Chapter 185: Discord and Seizure of Power
"I didn't expect that in this dilapidated small town, there is such a passable general's mansion!"
Huang Zhu sat on the main seat of the hall of the General's Mansion, observing the hall with satisfaction, sometimes nodding from time to time, and his hand couldn't help but tap the armrest of the general's chair. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The other four elders also took their seats, and although they were dissatisfied with the poor environment in the General's Mansion, they gradually accepted this fact.
"Wen Liang, the guard of the Mi family, meet the five elders!" Wen Liang half-bowed and respectfully bowed to the five elders above.
Xiao Xuan also bowed slightly, and said, "Xiao Xuan, who has seen a few seniors!"
When the five elders saw the two of them saluting to themselves, they only raised their eyebrows and did not respond, still looking at the two of them with a lofty expression.
Baicao Parish Tian stroked his beard and said, "I heard...... It was a few of you who led more than a thousand soldiers and horses to defeat the tens of thousands of troops of the Qingling Demon King? It seems that the descendants of the broken water flow are doing a good job under General Wen Liang!"
Wen Liang still bowed his head and said: "To be precise, the biggest contributor to being able to repel the Qingling Demon King this time is the disciples who broke the flow of water, and they are just cooperating with them!"
Feng Dianmen Hu Dong said with a disdainful face: "Hmph, it's just a small skill of carving insects, do you think that such a fluke will appear a second time? If they hadn't heard that we were coming and fled in a hurry, you would have become their sword ghosts a long time ago!"
Li Lu of the Flame Hall also said: "That's it, you have nothing to be proud of in this matter, don't be complacent in the future, just watch how we defeat the demons!"
Although Xiao Xuan's cultivation was excellent, after listening to their words at this moment, a trace of dissatisfaction gradually rose in his heart.
They are simply denying their victory after the bloody battle, for fear that we will take advantage of this victory and override them!
But although Xiao Xuan had seen through their intentions in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, and just said lightly: "There are still things to deal with in the future, please forgive the juniors for retiring first!"
Wen Liang saw that Xiao Xuan was leaving, and he had nothing to say to the five elders, so he also arched his hand and said, "Elders, the humble position has also retired!"
Huang Zhu, who was the leader, waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Hmm...... I know, you can step aside, and hand over the talisman and flag here tomorrow, and Mijia Town will be in charge of us from tomorrow!"
Hearing this, Xiao Xuan and Wen Liang glanced at each other, and they could both see the surprise and uneasiness in each other's eyes, but they retreated without saying anything.
Walking out of the General's Mansion, Wen Liang's lips opened slightly, as if he had something to say, but Xiao Xuan took the lead and said: "I know what General Wen wants to say, but this is not the place to speak, please come to the residence where the water is broken!"
Wen Liang heard Xiao Xuan's words, swallowed the words that had reached his mouth, and slowly followed Xiao Xuan towards the place where the water was broken.
And in the residence, the arrival of reinforcements has long been hotly discussed, and all kinds of complaints and speculations continue to fill the entire residence.
And in one room, the two teams at the core of the broken water flow and Du Yu are also talking about this problem, and the center of the talker is undoubtedly the well-deserved think tank in the broken water flow, Shan Hu!
However, this time Shan Hu changed his usual positive attitude, and instead lowered his head and carefully flipped through a book, without the slightest intention of speaking.
Yuan Jia was naturally among them, he took the initiative to sit in a more remote position because of his seniority, and Dongfang Shiyin naturally sat on the side with him.
Everyone looked at Shan Hu, and no one knew what to say for a while, and they fell into a strange calm.
Du Yu looked at everyone's eyes, and finally took the lead in speaking: "Shan Hu, do you have nothing to say about the arrival of reinforcements this time?"
Shan Hu's gaze still did not leave the book in his hand, and said casually: "You guys talk about it yourself." I don't want to give an opinion just yet, I just want to hear it. ”
Du Yu understands that in the previous decision-making, it was all Shan Hu's own decision-making, and it was also because Shan Hu had absolute confidence in his own strategy, but the "lesson" he brought to him on the battlefield last time may have begun to give him the idea of listening to others' opinions, so that he is no longer so arbitrary.
However, perhaps it was himself and others who relied too much on Shan Hu in the past, so this time Shan Hu asked everyone to say it first, so as to see everyone's level!
"Okay, everyone, I'll talk about it first!" Du Yu took the lead in speaking: "Although Xiao Xuan has not yet returned from the General's Mansion, we can also see at that time that in addition to resisting the demons, the most important purpose of their coming this time is nothing more than to seize the command of the front line, so that they can make a name for themselves in the future!
Wu Jianyu frowned and said, "Then what if I can't help it?"
Du Yu said with a serious face: "I can't help it, I have to endure it, otherwise we will all receive persecution from them!"
Hu Fu rushed out of his nose with two rude breaths, and said quite unconvinced: "Hmph! I obviously fought hard to win the battle, and now I still have to suffer this anger!
Du Yu didn't respond to him, obviously he was also a little worried about this matter.
Wang Qing suddenly asked, "Then what should we do next? Do we continue to follow our method, or cooperate with them until the demons retreat?"
Everyone present was also stumped by this question, and Shan Hu was still calmly flipping through the book, as if he didn't care what they were talking about.
At this time, a crisp voice sounded from the corner of the room, Yuan Jia raised his hand slightly, and said softly: "Senior brothers, I have an idea, I don't know if it will work. ”
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, they knew that this was the first time they had known Yuan Jia for so long that they had seen him speak when discussing something collectively, and even Shan Hu seemed to have stopped his movements in some surprise, looked at Yuan Jia with interest and said, "Tell me about it!"
Yuan Jia said: "My idea is that now that the threat in front of Mijia Town has been lifted for the time being, then since we have solved this urgent need, and the reinforcements from Flying Stone City have also arrived in Mijia Town, can we consider taking a step back and moving to Mijia Village to stand by?"
This proposal instantly aroused everyone's interest, and Shan Hu also closed the book in his hand, straightened his body and said, "It's a little interesting! ”
Yuan Jia nodded and continued: "After I saw the attitude of those elders at that time, I knew that if we coexisted with them in the same town, there would definitely be a lot of trouble, and when the time came, not only would we lose more than we gained, but we might also be taken advantage of by the demons to break Mijia Town!" So I'm thinking, if we give up our current rights in Mijia Town and retreat to Mijiazhuang as the main city, so that we don't have to fight with the five factions, secondly, we can also avoid some potential infighting, so as not to let the demons have a chance, and thirdly, if they have no way to resist the demon army, then we can also support them at any time in Mijiazhuang, isn't this the best of both worlds!"
