I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 224: Good intentions lead to bad consequences, the underestimated son of luck! (Please subscribe and give me monthly tickets)
Tuoba is so used to being invincible that he must have a problem with his brain. Li Chen thinks the empress also has a problem with her brain.

Coincidentally, the empress really thought so. When she arrived at the front line, she proposed to fight with Li Chen in front of the two armies to dampen the morale of the Tiance Dynasty.

The empress was inexplicably confident. She was invincible in the country anyway. With that kind of unparalleled confidence, she didn't think she would lose to anyone.

But all the soldiers, including the imperial teacher and heads of other families, advised the empress not to do so. Didn't Tuoba really learn a profound lesson?

Winning the battle is a good thing, but if we lose, even the Holy Mountain City, a natural barrier, will be lost.

After hearing what the soldiers said, the empress was angry for a long time and felt that they were looking down on her.

The soldiers kept explaining that it was not that they lacked confidence in the empress. The empress was definitely invincible, but Li Chen was very cunning and might be cheating. It would be bad if the empress fell into the trap.

They also tried their best to take care of the empress's emotions.

Not every emperor is so easy to serve.

The clan leaders of the other three clans who came to participate in the joint confrontation also felt that this young empress was a bit unreliable. You asked our three clans to come here to work together to fight against the Tiance Dynasty. Why are you going to fight alone?

If you really go, and win, we won't say anything. If you lose, we will stab you in the back, so don't regret it.

Anyway, we have said what we should say. If you don't listen to our advice, it proves that you don't care about our opinions at all. How can we work together with you then?

After much persuasion from the soldiers, the empress finally agreed not to challenge Li Chen to a duel, thus letting Li Chen go.

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that women are really hard to please, but it would be fine if they just listened to him.

The next step is to configure some tactics and arrange the city defenses. The soldiers will judge from which direction the Tiance Dynasty's troops will attack and what countermeasures and tactics to adopt based on the characteristics of the troops.

Moreover, some soldiers mentioned that the 20 cavalrymen of the royal court are very difficult to deal with and are fearless of death. Their commander Helan Xuan always fights in an unexpected way, so they have to be on guard against him.

Next is some basic information about the vanguard soldiers of the Tiance Dynasty and their research on the fighting style of commander Guo Poyun.

Then, we can look at the configuration of the Harmonic Pulse Formation and the tactics that can be adopted based on the characteristics of the monster army.

These are just simulations. Once we really get to the battlefield, I'm afraid the opponent will change their tactics.

Then they need to think of several more contingency measures.

The empress listened to these soldiers talk for several hours and tried to interrupt. She felt that she understood something, but the tactics she put forward were quickly rejected by other generals.

She is now a little mentally broken. In her opinion, this is even more difficult than breaking through to the Saint realm. If she had known this earlier, she would not have come.

Why is war so troublesome? Can't she just take the lead and charge forward to defeat the enemy directly?

In other words, he was standing on the city wall, waiting for the Tiance Dynasty to attack and start a life-and-death battle.

Fortunately, she didn't say it, otherwise all the soldiers in the army would look at her as if she were a fool.

You really think this is a fight between two villages or a group brawl between hundreds of people? A full-scale war is not as simple as you think.

In ancient times, people had no tactics, no meridian formations, no standard set of cultivation techniques, and weapon configurations were not uniform.

Therefore, in wars at that time, it all depended on which side had more people and which side had stronger practitioners, and that side would take the lead in the charge.

But later, some smart leaders discovered that they could use traps, terrain and other advantages to defeat the larger enemy with a smaller one.

Then, some people began to use tactics, through the combination of different types of troops, to achieve the goal of defeating the larger force with the smaller one.

Later, some people developed a technique suitable for soldiers to practice, which allowed the meridians to resonate and greatly improved the soldiers' combat capabilities.

This is how the human race is, constantly engaged in war, developing powerful weapons and tactics, and if they fall behind they will definitely be beaten.

The soldiers in the tent were still discussing, but the empress couldn't bear to listen any longer, so she decided to go out and relax.

When she came out of the tent, she looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and thought to herself: Wouldn’t the emperor of the Tiance Dynasty have a headache considering so many things every day?
What she didn't know was that Li Chen, who was also looking up at the sky, was thinking about something else.

Perhaps in the eyes of the empress, the Tiance Dynasty is a huge trouble.

But to be honest, Li Chen still doesn't take the Sassanid Empire seriously.

His target is all the races he saw in his dream.

Among all races, humans can be said to be the weakest, but this weakest refers to the physical strength at birth. However, humans can defeat other races through wisdom.

