Chapter 409 Civil strife

In Dongsheng Shenzhou, Qi State has risen, and there is more than one Qi State.

Lu Ji, the son of Jiang Taigong and the second generation king of the Qi Kingdom once named Jiang, was born from the Kunlun Mountains. Based on the "Qiankun Ten Thousand Years Jue", he established the new Qi Kingdom with Linzi as the capital and 23 counties.

Jiang Qi's old ministers who were still alive in the past, such as Guan Zhong, Yan Ying, Wu Ji, etc., came out to assist one after another, and with the support of Chan Jiao behind him, for a while, the momentum was not small.

The Tian family who once replaced Jiang Qi was not willing to be lonely. When Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, many old ministers were left behind. At this time, they also jumped out and ran to Xianyang to take back the former king Tian Jian and restore him to the king of Qi.

Because Tian Jian was the leader of the Yun Dynasty at that time, although he was just a middle-aged man, his cultivation was still extraordinary, and he surrendered voluntarily and helped Qin break the alliance of Yan, Zhao, Wei and Chu, so he was treated well by the Qin Dynasty. More than 100,000 years have passed and he is still alive and well.

Tian Jian restored the country, took Jucheng as its capital, gathered twenty-five counties, and established the Qi Dynasty. Because it was located in the south, it was called Southern Qi, and the Qi State with the surname Jiang was called Northern Qi.

In the country of Southern Qi, many of the old ministers still survived, including civil servants such as Tian Jian's uncle Prime Minister Hou Sheng, Confucian Mencius, and military generals such as Sima Rangju, Sun Wu, Tian Ji, Sun Bin, Meng Ke's disciple Kuang Zhang, etc., with extraordinary strength.

Southern Qi and Northern Qi had the hatred of destroying Sheji, so after the founding of the country, wars continued. Although Southern Qi was stronger, it was a pity that Tian Jian's qualifications were average, and Prime Minister Hou Sheng was not a great talent, and he was greedy. He entangled a group of veterans to fight for power, which made Southern Qi unable to Defeat Northern Qi.

Except for Qi, the three kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, and Wei were directly destroyed by the army, and the nobles in the country were wiped out. After more than 100,000 years, there is almost no foundation. Although there are some elders who are calling for the restoration of the country, it is a pity. It was spinning up and down, and there was no chance of getting ahead.

On the contrary, the new countries of Daxia, Dashang, and Dazhou have developed rapidly. In a short period of time, they each controlled dozens of counties and have once again established a firm foothold.

At that time, Jie, the last emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, had the talent of being a man of destiny, but he could not disobey the destiny. In the end, he became cruel and cruel, degenerated and corrupted, and ended up being exiled.

But after all, there were people above him who saw that he had repented well during his exile, so he was rescued by his family. After diligent study, he is now very extraordinary.

This time Xia Jie also returned to his country. With the support of his family, he developed rapidly. He changed his past debauchery and was quite wise and powerful.

The Great Zhou Dynasty reestablished a new kingdom under the call of Zhou Ping Wang Ji Yijiu. The civil servants included Zhou Gongdan and Zhao Gong, and the military commanders included Lei Zhenzi, Cao GUI, etc. Because there was also the shadow of Chanjiao behind him, the development was equally rapid.

And Dashang still retains a powerful force. Wen Zhong, Huang Feihu and others are talented in literature and martial arts, and with the support of Jie Jiao behind them, they are still unstoppable.

The battle in Nanzhan Buzhou also became more and more fierce. Liu Bang started the Qianlong Order after killing the White Snake. Sishui County was captured by Lu Gong and others, and he was appointed as Pei Gong and openly opposed Xiang Ji.

However, the gap in strength comparison is too big. Although the civil strife in Chu during the period created an excellent opportunity for Liu Bang, how can the human race be an opponent of the demon race and the monster race based on the strength of the human race alone? He had to retreat all the way to Bashu, relying on natural dangers to barely resist After stopping the enemy troops, he began to cultivate and recuperate.

Looking south to the 600 counties in Buzhou, Xiang Ji found a descendant of the Chu royal family to be the righteous emperor since he raised his army. He expressed that he wanted to restore the old Chu country. Under the banner of righteousness, the remaining Chu family members rushed to join him.

Although more than 100,000 years have passed and the common people have long forgotten their identity as survivors of the Chu Kingdom, they still remember the powerful families left behind by the Chu Kingdom in the past.

