The first two thousand one hundred and ninety-five chapters behind the scenes
Do you really think that the Chu royal family has not sent strong men from the Foundation Establishment Stage to attack the rebel camp and carry out the beheading tactics for such a long time?
Wrong, when the rebels' military strength reached 500,000, the Chu royal family sent three strong men from the Foundation Establishment Stage to kill the rebels' leaders.
However, what shocked the Chu royal family, or furious, was that as soon as these three royal foundation-building powerhouses left Kyoto, there were bursts of violent explosions outside Kyoto.
From the powerful fluctuations of the qi, many people knew that this was a strong man in the foundation-building stage fighting.
The Chu royal family knew that the situation was not good at that time, so they quickly sent other strong men to support him. However, when the Chu support arrived at the battle site, the battle had already ended.
I believe everyone can guess what happened next. Yes, all three strong men in the Foundation Establishment Stage sent by the Chu royal family were killed.
Three strong men in the Foundation Establishment Stage were killed, and the other party did not hide it at all, and even attacked at the door of the Chu royal family. It can be seen that the strength of these enemies and their contempt for the Chu royal family.
Of course, the Chu royal family did not give up and immediately sent a large number of forces to investigate the matter. However, I don’t know if this hostile force is too powerful or if they are hiding it too well. The Chu royal family searched for a few days, but there were no clues at all.
At this time, the Chu royal family truly realized that they were in trouble. One or several extremely powerful forces stinged them. Combined with the three foundation-building powerhouses, what happened before? The Chu royal family didn't know that Pan Kun from Qingzhou was actually supporting these secret forces.
After knowing this, the Chu royal family did not hesitate anymore, and then sent more than 30 foundation-building powerhouses to wipe out the upper class of the rebels, and even secretly followed two Jindan ancestors.
Originally, the Chu royal family thought that with such powerful force, they could wipe out the rebels and teach those secretly evil soldiers a severe lesson, but half a month later, a sad news came.
The team sent by the royal family was secretly ambushed and attacked by strong men who were twice theirs before they arrived in Qingzhou.
After an earth-shaking battle, thirty-six Foundation Establishment Stage Powerhouses in the royal family fell directly, and even the remaining six were seriously injured. Two of them even broke their legs, and even if they recovered, their strength would be greatly reduced.
This is not amazing. The most amazing thing is the two Jindan stage ancestors. They were directly ambushed by five Jindan stage powerful men. In the end, one died and the other seriously injured. In the end, the general escaped.
With the injury of this Jindan ancestor, he has already shaken his roots. Even if he recovers his injuries in the end, his strength is only half as strong as before.
The royal family suddenly lost so many powerful people. Suddenly, the entire royal family became panicked. In order to ensure the safety of the royal family, the royal family shrank its strength and all the strong people gathered in the imperial city. One was to defend against the surprise attack of the enemy's expert group, and the other was to concentrate all their strength to deal with the next dangerous situation.
It can be said that the Chu royal family's decision to shrink all their strength has a good side.
After the Chu royal family shrank all their strength, the combat power they had lost was completely restored, and the secretly black hands no longer dared to attack the Kyoto royal family. Moreover, the originally turbulent royal family began to stabilize with the gathering of these forces.
At the same time, the powerful force gave the Chu royal family enough strength to investigate the mastermind behind the scenes.
Soon, the Chu royal family investigated some clues, and then they realized that this time several sects united to fight against the Chu royal family, including the Confucian sect.
As for why these sects were against the Chu royal family, the reason was very simple, but it was because of resources.
When the State of Chu was just established, the royal family had the strongest power. At that time, even the Confucian sect and top sects like Taiyi sect could only crawl at the feet of the Chu royal family.
However, as time goes by, the peaceful and comfortable life gradually allowed the Chu royal family to develop the habit of enjoyment. In this way, as time goes by, the strength of the royal family is getting lower and lower.
Correspondingly, the strength of the sects that were suppressed by the Chu royal family is getting stronger and stronger. As their strength increases, these aristocratic families and sects will certainly not be so honest. They began to continuously attack the royal family.
This time the same is true. With the accumulation of Confucianism over the years, the strength of Confucianism has become stronger and stronger. Correspondingly, the royal family's fear of Confucianism has become stronger and stronger, and then it has continuously suppressed the development of Confucianism in the State of Chu.
For example, in the cultivation world, the Chu royal family married Taiyi Sect and joined forces with Taiyi Sect to suppress the Confucian Sect, making it difficult for the Confucian Sect to grow in the cultivation world of Chu.
