Chapter 2163 Respect the Emperor, Shinmu Innovation!

Li Yao closed his eyes, analyzed the current state of the empire based on the experience and lessons he had learned from the Star Federation, and murmured, "It's so lucrative, these pigs are trying to force people to jump over the wall!"

"That's right, the great nobles and clans headed by the four major elector families really underestimate the power of others. This is to force everyone into their opposing camp."

Looking at Li Yao's eyes, Li Linghai changed from "approval" to "surprise", and said, "Usually, their actions may be right, because any small and medium-sized sect, deep space fleet drifting between the stars, or It is absolutely impossible for the lord of a remote world on the border of the empire to compete with any of the four major elector families.

"The empire is too vast and boundless, and any two Great Thousand Worlds may be hundreds of light years apart. It is difficult for the strong, warlords, and young officers at the grassroots level scattered in various places to unite together to oppose the great nobles and soldiers in the center of the Star Sea. door valve.

"However, the last decade of war has changed all that.

"The elites of countless worlds jumped from all over the stars and seas to the forefront of the fierce battle between the empire and the Holy League. There, they fought side by side, shared life and death, and sometimes marched forward together, or tried their best to save each other's lives. The young military officers and the newly-rising strong men have forged a profound friendship.

"Also, in such a large-scale strategic counter-offensive, it is impossible for any army in the Great Thousand World to fight alone. Often two or three, three or four or even a dozen fleets will fight together, and there will inevitably be a' Joint Operations Command Center'.

"The general is outside, and the king's order is not subject to it. On the rapidly changing battlefield, many situations have to rely on the independent judgment and orders of the frontline commanders. The joint operations command center is expanding day by day. For the first time, the 'Imperial Army' has its own brain. Blood vessels and neural networks, awaken to their own power!

"What's more, the big nobles and clansmen are afraid of casualties, and deliberately let young grassroots officers, newly-rising powerhouses, and warlords from remote worlds take the lead and gnaw hard bones. Of course, it is true that the strength of the latter is greatly consumed, but it is also true. The strongest, most dangerous, and most terrifying people among them were screened out by means of cruel elimination.

"The principle of being washed away by big waves and tempered thousands of times is always the truth of cultivation.

"In the arduous war, countless middle and low-level cultivators unfortunately fell and turned into cannon fodder that disappeared with the wind; but there were also people who grew up rapidly, accumulated military exploits, experience and prestige in battle after battle, and became heroes of the new era , and realized his situation, his chest was full of anger and ambition!

"When such an army that has just finished more than ten years of brutal wars, is filled with patriotism, has extremely rich combat experience, and has an effective command system, it is faced with being split up again by major families. The glorious sword that fought for civilization has once again been reduced to the servants, minions and lackeys of the nobles, and even for the benefit of the great nobles, it will meet with the compatriots who were fighting side by side yesterday. What do you think this army will do? What would young military officers, who are full of vigor, are as gorgeous as cherry blossoms, and are proud of human civilization, think?

"Hehe, perhaps from the moment the empire and the Holy League started the war, a revolution that was destined to shatter the stars had already begun.

"Looking at today's empire, the frenzy under the deep sea has gathered, from the imperial capital to the frontier, from the cloud world to the floating world, from the power cabin of the flagship of the great nobleman, to the assault company of the small warlord crystal armor battle group, a wide range The alliance is being established at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon we will be able to send out our roar that will shake the three thousand worlds!"

The Empress of the Empire punched her fist hard, revealing the expressions Li Yao had seen on the faces of Xiao Xuance, Lu Zui, Zhou Hengdao and the demon Mo Xuan.

This is a power that has nothing to do with realm.

Even if Li Yao's heart really contracted violently, it was not because of Li Linghai's power over Huashen, but because he was shocked by some kind of power that was more terrifying than Huashen.

He knew a long time ago that a peerless master who has cultivated to the level of Li Linghai would never be able to fight for such a vulgar goal as "struggling for power and profit".

But he didn't expect that Li Linghai's ambition was so big.

Sure enough, as she herself said, she wanted to "save the empire"!

She did indeed tell her brother Li Lingfeng, from the standpoint of the four major elector families, that she wanted to "destroy the empire"!

Li Yao took a deep breath, he must not show weakness at this time.

He stared into Li Linghai's eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "Can I know in advance what this 'roar' is about?"

The Empress of the Empire stared deeply at Li Yao, as if she wanted to completely smash the armor on his eyeballs, and peer into the deepest part of his soul.

After observing for a full ten seconds, the queen smiled.

"A true immortal cultivator is never afraid to be honest about his way."

Li Linghai said softly, "What's more, for a powerhouse like you, no sweet words can fool you for long. If we can really cooperate, I hope that we can be completely open and honest with each other, and understand each other's ideas and ambitions clearly. Otherwise, it is better to break up and part ways as soon as possible.

