The Sacred Ding

Although Lie Wang Qin Ran was imprisoned in Heavenly Venerate in the 4th year of Jianxing 40 years, and Qin Shimin proclaimed himself emperor as Lie emperor, he insisted at that time that he would retake Yongjing from Demon Race and formally ascend the throne. There is no new Imperial Capital and no change of year number.

In the autumn of the fourth year after Lie Emperor Qin Ran proclaimed his emperor, that is, the autumn of Jianxing’s 48th year, the emperor of the Yongjing clan headed by Ji Yuanpeng was withdrawn from the south, and it was also preserved in the Xuanyuan Shangdian. The final core forces of the Lie Emperor Qin Ran finally persuaded Lie Emperor Qin Ran to set his capital in Anze and change his name to Xuanjing; at the same time, he changed the name of Longqing to the 48th year of Jianxing, which was also the first year of Longqing.

The capital of the retreating forces of Lie Emperor Qin Ran and Xuanyuan Shangdian will be located in Xuanjing City, which also means that Qin Ran, Ji Yuanpeng and the others have almost integrated the clan of the former Nanli clan into Xuanyuan Shangdian. Within the category of influence.

Although the power of Yongjing and the Imperial Family of the Qin family suffered extremely heavy losses in the devil tribulation, a dying, starved camel is still bigger than a horse, the Southern Route Army’s main Xuanyuan Shangdian withdrawing forces to the south , Still possessing more than fifty Celestial true monarchs, 4 million elite battle strength, controlling Yunling, merging and annexing the headless Nanli clan of dragons, not at all too difficult.

Of course, all this still requires Tiannanguo to exert no resistance behind it.

The reason why Tiannan Kingdom did not prevent the retreating forces of Lie Emperor Qin Ran and Xuanyuan Shangdian from annexing Nanli is because in the first autumn of Longqing, Nanzhao Three Sects formally merged into Cangyuan Sword Sect and became Cangyuan Sword Sect’s three veins inheritance, and the former Nanzhao Zhu Kingdom’s General Mansion and the newly established Nanzhao Junguo naturally became the vassal states of the Tiannan Kingdom, and their soldiers and horses were merged into the sequence of the Tiannan Kingdom’s Northern Expedition Demon Army. .

At the same time, Taiyan and other Anxi Three Sects also merged into Xuanhuangtian and became the inheritance of Xuanhuangtian to the east of the mountain range. Anxi County was also a vassal state of the Yue dynasty. Ma merged into the Eastern Crusade Demon Army sequence of the Viet Dynasty.

Qin Ran and Ji Yuanpeng may have to make concessions in order to obtain the support of Tiannan Kingdom and Yue Kingdom to annex the clan of Nanli and join the Xuanyuan Supreme Palace.

For Anxi and Nanzhao, simply relying on the barren areas of the mountain range and Dalou Mountain, as well as the 780 million displaced people, is not enough to support the subsequent war against the devil. , To join Tiannan Kingdom and Yue Kingdom, and the elite soldiers of Tiannan Kingdom and Yue Kingdom will come in to take on the main responsibility of resisting the evil catastrophe and suppressing the Bei Tomb. Perhaps it is also their best choice at this time.

After Jianxing’s 48th year in the fall, the royal demonic weapon horses south of the Wantao River were actually integrated into three arms. One was the Xuanyuan army headed by Qin Ran and Ji Yuanpeng, and one It is the Tiannan Demon Army that is headed by Crown Prince Zheng Chan of Tiannan Kingdom, and the Eastern Demon Army is headed by the Yue Dynasty Zheng Wang Liu Fen and Anxi County Kings Lu Shang, Zhao Xiaozhi and the others.

The aggressiveness of Demon Race was frustrated by the Beiling Army, but there was no concept of establishing a line of defense. The demonic weapon Demon General was curled up in Wuhouling, Yinhunling, Dongting Mountain and other places, apart from this, everywhere All are voids.

The Xuanyuan Army, the Tiannan Demon Army and the Eastern Demon Army of the Yue Dynasty have not yet had the courage to directly attack the Yinhunling and Dongting Mountains where the main force of Demon Race is entrenched, but they pass through these gaps. Through it, separate the elite battle strength of small stocks and infiltrate Zhongzhou, which was slaughtered by the Demon Race and became the Demon Domain after being occupied by billions of miscellaneous monsters, to clean up the miscellaneous monsters and sweep the demon-raising land. of.

