If you disappoint me, you will die...
Li Yun's voice was low and fell in the ears of the leaders in front of him, but it had thunderous power and made them feel awe-inspiring.
The emperor's words were not bluffing, but simply stating a fact.
After all, in front of them, Le Quansheng was an example.
It's just that they are the leaders of Qiyue Sanjiang after all. They are used to being loose and free in this river and lake. Even when facing the emperor's order, they can't help but resist at this time.
At this moment, Cai Jiansheng on the side sighed and said:
"Masters, Cai is not talented. I would like to say a few words..."
His expression was slightly decadent. He walked to the window and looked at the Yunshan Mountains in the distance, and said slowly:
"Cai was born in the Cai family of Longhu. He was forced to run away by his family. He fought tooth and nail in the world and became the master of Yueshan Sword Manor. He thought that he was a genius and that there should be a place for me in this world. …”
"A few days ago, nine surnames and ten people contacted me through the Cai family in Longhu. I am not afraid of your jokes. Cai is indeed tempted. He also wants to become famous and even occupy a place in the world. At least he can survive for a while. Make it Dangdang..."
Having said this, he suddenly laughed at himself, shook his head and continued:
"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous... A man in the rivers and lakes is imitating other people's competition in the Central Plains, and he doesn't take a piss and look in the mirror..."
His eye circles were slightly red at this time:
"Just a few days ago, Tu Yuyong, a hundred-hand man under the command of the great eunuch Enhai, led the army and guards to massacre our Yueshan Sword Village. Thousands of chickens and dogs of the tenants in the village were not left alive, and all the disciples of my Yueshan Sword Village were killed. There were only a few hundred left as hostages, and even the lowly wife was almost humiliated, so I was forced to agree to Yu Yong to come to Yunshan to serve as the eunuch's internal correspondent."
As soon as these words came out, all the leaders immediately caused an uproar. Dugu Lang, the leader of the Langshan Sect, suddenly pulled out the scimitar at his waist and shouted angrily:
"Brother Cai, how dare that eunuch... I will kill you on Yueshan Mountain right now!"
He and Cai Jiansheng are both members of aristocratic families, and their life experiences are somewhat similar. Moreover, they were saved by Cai Jiansheng when they were young and traveling in the world, so they obeyed Cai Jiansheng's words.
This time, he cooperated with the Nine Surnames and Ten Clan. Originally, Dugu Lang was very disgusted with the Nine Surnames and Ten Clan. In the end, it was only after Cai Jiansheng's persuasion that he agreed to the request of the Dugu Family.
When I heard Cai Jiansheng's words, I was immediately filled with righteous indignation and wanted to kill all the eunuchs immediately.
Cai Jiansheng shook his head and cupped his fists at everyone:
"Although Cai was forced by others, he agreed to be the eunuch's internal leader. He really shamed his ancestors and apologized to you first... Fortunately, Cai did not make a big mistake in the end, just because His Majesty went to Yueshan in person. , wiped out the military guards of the mansion, and rescued the two sons of the humble wife and my Yueshan sect disciple!"
After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized.
The emperor actually went to Yueshan himself, defeated the imperial guards, and saved Yueshan Sword Village!
And according to Cai Jiansheng, the emperor achieved this with one man and one sword!
This is simply an army of one person, one person can defeat ten thousand armies!
The emperor smiled calmly, as if what Cai Jiansheng said had nothing to do with him.
But the more this happened, the more the leaders felt that the emperor was unfathomable, and their gazes towards the emperor changed again.
Cai Jiansheng continued:
"Cai mentioned this matter not to express gratitude to the emperor. There is no way to repay such a great kindness. Cai can only die to repay the favor... Cai mentioned this matter just to remind all the leaders that today's emperor Wu You are full of virtue, and you recruit rebellious people like us just because you are kind-hearted. Please think about it clearly and don't make the mistake."
As soon as these words came out, all the leaders who were still hesitating and tangled in their hearts suddenly woke up.
The emperor is so full of martial virtue, does he really need them so much? Does he need these martial arts guards?
In today's world, one person can defeat thousands of armies. They are recruited to build some kind of martial arts guard just because they have a good life and are unwilling to go on a killing spree.
They were still hesitating and wanted to put conditions on the emperor, which was really shameless.
It goes without saying what awaits them once the emperor's patience runs out!
Moreover, from Cai Jiansheng's personal experience, they also discovered that competing for supremacy in the world was beyond the imagination of their reckless minds.
This is a matter of killing the nine tribes. Maybe at some point he will die and his whole family will be buried with him!
Thinking of Enhai's viciousness, cruelty, despicableness and shamelessness, everyone instantly understood that they had no other choice at all.
Only the emperor has a glimmer of hope!
At that moment, Miao Fengshan, the master of the Tianzhu Sword Sect, was the first to react. He knelt down on the ground with a pop, knelt three times and kowtowed to the emperor in front of him, and said:
"Miao Fengshan, a common man, is willing to lead all the disciples of the Tianzhu Sword Sect to surrender to the emperor! The emperor is full of martial virtue, which is the blessing of our great Wu Dynasty!"
With Miao Fengshan taking the lead, the remaining people saw that they couldn't even get the hot food if they didn't kneel down or even kowtow. At this time, they all fell to the ground and kowtowed to Li Yun to thank him without any hesitation.
Thinking that the emperor had defeated them in an upright manner, everyone kowtowed happily at this moment.
