Chapter 372 Civil War
[It's no use for Dai Shun, anyone can see that. 】

[The Gods Restoration Army is also doomed, and everyone can see it. 】

[After crushing the combined efforts of all internal and external opposition forces, the newly emerging "Six Dynasties" already possessed the momentum and strength to sweep across the world! ]

[No one expected that this long chess game that had lasted for nearly a hundred years, with the heaven and earth as the chessboard, all living beings as chess pieces, and the gods as chess players, would end like this.]

[But no matter whether everyone is happy or not, the war between mortals has to end. After all, the winner of the war between mortals has been decided, the Gu King. If they want to overturn this result, they can only let their true gods die. ]

[But this is impossible, because everyone knows clearly: fighting and killing in the game is fine, but how can the players themselves participate in it? ]

[So, after careful discussion, the gods decided to exit in a more respectable manner...]

[Soon, Li Ziliang, who was using a pseudonym, received a joint statement from various rebel armies: With the general trend being like this, it was meaningless to continue to fight against the Heavenly Army, and all armies could surrender! ]

[“However, the affairs of South Continent should always be handled by people from South Continent, so you must change the flag of West Continent…”]

[After receiving this statement, Li Ziliang just smiled and then threw it away in front of the envoy.]

[“Go back and tell your ancestors that they are not qualified to negotiate with me now!”]

[Li Ziliang said contemptuously: "If you have the ability, send your army to destroy me. If you don't have the ability, don't negotiate. Who I believe in is my business. It is not your turn to comment!"]

[After that, Li Ziliang, the supreme commander of the Six Armies, decisively issued a new combat order: Northern Expedition! Annihilate all warlords! ]

[In the 69th year of the New Heavenly Court and the 218th year of the Dashun era, the newly emerged Six Dynasties regime in the South launched a vigorous Northern Expedition against the warlords who had ruled the North for nearly a hundred years! ]

[The six armies were equipped with guns and artillery, and were strictly disciplined. They shouted the slogan "Northern Expedition" and attacked from multiple directions.]

[Wherever the Six Dynasties and Six Armies went, the people welcomed them wholeheartedly! After all, warlord rule was unpopular, and the people had long hoped to eliminate these rebellious restorers. Now that the Southern Dynasty was marching north, they naturally supported it. ]

[Under the powerful offensive of the military and civilians, all the warlords collapsed one after another! ]

[Faced with such a defeat, the gods were furious and cursed the six armies for being "traitors", but things had come to this point, and with the southern government's obvious attitude of not making any conditions, the gods had no choice but to accept it.]

[After just three years, the Northern Expedition Army wiped out all the old warlords. The True Gods of each clan had no choice but to leave the South Continent with their defeated and crying descendants, and settled on an isolated island in the sea...]

[After the war had come to this, the gods had nothing to say, so they decided to just be idle and idle, out of sight, out of mind.]

【…】

Xizhou.

Lin Liu looked at Li Ziliang in surprise:
"You really don't give them face?"

"No."

Li Ziliang was very calm:

"Why should I give them face? Since I promised you that I would help you unify the four continents, I will never break my promise."

Lin Liu was a little moved by these words. After all, Lao Li just got on the bus halfway, and he didn't do him enough good things. It was purely because of his ideals that he was inspired and had some conversation with him.

And now, Lao Li actually did what he promised...

"All right……"

Lin Liu sighed:
"If they plan to harm you in the future... I will bring people to stand with you!"

"That's not necessary."

Old Li shook his head:
"Firstly, I never revealed my identity from the beginning to the end. They will only think that Liuchao is really a mortal rebel army that rose up unexpectedly, and they will not think that it was my micromanipulation."

"Secondly, they are not three-year-old children. They don't have the idea of ​​fighting just because they can't afford to play. If they lose, they lose. It's just a game."

"So as long as you don't interfere, there's no need to worry about us being besieged..."

After explaining the reason, without waiting for Lin Liu to think too much, Li Ziliang smiled and said:
"Instead of worrying about this, why don't you give me two more battalions of equipment so we can fight faster!"

Lin Liu was puzzled:

"Haven't the warlords been wiped out? There aren't many people on the small overseas islands. What are you still fighting for?"

"Dashun."

Li Ziliang's answer was very calm:
"No matter what, Dashun must be destroyed. Only by destroying it will the gods be convinced. Only by destroying it will the world become what you want it to be."

"As for my descendants, they have enjoyed the country for more than 200 years, which is more than enough."

"The world is left to you..."

No one knows what the Shun Taizu, who personally buried his own dynasty, was feeling, nor does anyone know whether his emotions were surging like a tide under his calm appearance...

All in all, he made this decision really calmly.

Lin Liu nodded slowly, his eyes serious:
"it is good."

[In the 72nd year of the New Heavenly Court, the Six Dynasties won a great victory in the Northern Expedition, eradicating the various warlords who had been spreading their influence for nearly a hundred years! ]

[That year, the Six Dynasties once again prepared for war...] [In the 75th year of the New Heaven, the Six Dynasties finally launched the final Northern Expedition, aiming directly at the capital of Dashun!]

[The army marches north, and the capital is shaken! ]

[The military and civilians were all terrified. Some wanted to surrender, some wanted to fight. People were in a state of confusion and chaos ensued.]

