Great Xia Mansion.

Just when Liu Wenyan and Su Yu were discussing, there were also people arguing in the City Lord's Mansion.

An empty hall with a handful of people.

Xia Longwu sat up straight and looked straight down.

Below, an old man on the left, a figure like a military advisor in the Great Xia Mansion, was smiling at the moment, listening silently without saying a word.

An old man on the right, elegant and easy-going, also smiling, with silver-white hair, did not speak at the moment.

In addition to these two, a middle-aged-looking strong man in the hall, with strong muscles, stood up alone at this moment, his voice was loud, and he scolded angrily: "Wan Tiansheng, don't preach your set again! This is the Great Xia Mansion, not the Quest Realm!"

The person who was angrily reprimanded by the strong man was the silver-haired old man on the right.

Wan Tiansheng, the sixth generation of the head of the Great Xia Civilization Academy!

Wan Tiansheng's smile was easy-going, even if the strong man scolded angrily, he was calm, his voice was not loud, but he heard it clearly, and said slowly: "Zheng Ping, speak well, don't be so loud, my ears are not deaf, I can hear it." ”

Wan Tiansheng said, still smiling, as if it was just a neighborhood chatter, and said softly: "Long Wuwei should have withdrawn, and he should have fought, and he fought with the Tianyi Divine Clan, and the three thousand guards lost nearly a thousand, and the losses were heavy. ”

"When it's time to light your fist, then it's light, the old man has no opinion. ”

"But now, are you really preparing to destroy the Tianyi Divine Clan?"

Wan Tiansheng looked at Xia Longwu and said softly: "The mansion master should be able to understand, he can't do it." What the Tianyi Divine Clan put on the battlefield of the heavens was only a 10,000-strong guard, not all the main forces. ”

"Continuing the pursuit may create greater results, but more lives will be needed to fill it. ”

"Three thousand dragon martial guards, the mansion master is going to smash them all in?"

Wan Tiansheng said, shook his head and said, "There's no need for this, it's too reckless! At this moment, we should talk about it! Go and talk to the Tianyi Divine Clan, and let the remnants of the Tianyi Divine Clan evacuate at a certain price......"

When he said this, the strong man said angrily: "They have already surrounded them, they are now close to the Jedi, this ten thousand guards can obviously be wiped out, what is your intention to let them go?"

"Did the Tianyi Protoss buy you?"

Wan Tiansheng was not angry, and said with a smile: "Zheng Ping, there is no need to attack in life." I didn't deny that I could take the other side, the key is...... Is it worth it? Three thousand dragon martial guards, how much cost did it cost the Great Xia Mansion to build, and now they are all smashed into it for the sake of a 10,000-strong guard?"

"There are people from your war academy, and there are also people from our civilization academy, all of them are elites, just to fight a ragtag army and throw them in?"

Wan Tiansheng sighed lightly: "Some people don't like to use their brains, they just like to fight and kill, this kind of person...... He should be thrown on the battlefield as a big soldier, and he must not be allowed to command. ”

The strong man said coldly: "I have been in the army for thirty years, and I was killed by the big soldiers!"

“......”

Wan Tiansheng laughed and said softly: "So you just have to be your thug, what do you have to do with the formulation of the big plan?"

The strong man said angrily: "I know you look down on me, and I don't need you to look down on me! But as long as the remaining two thousand dragon martial guards in the Great Xia Mansion are transferred over, it doesn't cost too much to destroy them all!"

The strong man was unwilling to say: "The loss of nearly a thousand people has forced them into a desperate situation, Wan Tiansheng, you let the Great Xia Mansion withdraw at this time, have you considered what Long Wuwei thinks?"

"Are the soldiers on the front line willing?"

"I am a soldier, I understand them! They are unwilling, they are aggrieved, they have lost a third of their comrades, they have the absolute upper hand, they have driven the enemy into a desperate situation at this moment, and they have given up at this moment...... No one can be reconciled!"

