Chapter 1 The White Waves Are Raging
Outside the window, the white waves were raging, and the rain was pouring down.
Qi Xuansu sat in the guest room, watching the tide through the glass window.
A line of snow-white tide came and went, rolling up a thousand layers of snow.
This is an observation tower located on the coast of the East China Sea, and the sea is expected to be Sendai, and the two are far away across the sea. Generally speaking, if you want to go to Sendai, you must first pass by the Kankai Tower.
Today's rain is raining, the sea is turbulent, that kind of power, even ordinary celestial beings, but also three points, after all, this is created by the power of heaven, non-human can contend with.
Guanhai Tower, as the name suggests, stands on this building to watch the sea. Although it is called a building, in fact, there are many independent cross-courtyards around the main building, and the overall area is quite large.
In all fairness, Qi Xuansu didn't like this place very much, because he always felt that the smell of fat powder here was too strong, and no matter how elaborate the decoration and artistic conception layout, he couldn't hide the somewhat pungent smell of fat powder.
The so-called "taste" does not mean the smell of the nose or the taste of the tongue, but a mysterious feeling, like a barracks of a hundred battle armies, no matter how it is cleaned and even replaced,??????????????? can't erase the smell of killing and blood that seems to have soaked into the bones.
As for Wangsendai, it is famous.
This high platform is built on a hundred zhang reef in an isolated sea, not so much a reef, but a lone peak in the sea, the whole body is like a pillar, the peak is only ten zhang square circle, there was an immortal sword to flatten it, become a flat ground, and someone lays the floor tiles on it, builds a railing, makes it a lookout, but the lonely peak is steep, vertical on all sides, there is no road up the mountain, want to go up, you have to rely on your own ability, you can go up to this place, how can you care about climbing high and watching the scenery, so here often becomes the place where you fight the sword.
Back then, Xuan Sheng and the Eastern Emperor used to fight swords here.
Qi Xuansu naturally prefers to look at Xiantai, in the words of the Eastern Emperor, no sky, no ground, no shelter, look up to see the sky, under the feet but the abbot's land, the slightest carelessness will fall into the blue waves, wind and rain can come, the scorching sun can be sunburned, winter snow can be covered, spring thunder can be shocked, heroic atmosphere.
Qi Xuansu really wanted to go to Wangxiantai for a tour, but because of the erosion of two hundred years of wind and waves, Wangxiantai became crumbling, and the Taiping Road was re-strengthened to protect this place, and refused to be visited, Qi Xuansu could only regret it.
On the coast, there are many ironclad ships of the East China Sea Division docked.
Some people may ask, since there are flying boats, then why develop ironclad ships? In fact, the reason is very simple, life is less than 100, often with a thousand years of worries, now of course there is a flying boat, but what about after the "end of the law" comes? It's too late to prepare early and develop this technology, but to bask in the glory of the moment and wait until the end of the day to prepare.
Of course, Qi Xuansu would not take the ironclad ship to Fenglin Continent, it would be too slow, and the flying boat he was going to take would not arrive until around tonight.
Qizhou has completely entered a state of combat readiness, Qi Xuansu has traveled all the way, and all the wharves are full of boats, even at night, they are brightly lit and all night long.
Tens of thousands of materials were transported to Qizhou from all directions. This kind of great power is not something that any immortal can do, it is the power that millions of people have burst out, and it is the power of the Dao Gate.
The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first. This is only the grain and grass part, in addition to the vanguard team that has already gone to Fenglin Continent, the army is still behind.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu did not go together, Zhang Yuelu was still in Yujing at this time, and she would act with the army. This is the main responsibility of Tiangang Hall, and as for exterminating the cult demons, it is actually a secondary duty.
Qi Xuansu's duty this time was neither to lead the army to fight and charge, nor to be the central counselor in military affairs and strategizing. He has two main duties, which cannot be said to be closely related, but can only be said to be unrelated. The first duty is to work with other colleagues to solve the problem of internal strife in the Gosan family; The second duty is to supervise, not to let him supervise the army, but to supervise the allocation, transshipment, and storage of grain, grass, ammunition, and various materials.
Later, Qi Xuansu also figured out that the first duty was a short-term task, if even the three royal families couldn't be even, then there was no need to fight this war, wouldn't it be better to directly surrender and admit defeat. Since it is the Daomen who comes forward, it is natural that the integration of the Prime Minister will be completed soon. The second duty is a long-term task, since the end of the war, all kinds of materials will be continuously supplied, and the monitoring task has not stopped.
Logistical and ideological issues are the two key points.
Whenever a war starts, a problem must be solved, and why to fight, that is, the division is famous.
Daomen and the imperial court have made it very clear that the revenge of the tenth generation can still be avenged, when the Great Wei court listed Fenglinzhou as a country not to be levied, but the Japanese of Fenglinzhou did not do personnel, and attacked the coastal state capitals of the Central Plains, killing and wounding hundreds of thousands of people, and taking hundreds of thousands of people captive. There are also those people who have to leave their homes, and millions of people have lost countless amounts of money.
So after Daxuan established the country, he repeatedly sent troops to Fenglinzhou for revenge, and finally forced Fenglinzhou to surrender and become a de facto vassal. It's just that because of some concerns, the title of Emperor Fenglinzhou was not deposed, and the Fenglinzhou Provincial Mansion was established, which is also proof.
