Volume XII, Chapter 25

When Jill saw that Lee Gyu asked him to speak, he was not polite, so he approached Lee Gyu's words and said, " Ladies and gentlemen, in business, I am a soldier, soldiers are straight, I don't have to beat around the bush, I will be blunt, we all know that the army is the leader of a country, the strength of the army's combat effectiveness is directly related to the life and death of a country, now we are in a critical period, although the civil strife has been calmed, but it is not stable, and the country of Tianfeng is eyeing us, said at present, the strength of the army's combat effectiveness is related to the life and death of our border country. After consultation with His Majesty the King, it was decided to establish a military rank system, I have fought with all of you, it is true that you, as generals, are indeed the first soldiers, brave in battle, and love for your subordinates, but this does not mean that the army you lead can always win and be undefeated, and now the war is all based on your personal prestige, this is not a long-term solution, because in this way, once the commander is defeated, the whole army will fall into a situation of no leader, of course, it will be defeated without a fight, this I believe that all of you may be deeply aware of this, based on this, it is necessary to establish a military rank system, and reward and promote those who have meritSevere punishment should be imposed on those who are greedy for life and fear of death, so that even in the absence of the commander-in-chief, the troops can fight alone and not fall into chaos, which, of course, requires the formulation of a series of military laws and regulations. Now I have been ordered by His Majesty the King to announce the arrangements for the positions of the major legions. The first corps was headed by Zeng Zhaoli, Ma Or, Liu Linfeng, and Zheng Ti, and was stationed in the Kyoto area, and another army was set up to protect the safety of the palace. Commanders Zhang Peng and Zhong Liyun were in charge, and the Second Army Corps was in charge of four commanders: Zhou Ming, Li Li, Duan Daxiong, and Liang Yuanshan. Garrisoned in the central region, the three corps were in charge of four army commanders: Yang Yuhai, Xie Hao, Lu Qi, and Zhang Luo. Garrisoned in the three northern provinces, my words are finished! If there is anything that is not done, please add to it His Majesty the King!"

Ying Xue saw that Li Guiye and Jir had finished speaking, so she stood up and said to everyone: "The words of Li Xiangfu and General Ji just now are the result of our joint discussion, if anyone else has different opinions, you can put it forward now, everyone is a brother, there is nothing wrong with talking!"

"Very well, Eagle Snow. We've got everything covered, we don't have any opinions, so let's do it. Zeng Zhaoli shouted loudly.

"Yes, Yingxue, Li Xiangfu and General Ji have more experience than us, I think we have covered everything, as for some details, I think Li Xiangfu and General Ji will improve them, I am a little worried now. I'm afraid we won't be up to the task, and we'll live up to the trust you have placed in us. Tang Bin said with some trepidation.

"Yes, Yingxue, I'm so worried!" Wang Zhuo was also a little worried. He is busier than anyone else these days, and he has learned to use less time to hate, which is really a bit of a feeling of Jiang Lang's talents.

"Don't be worried. Isn't this the same for everyone, I think as long as we do our best. I will definitely get through this difficulty, and I will have the guidance of Lee Sang-suke and General Ji. What else do you need to worry about!" Yingxue had to cheer everyone up, this is really not a simple matter to manage a country.

"Yes, Yingxue is right, I think there is nothing difficult in the world, I am afraid of people with hearts, as long as everyone works hard, they will definitely be able to overcome the past. Yang Yuhai also said calmly that when he was sober, he was still more rational and calm.

"Yes, you have to have faith and believe in your own abilities. By the way, I still have one more thing to announce, I am going to teach the Heavenly Pulp Heart Method and the Five Spirit Footwork to all the military commanders here, and I am ready to set up a 'decisive battle tiger' in the major legions, distribute them with the most sophisticated equipment, and also train into a five-element battle formation like a special attack team to enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops, however, each legion is limited to three hundred places, so you must select the best elites to come to Kyoto for training, this matter is not in a hurry, now it is necessary to enhance the combat effectiveness of all of you here, otherwise, how to lead the troops to fight. Ying Xue said meaningfully.

