40,000 Years of Cultivation

"Isn't that'Star Pirate Nemesis"?"

Li Yao was very interested in this maverick General Lei Chenghu, and couldn't help thinking-if Lei Chenghu's fleet met Bai Xinghe's fleet, how interesting sparks would it collide?

Li Linghai continued: "Under the strong suppression of General Lei Chenghu, the star thief in dozens of great worlds in the fourth quadrant of the empire has almost disappeared, and even the world masters and warlords of the major worlds are horrified by his iron fist. Shaking, I dare not act rashly."

"and many more."

Li Yao frowned and said, "Isn't General Lei going to fight the star thief, what does it have to do with the world masters and warlords of these great worlds?"

"You are here for the first time, and you still don't know what happened to the star thief wandering among the vast star seas of the empire."

Li Linghai explained, "Think about it carefully. The empire unified the center of Xinghai as early as a thousand years ago and possessed extremely powerful force. Where is there room for star thief and stray bandit?"

Li Yao also thought that the last time he encountered the Big Thousand World, where star thief was particularly rampant, was the Flying Star Realm where there was almost no unified government and the major sects were loosely united.

Later, the star thief in the Flying Star Realm was stuck in his throat by the "Tai Xu Fighting Soldier Plan" thrown by the six major sects. The space for activity became smaller and smaller, showing a dying situation.

If it weren't for the Taixu plan itself to be a conspiracy to hide the evil heart, the star thief in the flying star realm would definitely be extinct.

The problem is that the so-called "Taixu Warriors" use the remote control combat puppet technology of the real human empire.

Since even the Flying Star Realm can use this technology to destroy Star Thieves, the real human empire has such a powerful force, and the Taixu warriors should be more advanced and advanced, so how can they use the little Star Thief to be helpless?

"In the Empire, these guys who are ostensibly called "Star Thieves" are more accurately called "Private Fleet"."

Li Linghai snorted coldly, "The empire is too vast, nobles and emperors, nobles and chaebols, chaebols and sects are full of various contradictions, and it is impossible to establish a powerful government to directly control the place. , Had to adopt a method similar to the enfeoffment of princes in ancient times to make local autonomy.

“Needless to say, the territories directly under the four major electoral families are independent kingdoms that have the power to levy taxes, mint coins, expand their army, build government and build teeth, and even erode the imperial capital.

"Even the many lords and warlords in the outer world are lawless overlords. They only have one acre of land in their eyes. For the benefit of trade channels, resource planets, fragmented worlds, etc., they often have friction with their neighbors.

"The four major electoral families, in order to check and balance the small and medium-sized nobles and warlords in the outer world, deliberately indulge them in biting their dogs and secretly support them in expanding the friction.

"Of course, on the surface, everyone is a citizen of the empire. They are all immortal cultivators. The starships and crystal armors are painted with the three-star blitzkrieg emblem. Resolve each other's disputes.

"On the bright side, what is protected by the imperial law is the form of the'challenge match.'

"In the event of trade frictions or competition for mineral resources, they will send as many players as they want to compete fairly in the arena. They will compete with each other without any grievances and no regrets about winning or losing.

"The empire is extremely advocating force. This method of resolving disputes has been supported by the vast majority of people. It has even evolved into an extremely popular form of entertainment. Whenever two larger worlds, each sends out very famous masters. When it comes to'solve the friction', it is really possible to attract hundreds of millions of eyes, which is more popular than any killing live broadcast platform.

"In the early years, the order and atmosphere of the empire had not yet been eroded. The vast majority of immortal cultivators still remember the glory of the past. They respected and agreed with the system of'victory in the ring'. If they lose in the ring, they will be honestly implemented. Ruling, transfer part of the benefits out.

"However, the millennium empire is becoming more and more decayed. To this day, when rituals and music have collapsed, and glory and laws have disappeared, more and more people don't pay attention to the ‘challenge winning’ system.

"Since I can't use my imperial army to take advantage of the shameless benefits, the'Private Fleet' came into being.

"They are Star Thieves in name, but they are actually supported by various warlords and nobles, including the four major electoral families, and even many of the'Star Thieves' are made up of regular troops.

"Many immortal cultivators in their big world are well-dressed and respectful high-class figures, even barons and earls of the empire, but they sneak into other great worlds silently, and when they change, they will become murderous. , Bloodthirsty thugs!"

"hiss……"

Li Yao took a deep breath. He is no stranger to the meaning of "private fleet". It turned out to be a star thief with an official license. He was backed by the government in the logistics supply and stolen goods channel. It was ten times more difficult to deal with than ordinary star thief. !

Li Linghai continued: "The dozens of large worlds in the fourth quadrant of the empire are almost all the domains of small and medium nobles and warlords, and their spheres of influence are intertwined and entangled with each other. The friction between each other is extremely frequent.