The strong man was red-eyed, "In order to win this war, we have paid so many ......"

"So it needs to be made up for back!"

Wan Tiansheng said softly: "Fighting a war is not a reckless battle, Zheng Ping, after so many years, why don't you understand? Sometimes winning or losing is not based on how many people you kill, but how much you gain. ”

"I don't like the way of fighting in the Great Xia Mansion, kill them all, and leave no grass behind!"

"Not good, very bad!"

"If you are like this, it will only inspire the enemy's resistance and will only make them fight to the death and break the boat!"

"When it's time to stop, stop immediately, and let them use resources, martial arts, divine blood, and heavenly treasures to exchange their lives. ”

"The next time, if you start another war, halfway through the battle, they will lose thirty percent, and they will think about surrendering and spending money to buy their lives. ”

"Dismantle their fighting spirit, not inspire it. ”

Wan Tiansheng sighed and said: "The Great Xia Mansion has fought so many battles over the years, yes, it kills the enemy the most every time, but it is also the one with the greatest loss and the smallest gain every time!"

"The fighting spirit of the enemy has been stimulated by you, and all the clans in the Heavenly Battlefield know that when they encounter the people of the Great Zhou Mansion, they can spend money to buy their lives if they can't win, and they have encountered the Great Xia Mansion...... Then fight to the death!"

"Zhou Potian has done a good job in this, and even the Daming Mansion is doing better than us. ”

"I have strong soldiers in Daxia Mansion, and I am invincible in all provinces on the battlefield, but ...... What about the loss? What about the pension?"

Wan Tiansheng shook his head and sighed: "Zheng Ping, I think the mansion master should send you to the treasury to have a look and see the treasury...... It's empty!"

Zheng Ping's body shook slightly, and he looked at Xia Longwu.

Xia Longwu, who had been silent, saw Zheng Ping's eyes at this moment, and said calmly: "The treasury is not sufficient, but it doesn't matter, the foundation of the Great Xia Mansion is consumed!"

Wan Tiansheng chuckled and said, "What does the Mansion Master mean...... Keep fighting?"

Xia Longwu looked at him and said indifferently: "Wan Tiansheng, you have said something right, the Great Xia Mansion has a war, the biggest loss and the smallest gain." I know these things better than you, but over the years, I have only listened to what you have said, but I have never taken it seriously, do you know why?"

Wan Tiansheng was not surprised, and said slowly: "I understand, the mansion master needs to train the strongest army of the human race! Let the human race have a vanguard army that can fight fierce battles!"

"If only you understood!"

Xia Longwu stood up and said in a cold voice: "In the past, the Great Zhou Mansion was the strongest! The Great Zhou army swept through the battlefield of the heavens and was invincible! At that time, they were like this, and if they were victorious, the enemy could spend money to buy their lives. ”

"One year, two years...... 10 years and 100 years!"

"When they fought in the heavens and obviously forced the enemy into a desperate situation, they thought that they could close the net and harvest, but ...... They were wrong! That elite Protoss legion, fight to the death!"

"With 10,000 troops, the 100,000 army of the careless Great Zhou Dynasty was defeated! The Great Zhou army has forgotten to fight to the death, and has forgotten to fight to the death! 100,000 troops...... It's a crash!"

Xia Longwu sneered and said, "This is the battle of Luozhou Sea recorded by the human race!"

"One hundred thousand of the most elite legions were defeated by a remnant army! Unbelievable, all the heavens and all the races were shocked, and all the races suddenly discovered...... The most elite legion of the Terrans is actually a paper tiger!"

Xia Longwu's face turned cold, "The Great Zhou Army, which is known as invincible, has shattered the myth like this! Because they are used to fighting, they ...... Why are so many people dying?"

Xia Longwu looked at Wan Tiansheng and said in a deep voice: "The lesson of the past is in front of you, Wan Tiansheng, do you still think that it is unnecessary to fight a tough battle?"

