Section 32 Beacon Smoke (28)
First of all, Wang Da thought that with the innate ability of the sect master's wife and the power of the divine soul, no one in the world could easily kill his wife. [Full text reading] (hand-typed novel) Furthermore, take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the suzerain's wife dies because of this, there will naturally be other capable people who will stand up and be elected by everyone to take over the duties of the suzerain's wife, which has nothing to do with whether the suzerain's wife is set out or not. The safety of the suzerain's wife is important, but the equality of the will of the gods and souls is more important than anyone's life. ”
Wang Da said, as if he didn't know that Bai Yue was angry when he heard it, and added, "Wang Da hopes that the sect master's wife will understand that people in my Dao must not lose their faith in the will of the divine soul, and no one can be equal to the will of the divine soul." ”
Bai Yue was very impatient in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he said in a calm tone, "The Sword Saint said well, I understand." ”
Secretly he felt ridiculous, how could the life value of the head of the dignified Divine Soul Army be equal to that of a soldier? If there is no leader, he will die, and the soldier is like the hair on a person, how can it be compared? But Bai Yue knew that it was futile to continue arguing with Wang Da, so he simply pretended to be taught and ended the conversation.
On the seventh day after the fall of the Korean capital, the border between Zheng and Korea increased the number of troops in Xiguancheng by 50,000, and there were also 200,000 soldiers and horses on the way to Xiguancheng.
Paying homage to the moon prevented the remnants of the Korean army from defecting to Zheng Guo, and setting up troops on all the border roads that could lead to Zheng Guo, blockading and strictly inspecting them. At the same time, the army that pacified the northern part of Korea will be assembled, and the remnants of the South Korean army in the south will be swept away.
In the northern territory of South Korea, many Korean ** people who refused to surrender were killed by the Divine Spirit Army, and the ruins were everywhere, and the population was reduced by half compared with before the war
Moon worship was very dissatisfied with this, and could not accept the excessive slaughter of the Divine Soul Army. What invades other countries is land, population, and wealth. What is the difference between the killing of all the people, the burning of the villages, the destruction of the fields, and the destruction of one's own money? It will provoke hatred and hostility that will be difficult to dissolve among those who surrender, which will not be conducive to future rule.
"Sword Master, kill everyone, where will the population come from to cultivate, where will the manpower come from to build the city, repair the city walls and roads, and where will the tax come from?"
Wang Da has a firm attitude towards this.
"The Great Immortal of the Divine Soul guides the people in my Dao, those who do not obey the will of the Divine Soul, there is no forgiveness when the will power of the Divine Soul is restored, and when all the fallen people perish or join our Dao, the power of the will of the Divine Soul will give us inexhaustible water. We don't need arable land, we don't need taxes, we don't need slaves. Doesn't the Sect Master's Lady still believe in the guidance of the Divine Soul Great Immortal?"
"How can you not believe it? ”
Bai Yue said sincerely, and he just wanted to shake his head in his heart. If the Dark Awakening Divine Soul Great Immortal really had the kind of magical power that allowed people to eat and drink enough without having to work, the Divine Soul Will Seeker would not have to starve for so many years. Moreover, people are not satisfied by eating and drinking, how to live better than others, how to have more abundant and solid material needs, and if they get the best needs of life.
It's all built on competition.
For example, a beautiful woman loved by men is a minority of women, after all, who should have it, and how should it be decided to be owned? Is it only a woman's will? Will a man who is not selected willingly admit defeat? What about when multiple indistinguishable men occupy a woman's heart at the same time, and when a woman cannot choose?
The result, of course, is competition, in which the wise use their means to occupy the hearts of women, and the brave defeat their opponents makes women less likely to choose. It is naturally difficult for those who are not wise and brave to win from the competition.
Moon worship believes that there are too many poor people who suffer from hunger and cold, so they think that as long as everyone does not worry about food and clothing, the world can be peaceful. In her opinion, this understanding is too shallow and too ignorant. It's just that it makes it harder for her to understand the reason why Bu Jingxian is fanatical about the will of the gods.
Bai Yue didn't believe that Bu Jingxian's understanding of the world was so shallow, and would rather believe that Bu Jingxian had been deceiving everyone, in order to perfectly use the power of the group of Divine Soul Will Seekers to achieve the great cause of unification. Such a reason would be more acceptable to the moon worship.
All for the sake of unification, she regarded herself as a princess who pretended to be virtuous, humble, and tolerant.
Zhou Du.
The night was overcast, shrouded over the sky of Beiyin City.
Occasionally, muffled thunder sounded, breaking the dark silence.
In the palace of Beiyin City, the atmosphere was heavier and more oppressive than the sky outside.
Ao Pan frowned, his face calm, he had been pondering for a long time, but he had not yet made a decision.
Empress Zhou was looked at by a circle of former ministers of the Zhou Dynasty with expectation, pondered for a moment, and finally urged Zhou Tianzi to say, "Your Majesty, although Princess Bai has some authoritarian power, but Your Majesty is still compliant. It's just that the left bank of the Northern Monarch is too high-flying, and the concubine Guanzhi also thinks that he must have bad intentions, at this moment the soldiers and horses of the Zhou State are in the old capital, and there are many civil and military generals who are loyal to His Majesty to help with all their might. It is rare that there are people in the Xia Sect who are willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, as long as His Majesty moves the old capital and informs the whole city, he will definitely be able to take hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command. From now on, he will get rid of the jackal-like Beijun, and he will no longer have to be oppressed by him, if he misses today, I am afraid it will be difficult to have such a good opportunity. ”
Ao Pan stood up and paced back and forth in the room.
