The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 809: Direction challenge planning

Views:

After the war, the immortals returned to court with rich spoils of war.

The trophies are mainly magic treasures of immortals from outside the territory, such as golden belts for murder and arson. For monks, every war is a process of taking the other party's wealth as their own, which is not much different from robbery.

The mortal property is distributed between the government and the people, and it takes a lot of time to rob it, but for the fairyland, the wealth lies in the monks, and it is easy to harvest the spoils.

"A country cannot be without a king for a day, and the same is true for the Immortal Domain. Since the Immortal Emperor has been killed by you, it is logical for you to succeed the Immortal Emperor. With your current cultivation base and power, no one dares to disobey."

On the way back, Feihong Shengfo told Li Ye about this matter. In her opinion, this matter cannot be delayed.

From the point of view of the heart, this is also the result of Feihong Shengfo's joy. Foyu is now Li Ye's trilogy, and Li Ye succeeds the Immortal Emperor, leading them will be more justified.

For Li Ye and the Buddhist monks, this is also a kind of rectification. Before, they were similar to self-reliant country princes. Now that they have achieved great success, once Li Ye becomes the emperor, they will be the orthodox army of the imperial court.

Of course, Li Ye had no reason to object to this.

Although in the mortal world, due to Li Yan's affection, he has not been enthroned, but in the fairyland, after Li Ye killed the emperor, there is nothing that can prevent him from being justified and taking over the power of the fairyland.

But before that, Li Ye still needs to take care of some things, so as to avoid any hidden dangers in the future.

Back in the Immortal Court, the monks "set up camp" on the top of the mountain - mainly to arrange houses for monks in the Buddhist realm and monster monks. After all, they had no residence in the Immortal Court before. During this period, the Yaozu monks were most in high spirits, climbing pillars and walls everywhere, showing their uninhibited temperament at a glance.

After arranging the issue of stationing, Li Ye called Master Feihong, Niu Demon King, Yang Jian, and Master Tongtian to the main hall where he was staying, and began to discuss the establishment of a new order in the Immortal Territory.

Li Ye got straight to the point: "The Immortal Emperor is dead, and the foreign enemies have been eliminated. From now on, I will have the final say in this Immortal Realm. In the war of destroying the old and ushering in the new, the immortals you led have all made indelible contributions. From now on, you should live in harmony, listen to my orders, and share the fairyland with me. After I finish speaking, who agrees and who opposes?"

Master Feihong nodded slightly to express his agreement, and then looked at his nose, nose and heart, making a dusty appearance.

The Bull Demon King disturbed his head, "The reason for the war between the demon clan and the Immortal Court is to no longer be oppressed by the Immortal Court, to regain the glory of the past, and to once again be in charge of the Immortal Court. Now that this goal has been achieved, naturally there is nothing to say."

The Yaozu's entry into the Immortal Court is to return to the Immortal Court, not to become the Immortal Emperor, and they have not been able to achieve such a goal. By saying this, the Bull Demon King recognized Li Ye as the Immortal Emperor. For the entire Yaozu, Li Ye becoming the new Immortal Emperor is also the best situation.

Yang Jian said concisely: "I agree."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the leader of Tongtian, and said: "From now on, you and I don't have to fight anymore. I just don't know if I am willing to not get the position of Immortal Emperor in the eyes of the leader?"

The leader of Tongtian Sect snorted coldly, saying that you don't want to deceive me, I won't be fooled by you, "We opened up the new situation together. As long as we are all recognized, I naturally have no other extravagant demands. By the way, I can't put I'm under house arrest in Dongfu Palace."

When this request was made, everyone burst into laughter.

Li Ye nodded and said: "In this case, then there is no need to divide the land boundary, let your people live separately, so as not to be unfamiliar with each other. The Buddha Realm and the Immortal Realm will no longer stand on separate hills, and will be unified under the management of the Immortal Emperor. In the future, Xianyu is a situation where all parties are in harmony, and I hope you can set an example."

Everyone looked at each other and stood up to salute, "I will obey your Majesty's order."

Li Ye smiled slightly, accepting everyone's gift calmly.

Do your part.

Three days later, on an auspicious day, the immortals held a grand enthronement ceremony for Li Ye in Zixiao Palace.

The monks from all sides are in two classes, there is a mixture of immortals and monsters, regardless of Buddhism and Taoism, all of them look solemn. They looked eagerly at Li Ye, who was wearing a dragon robe, walked past them, walked to the back of the imperial case step by step, and sat down firmly behind the bead curtain.

"See Your Majesty!"

As Li Ye sat down, the monks bowed down and saluted, shouting long live.