The myriad races may not accept this, because there are also some excellent commanders among them.

But if we say this, the human race will definitely not accept it, as if those people in our race who have the holy bodies are just eating for free.

At this stage, only Li Chen is preparing for the war among all races, and only the three masters of the Star Moon Cave know about this matter.

As I said, if Li Chen wants to seize the immortal resources of the immortal clan, he must first solve the troubles around him, and it would be best to unify the plane.

Conquering the Sassanid Empire was only one step. This world was even more vast than Li Chen had imagined. There were even many places that Peng Zhao, who drew the map, had never been to.

As for how to develop, Li Chen actually considered predatory expansion, which would enable him to accumulate wealth in a short period of time and obtain a large amount of resources and markets.

That is to say, all human resources and cultivation resources except for the Tiance Dynasty are taken over by themselves.

Through war, seize and transport resources back to develop the Tiance Dynasty and make it the center of the entire world.

But such long-term oppression will definitely lead to civil unrest, that is, a plane war. Those strong people who want to be king will take advantage of the situation and rise up, and then the entire plane will be reshuffled.

Isn’t this how the Yuan Dynasty perished?

The Yuan Dynasty treated all the people in the world as nourishment, accumulating countless wealth and resources for the development of the royal family. At that time, the royal family had reached its peak, and could not withstand the riots of the people in the world.

Li Chen realized that the Li family's method of stable rule was already very obvious. For example, any city in the Tiance Dynasty had a city lord, a prefect, and a city supervisor.

The city lord is a local who understands the local situation and has prestige, so he can better manage the local residents. The prefect and the city supervisor are people sent by the imperial court. While maintaining public order, they are also responsible for city defense, etc., and can help the imperial court manage the place.

This will allow a city to achieve stability while decentralizing power.

This is what Li Chen did when he conquered the Northern Royal Court. He gave Huyanlan the title of Khan. He was nothing more than the lord of a larger city. As for other aspects, the court would definitely arrange personnel for them. It would be impossible for Huyanlan to become the next King of Zhennan.

These are all small matters and Li Chen doesn't need to think about them personally. As long as the city is conquered, the court officials will naturally make arrangements. This is their job.

People of different identities naturally consider different things.

At Li Chen's level, he has already considered the future development of the human race and the war with all other races.

The empress of the Sassanid Empire was thinking about how to resist the army of the Tiance Dynasty.

What Xiao Ming, the son of luck, is thinking about is, where is my mother!
Last time, with the help of Liu Hao and Li Ji, Xiao Ming destroyed the Qi family and captured many people.

During the interrogation process in the past few days, he learned about something that happened many years ago. When the Wang family helped the Qi family to destroy the Xiao family, they specifically pointed out that Xiao Ming's mother must not be harmed and must be captured alive.

Although the Qi family didn't know why they did this, they and the Xiao family were enemies. With the help of the Wang family, they naturally destroyed the Xiao family easily, resulting in the annihilation of Xiao Ming's entire clan.

The Qi family took over all the resources of the Xiao family and, as required, handed Xiao Ming's mother over to the Wang family. They really had no idea what happened next.

Because the Qi family is not at this level enough to contact Wang Tengyue and Wang Tengfeng.

They are just obedient dogs, so if Xiao Ming wants to find his mother, he must investigate the Wang family.

Coincidentally, the Wang family has now been destroyed by the royal family, so it is neither difficult nor straightforward to investigate.

Xiao Ming's identity is the head of the Ministry of Justice, and he has a high level of investigative authority. He went directly to Yinshan City to investigate the remnants of the Wang family.

The new mayor of Yinshan City was very cooperative and provided him with the files, as well as some imprisoned people who knew the situation.

Xiao Ming learned about the Wang family's crimes from someone who knew the situation, and was so angry that he wanted to skin Wang Tengyue alive.

With the demise of the Wang family, many people who were imprisoned by the Wang family were rescued, including some women in the family.

But after Xiao Ming investigated for a while, he found that his mother was not among these women.

However, these women provided information that the Wang family had been attacked on a certain day, and some of the attackers rescued some of the women inside. Perhaps Xiao Ming's mother had been rescued.

Xiao Ming came to the old site of the Wang family. When he first came in, he exclaimed: "The Wang family's territory is really large."

The remnant soul of his master, the Saint, said: "It is normal. The Wang family has been developing for thousands of years, and the accumulated wealth is enough for your Tiance Dynasty to fight the Sassanid Dynasty."

As an official from the Ministry of Justice, it was natural for him to enter the Wang family to investigate.

