Because the wars in this world are different from those in ancient times. This is a world of high martial arts, and it is the high-end combat power of both sides that determines the situation on the battlefield.

As for ordinary people, in the face of wars, most of them went to big cities, or sneaked into the mountains with food on their backs, to protect themselves and survive.The war in Nanhai County that lasted for more than half a year proved this point.

Lu Qianshan nodded.

"That's right, that's exactly the case. But what Lu said is not false. In less than half a year, the entire Jiujiang County will become a dead place!"

"The next place to die is Dongting County!"

……

Chapter 495 Why did the emperor rebel?

Hearing what Lu Qianshan said with such certainty, Xiao Yi felt a little suspicious. If what he thought was correct, if Lu Qianshan could call it a dead place, it meant that the real dead place had no survivors.

How could it be possible that hundreds of millions of people in Jiujiang County could all die?

If the King of Jiujiang killed all the people, even if he succeeded in defeating the imperial rebellion, what would be the use of a desolate Jiujiang County?

But judging from the expression on Lu Qianshan's face and the caution in speaking, there should be no doubt about it!

Then this...

Xiao Yi looked at Lu Qianshan, and was about to ask a question when Lu Tianshan said leisurely: "There are eleven counties in Jiujiang County. As of today, three counties have been killed. In the three counties, there are only a hundred people left!"

"Why? Really?!"

Xiao Yi was dumbfounded, and stood there dumbfounded, his face full of disbelief and unthinkable.

Although he expected that the situation might be more serious, he didn't expect it to deteriorate to such a degree...

The land of three counties has a radius of thousands of miles. The population density of this world is much higher than imagined. Even if Xiao Yi has never been to Jiujiang County, based on his understanding of Changsha County and Nanhai County.Roughly estimated, the people living in these three counties of Jiujiang County must have as many as tens of millions, or even 3000 to [-] million people.

But now Lu Qianshan said that there are only a hundred people left from these 3000 million people!

!

Xiao Yi's eyelids twitched, and he forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, although he knew that with Lu Qianshan's character and behavior, he didn't even bother to tell such a lie.

But he still asked: "Lord Lu, is this serious? Has there been an investigation and evidence collection?"

Facing Xiao Yi's suspicion, Lu Qianshan showed no displeasure on his face, and he nodded slowly.

"I personally brought people to investigate the three counties!"

This sentence alone fully demonstrates that this matter is undoubted and absolutely true.

Xiao Yi froze on the spot, pondered for a long time, and then asked in a deep voice: "The situation in Jiujiang County has deteriorated to this point? Hasn't the imperial court been constantly dispatching experts and sending troops? Why did it cause such a tragedy? Could it be that someone was timid?" Slack in the war? But it’s not enough, Mr. Lu, you have been suppressing the rebellion in Jiujiang County..."

Xiao Yi didn't finish the remaining words, but Lu Qianshan already understood.

Seeing the anger on Xiao Yi's face and the questioning in his words, Lu Qianshan showed a wry smile.

He shook his head, looked at the mountains in the distance and fell into a moment of silence.

It's been a long time!

"Do you know why the chaos in Jiujiang County can't be put down for a long time?"

Ok?

Xiao Yi raised his brows, there was something in his words, he thought for a while and asked, "Is the King of Jiujiang already so strong?"

"The King of Jiujiang is very strong!"

Lu Qianshan nodded and said.

After a pause, he added: "Jiujiang King is now a first-rank Grandmaster, and he still has half a hundred Grandmasters in his hands!"

Xiao Yi's eyes flickered. There are half a hundred masters who are first-rank masters. They are much stronger than Xiang Jianghe, the former king of the South China Sea.It's no wonder that Xiang Jianghe, a rising star, has been wiped out for several months. The King of Jiujiang, who was the first to raise the flag to rebel, is still very good at jumping, and he also took Dongting County into his arms.

It turned out to be a first-rank master, which is a bit too powerful. Could it be that the King of Jiujiang is an unborn martial arts genius?