In such an extraordinary world, there are endless aristocratic families with strong survivability. There are many ancient families that have always stood firm. They have ubiquitous influence in the local area. In addition to extraordinary strength, they have great political appeal.

Although the Chu Kingdom may not have existed much longer than the Qin Dynasty, many royal bloodlines still flowed into the people and established aristocratic families, always thinking of recreating the glory of their ancestors.

With the support of these aristocratic families, Xiang Jui raised the banner of the Chu State, and naturally received an enthusiastic response. Wherever he went, the localities quickly settled down and submitted to the rule of the Chu State.

With the support of demons, monsters, witches and other forces, the power was extremely powerful. In a short period of time, it swept through more than a hundred counties, re-established the Chu Kingdom, and allowed Emperor Yi to make him the Overlord of Western Chu.

Naturally, those heroes who followed the Righteous Emperor to restore the country not only wanted to work for others, but also wanted to get a piece of the pie. Even if they could not break up the country like Xiang Ji, at least they should be in high positions and hold the power of the country.

But Xiang Jui has always looked down on these outsiders. In the past, when the Qin Dynasty was under great pressure, they were so docile and docile that they forgot about Chu. In the process of restoring his country, seeing that it was profitable, these people came to opportunize again, but it was just that Waving flags and cheering on the side, just wanting to share the fruits of victory is too beautiful to think about.

Therefore, after the restoration of the country, his father Fan Zeng repeatedly asked him to reward meritorious ministers, asking him to give his followers soup, official positions, wealth, secret books, and spiritual materials and rare treasures. However, Xiang Yu was hesitant and only felt that These things were earned by oneself through bloody fighting, how can one distribute them to others casually?

It is said that Xiang Yu was troubled by these people again that day. Since Xiang Yu refused to give, these people approached Yi Di, hoping to use the name of King Chu to put pressure on Xiang Ji.

Unexpectedly, when Liu Bang killed the snake, Xiang Yu was severely injured and fainted on the spot. He lost one-ninth of his soul. Not only did he fail to cultivate his true dragon destiny, but his original destiny as an emperor was broken and his luck plummeted.

At this time, his luck was at a low point. Seeing him in a coma, those who had long been dissatisfied with him took the opportunity to take action and planned to support the Righteous Emperor in seizing power.

Since Xiang Jui didn't want to share his wealth with them, there was no need to support him any more. He might as well set up another mountain to support the King of Chu.

After being a puppet for so long, Emperor Yi was already dissatisfied with Xiang Jiui's domineering behavior. At that time, Song Yi, the champion of Qingzi, was Emperor Yi's confidant and the supreme commander of the three armies. He was killed by Xiang Ji just because he did not get along with him. This is evident in his arrogance and domineering behavior. .

From then on, Emperor Yi had trouble sleeping and eating. Since Xiang Jui dared to kill the commander-in-chief of the three armies without passing through him, it can be seen that the situation has completely fallen into his hands. With his cruelty, he often killed enemy troops. , burn down the city, and wait until your banner is no longer needed, wouldn’t it mean that you will commit regicide at any time?

Emperor Yi, who had been willing to resist for a long time, naturally couldn't bear it any longer when he saw the opportunity. He hit it off with these people and began to take advantage of Xiang Jiu's coma to seize power.

It's just that Xiang Jui usually used nepotism and had many clan members in the army and court. Moreover, his own prestige in the army was not low, and he had a group of confidants to support him. He suddenly counterattacked violently, causing the country to fall into turmoil.

After Xiang Jui woke up, it was already three days later. Although he was seriously injured, when he saw the chaos in the country, he was furious like an enraged army and launched a bloody suppression. Not only did the blood of these powerful people flow into rivers, , and finally ignored Fan Zeng’s advice and even killed Emperor Yi.

Although such crude measures forcibly stabilized the situation for the time being, it also left hidden dangers that were difficult to eliminate.

The banner of Emperor Yi fell, and Xiang Yu took charge of the Chu Kingdom. His ambition was fully exposed and he lost the hearts of the people. He also offended powerful people from all over the country, causing the foundation of the country's rule to collapse. Although the territory was vast, it was like a piece of loose sand.

It was under such circumstances that Liu Bang of Sishui County raised the banner of rebellion against Chu, mourned King Huai of Chu, and crusaded against Wu Dao. He actually received a unanimous response. Rebel armies were surging all over the country, and Chu was in turmoil, with wars everywhere.