"Five Elements Battle Array, isn't this the legendary set of formations in which the Heavenly Sage dominates the Sky Spirit Realm, could it be that the special attack team is using that set of invincible and invincible Five Elements Battle Formation, it's really incredible. This made Zheng Ti and the others feel a little surprised, although he had been with Yingxue and the others for so long, but he didn't expect Yingxue to hide so many secrets.

"What's this, Ying Xue is the master of the Tianyan Divine Sword, what is this, today we just got a border country, I believe that it won't be long before we can be like the Heavenly Sage back then, across the entire Void Heaven Spirit Realm, leave a name in history, and be immortal!" Zeng Zhaoli said disdainfully, in his eyes, Zheng Ti and the others' behavior was really too much of a fuss, and he forgot that he was even more surprised than Zheng Ti and the others.

"Five Spirit Footwork! Could it be that Zhou Ming and Yingxue are using the Five Spirit Footwork, isn't this the secret of the Lingshan Country's Guardian Soul Clan, I heard that even the king of the Lingshan Country can't learn it, how can it be transmitted to our border country!"

"Yes, don't be too vocal after you learn it, so as not to arouse the covetousness of others, this Five Spirits Footwork, Heavenly Marrow Heart Method, Tang Bin, Yang Yuhai, Zhou Ming, Xie Hao, Liu Linfeng and Xie Hao will be, everyone will go back and ask them directly for advice, and the Five Elements Battle Formation, you have to wait until everyone puts ' The decisive battle array can only be contacted after being selected, because this five-element battle array can only be used by five people to cooperate with each other, so it is useless to learn it alone, however, the basis of the five-element battle array is the five-element footwork and the heavenly marrow heart method, as long as you practice these two things first, you can get twice the result with half the effort when you learn the five-element battle array. Another point, please be sure to keep this matter a secret, so as not to cause a sensation and jealousy of other countries!" Ying Xue said with a stern expression.

"Yes! I'll keep it a secret. Everyone said solemnly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have one more thing to emphasize, given the special status of Eagle Snow. Therefore, everyone must keep it secret, and please remember that our king is called Longji. This is something that everyone must keep in mind. Wang Zhuo's concerns are quite thorough.

"Yes!" replied the crowd happily, taking their relationship. Of course, it was very harmonious, and I laughed on the spot.

"Time is urgent, now is an extraordinary time, please do your best to rush back to avoid accidents. I, His Majesty the King, and General Gil, will be touring the lands in the near future. Li Gui frowned and said to everyone.

"Yes!" everyone left the palace in a hurry, and Li Gui frowned.

After everyone went back, Yingxue saw that Li Gui was still standing there. It seemed that there was something to discuss with him, and when Yingxue saw this, she said to him, "Grandpa Li, do you have anything else to tell me?"

After Li Gui and Ying Xue sat down face to face, Li Gui said to Ying Xue seriously: "Your Majesty the King, the minister really has something to tell you!"

"Grandpa Li, you and I are not outsiders, you can call me Yingxue, and if you have something, just say it. Ying Xue said indifferently.

Seeing Ying Xue's indifferent expression, Li Gui said to Ying Xue with a straight face: "Your Majesty the King." His Majesty is now the lord of a country, and his identity is very different from that of the past. It should have the dignity of a king, the so-called wrath of the king, and the blood will flow thousands of miles. Corpses are everywhere, this is the majesty of the king. It is also the way of kings, and I just observed it. His Majesty still has not changed the habits of the past, the monarch and the minister are too casual, there is no majesty of the king of a country, so there is no king and no minister, there must be no distinction between the upper and the lower, over time, this generation must not put His Majesty in his eyes, when his power is enough to threaten His Majesty, there will be a heart to fight for the throne, this is not the blessing of the country, it will inevitably cause war. ”

"Grandpa Li, you seem to be a little too strict, everyone is brothers, sharing weal and woe, not to mention that as long as among them, who has such a heart, I can give up the throne to him, why bother to fight, anyway, I don't want to be the king for long, and besides, they pushed me up and forced me to be this king!" Yingxue didn't care about this throne at all, in his heart, whoever sat in this position was the same.

