang is officially won, it should be achieved. As for the most difficult goal, I have to take it slowly, I don’t know if I can achieve it…’

   Zhou Jing looked at the panel and pondered to himself.

The connection to the main world is probably a matter of the past two years. After the arrival of the explorers, the situation has changed a lot, and it is hard to say how it will develop. The goal of [Heaven’s Street Steps on the Bone] is too harsh, and it is impossible to determine whether the explorers will intervene. , then you need to act on the spot.

   He shook his head and turned off the panel.

   At this time, everyone's discussion came to an end for the time being, and all the leaders looked at Zhou Jing.

   "Zhaizhu, what do you think?" Du Ying asked.

   Zhou Jing calmed down and said solemnly:

"Now that the imperial army has not yet arrived, in addition to building fortifications, we also need to replenish supplies. Since we have already started an uprising, there is no need to worry about the face of the imperial court. Before the arrival of the enemy army, I will lead the troops and horses to attack the prefectures all over Huyang and loot them. Official warehouses and armories are used to strengthen the army, and by the way, distribute some food and grass to help the people."

   "If there is a village owner, this plan is feasible."

  Du Ying nodded, no objection.

  The local officers and soldiers in Huyang have long been damaged, and they basically have no strength in a battle. Longwangzhai has not attacked the state capitals before, but it is not enough time. In fact, these cities are regarded as things in their pockets.

   Now open rebellion, these fat sheep will naturally be slaughtered.

  With the brave generals like Chen Feng leading the team, it is easy to break the state capital, and there may not even be officers and soldiers who dare to resist. It is possible to make a time difference and develop a wave before the imperial court suppresses the bandit army.

   Zhou Jing casually continued:

"The army of the imperial court has a large number of people, and has elite weapons, but in my eyes, it is nothing to be afraid of. After the enemy army is repulsed, we will separate Huyang, based on this, sit on the ground and defend it, and I will lead some of them myself. Soldiers and horses went out to the surrounding territories, attacked the state capital, and swept the world."

  His strategy was very simple. First, he formally took Huyang as a base, and let the large army develop as a rogue, and then he adopted the rogue style.

   The risk of being a rogue is high for ordinary people. As long as they run into a wall, it is easy to lose their strength.

His extraordinary and powerful force can ensure that he is invincible all the way, and it is easy to attack the state capital. Being a rogue is the most threatening, and it can put the world's powerful people in danger... After all, Chen Feng's ultimate career goal is to get rid of the world's aristocratic clansmen. Get rid of the target everywhere, can't stay in one place.

There are many drawbacks to this style of play, which is not conducive to competing in the world, but Chen Feng's route is not for hegemony. Even if there are many heroes, his position in the turbulent times is different from others, and he may be the only team that does not accept it. Any "lone army" of the gentry and nobles.

   Therefore, he wanted to leave a way back. He had a self-sufficient base, so he arranged for a large army to guard the Huyang base camp and run it into an iron barrel.

   In this way, even if Huyang is not in charge of himself, others cannot easily capture it, and he personally leads the rogue troops outside to form a restraint, echoing each other from a distance, and it is difficult to crack.

  …

   In the next few days, Longwangzhai sent troops everywhere to attack the capitals of Huyang, but there was no decent resistance at all.

   Many officials had been on guard for this day, and when they heard that the Dragon King Village was coming to attack, they immediately turned their families around and fled the city without a word.

   The officers and soldiers defending the city had no intention of fighting, and most of them opened the door and surrendered.

  Without much effort, Longwangzhai won the cities.

   Zhou Jing specially issued an order to restrain his followers and not offend and harass the people, and the effect was remarkable.

   After all, most of Longwangzhai are local people in Huyang.

   And he is different from ordinary village owners. His shocking force brings high prestige, his position is extremely stable, and he is almost a pillar of faith.

   Although it can’t reach the level of no offense to the common people, it can be considered peaceful at best, but in this era when the bandits are passing like a group of soldiers, it is very rare.

In addition, because Longwangzhai is very popular in Huyang, it does not violate the people, and it also opens official warehouses to provide relief and distribute money to the people. Therefore, every time the state government is broken, many people cheer and cheer, and they welcome Master Wang. scene.

   Consecutive destruction of several prefectures, Longwangzhai raided the government reserves, carried a large amount of ordnance, food and grass back to the mountain, and then stopped the attack on the prefecture, and seriously prepared for the war.

   Not long after, the imperial army, known as 400,000 soldiers and horses, marched from several routes and entered the boundary of Huyang.

   For a time, the army pressed down, like a heavy cloud, shrouded in the sky over Huyang.

  …

   on a certain mountain.

   An old man with white hair and linen, standing by the cliff, looking at the unpredictable clouds in the sky.

  Behind him, there are two young men with strong figures, one in a white robe and the other in a black robe, both of them are extraordinary heroes.

   "Master, why did you call us here?"

   The man in the white robe asked.

   The old man did not turn his head, and said lightly:

"Zhong Er, Di Er, you have been studying with me for thirteen years since you were young, and you have been shouting to go down the mountain on weekdays, but now Chen Feng rebels against the world, and it will definitely set off a chaotic world. , you can leave the apprenticeship, whether it is to assist Mingjun, or to compete in the world, just follow your heart."

   Hearing this, the expressions of the two young men changed slightly.

   There was a look of worry on the face of the young man in white robe, while the young man in black robe flashed a gleam of eagerness to try.

  The old man did not look back at the faces of the two, but just looked up at the clouds and sighed softly:

   "Once the hero draws his sword, it will be another ten years of tribulation..."
