Chapter 842: Alliance Success

In terms of dealing with external troubles, according to some generals, they were not afraid that Lin Xuanzhong and them would be attacked by the enemy in the near future, but they were only worried that the Yang State and the Gu army would deliberately consume it, and the army on the western expedition had limited food and grass, and could not withstand the delay of the other party at all. If the two sides fought and let the night army lose some people, Lin Xuanzhong and the others would be able to hold out for a longer time, so as to wait for rescue.

Calculating the time, the 100,000 night army led by Bai Shuilian and set off from the mainland of the Night Country has already entered the territory of the Yang Kingdom, and the longer Lin Xuanzhong and the others hold on, the greater the possibility of waiting for rescue. However, there is one thing that cannot be left unconsidered, if Lin Xuanzhong himself can't delay the arrival of reinforcements. And during this period, Yang Guo and Gu Jun just trapped all the night troops in one place, did not attack, and kept dragging them out, so Lin Xuanzhong and they were likely to collapse because of various problems such as food and grass, which was what Zhao Xu and they were most worried about.

Previously, Zhao Xu had already passed the news of the Gu army in Yangguo to Lan Ce, if Lei Guo knew that the Gu army had secretly transferred 100,000 troops, and it could not be transferred back in a short time, he would attack Gu Guo on a large scale and put pressure on Gu Guo. Then the Gu army in Yang will definitely receive the news and retreat, according to this problem, it is impossible for the 100,000 Gu army to stay in Yang for too long, so those Gu army will be in a hurry to start a war with the night army.

Based on this consideration, Zhao Xu and the others were able to deduce that the other party was very likely to attack the Night Army, whether it was one or multiple times, as long as Lin Xuanzhong and the others were not defeated by the other party, the hope of being rescued would be greatly increased. After considering this, in terms of giving up the Wing Kingdom that he had worked so hard to fight, or giving up the 60,000 soldiers, Zhao Xu and those generals had obviously deviated from their ideas.

It is conceivable that if they gather the armies from all over the country now, and then go to the rescue of Lin Xuanzhong and the others, those resistance forces in the Wing Kingdom will inevitably take the opportunity to unite and develop into an incomprehensible force, and after knowing the situation of the Night Army, it is very likely that they will unite with the Yang Kingdom to deal with the Night Army together.

Now these people who can't see the overall situation clearly, just want to protect their own interests, or finally feel that loyalty to the Qingyuan Great Power makes them more likely to survive is very likely to put the night army in a dilemma, so according to the situation in the Wing Country, even if Zhao Xu gathers all his forces in one place, they don't dare to rush to save the night army that is deep in the lone army. Therefore, after most people felt that Lin Xuanzhong and they could hold on, they finally decided to solve the internal problems first, and they must suppress all the resistance forces as quickly as possible, and stabilize the situation in the Wing Country, if there are not enough manpower, they will be transferred from the Snow Country for the time being.

At present, the situation in the Snow Country is still stable, after being ruled by the Night Country, the situation in the Snow Country is even better than at the beginning, those former Snow Country people no longer think about betraying the Night Country, or after experiencing some things, many people have already understood that their real enemy is the Qingyuan Great Power of the Fish and Meat Kingdoms, and after having the same purpose as the Night Country, they are more in agreement with the rule of the Night Country. Although some people still want to rebel, the overall problem is not big.

After the meeting in Yicheng ended, Zhao Xu sent a messenger to inform Lin Xuanzhong that they insisted on waiting for support. At the same time, in the blue city of Kyoto, the country of purple clouds, thousands of miles away from Yangguo. The lords of the five countries and the important ministers of the court of the five countries gathered together, because they had been separated for too long, and the monarchs of the five countries who had been using the same surname were only strangers to each other.

At this moment, in a large conference hall, five lords of state are sitting around a round table, and directly behind them are the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Governments of various countries. In front of the five people is the jade seals of various countries, as well as an official document with the same content.

After the other four nations had proposed to establish an institution similar to the House of Elders, Lan Ze's reply was that they needed to surrender their military power. After consideration, the Sovereigns of the Four Kingdoms said that they could hand over most of their military power, but with a new condition, the combined forces of the Four Kingdoms could be used against the Night Kingdom, so that they would not have to worry about weakening their position after Lan Ze took power.

To put it simply, even if they want to form a five-nation alliance, they still have to ensure their future existence by mastering the army, and there is a feeling of not believing in Lan Ce.

In fact, based on the current situation, even if Lan Ce wants to weaken the four lords and the forces behind them, it will not be in a short period of time, but the requirements of the lords of the four countries are higher, and after losing the throne, they still have to sit on the status of the big clan in fact and in name, and have obvious intentions to interfere in politics, unlike the Zhao family and the Ni family, although they are powerful, they never dare to argue with the royal family.

In other words, once the two families do something that violates the law, they are very likely to be punished by the royal family, but the request of the lord of the four countries is precisely based on eliminating the possible punishment aspect. In this way, it not only means that the imperial power is despised, but even the stability after the alliance will be affected.

