In the Heavens

Vol 4 Chapter 69: , The emperor is dead

"One by one in the heavens (!

In 9999 on the Great Weekly Calendar, the situation of collapse has finally turned around. With the imperial court's decentralization, the enthusiasm of local officials and aristocratic families to suppress the rebellion has skyrocketed.

The Great Zhou Empire, which had been dying by the rebels, actually gave out the Nth Spring, and the anti-kings of all walks of life were beaten to doubt their lives.

If it is a simple recap, there will be news of regaining lost ground almost every day, and the situation is very good.

It is a pity that the reality is quite the opposite. A large number of cities have been regained, which should have been a good thing, but Emperor Taichang was not at all happy.

These victories are all used to ask for merit. In summary, they ask for money, food, officials, and power.

This was accompanied by a further decline in fiscal revenue during the Great Zhou Dynasty. The local officials used the excuse of raising military expenditures to regain lost land and detained royal taxes.

As the emperor, there is nothing to say. In name, people are working for him, the emperor, and are working hard to suppress the rebellion.

The emperor does not need hungry soldiers. Suppressing the rebellion really requires money and food. At this critical moment, it is shameful to hold back.

The imperial court cannot provide enough money and food, so the magistrates can only raise funds on their own. The specific details are not important. The key is that all the money, food, and the army are in the hands of local officials, and it is inevitable that the authority of the central government will be attacked.

From the previous rebels everywhere, now the warlords are everywhere. Except for the lack of an anti-flag, the nature of Da Zhou's decline remains unchanged.

Everyone is rushing for territory, and Li Mu is not idle. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Wenxiangjiao's senior management being caught in a pot, he also took advantage of the opportunity to occupy the five southwestern counties of Liangzhou.

Of course, it is still in the name of regaining lost ground for the court. After looting the site, he did not even forget to ask the court to send more officials, which is a model of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

Such hard work is not without benefits. I don’t know if Emperor Taichang’s brain was broken, or simply for the sake of power checks and balances, he even gave him the appointment of an official of the Liangzhou section.

Power and state animal husbandry are highly overlapped, and such wonderful appointments are still common in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In some states, officials such as Jiedu, Pleasure, Governor, and State Shepherd even appeared at the same time. Each has the right to make arbitrary decisions, and there is no affiliation with each other.

As long as they are disobedient, give their subordinates an independent official. It is a complaint that has caused the pastoralism in various states.

It can be said that all the officials of the imperial court are geniuses. Such a wonderful system of checks and balances of power can be imagined by them.

The effect is very obvious, eliminating the possibility of magistrates becoming bigger in a short period of time. The sequelae is that the Great Zhou Empire has become increasingly chaotic, and conflicts between officials with overlapping powers often erupt.

For example, Li Mu, after he was appointed by the court's ambassador, the six counties under his control began to play by himself, ignoring the orders of the state government.

If it weren't for the expansion speed, some of them would have been eating, and they would need to recuperate. Who is the owner of Liangzhou, really said well.

Sitting on the land of six counties, with more than 800,000 troops, the proper Liangzhou is a hegemony. If he wanted to contend for the world's hegemony, Li Mu really had a chance.

At least strategically speaking, he is at the southwestern end of the Great Zhou Empire, perfectly avoiding the disputes between China and Earth, and has time to stabilize the rear and establish a foundation.

It's just that Li Mu is not stupid, since he learned of the plan of the mighty people, he has put out his thoughts of joining the chaotic world and striving for hegemony.

To seize the land of the five counties is to cultivate resources. After the ancestors returned, the family separated tens of thousands of people to open up branches.

Not only the ordinary people, but even the Celestial Warriors have come a lot. And most of these guys are closely related to Li Mu by blood.

For example, the grandfather Taizu whom I have seen before, grandpa, grandpa, uncle, etc. who have never been masked, all ran over in groups.

It was clear that it was directed at Li Mu. Martial arts training is not all smooth sailing, although there are golden pill warriors in the family, it is too difficult to get their guidance.

Blood family affection is not a panacea. It is dozens of generations away from the ancestors, and that affection is even better than strangers.

Unless it is particularly talented, it may be taken a high look. In the eyes of the ancestors, most people are ordinary descendants.

It is useless to be optimistic, the Golden Core Warriors are either in retreat or preparing to retreat, and there is no time to teach them to practice.

Compared with the two ancestors, Li Mu, the golden pill who wandered outside, obviously had an easier opportunity to ask for advice.

In fact, as everyone expected. Li Mu's frame is much smaller, and he will set aside one day every month to teach everyone to solve their puzzles.

