Chapter 360: Take a Step Back
If it is to rectify the army, or to deal with some special events unconventionally, Meng Jianwen can be a stand-in for General Xiang, even if he is a little wronged, he doesn't care.
Now when it comes to the Netheryin Gate, the Kingdom of Sartre, this matter is big, so big that it can be solved without brotherly love.
The Youyin Sect is notorious, purely in terms of strength, it may not be stronger than the Xuantian Sect, but his methods are very spicy.
Relying on the unique geographical location of the Nine Shadows City, in the past hundred years, the momentum of development has been rapid, and there is a tendency to replace the Xuantian Sect and become the first sect in the Tianluo Continent.
The Nine Shadows City is located in the west, with a murderous aura, coupled with the gathering of a large number of swordsmiths, and the high-quality ore raw materials of the Qilian Mountains, it has created countless excellent weapons.
Generally, martial arts cultivators fight, and it is normal for the side with high cultivation to win, and the disparity in strength is too great, it can be said to be a one-sided killing, and most of the battles are between martial cultivators who are close to or similar in cultivation.
This kind of battle often depends on factors other than cultivation strength, such as murderous aura, and the weapons in hand.
The West belongs to gold, and the murderous aura is heavy, and the disciples of the Youyin Sect in the Nine Secluded City are all murderous, and when they face the enemy, the fierce murderous aura vented on their bodies is enough to deter opponents of the same level.
The battle has not yet started, and the momentum has already been won, this is the innate advantage of the disciples of the Youyin Sect.
Of course, taking advantage of the best weapons in their hands can improve their strength, so that they can occupy a more advantageous situation in the battle of the same level.
Yin Wuwei, the master of the Youyin Gate, has coveted the entire Tianluo Continent for many years, and is in a high position as the prime minister of the Sartre Kingdom, he is insidious and cunning, and he is also very good at restraining King Yuwenze.
Not only that, but he also sent disciples of the Youyin Sect to infiltrate everywhere and win over various forces.
His purpose is to become the master of the entire Tianluo Continent, so that everyone will bow down to him under his feet.
To achieve such an end, it is necessary to go through a large-scale, even destructive, war, in which all the members of the Netherworld Gate are simply not enough to start this war.
However, many forces, including some small countries, did not dare to offend the Youyin Gate, for fear of being assassinated, framed, and ruining their good future.
Their show of weakness has further fueled the strength of the Youyin Gate, and under coercion and temptation, many forces have chosen to cooperate with the Yin Yin Gate and become accomplices and lackeys of Yin Wuwei.
Twenty years ago, someone once mentioned yì, united with Xuantian Sect, and other chivalrous people to go to the Nine Hidden City to exterminate the Youyin Gate in one fell swoop.
However, the old nest of the Yin Gate, not far from the Great Rift Valley of the Yin Mountain, is said to maintain a certain connection with the ghost domain that is about to move.
If this is the case, the slightest mistake may cause a commotion in the ghost domain.
An idle person sealed the ghost domain with the Wuji Sword 20,000 years ago, and now that the deadline is approaching, the power of the Wuji Sword is gradually weakening, and the ghost domain even has a chance to break through the seal.
It's just that they are afraid of the power and don't dare to openly provoke the Infinite Sword, but there are some remote areas, after a long period of Yin Qi corrosion, there are already signs of unstable seals.
Once the seal is broken, the Ghost Domain will endanger the human race, and there will be almost no one in the entire Tianluo Continent to compete with it.
Because of this, the plan to encircle and suppress the Netherworld Gate was declared a failure before it was implemented.
Since then, Yin Wuwei has become even more blatant, and the activities of the Yin Gate have become more and more rampant.
In addition to taking precautions and trying to preserve their own strength, there are no other targeted methods.
Secretly, the vast majority of people are cursing Yin Wuwei, but on the surface, they don't dare to provoke the Yin Gate.
"I don't want the sheep to have anything to do with the Netherworld, but I can't stop it. ”
Meng Jianwen was reluctant to be an official, feeling that he was too restrained and not living a chic life, but he was even more reluctant to betray his country and do things with Youyinmen.
Considering that the two were sworn brothers, he moved with affection and reason, and tried his best to persuade General Xiang and begged him to give up the Youyin Gate.
"Wenwen, those who know the times are Junjie, since Yin Wuwei has the power to dominate the world, I am not his opponent, and the best protection is to take refuge. ”
General Xiang's reason seems to be more sufficient, it is better to be a dead end for the enemy, and it is better to have a united front.
"Sheep and sheep, the ghost gate is dangerous in the world, to the point where the rats crossing the street and everyone shouts and beats, why do you bother to join it?"
Meng Jianwen found a reason that was unfavorable to the Yin Gate and persuaded him.
"Yes, everyone shouts and fights, but everyone doesn't fight, who dares to openly oppose the Yin Gate?"
The two brothers used to be trying to change each other for their own persistence: "As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to perch on......"
"Yes, there is another sentence, the good minister chooses the lord and does things..."Meng Jianwen interrupted him and continued: "Although His Majesty the King does not seem to be as strong as Yin Wuwei, he always thinks about how to get out of the trapped situation, and never gives up the fight against the Yin Gate. ”
"Such a Lord is a good Lord worthy of our service... Over the years, the General's Mansion has occupied the best mineral resources in the eastern part of the Qilian Mountains, and has not handed over a single cent to the country. ”
Meng Jianwen had no intention of being an official, but he also knew some of the patterns of the Tianluo Continent and the agreements between the kings of the five major countries.
