Chapter 121: Choice

The merger of fifteen elven civilizations is definitely a great event for the empire, and its importance is undoubted. Therefore, Li Zheng has been closely following the progress of things, and is ready to take action in person if there is a difference.

He didn't believe that all of the fifteen civilizations would honestly accept the incorporation of the Origin Empire. There are always people who are mavericks, and there are always people who think differently.

But in the end, Li Zheng did not wait for the opportunity to make a move.

The masters of those fifteen civilizations are truly aware of current affairs. When they returned, they gathered the elders of the civilization and announced the incident, and explained the reason.

The intimidation of the Lord of the Plane is unquestionable, and most of them have yielded, but there are still fierce opponents, even at the cost of using force.

But in an instant, it was bloodily suppressed by the domination of various civilizations. Soon, the mind was unified.

In the final analysis, it is only a small group of people who really make the decisions about the development path of a civilization. As long as this small group of people unify their thinking and get things done, it will naturally go smoothly.

Therefore, the merger was directly put on the agenda.

The official authorities of the Empire, with the cooperation of the principals of all civilizations, acted quickly.

First of all, there are statistics.

Army, population, land, resources, technology, cultural materials, etc., etc. Encompasses all aspects of a civilization, in it.

It took a year of unification for the empire to come up with detailed data.

No way, every civilization is a behemoth. All aspects are complex. It only took a year to complete the integration, and its efficiency is already excellent.

After the integration of all data is completed, the next step is to promote all aspects of policies, ideology, culture, material technology and so on. and the relocation of the population, and other plans, the Government Council has also begun to implement them.

At the same time, the armies of these fifteen civilizations were also handed over to the Imperial Military Affairs Yuan one after another under the condition of ensuring the stability of the front line. The entire military system, which encompasses fifteen civilizations and fifty-four planes, is also controlled by the Imperial Military Affairs Yuan.

So far. The number of imperial armies has grown dramatically countless times. After merging the armies of fifteen civilizations, the number of existing armies in the empire has reached 180 billion!

180 billion!

This is a staggering number, before the annexation of these fifteen elven civilizations, plus the number four worlds, the total population of the empire is less than a quarter of this number!

With such a huge number of troops, Li Zheng was once worried that the Military Affairs Yuan would be difficult to control. However, it was later found out that it was unfounded.

Zhou Yu is not a dry eater.

Although the number of troops exploded in an instant. In the early days, it was a bit of a scramble. But it only took a few months for him to sort out the overview of the 180 billion army and quickly take control of the situation.

Shenzhou floating island, in the imperial palace, the court hall.

Li Zheng is high and sits on the dragon seat. Under the majestic steps, the left and right civil and military are juxtaposed.

the Governor of the Government Council, more than 10 national officials, ministers, deputy ministers, and the world governors of various subordinate positions; Generalissimo of the Military Affairs Yuan, Ministers and Deputy Ministers of the Military Affairs Yuan, Governors of the World Military Affairs of the Affiliated Planes, and Commanders of the Major Army Corps. More than 100 people. Come together.

In addition, fifteen masters of the original elven civilization, one hundred and fifty elders and elders of various civilizations and other high-ranking officials are also here.

The princess Li Jin was also dressed in a costume. sat next to Li Zheng.

In the hall of this court, the atmosphere is solemn and rigorous, and the pressure is heavy and awe-inspiring. Li Zheng was condescending, his eyes took everyone's expressions into his eyes, he bowed his head slightly, and said, "Before the court meeting." I have good news for you. ”

Good news?

Everyone in the hall was confused.

Even Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang also had some doubts.

What other good news?

Li Zheng smiled slightly, with a happy look on his face. Such a look, even when annexing fifteen elven civilizations. None of them have ever appeared.

"I, Li Chongxiao, rose in the end of Weiwei and founded the country thirty-five years ago. In that year, my eldest son and eldest daughter were born. And today, my Li Chongxiao's first grandson was also born! ”

Li Zheng's grandson!

Emperor Sun!

When the people in the hall heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up, and then they all got up and congratulated the emperor on the birth of his grandson.

Li Zheng waved his sleeves and said with a smile: "Although the third child of my family is not successful, he finally has something that makes me happy." In the early hours of the morning, my son Li Hongzhi's concubine Anya gave birth smoothly, and added a male Ding to my royal family hahaha It's good, good! ”

Li Zheng said a few good words in a row, but the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.

Anya and Li Hong have been married for several years, and they have been pregnant for three years, and finally gave birth to a small life. This is Li Zheng's direct bloodline, and it is the continuation of the Li family!

Although Li Zheng has been long-lived, he does not care about future generations, but cares more about it.

He clearly knows that as the degree of evolution of life forms increases, the probability of producing offspring will become smaller and smaller. Now, except for Li Hongcheng's family, the other children are still single.

If they don't have the idea of starting a family, then when they all become detached, they will hardly be able to produce offspring.

Now that Li Hong has a son, Li Zheng is finally relieved.

Looking at His Majesty's steps, a group of important ministers sincerely congratulated, and Li Zheng was naturally in a very comfortable mood.

After a long time, I entered the main topic of the court meeting.

