Peerless Daoist

"What happened to Tang Tianchao?" Lu Yu frowned.

"Tang Jun's commander Pugu Wynn did not retreat. On the contrary, Tang Jun also added several legions to the Ice Region, which seemed to mean a decisive battle."

Li Si said solemnly: "Li Ji's attitude was extremely firm and ordered the Tang army not to retreat. Not only that, Tang Tianchao also sent a prince to supervise the battle in person, and the morale was in full swing. Lu Jingsheng had already led the Qianlong army to arrive, but it is still not available. What substantial results."

"Oh?" Lu Yu raised his eyebrows and was surprised.

He had heard Wang Zhongsi say before that the purpose of the Tang army should be to find something, not to occupy territory.

The ice area is frozen for thousands of miles, the environment is quite harsh, and the land is vast and sparsely populated. There are very few resources there, and there is no special strategic position, there is no need to occupy there.

"Could it be that what Li Ji is looking for is in the ice field?"

Such an idea flashed across Lu Yu's mind, and suddenly felt that the possibility of this idea being true was quite high.

Li Ji is a dignified medieval hero who has used some means to survive in this world just to find something.

For this thing, he did not hesitate to launch wars again and again, which not only caused the heavens to fall into turmoil, but also consumed the remaining living power of the Tang Dynasty.

There are not many inheritances handed down from the Middle Ages in the Tang Dynasty. After Li Ji's consumption, there is indeed not much left. The two dynasties caught in the war consumed each other very seriously, and there was no real winner.

"Continue to pay attention to this matter, and let Zhang Yi take Skynet to the Ice Region. If Lu Jingsheng wants to increase his troops, he must not stop him." Lu Yu said solemnly.

Li Si nodded, he meant the same.

"In addition, we still can't relax our vigilance about the Jianghu sects. These forces were quite noisy in the Middle Ages, and it is far from being able to suppress them just by relying on the old local officials."

Lu Yu thought very clearly.

The reason why he was able to subdue those sectarian powerhouses was due to his personal strength.

But the heavens are too big. If they were replaced by another local official, without his strength, they would likely be influenced by the sect, or even become a puppet of the sectarian forces.

Those huge holy places have extremely broad industries, and they are present in every corner, and it is impossible to remove them all in an instant.

"You mean?"

"Since ancient times, the imperial court has had six divisions and five temples. I plan to set up another Fangwai Temple to exclusively manage all sectarian affairs. This matter cannot be completely handed over to the local officials, and people must be selected to deal with those sects." Lu Yu said solemnly.

Bazhou Prefecture Mumanmen was destroyed, and the tragic situation is still vivid in my mind.

Lu Yu had no plans to let such a situation repeat itself again.

"Fangwai Temple, the recruited members are mainly officials and sects, and they select elites with outstanding strength and extraordinary qualifications. They can have the right to command and transfer troops, and specially train a legion to suppress all sects."

This was Lu Yu's idea, but the specific implementation was left to Li Si.

Li Si's eyes lit up: "Since ancient times, all the dynasties that cultivated self-cultivation have ignored the sectarian forces, which made the sects lawless. With a special yamen under the jurisdiction, they also have fears, and they will think more about what they do."

Next, Lu Yu and Li Si had a few more detailed political conversations.

The two chatted for a full hour, and Li Si suddenly said: "By the way, Your Majesty, three days later, it will be the birthday of Lu Wudi, the Supreme Elder of the Lu family!"