As for the more than 50 strong masters at the Grandmaster level, Xiao Yi was not surprised. Although these Grandmasters are rare and precious, if they are placed in the whole world, there are actually quite a few of them.

After all, where the population base is placed, there are quite a few ones in a million.With the status of the King of Jiujiang, as well as financial resources and resources in charge, it is actually not that difficult to recruit a large number of master-level subordinates to serve him, as long as the benefits are sufficient.

……

Although the King of Jiujiang is very powerful, there are also a lot of people and resources from the imperial court. How can the situation be corrupted to this point?

Xiao Yi's heart moved, and he asked: "Could it be that the chaos in Jiujiang County has continued to this day, and there is something hidden behind it?"

Lu Qianshan glanced at him approvingly and nodded.

Sure enough, Xiao Yi's eyes flickered, and he was thinking secretly...

While Xiao Yi was deep in thought, Lu Qianshan said: "The people in the three counties are not only dead, but there are no bones left!"

"The King of Jiujiang refined...all those people...to..."

Refined!

!

A gleam flashed in Xiao Yi's eyes, and a strong murderous aura swept out from him, soaring into the sky. In an instant, above the top of Sanjiang Mountain, there was a sea of ​​clouds and mist.

"Boom!

! ”

There was a sudden thunder, lightning and thunder.

……

Xiao Yi suddenly turned his head and stared at Lu Qianshan firmly.

"Really refined?!"

"It's absolutely true, otherwise, how can you explain that tens of millions of people have no bones left?"

"Desperate... Desperate..."

"This tmd is such a lunatic!

! ”

Xiao Yi couldn't control the anger in his heart anymore, he cursed loudly, the internal energy in his dantian was violently tumbling, and his bulging clothes rattled.

"It's simply unreasonable!

! ”

"Jiujiang King did this?" Xiao Yi looked at Lu Qianshan and asked in a deep voice.

Lu Qianshan nodded.

"Hmph, then let me ask you why all the people sent by the imperial court have gone. Are they all dead? What does the fight for world hegemony have to do with those ordinary poor people? Why can't they let them live!"

"The duke doesn't know. It is precisely because of refining those common people that King Jiujiang's martial arts cultivation can be improved so fast, thousands of miles a day. Otherwise, how could he be a first-rank master?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yi suddenly understood, no wonder the King of Jiujiang's cultivation was so high, it turned out that he had cultivated the forbidden technique.

He couldn't help but think of the Blood Demon Gate in Changsha County, and the Blood Demon Sutra, which is also a taboo technique. By refining people, absorbing the essence, blood, bones, spinal cord, etc. of the human body, transforming them into the ultimate Pure energy, thus improving one's martial arts cultivation base.

Unexpectedly, the majestic royal family also practiced this kind of taboo technique, which is really a great irony!

"Then why not stop it?"

Lu Qianshan said with a wry smile: "The Duke doesn't know that at the beginning of the Jiujiang King's rebellion, the reason why the court suppressed the news of the Jiujiang King's rebellion was actually to cover up the three counties that had become dead. The Jiujiang King was fully prepared , this is how it started..."

"The king of Jiujiang has already achieved great power, and his wings are full. Now he can only suppress and resist. If we say that Mount Tai will crush him, it will be extremely difficult!"

Xiao Yi nodded his head in agreement, but he was a little puzzled...

"Then I don't know Mr. Lu, what is the so-called coming here today? Could it be that you want me to help you?"

Xiao Yi thought about it, and only this possibility could make sense.Otherwise, he really couldn't imagine what Lu Qianshan was looking for him for.

The King of Jiujiang is now so powerful that the counter-insurgency army sent by the imperial court can't settle it. Isn't it natural that he needs to find foreign aid?

So Xiao Yi directly pointed out that with his relationship with Lu Qianshan, he would be willing to help without Lu Qianshan asking.

But to Xiao Yi's surprise, Lu Qianshan shook his head and denied it.

"The Duke misunderstood, Lu did not come here to ask for help!"

Xiao Yi frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty Lu, if you have something to say, you can say it clearly, so you don't have to keep it up!"

