Chapter 487: Difficult to give up power

Yun Ji's judgment of the Emperor of Chu is not that he has any flaws or defects, but that he should find out his true intentions from the myriad clues of his rule of the country, so as to deduce the various views of the Emperor of Chu on the world of Kyushu, ?en ??? .ranen`org

Yun Ji sees farther than most people, the battle between Qianchu and the unification of Kyushu is just the beginning, in the face of the intersection of the blood sun and the demon tide and the ten thousand worlds, the creatures of Kyushu need to come into contact with more bizarre worlds, Yun Ji must make all preparations for this, as much as possible to have a full understanding of other worlds, who is the enemy, who is the friend, how to communicate, whether the war is peace, all kinds of judgments must have advance judgment and countermeasures, rather than thinking about it until the end.

As a cultivator, Yun Ji is far beyond the ordinary in Shouyuan, and the Blood Sun Demon Tide decades later, if there is no accident, for the Biting Mountain lineage, the Yun Zi generation is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the disciples of the Huaizi generation have also become talents one after another, Yun Ji is sure to create a complete set of measures to deal with the Blood Sun Demon Tide, and it can also ensure that this series of measures runs under his own will.

Yun Ji is not easy to seize power, if the world is peaceful, he is naturally more willing to follow his master to cultivate in the blessed land of the cave, who is willing to take care of so many idle things? Especially the battlefield killing is dangerous, even if Yun Ji is well prepared, he does not dare to say that every battle will be won, he will try his best to avoid the risks he can not take, if he can't avoid it, he will be resolute.

But now that the world is in turmoil, the troubled times are not beneficial to practice, and there are even visitors from other worlds who are ready to move, Yun Ji is unwilling to be in such a world, so he naturally does his best to set things right.

The strategy of the emperor of Chu to build a dam and control the water was actually quite grand, not only to build a tall dam to block the river, but to build it in stages and in order after comprehensively examining the geography of the river system. It is necessary not only to achieve flood control and drainage, but also to be able to adapt to the hydrological conditions of the river, adjust the upstream and downstream water levels in a timely manner, and regard the river system as a huge whole, just like the meridians and qi veins of the human body, which cannot be isolated and blocked.

However, such a huge project needs to be supported by the power of a country, and this so-called "one country" is not a party at present, but a unified country that can control the entire territory of the river system, and only in this way can we have a complete vision to plan and dispatch materials.

In ancient times, Yu Sheng ruled the water and divided Kyushu, when the various departments were divided into one side, but there was a first sign of mixing. Nowadays, we are still facing the great task of controlling water, but we must first unify Kyushu in order to complete water control and benefit all sentient beings.

The army of the Qianzhao Dynasty was stationed twenty miles north of Rongcheng, which was already within the distance where heavy artillery could cover the bombardment, Yun Ji did not immediately send troops to attack Rongcheng, but sent people to Rongcheng to persuade him to surrender.

And as expected in advance, Wu Bian guarded the wall and cleared the wilderness, and the city was not opened, and even the envoy who persuaded him to surrender would never meet him.

Hearing the news report, Yun Ji didn't care, and ordered all the troops to camp on the spot, and the rangers scattered to prevent the Chu army from attacking the camp.

In fact, Yun Ji knew that Wu Bian, the Taishou of Shu County, would not make an attack on the camp, with Wu Bian's cautious temperament, he did not have enough certainty and backup, he would not let his subordinates die for no reason. The army of the Qianzhao Dynasty was devastated all the way, and even the Changsheng Army was completely wiped out, and the victory or defeat of this war has gradually become obvious.

......

Wu Bian has never been as troubled as he is today, and this trouble does not come from the busy government affairs, but from the persecution of colleagues.

The army of the Qianzhao Dynasty outside Rongcheng may not have expected that in Rongcheng now, if it were not for Wu Bian, who was too guarded to restrain everyone with his own reputation, I am afraid that the gate of Rongcheng would have been opened to welcome the king.

Now in Rongcheng, in addition to nearly 20,000 urgently recruited militia and a small number of officers, mainly civilian officials like Wu Bian, they cannot be expected to climb the city wall to command the defense, Wu Bian ordered the city gate to be closed tightly, to avoid the Qianchao persuasion envoys, but also did not want these colleagues to waver in their minds and take the initiative to surrender the city.

As for the cultivators who were stationed in Rongcheng in the past, not to mention those who died in the bandit rebellion, they were later dispatched to the front lines in various places because of the confrontation between Qianchu and Chu, and there were few opportunities to see each other again in the war.

Rongcheng is located in the hinterland of Chu State, and there are many defensive lines on its periphery, if the enemy army really goes deep here, then the fate of Chu State is almost over, and the status of Rongcheng is destined to not need too much garrison force.

Naturally, many officials headed by Wu Bian were also aware of this situation, so in the face of life and death, the vast majority of them chose to surrender to the Qianchao. In particular, the political and business veterans, who were a little older and familiar with government affairs, believed that the restoration of the Qianguo Dynasty was the favor of the Mandate of Heaven, and it was not necessary to rejoin the Qianchao.

The world has been falling apart for more than ten years, and the erosion of political affairs and people's livelihood is nearly a Jiazi, Wu Bian is over seventy years old, and his life experience and testimony are not many, and he has also seen too many people who have no position and integrity.

But think about it carefully, he Wu Bian himself is not such a firm and loyal figure, when the state of Chu captured Bashu, the original Shu County Taishou hanged the city gate, he and a group of government office scribes to save their lives dedicated to the Shu household registration field and acres of files, by chance in exchange for the future officialdom to achieve the road.

Therefore, if Wu Bian wants to maintain his current status, or to save his life in his old age, what he has to do is no different from surrendering to Chu back then, just open the door and sacrifice the city.

But for some reason, Wu Bian felt extremely anxious and confused, he was not in love with the power position, but in these years of governing Shu, Wu Bian has indeed exhausted his mental strength, the stability and prosperity of Shu have provided endless logistics for most of the front line of Chu State, Wu Bian really does not want to give away the results of his life's operation.

Even many people in the Chu State did not know that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to build a dam to block the river, but it was not a casual thought, but a grand cause with incomparably detailed planning and strategy. And before that, Shu Jun is too conservative to this position, he still needs to continue to control it, as for those gossips, Wu Bian has long passed the age of worrying.

With his back in the circle chair, Wu Bian was very thoughtful, he really had no way to deal with the army of the Qianchao, and as for the compromise plan, it was also empty, the army of the Qianchao arrived at Rongcheng with the aftermath of victory, and Wu Bian faced first and foremost the military might of the Qianchao, but the panicked people in the city.

Playing with the talisman given by Immortal Elder Zun Shanzi, Wu Bian suddenly remembered the mysterious cultivation master, if he could discuss with the master again at this time, maybe there would really be a turnaround.

Feeling a slight tingling pain between his fingers, Wu Bian picked up the silver-white sword-shaped talisman and looked at it, and before he could concentrate his gaze, there was a shouting noise outside, and the door slammed open, it was the old servant who had followed him for many years, and he shouted:

"Master, it's not good, the people of the Red Flower Society have come in!"