During this process, both Xuanjing, Tiannan and Yue, all began to make large-scale casting of heavenly weapons into the army.

The Great Sect of the Star Heng Domain has an in-depth study of the Mechanical Puppet Technique. It is based on the prohibition of the heavenly mechanism and integrates the theory of the heavenly mechanism of the Mechanical Puppet Technique. Sword Sect, Xuanhuangtian, or even the lower-level sect world sect does not have a threshold that cannot be crossed.

In addition, the Xuanyuan Supreme Palace was crippled. The area that can be controlled is limited to the Yunling area, which is relatively small and barren. However, Yue Kingdom and Tiannan Kingdom control the hundreds of thousands. The vast land and one or two billion ordinary people have much more resources than the rich and wealthy Beiling who has been tragically consumed in the tribulation for more than ten 20 years. The scale of the Refiner Master within the sect clan is also extremely large.

Xuanjing is also that’s all. Once the Yue Kingdom and Tiannan Kingdom decide to make every effort to develop the celestial weapon, the potential that has erupted cannot be ignored.

Starting from the fall and winter of the first year of Longqing, the Tiannan Demon Army and the Eastern Demon Army have added hundreds of thousands of weapons, one day more than one day.

Especially the small groups of elite soldiers and horses that infiltrate the Demon Race control area. From the autumn and winter of the first year of Longqing, they gradually formed a combat mode centered on celestial weapons to sweep away the miscellaneous monsters and increase their field combat capabilities. .

First, the light and heavy heavenly war chariot, wheeled, tracked truck, wind-flame airship, iron armored battleship, heavy-bore crossbow, heavy-bore gun, six-bore heavy crossbow, etc. have been proven by the Beiling Army The effective celestial war weapon appeared on a large scale in the Tiannan Demon Army and the Eastern Demon Army. In the autumn of the fourth year of Longqing, the Tiannan Kingdom and the Yue Kingdom also installed the Qinglian Firecrackers in the army for imperial use. Magic war.

This kind of Qinglian Firearms is the upgraded version of Qinglian Fire Arrows and Heavy Bore Cannons (Super Heavy Bore Crossbow), which is a cluster of hundreds of small flame heavy front arrows. , Concentrated in a large-size heavy arrow, fired with a special heavy-bore cannon, with a range of up to 120 li or so.

In the past, Demon Race only needed to face a powerful enemy from the Northwest Xiangbeiling Army, but with the Xuanyuan Army, the Tiannan Demon Army, and the Eastern Demon Army, more and more celestial weapons have been incorporated. , The field ability is getting stronger and stronger, Demon Race found that the pressure on the south, southwest and east is increasing.

As there are more and more blue whale-class iron-clad battleships assembled in Lingzhou and Danxiadu, I am worried that the two soldiers and horses may be completely cut by the Beiling Army through the Wantao River. In the winter of the year, all the demonic weapons in Wuhouling were withdrawn to Yinhunling on the south bank.

This actually means not only that Demon Race abandons the harassment on the eastern foot of Zibai Mountain, but also gives up control of the territory of the northern courts of hundreds of thousands.

However, because Demon Race is in the depths of Shiwei Mountain and Dajin Mountain, a large number of demon withered bone formations and demon farms are deployed. Wasteland west of Shiwei Mountain and south of Dajin Mountain is always in Under the threat of a massive attack by demonic weapon, the Beiling Army did not rely on the mountains and rivers, and it was difficult to establish a solid defense line that not one drop of water can leak out. Chen Hai did not intend to regain the entire territory of Beiting in one fell swoop.

Chen Hai finally established the East Town Army on the basis of the Fourth Front Army of the former South Town Army, with Fu Siyuan as the main general, pushing the defense line to the front line of Tianhechuan, and connecting Tianhechuan and Zibaishan Mountain Between ten thousand li, the deep Lingchuan wasteland is included in the development scope of Beiling.

Chen Hai didn’t feel threatened by the Tiannan and Yue Kingdom’s vigorous development of celestial weapons. He just seized this rare opportunity for respite and took the time to rest.

In the past three or four years, in the vast area between the Wantao River and the Nuchuan River, the threat of evil calamity was basically lifted. Not only did the refugees who fled northward return to the south bank of the Nuchuan River to rebuild their homes, Chen Hai I also took this opportunity to abolish all the Hou Kingdoms and Zonglords on the southern bank of the Nuchuan River, and set up counties and counties.

