Previously, he focused the main part of his plan on external expansion, and he basically didn't make much achievements internally, because he trusted the soldiers of Xiliang headquarters very much.
It is believed that the main places and important positions in Xiliang are in the hands of the Xiliang headquarters. Even if there are some flaws in the people recruited from Dagan people, it will not affect the overall situation.
So he basically didn't change much about that, but this assassination surprised him. The war machine that he thought was kept very well kept actually appeared in the hands of the enemy.
Now those war machines appear in the hands of the enemy, although the number is not very large, but if things go on like this, the other side will collect those war machines from other cities or other places where the seventh, eighth, and ninth legions are garrisoned?
The enemy put the collected war machines at a very important place on the battlefield. When they wait for the Xiliang headquarters army to rush over, what kind of end will be waiting for them?
Each of these war machines built by Xiliang soldiers can easily break the armor of Xiliang soldiers. In other words, as long as the opponent collects hundreds of war machines, they can harvest the soldiers of Xiliang headquarters on the battlefield. life.
Don't think that there are a lot of these war machines. The number of war machines owned by Desolation is probably around tens of thousands, and the number of these machines is still increasing.
The war machines eliminated in Xiliang will fall into the hands of the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Legions, who will collect about one or two war machines from one place every three months.
They can collect hundreds of them in a year. The more trust they can gain from other places, the more war machines they can obtain.
Li's internal supervision system was very low. These war machines could silently become weapons for the enemy, and on the battlefield, they could become killers of Xiliang soldiers.
Because there is basically no armor, even the strongest Templar armor in Xiliang cannot withstand the attacks of these war machines.
They are enemies with all kinds of thick armor, and they specialize in breaking all kinds of thick armor.
Therefore, Li Xiang was very worried. If the heavy armor that Xiliang headquarters is proud of encounters these war machines specially designed to break armor on the battlefield in the future, how many elite soldiers will die and how many manpower will be lost.
These are unnecessary losses that can be avoided, but it was because of his negligence, his laissez-faire, and his irresponsibility that Xiliang lost so many brave warriors.
Moreover, the death of these soldiers is likely to cause drastic changes on the battlefield. The soldiers of Xiliang headquarters on the battlefield are the backbone of the soldiers of the 7th, 8th, and 9th legions.
When they are here, they can boost the morale of the ordinary soldiers. If they are cut and fell to the ground like wheat straw, the blow to these ordinary soldiers will be huge.
Especially when a heavy infantry is responsible for capturing a place or guarding a very important area, and is attacked by these war machines, causing their mission to fail, the blow to the Xiliang soldiers will not be as severe as usual.
Therefore, Prime Minister Li is now carefully considering whether he should expand the supervision system for Xiliang officials, or create a department specifically to supervise these officials.
Otherwise, these people are really too rampant. Thanks to the early discovery this time, if they were discovered later, the consequences would be disastrous.
So Li Xiang is now personally in charge of the Acropolis. The Xiliang army is already surrounding the city. Nearly 60,000 to 70,000 troops are surrounding the city. No betrayer can escape!
People in the city were in panic. The civilians didn't know what happened at this time. They just knew that Xiliang King Li Xiangchao was assassinated by assassins sent by other forces.
They don't know the origin of those war machines or what they contain, but they can feel that the situation in the city is getting more and more depressing.
There are Xiliang soldiers patrolling back and forth everywhere. These soldiers are murderous and difficult to provoke at first sight. The gate of the city has banned entry. You can come in, but you cannot go out.
This city is like a huge ferocious beast lying on the ground, devouring everyone who walks into the city.
Especially when these civilians knew that all those officials had been arrested and imprisoned, everyone in the city began to panic. They wondered whether the arrest of those officials was related to the previous assassination.
If it is really related, can it be defined as the fact that these officials and the assassins joined forces to assassinate the King of Xiliang?