"Not really. ”

Wan Tiansheng shook his head, and then said: "But the Great Xia Mansion really can't hold on! Mansion Lord, Zhang Chi has a way, you can't completely deny the Great Zhou Army because of a defeat, the Great Zhou Army can quickly rise again, just because they have gained a lot in the past, so they can quickly build another elite corps!"

"And our Great Xia Mansion ...... If you lose Long Wuwei, if you want to build another Long Wuwei, it's difficult, it's too difficult!"

Xia Longwu looked at him and looked down at him.

Wan Tiansheng did not evade, looked directly at Xia Longwu, and said again: "Withdraw the army, negotiate, and use resources to buy your life!"

"I, Xia Longwu, am the soul of the Great Xia Mansion, I can't retreat!"

"Then you have to retreat!"

The previous elegant Wantian Saint was aggressive, his eyes sharp, "Don't retreat, the Great Xia Civilization Academy will never provide a single soldier to Long Wuwei again, and there will never be a civilized division to enter Long Wuwei to fight again!"

"You're threatening me?"

Xia Longwu's tone was low, Wan Tiansheng got up, his face was serious, "Don't retreat, I'd rather let the teachers and students in the academy defect to the Great Zhou Mansion than let the sons and daughters of the academy die on the battlefield of the heavens in order to achieve your Xia Longwu's name!"

"Bastard!"

Zheng Ping said angrily: "Wan Tiansheng, you want to betray the Great Xia Mansion?"

"No, I'm saving the Great Xia Mansion, I'm willing to fight for the human race, not for the only husband!"

Wan Tiansheng suddenly took off the crown on his head, and said in a deep voice: "Wan Tiansheng please resign as the head of the Great Xia Civilization!"

Xia Longwu stared at him for a long time, but he didn't say anything for a long time.

At this moment, the old man on the left laughed and said loudly: "Governor Wan, don't tease Governor Zheng." ”

Zheng Ping frowned and looked at them, a little unhappy, what do you mean?

The old man chuckled and said, "Retreat, you still have to retreat." The Great Xia Mansion has been fighting for decades, and the fight is too hard, and the losses are too great. This is why the lord of the mansion has summoned you to talk about this matter. ”

"Since you guessed it, why bother to lose face ...... the lord of the mansion?"

Wan Tiansheng pretended to be at a loss, "What do you mean?"

The old man smiled, shook his head and said, "You, it's still the same as back then." Let me tell you, you can't be calmer if you're noisy?"

"The lord of the mansion wants to retreat...... But it can't be returned. He is a banner of the human race, and he is also the soul of the Great Xia Mansion, he has retired, what do the front-line soldiers think?"

"He's not a shameless Zhu Tiandao......"

The originally tense hall suddenly burst into laughter.

Even Xia Longwu, who was not smiling, sat down at this moment, coughed lightly and said, "Nonsense! Don't talk nonsense, Lord Zhu...... Ahem, you still have to have a face when you should have a face. ”

Everyone laughed, and the old man laughed too, "Yes, the old man is wrong." Let's not talk about that person, and continue with the topic just now. Retreating from the army was a must, and it was impossible for Long Wuwei to exchange the price of thousands of people for the ten thousand guards of the Tianyi Divine Sect. ”

"Not in the name of the lord of the house. ”

"The Mansion Master has killed several Tianyi Divine Sect powerhouses, and he needs to retreat immediately. ”

"The two of you have been summoned here today for a few days...... The lord of the mansion retreated, and Xiahou Ye temporarily took the position of the lord of the mansion, at that time...... Ten Thousand Heavenly Saints, come back to this today. ”

The old man smiled and said: "Let Xiahou Ye retire from the army!" The lord of the mansion is in retreat, and he doesn't care about anything, it has nothing to do with him. ”

"Even if the front-line soldiers are dissatisfied, it doesn't matter, Xiahou Ye won't care about this. ”

"Xiahou Ye is a businessman, let him go and talk to the Tianyi Divine Clan about compensation, losses, and costs, at that time, the Tianyi Divine Clan will not doubt it, let alone let the heavens and all the clans see the weakness of the Great Xia Mansion. ”

At this moment, Zheng Ping understood, and couldn't help but scold: "Old horseman, is this appropriate......? Every time you have a black cauldron, you throw it on his head, and now there are countless infamy......