[Emperor Shun heard the news and knew the inside story, and his face became even more tense: The ancestor is really crazy...]

[The ancestor personally rebelled against his own family. Is there any need to fight such an abstract war? ]

[Emperor Shun was overwhelmed with emotions and wanted to surrender directly! But Lao Li refused to let him surrender, saying that it would "harm the international image"...]

[Shun Emperor: What can I say? 】

[Faced with his ancestor who was determined to fight a good battle to impress the gods, Emperor Shun could only hold on. He urgently asked Xizhou for assistance while mobilizing new troops and local militias to launch a counterattack against the aggressive Northern Expedition Army! ]

[The war is about to break out...]

[You watched the entire war from the sidelines. After watching it for a long time, you also understood why Li Ziliang had to start a war.]

[Although he founded the Shun Dynasty, there have been a lot of problems within the Shun Dynasty for more than two hundred years. ]

[Especially in the past few decades of bloody abuses by various warlords, "annual tribute", "annexation", "backlog of cases", "powerful and wealthy" and so on, all together made the Dashun dynasty lifeless and corrupt, and the lifespan of the dynasty was greatly reduced. A thorough change of dynasty was urgently needed to sweep away the darkness and inject vitality! ]

[So Li Ziliang must fight this battle. Not only must you fight, but you must fight it hard and fight a war of annihilation to wipe out all the accumulated problems of the Shun Dynasty at one time so that you can govern in the future.]

【Lao Li’s kindness is not over yet! 】

[You sighed, and the idea in your mind became clearer and clearer...]

[In the 75th year of the New Heavenly Court, the Sixth Army once again marched north and engaged in a fierce battle with the Shun Dynasty's new army and local militia forces! ]

[The six armies came with the intention of destroying the country and unifying it. They were well-trained, well-fed and had high morale. ]

[The Shun army suffered repeated defeats, so their morale was low, but the local militias were full of fighting spirit, because they knew that the Six Dynasties would redistribute the land and settle the crimes, which seriously threatened their interests, so they fought to the death to stop the Northern Expedition Army.]

[So, once the battle started, it became white-hot...]

[Both sides fought to the death, their determination and intensity far exceeded any previous warlord battles! ]

[But after all, the South had experienced the industrial upgrade carefully managed by Li Ziliang, so the Sixth Army was stronger, while the Shun Army had a shallow foundation and could not afford the consumption. ]

[So, after a protracted war between the North and the South, the Shun army in the North gradually became exhausted and suffered repeated defeats...]

[In the 81st year of the New Heavenly Court and the 230th year of the Great Shun Dynasty, the Shun army in the north suffered a series of defeats in decisive battles and finally lost its combat effectiveness, while the six southern armies were as aggressive as tigers and gradually seized the land of the Shun Dynasty.]

[The following year, the six southern armies marched straight in, defeated multiple lines of defense, and attacked the capital in one go, shocking the entire city! ]

[In order to attack the city, Li Ziliang directly pulled dozens of the latest Italian cannons...Western cannons, aimed at the city gate tower and bombarded it wildly! ]

[Finally, after a brief resistance, Emperor Shun, who had been mentally prepared, had no choice but to issue an edict: surrender.]

[In the 231st year of Dashun, Emperor Shun officially issued an edict to abdicate! ]

[On that day, Emperor Shun led his clan members, officials, and imperial guards to surrender, tied with a rope around their necks, and rode a white horse and a plain carriage, carrying the emperor's seal and token, and surrendered on the side of the Chen Road.]

[I don’t know if it was Emperor Shun’s intention, but this entire surrender ceremony was a complete replica of the surrender ceremony of the previous dynasty more than 200 years ago, even the details were exactly the same! ]

[So, when Li Ziliang, under a pseudonym, came to accept the surrender, he couldn't help but twitch his face when he saw this extremely familiar ceremony...]

[But it is one thing to feel abstract, and another thing to feel otherwise. When Li Ziliang witnessed this ceremony, an inexplicable emotion arose spontaneously...]

[In the 231st year of Dashun, Emperor Shun surrendered, and the Shun Dynasty, which lasted for 231 years, officially perished! ]

[The demise of the Shun Dynasty also means that the difficult Civil War has been won. The southern Six Dynasties industrial zone won a great victory, while the northern Shun Dynasty agricultural zone was defeated... What a reversed Civil War. So your name is Lincoln? ]

[No! It seems that your last name is Lin, and you also have the title of "Grand Commander"...]

[In short, General Li of the South, under the banner of General Lin, won the Civil War! ]

[That year, General Li rejected his subordinates' advice to ascend the throne, and righteously accepted the Great Commander of Xizhou as emperor. He also abolished the "Dashun" era name and used the "New Heavenly Court" era name that was unified throughout the world.]

[After the news spread, the whole world was in uproar! ]

[After all, everyone thought that Lao Li only used the abstract banner of "Master=6" for profit reasons, and would naturally abolish it after unification.]

[But no one expected that he was not acting...]

[So, countless persuasions flew into Li Ziliang's office, trying to persuade him to draw a clear line between him and you, the Western barbarian chieftain! ]

【But Lao Li was unmoved and only sent a letter to Xizhou persuading him to ascend the throne.】

[“Please, Commander-in-Chief, follow the will of Heaven and the people and call yourself Emperor according to the customs of Southern Continent!”]