Of course, not everyone can listen to this lesson. Except for a few direct elders and brothers who can listen for free, the rest have to do tasks.

Thanks to the participation of these talents, Li Mu was able to take the five counties in a short time and establish the most basic political power.

It is a pity that this regime is inherently inadequate, and it is purely a family. It is impossible to support other forces, because the aristocratic family under the rule is almost wiped out, and the talents among the civilians are pitifully few.

This is not only the case under Li Mu's command, the situation faced by all the princes in the world is similar, most of them can only rely on family power, at most, use a little vassal family.

When one party is separated, the loyalty of one's own family is high, which is an advantage. Want to seize the world, this is the biggest disadvantage.

In contrast, it is the people from all walks of life who have gathered under the anti-king sect. It's a pity that these outstanding people are difficult to control, and there is no way to twist them into a single rope.

There is not much entertainment. Apart from practicing every day, Li Mu's biggest hobby now is to practice calligraphy.

These "calligraphy treasures" can also be used as magical instruments, and there is no waste at all.

Today, Li Mu also wants to drive. Anyway, they are copying poems, so just copy them.

As for whether it will affect the protagonist before writing it out, it is not his business.

He didn't show off his literary talent as a creator, that's all because of his integrity.

Early in the morning, when Li Mu had just walked out of the Gentle Township, he saw his sixth brother Li Liang hurried over.

"Thirteenth brother, the big business is not good! The eldest brother heard urgent news from the middle of Beijing, and your Majesty died last night.

Before the first emperor collapsed, he did not establish a prince. Now the situation in central Beijing is chaotic, and I am afraid that it will not be calm for a while.

North Korea is in chaos. Brother is worried that the situation in the place that has just stabilized will fall into chaos again. Let us prepare early to meet the changes. "

Emperor Taichang did not die sooner or later, but died at this point, and Li Mu didn't know how to make complaints.

Regardless of what the outside world thinks, it cannot change Emperor Taichang as a promising master. During his reign, although he was able to reverse the general trend of the Great Zhou's decline, he had at least struggled. Among the princes and hundreds of officials, there is still not low prestige.

Now Emperor Taichang suddenly disappeared, as if the mountain above everyone's head was suddenly picked off, and the local princes, warlords, and family members weren't "hi" to the sky.

Prestige is always easy to lose, but it is difficult to find it again.

When everyone's initial temptation was completed, they found that the court was powerless to do anything about them, and it was self-evident what would happen later.

But now that the throne is vacant, the various factions in Beijing will inevitably have to fight, and the hundreds of officials in the DPRK will not care about the local chaos at all.

Without following the panic, Li Mu calmly ordered: "If the order is passed on, the garrisons in various places will be ordered to start second-level combat readiness to guard against sudden attacks by the enemy.

Let the intelligence personnel watch the world price changes in Liangzhou, once there are signs of large-scale price increases, immediately report back to the headquarters. "

Anything can be faked, except the prices in the world. Although there are many warlords in Liangzhou, there are none capable of controlling prices in the whole state.

To send troops to fight, it is indispensable to raise necessities such as grain, cloth, and medicinal materials in advance. If someone sweeps the goods, the world will definitely respond.

"Yes!"

Li Liang replied almost instinctively. With the continuous widening of the cultivation gap, the relationship between the brothers has also undergone subtle changes.

Li Mu couldn't judge whether it was good or bad, and he couldn't stop it anyway. Everyone can get along well if the window paper is not punctured. Once the lid is lifted, it will be difficult to handle.

Watching Li Liang leave, Li Mu cast his sights on the beautiful woman aside. If it were not for lack of loyalty, this one would be the best military division.

"Yu Yan, the first emperor died suddenly. If you were Liang Zhoumu, what would you do at this time?"

Li Mu is really ashamed of playing with people's hearts. This kind of reasoning and guessing is left to professionals.

Without even thinking about it, Bai Yuyan blurted out after UU reading www.uukānshu.com: "Naturally, they sent troops to destroy the major warlords in the territory and brought Liangzhou into the cyst.

But I guess Zhao Tianyun would definitely not do this. Instead, he chose the most insurable, but in fact, very stupid method, first to watch the situation in the world, and then test the reaction of all parties.

Husband, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If it is done properly, we can win the entire Liangzhou before the imperial court elects the new emperor to stabilize the situation in the central government. "

Agitation, naked agitation. The state animal husbandry lacks the momentum to break the boat and naturally brings ambition and hope to everyone.

With the power in Li Mu's current hands, if he really plots Liangzhou, he can still win it with a high probability. Just after winning, then you have to think about it.
