Volume 1 Internet Cafe Initial Establishment 019 For the first time
The establishment of the Lan State was slightly later than that of the Chang State and the Kun State, and it is also the founders of the two countries who are more likely to seize the opportunity.
When Cai Bo, the last emperor of Cai State, succeeded to the throne, he was only six years old, and it is understandable that the power of the dynasty fell into the hands of the empress dowager and her relatives.
A group of people who don't rely on their identity to eat their fart, after getting the power, they naturally seek their own benefits as soon as possible. In the first year of Emperor Cai Bo's succession, the already not low taxes were repeatedly raised.
From that year onwards, even if there were no natural disasters, the people at the bottom began to gradually lose their ability to eat.
The taxes were stacked on top of each other, and the tenant farmers at the bottom could not even feed a family of three with the grain they grew for a year.
As we all know, the common people are the easiest social group to satisfy, basically as long as they have food to eat and clothes to wear, there is basically no possibility of making trouble, and they will be a small trader if they are very rich.
But as the saying goes, where there is oppression, there will be resistance, the heavy taxes of the imperial court and the exploitation of all strata, the simple people, finally chose to revolt.
To be placed in the ancient times of Blue Star, in a world where the force value is relatively normal, the peasants rebelled, with a little brains and the number of people, as long as they didn't touch the pig teammates, it was basically possible.
But in this mysterious side of the martial arts continent, it is not realistic. Poor and rich in martial arts, you can't afford to eat, what kind of cultivation do you have? There was no way for the peasant revolt to come to fruition, and perhaps this was the reason why the magnates dared to do so.
But there is such a truth in the world, capital is greedy, and so is human nature. Especially those who are in high positions, working hard for most of their lives, and cultivating hard just to have a good life in the future?
As a result, the former General Cai Guoda, taking advantage of the fact that the ministers of the court and the interior did not react, let his subordinates secretly take over several peasant rebel armies.
The officers, who had the means of production and high-level knowledge, wanted to secretly replace the peasant army, and it couldn't be easier. In just two months, the peasant rebel army, which numbered more than one million, had become a private soldier under the former General Cai Guoda.
After the reorganization was completed, in just half a year, the army project trekked, directly gnawing one-tenth of Cai Guo's territory, and its speed was terrifying.
At this stage, no matter how stupid the person in power is, it is time to find it weird. Hurriedly mobilized the secret envoys in the palace of Cai Guo to investigate, and I have to say that the general's concealment work was too good.
A month later, the general led 40% of Cai's troops to mutiny, saying that he would take his own soldiers to Qin Wang and sweep away the traitorous ministers around the young emperor.
The queen mother and a group of relatives panicked, originally when the last two generations of monarchs of Cai Guo died, they took away a large number of top masters in the dynasty. At a time when the armed forces can basically only rely on the army, 50 percent of the army has defected, who can withstand this?
But the bad news did not end here, when the royal family racked their brains and began to find a way to deal with this rebellion, which King Qin read as a rebellion, a large number of powerful ministers led by the prime minister of Cai Guo also quietly began to act.
Three months later, in addition to the peasant rebel army under the general, two armies called "exterminate the rebels and rejuvenate the country" were raised at the same time.
One of them was organized by the ministers, and the other army was the Jiang family, the largest oligarch who monopolized the economy of Cai State, and was composed of some generals who had not had time to oppose at the beginning.
Civilian officials rebelled against military generals, and even businessmen began to set up their own banners.
There are only a handful of people left in the Cai State Imperial Court! The relatives who realized that the problem was big were not to organize the army to eliminate the newly emerging "civilian army" at the first time, but to try their best to leave with their wealth as soon as possible.
A great country that has stood on the Wudou Continent for tens of thousands of years, Cai State. From the rise of the seedlings of the dead country to the complete destruction of the country, it took less than five years.
After the fall of the Cai Kingdom, the general led the generals to enclose the land and established a new kingdom, Changguo! The Rui State established by the Quanchen and the Kun State established by the Jiang family tore each other apart, there is no way, and it is really not necessary to fight by force to pass the Chang Kingdom.
It's just that in the struggle between the two countries, Rui's army killed a student of the Flying Star Martial Pavilion, and the country was directly destroyed.
Not long after the Rui Kingdom was destroyed, and even the Chang Kingdom and the Kun Kingdom had not reacted enough, a descendant of the Cai royal family, with a large number of Cai State Guard survivors, picked up a group of warriors who were willing to recover the Cai State, and quickly took the territory of the Rui Kingdom.
At this point, the situation of Cai's domination of the world completely disappeared, and in its place, the three kingdoms of Lan Changkun were separated, until one day, the other two countries perished.
These histories, when Cai Ji just crossed over, the system simply introduced him to the dog. Cai Ji always felt that there were many things wrong in this history, but he didn't dig into it, after all, it had nothing to do with him.
"Let's talk about it, why would you rather spend spirit stones to cultivate than spend spirit stones to enjoy? You don't want to tell me anything about the righteousness of the country, do you? ”
An exaggerated expression appeared on Cai Ji's face. In his opinion, in this world where individual force is respected, it is basically impossible for people who are really willing to believe in the righteousness of their family and country, and even if they do, there are very few.
More things that some people are willing to tie up to a certain country are actually interests.
But how much benefit can this little centurion in front of him have with Cai Guo? Promotion? Cai Ji doesn't think that the person in front of him is pursuing these things.
Because of this, Cai Ji is really curious about what the driving force of this man is.
In response to Cai Ji's question, the middle-aged man shook his head without any hesitation. As Cai Ji thought, it is difficult to have a sense of belonging to this country that has been in war for less than 100 years.
The reason why a man is willing to join the army, in addition to the good cultivation resources and good income that the army can provide, is more because of his attachment to this city.
What he is attached to is not the Origin City called the Imperial City, but the Origin City that his ancestors have lived here for generations and used as a basis for reproduction.
He may not be willing to fight and sacrifice for the Lan Kingdom and the orphans of the Cai Royal Family.
But he was willing to sacrifice for the city where his ancestors had lived for generations.
"I'm here to be able to protect my homeland. I don't have any family anymore, so my homeland is my only family! Whatever it takes, even death! ”
"I was born in this city, this land, even if I die, I hope to die for this city, die in this land."
Cai Ji looked at the man in a daze for two seconds, and then showed a smile that was even happier than winning the boss.
He loves warriors of faith! Especially warriors who believe in their homeland! In Cai Ji's view, that faith is the purest.
I think he was in the Demon Realm at the beginning..... Forget it, the hero doesn't mention the courage of the year.
Cai Ji didn't say any more, he got up, went to the freezer, took out a bottle of his favorite happy water, and handed it to the man sitting in the doorway.
Just like back then, he handed his best wine to the warrior he admired the most!
This is the first time since he was exiled that he has given away something he loves because he admires someone.
"After drinking this bottle of happy water, go and fight for your faith. I believe that people like you, even if you are not in the army, when your city is threatened, you will immediately pull out the most competent weapons and kill the threatener! ”