In the Chu court, the royal family constantly inserted the talents they had carefully cultivated into the court, constantly excluding the people in the court.
The most important thing is that the Chu royal family used the threat from the barbarians to vigorously improve the strength of the army in the court, which can be said to have directly aroused the dissatisfaction of the Confucian clan.
You know, this is on the mainland of China, not on the earth.
Because there is no super force and no ability to practice on earth, people are still normal. In this case, even if an emperor improves the status of generals, as long as he dies, those literati can soon overthrow such policies.
In addition, because the generals on the earth do not have strong combat power, or the combat power is not such a myth, it is easy and even bold for the literati to control them.
However, these don't work on the mainland of China.
In the mainland of China, a world of cultivators, in which they can become a general of a country, they are all very strong.
The innate stage is very common, and it is also uncommon for great masters and supreme masters. Some are even more capable of the foundation-building stage.
Facing such a strong man, do you think he is like the literati on the ancient earth, who still has the courage and the courage to plot against these generals?!
In addition, the lifespan of practitioners is not low. For example, practitioners in the innate stage have a lifespan of 120 or 30 years. Such a lifespan is enough to ensure the long-term right of speech for military generals in the court.
In order to expand its own strength, the Confucian Sect had been suppressing the power of military generals. However, now the Chu royal family has begun to strengthen the power of military generals, which makes it difficult for the Confucian Sect to accept.
In addition, the targets of several sects of Taiyi Sect, the Confucian Chu State's division of sects and the Confucian headquarters knew that if this continued, the Chu State might become another great Qin Empire in the future.
In the Great Qin Empire, because the royal family is extremely powerful, even the Confucian clan has to call him dad obediently when facing the royal family of the Great Qin Empire.
The Confucian Sect didn't want the Chu State to become another Qin Empire in the future, so they began to secretly attack.
Just in time, the floods in Qingzhou were flooded, which gave the Confucian clan hope to overthrow the Chu royal family.
Afterwards, things became simple. The Confucian Sect secretly sent a large number of people into the refugees, and then a rebellion naturally appeared. With the secret support of the Confucian Sect, the rebels in Qingzhou became stronger and stronger, and have now become a powerful force that cannot be ignored.
The Chu royal family did know about this, but even though they knew that there were Confucian sects and several other sects who were secretly making trouble, the Chu royal family had no choice but to do anything to them.
Why?
The reason is very simple, the Chu royal family has not yet captured it!
Thousands of years of comfortable life have long made the inside of the Chu royal family a piece of garbage. If the power of the Chu royal family was one hundred when the founding of the country was just 100, then there would be no ten now.
The drastic weakening power made the Chu royal family unable to do anything to the Confucian sect and several other sects.
To be honest, if it weren't for the royal family and the powerful sect of Taiyi Sect as allies, and several late-stage ancestors of the Jindan stage, the Chu royal family would have been destroyed long ago.
However, Taiyi Sect is just an ally after all, and what the world is well-known is that the covenant can be torn up at any time, that is, the relationship between allies is not 100% reliable.
Once others give more benefits, it is quite simple to change the position of Taiyi Zong.
The subsequent development is almost the same. If the royal family wants to unite with Taiyi Sect to make the Confucian Sect look good, it is best to wipe out several subordinate sects of Confucian Sect to demonstrate, but Taiyi Sect directly refused.
As for the reasons in it, it goes without saying that as long as you know that Taiyi Sect refused.
It is actually normal for Taiyi Sect to do this.
Now in the Chu State, the royal family, Taiyi Sect, and the Confucian Sect are actually three-legged. Now the royal family and the Confucian Sect are starting a war. Do you think Taiyi Sect will join immediately?
Haha, how could they do this? A truly smart person must be watching the show while waiting for both sides to be exhausted before taking action.
At that time, Taiyi Sect could not only easily defeat the royal family and Confucian sect, but also its own losses would also be reduced to a minimum.
Faced with such a situation, what would you choose?!
Oh, you are worried that the royal family will make peace with the Confucians directly, or join forces with each other...
Haha, this is completely impossible.
The Confucian clan may not want to lose both sides with the royal family, and in the end they were taken advantage of by Taiyi Sect, but the Chu royal family would definitely not.
It was not because of the huge losses in the preceding countries that the Chu royal family was unwilling to make peace with the Confucians. These losses were huge, but if the imperial power could be guaranteed, the Chu royal family would not care about the losses several times.
The Chu royal family really wanted to fight the Confucian clan to the end because the Confucian clan was peeping at the imperial power and the throne that belonged to their Yan clan!
