Chapter 308 Congratulations, Your Highness
"Next, you two go and bring the ten thousand men in the city here in turn..."
If you want to perfectly control the entire Tiannan Pass, you can't just control Tuoba Mingyu, Fang Yongquan and Tu Jin.
Although these three are the generals and two deputy generals of Tiannan Pass, the real control and command are still the thousand men and centurions.
However, there are too many centurions, and it is a bit troublesome for Xiahou Dun and himself to control them.
So first control all the ten thousand men, and then let the ten thousand men control the thousand men under their command, and then let the thousand men control the centurions under their command.
In this way, the 200,000 soldiers guarding Tiannan Pass can be easily controlled, and Tiannan Pass will naturally become a thing in the bag.
This is the heaven-defying part of the primary soul control technique, and it is also the biggest reliance of Lu Fan's confidence in controlling Tiannan Pass.
After all, the control using poison pills is not very reliable.
After all, poison pills are just a kind of deterrence, and it is also a deterrence that does not last long.
Once the controlled person finds an antidote or encounters some kind of threat, it is very likely to get out of control.
Some strong men even choose to take over the body directly, so the control of the poison pill is useless.
But the primary soul control technique is different.
The primary soul control technique controls the soul body and soul of the cultivator, and directly leaves a soul mark in their soul body and soul.
The soul mark will continue to merge with the soul body and soul of the cultivator. The higher the cultivation level, the faster the fusion.
So no matter whether the controlled cultivator takes over the body or not, he cannot escape control.
More importantly, the soul mark will affect the controlled person at all times during the process of continuous fusion and growth, making the controller more and more loyal and respectful, and eventually become a die-hard like the summoner.
This is the real power of the primary soul control technique, which can change the intelligence and heart of the controlled person.
Because of this, Lu Fan dared to teach the primary soul control technique and let the controlled person control others.
Facing Lu Fan's explanation, Tuoba Mingyu and Fang Yongquan nodded respectfully.
"Yes, Your Highness."
They naturally understood Lu Fan's thoughts and intentions, but they did not dare to refuse at all.
And they also had the same idea as Tuoba Qi at this moment.
Since they have already submitted to Lu Fan and cannot escape from his control, they can only find a way to make more people submit to Lu Fan and continuously strengthen Lu Fan's strength.
In this way, there will be no pressure for their submission, and the chance of saving their lives will be greater.
So they will not only not neglect Lu Fan's orders, but will be more proactive in completing the tasks.
After paying respectful tribute, Tuoba Mingyu and Fang Yongquan left the courtyard directly to summon the captains of ten thousand men in the pass.
Tuoba Qi said to Lu Fan respectfully: "Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations, Your Highness, after today, the entire Tiannan Pass will be in the hands of Your Highness."
Looking at Tuoba Qi who was flattering him, Lu Fan smiled and said:
"Don't worry, you have submitted to this king, and this king will not treat you badly. In the future, you will all be granted titles and appointed as prime ministers to guard one side.
In addition, this king will also improve your cultivation and physical fitness, so that you have the opportunity to step onto a higher peak."
If you want the horse to run, you must let the horse eat grass, and it must be full.
He was very clear about this.
Even if he had controlled these guys, he would still give them enough benefits.
After all, people's hearts would keep changing.
If he was extremely harsh on them, then even the most loyal hearts would continue to weaken over time.
Even if they were always loyal, their efficiency would definitely be affected.
Active and passive are two completely different concepts.
His ambitions require these guys to take the initiative and act crazily.
So he must give them enough benefits to motivate them to keep moving forward.
Hearing Lu Fan's promise, Tuoba Qi nodded excitedly: "Thank you, Your Highness."
The reason why he surrendered to Lu Fan.
On the one hand, he really didn't want to die, and on the other hand, he wanted to get benefits.
If there were no benefits, he would naturally have some complaints about Lu Fan in his heart.
"Sit down and talk."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After letting Tuoba Qi sit down, Lu Fan began to ask Tuoba Qi about the situation inside the Tuoba family.
And Tuoba Qi did not hide anything, and immediately told him all the situation of the Tuoba family.
Although Lu Fan had learned a lot about the Tuoba family from Tuoba Yanlu and Tuoba Jinqing.
But with Tuoba Qi's extremely detailed narration, he still learned some useful information.
After asking about the details of the Tuoba family, Lu Fan asked about the contradictions between the Tuoba family and the Tianwu royal family and whether there had been any friction recently.
Tuoba Qi also told the story in great detail.
After Tuoba Qi finished his story, Lu Fan raised his eyebrows and a strange look appeared on his face.
Originally, he thought that after he led people to attack Tiannan Pass, the Tianwu royal family would definitely take the opportunity to attack the Tuoba family and then seize the Tuoba family's control over Tiannan Pass.
But according to Tuoba Qi, the Tianwu royal family did not seem to make any moves.
The Tuoba family has made various arrangements for response.
Not only did they transfer the Zhanhu Army from Tiannan Pass to the junction of the southern and central regions.
But they also prepared to build several new armies.
In addition, the Tuoba family also contacted the Situ Sikong and Duanmu families, and prepared to advance and retreat together.
Although it was the Tuoba family that was in trouble this time, the other three families knew very well that they must not stand idly by at this time.
Once they chose to stand idly by and let the Tianwu royal family take action against the Tuoba family, then they would be the next one.
After all, the reason why the Tianwu royal family did not dare to take action against them before was because the four major families had always been in the same boat.
In addition, the four major families guarded the four major borders of the Tianwu Dynasty.
Therefore, the other three major families agreed to the request made by the Tuoba family without any hesitation.
In addition, the Tuoba family also contacted many civil officials and generals in the Tianwu court.
Whenever the royal family wanted to take action against the Tuoba family, these civil officials and generals would also report to stop it.
It can be said that the Tuoba family has made all preparations and is waiting for the Tianwu royal family to make a move.
But the strange thing is that the Tianwu royal family did not make any move at all, as if they did not know about the changes that the Tuoba family had suffered.
For this point, the Tuoba family was also extremely confused.
However, despite the doubts, the Tuoba family still did not relax at all, and still spread the intelligence network to keep an eye on the every move of the Tianwu royal family.
After a moment of silence, Lu Fan looked at An Lan on the right.
After all, he had experienced An Lan's wisdom, which could be said to be very evil.
He could not figure out why the Tianwu royal family did not take any action, but An Lan might have an idea.
Facing Lu Fan's inquiring gaze, An Lan hesitated for a moment and said...