Now Xiao Ming is not alone. He has twenty people under him, all of whom are good players selected from various places. They are also very loyal to Xiao Ming, at least for now.

After a series of investigations, Xiao Ming was surprisingly lucky. He found a lot of traces in the woods outside the back door of the Wang family ruins.

Following these traces, he found the bodies of the Wang family guards.

In addition, there are some ropes.

When Xiao Ming was observing the bodies of the Wang family guards, the remnant soul of the saint analyzed: "These guards were defeated by a swordsmanship expert, and they were all killed with one strike. To be able to do this, he must be at least at the peak of the Tianyuan Realm, and it is possible that he is at the Saint Realm."

At this time, Xiao Ming's men came to report that they had learned from the towns along the river that the palace guards had captured three women who were planning to sink the ship that night, and one of them was roughly the same as Xiao Ming's description.

That would explain why there is a rope here.

Xiao Ming judged that his mother should have been rescued by a strong man, so he asked around to see if there was anyone at the peak of the Tianyuan Realm, or the Saint Realm, who met such requirements and had appeared.

The saints are easy to find. There are only a few saints in the world anyway, and it’s easy to find out who is nearby.

But we always have to be prepared for the worst. What if it belongs to those hermits? It would be difficult to find them myself.

As for the peak of Tianyuan Realm, there are actually not many of them. You will find out if you ask carefully.

During the following period of time, Xiao Ming asked his men to look for clues and visit the strong men around, asking them whether any swordsmanship masters had taken action during this period and rescued people from the Wang family.

This search turned out to be quite a lot.
Most of the cultivators were sword cultivators, and there were many sects nearby. When the imperial court issued a mission, they also participated together in the attack on the Wang family.

While his subordinates were busy, Xiao Ming prepared to go to the nearby Shanghe City to continue to be Lin Yue'e's licker and wait for news from his subordinates.

The remnant soul of the saint was very angry when he saw this, and scolded him, telling him not to let him down at the critical moment, as there might be clues nearby.

At this time, you should behave normally and find your mother first. You have plenty of time to please Lin Yue'e.

Since the remnant soul of the saint has become strict recently, Xiao Ming listened to the advice and did not go to Shanghe City.

But because of this, he missed the most important clue.

As long as he goes to Shanghe City, with his luck, he will most likely be able to come into contact with people from the Jiang family in Shanghe City.

Many people from the Jiang family have entered the palace, but Jiang Mo is still here, and so are the maids from the Jiang family.

Xiao Ming can obtain key information from these people.

The maids of the Jiang family had seen Xiao Ming's mother.

Even if he is not so lucky, Shanghe City Supervisor Lin Yue'e will help him investigate, and they will soon find out who rescued his mother.

After all, Li Chen was the only Saint who was active near Shanghe City at that time.

The remnant soul of the saint really wanted to help Xiao Ming, but sometimes he underestimated Xiao Ming's luck and intuition.

In the living room of Jiang's house in Shanghe City, Jiang Mo sat alone, enjoying the service of the maids.

As Jiang Rong's younger sister, Jiang Mo is very beautiful. She has cute twin ponytails, a baby face and baby fat, giving people a pure and innocent feeling.

However, in sharp contrast to her lovely appearance, she is tall, with a full and firm chest. When she walks, she sways gracefully, exuding a unique charm that is both pure and sexy.

Because of her high talent, she is an inner disciple of Yuxu Immortal Mansion.

Her appearance made her very popular among male disciples.

Now she is the head of the Jiang family in Shanghe City.

She has to shoulder a heavy responsibility at a young age, and she wants to develop the Jiang family through her own efforts.

But she found that her efforts were useless, and the Jiang family was still functioning normally even without her.

After all, my sister had taken care of everything before she left.

The Jiang family in Shanghe City has the care of the royal family and Lin Yue'e, so they will definitely be fine.

In her opinion, her sister and family must be serving the emperor in order to protect the Jiang family's foundation, so she actually didn't have a good impression of Li Chen.

Because she felt that Li Chen was too greedy. It would have been fine if he just took her sister away, but why did he take her mother and aunt away as well?

Thinking of this, Jiang Mo felt that it would be better to practice hard. Only when she became strong could she protect the Jiang family. Sooner or later, the Jiang family would need her strength.

The reason why she is resting in the Jiang family now is because she has accepted a mission and is waiting for the opening of the magic cave.

Then, if you work with the people from the sect to eliminate the monsters in the cave, you will be able to gain certain opportunities!

Jiang Mo has a bad impression of the royal family because there are anti-royal people in his team!
