Chapter 1012 Expansion Expansion
Li Xian's voice was not loud, and his words were very gentle, but such words made Zhu Hong speechless and even choked.
Now the ancient holy world has opened its gates and opened the door to robbers. Once the world passage is opened, it cannot be closed. It is not a problem to sneak in a few or even dozens of masters, and the ancient holy world is indeed powerless to stop it.
However, does this have anything to do with Shang Guo's so-called protection? If you really want to protect them, you can just send someone to guard the exit... Well, it seems that it is not a good way. If Shang Guo guards the exit, the neck of the ancient holy world will still be in the hands of others.
Thinking of this, Zhu Hong suddenly understood what kind of protection Li Xian called "protection".
Sure enough, I heard Li Xian continue to say: "If you want to stop others from coveting the ancient sage world, the best way is to make the ancient sage world have nothing worth coveting.
These good things are collected by our Shang Kingdom, at least they will not disturb the stability of the ancient holy world, and the people can at least get a stable life. In addition, we will also provide technology to the ancient world.
I think, for the country, those so-called treasures are actually not important compared to our technology. Brother Zhu, what do you think? "
Zhu Hong was speechless, what Li Xian said was very reasonable, and it sounded very correct, at least Zhu Hong couldn't find a reason to refute; and it sounded like it was really the case!
But Li Xian didn't finish his sentence, and continued after a short pause: "The Shang Kingdom pays attention to the contract relationship. We have received the benefits of the ancient sacred world, so we have reasons and more responsibilities to intervene in the disputes of the ancient sacred world. Anyone in the fairyland If the power wants to destroy the stability of the ancient holy world, it must first face the sanctions of the Shang country.
Of course, if my brother encounters troubles within the Ancient Sacred Realm, he can also come to us, Shangguo, as long as the legal principles are sufficient, we will never stand idly by! "
Zhu Hong had the urge to roll his eyes. Although Li Xian's words were reasonable, most of them belonged to "hooligan reasons", but Shang Guo was a powerful hooligan, a cultured hooligan, a law-abiding hooligan...
To sum it up in one sentence - the ancient sage world is too weak and can only accept the exploitation of others; if it is not the Shang country, it will be someone else. In comparison, being exploited by the Shang country is already an excellent option!
In the end, the great emperor of the ancient sacred world left dejectedly but full of indignation. The downcast is because of reality, but Zhu Hong will not give up. As long as the ancient sacred world can maintain your stability, as long as you learn the cultivation of the Immortal Domain and the technology of the Shang Kingdom, sooner or later, one day, you will be able to stand on the pinnacle of the world.
…………
However, compared to the ancient holy world, the countries around the Shang Kingdom are not so lucky. They don’t even have unequal treaties, and they will directly destroy the country—or surrender unconditionally and accept the judgment of the Shang Kingdom, which is completely in accordance with the standards of the Shang Kingdom; Either it is war, and in the end it is almost the fate of failure and capture.
Oh, there is another way to go, which is to follow the example of Bian Guo and seek refuge in the Five Elements Spirit World, or go far away, hoping that Shang Guo will never find them.
Which path should I choose? The country of Yue now faces this choice.
Being close to the sea, and so close to the Shang Kingdom, the Yue Kingdom is already a grasshopper after autumn, and it won't be long before it jumps.
Once, Yue State was one of the largest countries in the east of Yingzhou. Later, it annexed Wu State and became one of the most powerful countries in the east of Yingzhou. After that, the country's land area expanded to more than 40,000 miles, almost sweeping the east of Yingzhou.
However, an inexplicable economic crisis dragged down the huge Yue country directly. In just half a year, the huge Yue country fell apart, and in the end there was only a control area less than ten thousand miles away.
It can be said that the control area of Wanli is not bad, but the situation cannot be viewed in this way. At present, Yue State's control area is mainly a traditional area, but it is close to the sea. The short-range missiles of Shang State can hit the palace from the sea.
Recently, the army of the Yue State attacking Qingcheng was smashed by the aircraft carrier formation of the Shang State, and the masters of the Yue State attacking the Shang State also lost half.
The economic crisis has almost taken away the backbone of the Yue country; now facing the attack of the Shang country, it has almost no decent resistance.
In contrast, the reborn Shang State is even more prosperous. The birth of the national ideology has made the Shang State a unified whole. The democratic ideology and the prime minister system have allowed the Shang State to make great strides forward on the road of national progress.
