I looked at Leng Yan, there was no bloody blade and bloody stick, it was difficult for Dongzi to go with me. [Ranwen 123/\/%^.\] But the purpose of his stay with me is to protect, and it is impossible to be ruthless.
Leng Yan saw that I didn't speak for a few seconds, and continued to persuade: "If the Sword City is gone, it can be established, and in the future, the entire Xuan Realm, that place is not yours?" β
He really regarded me as a little white face, coveting the power of the empire, but he was wrong, what did my daughter-in-law and sister say in the past, it was not covetous, but loved her and wanted to help her.
But there is no need to explain these, because I believe that my daughter-in-law and sister can understand, as for what others think, let the world talk about it.
Dongzi has been silent, I know that he has a lot of things to say, and he doesn't say it now, just to not embarrass me. He saw that he wanted to leave, so he stood up and asked lightly: "Were the blood blades and blood sticks taken to the Southern Wilderness by my sister-in-law?" β
Leng Yan nodded.
I don't think it's surprising that the secrets of the two small worlds have been revealed, and there are five or six hundred thousand troops in the Southern Wilderness, and the elite of the empire is not there, so I am naturally worried that someone will take advantage of the situation.
And now as long as Nandou and I don't resist, the empire's losses will be great, and it may even lead to the failure of the southern expedition, but I can't do this kind of thing.
What I'm worried about is just the two small worlds in the blood blade and the blood stick, my father and second uncle told us not to lose them, which shows its uniqueness, and I have a feeling that those two small worlds are different from those in the fairy core.
Su Wei and the golden beast may be things in the small world, the ancient talismans on the blood blade and blood stick will not become human and alien beasts, their role is only to open the door of the small world.
My daughter-in-law and sister may want to control them, but I still believe that she will not harm me, but the world is about the future of the Su family, and there is no room for mistakes.
When I thought about this, Dongzi asked a few more questions, Leng Yan meant that Qin Yue captured the Southern Barbarians, and by the way, he would copy the back road of the Southern Wilderness army, and completely eliminate all the formed armies in the Southern Wilderness, otherwise the perennial turmoil would drag down the empire.
The strong are just nails, they can poke a gap, and if they want to continue to expand the gap, the sharp needle tip will become weak, so the army is always a sharp weapon in the hands of such a huge institution as the state.
If you lose your country, you must first destroy your army.
Dongzi talked to Leng Yan, and the atmosphere gradually eased, and the gold-armored guards all knew my identity, and they all relaxed their guards after seeing that they were not in tension.
But just as Leng Yan was about to sit down and talk to Dongzi, I suddenly opened the magic gate, Dongzi reacted extremely quickly, stepping through the stone slab of the main hall and shooting over, I turned around and entered the demon gate at the same time. (\\.52\\//)
When Leng Yan reacted, he couldn't catch us, but he didn't know that the broken demon gate would teleport to another time and space, and his eyebrows were released, and his hands were pinched in the air, wanting to break the demon gate to prevent us from leaving.
Under the terrifying divine power, the demon gate trembled, and it was about to shatter, and at the critical moment, the Eye of the Third World automatically opened, and the strange black light swept down, forcing back the golden armor guards. And at this moment, a big hand appeared in the black light, colliding with Leng Yan's fist, Leng Yan flew out upside down in an instant, the Xuanjia on his body shattered, and he coughed up blood.
I glanced back in horror to see that the light of the hand following the Eye of the Third World vanished, but in that moment, I recognized himβthe headless man.
Dongzi teleported out with me is fifty kilometers, smashed on a pile of rocks, fortunately he knew that I could not do accurate teleportation, the moment I came out, the Xuan lines under my feet flashed, and the entire stone pile was flattened, I didn't hit it after I came out, and the second time I opened the magic door, the power was released, and I teleported sixty kilometers in an instant.
After absorbing the Eye of the Third World, its teleportation range was increased several times. We didn't dare to delay on the way, and rushed back to Sword City in the afternoon.
Now the sword city is in a hurry, Dongzi and I just appeared, and when Jian Lao led the elder group to surround him for the first time, he retreated after seeing that it was us.
Mu Bai rushed to tell me the bad news, Nanban had 300,000 troops retreating, and on the way he met Nandou's expeditionary force, and a battle broke out, asking me if I wanted to go to support.
I also planned to gather the main people in the city and tell them the truth, and then send someone to inform Nandou and ask him what he meant, but I didn't think that the conflict had broken out.
In the war between monks, it may be too late to reinforce in the past, and there are no troops to reinforce in Sword City. Xia Li's more than 1,000 people want to control the defense of the city, and the guards need to defend the city, after all, there are still more than 200,000 troops stationed outside in the Southern Wilderness, and no one knows when they will attack the city.
But I was uneasy to see Nandou die in battle, not to mention that the Night Festival held a lot of secrets of the desolate lord, and nothing could happen yet.
I turned around and asked Dongzi, "How many wind wolves do you have in captivity in the Black Forest?" β
When my aunt left, she handed over the Black Forest to Dongzi, and there were many strange beasts in captivity, which were Dongzi's family property, and I usually didn't ask, but he occasionally mentioned it.
