Chapter 288: The Struggle for Domination (2)

"I just want to destroy the Holy Sect, any organization that overrides the imperial power will be the target of my suppression, no why, if there has to be a high-sounding reason, it is the destruction of the Holy Sect, and the tax revenue in this world will be reduced by half!" The Demon Emperor squinted at Ye Xuan, he was also very curious, what kind of ability did this young man in front of him have that could make Shen Lang find him to do things.

Ye Xuan stood up, looked at the Demon Emperor and did not retreat at all, "It's coercion by force"

The Demon Emperor nodded. "I plan to salute first and then soldier, but if the Holy Sect doesn't know how to lift, then I have no choice but to mercenaries go straight in and kill the Jian'an capital. I think that the capital city of Jian'an is much bigger than the secluded capital of the widows. A denominational organization has built a great city. Just under my nose, this is too far from the Holy Emperor's ideal concept of the world, whether it is the imperial land or the imperial city. ”

The Demon Emperor had a little madness on his face, and saw him pick up the scroll again. Said with a smile: "Look at the scholars in the world, for this power, I have studied hard for decades, you can know how many years that Holy Sect has ruled my Nanzhan Continent? After the unification of the Holy Emperor of the Great Zhou, he also led millions of troops to Jian'an to attack. "Speaking of which, the Great Zhou Demon Emperor stopped talking. It was also Ye Xuan who later learned that the original Great Zhou Holy Emperor, after unification, led his troops to attack Jian'an, the center of the Holy Sect, and was directly besieged halfway, and the millions of troops who came back were ten to two or three, and the rest were all wiped out in the middle of the road, and he had never even seen Jian'an's face, and even the Holy Emperor was almost captured, and then after the Great Zhou Holy Emperor returned to the palace, he signed a series of unequal treaties, three billion taels of silver, which have not been repaid so far! Counting 800 years, in this life, if I don't sweep away the obstacles of the empire, how can I be worthy of future generations. ”

Outside the Tianji Pavilion, the wind was howling, and for some reason, the rain that had been stagnant had accumulated strength and poured down.

Ye Xuan was silent, and the hall suddenly became silent. "But there will be a lot of demon soldiers who will die because of this, and there will be many civilians killed and injured. Ye Xuan said in a hoarse voice, with a compassionate aura in his eyes. It looks like a virgin.

The Demon Emperor looked at Ye Xuan coldly. "If the Holy Sect is immortal, the people of the world will also be oppressed by it from generation to generation! Wouldn't it be better to sacrifice the interests of one generation in exchange for the development of thousands of generations! You are so indecisive, but fortunately you are not the emperor. For the sake of the emperor's interests, most of the demon clans in the world are thinking about the future. ”

Shen Lang's eyes were full of admiration for the Demon Emperor, but Ye Xuan always felt that something was wrong, "The foundation of the future is in the present, why can't you gradually get rid of the influence of the Holy Sect? The greatest victory is the surrender of the army without a fight. ”

The Demon Emperor's eyes looked through the window at the pouring rain. "A soldier who surrenders without a fight is just a noble lie, and how many saints are there in this world? There are a few rulers with lofty ideals. I will not be willing to be subservient to others, and the Holy Sect will not be either, they have great goals, and I have the same goals. Everyone needs to rely on the strength of the vast number of demon clans to complete their goals, but they will not really take the bottom demon clan seriously, unless they encounter the catastrophe of heaven and earth and change the dynasty, as long as they sit firmly in the rule, they can taste the sweetness from it, and finally they will all break away from the masses. You are not an ordinary demon, how can you understand the sorrow of the real bottom?"

Hongrui looked at the discussion of the two, and always felt a little off-topic, and their thinking was too out-of-the-box. The brain circuits all seem to be a little out of order.

Finally, Ye Xuan sighed. "If you look at the history books, you can see that the emperor is good at drawing cakes, the Demon Emperor, you have drawn a cake for yourself to start a war, what if you fail? Have you thought about the consequences? ”

"Da Da Da" The Demon Emperor's fingertips tapped on the table. He didn't think about the consequences, he didn't even think that he would fail. "I didn't think about it, it failed, and it was a big deal to start all over again. The demon clan has never really belonged to religion, what they need is a stable regime, only the regime is the main body that guides the progress of the vast number of demon clans, and the Holy Sect will never be able to do it. Okay, it's not too early, the widow still has to read the papers, what are you doing here? Now this Shen Lang is here. ”

Ye Xuan looked at Shen Lang, "The elite in the desert has been found, and there are tens of thousands, and there are very few resources in the desert." The army inside is still there. But their supplies are not enough to get out of the desert, and they need an order from the Demon Emperor to drop supplies from Yecheng and open up a grain route in the desert. Bring them out. ”

When the Demon Emperor heard this, he just picked up the hand of the scroll and put it down again. "How many resources?"

Ye Xuan, I don't know how much grain and grass I want at this moment. But obviously a lot of it is needed, first, the people who come to transport grain need to eat, the cattle and horses that carry grain also need forage to eat, and the water in the desert also has to be transported. Otherwise, it is easy to dehydrate on a hot day. I think it will require a lot of supplies.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan said: "The resources of the three continents in the northwest are exhausted, and they can only be supervised by local famous and loyal officials. ”

The Demon Emperor frowned. "With so many resources, the officials over there may not be willing. It must touch the interests of local families. But for no reason, how can they help me?"

"Your Majesty, you can just make a holy decree, what are you worried about?" Ye Xuan was a little surprised.

"Reality, not rumors. Although I am nominally the lord of the Great Zhou, my power is only around this secluded capital, and even farther away, although it is nominally within the territory of the Great Zhou Empire, the local pastors of the states are the real masters, and they are the emperors of the soil, so every five years, a parliament will be convened to discuss the future policy. This time I need the power of the three states of Nanzhan Zhou, how can it be possible to let them do things for me for no reason, and they must think more than me, and the local family members may not support my actions, after all, these grains and grasses must be borrowed from the local government from those wealthy merchants. And tens of thousands of elites, after they come out, how to place them, they must not be used quietly and as trump cards, and after the eight hundred years of elites in the desert come out, it is not certain whether they still listen to my orders. The risk is too great. The Great Zhou Demon Emperor sat with his forehead propped up. Noticeably upset.

Shen Lang asked tentatively on the side, "Can you save it?"

The Demon Emperor waved his hand, you guys go down first, I think about it. There will be an answer in two days.
