Warlords: I just made a little fortune, but I didn’t build a country.

The two months of special training passed in a flash, and everyone spent the New Year on the snow. However, Qin Lin paid for 300 pigs, 500 sheep, and several tons of wine out of his own pocket to celebrate the New Year with more than 9 soldiers, and asked the heavy artillery division to move out artillery and fire cannons to celebrate the New Year.

After the special training ended, the 7th Army began to withdraw from the snow-capped mountains where they had trained for more than half a year. Many of the soldiers were very young when they arrived, but when they left, they were all powerful elite land combatants.

As for the arrangement of the Seventh Army's soldiers, they were to be stationed in Quancheng, thirty miles south of Beidu Prefecture, while Qin Lin returned to the Qin family.

"Oh, it's not exposed to the sun!"

"Dad," Qin Lin said with a smile, "How can you get tanned in this cold winter in the northwest?"

"Haha, but you look more energetic and mature," Qin Yuanzhong said, "Your 7th Army has completed training, and my Qin Army has also completed training. I have to say that you are really a genius. This soldier training manual has raised the combat effectiveness of the Qin Army soldiers to a higher level."

"That's not."

Qin Lin smiled proudly.

"Follow me," Qin Yuanzhong said with an even more proud smile, "Good genes."

Just as the father and son were joking, Zhang Zhong and Wu Bei walked into the Qin Mansion with serious faces. Seeing the two of them walk in at the same time with bad faces meant that something big had happened, because this scene happened several years ago when the imperial court sent 30 troops to attack the northwest.

"what happened?"

Qin Lin and Qin Yuanzhong asked at the same time.

"According to the intelligence bureau in Kyoto," Zhang Zhong said, "Cao Beiwang died before the New Year, but the boy in yellow robe has been hiding it. Now that the news has leaked out, it won't be hidden for long. Once the local inspectors know about it, they will definitely take action. I heard that the old army and the old demon queen are planning to incorporate the new army into the army department. They already know it."

"what!"

Qin Yuanzhong and Qin Lin were both shocked. The marshal who had suppressed the Daqian Kingdom for decades just disappeared without a sound. It was really hard to accept for a while.

"Always pay attention to the court's movements."

Qin Yuanzhong said, "My Qin army will stay put and watch the situation in the world."

"clear."

Zhang Zhong and Wu Bei left one after another, leaving behind the Qin father and son.

"I didn't expect that a legendary figure of that generation would be gone. I have never admired many people in my life, and Cao Beiwang is one of them," Qin Yuanzhong sighed. "He should have been given a grand funeral with the people seeing him off. Instead of letting his body rot and not being able to rest in peace, and concealing the news of his death, the royal family is really heartless!"

"Always."

Qin Lin also frowned and said, "Now that we have received this news, the other forces will also know it soon. When Cao Beiwang was alive, they were all good rabbits. Once Cao Beiwang dies, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos."

"Humph!"

Qin Yuanzhong snorted coldly and said, "None of them is content with their lot in life. The Hunan Army, the Wolf Army, the Cao Army, and the Black Army have also developed over the past few years. Each of them has become more wealthy, so naturally they want to compete for the supreme position."

"What about my Qin army?"

Qin Lin asked.

"Stay in the northwest and let them fight," Qin Yuanzhong said, "As long as we don't enter the Central Plains, no one will dare to offend our Qin army. It's too early to get involved in this hegemony battle. After all, the imperial court is still the same as before. It depends on whether the boy in yellow robe can control the new army and stabilize the old demon queen."

"Great minds think alike," Qin Lin said, "Let's see what the court will do next."

......

At the end of March 19, Han Xiang, the Inspector General of Lianghu, telegraphed the whole country that the old marshal died in the imperial palace. He had contributed more than seventy years of his life to the court and made countless contributions, but the court could not give the old marshal a burial in peace. This practice really broke the ministers' hearts. The court was corrupt and incompetent, and signed many unequal and humiliating treaties. The people were living in misery. The old evil queen was greedy for pleasure, and the people of the nine states were allowed to do whatever they wanted.

At this point, the two lakes announced their separation from the imperial court, unwilling to join the imperial court, and sent 20 troops to attack the imperial court to seek justice for the old marshal. The same was true for the rest of the forces, except for the Qin army!

The imperial court also responded quickly and sent troops to suppress the rebellion. The Minister of the Army of Daqian Kingdom personally took command of an army of one million to suppress the rebels in various places. As for the emperor's new army, they stayed in Kyoto.

"It's a mess. It's all messed up."

Looking at the telegrams proclaiming himself king, Qin Yuanzhong sighed and said, "It's still chaos after all! This old guy died at the right time."

"Handsome Master."

At this time, Zhang Zhong quickly came to Qin Yuanzhong and said, "There has been a big change in the court. The old demon queen was plotted to death. Now the court army is completely controlled by the yellow-robed boy."

"what happened?"

Qin Yuanzhong asked in shock.

"It was Cao Beiwang," Zhang Zhong said, "Before Cao Beiwang died, he had a long conversation with the boy in yellow robe. After Cao Beiwang died, he handed a suicide note to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother went to Qiankun Palace to send Cao Beiwang off for the last time, thinking of his kindness in entering the palace. Who knew that the boy in yellow robe deployed a large number of troops to ambush and kill the old demon queen.

The 10 new troops stationed in Kyoto quickly took control of the commander of the eight old armies of the imperial court. The young man in yellow robes used iron-blooded means to purge the old demon queen's power. Now a large number of people in Kyoto have been shot."

"Not only that," Zhang Zhong continued, "Army Minister Qian Boshan has also become a puppet. Let the old army of millions suppress all forces and consume the strength of the old army and all forces. Then the new army will finish off the rebellion. This is the plan of the yellow-robed kid."

"According to the intelligence agency, after the young man in yellow robes purged the old demon, his forces seized a large amount of funds and directly expanded the 60 new troops to 120 million."

"How can this be!"

Qin Yuanzhong asked in confusion, "This is an army of 600,000!"

"Hey!"

"We have to say that Cao Beiwang's methods were so powerful that even our Military Intelligence Bureau was able to conceal it," Zhang Zhong said. "Cao Beiwang has been training troops in Meng Province for several years. Every year, he trains hundreds of thousands of new troops. Over the years, Meng Province already has 60 new troops in reserve. Now the young man in yellow robes has added these 60 reserves directly to the new army. Now the new army has reached an astonishing 120 million troops, and they are well-equipped."

"Also," Zhang Zhong continued, "the current commander of the new army is Song Guoan, who died on the battlefield that year. He is a five-star general second only to Cao Beiwang. It turns out that he is not dead and has been training the new army in Meng Province."

"It seems that we really underestimated the yellow-robed kid!" Qin Yuanzhong couldn't help but say in shock, "He hid so deeply, it seems that he had planned it long ago, it's no wonder that your intelligence agency couldn't find it."

"Song Guoan!"

Qin Yuanzhong thought of the court decades ago, one of the three great generals, the first general who defeated foreign troops when the Ten-Nation Alliance attacked the Daqian Kingdom. If there had not been that battle that year, the Ten-Nation Alliance would have forced the Daqian Kingdom to sign more unequal treaties. He did not expect that this dead man would suddenly come back to life.

"Father!"

At this time Qin Lin also walked in hurriedly.

"I already know," Qin Yuanzhong said, "I still say the same thing, I will just sit back and watch the situation. As long as my Qin army does not enter the Central Plains, even if all the forces join together to attack my Qin army, I will not be afraid at all!"
