Heavenly Emperor of the Ten Directions

Chapter 464
Lingzhou, one of the three states in the Western Regions.Since ancient times, there have been outstanding people and wonderful things.

Ten years ago, the Five Regions underwent drastic changes, and the Saint Taoist Academy no longer dominated Lingzhou, but in exchange for absolute control over the twenty counties.

In the [-] counties of Lingzhou, the Holy Spirit Dynasty controlled by the Spirit Race controls [-] counties. For example, the Mo family of the Saint Taoist Academy and other families who betrayed the human race openly joined the Holy Spirit Dynasty and worked as a minion.

The remaining 28 counties are in endless chaos and wars, divided into four major dynasties and three major dynasties.

The three major dynasties are jointly controlled by the former three top powers and the king's family split from the Saint Taoist Academy, each occupying the land of the five counties.

The four great dynasties each occupy two counties, and their predecessors were some of the top and first-class forces in Lingzhou.

The remaining five counties were divided by forces one by one, and they were extremely chaotic.

For example, Huangwu City belongs to one of the five chaotic counties.

Xiao Zhang's goal for the time being is the chaotic five counties.

Each county has a radius of thousands of miles and has a population of billions. As long as one county is fully controlled, it is enough to establish a god dynasty.

The five chaotic counties are located in the middle of Lingzhou, and a mountain range called the Chaos Mountains by Lingzhou practitioners runs through the five counties.

The Chaotic Mountains, where there are many high mountains, tower into the sky. Although the vitality of the world is extremely abundant, it has become the base camp of bandits.

The Chaos Mountains are almost occupied by bandits. Even though there are some business routes running through the mountains, many caravans would rather take a detour because of bandits than take the shortcut of Chaos Mountains.

Xichang County, Nanyang County, Zhongxing County, Dongshan County, and Beiyuan County, except for Zhongxing County, the other four counties are respectively bordered by the Saint Taoist Temple, the Holy Spirit Dynasty, the Great Liang Dynasty, and the Daliang Dynasty.

It can be said that the chaos of the five counties is the place of the four wars.

It is precisely because of being in the place of the Fourth World War that the large and small forces in Lingzhou did not take the five chaotic counties under their command, because it is very easy to cause border disputes.

In Lingzhou, it is recognized that there are two strongest forces.

One is the Holy Spirit Temple, which occupies [-] counties in the northern part of Lingzhou, and the other is the Holy Spirit Dynasty, which occupies the western part of Lingzhou and most of the southern part of Lingzhou, and occupies [-] counties.

In addition to the Holy Spirit Taoist Temple and the Holy Spirit Dynasty, there are three major dynasties in the eastern part of Lingzhou, the Liang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty.

On the other hand, there are four god dynasties that divide the south of Lingzhou equally with the Holy Spirit Dynasty. The four god dynasties occupy eight counties in total, and each god dynasty spans two counties.

The three states in the Western Regions are Lingzhou, Youzhou and Mengzhou.

The situation in Youzhou is similar to that of Lingzhou. It is divided between the Nether Dynasty and the Samsara Dynasty, as well as the large and small dynasties and gods. Shenchao also occupies one-third of Youzhou.

Mengzhou is different. The Holy Land of Hongmeng is silent, but it firmly occupies half of Mengzhou, and the soul race occupies only one third.

The remaining one-sixth of Mengzhou was divided between large and small god dynasties.

Ten years later, the Saint Taoist Temple, which was the most popular in the Western Regions in the past, occupied the least area, which made the always proud Sword Master a little bit unbearable.

Of course, the fate of the Saint's Taoist Academy today has something to do with his soft heart.

For example, the backbones of the four great dynasties in Lingzhou are almost all royal families separated from the Saint Taoist Temple.

These royal families previously relied on the Saint Taoist Temple, and after millions of years of accumulation, their power is no less than the top forces in Lingzhou before.

Ten years ago, the five domains underwent great changes. These royal families split into the Saint Taoist Academy, joined hands with a group of top forces, and then jointly formed a dynasty.

