Although his flaws are not to be concealed, it is true that this emperor of all ages, who combined profound justice and tyrannical dictatorship, was so happy with his achievements that he abused the people's power. Otherwise, he would not have fallen into the fate of the people in the world.
So his death is inevitable.
This is the general trend of the world and cannot be countered by one person's force.
Until he dies, the world will be in chaos and uprisings will continue.
As soon as he died, all the heroes in the world rose up, and the sky was lit with flames of war.
However, amidst the flames of war, a peaceful and prosperous era can truly be determined, as evidenced by Li Shimin's Zhenguan rule.
But here, the struggle for hegemony among various parties has officially begun after it became clear that Yang Guang was dead.
When the Sui Dynasty lost its deer, the whole world chased it away.
Attacking cities and competing for the world became the main theme for the next ten years.
Except for the inexplicable attitude of Song Que, the otaku head of the Song Dynasty, he still dominates the Lingnan side.
The other three great clans officially proclaimed themselves emperors, organized their armies, and competed in the Central Plains.
The Wagang Army led by Li Mi, the Luoyang Army occupied by Wang Shichong, the Jianghu Rebel Army gathered by Du Fuwei, and the garrison generals of major cities... all raised their flags to be kings.
The three sects of Buddhism, Taoism and Demons each have their own actions.
The Buddhist Cihang Jingzhai chose the true emperor and wanted to help Li Shimin ascend the throne and dominate the world.
Taoist master Ning Daoqi has an ambiguous attitude and prefers Cihang Jingzhai.
The other Taoist masters were angry at him for not fighting, so they all voted for one side.
The Demon Sect does not have the background or reputation to form an army, but it has firmly grasped the major industries related to people's livelihood and penetrated into the major forces in the world to seek wealth and rights.
At the same time, a piece of news that Yang Gong's treasure and He's Bi appeared in the world together, and that if you get one of them, you can conquer the world, it is unknown when and where it spread, and it spread all over the world like a spark of fire starting a prairie fire.
Pengzhou.
A courtyard.
Three men and one woman sit around.
Kou Zhong looked around at the people around him and said: "Master Ling, military advisor, and... Qing'er, what do you think of the current situation? Should we fight for the so-called He's Bi and Yang Gong's treasury?"
The three people sitting next to him were his good brother Xu Ziling, Xu Xingzhi, the strategist who conquered the Haisha Gang when he destroyed it, and Bai Qing'er, whom he "encountered by chance" more than two months ago.
When Bai Qing'er approached Kou Zhong, he was still fighting with the Haisha Gang. In the end, under the design of the Demon Sect, Bai Qing'er, as an undercover agent of the Haisha Gang, helped Kou Zhong destroy this gang belonging to the Haisha Gang.
The gang of local bullies gained the trust of Kou Zhong.
After that, Kou Zhong mastered part of the background of the Haisha Gang and founded the Shuanglong Gang. In several small battles in the past two months, he won consecutive battles and won over many people and righteous people, forming the future Gang.
The prototype of the world-famous Young Marshal's Army.
Xu Ziling looked at Kou Zhong who was eager to give it a try and said, "My idea is, don't argue, Mr. Zhong, don't forget your godmother's instructions when she left."
Kou Zhong recalled what happened when Fu Junma heard that Yang Guang was dead and left.
At that time, in the Central Plains, no news about Yang Gong's treasure house had been revealed, but Fu Junma was like a prophet who predicted the unknown, urging them in every possible way not to get involved in the matter of Yang Gong's treasure house.
Soon after she left, news spread in the Central Plains that if you get Yang Gong's treasure house, you can conquer the world, which made Shuanglong have to think more.
They also vaguely knew that the spread of this news must be closely related to the godmother.
Xu Xingzhi, the military advisor sitting next to Kou Zhong, also said: "My point is the same as Zi Ling's. Although the Shuanglong Gang is famous in Pengzhou, compared with the real clan and power, it is still just a small fuss. According to me,
Look, instead of fighting for those two illusory things, we might as well think about expanding our power."
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "As the military advisor said in the past, 80% of the world's wealth and power are in the hands of two people. Even the scattered people in the world who are determined to compete for the world have mostly joined Du Fuwei's world.
Rebels, we want to expand our forces and reach the point where we can compete in the world, but it is not easy."