Li Ye raised his hand slowly, with majestic eyes and a myriad of imposing manners, he said indifferently: "Your honors are alive."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Since then, Xianyu has ushered in a new master.

...

Under the setting sun, on the edge of the desert, Yaoge Luolu looked back at Yangguan with a sad expression.

Xiongguan

Although it is dilapidated, the roots are still there. Whether it is the towering city walls or the cornices of the towers with iron pens and golden hooks, they still cast large shadows in the setting sun. It is silent, but it feels overwhelming.

"Khan, let's go quickly, the monks of the Tang Dynasty are not far away from us, don't let them catch up!" a chief ten thousand eagerly persuaded.

Yao Ge Luolu's eyes showed extreme pain, and he was unwilling to leave for a long time.

He knew that if he left Yangguan today, he would never be able to step into Yangguan again in his entire life. Not only that, the invincible Tang army who came out from here would even invade his territory, burn, kill and loot, and bring his people into hell.

When his descendants see this majestic pass again, there will no longer be thousands of troops around them, but only caravan goods. They will be in awe of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty guarding the border, bend over with a smile on their faces, pay the tax for entering the city, and accept the other party's instructions and inspections.

"Shouldn't have entered this city..."

Yaoge Luolu regretted to the extreme, blood and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, "I thought that after entering this pass city, to the east would be the kingdom of heaven, but how could hundreds of thousands of warriors enter Yangguan, but their souls could only return to their hometown, where... ….is our hell… …”

Wiping the blood and tears from his face, Yaoge Luolu turned around and threw himself into the boundless desert.

He has already made up his mind to leave a trail of blood and tears for his people. The ancestral motto: For generations of Uighurs, you must not be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty.

It's a pity that this lesson came too late, and it could no longer stop the Tang army from marching westward.

...

At the end of the year, it snowed heavily in Chang'an.

In Prince An's Mansion, Li Ye was warming wine and admiring the snow in the pavilion. Besides the inseparable elder and younger guards, the heroic King Qi was shaking his folding fan vigorously.

"The Guiyi Army and the Habayashi Army have already made preparations for the Western Expedition. When the weather gets warmer after the beginning of spring, they will go west and go out of Yangguan to take back the Uighur's lair. If there is no accident, the Western Regions will be won next year. At this moment, you should be determined Complacency is the way to go, why do I think you are still so indifferent?"

King Qi put away the folding fan, sipped the fine wine, and felt contented.

Everything in the northern border is over, except for the 200,000 garrisons, the errands below are basically civil servants, King Qi has no reason to stay any longer, and the troops just returned to the court not long ago.

Li Ye, who was sitting obliquely, played with his wine glass, "The important thing for the army to go west is not to defeat the Uighurs, but to rebuild the four towns of Anxi. This is not an easy job, it takes a long time, and requires a huge amount of money and materials to protect.

"The war-torn Hexi and Northwest have no money and food, and the food, fodder, and supplies allocated by the imperial court will not be delivered until the beginning of next spring. Things are complicated in the Western Regions, and the forces from the West are invading. How can I be complacent so early? "

At this time, in the western region of the Western Regions, there was a powerful Karahan Dynasty, which was developing and fighting eastward under the spiritual leadership of Muslims. It may not be difficult for Datang's army to defeat the Uighurs, but if they want to rebuild the four towns of Anxi and restore the former jurisdiction, they have to face them head-on.

The Karakhan Dynasty, especially the Muslims behind it, is the problem that Li Ye must face up to.

After Shimen withdrew from Tianzhu, the Muslims had no strong opponents, and now they were developing aggressively eastward. Before they encountered Datang, there was no existence that could stop them.

Li Ye has been thinking recently, is the remaining secret in the Muslim world

If not all, at least some.

Li Ye couldn't ignore an opponent with secrets.

Speaking of the battle, King Qi naturally had an opinion. She put down the wine glass, opened the folding fan and shook it again, and said gracefully: "Controlling the Western Regions has always been a problem. For large-scale battles, food, fodder and supplies cannot be afforded. The army of this dynasty has always been streamlined and streamlined, and there has never been an army of hundreds of thousands marching west.

"In addition, although there are many merchants in the Western Regions, there is little food, and it is impossible to obtain food locally. Even if the frontier army is allowed to cultivate, it is still a drop in the bucket. It can only solve a small part of the food needs, and the main part has to be subsidized by the dynasty. And once it happens If there is a war, the pressure on the imperial court will be even greater. If this problem is not resolved, it will be difficult for the Western Regions to enjoy long-term stability."

Li Ye knew that the other party was right.