"Your Majesty, this is a bad word! You can know the way of the king. Li Gui glanced at Yingxue, who was full of doubts, and continued: "The king is an absolute authority, not only to be able to stand up, but also to control people. The so-called one will succeed in the bones, a word to prosper the country, a word to lose the state, to become a hegemon, must be in exchange for the lives of countless dead and wounded, in fact, the position of the king was originally sitting on the blood, I think you should be clear about this, in fact, this is only the first step of the king's way, after sacrificing countless people, in exchange for the king's position, does not mean to sit back and relax, inside, with you to fight the world, know your details, and as a king, the most taboo is to let people know your mind, know your weaknesses, and in their hearts, do not believe in you, may not dare to conflict with you head-on for a while, but once they are full-fledgedAfter all, the throne is covetous, and the affairs of the whole country are pressed on you, so you must be careful in your words and actions. If you are a little careless, you will go against the grain, cause the anger of the people, you will become the king of the country, and you will be infamous through the ages, even if you are diligent in government for the people, do your best, but after all, personal power is limited, and the king of a country, is the person who controls the life and death of the whole country, your every move is related to the life and death of a number of lives, a little careless, it will be a big mistake, the heavy pressure makes you worry about the country and the people all day long, such as walking on thin ice, although you are kind-hearted, but in the eyes of others you are not so, and you do not sit on this throne, the number of people who want to sit on this seat is countless, so the way of the king is really the most difficult thing in the world!”

"This, this, isn't it a little too alarmist, but these days I do have a deep understanding that the burden on the shoulders of the king is indeed not light, may I ask Grandpa Li, is there any good way to solve this problem? It is best to have the best of both worlds. Ying Xue was a little shocked when he heard this, it seemed that he didn't fully understand what Li Gui meant.

"All the real kings, after the founding of the country, must first kill the founding fathers, in order to prevent future troubles, one can prevent these people from plotting, and the other can establish authority, so that the whole country knows that the power of the king is inviolable, if not, at least these founding heroes, deprived of military power, put them on the shelf. Discard and keep a close watch. In this way, the authority of the king can be truly established. Consolidate your throne. Therefore, the minister thought that people like Wang Zhuo, Tang Bin, and Yang Yuhai had high prestige in the army. They are all obstacles to you, and they are too casual between you to be removed before they can be dealt with. How many brothers and subordinates have killed each other because of the struggle for the throne throughout the ages, is there still a small precedent for this? As a king, you must make a decision on the spot in order to achieve great things!" I didn't expect Li Gui to propose such a proposal to Yingxue, I didn't expect that as a king, he would actually poison his brother, and I didn't expect the so-called way of the king to be so terrifying. Ying Xue shook her head when she heard this.

"No, no, how can this be done, these brothers share life and death with me, and we are in trouble together, and I can have today is definitely what they sacrificed their lives in exchange, wouldn't I go to the house to draw ladders, unload mills and kill donkeys! I, Ai Qi Yingxue, would never do such a thing as a beast, even if I wasn't the king of this border country, it didn't matter!" Yingxue said with a resolute face, how could he be willing to do such a thing!

"Alas. I knew you wouldn't listen to me, but you'll find out later. Although you refuse to believe my words today, you will see the hearts of the people over time. Hopefully you'll be able to keep it in mind, at least. You also have to have an extra mind, the so-called defense of people is indispensable, I will not mention this matter again in the future, you should be careful yourself! Li Gui looked a little sad, although Ying Xue's idea he also knew was right, kindness and sincerity are not a bad thing, Li Gui also hoped that Ying Xue would be kind and sincere, but sometimes life is like this, people are in their position, they have to seek their own politics and do their own things, this is also a last resort, Ying Xue is now the king, of course, some things must be dealt with immediately, so as not to cause trouble, now Ying Xue refuses to accept his opinion, Li Gui no longer insists, after speaking, he left the palace and returned to his residence.

