Chapter 435: Cleanup

Genius remembers this site address in one second: []The fastest update! No ads!
The dividends of war can make people crazy.
This is very obvious in the Qi army.
Qi people, when they needed to fight desperately earlier, were not at all active enough. However, when the war had already declared most of the victory and the Wu state was almost destroyed, they showed unspeakable enthusiasm.
And this kind of enthusiasm is not in combat, but in grabbing the spoils.
Battle achievements are of course very important to them, but it is far from being the most important thing. What is the goal of obtaining military exploits? It is for profit.
After all, in an environment like Qi, the family is powerful. They want to be promoted in the court within their country. The credit is the icing on the cake, but the more important thing is their origin.
But right now, after the collapse of Wu's army, the vast territory of Wu that can be regarded as almost a request for them is a direct benefit at hand.
In this case, the first option for these aristocratic families is often to get the things that should be obtained first.
This situation appeared in almost all the Qi family. Even including many families of the Qi State who had been submissive to the Lu clan, they were impatient.
Lu Chaohe and Weiyun were very angry about this. Non-observance of orders, loose discipline, and a tendency to lose organization after the war, as a commander in command, will definitely be very upset.
But the more angry one is Lu Qing.
This is almost intolerable for him.
For him, attacking Wu and even unifying the world was not for his own desire for power, nor was it for unification. He hopes to bring all the power of the nine immortal kingdoms under the jurisdiction of the system, and can deploy the power of the nine kingdoms in a unified way, that is to deal with those time fragments, by the way, integrate the power of the entire world, and deal with the invasion of gods and demons.
The goal of setting off a war is to serve it.
It is inevitable that people will die in war, and this is also an unavoidable sacrifice and price. However, after the war was basically won, Lu Qing hoped to retain Wu's vitality as much as possible, and after he took over, he could play its role as soon as possible.
And what these Qi family members are doing right now does not fit this rule at all.
If they really let them go on like this and leave him with a tattered state of Wu, what are they going to do?
Of course, it can be rebuilt, but the cost is too great.
Lu Qing was furious, and sent a message to Lu Chaohe, and clearly sent a letter to Weiyun.
After the two of them got the signal, they didn't have any hesitation, and just started to act according to Lu Qing's intention.
This is also a very good opportunity to integrate the power of Qi.
In the early days, there were two main reasons for not doing this. One was that the situation in Qi was relatively stable at the time, and there was concern that major moves would damage this stability; the other was that Lu Chaohe could become the emperor. , Relying on the strong pressure of Lu Qing's strength, Lu himself has no foundation in Qi State, and there are not many supporters.
But now, the situation is different.
First of all, it is in a state of war. In this state, it is more convenient to do some extraordinary things; in addition, Lu Chaohe has been the emperor for more than ten years. Let’s not talk about how strong his wrists are. He is backed by Yan Guo as a foreign aid, but Yun, a master of law, has directly supported him in Qi all the year round. The most important thing is that he has the reputation of Lu Qing. It is the existence of his own father, who can do anything easily.
Even, he doesn't need to do too much. Among Qi's family, people who are aware of current affairs will naturally turn to him.
His position is much more stable than when he first came out.
The two reasons combined were enough for Lu Chaohe, with Wei Yun's support, to do something that was not easy to do before.
In the final analysis, it is nothing more than two words: Eliminate dissidents.
Be obedient, stay, do things well, say what is what. The discipline and organization that should be possessed are indispensable. Otherwise, losing status, being broken up, or even losing the entire family completely, is just a matter of one sentence.
Of course there were many rebels, but what followed was very suppression and cleansing. On the one hand, it was the support of Weiyun. On the other hand, the thousands of senior monks from Yan State brought by Lan Nuo Xing were all Lu Chao and solid backing.
During this wave of cleaning, Lu Chaohe was really not soft-hearted.
Within seven days, there were more than four thousand Qi monks who were sentenced to death. This number is almost equal to the total number of deaths of the Qi army on the Yangzhou line.
Moreover, the number of senior monks is very large. Even in a sense, the main target of this cleansing operation carried out by Lu Chaohe was placed on the leaders of the clan who were disobedient, who liked to act in violation of the law before, and who performed very badly on the battlefield. .
And under such cruel and suppression of counter-revolution, the rest of the people naturally didn't dare to talk more nonsense. Under fear, they could only obediently obey.
In fact, Lu Qing did not want to engage in this kind of terrorist politics. But sometimes, the problem will not be solved if it doesn't come so brutally.
Then long-term pain is worse than short-term pain.
Of course, this matter is not without side effects ~EbookFREE.me~ The news is transmitted back to Qi country, which may cause some uproar.
For this reason, an army of the Kingdom of Yan, the main body consisting of a small number of Qingfengmen monks and most of the Yunxiaozong monks, hurried south and entered the territory of Qi, and obeyed the order of the Empress Kong Anyang of Qi, ready to suppress the country. Happening.
Speaking of Kong Anyang, Lu Qing also trusted this daughter-in-law.
She obviously cherishes the throne that was completely impossible to have a relationship with herself. She is also very smart and can realize that even if the Kong clan is really restored, not only does she have nothing to do with the throne, she is afraid that her life will be hard to guarantee.
In the past ten years, she has cooperated with Lu Chaohe very well, and in her mentality, she has also moved closer to the Lu family very clearly. In the meantime, she went back to Yuyan Mountain with Lu Chaohe to meet Lu Qing.
And this, from the list of family members in the system, it can also be reflected that her loyalty is not low.
This time, with the help of Yan's army as a foreign aid, although Qi's domestic situation has become very tense, and there have been some real disturbances in some places, it can still be suppressed by Kong Anyang.
As for the other thing, there is no way at all.
The core of the storm lies in the Qi state army that is attacking here. At the moment, the Qi Army, which is still at war in nature, has undergone such a major internal change, and there is definitely no way to continue fighting.
There is no need, and there are enough results for the moment. It is also a wise thing to postpone the pace of the offense, turn to the defensive, and solve the internal problems first, while consolidating the obtained results.
And this so-called turning to the defensive, of course, is not the Wu people who have collapsed and are unable to organize again.
The goal they want to guard is the Chu people who are staring at them in the west.
