According to Li Linghai, although the Deep Sea Fleet is still a "rebel" that has not surfaced, it is full of talents and generals.
The quality of the commanders at all levels far exceeds that of the Empire's Deep Space Fleet of the same level.
Especially the grassroots commanders on the front line are definitely elites who will survive a hundred battles.
There are various reasons for these elites to join the deep-sea fleet, but in the final analysis, it is nothing more than the blockage of the ascending channel and the injustice caused by the monopoly of nobles and clans.
This kind of injustice is magnified countless times by the fierce war.
In many cases, it is even related to the life and death of young officers, which naturally leads to fierce resistance.
The boss is incompetent and self-willed.
In order to gain military exploits for himself and his family, he disregards the life and death of the lower-level officers and soldiers, and consumes precious human lives as worthless cannon fodder.
Even when there is no hope of victory, he still drives forward.
Soldiers risking their lives through fire and sword just to gain a reputation for being "brave and courageous" have been commonplace in the "Empire Strikes Back" over the past decade.
The young officers at the grassroots level and the low-level immortal cultivators with no connections fought a cruel and bloody battle with the Holy Alliance.
They escaped from the battlefield of Shura and returned to the world with their scarred and riddled bodies.
When they are at the rear, what awaits them may not be medals, contribution points, cheers and flowers, but more likely a scapegoat pushed by their colleagues and superiors.
If he refuses to confess his crime honestly and takes the blame for his powerful colleagues and superiors, the cold and ruthless military court will open its bloody mouth and swallow up the bright future of countless young officers.
Anyway, in the real human empire ruled by nobles, princes and warlords, medals, honors and military exploits are never based on how much merit is achieved on the battlefield, but on the background, backing and foundation.
Low-level immortal cultivators who have no background, no backing, and are even less willing to kneel on the ground and surrender to the nobles, no matter how much blood they shed, how many achievements they make, and how many enemies they kill on the battlefield, they will never get ahead. .
This is the story of Tu Zhengdao, deputy commander of the Deep Sea Chapter.
He was once the supreme commander of a very famous Crystal Armor regiment in the Imperial Expeditionary Force.
He had no background or backing.
He relied on himself to break bones one after another on the battlefield and spit out mouthfuls of blood.
Step by step, he reached the position of Major General in the Imperial Army.
He is a legend in the Imperial Expeditionary Force, and has also received offers from four Electoral Houses.
But at that time, he was loyal to the realm lord of his hometown, and thought that the realm lord would definitely care about his "loyalty" and would do his best to protect and support him no matter what the circumstances.
But he was wrong.
In an extremely dangerous battle, the entire front collapsed completely due to the retreat of another crystal armored regiment on his flank.
It was only when he fought desperately and almost wiped out all his own troops that he managed to preserve the vitality of the friendly forces to the maximum extent. .
But the crystal armor battle group that was the first to flee was a direct descendant of one of the four Electoral families, the "Wuchuan Yun Family", and its commander was a descendant of the Yun family's main lineage.
Naturally, among the four majestic Electoral families, the pillars of the empire, there will never be anyone who is as timid as a mouse and runs away from the wind.
The other commanders of the army who were rescued by Tu Zhengdao were also frightened by the Yun family's power and did not dare to tell the truth.
What's more, most of the investigators of the military committee responsible for investigating this matter are composed of nobles and children of powerful families.
Even if they tell the truth, who can they tell it to?
In the end, the blame for "escaping from battle and causing the entire front to collapse" was firmly placed on Tu Zhengdao's head.
And the backer of his hometown who once swore to him, the realm lord of his hometown, was also angry that he had spent all the disciples brought from his hometown, which greatly damaged the strength of his side of the world, and did not dare to defy the will of the four elector families.
Who is willing to help him?
In this way, Tu Zhengdao fell from a legendary figure in the imperial army, one of the youngest major generals, and a promising golden road, to the bottom of the endless abyss.
He had to lead a death squad composed of criminals to attack the most powerful force of the Holy Alliance.
The military fortress launched a desperate charge, and was eventually shattered into pieces in the tsunami of artillery fire from the Holy Alliance Mountain, and was annihilated.
At least, if Li Linghai hadn't come to the rescue, this would have been Tu Zhengdao's only ending.
After being secretly rescued by Li Linghai, Tu Zhengdao led the surviving suicide squad members and joined the deep sea fleet without hesitation.
The story of Tu Zhengdao is just an ordinary part in the blood-stained history of countless officers and soldiers of the Deep Sea Fleet.
There were countless officers who suffered the same fate as him, even a hundred times more aggrieved and tragic than him.
These people are determined to overthrow the rule of the four Electoral Prince families and establish a new empire and a powerful imperial army!
Not only soldiers, but also countless generals, experts, scholars and civilians such as Master Jin Tianzong were also squeezed and crushed by nobles and nobles in their respective fields.