"If there is more friction, the Star Pirates—the privateer fleet will be just like a cow. You rob me today and I will kill you tomorrow. Although the intensity of the battle is not great, the war has continued for a hundred years. Not only is the people miserable, the local warlords and circles The Lord was also caught in a meaningless war of attrition, and could not see a day of complete peace.

"On the surface, General Lei Chenghu wants to eliminate the star thief, but in fact he wants to completely solve the chaos in the fourth quadrant and establish a stable order."

Li Yao let out an "Ah" and felt more and more that this "God of War" Lei Chenghu was no ordinary cultivator.

"In the beginning, no one believed that Lei Chenghu could solve the chaos, chaos, and long-standing resentment in the fourth quadrant, and no one even knew his ambition-General Lei was originally a man who only did nothing but said nothing but immersed himself in work. people."

Li Linghai said in a reverent tone, "General Lei visited the past one world after another, and found the local ruler. I hope that everyone will form a small organization to combat the increasingly rampant star thief phenomenon, in order to avoid irritation. For the imperial capital, just call it the relatively low-key name of the Channel Guard.

"At that time, no one knew how terrible the fledgling General Lei Chenghu was. Everyone regarded him as a fool, even if he was the owner of the'Guangyuan Lei Family', and patiently listened to him. After he politely walked out the door, he couldn't stop laughing.

"Let’s not say that the so-called Star Pirates are actually privateer fleets, or even disguised by various regular troops, just say that dozens of companies have joined together to create a'channel security team'. The hearts of the people are uneven, and how can it be possible? success?"

"No one takes General Lei in their eyes, and no one takes this young Patriarch’s words seriously. Many people are shaking their heads and sighing. The Guangyuan Lei Family can be regarded as a family that has been passed down for nearly a thousand years. There is such a foolish Patriarch, look. Coming soon will be defeated.

"However, within half a year, after General Lei wiped out the three privateer fleets in one breath, these world masters and warlords discovered that they were wrong, and they were very wrong.

"General Lei is serious, and he really does not hesitate to put all the resources accumulated by the entire Guangyuan Lei family for nearly a thousand years, plus his own life and even his soul, to end the chaos in the fourth quadrant.

"In the beginning, General Lei Chenghu was not a talented and talented general, nor was he a politician who had no tactics and strategizing. He was just a selfless man, just struggling to be'serious'. Only two words.

"All landlords and warlords have selfish intentions. They want to avoid their edge and preserve their strength. They don't dare to go head-to-head with General Lei's fleet, but they want to drive away General Lei's troops elsewhere, even because of this. A lot of supplies and intelligence were given to General Lei, just to attract disaster.

"However, General Lei treats every Star Pirates eradication battle as the last battle to be burned. Without considering the interests of his fleet, he is naturally invincible.

"The art of command, which was initially a little green and immature, has gradually been honed in decades of warfare, forming a way of using soldiers that is vigorous and dense, supplemented by strange and smart.

"And with a selfless sincerity, I have been running between warlords and local snakes for decades, doing everything I can to eliminate their conflicts, letting everyone see the benefits of letting go of friction and mutual trade, and gradually eliminating selfishness. The basis for the existence of the raiding fleet.

"In this way, decades later, this organization called the'Navigation Guard Team' was actually established!

"Although the name is the harmless'Navigation Guard Team', it sounds like the police cooperation organizations of the major worlds, but it actually includes military cooperation, trade agreements, the coordination of various world tax rates, and even the development bank, a package agreement. Huge organization.

"It can even be said that it is a quasi-alliance between the outer world in the fourth quadrant of the empire, spanning the three fields of military, politics, and economy!

"After completely defeating all the privateer fleets in the Great Thousand Worlds that refused to obey the orders of the ‘Channel Guard’, and the coalition forces are directed at their capital, no one dares to doubt General Lei’s authority outside the fourth quadrant."

Hearing this, Li Yao's eyes gleamed, and he couldn't help but said, "If this general Lei Chenghu is not a model of a truly unselfish soldier, he must be a deeply hidden careerist!"

Li Linghai smiled slightly and nodded: "Yes, at that time, everyone thought that General Lei Chenghu must be a deeply hidden careerist. After decades of disguise that seemed to be unselfish, he finally became a member of the world outside the fourth quadrant. 'Leader'.

"Even the families of the four major electors were shocked by General Lei Chenghu's performance, treating him as a serious concern and deliberately trying to deal with him.

"This happened more than a hundred years ago. At that time, the'Black Wind War' that shocked the empire happened. The empire suffered a fiasco unseen in hundreds of years in the five worlds including the Black Wind Realm on the border!"