After Li Gui left, only Ying Xue was left in the entire palace, standing alone in the main hall, Ying Xue really felt a little lonely, and Li Gui's words just now shocked Ying Xue, it should be said that it was fear, I didn't expect that after I became the king of the border country, I would take such vicious measures to keep this throne, Li Gui's words are a bit exaggerated, alarmist, thinking of this, Ying Xue couldn't help but think of Li Fengtian again, it seems that all the qiē today is caused by Ying Xue's so-called father-in-law, however, this qiē is like a fate has long been doomed, Ying Xue has no choice at all。

"Could it be that once people have power, they will be so cruel and indifferent?" Yingxue thought a little and couldn't help muttering to herself.

"Since ancient times, kings have been lonely, this is the sorrow of kings!" Suddenly a white light flashed, and Interception Sky ran out of Yingxue's body again.

"Yes, but in this case, will I not be ridiculed by the people of the world, and this throne is really so tempting? If there really is such a day, I would rather leave!"

"Climb to the top, see all living beings at a glance, although lonely, but not allowed to share with others, the same is true of the throne, lying on the side, how can you allow others to snore, in order to maintain their absolute authority, of course, you need to use extraordinary means, in fact, anyone is the same, I am afraid that the gods and immortals will be tempted, not to mention people!"

"Alas, old man, why do you sigh like this? Yingxue asked suspiciously.

"Oh, I also feel it, I think back then, I saw this kind of fratricidal thing is not a few, in fact, life is not empty, now looking back, it is really sad and ashamed. Seeing Yingxue's puzzled look, he changed the topic.

"By the way, old man, you were the sword soul of the Tianyan Divine Sword back then, can you tell me something about the four gods one day back then, maybe you can find the star god because of this!"

"Alas, I also hope that you can find the star god as soon as possible, but I have already told you everything I know, not to mention that the four gods were the overlords of all parties in the day, and they did not meet very often, so I don't know much about the star god, and I don't know much more about her than you know. It's been more than a thousand years, and some things I've forgotten. Since some things have been dusted for a long time, why bother to get to the bottom of them, just let them be forgotten over time. "The words of the interception are both true and false, but he really doesn't know the whereabouts of the star god.

"Since that's the case, it's also a helpless thing, just let it go. Yingxue didn't bother to think about it now, he didn't expect the task sent to him by the spirit god to be so difficult, and he didn't know if he could find the star god, if he couldn't find the star god, wouldn't he have to stay in the empty sky spirit realm forever, the road ahead was bleak, there were thousands of worries, the past was vivid, and the thoughts were together, Yingxue suddenly started to be stunned again.

Seeing that Ying Xue's eyes were dull, he didn't know what Ying Xue was thinking so intrigued, he didn't want to disturb Ying Xue, so he turned into a white light and returned to Ying Xue's body, but Ying Xue was awakened by his white light.

"Grandpa, why are you leaving, I still have something to ask you?" Yingxue hurriedly shouted.

"If there's anything else, you can tell it, as long as I know, I will definitely sue you. Jietian thought that Yingxue wanted to ask him about the things back then, but he didn't bother to come out, so he talked to Yingxue in Yingxue's body.

"I just want to ask, where should we start with the affairs of the border country now, I want to do my best to settle the border country, and it can be regarded as the end of my heart. "It turns out that Yingxue wants to ask what countermeasures there are.

"This matter is not difficult, Yingxue, I would like to ask you, do you want the border country to be stable for a long time, or do you want the border country to only prosper for a while!" (To be continued......)