He was already a little impatient at this moment. This Lu Qianshan talked in a cloud of mist, turned around, and didn't show his intentions at the end. Isn't this tempting?

Lu Qianshan laughed, and said leisurely: "This Lu is actually here to deliver a letter to the Duke!"

"What letter? And for whom?"

Unexpectedly, Lu Qianshan did not answer, and the conversation changed.

"Actually, if the King of Jiujiang only had these methods, the situation would not be as bad as it is today. Although the King of Jiujiang is very strong now, the court is not a vegetarian. It is impossible to support the entire court with a single county. How long, although the Grandmaster is very strong, he is not invincible!"

Xiao Yi naturally knew this, but he was more interested in Lu Qianshan, what exactly he wanted to do here.Since Lu Qianshan mentioned this, Xiao Yi had no choice but to ask along: "Then why?"

Lu Qianshan looked intently, and said, "Behind King Jiujiang, there is a big mountain supporting him!"

"That's why this war has spread so far. If there is no external force, it may continue for several years. Even Dongting County is only the second..."

Dongting County is the second one. Does this mean that other counties will join in the rebellion in the future?

Xiao Yi's heart moved slightly, but he was not sure. He didn't ask any more questions, but just watched Lu Qianshan quietly, waiting for his explanation.After all, it was Lu Qianshan who came to him, not him, the initiative was still in his hands.

Sure enough, Lu Qianshan sighed, with complex expressions on his face, including anger, unwillingness, regret, and regret.This made Xiao Yi's doubts deepen, and he secretly guessed, is the truth complicated?

"Duke, who do you think is the biggest mountain in the world of Great Chu?"

This meaningful sentence echoed softly in Xiao Yi's ears, but it exploded in his mind like a thunderbolt.

In the world of Great Chu, who is the biggest mountain?

Is that even a question?

emperor!

The emperor is the biggest mountain in the world!

Xiao Yi naturally wouldn't think that the mountains mentioned by Lu Qianshan were mountains.

Thinking back to what Lu Qianshan said just now...

The King of Jiujiang has a mountain supporting him!

Xiao Yi felt as if he was struck by lightning, isn't this a bit too nonsense, too ridiculous!

!

Will the King of Jiujiang be supported by the emperor?The emperor supported the rebellion of the King of Jiujiang?

So the question is, why did the emperor rebel?

He is already the emperor, the world already belongs to him, why would he rebel?

However, if this is the truth, it can explain why the expression on Lu Qianshan's face is so complicated.

"Master Lu, isn't this a little ridiculous?"

Lu Qianshan smiled wryly, nodded slowly, and said softly: "It's ridiculous, but the fact is so, what can I do?"

Xiao Yi's face was a bit dignified, and there was deep anger. The emperor should protect the people under his rule, why should he be this butcher?

"What happened in the palace, why did the emperor do this?"

"Duke, the emperor is also a human being, and he also desires greater power and a longer lifespan. What can't be done for these?"

"Lord Lu, I always thought that you were the emperor's confidant, but I didn't expect that I was wrong, and my thinking was too simple... Hehe..."

Xiao Yi laughed at himself, then continued after a pause: "Lord Lu, you are here today to intercede for the emperor, and you want me to stay out of Jiujiang County's affairs?"

"If that's the case, then there's no need. I'm not the emperor of the Great Chu. I don't care what I do. If he wants to kill his people, I have nothing to do with it. As long as I don't have Nanhai County's ideas!"

At the end, Xiao Yi's face was solemn and solemn.It's not the time for him to travel to this world just now, whether it's his mind, experience, or personality, he has changed a lot from before.

In the past, he had blood in his heart, justice in his chest, and he wanted to be a knight.But now he has become more realistic. Knights are often tired and miserable, and have not yet ended well, just like heroes.

All heroes do not end well, they are all embarrassing, poor characters.He doesn't want to be that kind of person, his current ideal is very simple, that is to live well, live well!

That's enough!

……

Hearing Xiao Yi's vaguely warning words, Lu Qianshan did not get angry, his face was calm, and there was a faint smile on his face.