"More than 30,000!" Dongzi understood what I meant, and said, "I'll go and inform the Sword Elder now, and let the elder group bring five thousand guards and wind wolves over, how much can be saved." β
Dongzi listened to my question and guessed what I was going to do, and it was very reasonable. After Dongzi left, I summoned Jian Lao, Mu Bai, Xia Li, and more than a dozen important people to a meeting.
I didn't hide anything in the face of them, except for the small world, my daughter-in-law's sister's whole plan was spoken. Now Sword City has only two choices: first, send someone to negotiate with the Southern Wilderness and obtain the qualification of neutrality. Second, it acts as an imperial shield to block the Southern Wilderness from advancing into the hinterland of the Empire.
The will revealed in my words is to choose the second one, even if I am used by my daughter-in-law and sister, I don't want her to be attacked and put in danger.
Just making the second choice would mean tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of deaths, and my heart is not big enough to that extent.
Xia Li analyzed: "It's unlikely that they will be able to talk about it, they started to test last night, and they were killed by the high-voltage electric circle." β
The old general continued: "Sword City is a strategic position for both the Southern Wilderness and the Empire to attack and retreat, and the Imperial Army has broken through into the hinterland of the Southern Wilderness, and now the Southern Wilderness army has to retreat to worry about being attacked on its back. Therefore, they could only attack and use the means of encircling Wei to save Zhao to reduce the pressure on the retreating army. β
Jian Lao is a layman about war, and because of his conservative opinions and ideas, he has been vacated by Mu Bai and Dongzi for a long time, and now he is just listening silently, but his feelings for Jian Cheng are extremely deep, and he only spoke seriously at the end of the discussion: "If war cannot be avoided, then it can only be confrontation, but we can't act as pawns of the empire." β
Xia Li said: "War was originally a redistribution of wealth and power, in the first world war, Britain and France won the right to dominate the world, and in the second world, the United States became the center of power, and in every war, power will be alternated." We can't afford to miss this opportunity. β
Their meaning is no longer to let the sword city **, but to take advantage of the chaos to build the country, even if they resist, they must use the banner of the country, and convert the price they pay into their own prestige, so as to obtain opportunities for development.
I also thought about this problem on the way back, but ** will make my daughter-in-law and sister completely break with me, no**, Sword City paid hundreds of thousands of lives, and the fruits of victory belong to the empire, and if you fail, you are just cannon fodder.
I'm not keen on power, I just want a peaceful life, but my daughter-in-law's sister took too big a step and forced me too quickly.
Jian Lao pierced the layer of paper, and everyone's intentions were all biased towards the establishment of the country, and even Mu Bai began to persuade. I also know that if I don't build a country, let Jiancheng resist the Southern Wilderness, some people will say that I use the power of Jiancheng to help my wife, and over time, people's hearts will be scattered.
The current Sword City is not the original Sword City, it already has the system of the country, if the people's hearts are scattered, it will slowly collapse, and I will become the sinner referred to by Qianfu.
Dongzi arranged to come back, and when he heard the sound of our discussion, he said: "Brother Shi, I think everyone is right, we will build a country, but we will not encroach on the territory of the empire, and develop from the direction of the Black Forest!" β
My eyes lit up, after the founding of the country, what I was most worried about was the territorial issue, if I occupied the territory of the empire, conflicts would be inevitable, but if I didn't advance the territory, how could I develop with a city?
"The Black Forest stretches thousands of miles to the west, enough for us to develop, and it was not part of the empire in the first place." Dongzi said and took out a map of the Black Forest.
The crowd stopped discussing and gathered around to look at the map. The vast Black Forest is a natural barrier, and it is the best location for the country to start with, as for the terrifying number of alien beasts inside, since Dongzi dares to say it, there is a way to solve it.
I bit my lip and made up my mind to say: "Founding the country, send envoys to contact the army of the Southern Wilderness, and try to delay it until the Western Expeditionary Army returns." β
Hearing that the country was going to be founded, the most excited were Xia Li and others, who couldn't wait to discuss the matter of the country's name, and finally decided to call it the Dragon Empire. I naturally became a candidate for the king, but I refused on the spot, and if I really sat in this position, the distance between my daughter-in-law and my sister would widen in an instant.
And being in the center of the regime, there is something that makes me feel involuntarily, and I don't want to close a window on an already fragile relationship.
After repeated discussions, Dongzi became the first monarch of the Dragon Empire, and he didn't want to do it, but the position of power could not fall into the hands of others, and he could not shirk it.
The next day, the news broke, and the whole city rejoiced. Soon the news will reach the imperial capital and reach the ears of my daughter-in-law's sister, I don't know if she will be disheartened when she hears the news.
But I can't help it, in her game of power, if you want to have a foothold, you have to do this. The banner of the Dragon Empire floated at the head of the city in the afternoon, it was rather weird, two crossed swords, and in the middle was an automatic rifle, I think no one except the earthlings could know what it meant.
On the third day, the state was completed, and a 20-member think tank was formed. Interestingly, the Southern Wilderness army thought we were rebelling, and took the initiative to come and contact us, wanting to rebel.
Mu Bai will plan and drag down the time.
I watched them busy, sitting alone on the highest watchtower in the city, looking at the distant southern wilderness, I didn't want anything, I only wanted my daughter-in-law and sister, but she took a different path.
Thinking of the future, the tears in my eyes could no longer be controlled, and I made up my mind to go to the Southern Wilderness to find her, for the sake of the blood blade and the blood stick, and also for us.