When the Shang Kingdom launched the lunar exploration rocket, the warships of the Shang Kingdom had already sailed upstream and directly arrived at Kuaiji, the capital of the Yue Kingdom. Cooperating with high-altitude aerospace aircraft carriers and aircraft, they surrounded the capital of the country.
The first is the attack by public opinion. The plane dropped leaflets one after another to persuade them to surrender. If the Yue State surrendered now, it would bring huge benefits to the Shang State, so that the Shang State could guarantee that the emperor and nobles of the Yue State would not be killed; even the Shang State allowed the emperor to lead his concubines.
In fact, in the past, the Shang Kingdom also captured the emperors of many countries, but for these emperors, Li Xian did not carve up the emperor's concubines, even queens, princesses, etc. like other victors, but gave these emperors Divide a living area, allocate a villa, and let them continue their past life.
As for whether this life can continue, whether concubines and the like will leave on their own initiative, that is beyond Li Xian's control. But at least, Li Xian reserved the last dignity for these emperors.
This alone is enough to make many emperors willing to surrender to Shang.
For example, in the current state of Yue, after intense struggle and discussion, the emperor of Yue finally decided to surrender the whole country!
When the emperor of Yue left the palace and boarded the warship with the jade seal in his hands, the soldiers of the Shang country cheered loudly. The successive conquests of Hunan and Yue states meant that a new round of rise and expansion of the Shang state had begun.
The army immediately took control of the imperial palace, the imperial capital, and Yue as much as possible. Fan Zide, the governor of public security in Qingcheng, also sent a large number of ordinary soldiers and even some temporarily organized reserves to Vietnam to control public security.
The remaining tens of thousands of miles of land in the Yue Kingdom were quickly controlled by the Shang Kingdom. Instead of daring to take advantage of the fire, most of the surrounding countries surrendered.
In the face of such a powerful merchant country, these countries have been scared out of their wits, not to mention that the countries are still arid and life is difficult. Even many countries in the east of Yingzhou are still in the vortex of economic crisis and cannot extricate themselves, so they can only surrender.
But there are still a few countries that are tenacious to the end. Facing such a country, of course we have to kill chickens and scare monkeys. Intercontinental missiles have long been ready. The intercontinental missiles launched from the Shang country can reach their targets in only a dozen hours; as long as three intercontinental missiles are fired, the palaces of most countries will be blown away.
The soldiers of the Shang Kingdom were rampant all the way, and there were hardly any decent obstacles. The marching speed of the army is the expansion speed of the country of Shang.
The land of the Shang Kingdom is expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the luck of the Shang Kingdom is also growing wildly; at the Temple of Heaven, Ling Zhifeng's busy feet do not touch the ground, and a large amount of luck is tumbling, almost like a volcano, which seems to erupt at any time.
At the same time, with the expansion of the Shang Kingdom, all officially occupied areas, that is, where basic government institutions have been established, will be accompanied by rainfall.
Originally, according to the speculation of the national teacher Ling Zhifeng, and even the speculation of many national teachers, Yingzhou will be dry for ten years; but because the Shang country took the lead in completing the transformation, the Shang country has surpassed the general national level, and the luck directly communicated with the world and broke Yingzhou. catastrophe.
But for the time being, only Shangguo has broken through this catastrophe and has been able to dominate the domestic rainfall-in fact, this is the credit of Ling Zhifeng. Without Ling Zhifeng's adjustment and sorting out, it is impossible to have precipitation every time he occupies a place. But no matter what, as long as there is precipitation, the area occupied by the Shang Kingdom can be stabilized, which is conducive to the rule of the Shang Kingdom.
At this time, no matter on land or sea, wherever the Shang army passed, they surrendered one after another. Sometimes, before the generals and officials speak, the soldiers and even the common people quit. The miracle of the Shang Kingdom has already spread throughout Yingzhou.
In the present state of Shang, the territory of the country is inflated like a balloon. With the advancement of the army, the territory of the country can expand by more than 200 kilometers to the west, south, and southeast every day. The army hardly encountered decent resistance, and it was a march all the way, a crazy march. There was even a competition of marching speed between different corps. For the sake of the war, it can be regarded as a different kind of miracle.
Day after day, time is still moving forward firmly, and will not stop because of anything. However, the turmoil caused by the expansion of the Shang Kingdom has impacted the surrounding world wave after wave.
The Five Elements God Court has begun to retreat steadily due to Shang Guo's intervention.
Although there are masters in the five-element spirit world, after guessing that Shang Guo searched for information about the five-element spirit world from the outer world, he was already a little frightened. The heart palpitations of the five high priests of the Five Elements Spirit Race at the same time seemed to indicate that the Five Elements Spirit World would have a catastrophe.
