Retrograde for thousands of years

Chapter 86 Follow-up
When the sky became brighter, the killings of the Nine Sects gradually subsided.

That night, Zhou Huan had been watching how the nine sects suppressed this city with a population of one million.

The Imperial Forest Army in the capital consists of the Twelve Guards, the Liubu, Jingzhao Yin and Forbidden Army, plus the guards of officials, etc., which has a combat strength of nearly 10 people.

But organization is better than disorder, not to mention that the nine major factions are all elite masters this time.

Tao soldiers who have been practicing for more than 15 years, possess internal strength, can see at night, and have strong endurance, load-bearing capacity, and explosive power. They are divided into teams of a hundred people and are combined in a battle formation. Wearing armor, no one can stop them. The masters of each major faction formed small teams to hunt down the primary targets. The complex environment in the capital made them at home.

Everything is as easy as cutting butter with a hot knife, but the things behind it are more thought-provoking.

The nine major sects gathered more than 2000 people to suppress the capital. If it were replaced by an ordinary army, it would not be possible without hundreds of thousands. And the largest capital in the world can be defeated so easily, so other cities Woolen cloth?

The world has been at peace for a long time, and the garrisons in most cities are in a state of decay. All they can do is scare ordinary people, and their number is no more than a thousand. It can be said that the nine major sects, with their elite Taoist soldiers, are enough to control and conquer any city, making it unprecedented in history. Many things in the military book have become waste paper.

"Yes, from now on, all military books will be rewritten."

Lin Xitong stood beside Zhou Huan, looking at the messy capital.

"The Taoist soldiers can easily cross the mountains and mountains, and they don't need too much logistics. They travel fast and have strong endurance. They are equivalent to the enhanced version of the heavy armored cavalry and don't care about the horses.

Such a team of 3000 people is the most elite heavy armored cavalry without any need to consider logistics. It can eat wherever it goes. The scattered towns and villages are supply points, and can flexibly use various tactics. Ordinary people's armies will be dragged down by them, and the only ones who can restrain them are the same Tao soldiers.

I once proposed to the court to organize such a team. Do you know what the final result was? "

"The formation was not successful?"

"The prime minister said two things. First, if there really is such a team, and it suddenly launches an attack after being successfully formed, how can the emperor restrain it?
Second, if high income and high treatment are used to maintain their loyalty, how to ensure that the people who enter are capable people, and not a place where the children of the rich and powerful mix their salary and seniority?Even if it is good in the first few years, it will inevitably become unsightly later on. "

"Well said, well said, Mr. Prime Minister really said well!"

Zhou Huan strongly agreed with the Prime Minister's opinion.

"No, just because he is a civil servant, he must disturb the matter."

Lin Xitong said with a cold face, "The emperor didn't listen to the prime minister's dissuasion, and ordered to try this matter first, and removed some capable personnel from the military to take charge of this matter. He became a laughing stock, and the prime minister was called far-sighted by both the government and the public.

Of course, I won't talk about the dirty tricks. Isn't it easy to stir up pornography with the skills of the prime minister and civil servants? "

"and then?"

"Later he was killed by Chen Yunying, and the Ninth Princess left a message. This person harmed the country for personal reasons and should be killed! The Ninth Princess told the emperor that some things must be done no matter what, even if they are against one's own interests, Otherwise it will be too late by the time others do it.

Today's situation is the result of the civil service system not wanting military personnel to rise to power. "

Zhou Huan was silent.

"Mr. Wang, are you sure you want to stay in the capital?"

"Well, I said I'm going to look for my girl in the capital, so be careful on the road." "You..."

Lin Xitong stared at Zhou Huan carefully for several minutes, and finally shook her head.Of course he knew the danger of Zhou Huan staying in the capital, but everyone had their own ambitions. Zhou Huan seemed very confident. If this person was really killed by the emperor, Chen Yunying could not blame anyone else.