This time, the local feudal lord of Fenglinzhou played the banner of "respecting the king and the road", so that the Daomen was determined to depose the honorific title of the emperor of Fenglinzhou and demote him to the level of the national lord. However, Daomen did not enter directly, and in the absence of the regent Guan Bai, the Minister of Taizheng issued an invitation on behalf of the Fenglinzhou Imperial Court, and Daomen and the Daxuan Imperial Court were invited to quell the rebellion.
Prior to this, the coastal provincial governments also held a huge public festival on the day of Shangyuan Festival to pray for the blessings of the people, officers and soldiers, and all the dead who died at the hands of the Japanese invaders. The real person in charge of the provincial government and the governor of the local government went to the incense to pay tribute to the incense, reiterating the criminal deeds of the major feudal lords of Fenglin Continent, remembering history, and not forgetting the national shame.
So morally, there is nothing wrong with that.
In a practical sense, Fenglinzhou is not a relatively mild Borneo, it is a hungry wolf that cannot be raised, violent and fierce, Mu strong and bullying, when the Central Plains is strong, it will whine and flatter, but once the Central Plains enters the weak, it will immediately bite back. So it is necessary to put a dog leash around its neck and not give it a chance to bite back.
It is better to let the war happen in Fenglinzhou than to have the war happen in the Central Plains.
In fact, Qi Xuansu had always suspected that Daomen had been preparing for such a war for a long time. According to the scene that the Celestial Master predicted in the future: the imperial crown fell to the ground, and the king's dream was broken. Forward and backward, blood-stained mountains and rivers. The sky is falling apart, and the world is new. It can be seen that after the "end of the law" really comes, there will be a big change in the Central Plains, that is, the post-Daomen era that Donghua Zhenren is worried about. It is conceivable that at this time, Feng Linzhou will definitely do something, with a small and broad, and even delusional to enter the Central Plains, rather than this, it is better to break its dog legs in advance.
Even think deeper, this may be the foreshadowing laid by Xuan Sheng for the Great Xuan Court.
Over the years, Daomen has been advocating the concept of equality, which is not only a substitute for Confucianism, but also can be understood as a kind of princely general Xiangning. It's really not convincing now, because the current princes and generals can fly to the sky, call for wind and rain, and destroy mountains and rocks, which is really superior. But after the advent of the "end of the law", there is no longer immortality, that is, the prince has no seed. Daomen has preached the concept of equality for so many years, and has already completed the ideological transformation, coupled with the accumulation of contradictions for hundreds of years, it will inevitably burst out with huge energy at that time, like a volcano erupting, blowing up crowns and Taoist crowns to the ground, shocking the dreams of the old men and the Taoist masters.
Maybe this is what the Heavenly Master said: go forward and follow, and blood stains the mountains and rivers. The sky is falling apart, and the world is new.
Qi Xuansu suddenly understood why so many people admired Xuansheng, but he didn't ??????????????? after all Limited to the world of one family and one surname, but looking at the world of people in the world, as early as two hundred years ago, he decided to sweep the emperor into the pile of old papers, even if it was at the expense of the Daomen. In other words, in Xuansheng's view, whether it is Taoism or Confucianism, they should return to their original positions and hand over the world to the people of the world.
However, Qi Xuansu does not have such a realm for the time being, he still has to pay more attention to himself, such as the problem of the three royal families.
On Qi Xuansu's desk were a lot of confidential news that had just come from Fenglin Continent.
It turned out that the three royal families were not just as simple as internal strife, but they had already been on fire, one heir was assassinated, and another inheritor was seriously injured, and the strength of the Toyotomi family was greatly damaged.
There are countless such things in the history of the Central Plains, such as the famous Eight Kings Rebellion.
Jin Que thought that the Fenglinzhou Provincial Government was guilty of dereliction of duty, and neither mediated it in time, nor reported it in time, but Jin Que did not punish the Fenglinzhou Provincial Government, from the real person in charge of the mansion to the deputy mansion masters, none of them moved, but just let them make meritorious contributions. It was probably because Daomen had long wanted to do something to Feng Linzhou, but he was suffering from the fact that his teacher was unknown, and this time the "Respect for the King" gave Daomen an excellent reason.
Qi Xuansu put down these materials about the three royal families, and picked up another brief report on the materials of Fenglin Continent, saying that it was brief, but it was still a list of various figures, dense, and if Qi Xuansu really wanted to deal with it, he had to use the "innate divine calculation".
Qi Xuansu finally leaned back in his chair, sighed, and decided to ignore these numbers for the time being, focus on the affairs of the three royal families, and elect a new regent Guan Bai as soon as possible is the top priority, as for the rest, it is all trivial.
After Qi Xuansu memorized the content of this material, he got up and came to the window and looked at the sea outside the window.
Outside, it's still white waves.
Today's Fenglinzhou is like this sea.
Qi Xuansu chanted in a low voice: "Attack the book and learn the sword geometry." Competing for extravagance. Holding a green gun like iron. Moon. Longquan three-foot chopping new grinding. can envy the army in the past, and praise Confucianism and virtue. Sisai suddenly heard wolf smoke. Ask the Confucians. Who dares to settle the storm. ”