There are dozens of countries in the Tianluo Continent, large and small, with the five kingdoms at the top, the first-class kingdom Tianluo Kingdom, and the second-class kingdom with four, namely the Luoying Kingdom, the Xiali Kingdom, the Sartre Kingdom and the Xuanbing Kingdom.
His Majesty, the kings of the five kingdoms, had promised each other to live in peace with each other, not to invade their borders, and not to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.
If any of the countries have wolf ambitions and raise troops to invade the country, the other four countries can jointly attack it.
General Xiang guarded the east of the Sutter Kingdom, bounded by the Qilian Mountains, and faced the Tianluo Kingdom.
If there were no special circumstances, General Xiang would never have experienced war in his life.
Yuwen Ze of the Sartre Kingdom had already hinted to General Xiang that he wanted to prevent the Youyin Gate from making trouble and invade the Tianluo Kingdom through Guò Qilian Town.
The greatest value of General Xiang's preservation is to ensure that the eastern border is not controlled by the Yin Gate.
"However, have you ever thought that once Yin Wuwei takes action, he will inevitably pass through here, and I am the first target he will overcome. ”
General Xiang said worriedly: "With my hundreds of thousands of horses, if I want to stop the footwork of the Youyin Gate, it is undoubtedly to hit the stone with an egg and block the car with a mantis arm. ”
"If it really comes to that point, His Majesty the King will definitely send troops to support, and will never let the Netheryin Gate open the portal from here. ”
Meng Jianwen calmly analyzed: "Besides, if everyone is united, Yin Wuwei may not be sure enough to provoke a world war." ”
If Yin Wuwei wants to achieve its goal, it is far from enough to rely on the strength of the Yin Gate, it must be disintegrated and differentiated, as well as co-opted and utilized, in order to be able to strengthen its strength.
The power of the entire Tianluo Continent is not monolithic, and there are actually not a few that can be used by Yin Wuwei.
"Wenwen, if you don't understand the current situation, we don't have to dwell on this. ”
Neither of the two could convince anyone, and General Xiang began to change his strategy: "Brothers are united in their interests, and we should advance and retreat together." ”
"We can be informal, but we can't leave a stigma. Meng Jianwen still insisted on his opinion.
Since the sworn brothers, the relationship has been good, and there have been no major disputes.
General Xiang likes to mess with flowers and grass, and will always get some women back, which makes the backyard often noisy.
Especially when I first came, I couldn't help but feel aggrieved when I saw the wives and concubines of the generals who were preconceived and preconceived.
The subtle ones cried and cried, and the spicy ones left in a hurry.
Sometimes, Meng Jianwen couldn't bear it, and secretly let it go a few times to avoid a fire in the backyard.
In fact, every time, General Xiang knew that he usually dragged Meng Jianwen outside, found a place where no one was there, and beat him up, and never really held him accountable.
But today is different, in order to seek a way out, one chooses to vote for the 'Ming' lord after weighing it, and the other emphasizes loyalty to the monarch and the people, and opposes acting for the tiger.
This is the first time that the brothers have had a difference of opinion on a serious incident, and the two sides are stubborn and argue with red faces and thick necks.
In the end, General Xiang calmed things down and retreated first: "Forget it, we are brothers, don't hurt the harmony for this matter, wait for you to come back from the Nine Shadows City, and then make a decision." ”
General Xiang hoped that by escorting the ore to the Nine Hidden Cities this time, Dream Sword Wentong Guò would be able to feel the strength of the Youyin Gate and the official decline of the Sartre Kingdom.
In order to support his decision from the bottom of his heart and seek a good way out for the General's Mansion.
Although Meng Jianwen did not agree with the General's Mansion to take refuge in the Youyin Gate, he was still very moved when he saw General Xiang take the initiative to retreat.
At that moment, he promised that he would never reveal anything about General Xiang's contact with the Youyin Gate to the officials of the Sartre Kingdom to prevent it from being used by others.
"Do you think General Xiang will change his mind?"
Yichen didn't know what General Xiang was, but he vaguely felt that he would not give up his decision.
"I hope so, I can't guarantee it. "Meng Jianwen told the truth, after this incident, there seemed to be some strangeness between him and General Xiang.
If the argument continues, no matter who is right or wrong, as long as we can reach an agreement, maybe we will feel better with each other.
Meng Jianwen thought that even if he was scolded by General Xiang, he would try his best to prevent the cooperation between the General's Mansion and the Youyin Gate.
He couldn't do it when he saw his brother go down the wrong path and pretend to be indifferent.
However, General Xiang's concession made Meng Jianwen feel like a punch in the air, without a response, which was also the reason why he was sullen.
On the surface, it seems that taking a step back and not hurting the brothers is the best result.
In fact, not only has the problem not been resolved, but it has become stricter, and the avoidance has made the contradiction temporarily hidden, but it still exists.
"Alas, I'm going to Nine Shadows City tomorrow, what's the matter, let's talk about it later......"
"Wenwen, Wenwen. Before Meng Jianwen could finish his words, he was interrupted by a loud voice.
I saw Jing Jing coming from outside, slammed open the half-covered door, and said to Meng Jianwen:
"You are not allowed to go to the Nine Ghost City..."
