Chapter 526: Splitting the Land into Territory
"This Jichuan defense line is no longer necessary. Send an order - Zhenyuan Army and Hanyue Army return to Zhenzhou Prefecture together;
For the war camps of the noble families that were overturned in this battle, an exception can be made and the full complement of 6,000 men in the main camp of the army can be used to reorganize the war camp;

If a great monk from an aristocratic family dies in a bloody battle, the City Defense Department will select two descendants of this family and put them on the list of golden elixir resource suppliers.

Then order the city defense departments of each county and base city to reorganize the wasteland garrison from scratch, but this army will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the local city defense department, but will be directly mobilized and commanded by the headquarters of the state city defense department! "

At this moment, it seemed that all kinds of emotions were churning out of Tian Shouchang's mind.

But he remained extremely calm, which was rare.

As he spoke, not only the direct descendants of the Tian family beside him, but also those great cultivators from various aristocratic families who were not on good terms with him, all focused their eyes on Tian Shouchang.

The successive transfer orders he issued at this moment demonstrated the Tian family's means of dealing with the turbulent aftermath of this bloody battle.

Whether it is allowing the aristocratic family war camp to be reorganized with the full quota of regular camp members, or using the resources of the Taoist Alliance, promising the death of one great monk and helping them use the resources to pile up two great monks.

The Tian family is willing to shed blood to further win over those noble families who have shown loyalty and followed the Tian family through life and death.

The more precarious the situation seemed, the Tian family's hand, which controlled the overall situation of the other families, tightened its grip.

Furthermore, whether it was mobilizing the Zhenyuan and Hanyue armies to "guard" the provincial government, or in the name of the City Defense Headquarters, in fact the Tian family directly controlled the wasteland garrisons in various places.

This means that the Tian family has decisively and unabashedly extended their hands into the realm of military affairs.

The Tian family took the initiative to break the relatively balanced power structure among the various families in the state, and began to forcibly and brutally seize the most critical part of the former Ding family's heritage.

They began to use the violent war machine to continue to maintain their prestige as the leader of Qizhou!

A sick tiger, when feeling its life and death situation, let out a ferocious and brutal roar that it had never made before.

The tiger roars in the mountains, and its power is three times stronger than before.

And in the original place.

Tian Shouchang seemed not to care about anyone's gaze.

After hesitating for a moment, he continued speaking.

“In addition, the City Defense Department needs to draft an official letter to inform the Wind Patrol Department of any incidents that occurred during the bloody battle that are suspected to be related to human traitor spies.

The great monks of the National Salvation Society had just set out from Xingmen County when they passed the news to the evil monks of the Fengsheng Sect.

There are only aristocratic families nearby! The most suspicious one among them is the Tian family of Nanchen County!

Although we are of the same blood, this is a matter of bloody battle and the laws of the Taoist Alliance. Even if you are a member of the Wutian family, you have to kill your own relatives for the sake of justice!
Please ask the Patrol Department to conduct a thorough investigation! "

Before this, when the prestige of the Tian family was declining, the main line was still trying hard to maintain superficial peace with the ancestral lineage.

But at this moment, when his reputation has fallen to the lowest point, Tian Shouchang decisively chose to break off relations with his former boss.

And he began to suppress the Tian family's ancestral lineage without hesitation!
Tian Shangqing is dead. Since the incident of the Four Swordsmen Coming from the West in the past, and then to the outbreak of Yue Hanzhang in this bloody battle.

Too many great sword masters from the ancestral lineage died.

The decline of the ancestral lineage is already a fact visible to the naked eye. At the same time, Tian Shouli has been promoted to the Nine Seal Golden Elixir realm, and it has become a very obvious tendency for the branch lineage to defect to Yue Hanzhang.

When weighing the two options, which persimmon is softer and easier to squeeze is a very easy thing for Tian Shouchang to weigh.

Moreover, by using this incident as an excuse to suppress the ancestral lineage, it was also to block possible attacks from Yue Hanzhang in advance.

Tian Shangqing alone has caused such disaster.

Not to mention the current rift between Yue Hanzhang and the Tian family, he would never let Yue Hanzhang find any handle to cause trouble.

Comprehensive and meticulous, it kills two birds with one stone.

Almost from the moment he decided to completely abolish the Jichuan defense line, once he turned his attention back to the heart of Qizhou, back to the huge city built by power in the provincial capital.

Tian Shouchang suddenly seemed to reveal his extraordinary talent and genius.

Even at this moment, staring at Tian Shouchang issuing one order after another in an orderly manner, more than one person suddenly had this thought -

If this person could use half of his talent and ability in this area of ​​petty intrigue and despicable behavior on tactics, I'm afraid the bloody battle in Jichuan County would not be what it is today.

And the other side.

After completing various arrangements, Tian Shouchang then turned his gaze to the great monks from various aristocratic families who were also supposed to protect him further away.

At this moment, Tian Shouchang's gaze suddenly changed from extreme indifference to a look of resentment.

These aristocratic families were originally supposed to be the peripheral forces of the Tian family and the "insiders" who protected Tian Shouchang.

But on that day, in the bloody battle, the sword began to fall.

When they issued the transfer order under the identity of Tian Shouchang.

When they took the initiative to withdraw from the northern battlefield of Jichuan in accordance with Yue Hanzhang's reply.

Tian Shouchang had already become enemies with these people.

