Chapter 7: Holy War (2)
What is jihad?
When the holy war appeared, due to the irreconcilable contradiction between the two families, instead of each secretly swords, it was better for everyone to show their swords and fight each other. Once the holy war begins, it is unstoppable.
Once the jihad begins, the families involved in the jihad can fight without any scruples. But the city is still a safe zone, and all fighting is forbidden.
The base camp of each large family is set up in the suburbs outside the city. The urban area is so big, and the second land is expensive. If the family settles down in the city, it will be expensive and limit the development of the family. There are official forces waiting in the city. There are law enforcement teams patrolling 24 hours a day. It is forbidden to kill in the city. So it's much safer in the city than outside. If a family wants to become stronger and bigger, it must establish its own stronghold, and the territory outside the city is vast. There is a lot of wasteland.
As long as you are a nobleman, you have the power to develop such land. Compared with the territory outside the city, there is basically no cost and is very cheap. Although official laws were applied to every inch of the Sancia Empire, law enforcement resources were always limited. The official tentacles can guarantee that the city is good. Therefore, annexation and counter-annexation outside the city occur from time to time, and they are not uncommon.
Opportunities and risks always coexist. The greater the risk, the greater the benefit. But there is a premise, you must live. Otherwise everything is empty talk.
So a family building a stronghold outside the city is not something you want to build. The first condition is that there is enough force to defend the stronghold.
In addition to the competition of the same kind, there is also the invasion of alien races. From time to time, the tide of beasts will come and see. If it can't be held, then several years of construction will be ruined. Therefore, the criterion for judging whether a family is a climate is whether the family has a stronghold outside the city.
Of course, the families outside the city can't fight unscrupulously, and the official turns a blind eye many times. But many families have strong backgrounds. This is because many families in small cities are family branches in larger cities.
But the holy warriors were guaranteed by the laws of the Sancia Empire. Jihad requires a series of steps. A lot of the terms are a bit harsh.
A family can only conduct one holy war in 20 years, and if it can do it every day, it will not be a mess. An empire is in the midst of internal friction every day. This is also not conducive to the stability and unity of the empire. Every family that initiates a holy war can initiate a holy war against it unconditionally, and it must be accepted.
If you want to annex others, then people will swallow them. However, in the face of absolute strength, all intrigues and tricks are floating clouds.
The first step in the holy war is to declare war on the bulletin boards in the four directions of the city, south, east, west, and north. The family that has been declared war can never accept it. Refusal also comes at a price, that is, you have to obediently give half of the family property. So if the strength is equal, there is no doubt about the fight.

"Why? I don't have the right to wage jihad?" Dexin asked.
This is the second elder who was standing beside the Great Elder, with a fluttering white beard, stepping forward and saying, "The patriarch has this right completely. But the holy war is not endless. And the Green family is not a soft persimmon, just pinch it. If he wins, he will win badly. Our people are tired, and other people are waiting for the opportunity to move, and they will reap the benefits of the fishermen. Pay for one's whistle. ”
"Second Elder, you're too worried. Now, the major families of Moonnight City have formed alliances with us and others to advance and retreat together. ”
The second elder still did not give up, and continued to persuade: "There are no eternal friends between the family, there are only eternal interests. The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. If our clan is greatly injured after a holy war. They will be as heartless as wolves, dividing me into equal parts. It would be unwise for us to work hard to make wedding dresses for them. ”
"My generation practiced the ability to sail against the current, and changed his life against the sky. Forge ahead, in order to ride the wind and waves. Conformism, hesitation, and inaction. I have good news for you. Dexin said.
"I want to hear about it. The crowd replied.
"In the past, I broke through the advanced 5th stage of the yen qi and reached the holy realm. ”
"Ahh
The Sanctuary Yuan Qi Master and the Senior Yuan Qi Master are only separated by one big stage. However, if you want to be promoted to the Holy Domain, it is a day by day. Many people can't cross that hurdle in their lifetime. And Dexin actually broke through.
The Heavenly Domain Genki Master can comprehend his own realm. Fight in your own domain. Then it will be like a fish in water. And the opponent is controlled at every turn. It can be seen how terrifying the Heavenly Domain Yuan Qi Master is.
"Patriarch, since you have broken through the Sacred Domain, then the Green family is already a dish on my clan's plate, a treasure in the bag. Why don't you take your realm to stabilize and plan. ”
"I comprehend the power of my realm. I entered the Tao by killing. The bloodier my realm is, the more complete and powerful it is. Now it is still in its embryonic form, and for so long the Green family has been my and our family's whetstone. ”
When everyone heard that Dexin had comprehended the Heavenly Domain, they were not persuading. Because none of the Grimm family had a Sacred Domain Vitality Master.
......
Hall of the Law of the Green Family. Diff knelt beside Harvey.
"Rebel. If you don't learn, you just go to learn from other people's children. I've lost the face of my Green family. Harvey said angrily, "According to the family law, you will be punished with 10 lashes. ”
"Ma'am, ma'am...... You can't go in. The patriarch has commanded. "Even a guard stopped Alice as she tried to rush in.
Alice hurried over: "Get out of the way." What Harvey, you dare to touch my son's cold hair. I'm not done with you. As he spoke, he rushed inside.
The two guards are not too good to obstruct it, after all, it is currently a private matter of the patriarch's family.
"You Harvey, the old lady gave birth to a son for you to die or live, and they all walked away from the ghost gate. You say 10 lashes are 10 lashes. 10. Isn't the flesh and blood blurry when the whip goes down. If you dare to beat me, I'll die for you. Alice's pungent temper came up, and no one was afraid. The one who is dancing with his teeth and claws is going to Harvey.
"If you make a mistake, you will not be punished. All of them should be treated equally, and no privileges should be pursued. "Harvey has a little headache.
"What's wrong. Things are already clear. My son didn't do anything wrong at all, it was someone else who bullied him. Don't you resist? Do you have a smile on someone's head when someone poops on your head?" What was even more Harvey's collapse was Alice's last words: "Today you kneel durian for the old lady, reflect well, and when the old lady is in a good mood, allow you to get up, you are getting up for me." With that, he picked up Div and left.
"Mother, this is not good. After all, I made a mistake. Diff said.
"My son is fine, you call it a mistake. When the sky falls, my mother will give you a top. ”
The two guards at the door wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh until they were injured internally.
"Laugh at what a laugh. Stand up for me. Harvey grimaced. How much sorrow can you have, it is just a river of spring water flowing eastward!
