Chapter 9 Targeting
"criminal……"
This is not surprising, there will be such people everywhere - they always think that they will be the luckiest one, or that their own power can solve all problems (or that their own power allows them to ignore others who are stronger)
rules made by people).
Therefore, they broke the rules and became criminals, and compared to ordinary people, criminals in the Cultivation Empire are more difficult to solve.
Because they are all people with some skills, how to control them has become a huge problem. Before they invented enough magic weapons, Tianhuo and the others chose a simpler and more crude way: kill them all!
Liu Xuan disagreed at first. At that time, he was still very pure and loving, so he worked very hard to mass-produce the magic weapon for controlling cultivation, and finally solved the problem of controlling criminals.
However, he ignored one problem, that is, when sharper spears appear, stronger shields will definitely appear. Liu Xuan tinkered with this kind of thing. Although it solved the problem of controlling criminals to a certain extent, it also
This has spawned more bizarre methods - just to avoid being controlled by these things.
Therefore, it is basically impossible to truly eliminate criminals. Even if Liu Xuan has specialized talents to update similar magic weapons every now and then as the empire becomes more and more powerful, this problem still cannot be completely solved.
Correspondingly, there is a new method - exile!
Throw it outside the borders of the empire and cause harm as you like! If you do well and help the empire conquer a few good planets, you may even get rewards from the empire - the prosperity of the adventurer industry is also related to this order.
But even so, Liu Xuan had very strict control over the punishment method of exile when he was there. But he did not expect that after he left, the Immortal Kingdom under the rule of Skyfire would undergo such a big change - criminals could form an expeditionary army.
The backbone of the country is depleted. Then what kind of chaos will the country’s internal affairs be like?
I just heard Liu Yun say that the empire is getting more and more chaotic, but he really didn't take it seriously. There were many problems within the empire when he was there. After all, the empire is so vast, and it is not easy to manage such a large place.
But looking at it now, the problem is much more serious than when I was there.
If you think about it carefully, this is not surprising.
Although the empire was large at the beginning, there were also many people in charge. There were five or six people who could make the decision, including myself. They could still make the decision on everything. The next level up, there were even more people. People like Liu Yun also
It can help relieve worries.
But what about now? The Immortal Kingdom, which inherited most of the empire's territory, is still so huge. Although it seemed smaller when it was first divided, the large-scale exile of criminals led to an increase in the number of expeditionary forces, but it also slowed the expansion of the Immortal Kingdom at all.
Not reduced.
As a result, the territory of the Fairy Kingdom is getting bigger and bigger, but the governance has never been able to keep up. Now, except for some core areas, many places in the Fairy Country are actually in chaos, and no one cares about it at all.
Don't come.
Heatri established a kingdom and took away his elite and a group of talents close to him.
Mo Mo and A Fei also took away a batch.
In addition, Lu Jing, Bai Zhan, and Zhou Hong all took away a batch. Tianhuo only had a few of his cronies at hand.
Things that used to be taken care of by dozens of people now fall on one person. It would be strange that he is so busy - he must be really busy and manage the entire empire in an orderly manner. Liu Xuan, don't think about it, just do your best.
A big man who runs his own business is a real man.
I am so busy. Many problems have piled up, even if they are small problems, but the territory is so vast, and if there are too many small problems, they will become big problems.
"Looking at it this way, Tianhuo is in a lot of trouble right now!"
After rubbing his chin, Liu Xuan found that his chances of winning were greater than ever!
At present, the Immortal Kingdom is the strongest, but no matter how strong it is, it is useless. He can't free his hands to deal with him now. Even if he wants to, he can eat away at the Immortal Kingdom in small bites from the outside. Tianhuo can only watch helplessly.
Watching his own power being swallowed up, there was almost no way he could do it.
Of course, if he is smart enough, he should shrink the power in his hands, control those key places, and seek a decisive battle with himself when he comes to the door - in general, the power of the fairy country is still far stronger
For the Han Dynasty, it would be extremely disadvantageous for the Han Dynasty to engage in such a large-scale decisive battle.
And there is no problem of too many troops in the universe, so the fairy kingdom's strength and military advantages can be fully utilized.
If Tianhuo is stupid and has to send troops bit by bit to fill the hole, then he will be asking for death...but he shouldn't be that stupid.
At the same time, this kind of behavior of sending troops here will make the big man adapt to this level of war faster, which is like helping himself to level up.
"It's so beautiful, it probably won't come true!"
Liu Xuan did not expect this to happen. Even if Tianhuo really did not choose to shrink his strength and fight with him, he would not choose such a stupid method. Perhaps ignoring it would be the most likely choice for him to make.
