Chapter 357 Enfeoffment?
Sure enough, people who didn't trust him originally felt hesitant when they saw Pei Xuanjing's attitude.
When they thought about Pei Xuanjing's past deeds, it seemed that he had never deliberately deceived him.
Could it be that this plan is serious?
Some people were guessing that at this moment, Zhao Baiyang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
"Immortality!" Zhao Baiyang sighed and asked aloud: "Brother Pei is so heroic, so you don't know what I will have to pay if I want to join this plan?"
As for what Pei Xuanjing said, he In fact, there is no doubt about it, because the Maitreya Sect has a long history, and they know a lot about some things about the Shenxiao Sect back then.
He was very doubtful before that the Taoist sect could figure it out if they unite, but why Bai Xiaosheng and the Taoist sect came together? He would never believe it if it was just based on the relationship between the other party and Taoist Qingxu.
Now that he heard Pei Xuanjing mention the plan of the divine dynasty on earth, this could not help but completely reveal the doubts in Zhao Baiyang's heart and completely connect his original speculations.
Of course, he knew that Pei Xuanjing in front of him never made a loss-making business. If the other party brought this matter up, he would have to pay some price.
However, in his opinion, since the other party proposed it, he might as well agree first. After all, as long as the price paid is not high, then it is worth it.
After all, his heretical alliance is currently a bit strong but needs time. You might as well cooperate with the other party first and wait until later.
"Brother Zhao is so generous." Pei Xuanjing glanced at the other party with a slightly surprised look. Unexpectedly, it was Zhao Baiyang who took the initiative, which made him have a higher evaluation of Zhao Baiyang in his heart.
You know, he was originally prepared to let the people from the Family Alliance act as a 'trustee', but he didn't expect that Zhao Baiyang took the initiative to speak and eased the atmosphere.
With Zhao Baiyang's words, the thoughts of the others immediately came alive.
After all, not to mention the way Leader Zhao behaves, the other party's ability is well-known in the world. Since he thinks this matter is profitable, the balance in the minds of several parties who were originally hesitant began to tilt a bit.
"Yes, since the real person is willing to let me participate in such a big event, it must not be unconditional!" Xue Wuhen also said.
His thoughts are similar to that of Zhao Baiyang. Now that the re-merged Demonic Cult is in his hands, a Blood Fiend Lord has appeared, making it difficult for him to control it, so he needs time.
And in fact, he had some guesses about Pei Xuanjing's conditions, and had already made countermeasures before coming to Shenxiao Mountain.
Pei Xuanjing did not sell out his words, and directly stated his purpose: "The Ming Dynasty will send troops outside the pass to wipe out the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty and integrate the outside of the pass into the territory. We need everyone's efforts."
Sure enough!
Hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words, almost everyone present thought at the same time.
Just as Xue Wuhen had a countermeasure in mind, everyone who was able to come here also had a plan for this matter.
Originally they thought that this matter was the main purpose, but they did not expect to be shocked by the plan of the earthly dynasty that Pei Xuanjing had just thrown out.
“Isn’t the purpose of conquering the outside of the pass to take away the former vitality to prepare for the divine dynasty’s plan?”
None of the people present were stupid. They originally thought it was just a matter of expanding territory, and they were curious as to why the Daomen were so keen on this matter.
Now that we have the plan of the above-ground divine dynasty mentioned by Pei Xuanjing just now, the answer is self-evident.
“Not bad!” Pei Xuanjing didn’t hide anything.
This matter cannot be hidden. Since I can't hide it, it's better to say it directly and honestly, which will show my attitude.
Zhu Yousong, the king of Xiang on the side, said at the right time: "The imperial court has prepared to send one million troops out of the border to complete the unfinished ambition of Emperor Taizong Taizu. But such a one-million-strong army will consume a lot of money."
He Before he finished speaking, everyone present understood.
When an army of one million goes on an expedition, the supplies consumed are astronomical, so the Ming Empire may not be able to sustain it for long.
However, the conquest outside the pass is not just a matter of defeat. It also needs to be guarded by soldiers and horses to completely digest the territory outside the pass. The supplies required are huge, and enough masters are needed to suppress all parties, even the Ming court. Preparing for more than ten years is also a bit difficult to support.
So, King Xiang’s intention is very obvious, and they need to spend their own resources to support it, and send experts to accompany the army.
After all, all the forces here now, except for Tie Qianshan's Iron Palm Sect and Zi Tianxiong's Tianwang Pavilion, have not been around for a long time. The other forces all have profound foundations and have accumulated countless amounts. Even Pei Xuanjing's If the newly reestablished Shenxiao Sect can unlock the accumulation left behind by the original Shenxiao Sect, it will surpass the accumulation of many major forces.
With their support, you will have no worries.
According to the plan that has been agreed upon, Zhu Yousong said: "Don't worry, the imperial court will not treat you badly. If the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty are wiped out, the imperial court will make room for you."
Hmm!
Everyone present was shocked.
Even in the Central Plains, they each have the power to secretly influence the state roads, but they can only influence it secretly. No one dares to control it openly, because that means rebellion.
The implication of letting them have exclusive possession of a place outside the pass is tempting enough. Because this is undoubtedly a different kind of enfeoffment, allowing them to control the government alone.
Although the areas outside the Pass are not as wealthy as those in the Central Plains, but now that the earth has recovered, the elixirs and treasures produced in those places outside the Pass may not necessarily be weaker than those in the Central Plains.
What's more, being able to control a land is undoubtedly a great benefit for either of them.
Hearing this condition, even the two Buddhist monks couldn't help but feel moved.
After all, Buddhism pays attention to ordinary living beings and needs countless believers.
However, various forces in the Central Plains took advantage of the power of Buddhism at that time, and intentionally or unintentionally joined forces to secretly suppress Buddhism, so that the power of Buddhism was suppressed.
It is undoubtedly a good opportunity for them to be able to break out of the cage and expand their influence.
“Your Highness is serious about what he said!”
The first to speak were the elders of the Family Alliance.
hehe.
Seeing the attitudes of these few, the rest of them laughed secretly in their hearts.
As expected, the people of these aristocratic families have the greatest ambition for power. They, the members of aristocratic families that have been passed down for thousands of years, value these things more seriously than others.
They are indeed a bunch of ambitious people.
Xiang Wang Zhu Yousong cursed secretly in his heart, but he nodded with a smile on his face: "Of course! This matter has been confirmed by His Majesty and the ministers in the court. Waiting for the day when the troops are dispatched, there will be an imperial edict Tell it to the world!”
