Chapter 505



505 The celestial dynasty

In a sense, the Allied forces could already be considered the victors of the war. After all, if the current situation continued, Chang ‘an fortress would be defeated without a doubt. It was only a matter of time before they achieved everything.

However, even so, the entire Alliance Army did not feel much joy from the victory. At the same time, the atmosphere in Chang ‘an fortress, which should have been very desperate, was not good, but it had not reached the point of giving up resistance.

The reason for this was, of course, because neither side could be sure of the outcome of the battle between Lu Qing and Qin Shang. They could not be sure if both of them had perished together.

The people of Qin were still thinking that if Qin Shang won, once the Emperor of great Qin returned, all the difficulties in front of them would be reversed. This was also the fundamental reason why they insisted on continuing to resist.

At the same time, the Alliance Army was also worried about this.

But the days had to go on, and the war had to go on.

Therefore, the Alliance Army continued to besiege Chang ‘an.

But at the same time, the Imperial court of Yan country also began to operate at a high speed.

In this war, the Alliance Army was undoubtedly the winner-before the Qin Empire appeared. In the Alliance Army, the Yan Kingdom was undoubtedly the leader.

There was no need to mention the entire Eastern cultivation world. The Wei Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom were already gone. Their territories were now all under the flag of the Yan Kingdom. The Qi Kingdom still existed, but the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom was also surnamed Lu.

It was true that the royal families of Jin and Liang still existed, but these two countries were saved by Yan country after they were on the verge of destruction.

Especially in the country of Liang, the capital and most of its territory were taken over by the people of Qin in a short time. In the end, it was the people of Yan who fought them back.

In the South, the Yan country accepted the surrender of the Shu country; The Chu State was relatively independent in all aspects. However, under the general trend, it was impossible for them to make any waves.

Under such circumstances, in the entire cultivation world, except for Chang ‘an, which had not been conquered, the Yan Kingdom, or the Lu family, had the final say.

After the antiquity age and before the era of the nine nations, there was a great Zhou Empire. The great Zhou Empire was clearly recorded.

It was a huge dynasty that had once unified the entire cultivation world.

The so-called nine nations were built upon the corpses of the great Zhou Empire after it collapsed.

Lu chaoxi also had a plan in his mind. He wanted to establish an order that would rule over the entire cultivation world. The Lu clan would, of course, be the ruler of this order.

This plan was, in essence, a request from his father, Lu Qing. He had known his father’s ambition a long time ago. At that time, he was still very suspicious of whether this could even be a town. After all, the era of the nine empires had lasted for such a long time. How could it be so easy to unify the nine empires?

However, at this point, there was no doubt that this matter had met the objective conditions. The only thing left was to execute it.

Although there were still hidden dangers such as Qin Shang not dying and Lu Qing being defeated, there had been no news of them for many years. In fact, many lower-level cultivators were inclined to believe that Lu Qing and Qin Shang, the two top cultivators who shocked the world, had already died in that battle.

Of course, Lu chaoxi did not believe it. He had always insisted that his father would be the one to win the battle. Therefore, the great Empire’s plan was still proceeding in an orderly manner.

It was definitely inappropriate to execute it right away.

After all, it was still a time of war, and the Alliance had to be maintained. It would have a bad influence if they replaced Jin and Liang. This might cause the Chu State, which still had its ruling power and Army in the South, to be at odds with each other. It was also very likely that some local forces of the two countries would resist.

Moreover, to establish a great empire and rule, one did not necessarily have to Annex other countries.

Lu chaoxi was considering a gentler and more effective method.

He planned to set up another Celestial Emperor Union in the celestial nation, and he would take the position of the celestial Emperor.

The immortal Emperor had the authority to rule all the territories of the nine nations. Each country could still exist, but the politics of each country needed to be arranged by the immortal Emperor. Even the replacement of the emperor’s throne needed the permission of the immortal Emperor.

Of course, even as the celestial Emperor, he couldn’t arrange everything in the world by himself. He also needed his own administrative structure.

This was the so-called Celestial Emperor conference, or celestial dynasty. The celestial dynasty’s relationship with the Imperial courts of the various countries was similar to the relationship between the central government and the local governments.

The celestial dynasty would naturally only be responsible for the celestial Emperor.

As for the Imperial courts of each country, in theory, there was a dual responsibility system. On one hand, they had to be responsible for the emperors of the various countries. On the other hand, they also had to listen to the celestial dynasty’s orders.

However, it was impossible for this two-track system to be fair.

Lu chaoxi would not make this system fair.

Especially after the war, when the country of Yan completely crushed the other countries in terms of influence and strength, he wanted to deeply imprint this two-track system with the mark of the celestial dynasty.

The first step was to turn the emperors of the celestial kingdoms into pure heads of state, without taking on too many direct tasks. After that, they would slowly be turned into mascots, and from a system point of view, they would not be able to interfere with specific national politics.

At this point, it was almost done. In the future, he would have to see how the royal families of the various countries would react and how the system would be implemented.

If it was still okay, then he would continue like this. If that didn’t work, he could simply disband the royal families of the various countries and only retain the local governments.

Of course, this was a long-term plan. However, all of his long-term goals had to be set off from now on and pushed forward step by step.

In fact, the battle had not ended yet. While the Army was gathering at the front, the bureaucrats at the back were not idle. They had also received the corresponding orders and had begun to get busy. In fact, they were even busier than those on the front lines.

First of all, since they wanted to expand the influence of the dynasty as much as possible, it was very important to fill the Imperial courts of all the countries with people from Yan country.

Now, there was a very good opportunity.

In Jin and Liang, due to the previous war, their political systems were severely damaged. Now, their territory had basically been recovered, and the corresponding administrative system had to be rebuilt. At the same time, they would also have to take on the responsibility of supplying the front line.