"So I don't care about one more infamy. ”

The old man smiled and said: "Chief Zheng, Chief Wan is actually right, the treasury of the Great Xia Mansion is almost empty, and it really can't be fought like this anymore." We can't build a second dragon guard, this group of strong soldiers and fierce generals are finished, and the elite of the Great Xia Mansion will be finished!"

"It's just the Tianyi Divine Clan, and it's not to directly destroy their Divine Clan, why bother staring at a team of 10,000 guards. The lord of the mansion is in retreat, Xiahou Ye takes office, his old man loves money and not fame, and all the heavens and all the clans know it. ”

"He chose to withdraw from the army, let the Tianyi Divine Clan compensate, and fill the treasury of the Great Xia Mansion, who can have an opinion?"

The old man smiled brightly, "The Tianyi Divine Clan will probably be happy, fortunately, it is Xiahou Ye who took office, and it is not the mansion master who continues to be in charge of the Dragon Martial Guard, otherwise this 10,000 guards will really be finished." ”

"The lord of the mansion is known for not bowing his head, and if the lord of the mansion retreats from the army at this time, it will make people feel incredible, and they feel that the Great Xia Mansion is ...... It's really going to be over. ”

Zheng Ping wanted to speak and stopped, and only after a while did he say in a muffled voice: "Is it really so serious?"

"Really, the treasury is really empty. ”

The old man sighed: "Otherwise, after so many years of fighting, how could he choose to compromise at this time." The Tianyi Divine Clan still dared to enter the Great Xia Mansion, according to the previous attitude, if they didn't hurt them, they would never stop!"

"But now, it's really time to raise troops. ”

The old man said seriously: "The lord of the mansion chose this time to retreat, and he also has this consideration. can't fight anymore, not only Long Wuwei, but also the Demon Suppression Army has issued many veteran conscription orders, and the losses are too great, including the Demon Suppression Army, and it will have to be stopped for a while in the next period of time. ”

"The Great Xia Mansion seems to be powerful, but in fact it is already in flux, it has made a name for itself over the years, and it is necessary to choose to recuperate at this moment!"

"When will the Great Xia Mansion recover its vitality, and when will the Mansion Master go out again!"

"At that time, it was also the time when the mansion master was invincible!"

On the side, Xia Longwu said lightly: "I originally wanted to kill the Heavenly Battlefield in the near future, slaughter him as a king, and help me ascend to this realm......!" In order to be perfect, to recuperate, this battle has been postponed, and in a few years, I believe that the Great Xia Mansion can recover its vitality!"

"The lord of the mansion is wise!"

The Ten Thousand Heavenly Saints greeted and said: "The Mansion Lord has made this choice, and the Great Xia Mansion is hopeful!"

Xia Longwu didn't eat this, and said lightly: "Don't you want to resign? It's better to do this, you will resign at the ceremony in a few days! Since Zhou Potian is willing to ask you, then you will go over." ”

"The mansion master laughed!"

The face of the Ten Thousand Heavens did not change, "It was just a rehearsal just now, in case during the ceremony, Xiahou Ye saw the clues, and the others saw the truth and reality." Zhou Potian, old and cunning, disdainful of company!"

"Huh!"

Xia Longwu let out a sneer, "That's the ...... Convey Zhou Potian!"

He said to the old man on his left.

The old man laughed, looked at Zheng Ping, and said with a smile: "Governor Zheng, you will convey this words to the Lord of the Zhou Mansion and the Minister of the Wan Mansion, not a word is missed, and all of them will be conveyed!"