"After all, if two God Transformation powerhouses in an organization still intrigue, suspect and guard against each other, there will be too much internal friction, right?

"This is the reason why I am willing to confess to you from the beginning to the end. Since we have talked about this, why hide the most important sentence?

"Our roar is very simple, with eight words, 'Respect the emperor and fight against rebellion, revolutionize the martial arts'!"

Li Yao: "Uh..."

He understood the first four words, but what the hell is "Shenwu"?

My mind turned, and I instantly understood that "Shenwu" is the reign title of His Majesty the current emperor.

The real human empire followed the ancient law. In addition to the thousand-year imperial history, each emperor had a different year number when he ascended the throne.

The reign name is different from the posthumous title. Both the folk and the government recognize that the reign name is used to honor the current emperor.

Generally speaking, an emperor uses only one year name throughout his life.

After all, the "natural lifespan" of the puppet emperor in the center of the power vortex is often not too long. It is almost 30 to 50 years, 70 to 80 years, and a hundred years or so.

However, in case of any major event that affects the entire empire, some emperors will use the second reign title.

For example, Li Linghai's husband, the current imperial majesty, had the title of "Tianzheng" when he ascended the throne, so he could be honored as "Tianzheng Emperor".

But twenty years ago, the empire's war machine was in full swing, and all the fleets were gearing up, preparing to launch a strategic counterattack against the Holy League, and it was a shame.

In order to motivate the soldiers and the people, it was changed to "Shenwu" to symbolize the prosperity of the empire's martial arts. The original "Tianzheng Emperor" was logically renamed "Shenwu Emperor".

This year is the 1079th year of the imperial calendar, and also the 18th year of Shenwu. The meaning of "Shenwu innovation" is self-evident.

Seeing Li Linghai's sincerity and fanaticism, a thorn protruded from Li Yao's tongue, and he couldn't help but said, "'Respect the emperor to seek rebellion'? This 'rebellion', I know, is naturally the four major electors and other nobles and We are rich, but we don't know which 'Emperor' we honor? Is it the 'Emperor' of His Majesty the Emperor, or the 'Emperor' of His Royal Highness the Empress?"

Li Linghai focused his eyes and looked at him coldly

Li Yao didn't budge, and continued: "Both Li Lingfeng and Wu Yinglan said that Emperor Shenwu, who appears majestic on the surface and whose achievements are as close as his ancestors', is actually just your puppet. I don't know if they exaggerated the truth, but one thing is certain. .

"If Her Royal Highness really discovered the 'Ling Xiao Realm' and obtained the huge inheritance of the emperor thousands of years ago, I'm afraid... she would never share it with your husband, the current Emperor Shenwu, right?"

Li Linghai stared at Li Yao for a while, then slowly withdrew his bayonet-like gaze, and said indifferently: "If you, like Li Lingfeng that stupid pig, think that I'm going to be some kind of 'Queen of the Generation' who dominates Xinghai, then it's unavoidable. Think of me too low.

"Don't talk about 'a generation of empresses', even if they are stronger than the 'emperor', the supreme lord of human civilization ten thousand years ago, so what, today, ten thousand years later, is it still a handful of loess and a pile of dead bones?

"Since I rely on the inheritance of the emperor to have everything today, how can I not see through such a simple truth?

"Believe it or not, I have no interest in being empress or supreme dictator of any kind.

"But I'm very interested in building a strong central government.

"Empress, emperor or emperor, after all, must die.

"However, a strong, efficient, and clean central government may lead all mankind to continue to march forward bravely in the dark star sea and ride the wind and waves in the next ten thousand or one hundred thousand years!

"Many ills of today's empire, including the unbearable suffering of the people you cultivators, are all due to the fact that the central government is too weak, which makes the local hegemony such as the four major electors take advantage of the situation to rise, stir up trouble, and the internal friction is getting worse. Completely mismatched.

"If you want to solve all the problems that you and I don't want to see, a strong central government is the premise and foundation.

"As for the external form of this big government, whether it is His Majesty the Emperor who is wise and mighty but authoritarian, or the parliament under the constitutional monarchy system, I don't care. Many times, I even prefer the latter.

"Yes, the 'emperor' we want to respect is neither the emperor nor the empress, and of course it is not the 'empress'. You can understand it as the 'imperial power', which is a powerful central government. Or the powerful parliament with the empress as the symbol, just the spiritual leader, and the powerful imperial army under the leadership of the powerful parliament!

"This powerful central government with His Majesty the Emperor as the spiritual leader will absorb elites from all levels of the empire and star fields, including middle and low-level cultivators and remote world leaders, to protect the interests of everyone to the greatest extent. Controlled by the Great Elector's family, the cancerous "Imperial Senate" entrenched in the imperial capital "Extreme Heaven Realm, Tianjixing" is completely different!"