On the extra land, in addition to the large-scale entrustment of meritorious officers and soldiers, a part of the Beiting refugees who withdrew west were resettled to the south bank of the Nuchuan River to restore the area between the Nuchuan River and the Wantao River. Production.

At the same time, around Tianluo Valley, and to the south to Mozhangling, and then from Mozhangling to the front line of Pingma Mountain, a region with a depth of 230,000 li in the past ten years It has been fully developed. The people who moved from Yanzhou and those who moved west from Beiting, the population who settled on this land have also been close to 1 billion, and there are thousands of cities established.

Once upon a time, Sect Xuanxiu stood on top of innumerable living beings. When the Western Northern Domain was at its peak before the devil, it also set up more than 100 counties to govern. There were also large and small cities underneath. There are thousands of them, but these cities are mainly places where the clans of the big surnames live together. They are controlled by the clans of the big surnames and have nothing to do with ordinary people. They are even strictly prohibited from entering.

Chen Hai introduced a new county-level relationship and official selection and appointment system in Beiling. At first, it seemed not at all what was great. I couldn’t see how much help it could help the Beiling Army’s strength. It’s just that Chen Hai’s prestige is temporarily insignificant, and the power of the Beiling Army is in the hands of Chen Hai alone, so no one can stand up and raise an objection.

However, after the new relationship between counties and counties was established, the previous city was also separated from the control of the clan, and became the county, the capital, and the city of Beiling. The size of the city has further increased to more than 60,000 in the winter of the fourth year of Longqing, including more than 120 County cities, more than 2,500 government cities, and more than 50,000 county cities.

The royal capital bypasses the traditional clan relationship through the county system, and extends the tentacles of power directly to the ordinary people. The most direct benefit of this is that it makes it possible to recommend it every year in Beiling. The total number of students studying at the Tianji Academy in each county has increased to a hundred and eighty,000 that could not have been imagined before.

Of these one hundred 800,000 children, fewer than 200,000 have been trained as basic military attachés.

This has been able to meet the supplementary needs of the military attache of the Beiling Army.

More students cultivated by Tianji Academy still mainly meet other needs.

The most important bottleneck in the production of Tianji combat weapons lies in the number of craftsmen who can refine the Tianji prohibition.

In the past, the number of children that could be selected from the cold commoners was extremely limited. The refining of the heavenly ban, including the wind jet box, wind flame power box, wind flame jet box, arrow box box, etc. , Which mainly relies on the Refiner Master dísciple from the clan family, the annual output is limited, which directly limits the output of Tianji combat weapons.

After the establishment of the new relationship between counties and counties, the number of prohibited craftsmen who are capable of refining all levels of heavenly bans has increased by 35,000 every year, which is an unimaginable number before.

In the past, sect also had the so-called Mechanical Puppet Technique inheritance, but the mechanical craftsman was usually part-time by the Refiner Master, and the most commonly used place for the study of Mechanical Puppet was the tombs where the dead were buried. .

Only when the Secret Artisan is developed, can the organ craftsman truly become an important profession alongside the forbidden craftsman. The foundation of the development of celestial weapons in Yanzhou for decades has been extended to the entire Beiling area in the new relationship between counties and counties, and the number of artisans for government agencies has also increased by 70 to 80 thousand per year.

Tianji Academy also trains middle and high-level craftsmen on a large scale in the construction of city palace bridges and ore mining and smelting.

From the perspective of the past, Yanzhou is a small domain far lower than Xingheng Domain, but Yanzhou’s Tianji Puppet Technique is fully developed, three 40 years earlier than Xingheng Domain.

Chen Hai’s ability to promote the system of counties and counties in Beiling on a large scale, establish Tianji Academy on a large scale, build factories on a large scale, and develop more mines is also mainly due to this.

Yanzhou may not be a cultivation universe that can produce high-end battle strength in Dao Pill and Dao on a large scale, let alone Celestial Realm powerhouse, but in terms of the manufacture of heavenly weapons, Yanzhou The state’s potential can never be measured by ordinary eyes.

After the Battle of Jingshan, Chen Hai ordered the establishment of more than 120 Tianji Academy under the jurisdiction of Tianying Academy in the counties of Beiling. Tianji Academy served as the Libation Chancellor and the forbidden craftsman of the school. The teachers and bureau craftsmen are mainly transferred from Yanzhou.
