Chapter 458
Before targeting Guanglei Mountain, there is a question to ask:
Why must Guanglei Mountain be taken down?
Can the two sides maintain peace and live in peace and harmony, and live their own lives?
No.

It is indeed not possible.

Because the interests of Wancheng Kingdom are not limited to the small Zhongyuan Continent.

Dongyuanzhou, more than [-] miles away to the east, has a radius of one million miles, a city of [-], and a huge population.

Beiyuanzhou, which is tens of thousands of miles away to the north, has a radius of 50 miles, thousands of cities, and a population of hundreds of millions.

Xiyuanzhou, 20 miles away to the west, has a radius of 80 miles. It has several spiritual veins, over a hundred sects, and countless mortal cities.

Nanyuanzhou, 20 li away to the south, has a radius of [-] li, slightly larger than Zhongyuanzhou, and more prosperous.

Only Zhongyuan Continent, which is located in the middle, has average spirit veins, average resources, average strength and competitiveness.

It can even be said to be the bottom.

In addition to the four continents of east, west, north and south, there are more populous and more powerful continents in farther places.

Compared with this huge jujube-shaped plane with a maximum diameter of 1 light-year and a central diameter of more than 2 trillion kilometers, the small Zhongyuanzhou is simply a drop in the ocean, like a "small village" in a huge country.

Now the power established by Zhou Ming has just occupied half of this "small village".

If you want to expand your interests, expand your momentum and influence in the future, you must at least have a "base" and "platform".

The platform of half a village is definitely not enough.

There is no base with integrated internal resources, no ability to expand externally at all, and some energy has to be devoted to dealing with threats within the village.

Out of long-term considerations, Zhou Ming will definitely try his best to integrate this small Zhongyuanzhou into a force and a core.

And remove all hidden dangers.

but……

It is almost impossible to take down Guanglei Mountain in a peaceful way.

Because Guangleishan is very strong and has a lot of cards, it is impossible to give in and compromise before suffering a major loss.

so what should I do now?
Still have to find a way to weaken Guanglei Mountain's strength.

How to weaken?

It's the same as dealing with Chixingshan: take the bottom from the bottom.

Do everything possible to take down those mortal cities controlled by Guanglei Mountain, it is best to take them all, and hollow out the foundation of Guanglei Mountain.

only……

The Guanglei Mountain Sect has a history of more than ten thousand years. Due to the large number of disciples, the control over the mortal city is also very strong. In recent years, it has increased the emphasis on the mortal city. There are more elders and disciples under it, so they can drill The loophole is very small, and the defense is Wan Chengguo's routine.

but……

The loophole left by Guanglei Mountain has become smaller, but it doesn't mean that Wancheng Kingdom can't exploit it.

On the contrary, in the process of strengthening the management of the mortal world, Guang Leishan made many fatal mistakes.

As a result, the foundation of Guanglei Mountain's rule in the mortal world may be easily shaken.

Night Breeze, the head of the Intelligence Bureau, took out a report describing the mortal situation under the rule of Guanglei Mountain.

"The way they govern cities is not by making laws, but by sheer force."

"If there is a city owner of a certain city who does not obey the order of the immortal, does not provide the specified amount of supplies, and does not complete the tasks assigned by the immortal on time, the waiting for these city owners will generally be severely punished, ranging from scolding to severe punishment. In the worst case, they will even be killed and replaced with a new city lord."

"For example, Guanglei Mountain issued the task of 'training 91 troops in each city within three years' five years ago. Among the 33 cities, 33 cities were not completed due to various reasons. Afterwards, 26 of the [-] city owners were killed. The city was terrified."

"Arbitrary punishment and frequent killing are only one aspect. In the economic field, Guanglei Mountain wants to learn from our Wancheng Country, build an economic community in the mortal world, develop agriculture, build factories and mines, overhaul roads, and implement a common plan for a hundred cities... These plans are very important. Nice, but..."

"Guanglei Mountain does not have the foundation of Wancheng Kingdom, and does not pay attention to talents in the fields of industry, agriculture, business management, let alone cultivate... In the eyes of their immortals, mortal engineers, scientific researchers, skilled workers and government officials, They are nothing but ants, they will not pay attention at all, but will be discriminated against and bullied in every possible way."

"That's why their economic community plan failed. Many cities went bankrupt, their products couldn't be sold, and roads lacked funds for construction. The supplies that needed to be supplied to Guanglei Mountain had all increased significantly."

"This has made all the cities in the mortal world miserable, but the burden is still increasing. The plan to train [-] troops in each city has pushed some cities to the brink of collapse."

"Some cities are very dissatisfied and want to resist, but how can mortals be opponents of immortals?"

"Don't talk about resistance, even if you show dissatisfaction even a little bit, you will be killed by the immortal."

"Even in some cities, Guanglei Mountain's resident disciples harmed one side, committed crimes, and no one can stop them. The locals dared to be angry but did not dare to speak."

In addition, when Guanglei Mountain invaded Qingyun Mountain to the west and occupied more than a dozen mortal cities, the military discipline was bad, the damage was serious, and there were even local massacres, not to mention wealth and beauties, which made their eyes shine.

Therefore, Guanglei Mountain's rule in the mortal world was full of resentment and dissatisfaction, which gave birth to countless hatred and unwillingness.

Most of the 91 mortal cities are like time bombs.

Did no one in Guanglei Mountain notice this problem?
Of course there is, and not just one person.

For example, Ye Kong, the elder of the Seventh Mountain Foreign Affairs, discovered this problem many times, reminded the suzerain to pay attention, and asked to strengthen the restraint on the mortal disciples sent down,
But... nothing worked.

Ants are killed if they don't obey, what are the restrictions?
As a lofty immortal, how many would care about the feelings of mortals?If the ants don't work obediently, how dare they rebel?

Therefore, the truths such as "water can carry a boat can also capsize it" and "people's hearts are very important" have no concept at all in the minds of the upper-level immortals of Guanglei Mountain.

If someone says this kind of truth, they will find it ridiculous and think you are crazy.

What is popular support in the face of absolute power?
So this became the best entry point for Wan Chengguo to implement the plan of "drawing salary from the bottom" of Guanglei Mountain.

As for how to get rid of the bottom line and how to win the hearts of the people, for Wan Chengguo, it is as easy as pediatrics.

In terms of specific measures, starting from the border between the two sides, for the oppressed Guanglei Mountain mortal city, if your economic development lags behind and you live in poverty, I will lead you to develop, provide guidance and help, and help you get rid of poverty and become rich.

If your city is oppressed by the immortals, suffering unspeakably, and full of resentment, I will send elite monks to avenge you, to advocate justice, and to prevent possible revenge from Guanglei Mountain.

Not only that, after joining Wancheng Kingdom, there will be more support and benefits waiting for them, and they will start to live a beautiful life of freedom, wealth, happiness and no oppression.

From this point of view, Wan Chengguo is simply a "liberator" of justice, kindness, and light.

"Just follow this plan, and try to win all the mortal cities controlled by Guanglei Mountain within three to five years!"

At the meeting, Zhou Ming made a final decision.
