Chapter 62 I too can contend for this world!
Liu Qingfeng is a man of some ability.
Although I had learned about the general situation of Wuji and gained some knowledge of it.
But when it comes to governing the county, he basically takes it one step at a time.
After all, he had never held an official position; he was just a schoolteacher.
But those who can pass the imperial examination and become a Juren (a successful candidate in the provincial-level imperial examination) are naturally intelligent.
After Xu Tianyi's guidance, he finally had a direction to follow.
Leizhou is now in chaos, and Taikang County has just been seized by him.
Let's put aside the grander plans of rebellion for now.
The most urgent task is to stabilize public sentiment.
Under Xu Tianyi's guidance, he began to publicly try Guo Yuan and other corrupt officials. At the same time, with Xu Tianyi's assistance, he also eliminated powerful families that persecuted the people, such as the Lu family and the Bi family.
The two families held out, but were quickly wiped out by Xu Tianyi's attack.
A large number of spoiled brats, thugs, and underground gangs who persecuted ordinary people began to be arrested or killed one by one.
They also forced them to reveal many places where grain was stored.
After a busy day, the people, who had been hungry and thirsty for many days, were able to eat a relatively thick porridge the next day.
Thanks to Liu Qingfeng's propaganda, the entire city's residents were praising the benevolence of the Prince Consort and the Crown Prince.
Xu Tianyi also felt a lot of positive energy from the jade pendant.
His cultivation level, which had been stagnant for a long time, began to surge.
This also helped him figure out how to use the jade pendant.
Merit, or rather, people's hearts.
The next evening, the group, who had been busy for a long time, arrived at the county government office.
Xu Tianyi also rose to the position of head of the table through his own abilities.
Although Liu Qingfeng did most of the work.
Xu Tianyi also figured out why Liu Qingfeng had no ambition and no talent.
The main reason is that no one in the Wuji Empire ever considered changing the dynasty.
Even the Valley God Cult had to use the Crown Prince's name.
the reason is simple.
For 1,700 years, the Wuji Empire has never experienced a change of dynasty.
Unlike ancient times on Earth, which included the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties.
There is only the Wuji Empire here.
Whenever the empire was in turmoil and on the verge of collapse, a prince would raise the banner of revival and restore the Wuji Empire.
Therefore, in such a chaotic world, the Crown Prince and the King of Chu were the first choice to restore the dynasty.
King Qi was gradually abandoned.
They learned both literary and martial arts, and then sold them to the emperor.
No one could ignore Gu Qinghan's status as the eldest princess.
Because she is one of the Crown Prince's only two sons, she represents the Crown Prince in coming.
Compared to the prince, whose fate was unknown, her appearance was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the Valley God Sect.
If she wanted to, she could use this righteous cause to become the nominal controller of the Valley God Sect, transcending Yu Linglong.
After all, Yu Linglong was just playing around at the time; she stole some cultivation techniques and gave them to the Valley God Sect.
In truth, she was merely providing funding and encouragement; she didn't actually participate in any decision-making.
The things that have been done these past two days have turned out exactly as Xu Tianyi had imagined.
Originally, he envisioned himself as a chivalrous knight-errant who roamed the land with his sword, upholding justice and helping those in need.
But nowadays, to improve one's cultivation level, one needs to accumulate merit and gain the support of others.
Then one must seize power.
Based on speculation from the background story of Eternal Death.
In the end, the Crown Prince will be killed by Yu Linglong and others.
Gu Qinghan will become the new empress of the entire Wuji Empire as the eldest princess.
So, is it permissible for me to covet the throne?
Even if all else fails, you can have your son change his surname to Shen, so he'll still be considered a member of the royal family.
Ning Hongye's son is also an option, as he is of royal blood.
The more he thought about it, the more he realized the answer.
This world must be fought for.
Having two princesses as wives makes his status different.
There's also the Shen Miao family, an arms dealer family, and in the future, there will be outstanding generals like Yue Shan.
It should be noted that Yue Shan's entire family was imprisoned by Prince Qi because of Wu Chenxue's reckless actions, which led to his campaign against the Crown Prince.
Left with no other choice, Yue Shan betrayed the King of Qi and sought refuge with the Crown Prince.
Thinking deeper, even the King of Chu would eventually be killed by Yu Linglong.
I have every opportunity.
With such a wonderful start, why not seize the opportunity?
With that in mind, he spoke directly in the county government hall.
"Gentlemen, the situation in Taikang County has now been initially stabilized."
The next thing we need to do is establish a base.
After he said that, everyone was a little dumbfounded.
Liu Qingfeng asked with some surprise, "What does it mean to establish a base?"
Xu Tianyi smiled slightly: "Simply put, what we need to deal with next is an encirclement and suppression."
If the Valley God Sect were to gather in one place, the imperial army could easily send a large force to encircle and annihilate them.
However, if they disperse and enter the mountains, they can rebuild their strongholds by taking advantage of the easily defensible terrain.
Only in this way can the Valley God Sect stabilize.
Liu Qingfeng frowned: "Wouldn't that make you a bandit? Why abandon a perfectly good city and become a bandit instead?"
Xu Tianyi sighed: "It's not that simple. Do you think the Valley God Sect is very strong?"
They're nothing but a rabble.
You said that the imperial army was in disarray.
But if the imperial court is truly determined to suppress the bandits.
With cannons brought in and elite troops mobilized, I estimate that only 5,000 men will be needed to firmly suppress the 100,000-strong army of the Valley God Cult.
Bandits can never achieve anything.
To succeed, we must build high walls, store up plenty of grain, train our troops, and wait patiently for the prince's return.
The Crown Prince is currently training his troops in Twilight Valley, and plans to launch an attack after the autumn harvest this year.
It's only the beginning of March. If we are wiped out before September, how can we help the Crown Prince?
Therefore, we need to break up our forces and enter the mountains to wipe out the bandits.
On the one hand, it can be used to train soldiers, and on the other hand, it can absorb the strength of mountain bandits.
At the same time, they can establish safe, stable, and unoppressed mountain strongholds in the mountains, and have more food and supplies.
We can also establish connections with passing caravans, so that we can become like these underground gangs, taking root underground in the Wuji Empire.
If they come to suppress us, we can proceed step by step.
If they offer us amnesty, we can feign compliance.
In short, stability is far better than wandering around.
Xu Tianyi launched into a long and eloquent speech, which made Wei Qingting frown deeply.
"I will report this matter to King Qi."
Xu Tianyi said indifferently, "Since I've let you listen in, I'm not afraid of you reporting me."
To be honest, King Qi doesn't have that much energy to waste on suppressing bandits right now.
The fact that the King of Chu seized his tribute ships shows that he was already short of money and provisions.
He struggled to withstand the combined forces of the grasslands.
If we want to suppress the bandits now, we'll have to openly raise the Crown Prince's banner.
If we return to the mountains and forests, we can also help him control the floods, provide disaster relief, and assist the people in farming.
The King of Qi was overjoyed.
After all, he'll be the one collecting taxes next year.
At most, he came to attack a few times, and I used the pretext of offering him amnesty to send him some money and bow down to him.
I guess he was more concerned about the King of Chu.
Of course, that's on the condition that you don't reveal my and Qinghan's identities.
