Chapter 285: Next Steps
Qiu Wentian clenched his steel teeth when he heard this, but he didn't speak, at this moment, everything he said was in vain, just like what Li Tong said, leaving Qingshan without worrying about no firewood.
Qiu Wentian left, and he walked decisively, without even looking back, although the terrible screams of the remaining soldiers of the coalition army echoed in his ears.
Nangong Ruoli also did not leave Qiu Wentian, and the remaining coalition soldiers were all annihilated in a few moments.
It's not that Nangong Ruoli doesn't have compassion, and now these coalition soldiers are different from those who let go before.
Among these warriors, there is the White Tiger Army, and if they are let back, it is likely to disrupt Nangong Ruoli's next deployment.
In the first battle of Qinghua City, the 400,000 troops of Beicang Ben, plus the 250,000 troops brought by Nangong Ruoli, only killed less than 70,000, this is not counting those who were killed by the Mixed Yuan Wuji Heaven Dou Great Array before, and the Five Elements Banner only had a few minor injuries.
However, the 700,000 troops of the coalition army were all disintegrated, and this battle can be described as perfect.
At the end of the war, all the soldiers raised their heads and shouted, shaking the heavens and the earth, in the past few years, all the grievances and hardships have been released.
After the success of the first battle, Qiu Wentian retreated, and most of the main forces of the coalition army were wiped out, leaving only nearly 300,000 remnant troops, and retreated with Qiu Wentian to the border between the Longteng Empire and the Wuhua Empire.
Beicang Ben was even more excited, and took Nangong Ruoli's arm and entered Tsinghua City together.
Kitakura Jing followed behind the two with a flushed face, and the words her father said before the war were still wrapped in her ears.
In the past, she didn't dare to accept Nangong Ruoli, mostly because of her father, Beicang Ben's age was the same generation as Nangong Ruoli's grandfather.
If he and Nangong Ruoli really get married, then his father's generation will undoubtedly be lowered by one generation, which is commensurate with Nangong Lie's brothers, and Beicang Ben is also an arrogant generation, so he naturally will not agree.
So it was because she thought of this that she had always suppressed her feelings for Nangong Ruoli.
It's just that at this time, his father actually agreed to the matter of his separation from Nangong Ruo, and it seemed that he had picked up a big bargain, and Beicang Jing was also very happy in his heart.
But at the same time, the shyness that belonged to the daughter's family also poured out, and the red glow on her pretty face has not faded from the victory in the battle to the present.
"Ruoli, you really opened my eyes!" Beicang Ben said with a laugh, looking at Nangong Ruoli's gaze, he was also unusually amiable.
Nangong Ruoli, who has always been arrogant and stinky, heard Beicangben's praise, but his face turned red for the first time, and he said a little embarrassed: "Hehe, this is purely accidental, accidental... ”
"That's not right!" Bei Cangben's face sank slightly, and said: "Qiu Wentian's tactical level is very superb, I have been fighting with him for so many years, and I have never taken any advantage, you defeated him by chance, are you saying that my old man is useless?"
"Of course not!" Nangong Ruoli smiled and said, "I'm just being modest, how can I say that my father-in-law is like this?"
Hearing the word "father-in-law", the smile on Beicangben's face rippled again, and he immediately spoke: "Ruoli, you see the matter between you and Xiao Jing, why don't we do it directly!"
Nangong Ruoli was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
"What? you don't want to?" Beicang Ben couldn't help but ask when he saw Nangong Ruoli's expression.
"Dad-" The red glow on Beicang Jing's face spread directly to her neck, and she glanced at her father fiercely, and said coquettishly.
Nangong Ruoli's head shook like a rattle, and then he said: "Of course not, I am naturally very willing, father-in-law, I also want to get married as soon as possible, but now the war is not over, my father and mother are not here, I am afraid it is not good!"
"Hehe! Look at my old fool!" Beicang Ben smiled, and then slapped his head fiercely, and said: "This matter will be talked about later, and I will discuss it when I meet with your father, damn, I have been reduced to a generation, Nangong Lie's kid is beautiful now!"