Xu Xingzhi said with a smile: "Yes, I did say that, and if you want to use the foundation of the Shuanglong Gang to reach a level that can compete in the world, it is indeed very difficult, but there is only one way to make the Shuanglong Gang powerful
increase."
Kou Zhong's eyes lit up and he said: "The military advisor continues."
Xu Xingzhi looked around the three people and said: "That is to join other forces."
"ah?"
Kou Zhong looked bitter and said: "Don't be ridiculous, military advisor. If I hadn't been determined to fight for the world, I would have joined Du Fuwei's rebel army long ago. But just because I want to build a foundation in these troubled times, I will start from scratch."
Yes, I will gather you here."
On the other hand, Bai Qing'er on the side rolled his eyes and said: "What the military advisor means is to join other forces and then gradually replace them. Only in this way can we get a chance to compete in the world under the almost fixed pattern of the world's forces?
"
Shuanglong's eyes lit up, Xu Xingzhi nodded to Bai Qing'er with a smile, and said: "Miss Qing'er is indeed smart, yes, that's what I mean. Since it is no longer possible to temporarily form a force, why not cannibalize and annex it from within?
What about other forces?"
"The military advisor is so complimentary."
Bai Qing'er smiled lightly.
How could she not understand the meaning of Xu Xingzhi, because what she was doing at the moment was the same thing.
Help the Double Dragon Gang to expand its power, and then gradually insert the secret agents of the Demon Sect into it, step by step to encroach and control the Double Dragon Gang, and steal the fruits of victory from Kou Zhong and others.
Kou Zhong clapped his hands and praised the wonderful thing, saying: "The words of the military advisor really awakened the dreamer. Let me think about it, the power of the powerful families has been accumulated for thousands of years. It is almost impossible for us to poach their corners. In this way
Speaking of which, there are only two forces that have a chance for us to replace them."
Xu Ziling answered: "Du Fuwei's Jianghu Rebel Army, and Wang Shichong's Luoyang Army!"
Afterwards, the four of them made another round and finally chose to temporarily join Wang Shichong's Luoyang Army.
Because Du Fuwei's Jianghu rebels have a mixed population, it can be expected that each faction has hidden secrets in it, making it difficult to control them later.
As for Wang Shichong's Luoyang Army, the military discipline is much stricter than that of the Jianghu Rebels, and the internal situation is not that complicated. As long as there is a chance to gain Wang Shichong's trust, it is equivalent to gaining the trust of the Luoyang Army, and it will be much easier to replace them.
After saying that, Xu Ziling suddenly said: "Young Master Zhong, everyone in the world is spreading the news that Yang Guang died in the hands of Demon Emperor Ye Tai. Do you think this Ye Tai is the Ye Tai we know?"
Bai Qing'er's heart trembled, but her expression remained unchanged as she looked at Kou Zhong.
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "Even though Mr. Ye and his godmother made an agreement to kill Yang Guang at that time, I still don't believe that the Demon King of the Demon Sect is the one who has no power to restrain a chicken and can be chased by even a small soldier.
Mrs. Ye who is five miles away."
Xu Xingzhi was moved in his heart and asked quickly: "Why, is Master Zhong Shaoling also related to the Demon Emperor of the Demon Sect?"
Kou Zhong shook his head and said: "I don't know, because the Mrs. Ye I know is very different from the legendary Demon King. But thinking about it, I think it may be the same person. After all, he can practice the complete book of the Secret of Immortality at once.
It is unlikely that a person will remain unknown forever.
It’s just that I don’t know why he can be related to the Demon Sect. If it’s really the same person, looking back, this person is really scary.”
Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong had a spiritual connection, and instantly understood what he meant, and said, "Young Master Zhong thought he might have deliberately approached us, or even given up his martial arts in order to meet the conditions for practicing the Secret of Immortality?"
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "It is indeed possible. Didn't my godmother also say that he was once a top martial artist, but for some unknown reason, he lost all his martial arts skills? Now that I think about the bragging words he said in the past,
It's probably true."
Xu Ziling was silent for a while and said, "I just don't know what identity and attitude I will have when I meet him again."
Bai Qing'er couldn't help but ask: "What kind of person is he?"
Bai Qing'er actually knew very little about the Demon Emperor who sent her to contact the Double Dragons. She only knew that someone who could conquer the Yin Queen and kill the Demon Emperor at the slightest disagreement was very terrifying.
But no matter how many there were, Bai Qing'er didn't understand them at all, so she asked curiously.
