Chapter 38: The World Alliance's reputation is greatly enhanced, and the Chongxiao Palace secretly covets it
Moreover, at this time, the Tianxia Alliance, which had destroyed the Golden Crow Sect, now controlled the territory of eleven prefectures and one hundred and ninety-six counties. The land controlled by the entire Tianxia Alliance has increased by three times.
However, due to the heavy taxes and heavy forced labor, as well as the brutal oppression of powerful forces including those in those places, the Jinwu Sect has constantly tossed the people in the areas under its control, resulting in the people living in poverty, starvation, and devastation. Therefore, the population in the area controlled by the Golden Crow Sect recovered by the Tianxia Alliance was less than 4 billion. Therefore, the total population in the area controlled by the Tianxia League today, according to detailed statistics, is only 6.8 billion.
It is precisely for this reason that the benevolent government widely implemented by the Tianxia League is naturally very popular among the poor people in the areas controlled by the Jinwu Sect.
Now, it is the first day of the first month of the fourth year of the world calendar. Because the army of the Tianxia Alliance brought a large amount of grain and all kinds of meat to the people in the area controlled by the Jinwu Sect that had been exterminated, they could finally barely live a hungry New Year!
At this moment, Zhou Shuyu is traveling in Jinwu County, the county town that has now been renamed Jinwu County. Now, for Zhou Shuyu, in the process of traveling before, the bleak and desolate scenes in front of him still make him feel unforgettable. Because, even if the Tianxia Alliance opened a warehouse to release grain and worked hard to provide relief, the people here were still barely able to eat a full meal.
Therefore, he had already made up his mind in his heart that he must let the people in these newly recovered lands of the Tianxia Alliance have their fields and their houses, and they must not be allowed to starve and freeze.
Now, when he walked into the county seat of Jinwu County. When he learned that the evil cultists of the Golden Crow Sect who had been executed, even the lowest ones, had a large courtyard with an incomparably large courtyard and countless servants and maids, he was even more ignorant in his heart.
Later, when he heard that the army of the Tianxia Alliance had reasonably distributed the property, houses, and land of these Golden Crow Sect members to those poor people. These poor people, who were poorly clothed and hungry, had houses that could still shelter from the cold, clothes to wear, and food that could barely satisfy their hunger, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.
At this time, looking at the lonely and clean-cleaned streets, Zhou Shuyu really felt a little crazy. To be honest, when he was faced with the cruel war scene of corpses and rivers of blood, Zhou Shuyu didn't feel so terrible.
Behind him, he was followed by Yin Gaoshen, the governor of Jinwu County, Cen Sheng, the county commander of Jinwu County, and Jin Ke, the county commander of Jinwu County, all three of whom were graduates of Kunxiu Academy of the Tianxia League. According to their covert observation and testing, each of them can be said to have both talents and virtues, and is worthy of great responsibilities.
"Alliance leader, the disciple is guilty. At this time, Gao Shen, looking at the scene in front of him, suddenly said with shame in his heart.
"Yes, Alliance Leader, the two of us, as the county warden of Jinwu County and the county magistrate of Jinwu County, are also guilty. Cen Sheng and Jin Ke also spoke with great shame.
"Oh, why do you want to take over? You have just taken over, how can you manage the affairs of the local people so quickly. In the future, as long as you can do your best to let the local people live a good life as soon as possible, you can do it!" Zhou Shuyu said magnanimously.
"Thank you Alliance Leader for your understanding. For them, the alliance leader is like a legend in their eyes, especially since they are all from the bottom of the people, so they naturally understand the suffering of the people better. Each of them has ideals in their hearts, and from the moment they enter the academy, they have long regarded the concept of the Tianxia Alliance as the ideal they have fought for all their lives.
"All right, you don't have to feel so guilty. Now, I would like to go and see the underground palace built by Lou Aotian, the leader of the Golden Crow Sect who indulges in lust and arrogance, and uses countless people's resources to build it for enjoyment. Zhou Shuyu said with some interest.
"Yes, Alliance Master, please come with us. They spoke.
Follow them to the Golden Crow Sect's underground palace, which is heavily guarded by the army of the World Alliance. The guard general guarding the underground palace is named Lou Han, a native of Lingyun County, Lingyun Prefecture, who is only seventeen years old this year, but has become a head of ten thousand households leading 60,000 elite soldiers.
At this time, Lou Han saw that the alliance leader he admired the most in his heart came to him, and immediately said respectfully to Zhou Shuyu: "Disciple Lou Han, the head of the Wanhu family, has seen the alliance leader. ”
"Oh, which academy did you graduate from?" Looking at the young man with clear eyebrows in front of him, Zhou Shuyu asked curiously.
"Alliance leader, the disciple is a graduate of Lingyun Academy, and the teacher is the current Lingyun Academy Dean Su Xuehan. Lou Han said.
"Okay, that's right, I'm going to go in and see the Proud Underground Palace of the Golden Crow Sect Leader. Zhou Shuyu said.
"Command, Alliance Leader, please come in. Lou Han immediately opened the secret door to the dungeon. Seeing the secret door open, Zhou Shuyu entered the secret passage with Gao Shen, Cen Sheng and Jin Ke.