The Juggernaut did not pursue it because of the millions of years that these kings' families had worked hard for the Saint's Daoist Academy. Otherwise, if the Juggernaut was really angry, it would be easy to slaughter and cleanse these king's families who betrayed the Saint's Daoist Academy.

However, Juggernaut did not do this, allowing them to join hands with a group of top forces, and only then did the four great dynasties rise in Lingzhou.

Because of this, after the establishment of the four dynasties, they did not deal with the Saint Taoist Academy, but joined forces with the Saint Human Taoist Academy to deal with the Holy Spirit Dynasty, which occupies sixty counties and dominates Lingzhou!

Behind the four great dynasties stood some top forces and first-class forces. Each of the dynasties had a king sitting in charge to suppress luck.

It's just that the four great dynasties each occupy two counties, and luck is not enough to elevate the dynasties to dynasties.

Therefore, the four great dynasties have set their sights on the five chaotic counties, and they are eager to get the third county. Once they control the land of the three counties, they can be promoted to a dynasty.

And the three dynasties naturally don't want Lingzhou to give birth to a fourth dynasty, and then desperately suppress the four great dynasties, and at the same time intervene in the chaos of the five counties.

As for the Holy Spirit Dynasty and Saint Taoist Academy, everyone wants to monopolize the five chaotic counties, so they also put the battlefield in the chaotic five counties.

It is precisely because of the intervention of large and small forces in Lingzhou that the chaotic five counties have become more chaotic. In fact, there are shadows of large and small forces in Lingzhou behind the major counties and counties.

The current headquarters of Shifang Tianting, Huangwu City, is located in Zhongxing County of the Five Chaos Counties.

Zhongxing County is almost occupied by Chaos Mountains. Surrounding Zhongxing County are the other four counties, and the other four counties are bordered by the four major powers of Lingzhou.

There are a total of ten counties in Zhongxing County, and Huangwu City is just one of them.

In the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion of Huangwu City, the topographical map of Zhongxing County was clearly displayed on the void light curtain.

"My lord, please see that among the ten major counties in Zhongxing County, Huangwu County is completely controlled by us. Among the other nine major counties, we can influence five counties. And the remaining four counties, It is related to the Saint Taoist Academy, the Holy Spirit Dynasty, the Great Liang Dynasty, and the Daliang Dynasty, and the masters behind the lords of the four major counties and cities are these four major forces."

During the day, Yan pointed to the void light curtain and explained to Xiao Zhang and the high-level officials of Shifang Tianting.

Looking at the sand table of Zhongxing County on the void light curtain, Xiao Zhang found it quite interesting.

Pointing at the sand table, he chuckled and said, "Look, Zhongxing County is surrounded by Chaos Mountains, the top ten counties are on the periphery of Chaos Mountains, more than [-]% of Zhongxing County is a huge plain, surrounded by Chaos Mountains, and then divided into four Big branches, these four branches are the natural boundaries of the other four counties."

On the sand table in the void light curtain, Zhongxing County is surrounded by Chaos Mountains, with a huge plain in the center, and this so-called Zhongxing Plain is the base camp of all Chaos Mountain bandits.

This plain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the chaotic mountain range naturally blocks the enemies from the outside world. As long as the chaotic mountain range is defended, it is a natural danger.

"My lord, the Zhongxing Plain has fertile soil, abundant heaven and earth energy, and the leylines gather in the center to form dragon veins. It can indeed be used as the capital of the Yun Dynasty. But it is very difficult to capture the Zhongxing Plain with tens of thousands of bandits gathered in the plain."

Jun Wushuang pointed to Zhongxing Plain and said with a sigh.

"The chaotic mountain range outside the Zhongxing Plain has ten counties. If the Zhongxing Plain is used as the capital, it will be located in the center of the ten counties. In this way, the best defense circle can be formed with the ten counties. It’s a place where dragons prosper. It’s just that with our current strength, it’s not easy to deal with these tens of thousands of bandits. Unless.” Zhu Sheng’s words were interrupted by Xiao Zhang.