Either they cannot see the path and space for advancement, or their hard work and career accumulated for decades are forcibly taken away from them, or they are attacked by open and covert arrows in seemingly fair competition, and are eventually ruined or even their families are destroyed, and they are forced to On a dead end called "innovation".
"The rule of the real human empire by the nobles and clans has reached the point where the world is boiling with anger and resentment, and could erupt at any time."

Li Linghai said to Li Yao, "The more the nobles and clans expand and monopolize more interests, the more they compress the living space of most people, push most people to their opposite, and eventually form a powerful 'rebel' alliance'.
“Thousands of people have pointed the finger at nothing, and now, the nobles and noble families headed by the four electorate families have been ‘thousands of people pointed at’.
"After a hundred years of brewing and fermentation, at this moment, the power of our reform faction is more than just the 'Deep Sea Fleet' you see in front of you!"
According to Li Linghai, there are mainly five major parts of the power that the reformists can utilize now.
The most important armed force is naturally the deep-sea fleet.
In the world of cultivating immortals where the jungle prevails, no ideals can be upheld without strong force.
Secondly, there is the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance, which is the main source of information and funds for the reformists.
The name "All Worlds Merchant Alliance" was not unfamiliar to Li Yao, because his nominal deputy, the deputy commander of the Black Wind Fleet, Di Feiwen, was a businessman and had inextricable ties with the All Worlds Merchant Alliance.
According to Di Feiwen, before he left the empire, the merchants and small and medium-sized business alliances that had been operating in the remote star areas of the empire gradually awakened and were eager to compete with the monopoly business groups supported by nobles and clans, and even participate in the politics of the empire.
Go in life.
There are too many jingling crystal coins in your pocket, and it is only natural that you want to forge and control sharper swords to defend your money bag.
Money itself is a bloodthirsty beast.
The power of capital is often even greater than the power of cultivators and immortal cultivators.
If there is a slight chance, these jingling crystal coins will come to life and want to control the entire world.
The Ten Thousand Worlds Merchant Alliance more than a hundred years ago was still quite weak and could only penetrate some remote worlds, or worlds like the Black Wind World that were in the vortex of war, had complex environments, and were relatively independent.
Unexpectedly, today, more than a hundred years later, the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance has become involved with Her Royal Highness the Queen, the center of the empire, and its ambitions are obvious.
The third force is the "Devil Tribunal" located in the "Ji Tian Realm and Tian Ji Star" in the imperial capital.
Underneath this slightly weird name is a terrorist organization that was once terrifying and even terrifying hundreds of years ago.
As the name suggests, the "Devil Tribunal" is a special force specially designed to deal with the invasion of demons and the advent of demons.
It is said that the Heavenly Demon Tribunal raises a group of "witch hunters" who have practiced cruel secret techniques since childhood.
They have extremely keen perception and natural countermeasures against the heavenly demons, which is equivalent to the "Devil-Slaying Department" in the Secret Sword Bureau of the Star Glory Federation. .
As early as six or seven hundred years ago, the Heavenly Demon Tribunal had an expanded and ferocious history.
Their hunting targets were not only limited to Heavenly Demons or people possessed by Heavenly Demons, but also included those cultivators who harmed the public, enriched themselves, were corrupt, or had evil intentions. , became a bloody tool in the struggle between the imperial emperor and the powerful dignitaries at that time.
"A true immortal cultivator should be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and dedicate everything he has to the empire and human civilization!
"Anyone who is corrupt, harms the public, and is greedy for money and power has been invaded by the devil.
His brain has been polluted by the devil and must be purified in the most thorough way!"
In the past, there used to be countless "witch hunters" shouting such slogans, galloping around the world, and "purifying" the enemies of His Majesty the Emperor without mercy.
If the entire brain is burned to the ground, there won't be any demon left, right?
There has been such a "dark history".
In the next five hundred years of imperial history, when the emperor was completely suppressed by the nobles, and the four electoral prince families were all powerful and powerful, it is conceivable how the Demon Tribunal will be suppressed and weakened. .
Today, the Demon Tribunal has been reduced to an existence as insignificant as an appendix in the empire's huge and cumbersome bureaucracy.
If it weren't for the sporadic occurrence of small-scale incidents of demons coming, requiring a large number of cannon fodder to fight with the demons, this organization would have been abolished long ago.
However…… No matter how destitute they are, there are still a large number of "witch hunters" who are loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and have grown up soaked in cruel secrets.
They are dormant in the darkness and carefully guard the various secrets and dark powers they have obtained after thousands of years of fighting with the devil. .
The Queen of the Empire, Li Linghai, discovered the value of the Demonic Tribunal, concealed it, and invested a lot of resources to awaken this dark beast that had been dormant for hundreds of years and become her right-hand man.
Just like Guo Chunfeng's Secret Sword Bureau, Jin Xinyue's Dark Moon Foundation, and Long Yangjun's Ghost Painting Talisman Organization, it is her sharpest blade of darkness!