When Zhou Shuyu entered the underground palace, he only felt a little shocked! Looking at the majestic and array of palaces in front of him, he somewhat understood in his heart why the area controlled by the Golden Crow Sect was so devastated. Looking at the Beique Zhu Palace and Qionglou Yuyu, Zhou Shuyu was simply dazzled.
Walk into those palaces and listen to the careful introduction of the three people next to you. Looking at the decorative composition of the palaces, Zhou Shuyu learned that these palaces were all paved with gold silk blankets produced in the three counties of Guangque County, Juque County and Anque County in the north of the Jinwu Sect control area, illuminated by night pearls from Wuhai County and Ninghai County, and used deep-sea pearls from Lu'an County, Yanbai County, Xinghe County, Fanyang County, Ningyang County, Deyang County, Zhaohuai County and Taide County in the eastern coastal area as curtains, and high-quality wood from Yuntan County and other places as beams and pillars.
It can be said that in order to build these temples, I don't know how much people's fat and anoint have been spent. What made Zhou Shuyu even more sad and indignant was that from under the foundations of some of the new palaces around the underground palace that were ready to be built again, countless white bones were dug up. Zhou Shuyu originally wanted to order the demolition of these temples, but then he was determined to keep these buildings and make it mandatory for all the academy students, especially the students of the six major academies in the area controlled by the Golden Crow Sect today, to visit this place every year.
When he walked out of the underground palace, he immediately received a document from the headquarters of the Tianxia Alliance. Looking at the documents, about the big moves of the Sky Hall and the Meteorite Pavilion these days. A smile appeared on Zhou Shuyu's face, he understood very well in his heart, why did this Chongxiao Hall Lord Hu Song contact Yan Xing, the Pavilion Master of the Falling Star Pavilion, at this time? I'm afraid it's not just to fight against the World Alliance.
After all, now that the Tianxia Alliance has eliminated the Golden Crow Sect, its strength has increased greatly. The Soaring Sky Hall and the Meteorite Pavilion will not take action against the World Alliance for the time being until they are fully prepared. However, the combined strength of their two major forces alone was one hundred and eighty-nine even the masters of the Transformation God Realm. In particular, the population of the areas controlled by the two major forces combined is nearly 8.8 billion. And these forces are still a huge threat to the World Alliance.
However, due to the infiltration of the Tiansha Organization into the surrounding sects. Therefore, at this time, the headquarters of the World Alliance had already learned that the three major forces of the Chixiao Sect, the Holy Fire Sect and the Canglei Pavilion adjacent to the Chongxiao Hall and the Meteorite Pavilion had sent a large number of masters to the depths of the Fuhai on the side of the East Fuhai County under the jurisdiction of the Meteorite Pavilion, and a powerful relic would appear on the tenth day of the third month of the fourth year of the Heavenly Calendar.
For the ruins here, Zhou Shuyu and the Tianxia Alliance led by him are naturally not interested at all. However, Zhou Shuyu had some expectations in his heart, if he could delay the pace of Chongxiao Hall and Meteorite Pavilion, and even trigger a conflict between Chongxiao Hall and Meteorite Pavilion, and the three major forces of the Chixiao Sect, the Holy Fire Sect and the Canglei Pavilion, this would undoubtedly be the most beneficial situation for the Tianxia Alliance. However, Zhou Shuyu would not put his mind so heavily on such a fluke mentality.
Because of this, at this time, the Tianxia Alliance is rapidly increasing the number of masters in the Tianxia Alliance, as well as rapidly training and expanding the army of the Tianxia Alliance. However, Zhou Shuyu, as the leader of the World Alliance, has always maintained the principle of preferring shortage to excess. Therefore, when cultivating the masters of the Tianxia Alliance and the officers at all levels of the Tianxia Alliance's army, his requirements are naturally very strict.
Naturally, for those disciples of the Tianxia Alliance who were loyal to Zhou Shuyu, they were even more strict with themselves and strictly implemented the orders of the Tianxia Alliance.
However, even with such strict conditions, the number of masters of the Tianxia Alliance and the number of troops of the Tianxia Alliance still sprung up like mushrooms after a rain and began to grow rapidly.
With the passage of time, the time of the appearance of the ruins of Dongfuhai County is getting closer and closer, and for the intelligent people in the Rushing Sky Hall and the Meteorite Pavilion, this is simply a catastrophe from heaven.
However, in the Chongxiao Hall and the Meteorite Pavilion, there are still the majority of philistines and greedy people. Even, most of the people in the Chongxiao Hall and the Meteorite Pavilion today were imagining that they would be able to benefit from the ruins of Fuhai.
As everyone knows, a large number of masters sent by the three major forces of the Chixiao Sect, the Holy Fire Sect and the Canglei Pavilion can not allow other forces to get a piece of the pie. Even if it is Fuhai, it does not belong to the control of the three major forces at all, but so what? The Ancient Continent itself is a world where martial arts are respected and the weak eat the strong, and the weak have no qualifications to speak at all.
Now, the Chongxiao Hall and the Falling Star Pavilion actually want to snatch food from the mouths of the three tigers, which is tantamount to self-inflicted trouble.
Predict what will happen next, and see how it will be broken down next time.