However, the requirements of the monarchs of the four countries are certainly high, but in a sense, it can only be regarded as a short-term limit, if Lan Ce can sit firmly in the position of the leader of the alliance and consolidate the rule of all the countries as soon as possible, the influence of the monarchs of these countries and the forces associated with them on the new imperial power will gradually be weakened, and in the end, the military aircraft organization they want to create will really evolve into the form of the clan elders, although they can still interfere in politics, but it also means that the new imperial power is stable enough.

After consideration, when agreeing to the new conditions of the four lords, Lan Ce also proposed a new condition. After the completion of the Five-Power Alliance, Lan Ce can recognize the status of the Imperial Family of the Four Kingdoms, but the Imperial Family of the Four Nations must accept the increase of the Allied States, and all countries willing to unite with the new countries can join the Alliance in the future, and the lords of the countries who join the Alliance have the same rights as the current monarchs of the Four Kingdoms.

The reason for this request is that Lan Ze's main purpose is twofold, one is to enhance the strength of the alliance, and the other is to weaken the rights of various royal families. It is extremely simple that Lan Ze's conditions would weaken the rights of earlier members, but the monarchs of the four countries are not short-sighted. Considering that the more countries they annex, the stronger their overall strength will be, based on the current situation and for long-term reasons, there is no reason why they should not accept Lanze's conditions.

When the monarchs of the four countries agreed one after another, this last five-nation alliance finally succeeded. Under the attention of Lan Ce and many people present, the lords of the four countries finally used their heirloom jade seals to stamp the official documents, and then destroyed the jade seals together, leaving only the heirloom jade seals of the night kingdom.

The actions of the monarchs of the four countries heralded the birth of a new nation, and after the alliance of the five nations, the new name of the night country would become "Big Blue".

When the news of the success of the Five Nations Alliance spread quickly, the citizens of the five countries were all boiling, and everyone was saying that the Great Blue Country, which had been divided for thousands of years, had returned, and countless people began to look through the history books to find out the grand occasion of the Great Blue Country as a medium-sized principality in the last era of great unification.

The success of the five-nation alliance not only means the revival of the big blue country, but also fits the current context. In troubled times, only one's own strength can make people feel stable.

It is worth mentioning that before the end of the Five Nations Alliance, Lan Ce received a military information from Zhao Xu. It was not difficult to annex the Snow Country at the beginning, but now there are problems everywhere in the annexation of the Wing Country, Lan Ce wants to blame Zhao Xu for doing things unfavorably, but now the more important thing is to rescue a night army trapped in the Yang Kingdom, the 60,000 elites who have worked hard to cultivate, and there is a possibility that the whole army will be wiped out before they can face the Qingyuan Great Power, which is naturally what Lan Ce does not want to see, of course, compared with the 60,000 soldiers, it is still a Wing Country of higher value, so Lan Ce's resolution coincides with the results of Zhao Xu's meeting, and everything is focused on taking into account the overall situation.

Expanding the territory is the premise for them to continue to grow, so they must stabilize the situation within the Wing Country as soon as possible, of course, Lan Ce will not forget the night army that is alone in the Yang Country. Before coming to participate in the Five Nations Alliance, Lan Ce had a face-to-face with Princess Lan Xin, who had just returned to China, and learned from Princess Lan Xin that there was an outstanding military genius in that army, who was highly valued by Zhao Xu and other commanders.

Now is the time of war, and the army is in need of talents, not to mention that Lin Xuanzhong is still so young, so when he received the information from Zhao Xu, the key meeting of the Five Nations Alliance had not yet begun, and Lan Ce asked the Thunder Emperor to send troops to attack the border of the Gu Kingdom in a big way, and not only that, but also specially asked the Ziyun Kingdom to send troops to assist.

Seeing that the Five Nations Alliance had reached the most critical moment, the Lord of the Thunder Country and the Lord of the Purple Cloud Country could not refuse Lan Ce's request, and the Emperor of Thunder ordered a strong attack on the Gu Army camp as soon as possible, making the situation in the western border of the Gu Kingdom critical.

After that, when the war between the Thunder Country and the Gu Country started in full swing, it had been ten days since Lin Xuanzhong fought with Yang Shifeng that day. Five days ago, when the Gu army and the Yang State personnel who had gathered a large number of people were preparing to attack the night army camp, and on the other side, when Lin Xuanzhong and the others were ready to take precautions, a sudden spring rain directly affected all the plans of both sides.

The spring rain had been raining for a full day, and the personnel of the Sword City and the Lockdown had just left the city and returned the same way, and they could not march at all. The situation was even worse for the valley troops stationed in the mountains, whose camp was low-lying and directly flooded by the rain that flowed in all directions. Not to mention leaving the camp to crusade against the night army, it is a problem for the Gu army to withdraw to the country in time after the Gu army.

On the third day after the rain stopped, the Gu army received the news from the Gu Emperor that the troops had been withdrawn, and the men leading the troops all regretted that they had not been able to attack the camp of the night army before the rain, otherwise even if they were defeated in the end, it would still be better to go back with the current result. It took more than half a month, and as a result, it also affected the situation and safety of the country, and General Zhang and many high-ranking members of the Gu army only felt that they could not escape the blame for their deaths.
