Five Hundred and Eighty Sixth Strong Suppression

Zhou Xing frowned after hearing this. He knew that this kind of thing happened from time to time in the power struggle of the kingdom. Whenever the central kingship was not strong enough, the local forces would be ready to move. They either colluded together or connected with foreign countries. Just to seek their own self-interest, they will not hesitate to launch countless wars, destroy countless homes, and kill countless people. The crimes are too numerous to describe.

No wonder Princess Sissi said that her brother has been grumpy recently, so it turned out that he was under such a lot of pressure. Zhou Xing didn't have much information, and didn't know what to say for a while, so he asked, "Where are the hidden dangers of war?"

Gene immediately found a national map, which had been marked with many red dots, and each red dot represented a traitor. Zhou Xing counted carefully, and there were 7 red dots on the map! You know, there are only 16 main cities in the Kingdom of Camelot, and 7 cities are traitorous, which is almost half of the country's power!

If the lords of only one or two main cities have different intentions, Zhou Xing believes that relying on the overall strength of the kingdom, it is not difficult to put down the rebellion, but if nearly half of the forces collude together, and even borrow foreign power, it will inevitably cause a large-scale war .

In an instant, a word appeared in Zhou Xing's mind - civil war! Immediately afterwards, he seemed to see a scene of raging battles. Players from different main cities were fighting together, with the scale of millions of people at every turn.

Soon, Zhou Xing realized that this change might be related to the main plot, and he could not change it on his own. He predicted that similar civil wars would occur in other kingdoms, and maybe the entire Orbis Continent They will all be in flames.

Then what he needs to do is to keep Tage in this chaotic world, and even use this chaotic war to expand his strength. Maybe, the territory of the kingdom will change in the future, either expanding or shrinking, full of variables.

"How? What do you think should be done? Do you take the initiative to attack, or wait for change?" Gene asked for Zhou Xing's opinion. As the auxiliary minister and Gene's savior, Zhou Xing's words were very influential.

After thinking for a while, he said: "It seems that there is only one way to stick to it. If we attack rashly, it is likely to give the opponent an excuse and create a more unfavorable situation. Our current strength is not strong enough, and the attack is too risky. We can only stick to it. They dare not act rashly if they continue to strengthen their defense forces. Even when the situation becomes chaotic, the rebels may annex each other because of their interests. The ability to protect themselves prevents them from attacking Dawn King City."

"It makes sense, it's similar to what I thought, but what should I do? Build the city wall? Recruit troops? But the current financial situation is very tight! It's useless if there is less money!"

Zhou Xing rolled his eyes, thought carefully, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, there are many big guilds rising in the royal city, and all of these guilds have people and money.

They are all members of the Kingdom, and enjoy the various benefits provided by the Kingdom for free every day, but only pay a small amount of benefits. This is a shameful behavior! I suggest that they should be taxed heavily, and the name of this tax is war prevention tax! "

"Prevention war tax? Well, I like the name, so who is it taxed?"

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will make a list for you. There are five guilds that are very powerful. We can ask them to pay 50,000 gold coins each. We will definitely be able to raise them within ten days. , These five guilds have opened many shops inside and outside the royal city, and these shops are all hens that can lay golden eggs, we should unconditionally occupy 40% of their shares in the name of national protection!"

"Isn't it too much to do this? Won't it arouse their resistance?" Gene frowned.

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "What did your Majesty say? They are His Majesty's subjects. They should have served His Majesty long ago. Even if they confiscated all their property without compensation, they should be confiscated. What's more, if the enemy is in front of them, if they dare not obey orders, they will be traitors." Sin! Although the humble minister is not talented, he still has the ability to maintain order in the royal city. If any guild is disobedient, hehe, I will personally lead the soldiers to question the crime!"

"Okay, that's great! Zhou Xing, you are really a pillar of the country. I am so lucky to have you as my assistant!"

"Your Majesty has too much reputation, I dare not be a humble minister."

Afterwards, Zhou Xing gave a list of five guilds, which were naturally the Great Qin Empire, the Tenth Reincarnation, the Star-Moon League, the Temple of War, and Huanyue.

Zhou Xing also suggested that the order be issued in the form of a city-wide announcement, and Jin readily agreed. Then, the two discussed many other things and were busy until dawn.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Wangcheng's tax levy order for the five guilds was officially released, and the whole city was in an uproar. The tense relationship between the guilds, just ten minutes later, there was a one-sided argument on the forum, and new posts emerged one after another, all of which were posted by the vests of players from the five major guilds. Regarding Zhou Xing's various accusations and curses, this is the latest The order severely suppressed the development of the five guilds. This policy of harming others and benefiting oneself must have been enacted by Zhou Xing instigated by the king.

They asked to enter the palace to state the truth to His Majesty, punish the treacherous official Zhou Xing, and also called on the top 20 guilds except Tage and Xing and Long Xiang Jiutian to unite to kill Tage and his accomplice Long Xiang Jiutian.

It's a pity that everyone's slogans were shouted loudly, but there were very few people who responded. After all, Zhou Xing had already covered the sky with one hand, and no one dared to offend him. The five major guilds are living examples. Zhou Xing came back with such a national policy, and he didn't need to ask to know that he was playing tricks behind his back, but he didn't expect him to have such great energy, so the major forces became even more jealous of him.

Through the information provided by Jian Yu, Zhou Xing found that during the one and a half months of power vacuum during his absence, the five major guilds had almost grown exponentially. No wonder they could easily take out 10,000 gold coins as a fine. The resources were divided by these five guilds, and the development of other guilds was greatly restricted, but they dared not speak out. Once Zhou Xing came, he broke this fixed situation, and other guilds had more opportunities, so they were happy to watch the good show of both sides.

Of course Zhou Xing wanted to break the situation. His first goal was to raise the guild ranking to the first place again, so he acted immediately and went to the places where players gathered, especially in front of the dungeons. Anyone who saw the five guilds Players, no matter what level they are, no matter if they are men, women, young or old, and no matter what occupation they are in, they will all be killed!