"Three years ago, the empire had four full-dimensional worlds, including the mainland, with a population of 800 million. And now, three years later,"

Li Zheng's eyes were scorching, and his power was like a tide: "The empire has a population of more than 230 billion, and there are sixty-three subordinate plane worlds!" ”

"This is a qualitative leap forward and a leap forward on the road of civilization!"

Swallowed fifteen elven civilizations, and obtained fifty-five dimensional worlds that these fifteen elven civilizations were still under control or semi-control. Coupled with the five dimensional worlds owned by the empire itself, as well as the three dimensional worlds that have been raided out of the more than ten dimensional worlds that Li Zheng has searched for this year, the total number is sixty-three.

Among these sixty-three dimensional worlds, the fifty-five dimensional worlds that originally belonged to the elven civilization were the most densely populated. These fifty-five dimensional worlds have a population of more than 2200 billion!

"The empire has been able to develop so far, and the kings have contributed a lot." Li Zheng smiled. But then he said: "However, this step is also a difficult step. In charge of sixty-three dimensional worlds, more than two trillion people, and with the pace of the empire's expansion, this data. And it will gradually improve. This is also a severe test for you. ”

"Only by taking this step can the empire take off. So gentlemen, the next is the most difficult time. ”

After summarizing a few words of encouragement, Li Zheng paused, and then said: "Today's court meeting, the first issue to be discussed" He set his eyes on the high-level cadres of the original elf civilization.

"Tyhir and others have brought about the convergence of civilizations. Meritorious service to the Empire. Li Zheng nodded to Tai Hill and the others, and said with a smile: "So first of all, it is to reward meritorious deeds." ”

The so-called reward for meritorious deeds is just a reasonable arrangement for Li Zheng to make for these people.

Since they handed over the rights in their hands and came to the Origin Empire, they have been worrying about this all the time, for fear that the Origin Empire will unload the mill and kill the donkey. I heard Li Zheng mention this matter. Immediately concentrated, and pricked up his ears.

For this matter. Li Zheng had already discussed privately with the military and political dignitaries, and he already had a plan in his heart, so he spoke directly and said: "I made a promise to you at the beginning -- I once said that the sages are worthy of respect. So the first one, the sages of the original civilization. All of them can enter the altar of sages and heroes, and be worshiped by all the people of the empire! ”

Hearing this, Tehir and the others got up together and bowed solemnly.

This is not a substantial benefit or benefit, but it gives them peace of mind.

Li Zheng nodded. Let a group of people sit down, and continue: "As for the arrangement for you" Li Zheng paused, his eyes locked on the more than one hundred and sixty elves, and said in a deep voice: "You have two choices!" ”

"One,"

Li Zheng said: "Become the imperial royal worship, the status is transcendent, but ignore military and political affairs. Worship is the high-end power of the empire, and the first task is to achieve detachment and strengthen the empire's heritage. As soon as everything is needed, any materials and evolution methods are provided by the empire free of charge. Unless the empire is at a critical juncture, it is safe to worship and act freely without violating the laws of the empire. ”

"Second, participate in military politics."

Speaking of this, Li Zheng's face became indifferent: "You are all high and powerful in the original civilization, but in terms of my Origin Empire, it is nothing. If you want to be an official or a general, you have no choice. But you have to start from scratch. However, the merit of civilization is also a meritorious achievement. If you insist on joining the military and politics, then I can give you a higher start. If you are engaged in politics, you can start directly from the county level and be a county order. If you are in the army, you can start as a captain, only under the captain. ”

"This article is valid for the original middle and high-level civil and military generals of the civilizations that have been incorporated into the empire."

After saying that, Li Zheng had already taken into account the looks of the others.

Hearing about Li Zheng's arrangement, these more than 160 elf high-level leaders all changed their complexions.

Two choices, one is the worship without real power. Although they are at ease, although their status is transcendent, it is indeed not the best choice for these originally high-ranking and powerful existences.

But the second option embarrassed them a little.

Start from the county level and start from the captain. For them, it's too much of a slap in the face.

In the past, they were either the masters of civilization or the top of civilization, and they all controlled the life and death and destiny of tens of billions or hundreds of billions of people. And suddenly, he became a low-level political official who only controlled one county, and a low-level officer who was subordinate to the captain, which was simply a humiliation, and it was even more uncomfortable than killing them.

But people under the eaves have to bow their heads.

In the face of the powerful Plane Master, they had no choice.

After a long time, these more than 160 people have all made a choice.

The older ones and those who look more heavily on the opposite side of the skin have chosen to become offerings. Those who are still young, those who are ambitious, and those who are not willing to be dull, choose to join the army and politics.

After they each made their choices, Li Zheng bowed his head slightly and said with a smile: "Whether it is to become a worship, or to join the army and politics, maybe you will be humiliated in your heart, thinking that I am doing it with my heart." But I tell you, in my Empire of Origin, that's it. ”

"Besides, being an offering is not a bad thing. Isn't attainment of detachment yet appealing to you? ”

"And those who are in the army and politics can never be county commanders and captains all the time. As long as there is talent, as long as there is merit, the promotion of those who should be promoted, and the promotion of those who should be promoted, are absolutely unambiguous. ”

"So don't be burdened. I don't deliberately target anyone, and I don't ignore anyone's credit. (To be continued......)