This difficulty was something he had to overcome.

If not, even if the four towns of Anxi can deal with miscellaneous fish, once they encounter the Karakhan Dynasty and the powerful Muslims behind it, the scale of the war will be huge and the war will be protracted, and the burden on the court will be too great.

However, Li Ye has been in charge of military affairs for so long, so he is not helpless, he has his own plans.

After drinking the wine in his glass, Li Ye said leisurely: "To deal with the powerful enemies in the Western Regions, to ensure that the Western Regions are not lost, and even to conquer further places, the Dynasty actually only needs to do one thing."

King Qi's eyes lit up, and he asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Li Ye said: "Enhance the strength of monks."

King Qi fell into deep thought.

After a while, she asked solemnly: "Do you want to replace ordinary soldiers with monks and form an army of monks in the Western Regions?"

Li Ye nodded: "That's right. Ordinary soldiers have to rely on a steady stream of supplies, but for monks, as long as they fill their storage bags, they can meet the various supplies needed for a month's fierce battle. And monks transport Supplies have a large transport capacity and fast speed. The combination of the two will not only reduce the war burden by ten times?"

King Qi grasped the key point keenly, with a look of chill on his brows: "Not to mention that it takes a lot of time to train 100,000 monks, it's just 100,000 sets of monks' equipment—magic artifacts, medicine pills, storage bags, that's all. They are all immeasurable wealth!"

At the end, King Qi already looked puzzled and surprised.

Li Ye was very indifferent, and calmly said: "One hundred thousand monks is not enough, at least two hundred thousand are needed. Moreover, the weakest cultivation base must be cultivated."

King Qi stared wide-eyed, "Is there so much wealth in the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Ye smiled, "Why not? Have you forgotten how many immortals there are in the Immortal Realm? That is the Immortal Realm. Where do they get their magic tools and elixir? After all, the materials are also obtained from the mortal world. The world is the cornerstone of the fairyland and the foundation of everything."

"But that's thousands of years of accumulation!"

"That's why I didn't want to form an army of immortals in the mortal world, only an army dominated by Qi training monks."

"This... is still too unbelievable. There are really so many cultivation resources in the world?"

Li Ye sighed, and said solemnly: "Let me ask you, how much money does your family have, King Qi? You can make a suit of clothes, and ordinary people can't eat it up in ten years! There are so many resources in the world, beyond your imagination. In the mortal world, 10% of the rich and powerful in the world control more than 90% of the wealth

"How rich are rich people? Ordinary people can't imagine it. As King Qi, don't you know? In any era, the top 10% of rich people's wealth is definitely more than 90% of the total wealth in the world. Nine!

"For the cultivation world, ninety-nine percent of the resources were in the hands of the immortals and used by them. Now that the immortals are isolated, these resources are all in our hands. It only takes three to five years. I can use them to equip two hundred thousand monks!"

King Qi was stunned.

But soon come back to God.

Because she found that what Li Ye said was not wrong.

She also lived a hard life. She was precarious when she was a child, and even eating was a problem. I also know that those low-level people have exhausted their energy for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but they cannot meet their needs.

Originally, she thought that the world was difficult and the wealth in the world was not enough, but now how can she not know that the world is difficult, but the wealth in the world is definitely not much.

In the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, there may no longer be frozen bones on the roadside, but the situation of Zhumen's wine and meat stink will never change in the slightest—there will only be more stinky wine and meat in their homes. Because there is more wealth in the world.

Without Immortal Domain lying on the mortal body to suck blood, the resources of the mortal world are definitely enough to form an army of monks.

No, not only forming an army of monks, but in the long run, even people with cultivation qualifications in the world can practice! In that case, Datang's grooming power is more than building an army of 200,000 monks

At this time, King Qi suddenly thought of what Li Ye said before planting potatoes and the blueprint for the future he built.

He wants everyone in the world to have no worries about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and then let those who are qualified to practice practice, so as to establish an unprecedentedly powerful Tang Dynasty!

This was his original intention for establishing Chang'an Practice Academy, and it was also the fundamental reason why Chu Nanhuai and others traveled far to find potatoes.

And now, with the development of Chang'an Practice Academy and the large-scale planting of potatoes, two hundred thousand qi-training monks will definitely appear in Datang in five years' time! During this process, Li Ye had enough time to collect various cultivation resources, forge magic tools, and refine medicine pills.

Every year, with each new batch of monks, Li Ye can equip and train them in time.

Year after year, until five years later...

At that time, no matter how big the Western Regions are, they will not be that big anymore.

Thinking of this, King Qi looked at Li Ye with a fiery light of admiration.
