The dividends of war can make people crazy.

This point is very obvious in the army of Qi State.

Qi people, when they had to fight desperately earlier, were not active enough at all. However, at a time when most of the victories could be declared in the war and the state of Wu was on the verge of perishing, they showed indescribable enthusiasm.

And this kind of enthusiasm is not in combat, but in snatching spoils.

Military exploits are of course very important to them, but they are far from being the most important thing. What is the goal of gaining military exploits? It is for profit.

After all, in an environment like the Qi State, the aristocratic family is powerful. If they want to be promoted in the court of the 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, which can be regarded as almost whatever they ask for, is a benefit that is directly at their fingertips.

In this case, the first choice of these aristocratic families is often to get the things that should be obtained first, and then talk about it first.

This situation happened to almost all Qi family. Even many of the Qi family who are already obedient to the Lu family are also very excited.

Lu Chaohe and Weiyun were very angry about this. Disobedience to orders, loose discipline, and a tendency to lose organization after a war, as a commander, will definitely be very uncomfortable.

But the one who was more angry was Lu Qing.

It was almost intolerable to him.

For him, attacking Great Wu, and even unifying the world, was not for his own desire for power, nor was it for the sake of unification. He hopes to bring all the power of the Nine Immortal Kingdoms under the jurisdiction of the system, and to centrally deploy the power of the Nine Kingdoms. That is to deal with those fragments of time and integrate the power of the entire world by the way to deal with the invasion of gods and demons.

The goal of starting a war is also to serve this.

In war, death is inevitable, and this is also an unavoidable sacrifice and price. However, after the basic victory of the war, what Lu Qing hopes is to preserve Wu's vitality as much as possible, and to play a role as soon as possible after taking over.

And what these Qi family are doing now does not meet this requirement at all.

If you let them go on like this and leave him a dilapidated state of Wu, what are you going to do?

Of course, it can be rebuilt, but the cost is too great.

Lu Qing was furious, and sent a voice transmission to Lu Chaohe, and clearly sent a letter to Weiyun.

After the two of them got the signal, they didn't hesitate any more, and started to act according to Lu Qing's intention.

This is also a very good opportunity to integrate Qi's power.

In the early days, there were two main reasons for not doing this. One was that the domestic situation in Qi State was relatively stable at that time, and I was worried that a big move would damage this stability; the other was that Lu Chaohe was able to become the emperor. , relying on the strong pressure of Lu Qing's strength, the Lu family itself has no foundation in Qi State, and there are not many supporters.

But now, the situation is different.

First of all, the present is 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 wrist is, relying on Yan Guo as foreign aid, You Weiyun, a master of law, has directly supported him in Qi State all year round, the most important thing is that Lu Qing’s reputation is already considered It is the father who has dominated the whole life, and everything he does will be easy.

Even, he doesn't need to do too much. Among the aristocratic families of Qi, there will naturally be people who know current affairs and vote for him.

His position is much more stable than when he first came out.

The combination of the two reasons is enough to make Lu Chaohe, with the support of Weiyun, do some things that were not easy to do before.

In the final analysis, it is nothing more than four words: eliminate dissidents.

Obedient, stay, do things well, say what is what. The discipline and organization that should be there are indispensable. Otherwise, losing status, being dismantled, and even the entire family completely losing power is just a matter of words.

Of course there were many rebels, but what followed was very bloody suppression and cleansing. On the one hand, there is Weiyun's support, and on the other hand, the thousands of senior monks from Yan Kingdom brought by Lan Nuoxing are all solid backing of Lu Chaohe.

In this wave of cleansing, Lu Chaohe really didn't show any mercy.

Within seven days, more than 4,000 Qi monks were sentenced to death. This number can almost catch up with the total number of deaths on the Yangzhou defense line of the previous Qi army.

Moreover, the number of senior monks among them is very large. In a sense, the main target of this cleansing operation carried out by Lu Chaohe is on the leaders of those disobedient families who used to like to obey others and behaved very poorly on the battlefield. .

And under such cruel and bloody suppression of counter-revolutionaries, the remaining people naturally did not dare to talk nonsense, and under fear, they could only obey obediently.

In fact, Lu Qing didn't want to engage in this kind of terror politics. But sometimes, if you don't come and be ruthless, you won't be able to solve the problem.

Then the long-term pain is not as good as the short-term pain.

Of course, this matter is not without side effects.

If the news spreads back to the country of Qi, it may cause some uproar.

For this reason, an army of Yan State, mainly composed of a small number of monks from Qingfengmen and most monks from Yunxiaozong, went south quickly and entered the territory of Qi State. Happening.

Speaking of Kong Anyang, Lu Qing also had some trust in this daughter-in-law.

She obviously cherishes the throne that could never have anything to do with her. She is also very smart and can realize that even if the Kong family is really restored, not only will she not have anything to do with the throne, she may even lose her life.

In the past ten years, she has been very cooperative with Lu Chaohe, and she has also clearly moved closer to the Lu family in terms of mentality. In the middle, she went back to Yuyan Mountain with Lu Chaohe to meet Lu Qing.

And this can also be reflected from the fact that her loyalty is not low as seen in the system and the list of family members.

This time, with the help of Yan State's army as foreign aid, although Qi State's domestic situation became very tense for a time, and there were some real disturbances in some places, Kong Anyang could still suppress it.

As for the other thing, there is absolutely no way.

The core of the storm lies in the attacking army of Qi State. At present, the Qi army, which is essentially still in a state of war, must have no way to continue to fight under the circumstances of such a major internal change.

There is no need for that, the current harvest is already enough. It is also a wise thing to suspend the pace of offense, turn to the defensive, first solve internal problems, and at the same time consolidate the achievements.

And this so-called turn to the defensive is of course not for the Wu people who have collapsed and are unable to reorganize.

The target they want to defend is the people of Chu State who are watching eagerly in the west.