Zheng Ping's face was dark, and he didn't say anything.

Xia Longwu ignored them, got up and said, "This matter is so decided!" Long Wuwei quickly evacuated, the Tianyi Divine Clan needs to pay the price, and I ...... Retreat, on the day of exit, take his Tianyi Divine Clan!"

The following people should be, and no one has any more opinions.

Wan Tiansheng smiled, and when he left, he glanced at Zheng Ping and sighed: "Reckless, lack and strategy!"

Zheng Ping's face darkened, "Old horseman, this year's exchanges in various provinces, waiting for your house to cry!"

Wan Tiansheng didn't care, but smiled happily, "I'll wait, fight, hit hard! In previous years, the people of your war academy were too soft, their fists were too light, and they didn't eat." ”

"If you go again this year, I will provide you with 10,000 catties of blood food for free, eat more, use more strength, beat away half of the students, and I will send you a pennant. There are too many people in the civilized school, what do you want so many people to do?"

Wan Tiansheng shook his head and said: "A group of mediocre talents, I have long wanted to streamline the organization, if it weren't for that group of old guys to stop me, I would have recruited up to 1,000 people every year! Lao Zheng, I'm going to trouble you this time, work hard, I've beaten away a thousand people, I will personally lead the teachers and students of the academy to send pennants to you!"

Zheng Ping's face became more and more ugly, this old horseman, he had never won a fight with him!

Wan Tiansheng smiled, slowly walked out of the hall, and said with emotion: "Great Xia War Academy...... Hey, the Longwu Academy is a bit of a sight, but it's a pity that you have a Great Xia War Academy, really, if you don't fight away thousands of people this year, I look down on you!"

When the words fell, the Ten Thousand Heavenly Saints had disappeared in front of him.

Zheng Ping left, and suddenly said weakly: "This old horseman is getting more and more difficult! Mansion Master, is the Great Xia Mansion really going to turn from offensive to defensive?"

Beside him, Xia Longwu, who had just left, reappeared again at some point.

Watching Wan Tian Sheng leave, Xia Longwu was silent for a moment, and said softly: "It's not guarding, it's waiting! Waiting for the vitality to recover! Wan Tian Sheng has waited for so many years, and when the Great Xia Mansion is powerless, so ...... He won. ”

Zheng Ping sighed again: "I'm a little afraid. ”

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid...... Lost fighting spirit, lost confidence, lost morale. ”

Zheng Ping looked sideways at Xia Longwu, and said with a complicated look in his eyes: "I'm afraid that after retreating, the Great Xia Mansion will ...... People's hearts will also change with this retreat!"

"Sooner or later, it will come. ”

Xia Longwu said lightly: "You can't fight for a lifetime, until the veteran retires, you have to return to fight again! Cultivation now is stronger than cultivation when you can't fight. ”

"Lao Zheng, the War Academy has also suffered heavy losses over the years, it's time to rest. ”

After Xia Longwu finished speaking, he stopped talking, a little gloomy.

It's been a lifetime, and at this time, he can't be any stronger.

He said that he looked down on Zhu Tiandao and Zhou Potian, but in fact, he ...... Some admire, some envy.

"At least...... Their sons and daughters died in battle less than my Great Xia Mansion......"

With a muttering in his heart, Xia Longwu's eyes showed a trace of bitterness, he wanted to continue fighting, but reality did not allow him to continue.

Desperate for military force!

The Great Xia Mansion is like cooking oil on fire at the moment, seemingly full of flowers, but in fact, it is already in crisis.

"Ten Thousand Heavenly Saints...... After so many years of fighting, I want to see what you can change?"

Xia Longwu whispered in his heart, he also wanted to see what step the Ten Thousand Heavenly Saints could take.

"Civilized Academy...... The next frontier, I hope there won't be a mess, teacher...... Can you really control it?"

Xia Longwu chuckled, Teacher, yes, that was his enlightenment mentor.

But after all these years, he almost forgot about it.
