Ancestor Above

Chapter 442



This was evident in the Qi Army.

The Qi people were not enthusiastic enough when they needed to fight to the death. However, when most of the war could be declared as a victory and the Wu State was almost destroyed, they showed an indescribable enthusiasm.

And this enthusiasm was not in the aspect of battle, but in snatching the spoils of war.

Of course, battle achievements were still very important to them, but they were far from being the most important thing. What was the goal of obtaining battle merits? It was for profit.

After all, in the Qi state, the aristocratic families were powerful. If they wanted to be promoted in the Imperial court, it would be easy to make a contribution, but the most important thing was their background.

But now, after the collapse of the Wu State Army, the vast territory of Wu State was a direct and easy benefit to them.

Under such circumstances, the first choice of these aristocratic families was usually to get what they needed first.

This situation had occurred to almost all the aristocratic families in the Qi state. Even many aristocratic families in the state of Qi who had already submitted to the Lu clan were tempted.

Lu Chaohe and Weiyun were very angry about this. Disobeying orders, undisciplined, and having a tendency to lose organization after the war, as the commander, he would definitely be very unhappy.

However, Lu Qing was even more furious.

This was something he could not bear.

For him, attacking great Wu and even unifying the world was not for his desire for power, nor was it for the sake of unification. He hoped that the power of the nine celestial empires would all be under the jurisdiction of the system and that the power of the nine celestial empires could be unified. This was so that he could deal with the time fragments and integrate the power of the entire world to deal with the invasion of gods and demons.

The purpose of starting a war was also to serve this purpose.

In war, death was inevitable. This was also an inevitable sacrifice and price. However, after they had basically won the war, Lu Qing hoped that they could preserve the Wu Kingdom’s vitality as much as possible. After they took over, they could play their role as soon as possible.

What the Qi state’s aristocratic families were doing now did not conform to this rule at all.

If he let them continue like this, he would be left with a broken Wu country. What would he want it for?

Of course, it could be rebuilt, but the cost would be too high.

Lu Qing was furious and sent a voice transmission to Lu Chaohe. He also sent a letter to Weiyun.

After the two of them received Lu Qing’s instructions, they no longer hesitated. They immediately began to act according to Lu Qing’s instructions.

This was also a very good opportunity to integrate the Qi state’s power.

There were two main reasons why they didn’t do this in the past. One was that the situation in Qi state was relatively stable at that time. They were worried that a big move would damage the stability. Secondly, Lu Chaohe had become the Emperor because of Lu Qing’s power. The Lu clan did not have much Foundation in the Qi state, and they did not have many supporters.

But now, the situation was different.

First of all, they were in a state of war. In this state, it was more convenient to do some extraordinary things. Furthermore, Lu Chaohe had been the Emperor for more than ten years. Not to mention how powerful his methods were, he had the country of Yan as his foreign aid, Weiyun, a Dharma plane expert, to directly support him in the country of Qi all year round, and most importantly, Lu Qing’s reputation could be considered as his father’s existence, which could suppress his entire life. It would be very easy for him to do anything.

In fact, he didn’t even need to do much. Some of the aristocratic families in Qi state would naturally submit to him.

His position was much more stable than when he had just been promoted.

These two reasons added together were enough for Lu Chaohe to do things that were not easy to do before with Weiyun’s support.

In the end, there were only four words-eliminate dissidents.

Be obedient, stay, do your job well, and do whatever you want. The necessary discipline and organization could not be lacking. Otherwise, it would only take a word for them to lose their status, be disbanded, and even completely lose their power.

Of course, there were many who resisted, but what followed was a bloody suppression and purge. On one hand, it was because he had Weiyun’s support. On the other hand, the thousands of high-level cultivators from the Yan Kingdom that LAN nuo Xing had brought with him were also Lu Chaohe’s solid backing.

Lu Chaohe did not show any mercy in this round of purging.

Over four thousand Qi state cultivators were sentenced to death within seven days. This number was almost the same as the total number of Qi Kingdom’s Army’s casualties at the Yangzhou defense line.

Furthermore, there were many high-level cultivators among them. To a certain extent, Lu Chaohe’s purge operation was mainly targeted at the disobedient family leaders who had always liked to obey on the surface but disobeyed on the inside. Their performance on the battlefield this time was also very bad.

Under such a cruel and bloody rebellion, the remaining people naturally did not dare to speak any more nonsense. In their fear, they could only obey.

In reality, Lu Qing did not want to engage in such terrifying politics. But sometimes, if he didn’t go all out, he wouldn’t be able to solve the problem.

Then it would be better to shorten the pain.

Of course, this wasn’t without side effects.

When the news spread back to the Qi state, it would probably cause a great uproar.

For this reason, an Army of the country of Yan, which was mainly composed of a small number of Qingfeng sect cultivators and a large number of Yunxiao sect cultivators, rushed South and entered the territory of the country of Qi. They listened to the orders of the Empress of the country of Qi, Kong Anyang, and were ready to suppress the situation in the country.

Speaking of Kong Anyang, Lu Qing had some trust in this daughter-in-law of his.

She clearly cherished this throne that had nothing to do with her in the first place. She was also very smart and could realize that even if the Kong clan was really restored, not only would she have nothing to do with the throne, but she would also find it difficult to keep her life.

In the past ten years, she had been very cooperative with Lu Chaohe. Furthermore, she had clearly sided with the Lu clan. She had even returned to Yuyan mountain with Lu Chaohe once to visit Lu Qing.

And this point could also be seen from the system and the list of family members. Her loyalty was not low, and it could also be seen.

This time, with the help of the Yan Kingdom’s Army as foreign aid, the internal situation of the Qi Kingdom had become very tense, and some places had indeed become chaotic, but it could still be suppressed by Kong Anyang.

As for the other matter, he had no other choice.

The core of the storm was the Qi Army. At the moment, the Qi Army, which was still in a state of war, would definitely not be able to continue fighting with such a big change in internal affairs.

There was no need for that. He had already gained enough. It was wise to slow down the pace of the attack and turn to a defensive position to solve the internal problems and consolidate the results.

And this so-called turning into a defensive position was, of course, not defending the Wu people who had already collapsed and were unable to organize again.

Their target was the Chu people who were eyeing them covetously in the West.