Looking at the sect leaders prostrating themselves on the ground in front of him, Li Yun smiled and said:
"Very good. All of you are the heroes of the world. I am very pleased. The martial arts secret guards formed an army in secret, which is a sharp blade in my hand. All of you are the leaders of the same faction. Except for the martial arts secret guards, in the open He still has an official position on his face."
Then he sat up straight and said loudly:
"Miao Fengshan, I will appoint you as the commander of the left guard of the government army, from the fifth rank to General Wu Yi."
Miao Fengshan was immediately overjoyed and kowtowed quickly:
"Miao Fengshan thanks the Emperor for his grace! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
He originally thought that he would only be regarded by the emperor as a member of the martial arts secret guard. It would be good to have a thousand households. However, he never expected that he would be directly appointed as a commander, and he would still be from the fifth rank of General Wu Yi!
Although the leader of a faction can be considered a powerful force in this troubled world, he is still just reckless.
The reason why they want to establish this martial arts alliance and secretly accept the solicitation from various forces is because they can find a position of power that truly makes them feel at ease in this troubled world?
It's just that they came from a rough background, so they had no way to serve the imperial court before.
Now that the emperor has personally promised it, this is a God-sent opportunity!
Seeing Miao Fengshan being directly commanded by the guards, the remaining leaders were equally excited.
A few people who had been claiming to be noble just now were feeling uneasy now. They wondered if they would receive the same treatment as Miao Fengshan because they were a little slower in taking action.
Then the emperor continued to say:
"Liu Yuanchun, although you are a bit pedantic, you are still upright. I will appoint you as the commander of the flag-bearer guard, from the fifth rank to General Wuyi!"
Liu Yuanchun, who had been talking nonsense before the fight with Li Yun, blushed, then kowtowed quickly and said happily:
"The common people are ignorant of Mount Tai, please forgive me! Thank you for your grace, long live my emperor!"
Li Yun continued:
"Yu Wenji, I designate you as the commander of the right guard of the government army, and also as General Wu Yi of the fifth rank."
Yu Wenji immediately kowtowed and thanked him. Although his face was solemn, he could not hide his excitement.
Immediately afterwards, all the heads of Qiyue and Sanjiang were named commanders, starting from the rank of fifth-grade Wu Yi general.
Being able to directly enter the court, starting from the fifth rank official position, all the heads are very satisfied.
They understand that if they want to go further, they have to fight for the rest, but this start is far beyond their previous imagination.
At this time, there is still the last Zen Master Jingjue in charge of Zhoushan Zen Temple. Li Yun said slowly:
"Jingjue, I give you two choices, return to secular life and become an official, or go to the Great Baoen Temple in the capital to be the abbot."
Then they saw Zen Master Jingjue clasping his hands together, prostrating himself on the ground, and said to Li Yun:
"Your Majesty, the world is in chaos and it is the right time to employ people. Liu Yin, a common man, has submitted his wish to return to the secular life and become an official."
Li Yun nodded and said:
"Okay, in that case, I will make you the Commander of the Zuojinwu Guards, and your rank will remain as before!"
Jingjue immediately kowtowed and thanked him.
"The official position has been granted to you, but you still need to get the guards yourself. I will not support idle and useless people in my court."
Everyone immediately nodded in agreement.
They also understood that this was the emperor's test for them and it was also a time to see their ability.
After all, the martial arts they were proud of were completely vulnerable to the emperor. If they couldn't use them, they would have to find other achievements.
Li Yun then said calmly:
"Back then, during the Martial Arts Alliance rebellion in Chengzu's dynasty, a lot of secrets and techniques from various schools were lost. I can complete the techniques for Qiyue and Sanjiang."
Everyone was overjoyed immediately after hearing this.
At this time, like a mirror in their hearts, they had completely surrendered to the emperor. They understood that the emperor did not offer these conditions when persuading them to surrender, but waited until they truly surrendered before offering these benefits. This showed an attitude:
The emperor relied entirely on strength to conquer them, not inducements. These benefits could be given to them, but they could only be used as rewards, not as conditions!
Immediately afterwards, the emperor waved his hand, and several exquisite small porcelain bottles fell into their hands:
"This is the Perfect Life-Breaking Pill that Li Chenggang, the founder of the Wu Dynasty, refined by chance when he met an immortal. If you take it at a super level, you can advance immediately. If you take it with a super level, you can also break through bottlenecks."
The moment everyone got the elixir, they all smelled a sweet fragrance. Just the fragrance made them feel comfortable. They were immediately overjoyed and said in unison:
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"
After this combination of kindness and power, they have completely surrendered to the emperor in front of them.
"Everyone, get up," Li Yun said calmly: "My trip is top secret. I have laid a dragnet to kill the eunuchs. They cannot be leaked for the time being. You will still call me the leader of the martial arts alliance to the outside world."
Everyone immediately nodded in agreement.
Compared with the emperor, the title of the martial arts leader is really nothing.
And when they thought that this martial arts alliance could still be established, and that the emperor was the leader of the martial arts alliance, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of pride as a disciple of the emperor.
At this time, Cai Jiansheng and Ji Yunpeng on the side were also filled with admiration.
The emperor just said a few words, and even beat and showed kindness, and completely subdued these rebellious leaders. It is really impressive!
Immediately afterwards, the emperor stood up and looked at the Yunshan Mountains outside the window and said:
"Enhai has arrived, and the martial arts guards will follow me to meet the enemy."