If this is really the case, everyone will feel that this matter is very big, because assassinations are not uncommon in the Eastern world, but the officials under him joined forces with outside forces to assassinate their masters.
This is no small matter!
When the Acropolis was heavily surrounded, Zhang Qingyun, who had just landed on the Tongtian River City side, couldn't wait to gallop back to the Acropolis.
He never expected that such a big thing would happen, and he never thought that the officials he personally recruited would actually take action.
Maybe those people didn't know why the assassins needed that land, but because of their greed, they handed over those very important land areas to the assassins' forces, which led to the subsequent assassinations on the streets.
As for the military department, the problem does not lie with him. He is now in charge of officials, while the 7th, 8th, and 9th Corps are just another group of people in charge.
However, there are some connections between local weapons and equipment and local officials, and there are also some problems, so these things must be solved personally when we go back, and we must go back and ask and review them in person.
"Now the Xiliang army has begun to search the whole city one by one. Those who fled before are likely to be caught. Should we deal with them in advance?"
The black figure next to Zhu Ziyi asked softly.
Zhu Ziyi looked up at the clear sky: "If we don't clean them up, are we still going to keep them and expose us?
Although the survivors are just some little shrimps, we can’t guarantee that any of them will know our information, and have those things been hidden?”
"Everything has been hidden." The black shadow said, blending into Zhu Ziyi's shadow: "Someone is coming."
Dong-dong-dong, a series of knocks on the door were heard, and rapid footsteps could be heard outside. At first glance, one could tell that this sound was the voice of soldiers from the Xiliang headquarters.
Only when they are marching in a hurry will they make such neat steps and dull sounds.
"Don't worry, it's coming!" Zhu Ziyi had a gentle smile on her face. The black voice was very low. Only she could hear it. There was no need to worry that the voice would be overheard by others.
Click.
Pulling the door latch open, Zhu Ziyi saw a group of black infantrymen running past his gate, and two soldiers walked up to the gate.
"On the order of my lord, I came here to search for the absconding assassin. I ask the owner of the house for your forgiveness."
"Everyone has the responsibility to track down the absconding assassin. You two adults, please come in with me!" Zhu Ziyi's delicate face did not attract the two Xiliang headquarters soldiers at all.
In the eyes of the Xiliang headquarters soldiers, Zhu Ziyi was no different from ordinary women, and even a little weak. If they used their words, Zhu Ziyi was much weaker than those Amazon women.
They would rather marry those Amazon women than such a delicate woman.
"How many people are there in your house? Does the ninth floor of No. 35 facing the street belong to your family?"
The soldiers from the Xiliang headquarters asked a series of questions when they entered the door. Another soldier put his hand on the handle of the knife and swung the knife at any time, while always looking around with vigilant eyes.
Li Xiang was still wearing black clothes and carrying two long swords at his waist, walking in the streets and alleys.
To him, those assassins were like candlelight in the dark night. Even if they were hidden very deeply, he could still see them at a glance.
So those people have no way to escape in front of him!
The area he is in now is where most assassins hide. Perhaps this place was once the base of these assassins and the area where these assassins lived.
Then it is very likely that there are more assassins and more enemies hidden in this place.
So Li Xiang sent heavy troops to search here first, and he even came to take a look in person.
One assassin after another was found, and some red dots quickly disappeared. They must have been killed by the assassins' accomplices themselves.
Because those fellow assassins had no intention of assassinating or being hostile to Prime Minister Li, a lot of yellow dots can be seen on Prime Minister Li's mini-map.
The red dots are disappearing at an extremely fast speed, and there are very few green dots, almost zero.
In other words, basically no one in this place belongs to Xiliang. These people are most likely agents and spies sent from the Central Plains. Of course, they may also be orthodox businessmen.
After all, it is difficult to gain the loyalty of a businessman, unless the businessman is supported by you, and after losing your support, it will collapse, fail, and disappear, so that the businessman will be completely loyal to you.