At this time, they could use the excuse of helping the two countries rebuild their administrative systems and add a large number of mature Yan bureaucrats into it.

At the same time, they could also choose some local officials who were friendly to the Yan Kingdom.

In short, such a rebuilt government must be very close to the Yan Kingdom.

In addition, he could also start building the framework for the ‘celestial dynasty’.

Lu chaoxi had set up a wartime Administrative Council. In the name of war, it would manage all the affairs of the Alliance Army. Of course, most of the decision-making members were from Yan country. However, it had also absorbed the elites and experts of other countries to a certain extent, so that the nominal higher-ups of the Alliance Army would be more practical.

Of course, in essence, this was definitely still the Yan Kingdom’s decision.

During this wartime administrative meeting, Lu chaoxi had already begun to use this opportunity to directly interfere with the political management of the various countries.

For the time being, he didn’t want to provoke Chu country. However, he would interfere with Jin country, Liang country, and the surrendered Shu country.

The reason why they did not declare victory for so long was because Chang ‘an fortress had not been taken down yet and the traces of Qin Shang or Lu Qing had not been discovered. It was difficult to determine the final Victor. Other than that, it was also possible to use the special conditions during the war to establish the framework and Foundation of the celestial dynasty through temporary administration and meetings.

Doing such a thing in the name of war during a war was much more convenient than directly executing it after complete peace was achieved.

……

The war under Chang ‘an city had become more formal than content after a long time.

Everyone knew that Chang ‘an wouldn’t be taken down in a short time. Furthermore, the battle here didn’t have much influence on the overall situation.

However, the war was still in progress.

Lu chaoxi was not delaying the end of the war entirely because he wanted to build the celestial dynasty.

Therefore, the war was still going on outside Chang ‘an.

There were many formation-breaking cannons and they were firing at almost all times. From time to time, they would even organize a relatively large offensive. First, all the formation-breaking cannons would be gathered together and fired wildly. Then, a large number of high-level cultivators would lead the teams. There would even be Dharma plane cultivators who would lead the teams to attack.

Such a war would often cause the deaths of some cultivators in Chang ‘an.

This price had to be paid. Under such a strong attack, the entire protective formation had to be controlled by someone. Moreover, under such a heavy pressure, the spiritual vein had to bear most of the cost of the formation. However, the cultivators of Qin State who controlled the formation also had to bear a part of the cost. Naturally, some people would die because of this.

This kind of injury and death was usually concentrated on the middle and low level cultivators. As long as a high-level cultivator didn’t come out, he wouldn’t be finished.

Of course, the attacking side would also suffer some losses.

But that was the difference between the two sides.

This level of casualties was something that the Alliance Army could bear. Their casualties would be quickly replenished from the rear. This was especially true for low-level cultivators. In a situation where almost the entire cultivation world was present, there were as many as they wanted.

After the World lock was unlocked, the cost of training low-level cultivators was even lower than before.

Even the cost of training a foundation building cultivator was not high.

However, the same situation in Chang ‘an fortress would be a big problem.

The most important point was that they did not have enough people.

No matter how high and mighty cultivators were, and how much they viewed mortals as ants, they were, in essence, born from a group of mortals.

Even if many of the world’s locks were unlocked, the probability of mortals with spiritual roots had greatly increased. At the same time, people with five or four spiritual roots were originally very low-level talents and did not have any value in cultivating them. It was also easier for them to become cultivators and even achieve higher achievements.

But what could he do? So many of the world’s locks had been unlocked, but not all of them had been completely unlocked. In essence, it was still rare for mortals to have potential cultivators who could cultivate.

Although Chang ‘an was huge, how could it compare to the entire world outside?

Furthermore, a large amount of resources had to be supplied for the war. Those that could be kept as resources for cultivators were even rarer.

All kinds of bad situations stacked up, making it very difficult for the cultivators in Chang ‘an to replenish their losses.

Although it wasn’t to the point where one death meant one less, it was almost the same.

This was especially true for middle to high level cultivators.

They had been fighting in such an environment for several years. For the time being, it didn’t seem to be a big problem. However, there was no doubt that as time continued to pass, they might be able to hold on for 10 or 20 years, but the Alliance Army could completely turn this kind of siege into a permanent one.

The Alliance Army could hold on for as long as they wanted, but the people of Qin, with Chang ‘an city behind them, could they hold on for another 50 years? A hundred years?

Sooner or later, he would not be able to take it.

Back to the present, this attack was also a routine.

The person leading the team was Lu Weiwen.

After the cannon fire and the concentrated bombardment of the formation-breaking cannons, the 10000-man army led by Lu mingchao launched a direct attack.

Other than her, all the cultivators formed the corresponding array. They gathered everyone’s strength and began to cast various spells against the protective array of Chang ‘an fortress.

Lu Weiwen also unleashed her own dharma body. The Platinum sword Qi, with a terrifying aura and a momentum that could cut through everything, attacked the Chang ‘an great formation.

The entire momentum looked quite fierce.

However, everyone knew that this had almost become a daily drill.

Under normal circumstances, everyone would gather and fight for almost a day and a night. When they were almost exhausted, they would naturally retreat.

In a sense, it was also a way to train cultivators by recruiting some cultivators from all over the country and conducting such a drill.

In any case, the casualty rate was very low, and it was a real battle with a large Army. It was quite good to make use of this opportunity.

Even Lu Weiwen herself thought so.

She had always been a person with a strong will to fight and a high aura. However, the problem was that she had experienced this situation too many times. Naturally, she was a little numb to it.

However, after playing for almost half a day, she suddenly felt that Yingying was a little different this time.
