What I truly admire is the spirit of Huang Chao in the late Tang Dynasty.
Perhaps only his poem can explain something:
When autumn comes on the ninth day of the ninth month, my flowers bloom and all others wither. Their fragrance fills Chang'an, and the whole city is adorned in golden armor.
Back then, Huang Chao, relying on a family genealogy, marched all the way to Chang'an and completely overthrew the aristocratic family that had been passed down for thousands of years.
But what we want to see now is: red flags flying everywhere, horses galloping through Tokyo to admire the cherry blossoms!
Therefore, I plan to have those people learn from Huang Chao back then and take a trip to that small, broken island.
Follow their family tree and witness a Huang Chao uprising.
Chapter 716 I agree to this!
Upon hearing Jiang Zhen's words, Li Yunlong felt a surge of excitement.
"Good, good, good! Riding through Tokyo to admire the cherry blossoms, Old Jiang, you're amazing! I didn't know you knew so much!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhen shook his head and said:
"That's not what I said. Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's talk about this: can you agree to this?"
Upon hearing this, Old Li scratched his head and said:
"Honestly, Lao Jiang, I have a bad feeling about it! After all, this could easily lead to big problems."
I can at most ask you, but whether it will work or not, I don't know!
Jiang Zhen pondered for a moment and said:
"Let me tell you my conditions first, and then you can talk to the people above you."
Let them decide, but I'm telling you in advance, my conditions are unchanged.
If they disagree, I will naturally look for other partners to cooperate with.
I don't have much time, so I need to find some people to work with!
Upon hearing this, Old Li's expression turned serious.
"Okay, Lao Li, I understand. I'll explain it to my superiors."
But what are the remaining conditions?
Jiang Zhen: "This one condition is that I need a commander, but I hope that person is you, Lao Li!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong was taken aback, and then said:
"Hahaha, I knew it! Old Jiang, you definitely have your eye on me, Old Li!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhen curled her lip and said:
"Hehe, you figured it out. What I value is your recklessness and your courage to kill prisoners."
There may be many others who are more capable than you, but there's one problem: they place too much importance on rules.
If that's the case, then he won't be able to lead this inhuman army.
Because their actions are different from others, I cannot use the same methods as others.
Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures and the use of extraordinary people.
So, Lao Li, I hope you can also bring this up.
There's one more thing..."
As the two continued to make their demands, Li Yunlong noted them all down.
I'm planning to talk to the boss later.
..........................................
Night fell quickly.
At this moment, Li Yunlong appeared in the boss's room.
By this time, Li Yunlong had finished talking about all these things, and even went so far as to recount his trip to the moon.
After hearing all this, the boss fell silent.
Seeing this, Li Yunlong said anxiously:
"No, boss, at least give me, Lao Li, a word. Don't just stay here silently, okay?"
You should know that Brother Jiang said that if you don't agree, he will go find someone else.
This could be an opportunity, or even a chance for us to turn the tide.
At that time…
Upon hearing this, the boss said rather irritably:
"Hmph! You old codger, stop babbling on and on here."
Do you think I don't know how serious this is?
But you only thought of this much; you didn't even consider the deeper aspects.
In short, we must be cautious about this matter.
Also, did that person really tell you that he greatly admired Huang Chao?
Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong nodded and said:
"Yes, what's wrong? Is there a problem with this? Huang Chao's poem sounds pretty impressive!"
Upon hearing this, the boss replied rather irritably:
"You illiterate fool, you really know nothing. The reason he came here is probably because of this matter. Huang Chao is no simple man!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong was stunned, and then said:
"Boss, is there anything special about this Huang Chao?"
The boss nodded and said:
"Huang Chao was no ordinary person. Putting aside the heinous things he did, some of his actions had a very profound significance."
According to historical records, during the late Tang Dynasty, Huang Chao repeatedly failed the imperial examinations.
Especially after seeing the names on the list, most of them were members of the five prominent families and seven prestigious clans of the time.
Among them, very few were from poor families, and there were none from ordinary families.
They had no way to serve their country, yet they were still exploited by the imperial court and powerful families.
Finally, Huang Chao, having reached his limit, took action and led a group of people in an uprising.
That uprising was terrifying; within a short period of time, it sparked a response from millions.
Of course, we don't know if there are that many people, since we've never seen them, and it might just be boasting.
However, the number of people is definitely not small.
Thus, in that uprising, Huang Chao led his army all the way to Chang'an.
Finally, he learned from Chang'an about the scheming behind those who became officials: only scions of aristocratic families could become high-ranking officials.
Of course, there were also soldiers from humble backgrounds, but this type was not many, and those from humble backgrounds were those who had fallen from their former noble families.
No matter what, that's still higher than the average person, and they have a greater chance of success.
Upon learning of this, Huang Chao and his rebel army were completely enraged.
They took the family genealogies compiled by those aristocratic families back then and went to each of them one by one.
Subsequently, they overturned all those so-called thousand-year-old families.
After that incident, countless noble families died.
And it was precisely because of this incident that the rule of the aristocratic families was almost completely wiped out. Although they still had an impact, it was not as significant.
Later on, those ordinary people who were able to become officials through scientific examinations should actually be grateful to Huang Chao.
Otherwise, they would never get ahead; no one could have imagined that such a thing would happen.
Huang Chao immediately overturned the table belonging to the aristocratic families.
If Jiang Zhen truly admires Huang Chao, then what he said is very likely true.
After this war ends, they will start targeting the higher-ups of those little devils.
Okay, I'll tell the higher-ups that we've agreed to this.
However, there is one thing: this non-human army does not belong to us; it is an army that formed itself.
You can give orders, but absolutely nothing can be revealed, nor can our relationship with them be exposed, understand?
Upon hearing this, Old Li immediately laughed and said:
"Don't worry, boss, I'm not stupid, I won't do anything reckless."
But those things, there's really no need to try to get them..."
The boss shook his head and said:
"Jiang Zhen said a lot. This thing is a great weapon in wartime, but it's not good in peacetime."
At that time, these will be the entities that will be wiped out.
One generation is fine too. After one generation, it becomes a legend, and then no one will bother to look at something that never existed.
"Oh, right, there's one more thing. You kid, when you make a move against the Japanese, shouldn't you secretly let us know so we can prepare accordingly?"
Old Li: "Don't worry, boss!"
Chapter 717 Do you want to ascend to the Immortal Realm?
After some time, a message spread far and wide.
On this Central Plains, an extremely terrifying and mysterious force emerged, specifically designed to target the Japanese invaders.
Wherever that mysterious unit appears, all the Japanese soldiers are quickly killed.