"In this case, we can give priority to dealing with the surrounding guys!"
The forces of Bai Zhan and Lu Jing are both approaching their own direction, while the one a little further away is Zhou Hong - this guy's forces are also relatively powerful. He actually established a Qi State, nominally subordinate to the Immortal Kingdom, and called himself
King Qi!
But anyone with a little bit of culture understands that Qi means equalization, which means that this guy is actually on one side!
"Take care of these guys first, and then deal with Heatley!"
Liu Xuan spoke out his thoughts, and he did not hide anything from Liu Yun - it is not that he was not wary at all, he thought that Liu Yun was still loyal to him, even though he seemed very down and out, and there seemed to be no other way out.
.
In fact, Liu Yun is now under control. In addition to resting, he must go wherever Liu Xuan goes. All the magic weapons on his body have also been taken away. There are also restricted magic circles where he rests, and he cannot use magic to communicate with the outside world.
Make contact.
In other words, Liu Yun simply changed his direction and was placed under house arrest!
This situation will not be resolved until Liu Xuan is sure that he is still loyal to him. Regarding these situations, Liu Xuan even told Liu Yun directly without any concealment. If he can't accept it, he can leave now.
go.
But Liu Yun expressed his understanding, and he even thought Liu Xuan did the right thing.
So during this period, Liu Xuan often stayed with Liu Yun, asking about the situation and discussing the next plan.
Since Liu Yun didn't know how much strength Liu Xuan had and how big the so-called big man was, he could only give his own suggestions based on the enemy's situation.
"Actually, in terms of actual combat power, Shiteri's force is even more powerful than Tianhuo's Immortal Kingdom. It is also your Majesty's most difficult enemy to deal with at the moment. In comparison, Zhou Hong's side can be spared!"
"oh?"
Liu Yun made several logos on the holographic image in front of him, and then explained to Liu Xuan along with these images: "The powers of Zhou Hong's family happen to be next to each other, and they are interdependent. It is this relationship that allows them to compete with each other.
Confrontation between the huge fairy kingdom!”
Liu Xuan understood. Isn't this similar to the situation of the Xianbei Three Kingdoms? But in this case, because the three families are too close, there will definitely be no less conflicts between them.
Sure enough, Liu Yun then heard the introduction: "However, Zhou Hong and Lu Jing had a grudge at the beginning. Later, they established their own business and had several frictions due to the competition for territory. Although Bai Zhan acted as the mediator, in fact the relationship between the three families was not as good as
It looks so close..."
"If there are foreign enemies around these three families, they will naturally unite together when they are forced to attack. If they attack by force, it will not be easy to win for a while. At this time, if another force attacks His Majesty's army from the side,
So……"
Following Liu Yun's explanation, Liu Xuan has figured out who the so-called other force is - it is Heatley!
Heatley is powerful, has strong soldiers and horses, and has worked hard for so many years. It is the time to forge ahead. No matter what the reason is, it is impossible to sit back and watch the rise of another completely unfamiliar force. In comparison, then
The three families with constant internal strife are easier to deal with, so if Heatri knows of his existence, he will definitely send troops to attack the big man.
"That being said, I really want to deal with this Heatli first..."
I definitely have to fight with Heatley. It is better to take the initiative than to be beaten passively. Moreover, if I take the initiative, I will face off against Heatley one-on-one, but if I wait for her to hit me, I will be surrounded by others.
Even if he was an idiot, he should have figured out what to do at this time. Liu Xuan would naturally not hesitate any longer and directly set his target for the next stage on Heatley's kingdom.
As for Zhou Hong's family... As Liu Yun said just now, the three of them are not united at all. If there is an attack from a foreign enemy, they can unite to resist the enemy. But if others don't provoke them, how can they take the initiative to send troops?
Even if someone sees the key and wants to unite the three families to send troops together, Xiao Jiujiu in private does not necessarily have to calculate when. By the time they figure it out, the overall situation here is estimated to have been decided.
Of course, it is not ruled out that a single family sends troops, but if that is the case, it will save a lot of trouble - it is difficult to deal with the three families together, but Liu Xuan can still cope with it by using some means.
Moreover, if you cripple one family first, it will be much easier to clean up the three families later.
"Then let's do this. The target of the operation is locked in Heatley's kingdom. The staff department will formulate a few plans first!"
Half a month later, after gathering all the civil servants and generals accompanying the army, Liu Xuan introduced the situation in detail, and then determined the next strategic goals.
Until this time, the ministers, civil and military officials finally had a way forward, and everyone seemed very motivated!
"I will live up to His Majesty's expectations!" (To be continued) rq
