After returning to Yizhou, Xiao Jingxuan returned to the palace and began to think about Fan Yang's future development.
Nowadays, Yan Di Xin Ding still needs to cultivate and recuperate, and Xiao Jingxuan does not want to participate in the Central Plains War prematurely. In the short term, it is not suitable for a big war.
Nowadays, in the entire Fanyang territory, there are only four places that really need to be defended: Pingzhou, Shenzhou, Baicheng, and Dazhou.
He now has almost 150,000 troops under his command. The number of troops is definitely sufficient, and it is not appropriate to expand the army for the time being.
Your next goal should be to focus on the Kingdom of Wei. The Kingdom of Wei is suitable for farming and has a large population. Although they are foreign countries, they share the same language.
No matter which aspect, conquering Weiguo is the most advantageous choice for Fan Yang.
With the strategy determined, his future focus should be moved away from Yingzhou and placed in Yizhou. After all, it is easier for him to control the overall situation here.
The next step is to start implementing the New Deal and crack down on the powerful. These policies can be implemented by copying Fan Yang's policies.
Ding Weiran is keeping an eye on the specific implementation of the New Deal. Xiao Jingxuan only needs to grasp the power of personnel appointment and removal and financial power. What's more, Zhao Gang is still keeping an eye on the following situation.
In order to better understand the situation of the New Deal in the country, Xiao Jingxuan established the Yushitai under the palace.
There are currently ten state capitals under Xiao Jingxuan's command. Therefore, Xiao Jingxuan established ten patrol censors to inspect local areas. On top of the patrol censors, he also established left and right censors to be responsible for the work of the entire censorship.
After establishing the Yushitai, Xiao Jingxuan began to stuff people into his James Mansion.
Although most of these two departments are new employees, it is precisely because of this that Xiao Jingxuan chose them. Because they have a clean foundation.
After that, Xiao Jingxuan began to reform the army.
First, there is the expansion of the Guards Battalion. The commanders of each battalion and each command can recommend some more potential soldiers to be trained in the Guards Battalion.
However, the upper limit of official position is team sergeant. Generals above the team sergeant level are not allowed to enter the guard camp.
With this expansion, Xiao Jingxuan plans to expand the personal guard camp to 5,000 people. These 5,000 people will be Xiao Jingxuan’s foundation in the future.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Jingxuan reorganized various places. Except for Pingzhou, Baicheng, Shenzhou, and Dazhou, patrol camps were set up in other states.
The number of soldiers is three thousand. The troops are drawn from each battalion. The patrol camp has one guerrilla person. From the fifth rank, he is responsible for the security and defense of the city. At the same time, more than 3,000 people were drawn from the trapped camp to form the Royal Forest Army, which is specially stationed in the city.
Royal Palace.
As for the number of troops in each battalion under his command, the number should not exceed 10,000. After solving these matters, Xiao Jingxuan was free.
In the following days, Xiao Jingxuan began to study martial arts or give guidance to his apprentices when he had nothing to do. His life was very relaxed.
On this day, Xiao Jingxuan was practicing martial arts in the palace. He saw a personal guard coming to report that there was a martial artist at the entrance of the palace asking to see him.
After seeing the visitor, Xiao Jingxuan was overjoyed.
"Master, why are you here?"
The person who came was none other than Xiao Jingxuan’s master Cui Xiwen. Cui Xiwen was seen staring at Xiao Jingxuan for a long time.
"Well, yes, now you are only one step away from the realm of the gods, but it is so close."
Hearing the master's words, Xiao Jingxuan was a little strange, so after welcoming the master to his seat, he asked: "Master, why are we so far away?"
"What do you think the realm of spiritual connection is?"
"Master, the realm of divine connection is naturally the sublimation of the spirit. It is an indescribable realm."
Cui Xiwen shook his head, looked at his disciples, and said, "If it's just sublimation, what's the difference between it and the innate realm?"
The master's words completely confused Xiao Jingxuan. He didn't know how to answer for a while.
Seeing Xiao Jingxuan like this, Cui Xiwen sighed and began to talk.
Under the innate realm, whether it is the physical realm or the pulse-forging realm, the Guiyi realm can be said to be the exercise of the physical body.
However, the Xiantian realm is also very different. The Xiantian realm is the development of one's own spiritual power. It allows warriors to use their own spiritual power to communicate with the world.
In the realm of spiritual connection, one needs to hone one's own soul so that one can overturn rivers and seas and fly with a sword.
After hearing the master's explanation, Xiao Jingxuan also fell into deep thought. Did he really understand it wrong?
"Master, this disciple feels that with his current strength, he can defeat the strong men in the early stage of the realm of gods. How could he practice wrongly?"
Seeing that Xiao Jingxuan was still stubborn, Cui Xiwen also sighed.
Then he directly used the sword with his right hand to attack Xiao Jingxuan.
Looking at the master's ordinary finger, Xiao Jingxuan found that he could not avoid it. He felt that the space around him was frozen, and time was getting slower and slower.
When the sword finger was about to hit Xiao Jingxuan, the master unexpectedly withdrew and put away the sword finger.
After a while, Xiao Jingxuan recovered from this state and looked at the master in disbelief.
It was at this moment that Xiao Jingxuan knew that he had really taken the wrong path.
