The massacre in Izumo involved 100,000 people, and all those who actively participated in the anti-piracy alliance and were even implicated in the anti-theft alliance were killed.

There will definitely be people who have grudges and killings, but in order to show their loyalty and ability to do things, the 31st country will definitely rather kill by mistake than let go.

As the saying goes, friends of the dead are not dead and poor.

If Li Zhen blames him afterwards because of his unfavorable work, it is better to kill more, who cares how many people he kills anyway?

Li Zhen didn't know much about the situation in Izumo's country, and he didn't want to know about it, he just needed to know that this massacre could be imprinted in the hearts of everyone in the Wanxing Islands, so that no one would dare to betray in the future.

Only blood and tears can be remembered.

At the border of Izumo Province, Li Zhen and others sat leisurely in the makeshift pavilion, drinking wine and delicious food, waiting for news from ahead.

Outside the pavilion, the ghost ancestor and Tuliusun and Zheng Jiao and others were respectfully waiting.

Near evening, a three-tribulation immortal came to the pavilion, knelt on one knee, and reported: "Your Majesty, all those who participate in the anti-theft alliance will be annihilated. ”

"How many people have you killed?"

Li Zhen drank all the wine in the cup and asked softly.

"More than 100,000 people are remembered."

The other party replied.

Jiang Shang in the pavilion heard this, and his heart chuckled, he really couldn't imagine what it was like to have 100,000 people dead, so he couldn't help but feel resistant, and asked without scruples: "Really killed so many people?" ”

"I don't think it's going to be fake."

Li Zhen replied flatly.

Jiang Shang said again: "Is it necessary to kill so many people? ”

Li Zhen saw Jiang Shang's excitement and resistance, and still poured himself a glass of wine calmly, and the ghost ancestor and others outside the pavilion lowered their heads and did not dare to look inside the pavilion.

Li Zhen signaled Jiang Shangmo to be excited, and explained: "If there is no such thing as the Anti-Theft Alliance, then these 100,000 people will not die, even if there will be a rebellion in the future, there will not be such a big killing." ”

"Why do you want to kill people, and you have to kill so many people, the main reason is that the Anti-Theft Alliance has really shaken my rule in the Wanxing Islands, which is absolutely not allowed."

"If I don't be ruthless this time, will there be another organization like the Anti-Theft Alliance in the future? The answer is yes, because the countries of the Wanxing Islands are being unified by force, and in order to better govern and control in a short period of time, the power structure of the countries has not been cleansed, but only put on a rope. In this way, many people will secretly have a rebellious heart, because their rights have not been lost, and as long as the rights are still there, they will have ambitions. ”

"This anti-theft alliance is a good example."

Jiang Shang didn't seem to understand, but he could hear that Brother Zhen had to do this for a reason, and it was also for the sake of fewer deaths in the future.

"My concerns are not only in the Wanxing Islands, but also in the Nanping Region."

Li Zhen continued, as if he was explaining to Jiang Shang again, and as if he was convincing himself, showing that deep down, he also resisted so many people.

Li Zhen is a decisive person who kills, and he will never be soft when he should kill, but he rarely kills, and every time he kills someone, the other party has an unforgivable reason.

"Now the people of the Nanping Domain basically know that the Wanxing Islands are under my rule, if the matter of the Anti-Piracy Alliance is not dealt with by thunderous means and spreads to the Nanping Domain, will those countries in the Nanping Region that have been surrendered by force also have a rebellious heart?"

Li Zhen drank all the wine in the cup, stood up, looked in the direction of the imperial capital of the Izumo Kingdom, and said: "The population of the Nanping Region is one billion, and the resources and strength are several times that of the Wanxing Islands, once the same thing happens in the Nanping Region, the harm can be much greater than that of the Wanxing Islands, because that is my foundation." ”

"Killing 110,000 people in the Izumo Country is to kill the countries of the Wanxing Islands, and it is also to kill the Nanping Domain, telling them that daring to rebel is the end."

"Although I don't understand any big truths, I know that governing the country cannot be suppressed by force alone, but requires both grace and power."

Jiang Shang expressed his opinion.

When Li Zhen heard this, he smiled, and he was very surprised that Jiang Shang would have such an opinion. In his mind, Jiang Shang is still a carefree child, who eats and drinks every day without worry, plays without abating, and is happy.

"You can say the words 'grace and power', it's a great improvement!"

Li Zhen proposed: "It seems that after returning to the imperial capital, I have to hire a good teacher for you, teach you well, and I will definitely become my brother's right-hand man in the future." ”

"Pull it down!"

Jiang Shang saw Li Zhen pulling the topic to him, and suddenly had a resistant expression.

Li Zhen didn't force it, after all, this was something that Senior Jiang and Senior Wan should worry about, as long as he didn't take Jiang Shang into the ditch.

"You just said that 'grace and power are combined' is right, but Huaguo is developing too fast in my hands, and it will develop even faster in the future, so that the subordination to the state power cannot be eliminated, because it is not easy to govern a country, let them govern themselves, which will save me and the court a lot of energy, of course, it will also give rise to some trouble, there are advantages and disadvantages, but in this case, military deterrence is the best solution. Of course, these methods are temporary, and as time goes by, the imperial court will slowly infiltrate, slowly take over the affairs of the subordinate state, and assimilate them, and when the time is ripe, the statecraft can be changed. ”

Li Zhen didn't have much to do with the affairs of the imperial court, but it didn't mean that he didn't have a strategy for governing the country. Don't forget, he was the first choice for the crown prince back then, and he couldn't be a prince with his cultivation talent and strength alone, at most he would be a prince of Zhenguo.

Jiang Shang heard so much and didn't say much, and when everyone outside the pavilion heard this, they couldn't help but admire Li Zhen.

Li Zhen's work has never been as simple as it seems on the surface.

···········································

Izumo Province is thousands of miles away.

The boy sat on the back of a large sea turtle, waiting for his sister to return from the submarine canyon, thinking that he would have to wait for several days or even longer, but who would have thought that after only half a day, a white light would appear under the bottom of the sea, and then his sister flew out of the sea.

"Sister!"

The boy was very happy to see his sister, and at the same time exclaimed, "Sister got the Dragon Ball so soon?" ”

My sister looked embarrassed at this time, her eyes were full of disappointment, and it was obvious that the capture of the Dragon Ball was not going well.

My sister came to my younger brother, shook her head and said, "Don't talk about Dragon Ball, my sister has been lingering at the door, and the water palace inside has not been entered at all." ”

"What?!"

The younger brother was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Then the water palace down there is so powerful?" My sister can't get in? ”

"There are endless water demons at the gate of the Water Palace, they seem to have been eroded by something, tyrannical and crazy, my sister really can't break through their barriers, so she can only withdraw first."

My sister was very helpless, and at the same time she was a little afraid in her heart, if she didn't have a heavy treasure and broke in rashly, there would definitely be no bones left to eat.

"What then?"

The younger brother looked disappointed and said, "Otherwise, we won't go in." ”

My sister shook her head and said firmly, "I definitely have to go in, but I have to think of a way." ”

Speaking skills, my sister had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and she thought about it, but she was not sure that the other party would help.