As for Yingzhou here, let alone. The countries in the west and north of Yingzhou are not worried for the time being. Everyone thinks that no matter how powerful the Shang country is, it is impossible to swallow the whole of Yingzhou. That's what Ning and Liao thought, and it was unanimously recognized, so Ning and Liao are still uniting and forming alliances with Shang.
In fact, even the countries in the middle of Yingzhou are not very worried about the expansion of the Shang Kingdom. Many people think that no matter how advanced the technology of the Shang Dynasty is, it will be difficult for the country to exceed 200,000 li or 100,000 kilometers—and a radius of 200,000 li is already the area of the Great Zhou Dynasty. A truly united country.
However, the economic crisis caused by the Shang Kingdom has indeed had a serious impact on the economy of the entire Yingzhou. And those countries that became stronger because of industry and commerce collapsed in this economic crisis.
However, the countries within 200,000 miles around Shang Kingdom are already very nervous. I'm sorry, but the Evil Dao Alliance in Jishi Mountain is about 150,000 miles away from Anyang, and it's obviously in danger.
There is also the distance between Qingyun Kingdom and Shang Kingdom, which looks like 250,000 miles. This distance seems to be dangerous.
But now the most worrying thing about Shang Country is...Tang Country!
The rapid rise of the Shang Kingdom made Li Yulong a little restless. Li Yulong saw with his own eyes that Li Xian almost started from scratch, from a small Anyang County, to Anyang County, and finally established a separatist regime, and later became the Kingdom of Shang in one fell swoop, then to the Shang Dynasty, and then to the present "Shang (State) '! Every step is thrilling; every step is majestic.
Li Yulong even witnessed the development of industry and commerce from capitalism to democracy and constitutional monarchy.
Now, Shang Guo's tentacles extend so wide that Li Yulong is a little scared. Look at what Shang Guo is doing now, sending a mission to Dongsheng Shenzhou, and has not returned yet, but Shang Guo newspapers published information: I heard it went well. Tianwaitian directly explores the passage of ascension, and even establishes contact with the moon/spiritual world. Also, they are planning to colonize the affiliated world, and the ancient holy world has been successfully controlled by the Shang Kingdom.
At night, Li Yulong stood on a tall building in Tang State and looked into the distance. In the south at night, the night sky is a little red. Li Yulong knew that it was nothing but the night sky illuminated by lights. There, Anyang City was surrounded by Beidou City, and now it should be said to be Anyang City and Beidou City.
"Who are you!" Li Yulong said to himself. Obviously, the "you" in Li Yulong's mouth refers to Li Xian.
When Li Xian woke up, Li Yulong didn't have doubts. At that time, Li Yulong asked Li Xian a question - who are you? Li Xian's answer in the later period actually did not satisfy Li Yulong. But the mood of being a parent makes Li Yulong not want to, and dare not expose that possible, cruel reality.
Li Yulong knew very well that Li Xian's soul had already been scattered, otherwise he would not have used the spirit summoning technique. But spiritualism, in fact, is not so perfect; to be precise, how many secrets are there in spiritualism, even a soul-invoking wizard of the Sanxian level can't figure it out.
Having said that, if you can figure it out, you will not be a Sanxian, but a saint.
There was a sound of footsteps, and Li Yulong knew it was Li Liang without turning his head. Li Yulong asked directly: "What do you think of your third brother?"
Li Liang didn't seem to have thought that Li Yulong would ask this question, so he thought for a while and said, "Very good. Maybe it won't be long before we can counterattack Chixian Shenzhou and take back the glory that belongs to you, Dad."
"I'm not asking you this question. Don't you think your third brother has changed too much?"
Unexpectedly, Li Liang laughed: "Father, I think he is my third brother, and he is only my third brother. In fact, we have suffered a lot on the surface over the years, but it is for businessmen. Look; in secret, the third brother still gave us enough care. Otherwise, there would not be the present Tang State, which is more than 30,000 miles wide."
Li Yulong's expression was a bit stunned, and after a while he suddenly smiled: "That's right, I was on the edge of a corner. That's right, that's right, he's the mistress, and he's just the mistress.
By the way, we haven't gone to celebrate the Shang Kingdom's recent catastrophe. You get ready tomorrow to celebrate. By the way, meet your third brother and ask Tang Guo how to go next. But remember, you must tell him that I don't like the constitutional monarchy. "
