Chapter 130 Demonstrating Value
"How many armies are there in the Wu Kingdom?"
Putting the tea cup on the table, Ye Qingxuan casually picked up the Taoist scripture and asked:
"I'm talking about an army composed of monks, not ordinary people."
"Hundreds of thousands." Jiang Yunshang pondered briefly and quickly gave an answer.
The qualifications to become a monk are only one in a million, and even fewer are qualified to be recruited into the elite army of Wu Kingdom.
Even so, it can still amount to hundreds of thousands.
The vastness of the territory of Wu Kingdom can be seen clearly.
"So that's it, it's quite a lot."
Ye Li opened the Taoist Scriptures and asked, "How many of them are there who have enmity with your Wu Kingdom?"
Such a large number of troops must not all be local monks from the Wu Kingdom.
It seems that many monks from enemy countries were forcibly incorporated into elite troops by the Wu Kingdom after their defeat.
"...Sixty percent."
A trace of doubt flashed in Jiang Yunshang's eyes, and she didn't understand why the other party asked this.
But she still said in an arrogant tone:
"But they are all scared out of their wits. I didn't use any means at all. They swore allegiance to Wu Kingdom themselves."
"I see."
Ye Li nodded slightly and chuckled: "In other words, many people in the Wu Kingdom are former ministers of the subjugated country?"
"...That's not wrong." Jiang Yunshang replied with a slight frown.
From the other party's words, she keenly sensed that something was wrong.
Even if some of the generals and officials recruited by Wu Kingdom were dissatisfied, in the face of her absolute strength, that dissatisfaction didn't matter at all.
Even if his cultivation level is blocked now, the situation in Wu Kingdom may be a little turbulent, but as long as his cultivation level is unblocked later, all the turmoil will disappear.
Now the other party is specifically using the term "old ministers of the subjugated country". What is the reason?
"That......"
Finally, Ye Li held his chin and asked in a calm voice:
"If these people still have their homeland in their hearts, what will they do after they learn that your cultivation has been completely lost and you will never be able to recover in the future?"
"Of course..." Jiang Yunshang's beautiful face suddenly froze.
The answer is given subconsciously in my heart.
Naturally, they started a rebellion and strived to restore the country...
This answer is indeed terrifying, but Jiang Yunshang's attention is elsewhere at the moment.
"I can't recover in the future...what do you mean?" She looked at Ye Qingxuan in disbelief, with a trace of fear on her beautiful face, and asked:
"You're not going to unblock my cultivation?!"
Wow——
The Taoist turned the simple Taoist scripture to the next page. He looked at the empress of the Wu Kingdom with a playful look in his eyes and said lightly:
"When did Pindao say that he would definitely unlock your cultivation?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a heavy pressure suddenly fell on Jiang Yunshang, causing her face to turn pale.
With all his limbs and bones sealed, Jiang Yunshang had no ability to resist at all, and could only watch as he fell to his knees with a plop!
"Don't you think that taking you to court will wipe out all the evidence of your crime of invading Hanxia?"
"If Pindao hadn't been stationed in Hanxia, you would have invaded Hanxia effortlessly and killed any Hanxia people who dared to resist with thunderous means."
Ye Qingxuan looked down at Jiang Yunshang's beautiful, absent-minded face.
"Pindao is not interested in you personally."
"Even if I can control your body at will now, Pindao is too lazy to do it."
"You want Pindao to unblock your cultivation, that's easy."
His voice was indifferent, and his words pierced Jiang Yunshang's heart like a sharp sword:
"But you have to lie down on the ground like a pet first, wagging your tail and begging for mercy, showing your worth.
"Otherwise, there is no need to discuss anything."