Of course, Tian Shouchang might also understand that he was stuck in the bloody battlefield that day and was afraid that he could no longer influence the changes in the war situation.

Even the reactions made by these great monks from aristocratic families are the most correct decisions.

But there are some things that Tian Shouchang can't let go of.

Even instinctively, he had attributed the fact that the Tian family lost control of Jichuan County to the betrayal of these "Tian family running dogs".

These people have set a very bad precedent.

Thereafter.

Yue Hanzhang was not the only one who had a grudge against the Donghua Tian family.

But Tian Shouchang did not get angry. He understood that at this moment, on the Jichuan defense line, these great monks from aristocratic families had vaguely condensed into a whole after their betrayal, a whole that had even torn its face off and could determine the life and death of the remaining direct descendants of the Tian family!

Therefore, the resentful look did not evolve into resentful words or resentful orders in the end.

Tian Shouchang simply asked without hiding his disgust.

"What about you? We are evacuating back to the state capital. Where are you planning to go?"

I can’t go back to the state capital.

These great monks from aristocratic families also understand this truth.

At this moment, they were able to use the actual situation to force Tian Shouchang to control his emotions.

But once they return to the provincial capital, to the real territory that the Tian family has run for decades, all the things that happened today will be settled.

There is no place for them there anymore.

This is something they have figured out and discussed a long time ago.

So, when Tian Shouchang finished speaking, on the other side, the young monk who had stabbed Tian Shouchang with a knife, bowed to Tian Shouchang in good preparation.

"To reply to Chief Tian, ​​we will not be going back to the provincial capital. Of course, we will not be going to Nanchen County either. The patrol officers are coming soon, and we do not want to cause trouble for their inspection.

It’s just that our clan still has some minor businesses outside, and coincidentally, most of them are concentrated in Nanxu County, and we are planning to stay in Nanxu County for a while.”

After all, these noble families were once like “vassals” of the Donghua Tian family; they could not write two “Tian” characters with one stroke.

Tian Shouchang asked this because he was afraid that after offending the main branch of the Tian family, they would turn around and go to the ancestral branch of the Tian family.

Hearing the responses from the cultivators, Tian Shouchang actually felt relieved.

Even if these people went to Nanxu County, where Yue Hanzhang's Tianjiao Corps built a permanent camp, Tian Shouchang only had the thought in his mind that "it is better to surrender to the enemy than to surrender to the heretics".

I just thought about the responses of these great monks from aristocratic families.

The Beiting National Salvation Society set up its headquarters in Xingmen County, which was the gateway from Qizhou to Wuzhou. Further south, in the northern border town of Wuzhou, sat a part of Yue Hanzhang's three giant enterprises.

Yue Hanzhang had come to the rescue in the past and had already saved Nanxu County from distress. Even as early as when the Tianjiao Corps was being formed, the various aristocratic families in Nanxu County had already sent their direct descendants to participate in the war.

Today, Yue Hanzhang is rescuing Sichuan County from disaster, and this is also Yue Hanzhang’s hometown.

Even looking further northwest, the ones guarding Haiquan Pass, where the current situation is unknown, are none other than the Tielin Army of the Bingdao Sun family and Tan Linhui, who used to be Yue Hanzhang's class teacher.

Think about it this way.

The Tian family is about to lose control of more than just Jichuan County!
Xingmen County, Nanxu County, Jichuan County, and Haiquanguan City.

From south to north, from west to east.

These three counties and one city are connected into a line, and now, they are all controlled by Yue Hanzhang's prestige.

The defeat of the demon soldiers and evil cultivators is a foreseeable fact.

They retreated.

But for the Donghua Tian family, the "land subsidence" of Qizhou has made the situation even more tragic at this moment!

As for what these great monks from aristocratic families meant when they said they wanted to stay in Nanxu County for a while, it was self-evident.

then.

There was a lot of anger in his heart, but finally, Tian Shouchang sneered coldly.

"What? Do you think Yue Hanzhang has completely gained power and are thinking of going to join him?
Don’t you ever think about what kind of people are around them?
Not to mention the righteous cause of the National Salvation Society, the leaders of the battle groups led by Yue Hanzhang were all geniuses and evildoers from the northern and southern states.

What are you all like? You are nothing but the hyenas that my Tian family raised in the past!

Do you think that by betraying the Tian family and joining the Yue family, you can turn from a dog into a human being?

joke!

I'm afraid Yue Hanzhang won't even look at you for a few more times!"

When I heard this.

The young monk at the original place was quite carefree and unconcerned, he even smiled peacefully.

"Master Tian is right. Our family's foundation is incomplete and fragile, like duckweed on the water. In the tide of this era, we are destined to go with the flow and be dogs for others.

We know and we acknowledge it.

But no matter what, Yue Hanzhang has always been winning, always winning.

Being a dog... you have to choose a good master, what do you think, Mr. Tian?"

Upon hearing this, Tian Shouchang was speechless.

Yes, the most difficult issue to resolve in the rift between the Donghua Tian family and Yue Hanzhang is not the many grievances that had been planted in the past.

But Yue Hanzhang has always been winning and has never lost! ——
at the same time.

In the boundless sea of ​​Dao, in the midst of the bloody battle, Yue Hanzhang seemed to be infected by the surging power instigated by Qin Linhui.

Suddenly, he stepped on the bright light of thunder and fire and rushed towards the figure in the blood-colored straw raincoat.

"Teacher Qin, I'm here to help you!"