In Tsinghua City, Beicang Ben held a banquet to reward the three armies, and at the same time, it was also for Nangong Ruoli to catch the wind.
After three rounds of drinking, with a little drunkenness, Beicang Ben looked at Nangong Ruoli and said: "Ruoli, after such a battle, Qiu Wentian's vitality has been greatly injured, and in a short period of time, he will not organize a large army to wage war against us, and he will finally be able to rest for a while, otherwise my old bones will really not be able to hold on!"
Nangong Ruoli's eyes flickered when he heard this, and said, "Father-in-law, now you want to take a good rest, but it's really not the time, I'm afraid you will have to wait a few years!"
Beicang Ben couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, and said with some doubts: "Ruoli, what do you mean?"
"Could it be that my father-in-law is just thinking about driving Qiu Wentian out of the Dragon Teng Empire, and it's over?" Nangong Ruoli's smile gradually rippled from the corner of his mouth.
Beicang Ben looked at Nangong Ruoli with some surprise and asked, "Ruoli, are you-"
Nangong Ruoli nodded and smiled, and then spoke: "Although the Wuhua Empire will be forced back by us for the time being, since they can invade us once, there will definitely be a second time! So this time, we must take advantage of the victory to pursue and completely pull out this tumor!"
Beicang Ben couldn't help but widen his eyes, he didn't expect that Nangong Ruoli actually wanted to destroy the entire Wuhua Empire.
He asked himself that he had been fighting for many years, and his grasp and ambition for the battle were already not small, but compared with the kid in front of him, it seemed that he was still much worse.
The idea of this little guy is also bold.
It was a medium-sized empire, an empire with a land area similar to that of the Dragon Empire, and it was not a small empire that could be destroyed casually.
Even in this battle, the Wuhua Empire was greatly damaged, but the Dragon Teng Empire was no better, and it was probably not a wise choice to meet it at this time.
Thinking of this, Beicang Ben spoke: "If you leave, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to attack the Wuhua Empire now." ”
At that moment, he said all his thoughts to dispel Nangong Ruoli's thoughts.
Unexpectedly, Nangong Ruoli smiled slightly and said, "Father-in-law, I'm afraid that the news of the attack of the Desolate Venerable has long been known to your old man!"
Seeing Beicang Ben nodding, Nangong Ruoli smiled and said the five-year covenant between You and Huangzun, and Beicang Ben was shocked again and again.
He didn't expect that it was for this reason that Desovent bypassed the Dragon Teng Empire and directly took the Xuanwu Empire.
Without waiting for him to speak, Nangong Ruoli continued: "Now it is less than a year since the five-year covenant, and once the five-year covenant is over, the first one that Desovent wants to get rid of is naturally our Dragon Teng Empire, because in his eyes, we are a cancer, and if we are not eliminated, he will never rest assured of his rear." ”
Kitakura nodded slightly.
But I heard Nangong Ruoli continue: "So in this last year, we must expand our strength as much as possible, otherwise, we will not be able to compete with the barbarian army at all, and we can't shake the four empires, so we can only fight the Wuhua Empire, The idea of the Qingyuan Empire and some small empires, as long as these forces are taken, the strength of our Dragon Teng Empire will also rise to a peak, even if it is not as good as the four major empires, the difference is not so great, and even after driving away the barbarian army, the White Tiger Empire has to weigh its own strength if it wants to do it against us again!"
Beicang Ben's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but appreciate Nangong Ruoli's gaze, there was no doubt that Nangong Ruoli was farther away than he thought.
A sixteen-year-old boy would have such scheming and judgment, Rao is a genius who has seen countless people in Beicang, and he is also a genius who has seen this kind of demon for the first time.
With his excellent talent for combat, coupled with his keen insight and judgment, if he hadn't met him, he would definitely have thought that Nangong Ruoli was a thousand-year-old antique.
Seeing Beicang Ben's burning gaze, Nangong Ruoli smiled a little embarrassedly, and then said: "Father-in-law, if you look at me like this, I'm afraid it's not too much... It's not right!"
Beicang Ben couldn't help but give him a burst of chestnuts, and then laughed and said: "Stinky boy, you are so confident, I, an old guy, will be bold and presumptuous with you!"
