Let them offer their loyalty!
Chapter 1114 - 521 Zhao Ji: I Want to Kill Qiu Tu (10,000 Words Asking for Monthly Tickets)

Hearing Tang Feifei's words, Qiu Tu thrust twice forcefully. Then he couldn't help but ask, "Does the Sanctuary have such strong war potential?"

War is not child's play; it's not as simple as sending a hundred thousand troops to attack.

Materials and logistics must be ensured. The training of officials and the order of the economic system must keep up.

Otherwise, even if it's captured, it can't be maintained.

Thinking this, Tang Feifei, panting and stroking the two firm masses on her chest, said,

"My grandpa said that the Sanctuary will mobilize all sorts of resources to ensure this operation."

"This should be the last war for the Sanctuary for the next five to eight years."

"Conquering three states continuously, dozens of cities, is enough for the Sanctuary to consume for many years."

"As long as the results of this war are thoroughly consumed, the war potential and economic potential of the entire Eighth Sanctuary will be greatly improved."

"So, this is a foundational war."

At this point, Tang Feifei paused and then said, "Actually... to prevent any issues with this operation, my grandpa has secretly set up a dedicated communication channel."

"Huang Shangzong will supervise the entire war and remind me at critical moments."

"And if he encounters a complex situation he can't handle, he'll transfer this line to Old Rao, who will personally command."

Hearing Tang Feifei's words, Qiu Tu was momentarily speechless.

Who is Huang Shangzong? He is the most capable military genius of the Eighth Sanctuary in the past decade.

He has made outstanding contributions to the Sanctuary.

With his "climax" political acumen and widely recognized judgment of people, he's risen to this position truly because he can fight.

And... Who is Old Rao? He is the leader of the "Iron-Blood Faction", the first warlord of the old Northwestern Region, the creator of the Eighth Sanctuary, and the Supreme Councilman.

In the eyes of everyone in the Eighth Sanctuary, he is like a god of war.

And yet such an older and younger generation of "military gods" do not personally command this crucial battle but rather choose to supervise remotely, assisting Tang Feifei...

This is such that even if they tied a dog there, it would win, wouldn't it?

They are completely feeding the credit to Tang Feifei's mouth, afraid she might not chew or swallow it.

After this battle, Tang Feifei's credit will instantly become legendary, becoming the unmatched political rising star of the Sanctuary.

Not to mention being promoted to Speaker and Supreme Council Member, Qiu Tu even suspects Elder Tang plans to let Tang Feifei directly serve as the "Two States Guardian!"

And then thinking of his own hard work, taking chestnuts from the fire, seeking skin from the tiger, fighting life and death to achieve today's position.

Qiu Tu felt imbalanced in his heart: Indeed..... the biggest watershed between people is amniotic fluid!

In the next life, he must be reborn into a good family! Save him hundreds of times the effort!

Thinking this, the "jealous" Qiu Tu, in anger, flipped Tang Feifei over, pinned her down, and then fiercely pounded away!

Finally, after thoroughly feeding Tang Feifei with milk, Qiu Tu finally vented his frustration.

Afterwards, as the two snuggled against each other, Tang Feifei lightly traced her fingers on Qiu Tu's arm, but her mind recalled the conversation with her grandpa this morning.

According to Elder Tang, he and Old Rao actually had differences regarding the start of this war.

In fact, he was one of those against continuing the war.

There were two reasons for his opposition.

First is.... he felt that the Sanctuary's economy was only "average"; after digesting Dongye State, consuming another New State was already the limit.

If two more states were annexed, it might affect the Sanctuary's own economic operations and other states.

Secondly, he felt Qiu Tu's power was expanding too quickly.

Qiu Tu went from an unknown little figure to being celebrated and then to a senior frontier official in just one year.

And it would be fine if it ended there. Qiu Tu's strength also improved immensely. He is now one of the top men in the Eighth Sanctuary.

This gives Qiu Tu extensive influence and many confidants in New and Dongye States.

In such a situation, if continued support is given to these two states, allowing them to expand further.

It's hard for him to imagine what kind of terrifying creature would be nurtured at that time.

With power over four states, backed by an evil god, peak Fifth Order, and strong armies.

Such power, the Sanctuary has no way to restrict Qiu Tu.

Once Qiu Tu digests these four states, he can completely operate independently and form his own system.

Even if Qiu Tu acted decisively, raising his arm, followers would gather, dividing land and territory would not be out of the question.

It is because of this worry that Elder Tang actually didn't much agree with taking the two states.

In the end, Old Rao refuted and convinced him with two rhetorical questions.

The first rhetorical question was: Without Qiu Tu, is it even possible to take over New State and the other two states?

The second rhetorical question was: Is it necessary to prevent Qiu Tu from becoming too big to fail?

Not to mention whether Qiu Tu, under the Sanctuary's checks and balances, would really become too big to fail.

Even if Qiu Tu really became too big to fail.... would it have any impact on the relationship between the Sanctuary and Qiu Tu?

Old Rao answered his own questions, providing his answer: No.

Because.... Qiu Tu's current status in the Sanctuary is not due to his confidants and controlled land.

But rather his own Fifth Order power, and the ability to manipulate the evil god.

With Qiu Tu's strength and the power of the evil god he can influence, he could completely defy the Sanctuary and pretend to obey.