"Don't even think about it. If I want to rely on the strength of the Xiao family, why should I go far away? Just inherit the land of a state controlled by the Xiao family. But I don't want to. The Xiao family wants to inherit, but definitely not now. Let me tell you something. In the end, to control the Xiao family, at least I have to wait for me to unify the Western Regions. Only then will I be eligible to inherit the power of the Xiao family. If this is the case, the Xiao family members will have nothing to say."

Xiao Zhang said in a deep voice.

"My lord, since you can't rely on the strength of the Xiao family, how are you going to deal with the tens of thousands of bandits in Zhongxing Plain?"

Asked in a deep voice during the day.

"The tens of thousands of bandits are nothing to worry about. I have my own way to deal with them, and to a certain extent, these thousands of bandits can be regarded as my strength."

Xiao Zhang seemed a little unpredictable, and when he said this, the senior officials of Shifang Heavenly Court were shocked.

They all looked at Xiao Zhang with incredible eyes. When did Xiao Zhang start planning Lingzhou?
Why don't they know this, Xiao Zhang has never told anyone this secret.

Suddenly, Man Yu seemed to think of someone.

This person is a diehard Xiao Zhang, but he almost never showed up. During the ten years since Xiao Zhang disappeared, this person must have been secretly accumulating energy.

Since Xiao Zhang refused to speak, as a courtier, he could not ask. To a certain extent, this was a necessary method for an emperor to maintain his majesty.

"Now I will give you one month. No matter what method you use, you must completely control the nine counties and the counties below the nine counties. Next, I will start assigning tasks, Bai Tianyan, Jun Wushuang, Zhusheng, Yang Jiou, Lei Ning, Wang Yijiang, Man Yu, Kunpeng, Jiao Jiutian, you and the other nine led the heavenly soldiers and generals to the nine counties, after one month, I hope to hear good news."

Xiao Zhang said in a deep voice.

Immediately, nine people from Tianyan Yan stood up.

"We take orders!"

Bai Baiyan and other nine people said in unison.

"After the founding of the country and the founding of the dynasty, Tianyan, Jun Wushuang, and the saints entered the political affairs hall as prime ministers. As for the other six, if you want to lead the legion, you have to find practitioners yourself and prepare to form the legion. I will help you deduce Dao Bing method, but it will not give you a single soldier."

Xiao Zhang said in a deep voice.

"We take orders!"

Hearing this, Yang Jiou and the other six were extremely happy.

Forming a legion and conquering the world has always been their long-cherished wish.

Immediately, Bai Baiyan and the other nine people set off to leave Huangwu City.

Huangwu City is currently under Xiao Zhang's command, absolutely foolproof, this point, the high-level officials of Shifang Tianting are fully confident.

The original masters of the four main halls of the Heavenly Court of Ten Directions, Wu Xu, the master of the Pill Hall, Ji Huo, the master of the Lingbao Hall, Jin Ming, the master of the Rune Hall, and Yang Shichen, the master of the Divine Formation Hall, were left in Huangwu City by Xiao Zhang to refine the pills and spirits with all their strength. Treasures, making runes and array disks.

After leaving Huangwu City, Bai Tianyan suddenly called Man Yu to stop.

"Commander Man, just now when the lord mentioned that there is a hidden power, your expression suddenly changed slightly. Do you know something inside?"

During the day, Yan observed carefully, which can be called subtlety.As soon as these words came out, the other seven people looked at Man Yu.

"That's right. There used to be a stranger who followed the young master. He was loyal to the young master. He is the young master's secret confidant. He has never shown up for so many years. He must be working for the young master secretly. I can only say so much."

Man Yu said in a deep voice.

"Since you said that, we all know it well, let's separate now. After one month, the lord will formally found the country and establish a dynasty."

Jun Wushuang smiled lightly.

They just know that there is such a person, as for when Xiao Zhang will tell them about this person, it depends on Xiao Zhang's will.

As a courtier, you can't pry into the emperor's privacy too much!
