Chapter 229 The Trouble of Marching the Central Plains
The south is in complete chaos, which is the last thing Li Mingyang wants to see, but now he can only pretend not to see it. The chaos in the south was not caused by him, and the chaos in the south could not be saved by himself. This situation was caused by all the southern monks, and Li Mingyang is not in the mood to be a bodhisattva who saves the suffering.
The battle outside Phoenix made all of them gain a lot. After returning to Tianren City, Li Mingyang began to arrange the cultivation of the people in the city and the development after Tianren City.
According to the suggestion of the wheel, Li Mingyang now had better go to the Central Plains to find a place to settle down, make a small territory in the Central Plains, and then gain a foothold in the Central Plains. Everyone in Tianren City is very excited about this suggestion. In fact, the current situation in the south does give them a headache, and the most important thing is the war outside Phoenix, which also makes them completely chill. They are also very clear about their own abilities.
If Li Mingyang hadn't moved out of those real ghost armies one after another, they would not have defeated so many Central Plains monks. With the continuous escalation of the war, including Gong Yangwen, it would have been difficult to play a big role in this level of war. Only when they also have the cooperation of their own battle array, the strong can There is enough space to play, otherwise you will be besieged to death.
Thinking of such a situation, almost everyone agreed to go to the Central Plains. In the end, among the strong in Tianren City, except for the Yan brothers, all the others only know the situation in the south. It can also be said that they are basically native monks in the south. However, after the situation in the south becomes more and more chilling, they naturally hope to go to the Central Plains to seek a better development.
These people are all guys who hope to pursue the peak of power and can fight in the larger battlefield of the Central Plains, which is both a challenge and an opportunity for them.
Li Mingyang looked at the Yan brothers and asked with some difficulty, "Brother Yan and Second Brother Yan, what do you think?"
Guo Yunshan all looked at the Yan brothers. The identity of the Yan brothers is not secret in Tianren City. They all know that they are from the Central Plains, and they are abandoned by the Central Plains Taihe Gate. At this time, Li Mingyang and others decided to go to the Central Plains for development, which will naturally be very ** for them.
Yan Kuo smiled faintly and said calmly, "It's okay. It's good to go to the Central Plains. The Central Plains is much better than this bullshit south."
Seeing that Yan Kuo is not hypocritical, everyone is also relieved that there is no difference between high and low status in Tianren City. When encountering things, they have always discussed a result together and then implemented it. This time, it was finally decided to enter the Central Plains, and a group of monks gathered together with great interest, regardless of their cultivation.
Luo Su Yaoyao looked at Li Mingyang and others and felt very secure. Not only her, but all the people in Jingshan City have such an idea. Since entering Tianren City, life has been completely like a fairyland for them. There are no twists and turns, no threats, no more displacement, and even many people can start practicing, which was absolutely unincarnable before.
Luo Su asked curiously, "Uncle He, Brother Li, what are they discussing?"
"Yes, the adults are discussing taking us to the Central Plains." Thinking of this, He Chaorong also looked excited.
"Go to the Central Plains?" Luo Su seemed to be lack of interest and muttered, "Will there be another war if you go to the Central Plains?"
He Chaorong was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment. After a long time, he said with a wry smile, "The adult's talent is outstanding. The small south can no longer tolerate him. Naturally, he wants to hit a higher height. All we can do is to stand firmly beside the adult and not let him down."
Luo Su nodded as if he didn't understand, turned around and walked away with the magic array. He Chaorong seemed to be watching something beautiful for a period of time, and then also turned around and walked back to urge the villagers to practice.
Regarding going to the Central Plains, the wheel only made a suggestion to Li Mingyang, and then began to fight in the hell. Because Li Mingyang was sent ghost troops to the Yangjian one after another, the troops in the wheel's hands were more or less affected, so he could only find a way to stabilize the situation first.
Before that, in Li Mingyang's view, there would be no difficulty in marching into the Central Plains. Previously, the biggest difficulty was the inability to cross Qiandao Lake and Xuanbei City, but now there is Tianren City. Although the speed of movement in the air is very slow, after Li Mingyang's promotion to the virtual spiritual realm, he can only keep Tianren City move 30 times a day. If you want to enter the Central Plains, you have to move continuously for at least a year. But at least it can be done that a year is not a problem for anyone in Tianren City.
So after the biggest difficulty in entering the Central Plains was solved, Li Mingyang naturally thought that it was impossible to have any other troubles. In fact, Guo Yunshan and others thought so, but the Yan brothers let them know something that they had never been exposed to.