Seeing Xiao Jingxuan's look of enlightenment, Cui Xiwen nodded happily.
"Master, what should the disciple do now?"
"You have now embarked on a wrong path. The best way now is to stop practicing again."
After hearing the master's suggestion, Xiao Jingxuan was silent for a long time. It can be said that Fan Yang's development now has a lot to do with Xiao Jingxuan's personal martial arts.
If he dissipated his kung fu by himself, it would probably have a big impact. It might even attract attacks from masters, so Xiao Jingxuan changed the topic.
"Master, why are you here this time?"
Seeing that Xiao Jingxuan had not made a decision, Cui Xiwen did not ask further questions.
"Do you know the origin of Wuji Sect?"
"Master, you only told me that you are the leader of the Yin Sect, and you didn't tell me anything else."
Cui Xiwen was paused when he heard the words, and could only slowly start to talk angrily.
It is rumored that the founder of Wuji Sect came from ancient times. Although he is not as profound as the founder of Sanyuan Guan, he was able to found Wuji Sect and pass down the Taoism in that era, which shows that he was also an outstanding person.
Xiao Jingxuan was also shocked when he heard that the origin of Wuji Sect was so long ago.
"Master, do gods really exist?"
"According to ancient books, gods existed in ancient times. However, due to the Great Destruction, the road to heaven was cut off, and the existence of gods became legends."
"The Great Destruction? Master, can you tell us in detail?"
"I don't know. The ancient books seem to be very secretive about what happened. They just call it the Great Destruction."
"Master, the Wei Dynasty was founded less than a hundred years ago and the country's fortunes are booming. Why did it...?"
Cui Xiwen stared at Xiao Jingxuan for a long time, thinking again and again, and murmured: "God's will plays tricks on people."
After a while, Cui Xiwen slowly told the whole story.
It turns out that the chaos in the world is the backlash of luck. When Xiao Jingxuan was born, he was pregnant with great luck. However, in order to stabilize the throne, Xiao Jingxuan's father, Emperor Jia'an, made great progress in martial arts and summoned many magicians to practice the magic of luck plunder.
Attribute Xiao Jingxuan’s luck to himself.
With Xiao Jingxuan's luck, Emperor Jia'an not only stabilized the court situation, but also made a breakthrough in one fell swoop and became the youngest person to reach the pinnacle of spiritual power.
However, as long as anything goes against the will of God, there must be a punishment from God. In order to pass on the punishment from God, Emperor Jia'an divided the deer among the clans. He used the cause and effect of dividing the deer to offset the punishment from plundering luck.
At that time, in order to allow Xiao Jingxuan to survive, Xiao Jingxuan's biological mother transferred her own luck to Xiao Jingxuan. At the same time, the old man also transferred his own luck to Xiao Jingxuan's body.
It is precisely because of these luck that Xiao Jingxuan can survive.
Hearing the master's explanation, Xiao Jingxuan's heart was filled with turmoil. It turned out to be like this.
But, is the way of luck really so magical? If you have strong luck, can you win easily?
Cui Xiwen also answered Xiao Jingxuan's question. Luck is not omnipotent, but without luck, nothing is possible.
For example, when practicing martial arts, those with strong luck will soon have the opportunity to make breakthroughs, while those with poor luck will be stuck in the original state for the rest of their lives, unable to make any progress. No matter how hard they try, it will be of no use.
After hearing the master's explanation, Xiao Jingxuan finally understood.
"Master, why did you come here?"
"In order to protect your Taoism, and at the same time, it is also to connect those people in the Xianzong. Although you are not very powerful now, because of your status as a disciple of the Yinzong, the Xianzong lineage is willing to support you."
After understanding this, Xiao Jingxuan asked someone to arrange room and board for the master, and then returned to the private room alone to think.
What should I do? These people really regard all the people in the world as ants. If they are not enlightened, everything is a castle in the air.
With a certain determination in his heart, Xiao Jingxuan decided to practice San Gong again. However, before practicing San Gong, he must be prepared.
Xiao Jingxuan summoned the civil and military forces under his command, and temporarily entrusted the government affairs to Ding Weiran on the grounds that he needed to break through the spiritual retreat. As for the military affairs, the four border towns were responsible for their respective generals.
As for the remaining troops, they were temporarily handed over to Huangfu Song and Hu Yanzhuo.
Lei Ben was responsible for guarding the safety of the palace, while Ye Xiong was responsible for the defense of Yizhou City.
After arranging the military and political affairs, Xiao Jingxuan went to the guest room where the master lived and told the master that he planned to take a rest and resume his studies.
The master was very pleased to hear Xiao Jingxuan's plan. Not only did he plan to protect Xiao Jingxuan, but he also taught Xiao Jingxuan a set of techniques to conceal luck and deceive the secrets of heaven.
Xiao Jingxuan was very happy to get this skill. With this set of skills, he can better conceal his whereabouts.
After carefully studying the exercises, Xiao Jingxuan began to spread the exercises under the protection of his master.
San Gong is not a simple thing. In addition to dispersing the innate Qi all over the body, it also needs to consume one's own mental energy and close all the acupuncture points in one's body.
Only by truly starting over can hidden dangers be eliminated. This chapter has been completed!