While walking, Li Xiang discovered something very interesting.
Just as two soldiers were searching the place where Zhu Ziyi was, Li Xiang walked into the gate with four personal guards. Zhu Ziyi, who was smiling at the two soldiers, had a smile on his face the moment he saw Li Xiang.
Solidified.
The dark figure hidden in Zhu Ziyi's shadow could not help but tremble, but she tried hard to control herself and hide in Zhu Ziyi's shadow.
"It seems you should know me!" Li Xiang saw Zhu Ziyi's frozen face, and this woman should have recognized his identity.
The two soldiers turned around and saw Li Xiang and saluted immediately: "Greetings, my lord!"
"Well, it's okay, you can continue the search!" Li Xiang nodded slightly in return.
Zhu Ziyi also reacted at this time, and respectfully saluted Li Xiang: "Zhu Ziyi, a common man, has met the governor!"
The title of Prime Minister Li, King of Xiliang, is the title given to him by the secular people. The real honorific title for him is to be called the Governor. This is an official position given by the Daqian Dynasty and is currently the highest position for Prime Minister Li.
Therefore, when most people address Prime Minister Li, they call him Lord Governor. Of course, some people can also call him King of Xiliang. Anyway, it depends on the individual's title.
Li Xiang nodded with a smile and looked at the shadow: "If you see me, why don't you come out and see me?"
Zhu Ziyi's heart beat violently, but years of training still kept her expression calm, and she said sternly to Shadow: "Why don't you come out to see the Governor?
How can you hide this from the governor?"
A petite black figure walked out of the shadow, dissipating the black cloth and black energy on his face, revealing a face that was comparable to Zhu Ziyi's.
"Shadow Clan, Zhu Yuan has met the Governor!"
Zhu Ziyi helped by saying: "Sir, this is a bodyguard hired by the common people to protect the common people. Because of their ignorance, they thought they could hide it from you by relying on their racial talents. Please forgive me."
The Shadow Clan is a very rare race in the Eastern world. They look similar to humans, but compared to humans, they are like elves in the night.
They have a natural racial talent, Shadow Transformation, which allows them to hide in the shadows. They can also hide in the shadow world when they are attacked, but this hiding will be noticed and beaten out by top powerhouses.
However, if you have a high level of cultivation, you can hide deeper, and you can also pull people into the shadow world. There, the people of the shadow clan are extremely powerful, and all kinds of powerful attacks are at their fingertips.
As for what kind of world the shadow world is, no one except the people of the Shadow Clan knows, because basically everyone who enters the shadow world is already dead.
Even those who are not dead are on the verge of madness, and no valid information can be obtained from them.
This race is very rare in number and is a natural assassin as well as a natural bodyguard.
Because no one knows how to assassinate and how to defend against assassination better than an assassin.
"It's really a strange clan!" Li Xiang was also attracted by this little girl from the Shadow Clan. If his strength hadn't reached the Grand Master level, he wouldn't have noticed that this girl was different, nor would he have sensed the difference between the two. There is another person hidden in Zhu Ziyi's shadow.
By the way, I checked the yard again and there was nothing wrong with it.
Li Xiang looked at Zhu Ziyi and smiled: "You are really lucky, you were able to recruit a bodyguard from the Shadow Clan."
The Shadow Tribe people will appear randomly all over the eastern world. No one knows how they appear. When they disappear, no one knows how they disappeared.
Whether you can meet the Shadow Clan people depends on one's luck. Zhu Ziyi is very beautiful, and her luck is even better.
With the protection of this Shadow Clan member, few people can harm Zhu Ziyi. After all, the strength of this Shadow Clan girl is close to the first-class level, which is already considered a master in the world.
"No need to check, there is no problem, I will go to the city lord's mansion in two days!"
After Li Xiang finished speaking, he strode out. He came here just to take a look at the little girl, and calling Zhu Ziyi to the City Lord's Mansion was just a temporary move.
