Chapter 616: What Happened Back Year
Among the four divisions of the current Holy Court, except for the Blood Division, the Ghost Division, the Hades Division, and the Ghost Division are all split from the former Dark Division.
The Yousi was established with the Kyushu Nine Guards of the Dark Division as the team, which is equivalent to inheriting the intelligence network of the Dark Division, but with a different name, it is no longer a guard, but a martial arts academy.
The underworld inherited the men and horses of the five guards of Gyeonggi, with many people and strong soldiers, which is the most capable part of the Holy Court now.
And the ghost division is based on the remaining Tiance three guards of the dark division, controlled the original dark division prison, and absorbed a large number of dark assassins, which is quite terrifying, it can be said that the current ghost division is a miniature version of the dark division of the first emperor dynasty.
In addition, the Holy Court also has a semi-military cavalry blood division that is not much different from before, as well as five huge logistics departments in charge of criminal names, training, patrols, operations, and liaison. Together, these four divisions and five divisions form a complete holy court.
Of course, like Qiu Yuan, he received a job outside, and then entrenched in a secret place to do his own thing, there are also many people, in a huge holy court, the four divisions and five departments are indeed the largest nine mountains, but not all nine, if you compare carefully, the holy court can even be split into dozens of forces, not much worse than the ghost disciples.
And the root cause of the division of the Holy Court is naturally the death of the last court lieutenant Xu Qian.
Accidental? Conspiracy?
Chen An directly flipped the file in his hand to the first year of the grand ceremony.
In this year, Emperor Jiang Jun of Zhou pacified the Quartet, banned all feudal countries, and returned local power to the central government.
It was in this year that Chen An fought in the Donghai Sea and became the first person in the whole world to break the innate limit.
It was also in this year that countless demon beasts rushed out of the East China Sea and attacked the coast of the East China Sea along with powerful demons, starting the prelude to the seven-year demon disaster.
In fact, at the beginning, although the appearance of the demon brought a devastating disaster to the coast of the East China Sea, it was not a matter of great concern for the entire Great Zhou Dynasty. Emperor Zhou was able to suppress a plague that killed hundreds of thousands of people when Chen An created, not to mention that it was just a few small fishing villages that were destroyed, and a hundred and ten people died.
Therefore, the first year of the seven-year demon plague is actually the second year of the grand ceremony.
This year, the demon appeared on land, dealing a devastating blow to the inland city. The court was terrified and sent an army to eliminate demons.
However, the demon is too strong, and it often triggers the celestial phenomena, and the forbidden army and the dark division have been disabled by several corps guards in a row, and only two demon demons with a slightly weaker body have been eliminated, which is of little significance to the whole demon disaster, and the demon disaster continues to spread to the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, and the living beings on the earth are miserable, and the people are not happy.
The powerful gate lords can only rely on the strong city to protect themselves, and this is still without being targeted by the demons, otherwise the city that is extremely strong for mortals is no different from the demons and the paper paste.
Fortunately, this tragedy did not last long.
In the second year of the seven-year demon disaster, that is, the third year of the grand ceremony, Song Shou was the first to break through the innate limit and achieve a first-class grandmaster, and at the same time, he re-emerged from the rivers and lakes and killed three demons raging in the northwest in a row, which can be regarded as sounding the horn of counterattack.
After that, several grandmaster-level figures in the inner court who had completed the nine tricks broke the innate limit one after another, achieved a product, and alleviated the trouble of demons.
At the end of this year, led by the imperial court, the grandmasters of all parties gathered together to discuss the elimination of the demon disaster, and the demon alliance was established, and finally because the imperial court had the most resources, the holy court became the leader of the alliance.
And the court lieutenant of the Holy Court, Xu Qian, who also broke through the innate limit, became the first speaker of the alliance.
With the help of the almost pervasive information channels of the Holy Court, he quickly locked down the traces of the sixty-two demons that were ravaging the entire Great Zhou Kyushu, and decided to carry out the demon punishment plan at the beginning of spring to completely remove the evil demon trouble.
It was at this time that Emperor Jiang Jun of Zhou suddenly died, and the process caught everyone off guard.
The power of the Holy Court all comes from the imperial court, and the death of Emperor Zhou gave the Holy Court a blow that is not ordinary, and all of a sudden, the power of the Holy Court has shrunk in an all-round way, and its voice in the Demon Punishment Alliance has been greatly reduced.
The originally powerful Demon Punishment Alliance almost collapsed overnight.
If it weren't for Prime Minister Li Ying's quick decision, he quickly joined forces with Xu Qian, a minister he had always looked down on, to support Jiang Hong, the eldest son of the first emperor, to succeed to the throne, and set the era name Tianxiu.
This move quickly stabilized people's hearts, prompting the Holy Court to gain a firm foothold in the Demon Punishment Alliance, and once again led everyone to fight against the gradually eroding demon plague, temporarily stabilizing the situation.
It's just that the sudden death of the first emperor made the seeds of suspicion planted.
In the seven years of the demon disaster, they had two conflicts because of this suspicion, one was the second year of Tianxiu, that is, the fourth year of the demon disaster, and the other was the first year of the concentric disaster, that is, the sixth year of the demon disaster.
These two internal strife within the Demon Punishment Alliance led to the death of a large number of masters, and the two chances that could completely solve the demon disaster were instead achieved by the demons, making their number continue to rise, and in the fourth year of the demon disaster, it broke a hundred.