The people of the nine major sects slowly began to retreat. They came out of the city without carrying too many things, but the team was also a lot bloated. They only received tens of millions of taels of silver from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and they had to carry hundreds of them. big car.

Zhou Huan frowned. This matter was a bit strange. The 20 troops in the Beijing camp should have received the news by now. If the people from the nine major sects don't leave quickly, why are they waiting so long?
With a slight movement in his heart, Zhou Huan walked into an alleyway.

An hour later, Zhou Huan appeared on the street again, but this time he was already dressed in Taoist attire. He looked like a seasoned Taoist about 40 years old. The human skin mask on his face was given to Zhou Huan by Chen Yunying and belonged to Aunt Tang. The gift given to her, a fine product of the Wen family, has never been used.

The order in the capital has been completely disrupted, and all forces that could threaten the nine sects have been ruthlessly suppressed. The only ones who have maintained an organized structure are the imperial guards, but they are huddled in the imperial city and dare not come out.

There were exclamations and screams from a house on the roadside. Zhou Huan frowned. The next moment, he appeared in the courtyard.

Three men who looked like gangsters were holding long knives and forcing the homeowner to reveal the whereabouts of his money. Not far away were two bloody corpses.

"Boss Lin, if you don't tell me where your money is hidden, your two remaining sons will not be safe..."

The next moment, the bodies of the three gangsters shook, and they fell softly to the ground.

"Thank you Daoist, thank you Daoist!"

The rescued homeowner looked at Zhou Huan's disappearing shadow and bowed quickly.

Tianyue Road.

This is a street in the east of the city where ordinary people live. It is now in a mess. After the nine sects retreated, snakes, rats and hooligans hiding in the darkness crawled out one after another. The changes in the capital were a disaster for ordinary people, but For these people, it is a very rare opportunity.

All order has been destroyed, and the jurisdiction without officers, soldiers, or patrols can do whatever they want. The best thing is that the troops in the imperial city will not come out for a short time. If they do this, they may not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives!
Several gangsters were walking arrogantly on the streets with their stolen goods. The next moment, Zhou Huan's body fell from the sky, and with a wave of his long sleeves, his internal force shattered their hearts!

"Listen, people in the capital. Chen Chuan, an old Taoist who has traveled around the capital, please quickly organize with your neighbors to fight against those who are taking advantage of the situation. As long as you resist for a moment, Pindao will rush to help!"

Zhou Huan's voice, blessed by his unparalleled internal power, spread like a storm to the surroundings.

"Anyone who loots in the street will be killed without mercy!"

His body was like a shadow, moving along the city. If he encountered any unevenness along the way, he would strike out with his palm.

Yes, his moves are very poor, even in the eyes of those martial arts masters, but this is not to blame Zhou Huan, his brain is only at the level of a normal person, it would take several days to learn all the radio gymnastics, if he could It would be very strange to quickly master the application of those mysterious and abnormal moves.

Fortunately, 200 years of internal strength gave him a very wide leeway in the use of zhenqi. During the few months in Beijing, he learned the technique of splitting empty palm and land flying, as well as some techniques for using zhenqi—this is like He is a person who suddenly has a net worth of tens of billions. Learning how to use money is the same. Although it is not as good as those self-made millionaires and multi-millionaires, the efficiency may not be a fraction of the other party, but they can hurt others with their own capital. Those are extremely difficult. High, Zhou Huan can easily use the inner strength that is impossible for ordinary masters.

It's like the person who killed Su Qiaoer not long ago.

As for the mastery of cold weapons exchanged by the previous system, it was the mastery of cold weapons at the level of ordinary people. It focused on things like muscles, muscles, bones, and steps. When it comes to fighting skills driven by internal force and improved after 200 years, they have undoubtedly fallen behind. , Zhou Huan has experimented with using swords and knives, but the effect is really not as good as bare hands. Those martial arts masters can dodge the swords and swords, but the attack with one palm is like a wall pressing against them. Unless they are masters, they can only suffer the hatred. And die!