The distribution of power in the Central Plains is very complex.
Although on the surface, the Central Plains is divided into eight counties, with a total of eight princes, that is, eight forces, in fact, even the prince cannot completely control the forces in his hand.
After all, although the eight counties are large and small, they are relatively comparable to the south. Each prince's men have such a vast territory, and naturally it is impossible to be civilians in the territory. In fact, the rule of monks cannot be simply bound by law. Therefore, for this situation, the Central Plains has a very strict hierarchical differentiation. .
Strictly according to the classification, the highest level in the Central Plains is the royal family, but the royal family is relatively only a group of honors. Under the royal family, there is the prince. The prince is the prince, sitting in a county and is the largest prince in the Central Plains. Under the prince is the marquis, the marquis is the largest prince in each county, followed by the count, viscount and baron.
In fact, the Central Plains moved the aristocracy system in the secular world, but compared with some secular countries, the nobles only have honor and no real power, the nobles in the Central Plains are all real power. Even the most powerful baron must have the corresponding territory, people and army. There is no honorary aristocracy with only titles but no territory in the Central Plains. For pragmatic Central Plains, honor is bullshit. If there is no strength, there is no right to speak. Naturally, don't talk about honor.
The bosses in the Central Plains achieve the purpose of controlling their territory through such an aristocratic system. The prince only collects taxes from the marquis, and the marquis only collects taxes from the count under him. The low-level aristocrats only pay taxes to their lords and nobles, and all of them correspond step by step. This is a dead rule that everyone should abide by, but It is these dead rules that make the forces of the Central Plains so stable and so strong.
If you want to preserve your territory and title, you must manage everything well. Low-level nobles pay taxes to senior nobles, and senior nobles naturally need to protect the rights of low-level nobles.
Because of this rule, it has become the biggest problem for Li Mingyang to march into the Central Plains.
There is no honorable aristocracy, so if you want to gain a foothold in the Central Plains, you need to have your own territory, but even the territory occupied by a small baron is not so easy to grab. Perhaps with Li Mingyang's current strength, they can easily defeat any baron in the Central Plains without the help of the real ghost army, but once they take action, there will definitely be a series of chain reactions.
If the baron is beaten, the baron will ask for help from his viscount, or the viscount will sooner or later find that a small lord has been changed in his territory and will fight with the viscount again. If you defeat the viscount, there will be a count, and there will be a marquis above the count. If you defeat the marquis again, it will be good. It is simply to declare war with the prince.
Therefore, although the aristocratic system in the Central Plains seems to be rigid, it is the best way to manage. Although it is managed step by step, it seems that the whole force is disconnected, as long as there is a problem in one of them, it will be known by the people at the top level sooner or later, and it will naturally be troublesome.
Thinking of this situation, Li Mingyang and Guo Yunshan both looked at each other and never thought that it would be so troublesome to enter the Central Plains.
Li Mingyang thought for a long time and asked, "Is there any no man's land in the wilderness that no one wants to occupy. Let's go and occupy a hill. Anyway, Tianren City can be anywhere.
Yan Kuo smiled and said, "There is no ownerless land in the Central Plains, even if there are some secret places such as Longtan Tiger Cave. Even if no one dares to explore, these places are included in the territory of those lords. It is basically unrealistic to want to occupy the mountain as the king. Sooner or later, it will be discovered, and it is even less likely that there will be a chance of normal communication after discovery. They will only regard us as invaders.
Li Mingyang began to be a little irritable. What he wanted was very simple. He just wanted to have a place to stay in the Central Plains. He didn't even want to meet this small requirement. Naturally, they are not afraid of war, but if a small battle will cause more trouble, they are not willing to face it.
In fact, in fact, it is not impossible for Tianren City to float in the air all the time. As long as someone is not specifically targeting them or tracking them, it is impossible to find Tianren City flying thousands of feet high.
It's just that floating in the air is not a long-term solution after all. Whether it's ordinary people or real spiritual strong, they can never communicate with outsiders. If they don't want the whole city to go crazy in decades, they must find a place to settle down now. After the landing of Tianren City, it is just an ordinary ancient city.
"Is there no way to get a territory without fighting? We are all civilized people. Can't we make money with harmony?" After thinking about it, Li Mingyang asked helplessly.
Yan Kuo thought about it and finally nodded: "It's not without it."