Chen An looked at it like this, and at the same time, he quickly built the corresponding chronology of events in his mind.
In the second year of the festival, the demon plague began, and it began to flood on a large scale......
In the third year of the grand ceremony, Song Shou and others broke through the innate limit, and the Demon Alliance was established...... Xu Qian died......
In the first year of Tianxiu, the demon disaster had the tendency of erosion, but fortunately, at this time, someone studied the secret method of using the evil pill and medicine, which can make people break through the innate limit by taking medicine. This not only gave the Demon Alliance an opportunity to greatly increase its strength, but also made people's enthusiasm for hunting demons high, and for a while, the demon disaster had the hope of being completely solved.
In the second year of Tianxiu, because of Xu Qian's death, the strength of the Holy Court declined, and the Northwest Martial Arts Dao took advantage of the situation to become bigger in the Demon Alliance.
In the first year of Tongxin, Emperor Jiang Hongxu of Zhou, nicknamed Ling, was succeeded by the youngest son of Emperor Wai, who was only four years old, and the year name was Tongxin. This year, because of the restructuring of Prime Minister Li Ying, the strength of the Holy Court was great, although it still could not be consistent, but it began to move back to the decline of the Holy Court in the Demon Alliance, Ye Shengyan and others broke through the innate one after another, so that in the Holy Court, there were nearly forty innate grandmasters, accounting for almost two-thirds of the number of innate grandmasters in the entire Demon Alliance.
This level of development not only made the Holy Court's position in the Demon Punishment Alliance extremely stable, but also made everyone see that the demon plague had the hope of being completely resolved.
But at this time, the mutation arose again, and the Dark Division was split at this time, which made the Holy Court lose its right to speak in the Demon Punishment Alliance again, or in other words, it lost its right to speak, and became a loose organization with many orders.
Although he still has the same goal of cleaning up the demon plague, he has completely lost the momentum of destroying the withering and decaying, and the two years of Tongxin and the third year of Tongxin have driven the demon to the barren land in the northwest and the mountains and forests of southern Xinjiang in two years.
In that case, the so-called confrontation against the seven-year demon disaster is actually a bad ending.
After a general understanding of the process of the demon disaster, Chen An turned the file back to the part where Xu Qian died. In the second year of Tianxiu, Jiepeng, who was recognized as one of the strongest demons who was originally wandering in the East China Sea, suddenly appeared on Gyeonggi Road, and was encountering a secret trip out of Beijing to the northwest to appease the sluggish mood caused by the death of Song Shou in battle. As a result, the ladyboy was very red when they met, and they both died together after a tragic battle.
Chen An's gaze continued to go downward, jumping to the concentric four years behind the dossier in his hand.
This year, the demon disaster has completely passed, although there are still demons in the barren land in the northwest and the mountains and forests in southern Xinjiang, but there is no demon in the Central Plains, and people can basically live and work in peace and contentment.
But at this moment, the Northwest Wulin Dao and the local gate lords were completely out of the control of the imperial court, and they confronted the orders of the imperial court head-on, completely disrespecting the royal road.
Because the imperial court was furious, it wanted to send a large army to conquer in the fifth year of Tongxin.
The martial arts clan is not as good as the demons, they have relatives and friends, they have old friends, even if the court is just pretending, it can make these guys panic, it can be said that even if there is a local gate valve to interfere with it, it can easily conquer a small Northwest Martial Arts Road again.
But at this time, the rebellion of the ghost disciples broke out, and with the change of banners in the Southern Martial Arts Dao, different voices began to appear within the Holy Court.
Although the imperial court did its best to quickly suppress the rebellion of the ghosts, it was still powerless to save the situation in the end, until seven years later, the pattern of the entire Great Zhou world was completely defined, and the Holy Court was also split into the four divisions of the Netherworld Blood Ghosts.
There is also a small episode in this, that is, in the sixth year of Tongxin, the crown prince Taibao, the son of heaven, and the first assistant of the cabinet, Lu Guogong Li Ying, suddenly died. This old gentleman's body has always been tough, how could it be so sudden. Li Ying's death made the situation in the game look more and more confusing.
Chen An also had a headache when he saw it.
In fact, according to his opinion, this matter is also simple, that is, after the feudal domains were pacified, it entered the time of reckoning, and many people were afraid of their future, and did not know how to face the next storm.
Fortunately, at this time, the demon disaster appeared, which made the reckoning date indefinitely.
But this postponement is not completely canceled, it is still like a sharp sword hanging over everyone's heads at all times, threatening everyone, and these people are ...... It can't be said that they are in different camps, playing different roles, and they can never be connected. They just cooperated tacitly, constantly promoting the development of things, starting from the death of Emperor Jiang Jun of Zhou, every time the demon tide was about to recede, they began to make waves, and completed their ulterior secrets by making the demon disaster continue.
This kind of truth is very headache, Chen An's original intention was to identify a group of people first, and then kill them all, and there is no mistake in killing, but now it seems that there are people in all the forces involved in this matter, and it is their joint promotion that has led to today's situation. You can't kill all the people in the entire Great Zhou world.
Not to mention the question of brutality or not, he can't do it at all.
After thinking carefully for a moment, he once again focused his attention on the pile of files in front of him, and his heart was clear, his purpose was to find the murderer of Xu Qian, not to straighten out the whole thing.
So putting aside all other factors, who would want Xu Qian to die more in the second year of Tianxiu?
