Lord Yunzhong in Douluo

Chapter 467 Title: Guess My Name

Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City, Ye, An Guogong's mansion.

In the large and exquisite Duke's Mansion, there is a small house located in the southeast, with candles shining through the windows, illuminating a dozen waiters and servants waiting outside the house.

These servants wore red girdles on their left arms, and a long cold iron knife hung around their waists. They patrolled the surrounding environment vigilantly, and took two steps from time to time to check the blind spots they had just seen.

Even if a waiter who is responsible for delivering food and water wants to enter the room, he will be stopped by a servant with a knife. After checking that the food and water are safe and non-toxic, he will take these things and send them into the room himself inside.

In the room, more than [-] men and women in very gorgeous and exquisite clothes of various colors sat at a huge round table, talking about various affairs.

Tonight, this is the place where the Constitutional Party gathers and talks, and it is still hosted by An Guogong Han Zhaolin.

As a coalition of powers that has not been fully exposed to the surface, every once in a while, An Guogong or some other members of the Constitutional Party will secretly call everyone to discuss affairs, and the venues for the discussions are different. kind of place.

However, although there are not few people in the constitutional party who can call many nobles to discuss affairs together, the only one who can call all members is Anguogong Han Zhaolin.

Tonight is the time when the constitutional party, which is rare in this period, is fully assembled.

"My lord, I see the current situation. The Star Luo Empire next door has been destroyed by the Wuhun Palace. Not only the imperial city has been occupied, but the emperor has also been killed. I'm afraid the Wuhun Palace wants to be in Xingluo. Shall we build a nation on the territory? Shall we make some gestures, at least take some of the territory of Xingluo? How can we say that our Tiandou also contributed a lot in this continental war, and we have suffered a lot, so we can get some compensation from the Xingluo Empire Not too much."

Wang Bohou put down the golden goblet in his hand, put his hands on the table, and spoke in the interval when everyone's discussions gradually subsided.

And as Wang Bohou's words fell, the people on the round table in the room suddenly became quiet. Except for a few nobles who closed their eyes and hung up high, the eyes of the others were basically wandering and communicating, asking and testing each other. Views.

"That's right, no matter how you say it, in this war, we, Tiandou, held back the main force of Xingluo, so that Wuhundian was able to drive straight into Xingluo's territory, and we and Wuhundian were also in this war. The allies who have signed the agreement should be able to get a share of the pie!"

"Yes, the old man also thinks there is no problem."

The many nobles in the room started to make noise, talking about what kind of reward they and others should ask for from the Spirit Hall, but no one said anything more about the Spirit Hall's attempt to establish political power in the territory of the Star Luo Empire.

After all, the appearance of those twenty Titled Douluo is enough to scare the courage of most Heaven Dou nobles, and the Hall of Spirits can easily overturn everything they currently have.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Coughing sounded, and an old man in Chinese clothes who had been sitting with his eyes closed and hadn't spoken much finally opened his eyes.

"Before everyone asks for the rewards of the war, I would like to remind you of a few things. First, we did sign a covenant with Wuhundian, but in order to ask for the help of Wuhundian, the empire paid a lot of money to ask for their help." To help, the covenant at that time was only asking them to stop the war, and all we can get is a certain amount of war compensation from the Star Luo Empire."

An Guogong used hoarse words to beat the people who were gradually advancing in arrogance.

"Later, it was because of the Star Luo Empire's attack on Wuhun City that the Wuhun Palace launched the war of destroying the country." An Guogong's eyes flickered coldly, scanning the people on the round table, "That is to say, the follow-up The national war is actually the majestic battle of the Spirit Hall, and its relationship with the Heaven Dou Empire is not as great as you imagine."

"So what we can get, strictly according to the covenant, is nothing more than a drop in the bucket of certain war indemnity, this is still on the premise that Wuhundian is willing to implement the previous covenant."

Knocking on the table with his fingers, An Guogong's old face showed no expression: "So everyone, don't hope too much that you can get too much from the Spirit Hall through this war, although we will try our best to fight for it."

"And don't forget, what is our most important goal at this stage..."

"...to tie the imperial power with our own chains."

……

Wuhun City, inside the Pope's Palace, the office.

Hu Liena sat at her own desk, sorting out the information letters sent from various places in Xingluo, which contained the confidential information compiled and sorted out by the Spirit Halls of various places when they checked and sorted out the government documents of various places.

A long time ago, when Hu Liena just learned about the mainland strategy planned by her teacher, she thought about a problem.

Why did the teacher put the first step in the strategy of destroying the country on the Star Luo Empire instead of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Obviously, the armed forces of the Heavenly Dou Empire are more than one point weaker than that of the Star Luo Empire, so it will be easier to deal with.

After thinking about it for a long time, Hu Liena gradually understood the reason after officially helping the teacher handle government affairs for a period of time and gaining a deeper understanding of the systems of the two empires.

The Star Luo Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire, one is like an autocratic monarchy country, while the other is like a federation of monarchs and nobles.

The Star Luo Empire has a strong national power, high national cohesion, and strong execution. It is extremely difficult to defeat, and the emperor's will is implemented throughout the entire empire.

However, in such a highly centralized autocratic country, the autonomy of local governments and various institutions is not high, and local power is not strong.Once their core government is defeated, it is not very difficult to take over the entire empire.

Because the empire has only one brain, whether it is central or local, and when the situation is stable, it can concentrate a lot of power, but when the brain is gone, the entire huge empire will immediately stop functioning and be on the verge of collapse.

At this time, it only needs to connect a new brain to take over the entire empire immediately, and then use your own will to rectify the empire into what you like.

Moreover, due to the strict management system of the Star Luo Empire, the management of various affairs in the territory is strict and orderly, and it has very complete and detailed information. After taking over, Wuhundian can quickly sort out all the situations in the territory.

As for the Heaven Dou Empire, due to its special political system, there are many local dignitaries and powers. Each province, principality, and even local cities and counties have their own sets of teams and systems.

Just like a country has many brains, national power is diversified.

In many places, there are long-rooted and intertwined family forces, which control all aspects of the place, and are extremely hidden and difficult to remove.

Although a weak national force can quickly overthrow and defeat the core government, it will take a hundred times more energy in the follow-up takeover work. It is very difficult to completely rectify the pluralistic structure, and it is difficult to implement a unified will.

This long digestion time will give Xing Luo more time to counterattack and increase variables.

So instead of attacking the easy-to-conquer but hard-to-digest Heaven Dou Empire first to give the Star Luo Empire more time to prepare, it is better to take the easy-to-digest Star Luo Empire first, and then deal with Tian Dou.

"Teacher, do we still need to send more manpower from the Spirit Hall to deal with the main force of Xingluo who are still entrenched in the Principality of Barak?"