He knew that many people in the Sunset Clan could not accept the immortal spirit, and had had an unpleasant affair with the moon worship because of this. Now there are people from the Sunset tribe who take the initiative to take refuge, and it is not unreasonable. The equality that the Divine Soul Army pays attention to is only for the poor to be happy for a while, such as those of the Sunset Sect, who can be described as the founding heroes and high-ranking people, how can they accept it?
If he moves to the old capital, he is indeed expected to master the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses now stationed in the old capital to guard against the Zheng army, and his ambitions will have hope of being realized. Zheng Guo was afraid of the strength of the Divine Soul Army, and at that time he would definitely be willing to form an alliance with the Zhou State to jointly deal with the Divine Soul Army. Even if the Divine Soul Army wants to take the Zhou capital, Zheng Guo will not sit idly by.
However, Ao Pan has been in Beiyin City for a long time, and he knows that the Bai sisters are not easy to deal with, and he also knows the methods of being a frightened immortal. Feeling that he is not their opponent, Ao Pan is not afraid that he will fail and die one day, but he only feels that he knows that there is no future, and he knows that he cannot restore the glory of Zhou Guo and still struggles in vain, what is the point?
'Just to experience what it's like to be free for three or two years?'
Ao Pan's state of mind has long since changed, so it is thanks to the Bai sisters.
Bu Jingxian has spent less time in Beiyin City in recent years, and it is the Bai sisters who are really in charge of Beiyin City. Ao Pan has never been humiliated by them, and although he cannot make decisions about many major matters, he has never been embarrassed. There used to be many aspirations, but with the demise of the Wei State, with the current situation of the Yan State facing extinction, with the annexation of the Black Wolf Clan, and the demise of Korea.
He became more and more convinced of something called providence.
The once powerful Moon Clan is now withered, the seven strong are rising, and the Black Wolf Clan dominates the Northland. Now that the Black Wolf Clan has become history, the powerful Wei State has also perished in just one year, and Korea has perished even faster and more unbelievably. The ** of the ten that follows is the Yan Kingdom.
The top seven in the past are now only Zheng, Chu, Chen, and Qi.
'Even if you have the old Zhou capital, even if you can collect those hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, what can you do?'
Ao Pan thought about it, and felt that everyone's dissuasion was both selfish and childish, and too unclear about the situation. shook his head with a smile, ignored everyone's questions, and shook his hand.
"This, this, Queen, what does Your Majesty mean by this?"
Queen Zhou was also confused, thought for a while, and finally decided, "You just have to do it, Your Majesty, there is a palace to say"
When the civil and military forces of the Zhou Dynasty heard this, they all responded happily and dispersed one after another.
Empress Zhou chased Ao Pan to the harem, and when she found him in the garden, she saw him sitting alone in the gazebo, looking at the sky full of dark clouds and no stars and moons, and poured himself a drink. Hurriedly took the flask from his hand and poured him half a glass.
"What is Your Majesty thinking?"
Ao Pan glanced at her and sighed, "I'm thinking about providence." ”
"Providence?"
"Yes, providence"
Empress Zhou was inexplicable, and it was the first time she heard this word from Ao Pan's mouth.
"Isn't the present opportunity the will of Heaven? Your Majesty has gone through many hardships to wait for this opportunity, why did Your Majesty not obey the will of Heaven?"
Ao Pan couldn't help laughing, drank a cup of himself, and suddenly said in an astonishing voice, "Heaven's will is to want all branches of the Moon Clan to perish, and leave the worship system alone."
"W-Why did Your Majesty say this?"
"Don't dissuade you, I also hope that you will give up your mind, the old will not be gone, and even if you can succeed, there will be no future at all. ”
Empress Zhou was half silent. Unexpectedly, Ao Pan, who has always had great ambitions, suddenly cowered in the face of this God-given opportunity and became so unmotivated.
"Your Majesty, forgive your concubines for being rude. In life, you should have great ambitions. Especially His Majesty is today, and he should take the revitalization of Zhoudu as his lifelong ideal. What does it matter if you live and die? If you can't realize your ambition, what's the use of living a long life?"
Ao Pan shook his head with a smile.
"It doesn't matter if you live or die, but it's even more useless to do something in vain. Providence is a system of worship, not a system of Ao. Instead of being useless, it is better to sit and watch him revitalize the Moon Clan and become the lord of the world. ”
"Your Majesty has changed so that the concubines don't know each other. Queen Zhou was very disappointed and disappointed, got up and left.
Ao Pan watched her walk quietly, and suddenly felt that everything was just a blink of an eye, and many of the things she cared about in the past were really ridiculous. It is not the emperor's order, why bother to pursue the emperor's industry.
'Well, I suddenly realized today, and from now on, it is better to study the martial arts of the Moon Clan, and pay attention to whether it can achieve something, and the right should have some sustenance, and the right to pass the time in the future. ’
Empress Zhou was determined not to miss the opportunity, so she falsely passed on the will, saying that Ao Pan had nodded his head.
Just when Queen Zhou and her group rushed to the old Zhou capital by night, the worshippers on the road received a letter from the flying eagle.
"Concubine Xing, it's an urgent secret letter from the Bilian Prison Army. ”
The worshipper in the carriage woke up from his sleep, took the secret letter and read it, and immediately changed color.
"In autumn and winter, I rode a horse with the concubine to the old capital"
At the same time, in the old capital of the Zhou Kingdom, a group of people were listening to General Zuo's ghostly bragging.
"If you witnessed the majesty of General Ben's sweeping of the thirteen tribes, you must know how dangerous the situation was at that time, more than 100 planes that could shoot a thousand steps were aimed at General Ben at the same time, but General Ben didn......'t even have the idea of being afraid at that time."
